HCB Chapter 111: The Treacherous Minister Gao Qiu
Chapter 111: The Treacherous Minister Gao Qiu
"Third Young Master! Please show mercy!" Wang Defu pleaded.
Seeing Wang Defu blocking me, I was too lazy to fight him anymore and just ordered, "Go down! Let me be quiet for a while!"
In fact, in my previous life, my master always told me that I was not suitable to be a god. I asked my master why. My master said that those who want to become gods must cut off their seven emotions and six desires, and put the overall situation first. But I always can't let go of the common people and it's easy to lose the big picture because of the small things. Maybe it's hard to change my nature. I can't do what those people say about not paying attention to small details when achieving great things. I think every life should be respected. What's the good of fighting and killing?
Although those soldiers of the Suzaku Legion are not my direct descendants, since my grandfather let me lead them, I still want to bring them back intact. It's all Xuanyuan Jingcheng's fault. If you want credit, tell me. It's okay for me to give him more.
At the same time, the Ninth Princess was furious when she saw the battle report handed over by her subordinates.
"Today's battle was the most humiliating battle for Juana Navarra. My 300,000-man army was captured by only 10,000 people, and so many centurions were killed or injured!"
The generals off the field were silent, like primary school students being scolded.
"Report! His Majesty has issued an order!"
"Your Highness Juana Navarra receives the order!"
"Juana Navarra has been unable to conquer the country for a long time and has wasted a lot of money and manpower. Now, I have specially authorized the eldest prince Lincoln Navarra to take over all military affairs from the ninth princess."
"My lord, accept the order!"
"Ninth sister! Long time no see. You have been fighting for so long but have not been able to conquer Qi. Father feels that you are not capable enough and sends me to command military affairs. Leave the rest to me!" The eldest prince Lincoln walked in from outside and said with a smile.
The Ninth Princess suppressed her dissatisfaction and asked, "Brother! Why do you suddenly want to fight? I remember that you like to write poetry, don't you?"
In fact, the eldest prince Lincoln is a complete jerk who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun. He wouldn't even dare to kill a chicken if given a knife, so the ninth princess asked.
"Oh! It was Gao Qiu who came back from Qin who gave me the suggestion. He said Qi was weak and easy to defeat and that there was a beautiful princess named Britney in Qi. I would be so happy if I could get her!" Brainless Lincoln spoke the truth directly.
"Oh! Then I will wish you a successful battle here!" After saying that, the Ninth Princess left with her Golden Leopard Cavalry.
So far my plan has been perfectly realized.
In fact, the story dates back to the second day after I returned to Qin. After I persuaded His Majesty, I immediately ran to meet the ambassador of Chu.
"Who are you? What do you want from me?" Gao Qiu asked.
"I am Xuanyuan Qingyun, the Lord of Plato. I wonder if you are familiar with this place?" I said with a smile.
"I'm not familiar with it and have never been there. Go away and don't disturb my rest!"
"Oh? Is that so? I have a piece of evidence that you have been selling palace items privately. Since you said you have never been there, I must have made a mistake!"
"Yes! Yes! You made a mistake!" Gao Qiu said quickly.
"If that's the case, I'll hand these things over to the King of Chu. I hope he can find a traitor!"
Gao Qiu was shocked when he heard this. He quickly stopped me and said, "Sir, let's talk it over! Let's talk it over!"
"Yeah! That's right! Should we go in and talk or..."
"Okay! It's best to talk inside! Please come in, sir!"
Gao Qiu then invited me into the house. He told his men to guard the door and then made me a cup of tea. He smiled and said, "Sir, if you have something to say, please speak directly! Don't play tricks on me!"
