Chapter 1953 Loyal and Good Character

In the eyes of many Zhuang people, being an envoy to Sheng State is really a tough job.

Since the Yellow River Meeting in the 3919th year of the Dao Calendar, the relationship between the two countries has been very tense.

Especially this time, the envoy is Lin Zhengren, who defeated Jiang Limeng. It is almost imaginable what kind of cold reception he will suffer.

Everyone avoided the recruitment of the envoy team.

In the end, it was the prime minister who forced a team of people from the Baiyu Army.

But for Lin Zhengren, being an envoy to Sheng State was not difficult.

How could it be considered a trouble to deal with those self-righteous young men and women?

It's nothing more than swallowing some sarcasm and performing some regretful sincerity.

To put it bluntly, how could he take these ignorant greenhouse flowers to heart?

Especially that Qi Ya. His father is dead, and he doesn't think about how to work hard to cultivate and revive the family reputation, but he is obsessed with Jiang Limeng and jealousy.

How could Jiang Limeng lack people who wag their tails and seek pleasure?

On the contrary, people like Sheng Xuehuai and Jiang Limeng, who he really feared, would not deliberately embarrass him.

If he really had to represent the Zhuang Kingdom on this mission, seeing Sheng Xuehuai's cold face, he would just burn incense for himself, nothing else to say.

The theme of this mission, "Zhuang Sheng Taoism Exchange", is actually not as ridiculous as Qi Ya and others ridiculed. Zhuang Guo's Taoism system is based on Yujing Mountain, and Sheng Guo's Taoism system is mainly based on Penglai Island. There are many places for the two sides to communicate.

Besides, Zhuang Guo has won a lot in recent national wars. What reason does Sheng Guo have to look down on it?

What is the real dilemma?

It is the hidden mission of the Zhuang Guo Emperor under this mission.

The great and wise Zhuang Emperor actually sent him, Lin Zhengren, such a peerless loyal minister, to take the lead in setting up a plan to deal with Jiang Wang!

Do you think the gap between Wailou Realm and Shenlin Realm is too small?

Or do you think Jiang Wang is not fierce enough in the Qixia battlefield, not strong enough in the demon world, and not cruel enough in the world of confusion?

What are you talking about? It's foolproof, good plans will come true. What are you promising the position of vice prime minister, the chance of divine presence.

The emperor is clearly forcing loyal people to die!

How can Lin Zhengren obey such a rebellious fate?

"First of all, I don't hate you. I killed my whole family myself, and I have no feelings for my brother. I really can't find a reason to hate you. Although you thought about killing me, you didn't kill me after all."

Lin Zhengren analyzed very seriously: "You shouldn't hate me either.

"It was my irresponsible clan member Lin Zhenglun who was ungrateful and abandoned. It was my useless brother Lin Zhengli who was lustful and bullied the clan members. It has nothing to do with me!

"And they all died in my hands. From this perspective, I helped you get revenge. They deserved to die, and we will write off our grievances.

"Although I was forced by Du Ruhui to ambush you outside the city of Bushu, it didn't succeed after all. Even if Du Guoxiang hadn't left in time, you would have dug three feet into the ground to find me and kill me. "

He made so much sense that Jiang Wang couldn't find any rebuttal for a moment.

At this time, Lin Zhengren had retracted his ghost eyes, and he looked so gentle and dignified, and said: "Please allow me to recite the scriptures again. These days, I have been reciting scriptures all night long. If I suddenly stop, they will definitely suspect something. "

It turns out that reciting scriptures is his way of warning! It is really a simple but difficult method to deal with. This person is really thoughtful.

Jiang Wang couldn't help but think of Zhong Xuansheng's analysis-"If he is really a smart man, he will choose to cooperate with you the moment Zhuang Gaoxian decided to send him to Shengguo!"

It turned out to be perfect!

Lin Zhengren has started to recite scriptures and continued his reading voice, but this does not affect his conversation with Jiang Wang: "Brother Jiang, can you show up and see me? Zhengren sincerely expressed this heart, why don't we sit down and reminisce slowly? "

Jiang Wang closed the door casually, and also let Lin Zhengren's sight return, and then sat down opposite Lin Zhengren.

The two people who were also born in Qinghe County of Zhuang State met again in the Waiyi Hall of Sheng State.

Wangjiang City and Fenglin City can be regarded as neighbors, but they are indeed people on two different roads. Even if there was no Song Ruyi's incident and no white bones, they should have fought in the officialdom of Zhuang State in the future...

It is really a proud thing in life to meet enemies in a foreign land.

"Senior Brother Jiang is still as charming as ever!" Lin Zhengren smiled on his face, and his tone was nostalgic and sincere.

Jiang Wang thought that they used to be very good.

"You can see my charm even with a mask on." Jiang Wang raised his eyes slightly.

Lin Zhengren said solemnly: "The quality of jade is not its sheen. Although you don't show your true face, how many people in the world can match your demeanor in every move?"

Jiang Wang smiled: "Honesty is your virtue. ”

Lin Zhengren was still very serious: "Junior brother, I just can't hide my true feelings, I'm sorry to make you laugh."

Jiang Wang said meaningfully: "I remember that when you hated me so much and wanted to kill me, you were also very honest."

Lin Zhengren sat in a relaxed posture, perhaps because he knew that resistance was useless, or perhaps because he was confident that he would not be killed.

He said: "I swear that I have never taken the initiative to seek revenge on Senior Brother Jiang. Every time it was Du Ruhui who forced me to act. I hate you only because they need me to hate you. I am just a knife. The one who really wants to harm Senior Brother is Emperor Zhuang and Prime Minister Du. The thief hurts people with a knife. Is it the knife's fault? The thief's fault?"

His tone was very serious: "I can also be Senior Brother Jiang's knife."

"Your knife hurts others and yourself."

"The strong hold it themselves."

Jiang Wang discovered that although Lin Zhengren in front of him showed weakness, although he surrendered, and although he begged for surrender, there was never any real fear in his eyes.

He's just dealing with danger, his way.

Jiang Wang said slowly: "To save your life, do you only think of these reasons?"

Lin Zhengren was sitting upright, as if he was stating his ideals, rather than facing the test of life and death: "I live in Sheng Foreign Funeral Parlor, I represent Zhuang State as an envoy to Sheng State, and I am Zhuang State's number one genius. No matter for whatever reason , I can't die here. If I die here, Sheng Guo must give an explanation. Jiang Ruyong, Meng Wuya, and even Li Yuanshe will take action.

"I believe in Senior Brother Jiang's strength. But as soon as the chanting here stops, the people I brought will immediately notice the problem. At most, my death will be discovered in half a quarter of an hour, and the whole city will be under martial law. .

"If Senior Brother Jiang can solve this problem, then there is another problem - it is only half an hour before dawn, and in half an hour, I will go to the Shengguo Dynasty Meeting. In other words, you need to arrive within half an hour. Inside, it was impossible to escape Shengguo silently.

"If Senior Brother Jiang's friends in Sheng Kingdom can still help you do this, then there is another problem - when I set out, Emperor Zhuang planted a shackle on me in the name of protecting the envoy. Soul rope, once I encounter danger, the soul binding rope will mark the person..."

Lin Zhengren tilted his head, touched a bulge on his neck with his fingers, and said with a smile: "Why don't Senior Brother Jiang take a look first and see if he can get rid of it? As you can imagine, this soul-binding rope is still there. Thousands of miles away, kill my ability to prevent me from escaping from the control of Dazhuang Shengmingzi."

Jiang Wang did not try rashly, but said calmly: "Aren't you the most talented person in the Zhuang Kingdom and the most loyal minister of Zhuang Ting? Why does Zhuang Gaoxian still distrust you so much?"

"I have done a lot of things over the years." Lin Zhengren smiled: "It's not that he doesn't trust me, he doesn't trust anyone."

Jiang Wang looked at the person in front of him.

He seemed to have stated all the conditions for his life-saving, revealed the vital points, and let the knife be used, which seemed to be very sincere.

But Jiang Wang understood that Lin Zhengren must have some unsaid means.

"Are you sure I will come to kill you tonight?" Jiang Wang asked.

Lin Zhengren said: "I have no idea that you are in Shengguo, let alone that you are coming to see me tonight. I am just sure that if someone comes to kill me in this situation and makes me unable to resist, that person must be you."

Jiang Wang said nothing.

Lin Zhengren then added: "You must have spies in Zhuang State. As smart as you are, you must have guessed that my mission this time is a move by Emperor Zhuang against you. Even if you don't come to Sheng State, after that I will also go to Xiang Country. I think there will be many opportunities for us to meet again, and I am just preparing for it every day.”

Jiang Wang's eyes calmly swept across the many hidden restrictions set up in the room: "You are not sure that I will come, so you have prepared so many life-saving means, and do you do this every day?"

Lin Zhengren only said: "I am really afraid of death if I make Senior Brother Jiang laugh."

"Why wouldn't someone else come to kill you?" Jiang Wang asked again.

Lin Zhengren said: "Because I never take the initiative to make enemies with others, and I never put myself in danger. If I accidentally make enemies, I will resolve them quickly, and if I accidentally enter a dangerous situation, I will leave quickly. This time is the only exception. I I know that no matter how many escape methods I prepare, I may not be able to avoid death in the end, because I am facing Senior Brother Jiang, and His Majesty, the Emperor to whom I am loyal, personally sent me out."

Jiang Wang naturally wouldn't believe how loyal Lin Zhengren was to Zhuang Gaoxian, and Zhuang Gaoxian himself wouldn't believe it either. But I do have a deep understanding of Lin Zhengren's caution, ruthlessness, and insidiousness.

If you want to kill him, how can you escape intact? How can we peel off these life-saving conditions that have been laid out in the open and those that have not yet been exposed?

If we don't kill him, what should we do with this person?

Since his arrival, I have never thought that an outer monk could be so troublesome!

Lin Zhengren added: "Those things I just said...if you have a way to deal with them, then you can kill me. But even if you can solve those problems perfectly, I do not recommend you to do so."

"Oh?" Jiang Wang stared at him.

"Because I'm useful." Lin Zhengren emphasized: "I can play a very important role in the game between you and Zhuang Gaoxian. If you kill me, he will send a second person. I am not important. . If you stay with me, you will have a chance to predict his methods."

Jiang Wang said: "Continue."

Compared to Senior Brother Jiang's inhumanity, Junior Brother Lin seemed polite and polite: "I am on an envoy on behalf of Zhuang State this time, Sheng State is only the first stop, and Xiang State is only one of the many Taoist kingdoms I want to visit.

"The name of the visit is 'Taoist exchange', but the core of the mission's mission is to make good friends with the Taoist countries I want to visit and seek a higher status in the Taoist countries. Prime Minister Du did a lot of homework in the early stage and listed Many trading plans have been made. Once the connection of interests is reached, Zhuang's position in the Western Region will be more stable, and it will be more difficult for you to enter the Zhuang for revenge in the future.

"As for me, under the mission of the mission, my core task is to deal with you. Don't you want to know how Zhuang Tianzi plans you? And... what exactly gave him the support to make him feel that it was just a mere outer building? How can Lin Zhengren, who is in such a state, be able to deal with you?"

Jiang Wang was indeed interested: "Tell me about it."

Lin Zhengren spread his hands: "I don't know either."

"Really?" Jiang Wang's eyes began to look dangerous.

Lin Zhengren hurriedly explained: "With Emperor Zhuang's suspicion, how can he trust me? How can he let me know the whole story if he can let me use the means to kill you?"

"What you said makes sense...then where is your role?"

"At least as the executor of the plan, or a certain link in the execution of the plan, I can help you figure out his layout. At the very least, I can help you avoid some dangers."

"for example?"

"For example, when I am on my mission to various countries this time, the real threat to you should be in the Xiang Kingdom. According to Zhuang Gaoxian's order, I will do everything possible to lure you away from Xingyue Plains when I get there. But after that What will happen, I don’t know yet.”

Xiang Kingdom is right next to Xingyueyuan, which is indeed an ideal place. If Lin Zhengren was sent as an envoy to Xiang State on behalf of Zhuang State, it was hard for him not to know about it while he was in seclusion at Bai Yujing Restaurant.

"How do you plan to lure me away from Xingyueyuan?" Jiang Wang asked.

Lin Zhengren's expression became very cautious: "I need to declare to you first that these are Emperor Zhuang's ideas. I am just an executor."

Jiang Wang said quietly: "But it doesn't matter."

"I will hold a literary meeting in Xiang Kingdom to discuss the literary significance of the inscriptions on the Maplewood City Creature Stele, to strengthen Emperor Zhuang's great achievements in the Maplewood City disaster, and to guide and spread your relationship with the White Bone Dao." Lin Zhengren said: "If you haven't come to me yet, I will hold another ceremony to pay homage to the victims of Maplewood City. The names highlighted in the memorial ceremony are all close to you..."

Jiang Wang's eyes were neither happy nor sad: "Is that all?"

Lin Zhengren lowered his eyebrows and said in an imperceptible voice: "If all else fails, Zhuang Gaoxian has another idea - your aunt's remains have been revealed..."

When Jiang Wang struck out with his sword to seek justice for Aunt Song, it ended with Lin Zhengren palming Lin Zhenglun to death. Justice should be sought from Lin Zhengli, but he couldn't do it at that time.

After Aunt Song died, she was buried in the Lin cemetery and was buried in the name of Lin Zhenglun's wife.

Jiang Wang did not disturb the deceased at that time. Moreover, Aunt Song has remarried and it is not appropriate to be buried back in Fengxi.

did not expect……

The wise king and wise ministers of Zhuang State are really good at it.

Although the mask hid Jiang Wang's expression, this silence especially made Lin Zhengren uneasy. He gritted his teeth and cursed angrily: "Zhuang Gao has a human face and a beast's heart. He is in vain to be the king of the country. He is really shameless!"

Jiang Wang's voice was calm: "Leave it to me."

"Hey, okay." Lin Zhengren stood up and carefully held out an iron box.

Jiang Wang glanced at it and motioned with his eyes to put it on the table.

Lin Zhengren put the iron box on the table next to him and reminded him sincerely: "This iron box was given to me by Du Guoxiang. There may be some tricks on it. Senior Brother Jiang should be careful not to take it away directly."

If Jiang Wang hadn't been so vigilant, I don't know if he would have given this reminder.

"Open it and take a look." Jiang Wang said.

Lin Zhengren did a magic trick and slowly opened the iron box.

There is indeed a skeleton stacked in the iron box.

Jiang Wang took a quiet look. The golden, red and white flames passed by, and the bones were already empty. The last remnant of Aunt Song in this world has returned to the Origin Sea.

"Close it." Jiang Wang's voice was emotionless: "You can find a replacement skeleton later."

Lin Zhengren closed the iron box honestly without saying a word.

"What is Zhuang Gaoxian going to do after you catch me?" Jiang Wang said slowly: "It won't be to simply find a real person to ambush me next to you, right? As soon as I kill you, I will protect the envoys of Zhuang State. Kill me in the name of Dao Zongguo? Master Jingguo has such a right."

Lin Zhengren said seriously: "Of course this is also a way, but I don't think he will underestimate you so much."

"What other methods do you think he has?" Jiang Wang asked.

Lin Zhengren's heart almost reached his throat: "I still need some time to verify."

Then he heard this sentence - "Okay, I'll give you time."

I can no longer see that person in front of me.

That sentence also dissipated.

The room was still the same room, empty, as if nothing had happened.

Lin Zhengren slowly leaned back on the chair.

He knew that he had once again escaped a certain death situation!

And the chanting continues——

"A single mind produces righteous concentration, and all phenomena will naturally occur. Divide the five qi into each direction, and the five qi will give birth to a spirit."

"One can understand changes and refine the original truth. The original truth has no form, neither existence nor nothingness..."
