Chapter 173: Breaking off the Engagement! Arrogant Chu Lushan! (13)

Yongzhou, Jincheng.

This brothel, which should have been the busiest, is now eerily quiet!
Li Changan is a prince, but he serves as a prince of Beiliang. It is really too cheap.

Everyone knows that the King of Tang was a memorial archway erected by the previous emperor.

But the King of Tang has no power, compared with other vassal kings, and ordinary big families cannot afford to offend him.

So, when people heard that Xu Weixiong was coming, no one dared to say anything.

The Beiliang Palace has become more and more arrogant in recent years, especially after the death of the old emperor Zhao Li.

The Xu family actually dared to come and cancel the marriage arranged by the late emperor, which shows that Xu Xiao has an extraordinary status.

Xu Wei was an outstanding writer and had just started to make his mark, but Chu Lushan was notorious throughout the world.

Yongzhou is adjacent to the three states of Beiliang, and the people are well-known for this man!
More and more people heard the news, and discussions began to rise.

"One of Xu Xiao's six adopted sons, the hawk and dog among the one tiger, two bears and three dogs!"

"This man treats human life as worthless, and he especially enjoys torturing and killing women!"

"When he heard that a beautiful woman had given birth, he wanted to kidnap her and bring her to your house to drink her milk!"

"If the milk is good, I'll give you a reward of silver!
If it doesn't taste good, he will cut off two pieces of your breast!"

"They usually rob women and kill people without blinking an eye!"

……

At this moment, several armored soldiers stepped into the brothel!
One of the officers strode into the room and went straight towards Li Changan.

"Your Highness, the Second Princess of Beiliang has entered the city!"

"Governor Tian, ​​please go back to your residence. Don't be impolite!"

Tian Zong, the governor of Yongzhou, was a subordinate of Gu Jiantang and a hero in destroying the Southern Tang.

After the unification of the country, he was arranged by the court to be in Yongzhou, and he was still required to monitor Beiliang nearby.

Jincheng is the base camp of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, and Li Changan has a firm grasp on all of Tian Zong's tricks.

Therefore, all the officials in the governor's office were very respectful to Li Changan.

Li Changan never cared about how Tian Zong monitored Beiliang.

However, when Tian Zong reported Li Changan's performance to the court, it needed to be reviewed privately by Li Changan.

"Go back and tell Lord Tian that I know about this matter."

"Let Master Tian do his job well and don't worry too much."

The officer didn't ask any more questions and turned and left immediately.

Li Changan said to the dancers, "Don't stop!"

"Keep playing music, keep dancing!"

After hearing Li Changan's order, the noise in the brothel gradually returned.

The musicians placed their bare hands on the strings of the zither, and the dancers slowly raised their jade feet above their heads.

On Jincheng Street.

The children sang nursery rhymes happily and chased each other.

"Peaches and plums will win the world!"

The prophecy is too explicit, it means that someone with the surname Li will rule the world.

There is no important person with the surname Li in Jincheng, so this statement is obviously referring to Li Changan.

Xu Weixiong, who had just entered the city, couldn't help but frown after hearing this.

"Someone wants to kill Li Changan."

Not far from Xu Weixiong was a middle-aged man who was as fat as a ball.

Chu Lushan, nicknamed Lu Qiuer.

He held the rank of General Qianniu Longwu, a third-rank official, and weighed three hundred kilograms.

Chu Lushan said in a rough voice, "Princess, this matter..."

He had just opened his mouth when he was interrupted by the stern Xu Weixiong!
"you shut up!"

From his words, it seemed that he didn't want to talk to Chu Lushan at all.

Chu Lushan acted out of line and was too flattering, so he was not well-received by the upper class of Northern Liang.

Chen Zhibao, who is also Xu Xiao's adopted son, once publicly stated that he wanted to set Lu Qiu'er on fire!

Chu Lushan was in charge of Beiliang's intelligence agency and knew that there were many forces in Yongzhou that opposed Beiliang.

After entering Yongzhou, he did several big things, which of course involved some innocent women.

As a woman, Xu Weixiong naturally had no good feelings towards Chu Lushan.

She turned to the other side and asked, "Hong Musk, tell me."

The fourteen-year-old Hongshe had just mastered martial arts and was sent by Fushuifang to a killer organization in the underworld for training. He was known as Jinshe in the underworld.

"Second Miss, this is a prophecy released by Zhao Gou's spy. The new emperor wants to reduce the power of the princes, and he intends to start with the King of Tang."

"These prophecies are just the right way to accuse him of having evil intentions and intending to restore the country, and then strip him of his title."

"So, if you ask me, why are you canceling this marriage? Once he is stripped of his title, he might even lose his life."

Hongshe is the niece of the mayor of Dunhuang City in Beimang. She came to the Beiliang Palace as a hostage. Dunhuang City is located on the edge of Beimang and was able to gain a foothold thanks to the protection of Beiliang.

Hongshe has a graceful figure, fair skin, a natural fragrance and elegant manners. She was the maid who warmed the bed chosen by the prince when Wu Su was still alive.

In Xu Xiao's plan, Hong She was to become Xu Fengnian's maid, and also a death warrior to protect Xu Fengnian.

However, Xu Fengnian cannot know all this, so Hong She must practice martial arts and killing techniques before he can be with Xu Fengnian.

Hongshe is now in the stage of practicing martial arts and being a killer.

If nothing unexpected happens, Hongshe will become Xu Fengnian's bed-warming maid and then be renamed Hongshu.

Hearing Hongshe's words, Xu Weixiong could only force a smile.

I can't tell Hongshe that this is because Xu Fengnian can't swallow this.

"Hong Musk, reducing the fiefdom has nothing to do with marriage. It is also possible to demote Li Changan to a duke or marquis, and then send him to the Beiliang Palace to be a county horse."

"We have dealt with this cheap prince and also disgraced the Beiliang Palace. This is a plan that kills two birds with one stone."

One hundred Beiliang cavalrymen marched into the city in a mighty force, attracting a lot of onlookers.

In the teahouse and in front of the stalls, there was an endless stream of discussions.

Princess Beiliang has come in person!

Chu Lushan, who is notorious for his evil deeds, is here too!

"We are all princes, but the King of Beiliang doesn't even give the King of Tang any face."

"The second princess of Beiliang is really pretty. It's such a pity to cancel the engagement!"

In Jincheng, many people were discussing Li Changan.

There are even more people who curse Chu Lushan and are disgusted with Beiliang!

"As soon as the butcher Chu Lushan entered Yongzhou, he slaughtered more than a thousand people from five families on the pretext of colluding with bandits!"

"Damn it, what's the point of colluding with bandits? It's just an excuse for making trouble!"

"Aren't those five families the most powerful families that oppose the Xu family?"

"The Chu guy is so reckless that Governor Tian doesn't even dare to fart!"

Speaking of Chu Lushan, various news about the past few days have been summarized one after another.

"This man has been in Yongzhou for half a month, and several beautiful ladies from noble families have been killed!"

"When one of them was sent back to his family alive, he had his breast cut off!"

"Two days ago in Dingxiang County, a fair-skinned and beautiful young lady was dragged into that beast's carriage!"

"After an incense stick of time, the dishevelled corpse was thrown down!"

"What a beast!"

On that day in Jincheng, wherever people gathered, they were denouncing Chu Lushan.

However, these people can only talk about it. Who dares to offend Beiliang?
"Chu Lushan is a man of great military achievements. He blocked eleven swords on the battlefield while carrying Xu Xiao on his back!"

"So, after Xu Xiao was crowned king, he promised his adopted son Chu Lushan that he could commit eleven capital crimes but not die!"

"Moreover, this Chu Lushan gave all his beautiful wives and concubines to sleep with Xu Fengnian, the prince of Beiliang!"

"So, with Xu Xiao protecting him above and the prince shielding him below, there is nothing he dare not do!"

In Meixianyuan.

The second guard of Ba Linglong reported the latest news.

"Your Highness, Xu Weixiong and Chu Lushan have already entered the palace!"

"Tian Zong has also come to the palace, and the two sides have already started chatting. Eunuch Cao is taking care of him in the palace."

Li Changan said calmly, "I know, let's explore further." In fact, Li Changan had learned the news as early as when Xu Weixiong and Chu Lushan were preparing to set off.

At the same time, he was also very clear that the new emperor was going to use him as a target to reduce the power of the feudal lords.

However, Li Changan knew better that the new emperor was more wary of Xu Xiao than a small fry like himself.

Therefore, Chu Lushan's coming to Jincheng was a good opportunity.

Li Changan wanted to take this opportunity to deal with Chu Lushan.

Firstly, he hated this man very much and didn't want to pamper this villain with no bottom line.

Secondly, over the years, no one has dared to openly oppose the Beiliang Palace.

But Li Changan knew that if anyone went against the Beiliang Palace, the imperial court would definitely support them.

Now is a good opportunity to take advantage of the situation between Li Yang and Bei Liang and strengthen yourself.

As a prince, Li Changan can do many things with justification.

Moreover, this identity will help him develop his own power, enhance his authority and accumulate wealth.

Then the system rewards points, which can strengthen your power and rise step by step.

Therefore, taking action against Chu Lushan now will help to preserve the title of King of Tang.

The matter of Xu Weixiong coming to cancel the engagement must be made a big deal, otherwise Chu Lushan will not be able to leave alive.

Li Changan wants to let Emperor Liyang know that King Tang is of great use and cannot be removed!
Tang Palace.

The person Tian Zong sent to invite Li Changan came back, and the officer reported the situation to Tian Zong with an embarrassed look.

"Sir Tian, ​​His Royal Highness the Prince of Tang is having fun in the brothel, and he said he knows about this."

When Chu Lushan heard this, he became furious!

"Got it? What do you mean got it?"

"There's no time when we can't go to the brothel!"

"But the princess came to cancel the engagement, and he ran off to a brothel!"

"What do you mean? Do you look down on the Beiliang Palace?"

Cao Zhengchun, a master of Finger-Xuan, pretended not to know martial arts and was watching Chu Lushan's rage with cold eyes.

Chu Lushan was furious and paced back and forth in the lobby of the palace, cursing non-stop!

"A useless prince! And he's so arrogant!"

"I'll break his legs in a minute!"

"Now that you know, why don't you just come back?"

"Didn't you tell him that Grandpa is here too?"

Cao Zhengchun narrowed his eyes and rolled his eyes hundreds of times in his heart.

This fat guy is only a second-grade one.

If the prince had not forbidden me to act rashly, I would have killed you, you bastard, with just one finger.

He said indifferently, "General Chu, the princess came to cancel the engagement today without notifying us in advance."

"It's natural for young people to visit brothels, but I, an old slave, can't even visit them if I want to."

Upon hearing Cao Zhengchun's words, Chu Lushan's face jumped violently a few times!

"Fuck your human nature!"

"Are you saying that the princess came at the wrong time?"

"I am the one speaking, you old thing don't have the right to speak!"

As he spoke, a palm was raised!
It seemed that the slap was about to land on Cao Zhengchun’s face!

Cao Zhengchun has already made up his mind that if you, Chu Lushan, dare to slap me, he will secretly castrate you at night.

The governor Tian Zong's face was gloomy and he actually hoped that Chu Lushan would make a big deal out of it.

It would be fine if I killed Li Changan in anger.

News came from the court that King Xu Xiao of Beiliang was striving for hereditary succession.

If Chu Lushan openly killed Li Changan, Xu Xiao would have a hard time explaining himself to the court.

What's more, Li Changan knew a lot of things about Tian Zong, and Tian Zong dreamed of killing Li Changan.

At this moment, a slender figure suddenly floated over!
Xu Weixiong's hand gently blocked Chu Lushan's slap.

"Chu Lushan, don't cause trouble!"

"I came here today without informing the Tang Palace in advance. We were the first to be rude."

Chu Lushan chuckled and his expression immediately became flattering.

"Princess, what is rude or not?"

"You are here to give Li Changan enough face!"

"The prince has ordered that I will be fully responsible for cancelling the engagement!"

"Just wait and see!"

Xu Weixiong, who was only sixteen years old, had already received complete training as a death warrior.

But now, she has not taken over too many affairs of Beiliang.

This time, when they came to cancel the engagement, all matters, big and small, were handled by Chu Lushan.

Deliberately bringing the cavalry through the city so that everyone knew about it was probably Xu Fengnian's idea.

Everyone in Beiliang knows that Chu Lushan is Xu Fengnian’s loyal dog.

Chu Lushan pulled over a tall and strong captain beside him and patted him on the shoulder.

"Captain Zhou, bring Li Changan here!"

"If you can't do it, don't even come back!"

Captain Zhou obeyed the order loudly, then led a dozen Beiliang soldiers out of the palace.

In Meixianyuan.

Li Changan was thinking about how to torture Chu Lushan so that he would get the punishment he deserved.

At this moment, a roar suddenly erupted at the gate of Meixianyuan!

"Where is Li Changan?"

"You, a slave of a conquered nation, dare to make our princess wait for you!"

"Get out of here right now and go back to the palace to cancel the engagement!"

The man who came was a nine-foot-tall man with broad shoulders and a big waist, and a Northern Liang sword on his hip!

Li Changan just took a glance and found that this person was not Chu Lushan.

Because of his insufficient tonnage and low official rank, he was only a captain.

How could the people in the brothel dare to provoke the Northern Liang army? Someone immediately told the captain about Li Changan's location.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Captain Zhou walked up to the third floor step by step.

He came into the room, pointed at Li Changan's nose and cursed!
"Li Changan, you loser, follow me!"

Li Changan didn't even move his butt, nor did he raise his eyelids.

But his words were without any emotion and were quite majestic.

"Your Majesty!"

Li Changan's performance today shocked the regular customers of the brothel and they were at a loss for words!
Li Changan is always low-key, what happened today?

Li Changan made the famous Beiliang soldier kneel down as soon as he opened his mouth!
King Xu Xiao of Beiliang commands an army of 350,000!

He destroyed six of the eight kingdoms in the Spring and Autumn Period and killed four emperors!
Now he holds the position of Grand Pillar of the State, and is granted three states: Lingzhou, Youzhou, and Liangzhou!
Beiliang, the country within the country of the Liyang Dynasty!

Meixianyuan was crowded with people, hundreds of them were craning their necks to look at Li Changan!

Captain Zhou of the Northern Liang Army had also read the intelligence from the Fushuifang and knew that Li Changan was not outstanding.

He snorted coldly, then said sternly, "Li Changan..."

But as soon as he opened his mouth, he was stopped by Li Changan!
"Shut up!"

The entire brothel could hear this sound clearly!
The voice was still Li Changan’s voice!
But he is very confident and full of energy, which is ear-shaking!

The authority in his tone didn't even seem like something a young man could produce.

"Bastard thing!"

"When you met Xu Xiao, did you also call him by his name?"

"Didn't Xu Xiao teach you that you, at your level, should kneel when meeting the prince of this dynasty?"
