Chapter 491 Desire for Power
Perhaps due to the butterfly effect of Zhou Lai's time travel, the Wu Dynasty royal family in this world is slightly different from the original work of the son-in-law.
The biggest difference is the age of the current emperor Zhou Zhe. In this world, Zhou Zhe is in his prime and has two legitimate sons. The eldest son has been established as the prince, and the second son is King Zhou Lai of Qin.
"It's indeed easier to chat with you than with those natives..."
King Qin had a smile on his face, and it seemed that he had been holding it back for a long time.
Laying out a plan that is so subtle that no one can discover it, but being unable to tell anyone about it, this feeling of frustration is tantamount to walking at night in brocade clothes.
Now that Ning Yi asked about it, King Qin felt that everything was under control, so he couldn't help but tell Ning Yi.
"...Li Heng's guess was still wrong. The tea set was indeed made of silver, but part of the inner pot of the teapot was made of lead. The prince had been drinking tea from this teapot for more than a year, and now he has developed symptoms of headache, fatigue, and forgetfulness. "
"I believe it won't be long before my father will abolish his position as crown prince and make me the crown prince instead."
Having said this, King Qin couldn't help but sigh: "Of course, this is the result I want to see most."
"After all, the prince is connected by blood with the same mother as me. Although the royal family has no family ties, if possible, I still want to save his life..."
Ning Yi cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness is benevolent and righteous, Ning Yi admires you."
King Qin glanced at him: "Stop ridiculing me, show your attitude, and the three time travelers around you. I hope that you can all stand with the King of Qin's palace. When I ascend the throne, you will all be Isn’t it better for all of you, my king’s ministers, to share the glory and wealth than to rebel bitterly?”
After saying that, King Qin smiled and said: "Think about Jiangning. I just flapped my wings in the capital and set off huge waves outside Jiangning."
"Isn't such power more exciting than personal force?"
Ning Yi recalled what he saw and heard in the Traveler Alliance, shook his head and said: "It's really not necessarily true."
King Qin frowned and said immediately: "I heard that 'Liaoyuan Gun' Li Yun and 'Xue Gongzi' Zuo Yu disappeared near Huzhou, and the only one left with you was 'Hang Tian Lei' Ye Zixun... Where are the others? "
"Here he is, His Highness King Qin!"
Careless words came from the front of the carriage.
……What? !
King Qin was suddenly startled, and then he realized that Ye Zixun had sneaked into his motorcade quietly and even replaced the driver of the carriage silently.
In front of the carriage, Ye Zixun grabbed the reins, glanced at the surrounding cavalry guards who were unaware of him, and chuckled as his voice entered the carriage.
"Classmate Zhou, Ye has to admit that you do have ambitions and means, but you still did some things wrong..."
Although in the eyes of King Qin, testing Ning Yi is nothing more than a trivial matter, Ning Yi is now a formal member of the alliance. King Qin's move against Ning Yi is a provocation to the Traveler Alliance.
Speaking of this, Ye Zixun paused and said softly: "Now that he has admitted it, fourth brother, tell me how to punish him..."
King Qin was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then he became furious: "How dare you, how dare you plot to assassinate the current King of Qin?!"
The angry and deliberately loud voice came out, hitting the invisible barrier outside the carriage, and then bounced back. None of the hundreds of guards guarding the carriage could hear King Qin's cry for help.
Ye Zixun curled his lips and said: "Stupid."
Ning Yi shook his head and said: "No, this is not stupidity, it is just a simple ignorance!"
Hearing the two people's conversation as if no one else was watching, King Qin's heart beat fast and the veins on his forehead bulged slightly.
But he calmed down quickly and looked at Ning Yi coldly.
"...What exactly do you want to do?"
Ning Yi thought for a while: "Actually, it doesn't matter. I personally don't care about the assassination by the Liangshan bandits, but the third brother thinks you are provoking them, so you probably have to pay some price to regain your qualifications."
"...Qualifications, what qualifications?"
King Qin Zhou Lai quickly captured the key words in Ning Yi's words.
Ning Yi smiled and said nothing. He just pulled out the platinum-gold pistol from his arms and pointed it at King Qin.
King Qin was suddenly shocked, his eyes widened, and he looked at the technological product that transcended the times in disbelief.
"This...this...how is this possible?!"
Ning Yi shook his head and said: "You didn't even find out the origin of Hong Tianlei's name, yet you dared to invite me to share the carriage without a body search. I really don't know whether you are confident or arrogant..."
"Pistol...this is impossible...this is absolutely impossible!"
King Qin stared blankly at the platinum-colored M1911, muttering to himself with a look of disbelief.
Ye Zixun thought for a while and said enthusiastically: "Fourth brother, I thought about it. Since this kid thinks that power is stronger than personal force, why not let us enter the palace and show him!"
Ning Yi was startled: "Isn't this... too random?"
Ye Zixun said indifferently: "What's wrong with this? I just asked Boss Lin, and he asked us to do it cheaply. It just so happens that I am getting tired of playing the role of a peerless master in this world. It's time to change my identity and show what I mean." Real power!"
...Boss Lin?
Isn’t the boss of Tiannan Sanxiong’s surname Li?
Cold sweat broke out on King Qin's forehead, and he realized in his heart that he had misjudged the situation.
Ning Yi shook his head and said: "Third brother, you know me. I actually don't want to be an emperor or leader."
Ye Zixun was silent for a moment and sighed softly: "Yes, so this kid's identity is actually quite suitable. Although he is a bit arrogant, if he has seen it... he should be able to hide his desire for power."
"What a pity. He should never, never should, never should have taken action against you."
"Now I'm in trouble too... Why don't you come up with an idea?"
After the words fell, the atmosphere in the carriage fell into silence.
King Qin looked at Ning Yi and the pistol in his hand in silence, hesitating to speak.
Ning Yi looked at the unwillingness in his eyes, thought for a while, and said: "Destroy his position as King of Qin!"
Ye Zixun happily agreed: "Okay, I'll go talk to the emperor. There happens to be a matter of the silver pot, so it's justifiable..."
King Qin was shocked when he heard this, and quickly stood up and said: "Brother Ye, Brother Ye, don't worry, we are all time travellers. If we have anything to say, we can't sit down and discuss it carefully. Why bother forcing each other? I... I can ask Brother Ning apologized!"
With that said, King Qin turned to look at Ning Yi and said sincerely: "Brother Ning, what happened to Jiang Ning is indeed my fault. I can apologize to you. Besides, I have grown up now, and Prime Minister Qin also secretly supports me. Even if you If you don’t want to help me, we are also a family... If you don’t believe me, ask Prime Minister Qin!”
To be honest, if it was just Ye Zixun's threat of force, Zhou Lai wouldn't be so panicked.
But Ning Yi actually took out a pistol that was obviously from an era, which completely messed up his mind.
For a time, various conjectures appeared in his mind.
Including but not limited to European and American civilization, the Industrial Revolution, and even the main god space and reincarnation...
Zhou Lai had cold sweat on his forehead, looking at the silent Ning Yi, feeling uneasy in his heart.
Ning Yi was silent for a moment and sighed softly: "Actually, I really don't care about that interception. However, since the third brother insists, then what should be done is still done... Third brother, you go to the palace! "
Zhou Lai's face turned gloomy instantly.
Ye Zixun smiled and said: "What about you?"
Ning Yi shook his head and said: "I won't go."
Ye Zixun nodded and immediately waved his hand.
In an instant, dense silver swords appeared around the carriage.
When the more than a hundred guards guarding the carriage saw this scene, they were shocked and quickly drew their swords from their waists.
The next second, the sword light flashed, and countless muffled sounds sounded almost at the same time. All the armored guards were hit on the back of the head by the hilt of the sword, rolled their eyes, and fell to the ground unconsciously.
The curtain of the carriage was pulled up, Ning Yi stepped out of the carriage, stuffed the pistol into his arms, stepped over the unconscious guard at his feet and walked towards the Prime Minister's Mansion.
King Qin Zhou Lai also wanted to take the opportunity to escape, but before he could step out of the carriage, a flying sword flashing with cold light appeared in front of him, forcing him to sit back again.
This is... a flying sword? !
King Qin Zhou Lai's face was filled with shock and astonishment. His world view, which had been shattered by the impact of the pistol, was once again crushed into powder.
...Who are these people? !
Why is it completely different from the novels he read in his previous life?
It has to be said that Zhou Lai's psychological quality is far beyond that of ordinary people for being able to reach this point.
He quickly accepted the reality, looked at Feijian with a pale face, and whispered: "What on earth do you want to do?!"
Ye Zixun's slightly smiling voice came from the front of the carriage: "Nothing, I just want to show you what real power is."
In a remote alley, there were more than a hundred unconscious armored guards lying everywhere. A carriage representing the Palace of Qin ran over the soldiers, drove out of the alley, turned a corner, and drove towards the tall palace wall not far away. go.
The setting sun casts a golden light through the gaps between the trees.
There were not many pedestrians on the street, and the atmosphere was quite quiet.
This caused the woman's scream not far away to be particularly harsh.
Ye Zixun frowned, turned the carriage, and drove towards the direction of the sound.
When I turned the corner ahead, I saw the scene of a bad boy bullying a good father and daughter.
The richly dressed young man was chasing a young woman wearing a headscarf with several servants. The woman looked poor in clothing and could not be considered a wealthy family. Several servants reached out to stop the woman who wanted to escape. Within a certain range, let the young man chase him.
"who is he?"
Feijian raised the curtains, allowing Zhou Lai to see the evil-looking young master with a harsh laugh.
Zhou Lai said with a pale face: "It's Huahua Taisui, Gao Mu'en, the son of Gao Qiu, the yamen of the Taiwei Mansion."
"It turns out to be this beast." Ye Zixun frowned, "You have been in the capital for so long and you didn't even kill this guy?"
"I have only been in this world for two and a half years...Besides, Gao Qiu is on my side."
Zhou Lai showed hesitation and said softly: "But don't worry, I will definitely kill Gao Mu'en. When I become the prince..."
The day lily is cold!
Ye Zixun shook his head, and with a wave of his hand, the sword light flashed and instantly chopped off the head of Huahua Taisui dozens of meters away.
