"No, I don't want to die yet! No, you can't kill me."

Death is undoubtedly very scary for anyone.

And when they are really about to face death, few people can maintain the demeanor they should have.

On the bank of Zi River, the water flowing from west to east rolls forward, and a red soldier holding a halberd stands silently.

The sharp halberd blade shone with a cold light, intimidating the prisoner in ocher clothes to walk step by step.

Every step he took was so difficult, and the fear in his heart increased by one point.

When they finally reached their position, the fear in the prisoner's heart had reached its extreme.

"Spare your life, spare your life, spare your life!"

"I'm willing to give my family's money, but I just want a living."

"I……"

Perhaps death was too scary, and one prisoner even died of fright in the middle of his sentence.

The surrounding Wei soldiers saw this scene and quickly stepped forward. After confirming that the man was no longer alive, they immediately bowed to the people standing above him.

"Prince, Sikou, Sima..."

Facing the soldiers' inquiries, Sikou Gongsun Yang, who was in charge of punishment, stood up directly.

After waving slightly, the soldiers bowed and accepted the order, and the body was carried down directly.

Slowly looking back, Gongsun Yang turned around and bowed to Prince Wei Shen, "Prince, it's time."

"In that case..."

While thinking for a moment, Wei Shen glanced at the group of prisoners below. Some of them were rangers roaming the land, and some were from aristocratic families in the Fish and Meat Township.

Of course, among them are the Tian clan who opposed Wei and restored Qi.

All in all, in one word, they are all unsettling factors for Wei's rule over Qi.

So after just scanning for a moment, Wei Shen's eyes suddenly flashed with a cold light.

"Execution!"

The moment the cold command fell, the passionate drums sounded immediately.

"Dong dong dong..."

The rumbling war drums drowned out the previous cries for mercy, and also caused the warriors behind the prisoners to slowly wave their sharp axes.

The moment the ax blade was swung down, the head was splashed on the ground along with blood, and the crying stopped along with the sound of the war drums.

At this moment, there seemed to be silence between heaven and earth, with only the Zi River rolling forward.

"Hua Hua Hua..."

I don’t know how much time passed, but Wei Shen, Gongsun Yang and Sun Boling were walking slowly beside the river that gave Linzi its name.

"Sir, do you know when Wei Shen first witnessed death?"

"I'm afraid it was the Anyi Rebellion that year."

"It seems that Sir still remembers it." The scene at that time seemed to be recalled in his mind, but Wei Shen's eyes were a little solemn, "If Sir were not there at that time, Wei Shen would have died in the rebellion.

hand."

"Since then, Wei Shen has understood that in addition to the responsibilities he bears, sometimes the sword in his hand must be stained with blood."

"As for whether the blood is the enemy's or your own, it depends on how you do it."

When Wei Shen's words rang in his ears, Gongsun Yang inevitably felt a little frightened in his heart.

The future monarch of Wei in front of him, like his father, was ruthless in his actions.

In addition to being frightened, Gongsun Yang also felt a little relieved, because this was what a qualified British Lord should possess.

Judging from these words alone, it is not wrong for King Wei Feng of Wei to hand over the task of governing Qi to the hands of Crown Prince Wei Shen.

"Prince, the land of Qi is rich and noble, and the style of knight-errants is prevalent. The rule of the land of Qi should be governed by heavy rules."

"Kill the rangers, exterminate the wealthy families, enforce the law, and the land will be unified."

"What you said is absolutely true."

Hearing that Gongsun Yang's judgment was the same as his own, a smile suddenly appeared on Wei Shen's face.

However, this smile did not last long, and a bit of worry appeared on his face again, "It's just that there is an undercurrent surging across the land now, and I'm afraid that someone with intentions will do harm to me, the Wei Dynasty."

"But please don't worry, Prince." This time, Sima Sun Boling, who had been silent since the beginning, spoke up, "The fifty thousand elite men under the general's command are already on the alert. They are just waiting for the Prince's order."

"Prince, no matter whether it is as smooth as a mirror or undercurrents are surging, those thoughtful people hiding in the dark will jump out sooner or later." Gongsun Yang also said immediately.

"Okay, in that case..." He held Gongsun Yangma with one hand and Sun Boling with the other. Wei Shen said confidently: "Then the two gentlemen and I will be fishermen, waiting for the fish lurking on the water.

The fish below are hooked.”

…

"Bang bang bang..."

On the banks of the Zi River, Wei Shen, Gongsun Yang, and Sun Boling were chatting incessantly; in Linzi City, the door of a guest room was also knocked by an uninvited guest.

When Zhao Wenjun opened the door, he found an unfamiliar face in his sight, and some doubts suddenly emerged in his mind.

"Your Excellency is..."

"I've met Zhao Wenjun." He looked around with vigilant eyes, only to hear the person whispering to Zhao Wen Jun: "I have something important to discuss with Zhao Wen Jun."

Seeing the other party acting like this, Zhao Wenjun immediately understood what the other party meant, "In that case, your Excellency, please."

When the open door closed again and the two sat opposite each other, Zhao Wenjun's voice rang again, "I wonder if you are coming today?"

"Tian's wife, Tian Yan, came to see you rashly today and disturbed Lord Zhaowen."

Just by hearing the other party announce his home address, Zhao Wenjun already guessed the other party's intention.

Ever since Tian Cheng's son Tian Heng killed the Bao, Yan and other princes and gradually took the power of Qi into his hands, the Tian family gradually had a tendency to replace the Lu family.

And when Tian Chang's "descendants" were assigned to various parts of Qi State and took over local power, the original Lu family Qi State eventually became Tian family Qi State.

As for now, when the Wei State invades the land that originally belonged to the Lu family and later belonged to the Tian family, the people of the Tian family have become the biggest victims.

In fact, Tian Yan's next words did not go beyond Zhao Wenjun's expectations, "Violate Wei Wei Dao, invade my territory, kill my Li Shu..."

All in all, according to Tian Yan's narrative, Wei was the most cruel country in the world, and everything he did could arouse the anger of both humans and gods.

If given the chance, he would definitely pick up the weapon in his hand and fight the soldiers of Wei in a bloody battle to regain the territory that originally belonged to Qi.

When Tian Yan had fully expressed this generous lament, Zhao Wenjun just replied lightly, "Ji Zhao also hates the atrocities committed by the Wei State; it's just that the Wei State is powerful, but it is powerless."

"No." Before Zhaowenjun could finish his words, Tian Yan on the opposite side said immediately: "I heard that Zhaowenjun went north on the order of the King of Yue."

"If we can rely on the power of Yue and other princes to take advantage of Wei's unpreparedness and launch an attack suddenly, we may not be able to succeed."

After a moment, Tian Yan freed his mind from the longing for the achievement of the strategy and said loudly: "At that time, everyone in the world will praise Zhaowenjun's talent and wisdom, and even more, they will admire the emperor's majesty."

When he heard these words, especially the last sentence, Zhao Wenjun's eyes suddenly moved.
