“Lu Chunfeng entered the palace to meet the emperor. His Majesty is very happy.”
“I’m afraid Tian Zi’s attitude will change as well.”
One sentence directly sentenced Li Zhulong to death.
Li Zhulong was silent.
At this point, even the emperor, who was his last reliance, might have already swayed to the other side. How could they continue playing?
Zhao Wang and Lin Yi looked at each other. They weren’t surprised,” Tian Zi is a weak person, and he thinks too much. That’s why he often appears to be at a loss. It’s not the first time something like this has happened.”
It was also because of this that even though he had fought so fiercely with the King of Qin, he had never thought of forming an alliance with the emperor.
There was no other reason. This emperor couldn’t bear the weight of the word ‘ally’ in his eyes. If he really placed his hopes on him, he might end up discovering that he was a useless teammate.
Just like now.
Li Zhulong had already put Li Tianchong in this. In essence, he was doing things for you. Now that the matter had not been completed, how could he continue to believe you if you said you wanted to betray him?
More importantly, he was basically selling Lin Yi out.
After all, Lin Yi was the one who managed to get Li Tianchong into the ninth floor of the prison. The reason why Li Zhulong was moved was mainly because of Lin Yi.
The emperor’s sudden act of selling Lin Yi out was completely inhumane.
However, Lin Yi was the same as Zhao Wang-he knew the emperor’s nature and never thought of him as a reliable person. They were just using each other.
Without expectations, there was naturally no disappointment.
“This Lu Chunfeng is really not simple.”
“If I’m not wrong, these are all his doing, including the Wei and Yan palaces.” Lin Yi clicked his tongue.
Compared to the freakish level of unique profoundness, Lu Chunfeng’s control over the entire situation was even more shocking.
A few simple actions were enough to suffocate people.
From Li Zhulong’s reaction, it could be seen that if it was only him, at this point, he would basically have to give up.
There was nothing he could do even if he was unwilling.
Once the other party made a move, he directly blocked all the paths. There was no hope at all. No matter how much they struggled, there was no chance of winning.
However, Lin Yi’s next words gave him hope.
“Looks like we have to look for external help.”
” What?” Li Zhu Long’s eyes lit up.” Manager Lin, do you mean that there’s still hope?”
Lin Yi looked at him strangely.” Anything can happen before the dust settles. I don’t believe that Master Li doesn’t know such basic logic.”
Lu Chunfeng’s plan was indeed thorough, but he was not a god after all. Things might not develop according to the script he had envisioned.
The Prince of Wei, Prince of Yan, and the emperor could betray him now, but they might not betray him again.
” What?” Zhao Wang glanced at Li Zhu Long with amusement.” The Li family head is an expert at pretending to be confused.”
Li Zhu Long couldn’t help but feel a little embarrassed. He smiled apologetically.” I’m clumsy. I lost my composure for a moment. I’ve made a fool of myself.”
Lin Yi and Zhao Wang looked at each other and cursed in their hearts.
Old fox.
How was this clumsy? It was clearly a deliberate attempt to hide his clumsiness.
Li Zhu Long deliberately put on such a show. Firstly, he could show weakness in front of the two of them, so that the two of them would lower their guard against him in future cooperation.
Secondly, he knew that there was no turning back. Since things had come to this point, whether it was Lin Yi or Zhao Wang, they wouldn’t give up halfway.
If he didn’t make a move, Lin Yi and Lin Yi would.
When the time came, the pressure from House Lu would naturally fall on Lin Yi and Zhao Wang. House Li of Fengtian House only needed to be a small invisible person on the side, and they would be able to eat everything in peace.
Lin Yi wouldn’t be able to tell if he was a little arrogant.
However, Lin Yi and Zhao Wang weren’t unhappy about it.
Li Zhu Long had contributed less now. When the fruits of victory were divided later, the things he could get would naturally be less.
On some level, Lin Yi even wanted him to be a tool. If he was too ambitious, things would go wrong.
As for eating more and taking more, that would depend on whether Lin Yi and Zhao Wang agreed or not.
The Fengtian Prefecture’s Li Clan had already suffered a beating. If they didn’t even know their limits, they would have to suffer another beating. When the pain was engraved in their bones, they would naturally be obedient.
“I wonder which side Manager Lin is looking for?” Li Zhu Long asked cautiously.
“I’ll keep you in suspense for now, we’ll know in a few days.” Lin Yi smiled.
Li Zhu Long couldn’t help but glance at Zhao Wang. Seeing that Zhao Wang was smiling and not saying anything, he knew that he had already gotten a low score from the two of them. He immediately smiled and didn’t continue to pursue the matter.
The three of them continued to chat for a while before Li Zhulong stood up and left.
” Heh!” King Zhao chuckled.” He’s a smart man. Unfortunately, he lacks a bit of courage. He can’t put his life on the line.”
Lin Yi smiled,” It’s not strange. House Li of Fengtian House has a big family to worry about. It’s inevitable that they’ll be overcautious at a time like this. They can’t compare to me, who’s alone, and they can’t compare to you, King Zhao.”
“Are you mocking me?” King Zhao glanced at him.
Back then, if it had not directly affected Zhao Feng’s life and safety, he would have also consciously locked himself up like a tiger in a cage.
“How dare you?”
“Do you have any information on King Qi’s mansion?” Lin Yi laughed.
The King of Zhao raised his eyebrows.” Of course there is. Are you targeting the King of Qi Residence?” You have good taste.”
Lin Yi said bluntly,” The competition for the position of the Grand Tutor isn’t a competition between one city and one place. In my opinion, it’s a test for King Qin’s mansion. The only one who dares to stand up and fight King Qin’s mansion now is King Qi’s mansion.”
“Don’t flatter me.”
The King of Zhao rolled his eyes and said unhappily,” In the eyes of the various forces, I’m at most a vanguard of the anti-Qin rebellion. I’m just a hired thug. The King of Qi, who is known to be on the same side as King Qin’s Mansion, is the true commander.”
Lin Yi smiled.
Although these words were of a teasing nature, they were not rough and were basically the truth.
Everyone could see that King Zhao’s combat strength was indeed abnormal. However, when magnified to the strength and foundation of the entire King Zhao’s Residence, it was obvious that they were inferior to King Qin’s Residence by an order of magnitude. This was an indisputable fact.
If it wasn’t for the deterrence that King Zhao had accumulated in his early years, fearing that he would completely flip the table and go berserk, King Qin’s residence had always been more restrained. Otherwise, King Zhao’s residence would have been eaten alive long ago.
