Yes, Ran Min was carrying a disabled Han Ci by himself and his horse. He swaggered out of Hanoi City. There were no twists and turns. Jing Wei didn't react until Ran Min left his sight.
"Hey, Lin Chu! Don't tell me you can't make them stay. I know you too well. You definitely did it on purpose!”Jing Wei asked Lin Chu unwillingly as he watched Ran Min leave.
At this moment, although Xu Huang and Zhao Li were already exhausted, they still quickly stood in line. Standing beside Lin Chu, he saw Wang Jingwei and launched an attack. Xu Huang stood between the two of them and said,"Governor Liu, you're being too serious. You should have seen that guy's strength. How do you know that Military Advisor Lin let him off and not him letting us off?”
The next moment, Jing Wei realized that he had lost his composure. He quickly adjusted his attitude and walked past Xu Huang, whispering into Lin Chu's ear,"I know, Zhu Rong shouldn't have died so early. And the reason for this is because Sun En is still alive. If I remember correctly, you clearly had the chance to kill him two years ago. Zhu Xiong's death is definitely related to you!”
Regarding Jing Wei's words. Lin Chu pretended he didn't hear her and continued to walk further and further away. "Oh, do you understand me?" Lin Chu put on a bitter smile, but he didn't stop.
So what if he knew? Not to mention that there was no concrete evidence, even if there was, what could he do? What was the point of defeating Lin Chu now? Had there been an insurmountable wall between the two of them?
"Come out!" Ran Min, who had already entered the dense forest, suddenly shouted. Han Ci naturally did not pay much attention to it. After all, the dozens of people hiding around were too easy to discover. However, Ran Min's pressure made Han Ci feel extremely uncomfortable even if it was not directed at him.
After a loud shout, several Yellow Turban soldiers walked out shakily. His entire body trembled uncontrollably, and he said with cold sweat,"Military Advisor Wu ordered us to wait here. He said that if any of his companions escaped, he would lure them in, and if any of his enemies chased after him, he would intercept them. Then, he would gather some information to think of a countermeasure to save Celestial Master Zhang and General Han.”
Ran Min didn't say anything, but it was obvious that his expression had softened. "Ahehehe, what a good Wu Yong! He harmed us, but he still had to pretend to be a good person to leave a way out for himself. What was invested was merely the lives of dozens of soldiers. You really know how to calculate carefully." Although Han Ci was laughing maniacally, he still hid his words in his heart. In this world, other than the Yellow Turbans, where else was willing to take him in? Therefore, he must not fall out with Wu Yong.
Wu Yong played his old trick again after retreating. By separating the troops, as long as something happened to one unit, the other units would be able to make corresponding countermeasures when they received the news. "Now, Sun En is dead. Without a guarantee, it would be too easy for Wu Yong to kill him.”Han Ci thought as he followed dozens of Yellow Turban soldiers.
"Ahehehe, but I have Ran Min's battle strength. As long as he displayed his strength. Even Wu Yong wouldn't dare to act rashly, right?”Han Ci glanced at Ran Min, who was beside her, and thought about it.
" What a disgusting face..." Han Ci's heart kept rolling. He had already determined that this tragedy was definitely related to Wu Yong.
"General Han, you have come from the city. Do you know what situation Master Zhang is in now?”Wu Yong asked with concern and anxiety.
" Disgusting acting skills…" Although Han Ci thought about it in his heart, he still pretended to be sad and said,""Heavenly Master Zhang, Heavenly Master Zhang has already passed away!”
"Yes, I also have such a disgusting face and acting skills.”Han Ci laughed bitterly in his heart.
" Dirty lies…" But Han Ci also understood that it was such dirty lies that stabilized the morale of the army. It was this kind of dirty lie that this world needed.
"Presumably, it was this warrior who saved General Han, right?”Wu Yong seemed to have just noticed Ran Min, but Han Ci knew that his eyes had never left Ran Min since the two of them entered.
"Yes, I am." Ran Min answered calmly but domineeringly. He did not bow, let alone kneel, nor did he make any polite movements. Before this, his status was only at the bottom of the Yellow Turban ranks. Yet, he dared to call himself king in front of the temporary supreme leader!
"I don't want any rewards. As long as you remember one thing." Ran Min didn't wait for Wu Yong to ask further. As he spoke, he took large strides forward.
"Zhang Jiao is just my subordinate. You can be understood as my strategists in the Heaven Realm.”Ran Min said as he sat down at the main seat.
"Ran Min, you!" Han Ci shouted at Ran Min as she lost her sense of propriety due to this sudden change. "Hmm? Do you have any doubts?" Ran Min grabbed Han Ci's throat and asked.
Han Ci was already physically and mentally exhausted and could not dodge at all. He looked at Ran Min in disbelief. "Are you kidding me? Didn't I summon this guy? Why did you disobey me?" This should be the only thought in Han Ci's mind at this moment.
"I really don't understand why I don't want to kill you. Does anyone still have any doubts?" A violent black aura surged across the entire area. The crowd was so shocked that they were unable to resist. Ran Min threw Han Ci to the ground. Of course, he did not use his full strength. Wu Yong looked at Ran Min, but he was neither afraid nor suspicious. He revealed a meaningful smile, and his eyes flashed as if he was thinking about something. Soon, he knelt on one knee and said,"Greetings to my Lord!"
Ran Min looked at Wu Yong and also revealed a meaningful smile. Then, he looked around at the so-called higher-ups around him. In fact, as long as he took them down, Wu Yong and Han Ci, as well as the other so-called higher-ups, were just a joke.
Seeing that Wu Yong had already surrendered, everyone followed suit and said,"My lord has returned!" Ran Min burst into laughter and turned his attention to Han Ci.
Compared to Wu Yong, who only wanted to hide behind the scenes and manipulate power, and Han Ci, who only wanted to study medicine. Perhaps Ran Min, a domineering and ambitious guy, was more suitable for a high position. Han Ci was just unwilling. He was clearly the one who had summoned her, so why did she disobey him like this?
" My lord has returned…" After a struggle in his heart, Han Ci finally chose to surrender. For the sake of his family, for the right to research potions, and for the resources, he had to endure everything.
"Hahaha, very good! Very good!" The violent black gas didn't ease up because of Ran Min's laughter. Instead, it became even more rampant. It was as if it was going to soar into the sky.
The next day, a big flag was raised in the camp. On the black background, there were red words with the words "Heavenly King Wu Dao" written by Wu Yong himself. Amidst the confusion and fear, he slowly rose.
Wu Yong didn't wait long before continuing,"Some words are only like lies if they are very stupid. However, the words spoken by Heavenly King Wu Dao were clearly lies that could be seen through at a glance. But is it stupid?" In the end, Han Ci remained silent.
Wu Yong didn't seem to have anything else to say. He waved his feather fan and left. Han Ci was left alone. "Yes, very clumsy! However, he was not stupid at all. Why? Because he had enough power! The so-called righteous path through strength." Han Ci muttered to herself in the empty field.
Yes, with enough power, one could turn right and wrong upside down, just like how Zhao Gao called a deer a horse in the past. There was no such thing as right or wrong in the world. It was always just the amount of strength.
If you said 1 1=3, as long as you were strong enough to kill everyone in the world who dared to say 2. Then 1 1 was equal to 3. This was power, this was authority. Making laws was what people pursued.
July 187. It was still a hot summer. Hanoi City was empty, like a ghost city. The flood in the city had receded, but the flood in people's hearts might not dissipate in their lifetime.
The news of Zhu Xiong's death spread throughout the country, and the whole country wailed in grief. Even the current Emperor Liu Hong, who was so licentious, was wailing endlessly for Zhu Rong's death. Of course, it was more like buying people's hearts. However, Lu Zhi, Huangfu Song, and the other old generals would fall for it.
Everyone was crying about Zhu Rong's death. As for the tens of thousands of people in Hanoi, it seemed to be just a passing figure. No one cared, and no one would do anything about it.
However, this was ancient times, or perhaps another world. They all paid attention to one's burial and return to their roots. Burying them in the soil of their hometown could be said to be the last consolation, right?
When Zhu Xi was alive, he said that there was no need for a lavish burial. Wrapping the body in a horse's leather and throwing it into the countryside was enough. However, at the end of the Han Dynasty, in an era where morbid Confucianism was prevalent, it was impossible to have a thin burial.
However, it was the country's business to carry out the grand plan. Jing Wei and Lin Chu only sent Zhu Rong's body to the highest point of the mountain and looked down at the city that he had to protect when he was alive. After some delicate repairs, it was completed.
In the end, Jing Wei didn't even understand why he wanted to plant a small apple tree next to Zhu Rong's tomb.
The small tree stood quietly beside Zhu Xi. When it grew into a towering tree and shielded Zhu Xi from the wind and rain, Zhu Xi had protected it for a lifetime. Would it be able to wait for the moment of repayment?
