Looking back now, Wei Changtian finally decided to turn his back on those few envoys who finally turned his back on him.
It was the Dahui envoy who survived in the end who personally confessed Chu Xianping's name, and it was verified by Tang Chen's mind-reading skills.
And before that... still remember that in Qingzhou City, Xuan Jingsi followed Chu Xianping to meet someone quietly?
That's right, that person is actually the master's mastermind.
Chu Xianping deliberately sold another loophole to Wei Changtian to "force" the latter to attack him earlier.
Because only in this way can his entire "betrayal" process be considered seamless.
Including the [-] Xuanjing officers who died, it was just the price that had to be sacrificed for this big show.
And the message "Everyone has his own aspirations"
Subsequent facts have proved that with so many foreshadowings, this scene is indeed very successful.
Not only Wei Changtian, but even Yang Liushi, Li Zimu, and even the whole world thought that he had really betrayed.
Naturally, Lu Hongji was also included in this.
At this point, Chu Xianping could finally go to Dahui "naturally" and get close to Lu Hongji.
And he spent so much effort, the ultimate goal is naturally not just to find out whether Tang Chen is a spy
Regarding the purpose of approaching Lu Hongji.
From the moment Chu Xianping found out that Lu Hongji was the elder of Kuilong Huangtai, he had two choices.
One, tell Wei Changtian about this matter.
Two, don't talk.
Obviously, Chu Xianping chose the latter.
The reason for this is also very simple, because after getting in touch with Zhuang Zhiming and Lu Hongji successively, and knowing more about Kuilong, Chu Xianping realized how terrifying such an ancient organization is.
Then, in order to prevent Wei Changtian from being involved in such a huge vortex again, Chu Xianping decided to solve all this by himself.
As for how to deal with Lu Hongji, he also had two choices.
One, like Zhuang Zhiming, use it.
Two, kill.
Considering Lu Hongji's status as the Emperor of Dahui and its possible impact on the Xinfeng war, Chu Xianping still chose the latter this time.
Therefore, from the day he found out Lu Hongji's identity, what he had to do was actually to kill people.
About Lu Hongji's death.
Strictly speaking, Lu Hongji died at the hands of Zhuang Zhiming.
But the opportunity to kill was completely created by Chu Xianping.
Why did he make such a deal with Lu Hongji that he would only profit if he defeated the army?
Why did he repeatedly "remind" Lu Hongji that Wei Changtian is difficult to deal with?
Why did he help the Ganhui army to stabilize the morale of the army, so that it would not collapse before the Kuilong people arrived?
The above is only because Chu Xianping wants Lu Hongji to "believe" one thing——
That is, I may not win this battle, and I may even lose it.
Once Lu Hongji really had such concerns, he would definitely make double preparations.
As for the other preparation, they can only rob Xu Suisui.
Therefore, it seems that Lu Hongji made the decision to "capture the thief first and capture the king first", but in fact it was Chu Xianping who was behind the scenes.
Let others make the decisions you want without them even knowing.
Compared to Tang Chen's move, maybe this is the real "mind control" technique.
After that, things are easy.
"Borrowed" the formation of three thousand divergent paths from Yan Huaiqing, making Zhuang Zhiming and others wait in the palace one step earlier.
When Lu Hongji really thought he was smart and came to the Xinfeng Palace, his fate was already doomed.
All Chu Xianping had to do was to save Xu Suisui or Li Zimu with a few words, and Zhuang Zhiming would do the rest.
And when Lu Hongji died, the drama that had deceived everyone finally came to an end.
The gongs drum up the wind and the clouds, the tigers roar and the dragons chant, and the Huang Zhong Da Lu shakes the world.
Singing through the depths, high and low, the world spreads Kunlun.
The big red curtain slowly closed, separating the upper and lower sides of the stage.
At this moment, the "actors" behind the curtain may suddenly realize, or have a kind of anger of being teased.
The "spectators" outside the curtain may applaud, or they may still be confused.
As for the protagonist of this scene, he just cupped his hands and said softly——
"Young master, that's it."
Chapter 781
"Young master, that's it."
After Chu Xianping finished the last sentence, the hall fell into silence again.
Wei Changtian watched him silently, with regret in his eyes.
Indeed, what Chu Xianping said just now can indeed explain [-]% of what he hadn't figured out before.
But there is only one point Wei Changtian still hasn't got the answer.
That's why Chu Xianping kept it a secret from himself.
Of course, if you ask yourself, Chu Xianping will definitely give you an answer, and the content is nothing more than "to make this scene more realistic", "to deceive Lu Hongji" and the like.
However, Wei Changtian felt that this was not the real reason why Chu Xianping even lied to himself.
You must know that even if it is a false betrayal, such a shocking deception will definitely make me dare not trust him in the future.
Chu Xianping will not fail to understand this truth.
Then, he must have other plans.
"Ugh"
Smiling wryly and sighing, Wei Changtian actually had a vague guess now.
Or maybe he had guessed this way before.
Therefore, after a moment of silence, he didn't ask any more details about this "big drama", but asked softly in Chu Xianping's suddenly complicated eyes:
"Brother Chu, when do you plan to leave?"
"."
when to go.
Such a question undoubtedly has a lot of meaning, and it also made Chu Xianping stunned.
Maybe it was unexpected that Wei Changtian could guess this level, maybe it was because he was surprised by the latter's "tolerant" attitude towards him.
In short, when Wei Changtian asked this question, Chu Xianping lowered his head for the first time.
The shadow of the candle flickered, reflecting the figures of the two of them.
After an unknown amount of time, Chu Xianping slowly raised his head.
He first took out the Kuilong Token of Elder Heitai from his bosom and put it on the tea table, then he knelt down in front of Wei Changtian without hesitation.
"Young master, I will never forget your kindness in knowing you."
"."
Seeing Chu Xianping with an extremely solemn expression, Wei Changtian's expression was still calm, as if he was not surprised by his current behavior.
"So, are you really going to seek this world?"
"Yes."
Chu Xianping finally didn't hide any more, lowered his head and slammed on the ground: "I don't know if it will be possible, but I want to give it a try, and I hope you will succeed."
"What if I don't make it?"
"Then I will stay."
"What if I want to kill you?"
"I have nothing to say."
"."
For three consecutive questions, Chu Xianping answered without the slightest hesitation.
And Wei Changtian also paused at this moment, and sighed softly from the bottom of his heart.
Sure enough, Chu Xianping still has that "big ambition" that is different from his own.
He probably had this plan long ago, and helping him win the national war and killing Lu Hongji were probably the last two things he did to repay his kindness.
"Brother Chu, I don't have your ambitions, your ingenuity, and I don't have any plans to compete in the world right now."
Turning his head to look at the night outside the window, Wei Changtian's tone was a little emotional.
"However, who can tell what will happen in the future?"
"If one day, you and I become enemies, what will you do?"
"My son's plan, no matter what, I will definitely give it up!"
Facing this last question that seemed far away but was actually very likely to happen, Chu Xianping still did not hesitate and answered very simply.
But Wei Changtian shook his head after hearing the words.
"Brother Chu, I don't need you to let me go."
"If there is such a day, I only hope that you and I can fight with our best, and there will be no complaints in the outcome."
"."
Do your best to fight, win or lose without complaint.
When he heard Wei Changtian utter these eight words, Chu Xianping couldn't help but suddenly raised his head, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.
The two just looked at each other for a moment in the flickering firelight, until an extremely solemn voice sounded.
"Yes!"
"Fight as hard as you can, win or lose without complaint!"
"."
The joys and sorrows gather for a glass of wine, and there are thousands of miles from north to south from east to west.
From the first meeting at Xuanjingsi's Shuzhou sub-rudder yamen to now deciding to go our separate ways in Fengyuan Palace, as Wei Changtian's most respected adviser, Chu Xianping has helped him for nearly three years.
In all fairness, without Chu Xianping in the past three years, Wei Changtian would never have come to this point, and it is not impossible that he would have died long ago.
Therefore, in Wei Changtian's view, Chu Xianping is not "betrayed" now, but just "parted ways" with him.
Because of this, at a certain moment, he suddenly smiled.
"Hahaha, brother Chu, see you and me in Jianghu."
"."
"Son!"
He kowtowed heavily to Wei Changtian for the last time, and Chu Xianping's voice trembled for the first time, unlike the former's relief.
After a while, I saw him raise his head, and responded extremely firmly:
"Yes!"
"Goodbye Jianghu!"
Outside Jinhua Hall, under the moonlight.
