Li Linfu's heart was pounding and his hands and feet were numb. If Li Zaixing hadn't been pinching his neck, he would have almost collapsed to the ground.

But he still reluctantly kept calm: "Who are you?"

"You know who I am."

"Yang Zhao is so brave. He isn't he afraid that I will kill his whole family?"

"It is precisely because he is afraid of you that he hopes you die." Li Zaixing tightened his wrist, "Don't have any extravagant hopes. I know there are no masters around you, and these guards are not my opponents. I can kill you ten times before they shoot me."

Li Linfu suddenly felt a feeling of being unable to breathe, and cold sweat slid from his temples. He knew very well that Li Zaixing was right. No one around him could deal with Li Zaixing, let alone save him from Li Zaixing.

Today, he is dead.

Once he knew that he would die, he miraculously calmed down, patted Li Zaixing's arm, and signaled him to let go a little. Li Zaixing was relieved, Li Linfu took a few breaths and sang: "Everyone retreated twenty steps away."

Hearing the sound, Manager Jiang, who had just rushed in, was stunned. "Li Xiang?"

"Get out!" Li Linfu shouted without any doubt. To this day, he still has irresistible majesty. Manager Jiang did not dare to disobey, so he had to order all the guards to retreat twenty steps away. Hearing the footsteps outside farther away, Li Linfu sneered: "Satisfied?"

"Very good." Li Zaixing let go of Li Linfu, pressed him to sit on the mat, and gently scraped the blade with his thumb: "There is not much time, I can answer your three questions and let you die with peace of mind."

"Aren't you afraid that someone will still be ambushed?" Li Linfu sneered, picked up the wine glass on the desk and handed it to his mouth.

"With less than ten steps, even if it is a mouse, as long as it is alive, it cannot be hidden from my ears." Li Zaixing also sneered: "You have two more questions."

Li Linfu was stunned and slowly put down his wine glass. He looked at Li Zaixing quietly and remained silent for a moment: "Where is my daughter?"

"She is very safe." Li Zaixing paused and said, "After this matter, I will send her to Lushan or Hengshan, and she will spend the rest of her life peacefully."

Li Linfu nodded: "The last question, who are you?"

Li Zaixing was stunned and shrugged: "I'm sorry, I want to answer your question, but I really don't know who I am."

Li Linfu frowned, looked at Li Zaixing, and looked at him with a sarcastic look: "So you are just an assassin."

Li Zaixing spread his hands indifferently: "You can change a question. After asking, I will send you back to heaven." He thought for a while and smiled, "But you probably won't go to heaven, and you may go to hell and suffer endless suffering to redeem your sins of death."

Li Linfu tilted his mouth and looked at it disdainfully. He closed his eyes and raised his neck: "You can do it."

Li Zaixing was stunned. Is the traitor Li Linfu, who was greedy for power and throne? He is simply a martyr who is righteous and ready to die. What does this mean? Why don’t you follow the script? Before the bad guy dies, shouldn’t he cry and kneel down and beg for mercy?

Seeing Li Zaixing's face full of confusion, Li Linfu raised his lips and said mockingly: "You seem to have a question to ask?"

"Yes, I don't understand that you are so calm." Li Zaixing expressed his doubts calmly, and he became more and more curious about the eternal treacherous minister in front of him. Although he had only met Li Linfu for the second time so far.

"Frankly, it's because I'm waiting for death every day and have been prepared for it." Li Linfu said lightly, with no fear in his eyes, but there is indelible sadness: "In the 22nd year of Kaiyuan (734), I have been the prime minister for seventeen years. Since Zhang Jiuling stopped him, I have also had fifteen years. Today's power and today's position, I know how many enemies I have. I never dared to hope that I can die, let alone that I can have a reputation behind my back."

He looked at Li Zaixing and sneered: "The same is true for you. The cunning rabbit dies, the lackeys cook, the birds are gone, and the good bows are hidden. Do you think you can have a good result?"

Li Zaixing smiled and said, "What's the result for me? You don't need to worry about it."

Li Linfu nodded: "Yes, I can't protect myself now, and I am indeed not qualified to worry about your future. I just remind you a few words as a person who has experienced it. Young people, no matter whether you are in a high position or holding heavy troops in the future, in the eyes of the emperor, you are just an ant. When you are useful, you can do whatever you want, but when you are useless, you have only one end: death. The only difference lies in the way you die."

Li Zaixing was silent, he knew that what Li Linfu was talking about was the truth.

"Why am I not afraid of death? Because I know that dying like now is actually the best choice." Li Linfu chuckled softly, with a little more joy and relief in his eyes: "I die like this. Your Majesty will pity me for death miserably. He will remember my goodness and the people will forget my evil. In a few years, when Yang Zhao and An Lushan get in trouble and An Lushan will raise an army to cause trouble, more people will think of me and miss me."

Li Zaixing frowned, and he suddenly understood why Li Tengkong did not resist. He always felt that although Li Tengkong was smart, he was too weak. For her own safety, he actually cooperated so much and ignored his father Li Linfu's life and death. Now after listening to Li Linfu's words, he vaguely felt that this result might be the result that Li Linfu wanted, and the best result he could get. So Li Tengkong just begged him to leave a whole body for Li Linfu so that he could die a little decent.

It sounds...it seems to make some sense.

"I heard that you have always said that An Lushan would rebel, and it would trigger a catastrophe." Li Linfu stared at Li Zaixing's eyes: "I didn't believe it at first, because as long as I live one day, An Lushan would not dare to act rashly. Now I'm going to die, I believe your prophecy may be true. Young man, since you believe that An Lushan would rebel, you can't sit down. If you destroy the Great Wall of the Tang Dynasty, you must take on the responsibility of the Great Wall, otherwise you will be the sinner of the Tang Dynasty."

Li Zaixing looked at Li Linfu in surprise, both angry and funny. Such a traitor actually had the nerve to call himself the Great Wall of the Tang Dynasty?

Li Zaixing couldn't help but sneer and said, "If you want to talk about sinners, you are the sinners of the Tang Dynasty, right?"

"I'm not." Li Linfu flatly rejected it. After a moment, he said again: "Even if it is, I'm just going to be guilty."

Li Zaixing sneered: "You appointed the Hu people as generals for your own power, which made An Lushan respect his troops and plant the root of disaster. It was just a crime. Who was the crime?"

Li Linfu snorted without fear: "You know who it is."

Li Zaixing was stunned and then understood what Li Linfu meant. Who was the first crime? Of course, it was the emperor Li Longji. If Li Longji had not been foolish in his later years, no matter how smart Li Linfu was, he would not have had the chance to be the only prime minister for fifteen years. Thinking back to the beginning, Yao Chong, Song Jing, Zhang Shuo and other famous prime ministers were all driven by Li Longji.

"Okay, I remember what you said and leave it for later verification." Li Zaixing stood up and moved his muscles: "Three questions have been asked, now I will send you on the road. What are your last words?"

Li Linfu's face turned pale and his lips lost their blood. He trembled for a moment and bowed: "Please tell me to go to the sky and live well and don't have any contact with this dirty world anymore. People's hearts are sinister, and she is too kind."

Li Zaixing nodded: "I will definitely bring it to you."

"Thank you." Li Linfu sorted out his clothes, sat upright with his eyes hanging down, as if he was asleep.

Li Zaixing took the front half and took a step forward like lightning. His palm slammed Li Linfu's heart, and his palm was about to break out.

Li Linfu couldn't sit upright, but frowned, then slowly let go, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised, as if he was smiling.

Li Zaixing stepped back and did not check anything. He knew that his palm had broken Li Linfu's heart, and even Hua Tuo could not save Li Linfu. He listened to the movements around him, swept the items on the desk in front of Li Linfu to the ground, raised the desk table with his left hand, held a short knife in his right hand, lifted the door of the tent, and shouted that he would come out.

Manager Jiang and others rushed up, and arrows were fired. Li Zaixing used the case as a shield, and attacked like a wind, punched and hit her feet, like a tiger entering a flock of sheep. In a blink of an eye, several people were killed, breaking through the siege, and disappearing into the vast mountains and fields.

...

In the bamboo forest in the distance, Pei Xuanqing looked at the chaos in front of Li Linfu's tent, breathed a sigh of relief, tugged at his palm and smiled: "Li Linfu is dead!"

The bamboo forest behind him roared, and Li Zaixing strode out. While walking, he took off his clothes stained with blood on his body: "Let's go, go back and report to Yang Xiang's victory."

Pei Xuanqing was overjoyed, caught up with two steps, and walked side by side with Li Zaixing. He turned to look at Li Zaixing, and suddenly became a little surprised: "You don't seem to be very happy? Didn't you succeed?"

Li Zaixing chuckled: "Die with one blow."

Pei Xuanqing breathed a sigh of relief and did not ask any more questions. They rushed to Yang Zhao's tent. After Yang Zhao asked about the past, he glanced at the bloody clothes in Li Zaixing's hand, and pointed to the brazier: "Burn it, change into clean clothes and have a drink."

"Here." Li Zaixing bowed and took the order, threw the bloody clothes into the brazier, and watched the bloody clothes swallowed by the flames. Then he turned around and smiled at Elmmady, "Elmmady, let's go for wine. Today is Shangsi Festival, and it's worth a thousand gold at one moment."

Elmie blushed and followed Li Zaixing out of the tent.

Yang Zhao and Lady Guo Guo, Pei Rou exchanged glances and laughed silently. Gradually, they laughed louder and louder, happier and more unrestrained. Yang Zhao patted his chest and said loudly: "Come on, have a good wine. We will celebrate such a big happy event."

...

Li Tengkong stood on the hillside, looking at the chaos of the Li family curtains, tears fell like rain.

Li Zaixing and Almadie strode over and saw Li Tengkong crying, and stopped involuntarily. He hesitated for a moment, walked to Li Tengkong and whispered: "He walked very easily."

"I know." Li Tengkong cried: "The last thing he cares about must be my safety."

"Yes, he wants you to survive."

"I can." Li Tengkong glanced at Li Zaixing fiercely: "You must live well too." She paused and said, "Only in this way can you know whether you did the right thing or the wrong thing today."
