Chapter 133
Li Mu came very quickly, as soon as he heard that Liu Bang had been arrested, he flew to Zhuangzi immediately.

"See Your Majesty."

"Well, bring someone here."

"promise."

When Liu Bang, Lu Gong, and Lu Zhi were brought to the hall, what they saw was a tall and straight figure in black and dark clothes.

"My lord, Liu Bang and his family brought it here."

Liu Bang and the others stared at the back, but when he turned around, Lu Gong and Lu Zhi's father and daughter didn't respond because they had never seen Gao Yao.

But Liu Bang turned pale with astonishment, his face was pale, his whole body was limp on the ground, and his mind was filled with the words "how is this possible".

Li Mu looked at Liu Bang with a smile that was not a smile, and said, "It seems that brother Liu already understands why I have encountered this situation today, and what fate I am about to face."

Liu Bang trembled all over, and hurriedly said: "Brother Gao Yao, listen to my explanation, things are not what you think."

"Two people escaped from the team of corvees I led, and our entire team will be beheaded for questioning. The officials have hand-picked the number of people, and they will use you to make up the number."

"This is also a group of brothers, and a group of lives. I was also forced to acquiesce in tears. Brother, I also want to save people."

"Hehehe..." Li Mu let out a series of laughter, but the three of them could see that there was no trace of a smile in his eyes, and that undisguised killing intent made the three of them terrified.

"A gentleman can be deceived. If you say these words to Xiao Chuan, you may get away with it. But I am not a gentleman. In front of me, your rhetoric is useless."

"With my current status, how difficult is it to find out the truth? Forced by helplessness, I acquiesce with tears in my eyes?"

"You asked the corvees to raise money to buy us drinks, get us drunk, and then use us as corvees to go to work. Is this your helpless, tearful acquiescence?"

"Chong"

After Li Mu finished speaking, he pulled out a long sword from his subordinates and walked slowly towards Liu Bang.

Liu Bang's face was ashen, and he finally remembered that if Gao hadn't been for Yi Xiaochuan, he would not have been able to kidnap him with benevolence, righteousness and morality, and he couldn't help but despair.

If I knew this was the case, I should have followed God's will and let Yi Xiaochuan be an official slave, and Gao was going to build the Great Wall.

Is this the consequence of violating God's will?Gao Yao, what virtue and ability does he have, that he can stand up as an official slave, and still have the power he has now?
It turned out that he decided the whereabouts of Yi Xiaochuan and Gao Yao by tossing a coin.

In the end, the result of his tossing of copper coins was that Yi Xiaochuan was an official slave, and Gao was going to build the Great Wall.

But he thinks that Yi Xiaochuan is too smart and capable, maybe he can rise up as an official slave and come to trouble him when the time comes.

So he switched the two, hoping that Yi Xiaochuan would die during the construction of the Great Wall.

At this time, he naturally thought that this was the punishment he received for violating the will of God.

Lu Zhi broke down and shouted to Liu Bang: "What the hell did you do? It caused our father and daughter to suffer."

Liu Bang's expression was bleak, looking at the long sword gleaming in Li Mu's hand, his mind was blank.

Lu Zhi begged Li Mu again: "Gao Jun, we don't know what Liu Bang did, let alone participated in it, please forgive us, please let us go!"

Li Mu shook his head and said, "You are a family, and a family should be neat and tidy. Even if you are not married yet, you are destined to become husband and wife."

"Liu Bang, Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty, went down, so how could Empress Lu be missing?"

Lu Pheasant and Lu Gong suddenly turned their heads to look at the leader who brought them here. Seeing the faint smile on his face, they felt chills all over their bodies.

The whole family is neat and tidy, so that's what they meant, but they thought it was because others were ignorant and didn't know how to use words.

Suddenly Liu Bang was shocked and regained his ability to think.

He stared at Li Mu and asked, "You call me Han Gaozu, and Xiao Chuan also called me Han Gaozu when he heard my name for the first time."

"Can you let me know exactly what Han Gaozu is? Why are you called the eldest lady Empress Lu?"

A faint smile appeared on Li Mu's face, and he said with strange eyes: "I think it's better for you not to know, otherwise, although you will die knowingly, you will definitely die with regret."

Liu Bang said with a miserable smile: "Even if I don't know anything, I will still die with regret. It's better to die and understand."

Li Mu pondered for a while, then nodded and said: "Since you insist, then I will let you die clearly, which can be regarded as the last respect for you, a person with a long history."

After saying this, he said to his subordinates: "Go out first, close the door, and retreat ten feet away."

"promise"

Without any hesitation, the snare killers immediately left the room and closed the door.

Li Mu just looked at Liu Bang, and the first sentence he spoke made several people tremble.

"The title Han Gaozu represents a founding emperor named the Han Dynasty. The official temple name is Taizu, and the posthumous title is Emperor Gao, referred to as Han Gaozu."

"Great Qin now only has nine years left for the country's destiny. After seven years, the world will be in chaos, and all heroes will rise together. Among them, Xiang Yu, the king of Western Chu, and Liu Bang, the king of Han, are the most powerful."

"Two years later, the Great Qin was destroyed, and then there was a struggle between Chu and Han. After five years of fighting, Xiang Yu was finally defeated. Liu Bang ruled the world and established the Great Han Dynasty. It was Han Gaozu."

When Li Mu said this, he turned to look at Lu Zhi, and continued: "Liu Bang named Lu Zhi as empress, that is, Empress Lu. Queen."

The three of them stared blankly at Li Mu, as if they were listening to a scripture.

Liu Bang stared at Li Mu, and asked, "Where did you get the news you mentioned?"

Li Mu smiled slightly, and said: "From the history books, I might as well tell you clearly that Xiao Chuan and I are not from this world at all, but from 2000 years in the future."

"In the eyes of me and Xiao Chuan, you people are just figures from history."

Seeing the puzzled faces of the three people, Li Mu explained again: "Let me tell you this, your existence, to me and Xiao Chuan, is like people in the Shang and Zhou Dynasties in your eyes."

"You can think about it, if one day you suddenly go to the Great Zhou Dynasty, or even the Shang Dynasty, then what will your reaction be when you meet the young King Zhou?"

Li Mu's words exploded in the minds of the three of them like a thunderbolt, and suddenly they understood Li Mu's words as if they were enlightened.

Liu Bang was in a trance, and murmured: "No wonder, no wonder Xiaochuan called me Han Gaozu as soon as he heard my self-reported name, and he was so enthusiastic about me that he even flattered me."

"It turns out that from the moment he heard my name, he knew that I would be emperor in the future, but now...why is this now?"

Lu Zhi also figured out a lot of things, why Yi Xiaochuan must match her up to Liu Bang, and why she couldn't understand what he said a lot, but she thought it made a lot of sense, and often had a sense of ignorance.

Now that I know the truth, if I think about it carefully, if they really went to the Shang and Zhou Dynasties and talked about "The Analects of Confucius" and "Mencius" to the people at that time, the people at that time would definitely regard them as saints.

It turns out that the truth of everything is like this, but why, why did it all become like this?

At this moment, Li Mu resolved the doubts in their hearts: "Are you thinking, since the history is recorded like that, why did you end up in this situation?"

"It's very simple, because Liu Bang offended people who shouldn't be offended to death."

"Xiao Chuan and I know the future historical development. As long as we make good friends with those who are destined to make great achievements in the future, we will surely be able to make great achievements."

"And we can also rely on our foresight of history to provide great help to the people we make good friends with, allowing him to take the lead everywhere."

"It's a pity that you ruined all of this with your own hands. Xiaochuan and I hate you to the bone because of your suffering."

He looked at the three people who were in a daze, and then slowly said: "At first, I was thinking, if I really killed you, would it change the history and lead to changes in the future, maybe we would not be born again."

"And since we were not born in the future, we will naturally not be able to come to this era again. Xiao Chuan and I will disappear, and history will return to its original track."

"But later I figured it out. History is written by people. The history that future generations know is all recorded in words by predecessors. How future generations perceive it all depends on how predecessors wrote it."

"Then after I kill you, I will support another person to rise up and let him change his name to Liu Bang, and I can even change my name to Liu Bang."

"Then let a woman change her name to Lu Zhi, marry this Liu Bang, and replace you and establish the Han Dynasty."

"In this way, Han Gaozu is still Han Gaozu, and Empress Lu is still Empress Lu, but those two people are no longer you."

"Then I personally wrote a history book to pass down from generation to generation according to the history I know, so that the history known to future generations is still the original history, and the future has not changed."

Li Mu looked at Liu Bang and the others with a smile on his face, and said, "How? Am I very smart?"

After hearing Li Mu's words, Lu Zhi burst into tears with a "wow", scolding Liu Bang while crying.

Duke Lu was also in tears. Originally, he had a chance to become the head of the country, but because Liu Bang did such a stupid thing and offended someone who shouldn't be offended, all this was for naught.

Liu Bang was different from the two, he didn't show any remorse, instead he shook his head repeatedly and said, "No, no."

"Even if you and Xiaochuan are from after 2000, you have already become history since you came to this era."

"Because if it weren't for you last time, I would have been beheaded because of insufficient corvee. How could there be the later Han Gaozu?"

"The only problem here is your rise. According to the original history, you should never have risen."

There was a look of surprise in Li Mu's eyes, he really deserved to be the one who could laugh at the end, although he was ignorant and incapable of any skill, but his brain was indeed extraordinary.

Not only did he accept his space-time travel theory so quickly, but he also thought of so much in an instant, and basically deduced the truth.

Li Mu praised: "As expected, you are worthy of being the emperor of the Han Dynasty. With this brain, Xiang Yu will not be wronged if he loses to you. It's a pity that you are clever but you were mistaken by your cleverness."

"How can a person with a mandate of destiny die so easily? If it weren't for me and Xiao Chuan, you would most likely choose to run away, and then become a bandit, slowly developing your power."

"In history, you started to rise from the king of the mountain. I remember that there was a general in the Han Dynasty who sold dog meat. He helped you a lot when you were the king of the mountain."

"Because this person also wrote a famous couplet that has been passed down through the ages, which is called 'every time the righteousness slaughters more dogs, most of the ungrateful ones are scholars'."

Liu Bang opened his mouth wide, but couldn't say anything.

Fan Kuai, he has the appearance of the founding general, unfortunately, it is too late to say anything now.

Not only did he ruin his life as an emperor, but he also wiped out the glory and wealth of many people.

He was indeed sorry to Gao Yao and Yi Xiaochuan, but he was also sorry to many people at the same time.

"If you take one wrong step, you will lose everything. From the moment you cheated me and Xiao Chuan, your fate has been broken. Han Gaozu has nothing to do with you, because we are people with more luck than you." .”

"I've told you so much, it's enough to make you understand. In your next life, remember to be a good person who values ​​benevolence and righteousness. Now, it's time to go on the road."

After Li Mu said these words, Liu Bang finally couldn't hold back anymore, and wept bitterly, "You said so much, don't you just want me to regret it? You succeeded."

"I'm not a thing, I'm sorry for you and Xiao Chuan, but Missy is innocent, you let her go, you marry her to another Liu Bang, let her be Empress Lu, I beg you, please... "

Speaking of which, Liu Bang kowtowed desperately on the ground, so hard that the ground was soon stained with blood.

Because the knock was too hard, Liu Bang quickly fell to the ground, still begging weakly in his mouth: "Please let her go, I'm sorry for you, she doesn't know anything, it has nothing to do with her."

Lu Zhi, who was crying like pear blossoms and raining rain, suddenly stopped crying when he heard his words, and turned his head to look at him in a daze.

At this moment, Yi Xiaochuan who never put her in his eyes, but hurt her again and again, gradually faded away in her mind.

It turned out that I and this person were a married couple, and that man was just a passer-by who broke into my life.

That's it, that's it.

Li Mu said in a deep voice: "Liu Bang, do you know? Ever since I realized what kind of person you, the future Han Gaozu, are, I have never looked down on you."

"But today I want to look at you with admiration. After all, you still have a bit of a man's responsibility, and you haven't lost your last dignity."

"Originally, I planned to chop off your head, but based on your last words, I decided to leave you with a whole body."

"But I'm sorry, I can't promise you. If you understand what kind of woman Lu Zhi is, you can understand me."

"The Empress Lu when you were alive, and the Empress Dowager Lu after you died, are stronger than you in terms of wrist and mind, but not weaker. It can be said that half of the great Han Dynasty is supported by her."

"In my eyes, she is a bigger threat than you, so I can't let her live, not to mention, she already knows my biggest secret."

At this moment, Lu Zhi had a bright smile on her face. She kneeled beside Liu Bang, bent down, and let her face be close to Liu Bang.

"Liu Bang, there is no need to ask him. We are a couple destined by heaven. We have made mistakes in this life. At worst, we will start over again in the next life."

"I have failed you in this life, and I have another man in my heart. In the next life, I will be your wife and treat you wholeheartedly."

Hearing Lu Zhi's words, Liu Bang also stopped crying, and instead laughed, saying: "Okay, okay, my life, Liu Bang, has not been in vain. Gao Yao, give us a good time!"

Seeing this, Li Mu turned the hilt of the sword in his hand upside down, instead of killing them with the sword, he stretched out his index finger and pointed at their temples with a yang point, and Lu Gong on the side did the same.

The three died without a sound. Except for the wound that Liu Bang himself knocked out, there were no injuries on the surface of their bodies, but in fact their brains had become a mass of paste.

"If I had known today, why was it in the first place."

Li Mu sighed, summoned the snare killers, and ordered them to bury Liu Bang and Lu Zhi together ten miles to the east.

This is thirty miles east of Xianyang City, and the Changling Mausoleum of the later Han Gaozu is twenty kilometers east of Xianyang City, that is, forty miles.

By burying them there, Li Mu can be regarded as showing his final respect for the performance of these two people before they died.

In the face of death, they finally kept their dignity and did not make him look down on them.

……

During these days when Fusu set up a list for the world, opened the Juxian Hall, and recruited sages from all over the world, the first emperor took the Meng family army out for a tour, in order to frighten the survivors of the six countries and serve as a "platform" for Fusu.

On the day when Shi Huang's parade ended and he returned to Xianyang, a pair of tall and burly uncles and nephews who were full of sturdy aura saw the scene of Shi Huang's outing on the street.

This pair of uncles and nephews is none other than Xiang Liang and Xiang Yu, descendants of the Xiang family, a nobleman from the state of Chu.

Xiang Yu looked at Shihuang's team, with a look of disdain on his face, and hummed: "What's the big deal, when I replace him in the future, I will definitely make my momentum bigger than him."

Xiang Liang's complexion changed, and he shouted in a low voice, "Don't talk nonsense."

"Yu'er, Uncle appreciates your mind and ambition very much, but this is Xianyang City and the land of Qin Kingdom, we must be careful what we say or do, otherwise we will definitely burn ourselves."

Xiang Yu frowned and said, "Didn't uncle always teach me to take rebuilding the state of Chu as my duty? Why did you bring me to apply for the Juxian Hall to contribute to the state of Qin?"

Xiang Liang persuaded him earnestly: "That's right, Uncle taught you this way, but Daqin is still very strong now, we can't start trouble, we can only wait for the time with peace of mind."

"We are now applying for the Juxian Hall. First, we can make friends with heroes from all over the world and descendants of the six countries, so as to prepare for our future."

"Furthermore, young master Fusu is the best candidate for the crown prince. We need to see his details. This is called knowing ourselves and our enemies."

"Thirdly, if we enlist in the Juxian Hall now and serve Fusu, and when Fusu ascends to the throne in the future, the power we can hold will also increase."

"At that time, we will cooperate internally and externally, and the chances of success will be greater."

"Did you see that there are not a few descendants from the six countries who are here today, maybe their purpose coincides with ours."

After listening to Xiang Liang's words, Xiang Yu finally loosened his frown and said, "In that case, let's meet these heroes now."

Xiang Liang said happily: "That's right! Remember, you are not allowed to talk nonsense in Xianyang, let's go!"

The uncle and nephew left side by side, but they didn't notice that at the corner behind them, a man with the appearance of an ordinary citizen was leaning against the wall.

Holding a blank book in his left hand and a pen holder in his right, he was writing vigorously. What was written in the book was the content of the conversation between his uncle and nephew just now, word for word.

And the other person had quietly added the two uncles and nephews when he was writing.

……

Afternoon, Prince's Mansion.

Fusu was sitting behind the desk, flipping through a book, frowning tightly, and a hint of anger could not help showing on his usually gentle and peaceful face.

Li Mu sat beside him quietly, and on the desk in front of him was a stack of books, all of which were records of the words and deeds of the survivors of the Six Kingdoms who arrived in Xianyang during this period.

"Bastard, the father and son of this family are really ambitious." After reading the records in the book, Fu Su angrily smashed the book on the desk.

He is just tolerant by nature, but it doesn't mean he has no temper or anger.

He said to Li Mu with a face full of rejoicing: "Luckily, Gao Qing proposed to set up a trap at the beginning, otherwise I would be deceived by them and do something like raising tigers."

Li Mu sighed, "I would have set my heart to the bright moon, but the bright moon shines on the ditch."

"Young master is dedicated to resolving the hatred of the survivors of the six countries, so that the Great Qin and the world can work together to create a prosperous world."

"But there are always some wolfish and ambitious people who only care about their own small righteousness and forget the great righteousness of the world."

"Fortunately, there are only a few people like the uncle and nephew of the Xiang family. Most of them still really want to join the Juxian Hall and find a job as an official."

This sentence "I would have my heart to the bright moon, but the bright moon shines on the ditch" really touched Fusu's heart, and once again he admired Li Mu's literary talent.

He smiled wryly and said: "But most of them are low-level nobles. They all have high-mindedness and low-handedness. They don't have many talents with outstanding talents. They just want to be a glorious family."

"The adherents of the middle and upper classes of the six countries have never returned to their hearts. My Juxian Hall has almost become a joke. What can I do?"

Li Mu smiled and said, "My lord, you don't have to worry about it. The so-called snake without a head is fine, but if there is only one head and no belly and tail, it is a dead snake, that's even worse."

"When I gather the bottom survivors of the Six Kingdoms, it is equivalent to digging the foundation of the Six Kingdoms. By then, there will only be a group of middle and high-level nobles left, so what can we do?"

"According to my subordinates, the Young Master's Juxian Hall is not only a joke, but it's a very good idea."

Fusu's eyes lit up, and he said happily: "What Gao Qing said is very true, but I am narrow-minded. If so, the Juxian Hall will open as scheduled in three days."

"promise."

Li Mu promised, and then asked: "The uncle and nephew of the Xiang family, do you want to take him down?"

Fu Su pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said: "No need, now that we know their plan, we will not let them succeed."

"But now that the remnants of the six countries are gathered in Xianyang, if we take down the Xiang family and his son at this time, it will do more harm than good."

"Don't pay attention to them for the time being, it's not too late to worry about them after the dust settles."

Li Mu showed a dazed look, clasped his fists and said with a smile: "My lord is wise."

Fusu also had a look of joy on his face, very satisfied with Li Mu.

In fact, of course Li Mu knew that it was not a good time to take down the Xiang family's uncle and nephew. This would make the survivors of the Six Kingdoms realize that they were being watched.

As a result, they will feel insecure and feel distrust and dissatisfaction with Juxiantang.

The reason he asked that question was to let Fusu make his own decision, so as to show Fusu's wisdom and let him know that he is the one who controls the overall situation, not Li Mu.

As a subordinate, you can be very smart, but you must not be smarter than your immediate boss, let alone take over and make decisions for your boss.

Moreover, Li Mu didn't intend to cause accidents to the Xiang family's uncles and nephews at all. On the contrary, he would tell them to leave quickly.

This is not for Xiang Yu.

The Great Qin's million-strong army is strong, and because of his involvement, Meng Tian will not die.

At that time, with just one Yi Xiaochuan, how can he defeat a million Qin troops?

In the original history, if it weren't for Xiang Yu's battle of Julu, which destroyed the Qin Dynasty's 40 troops, how could Liu Bang have the last chance to laugh?

So Xiang Yu can't die for the time being, if he wants to die, he has to wait until after the Qin army is defeated.

As for Yu Ji, he didn't have to think about it, after all, Xiaoyue was also one of Gao Yao's obsessions.

If it really made her "the overlord's spirit is exhausted, how can a concubine survive", then it will be Li Mu's turn to "there is no obsession, and when will the cycle of reincarnation end".
