Send his former master back to heaven?
Lu Zheng didn't know what to do for a moment, but he was smart enough to figure out what she had done in no time.
"Liu Lanting!"
Lu Zheng pointed at her. He was so angry that his hand was trembling. Jiang Pengji had a smile on her face. She raised her hand unhurriedly and pushed his hand aside.
"What are you trying to say? Are you despicable? Or are you cunning? "She laughed." There's nothing too deceitful in a war. On the battlefield, all kinds of scheming and scheming methods were allowed. The only thing that mattered was who was more skilled. I'm just taking advantage of the situation to achieve my goal. Moreover, I'm giving you a credit so that you can quickly gain a foothold here … "
Lu Zheng said, "Do you think I, Lu Shaoyin, am a fickle and petty person who forgets about morality for the sake of profit?"
Lu Zheng knew what Jiang Pengji had done. It was definitely a trap that could bury An Cui alive.
"I've never doubted your character, but … a fine bird chooses a tree to nest in, and a virtuous official chooses a master to serve. Do you not know what kind of person An Duoxi is? Whether he's worthy of you hanging him with a piece of white silk? " Jiang Pengji said confidently, "If you're a foolishly loyal person, just pretend I didn't say anything. Whether you stay or leave, I'll let you choose …"
Jiang Pengji naturally wanted to recruit Lu Zheng. No one would complain about having too many talented people.
After a while, she would conquer Nansheng and rule over the five countries in the world. She would need more and more people.
Lu Zheng knew her background, so he felt more at ease using her.
He treated the surrendered officials of Langye Academy well, and she was an alumnus of Langye Academy. This was double insurance.
Master Yuanjing had taught at Langye Academy for many years. He had students all over the world and made friends with many famous scholars. With double insurance, it would be much easier to recruit people from this circle in the future. Jiang Pengji naturally would not fall out with Lu Zheng due to all these reasons.
"You're forcing me to betray An Cui!"
Lu Zheng had voluntarily given up on An Cui and Jiang Pengji had forced him to do so. She had even made him the scapegoat for betraying An Cui.
Even if An Cui was a scumbag, Lu Zheng had chosen him.
Even if it was a stone in the latrine pit, Lu Zheng didn't want to be forced to throw the stone back into the latrine pit.
Jiang Pengji said, "How can this be considered as coercion? What I'm doing is a stratagem, a normal confrontation of schemes. If no one in An Cui's camp sees through it, even if they fall into the pit and die, it's their own fault. We can only blame ourselves for being too weak and stupid. How can we blame the enemy for being too strong and smart? "
Lu Zheng took a deep breath and asked, "What did you do to imitate my handwriting?"
Even if Lv Zheng did not like to praise Jiang Pengji, she would open a dyehouse just because he gave her some color, Lv Zheng had to admit that she deserved to be envied by the heavens. She had a talent for imitating others. Based on what Jiang Pengji had just said, it wasn't difficult to deduce that Jiang Pengji must have taken the books he had written recently. Based on the handwriting on them, she imitated the letters to lure An Cui.
As for …
Lv Zheng was not sure what the contents of the letter were and what trap Jiang Pengji had dug.
Jiang Pengji said, "Oh, I'm helping him come up with strategies and share his burdens. Isn't An Cui severely short of rations recently? There's a problem with the logistics rations, and the frontline army is facing the crisis of running out of rations? How can they fight a war when they don't have enough rations? So I imitated your handwriting and tone and came up with a simple idea. I asked him to lead his troops to attack my granary. I was worried that he wouldn't be able to find the way, so I specially drew a simple map. "
Lv Zheng closed his eyes after listening to her.
This was a fatal blow!
"How could An Cui take the bait?"
Jiang Pengji asked in return, "Why not? Shaoyin, do you have any misunderstandings about your own weight? You're Master Yuanjing's student, a top student who graduated from Langye Academy. You've assisted An Cui, a penniless stray dog, to accumulate the wealth you have today. Even if An Cui has given you the cold shoulder over the past two years and even detested you, he will instinctively trust you when he's in a life-and-death situation. Without your assistance, Lv Shaoyin, An Cui would still be a small character leading a few thousand grassroots troops. How could he have the glory he has today? "
Lv Zheng had helped An Cui launch a counterattack once, so he could naturally help him launch a counterattack a second time.
Jiang Pengji said, "Shaoyin, I imitated your handwriting and wrote a wonderful plan. It's bait. How could An Cui not take the bait?"
Lv Zheng was reluctant to admit it, but he had to admit in his heart that Jiang Pengji was right.
An Cui had been forced into a dead end, and Hua Yuan was still stabbing him in the back. He had no other choice but to believe in the plan.
Of course, An Cui was a cautious and suspicious person. He might not believe everything.
"Aren't you afraid of going for wool and coming home shorn? You failed to ambush An Cui, and you'll lose your granary? "
Why did Lv Zheng, Cheng Jing, and the others have a problem with Jiang Pengji?
Did the students of Langye Academy not think highly of this schoolmate?
Purely from the perspective of character, Jiang Pengji was a rather likable person. Even if she was the most despicable, she knew her limits, which became her unique shining point. However, making friends and assisting a vassal were different. The criteria for judging the two were also different.
Friends could be mischievous and mischievous, but the lord could not. Lv Zheng did not know how Wei Ci and the others tolerated it.
For example, this time …
She used her own granary as bait to lure An Cui. If the other party counterattacked, An Cui would not be afraid of anything, but what about her?
Jiang Pengji revealed a somewhat weary and mocking smile.
"Shaoyin, you're underestimating me. I dared to set a trap, so naturally I have something to rely on." She asked in return, "Have you ever seen a banker lose?"
Lv Zheng's heart skipped a beat.
"This chaotic world has lasted for too long. It's time to end it. We'll start with Nansheng, then Zhongzhao. Once we take down these two countries, the remaining two are nothing to fear. Those who once looked down on me and hated me can only watch me ascend to the throne. It's quite satisfying to think about it. "
Lv Zheng knew that Jiang Pengji was not joking.
"What does this world mean to you?"
"We're all old classmates. I won't say pretty things like 'let the people live and work in peace and contentment, and clarify the chaotic world.' Anyway, you can tell that I'm lying." Jiang Pengji said, "As for me, I want those who are dead and alive to open their eyes wide and see who's qualified to be the ruler of the world. Those who aren't convinced should hold it in! At the same time, I'll open their eyes and see what the real golden age looks like. Apart from me, none of them can do it. Not only will the predecessors be left in the dust, but the successors will also not be able to catch up! "
Lv Zheng spat out two words softly.
"Arrogant."
His ambition was written all over his face.
Jiang Pengji made a gesture of shaking off her cigarette smoke. She smiled and raised her eyebrows. "Shaoyin, I'll give you a warning."
Lv Zheng was speechless.
Even though he did not know what "a warning from Zhenxiang" was, he had a feeling that it would not be anything good.
"Recuperate well. I'm going to meet an old friend."
