Pengcheng, the western suburbs, is an abandoned earth temple, located in a dense forest. The usual birds and beasts in the forest cannot be heard here, but a crow flutters its wings and enters through the forest.
There was a flash of white light, and a few black feathers fell down, together with the crow's body cut into four or five pieces, and fell to the ground. Two figures the same color as the bark fell from the branches, rising and falling on the ground like ghosts.
, the crow's body, together with the blood stains and broken feathers on the ground, disappeared, as if nothing had happened.
In the deserted temple, three figures shrouded in black robes were sitting on three sides, while a futon facing the east was empty except for a bronze dragon-shaped mask, which was charred and black. It was placed on it, revealing a trace of
Heavy depression.
Xuanwu said coldly: "Do you know what successor candidates Qinglong left? Baihu, maybe he will reveal it to you."
Bai Hu shook his head: "Although my relationship with him is better than yours, it's not to that level. Besides, if you want to establish an heir, you have to disclose it to the other three people. There is absolutely no reason to tell only me. Since you don't
If you know, then it’s impossible for me to know.”
Suzaku curled up his lips: "Maybe Qinglong was overconfident and thought he could kill Liu Yu with his own hands. He didn't even leave any explanation behind him. That's how he is. He leaves no room for anything and regardless of the consequences. Maybe he was allowed to join our organization in the first place.
It was a mistake from the beginning."
Xuanwu sneered: "What's the use of talking about it now? Even if he can kill Liu Yu, he has already had the intention to leave the organization and does not need to be responsible for the future of our organization. Therefore, even if he is alive,
It’s impossible to decide on a successor. Let’s choose another Qinglong.”
Suzaku shook his head: "We have tried to nominate a new Qinglong before, but each person proposed a candidate, which was not accepted by the other two, so we have been at a stalemate. Besides, the huge intelligence system Qinglong has operated over the years has also failed.
We need someone to inherit, and we cannot just appoint someone to take over. We will discuss this matter later. The most important thing for us now is how to solve the emperor's affairs."
Bai Hu looked at Suzaku: "I just came from Sima Daozi. He has completely delegated power to his son. Yuan Xian went to contact Liu Jingxuan and then got involved with Liu Laozhi. If everything goes well, he
We should be able to control the Beifu Army and at least maintain neutrality."
Xuanwu curled his lips and said: "Is it really a good thing to let Liu Laozhi control Beifu? This person has no loyalty and can change his position at any time. We may not be able to control him."
Zhuque smiled slightly: "With Liu Yu's existence, he can only rely on the strength of the family to stabilize the army. Now that the Xie family is cooperating with us, as long as we can help Xie Yan regain the command of the Beifu, there is no need to worry about Liu Lao
He is disobedient."
Xuanwu shook his head: "I'm more worried that once the Xie family regains military power, their cooperation with us will end. Now that they know the existence of our organization, they may not be able to tolerate us, even if they don't let us stay overnight
By taking away the manor property that the Xie family has owned in Wudi for decades, they also have a reason to eliminate us."
Zhuque smiled and said: "In addition to these land deeds, we also have a large amount of treasures, grain and grass, which are enough to use as capital to raise an army. If it really pisses us off, we might as well liberate those families with the surname of Wu, or arm the Celestial Master Dao
, Xie Daoyun is a smart man and knows our strength. He will not fall out with us before the Northern Expedition is completed. So, at least this time, or in the past few years, they will stand in the same camp as us, such as fighting together this time.
The emperor takes action."
Bai Hu frowned: "Are you so sure that the Xie family also wants the emperor to die? They don't have the land deeds in their hands, so there is no need."
Suzaku sighed: "If the emperor does not die, he will rely on Wang Gong. As long as Wang Gong is around, the Xie family will not be able to regain the commander's seal of Beifu. For this reason, they will definitely cooperate with us this time."
Xuanwu said coldly: "I'm afraid not necessarily, maybe they just want to watch. If the Xie family really wants to help, not even Liu Yu can be persuaded this time. Now Liu Yu has arrived in Jiankang and is preparing to stay in the Wei Palace.
And Zhang Guiren has not yet made up his mind to take action, because he is afraid that Master Suzaku's arrangement may not be successful."
Suzaku smiled slightly: "Do you really think that Liu Yu will fight tooth and nail to protect the emperor? Not to mention whether he has the ability to protect the emperor, even if he does, is it best for him if the emperor is alive?"
Bai Hu said in surprise: "Does Liu Yu also want the emperor to die? It's impossible. Only if Sima Yao is alive can he help Liu Yu realize his wish to defeat us."
Suzaku said coldly: "But the emperor only wants to take back power, not necessarily the Northern Expedition, and Sima Yao is ruthless and uses everyone. Liu Yu knows this very well, and he will never be willing to be manipulated by others.
Chess piece, don't think that Liu Yu is an impulsive and reckless man. If he was really loyal, he wouldn't have kept the secret of our organization for so many years and only revealed it in the third battle of the fighting field. It was obviously after careful consideration.
As a result, everyone in the world now knows that Liu Yu is loyal and patriotic, and no one will care about his private marriage to Murong Lan. In the future, Liu Yu will not need the Northern Expedition to win the hearts of the military, and the revelation of the land deed will win the hearts of ordinary people.
In the hearts of the people, whether the emperor is dead or alive is no longer important to him."
Xuanwu laughed: "Sir Zhuque still understands Liu Yu. If Qinglong had your understanding of him, this would not be the result."
Zhuque sighed: "You are wrong. No one in this world knows Liu Yu better than Qinglong. He knows Liu Yu's true thoughts too well, so he wants to use all means to take his life, because Qinglong wants it."
, is the throne, is the real power, and cannot tolerate the existence of Liu Yu, a hero who can compete with him for the hearts of the people. Since it cannot be used for his own benefit, it must be eliminated. However, in the end, he overestimated himself and underestimated Liu Yu,
On the contrary, I lost my life.”
Bai Hu said coldly: "That's because he fell into your trap and believed in your mechanism skills, but he didn't expect that you had tampered with him in the middle. After decades of fighting, you and him are still separated.
High and low."
Suzaku smiled slightly: "Ambition and greed made him lose his rationality and judgment. Qinglong betrayed our organization and wanted to run Jingzhou and carry out Wang Dun's old deeds. It is destined that he and Liu Yu cannot coexist. He has no confidence to win on the battlefield.
Liu Yu, so this fight is the last chance. If he doesn't kill Liu Yu this time, he will definitely kill the emperor."
