Chapter 373 A corner of the dispute hides the right way [two in one]
Seeing such a scene, Chen Cuo didn't say much and said to the people in front of him: "I came to Huaiyin because I have something to do. Now that the Yin Division matter is over, I will leave first."
The young man in Tsing Yi wanted to say something more when he saw this.
As a result, the Taoist Duan Jiujiu took the lead and said: "My Taoist friend and the Prince of Nankang County are blood brothers. How can others prevent you from meeting him? Although I have important things to do here, I still have to wait for my fellow Taoist brothers to meet."
Later, let’s talk about other things.”
As soon as he said this, not to mention the man in green, even the monk could only smile and nod, but his eyes flashed, and it was obvious that he had other plans.
Chen Cuo cupped his hands, took one step forward, and reached the door of the General's Mansion.
In front, stood a Taoist priest.
He refused to give in and said: "Your Majesty, what our holy religion does is actually to benefit others and ourselves. Don't stop us from doing it just because you listened to the prejudiced words of the Immortal Sect. You must know that our actions
So standing here, I am actually optimistic about Chen! I think Chen can be the master of the world!"
It is that Zhi Yuanzi
"There are a lot of strange phenomena in the city. It should be caused by Chen Fangqing's fighting with others. Although there are comments from Zhi Yuanzi, you can't trust others in everything. In addition, I am uneasy. It should be a premonition, so I still have to do it first.
A safe one.”
In the general's mansion, Jing Huanian opened the door to the back house while thinking.
In his hand, he held a glass of wine.
A glass of bloody wine.
"The Taoist priest is here."
In the room, Chen Fangtai got up from the bed, pushed away the two innocent women with graceful figures and gauze draped in gauze beside him, stood up without any clothes on, and said with a smile without hesitation: "Why are you here at this time?"
Jing Huanian had just said goodbye to the Prince of Nankang County, but he turned around and ran back again.
But he also had a calm expression on his face and said: "Here again in a hurry, disturbing the king's elegance. It's a sin of a poor man!"
Chen Fangtai, under the service of several maids, put on his robe, wrapped himself up, and sat on the chair next to him. He pointed to the chair next to him and said: "What's wrong with the Taoist Master? Come back in a hurry.
There must be something important, please sit down."
After saying that, his eyes fell on the wine glass in Jing Huanian's hand, and he said, "Is it related to my second brother?"
"Your Majesty knows things like a god!" Jing Huanian did not sit down, but took two steps forward and handed over the glass of wine, "The Marquis of Linru County provoked practitioners in Huaiyin City, and the fighting spread to the whole city.
, I think Wang Shangfang just felt it, there were several tremors in the city, and there was a lot of movement..."
When Chen Fangtai heard this, he shook his head and laughed, saying: "I was busy with other things, so I didn't notice the movement in the city. I thought it was a movement in the bed."
"..."
Jing Huanian was speechless for a moment, but after all, he had rich experience and immediately adjusted his mood and said: "Although the king didn't notice it, this is not a trivial matter."
"Of course it's not a trivial matter! He used to be honest and cautious, but he didn't dare to go west when I told him to go east. Now that he's here, he doesn't come to see me first but wants to fight with others. This is a wild temper. No.
If you take my brother seriously, maybe you really have his heart and feel that I can't control him." After Chen Fangtai said this, he pointed to the wine glass, "This glass of wine is the hard work of all the people mentioned by the Taoist priest before, right?
"
"That's right! This is the essence of the Great Formation of Ten Thousand People's Sacrifice to Heaven. It's a pure brew. It's a bit more wonderful than fine wine. Because it's made from nature, there's no fragrance. But once you drink it, you'll know how wonderful it is!"
Hua Nian said seriously: "Once you drink this water, you will instantly win the hearts and minds of the people in the Huaisi land. With the support of the people, the fortune of the dynasty will naturally come. Not only will it lay the foundation for the king's hegemony, but it will also be able to ascend to heaven in one step and achieve enlightenment."
Immortal!"
"Get the Tao and become an immortal!" Chen Fangtai's eyes lit up, full of greed, but he still asked, "The Taoist Master said before that the time has not come to lay the foundation stone, so now is the time?"
"It's not the right time, but the Marquis of Linru County is here, so we must make some changes to avoid unnecessary complications. After all, the king's destiny is to rule the roost in troubled times!" After saying this, Jing Huanian saw Chen Fangtai frown slightly.
Chen Fangtai has experienced the ups and downs of officialdom to some extent. When he heard this, he asked: "But, what is the price?"
Jing Huanian knew his worries and said: "If you drink it in advance, you won't be able to do its full work for a while, but you can slowly modify it in the future and it will still be perfect."
Seeing that the greed in Chen Fangtai's eyes was getting stronger, he continued: "The world has been in chaos. If the king does not use his magical power as soon as possible, it may be too late when he encounters a crisis in the future. This is why the poor Taoist took advantage of the situation when he saw the arrival of the Marquis of Linru County.
The reason for this glass of wine."
"That's it." Chen Fangtai took the wine glass and observed it carefully, his heart was ready to move. Although he knew that drinking it in advance would have hidden dangers, and over the years, he had also been vaguely aware that this man had the intention to take advantage of him, but he couldn't restrain it at all.
Live with greed!
After a few glances, Chen Fangtai seemed to be possessed, staring at the scarlet wine with a look of intoxication, and slowly raised the cup.
Jing Huanian had a smile on his face and a look of anticipation in his eyes.
The surrounding land trembled slightly.
Deep in the earth's veins, there is gurgling blood flowing, revealing a strong smell of blood, and all kinds of roars and wailings are constantly coming from it!
"Drink quickly, drink quickly..."
The look of expectation in Jing Huanian's eyes became more and more intense, and even the immortal aura from his body dissipated a lot.
Seeing it, the wine glass had reached Chen Fangtai's lips.
at this time.
"If I were you, I wouldn't drink anything of unknown origin."
Chen Cuo's voice came from the side.
His voice was not loud, but it had a penetrating power that could pierce his thoughts and made Chen Fangtai sober up. The intoxication in the latter's eyes faded, and the latter frowned instinctively.
"Second brother, since you are here, why..."
He put down his hand and followed the sound and looked over. What he saw was the figure of Chen Cuo walking through the air. Behind him, there was a Taoist priest whose whole body was shining with the brilliance of magic.
Shocked, Chen Fangtai took a deep breath, unable to say the next words.
Beside him, Jing Huanian showed some anger in his eyes, but he quickly put it away and turned around to look at the visitor with a calm expression.
With just one glance, he could tell that Zhi Yuanzi, whom he relied on for support, must have used magic and magical powers to stop Chen Fangqing, but failed.
Thinking in his mind, he saluted immediately and said: "I have met the Marquis of Linru County. I am so polite. I have admired his name for a long time."
"You must have been calculating for a long time." Chen mistakenly glanced at him, but his gaze fell on Chen Fangtai without stopping.
Among Chen Fangqing's remaining memory fragments, there is Chen Fangtai's voice and appearance, but it is separated by a layer, so this is the first time Chen Cuo has seen this person in person.
Before that, in Chen Fangqing's memory, he was a typical clan scum who did all the stupid things that royal relatives could do in the history books.
But when he actually saw it, Chen Cuo had to admit that at least Chen Fangtai had a good look. Not only was he handsome, but he had the nobility of being born in the royal family, the grace of having been in a high position for a long time, and the combination of having practiced boxing since he was a child.
The body and bones have always been pampered, so the skin is fair, and anyone who looks at it will say that he is talented.
"No wonder the successive emperors of the Chen Kingdom knew what Chen Fangtai was doing, but still trusted him, and continued to entrust him with important tasks even after he kept screwing up things. This blood connection is certainly the main reason.
I’m afraid I’ll get a lot of points for having such a good skin.”
Thinking like this, Chen Cuo's eyes slowly focused on the glass of wine and narrowed his eyes.
The surrounding land trembled slightly.
Chen Fangtai's heart suddenly tightened.
Originally, he felt unhappy when he saw that Chen Cuo did not respect him as much as before. Now that he saw Chen Cuo staring at the cup in his hand, he felt disgust in his heart.
Over the years, all the rhetoric instilled by Taoists such as Jing Huanian could not help but come to his mind.
"Could it be that he really covets my things? Not only does he care about my authority and title, but he also wants to compete for my fortune in the immortal family? Is his opportunity to practice really mine?"
Thinking like this, Chen Fangtai was naturally wary and angry. He shook away the shock in his heart and said, "Fang Qing, your attitude is a bit disrespectful. I am your brother, and you are a successful monk, but you have such a bad moral code."
, how can we cultivate ourselves despite being humble and far away?"
When Chen Cuo heard this, he looked back and said with a smile: "Don't worry, the thing in your hand is a bit stronger than poison. Since I seek my own way, I won't touch it. As for the so-called dignity and inferiority,
No need to mention it."
There was a certain rhythm in his words that spread into Chen Fangtai's heart and shook his spirit.
"What do you mean by this?" Chen Fangtai's heart was shaken, his eyes became clearer again, he tasted the unusual meaning, and subconsciously glanced at Jing Huanian.
After all, they are also brothers. Although they have not seen each other for several years, they are estranged, but Chen Cuo's words shocked his soul and made him suspicious.
Seeing this, Chen Cuo said bluntly: "With such an uncertain mind, you may not be able to even take the first step. If you drink this water rashly, your mind will be contaminated and your mind will be polluted, and you will inevitably become a puppet in the future."
"Presumptuous! Why are you talking to your brother?" Chen Fangtai's face became increasingly ugly: "Speak clearly! What does this mean?"
"Your Majesty, this is wrong."
At this time, Jing Huanian finally spoke: "I'm afraid there is some misunderstanding."
"Taoist Master, please stop talking first." Chen Fangtai's face was gloomy and he just stared at Chen Cuo, "Let him speak!"
Jing Huanian's brows also wrinkled.
"Since you asked, I naturally have to say it," Chen Cuoze still smiled and said: "Originally, I was still wondering why this land in Huainan was being watched by all parties. Only when I came to this mansion did I finally understand.
…”
He stepped on the bluestone beneath his feet.
"It's because of the dispute."
"Dispute?"
Chen Cuo nodded and said: "Right now, there are two big disputes in China. One is the Hedong line where Qi and Zhou are fighting; and the other is the land of Huaisi where Qi and Chen are fighting fiercely. And Bi
Hedong is currently in a state of anxiety, but the dispute in Huainan has come to an end."
Chen Fangtai sneered and said: "Qi State is fighting on two fronts and has too much time to take care of itself. However, our Da Chen inherits the orthodoxy. Huainan is the hometown of our Da Chen. The Lord of Qi can't do anything, so he is naturally honest. But unlike what you did before
What's the connection between these words? Do you still want to teach me the art of military warfare? How many military books have you read and how many times have you led soldiers?"
Chen Cuo shook his head and said: "Strife and fighting are great conflicts, great disasters, the disgrace of the people, and the calamity of the dynasty. But they are also the ladder and guillotine for princes and generals. Changes in the general trend of the world often come from
The killings, running away, and misery that started in each dispute are all integrated into this place of disputes and settled at the feet of you and me, that's why we are remembered!"
After a pause, he looked at the two Taoists Zhi Yuanzi and Jing Huannian, and said seriously: "This place is a microcosm of the world. It can also see the future trends and affect the rise and fall of Qi and Chen. That's why they value this place so much."
!”
Chen Fangtai seemed to understand, but felt something was wrong.
Chen Cuo looked around at this time and said: "The blood on the general's mansion is getting thicker and thicker. Someone wants to pull out your luck and use it as a source of spiritual practice. You have been sold by someone and you have to help others pay for it."
."
"You!" Chen Fangtai's expression was gloomy and uncertain. It could be seen that Chen Cuo's eyes were like stars. He couldn't help but look at Jing Huanian with doubts.
Jing Huanian was not in a hurry and said calmly: "Chen Fangtai is the king of Nanchen County and is one with the country. If the Chen Kingdom is destroyed, we will be connected with it, and it will also decline! It is precisely because we are optimistic about the Chen Kingdom and hope that Chen Guo can make a big move.
Restore the Han Dynasty to the world, so that we can also use it to enter the palace and restore the ancient glory!"
Chen Cuo smiled and said: "I didn't expect you to be so optimistic about Chen Guo. If it is like what you said, once Chen Guo is defeated, due to this combination of fate, he will also be implicated. It is indeed a big bet, but if it is discussed
The bloodline is distant, and King Nankang’s lineage is a distant one after all, so why do you waste your energy on Chen Fangtai? This has taken several years."
"Compared to the Thousand Years of Destruction of the Holy Religion, what does a few years mean?" Jing Huanian looked as usual, "The Holy Religion is based on creation and the righteous way of heaven and earth. It should have been manifested in the world, but now it has to hide here and there.
Acting in secret, the root cause is nothing more than the four words "successful kings lose bandits". However, although the ancestors failed, they continued to pass on the inheritance. It is better than the Yuanshi Tao that was changed from cage to bird. Junhou, your practice is not cultivation at all.
Zhidao, and the clan of Chen Guo, you and I should not be enemies."
Chen Cuo pointed to the surroundings, "You and I are cultivators who have supernatural powers. We can go to high and deep places and even overturn rivers and seas, but in the final analysis we are just two people. Whether it is the Immortal Sect, the Tao of Creation, or the Buddhist Sect, this monk
Can there be dozens of people in total? Hundreds of people? How does it compare to the people in the world? They haven't spoken yet, so why are you rushing to conclusions?"
Seeing the change in the other party's expression, he said: "Okay, put away the high-sounding and interest-related rhetoric for now. I only ask you one thing, this world is unified, towards you, towards the Tao of Creation, towards the immortal sect, and towards the Buddhist sect."
, and even to overseas casual cultivators, what benefits does it have, and why do they need to be mixed in with those who are on the pole?"
Jing Huanian frowned but did not answer.
But a voice came from behind Chen Cuo
"Amitabha, the purpose of this Fulong Court is to establish the orthodoxy. Only with orthodoxy can we spread the Dharma to the world! Let's fight for the opportunity to gain a glimpse of the Tao!"
