"Putting it on the demon cult?" The prince seemed to have thought of something, and the anger on his face gradually turned into a look of contemplation: "This plan is feasible. Now my father doesn't care much about the affairs of the court, and many things are left to him.
I will handle it with the Minister of Korea and China.
But those old guys are all cunning and cunning. On the surface, they all respect me as the prince and future king. They obey me in many things, but when it comes to military power, they find reasons to shirk each other.
Now that my people have been killed by the demon sect, I want to send troops to exterminate the demon sect. They can't stop pushing back and forth. I can take the opportunity to control more soldiers and horses, and I can gain fame by annihilating the demon sect. There's also this matter.
Since it was the work of the Demon Cult, the deaths of Che Shurong and his daughter will not damage my prestige. It can be said that I achieve multiple things with one stone.
It's just that the Demon Sect is lurking in the dark, and its forces are intertwined. Everyone is cruel by nature, and they must retaliate. If I send out troops to kill the Demon Sect in a big way, the disadvantage is that I will be burned! Especially the Netherworld Sect, everyone is good at concealing assassinations. If they take revenge,
It’s really hard to guard against.”
The scribe shook the gilded paper fan in his hand and said with a smile: "The Nether Sect, the Blood Demon Sect, the Hatred Demon Sect, etc. It's natural for Your Highness to avoid provoking them as little as possible at the moment, leaving it to Si Tianjian and the Tian Yan Sect to deal with the headaches.
Your Highness may wish to consider the Corpse Demon Sect."
"The Corpse Demon Sect?" The prince was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter and said: "The Corpse Demon Sect is a good choice. Their demonic way is eye-catching and it is difficult to hide their whereabouts in the world. Why not?
Hiding in the deep mountains and old forests, you can refining corpses with peace of mind, or you can assist the thieves and appear openly in the world.
If it were eight years ago, I would have been a little more wary if Mr. Li Mo was in charge of the Corpse Demon Sect. Unfortunately, eight years ago, Mr. Li Mo broke the rules, and the supervisor personally led people to kill him. It was later said that Mr. Li Mo broke the rules eight years ago.
The Corpse Demon Sect also started a civil strife in order to fight for power, and its vitality was severely damaged. Now they use Wang Lang to rebel and occupy Nanding Prefecture.
If I use this as an excuse, I can take the opportunity to integrate the troops and horses of the four southwest states. Although the four southwest states are not fertile and rich places, they are vast. If I can take this opportunity to control the four southwest states, I can also increase my power a lot.
Strength. But the Corpse Demon Sect is supported by the Heavenly Corpse Sect..."
Having said this, the prince frowned slightly and lightly ran his fingers across the beard on his upper lip.
"The southwest has always been a borderland. Nanding Prefecture and some counties close to Nanding Prefecture were originally disputed areas. The previous dynasty was the land of Youshan State. It was the founding emperor of Da Qi who expanded the territory and included them in it.
Territory. The sect behind the Great Qi Kingdom is the Tianyan Sect, and the sect behind the Youshan Kingdom is the Tianzhi Sect. This dispute over the southwest border is actually a dispute between the Tianyan Sect and the Tianzhi Sect.
However, the two great sects will definitely not directly intervene in the domain dispute, otherwise once the matter gets serious, it will be difficult to end. So the battles are just for those of us who compete based on our abilities. The Tianzhi Sect will not personally
Sending strong men to fight will only mobilize some strong men from the Youshan Kingdom to assist in the battle. Therefore, Your Highness does not have to worry about the Heavenly Corpse Sect sending strong men." Seeing this, the scribe shook his fan slightly and analyzed.
"That's what you said. After all, we are just pawns!" The prince nodded, with a look of unwillingness on his face.
"A chess piece will eventually become a chess player," the scribe said.
"This matter is still too far away!" The prince waved his hand and said: "By the way, sir, how is the progress of your practice now? How confident are you of inducing thunder to temper your body?"
"Your Highness has given you the Lei Xun Stone as a reward. Now there should be five to five ministers." The scribe replied uncertainly.
"The number of five to five is still a bit off. Sir, you must be eighty or nine percent sure, so that I can feel at ease." The prince frowned slightly and said, "It's just that the Lei Xun Stone is extremely precious, and even I have a hard time getting it."
"The beginning of next year will be the day when the small barrier of wind and thunder in Tianling Mountain will be opened for a period of time. Perhaps Your Highness..." The scribe closed the paper fan in his hand and said with a hint of anticipation in his eyes.
"I will discuss it with them. For my husband, no matter how much money I spend, it is still worth it." The prince said solemnly and sincerely.
"The humble minister must not forget the kindness of His Highness. For His Highness, the humble minister will go through fire and water and work hard without any hesitation!" After hearing this, the scribe quickly knelt down on one knee and said with a moved face.
"Sir, please get up. There is no need to be so polite between you and me." The prince stretched out his hand to help the scribe up, and then gently ran his fingers across the beard on his lips, saying: "The plan of blaming the Corpse Demon Sect is settled, but that
Who could the real murderer be, Mr. Yi?"
After hearing this, the scribe unfolded the paper fan and shook it gently. After a while, he said: "Yi Weichen thinks this is probably done by Qin Jianmei and the prince's enemy."
"Qin Jianmei!" The prince's face darkened slightly when he heard this, and a cold look appeared in his slender eyes.
"That's right, Your Highness, please don't forget that Qin Longmu is Qin Jianmei's nephew since he was a child, and Qin Longmu's youngest son Qin Zaining is a genius that has not been produced in the Qin family for a century. He is only one step away from the great master.
Yao. Once Qin Zaining becomes the great master, then the Qin family will become one with two great masters. Even if Qin Jianmei fails to temper the thunder in the future, the Qin family will not decline.
As a result, the Che family abandoned the dark side and joined forces with the Xie family. The Gan family killed Qin Longmu and his son in the cave world, which was equivalent to crippling the Qin family in one fell swoop. Although this incident was later attributed to the demon general, everyone felt that
He knew exactly what was going on. It was just that the Che family had His Highness behind him, and he also had strength. With no evidence, Qin Jianmei had no choice but to do anything.
But things are different now. Wei Chen heard that the magic power in Qin Jianmei's body is getting stronger and stronger, and it is about to trigger thunder. Moreover, she is old and can no longer delay it. She will definitely survive the thunder disaster in the near future. With her
At this age, even though she has profound magic power and is quite accomplished in thunder magic, her chances of success are very small.
In this case, Qin Jianmei is very likely to attack and kill Che Shurong and his daughter before she can escape the catastrophe. This will not only avenge the Qin family and vent her hatred, but also eliminate a major enemy for the Qin family. Otherwise,
When she fails to overcome the calamity, the Qin family will not be able to get revenge, and since Che Shurong has done what he did, it must be Che Shurong who wants to get rid of the Qin family the most." The scribe analyzed unhurriedly.
"Mr.'s analysis is very reasonable. It is estimated that this matter was probably done by Qin Jianmei. Back then, the Qin family was determined to help the third child. They humiliated me several times. I had to uproot them. And that
Qin Zitang dares to refuse my favor. It is really disgusting. After I destroy the Qin family, I will torture her day and night." The prince said, with a ferocious look on his majestic face.
"After the Qin family is destroyed, His Highness wants to play around with Qin Zitang, which is not what His Highness wants. However, the matter is not urgent. Everything has to wait until Qin Jianmei overcomes the tribulation before making a decision. If she fails, given the current situation of the Qin family,
Power, it will be easy for Your Highness to clean up the Qin family. If she succeeds, Your Highness can only temporarily suppress the thought of destroying the Qin family. But if it really happens, Qin Zitang will have nothing to worry about, but it will be a pity for Longtan, the ancestral land of the Qin family." The scribe said.
.
"That's right, the Qin Family Longtan is what I really want!" The prince said with a hint of greed in his eyes when he heard this: "If I can enter the Qin Family Longtan, my energy and blood will be stronger and surging, and maybe I can still
Inspire supernatural powers.”
"Don't worry, Your Highness, the hope of Qin Jianmei's success is very small. Longtan will definitely fall into the hands of His Highness in the future. Just for the sake of conservatism, Your Highness should be patient. The most urgent task is to send troops to pacify Nanding Prefecture. This matter has been prolonged.
, will not only chill the hearts of the Che family, but also damage the reputation of His Highness." The scribe said.
"In your opinion, sir, if we want to mobilize troops against Nanding Prefecture, who should be sent to governor the troops of the four southwest prefectures?" the prince asked.
"Wei Chen thought it would be more appropriate to send Uncle Qingyuan there," the scribe replied.
Uncle Qingyuan, whose name is Wu Jinjian, is the cousin of the prince, the legitimate son of the uncle of the current dynasty, and the nephew of the queen of the dynasty.
"He is powerful. He has guarded the southwest border with the army before. He knows the situation in the southwest border well, and he has the relationship between his mother and his queen. It should be difficult for the ministers of the DPRK and China to object." The prince nodded.
…
Naturally, Qin Ziling had no idea about the turmoil caused by his killing of Che Shurong and his daughter.
He basically spends every day quietly cultivating in Wuji Hall.
During this period, Qin Ziling went out once. It was because one of his disciples found a good-quality Gengjin evil spirit vein in Qingjun Prefecture.
Qin Ziling took blood essence and introduced the Gengjin evil spirit into his body, and successfully built the first altar in his Dantian.
The altar is made of Fa Yuan as its body, with four golden dragons coiled around the four corners, and it is engraved with various runes of Geng metal magic.
Now, as long as Qin Ziling uses his magic power, the runes on the altar will light up one after another, stimulating the power of Geng Metal between heaven and earth to perform Geng Metal spells.
Therefore, Qin Ziling was already a little master of Qi refining at this time.
Since becoming the little master of Qi refining, Qin Ziling found that the speed of drawing mana from the magic crystal stone has increased significantly. The magic altar is getting bigger and stronger every day, and the other sixteen true essence dragons that were almost reaching their bottleneck have also
Started to grow steadily.
On this day, Qin Ziling was practicing, and Jian Bailou came to visit riding a golden-crowned crane.
"Teacher, why do you have time to visit the students today?" Qin Ziling smiled and introduced Jian Bailou into the hall.
"I received an order from Tian Yan!" Jian Bailou asked with an unexpected answer.
"Tian Yan Order?" Qin Ziling's face changed slightly when he heard this, and then he frowned slightly and said: "That shouldn't be the case. Teacher, you have only been a grandmaster for a few years! Why did the Tian Yan Sect start giving you orders?
"
"Don't forget that there is a Judge's Office in Xiyun Prefecture. On the surface, the Judges of the Judge's Office are officials of the imperial court, but in fact they represent the Tianyan Sect and supervise the Qi Refining Sects all over the world." Jian Bailou said.
"This Zhuge Yunjin is not a kind man. After all, you have helped him out before, so why did you get stabbed?" Qin Ziling said.
"It's his duty, no wonder he is." Jian Bailou waved his hand.
"Has the Master of Xuanwu Valley also received the Tianyan Order?" Qin Ziling knew that there was no point in pursuing Zhuge Yunjin for being dishonest, so he asked the Master of Xuanwu Valley instead.
