It was not until about one o'clock in the morning that all the senior officials of the Eastern Palace that Li Tianlan recalled from all over the world gathered in Youzhou.
The gathering place was Prince Yong's Mansion, which was also the wedding room that the Dongcheng family had prepared for him and Dongcheng Ru.
Li Tianlan didn't live here long.
To be precise, I only stayed here briefly in the few days after the chaos in Snow Country ended.
However, there are still people taking care of the place on a daily basis. There are nearly twenty domestic servants in charge of every corner. They are all closely related to the Dongcheng family. The butler and even the Dongcheng Emperor were transferred from the Hidden Dragon Sea.
Yes, the roots are bright and the shoots are red, and the quality is extremely high.
Li Tianlan chose a spacious hall as a temporary meeting room. He sat on the main seat, silently thinking about his conversation with Li Huacheng.
For some reason, when facing Li Huacheng this time, he felt as if he was chatting with Xuanyuan Wushang.
This feeling is very strange, it is a feeling that sounds inexplicable but makes people unconsciously convinced.
This is not the effect of some kind of spiritual force.
It's that the other party clearly told me some key information, but some of the information was bitter and helpless that the other party couldn't express.
He sat silently, recalling every word he said to Li Huacheng.
The first group of people who had already felt the royal palace were sitting quietly with Li Tianlan. The conference room was very quiet, and people did not communicate much with each other. Except for a few people who were familiar with Li Tianlan who first told him
Except for two sentences, everyone was silent most of the time.
Li Tianlan was in a very bad mood.
Everyone can see this.
His face was not gloomy, but his eyes were a little distracted, and he looked completely lost. In this state, no one with a right mind would dare to joke with him.
Similarly, Li Tianlan's condition is also very bad.
His pale face and bloodshot eyes seemed to indicate that he was carrying great fatigue and great mental pressure.
His fingers pressed against his head, and it didn't look like he was exerting much force. However, the slight contact caused a huge vibration that caused obvious ripples in the tea in the entire conference room.
He seemed to have a headache all the time and was beating his head constantly.
Time keeps passing.
Li Tianlan's somewhat lost face gradually turned expressionless.
The atmosphere in the temporary conference room also began to become more depressing.
There are more and more pictures in my mind.
That is the story of Dongcheng Huangtu.
A story that Li Tianlan only knew existed, only knew the general context, and most of the details were unclear.
But this story began to take root in Li Tianlan's mind, and countless details were automatically completed.
These details turned into pictures that impacted his mind. The pictures were clear and realistic, but the logic was completely confusing.
There are countless images in no order at all.
Various memories and conversations also don't match up.
Time also seems to be in an extremely chaotic state.
The memory that came to mind at this second was that he coldly asked Qin Weibai to give him a child.
But Qin Weibai's answer, which looked angry and stubborn, was not talking to him at all, as if he was talking to another person.
In his mind, he drew his sword and sent the sword energy flying towards Wang Tianzong.
But the scene at the next moment turned into one of Gu Xingyun trembling with helplessness and powerlessness amid the flying snow in Kunlun City.
confusion.
All kinds of messy pictures flickered back and forth.
Li Tianlan had no idea what kind of story these pictures were telling, and he couldn't find any supporting point.
He wanted to straighten out the logical relationships bit by bit, but found that there were too many pictures that were constantly flooding into his mind, all experiences that spanned nearly thirty years.
That was another person's life from childhood to adulthood until his death.
Now that picture keeps flashing in my mind, and it is not easy to straighten it out.
What made Li Tianlan's heart even more cold was that as these pictures continued to pour in, Li Tianlan actually felt that everything expressed in the pictures was something he had done before.
This is simply a joke.
He didn't even know the order, cause and effect of those chaotic memories, but he already thought in his heart that he had done it?
Isn't this a joke?
He pressed his head desperately.
The pain in his brain was getting worse and worse, and all the stimulation in his brain seemed to be completely boiling.
The images that kept flooding in my mind did not stop at all, but began to flash faster and faster.
Li Tianlan suddenly began to miss Qin Weibai.
The so-called nostalgia only lasted for a second, and the thought was forcibly deleted by himself.
Then he began to miss Han Xinyan.
Although the little secretary is young, she is indeed a hard worker.
If she had not stayed in the East Palace to hand over to Qin Weibai, if she could stand by her side now, there would be no need for her to attend this meeting.
Han Xinyan can completely chair this meeting on his behalf, and he can rest and sleep peacefully.
After falling asleep, will these inexplicable memories disappear?
He started hitting himself on the head faster and faster.
Everyone in the conference room looked at him uneasily.
In the extremely oppressive atmosphere, a burst of footsteps suddenly sounded from outside the door.
The tired Li Baitian was the first to push open the door of the conference room.
"Tianlan..."
He glanced at Li Tianlan who was sitting in the main seat, was slightly stunned, swallowed back what he wanted to say, frowned and said, "What's wrong with you?"
"fine."
Li Tianlan showed a smile.
No matter what, he would always treat Li Baitian and Ning Qiancheng, the two people who were with him from the very beginning, a little differently.
At this time, the pictures that kept flooding into my memory contained messages from Li Baitian.
In another story, he and Li Baitian are not too familiar. They should have met each other, but I don’t know if they have communicated with each other. The Li Baitian I saw in my memory is already invincible. As for what will happen next, it is still unclear for the time being.
Not sure.
But Ning Qiancheng died in another story.
He looked at those memories and knew that Ning Qiancheng joined the Beihai Wang family with him. The cause of his death was not yet clear, but his death was extremely real.
But now, everything is different.
"sit."
He waved his hand.
Li Baitian was not polite and sat directly on Li Tianlan's left hand side.
Regardless of his relationship with Li Tianlan or his personal strength or potential, he is qualified enough to sit in this position.
Li Baitian is now at the peak of the Thunder Realm, touching the threshold of the Half-Step Invincible Realm. At this level, the potential of Shushan Taixu Sword Intention has almost exploded. Among the four major Shushan Sword Intentions, Taixu Sword Intent is the most powerful.
The stamina can be said to be the most sufficient.
Li Baitian's future achievements will almost certainly exceed those of the saints. For him, the invincible realm is just the beginning, and even the peak invincible realm is just the scenery along the way.
There is no doubt that if Li Baitian is given another ten years, no, even just five years, he will become a true pillar of the East Palace.
Behind Li Baitian are Ning Qiancheng and Yu Qingyan.
Then there are people like Bai Youming, Xu Chu, and Du Hanyin who have been around him from the very beginning.
Then came Lin Youxian who came over from the Lin Clan headquarters.
Then came the Assassins of the City of Sighs.
Cool breeze, flowing clouds, and deep dreams.
There were more people in the second group than in the first group. It was not until the end that Huangfu Qiushui and Huangfu Yi and his daughter came in one after another.
Li Tianlan glanced at Huangfuyi and raised his eyebrows slightly, but said nothing.
As the second group of people entered, the conference room began to fill up.
Li Tianlan glanced around, was silent for a while, and suddenly said: "I have decided to leave the East Palace and Tiannan. You should all know the news. If you have anything to ask, please ask now."
There was silence in the conference room for a moment, people exchanged looks and said nothing for a while.
"Are you sure you want to come to Youzhou?"
It was Li Baitian who took the initiative to speak.
He looked at Li Tianlan and said seriously: "Youzhou is actually very good, and the position of the God of War to protect the country is also very attractive. If it were before, we would have fought for this position no matter how hard we fought.
But things are different now. There is no problem for the God of War who protects the country to concurrently serve as the master of the Eastern Palace.
If you give up the latter, it means that the dynasty of the dark world, the huge wealth, the world-shaking status of one person, and your previous dreams and ambitions are all no longer important, right?"
Everyone's eyes were focused on Li Tianlan.
Dreams and ambitions.
This is not just Li Tianlan’s ambition.
It's also theirs.
It is precisely because of this that the atmosphere in the conference room seemed so awkward.
No one can figure out why Li Tianlan left the East Palace. Now various forces in the dark world are also discussing this matter.
The death of Kuangtu Li may be a reason.
But this reason obviously cannot convince everyone.
Because Li Tianlan left on his own initiative.
If he doesn't want to leave, no one can force him to leave now.
Even if he killed Kuangtu Li.
Just pay some price.
Even Guo Wentian, who was jumping up and down, all he wanted was to make Li Tianlan pay the price.
In the end, Li Tianlan didn't even want the East Palace. If this was the price, then the price was too high.
To put it bluntly, it is not worth exchanging the power of the Eastern Palace for Li Kuangtu's life.
No one will think it's worth it.
No matter how strong Kuangtu Li is, he is not worth the East Palace.
Especially when Li Kuangtu made a breakthrough but was still defeated by Li Tianlan in the alliance operation.
It's really not necessary.
So, this is definitely not the reason for Li Tianlan to leave the East Palace, so why?
With everyone's attention focused, Li Tianlan nodded quietly: "Yes."
He paused and said calmly: "It's not important anymore."
"Tsk..."
Li Baitian shook his head: "Okay, I'll come to Youzhou with you, but I think you should go to Tiannan now to beat up the first deputy palace master Ma Si."
"Um?"
Li Tianlan raised his eyebrows and looked at Li Baitian.
Li Baitian took out a resignation report from his pocket and kept it on the table. He cursed loudly: "That bastard rejected my resignation application before I came here. He didn't agree with me leaving. No, he didn't agree with us."
Most people left, so what now?
If we don't do this to him, will he really think that we can't lift the knife?"
