In June of the 15th year of Chenghua, after Wang Zhi said goodbye to Sang, he led his elite troops to Liaodong to investigate the sudden change in Liaodong.
Wang Zhi also followed Sang's instructions and took his dog Xiaoyang with him.
It has to be said that Wang Zhi's methods are indeed cruel.
Even before he arrived, the reputation of Xichang Changgong had already spread throughout Liaodong.
Therefore, the censors, chief officials, and even the generals guarding the gate were all very afraid.
That is to say, while dealing with the problem in Liaodong, one night, Wang Zhi suddenly discovered that there was an extra letter on his desk.
"Um?"
After taking off the envelope, he opened it and took a look:
"I know you are cultivating the corpse-resolving dragon jade, and I can provide you with the aura of war disaster to help you achieve your wishes faster."
"The person who left the message is Huashen Palace Huadaolou."
Wang Zhi's eyebrows skipped a beat.
The name Huadaolou was not unfamiliar to him.
After all, the main culprit of Zhu Yun's resentment and letting Li Zilong sneak into the palace were all the tricks of the mysterious Lord of the Flower God Palace.
Even after the Li Zilong incident broke out, the imperial court once traced the Huashen Palace, but found that the Huashen Palace was like a mirror, and could not be found!
"Flower God Palace."
"Huadaolou."
Wang Zhi's eyes had a hint of danger.
Obviously, the most important thing was known to Huadaolou, so he couldn't just sit idly by.
Immediately, he wrote down the meeting place of Hanadaolou Yanming, and finally burned the letter to ashes.
After midnight, when everyone had fallen into a deep sleep, Wang Zhi quietly came to the place he was talking about.
It was a boat next to the lake.
At this moment, a young girl was standing on the bridge, holding a blood-red oil-paper umbrella. Her lips were red and her teeth were white, but she exuded an evil temperament.
"Are you Hanadaolou?"
Wang Zhi asked coldly, holding the long knife at his waist with one hand.
The girl smiled slightly:
"No."
"Huadao Lou is my brother, and I am his sister Hua Wuchang, who is also the second palace lord of Huashen Palace."
"You are indeed very punctual."
"Originally I thought you wouldn't come."
"But my brother said you will definitely arrive."
With that said, Hua Wuchang led the way.
Wang Zhi snorted coldly and followed Hua Wuchang into the boat.
Unexpectedly, the seemingly narrow boat turned out to be a whole otherworld of wonder.
The moment you open the door and enter, you will find a spacious and magnificent room inside.
In front of the round table, a man with a slightly pale face and a bookish look sat there.
Seeing Wang Zhi coming, the man stood up slowly and raised his hands:
"In Huashen Palace Huadao Building, I met Mr. Wang Zhi, the Duke of Xichang Factory."
Seeing that there was a puppy in Wang Zhi's arms, Huadaolou couldn't help but his eyes lit up:
"This puppy... seems special?"
Wang Zhi slowly sat down:
"Since you asked me out, then make some conditions."
"What do you want."
Huadaolou smiled slightly:
"I... want more people from Huashen Palace to enter the imperial court."
Wang Zhi frowned:
"impossible!"
Huadaolou waved his hand:
"Mr. Factory Master, please don't refuse in a hurry."
"I know what your lord is thinking."
"In order to make the present Majesty inseparable from the imperial master, the factory master has blocked almost all the paths of all the alchemists in recent years."
"Almost all the people put into the palace are just a bunch of wine bags and rice bags, and they won't be able to create a good atmosphere."
"However, compared to making His Majesty inseparable from the Imperial Preceptor, isn't the Imperial Preceptor's body the most important thing to the Factory Master?"
"Although I don't know the specific reason, the factory owner, in order to gather the corpse to dissolve the dragon jade, has made such a series of accusations..."
"Those who are executed now are those whom the emperor himself cannot stand."
"But once all the officials the emperor dislikes are dead, the value of Xichang will not be so important."
"If the speed is slowed down, the military power required to dismantle the Dragon Jade will not be able to keep up."
"It's a conflicting choice."
"And the most important thing is, the body of Master National Master... haha..."
"The longer it takes, the harder it will be to recover."
"Isn't this what the factory owner is most worried about right now?"
Wang Zhi's eyes were dark.
Although he didn't want to admit it, Wang Zhi knew that this Huadao Building was not simple.
Not to mention, being able to investigate clearly what happened in the palace.
Moreover... he also took control of his own movements in Liaodong.
Moreover, being able to sit in front of him so grandly, it seems that this Huadaolou also has absolute confidence and can compete with him.

Whether it's personal conduct or...the elite subordinates!
And the most important thing is, what Hanadaolou said is indeed correct.
For him, although he wanted power in his heart, nothing was as important as Sang's body.
For this reason, even if he was repeatedly told to kill someone, he could ignore it.
Seeing that Wang Zhi did not refuse, Huadaolou understood that this matter had to be discussed.
Immediately, Huadaolou smiled and said:
"Otherwise, so be it."
"I also have some contact with the Haixi Jurchen tribe."
"During this period, they have been restless and wanted to interfere with the Ming Dynasty's frontier fortress."
"I can... take this opportunity to help Mr. Factory Master and make a big move."
"For example, if you let some disobedient censors and generals die, you can use the excuse to raise weapons here."
"If this is accomplished, let three people from our Flower God Palace enter the palace."
"In contrast, the power of military disaster belongs to you, Mr. Factory Master."
Wang Zhi tapped the table lightly.
The Haixi Jurchens, one of the three major Jurchen tribes, were indeed a considerable threat to the Ming Dynasty's frontier fortresses.
If you cooperate in this matter, your position will be more stable.
Taking this opportunity to eliminate dissenters will also be beneficial to yourself.
After thinking about it, Wang Zhi found that he had no reason to refuse.
After all, the emperor's life and death was not important to him at all.
After figuring this out, Wang Zhi smiled and said:
"Okay, then... I'll wait for the good news!"
…
In the palace, Sang did not know that Wang Zhi had cooperated with Huashen Palace.
However, he also heard the information about the sudden uprising among the Haixi Jurchens.
On this day, Sang was at his residence, sewing brand new court clothes for Wang Zhi, and waiting for Wang Zhi to leave.
And this time, more than half a year passed directly.
From the scorching heat to the snowy weather, Sang, whose body was weakening day by day, closed his eyes and adjusted his breath in the courtyard.
In the sea of consciousness, Qingran couldn't help but said:
"Mr. Sang, His Majesty's favor towards you has been declining day by day. After the elixir that gave him a long life was handed over to him, he became even more unscrupulous."
Sang shook his head:
"Zhu Jianshen finally started to slack off in politics."
"But...I don't want to worry about this matter."
"I have put enough energy into Zhu Jianshen."
"Counting the time, Wang Zhi will also be able to survive the catastrophe."
"As long as Wang Zhi is over, even if he resigns, I will still be able to protect him for the rest of his life."
"What happens to the Ming Dynasty then has nothing to do with me."
"My destiny has already ended since the Battle of Jingnan. To intervene so forcefully till now is to show the utmost kindness and righteousness!"
Just as he was talking, Sang suddenly frowned and spit out a mouthful of blood!
"Mr. Sang, your injury!"
Sang showed a hint of surprise:
"It's not my injury!"
"Something happened to Xiaoyang, who condensed my soul!"
"So, Wang Zhi..."
There was a look of panic in Sang's eyes.
At this time, he took out the copper coins and began to calculate.
After watching the coins falling one after another, what appeared was - a big disaster!
At this moment, Sang's face changed drastically and he stood up instantly.
"How is this possible!"
"Longevity means good luck! Peaceful buckle! Plus I made a small ocean with stones from Long live mountain!"
"At critical moments, Xiaoyang can die for you!"
"How come it's still so dangerous!"
In the sea of consciousness, Qingran said quickly:
"Mr. Sang, calm down first!"
However, at this time, Sang couldn't listen at all!
"no!"
"I have to go see it!"
"If there is something wrong with Wang Zhi...how can I be worthy of him!"
Qingran said helplessly:
"Mr. Sang."
"Not to mention that Liaodong is very far away from here."
"Speaking of your current physical condition, even if you use magic, when you get there, then..."
Sang Que said: "There is another way!"
"Qingran, you recover immediately, and then you take me there!"
Qingran was stunned and immediately said:
"Mr. Sang, it can't be done!"
"I can indeed recover immediately. But... if we want to ensure that Concubine Wan Gui is not damaged, you need to bear this part of the consumption."
"By then...your body..."
"It doesn't matter, I can hold on!" Sang Ning said: "Now, nothing is as important as Wang Zhi's safety!"
"Moreover, if the Haixi Jurchen riots are not subsided because of Wang Zhi, the emperor will definitely take the opportunity to blame!"
"If this happens, the consequences will be disastrous!"
"quick!"
In the sea of consciousness, Qingran was slightly stunned, and then showed a wry smile.
I wondered why the father and son were so similar.
For the sake of the other party, he even risked his life.
Immediately, Qingran shook his head, spread his wings, and began to quickly absorb fortune to heal his injuries.
In an instant, Sang trembled all over, feeling an unprecedented pain, as if his whole body had been hit by a heavy hammer.
He fell to the ground with a pop, his face flushed red, and veins bulging on his forehead and neck.
Sang held on to the carpet tightly, not letting himself make a sound.
Because his current position is indeed embarrassing, he cannot show any signs of weakness before Wang Zhi is safe. Otherwise, in such a palace that eats people without spitting out bones, it will only be a matter of time before the emperor gradually distances himself from him.
In the world of consciousness, Qingran couldn't bear to look at Sang's appearance.
However, once things begin, there is no turning back.
…
On the other side, Liaodong border town.
In the snowy field, everything you see is a dazzling scarlet color.
In this battle, Wang Zhi personally fought, but because the generals in the border towns were uneven and the soldiers were empty in numbers and strength, the battle was defeated!
"Ahem!"
Wang Zhi was covered in blood, and his vision began to wander.
"Xiao...Yang..."
The weak inquiry was answered by a crisp cry.
Wang Zhi suddenly laughed.
"Little guy, run quickly..."
"You... you were given to me by my father... personally... nothing can happen to you..."
