I was not the only one who noticed this situation. Zhou Yin and Bei Liu also quickly came over. Bei Liu asked with a surprised look on his face: "What is this, the hall master?"
I said: "Something is going to happen in Xishan County. Go and find Zhou Li! I have something to ask him!"
Beili nodded and left immediately.
At this time, all my companions gathered around, and I explained to everyone in detail what Qiu Zhan had just told me, including my jade pendant's reaction!
After I finished speaking, Chai Min said: "With such a big thing going on, what's the use of asking Beili to find a soft-hearted prince? It's best for us to leave here as soon as possible. Anyway, Qiu Zhan and Zheng Runxiu, we
I’ve seen you all, why are you still here?”
Indeed, according to the current situation, there is no need for us to stay here. The situation in Xishan County cannot be changed in a day or two, and it is futile for me to stay here.
Before I could say anything, Kailong also said: "I'm afraid it's too late for us to leave now."
Indeed, with such a big battle, the opponent will definitely not let us go easily.
At this time, I remembered again the letter He Jiang sent to Qianyingjun when we left, and asked Qianyingjun: "Did He Jiang reveal any information or give you any hints when he sent you the letter?"
Qianyingjun shook his head and said: "Chen Yu, don't think too much. I knew about this matter later than you. If you didn't tell me just now, I still don't know what happened."
At this time, Nangong Fancong also touched the teardrop gem on his wrist and said: "Chen Yu, have you noticed that the night sky in Xishan City is a little strange tonight."
Strange?
Hearing what Nangong Fan said, I got up and walked into the yard, then raised my head and looked into the sky. As a result, I found that there was not a single star in the sky. What was going on? It was not cloudy today.
There are no dark clouds in the sky. What is it that covers the stars in the sky?
Looking at the dark sky, I frowned.
I tried to use the star map to perceive the starry sky. The starry sky was still there, but the power of the stars was blocked. The power of the stars in the vast sea of stars could not cover Xishan City.
Just as I was looking up at the night sky, Qianyingjun walked up to me and said: "Then Yan Jin stopped directly in Jiuhengzhou. Did he not go back to Xishan County with us? Did he know what was going to happen here?
Have you heard anything?"
I thought for a moment and said, "I'm not sure, but it is indeed possible."
Before I could continue, Beili and Zhou Li rushed over from a distance. When they came to me, Zhou Li was busy saluting again. I said directly: "No, can you tell me what this is?"
As I said that, I pointed to the sky.
Zhou Li followed my finger and glanced at the sky without saying anything.
I continued: "Zhou Li, you seem to be ignorant and inactive, but I know these are just appearances. You may know better than anyone else what is going to happen here, right?"
Zhou Li smiled and said: "Prince Chen, you think too highly of me. I am just a small county prince. It is impossible to change my fiefdom in this life. I just want this to never happen again in Xishan County before I die."
It will be fine if there is any war."
I said: "The fourteen states and counties in the northwest are intricately organized. They are able to build the most prosperous city in the northwest in such a chaotic situation, and they are still lightly armed. You are very skillful and don't have to be too humble. Don't you want to
There is chaos in Xishan County, so you should tell me what happened here. If something happens to me in Xishan County, do you know what this means?"
Zhou Li said: "I know! I, as the county king, must have come to an end!"
I said: "More than that, everything today is caused by the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance. If I die here, the Imperial Power and the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance will completely break up!"
Zhou Li smiled and said: "Don't worry, my father will never break up with the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance because of a prince, even a first-class prince. I once had an uncle who also sat in your position. You should know, right?
The first-class prince who was previously named a prince and has been in power for more than a hundred years!"
I said, I've heard of it.
Zhou Li said: "My uncle's death back then was inextricably related to the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, but in the end, the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance is still the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, and the imperial power is still the imperial power. The relationship between the two has always been tense, but it will never be the same.
It will break up."
"Unless one day they assassinate my father, otherwise it won't matter who the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance kills!"
Hearing Zhou Li say this, I couldn't help but take a breath. It seems that I have always misjudged my status in the human race.
I turned around to look at Zhou Yin and Bei Li. It was obvious that I was asking them if they knew what Zhou Li had said.
Zhou Yin said: "The death of the prince back then was indeed a bit strange, but it was a secret of the royal family, and outsiders had no right to interfere, so it has always been a secret!"
Zhou Li continued: "I have always thought that Prince Chen is very wise and can easily see through this situation in Xishan City, and then he will not come in again. Such a disaster will be avoided, but now it seems that I have thought too much, Prince Chen
Not only did he get into this pocket with his companions, but he also didn’t realize it until this moment!”
At this time, Qiu Zhan on the side felt a little embarrassed and said: "I said it too late. I always thought that He Jiang was just intentional. We just need to be careful, so I didn't say anything at first. I didn't expect that things would be like this."
serious!"
I said to Qiu Zhan, let Qiu Zhan not blame himself.
Then I made an invitation gesture to Zhou Li and asked him to return to the banquet hall.
Entering the hall, after Zhou Li found a place to sit down, I continued to ask Zhou Li: "You know a lot of things. Now I have a few questions for you! I don't care what your position will be or which side you are on, but
I hope you can answer me honestly, just for your royal family!"
Zhou Li smiled, with a hint of contempt in his eyes, which was contempt for the imperial power.
I frowned and asked Zhou Li: "The first question is, those people from the Nandong Hall in Xishan County, where have they gone?"
Zhou Lidao: "Don't worry, they are not dead, they were just transferred out of Xishan County, and in this Xishan City, your jade pendant that transmits orders to the South Cave Hall is malfunctioning!"
I asked curiously: "Why?"
Zhou Li said: "If you look at the sky, you will know that the power of the stars has been cut off. What else can't be cut off? This is exactly the same as how the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance dealt with my uncle back then. They first sealed off the city and then reported it to the royal family.
It is said that the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance branch in Xishan County is treasonous. Before the royal family arrives, these Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance people will rush towards you like dead soldiers, and then kill you at all costs!"
"In the end, those people from the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance will all die to apologize."
"There will be no way to investigate this case, and then it will be sealed, and your death will be unknown. But you are much worse off than my uncle. He has been in power for at least a hundred years, and you have only been in power for a few months. You
He will become the prince with the shortest reign in the history of the human race!"
When Zhou Li said these words, he had absolutely no confidence in me. In his eyes, I might already be a dead person.
I smiled at Zhou Li and said, "What if I didn't die!"
Zhou Li said: "Do you really think that the people around you can help you escape back to Wuwangsin City?"
I said: "I didn't want to escape!"
Zhou Lidao: "That means you are crazy. You will definitely die if you stay here!"
At this time, the black hands on my mourning platform have already begun to make predictions about my stay in Xishan City, and the results will soon come out. Although it is extremely dangerous for me to stay here, there is no sign of death at all!
On the contrary, if we escape, my life will be in danger.
After getting the divination results, I said to Zhou Lida: "Then I will show you my madness. I will continue to ask the next question, who is the person who sealed the power of stars in Xishan City?"
Zhou Lidao: "I do know this person. His name is Qiuling. He comes from the Utopia. Prince Chen should be familiar with him, too!"
Qiuling came to the human race's Xishan City and joined forces with the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance?
Hearing what Zhou Li said, I opened my mouth in surprise and couldn't say a word for a long time!
The Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance is too courageous, and the prisoner really dares to come to the human race, isn't he afraid that the human race's power will deal with him?
But thinking about it again, the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance has tacitly approved of Qiu Ling's action. Who else in the human race is willing to wade into this muddy water?
I looked at Zhou Lida and said, "Doesn't His Majesty the Human Emperor know about such a big thing like the cooperation between the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance and Qiao Ling?"
Zhou Li said: "It's not that I don't know, but I pretend not to know. What a smart man my father is. He has been using your life to test the bottom line of Prince Heyun of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance. But my father's purpose has been achieved.
You successfully touched their bottom line, so they took action!"
"My father will not protect you, but he will use your sacrifice to adjust his next strategy..."
At this point, Zhou Li was stunned for a moment!
I asked Zhou Li why he didn't say anything anymore, and Zhou Li said: "Perhaps my father has no intention of adjusting his strategy at all. He really wants to use your death this time to completely break with the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance and Prince Yun. He
Let’s get real!”
Zhou Li's eyes lit up instantly.
I frowned and asked, "Why do you have such a guess!"
Zhou Li said: "Because I am his son, the one who understands his thoughts best among all his sons, and the one who was punished the most by him!"
Did the Emperor punish Zhou Li?
I've always thought that the Human Emperor was pretty good, but how did he become a big villain in Zhou Li's words?
Zhou Li continued: "My father cannot be described as bad. He should be described as ruthless. For his hegemony and imperial power, he will abandon anything, including his own life. My father is such a person."
people!"
After saying that, Zhou Li smiled again and said: "I may have drunk a little too much today, so I am just talking nonsense here with Prince Chen!"
I interrupted Zhou Lida: "Last question, if I survive this catastrophe, can you tell me everything that happened to you!" (To be continued)
