Su Mei looked at Bai Jin and said, "First, give me your Ice Silkworm Gu King."
Bai Jin did not hesitate and said: "If you want to fight for the position of saintess, ice silkworm Gu is indispensable. This book is for you."
Su Mei continued: "I want half of the profits from Tianranju."
Bai Jin frowned and said, "This money is used to prepare for trouble..."
Gongsun Ying tugged at her sleeves, stepped forward, and said, "Okay, I promise you this on behalf of senior sister."
Su Mei looked at them and said: "Third, while you are staying in the capital, do not cause trouble in the Chen Kingdom, let alone cause trouble for my husband-in-law."
Bai Jin nodded.
Su Mei added: "Fourth..."
Bai Jin frowned and said, "Is there a fourth one?"
Su Mei looked at her and asked, "Do you think it's too much?"
Bai Jin took a deep breath and said, "Not much, you continue..."
After a long time, when Su Mei had finished all her requests, Bai Jin looked at her and said: "These days, you come to Tianju every day. Your uncle Gongsun and I will teach you what we have learned throughout our lives. Only you can
Only when you learn them all can you have the confidence to compete for the Saint."
"I can't come every day." Su Mei shook her head and said, "No more than once every two days. I still have to accompany my husband."
Bai Jin took a deep breath and nodded after a long time: "Okay."
Su Mei left Tiantianju. Gongsun Ying looked in the direction of the door and asked uncertainly: "Why do I think she is happy to be a saint?"
"No matter what, as long as she agrees." Bai Jin looked at Gongsun Ying and said, "Now can you tell me where King Wu is?"
"It is not suitable for His Highness to show up now. When the time is right, you will naturally be able to see him." Gongsun Ying avoided the topic and asked: "As for you, in these years in the capital, you should have opened more than just one restaurant.
, what other arrangements are there?”
Bai Jin glanced at her and said, "When the time is right, you will naturally know."
…
The lineage of the King of Guizhou was completely in decline. Bai Jin wanted to restore the country and had no choice but the King of Wu, so she and Gongsun Ying came to the capital to train Su Mei to become a new generation saint of the Wan Gu Sect and control the Wan Gu Sect.
, indirectly helping them regain their country.
In order for her family to have a place to live in the future, Su Mei was determined to obtain the position of the saint of Wan Gu Sect.
This was her own intention. Even Tangning couldn't make her change her mind, so he could only choose to support it.
Tang Ning was a little worried about her safety. Although her strength was already very strong among the younger generation, she still couldn't compare with the older generation such as Gongsun Ying and Bai Jin. Tang Ning could not safely let her go to Guizhou alone.
land.
"Don't worry." Su Mei looked at him and comforted: "It's still a long time before the next competition for the saint. Before that, they will teach me what they have learned throughout their lives, and even if they can't become a saint, they won't be able to become a saint.
There will be danger."
The old beggar squatted beside him and asked casually: "Your Wan Gu sect doesn't have a saint yet?"
Su Mei looked at him and said: "My master said that since the death of the previous generation of saints and several elders, the sect has interrupted a period of inheritance, and there has never been a saint since then."
The old beggar shook his head and said: "I told you a long time ago that hiding in the mountains and playing with bugs has no future. Only when you go out for a walk will you know how high the sky is, but you just don't listen..."
Su Mei looked at him and said in surprise: "What did you say?"
The old beggar waved his hand, said no more, stood up and left.
Tang Ning always felt that the old beggar had something to do with the Ten Thousand Gu Sect. He said that he had traveled to many places when he was young and knew a little about Gu. It seemed that he had to find an opportunity to get some good things from him.
During the time Tang Ning left Beijing, the prevailing situation in Beijing changed greatly.
Before he left, there were fights every day in the court, and there were often quarrels in the court. King Duan and King Kang were at loggerheads, but during this time, one of them was quieter than the other, and their presence in the court was extremely low.
.
The reason why this situation occurs is because the general environment has changed, and who should win the position of the East Palace is no longer the focus of the officials.
The power of the grasslands and the Western Regions, and the threat they pose to the northwest of Chen State, are the most serious and acute problems that Chen State is currently facing.
No matter how stupid King Duan and King Kang are, they will not continue to scheming and showing off their cleverness in the face of big issues.
Speaking of the northwest, although Jiangnan has calmed down and the pressure in the northwest has dropped sharply, it is only temporary.
The alliance between Chen and Chu was only valid for a short period of two years. Within two years, the Wanyan Department rose against the odds and continued to grow with unstoppable momentum.
At the same time, Xiyu Xiaowan also barged into everyone's sight, making no secret of his tiger and wolf heart.
Chen Guo cannot wait until they start to wreak havoc in the northwest before making arrangements. Since they will have to fight sooner or later, it is better to seize the initiative first.
Regarding the grassland, Emperor Chen sent a letter of credence to the Chu State a few days ago, hoping to change from passive to active. The two countries would join forces to take the initiative to attack the Sushen tribe.
In the Western Regions, the imperial court has also made arrangements, mainly to unite the small countries in the Western Regions to contain Xiaowan's expansion trend, and then wait for the opportunity to nip the chaos in the Western Regions in the bud.
Now that Emperor Chen had money, he exempted the two northwest provinces from paying taxes, and vigorously recruited troops in the northwest. These measures all showed that he wanted to fight to the end against the grassland western regions.
This is also an opportunity for the children of generals in Beijing, especially those who have declined.
Their family has declined, and if they want to restore their family's glory, they can only accumulate enough military exploits.
Liu Jun, Mu Yu, and Huang Yulong had already greeted Tang Ning and wanted to go to Shazhou, the front line bordering the Western Region.
The west is much safer than the north. After all, the enemies on the grassland are more adept at fighting, and the conflict with Chen Guo is also deeper. As long as they endure the experience in the west, make some achievements, and continue the glory of the family for one generation, the problem does not matter.
Not big.
Tangning understood their thoughts and had already informed the Ministry of War that they would be transferred out soon.
However, when Xiao Jue, who had just been promoted, stood opposite him and told him with a very serious expression that he was going to kill the barbarians on the grassland, Tang Ning was still shocked.
Although Xiao Jue had told him more than once that a real man should fight on the battlefield and make achievements, but those achievements were all made with his own life.
He looked at Xiao Jue and said in shock: "You are crazy. A lieutenant general is not enough for you. Why are you going to the grassland?"
He was the only one left in the Xiao family. If something happened to him, how would he explain to Mr. Xiao and how to explain to Lu Ya?
"The Xiao family is a general. What is a general without military exploits?" Xiao Jue shook his head and said, "My father is old and I am the only man in the Xiao family. I must at least sit in your current position to ensure the continuation of the Xiao family.
…”
"Do you want to sit in my seat?" Tangning looked at him and said, "Just wait two more years, at most two years, and I will give this seat to you."
"What's the point of giving up the general?" Xiao Jue smiled self-deprecatingly and said: "I am also a man. I don't want to take advantage of you every time. I want to prove to them that there are still men in the Xiao family...
"
"You should give up." Tangning waved her hand and said, "Your father will not agree to this matter, Lu Ya will not agree to it, and I will not agree to it either."
Xiao Jue smiled and said: "I can go directly to ask His Majesty. If His Majesty does not agree, I will kneel at the gate of the palace until he agrees."
Tangning asked, "Are you sure?"
Xiao Jue nodded solemnly and said, "I'm sure."
Tangning asked, "Does Lu Ya know about this?"
Xiao Jue said: "I haven't had time to tell her yet."
…
Tang Ning waved to Lu Ya, and Lu Ya came over, looked at him, and asked doubtfully, "What's the matter?"
"He said he wanted to go to the grassland to make contributions." Tang Ning pointed at Xiao Jue, looked at Lu Ya, and said, "Persuade him---persuad him well."
As soon as he finished speaking, the air around him suddenly became a bit colder.
Tangning walked out of the courtyard and closed the door, ignoring the screams coming from inside.
