In the Chunyang Dao Gate of the Eastern Qi Dynasty, I came to Xiang Chong secretly in disguise and felt a little uneasy.
Xiang Long's plan is too big, and his plan is even more crazy. Once it fails, Beiyan will be in a mess!
However, if Xiang Long's plan is followed, if it succeeds, Beiyan's own strength will skyrocket, creating a strong but fragile balance at the same time.
After hearing Xiang Long's plan, Xiang Chong's first reaction was that Xiang Long was crazy, but in the end Xiang Chong agreed. As for why he agreed, maybe it was just because he hated Xiang Long in his heart for risking his life for the throne.
Brotherly love, but he had to admit that in the past few decades, Beiyan had been able to reach its current scale only because of Xiang Long's governance and planning.
He is not a good brother or a good father, but he is a qualified emperor.
Xiang Chong is just a martial artist, but decades ago he did not have the strength of the True Fire God Refining Realm. Even if he had, a True Fire God Refining Realm would not be able to save Bei Yan.
So now, even though he thinks Xiang Long's plan is crazy, he still nods his head and agrees, and will handle these things himself.
Because only he can gain Xiang Long's absolute trust, and only his strength and position can guarantee the completion of these tasks.
Chunyang Daomen was his second stop, and the first stop was Daguangming Temple.
The reason why Xiang Chong went to Daguangming Temple was very simple. According to what Xiang Long said, he invited Daguangming Temple to come and establish a branch temple in Yanjing City. On the pretext that there were many bandits and villains in Beiyan, he invited the eminent monks of Daguangming Temple to come forward to suppress these people.
Xiang Long was extremely afraid of Daguangming Temple, but at this time he took the initiative to introduce Daguangming Temple. In fact, it was because he was even more afraid of Chu Xiu!
Xiang Long knew all along that he wanted Chu Xiu to deal with the Great Guangming Temple, but Chu Xiu was doing it against the will and in the dark, and he had no choice.
Since Chu Xiu's side couldn't work, well, he would bring in Daguangming Temple, drive away tigers and devour wolves, and disperse the power of Zhenwu Hall. With Chu Xiu's character, he didn't believe Chu Xiu could endure it!
As for Daguangming Temple, they are not idiots. They naturally know Xiang Long's thoughts, but they still agreed. There is only one reason. After all, Yanjing City is the core of the entire Beiyan. Daguangming Temple is extremely strict in recruiting disciples, but it is true.
Because of this, they need a large number of disciples to screen.
Now Xiang Long opened the core of Beiyan to Daguangming Temple, which Daguangming Temple could not refuse.
Although Xiang Long had already guessed that Xu Yun and other senior officials of Daguangming Temple must require their disciples to focus on preaching and not to conflict with Chu Xiu, Xiang Long believed that a conflict would happen sooner or later.
The reason is very simple. It is simply impossible for one Buddha and one demon to live peacefully under the same roof.
Xiang Chong really wants to say that Xiang Long is playing with fire. This kind of behavior may repel the tiger through the front door and let in the wolf through the back door. However, Xiang Long’s next plan is even bolder. This is no longer playing with fire, it is directly attacking the enemy.
Put yourself on the fire.
The reason why he came to Chunyang Dao Sect is also very simple, that is, he also wants to introduce Chunyang Dao Sect into Yanjing City.
Taoism and Buddhism are not at odds with each other. Under mutual checks and balances, Daguangming Temple, which is the local leader of Beiyan, will undoubtedly have another enemy and an additional layer of risk of conflict.
Moreover, Xiang Long has already calculated everything, and the chance of Chunyang Daomen agreeing is over 90%.
The reason is very simple, Chunyang Dao Sect is not having an easy time in Dong Qi.
There are two sects in the Eastern Qi Dynasty. The Chunyang sect is not popular because of its own style of conduct, and cannot compare with the peaceful Zhenwu sect.
The most important thing is that Zhenwu Sect is now the state religion of Dong Qi because of its aura of Ning Xuanji.
With the blessing of the power of a country, even if the current strength of the Zhenwu Sect is not too strong, and although Lu Changliu is a good person, he is just a good old man, but at least the Zhenwu Sect is not worried about the decline of the next generation.
On the other hand, Chunyang Dao Sect is in crisis and urgently needs to open a new breakthrough.
So after Xiang Chong came to Chunyang Daomen in person and told all this to Chunyang Daomen, Ling Yunzi, who was in retreat, personally agreed and asked Xiyunzi to take the senior warriors of Chunyang Daomen to Beiyan to establish Chunyang.
Daomen is at the helm of Beiyan.
After coming out of Chunyang Taoist Gate, Xiang Chong let out a long breath.
He had to admit that Xiang Long, who had been emperor for decades, was at least much better at thinking about people than he, a martial artist who had been practicing martial arts for decades.
The three channels of Taoism, Buddhism and Demon converge into one, which can be regarded as balancing the internal problems.
As for external issues, Xiang Chong still has to go to the East China Sea to meet the people of Jiangshan Pavilion.
Jiangshan Pavilion is one of the Renhe Six Gangs. In fact, the other party rarely operates in the Central Plains, and its behavior has not much connection with the gang. To be more precise, the other party is an organization that restores the country, called the Caomang Gang.
, but in fact they are a down-and-out royal family.
In the past, there were many small countries in the Central Plains, and it can be said that countless countries were destroyed.
Jiangshan Pavilion was formed by the royal family of a small country in the past. Because it carries the rich heritage and savings of a country, although it is a small country, it has the deepest heritage among the six major gangs.
Jiangshan Pavilion has been very smart in these years, or perhaps they have accidentally avoided the disputes in the Central Plains. Instead, they have developed their strength at the junction of the East China Sea and the coast, and conducted trade between the Central Plains and overseas lands. The development is not bad.
Xiang Long didn't know where he got the news. Jiangshan Pavilion had even controlled several overseas islands, and its strength was definitely not weak.
What Xiang Chong has to do is to go to Jiangshan Pavilion and persuade Jiangshan Pavilion to move all its forces to the Central Plains. Xiang Long can give Jiangshan Pavilion a promise to restore the country!
The word "restoration of the country" can be said to be the obsession of all generations of Jiangshan Pavilion. However, as the strength of Jiangshan Pavilion grows stronger, they become more and more desperate for the matter of restoration of the country.
Because now is no longer the chaotic world a hundred years ago. There are many small countries in the world. Even the weakest among the three kingdoms in the world, Xi Chu, is not something they can shake.
Xiang Long said that he wanted to help Jiangshan Pavilion restore the country. This was not to cause trouble for himself, but to find himself an ally to resist Dong Qi.
What Xiang Long wants to give Jiangshan Pavilion is not a person or a thing, but a piece of land, an area where Jiangshan Pavilion can restore the country. That place is Wei County.
Although Bei Yan has ruled Wei County for decades, in fact, Bei Yan has never truly controlled Wei County.
The people of Weijun have never recognized Beiyan from top to bottom, so for Beiyan, the reputation of this land is greater than its actual significance, and it is even a trouble.
If Xiang Long had time, he could slowly digest Wei County, but unfortunately, his time is running out, so it is worth using such a troublesome area to gain the support of Jiangshan Pavilion.
Moreover, Wei Commandery itself is at the junction of Northern Yan and Eastern Qi. If Eastern Qi attacks, Wei Commandery occupied by Jiangshan Pavilion will be an excellent buffer zone.
Compared with persuading Daguangming Temple and Chunyang Daomen, persuading Jiangshan Pavilion is undoubtedly much easier. As long as Xiang Chong states the conditions, Jiangshan Pavilion has no reason to refuse.
After Xiang Chong walked out of Jiangshan Pavilion, he suddenly sighed tiredly.
In the past, he hated Xiang Long deeply, thinking that he was a ruthless and cold-blooded person who killed his brother who was a compatriot of his mother for the sake of the throne.
But now he suddenly understood Xiang Long a little bit. Over the years, the things he had endured were heavier than he wanted.
Compared with Xiang Long, he doesn't have to think about so many calculations. He only needs to use a large amount of cultivation resources in the royal worship hall to steadily improve his cultivation level. Although it is boring, it is extremely relaxing.
While Xiang Chong was planning these things from Beiyan to the East China Sea, Chu Xiu was still retreating in Zhenwu Hall.
This is not because Chu Xiu is not sensitive to information, but because Xiang Long is too cautious.
As he said himself, he doesn't believe anyone now except Xiang Chong, his brother who hates him deeply.
All of this was handled by Xiang Chong, and not even a little bit of news leaked out.
At this moment, Mei Qinglian knocked on the door of Chu Xiu's retreat.
"Something has been done, and trouble may come again."
Chu Xiu stood up, stretched his muscles, and then said: "What kind of trouble is it? Is it from the Yinmo lineage or Beiyan's side?"
Now that Zhenwu Tang's strength is here, Mei Qinglian will not bother him with ordinary trivial matters. Now it seems that this matter should not be trivial.
Mei Qinglian said: "This is Beiyan's matter. Xiang Longzhao, please go to court."
Chu Xiu was startled when he heard this: "Let me go to court? What does he want to do?"
Since Chu Xiu joined the Beiyan court for such a long time, he has not even been in court once.
The Northern Yan court was in charge of the court, while the Zhenwu Hall was in charge of the Jianghu. There was no relationship between the two, so what was the use of going to court?
Mei Qinglian shrugged and said, "Who knows, that His Majesty may not be able to hold on for long. Who knows what he will do before he dies?
It's better to be cautious and bring Mr. Shang with you when you go to court. Anyway, Xiang Long didn't say how many people he can bring to court."
Chu Xiu nodded. In fact, he wasn't too worried. His strength came first, and he wasn't afraid of Xiang Long playing any tricks that would kill him or her.
Of course, in the eyes of many people, the Northern Yan court represented by Xiang Long was the net, and Chu Xiu was just the fish.
But even if it is a fish, Chu Xiu is also a man-eating shark, and cannot be caught by ordinary nets.
Of course, out of caution, Chu Xiu went to Shang Tianliang and asked him to go to court with him.
After coming to Beiyan, Shang Tianliang's life was very nourishing.
For him, as long as he leaves the hellish place of Ludu, any place is paradise.
Chu Xiu found a place to help them rebuild the mall, so during this period of time, Shang Tianliang has been playing the role of the city lord, leading the people in the mall to carefully rebuild their homes. In his spare time, he practiced by himself and continued to master the realm of heaven and earth.
The power it deserves.
When Chu Xiu came to see him, Shang Tianliang was still a little unhappy because Chu Xiu had delayed him from planting vegetables.
However, there were still some people in the mall eating sand in Green City. Even if he was unwilling, he still had to go to the palace with Chu Xiu.
