"Jiange has been included in the Tiece Army, and you have been awarded the title of General Shenwei Zhenxi to fight for the dynasty. If you do not have this senior brother, it means surrender, and the emperor will slowly forget his previous practice."
Chen Jinru looked at Lin Yi and said slowly: "But it's different now. With you as a senior brother, and because you as a senior brother prevented the Demon Sect member from meeting with him, the emperor will naturally think of the past. Many things. He will think of what kind of threat He Xiuxian posed to him back then. If there was no Shen Yue back then, he would not have been able to successfully sit on the throne. But there was Shen Yue back then, but now there is no Shen Yue by his side. Made an appointment."
There was silence around the extinguished bonfire, and everyone's brows were deeply furrowed.
"The bet back then seemed fair, but Shen Yue felt that his time was approaching and went to kill He Xiuxian and his disciple. This was a fair bet that he had personally broken. But if He Xiuxian had already killed himself from the beginning, The fact that a real true disciple was substituted means that he was already on guard and had other ideas in mind, and the emperor would naturally think that this bet was unfair from the beginning."
Chen Jinru sneered slightly, "It's impossible for the emperor not to guess the purpose of the Demon Sect sending people to meet with him. When he accepted the meeting with that Demon Sect member, he was probably already thinking about accepting the Demon Sect and as soon as possible. To end the war between the Southern Dynasties and the Northern Wei Dynasty, the most tempting thing for most generals of the Southern Dynasties was to reduce the casualties of their own sergeants, and to allow many of their subordinates who had fought for many years to disarm and return home, live and work in peace and contentment, and have no more wars. But for the emperor, He will usher in an unprecedented unification of the northern and southern dynasties in hundreds of years. Even though he does not seem to be the kind of emperor who loves great achievements, this temptation is greater than that of ordinary generals."
Lin Yi nodded, and then asked: "In fact, the real protagonists of the bet back then were the two disciples. So who are Shen Yue's disciples?"
"Xu Baiyu."
Chen Jinru had a strange look on his face, "Even I only know his name. I only know that he is also a practitioner like the Demon Sect, who is unmatched in many aspects."
Lin Yi raised his head. For some reason, his mood was not too heavy, but filled with an inexplicable joy.
During those years in Jiankang City, he met many people who were submissive or good-looking, but now that he thought about it, those people had no character, because the essence of those people was exactly the same, they were just flattering their superiors and trying to get them. The favor of the powerful, and then trying to make themselves into a powerful person, a higher-ranking powerful person.
Perhaps no one is qualified to comment on the right or wrong of He Xiuxian's persistence at that time. This kind of change of dynasties and the choices of people who can influence the overall situation will be left to future generations to judge what is right and wrong many years later.
But no matter what, no matter what kind of cultivation, these people in the sword pavilion, or this unknown senior brother who blocked the meeting between the Demon Sect members and the emperor, they are all people with great character.
Lin Yi feels that he is also a very personable person.
Thinking that he still has such a senior brother, he is more happy than worried.
"Everything has two sides. I naturally understand that now that I have just been granted the title, and I am going to guard the party, I am afraid that the emperor cannot go back on his words now, but if he thinks that the strength of my Tiecheng Army is getting stronger, he will probably be deeply concerned. Targeted. But on the other hand, if I am strong enough, and there is such a strong enough senior brother who can see the beginning and end of the dragon, he may have to think more about our ideas."
Lin Yi looked at Chen Jinru seriously and said: "Take one step at a time. What I must do tonight is to wait here for the news of Weng's death."
Chen Jinru smiled faintly and made no comment.
He actually also admired Lin Yi's attitude.
Thinking too much may not be a good thing.
When Xiao Yan was the governor of Yongzhou and led the army in person, he didn't seem to think much and was very decisive in killing. However, after he became emperor, he had too many aspects to consider, but he became more and more gentle, but seemed to be incompatible with Xiao Hong.
Instead, it becomes more and more similar.
And it has only been six years since he took the throne.
The sound of horse hooves echoed in the quiet streets and then disappeared.
The Huang family in Ningzhou not only has a deep courtyard, but even the eaves are higher than those of other prominent families in the surrounding area.
A beautiful woman with fair complexion was sitting in the room waiting.
Wearing a peacock green luxurious dress, she listened to the sound of carriages and horses stopping in the alley, a hint of reserve appeared at the corner of her mouth, and her slender neck was slightly raised.
She is like a proud peacock.
She is the Weng family that Lin Yi mentioned.
Suddenly she frowned slightly.
There was the sound of messy footsteps.
She could tell that it wasn't just Huang Wannian's footsteps.
The door was pushed open.
The extremely pale Huang Wannian appeared in her sight.
"What happened?"
She looked at Huang Wannian in surprise and asked.
Huang Wannian didn't answer her question. He didn't even dare to raise his head. He just said: "My wife is sick, so I asked her to drink the medicine soup."
The face of this woman who looked like a proud peacock suddenly stiffened.
She looked at the practitioner who walked out behind Huang Wannian, her hands and feet gradually became cold, "Don't come over!" She suddenly shouted sharply, looking at Huang Wannian, "Why?"
"Because of Lin Yuxuan."
Huang Wannian took a step back, his body trembled slightly, and said: "Because Lin Yi is here, if you don't die, many people in the Huang family will die."
"Lin Yuxuan?"
The woman was stunned. She pondered for a moment before finally remembering the name, and said angrily: "That bitch? Are you crazy, or is Lin Yi crazy? For a woman like that, you actually want me to die?"
Huang Wannian could not answer.
He didn't know how to answer. He actually felt that Lin Yi was really crazy.
"Huang Wannian! You are just such a cheap servant, and you really dare to obey his wishes and kill me?"
Seeing that the practitioner holding the medicine bowl was still approaching, the woman screamed: "Aren't you afraid that my father will crush you to ashes when he finds out?"
Hearing her voice, Huang Wannian was so horrified that he subconsciously took a step back. He was scared in his heart, so he subconsciously whispered: "It's only Lin Yi's fault that he became the General of Zhenxi."
"you!"
The woman wanted to scream, but the practitioner had already arrived in front of her and pinched her neck with one hand to silence her. At the same time, the medicinal soup in the medicine bowl was
He poured it all into the woman's mouth.
His true energy stimulated her, and the woman's eyes were full of fear, but she couldn't resist at all, but there was a gurgling sound in her throat and belly.
In just a few breaths, the divine light in this woman's eyes slowly dissipated.
The moment the practitioner let go, her body fell limply to the ground and there was no more sound.
In the darkness, a Tiece Army sergeant walked quickly back from the periphery of the camp, arrived in front of Lin Yi's tent, bowed and saluted, and then whispered: "Weng is dead."
Lin Yi slowly opened his eyes and stood up.
"Let's go."
He said to Mu En and others who were already prepared.
