After the discussion, Huang Yuanhe insisted on leaving despite Princess Dongyang's enthusiastic plea to stay. After he left, someone appeared next to Princess Dongyang. The princess gave a sweet smile, kicked off her shoes, and grabbed the corner of the visitor's clothes with her pink toes.
, commanded: "Come up."
The man was very obedient and asked while moving: "Your Highness really hopes that the Chief Assistant will become our ally, even at the expense of his appearance."
"Keke, you little puppy, are you actually jealous?" Princess Dongyang felt relieved and in a good mood, and explained a few more words: "I don't believe a word of what Huang Lao Gou said. Wait for that person to enter.
Capital Master, our two rulers will immediately join forces with the old witch in the palace, because he knows that if I defeat the old witch, he will be the next to die."
"Then why did the princess meet him today?"
"It's very simple, just muddy the water. The old guy has always been cautious. What I said today must have made him suspicious, and he wanted to make perfect arrangements when he got back.
This is the time I want. By the time he comes to his senses, that person has already entered the palace."
The person in her body still doesn't understand, but is moving very hard. Princess Dongyang is a little tired of the stupidity of this kind of people, but they are very useful, so it doesn't matter.
No matter how much he explained, they still couldn't understand that as long as Prince Qian and Prince entered the capital and entered the imperial city, the situation would be different. He was an orthodox member of the royal family, and no matter who they were, they would try their best to keep him out of the capital.
You can use any means to deal with him outside, but when you enter the capital and the imperial city, you must use normal means. And it is very difficult to use normal means to deal with an orthodox royal, even if he is a deposed prince.
of.
This is the world of cultivators. The Hongwu Celestial Dynasty has not yet exhausted its energy. The blessings an orthodox prince can receive in the palace are unimaginable.
They don't know yet that Prince Qian and Prince have become the ruler of the country, otherwise they will fight to the death to prevent him from entering the imperial city and regaining the dynasty's luck bonus.
…
What Xiao Zhen was thinking about was exactly what Princess Dongyang thought of.
Prince Qianhe was humble and courteous back then, but after so many years of exile, Xiao Zhen has no way of knowing what kind of character he will become.
If he still has the "appearance of a wise king" as before, he would not mind supporting Prince Qianhe.
But from the collusion between the former prince and Princess Dongyang, it seemed to be inferred that the prospect was not optimistic. He sighed: "We still need to make some preparations."
He stood up from the cauldron, and the liquid fell down without touching his body. He put on his clothes, tidied up his appearance, and then opened a secret door in the inner room. There was a secret array inside, and he was sent directly to the cauldron.
Deep in the Star Building.
The Star-Zhaing Tower has always been an extremely mysterious existence in the outside world, and the old monsters here make everyone in Longyi Guard talk about it.
It's not that they really have great strength, but because these old guys are extremely persistent people and will never give up until they achieve their goals.
They were able to block Xiao Zhen's door for seven days in a row for an extremely expensive experimental material, denying him access.
In order to experiment with new magical powers, they would go directly to Longyi Guards to capture the captain and force them to practice and try.
They have delved into countless weird torture tools, and they have developed several secret but powerful war tools. They are the "treasures" in Xiao Zhen's mouth. No one in the entire Longyi Guard dares to offend them, because maybe when
, you just ask to go to the gate of Zhaixing Tower.
Xiao Zhen was familiar with the road here, turned into a deep path, came to a bamboo door, knocked on the door and said: "Mr. Xing, it's me."
There was no response from inside, so Xiao Zhen could only wait outside: "If you want to be busy, I'll wait outside."
After waiting for two hours, a coughing sound finally came from the yard. The bamboo door opened, and a strange smell of decay wafted out. An extremely weak old man walked out with a cane. Xiao Zhen was shocked.
A jump: "Mr. Xing, you have to take care of yourself!"
Xing Lao coughed: "I won't die in three or two years. You, a busy official, can wait outside my door for two hours. You must have something important to do, right?"
Xiao Zhen told the purpose of his visit, and Xing Lao frowned deeply. After a long time, he said: "It's not that there is no way, but... this matter is extremely serious, and I'm afraid it will be counterattacked by the law of heaven. No matter who is in charge of it, he will die if he succeeds.
Undoubtedly, even you and I can’t escape implication!”
Xiao Zhen hesitated slightly, but still nodded vigorously and said: "It's a very important matter, and we have to do it. Xiao doesn't care, he's just hurting Mr. Xing, and he really feels uneasy."
Mr. Xing waved his hand: "I believe you, old man. If you say it must be done, then there is a reason why it must be done. There are still a few Tian Mending Pills left, so I should be able to cope with it."
He turned around and walked inside: "Follow me, and I'll give you a recipe."
…
Zeng Qianhu came back from Mianzhou, but he didn't look relaxed. After he entered the Yamen, he reported to Song Zheng that Mianzhou Longyi Guard existed in name only. After he went there, there were many obstacles. Fortunately, Wu Chaoyi had not taken office yet, otherwise he might
I can't come back.
"Mianzhou Longyi Guard was originally named 'Wanshan Guard', but after Mianzhou became the sphere of influence of Princess Dongyang, it was crippled by Princess Dongyang's tricks. All the guards were her people, and their names were also changed by her.
It was replaced by 'Baihua Guard'." Zeng Qianhu was indignant: "Listen, Sir, is there anyone named Long Yiwei with this name? People who don't know may think it's a brothel!"
Song Zheng recited a few words of "Wu Chaoyi's" name, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind. He was very bold, but very promising.
He knocked on the table and told Shi Zhonghe: "Go and call Du Qianhu."
After Du Qianhu arrived, he dropped the strange formation to seal off the inside and outside. The matters discussed today must not be known to others. He asked Du Qianhu: "Where has Wu Chaoyi gone?"
Du Qianhu was well aware of the disturbances on the ground in Jiangnan: "We have entered the boundary of Jiangnan. According to the speed, we should be in Fuzhou."
Zeng Qianhu immediately opened an aura map on the side, with mountains, rivers, cities, markets and towns all on it. Du Qianhu stepped forward and circled a range: "It's around here."
"Wushui City." He raised his eyebrows: "It's not very suitable, but the next step is the range of Hupao Mountain, and it's appropriate to start there."
He thought about it again and told him his plan. Zeng Qianhu and Du Qianhu were shocked at first, but Zeng Qianhu reacted first, his eyes glowed red with excitement, and he punched hard and said: "Fuck him
Yes! If this happens, the benefits will be huge."
Song Zheng nodded: "If we succeed in Mianzhou, we can extend it to the whole of Lingnan step by step, and put all of Jiangnan and Lingnan under the control of our Long Yiwei!"
"My Lord is mighty!" Zeng Qianhu was extremely excited. The two subordinates cleverly avoided a sensitive topic, whether it was really in the hands of Long Yiwei or Lord Song.
Don’t ask what you shouldn’t ask, don’t think about what you shouldn’t think about, and don’t know what you shouldn’t know.
It’s also the “three no’s”.
Du Qianhu frowned and said: "But sir... there is a fatal problem with this plan. The imperial court has long been prepared to prevent this kind of thing from happening. Therefore, the seals issued by the imperial court are all related to the soul. If it is replaced, the soul must be different."
, if you cannot get the approval of the Great Seal, you will not be able to take office and exercise power."
Song Zheng chuckled: "I have my own clever plan."
…
Hupao Mountain is located in the southeast of Fuzhou, very close to Lingnan. Passing through Hupao Mountain, and walking another 800 miles, you will enter the boundary of Mianzhou in Lingnan.
There are many small extremities in this mountain. These extremities appear very randomly and come and go. Why do such small-scale extremities appear and disappear? There are many theories in the world of cultivation. The mainstream view is that
, they are the result of the instability of the void. Suddenly, the power of the Styx leaks through the void to this place, and an extremity will be created.
The wild beasts and insects within the Extinct Domain are affected by the power of the Styx and gradually turn into desolate beasts and bugs. The level of these desolate beasts and bugs is not high, but unique types often appear, so they are very valuable.
It is precisely for this reason that there are many wild beast hunters in Hupao Mountain, either alone or in small groups. There are many wild beast hunters without ethics. If there is no harvest for many days, and they happen to see a weak caravan,
, they cover their faces and they are bandits.
However, the team that Wu Chaoyi took office was very large, with flags flying and heavy repairs accompanying him. Those wild beast hunters who avoided such official teams when they saw them from a distance were what they were most afraid of. What if they were mistaken for bandits and were easily wiped out?
There is really nowhere to cry.
The convoy was long, and in the sixth car in the middle, Wu Chaoyi was sitting calmly, holding an ancient bamboo slip in his hand and studying it.
He has a fair face and a long beard, and has a dignified appearance. He has served as the envoy of Princess Dongyang for six years. Because he is "diligent and conscientious", his hard work will eventually pay off. After getting the position of Mianzhou Prefecture, he will finally take charge of the government. Wu Chaoyi cannot help but
He is full of ambition: When I go to Mianzhou, I will scrape three feet of the ground and three inches of the sky to bring back the youth I have spent in the past six years.
The human-faced beast is probably talking about people like him.
The ancient bamboo slip in his hand was a gift given when he left Beijing. It has a history of tens of thousands of years and is very valuable. It is said to be a fragment of a supreme Taoist scripture. He is also a monk, and of course he hopes that his cultivation level will be higher.
The better, drawing parallels is the best way to make further progress.
Outside the car, a monk under his command reported: "Sir, we have reached the depths of Hupao Mountain. We should be able to walk out in one day. The journey ahead is very flat, and we will be able to reach Mianzhou soon."
Wu Chaoyi nodded: "Very good."
"We will be completely safe once we leave the Jiangnan area. We must be careful these days to protect you."
In Wu Chaoyi's view, this was just a request for credit from his subordinates. He snorted coldly: "Song Zheng? Hum, I'm sorry he doesn't dare to demote himself!"
