Chapter five hundred and eighteenth capital incident
The Mu family and the Zhengyi faction were dumbfounded, and they even waited until the leader of the Heaven Confrontation Alliance had left for a long time before they dared to take any action.
The strength of the leader of the Fighting Heaven Alliance was really terrifying. Mu Tianxing and Zhao Dansheng were almost crushed in the hands of the other party, without the slightest ability to fight back.
Even if he had murderous intentions, none of the people present would be able to leave alive.
After a long while, Zhao Dansheng said with a bitter look on his face: "Who is this person?"
Mu Tianxing also looked puzzled: "I don't know, when did such a strong man appear in the world?
But he seems to have met us before, at least he recognized us decades ago, but why can't I remember that I know such a strong person?
Didn’t he say that when he was in the capital decades ago, he said that your studies were too complex? Do you still remember who he is?"
Zhao Dansheng said with some embarrassment: "It's been too long and I can't remember some of it."
In fact, at that time, he had just taken over the position of head of the Zhengyi Sect, and could be said to be the youngest head in the history of the Zhengyi Sect. He went to the capital to refine elixirs for Li Yuangong, and took over the position of national master. At that time, it could be said that Zhao Dansheng
The highlight moment of this life, the most glorious and proud time.
At this time, someone told him that his cultivation was too complex and was not conducive to subsequent development? How could he remember such words?
Mu Tianxing sighed: "In such troubled times, such a strong man unexpectedly appeared quietly in the world. It's simply terrifying."
The Mu family and the Zhengyi sect dominate Bashu, and they are almost like earth emperors here.
So their character style is definitely tough and domineering.
But at this time, no matter how tough and domineering he was, he was crushed by that man's punch. Mu Tianxing was even ready. After returning to the Mu family, he would restrain the disciples of the Mu family and make them keep a low profile recently.
Some.
Zhao Dansheng also sighed: "It is indeed a troubled time. I also want to go to the capital."
Mu Tianxing was stunned: "Are you going to check that person's identity? That person's strength is so terrifying, and we don't have much to lose. It's not a good idea to become enemies with him at this time."
Zhao Dansheng shook his head and said: "I'm not crazy, how could I take the initiative to provoke such a strong person?
It's a matter between my Taoist sect and Buddhism.
Previously, Prince Daqian rebelled, and the national preceptor who was implicated in our Taoist lineage was also beheaded.
There are currently vacancies among the five great national masters. Even if this position cannot fall into the hands of our Taoist sect, it cannot fall into the hands of the Buddhist sect.
The Taiyi Sect is already dealing with those matters, and I, the Zhengyi Sect, will do my best this time."
Hearing that it was about the dispute between Taoism and Buddhism, Mu Tianxing couldn't help but shake his head and said: "You Taoism and Buddhism factions are troublesome. You are scheming openly and secretly. Why don't you just have a quick fight?"
It was hard for the Mu family to say anything about this kind of thing, so Mu Tianxing just waved his hand and led the people away.
On the other side, after leaving the Bashu dense forest, Ye Hongxiu bowed her hands to the leader of the Zhengtian Alliance and said: "Thank you, senior, for the rescue. I won't bother senior anymore, little girl."
Seeing the leader of the Fighting Sky Alliance nodding, Ye Hongxiu left directly and neatly.
She could vaguely tell that Gu Cheng seemed to have some relationship with this strong man, but she didn't dare to inquire more about this kind of thing.
After Ye Hongxiu left, the leader of the Zhengtian Alliance said calmly: "Those guys from Luo Jiao are very annoying, but this girl is quite discerning."
Upon hearing this, Zuo Yunzhi snorted coldly in the scabbard: "If I were still here, how dare this guy speak so wildly? Even though his fist power is indeed amazing, it was rare five hundred years ago, but it is not his nature.
Those opponents with magical powers."
"You should just take a rest. Now that you appear in front of others, they will knock your soul out with one punch."
After complaining about Zuo Yun, Gu Cheng raised his hands to the leader of the Fighting Sky Alliance and said, "Gu Cheng has met the leader."
The leader of the Zhengtian Alliance raised his hand and held Gu Cheng in a strong position. He shook his head and said, "We are all brothers, so we don't need to be so polite."
Gu Cheng had already become the ninth member of the core of the Heaven Confrontation Alliance. He was not a subordinate, but a true brother.
Gu Cheng asked curiously: "Leader, how did you know that we were blocked there by the Zhengyi faction and the Mu family?"
The leader of the Fighting Heaven Alliance said calmly: "The two factions of Bashu and Bashu are not weak in strength, but they are also people who sit in a well and watch the sky. They have been in Bashu all year round. I really think that I am the king of heaven.
The legend of the Endless Wonderland has been circulating in Bashu for so long, how could they not be moved by it?
What did you get in the Endless Fairyland this time? The so-called immortality must be fictitious, right?"
Powerful people like the leader of the Zhengtian Alliance actually have their own views on immortality.
But generally speaking, the stronger the person, the less they believe in immortality.
Gu Cheng nodded and told the leader of the Conflicting Heaven Alliance about the matters in the Everlasting Immortal.
After listening to this, the leader of the Zhengtian Alliance also shook his head and sighed: "It's a pity that such a powerful existence is so simple. Perhaps it is because his thoughts are extremely simple that he can possess such powerful power."
After saying that, the leader of the Fighting Heaven Alliance looked at Gu Cheng and said: "After the matter in Bashu is over, you should not delay any longer and go back to the capital immediately. At the same time, we have to rush to the capital by another way."
Gu Cheng asked in surprise: "Is there something wrong in the capital?"
It has been less than a year since Gu Cheng arrived in the southwest from the capital, and the turmoil over the elixir has just passed, so logically there shouldn't be any problems.
The leader of the Zhengtian Alliance said solemnly: "It was the fourth prince who sent us an urgent letter asking us to go back. Li Yuangong is planning to establish a new crown prince, and he will also be the prince of the country, with the kind of edict that will pass the throne."
Gu Cheng was stunned: "Why so fast?"
It’s not surprising that Li Yuangong established a new crown prince after the prince died, but the question is, is this too soon?
And even if a prince is to be established now, an imperial edict on the throne is also issued at the same time. What does this mean? It means that Li Yuangong has no chance to regret it. This is almost his last prince.
The voice of the leader of the Zhengtian Alliance changed slightly at this time, and he said calmly: "Because Li Yuangong has no time.
His lifespan was already short before, and the failure to refine the elixir of immortality was a huge blow to him.
In less than a year, his condition has deteriorated, so even if he does not establish a crown prince, other important ministers will force him to establish a crown prince.
Moreover, the capital is not stable now. Both Taoism and Buddhism have gathered in the capital, and the fourth prince has panicked. This is also the last time that we, Zhengtian Alliance, have supported Li Xiaowu for so many years. If it fails, all the efforts we have made before will be in vain.
All in vain.
The capital city is changing every day, and the Four Emperors will explain the specific matters to us after we enter the capital."
Gu Cheng nodded, and after parting, he immediately ordered his troops to rush back to the capital as quickly as possible.
As for the southwest, he just made some arrangements.
Lin Tengyun died, and the leftist forces in the southwest also lost their masters, but Gu Cheng left some people here.
Xu Youming, the governor of western Hunan, was considered to be one of Gu Cheng's men because he participated in the battle to annihilate the Wu family. With this battle as the foundation, he was almost tied to Gu Cheng's chariot.
Miao Jiang lost its master, and the three lines of Long Mo and Jin were severely weakened after the death of Grandma Long. Therefore, the Miao Jiang lineage is now dominated by the Lan family, headed by Lan Guitian.
Although the Lan clan is not strong, it has a large number of people. In addition, Lan Guitian is old enough and has enough prestige, so now Miaojiang has vaguely formed an alliance, and Lan Guitian is the leader.
After the death of Taoist Huangmei, the body-expelling lineage became a mass of loose sand, but everyone knew that Liu Yingying was from Gu Cheng, so she also collected a lot of fleeing cultivators from the Liu family and scattered members of the body-expelling lineage.
Xiu rebuilt the Liu family's Sanyi Hall, and with the help of the Lan family and Xu Youming, he also gained considerable prestige in the corpse exorcism lineage.
As for the military, General Qin Ming will also provide them with some conveniences.
In this way, the entire southwest power, whether it is the military, Jing Yesi, or Zuo Dao Jianghu, they are all connected by Gu Cheng. It can be said that they are all on Gu Cheng's line.
With these people in the southwest, now after Lin Tengyun's death, Gu Cheng is the invisible 'King of the Southwest'.
Gu Cheng hurried all the way back to the capital. The first thing Gu Cheng did was to enter the palace to report the news to Li Yuangong.
The news of his entry into the capital must have been known to Jingyesi immediately. If he dared to be any slower, Li Yuangong in this state would go crazy.
In fact, this was indeed the case. After receiving the news from Gu Cheng, Li Yuangong immediately announced that he had been summoned.
However, when passing by the imperial city, Gu Cheng also discovered that there were more rivers and lakes in the capital.
Moreover, these Jianghu people only have two attributes, one is a monk, and the other is a Taoist priest. The two sides are full of gunpowder. Everyone is so powerful that they even scare some local Jianghu people in the capital and dare not take the lead.
Their intimidation power is comparable to that of Yasushi Yasushi.
There were many officials from the Ministry of Etiquette in the imperial city, and Gu Cheng also saw Mr. Xiao, an official from the Ministry of Etiquette who Ye Hongxiu had pretended to be his daughter.
Gu Cheng asked the eunuch leading the way: "May I ask my father-in-law, what are these people gathering here for?"
The eunuch who led the way also knew that Gu Cheng was Li Yuangong's recently promoted minister. He replied politely: "Your Majesty wants to establish a new crown prince. This time he will be the crown prince, so naturally it has to be more formal. They are choosing a prince."
What auspicious day."
Gu Cheng asked calmly: "Oh? Have you chosen a time then?"
The eunuch shook his head and said: "It seems that it is not confirmed yet, but it will be soon. Your Majesty seems to be very anxious this time. It should be held within this month."
Gu Cheng nodded secretly. No wonder the fourth prince was so anxious. The outcome was about to come out in such a short period of time. In fact, the fourth prince was at a disadvantage.
Although he has the help of the Zhengtian Alliance behind him, the Zhengtian Alliance cannot show his face openly, so the help that can be given to him is hidden. On the surface, he is still not as good as the second prince.
At this time, the palace had arrived. When Gu Cheng saw Li Yuangong, he was stunned. In less than a year, how could Li Yuangong have aged like this?
