Chapter 168 The true origin of the witch god and the relationship between Ying Banzi
【Let me go, Painted Skin Fairy】 【】
…
According to common sense, after the debate, Jiang Yu'er should go see the Master and return the Emperor Wu Sword.
But Jiang Yuer did not do this.
He took the Emperor Wu Sword and walked out of Jixia, but the Master who was sitting on the top of the mountain of books did not stop him, as if he had forgotten to borrow the sword.
So, Jiang Yuer handed the Emperor Wu Sword to Jiang Chaoge in a deserted place.
And he himself went to the Jiaofang Division.
…
At night.
Jiaofang Si Zhong.
Jiang Yuer met Emperor Pingle and Ying Luoyu.
This seems to have become a 'normal'. When Emperor Pingle and Jiang Yu'er met, they would always have Luo Yu with them.
From this point of view, Emperor Pingle still had great trust in Luo Yu.
After Luo Yu saw Jiang Yu'er, he immediately praised Jiang Yu'er's performance in defense today.
After she finished her praise, she said: "Puxian will definitely be prepared tomorrow. Do you have any countermeasures?"
Jiang Yuer smiled bitterly: "What can be done to deal with this? It will definitely be Baozhi and Puxian who will play tomorrow. I can't possibly fight Baozhi and Puxian again, right?"
"That's... that's true." Luo Yu nodded. No matter how powerful Jiang Yu'er was, he couldn't be the opponent of Baozhi and Samantabhadra now.
But this way, Luo Yu couldn't understand: "Then today Samantabhadra asked you if you would come again tomorrow, why did you say you would definitely be there?"
"Oh, this is just Samantabhadra's deception." Jiang Yu'er smiled and replied: "Let the representatives of various schools of thought mistakenly think that Buddhism will focus all their attention on me, but in fact they ignore it.
The point of this argument."
"What is the point of the defense?"
"The Southern Territory Kingdom and the Western Territory Demon Clan jointly invaded the Qin Dynasty, and Buddhism wants to use this to settle in the Central Plains!"
"But on this point... haven't the emperor's brother and his mother already reached a consensus?" Luo Yu still didn't quite understand.
"Your Majesty and the Queen Mother have only agreed to the entry of Buddhism, but the specific conditions of both parties still need to be fought for."
"you mean?"
"To put it simply, it is the relationship between 'primary' and 'secondary'."
"What's the priority?" Luo Yu blinked: "Does this still need to be discussed? If Buddhism wants to settle in the Central Plains, it is natural that I will be the main one?"
"What if Da Qin asks the Buddhist sect to settle in?"
"How is this possible?" Luo Yu immediately shook his head: "How can I, Da Qin, ask Buddhism to settle in?"
Jiang Yuer didn't want to explain anymore, but looked at Emperor Pingle: "What do you think, Your Majesty?"
"Buddhism has thrown out bait, but the sincerity is not enough. I think... they may be waiting for the battle report from the border." Emperor Pingle thought for a while and replied.
Luo Yu understood when he heard this: "So this is what it means. Buddhism wants to wait until our Great Qin is defeated, and then use this to put forward conditions to our Great Qin?"
"That's pretty much it." Jiang Yu'er nodded.
"Hmph, Buddhism is still too naive. How can we, the warriors of Great Qin, be defeated by a small country in the south when we are fighting all over the world?" Luo Yu snorted coldly.
Obviously very confident.
However, there was a hint of worry on Emperor Pingle's face: "Although our great Qin warriors are strong, the food and grass they brought with them during this expedition is somewhat insufficient, and winter is about to begin. If this war drags on,
By winter…”

Emperor Pingle did not say the next words.
However, Jiang Yu'er knew very well that once the war dragged on into winter and heavy snow closed the mountains... lack of food and grass, and insufficient winter clothes, these problems would become apparent.
Jiang Yu'er asked: "Wu Pingjun Meng Liang,
When we set out for the expedition, we should have explained the tactical layout of this battle to the Queen Mother, right?"
"Yes." Emperor Pingle nodded: "What Wu Pingjun means is that the Southern Territory Kingdom has now defeated three cities in a row. It is the time when the army is strong. He wants to be defeated first and show weakness, and then borrow the troops from Xijing to defeat him.
Let’s do it together!”
"The soldiers of Xijing?" Luo Yu obviously didn't know about this plan, and he no longer expressed confusion when he heard this: "But aren't the soldiers of Xijing supposed to defend the monsters in the Western Regions?"
"Yes, Lord Wu Ping means that as long as we can find the right time to wipe out the main force of the Southern Territory Kingdom in one fell swoop, the Western Territory Monster Clan will retreat on its own."
After Emperor Pingle finished speaking, he added: "This is the only way to achieve a quick victory. Otherwise, if the two sides start a war... the war will inevitably last for a long time, which is not good for our Great Qin!"
Jiang Yuer understood.
In order to achieve a quick victory, Da Qin could only resort to dangerous tactics.
To put it bluntly, it means destroying one party with all your strength first... Although it is a bit risky, there is no way around it.
Of course, this kind of tactical layout requires a prerequisite, that is, the commander must be experienced and find the most suitable fighter in the battle.
Wu Pingjun Mengliang obviously fits this point.
Therefore, after Jiang Yuer heard this, he didn't have any objections.
I hope nothing goes wrong... right?
Now that foreign enemies are present, the stability of the court has become even more important.
The real reason why Emperor Pingle invited Jiang Yuer to Jiaofangsi was, of course, not just to discuss the war situation on the frontier, but also to take this opportunity to inquire about the internal affairs of the imperial court.
So, he spoke again: "Now that the Empress Mother is re-employing Jiang Erlang and letting him supervise the defense of the capital, what does Brother Jiang think about this matter?"
"Jiang Erlang is a talented person. With him guarding the capital, there shouldn't be any problems." Jiang Yuer immediately affirmed.
"Well, since you said so...then I feel relieved. However, although the safety of the capital has been guaranteed, some changes are still needed in the court. After all, the enemy is now at hand!"
Luo Yu immediately answered: "What the emperor means is that Jiang Erlang now holds an important position and controls the army in the capital, so for the sake of balance, he wants you to join the staff."
"Join the Ministry of Civil Affairs?" Jiang Yu'er understood what Emperor Pingle meant.
The Queen Mother took control of the troops garrisoned in the capital.
Emperor Pingle wanted him to formally come into contact with the government in order to gain balance.
"I have sent a secret message to the Prime Minister. Brother Jiang can discuss it with the Prime Minister in these two days. Based on Brother Jiang's performance in Jixia today, I think the Queen Mother will have no reason to stop it."
"Just because there is no reason to stop it doesn't mean the Queen Mother won't stop it," Jiang Yu'er replied.
"Then let's fight!" Emperor Pingle seemed to have made up his mind.
"Actually, I don't think it makes much sense to fight for the civil service now."
"Why?"
"The official department has always been controlled by the Prime Minister, so there will be no problem for the time being." Jiang Yu'er expressed his own thoughts: "If we fight for the official department now, even if we win, it will be of little use, and it will be easy for your majesty to fight with you.
The stalemate in the relationship between the queen mothers will be detrimental to the stability of the court, so I do not recommend fighting for the official department."

"Then fight for the Hubu! Now the Great Qin treasury is empty, and the Hubu can't get out the money. If Brother Jiang can take this opportunity to enter the Hubu, I can rest assured."
Household Department?
Jiang Yu'er could only smile bitterly in his heart.
The current Hubu is just a hard worker. The war has already started and there is no money in the treasury. If he really takes a Hubu, he will really have a headache.
Of course, from Emperor Pingle's point of view, he must be willing for Jiang Yu'er to sit in the Ministry of Household Affairs and solve Da Qin's current difficult situation.
But this difficulty arises fundamentally, and it is simply impossible to solve it in a short time.
In the history of previous lives, countless kings have learned lessons that led to the ruin of their country and family because they acted too hastily.
Jiang Yuer didn't want to see such a thing happen: "Hubu... From now on, it's best to let the Ying family members go."
"Let it go to the Ying clan...what do you mean?"
"Your Majesty, do you still remember that last time because of the incident involving Marquis Lexin, the concubine Ying Lin was forced to turn to the Queen Mother?" Jiang Yu'er reminded.
"Of course I know. Do you want Ying Lin to take charge of the household department?"
"Well, although Ying Lin's ability is not too strong, his prestige among the Ying clan is very high. Now that Da Qin is facing a crisis, the Ying clan will never sit idly by and ignore it. If Ying Lin is in charge of the household department,
He will definitely mobilize the Ying clan with all his strength to collect enough money for the frontline war."
"That's true..." Emperor Pingle seemed to have some realization.
"If His Majesty can take the initiative to propose that the Ying Supervisor should also take charge of the household department, it may also be of great benefit to the future pro-government association." Jiang Yuer continued.
"Okay, I understand." After Emperor Pingle finished speaking, he looked at Jiang Yu'er: "Then... where is Brother Jiang? Otherwise, go to the Ministry of Industry, so you can prepare in advance for river control."
This means that I cannot leave you idle!
Jiang Yuer naturally understood this, so after thinking for a while he said: "It is indeed important to regulate the river, but I am afraid that it is not something that can be done now when there is a war."
"Then go to the Ministry of War!" Emperor Pingle said again.
"That's not appropriate." Jiang Yuer shook his head.
"Where is the Criminal Department?"
"The Criminal Department is in charge of breaking the law, and there is also the Night Investigation Department here, so there is no point for me to go to the Criminal Department."
"Ministry of Rites?" Emperor Pingle asked tentatively.
"I will also participate in next year's Spring Festival. If I enter the Ministry of Etiquette, wouldn't that make people suspicious?" Jiang Yu'er smiled bitterly: "What's the difference between this and honest cheating?"
"Brother Jiang has been traveling to the Immortal Realm in his dream for twenty years, and he is the youngest bachelor in the Qin Dynasty. Who would think that Brother Jiang is cheating?" Emperor Pingle was still a little insistent.
Jiang Yu'er shook his head: "There will always be something to talk about."
Emperor Pingle probably saw Jiang Yu'er's attitude: "Brother Jiang has made great contributions to our country in the debate this time. Are you going to not fight for anything?"
"If you don't fight, you are fighting!" Jiang Yuer said seriously.
"..." Emperor Pingle.
"We're here at Jiaofangsi. We won't have any drinks, right?" Jiang Yu'er changed the subject.
Emperor Pingle could only smile: "How is that possible?"
So, Li Neiguan was immediately called, and plenty of food and drinks were served.

Although Jiang Yuer knew what Emperor Pingle was thinking, in fact, he was not willing to get too involved in the government affairs now. After all, the most important thing in his heart right now was to cultivate immortality.
…
on the other side.
On the Naihe Bridge in the underworld.
Jiang Chaoge came to Granny Meng.
Po Meng was obviously delighted with Jiang Chaoge's appearance, and immediately pulled Jiang Chaoge to sit down on the bridge: "Are you thirsty? Do you want some soup?"
"Soup...forget it." Jiang Chaoge didn't want to drink Meng Po soup: "I came this time and brought the Emperor Wu Sword."
"Emperor Wu's Sword?!" Po Meng was shocked: "Did you really bring it?"
"Yes." Jiang Chaoge nodded, and took out the Emperor Wu Sword.
The biggest reason why he brought the Emperor Wu Sword so quickly was that he had already seen the sword spirit.
According to the Sword Spirit, if you are not the owner of the Sword Spirit, it is impossible to enter the world in the Emperor Wu Sword. In this case, if you show the Emperor Wu Sword to Granny Meng, nothing will happen.
After Meng Po saw the Emperor Wu Sword, her eyes brightened significantly. She gently stroked the hilt of the Emperor Wu Sword with one hand and looked very excited.
"That's right, it's this sword!" Po Meng seemed to be recalling the past: "Three hundred years ago, Ying's son-in-law held this sword and entered the underworld. He was unbeatable."
Jiang Chaoge immediately said: "Didn't my mother-in-law say that she wanted to ask about the whereabouts of Emperor Wu's sword-winning son? You can ask now, but after asking, I still need to return the Emperor's sword."
Po Meng nodded: "Well, I won't make it difficult for you."
After saying that, she pulled out the Emperor Wu Sword, closed her eyes slightly, touched the blade lightly with her hand, and made a soft gurgling sound from her mouth.
Jiang Chaoge sat aside and waited patiently.
About a quarter of an hour passed.
Po Meng's brows wrinkled slightly: "This Emperor Wu sword..."
She seemed to be hesitant to speak.
Jiang Chaoge asked: "Is there anything wrong with this sword?"
"There is nothing wrong with the sword." Po Meng shook her head: "It's just that she doesn't seem willing to communicate too much with me. I can't enter the world in the sword."
"The Sword Comes"
As expected... Jiang Chaoge's heart moved.
Sure enough, Sword Spirit will not allow ‘outsiders’ to enter the world of the sword.
But the strange thing is, why can I enter easily?
Jiang Chaoge asked again: "Is there any way?"
"I can only throw her into the water and soak her until she is willing to communicate with me." Mrs. Meng answered.
"..." Jiang Chaoge.
Seemingly knowing Jiang Chaoge's dilemma, Mother Meng immediately smiled again: "However, since this sword is only temporarily borrowed, uukanshu.com www.uukanshu.com certainly cannot throw her into the lake."
After saying that, she handed the sword back to Jiang Chaoge's hand: "Take the Emperor Wu Sword back. In fact, I probably already know the answer."
"Do you know the answer?" Jiang Chaoge was a little surprised.
"Well, if you have the chance, you might be able to take this sword and go to the Southern Region."
"Southern Region?"
"Yes, there is a witch god there."
"..." Jiang Chaoge.
Po Meng also asked him to find the witch god?

【Let me go, Painted Skin Fairy】 【】
After Jiang Chaoge thought for a while, he thought that he might take this opportunity to ask about the Witch God, so he said, "I wonder where this Witch God came from?"
"He...he is the last great witch in the world." Po Meng replied.
"The last great witch?"
"Yes, there were originally twelve great witches, and they were called the Twelve Ancestral Witches by the world. However, after a great defeat, eleven of them died, and the only one left who was seriously injured was him."
Po Meng said directly.
But Jiang Chaoge was stunned for a moment.
The Witch God...is the last remaining one among the twelve ancestral witches?
If his guess was correct, the battle that Meng Po mentioned... was the battle between Chi You and Yan Huang, right?
But when did that happen?
Jiang Chaoge thought for a while and asked the question he wanted to know most: "Since my mother-in-law knows the origin of the witch god, does she know what the relationship is between the witch god and his son-in-law Ying?"
