|||->-> The King of the Northern War sat on the throne, the curtain in front of him blocked his whole person, and the four King Kongs were majestically on both sides.

Bai Mianshan knelt on one knee: "The criminal minister Bai Mianshan, see the King of the Northern War." ”

"Get up. The King of the Northern War said lukewarmly: "You have the responsibility for poor supervision when you make a mistake in this separation, but the main responsibility is not yours." Ancient warriors are the most difficult to govern, and it is an old saying that it is better to care about 30,000 ordinary people than 1,000 ancient warriors. So, you don't have to blame yourself too much. ”

Bai Mianshan is neither humble nor arrogant: "Poor supervision is poor supervision, and if something happens to each family's division, the clan must bear its own responsibility." Otherwise, in the future, the divisions of various families will all go into trouble, and the Zong family will want to stay out of the matter with the sentence of 'I don't know', wouldn't it create difficulties for the management of the royal court? Moreover, the Bai family is no more than ordinary families, and in this kind of matter, they should make an example of chickens and monkeys and severely punish them, so that the rest of the families can know the majesty of the royal court and will not neglect to restrain their respective families. ”

The Northern War King's face was unhappy.

Originally, he should have said it himself, but this old guy rushed to say it, but he couldn't get off the stage a little, and his tone was like teaching himself how to do things. In this way, even if you deal with the Bai family by yourself, it will not be interesting. Because this is his suggestion, his own request, and all he can do is to meet his request.

This is reasonable. The king of the Northern War said: "But the Bai family and the royal court have been supporting each other for so many years, shaking the Bai family, and I always feel that they are shaking the foundation of the Li family." ”

Bai Mianshan smiled slightly: "On the contrary, the Bai family is getting bigger and bigger, and many people suspect that the Bai family has a heart of disobedience and covets the royal court. ”

"Oh. In this case, what does the Bai family master think should be done with this matter?"

Bai Mianshan said: "Your Majesty is in it, and you can't seek your own government, the only thing you can do is to bear the guilt and ask the king to surrender." As for how this crime will be reduced and how much it will be reduced, Weichen does not dare to criticize it. As long as the king gives an order, the Bai family will do it. ”

The king of the Northern War said: "Okay, the lonely king decreed: first, all the warriors of the Bai family should be closed for one year and self-examination and reflection; second, all the Bai family should be divided and carried out a carpet thorough investigation to prevent the slightest slight; third, the Bai family's own five-piece suit of Guanghan battle clothes will be handed over to the royal court for safekeeping. ”

Bai Mianshan's body trembled for a long time before he said slowly: "Obey." ”

Bai Mianshan knew that the King of the Northern War had already figured out how to deal with himself and restrict the Bai family. The Bai family and the Li family each have five sets of gods armor to pass on the throne.

Because the Bai family is a family, it is passed down from generation to generation, and the five artifacts are handed over to the next head of the family;

And because the Li family is a royal court, it has adopted a completely different management method and inheritance method. When a new king ascends the throne, he inherits two pieces and regains the remaining three pieces that are in the hands of his brothers.

And when the new king has a prince, he will give one reward to the prince, and two to the excellent prince, and two for himself.

When the old king abdicates, if a successor is determined, then he has to take back two of them and hold four for himself. When the new king ascended the throne, he took over the other four pieces, maintaining the number of five. Repeat in turn.

The king of the Northern War himself has two, the prince has one, the uncle has one, and the seventh master Li Liang also has one.

So

, the suit of the Black Cloud War Armor, in the Northern Warring States is actually a symbol of throne and power, and whoever receives this reward proves that whoever is likely to become the next king. But under normal circumstances, it is the crown prince who ascends the throne, and the reason why the other princes are also rewarded with black cloud suits is to let the prince have a sense of crisis and be able to continue to exert his strength and make continuous progress.

Of course, there are also examples of the crown prince being deposed, others becoming new kings, and there are even cases of becoming new kings without obtaining the Black Cloud suit. This person is the King of the Northern War.

The King of the Northern War also knew that the Forgiveness God Battle Armor was the heirloom of the Bai family, and once it was forcibly withdrawn, the turmoil caused by it might be the collapse of the sky. If the Bai family rises up to resist at this time, the whole of China will be shaken.

However, Bai Yuhua gave him this concern and this reason. The power of the two Guanghan battle suits almost cost the life of one of his sons, and now if you count the two pieces that you confiscated, you have already collected seven pieces of the Forgiveness Battle Armor.

Once the seven pieces of battle armor fall into the Bai family's hands, and in Bai Mianshan's hands, the ghost knows what the effect will be.

For as long as he can remember, he has never heard of a single family that has collected more than five armors. But the five armors are definitely already the existence of combat effectiveness that can stand at the top of Huaxia. More than six pieces of combat power, no one has ever seen it, and no one even dares to think about it.

And now, times are different. The battle armor of the gods appeared one after another, Li Huachen took out a black cloud crossing, and the little ghost of the Bai family also made the Guanghan cloak and the waning moon in Kyushu, and that guy also made some famous .......

The Northern War King has a hunch that the times will usher in great changes, and it is very likely that there will be a blowout excavation of the gods and armors. Maybe his time is still under control, but in the era after his death, he really doesn't dare to think about .......

In case the owner of one set of battle armor gathers a full set of god battle armor, then, the entire ancient martial arts world of Huaxia will be subverted, and everything existing will be shattered and reorganized. Whether it is the division of the five major war power regions, or Zhong Jihuang's supreme dominance, or the rise and fall of the ancient warrior families and sects...... It's going to be a mess.

And at that time, he is no longer there, can his children and grandchildren really control the overall situation?

If his heir cannot maintain such a leading position in the next generation, then the Li family will face a bloody massacre. The Black Cloud Armor will change to a family as the master, and his descendants will take the lives of the whole clan because ......of it.

So, he couldn't wait any longer. He believed that the others would never wait, and they would frantically collect battle armor to improve and consolidate their family's combat effectiveness to face the future storms.

This is an arms race with no way out.

Everyone understands a truth, as long as you don't rob, I don't rob, everything remains the same, everything is in order, and the world will be peaceful. But the royal court longs for peace in the world, for eternity, and for a step-by-step basis. What about the careerists?

If you want to subvert the world and gain your own power, there are more than 10 million people? Waiting is waiting for death, and if you don't wait for death, you can only join. And once joined, it will intensify this competition and cause more serious friction and fighting.

I can't stop, everyone can't stop. To stop is to wait for death.

Therefore, the King of the Northern War wants to strike first and deal with the most threatening Bai family around him first, if the Bai family obediently hands over the battle armor of the gods, then they are loyal

The heart is commendable, and in the future they are a force that can be relied on;

If you don't pay it, even if you start a full-scale war with the Bai family, you will not hesitate to do it.

This is the decision of the King of the Northern War.

However, the King of the Northern War didn't expect that Bai Mianshan agreed quite happily. He thought only briefly before nodding in agreement. There was no complaint, no plea, no appeal, and obediently bowed to the law.

The King of the Northern War knows that things are definitely not so simple. This Bai Mianshan was too calm, but it was wrong, and the Northern War King was behind the curtain, clenching his fists slightly.

Bai Mianshan said: "Forgiveness suit, now that the family is enshrined, I need some time to take care of the family affairs and let this matter have a buffer." With all due respect, such a punishment is too severe, and I am worried that the people of the Bai family will not understand. ”

"Oh. The king of the Northern War said: "Okay, you can do it." ”

"You look at it" four people, and there are many meanings. You can also understand it as a kind of expectation, I hope you can do it well, and by extension, it can be understood as a kind of faint threat, whether I do it or not, whether I listen or not, you can watch and do it yourself.

Bai Mianshan slowly stood up: "Weichen retreated." ”

The Northern War King looked at Bai Mianshan's back with a serious face. That back, calmly entered, and the footsteps were steady. Unlike before, his back showed a kind of resoluteness, a kind of resoluteness that made people shudder and was very worried.

The King of the Northern War looked at his back, his heart was half cold, and he felt that this man would probably never kneel at his feet again.

A dark shadow flashed out: "Your Majesty, just ask them to hand over the five artifacts, will they give in?"

"Probably not. ”

"Then why ....... ”

"If it's a problem, it will have to be solved sooner or later. The king of the Northern War said: "Don't I want to leave this bomb to my descendants." ”

"The subordinate understood. Black Cloud Armor, do you want to recall?"

The King of the Northern War turned his head, looked at the man in black, and thought for a moment: "Don't use it yet." ”

"But ....... ”

"Nothing. The King of the Northern War said: "I don't want to stimulate them, once the Black Cloud Battle Armor is recalled, my group of sons will be cranky, they will think wildly, and they will go wrong." And if the Bai family knew about it, they would have more confidence to fight me. ”

"Your Majesty, you still have a glimmer of hope that he will hand it over obediently, don't you?"

"Yes. Until then, I don't want to irritate the Bai family. The King of the Northern War said, "Do you have a different opinion?"

"The subordinates thought that Bai Mianshan would definitely not sit still, and in the eyes of their Bai family, handing over all the Forgiveness Armor was tantamount to handing over their greatest reliance to threaten the royal power. If it is really handed over, not only him, but also his descendants, I am afraid that they will not have the strength to confront the royal court. They must not allow to lose hope. ”

"Hope....... Am I robbing them of hope?"

The Northern War King smiled bitterly and coughed lightly: "They may feel aggrieved and feel that I am taking away their faith, but in my opinion, the kind of faith that can threaten the royal court has ...... from the beginning. ”

The eyes of the Northern War King were sharp: "...... It shouldn't exist. ”
