Hear the words.

Li Qing's expression was extremely calm, he already knew about Zhang Xiaoyu, with the support of Long Que intentionally or unintentionally, the Fish Dragon Gang had recovered its original prosperity in a very short period of time, and even its strength was even stronger.

Although Li Qing doesn't ask about the affairs of the court now, the intelligence agency he set up has been running, sending all kinds of news in the imperial capital to him, and the rise of the Ichthyosaurus Gang is almost completed under his nose.

Zhang Xiaoyu walked out of the apse, his expression was extremely calm, perhaps because of Long Que, the clothes he was wearing looked much more luxurious than before, although so, his body did not add a few riches, on the contrary, between his eyebrows, there were a few more fierce angers.

Seeing Li Qing, Zhang Xiaoyu bent down slightly and said in a loud voice: "Meet the Iron Blood King." ”

Li Qing's expression was very shocked, and he said slowly: "You and I are both doing things for the empire, so let's get rid of these cumbersome etiquette." ”

Zhang Xiaoyu nodded and said with a smile: "Since the Iron Blood King said this, then I'm not welcome." ”

With a smile on his face, Long Que said, "Now, in the empire, because of the continuous conquest, the treasury is empty, and the strength of the army has suffered heavy losses...... This is to make the various sects in the empire think that they have an opportunity, and almost go crazy to select excellent disciples from the empire and cultivate them. ”

Zhang Xiaoyu's expression showed a hint of ferocity, and said: "No matter how powerful the major sects are, they can't stop the iron cavalry of the empire...... Now that there is a sect jumping out, then we don't need to worry about anything, just wipe them all out. ”

Li Qing's expression was still very calm.

Seeing this, Long Que couldn't help but ask, "I don't know what the Iron Blood King thinks?"

Li Qing's expression remained unchanged, and he said softly: "It's not a strange thing for the major sects to compete for excellent disciples, it has been since ancient times, in the empire, there are not less than a hundred large and small sects, and we know very well the most powerful ones...... We can do things to make an example of chickens and monkeys, but if we want to completely exterminate all the sects in the empire, it is too difficult. ”

Zhang Xiaoyu's eyebrows couldn't help but raise, and he said slowly: "Why does the Iron Blood King want to increase the popularity of others and destroy his own prestige, no matter how powerful the sect is, it can't parry countless jackals...... Wasn't the original Sword Sect extremely powerful?

The words fell.

Long Que and Li Qing's expressions changed.

"The Sword Sect is already in the past tense, and at the beginning, we had to face other sects in the empire. ”

Long Que said softly.

Zhang Xiaoyu said in a deep voice: "That's what the minister means, the Sword Sect can be destroyed, not to mention the other sects, as long as we put in enough effort, it is enough to exterminate them." ”

Facing Zhang Xiaoyu's re-emphasis, Long Que's eyes revealed a faint color, you must know that his superiority was indispensable to the disciples of the Sword Sect, when the Battle of the Nanban broke out, it was also the first disciple of the Sword Sect to rush to the Nanban to rescue the Nanban from the dire situation...... Although the Sword Sect left the territory of Taiqian, when the Taiqian Empire was in trouble, the disciples of the Sword Sect still helped Taiqian without hesitation.

When Long Que sat on the throne, there were many ministers who asked for the Sword Sect to be invited back to the empire, and some even asked for the Sword Sect to be named the Protector of the Country...... The requests of the ministers were naturally rejected by Long Que in various ways, and of course, in the future, those ministers were naturally ruthlessly expelled and gradually moved away from the official positions that could be spoken.

The people who can be officials above the court are all old foxes who have become elites, so naturally they can see Long Que's thoughts, and no one is willing to disobey the emperor's intentions, so they simply don't mention the matter of the Sword Sect anymore, and even deliberately avoid it.

At the beginning—

Long Yue expelled the Sword Sect from the empire after painstaking planning, how could he lead the wolf into the house again?

But—

As the king of a country, Long Que can't weaken his reputation, so he can only rely on power to erase the existence of the Sword Sect.

Li Qing's expression did not change in the slightest, from Long Yue to Long Que, he has witnessed the growth of the two emperors, and he has also seen through the emperor's mind, what kind of calculation Long Que has in his heart, he is very clear in his heart.

"Today is different from the past, and I hope that the emperor can act prudently. ”

Li Qing said in a solemn tone.

Long Que nodded and said, "Of course, among the major sects in the empire, the inheritance is different, and the strength is also uneven, we must take it step by step and boil the frog in warm water...... Let all the sects in the empire be unified. ”

At the end of his words, Long Que unconsciously aggravated his tone.

Li Qing's eyes couldn't help but have a hint of discoloration - Long Que's ambition was indeed much greater than Long Yue's.

With a move in his heart, Li Qing couldn't help but think - whether this was an imperial blessing or a disaster.

Of course, the answer is no.

As the saying goes, it's all up to time to test.

Zhang Xiaoyu nodded slowly, his expression revealed fierceness, and said sharply: "Your Majesty, since this is the case, then let's start from this imperial capital...... These days, our Fish and Dragon Gang has found a lot of strongholds of other sects, and we have directly pulled them out, so that no one in the court will give them any nonsense. ”

Long Que nodded and said, "Yes...... This Jade Dragon Gang is the pioneer first!"

Zhang Xiaoyu said in a deep voice: "The minister understands...... The minister retired. ”

Long Que said: "Good ......"

Watching Zhang Xiaoyu leave, Long Que's gaze fell on Li Qing again, stood up straight, walked in front of Li Qing, and said loudly: "The Iron Blood King is not optimistic about my decision. ”

Li Qing nodded and said: "That's true, there are some things that the emperor needs to think about carefully, you must know that the Sword Sect has the consciousness of saving the common people as its own responsibility, but other sects may not...... Once things get big...... It's not impossible for a fish to die and the net to be broken. ”

Long Que nodded, a smile appeared in his expression, and said: "The Iron Blood King is worried about the truth, but it doesn't matter, I also have a very important role, when it is critical, he will play a great role, and he will also help you when the time comes...... But the time is not yet ripe for me to tell you. ”
