Longyuan City, Huangji Palace.

"General Murong, although you lost a lot of troops in this battle, you also successfully annihilated the foreign army and eliminated the great trouble in your heart for Gu. Why do you want to be idle, unload your armor and return to the field?"

Agarwood swaying, rising in a curling way, arranged in rows in the air, as if carefully written neat seal characters, is about to condense into shape, and slowly dissipate with the wind.

On the top floor of the stairs in the main hall, the Tongsheng Emperor sat on the white jade throne, his grim expression slightly displeased.

In his understanding, Murong Lie has always had the grand ambition of galloping across the field and making contributions, why was he depressed after the battle of Cangya Mountain, and he was full of thoughts of returning to the mountains.

According to common sense, after the annihilation of the foreign army, Murong Lie moved the royal city and was crowned as the Marquis of Wanhu, who should have been high-spirited and made persistent efforts to serve the dynasty, but who expected to play to the Tongsheng Emperor repeatedly, intending to return the seal ribbon and resign and return to his hometown.

Murong Lie's brows sank slightly, standing in the center of the main hall, in the battle of Cangya Mountain, he witnessed his subordinates die one by one, and almost wiped out the entire army at the hands of the undead legion of Heyu Ji.

Now that he was able to survive by luck, it all relied on the full assistance of the various sects, if it weren't for Baili Hongsheng who arrived in time to swallow the Heavenly Dragon King with the King of Garuda, Murong Lie should have become a cold white bone in the undead army at this time, just like those soldiers who disappeared.

Ever since he returned, he had been wandering in his heart, tossing and turning all night and unable to sleep, and when he closed his eyes, he was greeted by the gloomy white bones that surged like a wave.

In his opinion, those white bones were not some demons and monsters, but a dynasty soldier with blurred flesh and blood.

Even, there is an unyielding figure of Huangfu Yin, struggling in front of his eyes from time to time.

He panicked, in the end, would he also end up like this?

Every time he thought of this, Murong Lie felt extremely painful, if the Teng Air Regiment was still there, these soldiers would probably not die in vain.

"Your Majesty, the wisdom of the ministers is despicable, and the command is inadequate, which causes countless soldiers under his command to die tragically, and their hearts are depressed and sick, and they are sick all day long. It is not enough to carry a gun and mount a horse to fight for the dynasty and crusade against the enemy. I also hope that Wang Shangnian has some hard work in Weichen, and allows me to return to my hometown. ”

Murong Lie's expression was sad, his words were sincere, if he wanted to talk about why he insisted on removing his armor and returning to seclusion, he repeatedly expressed his intention to abdicate to the Tongsheng Emperor.

One is as he said, because after the battle of Cangya Mountain, most of the dynasty soldiers led by his subordinates were killed and wounded, and he saw them become eerie undead skeletons with his own eyes. Since then, he has been depressed and silent.

But although these would make Murong Lie feel like retreating, they were not enough for him to insist on making repeated requests to the Tongsheng Emperor.

There are other key points that he can't say.

Second, the name of the dynasty is Tongsheng Emperor, who has full power, but in fact, the Tantai family covers the sky. Murong Lie's return from annihilating the alien army this time and his fame will definitely threaten their status, making him jealous and pay more attention.

The Tantai family has sent people to find Murong Lie many times, pretending to give expensive gifts to celebrate his achievements, but the real purpose is actually to demonstrate to him.

If you see the current affairs clearly and are attached to the Tantai family, you can still live a stable life in the dynasty, otherwise, you will be brutally attacked by them in the way of excluding dissidents, and you will follow in the footsteps of Huangfu Yin.

The Tantai family is ambitious and wolf-like, and will never tolerate anyone other than the Tongsheng Emperor threatening their rights and interests.

Murong Lie considered compromising with the Tantai family, but the thought of Tsuruhaji's tragic fate made him shudder. For this reason, he thought about it again and again, it is better to protect himself and withdraw from this ruthless whirlpool of power.

The Tongsheng Emperor smiled and said in a majestic voice: "You are bent on getting out, is there something unspeakable?"

Murong Lie's tiger body was shocked, he didn't expect the Tongsheng Emperor to actually see the clue, but he understood that even if he knew it, he couldn't say it frankly.

The strength of the Shantai family, in the eyes of the Emperor Tongsheng, if he hadn't supported it, it would not be such a dominant situation as it is now.

What's more, the youngest daughter of Tantai Wuji, Tantai Yeji, is now the most favored concubine in the palace, and her status is enough to be compared with the queen of the dynasty, and even faintly transcendence. If you blow any pillow wind, it is enough to set off a bloody storm in the royal city.

Murong Lie knew that with his current situation alone, it was impossible to fight against the Tantai family.

Even if the Tongsheng Emperor can deduce some hidden secrets, he will not choose to attack the Tantai family in the end.

Murong Lie thought for a few breaths, and said in a deep voice: "The king has a heart, and Weichen does not have any hidden feelings, all because of his illness, it is inconvenient to enter and exit. and was lucky to be able to sweep away foreign troops for the dynasty, and he was already satisfied. I only hope to be able to retreat to the countryside and recuperate in peace for the rest of the year. ”

In this way, if you impose it again, it will be unkind. As he spoke, the Tongsheng Emperor stood up, strode to the center of the main hall, and reached out to take the general's seal ribbon that Murong Lie held in his hand.

"From now on, although you can unload your armor and return to the field, you don't ask about the court. But if there is a strong enemy coming, I hope you can come and give advice, and worry about loneliness. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty. ”

As Murong Lie expected, the alien army has been eliminated now, and the Quartet is basically calm. The Emperor Tongsheng can completely withdraw his military power to prevent internal chaos and sudden military trouble.

Therefore, it was indeed a wise move for him to insist on resigning. Not only can it cater to the will of the Tongsheng Emperor, but it can also avoid the slander and deliberate impeachment of the Tantai family.

......

Sunset Gate.

"Oh, you two actually found the Four Elephant Spirit Disc in a place where it is impossible for the Four Elephant Spirit Disc to appear?"

The main curtain of the Sunset Gate looked at the two people who came to meet Wolf Qi and Xiong Gang with interest.

At first, because these two people had committed some intolerable mistakes, Makusha felt that it was useless to keep them, and it was a pity to abandon them, so he sent them to join the imperial army, saying that they were undercover to observe, in order to obtain information about the Four Elephants Spirit Plate.

The curtain smiled secretly, relying on these two elm heads to find the Four Elephant Spirit Plate, it was a big joke!

In fact, let them exile themselves and fend for themselves.

Unexpectedly, the sea water is incomparable.

These two fools actually brought back the Four Elephant Spirit Disk.

"Dissatisfied with the master, I waited for the two of them to spend a lot of effort and rampage among thousands of troops and horses to snatch back this treasure!"

"That's right!"

Xiong Gang's eyes widened, and he stretched out his fat hand to grab a bright Huoyun Holy Fruit, threw it into his mouth and bit it, and couldn't wait to devour it.

After returning to the sect, Wolf Gang took out the Huoyun Holy Fruit as promised and shared it with Xiong Gang, who expected that after eating for a while, Wolf Gang excused himself and wanted to leave.

Xiong Gang thought about it, it must be more than these Fire Cloud Holy Fruits stored by the wolf, and he wanted to secretly eat a good meal!

As the white jade disc held by the wolf got closer and closer, the eyes covered with haze of the curtain lit up, shining like the clouds and the sun.

"Please also ask the door master to take a look. Wolf said.

Without waiting for the wolf to finish speaking, the curtain grabbed it with one hand and put it in front of his gloomy eyes to look at it carefully.

The luster of the white jade disc is elegant and secluded, and it looks unique and shining in the gloomy hall.

After watching it for a while, an intriguing smile appeared on Makusha's pale face.

"You two are the real treasures!...... hahaha," Makusha said and laughed maniacally.

When the wolf heard this, his heart blossomed, and he almost couldn't hold back the joy of dancing with joy in his heart, seeing that the curtain was so happy, he didn't need to think about it, most of the treasures they brought back this time were the four elephant spirit plates that Sunset Gate was looking for in every possible way!

"Oh haha! Beauty, jewelry, promotion...... Which wish should I put forward in order to be worthy of the grievances I suffered in the imperial army?"

Wolf Qi was secretly ecstatic in his heart, and he couldn't help but think about it.

Xiong Gang threw another Huoyun Holy Fruit into his mouth, chewed it, suddenly opened his round eyes, and after a few breaths, he showed an intoxicated smile and said quietly: "I'm a baby?

"You two, you are really stupid beyond help!" The curtain covered with gloomy eyes widened angrily, and said angrily: "I picked up a plate and came back, and I thought it was the Four Elephant Spirit Plate? If it was really so easy to get my hands on, I would have done it a long time ago!"

He had long known that the Four Elephant Spirit Plate could not be found in the hands of these two people, and the reason why he still had a glimmer of hope was because this jade plate was indeed too similar to him.

Wolf Gang and Xiong Gang were frightened when they heard this, and the beautiful fantasies on their faces also fled in shock, becoming nervous and cramped.

Just now, I was full of joy, thinking that I had survived out of the ascension to heaven, and I could finally live a proud life in the spring breeze. Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, it has been a change of stars, things are people, everything is endless desolation, and the emptiness is melancholy, and for the rest of my life, there is no entertainment at all.

"Hmm...... How do we place you?" a grim smile bent out of the curtain cover, like a dagger quenched with poison, which made people shudder.

As the number one person in the Sunset Gate, if you don't have some clever means to deal with people, won't you lose your identity and lose your prestige?

The more they looked at it, the more shocked they became, and they felt that there was an inexplicable gust of cold wind coming, cold and biting. I want to say something to justify, but I am afraid that it will backfire, and I don't know what kind of tragic end it will end.

Life and death are fateful, and wealth is in the sky.

Or keep silent, and let the master of the door deal with the fate, so as not to breed any more faults.

Seeing the cowardly look of the wolf and the two, the gloomy smile on the face of the curtain was even stronger, and said: "There is a secret scroll hidden in the door, which seems to record the news of a treasure, many people have been there, but they have not succeeded. The four hall masters were too busy searching for the whereabouts of the Four Elephant Spirit Plates to take care of them. It just so happens that the two of you can go and investigate, although this trip is a bit dangerous, but with the blessing of your great ingenuity, you can naturally get along safely. ”
