Chapter 90: Matters of the Heart
Nan Lingsha really can't stand these two people.
It felt as if there was some kind of tacit understanding between them.
Looking at Zhu Minglang again, there doesn't seem to be anything extraordinary, why Li Yunzi seems to have a special indulgence towards him.
Could it be true that because of the dewy mandarin duck love?
"You continue to flirt, and Miss Ben takes her leave. Nan Lingsha stood up, with a little resentment.
"Frost, send rain...... Give her an umbrella. Li Yunzi looked outside the courtyard and seemed to see the dark clouds slowly obscuring the bright sky.
"No!" Nan Lingsha didn't have a good breath, she glanced at Zhu Minglang with the pastries on the plate, but she wrapped the pastries very delicately, tied a delicate and beautiful bow, and then gently lifted it.
"The dim sum made by Xinghua can't be all cheap for him. With that, she hummed a little song arrogantly and walked out with a small pastry.
Zhu Minglang held the bean cake in his hand, his eyes looked at Nan Lingsha's shadow, revealing a little reluctance.
Such a delicious bean cake was snatched away by her!
I don't know if Li Yunzi still has anything in the house, so pack some back when I leave.
"Fourth Miss, your umbrella, you bring one, otherwise your pastries will be wet. Frost took an umbrella and chased it out.
is worthy of Li Yunzi's maid, so witty and intelligent, she has created a relaxed and comfortable space without violating the harmony at all.
"Besides, it tastes so good, I haven't tasted it in a long time. Zhu Minglang finished eating the last half of the bean cake, took a sip of tea, and waited for the pastry powder in his mouth to completely melt before asking.
Gluttony, but also have to be personable.
"It's gone. Li Yunzi said, gently handing the one in front of her that had not been touched much to Zhu Minglang, probably she also saw that Zhu Minglang had delayed lunch in order to enter the Li family's royal courtyard.
"Although you said that you were in a better mood when you came back this time, I feel that you are still worried, is something bothering you, and it is better to talk to me than to be stuffy in your heart?" Zhu Minglang said.
"Good. Li Yunzi nodded.
Zhu Minglang was a little surprised, it was just a polite gesture, and he was purely concerned about Li Yunzi's condition.
I didn't expect her to really want to talk to herself.
Under normal circumstances, shouldn't Li Yunzi hide all the conditions in her heart?
"It's okay, you eat yours, I say mine. Li Yunzi saw Zhu Minglang sitting in a precarious position, and said in a soft tone.
"Yes. Zhu Minglang was not too restrained.
"Before the New Year's celebration, all the soldiers wanted to return, including the big city-states in the south, and they also felt that we would definitely withdraw our troops before the year. But in the end, on the day of their anniversary, our guards captured their main city. Li Yunzi calmly narrated.
Zhu Minglang suddenly felt that the pastry was a little choked, so he hurriedly poured a cup of tea and moistened his throat.
The city-states to the south were occupied???
A winter??
It's also a city-state, although it's not as strong as the ancestral dragon city-state, so it's not like this......
To put it mildly, a few words can make Zhu Minglang's heart extremely shocked.
The New Year's celebration, on the one hand, is colorful, festive and auspicious, but on the other hand, the soldiers are coming to the city, and the mountains and rivers are shaking!
Even if he didn't witness it with his own eyes, Zhu Minglang could still imagine the picture with a great soul impact.
"Wutu, the military guard is established, and in the summer at the latest, the state of Wutu will be established, with Zhang Tuo as the leader of the city-state military division, and Zheng Yu as the city lord. Li Yunzi then recounted.
Zhu Minglang took a deep breath.
From Zheng Yu's letters and the constant border battles, Zhu Minglang already felt Li Yunzi's ambition.
What Zhu Minglang didn't expect was that in just one winter, one and a half springs, there would be two city-states around the Zulong City-State, which belonged to Li Yunzi alone!
"Ancestral Dragon City is the foundation, no matter how many cities I take, once something happens to the Ancestral Dragon City-State, my seventeen battles in the past half a year will be meaningless. Li Yunzi continued.
"Lingxiao City began to condemn, the Zong Palace began to obstruct, they regarded me as a demon, constantly starting wars, and constantly displacing the people. Li Yunzi looked at Zhu Minglang.
Zhu Minglang refilled Li Yunzi with a cup of tea, and also looked into her eyes.
"I can't see the joy of seizing power and winning the city in your eyes, you are not obsessed with power, and you don't care about wealth, what do you want, can you tell me?" Zhu Minglang finally couldn't help but ask this sentence.
What exactly did she want?
In this land, although the war has never subsided, half of the wars are now caused by Li Yunzi, and all of them are wars that can be called invasion and occupation set off by Li Yunzi.
After seizing the city-state in the south, and wanting to become an independent state, if the Zulong city-state is completely used by her, she will have the three major city-states alone!
Li Yunzi's eyes finally had emotions flowing at this time, like a sword dazzling and sharp.
"Founding a country!" she said.
Country, this is not a strange word to the major city-states, but there is no country in this land.
The city-states are independent from each other, and there is no such thing as an alliance, except for the statement that the clan palace occupies some checks and balances, basically every city-state is a small kingdom!
What Li Yunzi wants is the unification of the city-state and the establishment of the country!
What an ambition!!
Zhu Minglang felt that he really underestimated Li Yunzi, thinking that she was just regaining her own monarchy, but he didn't expect that what she wanted was the real dominance of the land!
"So your enemy is actually the Zonggong?" Zhu Minglang said with a wry smile.
"I don't have any real enemies, only obstructors in the middle of the way. Li Yunzi replied.
"I don't understand, if you really want to achieve the position of the lord of the country, you can wait until the Wutu is prosperous, and you can slowly encroach on Nanbang, and even wait until the overall situation within the Zulong City-State is stable, why do you want to ...... at this time" Zhu Minglang shook his head.
No, although Li Yunzi won a big victory, and even took Nanbang by surprise, her foundation is unstable, internal and external troubles, and it won't be long before she will be forced into a desperate situation!
She couldn't have foreseen this, so why was she so anxious.
If we want to build a country, we can't rush it for a while.
"In order to take Lampang, I was injured, and the people who hindered me already knew about it. Li Yunzi said.
Zhu Minglang opened his mouth, but stopped talking.
Nan Lingsha came over at this time, did she also come to explore Li Yunzi's injury?
In this way, Nan Lingsha is still one of Li Yunzi's obstacles after all, she holds the power of the Nan clan, even if she ignores the power struggle, but as long as she has the intention to interfere, it is difficult for Li Yunzi to gain a firm foothold in the ancestral dragon city-state......
There are many enemies, and when they return to recuperate, the Lingxiao city-state will not let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and the Zong Palace will even sanction Li Yunzi.
"Why don't you have any guards around you, it's too unsafe, after all, there are many ill-intentioned people in this Li family's royal courtyard. Zhu Minglang stood up and looked around the courtyard.
Even if he sensed it with spiritual power, Zhu Minglang couldn't feel that any master was around Li Yunzi.
"Even if there are ten thousand armies, there are no one or two who can be trusted, and the so-called allegiance and so-called belief are no match for coercion and temptation. Li Yunzi's words were a little sad.
After experiencing a fall and tasting the taste of humiliation, she knows better than anyone else at this time that the so-called support and the so-called loyalty are all clouds of smoke, and they will disperse as soon as the strong wind comes.
"This ......" Zhu Minglang listened, and suddenly felt a little distressed.
People's hearts are indeed like this, even if the soil gives them vitality, but there are better interests, they will soon betray and even spurn.
This kind of thing has not happened before.
