Chapter 499: Focus on the Dao Gate

When Lu Xunyi returned home, he immediately reported the situation on the Lin family's side to Mo Bai.

After learning that Lin Huayao had been prepared and unscathed, Mo Bai didn't react much, but a smile rose on his face, and he nodded: "Originally, it was just a guess, and I didn't dare to be sure." Now it seems that he really did it. ”

"I can't be wrong, Daomen dispatched more than 30 grandmasters this time, and the traces of the fight are definitely real, but the result was all counted by the Lin family. With such a full defense, it must be that the Lin family is a thief. Lu Xunyi was a little indignant, and his grievances did not decrease.

"That's it, I wasn't going to kill him, but this trip can confirm that they are really making trouble behind their backs, and it is also a matter of our mind. If there really is a poisonous snake hidden in the secret that we can't guard against, that's the trouble. Mo Bai's eyes flashed slightly, and he said softly.

"It's cheaper for him this time!" Lu Xunyi heard what Mo Bai meant, and he was not ready to continue the investigation, and he was a little unwilling.

Mo Bai glanced at him and said, "Don't be in a hurry, the days ahead will be long, this time we seem to have suffered a little loss, but it is not without gains." First, let His Majesty shift his attention to the Lin family, and secondly, it also made the Daomen and the warlord department form a big bond, and although this night attack did not hurt the Lin family, it was enough to deter him, and then even if he didn't worry about it, he would never dare to provoke us easily. ”

Lu Xunyi thought about it when he heard this, but this was indeed the case, and the resentment in his heart was slightly relieved.

Suddenly, his eyes moved, he looked up at Mo Bai, and couldn't help asking: "Your Highness, those people in the Daomen have always been very slippery, but this time it is a little strange, they really shot with all their might, instead of perfunctory?" ”

Lu Xunyi hurried over non-stop, just to see if this night attack on Daomen would be just a form of coping.

The result was a big surprise to him, Daomen did not cheat and play tricks, and used so many people at one time, in the capital, he really made a ruthless hand and staged such a big show.

To be honest, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Lu Xunyijue wouldn't believe that those people from the Daomen were willing to work so hard for the Ming Palace.

"Heh, if they are willing to do this, naturally they will not really just help the Ming Palace, if they are so easy to subdue, how can they become a big disaster for the dynasty for many years?" Hearing this, Mo Bai shook his head and smiled.

"Then how did His Highness get them to agree to make a move?" When Lu Xunyi heard this, he became more and more puzzled.

"It's not surprising, coercion and temptation, since you can't make them sell their lives by coercion alone, then you naturally have to add lure and come up with chips that make them willing to die!" Mo Bai picked up the teacup and wrote lightly.

"Chips?" When Lu Xunyi heard this, his brows furrowed slightly, and he thought sharply in his mind, what kind of bargaining chips could make them comply?

Mo Bai didn't sell it, and said softly: "You should still remember the birthday gift that this king gave to the queen mother at the birthday banquet." ”

"Evergreen Pill?" Lu Xunyi's eyes paused, and he hurriedly said, "Your Highness promised to help them with alchemy?" ”

"Not bad!" Mo Bai nodded and muttered, "For so many years, the reason why the Dao Sect has been self-contained and disobedient to discipline. In fact, in the final analysis, the problem is still with these people, their cultivation and status today, and the forces of all parties can no longer satisfy them with what they want. can't give them benefits, but they still want to let them sell their lives, they naturally refuse. Over time, Daomen has become what it is today. ”

Speaking of this, Mo Bai stood up, paced back and forth a few steps with his hands behind his back, and continued: "This time there was an accident in the Ming Palace, and the murderer involved people from the Taoist family, and those few hurried to prove their innocence, seemingly afraid that I would take the opportunity to find them unlucky. But in reality? Even if I take advantage of the opportunity, I can't really take advantage of them. Therefore, they pretend to be posturing, but in fact, they are just pushing the boat down the river and taking the opportunity to show favor to me. The same is true for the previous cooperation in sending people to assist the cuckoo to go to the Dao Gate. Even the dynasty can't make them succumb, just because our Ming Wangfu can make them so attentive? Obviously, we have what they want in our hands, the four great venerables want the real person realm the most, but the two of Yuqing are already real people, and they are so diligent, so it is naturally the Evergreen Pill. ”

Lu Xunyi's eyes flashed with contemplation, and then he nodded and said, "That's the case!" ”

"With the existence of interests, naturally nothing is impossible." Speaking of this, a smile suddenly appeared at the corner of Mo Bai's mouth, turned his head to look at Lu Xunyi, and said with a smile: "But this group of old things is easy to think, they actually took the initiative to send competent people to accompany me as guards to prevent small chaos." Just try to use such a little benefit, in exchange for the evergreen pill in the hands of this king! ”

"Forehead......" The corners of Lu Xunyi's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help laughing: "So His Highness directly made it clear, if you want the Evergreen Pill, you have to let them shoot!" ”

Mo Bai also seemed to remember, the group of people at that time had an iron-colored appearance, and sighed softly: "It turns out that although they didn't want to, they did it, and they did it very well!" ”

Lu Xunyi nodded, and his heart suddenly became inexplicably much more relaxed, being able to hold the Daomen is very important to the future of the Ming Palace, but his face was suddenly stunned, as if he thought of something, and hurriedly said: "Your Highness, they are only here for the Evergreen Pill this time, not really returning to my Ming Palace." Now that they have obtained the Evergreen Pill, how should we handle them in the future? This Evergreen Pill can't be taken seriously! ”

Mo Bai waved his hand, as if he didn't care: "You're wrong, don't say that they did their best this time, even if it's just for show, even if they don't come to me, I will find a reason to give this evergreen pill to them!" ”

"Huh? Your Highness, this is ......" Lu Xunyi was stunned when he listened.

Mo Bai turned around, stared at Lu Xunyi, smiled, and didn't speak, as if he wanted him to think for himself.

Lu Xunyi groaned in his head, but in the end, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, he really couldn't figure it out, so he had to arch his hand and said: "My subordinates are stupid, please ask Your Highness to solve your doubts!" ”

Seeing this, Mo Bai couldn't help but smile bitterly, and said directly: "After so many years of experience, you are already handy in dealing with specific things, which is very good, but you need to strengthen the overall view." ”

Hearing this, Lu Xunyi's heart tightened, this was not the first time that Mo Bai reminded him that he lacked the overall situation.

When I heard it again, I couldn't help but feel nervous, but this time, Mo Bai obviously didn't mean to reprimand, but taught: "The superior must not entangle his mind on a specific matter, no matter how tricky and complicated the specific incident is, when considering how to deal with it, we must first look at the overall situation, and let every specific thing serve the overall situation." ”

"Your subordinates are stupid, please let Your Highness clear your doubts!" Lu Xunyi saluted respectfully.

"Take the recent events as an example, the most important thing we have decided at the moment is to unify the Daomen. What East Palace dispute, what joint negotiations, what conspiracy assassination, all of this, no matter how important, is not as important to us as the unification of the Daomen. Ink white said in a deep voice.

"Yes! We must hold the door in our hands, so that we can stand on the foundation, have the opportunity for development, and control the situation for us! Lu Xunyi nodded.

"Yes, in that case, if you look at what we've been doing recently, challenging real people is to win the opportunity to intervene in the Daomen. Allowing the Daomen to rebel is to weaken the strength of the Daomen. On top of the birthday banquet, he isolated himself from the prince and created a lonely situation, in order to destroy his prestige and make it easier for the Daomen to accept. suppressed the crown prince at the banquet in the East Palace, and used the assassination to scare the kings, divert His Majesty's attention, and finally beat the warlords, to put it bluntly, in addition to reducing external pressure and concentrating on the operation of the Daomen, these are also to stir up the muddy waters, so that everyone will not be easy, find something to do for them, distract their energy, and will not let them be too idle, keep an eye on the Daomen all the time, and give us problems! Mo Bai wrenched his fingers and counted all the piles and piles he had made so far.

In fact, Lu Xunyi understands and participates in these things, but to be honest, there has never been such an intuitive and clear purpose for what he has done recently.

"The so-called workers want to do their jobs well, they must first sharpen their tools, and everything before can be attributed to the necessary preparations for subduing the Daomen, so next, it is necessary to discuss the specific means and strategies for controlling the Daomen." Mo Bai's eyes were very bright, his black eyes looked extremely deep under the light, his voice was clear, and he was extremely rational: "To control the Daomen, first of all, we have to be clear, which step we have to do to be considered to truly control the Daomen." ”

Speaking of this, Mo Bai suddenly looked at Lu Xunyi, waiting for him to answer.

Lu Xunyi listened attentively, and when he heard the words, he looked up at Mo Bai, and couldn't help but hesitate a little: "Of course, let the Daomen submit to the orders of the Ming Palace!" ”

"Okay, so how do you do that?" Mo Bai asked again.

Lu Xunyi's expression became solemn, and this time he thought for a while before he said in a deep voice: "At present, the most ideal way is to start from the top down, starting from the True Venerable of the Two Mountains and Four Gates, as long as they can be subdued, that gate will be like a finger!" ”

Mo Bai was noncommittal, and asked again: "Then do you think it is possible for us to do it?" ”

"I'm afraid it's going to be difficult!" Lu Xunyi shook his head, if those few were easy to subdue, it would not be King Ming's turn to start.

"Therefore, it is almost impossible to convince them to really use me, so it means that everything is utopian." Mo Bai said softly.

Lu Xunyi opened his mouth, but he couldn't refute it.

Mo Bai paused for a moment before continuing: "Since this road is not working, then we must adjust our strategy, in my opinion, trying to subdue those six is basically equivalent to a fantasy. But if we don't set the goal so far, if we only accept a part, the difficulty will be reduced a lot. ”

"Part of it? Your Highness is saying to divide them? Lu Xunyi raised his head, and then said thoughtfully: "Whether it is Ershan or Simen, they are not stupid, they are in the same breath, and it is not easy to split them." ”
