Su Mei looked at Bai Jin and said, "First, give me your Ice Silkworm Gu King." ”

Bai Jin did not hesitate and said: "If you want to fight for the position of saintess, the Ice Silkworm Gu is indispensable, this is for you." ”

Su Mei continued: "I want half of the income of the natural residence. ”

Bai Jin frowned and said, "These silver are for the preparation of the incident......

Gongsun Ying tugged at her sleeve, stepped forward, and said, "Okay, I will also promise you this on behalf of Senior Sister." ”

Su Mei looked at them and said, "Third, during the time you stay in Jingshi, don't make trouble in Chen Guo, let alone make trouble for my father-in-law." ”

Bai Jin nodded.

Su Mei said again: "Fourth ......"

Bai Jin frowned and said, "And the fourth?" ”

Su Mei looked at her and asked, "Do you think it's too much?" ”

Bai Jin took a deep breath and said, "Not much, you continue to ......"

After a long time, when Su Mei finished saying all the requirements, Bai Jin looked at her and said, "These days, you come to the natural residence every day, and your uncle and I will teach you everything we have learned all our lives. ”

"I can't come every day." Su Mei shook her head and said, "At most, once every two days, I will accompany my father-in-law." ”

Bai Jin took a deep breath and nodded for a long time before he said, "Okay." ”

Su Mei left the natural residence, Gongsun Ying looked in the direction of the door, and said unconvinced: "Why do I think that she is happy to be a saint?" ”

"Anyway, as long as she says yes." Bai Jin looked at Gongsun Ying and said, "Now you can tell me, where is King Wu, right?" ”

"Your Highness is not suitable to show up now, when the time comes, you will naturally be able to see it." Gongsun Ying avoided this topic and asked: "It's you, you have been in Beijing all these years, you shouldn't have only opened a restaurant, you are in Beijing, what else do you have to deploy?" ”

Bai Jin glanced at her and said, "When the time comes, you will naturally know." ”

……

King Qian's vein was completely cold, Bai Jin wanted to restore the country, but he had no choice but King Wu, so she and Gongsun Ying came to Jingshi, wanting to train Su Mei to become a new generation of saints of the Ten Thousand Gu Sect, control the Ten Thousand Gu Sect, and indirectly help them to restore the country.

In order for their family to have a safe place in the future, Su Mei is also determined to obtain the position of the Holy Maiden of the Ten Thousand Gu Sect.

This was her own meaning, and even Downing couldn't make her change her mind, so he could only choose to support it.

Tang Ning was a little worried about her safety, although her strength was already very strong among the younger generation, but it still couldn't be compared with the older generation like Gongsun Ying Bai Jin, Tang Ning couldn't let her go to Qiandi alone with confidence.

"Don't worry." Su Mei looked at him and comforted: "There is still a long time before the next saintess competition, before that, they will teach me everything they have learned all their lives, and even if they can't be saints, there will be no danger." ”

The old beggar squatted beside him and asked casually, "You Ten Thousand Gu Sect, there are no saints yet?" ”

Su Mei looked at him and said, "My master said that since the death of the previous generation of saints and several elders, the sect has interrupted a period of inheritance, and there has never been a saint since then. ”

The old beggar shook his head and said, "I told you a long time ago, hiding in the mountains and playing with insects has no future, and when you come out for a walk, you just don't listen to ......."

Su Mei looked at him and said in surprise, "What did you say?" ”

The old beggar waved his hand, said no more, and got up to leave.

Tang Ning always felt that the old beggar had something to do with the Ten Thousand Gu Sect, he said that he had traveled a lot of places when he was young, and he knew a little bit of Gu art, so it seemed that he had to find an opportunity to get some good things out of him again.

During the time when Tang Ning left Beijing, the wind direction in Beijing changed greatly.

Before he left, there were battles in the court every day, and there were often tears in the court, and King Duan and King Kang were inseparable, but during this time, the two of them were quieter than the other, and their sense of presence in the court was extremely low.

The reason why this situation occurs is because the general environment has changed, and who should be the seat of the East Palace is no longer the focus of attention of the officials.

The strength of the grasslands and the Western Regions, and the threat they pose to the northwest of Chen State, are the most serious and acute problems that Chen State is currently facing.

No matter how stupid King Duan and King Kang are, they will not still intrigue and show off their cleverness in the face of major rights and wrongs.

Speaking of the northwest, although the south of the Yangtze River has calmed down and the pressure on the northwest has plummeted, it is only temporary.

The alliance between Chen and Chu lasted only two years, and in two years, the Wanyan Department rose from the contrarian trend and continued to grow with an unstoppable momentum.

At the same time, Xiao Wan of the Western Regions also forcibly broke into everyone's sight, and did not hide his tiger and wolf heart.

Chen Guo could not wait until they began to cause trouble in the northwest before making deployments, since sooner or later they would have to fight, it was better to seize the initiative first.

In terms of the grassland, Emperor Chen sent a letter of state to the state of Chu a few days ago, wanting to change the passive to the active, and the two countries joined forces to take the initiative to meet the Sushen tribes.

In terms of the Western Regions, the imperial court has also made arrangements, mainly to unite the small countries in the Western Regions, contain the trend of Xiaowan's expansion, and then wait for the opportunity to nip the rebellion in the Western Regions in the bud.

Emperor Chen now has silver, exempts the two provinces from taxes in the northwest, and vigorously recruits troops in the northwest, all of which show that he wants to fight to the end against the western regions of the grassland.

This is also an opportunity for the children of the generals in Beijing, especially the generals who have declined.

Their family has declined, and if they want to revive their glory, they can only accumulate enough military exploits.

Liu Jun, Mu Yu, and Huang Yulong had already greeted Tang Ning and wanted to go to Shazhou, the forefront of the border with the Western Regions.

The west side is much safer than the north, after all, the enemies on the grassland are more warlike, and the contradictions with the Chen State are also deeper, as long as they have a lot of seniority in the west, make some merits, and continue the glory of the family generation, it is not a big problem.

Tang Ning could understand their thoughts, and he had already greeted the military department, and he would transfer them out in a few days.

However, when Xiao Jue, who had just been promoted, stood opposite him and told him with a very serious expression that he was also going to the grassland to kill barbarians, Tang Ning was still startled.

Although Xiao Jue has told him more than once that a real man should fight on the battlefield and make meritorious achievements, those exploits are all fought for with his life.

He looked at Xiao Jue and said in shock: "You are crazy, one Zhonglang general is not enough for you, what are you doing on the grassland?" ”

The Xiao family is the only one left, if something happens to him, how can he explain to Old Master Xiao, how to explain to Lu Ya?

"The Xiao family is a general, what kind of generalization is no military exploits?" Xiao Jue shook his head and said, "My father is old, I am the only man in the Xiao family, at least I have to sit in your current position to ensure the continuation of the Xiao family......"

"You want to sit in my place?" Tang Ning looked at him and said, "You wait for another two years, two years at most, and I will give you this position." ”

"What's the point of letting the generals out?" Xiao Jue smiled self-deprecatingly and said, "I'm also a man, I don't want to touch your light every time, I want to prove to them that there are still men in the Xiao family......"

"You're dead to this heart." Tang Ning waved his hand and said, "Your father won't agree to this matter, Lu Ya won't agree, and I won't agree either." ”

Xiao Jue smiled and said, "I can go directly to your majesty, and if your majesty doesn't agree, I'll kneel at the gate of the palace and kneel until he agrees." ”

Downing asked, "Are you sure?" ”

Xiao Jue nodded solemnly and said, "I'm sure." ”

Tang Ning asked, "Does Lu Ya know about this matter?" ”

Xiao Jue said: "I haven't had time to tell her yet." ”

……

Tang Ning beckoned to Lu Ya, Lu Ya walked over, looked at him, and wondered, "What's the matter?" ”

"He said he was going to the prairie to make a career." Tang Ning pointed at Xiao Jue, looked at Lu Ya, and said, "You persuade him------ persuade him well." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the air around him suddenly became a little colder.

Tang Ning walked out of the courtyard and closed the courtyard door, ignoring the screams coming from inside.
