Chapter 41: The Cause

Previous Chapter

Hearing this, Cao Zheng slowly retreated, asking Zuo Xiang to come over, while he stood outside the hall and waited.

A moment later, an old figure appeared outside Jiuhua Palace, it was Situ Wen, the left minister.

"Your Majesty, I heard that Lord Jugyuan Xing came just now?"

Situ Wen said hurriedly, just outside the Jiuhua Palace, he had already communicated with Cao Zheng, knew about the arrival of the Mu Yuan Star Lord, and also knew that Ling Xuan was taken away by a mysterious person.

Situ Wen knew the news of Wang Xian's presence on the border of Liang State three days ago, originally he thought that it was Wang Xian who went to the imperial capital to assassinate Su Sheng and the others, and no one found out because of his cultivation in the previous realm, but he didn't expect that the assassin in the imperial capital was not Wang Xian.

"Zuo Xiang, look at this piece of Fenghua Xueyue Order, but the piece that my father handed over to Wang Xian back then. ”

Ling Yang handed the purple gold token in his hand to Situ Wen, the Wind Flower Snow Moon Order was created by the Yin Yang Temple, each piece was slightly different, of course, only a very few people knew about this matter.

At that time, the descendants of the Shen family were handed over to Wang Xian to take care of, and the royal family felt deeply guilty about the destruction of the Shen family.

After Situ Wen took the token, he checked it repeatedly, and after a long time, he said respectfully, "Your Majesty, this token is indeed the Fenghua Xueyue Order of my Ling Kingdom back then, and it was given to Wang Xian by the first emperor. ”

"However, now that all the things that are happening in the imperial capital indicate that the assassin's cultivation has reached the pre-convergence realm, and Wang Xianyou has appeared in the territory of the Liang Kingdom, who are the people from this imperial capital?

Ling Yang's heart was filled with deep doubts, and he became more and more unable to see through what was happening in the imperial capital.

"Your Majesty, the background of the family is the most difficult to guess, perhaps the head of the Shen family transferred the resources of the Shen family in advance in order to prevent changes in the Shen family, and now the descendants of the Shen family rely on these resources, coupled with Wang Xian's teachings, to reach the future realm, it is not impossible. ”

Situ Wen seemed to see Ling Yang's doubts, and comforted him, originally he thought that he had seen the affairs of the imperial capital very thoroughly, but now the imperial emperor was also a little confused.

"Your Majesty, now that Your Highness is missing, I don't know how we should deal with it. Situ Wen said respectfully.

"What is the best plan for Lord Zuo. Ling Yang asked, he knew that when Situ Wen said this, he already had a way, otherwise he would not have said it.

"The old minister thinks that the imperial capital and the surrounding 100 miles of territory should be blocked immediately, so that the mysterious people who took away His Highness will not dare to do anything unfavorable to His Highness. ”

......

"You're awake!" the middle-aged man in white looked at the young man who sat up from the bed.

"What did you do to arrest this king, and what has happened to your lord?"

Ling Xuan said coldly, for the middle-aged man in white in front of him, Ling Xuan couldn't guess his purpose, but since the middle-aged man in white didn't kill him, then Ling Xuan believed that the other party was not trying to take his own life.

Ling Xuan looked at the cave in front of him, knowing that this should be the place where he had been hiding for days, and now he should not be able to escape, and his mood was relaxed, and he called himself this king, so that the middle-aged man in white would not forget his identity, the prince of Ling State, the prince of a country.

"I brought you here to ask you a question!" The middle-aged man in white had hazy eyes, and he didn't know what he remembered, and his eyes were a little moist.

Ling Xuan was willing to hear about it. Ling Xuan sat up from the bed and walked to the stone table and sat down.

"I want to know why you're dealing with the Five Great Families, and what's in it for you?"

The white-clothed middle-aged man's gaze suddenly became sharp, like an open sword, making it impossible for people to look directly, but Ling Xuan was also very human, and his expression adapted to his gaze in the blink of an eye.

"Why do you deal with the Five Great Families?" Ling Xuan muttered to himself, he originally dealt with the Five Great Families because of the family's assassination of him, Ling Xuan has always had a character of revenge, since the Five Great Families offended him, then don't blame him for being ruthless.

But later, his purpose of dealing with the five great families had changed, and the matter of Wu Yi's reward six years ago was deeply imprinted on Ling Xuan's heart.

The five great families firmly control the passage for the rise of Lingguo officials, and only the royal forces can confront them, and the scholars of the poor family want to join the officialdom, either join the family, become a guest, or take refuge in the royal family, but the royal family also has to deal with the pressure of the countries, and it is a little powerless for the family.

Ling Xuan fell into deep thought, and the cave was quiet again, while the middle-aged man in white didn't seem to be in a hurry, poured a cup of tea, and drank it to himself.

Finally, after a long time, Ling Xuan's clear voice sounded.

"Because of the existence of the five great families, it has hindered the path of Ling Guo's Hanmen scholars to become officials, and it has become a stumbling block to the unification of the Chinese world. ”

"100,000 years ago, the human race was only 10 million, but the ancestor of the gods unified the Chinese realm and established the god dynasty, and after 90,000 years of development, the human race has tens of billions. ”

"But in the past 10,000 years, there have been constant disputes in the Chinese realm, and in the battle of the Nine Kingdoms 40 years ago, my Ling country has suffered nearly 10 million casualties, not to mention the number of casualties in the country, as well as the deaths and injuries of the human race in the Chinese realm in the past 10,000 years. ”

"Only when the Chinese realm is unified again and the Divine Dynasty is re-established in the world can this chaotic strife that has lasted for 10,000 years be stopped. ”

Ling Xuan's words were loud, making the middle-aged man in white frown, but Ling Xuan ignored the expression of the middle-aged man in white, and said directly.

"This king also wants to ask you a question, I wonder if you are willing?"
