Chapter 222: Farewell to Old Man

Gu Du smiled and said, "High Priest, we have known each other for more than ten years, you know that I am a person, I have a straight temperament, and I always say whatever I have. ”

Qiao Zheng nodded with a smile and said: "That's right, although the two countries have signed their credentials now, but the world is changeable, if you start a sword war again in the future, you still have to rely on your uncle to take command of the enemy." ”

Gu Du said: "When it comes to resisting the enemy, I think so, I can't always lead the troops to fight alone, right?" ”

Qiao Zheng didn't know what he was talking about, so he laughed dryly twice and didn't answer.

Gu Du said: "Tomorrow I will resign to the emperor, taking advantage of the current situation, I have to go back to the mountain to retreat, don't hide from you, I am only one step away from the peak." ”

Qiao Zheng's heart jumped suddenly, how old is Gu Ducai, not yet thirty-five, right? Just one step away from the pinnacle? Really?

Gu Du continued: "I came to you today to be alone. ”

Hearing this, Qiao Zheng suddenly understood that it was Feng Jiu who had originally found Gu Du to complain.

Gu Du said again: "Feng Jiu is kind to me, he worked tirelessly to carry back the bones of my wife and children, at that time I was going to go to the Spirit Kingdom to lurk, and he was my guide......

Gu Du paused for a moment, and then said: "I blame me for this matter, I was in the Spirit Kingdom at the time, I didn't think too much about it, I forgot that he was your old spirit servant, and later accepted Gongsun Yan, and the two of them fell in love, plus the situation at the time, Feng Jiu also followed Gongsun Yan to call me Master, this has been called for a long time, and it has become natural to get used to it, so don't blame me." ”

Qiao Zheng replied with a little embarrassment: "Uncle Guo's words are serious, Feng Jiu can be trained by Uncle Guo, which is his blessing." ”

Gu Du smiled and said: "I originally handed them all over to the summer queen for training, but when I came back this time, I found that their growth was not much, my junior sister is not as good as before, I am a mother, and my mind is on the child, so I want to take them all back to the mountain to be trained, do you always see this thing?" ”

Qiao Zheng made Gu Du's face hot, he was sure that Gu Du was clear about everything, but he lowered his status so much to 'discuss' with him, what was this kid thinking?

Qiao Zheng replied with a smile: "But it depends on Uncle Guo's arrangement." ”

Gu Du raised his hand and saluted, "Then thank you and say goodbye." ”

Qiao Zheng was stunned for a moment, Gu Du had already gotten up and walked out, Qiao Zheng hurriedly sent it to the door, Gu Du turned around, and said again: "High priest stay." ”

Seeing Gu Du go away, Qiao Zheng frowned, how ruthless Gu Du was when he killed He Xuzhuo's family, but how could it be like this now? Even if there is no evidence, with his understanding of Gu Du, Gu Du should not have such an attitude.

Qiao Zheng was in a mess in his heart, went back to the house and sat quietly for half an hour, and suddenly reacted, Gu Du refused to take over the Imperial Spirit Division, this is a good opportunity, tomorrow in the court, he will tell the old man to return home in front of Gu Du, and then recommend Ram Tuo to take over.

Thinking of this, Qiao Zheng suddenly understood Gu Du's intentions, he came today for two things, in fact, the most important thing was not to ask for Feng Jiu, because there was no need to go to such great lengths to dispatch a spirit attendant, and the main purpose of Gu Du's coming today was to tell Qiao Zheng that Gu Du refused to take over the Imperial Spirit Division.

Thinking through this, Qiao Zheng instantly understood Gu Du's attitude, Gu Du didn't dare to touch him, the high priest, but didn't want to embarrass Lixia, Gu Du owed this junior sister too much, only if Gu Du stayed away from right and wrong, Lixia could be a queen safely and worry-free.

The biggest difference between Qiao Zheng and He Xuzhuo is that He Xuzhuo directly attacked Lixia, while Qiao Zheng did not involve Lixia.

After Qiao Zheng figured it out, he arranged the frame and entered the palace to meet him.

Emperor Ze was very surprised, he tossed for more than half a year, Qiao Zheng was not shocked, as soon as Gu Du came back, Qiao Zheng came to meet him, and not to meet him, but to meet Li Xia, saying that he wanted to discuss the affairs of the Imperial Spirit Division with Empress Xia.

Emperor Ze can't help it, Li Xia's other identity is the Great Spirit Master, and the most annoying thing is that Emperor Ze has to avoid it.

Because this is a matter of the Imperial Spirit Division, whether or not to play him, the emperor, can only be decided after discussion, if you don't have to play Chen, then you don't need to tell him.

Although he is the emperor, he can't be like a child, anyone has to lean over to listen, which is neither decent nor has such rules.

Qiao Zheng sat down steadily, looked at Li Xia and said: "Queen Xia, the minister is old and wants to abdicate to make way for Xian, I don't know if there is a suitable candidate in Xia Hou's heart?" ”

Li Xia frowned slightly, why did this old man suddenly run to say this, and he told her, could it be that Gu Du went to find him? Forcing him to abdicate?

Rexia shook his head unconsciously, his brother wouldn't do that.

Qiao Zheng waited for a moment, and then said: "It stands to reason that Uncle Gu Du has made great achievements in the war, and he should take over the position of high priest, but the minister secretly thinks that the burden on Uncle Guo's shoulders is too heavy, and although the two countries have signed the letter of state, the world is changeable......"

Li Xia listened to him silently, what he said was exactly the same as what Gu Du said, did Gu Du find him?

"After the summer, the minister thought that Ram Tuo was the most suitable candidate." This is the closing remarks of Qiao Zheng.

Li Xia said without hesitation: "This palace has no objections. ”

Back then, it was Lixia who re-evaluated the spirit master, she was extremely familiar with everyone's abilities, and the ram Tuo was the only one who could touch the black robe with the spirit master back then, and he was down-to-earth and steady, putting aside Gu Du, Ram Tuo was the only candidate to succeed the high priest.

In fact, Li Xia has long been a little slanderous about the Imperial Spirit Division of Zeguo, except for Qiao Zheng, the high priest, the chief priest is Dongfang Buyi, the emperor's uncle, the priest is Qiao Shiqi, Qiao Zheng's adopted son and son-in-law, this is all nepotism.

And when Lixia was assessing, he found that it was okay for Dongfang not to hear it, but Qiao Shiqi was much worse, originally Lixia thought that Qiao Zheng was so tossed for Qiao Shiqi, but he didn't expect that the person he recommended was Ram Tuo.

From this point of view, Qiao Zheng is actually in a public spirit, but because Gu Du is a defector and is too strong, Qiao Zheng is worried about this situation where the ministers are strong and the masters are weak, so he will make trouble.

This is fundamentally different from He Xuzhuo's behavior.

Li Xia replied crisply, Qiao Zheng was stunned, he thought that Li Xia would fight for Gu Du, he had thought of the words before he came, and even planned to confront Gu Du face to face, so that Gu Du himself would not take over the position of high priest.

Looking at his expression, Li Xia could finally be sure that Gu Du had looked for him, and he must have told him in person that he refused to take over the Imperial Spirit Division, so Qiao Zheng was in a hurry to finalize the successor.

Li Xia said: "High Priest, in fact, you don't need to be so anxious, although Ram Tuo is the most suitable candidate other than my brother, but after all, he has no experience, and this palace thinks that you should take him first." ”
