Chapter 355: Return to the Northwest
"Dingjun City won't really be lost, right?" Gao Tian hurriedly asked Xia in the mirror.
Dingjun City is the front line of the northwest to resist the Huhe grassland, and it is also the last line of defense in the northwest. Once the Dingjun City is lost, then the entire northwest will be trampled by the nomads on the Huhe grassland. Moreover, once the northwest is lost, it will not be far from the Hohe grassland to the south of the Central Plains.
"Of course not, the people on the Huhe grassland have been defeated by us, where can they still have this ability to commit crimes. This is just a play performed by several tribes we have subdued, and it is specially played for those plum blossom guards. Summer said cheerfully, with a bright look in her eyes.
"That's good, but be careful, don't be found by those old foxes on the Huhe grassland." Gao Tian breathed a sigh of relief, but still did not forget to say vigilantly.
"Don't worry, I've ordered the Bloodcoat Guards to keep them firmly in the spotlight, even when they're on the toilet." Summer said confidently.
"By the way, I forgot to tell you, we almost have to fight Wu Zetian. If this news hadn't come in time, I'm afraid we would have completely torn our faces with Wu Zetian at this time. "Summer's eyes narrowed, and two cold rays of light shot out.
"What the hell is going on?" Gao Tian's expression also became solemn.
Summer told Gao Tian what happened in the Vientiane Shrine yesterday, and the level of detail was almost as detailed as if Summer himself was present at the time. From this it can be seen that the intelligence work in the summer was quite good and extremely efficient, almost sensational.
"It seems that we still underestimate this first female emperor in the ages! If it weren't for the reason of settling down, we would have started in advance, I'm afraid the best situation now would be to escape from the Shendu and then get involved with the imperial court. In that case, we will have to go back a lot longer. Gao Tian frowned and said with a sigh.
"Yes! What a pity! But as long as we unify this dream world, then your second purple dragon luck should be able to turn virtual into reality. Iron is not for us, luck is too important. If you're not lucky, that person might notice your situation in the next moment. Summer also sighed.
This is also one of the important purposes of their trip to the high heavens, and it is not even under the law of cultivating the heart.
"More than that! Our situation is different from that of the Twelve Princes, they rely on their superior strength to dominate, so luck only plays a supporting role. And if we want to take advantage of the group, then luck is very important for us. Whether it's escaping the enemy's psychic senses or forming an army of monks, it's likely to take a lot of luck. If you don't have enough luck, it's hard to say. Gao Tian felt that his head was big.
"Moreover, according to our thinking, the army needs luck to develop, and it needs an endless stream of luck to maintain." Summer interface.
The two looked at each other and felt very bitter.
………………
"Wan'er, what do you say now?" Wu Zetian closed his eyes, his mind was still full of the quarrel in the previous meeting, and said with a big headache.
A figure flashed in Shangguan Wan'er's heart, and then disappeared again. She settled down and said euphemistically: "The northwest cannot be lost." ”
"Yes, the Northwest must not be lost. Otherwise, the current imperial court would definitely not be able to resist attacks from three sides. Wu Zetian seemed to have a plan in his heart, and sighed with some disappointment.
Shangguan Wan'er didn't speak, she knew that Wu Zetian was just talking to herself, and she didn't mean to ask. As the first female emperor unprecedented in the ages, how could she not have the courage to be arbitrary.
"Chuan Ping Guogong." Wu Zetian waved his sleeves, exuding a powerful momentum on his body and said.
"No." Shangguan Wan'er bent down to receive the order.
………………
In the Vientiane Divine Palace, there were only two people, Wu Zetian and Gao Tian, and even Shangguan Wan'er was not waiting on the side.
This is extremely rare, even the first time in Wu Zetian's history. Wu Zetian and Gao Tian looked at each other for a long time, neither of them spoke, as if they were comparing each other's patience. Without the presence of outsiders, their contradictions have not been concealed in the slightest.
"Tell me, what conditions do you want?" Wu Zetian finally spoke first.
"I will take away the Shenhou Mansion, and I will also take Shangguan Wan'er and the female officials under her command." Gao Tian was not polite either, and said bluntly.
"It's okay to say that Wan'er is absolutely impossible." Wu Zetian flatly refused.
"Don't be busy refusing first, I didn't take them away unconditionally, there was an exchange." Gao Tian said unhurriedly.
"On what terms?" As a politician, nothing cannot be exchanged. Wu Zetian did a very good job of this.
"I searched An's house, but I haven't had time to transport the things yet. As long as you give me Shangguan Wan'er and the female officials under her command, then those things will be yours. Gao Tian opened his mouth and said.
Sure enough, Wu Zetian became excited, and hurriedly said, "Where is the thing?" ”
Don't think that the imperial court is not short of money, in fact, the imperial court is even more lacking. Although the court is not poor, most of the money and materials are in the aristocratic families, and it is impossible for the current Wu Zetian to attack these loyal backbones who support her to ascend the throne, which will cause chaos in the court.
Therefore, in addition to the northwest, in fact, the imperial court is the most short of money. Recently, Wu Zetian has almost lost his head because of money. And Shangguan Wan'er is deeply favored by her, but it is not indispensable.
"My majesty, you don't think that Shangguan Wan'er and the female officials under her command alone can make up for so much wealth, do you?" Gao Tian said sarcastically.
"And what else do you need?" Wu Zetian also calmed down.
"I don't need anything, I just want to make a bet with Your Majesty." The corners of Gao Tian's mouth curled slightly.
"What bet?" Wu Zetian asked calmly.
"Just bet on this batch of rich people who rival the wealth of the country. I will not take the wealth of this rich country and bury it near the Divine Capital. As for the specific location, it is up to His Majesty to find it himself. But before that, I will take the people of the Shenhou Mansion and Shangguan Wan'er and the female officials under her command with me. Gao Tian said categorically.
"Okay." Although Wu Zetian is a woman, her courage and mind are far better than men. She didn't hesitate for a moment, and immediately decided.
"Happy, Your Majesty is really still so decisive in killing, just like when he expelled me from the gods." Gao Tian clapped his hands and said, his mouth still couldn't help but mock.
"It's all for the people of the world, you think too much about blood handsome!" Wu Zetian's expression was as usual, and he was not moved at all.
"Haha, since that's the case, Weichen will return to the northwest, and Your Majesty doesn't need to send it." Gao Tian laughed and turned away without hesitation.
Wu Zetian looked at Gao Tian's distant back calmly, and the original golden chair handle under his palm was slightly deformed.
