The thousand-year-old birthday of the Beast Domain Emperor is afraid that it is the most aggrieved birthday he has ever lived, and he thought that he could use a knife to kill a person The hegemony of the Taigu Panlong Clan in the Beast Domain, but he never expected that in the end, he would lift a stone and shoot himself in the foot, and the core character of the whole thing, Qiu Lone, was even more playing with fire**, not only failed to take the opportunity to take the position, but also ended up with a tragic end in a different place. Soldiers make dangerous moves, and the difference is thousands of miles, and success or failure is often hidden in a blink of an eye.

Although Qiu Lao is a general of the Beast Domain and can be regarded as a figure who has seen the world, compared to Lu Yifan, who has experienced countless winds and waves, ups and downs in the Five Domains, he is still a bad move after all.

After Qiu Cheng returned to the palace from the Panlong enclosure, he couldn't afford to be sick because of the urgency, and all the size of the court was handed over to Qiu Shaocang for disposal, and he told him to put the overall situation first, and no one could mention Qiu Lonely's death again.

And on the third day after Qiu Yan's birthday, Qiu Shaocang, who was exhausted in the court, received three secret letters in a row. The first letter was sent by the Qilin clan, inviting Qiu Shaocang to go to Qilin City to attend the enthronement ceremony of the new patriarch of the Qilin clan. The second letter was sent by the Phoenix Clan, and the Phoenix Patriarch invited Qiu Shaocang to go to the Rakshasa Gate together to participate in the enthronement ceremony of the Beast Domain Sect Master with the major families of the Beast Domain. The third letter was sent by the Qi Family Chamber of Commerce, and Yulou's handwritten letter invited Qiu Shaocang to go to the Jiuzhong Building to talk about it.

After hesitating, Qiu Shaocang decided to go to the Nine-Story Building to make an appointment with the Jade Tower. Because today's Taigu Panlong, whether it is close to the Phoenix Clan or the Qilin Clan, in the final analysis, it is a palliative rather than a curative delaying strategy, and only an open and honest showdown with Lu Yifan is the way to preserve the current situation. In order to avoid extraneous branches, Qiu Shaocang only brought Qiu Han with him on this trip. On the evening of the fourth day of the second lunar month, Qiu Shaocang and Qiu Han quietly left the palace in disguise, and went straight to the most prosperous place in the east of Panlong City, the nine-story building.

The nine-story building is the largest in Panlong City, and it is also the most luxurious restaurant in the city. There are delicious delicacies from all over the Five Domains, singing and dancing enchantresses from all regions, and entering the Nine-Story Building to indulge in extravagance once will cost thousands of silver shells, which is why the Nine-Story Building has also become a forbidden place for the general public in Panlong City, a paradise for the powerful and rich. And more importantly, the owner behind the nine-story building is the Qi Family Chamber of Commerce. At the same time, the nine-story building is also a good place for the Qi Family Chamber of Commerce and the Beast Domain magnates to get through contacts and build relationships.

Outside the nine-story building, the people who come and go are all the magnates in the city, one by one wearing gold and silver, one by one, wearing gold and silver, and getting off the carriage under the entourage and guards, and then they are surrounded by countless glamorous ladies and nodding guys who come out of the nine-story building, and the sound of flattery is endless for a while, and these big men will be proud to spend gold like earth at this moment, and the entourage that follows behind between the waves of his hand is to spill a lot of gold and silver shells to those ****** and the guys of the nine-story building, and then the big men will hug left and right and walk into the nine-story building with a shy stomach under the stars and the moon, looking at this posture is simply more happy than the gods.

"I didn't expect that there would be such a demagogic place in my Panlong City. Qiu Shaocang stood outside the nine-story building, staring gloomily at the endless crowd, and shouted angrily, "Nine-story building, nine-story building! I think it's a building that destroys people and burns money, you look at those people, which one of them doesn't look like a high-sounding and righteous speech in the court on weekdays? But now? How can they all take His Majesty's money and go to such a place to spend their days drinking?" Qiu Shaocang is busy with government affairs on weekdays and rarely walks around the market, so although a place like Jiuzhonglou has been standing in Panlong City for many years, it is still very unfamiliar to Qiu Shaocang.

"My lord, this nine-story building is the most profitable business in Panlong City, and it is said that the daily flow of water in the nine-story building is enough to have millions of silver shells. Qiu Han replied in a low voice, "And as far as I know, the ten ** ministers of the DPRK and China are all ...... They are all frequent visitors to this nine-story building...... Many of them are not spending money in the nine-story building, but ...... Collect money ......"

"There is such a thing?" Qiu Shaocang never expected that the Beast Domain Imperial Hall had reached such an outrageous level now, his face trembled with anger, and he asked in a cold voice, "Who is the shopkeeper of the Nine-Story Building? ”

"Qi Family Chamber of Commerce. Qiu Han hesitated for a moment before replying bitterly.

"Qi Family Chamber of Commerce?" Qiu Shaocang was stunned when he heard this, and said in surprise, "But the Qi Family Chamber of Commerce of Qi Yulou's family?"

"Yes. ”

"That's weird. Qiu Shaocang muttered to himself in confusion, "Qi Yulou dares to ask me to meet here, isn't he afraid that the old man will investigate and deal with this nine-story building?"

Before Qiu Han could take a stubble, two smiling men and a woman who looked like an old bustard came out of the nine-story building, and the three of them went straight to Qiu Han and Qiu Shaocang, and the woman said with a smile: "Isn't this Uncle Han......?"

Hearing the woman's words, Qiu Han couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground at the moment, and his cheeks were already red with his head down. Qiu Shaocang on the side looked at Qiu Han with a sudden understanding, and nodded again and again: "I still wonder how you are so familiar with the Nine-Story Building, it turns out that you are also a frequent visitor here." ”

"My ......, my lord"

"Hmph, if you have anything to say, I'll explain it to the old man when I go back!" Qiu Shaocang snorted coldly, and then without waiting for Qiu Han to open his mouth again to beg for mercy, Qiu Shaocang had already taken two steps forward with his sleeves up, and asked the woman, "You are the master of this nine-story building?"

"There is no master in the nine-story building, they are all subordinates who serve your masters. The woman was also well-informed, and she could see at a glance that Qiu Shaocang's identity was not bad, so she complimented with a smile, "This master looks very angry, I'm afraid it's the first time I've come to our Nine-Story Building, right?"

"So what?" Qiu Shaocang snorted coldly.

"Nothing to do, everyone who comes is a guest, and all the uncles who come to my nine-story building are our distinguished guests for the first time or the second time. The woman saw that Qiu Shaocang's tone was not good, so she hurriedly laughed and said, "What's more, the uncle is still the person brought by Uncle Han, so it's better to let the little woman be the boss today and wait for the uncle to enter the building for casual pastime." ”

I have to say that the woman does know how to behave, she knows that Qiu Han's identity is the commander of the city army of Panlong City and the royal family, which can be described as a high power, but he still behaves respectfully and submissively in front of Qiu Shaocang, so she expected that Qiu Shaocang's status must be much higher than Qiu Han, so she took the initiative to invite Qiu Shaocang to a banquet, wanting to please Qiu Shaocang. If this matter were someone else, I am afraid that I would have been moved by this woman's enthusiasm and Taoism, but who is Qiu Shaocang? He is the most relied on minister of the Beast Domain Emperor, how can he be bought by this little favor tonight, I saw him wave his big hand, and said coldly: "No need, the old man came here today to find someone, and he asked me to meet here." ”

"Look at what this uncle said, who is not looking for someone here?" the woman laughed coquettishly with a hippie smile, "I don't know if the uncle is looking for white skin and beautiful skin, or if he wants to find a willow-waisted and thin-legged ......."

"I'm looking for Qi Yulou!" Before the woman finished speaking, Qiu Shaocang waved his hands impatiently and shouted, "Can you tell me that Qi Yulou is white and beautiful?"

As soon as they heard the words "Qi Yulou", the woman and the guy who were still smiling immediately changed their faces, and then the two hurriedly put away their playful looks, and replaced them with a thick solemnity. The woman took a step forward and asked in a low voice, "Your Excellency is the guest invited by the prince of the Jade Building?"

"Nonsense, where is Qi Yulou?" Seeing this, Qiu Han hurriedly stepped forward and asked sharply, "Hurry up and let him come out to meet our adults." ”

"Please forgive me for being too neglectful just now, please come with me!" The woman at this moment and just now are like two people, just now they are delicate and soft-spoken, and at this moment they are talking solemnly and behaved generously.

After that, the woman personally led Qiu Shaocang and Qiu Han towards the nine-story building, and on the way, there were several encounters with the men and ****** of the nine-story building who wanted to meet them, but they were all waved away by the woman. The group of three went straight up the stairs and walked briskly upstairs, the more they went up, the cleaner it became, and they reached the ninth floor in a row, which was very different from the noise below. There were a number of private rooms on the ninth floor, but tonight there was only one private room with beaded curtains hanging from the entire ninth floor, and there was a figure swaying.

"Childe, the person you invited has arrived. The woman stood outside the door of the private room and whispered respectfully.

"Please come in!" Yulou's voice came from the private room, and when the woman heard this, she hurriedly reached out and opened the bead curtain to let Qiu Shaocang and Qiu Han in, and she turned around and walked downstairs quickly and softly.

At this moment, a mouth-watering table of fine wine has been arranged in the private room, and Yulou, dressed in a white robe, is sitting behind the round table with a smile on his face, and behind him stands a row of delicate beauties with national colors and fragrances. Qi Dalong, the head of the North Beast Academy of the Qi Family Chamber of Commerce, was sitting beside Yulou at this moment, looking cautiously at Qiu Shaocang and Qiu Han, who were belated.

"Master Qiu!" As soon as Yulou saw Qiu Shaocang, he took the initiative to get up and greeted him, "Last time, Yulou hurriedly withdrew from the table in the Panlong Enclosure, and failed to say goodbye to His Majesty the Emperor and Lord Qiu in person, and I hope to forgive my sins." ”

"Since you didn't say goodbye that day, why bother acting today?" Qiu Shaocang didn't seem to appreciate it, but he turned a deaf ear in the face of Yulou's bow, and went straight around Yulou and walked directly to the table and sat down, while Qiu Han, who was following behind, also hurriedly walked behind Qiu Shaocang and stood still after taking a look at Yulou and Qi Dalong.

Regarding Qiu Shaocang's attitude, Qi Dalong was angry, but Yulou smiled disapprovingly, turned around and walked back to the chief to sit down, and then waved his hand to the group of ****** behind him, and said with a smile: "Don't serve the two adults well." ”

"No need!" Qiu Shaocang waved his hand bluntly, "The purpose of the old man's coming here today is not for recreation, so the prince of Yulou doesn't have to be so polite." The old man likes to get straight to the point, and he also asks the prince of Yulou to invite Sect Master Lu out!"

"Sect Master Lu is not in Panlong City at all, why did Lord Qiu say this?" Yulou asked with a pretense of confusion.

"Yulou Gongzi, you and I are both understanding people, so why pretend to be confused?" Qiu Shaocang retorted dissatisfiedly, "If Yulou Gongzi can't be open and honest today, then please forgive the old man for saying goodbye first!"

Yulou first waved his hand to stop Qi Dalong from getting up to dissuade him, and then watched with a smile as Qiu Shaocang dragged Qiu Han all the way out of the door, although Qiu Shaocang and Qiu Han never looked back, but Yulou could still see a trace of hesitation from Qiu Shaocang's slower and slower pace, Yulou immediately smiled, and took the lead in speaking before Qiu Shaocang wanted to step out of the threshold: "Master Qiu, wait a minute! I was rude just now, and I ask Lord Qiu to atone for his sins!"

Hearing Yulou's words, Qiu Shaocang's hanging heart suddenly let go, in fact, he didn't want to leave just like this in his heart, after all, if he wanted to find Lu Yifan close in the future, it would be as difficult as climbing to the sky. Qiu Shaocang pretended to be angry and turned to look at the Jade Tower, and asked: "Ming people don't say dark words, this time Qiu Lonely was planted in the hands of Sect Master Lu because he was careless in the world, careless and underestimated the enemy, and couldn't complain about others." Although Qiu Shaocang's tone was tough, the meaning of his words was to clearly give in to Yulou.

"Since it's the Ming people who don't say secret words, then why is Master Qiu still only willing to say half of it?" Yulou said with a smile, "This time, what is Qiu Lone who is planted in the hands of Sect Master Lu? It should be the entire Taigupan Dragon Clan." In my humble opinion, it doesn't matter much if General Qiu Lao lost one person in the Panlong enclosure this time, but all the ninety-nine Tsing Yi guards carefully cultivated by Taigu Panlong died, which is a bit ...... The gains outweigh the losses. ”

"Bang!"

Yulou's words poked Qiu Shaocang's weakness, Qiu Shaocang couldn't help but slam his fist on the table, although he didn't speak, Tie Qing's face had already said everything.

"You guys go out first!" Yulou instructed Qi Dalong, who cautiously glanced at Qiu Shaocang and Qiu Han, and then beckoned a group of ****** to come out. Seeing this, Qiu Shaocang also turned his head to Qiu Han and said, "You also go out and wait for me!"

"But ......"

"Get out!" Qiu Shaocang didn't give Qiu Han a chance to explain, and made Qiu Han obediently retreat with a cold drink.

There were only two people left in the private room, Yulou and Qiu Shaocang, Yulou smiled: "I can't hide it, every word I said today is the meaning of Sect Master Lu, and everything I promise is also what Sect Master Lu will promise." ”

"The old man is also here today on behalf of His Majesty the Emperor, and I mean the same as His Majesty's meaning. Of course, Qiu Shaocang knew what Yulou meant, so he said bluntly, "Just say what you want, don't hide it." This time, it was indeed Qiu Lone who proposed to use Sect Master Lu to eradicate Ling Tian, so he would strive to sit on the throne of the Beast Domain Sect Master, so that my Taigu Pan Dragon Clan would take charge of the civil and military power of the Beast Domain in one fell swoop. This matter is related to the thousand-year-old plan of my Taigupan Dragon Clan, so His Majesty the Emperor and the old man have never objected. ”

"If you want to emulate the martial arts of the Spirit Clan's Mu family to unify the Spirit Domain, its Heart Lu Sect Master can understand and understand. Yulou nodded and said, "It's just that even the Mu family, since the death of Mu Ziyang's predecessor Immortal, has changed the situation of once dominating the world, and now the leader of the Spirit Domain is Xiao Hongfei of the Three Holy Mountains, he and the Mu family can be said to be separated from morality and opposed everywhere." In this comparison, today's spiritual realm is not as good as the beast realm when the emperor and the sect leader lived in harmony. There are pros and cons to everything, greed is not enough to swallow elephants, and it may not be a good thing for the ancient Panlong to become the only overlord of the beast domain. Don't forget the Qilin Clan and the Phoenix Clan, which are both Divine Beast Families, they won't be convinced if they're the first ones. Even if there is no Lonely Lingtian, there will still be Feng Yan Ming who will stand up and seize power, and at that time, in order to balance the Qilin Clan, I am afraid that they will support Feng Yan Ming, and they will not support Qiu Lonely. There are so many talents in the Taigu Panlong Clan, why can't they even figure out such a simple truth?"

"Yulou Gongzi, what is the Taigu Panlong Clan doing, I don't think the old man needs to explain to you here. Qiu Shaocang said coldly, "The old man came here tonight just to know what Sect Master Lu plans for my Taigu Panlong clan in the future? But I want to take the opportunity to join Feng Yanming and them to retaliate? If this is the case, then even if I am the last person to fight to the last person, I will never let you do anything in the Beast Domain, even if we don't have Qiu Lao and Tsing Yi Wei, but don't forget that Your Majesty still has hundreds of thousands of Beast Domain troops in your hands, and those are loyal people who are willing to follow Your Majesty from birth to death." ”

"Lord Qiu's words are wrong. Yulou smiled and shook his head, "You and I are gathered here tonight not because Sect Master Lu wants to do something to your Taigu Pan Dragon Clan, but because I want to know what your Taigu Pan Dragon Clan plans for your future?"

"What do you mean?" Qiu Shaocang frowned and asked rhetorically, "Please forgive the old man for being stupid and not understanding the words of the Jade Mansion Prince." ”

"What I mean is that Sect Master Lu is not an enemy of the Taigu Panlong Clan, he was not, he is not, and he will not be in the future. Yulou said solemnly, "Didn't I already say it just now, although Qiu Lao had taken advantage of Sect Master Lu's fault, but Sect Master Lu was well aware of the righteousness, and he could understand and understand why the Taigu Panlong Clan would do this, so he would never delve into this matter, let alone wait for an opportunity to retaliate." ”

Qiu Shaocang was taken aback when he heard this, his expression between his eyebrows was extremely complicated, and he thought about it for a long time before he asked, "What do you mean...... Sect Master Lu won't take the opportunity to embarrass us?"

"Of course not!" Yulou nodded and said, "Sect Master Lu really wanted to make friends with General Qiu Lao at the beginning, but unfortunately General Qiu Lao's bad heart chilled Sect Master Lu's heart, Sect Master Lu never took the initiative to violate, everything was forced by Qiu Lao to fight back and protect himself." ”

"If Sect Master Lu can really think like this, then ...... The old man thanked His Majesty in advance...... "Qiu Shaocang heard this, and suddenly put down a big stone in his heart, these **** were panicked all day long, and what he was most afraid of was that Lu Yifan would target the Taigupan Dragon Clan, which was now in danger, and now when he heard Yulou's words, the worries in his heart suddenly dissipated a lot.

"It's just ......" Yulou's words changed suddenly, and in an instant, Qiu Shaocang's heart was lifted again, and Yulou's eyes were like knives and said faintly, "It's just that although Sect Master Lu won't do anything to the Taigupan Dragon Clan, there is someone who can't help but be impatient with the declining Taigupan Dragon Clan." If you Taigu Panlong Clan want to unify the Beast Domain, civil and military, and achieve hegemony, why don't others want to?"

"I don't know who this person is that Yulou Gongzi is talking about?"

"Today's Beast Domain Sect Master, Wind and Flame!"

......
