180. Friends become enemies
Zhu Hemen implored Chang'an to send troops, take Qingyue County, and drive away the forces of the Eastern Tang Dynasty.
It is true that they took the initiative to serve Chang'an, but if it happens, then Zhu Heguan will be at least in Qingyue County, and there is hope for further progress.
It's just that if Zhu Heguan knew that Forget the Truth had already surrendered to Chang'an City, I don't know what kind of expression they would have......
"The matter of Zhu Heguan is handed over to you to deal with. Mr. Wuyun commanded indifferently.
Hu Yinghua was slightly stunned: "Sir, you still need to get a charter, Chang'an is currently facing the use of troops, if you set foot in Qingyue County, you may be attacked on both sides." ”
Mr. Dark Cloud looked calm: "And then?"
"Then ......" Hu Yinghua was stunned again and came to his senses: "I understand that the Eastern Tang Dynasty and the Northern Qi Dynasty are joining forces, so how can they be compared with Chang'an? ”
Mr. Wuyun waved his hand, and Hu Yinghua stepped back.
Zhang Dongyun is so arrogant, not because he really didn't take Dongtang seriously.
To be honest, under the condition that Shen Herong and Ao Kong try to keep a low profile and not show up, the current masters in the city are still under some pressure to deal with both the Northern Qi and the Eastern Tang Dynasty at the same time.
Even if the King of Qi and the King of Tang did not go out in person, the two dynasties also had many masters of the Eighth Realm, and their strength was strong.
The reason why Zhang Dongyun didn't care about taking Qingyue County was that there was a concept of forgetting the truth as an internal response, and this internal response was greater than that of Zhuheguan.
The second is that he roughly guessed a little bit of Tang Wang's thoughts.
The other party probably wanted to take Yang Li first, and felt that compared to Chang'an City, Yang Li was a soft persimmon.
Of course, this is also true.
And Tang Wang pinned his hopes on Yang Li to understand the details of Chang'an and find a way to conquer Chang'an.
On this basis, the Eastern Tang Dynasty will first concentrate its forces and round up Yang Li.
On the Chang'an side, they will make forbearance for the time being, in order to win the next blow.
Chang'an now swallows Qingyue County and will not be subjected to too strong resistance from the Eastern Tang Dynasty.
Hu Yinghua can let it go.
After winning the Forgetfulness Concept, the Dust Daoist and other masters of the Forgetfulness Concept can also return to Chang'an openly, and they no longer have to act in secret.
As for saying that the Eastern Tang Dynasty may be false, it is real, and it is false, using Yang Li as a cover, in fact, the goal is to raid Chang'an......
City Lord Zhang is fully welcome.
Of course, from another point of view, he hoped that Dongtang would still focus more on hunting down Yang Li, so that he could be behind.
In the Daming Palace, Zhang Dongyun slowly exhaled, calmed down, and continued his cultivation.
With the help of Xuan Yuanguo, save him some time, and the seventh realm is already close at hand.
............
Compared with the Northern Qi and Eastern Tang Dynasty, the current domestic situation of the Western Zhou Dynasty in the west is much more relaxed.
However, at the moment, it is loose on the outside and tight on the inside.
The situation of the neighboring countries aroused the vigilance of the monarchs and ministers of the Western Zhou Dynasty.
Originally, taking advantage of Chang'an City to attract the attention of the Eastern Tang Dynasty, the Western Zhou army invaded the border and attacked the Eastern Tang Dynasty.
However, as Chang'an City became stronger and stronger, and also crossed the border to the Northern Qi Dynasty and destroyed the Ice and Fire Valley, the Western Zhou's attack on the Eastern Tang Dynasty gradually slowed down.
Although it looks fierce on the surface, there is thunder and little rain inside.
Zhou Jun and Tang Jun have some meaning of tacit understanding boxing and Taiping boxing.
There will be such a reaction, it is really the momentum of the development of Chang'an City, too rapid.
It has exceeded the tone of the Western Zhou Dynasty and the bottom line of mental safety.
Chang'an and the Western Zhou Dynasty still had close contacts and were kind.
But Hexi County is close to the territory of the Western Zhou Dynasty, and on the side of the couch, how can others be allowed to sleep soundly?
The encounter between the Valley of Ice and Fire and the Northern Qi Dynasty made the Western Zhou Dynasty even more vigilant.
At present, the two sides are friends rather than enemies, and there are often business and trade exchanges, and the Western Zhou Dynasty did not unite with the Northern Qi and Eastern Tang Dynasty to blockade and encircle Chang'an.
But they were on their guard, and they were on the right to prevent trouble.
Hexi County under the rule of Chang'an, Tiexi County of the Western Zhou Dynasty, which is only separated by a Tielun Mountains, has a large number of Zhou troops and masters of the Western Zhou royal family, who are always on guard.
Even, some famous factions in the Western Zhou Dynasty also sent masters to Tiexi County to prevent Chang'an from suddenly making a move like attacking the Northern Qi Ice and Fire Valley.
The Chang'an side seems to be unaware of this, and it looks normal.
But the monarchs and ministers of the Western Zhou Dynasty did not dare to relax because of this.
"The master wants to spread the Dharma to the east, and I am naturally willing to support it. ”
In the palace of the Western Zhou Dynasty, the king of Zhou set up a vegetarian feast and entertained two monks.
The monks are old and young, the old monk looks peaceful, and the treasure is solemn.
The little monk is handsome and cute, with a pair of big eyes turning around, and his eyes sweeping the many delicacies on the feast.
"The king's words are serious, this is the old man's lifelong wish. ”
The old monk clasped his palms together: "If it is really as you said, Chang'an admires Buddhism and cannot do it, and even suffers from false rumors, and the old man is even more responsible for this trip." ”
King Zhou smiled: "You have no jokes. ”
The old monk nodded: "The old man just lost his words, and I ask the king to forgive me." ”
His words were polite, but his voice was calm, neither humble nor arrogant.
King Zhou's attitude towards the old monk was not dissatisfied, and he raised the wine bottle: "The master doesn't drink, you can do it yourself, I have this cup, respect the master, respect the Buddha." ”
"Thank you. The old monk bowed his head.
The other Western Zhou courtiers who accompanied him during the banquet raised their glasses with King Zhou.
The little monk followed the example of the old monk and clasped his palms together for eleven salutes.
Then, after everyone put down the wine bottle, the little monk cheered silently, and then began to move the chopsticks and eat non-stop.
The monarchs and ministers of the Western Zhou Dynasty seemed to be accustomed to this, and they all smiled and watched him keep his chopsticks.
The old monk glanced at him, and there seemed to be a slight helplessness in the depths of his eyes, but he didn't reproach out loud.
After the feast was over, the master and apprentice resigned to the Western Zhou.
King Zhou specially arranged a special person to escort them all the way east to the Chang'an territory.
"Your Majesty, can these two masters and apprentices play a role in restraining Chang'an's energy?" someone asked softly beside King Zhou.
While returning to the palace, the king of Zhou said: "They came from the west, they have a deep background, and they stayed on the ground of my Great Zhou, and they did no good.
Now send them to Chang'an, and Chang'an will greet them, and I will benefit from it without harm.
It doesn't matter how much splash they can make in Chang'an, if Chang'an cleans up these two monks, it will be the best. ”
"Wechen understood, the king was far-sighted. The subordinate beside him hurriedly said: "Weichen will order someone to pay attention to the movements on the ground under Chang'an's rule, see what the final result of this pair of masters and apprentices is, and if there is any mistake, immediately try to contact their fellow disciples." ”
"Go ahead. ”
King Zhou nodded, stopped suddenly, and looked in the direction of Chang'an in the east, his eyes were deep.
............
The rapid development and rise of Chang'an may cause uneasiness among the surrounding forces, which Zhang Dongyun expected.
However, he didn't pay much attention to this, and even hoped that more would be better.
However, some news recently collected by Tianxian Hall shows that Chang'an seems to have more friends in addition to adding enemies.
However, at the moment it can only be called seeming.
"Are you saying that in the territory currently notified by the Eastern Tang Dynasty, there are also horse farms that have been poisoned, and some places where domesticated spirit beasts are also targeted?"
Mr. Dark Cloud didn't lift his eyelids.
The Blood Shadow Old Demon, who was sitting opposite him, was also expressionless: "It's hard to say who is coming and who is instructed." ”
"And what are you doing here?" said Mr. Dark Cloud indifferently.
"Nonsense. ”
The Blood Shadow Old Demon was even more angry: "Who knows if it was someone from Nan Chen and the Eastern Jin Dynasty who infiltrated the Eastern Tang Dynasty to poison them? The envoys of those two families are all dealing with you, if not, why did the old man come to you?"
Mr. Wuyun did not get angry when he heard this, but nodded: "Yes, you are indeed doing things with all your heart, and it is not in vain that Your Majesty put you in the Tianxian Palace." ”
The more the other party had such a condescending attitude, the more unhappy the Blood Shadow Old Demon was in his heart.
However, he is much deeper in his qi cultivation now, and he is too lazy to argue with the other party, just expressionless, quietly looking at Mr. Wuyun.
"After the old man and the Eastern Jin Dynasty and the Southern Chen pass the anger, they will explain to He Daoyou. Mr. Dark Cloud shook his head.
The Blood Shadow Old Demon didn't seem to have any fluctuations in his mood, he just nodded, then stood up and said goodbye directly.
But before he could walk out of the main hall, someone else suddenly came in from outside.
When the visitor saw Mr. Dark Cloud and the Blood Shadow Old Demon, he saluted first: "Two seniors." ”
The person who came was Hu Ming, in the Tianxian Palace, acting on the orders of Mr. He and the Blood Shadow Old Demon, taking on the big responsibility, and being the main person in charge.
"What's the matter, so urgent?" the Blood Shadow Old Demon frowned slightly.
"Someone is outside the border of Yunzhong County, asking someone to bring a message, and wants to serve Chang'an. ”
Hu Ming said in a deep voice: "He said that he did the several poisoning cases in the Eastern Tang Dynasty. ”
The Blood Shadow Old Demon raised his eyebrows slightly.
Mr. Wuyun smiled faintly: "Interesting. ”
Soon, the subordinates of the Tianshu Hall also passed the news back as soon as possible, and the content was the same as what Hu Ming reported.
The Tianshu Palace, which is responsible for various daily affairs, also includes dealing with the outside world on the plane.
The report that Mr. Wuyun has received now is actually a formal request from the other party, and it has finally reached Chang'an.
The Blood Shadow Old Demon frowned slightly.
The news of his Tianxian Hall was faster than that of the Tianshu Palace.
But the problem is that the news of the Tianxian Temple is smart and the transmission speed is fast, which is as it should be.
The Tianshu Hall is actually so fast, not much slower than the Tianxian Palace, which makes the Blood Shadow Old Demon care more.
"Do you want to meet together?" asked Mr. Dark Cloud, "and you are also from the Demon Dao." ”
The Blood Shadow Old Demon didn't mean to save face at this time: "Okay." ”
He is lonely in Chang'an, and he has few cronies, and one of the very important objective reasons is that there are too few demon monks.
And the mainstream concept has always been wary of the demonic monks, and they stay away.
Now that there are demon path cultivators defecting to Chang'an, it seems that the strength of cultivation is not low, and of course the Blood Shadow Old Demon must be won over as soon as possible.
Mr. Wuyun said indifferently: "Okay, the person is here, the old man will inform you." ”
From outside Yunzhong County, to the inner city of Chang'an, even if you are a cultivator, it will take some time on the road.
Waiting for Mr. Wuyun to inform the Blood Shadow Old Demon again, after he came to the Tianshu Palace, he saw a Confucian scholar, sitting under Mr. Wuyun.
