Since a few decades ago, Xiao Zheng, the first regent of Houjian, lost power in Houjian and fled here, Houjian, grassland, and the north have a tacit understanding that Julu City has become a three-regardless zone within a radius of 100 miles. And under Xiao Zheng's management, this place has gradually become a huge market for cultivators to trade. In Julu City, at least half of the people are cultivators, and the rest of the ordinary people are also people who are used to seeing the "big world", and they can also handle the affairs of the cultivation world at their fingertips.

Seeing more, hearing more, and having more contact, I unconsciously have a sense of superiority, and I always habitually squint and pout my lips when looking at outsiders, and even learn the way of a cultivator who is proud of the prince and the slow prince.

It's just that the prince who came today is a bit big, not to mention the people in the city, even ordinary cultivators don't dare to make the slightest mistake.

Later built the second regent, Wan Yande.

Everyone knows that Xiao Zheng was the first regent of Houjian, and at this moment, the two regents met in Julu City, which inevitably caused a lot of fluctuations.

In the castle lord's mansion.

Two men, who were in their twenties, sat across from each other.

The slightly younger man has a good appearance, even if he is now the age of knowing the destiny of heaven, but his manhood is not damaged by the years, but more charming, wearing a cyan robe of the Hou Jian, and his expression is leisurely.

The old man opposite him was tall, but he was wearing a silver mask on his face, he couldn't see clearly, he was dressed in a gray robe, and he was holding a cup of tea at the moment, skimming the tea foam from the tea soup with the lid of the bowl.

The two were silent for a long time, and finally the man in the royal robe smiled and took the lead in speaking: "Xiao Xiang, it's been good lately." ”

Before Xiao Zheng became the regent who held the authority of a country, he was the prime minister of Houjian, and since Wan Yande had become the new regent, it was natural to avoid Xiao Zheng, the former regent, so it was just right.

Xiao Zheng put down the tea bowl, took off the mask on his face, revealing a face full of scars, extremely terrifying, and said softly: "What do you say?"

When Xiao Zheng lost power more than ten years ago, Wan Yande, who had not yet been crowned king, was already famous, and he had participated in the battle of forcing the palace that year, and personally slashed the commander of the Imperial Forest Army under Xiao Zheng, Xiao Zheng was finally defeated by the hands of the kings of Houjian, and I have to say that Yan De played a great role in it.

Xiao Zheng's tragic situation today also has a credit to Yan De.

Wan Yande coughed lightly and said: "At that time, each was its master, and this king had no choice but to do it, and today this king is here to apologize to Xiao Xiang, and I hope that Xiao Xianghaihan will do it." ”

After speaking, Wan Yande really got up and gave a solemn salute.

Xiao Zheng sneered and said: "That's it, the prince has the style of a polite and virtuous corporal, but he is much stronger than the old decay of the year, and he has become a king since ancient times, and there is nothing to say." ”

Wan Yande's face remained unchanged, he re-seated himself, and asked, "I wonder when the King of Dongping County and the King of Xiping County will arrive?"

Xiao Zheng took a sip of the tea bowl and said calmly: "It will probably take two more days, after all, they are not like you, and Da Zheng's side, at least they have to get by on the face." ”

Wan Yande nodded lightly, thoughtful.

There was a cavalry of more than ten people traveling eastward, roughly a situation of five people as the main one, each with one servant. Led by Xiao Yu, who had just changed into the python robe he had just put on, behind him were Xu Lin, Zishuiyang, Huangshuiquan and Baishuiduan.

Xiao Yu looked at Julu City on his horse, pointed at the horsewhip in his hand, and said: "This is also the second time I have entered Julu City. I just don't know if this time I will prepare 800 axes like last time. ”

Xu Lin smiled lightly and said, "Just wait for Yan De to drop the cup, and then he will rush out and kill me all in one go." ”

Zi Shuiyang sat on the horse with his hands in his sleeves, and sneered: "It's not easy to find a sword and axe hand who can wipe us out, there are three thousand disciples of the Dao Sect, known as the Eight Hundred Void Immortals, I'm afraid only the Dao Sect can have such a skill." ”

Xiao Yu said with a smile: "I estimate that the first round of confrontation in the cultivation world is almost over, some time ago, Qiuye Zhenren sent me a message, saying that Li Xu has returned to Houjian, and this time he may accompany Wan Yande to Julu, asking me to be careful." ”

Metropolitan Governor Xu Lin wrote lightly: "If Li Xu dares to openly meddle in worldly affairs, will several great people of the Taoist Sect sit idly by?"

Let's not mention that the five kings of Houjian each correspond to a demon sect elder, although these five people formed the Five Kings to discuss politics, but they have different dreams in the same bed, let's talk about the number of free immortals, who can compare with the Taoist Sect?

Xiao Yu was able to rise in the northwest in such a short period of time, showing a three-legged trend with the herdsmen and the Houjian, relying on the Taoist sect, which is the key to it.

Xiao Yu shook his head and said: "I don't care about how clever the great people of the sect are, I am difficult to find an immortal trace, and I have never seen anyone, so this time I have to bother the metropolitan governor to escort me." ”

Xu Lin laughed and changed the topic: "Northwest, Northeast, and Houjian, the three-legged stand, if you talk about the size of the territory, the land of the country after the construction of the country naturally ranks first, after our northwest is incorporated into the grassland, the second, the corner of the three states in the northeast is the smallest." However, Hou Jian has been from the dictatorship of Xiao Zheng to the rebellion of the Five Kings for more than 30 years, and there are many drawbacks, and now Wanyande is still a long way from a word. Our northwest is rising too fast, the foundation is the shallower, it seems to be majestic, but in fact it is like a beach fortress, which can't withstand too much wind and waves. On the contrary, the northeast from the shepherds is the most stable. ”

Xiao Yu said with a smile: "Today's world, from Houjian to Dazheng, is a world that is worse than anyone else, whoever is rotten at the root is slower, who is the overlord of the world." ”

"There are no heroes at the time, so that the erector becomes famous. ”

At the same time, after the herdsman finished his routine patrol of the border, he did not return to the northern capital, and also drove lightly and went straight to Julu City.

There were only a few people in the group who rode more than ten times, and the northern capital Zuodu Inspector Mang also followed them.

Cha Mang and the herdsman got up and rode side by side, but only a little behind the head of the horse, and said unscrupulously: "Lord Wang, do you really want to have a game with Yan De to seek skin with the tiger?"

The shepherd said indifferently: "I still have to look at Xiao Yu's attitude, Xiao Yu has always been jealous of our Majesty, you also know, Your Majesty will not live long, the vitality of the King of Jin is greatly damaged, the prince is just a child, older than a woman's hands, it is a great blessing to be able to govern before the age of twenty, not to mention others." Now Da Zheng is worried about eunuchs and party disputes. Outside the town, later built. When Emperor Zheng was alive, he could not be pacified, and there was no way for people to die and the government to rest. We can't sink with Da Zheng's broken ship, we should have planned early. ”

Zha Mang sneered: "The current situation, as long as Emperor Zheng dies, it will be a situation of chaos in the court, if Qin Zheng dies again, it will be a situation of chaos in the world, and the local governor will become a family of his own. ”|

The shepherd said softly: "At that time, the world will be in turmoil, and I will send troops to the king of Guanqin." ”

Zha Mang flattered: "When the time comes, you can't call the prince." ”

The shepherd sighed softly and said, "I, the king of Ruoqin, have taken possession of the people. Houjian stayed out of the matter and did not get involved in the war, which was a geographical advantage. Xiao Yu relied on the Taoist sect to plan, and it was the time of the day to dominate the general trend, and it was still unknown who would kill the deer in the end. ”

Zha Mang suddenly asked, "Lord Wang, what about the cultivation world?"

The shepherd shook his head and said: "In this game, the relationship between the Demon Sect and Hou Jian does not need to be said, the Taoist Sect is betting on Xiao Yu, and we are relying on Buddhism." As for the rest of the sects, they are not qualified to go to the gambling table, if they want to force themselves to the gambling table, just like the Molun Temple and the Red Lady, haven't they been destroyed by the Taoist Sect and Xiao Yu respectively?"

Zha Mang asked, "What about Da Zheng?"

The shepherd's face was full of regret and said, "The three families are divided into Zheng. ”
