Chapter 156: Raising the Account
The Taoist Sect has been silent for too long, although the fame is still there, but in the eyes of many people, it is inevitable that there are some doubts, and it is actually difficult to live up to the fame.
It wasn't until the First World War in the Northwest that the strength of the Daoist Sect in the Northwest region fully surfaced, showing the entire cultivation world what a thousand-year plan was.
In the long run, the advantages of this battle still outweigh the disadvantages, one is that after Xiao Yu purged the cultivation world in the northwest region, he has already shown an overwhelming advantage in terms of cultivators. Moreover, the attitudes of the small and medium-sized sects in the cultivation world, as well as the scattered cultivators of all walks of life, have undergone fundamental changes, and the majestic atmosphere presented by the Taoist Sect has made him choose to turn to the Taoist Sect.
Although on the frontal battlefield, Xiao Yu still can't match Xu Lin, but in the five northwestern states, Xiao Yu has a lot to do.
As long as he was given some time, he was confident that he would corrode the northwest like an iron bucket into a sieve that Xu Lin had been operating for more than ten years.
It's a pity that what he lacks most now is time.
......
Zhongdu.
In front of the Governor's Palace.
Sensen Iron Armor, two teams of black-armored soldiers divided into two columns, the long knives in their hands were unsheathed, raised and staggered, forming a long column of "knife gates".
Xu Lin, the governor of the capital, was dressed in Xuanjia, from the iron helmet to the whole body, the seal was engraved with white tiger lines, which happened to form a white-fronted tiger with hanging eyes, as if he wanted to choose someone to eat, and Qin Quan's green dragon armor had the same effect, and the waist was wearing the long sword given by Emperor Zheng to set the storm.
Xu Lin walked towards the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, and the long knife that formed the knife gate fell accordingly.
Xu Lin, who was dressed in Xuanjia, walked into the middle hall of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion.
Outside the door, from the governor to the captain, they all knelt on the ground.
The two teams of black-armored soldiers held their breath one by one, and shouted loudly: "The Metropolitan Governor has been promoted!"
"The Governor of the Metropolis has raised his account!"
"The Governor of the Metropolis has raised his account!"
"The Governor of the Metropolis has raised his account!"
The sound spread throughout the capital.
The Left Route Army of the Western Great Northern Army of Xiliang Prefecture was the governor of King Qin Quan of Jin, and the Right Route Army of Hanoi Prefecture was the governor of Minxing, followed by Xu Lin and walked side by side into the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion.
Xu Lin didn't plan to give Xiao Yu any more time, even if the grain and grass hadn't been transferred yet, he didn't plan to wait any longer, the lesser of two evils, he wanted to take the grassland in one fell swoop before the situation in the northwest was completely eroded.
......
In the royal court, because of this unexpected victory at the cultivator level, Xiao Yu rarely had a few days of free time.
Xiao Yu walked into the warm pavilion, there was a chessboard on the couch in the pavilion, and a woman who looked a little like Xiao Yu was holding Xiao Yuyi to teach her to play against Lin Yinping, it was Xiao Yu's cousin Xiao Yue. Back then, Xiao Yue disguised herself as a man and went to Qiutai with Xiao Yu, which can be regarded as having a relationship with Lin Yinping, who also dressed as a man.
Xiao Yu didn't bother, just stood aside and watched the chess game.
But soon Xiao Yu couldn't cry or laugh, one big and one small chess can be said to be taught by a teacher, regretting the chess tirelessly, playing for half an hour, there are only a dozen chess on the chessboard, compared with the image of his wife in the fantasy, it is inevitable that Xiao Yu will lament, said that he is proficient in all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting?
What made Xiao Yu even more speechless was that when Xiao Yuyi asked why he regretted his move, Lin Yinping told her very seriously: "This is called knowing that mistakes can be changed, and it is very good." ”
Xiao Yu stood behind Xiao Yue, just face to face with Lin Yinping. As soon as Lin Yinping looked up, he just saw Xiao Yu who quietly walked into the warm pavilion.
Xiao Yu blinked.
The eyes of the two met tacitly, and after Lin Yinping nodded slightly invisibly, he said with a smile: "I suddenly remembered that I had to send Yuyi to Miss Qiusi to study Buddhism today, why don't you get here today?"
Xiao Yue got up with a smile and said, "Then sister-in-law, you bring Yuyi over first." ”
A sister-in-law made Lin Yinping's face blush, but he still took Xiao Yuyi and said, "Yuyi, let's go." ”
Xiao Yuyi beckoned to Xiao Yue very obediently and said, "Auntie, Yuyi has left first." ”
Xiao Yue smiled and nodded.
Lin Yinping took Xiao Yuyi and passed by Xiao Yu.
The eyes of the two met silently again, and Lin Yinping blinked, signaling Xiao Yu not to speak too seriously.
Xiao Yu nodded slightly, indicating that he knew what he knew.
After Lin Yinping went out, Xiao Yue turned around and saw Xiao Yu, was slightly stunned, and lowered his eyebrows and said, "Brother." ”
Xiao Yu withdrew his smile, pointed to the soft collapse and said, "Sit down." ”
Xiao Yue obediently sat down in the position of Lin Yinping before.
Xiao Yu sat opposite Xiao Yue, picked up a black chess piece, and said softly: "I'm getting bolder and bolder, I used to just go to Qiutai, but now the grassland can't stop you." ”
Xiao Yue's head hung lower and did not make a sound.
Xiao Yu played with the chess pieces between his fingers, and said in a cold voice: "If you fall into Xiao Jin's hands this time, what will be the consequences, clear?"
Xiao Yue almost hung her head on her lap.
Xiao Yu said calmly: "You don't know, then let me tell you, Xiao Jin will use you as a bargaining chip to blackmail me, if the conditions he put forward can be met by me, it is fine, if not? Now that the skin has been torn, the identity on your body cannot protect you, and the best outcome is just death." ”
Xiao Yue raised his head and shouted again aggrievedly: "Brother!"
Xiao Yu snorted, "You still know that I'm your brother, so it's not good to listen to me." ”
Xiao Yue looked at Xiao Yu pitifully, "I won't dare next time." ”
Xiao Yu glared and said, "Do you want to have a next time?"
Xiao Yue changed to a smiling face, "What may, I promise never to do it again." ”
Xiao Yu said helplessly: "That's it, it's useless to talk more, since you're here, let's stay here, at most I'll take one with you when I run for my life in the future." ”
Xiao Yue frowned slightly, "The situation in the grassland is so bad, could it be that Xu Lin, the governor of the Central Capital, can fight all the way to the royal court?"
Xiao Yu stood up and knocked on the top of Xiao Yue's head, "Don't worry about the adult's business, the child's family, what do the girl's family do when they ask about these things." ”
Xiao Yue muttered, "My sister-in-law is not a few years older than me. ”
Xiao Yu was very authoritarian and ignored Xiao Yue's protests, "When you have a husband, you will come to me and say these words." ”
Xiao Yue's eyes rolled and changed the subject, "Brother, Ye Xia is really Qiu Ye's real sister?"
Xiao Yu snorted, picked up the pastry on the side and put it in his mouth, and said vaguely: "Qiu Ye Zhenren left home at the age of eight, commonly known as Ye Qiu, and he does have a younger sister named Ye Xia, and I heard that there is also a family affair set by the family. ”
"Brother-in-law, Akiba has something to ask you to come over. ”
The voice of Xiao Yu's part-time brother-in-law, Lin Han, came from outside the door.
Xiao Yu said, "Lin Han, come in and speak." ”
Lin Han pushed the door in and smiled at Xiao Yu and Xiao Yue.
Xiao Yu pointed at Lin Han and said to Xiao Yue: "He is the head snake here, and he is also your sister-in-law's cousin, Lin Han, if there is anything when I am away, you can find him." ”
After speaking, Xiao Yu said to Lin Han again: "In addition to Xiao Yue, there is also Ye Xia, the two of them have just arrived in the royal court, and they are not familiar with the place, so don't let them be bullied." ”
Lin Han patted his chest, and said arrogantly: "Don't look at the monk's face and look at the Buddha's face, the royal court is not so blind, this matter is on me." ”
Xiao Yu glanced at him and added lightly: "Although we can't let them be wronged, we can't let them get into any trouble, if something goes wrong, I'll ask you." ”
Lin Han's joy of ascending to the sky just now because he could accompany the two girls was knocked to dust, and he asked with a bitter face: "Brother-in-law, for my sister's sake, should we discuss this matter again?"
Xiao Yu patted him on the shoulder, and after leaving the words "no negotiable", he pushed the door and went out.
Lin Han stayed in place, like a mourner.
