Chapter 209: The Qin family is here
"Zhuge Yunjin wants to see me?" Qin Ziling was slightly stunned and said, "Could it be that Teacher Lai has something to look for me?" ”
"Didn't you know when you went?" Xiao Jing smiled.
"Yes." Qin Ziling smiled slightly, then beckoned to the sky, and soon a huge blood goshawk flew from a distance and hovered in the sky.
"Zhuge Yunjin is also the judge of Xiyun Prefecture, do you want to go with me?" Qin Ziling said.
"It's okay, I'm going to accompany you today anyway." Xiao Jing nodded, and then flew up with Qin Ziling and landed on the back of the Blood Goshawk.
The Blood Goshawk spread its wings and flew, and in the blink of an eye, it flew down to the county guard's mansion.
"Lord Zhuge has come from afar, and this official has lost his welcome!" Walking into the living room, Xiao Jing arched his hand.
"Xiao Jun's words are serious!" Zhuge Yunjin hurriedly got up and returned the salute, not daring to be lazy at all.
At this time and then, today's Xiao Jing, in Zhuge Yunjin's opinion, is not only already comparable to a grandmaster-level figure, but her husband is a registered disciple of Lai Yinuan, a grandmaster in Qi refining, in places like Xiyun Prefecture, he is definitely a noble and prominent person.
Even if Zhuge Yunjin is a judge, it is not good to stand up.
"I've seen Lord Zhuge , I don't know what Lord Zhuge is looking for me today?" After Qin Ziling and the others were polite, he bowed to Zhuge Yunjin.
"There are two things." Zhuge Yunjin's face was straight and he said.
"Please." Qin Ziling said.
"One is that Elder Lai is telling Qin Daoyou not to meddle in the affairs of the Qin family and the prince in Wuzhou." Zhuge Yunjin said.
What do you mean by that? Could it be that the prince wants to deal with the Qin family? Qin Ziling's face sank slightly when he heard this, and he asked.
"I don't know about this, but since I said so, it is estimated that it is nine times out of ten, so it is best for Qin Daoyou not to meddle in this matter. After all, the crown prince is powerful, and this is a struggle for secular power, if Qin Daoyou must intervene, even Elder Lai will not be able to come forward. "Zhuge Yunjin Dao.
"What about the other thing?" Qin Ziling did not express his position, but turned to ask about another matter.
"Another thing is that Earl Qingyuan, the governor of the Southwest Metropolis, wants to recruit you into the army to help crusade against Wang Lang's traitors and the Corpse Demon Sect. Because you are a Qi Refining Grandmaster, he wants to recruit you, so you have to inform me first. Zhuge Yunjin replied.
"Earl Qingyuan is the prince's person, right?" Qin Ziling smiled coldly and said.
Zhuge Yunjin was slightly stunned at first when he heard this, and then his face changed, and he barely squeezed out a smile and said, "Qin Daoyou, don't think too much. ”
"Lord Zhuge should know that I have always been low-key, and there are not many people in Xiyun Prefecture who know that I am a Qi Refining Grandmaster. He, Earl Qingyuan, was originally far away in the national capital, and it was only in the last few months that he was transferred to the four southwestern states to supervise all the soldiers and horses, and he actually knew my name so quickly, and he also specially named me and recruited me to enlist in the army! Do you think I shouldn't think about it? Qin Ziling sneered.
Zhuge Yunjin's expression became more and more unnatural when he heard this, and after a while, he said: "After all, Earl Qingyuan is the governor of the capital, and he oversees all the people in the four southwestern states, and there are many ears and eyes, so it is easy to inquire about the qi refining masters in the four southwestern states." ”
"Look at Lord Zhuge who means you want me to accept this recruitment?" Qin Ziling glanced at Zhuge Yunjin and said lightly.
"Suppressing the rebellion in Nandingzhou and exterminating the Corpse Demon Sect, this is a major event of the imperial court, as a native of the Great Qi country, helping the imperial court to quell the rebellion and destroy the Demon Sect, that is a non-responsible loan. Of course, Qi refining is transcendent and worldly, especially the Qi Refining Grandmaster, even if Earl Qingyuan is the Grand Duke, he can't be directly forcibly recruited.
However, in this matter, there was already a word from the prison official, saying that if there was a request from Earl Qingyuan's side for the transfer of horses, the judges' offices in the four southwestern states should cooperate as much as possible. Earl Qingyuan didn't just recruit Qi Refining Grandmasters from our Xiyun Prefecture this time, but the other three states also had Qi Refining Grandmasters recruited and transferred. Therefore, if Qin Daoyou just has doubts in his heart, I am afraid it is inconvenient for me to refuse. Zhuge Yunjin replied.
"Since that's the case, I won't embarrass Lord Zhuge . In this way, I will trouble Lord Zhuge to help me reply to the earl, my cultivation in the past few days is at a critical juncture, and I will report to the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion in a few days. Qin Ziling thought for a while and said.
"Qin Daoyou is polite, I will order someone to reply to Earl Qingyuan when I go back." Zhuge Yunjin Road.
After saying that, Zhuge Yunjin got up and said goodbye.
"What are you going to do with this Earl Qingyuan?" After Zhuge Yunjin left, Xiao Jing asked.
"Earl Qingyuan's matter is not in a hurry, but the matter of the Qin family in Wuzhou is the top priority. The Qin family in Wuzhou treats me very well, and no matter how I say it, I am also a descendant of the Qin family.
If the prince really wants to deal with the Qin family in Wuzhou, I definitely can't sit idly by. But once you intervene, I'm afraid this matter will make a big fuss! Not only does the crown prince have many forces and masters under his account, but the prince, as the future monarch, to a certain extent, is an enemy of him is an enemy of the court of the Great Qi State.
With my current strength, I am not afraid of the Great Qi Imperial Court, I am still worried about the Tianyan Sect behind the Great Qi Imperial Court. The royal family of the Great Qi Kingdom in the past dynasties was all established by Tianyanzong, and it can be seen that Jiang Guangquan can ascend to the position of the crown prince, and there must be someone on Tianyanzong's side who nodded in support.
can decide the candidate for the future monarch of a country, and the person behind the crown prince is definitely powerful and powerful in Tianyanzong. Once I meddle in the affairs of the crown prince and the Qin family in Wuzhou, I will definitely not compromise and seek perfection, and I will definitely vigorously suppress the prince, so I will not only face the imperial court, but also the Tianyan Sect masters behind the prince. ”
Qin Ziling frowned slightly, touched his chin, and paced back and forth in the hall.
"Does Tianyan Sect have a Jindan powerhouse?" Xiao Jing asked.
"I can be sure that the prison is the Great Xuan Master, so there is a chance that the Tianyan Sect will have a strong Jindan, otherwise with my current strength, there is no need to be afraid of the Tianyan Sect masters behind the prince." Qin Ziling replied.
As soon as Qin Ziling's words fell, someone from the Qin Mansion in Anhe Village sent a message that Qin Xingpeng, the patriarch of the Qin family in Wuzhou, had come to visit.
Qin Xingpeng is Qin Zitang's own nephew, and when he heard that he was visiting, Qin Ziling thought about it and ordered someone to invite him to the county guard's mansion.
There were some things he didn't want his mother to know, so she wouldn't worry about them.
Soon, Qin Xingpeng came to the county guard's mansion.
When they met again, Qin Xingpeng was more calm and less arrogant than last time.
As soon as he saw Qin Ziling, he hurriedly arched his hand and said, "Xingpeng has seen uncle!" ”
"This is your aunt, and she is also the county guard Xiao Jing of Fangqi County." Qin Ziling pointed at Xiao Jing and said.
"Xingpeng has seen my aunt!" Qin Xingpeng hurriedly bowed his hand again.
Seeing that Qin Xingpeng, who was about the same age as himself, respectfully called himself his aunt, remembering that he was the nephew of Qin Zitang, who had a good relationship with him, so Xiao Jing loved him and Wu, nodded with a smile when he heard the words, and then took out a "Runzang Red Blood Pill" from the storage ring, handed it to Qin Xingpeng and said: "When we meet for the first time, I can't think of any suitable meeting gift, this 'Runzang Red Blood Pill', you will just take it." ”
Qin Xingpeng looked at the "Runzang Red Blood Pill" handed over by Xiao Jing, and his liver trembled.
This "Runzang Red Blood Pill" is much more precious than the "Wuzang Guiyuan Pill" that Qin Ziling gave him last time, one is worth four or five.
Last time, Qin Ziling casually took out two "Five Tibetan Returning Yuan Pills" to Qin Xingpeng, and Qin Xingpeng felt that Qin Ziling was really generous, and he was even more generous than the patriarch.
I didn't expect my aunt to be even more generous, and she was a "Runzang Red Blood Pill" in her hand!
How did Qin Xingpeng know that the little aunt in front of him was now a martial saint, and at that time, his son Uncle Ling had not yet been completely refined into a dirty organ, and it seemed that he was just a quasi-grandmaster.
How could Qin Ziling at that time be compared with Xiao Jing now?
"Since it was given by your aunt, you can take it." Qin Ziling saw Qin Xingpeng's surprised and stunned expression, and said lightly, as if he didn't realize that he was younger than Qin Xingpeng when it came to age.
"Thank you, Auntie." Seeing Qin Ziling say this, Qin Xingpeng accepted the "Runzang Red Blood Pill".
"Is the prince going to deal with the Qin family?" Waiting for Qin Xingpeng to accept the elixir, Qin Ziling asked.
"How did Uncle know? Could it be that you also heard the wind in Xiyun Prefecture? Qin Xingpeng said with a surprised face.
"I just got some news and speculated." Qin Ziling replied truthfully.
Qin Xingpeng's face gradually became serious when he heard this, and said: "Recently, the forces belonging to the prince in Wuzhou have been mobilized quite intensively, and I think the prince should be able to make a move against the Qin family in the near future. My aunt asked me to inform my uncle, saying that you have always been low-key, you have not shown any edge, and you are far away in Fangqi County, and you don't know that the Qin family has you when you come to the prince's side.
So she asked me to tell you, don't meddle in the affairs of the Qin family and the prince, continue to keep a low profile, and leave a seed for the Qin family. In addition to you, the Qin family had already taken precautions in the early days, scattering some young and young children to let them hibernate. However, those people's cultivation is not high, and even some of them are just children, so when this turmoil passes, the uncle has the responsibility to take care of them, and the burden on his shoulders is also extremely heavy. ”
"It seems that the Qin family has no chance of winning!" Qin Ziling said in a deep voice.
"The crown prince is now in full swing and his power is huge, but the Qin family has been going downhill, how can he have a chance of winning! It's just a battle against the ancestral land. Qin Xingpeng said with a hint of grief and indignation on his face.
"In that case, why did the prince delay until now to make a move against the Qin family?" Qin Ziling asked.
In fact, he had already known that the Qin family and the crown prince were wrong, but the prince never dared to attack the Qin family openly, and Qin Ziling naturally thought that it was because of the constraints of various forces, and he didn't care too much.
Now it seems that something must have changed.
"The prince has long wanted to make a move on the Qin family, but Tiangu's grandmother is a true disciple of Tianyan Sect, and she is a figure who is expected to break through and become a Xuan Master. One day, the grandmother did not lead the thunder and quenched the body, and when the dust settled, the prince did not dare to do it. Two months ago, Tiangu's grandmother failed to quench the thunder, and the prince no longer had any scruples.
A few days ago, he had been mobilizing people and horses, and ordered many people to take turns to go to the official mansion to sue the Qin family. Recently, the Qin family has been framed for the crime of colluding with the Demon Gate to kill living beings, and the transfer of people and horses is becoming more and more frequent and intensive, so we estimate that the day when the prince will do something to the Qin family is approaching, and my aunt has sent me to inform you. Qin Xingpeng replied.
