Everyone looked at each other, Su Tong quickly stepped forward and opened the door, and in the corridor outside, the three grandfathers and grandsons were appearing at the door, the first one, wasn't it Jing Hongchen. prosper

Jing Hongchen looked at Song Lao and them, and shouted respectfully, "Song Lao."

Old Song glanced at Qin Ze quietly, and said with a smile, "Come in."

Su Tong let go of his body and let Jing Hongchen, Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen enter it.

After Jing Hongchen came in, he looked at the situation inside, but he didn't see anything, his face became strange, "Old Song, that ......"

"Red Dust Hall Master, why don't we come to the conference room and talk." Qin Ze interrupted Jing Hongchen's words.

Jing Hongchen didn't have any anger, Qin Ze was a member of the Seagod Pavilion, he had known it for a long time, in terms of status, the two were actually about the same.

In the end, several elders entered the conference room with Qin Ze and Jing Hongchen. prosper

Di Yueli and the others stayed in the hall.

After everyone sat down, Qin Ze was the first to speak, "Hongchen Hall Master, who do you think you expect more from the strength of the empire compared to the strength of your Hongchen family?"

Jing Hongchen didn't expect Qin Ze to ask this, he glanced at Song Lao, but Song Lao didn't say anything.

Jing Hongchen said indifferently, "Whether it's the empire or my family, I naturally hope that they are all good."

"That being said, but I think there must have been a lot of people in the empire who impeached you, right? I even submitted to the emperor the fact that you and Xu Tianran were in the same stream at the beginning." Qin Ze said calmly.

Jing Hongchen's eyes froze, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "What do you say?"

Qin Ze smiled and said, "I came to Mingdu when I was an exchange student, and that was the first time I saw you, I think you are a very shrewd person. Now, although you have gained some favor from the new emperor, it is because you surrendered to him in advance and helped him ascend the throne, but the bad deeds on your body cannot be washed away." prosper

"But if I have a chance that not only can you go further in the imperial officialdom, but even let your family go further, do you want this opportunity?"

Jing Hongchen listened, the smile on his face gradually converged, everything Qin Ze said was what he was anxious about at the moment.

He Jing Hongchen used to be Xu Tianran's person, Xu Tianran cooperated with the evil soul master, which is recognized as a thing that everyone knows, even if he looks down on the evil soul master, but in the same big dye vat, even if he does not cooperate with the evil soul master, he can't escape being dyed.

Now the emperor can still trust him, but how long has passed? No one can guarantee it.

"What do you want?" Jing Hongchen was indeed a smart person, and he guessed that Qin Ze was definitely going to make a deal with him.

"What do you think?" Qin Ze said with a smile.

Jing Hongchen's expression changed, as if he was making a choice, and after a few minutes, in the silence, Jing Hongchen spoke, "I can promise you, but you must hide it when you get it, don't show it at every turn." prosper

Hearing this, Qin Ze smiled, "Since the Red Dust Hall Master is so refreshing, then I will also provide an additional gift in addition to this opportunity."

"A gift in return?" Jing Hongchen was stunned for a moment.

Qin Ze said with a smile, "I remember that when Xiao Hongchen first participated in the competition, due to the excessive use of drugs, although his cultivation was promoted to the Soul Saint, his foundation was destroyed, making it difficult to progress in the next few years, right?"

Hearing Qin Ze mention this, Jing Hongchen suddenly changed from a big man in charge of the empire's technology to an extremely haggard elder, "That's right. At the beginning, this kid didn't listen to my advice, and insisted on fighting with your Shrek Academy in order to improve his cultivation, but unfortunately he still lost, and in the end, he lost both cultivation and victory."

Jing Hongchen didn't finish his words, in fact, in order to win him over, Xu Tianran was willing to help repair some of Xiao Hongchen's damaged foundations, but unfortunately Xu Tianran died too suddenly, and everything was not realized.

To this day, Xiao Hongchen is still a seventy-first level soul saint, and there is no improvement.

"What if I could repair his foundations?" Qin Zele said hehehe. prosper

Hearing this, Jing Hongchen raised his head sharply and stared

Qin Ze.

Qin Ze didn't explain anything, his right hand was filled with an incomparably pure green dragon power, and the extremely powerful life breath contained in it, even Jing Hongchen, when he sensed this breath of life, his cultivation that had already stagnated seemed to have advanced a little.

His face changed drastically, and after forcibly holding back the shock in his heart, he said, "If you can improve my grandson's foundation, I will give you a ninth-level soul guide, and you can choose it."

Qin Ze raised his eyebrows, and secretly said in his heart that this guy was an old fox.

Originally, he helped Xiao Hongchen restore his foundation, so that Jing Hongchen owed a favor, but he didn't expect Jing Hongchen to offer a ninth-level soul guide in return, and now the favor was gone.

However, Qin Ze didn't pay much attention to these, so he replied with a smile, "Since that's the case, that's good."

The two sides reached a deal back and forth, and in the watching of Song Lao and the others, all the news that Qin Ze had obtained before was told to Jing Hongchen. prosper

Jing Hongchen's eyes flashed, and his eyes flashed with joy, if he went up and reported these things to His Majesty, then whether it was him or his family, he would stand in the empire for hundreds of years, and there would never be any problems.

He knew very well what was going on within the Empire.

This information can also completely wash away his bad deeds as Xu Tianran's courtier.

Of course, Song Lao and the rest of the elders were also very happy, because a large number of top-level soul guide technologies in Mingde Hall that were not originally provided to the outside world would be obtained one by one because of this transaction, and such a transaction was enough to instantly grow the soul guide technology of the academy I don't know how many years, and how many years of detours would be lost.

At this moment, they finally understood why Qin Ze wanted Jing Hongchen to tell this matter.

And why did Jing Hongchen dare to leak the soul guide technology, it was very simple, his position was not stable in today's court, once it was unstable, everything was a floating cloud, and only if he could sit in this position all year round, he could change everything.

The deal was extremely satisfying for both parties. prosper

After leaving the conference room, a group of people were still smiling and communicating.

In the hall, Xiao Hongchen sat alone on the sofa, and the other three girls went to the hanging garden to play.

"Grandpa." Seeing Jing Hongchen come out, Xiao Hongchen quickly got up and came to Jing Hongchen's side.

Jing Hongchen patted Xiao Hongchen's shoulder, and then looked at Qin Ze, "Please."

Xiao Hongchen looked confused, not knowing what his grandfather was talking about.

Qin Ze glanced at Xiao Hongchen, in his perception, Xiao Hongchen's aura was too mixed, as if his originally unobstructed body was blocked by debris, which was the main reason why he had not made an inch in the past few months.

"Follow me." Qin Ze spoke, turned around and went to the martial arts arena. prosper

"Go ahead." Jing Hongchen glanced at Xiao Hongchen.

Xiao Hongchen asked, "Grandpa, what am I going to do?"

"Fix the problem where you can't improve your cultivation." Jing Hongchen said in a deep voice, "I'm going to leave first, go ahead, follow him."

After speaking, Jing Hongchen said goodbye to Song Lao and the others, and then strode away and rushed towards the palace.

Xiao Hongchen stayed in place for a while, until Qin Ze urged him, then he reacted, and immediately went to the martial arts arena quickly.

……

Inside the Sun Moon Palace. prosper

The warm glimmer was cast into it through the window, and there were three locking soul guides arranged around the entire imperial study, and all the sounds were imprisoned inside the imperial study, and they could never be transmitted outside.

Xu Fu was dressed in a dragon robe and was dealing with state affairs, and there were four people sitting on the seat in front of him, namely, Xu Tianyuan, the Prime Minister of the Sun and Moon and the Prince of the Imperial Dragon, one of the deputy heads of the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Master, and Kong Deming, the Great Worship Hall of the Sun and Moon Empire.

"Your Majesty, this is the Imperial Capital's re-planned defensive line layout plan." Xu Tianyuan took a plan and handed it to Xu Fu.

Xu Fu took it and looked at it carefully, there were a lot of contents and annotations in it. But after the support of the medicine, now Xu Fu's cultivation has reached the Soul Sect, and his spiritual power is much more powerful than that of ordinary people, and the speed of reading the schedule is very fast.

Currently Dragon & Royal

After joint discussion, coupled with Kong Deming's ideas, the two soul master groups finally reorganized all the military defense lines of Mingdu, not to mention more powerful, but at least repaired many loopholes in the past.

The dense soul guide detectors in the air have also been planned, and the high-altitude soul guide detectors will be used as much as possible without wasting all functions.

One of the biggest reasons for changing the layout includes that the original layout has been aged, and many people are clear about the layout of Mingdu's defense line, which is a very big problem. prosper

"What does Confucius think?" Xu Fu did not directly affirm, but asked Kong Deming that he could become the emperor completely because of Kong Deming's blessings, and Kong Deming's decision was the most important.

Kong Deming was the mastermind of this reform, so he naturally agreed, he said: "I think the new layout is feasible, Mingdu, as the imperial capital, represents the face of the empire, and from the day we abandon the city wall, it represents self-confidence, the self-confidence of not being afraid of foreign invasion."

"Only by absolutely guaranteeing the safety of the imperial capital can all the ghosts and spirits be excluded, and the old man doesn't want the attack on the palace to happen again."

Hearing this, everyone's hearts were silent.

Kong Deming spoke, and Xu Fu also agreed in his heart, as a new emperor who had never been in contact with state affairs, he still had a long way to go, but fortunately, someone was taking him with him now.

"Since Confucius agreed, then the plan for the reform of the military defense line of the Ming Capital has been decided, and then we will discuss the plan of how to lure the enemy deeper, which is the top priority at present." Xu Fu said in a condensed voice.

The big question about the layout of the imperial capital's defense line was easily settled without any waves, but then it was the turn of a new problem, that is, the things that Song Lao told the upper echelons of the Sun and Moon about the evil soul master. prosper

At present, according to their internal discussion, they also gathered heavy troops to confront the Sea Soul Empire in the southwest region, thus attracting the evil soul masters of the Sea Soul Empire to attack the empty land of the Sun and Moon Empire, and then close the door and beat the dogs, catching turtles in the urn.

However, if this plan wants to be realized, it is beautiful to say, but it is not so easy, and the opponent is obviously not stupid.

Such a big plan, it is easy to show the horse's feet, and in the end it will lead to a failure, don't forget, no matter how good the plan is, the people's hearts are unpredictable, and there are not many high-level people who have rebelled in the past few months.

The prime minister interjected: "The minister thinks that Prince Huanglong's plan to lure the enemy into the depths is feasible, but it is also not feasible, mainly because the evil soul master is too cunning, and now there are only a lot of people mixed in the empire, and even some nobles have cooperated with them, after our plan is launched, I am afraid that a nobleman or internal high-level will reveal the plan to the evil soul master, and eventually the evil soul master will use this plan to attack us."

His plan was opposed, Xu Tianyuan was not angry, in fact, he also thought about all the problems that the prime minister thought of in the follow-up.

"I have an idea. I don't know what you think." Suddenly, as one of the deputy leaders of the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Master Group, the ninth-level soul master, the ninety-third-level Douluo Strongman, and the old man with the title of Tianhuo spoke.

"Xiaohuo, tell me what you think." Kong Deming glanced at him. prosper

Heavenly Fire Douluo nodded and said, "The Sea Soul Empire already has a weak internal military, and now they have gathered heavy troops to the southwest region."

"Doesn't that mean their northern city defenses are empty? Why don't we take the initiative and directly reclaim the territory of the north? Take advantage of the enemy's lack of time to defend and recapture a large area of the country in one fell swoop. Finally, surround the Sea Soul Empire with pincers, and when the opportunity is ripe in the future, destroy it in one fell swoop."

Hearing this, Xu Fu smiled helplessly, "Heavenly Fire Douluo doesn't know, I and Elder Kong have also considered this, but the reason why the Sea Soul Empire dares to vacate the northern city is because the local nobles have long tied up the commoners. Even this group of nobles seems to have changed their temperament, and they actually divided half of their interests to the commoners to share."

"If we attack, the civilians who are taken away will inevitably fight hard, but I am afraid that the ordinary people who will be killed and injured will be countless, and the more people die, the louder the voices of the civilians at the bottom will oppose us, and even the evil soul masters

Profit from it, and don't forget, after the end of the war, there was no trace of the Evil Soul Master?"

Hearing this, Tianhuo Douluo's face changed slightly, he didn't consider the problem of civilians, this was a bit negligent.

For a while, it was extremely difficult to lure the enemy into depth, and it was also very troublesome to take the initiative to attack, and the imperial study fell directly into silence.

It is no secret that Xu Fu values civilians, in fact, Tianhuo Douluo can come and attack regardless of the life and death of civilians, but he can't say this, if he says it, he will directly oppose the emperor. prosper

"Didi."

Suddenly, in the quiet imperial study, a rapid sound woke everyone up.

The eyes of the five people looked at the communication soul guide located next to Xu Fu in unison.

Xu Fu picked up the communication soul guide and activated it, and soon, a loud voice came, "Your Majesty, the Lord of the Red Dust Hall asks to see you."

Hearing this, everyone present looked at each other.

Xu Fu glanced at the people with different expressions, and finally said calmly, "Let him come into the imperial study."

"Yes." The guard on the other side of the communicator replied respectfully. prosper

When the communicator hung up, in less than ten seconds, Jing Hongchen's figure appeared at the door of the imperial study.

"The Red Dust Hall Master is here, is there something going on?" Xu Fu asked with a smile.

Jing Hongchen quietly took a group of people in the imperial study into his eyes, and it seemed that there was a big discussion in the imperial study.

Then he quickly came to Xu Fu and bowed, "Your Majesty, the minister has something important to report. The impact of this incident on the empire is absolutely extremely serious."

Listening to Jing Hongchen's words, almost everyone present became curious.

Xu Fu was also very curious, so he said, "Extremely serious for the empire? The Red Dust Hall Master said, what the hell is going on?"

Jing Hongchen didn't have any delay, and said in a deep voice, "The leader of the Mingdu Praetorian Guard, Jiao Daoliang, is a member of the Holy Spirit Sect." prosper

"Huh."

When Jing Hongchen's words came out, in an instant, the faces of Xu Fu and the others directly froze, and their brains seemed to be empty, unable to think.

In the imperial study, it became dead silent.

After a while, the Prime Minister's face was shocked, and he asked in shock, "Hongchen Hall Master, you can't talk nonsense, the President of the Praetorian Guard is a general who was highly valued by the Emperor when he was alive, how can he be a member of the Holy Spirit Sect?"

Jing Hongchen said in a condensed voice: "I definitely don't dare to talk nonsense about this matter, but there is evidence." As he spoke, Jing Hongchen directly took out a photographic soul guide, "Your Majesty, the evidence is in it."

Xu Fu hurriedly said, "Play it out."

Jing Hongchen did not delay, and directly activated the Lingering Soul Guide, and soon, a picture appeared in front of everyone, and the scene inside was not anywhere else, it was in the martial arts arena where Qin Ze and them interrogated Nangong Bowl before. prosper

"This is ......" Xu Fu recognized Song Lao at once.

"Nangong Bowl?" Without waiting for Xu Fu to express anything, Xu Tianyuan, the Prime Minister, and Tianhuo Douluo all frowned, their eyes staring at the Nangong bowl lying on the ground.

At the beginning, Xu Tianran cooperated with the Holy Spirit Sect, and some elders of the Holy Spirit Sect came forward a lot, but they all recognized it.
