The fall of the Great Monk is not unusual, he has neither a solid foundation nor absolute strength, but he is still not dead. A great monk is a great monk, and it is not in the most dangerous moments that he can turn danger into a disaster. After he seized the power of the Kangle people, he did not stand on the stage, he was secretly manipulating, so when Chu Xiong's rebel army broke through the capital, he was still in Qingliang Temple.

Chu Xiong hadn't had time to pay attention to him yet, and now, in front of him, was a mess. The whole Erkang Le has been torn apart, Ba Niu has unified Dongduo and Mingsha Mountain, eyeing them, Lu Xinghe is in Longshi Fort, as long as he takes a step forward, he can break through Changtu and reach Dadu directly. Internal and external troubles, there is no one who is not in a hurry to deal with them.

After Chu Xiong recovered the capital, he straightened Chu Xuezhou, the prince of Chu Yuxing. Chu Xuezhou is Chu Yuxing's twelfth son, he is only nine years old, and all the power is in Chu Xiong's hands. The outside world even calls him 9,900 years old, which means that he and the current emperor are only one year apart, which can be said to be on an equal footing. However, Chu Xiong is not a very ambitious person, although he is in power, he did not establish a dead party and strengthen his strength, but in order to avoid suspicion, he arranged his relatives in a more idle career. He is not arbitrary, everything must be made clear to Chu Xuezhou, and then it will be implemented one by one, and the relationship between the monarch and the minister is also harmonious. Therefore, the Kangle Dynasty gradually showed signs of revival. Some of the rebellious feudal towns were gradually conquered, and although they were still in turmoil, they were much more stable than before.

Lu Xinghe is here, and he has been standing still. Ever since he came down from the snow-capped mountain, he has been closely watching the forces in all directions. For him, restoring the Mai dynasty is his ultimate goal. He watched as Ba Niu unified the Dondor and established a new Dondor dynasty. watched him unify Mingsha Mountain and assign Mingsha Mountain to his territory. He didn't make any reaction, because he knew that the person named Li Jiuyuan was not aiming for Dongduo and Mingsha Mountain, but the entire Kyushu Continent, and Longshi Fort was the throat of the Kyushu Continent. He was waiting, waiting for Ba Niu to come to him, and he was confident that he would kill them here, and that was his only hope. However, to his surprise, Ba Niu did not come with an army this time, and it was only one of his envoys who came to meet him.

The governor of Dongduo, the general, the captain, and Li Jiuyuan bowed to the captain of the guard:

Since the automatic chaos, the country has been in danger repeatedly, the people of Mingsha Mountain have helped to abuse, and the people of Kangle have invaded several times, and there has been no moment of peace. Later, Chu Yuxing lost his heart and used the ultimate weapon to destroy Dongduo and Mingsha Mountain, and the only survivors were the chief of the guard and the Qiushan Peninsula. The Mai dynasty also fell.

As one of the five clans, the Li family did not take the liberty of revitalizing the former dynasty. But the Li family does not dare to be arrogant, according to the heavenly merit for their own strength, therefore, specially invited the leaders of the five clans, on the thirteenth of this month, in the town of Fallen Leaves to discuss state affairs, specially invited the chief of the guard to preside, I hope you take the interests of the Dongduo people as the priority, there is this trip, Li Jiuyuan on behalf of the Li family, waiting for the master.

Below are the years, months and days, as well as Ba Niu's autograph, and the print of his Taiwei's mansion.

After Lu Xinghe received the letter, he pondered for a long time, and then handed it to Shi Maopu: "Your Shi family's sons-in-law are really smart, since he knows that I won't recognize the way for him, fortunately he tricked me into going to him." You say, 'Shall I go or not?'"

Shi Maopu carefully read the letter twice, then raised his head and said, "Li Jiuyuan's words are actually true."

Lu Xinghe couldn't help but "Oh? He looked at him fixedly, looking at him questioningly. Shi Maopu did not have any emotional changes, and still said very calmly: "His behavior is also very reasonable."

Lu Xinghe still didn't speak, he was waiting, waiting for his explanation, and his explanation came soon.

As a new force, he is not worried about his own ability, nor about his own strength, the only thing he is worried about is what the world thinks of him. To put it bluntly, it is his legitimacy. He needed someone with authority to affirm his existence. The captain of the guard should remember a saying, it is said that if the name is not right, the word will not be good, and if the word is not good, the thing will not be done. What he wanted now was a legitimate status, that is, a state that recognized his Dondor. Although this move seems to be a bit redundant, it is of great significance to him, especially the affirmation of you, the chief of the guard."

"If I had attended this meeting and had acknowledged his legitimacy, then I would have no reason to come to Ryorstone and deny him passage while he was marching against the Kornais?" What kind of thing has Lu Xinghe not experienced? How could such a trick be hidden from him? As soon as Shi Shui said this, he immediately understood what he meant.

"This is just one of them", Shi Maopu said with a smile: "The five major families originally established Dongduo, from any point of view, each family is legitimate, and their Li family is naturally the same, so this meeting is just to announce one thing to the other four families, the Mai family dynasty is over, and the Li family dynasty is starting again." If I am right, he will certainly invite the other four families to participate in politics, and he will also arrange some positions for them, and even give them some aristocratic privileges, and their families will be closely protected. In this way, those who can really oppose him become his supporters, and he not only justifies his name, but also removes political obstacles by relatively moderate means."

"You're saying that the other four families will participate"?

"Why don't you participate"? Shi Maopu asked Lu Xinghe in turn: "The Ghost Dao Clan has long lost its political status among the long-time residents, and now that there is such an opportunity to regain power, how can it not participate?" Although humanists still have a place in the business world, after all, business is a ninth-rate business, and being able to participate in politics is still their ambition, and they will naturally not be absent. Not to mention the Demon Dao Clan, they are the protagonists now, and the people of the Li family will inevitably give the people of the Li family to cheer, especially because of the strength of the Demon God Academy, they are not allowed to stand idly by. The Shinto Dong family, their current patriarch is Dong Yue Kaede, and there is no reason for him to be absent from this meeting. As for the Mai family of the Heavenly Dao Clan, I think, they will also participate. In addition to fighting for their former dominance, they probably want to play an extremely important role in this meeting."

Lu Xinghe had been listening quietly, he didn't like to interrupt others, especially when they were narrating something very important. It wasn't until Shi Tuo finished speaking that he asked thoughtfully, "You mean, we're going to participate too?"

"It's better to participate". He didn't care about the change in the expression on Lu Xinghe's face, and still said to himself: "Although we hope to restore the Mai family dynasty, the people who can survive the Mai family now basically have nothing to make, let alone the emperor." Whether we are loyal to Dongduo or to the Mai family is a decision to be made. If it is finally Dondor, then as long as it is beneficial to Dordor, we should support it. If it is finally the Mai family, then it is equally important to have a future successor now."

Lu Xinghe fell silent again, he was very concerned about his opinion of "loyalty to Dongduo or loyalty to the Mai family", he was an old minister of the Mai family dynasty, and he was also an authentic Dongduo person, and he never thought of separating the two from each other in his life, but he knew the truth of what he said. In the current situation, Dongduo is Dongduo, and the Mai family is the Mai family.

It was an extremely painful decision, and he didn't even want to think about it, but he had to think about it, and he had to think about it on a deeper level. Loyalty to Dondor or loyalty to the Mai family is very different, and it means that it is a question of whether he will have a peace or a war, and it is a matter of life and death for him and his Dragonstone. Is Dong Duo worthy of his loyalty, and is the Mai family worthy of his loyalty? He never even thought about himself.

What about being loyal to yourself? Will it be able to divide one side, or will it be a complete defeat? Now he had to think about it. The Five Clans Conference in Fallen Leaf Town is far more important to him than others.
