Escaping from the shrine, Bai Meng didn't dare to stay for a moment, and hurried towards the small city, rushing into the small city with a wolf bèi, and rushing into the wine store before Amano, and saw Pei Yan with a surprised face.

"What? Who are you, the Western Highness, who actually arrived at Edo Castle? And found you by the way? You two fought each other, and you lost to each other? You used secret techniques to escape?"

After listening to Bai Meng's explanation, Pei Yan looked at Bai Meng, who was gobbling up the beef on the table, and it was difficult to calm down for a long time, he obviously didn't expect such a result, you must know that before today, he was still secretly planning with Zhuge to quietly rush to Chiba and carry out a surprise attack on Chiba City.

However, he had just made a rough plan with Zhuge Mo, and before he had time to discuss how to implement it, the other party had already felt Edo City one step ahead of them.

Looking at the wolf bèi's unbearable white meng, Pei Yan couldn't help frowning slightly and said, "If you run away like this, will you give up Edo Castle and the Tokugawa family to that Western Highness?"

Seeing that Bai Meng was silent, just burying his head in eating the food in his hand, Pei Yan knew that his guess was right, Bai Meng lost completely this time, and he was able to leave nothing, not only lost to the other party in the fierce battle, but even the Tokugawa family, which was originally held by him, was completely lost to others by him.

Pei Yan frowned, and said with a solemn expression: "If the Tokugawa family chooses to take refuge in the other party, then we will lose one of the most powerful reinforcements, and with the support of the Tokugawa family, the Fuso Emperor will have more right to speak, as long as he stands up and raises his arms, I am afraid it will be enough to affect the entire situation in Fusang." ”

At this time, Bai Meng, who was gobbling up, suddenly raised his head, looked at Pei Yan and said with certainty: "No, it won't, that emperor can't control the southern part of Fusang." ”

After a pause, Bai Meng continued: "And." Now that Oda Nobumitsu's power is growing stronger and stronger, I am afraid that his ambitions will also be exposed, even if the emperor has the support of the Tokugawa family, I am afraid that soon Oda Nobumitsu will choose to stand on his own feet, and we can cooperate with Oda Nobumitsu, plus Kinoshita Hideyoshi in the south, it is still difficult for the emperor to sit firmly in the world. ”

After listening to Bai Meng's statement, Pei Yan thought about it, and couldn't help but smile and said, "Hehe, I can't see it." You kid has already planned for a long time, and the road back has already been prepared. ”

Bai Meng grabbed the last few slices of beef on the plate, and said while eating: "Some things are indeed beyond my expectations, but they are not beyond my control, not to mention, isn't there still your secret support Master Pei?"

was slapped on the back by Bai Meng, Pei Yan shook his head with a smile and responded: "Bai Meng, Bai Meng, it's time like this." Do you still have the heart to joke? If Oda Nobumitsu does not have the self-reliance plan you said, then our mission this time will probably end in failure. ”

Bai Meng took the rag handed by the little scholar, wiped the oil stains off his hands and said, "No." We will not fail, and do not forget, we still have the identity of the envoy of Middle-earth, and I believe that Emperor Fuso may not really be our enemy. When the time comes, we can persecute the emperor with the prestige of the two saints. ”

Pei Yan was stunned at first when he heard this, but then quickly came to his senses, looked at Bai Meng with a smile and said, "Hahaha." Okay, okay, that's a great way to do it. ”

Seeing Pei Yan say yes, Bai Meng smiled on the surface, but in fact, in his heart, he was unwilling to do that, because doing that meant that he really lost to Lucius, and he needed to use other forces to defeat Lucius.

Thinking back to the confrontation between himself and Lucius, and thinking that he knew almost completely about Lucius, Bai Meng couldn't help but feel a sense of weakness in his heart, as if he had lost confidence in fighting against Lecius in an instant, as if the preparations he had made before now seemed to be completely useless.

For Bai Meng, this is a big blow to him, you must know that he has always felt that he is a descendant of the Hearts Royal Family, and the wisdom of his successor the Hearts Royal Family, with the wisdom and strategy that can deceive everyone and calculate everyone, so that he can always be invincible.

But now, the appearance of Lucius, and the strength he has shown, is completely invulnerable, and although Bai Meng has the resourcefulness to calculate everyone, he has never been able to calculate Lucius.

It can be said that as early as when the Sanctuary was still around, the Hearts were known for their wisdom, and the successive kings of the Hearts Clan were able to use their wits to calculate and play with a qiē in the palm of their hands.

Even if the Black Spear and the Prism Diamond came to power later, and most people began to disagree with the founder, the Red Heart Royal Clan was still able to occupy a place in the entire Sanctuary without anyone else noticing, and even the powerful Prism Diamond and Black Spear families at that time did not dare to move the Red Heart Royal Clan.

As a result, after the fall of the Sanctuary, the Hearts were able to leave a complete inheritance and some specific schemes and tests, just waiting for the descendants of the royal family to appear.

It can be said that after obtaining the inheritance of the Hearts Royal Family, obtaining the wisdom of the Hearts of the Ages, and passing through the special inheritance of the Sand Sea Empire, Bai Meng has extraordinary confidence in his own strength.

It's as if he was able to enter Middle-earth smoothly, and gain the trust of the powerful Tang Empire Holy Emperor in Middle-earth, become the most trusted courtier of the Tang Empire's Holy Emperor, obtain the treasures of the Middle-earth civilization given to him by the Holy Emperor, and be able to learn the things of various civilizations in Middle-earth, and even the so-called cultivation method of the Middle-earth civilization.

After learning that Lucius had arrived in Fuso, Bai Meng felt excited, he felt that the East was his home field, and it would be very easy to clean up Lucius.

Now, the result is completely different from what Bai Meng thought at the beginning, not only was he not able to successfully clean up Lucius, but he was beaten by Lucius, and even the shrine that originally belonged to him was occupied by the other party.

This confrontation made Bai Meng suddenly find that the self-confidence he thought he was holding the victory was suddenly crushed by Lucius, which can be regarded as shattering his previous self-confidence.

However, Bai Meng is a descendant of the King of Hearts after all, and he is about to become the next King of Hearts, so he quickly came out of the psychological shadows, feeling that this defeat was just his own carelessness, caused by Lucius seizing the opportunity, he only needs to plan well, and I believe that he will be able to win back a city soon.

Thinking of this, Bai Meng suddenly stood up and said to Pei Yan: "Master Pei, I won't stay, I'll leave right now, I'm going to rush to Oda Nobumitsu's side as much as possible, and I'm going to meet that Oda Nobumitsu in person." ”

Old God Pei Yan was sitting there, and he didn't seem surprised by Bai Meng's decision, but persuaded him very calmly: "Bai Meng, it's a good thing that young people are motivated, but sometimes you can't be in a hurry, some things must be done step by step, otherwise it may affect the whole situation." ”

After listening to Pei Yan's persuasion, Bai Meng still insisted: "No, now I have to speed up and snatch back the backward situation." ”

Pei Yan turned his head to look at the stubborn Bai Meng, knowing in his heart that Bai Meng already had a plan, and after thinking about it, he was saying more, so he could only sigh, nodded and said, "Okay, since you want to go, then go, but be careful." ”

Quietly watching Bai Meng leave the wine shop, the little scholar suddenly said to Pei Yan: "My lord, why did you let him go? That Oda Nobumitsu may not necessarily betray Lecius, if he goes like this, he may fall into the trap of others, and he will most likely be captured alive at that time." ”

Pei Yan immediately laughed when he heard this, took the wine cup handed to him by the little scholar, raised his head and drank the wine in the wine cup, and said with great enjoyment: "He is a somewhat impulsive person, sometimes he should be allowed to hit a wall." ”

As soon as the conversation changed, Pei Yan paused for a moment before continuing: "Moreover, in fact, his analysis is correct, Oda Nobumitsu is very likely to betray that His Highness from the West. ”

Hearing this, the little scholar asked a little puzzled: "Since you are also convinced that Oda Nobumitsu will betray, then why did you say before that it is more difficult to recruit Oda Nobumitsu than to surrender that Kinoshita Hideyoshi?

Pei Yan nodded: "Yes, he may indeed succeed and successfully persuade Oda Nobumitsu to turn his back on His Highness the West and their emperor, but unfortunately, he chose the wrong time." ”

"The timing is wrong?" The little scholar was suddenly full of doubts, not understanding the true meaning of Pei Yan's words, and even felt that Pei Yan had some preamble and afterword.

Pei Yan explained in the most straightforward words: "The so-called timing is not right, to put it simply, Oda Nobumitsu will inevitably rebel, but there are many situations of rebellion, some are ambitious and take the initiative to rebel, some are lured by others to rebel, and one is forced to rebel." ”

"If you wait for a while, Oda Nobumitsu's power is gradually growing, if His Royal Highness the West, or Emperor Fuso, wants to control Oda Nobumitsu, he will inevitably control his strength, and may even directly reduce his troops, and then Oda Nobumitsu may be forced to rebel again. ”

"If he is forced to rebel, Oda Nobumitsu must have a anger in his heart that wants to vent, and at that time we will go to him and explain the stakes to him, and I think he will directly form an alliance with us. ”

The little scholar suddenly said: "My lord, do you mean that now that Bai Meng is gone, even if Oda Nobumitsu rebels, it is not forced to rebel, and before the final corner, the rebellion will not reach an agreement with Bai Meng, but may drive Bai Meng back, and may even kill Bai Meng?"

Pei Yan waved his hand and said: "It's not enough to kill him, and Oda Nobumitsu probably doesn't have the guts, and he may not have the ability to kill Bai Meng, but Bai Meng's wishful thinking will definitely not work, and he is only afraid that he will suffer some small losses from Oda Nobumitsu." ”

After listening to Pei Yan's analysis, the little scholar was very convinced by Pei Yan's words, and then remembered something, so he continued to ask Pei Yan: "My lord, what should we do with the Western Highness and the Tokugawa family?"

Pei Yan sighed and shook his head helplessly: "Hey, this matter is more difficult to do, even if I come forward now, it will be useless, just abandon the Tokugawa family, or let Master Mo come and create some trouble for that Western Highness, and we can't do anything else." (To be continued......)
