237 The Empress's Invitation!Xiao Xuanyue VS Li Ran!
"This ...... Manager Wang, how could you be in the princess's mansion early in the morning?" Looking at Wang Zhong and Erniu who suddenly appeared, Gonggong Qiu was taken aback.
Erniu walked up and said respectfully: "Back to Gonggong Qiu, the little one and the manager Wang came early in the morning and discussed with the national teacher all night." β
Qiu Huaili is so sophisticated, as soon as he heard this, he knew that there was a story, and quickly turned around and walked out: "Then you guys talk slowly, our family...... Let's go back to the Goddess Palace first. β
Li Ran stepped forward and grabbed him: "Father-in-law Qiu, don't worry, the world will change, the catastrophe will come, no one can be left alone, you listen carefully to our plan, it's not too late." β
As he spoke, he held the other party's old hand tightly and said sincerely: "Li Ran has been taken care of by Gonggong Qiu since he first entered the palace, and he has always regarded you as a gentle elder in his private heart, and he will no longer hide anything from his father-in-law today." β
After speaking, he pulled Qiu Huaili aside alone and told him all of Murong Yu's prophecies about the catastrophe.
In order to make Qiu Huaili trust, he also simply told Murong Yu about the poisoning, as well as the conversation with the founding empress Xiao Shenyue in the Yandao Shenji Cave.
"This world...... Is there really such a catastrophe coming to the world?" Qiu Huaili was silent for a long time and said astringently.
"Not bad. β
Li Ran said: "As I just said, Murong Yu has been seeking a solution to the catastrophe all his life, but for some reason, he failed and passed away in advance. β
"National teacher, when you talk about this, our family is naturally ....... Trust you. Qiu Huaili's eyes were as heavy as molten iron: "But...... You can discuss such important matters with Your Majesty, and then, with the wisdom and courage of the two of you, devote the strength of the whole country to resist the calamity, this is the best policy. β
"It's useless. β
Li Ran smiled bitterly and shook his head: "My father-in-law was also present that day, right? As soon as I mentioned this matter to His Majesty, I received a burst of reprimand, besides, think about it, if Your Majesty is willing to believe in the prophecy of the catastrophe, why would Murong Yu poison her and pave the way for the new emperor?"
Qiu Huaili was silent.
Indeed, he is extremely aware of the character of Empress Xuanyue, once she decides something in her heart, no one can make her change her mind.
Murong Yu couldn't at the beginning, but now Li Guoshi ...... It's also a little worse.
"Isn't there any other way but to take the extreme path........ Coup d'Γ©tat?" Qiu Huaili gritted his teeth and finally spit out the word "coup."
"Father-in-law, the matter has come to this, if there is another way to change His Majesty's mind, why should I take the risk?"
Li Ran said solemnly: "Father-in-law, rest assured, my respect for Your Majesty is far better than that of the Manchu Dynasty. β
"The old slave naturally believes in the national teacher's heart for His Majesty......." Qiu Huaili nodded, and then realized something, and hurriedly added: "The national teacher must not misunderstand! The old slave is talking about the national teacher's fierce loyalty to His Majesty!"
"It doesn't matter. Li Ran smiled and said: "Gonggong Qiu has excellent vision, I'm afraid I have already seen the clues, that's right, I love Your Majesty deeply, it is the love of men and women, anyway, I will announce this matter to the world sooner or laterββ"
"My woman's name is Xiao Xuanyue. β
"But before that, let me, as a courtier, go and see her one last time. β
Qiu Huaili was shocked, and said in a trembling voice: "If this is the case, does the national teacher need the old slave to do anything for you?"
"The day after tomorrow, the situation is destined to be unpredictable, and my father-in-law only needs to improvise. β
......
......
Inside the temple of the goddess.
"Minister Li Ran, see Your Majesty!"
I can't remember how many times I stepped into this dormitory, but Li Ran remembered it clearly, he had almost ten times, and he hadn't made a great gift to the monarch and ministers.
But this time, he bowed uprightly, and his voice shouted loudly and powerfully, shaking the hall and echoing endlessly.
"There are no ministers here, why don't you come over quickly?" In the curtain, the empress's rather feminine voice came, and then a crimson figure flew out, hugging Li Ran, who was standing in the heart of the hall, tightly.
Nephrite was fragrant, but Li Ran changed his usual appearance, not moving, and his expression was serious.
He maintained a respectful attitude: "Your Majesty, the minister is here, it is still for the matter of the Giant God Village in Western Xinjiang, the catastrophe is imminent, the ancient demon clan is about to appear from the Giant God Village, we have to consolidate the combat readiness deployment of the Western Xinjiang in advance, increase the number of soldiers, and strengthen the city fortress." β
"Hmph. β
The empress's face sank instantly: "Didn't I tell you clearly! If it is something else, you Li Ran will come to me to discuss, but if there is evidence, I will definitely allow you, but ...... This is the only thing that is not negotiable!
"I don't understand. β
Li Ran frowned, looking at the beautiful face in front of him that was in anger: "Your Majesty, doesn't you have any knots in your heart for the Giant God Village?"
"No, no......." The empress's eyes suddenly became in a trance, as if she had fallen into a nightmare, and murmured: "Five years ago, I drove the expedition in person, sent troops to the western frontier, all the way like a bamboo, fought successively, killed seven or eight out of ten barbarian tribes, and only a small number of remnants were left defeated, and fled to the old nest giant god village......."
"At that time, I decided to take advantage of the victory to pursue, so I sent five thousand elite cavalry composed of entry-level martial artists, all the way to chase and kill, but I didn't expect to chase to the depths of the giant god village, the valley protrudes into a heavy fog, and five thousand Daxuan elites have become bloodthirsty and violent walking corpses that have lost their humanity in an instant!"
"Well, there are also anecdotes about this matter, and the minister has also heard of it, and it is preliminarily judged that the "ghost fog" should be a corpse Gu array laid by a monk, and its cultivation is not under the foundation. Li Ran said thoughtfully.
"No, there's another thing you don't know, and few people in this world know about it......."
The empress closed her eyes and said with a sad face: "After the five thousand cavalry turned into ghouls, when I was shocked, I was even more furious, and that night, I personally led five hundred Xiao family clan masters and one hundred high-level alchemists to the Giant God Village to find out, but I didn't expect ......"
As if witnessing a painful memory again, deep fear appeared for the first time on the empress's arrogant and noble cheeks!
"All dead....... Every.......body's dead! Let us warriors have no power to fight back at all!Do you know? If it weren't for Master Xuanxin and the abbot of Jintan Temple Huibei arriving in time to save each other, I'm afraid I would have ......."
The empress's emotions became more and more agitated.
"I'm sorry, Xuanyue. β
Li Ran gently hugged the other party and said gently: "If I appear for five years, I will never put you in such a dangerous situation." Well, now that I, Li Ran, have become a Heavenly Mandate Monk and appeared in front of you, let's join forces and uncover the curtain of the Giant God Village!"
When he said this, he was absolutely sincere!
He wants to try hard at the end, if he can really persuade his eldest wife to turn back, he doesn't want to do any coup d'Γ©tat!
"No, this thing will definitely not work......"
The empress gently pushed Li Ran away, and said in despair: "You haven't experienced the terrifying existence in the giant god village..... In short, what I can tell you is that as long as we don't act rashly, they will never be able to come out for a while.......
"Li Ran, you are the beloved of my life, if you have to force me today, you can do it!"
The empress "choked" and pulled out the Xiao family's divine phoenix sword, "Come on, use your Heavenly Absolute Sword to fight with me, if you win, I will listen to you Brother Li!"
"Xuanyue, I love you. β
Li Ran's eyes were as gentle as water, and then his arm shook, and a silver holy light roared out in the void and slid steadily into his palm!
It is the peerless immortal sword that all laws are one, the Heavenly Peerless Sword!
"Come on, Xuanyue, I just want to know the true strength of the foundation building monks. β
