Chapter XVII

If you cultivate to the fourth layer of the Trapped Dragon Duel, you can cultivate one of the secret techniques in the Trapped Dragon Duel.

This secret technique is called the Ascending Dragon Tyrant, which is to accelerate the flow of qi and blood through the change of the operation mode of the power, remove the "shackles" imposed on the body by the trapped dragon, and make the skill instantly improved.

That is to say, Li Ling is now cultivating to the fourth-layer realm, and one punch has the power of four dragons, if he casts the Ascending Dragon Overlord, then one punch will have the strength of ten dragons.

This secret technique is used to deal with some unexpected situations, and can only be used once a month, if used too much, it will overdraw the body and bring irreparable damage.

.....

It took six and a half days for Li Ling to finally consolidate his realm, but fortunately he didn't delay his journey to the Qin State.

When the door was opened, the young man in black and the woman in white were waiting outside the door, and when they saw Li Ling, they all spoke in unison: "Congratulations to the adults for their great increase in skills." ”

Li Ling's tone was still indifferent, "It's hard for you to protect the Fa for me, I'm going to go to the Qin State now, let's separate." ”

"We're here to say goodbye to you. The woman in white was a little sad, and said: "I am fortunate to meet the adult, I don't know if we can see each other again, please remember our name, my name in the clan is Zhu Ling, this is my brother Zhu Hu, we all belong to the fire lineage, if we die, please take care of our line in the future." ”

"Zhu Ling!" Zhu Hu scolded the woman and said angrily: "Our ancestors are sinners in the clan, how dare we make demands on adults." ”

Zhu Ling lowered his head.

"I will, take care. Li Ling patted Zhu Hu on the shoulder, making the latter's eyes full of gratitude.

"By the way, my lord, this is the best herb sent by Yin Ji, which she has collected in the palace over the years, please accept it. ”

......

Saying goodbye to the Zhuhu brothers and sisters, Li Ling went straight to the Air Transport Division, and this time those giant birds did not produce any more moths.

With the shout of the animal trainer of the Air Transport Division, the giant bird cried, flapped its wings, flew up to the sky and disappeared into the sky in a blink of an eye.

But there was an undercurrent on the ground, and a lot was going on.

On May 6, the 25th year of the Wei calendar, Emperor Wu of Wei died, and the whole country mourned.

The princes from all over the country went to Beijing to mourn.

On top of the funeral, the six princes suddenly went crazy, talked nonsense, lost all etiquette, made a big fuss in the court, and were demoted to the people.

On May 15, the four princes led their servants to attack the mansion of the eldest prince, and were shot and killed by the Imperial Forest Army, which had already been ambushed.

On the 27th, the great eunuch Sima Ru read out the decree of Emperor Wu in the court, exposing the conspiracy of the prince to send people to poison several brothers, abolishing the crown prince's throne, and appointing the eldest prince Cao Xiong as the crown prince and inheriting the throne.

Above the court, the eldest prince was furious, holding a sword to force the prince Cao Song to write a poem in seven steps, the prince faced the awe-inspiring righteousness of the eldest brother, repented, cried, and personally admitted the crime of killing his father, hit his head on the ground, until his face was bleeding.

All the courtiers suggested that the crown prince be killed, and Cao Xiong was grateful for his brotherly affection, and tried his best to save Cao Song's life.

The position of Prince Cao Song was deposed and imprisoned.

The prince's conspiracy was exposed, he was spurned by everyone, he felt shameless to face the world, and committed suicide by hanging himself from a beam that night.

On June 19, the eldest prince recovered from a serious illness and wanted to leave the sad place of the capital, the ministers stopped outside the mansion and tried their best to persuade the eldest prince to ascend the throne, but the eldest prince repeatedly shirked it, and finally the prime minister Jia Xu stood up, knowing the benefits, saying that the country could not be without a king for a day, if the eldest prince did not ascend the throne again, I am afraid that the world would be in chaos, and the country could take advantage of the opportunity, and the people of Li would fall into dire straits.

For the sake of all the people, the eldest prince finally got rid of his ideological baggage, and reluctantly ascended the throne as the emperor, called Emperor Wei Wen.

Emperor Wen of Wei succeeded to the throne, granted amnesty to the world, issued a decree, exempted taxes for three years, and sent envoys to the neighboring Han and Qin states to conclude a hundred-year covenant, agreeing on non-aggression for a hundred years, peaceful trade, trade and other treaties.

The world is peaceful, and all the people cheer and praise Emperor Wei Wen.

The palace, brightly lit, is a new look compared to two months ago.

In the imperial study, there are Emperor Wei Wendi and Jia Xu, Guo Jia and a group of strategists, as well as Xu Chu, Deng Ai and other famous generals, who are secretly planning.

These people are all confidants of Emperor Wei Wendi, and he can return to charge of Qiankun with a deposed body, which is inseparable from the strong support of these people.

Strategist Cheng Yu frowned and said: "Liu Bangnai, the monarch of the Han Kingdom, is a villain, capricious, extremely cunning, there are strategists like Zhang Liang under his command, I am afraid it will be difficult for us to deceive him, I think it is better to launch a thunder offensive before they react, and gnaw down this difficult bone first." ”

Jia Xu shook his head, "I don't agree with your suggestion, I think that first uniting the Han State to attack the Qin State is an old empire, Qin I is eloquent and strategic, but he died early, but the foundation is still not negligible, the second emperor of Qin is mediocre and incompetent, the eunuch Zhao Gao and the prime minister Li Si control the government and have been fighting with each other for a long time, and the entire court is in a miasma,

But in the final analysis, it is still the division of tigers and wolves, the background is still there, if we attack the Han Kingdom, it is bound to wake up this sleeping lion, and when the time comes, the tired division will face this awakening lion, the odds of winning are too small, as for the Han side, there are no fierce generals, but it is their shortcoming, you can put it first, slowly draw it. ”

"Jia Shi is right. Deng Ai pondered for a long time and said: "I'm afraid that the Han Kingdom is capricious, even if we promise heavy benefits, we will unite with the Qin State to resist us, and everyone understands the truth of cold lips and teeth." ”

"I've thought about it for a long time. Jia Xu talked eloquently, "This is with the help of Shu, we can secretly send envoys, let Shu secretly contact Han, pretend to form an alliance, stabilize Han first, wait to subdue Qin, and then clean up Han with Shu." ”

"Although Shu is located in a dangerous location, easy to defend and difficult to attack, but the mountainous land is mostly small, there is little land, the people mainly live by hunting, and they have already coveted the rich plains, and they will definitely agree with our proposal. ”

Cao Xiong muttered: "I'm afraid that the Shu Kingdom will secretly Chen Cang, and really join forces with the Han State to deal with us, after all, the Shu Kingdom and the Han Kingdom have been married for generations." ”

"The monarch of Shu is shrewd, not Liu Bo's generation can compare, between our country and the weak Han State, we will definitely choose us, as for marriage, it has been unreliable since ancient times, of course, everything is risky, there is no such thing as a ten thing in the world, what we have to do is to improve the success rate as much as possible, do our best, and obey the destiny of heaven. Jia Xu said.

"Jia Shigao, then set this plan first, and discuss how to deal with Qin Guo first?" Cao Xiong looked at Guo Jia on the side.

Guo Jia nodded and said, "I discussed this matter with Master Cheng before, and set a plan, the class will get an axe, if there is something wrong, please give me more advice." ”

Others hurriedly said that they didn't dare, Guo Jianai was a monk sent by the largest Xiuzhen sect in the Qin State to protect Cao Xiong, and his strength had reached the middle stage of Jindan, and in terms of status, he was above everyone, even if Emperor Wei Wen had to be treated politely.

Guo Jia said with a smile: "To deal with the Qin State, we can divide it into two steps, as long as these two moves are done well, it should be easy to subdue the Qin State, the first step is of course to cut off its minions, and use the hands of Qin Jun to get rid of Bai Sheng, Meng Yi and other fierce generals, the second step is to use the dispute between Zhao Gao and Li Si of the Qin State to add fuel to the fire, help one side get rid of the other, disrupt the balance, and let the family dominate, in this way, the Qin State will be in chaos..."

"Guo Shi Gaojian. Everyone pondered Guo Jia's words and praised them in unison.

Emperor Wei Wendi: "Master Guo, I still have something to worry about. ”

"Your Majesty, but it doesn't hurt to speak. ”

Emperor Wei Wen said worriedly: "This world is the world of monks, we will wage war against the Qin State, will the Fulongmen behind the Qin State interfere, after all, mortals with flesh and blood, it is difficult to deal with immortal cultivators, I don't know if the Ethereal Peak can deal with the Fulongmen?"

Guo Jia: "Please rest assured Your Majesty, the Qin State has become increasingly chaotic in the past two years, and the strength of Fulongmen has long been inferior to that of the past, and now there is no strength to wrestle with my faction, this Fulongmen will be handed over to us, as for the other Xiuzhen sects, they are all some local chickens and dogs, so there is nothing to worry about." ”

"That's very good. Emperor Wei Wendi breathed a long sigh of relief and said with a smile: "I have a few of them, why worry about not being able to achieve hegemony." ”

Everyone discussed for a while, specified the general plan, and saw that it was not too early, so they offered to leave.

Emperor Wei Wendi laughed, "Don't worry, a few people will finish dinner with the widow and then leave." ”

"Concubine Zhen asked to see her. ”

At this time, the palace maid outside the door reported that Emperor Wei Wendi was stunned, looked at Jia Xu and the others, his face turned slightly red, and he coughed softly to relieve the embarrassment.

Several of the strategists were all human spirits, so they didn't dare to stay any longer at this time, so they hurriedly stood up and left.

Jia Xu walked outside the door and staggered past Concubine Zhen, and the two exchanged glances imperceptibly.
