Chapter 293: The Emperor's Order
Song Li took the thick stack of information handed over by the Holy Emperor, and seemed to flip through it casually, in the eyes of the Holy Emperor, this was simply a matter of impassing. [No Pop-up Novel Network] (First Release) In fact, Song Li remembered all of them, with his mental power, it was very easy to see ten lines at a glance.
After a while, Song Li finished reading all the information. His mind spun around quickly, and he quickly combined the Holy Emperor's actions and intelligence to analyze it, and he quickly determined one thing: the Holy Emperor was not worried about the war dragon, but his son Zhan Chunlei.
According to intelligence, Zhan Chunlei has recently recruited troops, and there are many strong people gathered around him, and it seems that there are actions. This kid himself is an inner disciple of the Miyun Sect, one of the three major sects of the Holy Lion Empire, and his father is a vassal king with a heavy army.
The Holy Emperor seemed to be very jealous of this Zhan Chun Lei, and he must have been restless because of Zhan Chunlei's recruitment behavior. The prince of Zhan Long Taiping has been doing it for a long time, and he may have lost his enterprising **, what about his son? If Zhan Chunlei really has an objection, then the Holy Emperor will be in trouble. Prince Zhong hasn't done it yet, and there is a fire outside, and the taste of being attacked in the back is definitely not pleasant.
Then he is looking for his own purpose, and he is about to come out.
An imperceptible smile appeared on the corner of Song Li's mouth, it seemed that the Holy Emperor was no less jealous of himself than the War Dragon Father and Son.
Obviously, he wanted to throw this hot potato to Song Li, so there would be several results: In the first case, Song Li failed to deal with the father and son of Zhan Long and returned home. If this is the case, then the omnipotent image that Song Li created before will inevitably suffer a huge blow, and the Holy Emperor will have a sufficient excuse to cut his power in the future.
In the second case, Song Li tried his best to trick the father and son of Zhan Long into coming to the imperial capital, although this situation was not harmful to Song Li, but it invisibly helped the Holy Emperor a lot. Once the war dragon father and son fall into his hands, it is equivalent to a big trouble.
In the third case, Song Li and Zhan Chunlei met, and the two proud teenagers did not accept each other, and the two sides did not give in to each other, and they fought fiercely, no matter who folded in each other's hands, it was a good thing for the Holy Emperor. It is better that both sides die together, then he will be completely restful in the future.
Whatever the outcome, the final winner must be the Holy Emperor. This old guy's wishful thinking is really loud.
"Song Li, what do you think?" Song Xingtian said quietly.
"Cut the domain!" Song Li gave a categorical answer. He had read too much history in his previous life, and for this situation, most emperors would choose this path.
"That's right, cut the domain!" Lord Saint Emperor couldn't help but shrug his eyebrows, Song Li's answer coincided with his. He asked many ministers about this question, and even discussed it in the court, and everyone had different opinions, some wanted this and some wanted that, but no one said the word "cutting the domain", and everyone was frightened by the force of the war dragon and felt that he was invincible. If you want to cut the domain, it will inevitably cause him to resist with all his might, and when the time comes, the 500,000 army will go north and smash the imperial capital, what will the court do to resist?
It seems that in the entire court, the only smart people who can see the situation clearly are him and Song Li. No matter how powerful the war dragon is, with what he does, he must find a way to control it. Otherwise, as his power grows, there will be more and more threats to the rule of the imperial court.
The best way is to take back the three counties that were divided into him and take away his military power, even if it is to retain the title of the prince, but without the fief and military power, the war dragon will become a tiger that has lost its minions, and it will no longer be able to threaten the rule of the Holy Emperor.
"Does Your Majesty mean to send me as an envoy to the three southern counties to invite the Zhan Long father and son back to the imperial capital?"
"Song Li, I only now understand that it is not easy to be the emperor of a country. Look around, except for you, there is no one who can solve my problems. The Holy Emperor praised Song Li without a trace, and then said: "In another month and a half is the sixtieth birthday of the Holy Empress Dowager, I think, why should the father and son of Zhan Long also come to participate, do you say yes? I sent you, the governor of the nine counties, to personally invite them, to give them enough face." Wouldn't it be too uninteresting for them to come if they hadn't come?"
Song Li smiled and said, "What Your Majesty said is true. I'm also the chief of the empire, and I really don't care about him in ordinary people. With the invitation of the first envoy of the empire, they should also be content. ”
"That's right, that's what I thought. The Holy Emperor said with a smile.
He knew that the Holy Emperor had no good intentions, but he was not prepared to refuse this errand.
On the one hand, the three southern counties and Yunzhou County are not far apart, and he wants to go back to his hometown in Yunzhou with his mother anyway, so he should travel by the way. On the other hand, although the relationship between the Ming Wangfu and the Holy Emperor has passed the honeymoon period, it is not yet time to tear the skin. Since the Holy Emperor has already made up his mind to let him go, if he doesn't go, he will openly resist the decree. It was not yet time to make a complete break with the Holy Emperor.
In Song Li's heart, Prince Zhong is the number one enemy. I believe that the Holy Emperor thinks so too. If the two of them break up before they bring down Prince Zhong, then the good situation is likely to change again. It was precisely when the Holy Emperor saw this that he made concessions in dealing with the incident of Song Side's beating, and Song Li couldn't afford to go to war with the Holy Emperor because of this matter.
Another very important point is that judging from the information, Zhan Chunlei's side is full of strongmen in the cultivation world, although the Holy Emperor suspects that he wants to rebel, but Song Li doesn't think so.
If you want to rebel, 500,000 troops are enough for the Holy Emperor to drink a pot, and there is no need to gather the powerhouses of the cultivation world with great fanfare, they must be planning a big operation, or seize a certain genius earth treasure, or maybe deal with some big people in the cultivation world. Song Li really wanted to see what so many strong people gathered for here. If there is really any strange treasure, with the character of Song Daguan, it is definitely a mistake, don't let it go.
"Since Your Majesty's holy will has been decided, the minister will take a trip. He smiled and took the hot potato thrown by the Holy Emperor.
Back at home, Song Li told his parents about the task given to him by the Holy Emperor, and Song Xinghai sighed and was silent. Prince Ming naturally understood that the Holy Emperor's move was not good-intentioned, but there was nothing he could do at the moment. They can't openly resist the decree, right? The situation is more delicate now, and it is not the time to tear up with the Holy Emperor.
Yun Lin was not as good-tempered as Song Xinghai, and scolded the Holy Emperor for taking revenge and crossing the river and demolishing the bridge. Song Li comforted him, and Yun Lin's violent mood gradually subsided.
She also knew that her son seemed to be smiling casually, but she didn't know how much he had in mind. As long as he decides, ninety flying beasts can't pull it back.
"No, I'm going to follow you to Nanzhou too. Yun Lin didn't worry about Song Li going alone. Although Zhan Long is in charge of the three southern counties, his base camp is in Nanzhou County.
Song Li smiled and said, "What are you doing with you? ”
Yun Lin has talent in alchemy, but he is not a combat-type talent, and if he really fights, he really can't help much. And there will inevitably be a dragon and tiger fight in Nanzhou, intrigue, with Yun Lin's thunderous temper, I am afraid that the possibility of adding chaos is greater.
As soon as Song Li said this, Yun Lin was silent.
"Don't worry, Mom, my son has a way to protect himself. And, I'll let Asa Yuki come with me. Song Li gave his parents a reassurance.
Yun Lin and Song Xinghai knew about Ning Qianxue's existence, although they didn't know how their son got in touch with such a strong man in the Jindan period, but after all, they just got in love, didn't they? With the eyesight of Song Xinghai and his wife, they could naturally see that Song Li and the girl named Ning Qianxue had an affair, and they all thought that Song Li had a lotus garden for the sake of the golden house.
In reality, the situation is far more complicated than they think. But no matter what, a strong man like Ning Qianxue is willing to stand by his son's side, and parents will feel a lot more at ease. A high-level powerhouse of the fifth layer of Jindan is enough to walk freely on the mainland. As long as you don't mess with those old monsters, safety is no problem.
Song Li agreed with his mother that he would first send an envoy to Nanzhou County to solve this trouble. When the problem is solved, it will not be far from the period of the Yun family's clan ratio, and then Yun Lin will set off directly from the imperial capital, and the mother and son will meet in Nanzhou, and then fly directly to Yunzhou. There is only one Yunling Mountain Range between Nanzhou and Yunzhou, Yunling Mountain Range is a large mountain range longitudinal from north to south, east of Yunling is Nanzhou, and west of Yunling is Yunzhou.
After determining the task of the trip to Nanzhou, Song Li happened to usher in a good opportunity to break through and advance.
During this time, he had been taking the Xuan-level Dragon Fire Lizard Flame Pill, and the medicinal power in his body had accumulated to a certain extent, and the quantitative change finally caused the qualitative change, thus triggering the promotion rules. When he found out this, Song Li and Ning Qianxue went to the Water Curtain Cave to retreat. Fairy Ning naturally acted as his protector.
What made Song Li feel happy was that the medicinal power of the Xuan-level lower-grade Dragon Fire Lizard Flame Pill was indeed not comparable to the ground-level pill, and the energy accumulated in his body was quite abundant, and the Emperor Fire Seed was feasted on, swallowing it happily, and the energy released actually helped him break through the three levels in one fell swoop and reach the peak of the third layer of fetal breath!
Each level of the fetal breath period consumed as much as ten times the energy compared to the foundation building period, but the level of the elixir refined by Song Li also increased, so his cultivation progress has always maintained the same speed as before. (http://.)。 This is one of the reasons why a Danshi has a respected status on the mainland.
Three days later, Song Li and Ning Qianxue left the imperial capital on a small flying beast and headed for Nanzhou. Although it is faster to take the Qinglian Platform of Fairy Ning, after all, flying with the imperial weapon is a more mana-consuming thing, and riding a flying beast not only does not consume mana, but also can get enough rest on the way, why not?
Song Daguan also put his golden fire unicorn car on the flying beast and transported it away, isn't the Zhan Long father and son awesome in Nanzhou? He just wants to swagger in with such a high-profile attitude, and he will be even more awesome than the other party when dealing with the awesome characters!
