Chapter 320: Shock (2)

Taituan City.

The scenery of the city, where the Fiji family is based, is beautiful, especially at the end of this spring.

Countless pear trees were planted in the city, and they spread along the streets to the outside of the city, converging with the pear groves that stretched for miles outside the city.

The pear blossoms are in full bloom, like snow, elegant and clean.

Whenever the breeze blows, countless pear blossom petals fly and flutter, like heavy snow falling, and the fragrance is refreshing.

Most of the residents living in the city are children of the Fei family, but there are also some women who marry outside the family and invited guests of the princely family.

It is extremely difficult for ordinary mortals to see in the city, and even the work of some subordinates is mostly taken over by the children of the Fei family.

Nowadays, the crowd in the Taituong gathers, shoulder to shoulder, and the annual temple sacrifice is in full swing.

On the square in front of the Feijia Temple, sixteen dancers are holding feathers, and sixteen dancers are waving their dry qi, dancing with unique steps and formations.

There is a system of ancient rites: the Son of Heaven uses eight hundreds, the princes are six, the feudal marquis is four, and the following uses two hundreds.

The head of the Fei family inherited the Marquis of Yundu, so he used the four-dance system.

Countless children of the Fei family gathered around the square and shouted loudly at the dance.

There is a band beating the drum of the spirit dragon and playing the thunder of the dragon, and some people hold high the banner of the emerald phoenix, like auspicious clouds gathering. People laughed and raised their glasses.

As the so-called: the feather is dewed, and the dance is played by the clouds.

Every time the annual Zongmiao sacrifice is completed, it means that the power of the Zongmiao artifact will be more stable, and the inheritance and bloodline of the Fei family will become longer and longer.

Different from the bustle in front of the temple, in a secluded place in Taituan City, a heavily guarded council hall welcomed distinguished guests from the Fang family.

There were about more than ten guests of the Fang family, and when they came to the outside of the main hall, only three people stepped into it, and the rest were waiting outside.

The three people who walked into the main hall were led by a middle-aged man, he was wearing a black crane, a purple hooked thunder horn belt tied around his waist, a black and dense hair tied meticulously, a pair of indifferent eyes on his face, a burly body, and a heroic look.

If someone else is here, they will definitely be surprised that the visitor of the Fang family has a good identity.

This person's name is Fang Zhizhong, and he is the number two person in the Fang family except for the head of the family, and if it is not a major event, he will never show up easily.

Even the other two guests of the Fang family who followed Fang Zhizhong were equally heavy, and their words and deeds would affect the life and death of thousands of people.

As Fang Zhizhong and the others walked into the solemn hall, behind a large square table made of white marble inside, there were already people from the Fei family waiting.

"Is the prince and the marquis safe? When I say goodbye that day, I often think about it in my later life, and I often long. ”

After Fang Zhizhong entered the main hall, he bowed to an old man behind the stone table.

The old man was wearing a beautiful blue plain silk round-necked robe, and his wrinkled face had a pair of cloudy old eyes like Gu Tan.

His face was kind, and two long white eyebrows hung down from the corners of his eyes, although there was a hint of sorrow in his eyebrows, but the grace and elegance in them could not be concealed.

The old man waved his hand kindly and motioned for the three members of the Fang family to sit down:

"I'm old, and I don't know how long I have to live. When I went back this time, I remember that Dai Benhou told him that don't always worry about his grandson's affairs, and that children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren. At our age, it is time to live every day and night, and not to waste the years anymore. ”

Around the old man, there were also several important figures of the Fei family.

They were respectful and humble when facing the old man, and there was no other reason because the old man was the contemporary head of the Fei family, the Marquis of Yundui.

Fang Zhizhong laughed:

"The words of the prince will definitely be brought by the late life. ”

While speaking, the three members of the Fang family all came to the square table and sat down, looking at everyone in the Fei family face to face.

As soon as he sat down, the atmosphere of the greetings suddenly changed and began to become solemn.

Fang Zhizhong spoke first:

"Prince, the head of my family wants to know, the king's attitude ......"

Due to the recent sudden changes in the Fang family, the Marquis of Zheqing did not have time to enter the royal capital to meet him, and Fang Zhizhong came on order this time to find out the king's attitude from the Fei family.

The Fang family and the Fei family are the right-hand men of the royal family, and they have always been close to each other, and the relationship is harmonious.

"It's changed," said the Marquis of Cloud Dusk, "the movement on the Demon Clan's side has begun to attract the attention of the king. The king gave two paths, the first one, to assassinate the banshee named Yiqing!"

The demon clan in the Xue Kingdom has always kept to themselves, hidden in the deep mountains and rivers, and does not ask about the world. There has been no conflict with the royal family and the princely family for almost a hundred years, let alone war.

However, this peace was shattered a month ago, when the Narpent Clan retrieved a member of the clan who had been abandoned by a demonic curse from Pengcheng, a county of no shooting.

That clansman's name was Yiqing, and at the age of only eighteen, not only was his talent extremely outstanding and rare, but he had also obtained the approval of two artifacts for the first time.

Such talent and opportunity are enough for him to grow into a generation of demon kings.

The news quickly spread among the demon clans, and when the other demon clan's powers went to the Ming Snake clan in person to confirm, they expressed their willingness to share resources to help Yiqing grow up and form a good relationship.

Originally, the big and small demon clans in the Xue Kingdom were like a plate of scattered sand, but at this time, there were faint signs of cohesion.

Such a sign is a threat, a challenge to the legitimacy of the Xue Terran race.

And the royal family, the representative of the orthodoxy of the major princely families and the human race in the Xue Kingdom, will definitely not ignore such a threat.

If the banshee Yiqing can be successfully assassinated, then the hope of the Xue Kingdom Demon Clan to give birth to a demon king can be completely extinguished. As long as he takes the opportunity to divide and divide, the demon clan will inevitably be reduced to scattered sand again, and he will not be able to threaten the orthodoxy of the Xue Kingdom.

After listening to the words of the Marquis of Yun Dusk, Fang Zhizhong couldn't help but look embarrassed:

"Assassinate the Banshee Yiqing...... This idea has been discussed by all major princely families. However, according to the information we have received, the Naruto clan regards the banshee Yiqing as more important than anything else, and will not let her leave the tribe at all. Even several major demon clans have sent big demons to the Snake clan to take control. Obviously, these demons are also preventing us from attacking and killing the banshee Yiqing. Although if the power of the major clans is exhausted, the demon clan will definitely not be able to stop it, but ......"

When the Marquis of Cloud Dusk heard this, he sighed slightly:

"But everyone is used to living a stable life, and no one wants to provoke a full-scale war with the demon clan. It's really ridiculous, don't you strangle the banshee while she grows up, and wait until she enters the demon king, don't you still think that those demons can keep themselves in the deep mountains and old forests?"

Fang Zhizhong frowned when he heard this, everyone understands this truth.

But now the Xue royal family no longer has the absolute leadership authority as it did back then, and even the royal family has to rely on the balance of the major princely families to maintain its rule.

Once an all-out war with the demon clan starts, who will take the lead among the major clans? Who will be willing to bear the greatest losses and attract the prying eyes of other enemies? Who will be willing to fall behind in the distribution of benefits?

The power of the demon clan is far from being able to compete with the power of the human race of the Xue Kingdom.

However, due to the suspicion and strife of the various human forces in the country, the demon clan was given enough time to develop.

With the appearance of the banshee Yiqing, the demon clan is in the ascendant.

In the end, Fang Zhizhong said helplessly:

"Only waiting for the opportunity, we will send someone to closely monitor the Snake Clan day and night, once that banshee Yiqing leaves the clan, we will immediately contact a top master of the Grand Duke Ancestral Family to besiege and kill!"

Marquis Yun Du smiled and asked rhetorically:

"What if you don't get a chance?"

Fang Zhizhong couldn't help asking:

"What the king means......"

A hint of ridicule flashed in the eyes of the Marquis of Twilight:

"The second way given by the king is for the two of us to stop attacking the viscount named Jiang Yuan. According to rumors, the relationship between the viscount and the banshee Yiqing is not ordinary, if the first path does not work, the king wants to use the viscount to maintain peace with the demon clan. ”

Fang Zhizhong's color changed when he heard this:

"How can this be! That Jiang Yuan killed my nephew, and also killed the three generals of our family! He even slaughtered countless children of the Fang family! Even many people in the Fei family suffered from it! How could the king say such a thing?!"

The Marquis of Cloud Twilight snorted coldly disdainfully:

"Why can't the king say it? Now the most reluctant to go to war with the demon clan is the royal family!"

When Fang Zhizhong heard this, he didn't dare to answer.

There are some things that can be said unscrupulously in the capacity of Yun Dusk Hou, but once others say it, it will be a big disaster.

The meaning of the Marquis of Yun Dusk Fang Zhizhong understands very well that once the Xue Clan's human race and the demon clan fight, and the balance between the major princely families is broken, then the Xue royal family will have to be replaced, you must know that the Xue clan's patriarch Mo Jun has coveted the throne for a long time.

It is precisely in this way that the royal family gave a second way, such an idea to hurt the feelings of their own right-hand men.

Fang Zhizhong's eyes flashed with cruelty:

"I'm afraid that the king's idea is about to be in vain, that Jiang Yuan has already entered Wei County, and I am afraid that the news of his death will come soon. Jiang Yuan dared to challenge the authority of our two families, I absolutely can't swallow this breath! If he doesn't die, who will obey our two families in the future?!"

Yun Dusk Hou also leaned back in his chair and smiled slightly:

"The royal family has urgently activated the sound transmission array a few days ago, and ordered Dong Chongjun to protect Jiang Yuan. However, according to Benhou's understanding of Dong Chongjun, that guy is forgetful of profit, greedy and selfish, and will definitely not take the risk to protect Jiangyuan because of Wang Zhao. ”

Fang Zhizhong also smiled:

"The royal family wants to protect Jiang Yuan, and the demon clan also wants to protect Jiang Yuan, but it's a pity that they are all disappointed!"

After laughing, Yun Dusk's expression began to become solemn again:

"Jiang Yuan's matter doesn't have to be taken to heart, but it is another thing, not only makes it difficult for the king to sleep and eat, but even Ben Hou is like a man. It's been a whole year, but there's still no news!"

Fang Zhizhong thoughtfully:

"The prince said it was a year ago......"

Yun Dusk's face was full of anger:

"At that time, the incident happened suddenly, and no one expected to find a sleeping witch in Guxi County. In a hurry, the royal family hurriedly sent Chang Mojun to join the Lan Jiadong Chongjun, the Corpse God Dao and the Five Ghost Dao to besiege and kill the witches. This matter should have been nine out of ten, Changmo Jun was the number one master of the Xue Kingdom, and the witch had just woken up. However, at the critical moment, Changmo Jun actually released the water, so that the witch escaped, and his whereabouts are still unknown!"

Fang Zhizhong nodded, and was about to speak.

At this time, he suddenly saw a child of the Fei family walking into the main hall quickly.

The disciple hurriedly came to the Marquis of Twilight and whispered a few words in his ear, then turned to leave.

Yun Duihou's face was full of surprise, and he said to Fang Zhizhong:

"That viscount named Jiang Yuan actually ...... Wiped out the Corpse Godway. ”
