Chapter Eighty-Seven: It's Hard for a Gentleman to Be a Bright Moon

This time, Qin Mumian did not go with him, and Xu Beiyou went to see Xiao Maha alone.

In the Lingwu County Palace, in Xiao Maha's study, the two sat opposite each other.

Different from the polite greetings in the Huxin Pavilion, both of them had the meaning of opening the skylight to say bright words, Xu Beiyou said directly: "Shibo, I think you also saw the scene of the two eighteenth-floor earth immortals fighting, if there is no accident, they will all appear in the imperial capital city, I don't know how Shibo feels?"

Updated most +; Hurry up and P@h

Xiao Maha's face sank like water, and he couldn't see too much joy and anger, but he wouldn't be in a good mood when he thought about it, after all, he was ravaged by others on his own territory, and he couldn't do anything about it, so he wouldn't feel good on anyone.

After a moment of silence, Xiao Maha said calmly: "The lord of Wanyan has a brotherly alliance with the first emperor, and he married the eldest princess, and he is the first emperor's son-in-law of my Great Qi court, not an outsider. ”

Xu Beiyou said noncommittally: "King Wei is the uncle of His Majesty today, and King Khan of the Grassland is the uncle of His Majesty today, and he is also not an outsider. ”

Xiao Maha said expressionlessly: "Words of heart." ”

Xu Beiyou said calmly: "It's a clear thing." ”

Xiao Maha closed his eyes and stared.

Xu Beiyou said slowly: "In the forty years of Zheng Zhengming, the governor of the world and the vassal king entered Beijing, and the Emperor Wuzu and Emperor Taizu of this dynasty were among them. ”

Xiao Maha didn't open his eyes, but said: "Your Majesty's strategy is as deep as the sea, so he naturally knows how to deal with it, and he doesn't worry about us courtiers." ”

Xu Beiyou said with a smile: "I'm afraid that Shibo's words are insincere. ”

Xiao Maha opened his eyes, looked at the head disciple of the Sword Sect, and said calmly: "What if you don't mean it, if Gongsun Zhongmou is standing in front of me, I will naturally think about it, because his Gongsun Zhongmou can at least block an eighteenth-floor earth immortal, but now standing in front of me is you, the Earth Immortal Five-Fold Building, it is indeed very great among young people, but in the eyes of Murong Xuanyin and these people, it is still not worth mentioning, what can I do?"

Xu Beiyou was silent for a long time, and said softly: "Does Shibo think that I am not enough to pick up Master's incense?"

Xiao Maha softened his tone slightly, shook his head and said: "I didn't mean that, I believe that you will one day be able to continue the mantle of Brother Zhongmou, and I am also willing to let the relationship between our two families continue, but now you are not enough to participate in the struggle between these top levels." ”

Xu Beiyou exhaled, "I know." ”

Xiao Maha continued: " Aside from the door, now the relationship between the court and those traitors is like a tiger wolf, the court is a tiger, the traitor is a wolf, although there are many wolves, but they dare not easily provoke the tiger, and these wolves may not be united, so the key is not how the tiger responds to the wolf, but how the tiger does its part, as long as the tiger does not fall, the wolf can only watch in secret, at most in private to play some unsavory means, but over the decades, they are nothing more than to bring down a Xu family that is expected to be in power, and they have arranged some chess pieces all over the world, but as long as the court does not fall for a day, these chess pieces will not dare to change color for a dayThe wolves could only watch from the sidelines. ”

Xu Beiyou said: "But there is still a Daomen, and the imperial court may not be able to do its part. ”

Xiao Maha said: "If the court is a tiger surrounded by wolves, then Daomen is a lion watching from the wall, if he is determined to besiege the tiger with the wolves, the consequences are indeed unpredictable, as for you say that the court may not be able to do its part, but it may not be the case, maybe this time the kings will be able to see the kings in Beijing." ”

Xu Beiyou was a little incredulous and said, "King Wei will also go to the imperial capital?"

Xiao Maha shook his head and said: "King Wei will not set foot in the imperial capital in this life, unless he is expected to inherit the unification, in the past, the first emperor and the queen mother did not let him come, but now he has to abide by the 'gentleman does not stand under the dangerous wall'." ”

Xiao Maha hesitated for a moment, and said slowly: "After all, His Majesty is not the first emperor today, and he has no affection for this uncle who has gone to Wei when he was a child, if the King of Wei dares to go to the imperial capital alone, then Your Majesty will dare to let him stay in the imperial capital for the rest of his life." ”

Xu Beiyou asked, "How can you see the difference?"

Xiao Maha said softly: "If what I expected is good, after the kings enter Beijing this time, Your Majesty will officially and clearly announce the identity of King Qi's crown prince, after all, it was only said in private before, this time it will be put on the bright side, as for whether to establish a prince or not, it is difficult to say now, after all, it is a matter of the entire Qizhou, if the prince is established, the king of Qi will have no reason to continue to guard Qizhou, there are advantages and disadvantages, and Lan Xiang will also take another step back, as for which step can be retreated, it depends on how much affection is left between the monarchs." ”

......

After Xu Beiyou went to the palace of Lingwu County, Qin Mumian wandered on the streets of Julu City alone with a wine gourd, she was alone, and she was a beautiful woman, if it was placed elsewhere, it was inevitable that there would be many unsightly disciples who came forward to harass, but this is Julu City, strange people are everywhere, there are many strange people like dogs, the more women, the elderly, children, monks, the more they can't be provoked, and they haven't encountered any trouble along the way.

The previous battle of the eighteenth-floor earth immortals opened the eyes of the monks in the city, but at the same time, they were all panicked, for fear that one of the two would accidentally affect Julu City, and they all said that the immortals fought and mortals suffered, and if they died in the aftermath of the battle between the two immortals, there would be no place to reason.

Fortunately, the two peerless masters who were much more than the immortals in the sky did not die to the end, and also let those monks put their hanging hearts back in their stomachs, which is also evil, two years ago, the Sword Sect Master and the Demon Suppression Hall Master had just fought in the city, and this time they were replaced by the Later Founding Lord and the Xuanjiao Sect Master, could it be that this place is a good place for a decisive battle?

Who knows, who can say clearly about those heavenly immortals.

Qin Mumian paced to a wine shop, perhaps because he smelled the aroma of wine, and stopped and stood.

The proprietress of the wine shop is a beautiful lady, but looking at the dress on her body, she is a widowed woman, in this world, a woman without a man to support the door, life will be very difficult, this wine shop proprietress can gain a firm foothold in Julu City, I think it is a bit of a good means.

Qin Mumian hung the jasper gourd in his hand on his waist and stepped forward to buy a pot of wine.

This beautiful lady looked at the woman who was even more moving than herself, and she was a little uncomfortable for the first time, and after serving the wine, she asked softly: "I take the liberty to ask, it seems that the guest is not a local?"

Qin Mumian said in pure Houjian language: "My surname is Qin, and I am a Houjian person. ”

The proprietress of the wine shop lit up with her eyes and said in surprise: "Then we are still half a fellow countryman, my mother's family is in Houjian Yunzhou, and I only married to Julu City later, I don't know where Miss Qin is from?"

Qin Mumian hesitated for a moment and said, "I'm from Tianhai City. ”

Tianhai City, second only to the capital city of Daliang City, is built to accompany the capital after the construction, and because it is backed by the Qingyin Palace of the Great White Mountain, many people in the Xuanjiao will stay here, and over time, this city has become similar to the location of the Daomen Linxian Mansion, after the rebellion of the five kings, Emperor Xiao and the general Murong Yan built after the Northern Expedition, the five kings are too busy to take care of themselves, and the Xuanjiao took the opportunity to completely incorporate this city into their own control, until now.
