Chapter 1218: Trade-offs

Shen Yu is disgusted with fighting for power and profit, and when she left Mirage City, she actually took the initiative to give up, otherwise Shen Yu has been in charge of Mirage City for many years, and her power is far stronger than Shen Xing, and she will not be defeated. But she's not stupid, just a little bit. Apparently she promised that it would be more beneficial for the goshawk.

Goshawk has not been in the church for many years, and has little stake in the leader of the sect, he is the governor of Haishi City, sheltering the Golden Crow Sect, and then was put in prison by the Rakshasa Emperor, almost his life is guaranteed, it can be said that he has worked hard. If Shen Yu is recruited again and Haishi City is recaptured, he will definitely become a figure comparable to the three protectors.

"What if the Forbidden Army is defeated?"

Ordinary people are confused, they can only resign themselves to fate, the magic power of the immortal Buddha is vast, the laws of the universe are penetrated, and they know how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. Cultivators are far more intelligent than ordinary people, but they are not as good as gods and Buddhas, they know the laws of the universe, but they don't know why, and they want to fight against fate, but they are like mantis arms as a car, and it is difficult to escape the fate of being crushed. Accept your fate, but you are unwilling.

Long Po is the god master of the earthly dragon, and her status is like a god, but she is not a human after all. Besides, Xuan Heru Kunlun Protoss cannot escape the fate of decline, how can a god who is as strong as a god and Buddha really grasp his own fate?

Long Po acts in the interests of the Earth Walking Dragon clan, but the trend of the Earth Walking Dragon is not something she can decide alone. Long Po and Goshawk were very close at the beginning, and the identity of the Goshawk Golden Crow Sect was not known, and the power of the Golden Crow Sect was not as strong as it is today.

The Earth Walking Dragon is one of the famous clans of the Heavenly Realm and believes in Western religion. Switching to the Golden Crow Sect may not cause any inconvenience to the Earth Walking Dragon, and it will definitely affect the status of the Divine Masters. This is also the reason why the gods and goddesses actively maintain the court of depth of field.

Now it seems that this decision was not very clever. The speed at which the Golden Crow Sect expanded was beyond the expectations of the Divine Masters. Although the Earth Walking Dragon was once very prosperous, now its power is not as strong as that of the Rakshasa Country, and it is impossible to confront the Golden Crow Sect at all.

Despite the strength of the forbidden army, Long Po was already keenly aware that it was a matter of time before the Golden Crow Sect would take power. Even if Lu Beixiong can win a few battles, it will only make the imperial court survive for a while.

"What do you mean by this, do you want to defect to the Golden Crow Sect?"

Shen Yu felt strange, she also knew a little about Long Po, Long Po and Goshawk had a close relationship, it was rumored that Goshawk was one of the disciples of Xin Wenli, and Long Po was originally very close to the Golden Crow Sect. But after the goshawk was exiled and Xin Wenli was exiled, she turned to serve the court and became a guest of the sleeping crane.

"I'm just reminding Shen Shuai that at this point, he should think about his own future and fate. Shen Shuai is a man of fame, and he will not be martyred for the court. ”

Long Po's attitude is indeed a little strange, such a confidential matter has no reason to be known to outsiders. Unless she reached some kind of agreement with the Golden Crow Sect to convince Shenyu to surrender.

Shen Yu was slightly silent, her relationship with Long Po was far from the point of putting her heart into her heart, and she had a secret agreement with Luo Yongyan, so she would not confide in Long Po.

"If Shen Shuai is willing to change the banner, I can thread the needle and help you introduce the important people of the Golden Crow Sect. ”

Long Po suddenly lowered her voice and said solemnly.

Shen Yu was stunned for a moment, and said curiously: "I don't know who the important person you are talking about?"

Long Po smiled mysteriously, "Goshawk." ”

"Goshawk, the last governor of Rakshasa Sea City?"

Although Goshawk has been out of office for a long time, when he was the governor of Haishi, he actively suppressed the major sects and created conditions for the rise of the Golden Crow Sect. Ming repairs the plank road, secretly crosses Chen Cang, and it is simply to hide from the sky and cross the sea.

"Not bad. ”

Long Po's attitude suddenly changed drastically, and it had a lot to do with the goshawk. After the new Wenli raised the incident in the imperial capital, he had already released the goshawk. Goshawk is a disciple of Xin Wenli, also known as Cang Zhenqi.

Goshawk is extremely familiar with Rakshasa Sea City, and immediately after being released from prison, he secretly sneaked back to Rakshasa Sea City to preside over the overall situation. After he got in touch with Long Po, he wanted to further disintegrate the power of the sleeping crane and regain control of Haishi City.

The two hit it off, Long Po and Luo Yongyan had similar views, they both thought that Shen Yu had not served the court for a long time, and she was the sister of the mirage king, so she was easy to talk about, so she could attack her first.

"Shen Yu must know that Goshawk is not only the governor of Haishi, but also the personal disciple of the Jinwu Sect's New Wenli disciple. He has been in charge of Rakshasa Sea City for many years, and there are countless protΓ©gΓ©s and former officials. As soon as he returned, Haishi City would definitely not be able to defend it. Instead of waiting to be a prisoner of the Golden Crow Sect, it is better to take the initiative to surrender and not lose his dignity, and I don't know how to be cautious?"

Long Po and the goshawk have been very close, and they have always admired the talent of the goshawk. Goshawk has both civil and military qualifications, unlike Wei Zhenyi and Confucianism, but the two of them are both recruiting Shenyu, but their attitudes are quite different. Luo Yongyan is full of compromises, all because Wei Zhenyi does not have the means to break through Haishi City, and Shen Yu needs to respond internally. Goshawk is much more confident, he has been in the governorship for many years, and he has indeed cultivated many cronies, and the Mirage Society, which is the number one gang in the sea market, was cultivated by him.

But after the goshawk was arrested, he was already a rebel of the imperial court, and he was not absolutely sure whether these forces would obey his orders.

Shen Yu didn't believe that when the goshawk ascended to the heights, Haishi City could be owned by him in an instant. However, the Golden Crow Sect has already fledged, and 'those who know the times are handsome', if these people choose to surrender, it is obvious that the goshawk who was the governor of Haishi has a certain advantage.

"You're in such a hurry to lobby me, could it be that the goshawk has already entered the city?"

Wei Zhenyi and Goshawk both came to recruit Shenyu to surrender, but she didn't expect it. The two of them are both close disciples of Xin Wenli, Wei Zhenyi is the acting sect leader, and Goshawk is the governor of Haishi, and there will definitely be a big difference between them when they enter the Golden Crow Sect in the future.

The Golden Crow religion is very different from the Western religion and the Shura religion. Heaven and earth are positioned, yin and yang rise and fall, and there are good and evil in the world, seven emotions and six desires. Many powerful sects have cultivated the world with good Taoism, such as Western Christianity and Shura Christianity. The Jinwu Sect is very different, emphasizing more on the weak and the strong, and respecting the strong. It is the Jinwu Sect that has not won the world, and there are already many factions in the sect, and the party is the same to fight against different parties, and to exclude dissidents. No matter which one Shen Yu agrees, it is equivalent to becoming their henchman, and if he makes a mistake, he may not recover.

Hanxing, Li Shiqi lobbied the king of Qi, and between the drums and talks, he said that he would surrender more than 70 cities. Han Xin attacked Zhao Bayan, and fought for thousands of miles, but it was not as great as Li Shiqi's merit, and in order to fight for merit, he attacked the unprepared Qi State, causing Li Shiqi to be killed by Tian Heng.

The recapture of Haishi City is naturally a great achievement, and the goshawk has struck at the major sects and protected the Jinwu Sect, although it has made great achievements. His identity has been unknown for a long time, and he cannot be compared with the three protectors, and he was imprisoned by the Rakshasa Emperor until Xinwenli broke through the imperial capital, and then he was able to regain himself. Although he is a disciple of Xin Wenli, his foundation in the sect is far less profound than that of the three protectors, and he can't wait to come to Haishi City, naturally he wants to take a great position to establish his position as not inferior to the three protectors.

Xin Wenli probably didn't expect that Goshawk and Wei Zhenyi would send someone to contact Shenyu at the same time.

The more anxious Goshawk and Wei Zhenyi were, the more Shen Yu wanted to wait for the price and sell.

"The kindness of the divine master, Shen Yu's heart. However, the Governor of Mianhe has the grace of knowing me, and now that the Golden Crow Sect is powerful, and the Governor is in a difficult situation, how can I take revenge and abandon him. The annoying priest told the goshawk that I couldn't obey my fate. ”

Shen Yu was also a little angry at Goshawk's tough attitude, she was once the lord of Mirage City, and she was quite bold and did not take Goshawk's words to heart. Speaking of conditions, Goshawk's sincerity is obviously not as good as Wei Zhenyi. Although Wei Zhenyi may be just empty words, at least it makes people feel comfortable and respected.

Surrender is a matter of personal interest, and no matter what happens in the future, since the decision to surrender must be the value of the person. There is also the possibility of surrender, and sincerity must be shown. Li Zicheng recruited Wu Sangui to surrender, but there was a general who forcibly seized his beloved concubine, so he made Wu Sangui surrender to the Qing Dynasty, sowing the disaster of defeat. Wu Meicun's poem, 'How should a wife be a big deal, and a hero is helpless and amorous'. This still doesn't see Wu Sangui's rebellion and self-reliance in his later years, where is a careerist like Wu Sangui who is heroic and amorous, just a glimpse of the whole leopard, he has not yet surrendered, and his wife is no longer safe, isn't it chilling?

There is a tendency to fall, but it must be close to the end of the mountain and water, and the panic cannot be endless. At this time, it is necessary to be cautious to appease, and not to provoke it to take risks and gamble, and the results may be beyond control.

Long Po, Luo Yongyan and Shen Yu have no deep friendship. Long Po and Shen Yu are working by the side of Mianhe, and their relationship is closer. But her words were not as good as Luo Yongyan's words, and Shen Yu naturally didn't want to talk to her in detail.

"It's not too early. I'm going back to tell the Governor. I won't accompany you. ”

Shen Yu didn't want to talk to Long Po more, Ming Qin and Tong Jiaoru were hiding in the dark, and most of them heard Long Po's words. Xin Wenli captured the imperial capital, and the victory or defeat was decided, almost irretrievable. At this time, people were panicking, which was reasonable, since Shen Yu did not turn his face on the spot, he naturally would not tell Mianhe.

"Be cautious, don't miss the opportunity. I hope you will make a decision sooner. ”

Long Po also knew that it was impossible for Shen Yu to agree to her on the spot. Moreover, there are still tens of thousands of forbidden troops in Haishi City, and her combat power is very strong, she may still be lucky, thinking that she can keep Haishi City with these strengths.

Shen Yu and Long Po left together, went out and parted ways, and after a journey, Shen Yu turned around and returned to Jiehai Tower.

When I entered the door, I saw Ming Qin and Tong Jiao leaning on each other, looking intimate. The two turned their heads when they heard the footsteps, and Tong Jiaoru straightened up, revealing a hint of shyness in her eyes.

Shen Yu probably didn't expect that the two didn't talk about the overall situation of victory or defeat, but instead said a lot of innocuous things. Tong Jiaoru and Ming Qin have been separated for a long time, although she has a cold personality and is ashamed to express, she is very strong emotionally.

"I didn't expect that Goshawk and Wei Zhenyi both sent people to surrender to me, but you can help me come up with an idea, which one is better to promise, or neither?"

Shen Yu treats Ming Qin as a sea storm, and is her only son and nephew, and his opinion is naturally very important.

"Then did my aunt decide to surrender?"

"Auntie?"

Tong Jiaoru was stunned, revealing a puzzled look. The sea storm is the illegitimate son of the Mirage King, except for the Mirage King, only Wu Xiuzhu's mother and daughter know, Tong Jiaoru naturally has no way to know.

"Yes, Xiaohai is my nephew, and it doesn't hurt to say it's okay with you. Right?"

The last sentence was said to Ming Qin, Shen Yu saw that the two looked intimate, although it showed that Qin was used to messing with flowers and grass, it could be seen that he was quite fond of Tong Jiaoru, Tong Jiaoru was also his righteous wife, although she was a member of the Mirage Society, Shen Yu would not have any prejudice.

"What do you mean by that?"

Tong Jiaoru was puzzled in her heart, she knew Ming Qin's true identity. I don't know where this aunt Shenyu came from.

"I'll tell you more about this later. ”

Ming Qin blinked, he knew that Tong Jiaoru was not a person who talked much, but he was not afraid that she would leak her identity for no reason.

Tong Jiaoru sighed lightly, and sure enough, she didn't ask any more.

Shen Yu smiled bitterly: "If it weren't for the exhaustion of mountains and rivers, I naturally wouldn't want to submit to the Golden Crow Sect." If you two have any opinions, you may wish to share them. ”

Shen Yu's cultivation is extremely strong, but wisdom is not his strength. And she has a strong personality, and she has a headache about intrigue.

Tong Jiaoru shook her head and said, "Let's listen to what he has to say." ”

Tong Jiaoru's temperament is somewhat similar to Shen Yu, whether Shen Yu joins the Jin Wu Sect has nothing to do with her, Shen Yu is Ming Qin's aunt, she is naturally not good at asserting indiscriminately, if she makes a mistake in the future, she will not be able to escape the blame, she still understands this truth.

Mingqin smiled: "I think my aunt's performance is very right. Now they are in a hurry to surrender, not that we are in a hurry to surrender. Let's talk about the conditions first, it will always take some time to come and go. ”

That's a good point. ”

Shen Yu nodded slightly, and then hesitated: "Goshawk and Wei Zhenyi are both here to surrender, is there anything strange in this, you are here with Luo Yongyan, should you agree to her?"

"Not necessarily. ”

Ming Qin has already understood what Shen Yu meant, she did not prevent Ming Qin from following Luo Yongyan to join the Golden Crow Sect, obviously a cunning rabbit three caves, for the sake of the future of the Shen family, she was unwilling to put all the fate of her wealth on Mianhe.

Now that the court is in ruin, it can be said that her preparations have had an effect. Since the goshawk and Wei Zhenyi came to surrender together, there is nothing wrong with Shenyu agreeing to the goshawk, anyway, Mingqin is already a member of Wei Zhenyi and Luo Yongyan's faction, no matter which faction wins power in the future, the two can protect each other.

Of course, there is a certain risk in doing so, and it can be pleasing to both sides. Fortunately, the relationship between Mingqin and Shenyu is unknown to outsiders, and Luo Yongyan only knows that they have some friendship.

Wouldn't it be more than enough for Shen Yu to choose, Goshawk and Wei Zhenyi are both disciples of Xin Wenli, even if Wei and Luo are unhappy in their hearts, they can't say anything on the surface. After all, factional struggle is something that cannot be put on the table, and with Wei Zhenyi's cleverness, he will never easily show discord with others.

The status of the following three Dharma protectors of Xin Wenli is comparable, and now Huang Ba and Yin Xiao are very close, and the situation is unfavorable to Wei Zhenyi. Although Goshawk is a disciple of Xin Wenli, his identity has not been exposed for many years, and he has no foundation in the sect, but he can be wooed. The two do not necessarily have to take hostile positions.
