The night is as cold as water.
In the inner courtyard of Li Garden, Taotao heard the young master's assertion and couldn't hide the excitement in her heart. She asked in disbelief, "Dashang has so many top experts, can't it be done?"
"The outcome of a war is never decided by gods."
Li Ziye explained unhurriedly, "We have martial arts experts, and the Eight Divisions of Mobei are also not lacking. Some trump cards will not be used until necessary. Again, don't underestimate the world. , as long as it is not a powerful person who has broken through the five realms, there will definitely be a way to deal with it. Even if there is a gap in the number of martial arts experts in Mobei and the Central Plains, it is not enough to change the trend of a large-scale war. What's more, there is still a scholar in the Western Regions and a large number of martial arts masters.”
"What about Tai Shang?" Taotao asked solemnly.
"Tai Shang should not interfere in this war."
Li Ziye replied, "What Taishang cares about is the calamity of winter. As for whether the person sitting on the throne is a person from Great Shang or a person from Mobei, he basically doesn't care. Taishang originated from the Taoist sect. Thousands of years ago, the Taoist sect The inheritance is spread all over the world, and there is not much difference between the Central Plains, Mobei, and even Nanling as far as Taishang is concerned."
"If it is true as the young master said, the Confucian sect will not interfere." Taotao said in a condensed voice.
"Um."
Li Ziye nodded and responded, "Confucianism is the same as the Taishang. What they care about is the rise and fall of the world, not the rotation of dynasties. If the Great Shang dies, at most it will only be a change of dynasty. It makes no difference who is in charge of the world."
"It's a realm that is hard to understand." Taotao sighed.
"The height of a sage is beyond our reach."
Li Ziye responded calmly, "They stand too high and won't interfere in human affairs easily. In fact, if Tai Shang dared to attack the human race as a Netherworld person, the first person to stop him would be the Confucian leader. The war has been going on till now. , in fact, there are not many cards that Dashang can play. In the national war of different races, if the enemy that Dashang faces today is a demon race or a god, then there must be too many helping hands behind Dashang, such as Taishang, Confucianism, etc. There are still us, but if the opponent is the Eight Divisions of Mobei, just leave it to fate."
"Slave seems to understand a little bit."
After hearing the explanation of the young master in front of her, Taotao understood clearly and said, "The final factor that determines the ownership of this world will only be the battle of mortals, not the battle of gods."
"good."
Li Ziye nodded and said, "The peace of Great Shang can only be achieved by the soldiers at the border and within the territory, instead of relying on immortal figures such as Tai Shang and Confucian leaders. Even those powerful people in the Five Realms can't decide anything. If you have it, others will have it too." , Mobei and the Western Regions combined may not be as good as the Central Plains."
"Young Master, I have one last question."
Taotao asked seriously, "How will the Li family fare in this war?"
"Do your best."
Li Ziye said softly, "As a commoner king, as a king of Wu, we naturally have to do our best to protect the people of the great merchants. As businessmen, our only task is to make a choice that is more beneficial to ourselves. Different identities have different responsibilities." .”
"My slave understands." Taotao nodded and responded.
What the young master means is that the Commoner King is his last gift to Dashang. Whether he wants it or not is up to Dashang himself.
Just as the two were talking.
In the courtyard, the cold moon was shining brightly, and two figures appeared out of thin air. They were Tian Zhique and Xuan Ming.
Returning to his old place, Xuan Ming saw the young figure in the room in front of him, but his mood was completely different.
As the killer of Yanyu Tower, Xuan Ming knew how terrifying Yanyu Tower was, but he also heard about the power of the Li family.
Who would have thought that Yanyulou and the Li family were both from the young man in the room.
"Young Master."
Tian Zhique led Xuan Ming into the room and bowed respectfully.
"It's really fast."
Li Ziye looked at the two people in the room and said with a smile, "As expected of a shadow killer, his efficiency is unparalleled."
"Young Master is overly praised." Tian Zhique responded humbly.
"Xuan Ming."
Li Ziye focused his attention on Xuan Ming and said, "This is not the first time we have met, so you don't need to introduce yourself, right?"
"Young Master."
Xuan Ming didn't dare to ask Da Da, so he also bowed and called out.
"The fact that you followed Tianzhique here means that you are willing to be loyal to the Li family?" Li Ziye asked calmly.
"Tian Zhique said that I am loyal to the Li family. Apart from loyalty, I don't need to pay anything more."
Xuan Ming asked seriously, "I want to confirm with the young master in person, is this true?"
"That's right."
Li Ziye nodded and said, "I only want your loyalty. Other than that, everything is the same as before. The reward for the task is a penny, and you can also get additional training resources from the Li family."
"This is a good condition."
Xuan Ming heard the young man in front of him admit it himself, and without any further hesitation, he bowed respectfully and said, "My subordinate, Xuan Ming, has met the young master!"
"There are no outsiders here, so etiquette is waived. Tian Zhique should have told you about the Li family's rules."
Li Ziye reminded calmly, "The Li family doesn't have many rules. The biggest rule is not to interfere in other people's affairs. The most unbreakable rule is not to betray the collective interests of the Li family. Do you understand?"
"I understand." Xuan Ming responded respectfully.
"You are new to the Li family. If you don't understand anything, you can ask Tianzhique."
Li Ziye smiled and warned, "He joined the Li family two years before you. He is very knowledgeable in flattering and bargaining. You can learn from it. It will come in handy."
Hearing this, Xuan Ming glanced at Tian Zhique beside him in surprise, and responded again, "Yes!"
This guy can still flatter you?
On the side, Tian Zhique noticed someone's gaze and pretended not to see it. He looked at his nose and heart without squinting.
What happened to the flattery? Except for the eldest lady and the second young master, no one in the Li family has ever flattered the young master.
"Okay, let's go down first and let Tianzhique take you around to get familiar with it." Li Ziye waved his hand casually and said.
"My subordinates resign."
Xuan Ming and Tian Zhique bowed together and then turned and left.
After the two left the room, they walked straight out of the inner courtyard. Xuan Ming looked at the people beside him and couldn't help but ask, "Tian Zhique, I think the young master is very kind, how can he be as scary as you said."
"It's all pretend."
Tian Zhique said with a smile, "You will know when you have more contact with the young master. The power of others is superficial, but the terror of the young master is silent. Anyway, don't mess with him. The most important thing is, don’t have any objections, and if you have anything to do, just tell the young master directly."
As soon as he finished speaking, Tian Zhique paused and continued, "Actually, the young master is quite a reasonable person. He will try his best to give you what you want. However, if you don't say anything, but talk to him If you play tricks, you will be dead. Believe me, in the Li family, everyone has a division of labor, and the young master’s responsibility is to make sure that those who play tricks with the Li family die without a burial place!"
