In the evening, Su Yue was alone in the inn, and even Xuan Xiaosan and Sima Haoran, who had just arrived, went out.
She waited for a long time before Su Yu and Xiao Nan came back.
"Senior, what you are saying is that the Holy Master now controls most of the forces in the Northern Xinjiang court, and is he planning to force a confession this time and make the Northern Xinjiang emperor abdicate to the third prince?"
"Yes on the surface, but this third prince... haha, he is just an incompetent fool. If he really wants to be an emperor, he will be a puppet emperor. King Pingxi is very ambitious and is willing to form an alliance with the Holy Master. Do you think Why?"
"King Pingxi is going to be the person in charge behind the scenes. Will the Holy Master agree?"
"It's just temporary. What they want has never been a country. Giving him Northern Xinjiang temporarily is also for the overall situation later."
"How old is this King Pingxi, and he is still so competitive."
Xiao Nan glanced at her, "Having tasted power and grown up in ambition, who wants to be controlled by others? However, he probably won't live long."
Su Yue raised her beautiful eyebrows, "What? Are you sick? Are you about to die?"
"When I came back, I saw your second senior brother outside Prince Pingxi's Mansion. He said he was going to kill someone for fun at night."
"..." Su Yue was a little speechless, killing someone for fun, she couldn't even accept what she said.
Su Yu frowned, "If King Pingxi dies, the one hundred thousand Pingxi army will be demoralized..."
"There's no need to worry, I have an unexpected gain today." Xiao Nan raised the corners of his lips, "Prince Kang is back."
"Kang Wang?" "Kang Wang?"
Su Yue and Su Yu both spoke out, but the difference was that Su Yue was confused, while Su Yu was surprised.
"Brother knows about this King Kang? Why haven't I heard of him?"
"Isn't it strange that you haven't heard of him? This man has disappeared for nearly ten years. If he hadn't been greedy for power back then, where would King Pingxi be today? The predecessor of the Pingxi Army was under the banner of King Kang. If this man comes back, the one hundred thousand The Pingxi Army doesn’t have to worry.”
"Then there's only one Holy Master left." How about letting the second senior brother directly deal with it once and for all. That would be great.
Xiao Nan seemed to see what she was thinking, "This man must be kept. He should know a lot of things. You can capture him alive."
Su Yue felt a little guilty and touched her nose, but said nothing.
Su Yu tapped Su Yue's head, "Did you send someone to the Holy Master's Mansion?"
"Yes, this holy master must have known that we have arrived in the capital, but he has not taken any action. Brother, what do you think he is thinking?"
"He's busy. Just because he didn't leave the house doesn't mean he didn't do anything." Su Yu sneered.
"I know that there are many people coming in and out of the house, but none of my people can get in."
"There are so many masters in the mansion, and they use formations, so it's really difficult to get close."
"Brother went in?"
"My skills are not necessarily better than those of your men." After all, what he is good at is on the battlefield, but he changed the subject, "But I do know some of the news inside."
Su Yue rolled her eyes angrily. These people like to pretend to be serious, so they can't just say, "Brother, stop showing off."
"Actually, it's nothing special. As you can guess, they are all ministers of the court. Now they all come to the door openly without any scruples. Among them, the third prince is the most diligent in running."
"Oh, that's just cannon fodder."
"What ash?"
Su Yue was stunned, "Oh, it's nothing, you continue."
"I really don't know what these courtiers are thinking. We don't know who will win or lose until the end. As for rushing to show their loyalty? But they are all pillars of the court, and they are all so brainless?"
Xiao Nan put down the cup in his hand, "Northern Xinjiang is different from Daqing. The status of the Holy Master in Northern Xinjiang is no less than that of the emperor. There are even rumors that the previous emperor of Northern Xinjiang wanted to abdicate the throne and let the Holy Master at that time take the initiative. Become the emperor. But he refused, saying that he was devoted to the people and did not seek power or profit. At this time, it was widely spread among the people that the holy masters of the Du Tao had no intention of competing for fame and profit, but only served the people. As time went by, the holy masters came to northern Xinjiang As far as the common people are concerned, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a god.”
Su Yue was a little embarrassed. If this holy master was born in modern times, he would be a PUA expert, and he would know how to confuse people's hearts.
"This holy master is really good at it." Su Yu rubbed his chin.
"Then we have to be careful lately. He may not have the patience anymore, and he may come to you on his own initiative."
"Sister, what exactly do you have in your hands that he wants so much?"
"It's a good thing that comes only once in a century. To him, it may be more important than life."
Su Yu was a little worried. This holy master would definitely not let go of such an important thing easily...
"Someone is coming." Xiao Nan's expression tightened and he pulled out his long sword.
You really can't talk behind people's backs, no, just talk about Cao Cao and Cao Cao. Su Yu also stood up immediately and stood beside Xiao Nan on the left and right beside Su Yue, with an obvious protective posture.
"Princess, we meet again." The Holy Master still wore a mask, but changed into white clothes. He looked like an immortal. No wonder the people in northern Xinjiang regarded him as a god.
"Yes, the national master's poison has been cured? Oh, no, we are in northern Xinjiang. We should call you the holy master." Su Yue raised the corners of her lips.
"Thanks to the princess's mercy, I can live longer."
"Haha, it's just a helpless move." Su Yue did not get up, but still sat there, drinking tea.
"This visitor is a guest. Princess, won't you invite me to have a cup of tea?"
Su Yue chuckled lightly, "Ha, I'm afraid the Holy Master won't be able to drink the inferior tea in the inn."
The Holy Master's expression remained unchanged and he sat directly opposite Su Yue, "If the princess is worth a thousand gold, I can drink it, so of course I can too."
"Haha, Holy Master is really interesting. You came all the way here just to ask for a cup of tea?"
"How could the princess not know the purpose of my visit?"
"Holy Master, it's better to tell the truth. I don't like to guess." Su Yue looked directly at him, her eyes calm.
"Snake Spirit Fruit."
"Oh~ Speaking of which, it's quite strange. There was an old man a while ago who also wanted the Snake Spirit Fruit. I was surprised. Why do you all think I have this thing?"
"Hahaha, princess, we are all smart people, there is no need to be like this." The Saint Master's whole body was exuding an icy chill, and the cup made of ordinary material in the inn was placed on the table, and it shattered instantly.
The plain-looking man behind him suddenly became powerful, and the aura around him was intimidating.
Su Yue and the others were shocked at such a terrifying momentum. They didn't expect that the Saint Master would have such a master beside him. In addition, his ability is not weak, so this is really a bit tricky.
"I didn't expect that the ghost Taoist who had disappeared for twenty years would meet here."
The hoarse and deep voice made everyone look, and a man in strange clothes appeared in front of them, followed by a woman in red.
