Su Ziji nodded casually and passed by him.
Seeing Bi Xin standing not far away with a smile on his face and talking to Su Ziji in a low voice, Xu Wei stood there and slowly clenched his fists, but felt timid in his heart.
When King Dai surrendered directly to the Yulin Guards, he was just a duke. There were many princes and counts in the capital, so it was not that unusual. Xu Weicai relied on his high family background and being the Yulin Guards to command the affairs, as well as his own "investment". "The King of Qi did not take the Duke of that day seriously.
Because Xu Wei didn't think that Duke Dai had a chance to reach the top. Duke Dai was among the people, and his relationship with the emperor was like strangers, just because of blood ties.
Although the prince died before he was removed, the cause of his death was closely related to the emperor. Wasn't there any grudges and concerns?
Even if the Duke now meets with the emperor twice a month to communicate with him, the time is still short.
It took several years for the three kings of Qi, Shu and Lu to gradually climb up the ranks. Even if Duke Dai wanted to cultivate feelings, how long had it been since then?
Hey! The result was a slap in the face!
Xu Wei felt depressed when he thought that he had to kneel down and worship this man. He also felt an indescribable jealousy. He used to be proud of his origin, but now that he thought about it, what status could be more valuable? A child of the royal family?
"No, now is not the time for me to be discouraged. What if I become the emperor's grandson and become the acting king? Unless I can really ascend to that position, no matter which prince takes the throne in the future, the prince's son will not end well. On the other hand, if I can If you gain the merit of being a slave to the dragon in this fight for the right to inherit the throne, you will always have the opportunity to trample the King under your feet!"
Behind the crowd, Luo Jiang knelt down and bowed to the newly elected king. He slowly stood up and followed the men in the crowd with his eyes, wondering why such a thing happened.
"Duke Dai has become the king. Is it possible that the emperor is very satisfied with him? Then why did he send me here? Or is it because the emperor is satisfied with the king that he sent me here?"
As soon as this idea came out, I couldn't stand it anymore.
Yufu
Yu Qianzhi, who had just left the alchemy room, felt that the dusk was heavy, but he saw that the sky had not yet darkened, and lanterns had been lit in the house, with the faint wind and rain blowing, like a picture scroll.
"It's the time for the imperial examination again. The spring scenery is so picturesque that you might be able to write a poem." Yu Qianzhi was about to take a hot shower and change clothes when the boy trotted in.
"The Duke of Dai Guo made him the king? When did it happen?" Before he could change out of his robe, he heard the report from the servant, and his expression changed immediately upon hearing it.
He only stayed in the alchemy room for half a day and missed such important news?
Yu Qianzhi immediately changed his expression and stared at the courtyard with gloomy eyes. The poetic feeling just now was gone. He was silent for a long time before he woke up.
"Back then, Ji Zizong came with a letter. Not only did I not help him, I also gave him a blow. Now that he has been crowned king, if he remembers this, it is nothing. If he investigates me deeply..."
Yu Qianzhi shuddered when he thought about what would happen to him if this acting king really had a chance to ascend to Dabao.
At that point, no one, let alone the sect, can save him.
Thinking of this, Yu Qianzhi moved and directly ordered the young man: "Go to Prince Lu's Mansion now and deliver a message to Gui Junxi for me, saying, the moon is on the willow tops, and the appointment is in the yellow field. Remember, don't Someone discovers your identity."
The boy didn't understand what this sentence meant, but seeing that his master was cautious, he immediately responded and left.
Before I even left the courtyard, I was stopped again: "Wait a minute!"
The boy turned around and saw his master frowning slightly, looking deeply at the courtyard, and after a long time he said: "Forget it, there's no need to go."
"master?"
"Go and do your business, let's forget about this!" Yu Qianzhi waved his hand and chased the people away. After the boy retreated, he breathed out softly, feeling a little scared.
"It's not appropriate to panic about this matter. If you move at this time, something could easily happen."
Although he was thinking this, the uneasiness in his heart made him restless in the house. After wandering back and forth for a while, Yu Qianzhi called out again: "Prepare the car, I want to go out!"
After the oxcart was ready, Yu Qianzhi said "Go to Jingping to watch" and stopped talking.
The slightly swaying bullock cart made Yu Qianzhi, who was always known for his peaceful mood and good health, couldn't help but look anxious.
It was no small matter for the Duke of Dai to confer the title of King. It could even affect the layout of himself and his successors for many years. Yu Qianzhi really couldn't accept the fear that twenty years of hard work would be wasted all at once.
At this juncture, it was obviously impossible to meet one of his own people, but it was obviously not possible to just sit there and watch the king climb higher and higher. Yu Qianzhi thought of one person, Liu Zhan.
"Liu Zhan is a true member of the Yin Guan sect with a strong personality. Together with his sect, he is fighting to the death with the demon clan and is even more interested in it. With the attitude of the Yin Guan sect, if he is allowed to believe that the king of Dai has gained power through the luck of the demons, So soon, Liu Zhan will be able to join forces with me."
Jingping Temple is an inconspicuous one among the many Taoist temples in Beijing. When Yu Qianzhi arrived, Liu Zhan was directing the Taoists here to do things. Hearing that Yu Qianzhi had arrived, he couldn't help but be startled.
"Yu Qianzhi?"
Thinking that he had come to the door in person, or that he might have clues to hunt down the big demon, Liu Zhan gave the Taoist boy in front of him a few words, then strode out and went to greet him at the door.
When the two met, Liu Zhan was a little surprised at Yu Qianzhi's expression: "Master Yu, what's wrong with you?"
Seeing that Liu Zhan looked good, Yu Qianzhi asked instead, "Is Master Liu busy?"
There was nothing that could not be said. Liu Zhan responded directly: "The emperor has recently increased his support for the Taoist temples of the Yin Guan sect. He appointed me to send three people as herb collectors to go to the capital to collect herbs, and the counties and counties along the way will provide cooperation."
Many of the so-called medicines are organs from demons. Of course, this "collection" is not easy, and time is tight, so this time a lot of power is given.
"Not only that, the big demon is watching outside the capital, and in order to protect the capital, he has also given the Taoist temple new powers."
Having said this, Liu Zhan looked at Yu Qianzhi: "This kind of grace should not only be for the Yin Guan sect, but you should also have it, right?"
Yu Qianzhi sighed: "Even so, the situation is not optimistic. Dai Guogong has made Dai Wang today, do you know the news?"
I thought Liu Zhan didn't know, but he didn't expect his reaction to be dull: "I've heard about it."
Yu Qianzhi said: "Don't you think that the situation in the capital has changed too fast recently? Especially when many things happened, the king was the one who benefited in the end?"
Liu Zhan's expression didn't change at all, and he still didn't care much: "Kings are promoted quickly, but in all dynasties, there are always people who are destined to be destined, so it's not worth making a fuss about."
"You and I both know that the King has no control over these matters."
"It is true that King Dai cannot control these things, but do you think that King Dai has received these benefits only because of destiny?"
Yu Qianzhi sneered gloomily: "Did you know that there are two foxes that have become spirits in the Prince Dai's palace? In my opinion, the strange promotion of Prince Dai may not be due to destiny, but may be caused by evil luck. Ji!"
