Brother Ruan didn't even know how he got out of Prince De's Mansion.
The night is as dark as ink.
But his heart was even darker.
It was a kind of blackness that was so dark that one couldn't even see his fingers.
Even though he had eyes, he was blind.
King De is full of benevolence, righteousness and morality, and I don't care what my disciples say.
But, is Chen Youde an ordinary person?
If you, King De, don't use connections, but on my own, how can I resist Chen Youde's insidiousness?
Others are in the dark, but I am in the light.
Why!
When he passed by the jungle again.
"Brother Ruan."
Yan Qi jumped down from the tree: "Looking at your high spirits, there must be good news, right? Tell me and listen, it will make me happy. When will King De take care of Chen Youde?"
Brother Ruan was too embarrassed to say a word.
Feeling embarrassed, angry, and helpless.
How can one be so sad?
Yan Qi looked at Brother Ruan with complicated eyes: "When the master you have trusted for many years suddenly shows his green face and fangs, you can't accept it for a while, can you?"
Brother Ruan had a painful expression.
"Why!"
He squatted on the ground for a long time and sighed: "What should I do?"
Yan Qidao: "Don't be embarrassed! As I said before, if King De doesn't help you get rid of Chen Youde and protect your family, then I will do it to get rid of Chen Youde and give you a safe home."
Brother Ruan bit his tongue and looked at Yan Qi: "Why are you so nice to me?"
Yan Qi shrugged: "I have always treated my friends this way. People who know me well know that I am warm-hearted and will help others to the end."
Brother Ruan said: "But, I think it's just an exchange of interests between you and me."
Yan Qidao: "That's because everyone has his own master! But you have to think clearly, is King De worthy of being your master?"
"this……"
Brother Ruan was quite unhappy: worthy? What a fart.
Yan Qi suddenly asked again: "Since King De is not worthy of being your master, is he worthy of being Annan's master?"
This sentence was like a revelation, making Brother Ruan tremble all over and even his heart became cold.
After Yan Qi finished speaking, he laughed and passed away.
Brother Ruan was in a complicated mood and in a daze.
For a moment, it seemed like there was no pursuit.
Brother Ruan's lifelong wish is to make Annan strong and the people have enough food and clothing.
All foreign military use and intrigues are for the sake of our country and the people.
The reason why he was very loyal to King De was partly because of his master-disciple relationship.
On the other hand, I also feel that King De is capable.
He once imagined that if King De became the leader of the country, Annan would be a hundred times stronger.
However, today, his beautiful vision seemed to be shattered.
Broken all over the ground.
If King De plays tricks on someone as loyal as himself, does he care about the people?
Aren't the people like grass and grass?
"What a contradiction."
Brother Ruan is worried about gains and losses, and is entangled in every possible way.
…
The next day!
early morning!
Li Zairen stood outside the yamen of the Ministry of Rites and greeted the two ruthless characters.
These two ruthless characters determined Annan's future.
One is inside, the other is outside.
One is King De, who uses troops abroad, and the other is Li Gao, the national advisor who is in charge of the palace.
Officials from the six departments have arrived.
After a long time.
Dang, Dang, Dang!
There was a burst of gunfire.
"Prince De has arrived."
Officials from the six departments rushed to greet him.
"Meet King De."
All the ministers bowed and showed great respect.
King De was amiable and said: "My lords, there is no need to be polite, please get up quickly."
King De's greetings with his ministers were very lively.
Half of the officials in these six departments are his people.
With him as the leader.
King De was naturally proud.
"The Imperial Guard has arrived."
The eunuch opens the way.
The imperial guards gathered around Li Gao in sedan chairs and entered slowly.
"Meet the Imperial Master."
All the officials rushed to greet him and bowed half-kneeling.
Li Gao stood in front of all the officials. After a long moment, he waved slowly: "No courtesy."
Only then did the ministers get up.
King De frowned when he saw it, feeling a little displeased deep in his heart.
Because the officials' greetings to him, although grand, were nothing more than bows.
However, when the ministers visited Li Gao, they only half-kneeled?
Doesn't this mean that my status is not as high as Li's?
exasperating!
It is well known that Li Gao and King De did not deal with each other.
There was no verbal communication between the two.
The two parties looked at each other for a moment and then looked away.
Li Zairen was a little embarrassed.
He could not afford to offend either King De or Li Gao.
Although Li Zairen was within the six divisions and under the actual control of King Gui De, Li Zairen was now more inclined to Li Gao.
Not just because of Li Gao's respected status.
Rather, it was Li Gao who made the final decision on the Royal Back Garden project.
King De's decision does not count, but Li Gao's decision counts.
If Li Zairen doesn't please Li Gao, then who can he please?
Besides, Li Zairen was not a direct descendant of King De in the first place, but a person from Li Gao's side.
A group of officials entered the hall.
Li Qingqing cleared his throat: "Building the Royal Back Garden is a big deal and cannot be taken lightly. The builders must not only have excellent skills, but also be friendly to Annan. Otherwise, if some tricks are done, wouldn't it affect Annan's national destiny?" "
The ministers repeatedly said yes.
But everyone has a clear mind.
Adding a link to be friendly with Annan is the best policy.
This is very detrimental to Dahua.
Because it is Dahua who is now openly conflicting with Annan.
King De heard this and agreed: "What the Imperial Master said is absolutely true. I would like to express my support here. As long as you are not a craftsman of Dahua, I will support it."
Li Gao glanced at King De with a serious expression: "You can't overturn a whole boat of people with one pole. Although Annan and Dahua are not on good terms, Dahua's construction technology is very rare."
King De immediately responded: "It was Imperial Master Li Gao who said that he would select people who are friendly to Annan to build the garden. Why did he slap himself in the face?"
Li Gaodao: "What King De said is wrong. I am talking about people, not countries. King De, please don't mess around."
King De sneered: "You said I was messy, and I said you don't know right from wrong."
…
The two of them started to argue with each other.
None of the six officials dared to speak.
When gods fight, little devils suffer.
Compared with De Wang and Li Gao, they are really brats.
"Report."
The officer came to report: "Li Shangshu, the construction engineers of the Fifteen Kingdoms have arrived and are waiting outside. Please give me your instructions."
Li Zairen is the host and will preside over the meeting.
He accompanied the smiling face and said: "National Preceptor, King De, let's invite the construction engineer to enter the palace, and King De and the National Preceptor will conduct a detailed assessment. How about that?"
"snort!"
Li Gao and De Wang snorted at the same time.
Li Zairen touched his nose awkwardly: "Please invite the builder into the temple."
Construction engineers from fifteen countries filed in.
There are builders from Japan, Siam, Maya, Luzon and other countries.
The two at the bottom are Yan Qi and Zen Master Prajna of Tianzhu.
Prajna deliberately stood with Yan Qi.
Prajna mocked and threatened Yan Qi: "Just wait, you will be alive in a few days. After I have settled the matter, do you still want to survive? There is no way."
Yan Qi responded simply: "Shut up, bald donkey."
Prajna threatened again: "I will beat your muscles and peel off your skin."
"Shut up, bald donkey."
"I'm going to tear you into pieces."
"Shut up, bald donkey."
"You are not allowed to call me a bald donkey again."
"Shut up, bald donkey."
"Whoaaah!"
Prajna's face turned purple with anger, but there was nothing he could do.
"I pay my respects to the Imperial Master, to the King of De, and to all your lords."
The builder bowed.
"No need to be polite, please take a seat."
Li Gao looked serious and asked everyone to sit down.
He had a straight face, showing no emotion or sorrow.
Li Gao glanced at Prajna and was about to speak.
King De had already rushed towards Prajna with enthusiasm: "Oh, Zen Master Prajna, today I finally see you in person. I admire you very much."
"Come on, come on, Zen Master Prajna is sitting here like me. As soon as we old friends meet, we will have a good chat."
Prajna naturally sat next to King De.
When Li Gao saw it, his face was gloomy and he felt unhappy.
