After Du Yanbin reminded him, Ah Er realized what a stupid thing he had just said. He did not consider Wang Zhongsi's position at all. Originally, Wang Zhongsi concealed his identity for Ye Qingcheng and did not report the matter to Li Longji. As for the solution, once Li Longji knows Ye Qingcheng's identity, he will first know that Wang Zhongsi is covering up for him. And if Wang Zhongsi covers up for Ye Qingcheng again and again, then the trust he had finally gained from Li Longji will completely collapse and his future will be ruined.
This made him quickly turn around, kneel down and apologize to Wang Zhongsi: "Wang Shuai, it was my lack of consideration."
"No, it's not your fault." Wang Zhongsi waved his hand, his eyes full of loneliness. He looked straight at the tent door where Ye Qingcheng disappeared. His feet never stepped out. It seemed that compared with his friends , after all, power and status are more important. He couldn't help but sigh. Isn't this the case in the whole world? He just wanted to lead more Tang troops and expand the territory of the Tang Dynasty, just like his predecessors during the Taizong period, but the current situation was no different than before. If he didn't abandon Ye Qingcheng, he would never be able to climb to a higher position.
Moreover, when he saw Ye Qingcheng for the first time, didn't he already convince himself to make good use of this guy and just treat him as an item? Even though he is famous, he cannot avoid such a choice, but he does not regret it. If it is for the Tang Dynasty and for the millions of people of the Tang Dynasty, he is willing to bear the reputation of betraying his friends. I believe Ye Qingcheng can understand it. After all, they are the same kind of people. If not for this, how could he have gained such a great reputation during Ye Sanlang's period that he was feared by Li Longji, but it is a pity that Ye Sanlang cannot do it. Datang has reached the point where Wang Zhongsi is like him, otherwise he would be willing to sacrifice himself to achieve Ye Qingcheng.
Not far from Wang Zhongsi's handsome tent, Ye Qingcheng, who was walking on the road, suddenly stopped and looked back at the handsome tent on the hill for a few times. His eyes were also filled with loneliness. Then he turned back, Slowly disappeared on this road.
After all, he and Wang Zhongsi only had a few interactions in the past, and they were just like each other. They were not brothers in life and death. Although after being reborn, he felt as if he had been friends from another life, so he cherished them even more, but now it seems But the current situation did not allow him to do so.
In the world of cultivation, only the size of the magical power is important. If you have a big magical power, then everything you say is right. If you have a weak magical power, you are destined to be bullied. Therefore, the intrigues in the world of cultivation are even more serious than in the mortal world. Many times worse. Even a brother cannot be too trusting. Maybe the other person will kill you secretly for a valuable treasure. This is a normal thing in the world of cultivation. If he, Ye Qingcheng, wants to embark on this path in the future, he must learn to be ruthless and cold-blooded, otherwise he is destined to suffer losses in the future. This is what Huan Chenyu said. Of course he knows that this is not a lie to him, but he does not know how to do it. How can you be ruthless, how can you be cold-blooded?
Perhaps, breaking up with these former friends of Ye Sanlang one by one is a good start, but I don't know if he can make up his mind, so he should take his time. He is not good at doing this in the first place, and he will obey everything. God willing.

On the other side, in the imperial study room of Daming Palace in Chang'an, it was exactly as Ni Fuguo expected. Li Longji, who had seldom come to the imperial study room recently, was livid and tapping the desk in front of him impatiently. Next to him, Gao Lishi and a group of eunuchs, both large and small, lowered their heads, not daring to take a breath, for fear of offending the emperor and being dragged out and beaten with a stick.
There are three pieces of paper on this desk at the moment, recording three faces and three people's information respectively. The faces of the two people on the right look very strange, and there is not much information, but the person on the far left, Gao Lishi, has an impression. Very profound. Because it was this guy with a bad face in front of him who allowed the young man to sit in the high position of Yushi Zhongcheng at a young age. It was also this guy who forced the promising young man to death. No, although it is now confirmed that he was just He faked his death, but he knew Li Longji too well, and he would definitely not let Ye Sanlang go. No, it was time to change his name to Ye Qingcheng now.
But things are obviously still turning around. At least Li Longji did not directly order against Ye Qingcheng, but fell into deep thought, which shows that he is still hesitating. Now Ye Qingcheng is still valuable, and it is precisely because of him and the two people who are cultivating. With a powerful presence in the world, the Tang army was able to win the Battle of Sangganhe with almost no casualties, and it ended so quickly, which obviously surprised Li Longji. In his expectation, because he did not know the existence of Ye Qingcheng, although he had expected He expected to win, but he didn't expect it to be such a complete victory. Especially when he knew that it was because Ye Qingcheng burned Xicang in advance and destroyed the logistics of the Xi Qi coalition forces, so that they had to rush to launch a night attack, leading to the beginning of the final battle, his expression was wonderful. Gao Lishi could see that Li Longji obviously regretted it. If he didn't have that kind of intention, there would definitely be one more general in the Tang army who was devoted to the Tang Dynasty. But if that's the case, he is no longer Li Longji. In comparison, he may choose to give up Ye Qingcheng's use value in order to eliminate future threats. However, his two subordinates are a bit tricky. Sending mortal assassins there would be no match for the three of them, especially after knowing the strength of the three of them from the reports of the spies stationed in the Tang Army's camp, and if the cultivators worshiped by Li Longji were allowed to go, Then the deities of those two people can take action. With the cultivation base and magical power of those two people, it will be useless no matter how many cultivators are sent there.
So the problem now is that Li Longji finally realized that no matter how much he tried, he couldn't touch a hair of Ye Qingcheng. This made him extremely unhappy as the emperor of the Tang Dynasty. When did he even kill a kid? It took a lot of effort.
Gao Lishi himself had nothing against Ye Qingcheng. Especially when he knew that Ye Qingcheng committed suicide in Yizhou, he felt that the Tang Dynasty might have lost a future pillar of the country. But since he is still alive now, for the people , that’s a good thing, and Li Longji can’t kill him yet, which is also good news. Perhaps, after slowly calming down, Li Longji would choose to continue using him after realizing that he really couldn't do anything to Ye Qingcheng.
