"Now it's better. The Zhou Kingdom in the Central Plains was coerced. Wu Yue Kingdom took the opportunity to take a bite and seized one-third of the original land of Fujian by the sea. The team led by Li Hongyi killed more than 10,000 Wu Yue soldiers in Runzhou. , and dozens of Wu Yue Kingdom generals, causing Wu Yue Kingdom to be traumatized, do you think some people would be willing?"
Thinking of the news she got during this period, Shen Yanran looked at Xiaoyao Palace in front of her and suddenly felt something was clear at a glance.
"The Tang State lost more than ten states in Jiangbei, and Li Jing personally surrendered. Although who became the emperor had little to do with the people, the people in the Tang State still felt humiliated in their hearts. But the emperor didn't care, these little people, Why are you and the scholar so anxious?" Shen Gongxi looked at Shen Yanran curiously, obviously knowing.
"For the sake of glory, wealth and vanity, Li Jing was thinking of moving south, in case it was unsafe across the river. This is understandable, because anyone who is used to enjoying glory, wealth and wealth will be afraid of death and want to make himself He will live a few more years. But the move south is well-founded and the chosen location is Hongzhou, which is intriguing!"
Shen Yanran thought about what happened back then, and a stern look gradually became apparent in her eyes, and she even raised her lips slightly: "Hongzhou is said to be a land and water location, and it was the center of the Tang Kingdom. It is indeed the best choice from a safety perspective. If If this is the case in the end, then Poyang Lake will become an important military force for protecting the capital!"
"What do you mean by the fairy?" Shen Gongxi was suddenly shocked, thinking of Shen Yanran's previous instructions to him to go to Poyang Lake to find out: "The importance of Poyang Lake is on the agenda. Ships traveling from south to north are not allowed to stay. Such a station is not allowed. The navy is safe and easy to manage. Is this why the fairy attaches great importance to it?"
"Poyang Lake is too big. Normally, the navy patrols and cannot control them one by one. However, the navy has set up checkpoints at the entrance of the river, and other ships cannot pass smoothly. With the navy's control, other things will become more active. They have no evil intentions, why do they do this?" Shen Yanran sneered and glanced at Shen Gongxi.
"It's necessary to cover it up!" Shen Gongxi suddenly had an idea in his mind. The Tang State has always been a resort in the south of the Yangtze River and a famous land of fish and rice in the Central Plains. It has been rich in products since ancient times. Since Yang Wu's occupation, the area to the north of Poyang Lake and the sea has become a prosperous scenic spot. The annual tribute products can be worth more than half of the entire Tang Dynasty.
This is also the main reason why the Tang State is being watched covetously. If the Tang State's military strength had not always been at the forefront, I'm afraid they would have been eaten up long ago. Since Yang Wu was replaced by the Li family, he has vigorously developed the area south of Poyang Lake, hoping to promote the economy and stability of the entire country. Although the results have been slow, they have gradually shown scale.
In the southern area near Poyang Lake, Raozhou is half the state capital. Raozhou's specialty is tea. This important commodity like salt makes the transportation from Raozhou to Poyang Lake very developed. But Shen Gongxi doesn't think it's just for this reason. Obviously there was something in Shen Yanran's words, he suddenly thought of something!
"Two years ago, Guigu Gate was discovered, and it was actually near Longhu Mountain. The Tang Dynasty went to pay homage to Mr. Guigu with great fanfare, but it was rumored that they never had the opportunity to meet the real person. Could it be that Guigu's disciples are too outstanding and are rarely seen by ordinary people in this world? ." Shen Gongxi pondered, obviously catching some idea.
Even though there was only one so-called disciple in Jinling City, known as Mr. Liquor-maker Tan Yihua, many practitioners came to meet him one after another. Even the emperor Li Jing in the palace would often meet up there, but compared with the popularity of the Xiaoyao sect, he still seemed a little weak.
The Xiaoyao Sect was at its peak, and although it was dispensable to Feng Biwei, Geng Xiansheng's dedication and efforts were obvious to all the elders like them. Although Song Qiqiu, the leader of the Southern Tang Dynasty who originally recommended Geng Xiansheng, has passed away and was posthumously named Miao Chou by the emperor, Geng Xiansheng himself, who was recommended by Song Qiqiu, does not seem to be affected.
As one of the most famous Xiaoyao Immortals of the Xiaoyao Sect,
Feng Biwei has firmly believed in her heart. Although all the meridians injured by the demon dragon Tiandi have not recovered, Feng Biwei has benefited a lot from the fusion of alien essence and blood in just one night.
This once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, as a master who has practiced for more than a decade, Feng Biwei would not let it go at this moment. Even if there was obstruction from her old enemy Shen Yanran, Feng Biwei didn't take it to heart. What's more, with the support of Geng Xiansheng and the assistance of Su Hou, another elder in the sect, Feng Biwei wanted to take advantage of this moment to experience the alien essence and blood.
The difference between the Xiaoyao Sect and other sects is that the position of elders in the sect is not usually arranged based on the basic seniority of ordinary sects, but is measured based on the strength of the sect. Just like Feng Biwei and Shen Yiran, as Supreme Elders, their strength is definitely the strongest of Xiaoyao Sect. In terms of status, he is actually the same generation as the elder Su Hou.
As a Taoist cultivator of the Xiaoyao Sect, although it appears to the outside world to be dominated by female cultivators, in fact there are also many male disciples in the sect. Moreover, the Xiaoyao Sect is not a dual cultivation sect in the eyes of others, but it is an indisputable fact that most of the disciples in the sect in recent generations are women.
Some people suspect that the Xiaoyao Sect's unique skills are suitable for female cultivators, but Feng Biwei, one of the top leaders of the Xiaoyao Sect, knows that there is not much difference in the Taoist secrets. In fact, the founder of the Xiaoyao Sect was also a man, but I don’t know when that generation of disciples started. The disciples in the sect were led by female cultivators. At least in recent generations, the leaders were all led by female cultivators.
This Su Hou who came with Geng Xiansheng is one of the male elders with the highest cultivation level among the contemporary elders of Xiaoyao Sect. When he was practicing in the world of martial arts, he also gained a great reputation. At that time, the master of martial arts gave him the nickname "Taoist Jiaomu".
He and I belong to the same generation of cultivators, and their cultivation level is equivalent to that of the current world, which is also a good existence. He is also one of the main deacons and elders of the Xiaoyao Sect in recent years. However, in the past ten years or so, he has been practicing in the sect for a long time and has rarely appeared in the world.
Feng Biwei knew Su Hou very well, and it was rare that she came to greet her with Geng Xiansheng this time. Of course Feng Biwei would not think that he respected her. Although she had been an elder for twenty or thirty years, Su Hou had always respected her superficially.
Because this Taoist Jiaomu was not only an elder in the sect, but also one of the suitors of his rival Shen Yanran back then. Although the reasons were complicated, one can imagine the entanglement in his heart. Since he is from the same school as him, he has always been partial to his relationship with Shen Yanran.
