"I am here."
A woman's voice, which seemed to be devoid of any emotion but was particularly beautiful, came from outside the video screen.
Then, Holy Lord Qingqiu appeared on the screen.
Women can't hide secrets at all.
Especially Xiang Ning, after spending some time with Qingqiu, he completely trusted this master.
Qingqiu has long been familiar with the special effects of [Chen Yuan Necklace].
"Holy Lord..."
Fan Li was about to speak, but Qingqiu shook his head.
"From now on, just call me Qingqiu."
Fan Li was slightly stunned when he heard this.
What does this mean?
In the past, when he was in a good mood, he would respectfully call the other person 'Holy Lord', and when he was in a depressed mood, he would call him 'Qingqiu'.
I have something to ask for today, it's rare for me to be polite, but she doesn't care?
Qingqiu didn't explain much and just said: "Do you have a problem with me?"
"Ask you a few things."
Fan Li nodded.
"First of all, do you know the whereabouts of the Holy Lord of Arrows in the past two days?"
"Secondly..."
"Wait a moment!"
Qingqiu raised his hand to interrupt Fan Li's inquiry.
"Sorry, Fan Li. According to the laws of the Pure Land, information involving any Holy Lord is confidential. I cannot answer your question."
"master?!"
Xiang Ning was of course on Fan Li's side.
She pulled Qingqiu's sleeves and even used a coquettish tone.
"Just tell Fan Li? Anyway, God knows and earth knows that you know and we know. As long as the three of us don't tell, who will know that you violated the law?"
With Qingqiu's character, he would not quarrel with Xiang Ning.
She just looked at Xiang Ning quietly, like looking at an ignorant child.
"alright!"
Xiang Ning raised his hands in a gesture of surrender, knowing that he could not change his master's mind.
Fan Li seemed to have expected it.
He was not angry, nor did he try to change Qingqiu, but directly asked the second question:
"Lu Bu, do you want to seek refuge in the Pure Land?"
It was just as he expected.
This time, Holy Lord Qingqiu did not refuse to answer.
She frowned in thought, and after a moment she replied: "Today, the Holy Lord of Fate did bring back a man. I don't know his name, but I can ask for you."
"No need."
Fan Li's tone instantly turned cold, but he was not targeting Holy Lord Qingqiu.
He was sure of the answer in his heart: Lu Bu defected.
Moreover, he thus determined the identity of the Arrow Assassin, who was undoubtedly the Holy Lord of Arrows in the Pure Land of Sanskrit Sound!
On this trip back to Yunmeng Mountain, Fanyin Pure Land sent more than one assassin.
There are two assassins!
The Holy Lord of Arrows, the main attack.
The Holy Lord of Fate is hiding behind him and is responsible for tempting Lu Bu to defect in battle!
"The Holy Lord of Fate is Diao Chan, right?" Fan Li suddenly asked.
For a moment, Qingqiu Furui Mubo also had a surprised expression on his face.
The Holy Lord of Fate, the most mysterious existence in the Pure Land of Sanskrit Sound!
She finally controlled her surprise before shaking her head and saying, "Sorry, I can't answer when it comes to the Holy Lord."
However, where does Fan Li need her to answer?
Just looking at Qingqiu's reaction, you can tell that he was right.
Before Dong Zhuo died, he once called out Diao Chan's name.
Apart from Diao Chan, there is probably no other person in the world who can lure Lu Bu into betraying him in battle.
"Fan Li...are you...Da Chu okay?" Xiang Ning asked worriedly.
She was worried about Fan Li, but what she said was 'Da Chu'.
Fan Li shook his head: "Your Majesty, don't worry. With your ministers here, everything will be fine in Dachu."
Da Chu is well.
But what about you?
Xiang Ning couldn't ask, the worry was hidden in his eyes.
…
…………
In the country of Da Chu, Fan Li no longer showed his face.
All matters in the Fan family are ostensibly handled by the eldest brother Fan Zhengming and the third eldest brother Fan Chun.
Fan Li's true form and three clones are still practicing in seclusion in the Dragon Temple.
A piece of information was sent by a spy from Fan's Trading Company lurking in Ming Dynasty.
The information was first sent to Jiangshan Pavilion, then transferred to Dragon Temple through secret channels, and handed over to Fan Li.
In fact, the content of this information is not top secret. It is a personnel change in the Ming Dynasty cabinet.
This person was given special care by Fan Li, and all information related to him would be sent back to Da Chu as soon as possible.
This person is Zhang Juzheng.
"Zhang Juzheng, the left minister of the Ministry of Personnel and a bachelor of Dongge, served the crown prince in Yunmeng Mountain and was promoted to minister of the Ministry of Personnel and a bachelor of Jianji Palace."
"The order of the Ming Dynasty's cabinet is still headed by Yan Song, followed by Xu Jie."
"Zhang Juzheng, who was originally at the bottom, successively surpassed Gao Gong, Li Chunfang and other cabinet ministers and ranked third."
Zhang Juzheng was promoted?
This was expected, and Fan Li was not surprised.
What really surprised Fan Li was the first thing Zhang Juzheng did after being promoted.
He actually reported to Emperor Jiajing that during this trip to Yunmeng Mountain, Fanyin Pure Land took the initiative to contact Prince Wanli and jointly ambush Fan Li, Duke of Jin of Chu.
Holy Lord Yaoguang has made great contributions to the Ming Dynasty and deserves to be commended.
Therefore, Emperor Jiajing sent an envoy with rich gifts to the Pure Land of Sanskrit to reward Yaoguang.
"Zhang Juzheng...good means..." Fan Li couldn't help but praise.
Everyone knows that the Holy Lord Yaoguang has established herself as the empress, but she has not officially founded the country yet.
Moreover, Yaoguang also wooed the four kingdoms of Chu, Wei, Han, and Wu, and had a vague intention of establishing an anti-Ming alliance.
At this time, the Ming Dynasty actually 'rewarded' Yaoguang with great fanfare?
This kind of behavior not only has the effect of destroying the unity of the alliance, but also damages the image of Holy Lord Yaoguang.
Yaoguang was the first holy master of the Pure Land and was recognized as the strongest female cultivator in the world, but she was sent away by Emperor Jiajing by rewarding his subordinates.
She defeated the three emperors Cao, Liu, and Sun in one battle, and the powerful and mysterious image she established seemed to be falling apart!
Fan Li simply suspected that Zhang Juzheng was promoted not because of his merits in protecting Prince Wanli, but because he offered this strategy to please Emperor Jiajing?
Good strategy.
Kill people and kill your heart.
Only one day after this incident, Sanskrit Pure Land responded.
The team of envoys sent by the Ming Dynasty to send gifts were immediately destroyed as soon as they entered the Pure Land of Sanskrit.
There were more than a hundred people in the mission, but no one survived!
Holy Master Yaoguang personally took action, and the strongest general in the Ming Dynasty's envoy, who was only a ninth-level god-transformation realm, was killed by her.
Holy Lord Yaoguang used this to prove to the allies of Chu, Wei, Han, and Wu that the Pure Land and the Ming Dynasty were enemies rather than friends.
Pure Land also sent envoys to formally express its stance to the four countries. Pure Land has never colluded with the Ming Dynasty or betrayed its allies.
Among them, Pure Land’s stance towards Chu was the most solemn.
Fan Mansion received a letter, which was said to be written by the Lord Yaoguang himself.
In the letter, Holy Lord Yaoguang was full of concern and condolences, and he also felt quite self-blame between the lines, like a gentle eldest sister who failed to take good care of the younger brother she truly loved.
Fan Li read this letter three times and came to only one conclusion.
"Sage Lord Jinde is nothing but the number one Confucian and Taoist female cultivator?"
"Holy Lord Yaoguang is more than ten times better than her with just one hand call."
After saying that, Fan Li threw the letter into the brazier and burned it clean.
The Sanskrit Pure Land has expressed its stance. At least on the surface, the four countries cannot accuse the Pure Land of colluding with foreign enemies.
The alliance can still exist.
But the tree wants to be still but the wind doesn't stop, and the movement of the Pure Land of Sanskrit Sound is not over yet.
Pure Land spoke again:
"The alliance of the five countries is united. Holy Lord Yaoguang will personally visit the capitals of Chu, Wei, Han, and Wu."
"Open the altar and preach."
"Preach the supreme miraculous Dharma of the Pure Land and teach the Hongmeng Tao Te Sutra."
