In the dark room, there were some fights and several conversations.
The two people still stood on each side, wary of each other.
Li Xuan gently swung the long sword in her hand, and a crisp sword cry sounded in the room.
"Have you ever looked for the King of Yue?" Li Xuan suddenly said, staring at Chen Zhong.
The Qian family were relatives of the Chen Dynasty back then, and the daughter of the Qian family was now the concubine of the King of Yue. It would be strange for people from the Tianyin Sect to give up on this line.
"What do you think?" Chen Zhong looked at Li Xuan with a half-smile, a determined look on his face.
The imperial court was becoming more and more harsh on the clan kings, and anyone who cared about it would be dissatisfied, especially the King of Yue.
Li Xuan shook his head firmly at this time and said with cold eyes: "The King of Yue will not agree to you. Even if you are just a small temptation, he will reject you without hesitation. He is the son of Emperor Taizong and is now a saint. My younger brother, his mother, Princess Yue, was the cousin of the Queen of Heaven, but she died indirectly at the hands of the Queen of Heaven. He knew how cruel this place was, so he should have sternly refused to you."
Speaking of this, Li Xuan's lips showed a slight sneer: "No one in the Li family knows them better than this king... With the temper of the King of Yue, no matter who mentions this matter to him, he will be strangled immediately. "
As soon as Li Xuan finished speaking, Chen Zhong immediately fell silent across from him.
He was right.
However, even though this is the case, Chen Zhong may not know the reason more clearly than Li Xuan.
The reason why the King of Yue rejected the Tianyin Sect was not because the Tianyin Sect was not strong enough, nor because the Tianyin Sect was not powerful enough. The actual situation was probably just the opposite.
Because it was really because the Tianyin Sect was too strong and too powerful that the King of Yue was worried that he would not be able to control it.
Although Tianyin Sect has deliberately kept a low profile, in the eyes of some people, it is still as bright as a candle in the darkness.
The King of Yue is already conspicuous enough. If he is connected with the Tianyin Sect again, he will definitely die.
This kind of thing, if even a little bit of news is revealed, it will be a dead end.
Emperor Taizong had a total of fourteen sons, but except for one who died young, all the others, except Emperor Li Zhi, died poorly in the end.
Under such circumstances, how could the King of Yue dare to collude with a discerning cult like the Tianyin Sect?
Isn't he afraid of death?
A sneer flashed deep in Li Xuan's eyes. Even the King of Yue could understand this kind of thing, how could Li Xuan not understand it.
"The King of Yue was scared out of his wits. King Nanchang, how about you?" Chen Zhong stared at Li Xuan.
The reason why he came to see Li Xuan was that in addition to Li Xuan's ability, he was also the current king of the county.
He and the emperor were cousins, which was enough for the emperor to relax his guard and also give him a chance to spy on the throne.
There was a hint of disdain at the corner of Li Xuan's mouth, and the meaning of his words was clearly visible.
Chen Zhong smiled, but then his expression turned serious.
Looking at Li Xuan, Chen Zhong said: "If we cooperate, our religion will do its best to support the prince in his fight for that position... The prince should know how much potential our religion has in the government and the public. As long as we relax a little, Countless believers will immediately come to support the prince."
"Believer!" Li Xuan chuckled disdainfully. He looked at Chen Zhong and said, "In this world, the most useful people are actually believers, and the most useless people are also believers."
The development of Tianyin Sect has always been based on the lower class slaves, bad people, people living in poverty, and workers.
Among these people, there will indeed be one or two geniuses, but the overall educational level of their group is very low.
It's okay to let them do some simple actions, or even start a rebellion.
But if they become Li Xuan's subordinates, then it won't be long before Li Xuan's thoughts will be completely exposed.
Even death can't hide it.
"It turns out it was all empty talk." Li Xuan shook her head, looked at Chen Zhong, and said, "No wonder no one likes you."
A sneer appeared at the corner of Li Xuan's mouth, and Chen Zhong's face immediately darkened across from him.
"As long as the King of Nanchang is willing to let our people out, the true power of my teaching will soon be fully revealed in front of the King of Nanchang." Chen Zhong stared at Li Xuan.
The picture is poor and the dagger can be seen.
Li Xuan shook her head and said in disappointment, "If you have the ability, just come and get it yourself. Don't deceive others with such endless lies."
Li Xuan glanced towards the window, and then her expression became silent.
"Lie?" Chen Zhong glanced at the window, but there was nothing there.
There was no movement in the entire courtyard. Everyone in the entire courtyard was restrained by him. Unless someone came from outside, it was impossible for anyone to help Li Xuan now.
Chen Zhong looked at Li Xuan again and asked with a puzzled expression: "What lie did you tell me?"
"The supreme position is something that everyone wants and everyone is watching. The King of Yue is indeed timid. He is indeed frightened by others. That is because he knows that such a thing is too risky, and even if someone really has the intention , which also requires careful management over a long period of time.”
Li Xuan raised her eyebrows and looked at Chen Zhong, sneered and said, "Do you think your Tianyin Sect still has this time now?"
"You can see it!" Chen Zhong's face suddenly darkened. The high-spirited aura he had before completely disappeared at this time, and his whole person became filled with a chilling air.
"The Tianyin Sect is about to start an uprising. Once they invade Wuzhou, they will fight non-stop to Yuezhou, Hangzhou, Huzhou, Suzhou, and even go straight to Yangzhou. Such a big change is imminent. Even if you have made a promise to this king, what are you doing? There is no time to fulfill it, why is it so difficult, why would you still give the entire Tianyin Sect to me?" Li Xuan smiled coldly.
"What if we are willing?" Chen Zhong suddenly raised his head and stared at Li Xuan.
Li Xuan was stunned for a moment, what were these words.
"If the King of Nanchang is willing to take the lead and reprimand the Demon Queen for murdering her own son, and the governors of Muzhou and Wuzhou will also agree, then our religion is willing to assist the King of Nanchang with all our strength to go north to Hangzhou, capture Luoyang, and then ascend to the throne." Chen Zhong's expression suddenly changed. He became extremely sincere.
"Is this king so brainless?" Li Xuan felt ridiculous for a while, looked at Chen Zhong, and said directly: "Shi Xu, the governor of Muzhou, is just a cover. If this king's prediction is correct, in the future, Shi Xu will Pass the position to the general manager of Wen Da. No matter whether he is a famous person or adopted as an adopted son, Shi Xu will always be a puppet. Why do you think one puppet is not enough and insist on getting two puppets?"
Li Xuan thought quickly in her heart, something was wrong with the situation.
It seemed that something key flashed through his mind, but he didn't grasp it properly.
What exactly is that.
"Shi Jishi has never been a puppet. He will be my servant in the new dynasty. As for the position of emperor of the new dynasty, he cannot be the King of Nanchang." Chen Zhong looked sincere again.
The corners of Li Xuan's mouth turned up slightly, and she even couldn't help laughing: "Hahaha...hahaha..."
"Why are you laughing? Does it mean that the position of emperor is not enough to satisfy you?" Chen Zhong had a trace of confusion on his face.
"New dynasty, you said it is a new dynasty, what does all this have to do with me." Li Xuan directly exposed the flaw in Chen Zhong's words with one sentence.
Li Xuan was the current king of the county. Even if he were to ascend to the throne, he would still ascend to the position of Emperor of the Tang Dynasty.
The throne of the new dynasty, what is that?
Chen Zhong immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing.
This is not his fault, because they have always aimed to establish a new dynasty as their ultimate goal.
As for recommending someone to inherit the current throne, they didn't even think about it, and everything they said was used to lie.
"We may not succeed, but at least we can conquer the river. With the full support of our religion, the prince has a great chance of capturing the artifact of the Tang Dynasty due to the turbulent situation." Chen Zhong slowly changed his mind.
"You are not a suitable lobbyist." Li Xuan shook her head gently, then looked at Chen Zhong and said, "You yourself know a lot about a lot of things, but now you rush out rashly."
After a short pause, Li Xuan followed up and said: "First, the government and the public have long concluded that the emperor's death due to filial piety has been decided; second, I have no interest in that position. You should know that although His Majesty is ill, the Crown Prince is wise. , and with the Queen of Heaven protecting you, no one has a chance; thirdly, in this matter, your abilities in the world are really useless."
Li Xuan looked at Chen Zhong with a vague smile on her face.
Chen Zhong's face immediately darkened.
The subtext in Li Xuan's words was that he looked down on the strength of the Tianyin Sect, both covertly and covertly.
Even if we look at it carefully, Li Xuan is saying that Tianyin Sect can't even take Meiling Pass now, so how can we expect them to exert their strength in other places.
"Then you and I want to take a gamble. If our sect can break through Meiling Pass, the King of Nanchang will join our sect. If we can't break through Meiling Pass, we will drop everything and let it be dealt with." Chen Zhong stared. Li Xuan spoke very clearly, word for word.
"Haha... not enough." Li Xuan's voice suddenly changed. She looked at Chen Zhong and said coldly: "You can't break through Meiling Pass. Even if you are left to your own devices, what use will it have to this king? The madness of Tianyin's disciples He Han is not afraid of death, I have heard it from others, even if you are left to my own devices, I cannot kill you...it turns out you have such a wishful thinking."
Li Xuan raised her head sharply, looked at Chen Zhong, and frowned: "You want a group of burdens to hold me back."
Chen Zhong's eyes suddenly flashed with shock, and then he said calmly: "The old slave just gave the King of Nanchang the credit of capturing thousands of religious bandits alive. This is a greater achievement than directly slaughtering thousands of people!"
"Not enough!" Li Xuan lowered her eyebrows, looked at the blade in her hand, and said softly: "If you can't come up with more chips, then I can only ask you to leave temporarily."
"King Nanchang, doesn't he think that the old slave's appearance here today is a bargaining chip in itself?" Chen Zhong's voice was very soft, but it was like a thunder.
"Huh?" Li Xuan raised her head slightly, with a trace of confusion on her face.
"What would the emperor think if he knew you were meeting in private?" Chen Zhong's lips were filled with a hint of cruelty.
"Is that all?" Li Xuan's face calmed down. He turned to look at the window silently and said softly: "This kind of threat that even a child is not afraid of can't hurt anyone. Believe it or not, tomorrow, it will be There will be more news about your secret meetings with the king, the king's governor, Yuan's governor, Duan Dudu, and even the Yue king and the prince..."
Chen Zhong's eyes tightened and he said immediately: "The King of Nanchang is very good at muddying the water."
"So, if you want to leave a way out, you should know how to choose." Li Xuan stared at Chen Zhong gently.
At this glance, Chen Zhong's face immediately darkened.
