"Senior Brother Lai had better tell Zi Ling to stay in Xiyun Prefecture with peace of mind and ignore Wu Prefecture's affairs." Gongsun Yun said calmly.
"It seems you don't know how to ask anymore?" Lai Yinuan said.
"Why should I ask? My duty is only to supervise. The struggle for power in the world is not my responsibility." Gongsun Yun said.
When Lai Yinuan heard this, there was a hint of ridicule in the corner of his mouth, and he said lightly: "I understand. You can go back and ask the judge of Xiyun Prefecture to help me pass a message to him. Just say that it was me who said it, and let him ignore Wu Prefecture. thing."
"Okay!" Gongsun Yun nodded, and then slowly closed his eyes.
Lai Yinuan turned to look at Wuzhou again and shook his head. His eyes were full of the loneliness and sadness of a hero in his twilight years.
In the past, he could have spoken on this matter, but if he spoke any more now, he would be just asking for trouble and humiliation.
Prince's Mansion.
"Bang!" The sandalwood case that had been replaced not long ago was beaten to pieces by the prince's palm.
"They're all useless. It's in vain that I spent so much money on this, and not even one of them came out alive!" The prince said with an ashen face.
"Yes, this time is really unexpected! I thought I could bring out some Lei Xun stones, but in the end not even one came out alive." The scribe in green shook his head and said with a look of helplessness on his face.
"How is the situation of the four major sects?" the prince asked again.
"Except for the Xuanjian Sect, which is in good condition, the others are in poor condition." The scribe in Tsing Yi then gave an overview of the situation of the four major sects.
"This is tricky. If their harvest is better, I can still find a way to help my husband get some back, but now this situation may be more difficult." The prince said.
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness. Now that the matter has come to this point, even if His Highness comes forward, what they will get out will only be small pieces of Lei Xun stone, which will have limited effect on Wei Chen. Fortunately, Wei Chen has been cultivated by His Highness over the years and has the hope of tempering the thunder. The success is not small, just give it a try." said the Tsing Yi scribe.
"That's all we can do now." The prince said helplessly.
As soon as the prince finished speaking, a handsome eunuch walked in.
"Your Highness, I just received the news that Qin Jian Mei Que Lei failed." The eunuch reported.
The scholar in Tsing Yi was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then showed a complicated expression.
When the prince heard this, he looked happy and said: "Okay, this old witch is finally no longer in the way. I can finally take care of the Qin family and go to Qinshan Longtan to explore."
"Your Highness had better wait for Wei Chen to temper his thunder before taking action to deal with the Qin family. Firstly, if there is any accident, Wei Chen can help suppress it; secondly, with Wei Chen here, it is also convenient for Your Highness to suppress the Qin family and deter the military. All forces in the state should take the initiative to surrender to His Highness." The Tsing Yi scribe suggested.
"Sir, you are right. Once you break through and become a mysterious master, with you by my side, even if you don't take action, it will be enough to scare all parties." The prince nodded after hearing this, and then said: "Sir, when are you going to trigger the thunder? Tempering body?"
"Since there is no help from Lei Xun Stone, there is no point in delaying it any longer. So Wei Chen decided to adjust his condition this month, and then use thunder to temper his body." said the Tsing Yi scribe.
"That's fine." The prince nodded and said, "The Qin family is a prominent family in Wuzhou. Even though it has declined a lot in recent years, it is still very powerful in Wuzhou. There are also some intricate forces and relationships in the court and various places. Even though I am noble, As a prince, you can’t suppress someone just because you want to. You still have to spend some time to find some evidence to substantiate the crime, and you also have to secretly mobilize all parties in advance.”
…
Wuzhou, Qin family meeting hall.
The head of the Qin family, Qin Zaixin, his father Qin Longyuan, Qin Longzhen who was in charge of the Scripture Collection Pavilion, Qin Zitang who was supposed to be in charge of Fulaoguan, Qin family's genius Qin Xingjun, Qin Zijiao and other important figures and clan elders of the Qin family gathered together.
The atmosphere was oppressive and solemn.
The clan leader Qin Zaixin, who originally looked only in his fifties or sixties and gave off an air of Yuan Ting Yue Zhi, looked much older today, and even his whole back was slightly hunched, as if he could not bear the heavy burden on his shoulders. .
"The prince has a grudge against our Qin family, and his coveting of our Qin family's Longtan is not something that happens in a day or two. It's just because of my aunt's presence and the fact that his own foundation was not stable in the past few years, so he didn't Touch our Qin family.
In recent years, the prince has gradually gained more power. A few days ago, he took advantage of the fact that Che Rongshu and his daughter were killed by the Corpse Demon Sect, and took the opportunity to make Count Qingyuan the governor of the southwest. He will also oversee the troops of the four southwest states. Now his momentum is More and more vast.
Now that my aunt has failed to temper the thunder, given the prince's character and demeanor, he will definitely attack my Qin family, so we must make a countermeasure as soon as possible. I discussed with several elders in the clan that the whole clan would withdraw from the prefecture and move to Qincheng, our ancestral home.
Qincheng is the ancestral land, and there are strong men from our ancestors who used the power of Longtan to set up a large formation. If we really want to hold on to our ancestral land, even if the prince wants to attack, it will not be easy. Unfortunately, time is still too tight, and Xingjun and Zijiao have not been able to fully refine the four major organs.
Otherwise, if they can enter the Dragon Pond, absorb the Dragon Qi, activate their bloodline, and break through to become Grand Masters in one fell swoop, they will be able to use the power of their ancient bloodline to unleash the greater power of the formation. In this way, unless a mysterious master takes action, it will be difficult for them to break through the ancestral land. "Qin Zaixin said.
"After all, the ancestral land is located in a corner, and the Qin family cannot have more room for development there. That's why the ancestors left Qinshan and came to the city to develop.
Nowadays, the Qin family's huge family business in Zhoucheng is the result of the hard work of generations of clan members. Once it is given up, it will be equivalent to giving up the foundation accumulated by the Qin family over many generations.
Without the foundation of the city, how will we train our children in the future? Even if we can temporarily hold the ancestral land, I am afraid that in a few years there will be no need for the prince to send people to suppress it, and our Qin family will be completely in decline. " said a man who looked about the same age as Qin Zaixin and had an extremely thin face.
This man is a master of martial arts, and his energy and blood are as powerful as those of the clan leader Qin Zaixin.
After the man finished speaking, the hall fell into a brief silence.
"What do you mean, don't give up the foundation of the city?" Qin Zaixin asked with a slight frown, breaking the silence.
"It's better to find a way to surrender to the prince! Your arms can't twist your thighs, not to mention that our Qin family is still going downhill." said the thin man.
"Do you think the prince will accept it?" Qin Zaixin shook his head.
"I heard that the prince has a soft spot for Zitang, maybe..." The thin man paused here.
The expressions of everyone present changed.
Some people showed a hint of emotion, while others showed a look of humiliation and indignation.
"Zai Yan, if you say this again, do you believe I will reward you for your words?" Qin Longzhen, the great-uncle who guarded the Sutra Pavilion, said with an ashen face.
The thin man's name was Qin Zaiyan, and Qin Longzhen was called uncle according to his seniority.
PS: Please guess whether Qin will die or live after Mei Quelei fails, or leave a message saying whether you hope she lives or dies. I will make arrangements later based on the opinions of most book friends.
