After sending Dao Baifeng away, Wu Sheng calculated in his mind that the original hard-core Qingyu party, Sima Yuanzirang, Sikong Yipu, and Si Wei Yongji all seemed to want to use this to discuss the southern expedition again. If more were added, Shangdian ordered Yongzang, and there were still many warring factions who were ready to avenge their previous humiliation.

It seems that they are waiting for themselves, the "sufferer", to come forward.

Wu Sheng didn't care about being used as an excuse, as long as he could get the final spoils, and since he was avenging himself, the compensation he would receive after the victory would definitely not be less.

I just don’t know what Qingyu thinks about it. He was the leader of the war back then, but now that he has become the king, will he still take the lead? As for the "brother and sister love" mentioned by Temple Wei Yongji, this is not a problem.

While he was thinking, the old man Yong Zifu came to visit him. Wu Sheng hurriedly went out to greet him and welcomed him into the main hall.

"Lao Guo came here late at night. Did something happen?" Wu Sheng was confused.

Yong Zifu sighed: "Doctor, you know, there is another battle in front of the Jiuzi army. Although the Chu army has a slight upper hand, the casualties are heavy."

Wu Sheng nodded: "I just heard that the old man is worried about the war between Jiuzi, but what does it mean?"

Yong Zifu said: "I heard that King Wu destroyed the Shang Dynasty and granted Wu Geng, the son of King Zhou, to the old capital. After King Wu passed away, he ordered his brother Zhou Gongdan to assist King Youcheng, who was very powerful. Wu Geng restored the old dynasty, and Guan Shu and others He spread rumors that Duke Zhou was plotting rebellion, and Duke Zhou had no choice but to retreat due to the rumors. Later, Duke Zhou pursued the rumors and discovered that Wu Geng and Guan Shu were rebelling, so he wrote "Owl" to advance to King Cheng, saying: "It's not raining in the sky." , clear the mulberry soil, prepare for the house. Before it rains, repair the doors and windows as soon as possible! Now the people of Chu will be tired from fighting for a long time, so they are recruiting people from the neighboring countries. They have paid tribute many times before, and they have also recruited young men. Who knows? Next year's tribute, what's the year after that? It's just Mao Gong. If we recruit young adults again, how can we be treated as small vassals?"

Wu Sheng asked: "What does the elder mean?"

Yong Zifu said: "We should make preparations early and prepare all our people and money for next year's worries."

Wu Sheng said: "All the officials are like this, why don't you advise your Majesty?"

Yongzifu sighed: "We were tested the day before yesterday, and your Majesty should not respond. Now that the doctor has been assassinated, it is a good opportunity! The doctor is trusted by your Majesty, and all the ministers are looking forward to your support." Doctor Shen, you are the most popular with your Majesty. We only have I can see your back from behind, but I dare not stand shoulder to shoulder. I can only ask you to comment on this matter.

Wu Sheng asked again: "Does the elder of the country know about the emperor's concerns?"

Yong Zifu said: "Your Majesty is worried, not in Jiuzhen, but in the Fish Kingdom."

Yongrentang was really busy tonight, and while we were talking, Master Dongsun reported again that a guest from Situ Zhonggu's family wanted to see him.

Wu Sheng summoned him to the hall. After Master Dongsun went down, he quickly returned and said, "The guest is gone."

Wu Sheng was surprised: "What's the reason for this?"

Master Dongsun said: "When the guest heard that the elder was here, he said he would no longer bother the layman."

When Yong Zifu heard this, he stroked his beard and smiled.

Well, things have become clear. During the days when I was refining alchemy in seclusion, these officials and ministers all conspired to use their own assassination as an excuse to encourage the monarch to march south.

However, Qingyu was worried that Yuguo would take advantage of the situation, so he never agreed. However, the doctors did not think this was a problem, or thought that this problem was not something to worry about at all.

So as soon as Wu Sheng came out of confinement, everyone came to encourage him to come forward. After all, in the eyes of these officials, Qingyu was quite unusual for Wu Sheng.

After thinking about it all night, Wu Sheng decided to go to the palace to meet Qingyu. Now he feels like he is being roasted on the fire, he is called "popular", and all the officials in the country are eagerly waiting for him to come forward. If he doesn't come forward, he will offend a large number of people.

From the bottom of his heart, he also believed that the ideas of the officials were right, especially when the old man Yongzifu of the country made it clearer. If there was no way to raise money and expand the population, what would the Chu people ask for next year when they asked for it again?

There are so many tribes in Baiyue. At present, only the conquest of the Jiuzhen tribe is the most justified. If it were replaced by other tribes, such as the Lianshan tribe and the Cangwu tribe, which are close to Yongguo, it would probably trigger the Baiyue tribes to come together to support. In a joint confrontation, the Jiuzhen tribe has the hatred of Yongjiang far away and the hatred of Doctor Shen nearby. It is natural to use troops against him. It is difficult to arouse the resentment of the Baiyue tribes. With the reputation of Shen Alchemist, they may still get help.

Of course, the monarch's worries are also very reasonable, especially the lady You Jiang is the daughter of Lord Yu. Any changes in the country will be immediately reported to the Kingdom of Fish. This is why the monarch and the officials have been unwilling to say it clearly, but Reason for being vague.

Before leaving, he made another trip to the Tingsi Prison, accompanied by Temple Wei Yongji, and the old official present explained the situation on the spot.

"Dian ordered to use an urn to listen to the sound and identify the location of the assassin's cave, so he used the urn to cover the ground with the bag of Yin tiger soul and cover it..."

"After the assassin fell into coma, we locked his hands and feet with the Five Elements Control Chain. Logically speaking, since his true energy is sealed, he should be unable to move..."

"...Clothes? The villain doesn't even think about it. However, these monks from the wilderness often practice tricks. If the villain hadn't had some experience when searching his body, he would have almost died from it - he has a monster that can shrink, even if the assassin Already unconscious, still jumping out to hurt people..."

"...Exactly! The assassin is extremely arrogant. He doesn't answer questions honestly, but also asks questions in reverse. He even named himself to provoke Tingsi. It's really hateful..."

"It's right here, brush... no one is there..."

A live demonstration came alive. Wu Sheng listened as if he was in front of his eyes. He pondered for a moment and pointed out on the spot: "This is time travel!"

"Time travel?" Yong Ji and the temple officials looked at each other.

Wu Sheng was determined: "It must be time travel! I heard that in the wild land, there is the art of time travel. You can travel through places, through time and space, through men and women, through races, everything!"

The temple officials had expressions of disbelief. Yong Ji blinked and nodded immediately: "So, there is no doubt that the assassin came from Baiyue and the wilderness. This is a witchcraft, so the suspicion is extremely high!"

Wu Sheng said: "I will go to the palace and report to you!"

On the same day, Wu Sheng entered the palace and had a conversation with the king.

Qingyu said: "I heard that there were assassins trying to assassinate Qing's family, and I was very worried. Fortunately, the people of the country were alert and the imperial temple was powerful, so they did not disturb the Qing's family."

Wu Sheng said: "Thank you for your kindness. But I heard that you can only commit a thief for a thousand days, but there is no way to prevent a thief for a thousand days. This is so-called defense. There is a saying in the art of war that attack is the best defense. I ask your Majesty to agree..."

Qingyu interrupted him: "I heard that Madam was given the sword Guiju Mountain Formation by Jiang as a gift, and you have set it up in Mangdang Mountain. How is this formation?"

It is very impolite for the monarch to interrupt Doctor Qing's speech and reply. When meeting the more upright Doctor Qing, he would probably immediately stare at each other.

But Wu Sheng didn't think it was rude. He had just worked hard to refine elixirs for Yongguo, so he would only be more "favored" and would definitely not be "disliked" by Qingyu. He glanced at the historian writing furiously in the corner of the palace and smiled. Qingyu interrupted him directly because he didn't want him to say what he said next, lest it be recorded, spread, and reach the ears of Mr. Yu, which would make it more difficult for him to go on an expedition.

Wu Sheng smiled and said: "This formation is very effective..."

Just listen to Qingyu say again: "That's good. Once the Qing family can be protected, I will feel at ease. They all say that the Yu Kingdom has strong soldiers and strong horses, and the refined magic weapons and weapons are excellent. Unexpectedly, the magic circle sent is also good." It’s so good, I can’t compare to it.”

This is another reminder to him that the "worry of the few" lies with the fish country, and there is nothing he can do.

Of course Wu Sheng understood: "I don't want to do this, so please go to Baiyue to investigate the case."
