Nan Rong Qufeng stood there with an angry face, looking at Mu Yinghao who was kneeling below.
Mu Yinghao kept explaining that the Guijia sprites that appeared in Rouyuan Palace had absolutely nothing to do with him, but Nanrong Qufeng was so angry that he just didn't say a word, and even had that strange and weird smile on his face.
When Mu Yinghao raised his eyes and took a look, he was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat. As a retainer, he knew very well that once such a smile appeared on Nanrong Qufeng's face, he would kill someone.
But, will the person he kills be himself?
Mu Yinghao said again: "Master, this matter really has nothing to do with my subordinates. I have dealt with all the ashes of Zhang Haotian and Liao Ran after their deaths and have not leaked them."
Nanrong Qufeng asked coldly: "The monsters in Sihai Inn and the monsters in the underground secret passage of Twelve Squares have nothing to do with you!?"
Mu Yinghao trembled all over, lying on the ground and closing his eyes and said: "I did create the monsters in the Sihai Inn, but the monsters in the underground secret passage of Twelve Squares were made by Liao Yanqi. After that, I really made those monsters."
Their ashes were disposed of cleanly."
Nanrong Qufeng walked up to Mu Yinghao and shouted: "Then tell me, how did the cavalry officers who attacked Rouyuan Palace turn into monsters!? How did those soldiers mutate into Guijia?"
"Master!" Li Chaonian hurriedly walked in and knelt in front of Nanrong Qufeng, "Master, please calm down, this matter has nothing to do with General Mu."
Nanrong Qufeng didn't seem to show any kindness to Li Chaonian: "It's already this time, and you're still speaking for him?"
Li Chaonian said: "Master, I am not speaking for General Mu. This matter has absolutely nothing to do with the Nanrong family!"
Li Chaonian's words were very serious and categorical. He was actually reminding Nanrong Qufeng not to get into trouble. At the same time, he was also telling Nanrong Qufeng that he must turn lies into facts.
In fact, Nanrong Qufeng knew very well that this matter had nothing to do with Mu Yinghao, because Mu Yinghao was not so courageous. Furthermore, Mu Yinghao was stationed at the Shendu Military Yamen before and after the incident and never left. If it hadn't been for him
If you go there in person, the flag camp will not open its door.
Mu Yinghao did not go to the flag camp in person, but also asked the flag camp to open the door to let people pass, unless he had a token, but Mu Yinghao did not have a token in his hand. Therefore, it is obvious that the only person who did this was his ambitious one.
His second son Nan Rongzhong is.
But that was Nanrong Qufeng's declared heir, so he couldn't pursue it directly and could only take it out on Mu Yinghao.
That's right, he would not do anything to Mu Yinghao just to vent his anger. At the same time, because Mu Yinghao agreed to support Nan Rongzhong's ambition to raise troops to overthrow the Dachang Dynasty, he would reprimand Mu Yinghao as a reminder.
Nanrong Qufeng thought for a moment and then said to Mu Yinghao: "When you go to patrol the city defenses, you should also pay attention to the movements of the armored guards and the arresting yamen. If you find anything unusual, tell me immediately."
Mu Yinghao immediately said: "Yes!"
Before Mu Yinghao stood up and left, he cast a grateful look at Li Chaonian.
After Mu Yinghao left, Nanrong Qufeng said to Li Chaonian: "Ask the counselor."
Li Chaonian stood up and said: "Master, even if Rouyuan Palace is attacked, even if the emperor knows that the matter is related to the Nanrong family, as long as we don't take any action, the emperor will pretend not to know. As long as we maintain this tacit understanding with the emperor, we will
It’s safe and sound.”
Naturally, Nanrong Qufeng also knew that the biggest problem at the moment was the kidnapped Princess Baomeng and the Torsi army stationed in Gucheng.
Nanrong Qufeng said: "Where is Zhong Wei?"
Li Chaonian said: "The second young master has returned to Nanrong Mountain."
Nanrong Qufeng gritted his teeth and said: "You left a mess for me to clean up, but he left on his own? You are a traitor!"
"Master, he may not be the so-called mess," Li Chaonian took a step forward, "It is an indisputable fact that the second young master established contact with the Torsi Department without the knowledge of the master, but didn't the master always want to establish contact with the Torsi Department?
?It’s a fait accompli, why pursue it?”
Nanrong Qufeng nodded: "The counselor is right. Even if Ji Chengying knows that this matter is related to the Nanrong family, he will pretend not to know. Otherwise, the Ji family will be attacked from both sides. Although it is true that we are united with the Torsi Department at the moment.
There is an opportunity to send troops, but our division is unknown. On the other hand, the Torsi Division can definitely use the princess to make a fuss. Even then, for us, the time is not ripe. We must stand unswervingly on the side of the Ji family.
.”
Nanrong Qufeng is not stupid. Li Chaonian immediately said: "Master is very wise."
If we think purely from a tactical point of view, if something goes wrong in the Rouyuan Palace this time, if the Nanrong family adds fuel to the flames and prevents Baomeng from returning to Rouyuan, the Torsi tribe will use an excuse to raise troops and wait until the troops arrive at the gates of the divine capital. The Nanrong family will
Let’s do another internal and external integration.
In an instant, no matter how brave the armored guards were, and with those waiting outside the palace, the army could directly overwhelm the imperial city.
However, force is only a means to achieve an end, and the most important of the ends is strategy.
Success in tactics and failure in strategy are meaningless and may even lead to ultimate failure.
For the Nanrong family, if they want to succeed strategically, they must be justified. On the land of Jiuyuan, even if they conquer the country, they must rely on the blood of the Kunlun Dynasty if they want to secure the country. That is, like the previous dynasty and the
Like the founder of the Dachang Dynasty, he had to find a descendant of the Kunlun Dynasty at all costs, otherwise he would not be able to convince the public.
Of course, the so-called descendants of the Kunlun Dynasty are also an excuse. The symbol of imperial power on this land is not an object, but the legendary administrator appointed by the Nine Heavens Emperor to the Nine Plains Human World.
Therefore, the bloodline of the Kunlun Dynasty eventually became a symbol and a belief.
The reason why the Nanrong family can possess those Guijia is entirely due to Li Chaonian, but even Nanrong Qufeng himself has not understood the ultimate secret of those Guijia, but Li Chaonian told him that as long as he keeps studying Guijia, he can
Maybe he can master the absolute power that can surpass the Nine Plains, and he can also figure out the secret of the bloodline of the Kunlun Dynasty from it.
Why are there people with different blood? Why are the descendants of the Kunlun Dynasty called heavenly beings?
Why are people with different blood and heavenly beings not infected by Guijia, nor mutated into monsters? What is the connection between the three? This is what the Nanrong family hopes Li Chaonian can find out.
Because if the secret is figured out, then can the Nanrong family artificially create so-called people with different blood or heavenly beings?
Since the people on the Jiuyuan Earth regard Heavenly Beings as their beliefs and symbols, they create Heavenly Beings and control them.
Nanrong Qufeng thought of this and smiled bitterly: "Nowadays, those who believe in Jiuyuan are not gods, but gods. How ridiculous."
The Son of Heaven is not a human being, nor is he a so-called god, but a heavenly being, and the heavenly beings replace the gods to manage the world of Jiuyuan. This is the fact that has been passed down from generation to generation since the existence of civilization in Jiuyuan.
Since humans cannot create gods, why can’t they create gods?
To Li Chaonian, Tang Xiaohao was the Tianying he brought back then, the king of Guijia, and the savior who could change the status quo of Jiuyuan. But he didn't know that it was precisely because of his help back then that some people
People's identities have changed, which has also caused certain things to undergo fundamental and irreversible changes.
Because if Tang Xiaohao is a heavenly infant, how can he be a heavenly being?
Fate plays such a clever trick on everyone involved.
"Princes and generals will live in peace" is just an inspiring slogan. It cannot become a solid foundation for the final victory in Jiuyuan, because everyone needs faith, but this faith cannot be illusory and cannot save all people in the world at critical moments.
God of water and fire.
Li Chaonian said again: "Master, I heard that the consort has gone after the princess. So, if we want to take the initiative now, we must place our hope in the consort. No matter what, the consort is your grandson."
Nanrong Qufeng had actually had this idea for a long time, and this cunning old man also realized that he had been tricked by Tang Chen and Tang Xiaohao for eighteen years - if Tang Xiaohao was really a playboy and a prodigal son,
Disciple, even if he doesn't die in the surprise attack on Rouyuan Palace, he won't dare to chase the princess.
Therefore, no matter what, he must now find a way to control Tang Xiaohao, and at the same time put pressure on Tang Chen to save the mess left by Nan Rongzhong.
Nanrong Qufeng said: "The emperor has issued an order for Prince Xi to take people to Liangcheng to take charge of this matter."
Li Chaonian immediately said: "The emperor must not trust the prince-in-law, because the prince-in-law is also your grandson in name. If you directly let the prince-in-law take the order, wouldn't it be like putting a knife on your head?"
Nanrong Qufeng looked at Li Chaonian and said, "What does the counselor mean by giving full support to the prince-in-law?"
"That's right!" Li Chaonian smiled, "If we fully support the prince-in-law, the emperor will think that the prince-in-law is on our side, otherwise why should we support him? As long as the emperor doubts him, he will not trust him or trust him.
The prince-in-law, the prince-in-law is faced with a dilemma. He can either remain a superficial disciple like before, or he will completely turn to us."
Nanrong Qufeng nodded slowly: "If Princess Baomeng can return to the Torsi Department safely, then there will definitely be chaos in the Torsi Department."
Everything Li Chaonian said was to guide Nanrong Qufeng to think in this direction: "So, right now we are just supporting the prince-in-law. As for other things, wait and see how they will change, which is equivalent to making a profit."
There is nothing wrong with what Li Chaonian said. The Nanrong family was originally suspected. Although Emperor Ji Chengying would pretend not to know due to the formality, he would be more vigilant towards the Nanrong family.
It is completely reasonable for Nanrong Qufeng to support his grandson, but his support is to prevent Tang Xiaohao from falling to the emperor.
If Baomeng returns to the Torsi tribe, even if Tang Xiaohao goes to Rouyuan for some reason, the internal strife in the Torsi tribe and the crisis facing the court will be temporarily lifted. Tang Xiaohao's future fate will be left to fate.
There is a saying in the Art of War: If anything happens unexpectedly, your heart will be frightened. If your heart is frightened, you will be hasty and unable to accomplish anything, and you will be defeated.
Everything must be prepared for a rainy day. Planning in advance and responding hastily is a harbinger of failure.
The Book of War also says: Soldiers have innate talent, opportunities, moves, and sound.
Nanrong Qufeng didn't realize that Li Chaonian was subtly changing his thinking, making him think that after planning everything, the rest can be left to fate.
However, even if they are sages and sages, even if they are not self-sufficient, they will make divination to implore the gods and pray for destiny.
If you leave everything to God, death is not far away.
Li Chaonian went around in circles to give advice to the Nanrong family, also to help Tang Xiaohao. As long as the Nanrong family did not interfere, Tang Xiaohao would still have tigers and leopards in the rest of his journey, but there would be no jackals.
