Chapter 13 The Secret of Jiuyang, Peerless Heart Lotus
Why don't men take Wu hooks to calm down the world?
Xiao Yu has the heart to calm the world, but she has no intention of hegemony.
In the past, even if Xiao Yu said that he did not have the intention of hegemony, the King of Ming would not believe it; but now, the King of Ming can see that Xiao Yu has no ambition from Xiao Yu's wonderful skill of offering Wanling Dharma.
If Xiao Yu was ambitious, he would not hand over the skill of "All Spirits" that can significantly enhance the power of the King of the Ming Dynasty.
As a king, King Ming's favorite person is Xiao Yu, a person who has both amazing talent and no ambition.
Xiao Yu dedicated "Wan Ling Dharma Phase" to the King of Ming just to give Li Linxiang face. Unexpectedly, the King of Ming trusted him more because of his dedication of "Wan Ling Dharma Phase".
At the banquet of the engagement ceremony, the literary ministers and generals could obviously feel the favor of the King of Ming for Xiao Yu.
Seeing the King of Ming's attitude towards Xiao Yu, these literary ministers and generals who are good at observing words and colors will naturally make Xiao Yu more enthusiastic.
When night fell, Xiao Yu, who was drunk, was arranged by the King of Ming to rest in a side hall of Mingde Palace.
This engagement ceremony not only confirmed the marriage between Xiao Yu and Li Linxiang, but also increased Xiao Yu's power invisibly.
Although Xiao Yu was drunk at the engagement gift, his habits for many years made him wake up at dawn.
After waking up, Xiao Yu first ran Zhenyuan to get rid of the fatigue caused by the hangover, and then woke up the maid sleeping behind the screen.
After dressing up, Xiao Yu led the bodyguards who had been serving outside the side hall and walked towards Yuxiu Palace.
Last night, the King of Ming rested in Yuxiu Palace.
When Xiao Yu came to Yuxiu Palace, King Ming and Concubine Li were having breakfast.
Because Li Linxiang made Xiao Yu ask the king of Ming to ask for marriage, Concubine Li has criticized Li Linxiang a lot in the past month. However, now that Xiao Yugang appeared in front of the king of Ming and Concubine Li, Concubine Li asked people to add a stool next to the table.
The breakfast used by King Ming and Concubine Li was not luxurious but very delicious. Although Xiao Yu had something to do, she also ate a lot under the warm greeting of Concubine Li.
After breakfast, Concubine Li left with the maid of honor who served on one side, and Xiao Yu followed King Ming to the place where he usually entertained and handled memorials in Yuxiu Palace.
After signaling Xiao Yu to sit down, Ming Wang opened his mouth with a smile and asked, "What does Xiao Aiqing think of the current situation in the world?"
Although the King of Ming was full of smiles, Xiao Yu still thought carefully before replying.
"In my humble opinion, if there is no accident, the power of the king will inevitably be destroyed first. Then, your majesty, who is slightly more powerful, will defeat the king and unify the world."
"The power is slightly better?"
King Ming smiled faintly and looked at Xiao Yu and said, "Aiqing is now engaged to Lin Xiang. What else do you have to worry about talking to me?"
"I dare not!"
Looking at Xiao Yu with a cautious face, the King of Ming smiled and said, "In terms of power, I am still a little different from Sima Li now. However, if I and he can see the unification of the world in their lifetime, then the person who unites the world will definitely not be him. He is too conceited. People in the cultivation world will not like a king who is too conceited.
The cultivation world is inextricably linked to the secular world. All forces in the cultivation world will not directly participate in the disputes in the world, but indirectly affect the disputes in the secular world.
Therefore, although the power of the king is stronger than that of the king of the Ming Dynasty, because the forces of all parties in the cultivation world are biased towards the side of the king of the Ming Dynasty, the person who will unify the world in the future may really be the king of the Ming Dynasty.
Of course, if the power of the king of the Ming Dynasty is too far away from the king in the future, even if the forces in the cultivation world do not like the king who is too conceited, they will reach a certain compromise with the king of the king of Ming and will not hinder the unification of the world.
This is the situation in the world, simple and complex.
"I am not talented, but I will also exhaust my strength for your majesty to unify the world."
"I know your loyalty!"
Replying to Xiao Yu, the King of Ming continued: "Since I reached a tacit understanding between me and Sima Li, Yang Shang's power has shrunk to half in just over two years. Now He Tianhua has almost knocked down the whole Tianyun County. When He Tianhua will calm down the whole Tianyun County, it is not difficult for him to fight with Wan Guiyun in a year. If Aiqing also beat Jiuyuan County, Yang Shang, who has only two counties left, will definitely give up Yueyang County and withdraw all his forces to Biyun County. It's not that I destroy my own prestige and rise from the king's morale. If you and Changshan compete with Wan Guiyun and He Tianhua, it will be difficult for you to compete with them.
"I'm really not as good as General Chang and Wan Guiyun, who have been famous for a long time!"
"Your talent is no worse than theirs, but your power is not as good as theirs."
After a pause, the king of Ming sighed, "If the fierce and barbarians led by the wolf can be more at ease, the two generals, Du and Ye, do not have to be stationed on the edge of the wolf's collar, and the power that I can call will not be weaker than Sima Li."
"Does Your Majesty want me to defend against the attack of the wolf leader for one of the two generals?"
With this kind of speculation, Xiao Yu quickly thought of an excuse to refuse.
Xiao Yu also wanted to strengthen his power a little in the process of pacing Jiuyuan County. How could he be willing to defend the grassland people in Canglang County now?
Just as Xiao Yu was thinking about the excuse he could say, the next words of the King of Ming made him let go of his heart.
"Those fierce people in the wolf collar do not want the regional unification ruled by the Xia people. Therefore, in a short period of time, they will not give up the invasion of Moshang County and Ganyun County. The two generals Du and Ye are not allowed to leave Moshang County with their main forces for the time being."
After a pause for a moment, the king of Ming's eyes flashed, and then said, "Although there has been no war in Qingli County in recent years, the army guarding Qingli County is no worse than those who often fight on the battlefield."
Xiao Yu's heart moved. She looked at the king of Ming and asked, "Are the people of Wumen willing to help your majesty unify the world?"
Qingli County is the territory of Wumen, and Wu Zong'an, the county marquis of Qingli County, also comes from Wumen.
In Xiao Yu's thought, the king of Ming would say these words to him because he had made some promises from the witch.
However, what Xiao Yu didn't expect was that the King of Ming did not get the promise of the witch sect. He just got the promise of a sect called Tiannufeng.
Tiannufeng is not a sect handed down from ancient times, and has always not participated in all kinds of things in the cultivation world. Xiao Yu has no impression of this sect composed of women.
From the mouth of the king of the Ming Dynasty, Xiao Yu knew that the witch sect has hardly intervened in secular affairs over the years. In fact, it has affected Qingli County as a sect called Tiannufeng.
"Is this day's female peak a branch of Wumen?"
"I don't know either! However, there is no doubt about the great influence of Tiannufeng on Qingli County.
Before Xiao Yu asked more questions, the King of Ming told the important things he had mentioned to Xiao Yu before at breakfast.
"After Lin Chang leaves the customs, you go to Qingli County with Lin Chang first, and then go back to Pingjiang County."
Xiao Yu and Li Linxiang are not young and should have married earlier. However, the King of Ming may have wanted Xiao Yu to help him fight for a few more years. He set the marriage date of Xiao Yu and Li Linxiang three years later.
Since the wedding date is still far away, Xiao Yu has the idea of returning to the front line of Pingjiang County. Unexpectedly, the King of Ming sent him such a task.
"Your Majesty wants me to go to Wumen?"
"Hmm! Although Wumen has not interfered in all kinds of things in Qingli County over the years, the appeal of Wumen among all forces and the people in Qingli County is unmatched by Tiannufeng. If he can get the support of the Witch Gate, Wu Zong'an will definitely do his best to help me.
"Your Majesty has the order, and I dare not diso obey. However, I don't actually have any friendship with Wumen. I can't guarantee that I can persuade Wumen to support your majesty's unification of the world.
When the king of Ming heard the words, he smiled and said, "Aiqing just do your best. Even if Aiqing can't persuade the witch to support me, I won't blame Aiqing."
After talking about other things with Ming Wang for a while, Xiao Yu said goodbye and left.
Out of Yuxiu Palace, Xiao Yu wanted to see Li Linxiang. After thinking about it, she couldn't think of what to say after seeing Li Linxiang, so she left the palace directly.
In the next half month, Xiao Yu stayed at home except for the days when she entered the palace to participate in the court meeting.
During the day, Xiao Yu was refining his "Red Lotus Nine Presences" and a skill of casting weapons that he learned from his cultivation method to Yuanxing; at night, Xiao Yu focused on all kinds of ghosts in the seven prison towers.
After half a month, the ghost in the floating Yin Mansion in the Seven Prison Tower has been completely cleaned up. However, the floating Yin Mansion has not disappeared as Xiao Tianzan and Xiao Yu were worried.
Xiao Tianzan is worthy of being a former master of Tianrenjing. He probably sensed the situation in the seven prison towers, and he understood why the floating Yinfu did not disappear.
When a cave sky is opened, it requires a lot of the power of faith incense, and the existence of a cave sky needs the continuous power of faith incense to maintain.
Although the ghost in the floating Yinfu has completely disappeared, Xiao Yu herself enjoys the belief from the army under his command and some people in the area under his management. It is the power of faith provided by this group of people that replaces the evil power provided by those ghosts so that the special cave heaven of the floating Yinfu can continue to exist.
Xiao Yu and Xiao Tianzan are very happy that the floating yinfu can continue to exist.
"What a creation!"
Xiao Tianzan said with a smile and turned his eyes to Xiao Yiyi.
In the past half month, although Xiao Yu has gathered a lot of pure wish power, she has not solved the little resentment left in Xiao Yiyi's body with wish power.
Xiao Yu did this naturally so that the pitiful father and daughter can stay together for a longer time.
Now, Xiao Yu understands from Xiao Tianzan's reluctant eyes that Xiao Tianzan is determined to let Xiao Yu turn the last trace of resentment on Xiao Yiyi and send Xiao Yiyi into reincarnation.
Looking at the reluctance and relief on Xiao Tianzan's face, Xiao Yu hesitated for a moment and whispered to Xiao Yiyi, who leaned against him because of Xiao Tianzan's gaze, "Yiyi, he is your father. You can call him father."
