The Book of Heaven

Chapter 353 The price of growth

Where did Ma Zheng go?

"You want to know?" Li Yan's face was still grim, obviously not happy with Li Hong's performance.

"Father, I know that I didn't do well in the past, so I will definitely listen to my father's words in the future, and ask my father to tell my son, where did Ma Zheng go? Why did my father panic so much?"

Li Hong's expression became extremely sincere, which finally made Li Bin's complexion a little bit better, and he patted his son Li Hong on the shoulder, Li Bin said: "It's not because of my husband that I'm angry with you, it's really because the matter is a little serious this time." With a long sigh, Li Yan continued: "There are some things that shouldn't be told to you now, but now that the situation is urgent, I will tell you a little bit, how the Ma family and the other four kings with different surnames got started back then, You should know everything, right?"

Regarding the five different surnames, it is because of the coincidence that Wang Fajia obtained the five martial arts in the "Book of Heaven", and thus made great achievements during the expansion of the empire, until he became an extremely powerful minister, and won the outstanding achievements of all ages.

These are not secrets at all. Even if the common people don't know about them, upstarts like the Li family still know it very well, and Li Hong naturally knows about it.Fortunately, Li Hong was not stupid, he knew that what his father asked could not be something that everyone knew, there must be something more secret.

So what is it?

As the expression on Li Bin's face became more and more mysterious, Li Hong became more and more curious.

"My husband only found out not long ago that there is a mysterious place above the five kings with different surnames, or behind the five kings with different surnames, called the holy hall!"

"Holy Church?" Li Hong was dumbfounded, as if he couldn't believe it.After all, the name "Sacred Church" seems extremely lofty when you hear it, enough to make people think about it.

"That's right, it's the Holy Church. It is said that the reason why Ma Zheng disappeared recently is that he has gone to the place called the Holy Church. It is said that not everyone can stay there unless the permission of the Holy Church is obtained." , but as long as they are able to stay, as long as they come out, their realm will definitely be greatly improved!"

"What, the realm has been greatly improved? Father, what is that place? How could it be possible to improve? How old is Ma Zheng this year? He has cultivated to the innate realm and it is already against the sky. He can't go in for a few years. Become a martial god?"

Li Hong let out a scream, even in front of his father, Li Hong didn't hide much.

Isn't that right, Li Yana has four sons, but Li Hong is probably the most useless among them.What's more important is that Ma Zheng has no enmity with other people. Even if Ma Zheng has made great progress in martial arts after returning from studying in the temple, he will not seek revenge from others, but may only seek trouble from him, Li Hong.

Perhaps the congenital realm did not dare to toss about in the Li family compound, but what if Ma Zheng broke through again and became a martial god?
"Father, if Ma Zheng really becomes a martial god..." Li Hong felt like he was going crazy. After all, anyone who encountered such a thing would be similar to Li Hong. Who would be willing to be an enemy of a martial god? , as long as the brain is normal, they are unwilling to encounter such a thing.

"So I'm going to let you go to the northwest side for me." Li Yan sighed again, looking at Li Hong clearly with reluctance, but also helplessness.

Where is the northwest direction?There is no need for Li Mingming to say, Li Hong also understands that there is actually only one possibility in the northwest direction, Da Yuezhi.

Li Hong's face changed color, and he said in a low voice: "Father, didn't you say last time that the empire might attack the Da Yue Clan? Once this war starts, the Da Yue Clan has the hope of winning?"

"There is still a chance, as long as Zhuge's house was breached last time..."

The breach of Zhuge's family not only means that the imperial court will delay launching the war because of the delay in obtaining military equipment, but more importantly, once the secrets of Zhuge's family's advanced military equipment are exposed to Da Yuezhi, the empire's attitude towards Da Yuezhi will also change. If there is a change, the ending that Li Hong expects may appear.

However, it is meaningless to say these things now. Once the Zhuge family's Martial God is exposed, who would dare to say that he has the ability to bring down the Zhuge family in one go?The entire Li family does not have a real Martial God. As for the Da Yuezhi, there may be Martial Gods, but the number is definitely not many, and it is impossible for such a treasure to enter the territory of the Han Empire rashly. One, the royal family of the Dayue Clan really couldn't cry if they wanted to.

"Then if I go to Da Yue Clan now, don't I want to die, waiting to die? Daddy, I don't want to wait to die!"

As the saying goes, it is difficult to have eggs under the collapse of the nest. If Li Hong went to the Dayue Clan, he might die under the sword of the Han army once the city was destroyed. Not only the pain of death, but more importantly, Even if you die, you will bear the infamy.

Doesn't Li Hong know how dangerous this matter is, but it is true that Li Hong cannot be allowed to stay in the empire right now. The court's investigation of Zhuge's family will soon point to Li Hong. After all, there is no room in the world that is absolutely airtight. In addition, Li Hong's visits to Bashu were not low-key enough, almost everyone knew it, and it was impossible for Li Yan to deny it.

"Is there nothing you can do as a father? But you don't have to be too nervous. It's not like our Li family has no alliances inside and outside the court. We have already discussed it. It's fine if the court doesn't send troops to the Dayue Clan this time. As long as the court sends troops , we will definitely get the position of leading general, and let your fourth brother lead the army, your safety will be guaranteed, I believe Dad will not let you take risks."

"The child naturally believes in Daddy."

Speaking of this, what's the use of Li Hongxiang not believing Li Zong? Could it be possible to change Li Zan's mind?Li Hong, who has a deep understanding of his parents, also knows that his father will not argue with his mother on small things, but once there is a big problem in the family, no matter how much he begs his mother, it is useless.So Li Hong had no choice but to accept his fate, and under the watchful eyes of Li Yan, he obediently packed his things and prepared to go.

At this time, Li Hong felt envious of his younger brother, Li Yuan.If he could lead his troops into the imperial city of the Great Yue Clan and build another city for the vast territory of the Great Han Empire, he would probably leave his name in history no matter what.Even today, Li Hong can't blame others. If he wants to blame, he can blame himself for being playful since he was a child.

On the surface, Li Zong was arranging a way out for Li Hong, but he didn't mean to give the Li family a way out.

After coming out of Li Hong's courtyard, Li Zong went back to his study and taught his elder son and second son the books. He wanted to arrange for his elder son to go to a city near the sea in the south where the conditions were harsh, and he also wanted his second son to go there. In the northeast, it is close to Goryeo. Even if there are any changes in the future, it will quickly break away from the sphere of influence of the Han Empire.

The originally good family has now become torn apart. Although it has not yet come to an end, the old woman who has given birth to four sons is crying alone in the room with her son and husband behind her back.

This is the price, the price for a newborn nobleman to grow up.
