Chapter 218 The First Step of Underworld Expansion

"lay down?"

Li Jingxing smiled miserably, and two lines of tears fell from his eyes:

"Speaking lightly! How can I let go of the hatred I have carried for 40 years?"

"This enmity will not rest until death!"

He has nothing else to desire in this life, only to avenge his dead wife!
For this, he is willing to give everything!
Suddenly.

He opened his eyes again, staring at Jiang Qingyu firmly:
"His Royal Highness, in fact, I have been thinking about a question for the past few days——"

"Your father dare not rebel, so what about you?"

"Are you going to decide to be the King of Rejecting the North who is doomed to be demolished and become a famous and powerless king, and live your life in peace and wealth, or do you want to rise up and resist, overthrow the rule of Jing's lineage, and become emperor yourself?"

"Master..."

Jiang Qingyin's expression changed drastically.

rebel?

This is a serious crime of copying and beheading!

On the side, Jiang Qingyu said without changing expression:

"Palace Master Li thinks, with the current strength of the palace, can the rule of the Jing clan be overthrown?"

"My father claims to be in control of the three states in the north, but in reality? Youzhou is owned by Ketucha, and Yongzhou is controlled by the Jiang family. Among the three states, he is the only one who has the final say in Bingzhou!"

"And with the land of Bingzhou and one state, how can they compete against the Jing family who owns the entire Chu State?"

"Besides..."

"There is also an ancestor of the Jing family who has the best martial arts cultivation in the world. Believe it or not, today my father announced the rebellion. When the sun rises tomorrow, the gate of my palace will be full of people including me and my father." The heads of hundreds of people including the king?"

"..."

Li Jingxing was speechless and could only say unwillingly:

"After talking about it, I still dare not!"

"Hey, Dragon Raising Realm!"

"I remember that when Jiang Qiushui and Jiang Qiushui attacked Youzhou together, he practiced for less than three hours a day, but his realm was advancing rapidly! Why is he now the King of Rejecting the North, and he is idle in the mansion all day, but he has nothing to do?" Did you get in without an inch?"

"In my opinion, Jiang Qiushui is too intimidated, and his character has problems, so his cultivation has stagnated for more than [-] years!"

"If he had chosen to rebel, maybe he would have been able to advance to the Dragon Raising Realm, kill the ancestors of Jing's lineage, and grab the dragon chair and become emperor himself!"

"Then today, you, Jiang Qingyu, will not be just the son of the royal family, but the crown prince!"

At this moment, Li Jingxing had no scruples, his face was full of ferocity and resentment, and he was no longer as elegant as before.

"..."

Jiang Qingyu thinks the other party has gone crazy:
"Palace Master Li, you think the Dragon Raising Realm is too simple."

"If my father had chosen to rebel, he would have died without a place to die! Besides, at that time, my father and the Jing family had no deep hatred, but Jing Hong had a kindness for him. Why did he rebel?"

Li Jingxing sneered:
"There was no deep hatred back then, but what about now?"

"His Royal Highness, I'm afraid you have forgotten that your biological mother and eldest brother have been under house arrest in the capital for 12 years!"

"From now on, they will continue to suffer in the capital, but you will take over the throne in the northern border. You are an extremely human minister, can you feel at ease?"

Naturally, Jiang Qingyu would not tell the other party that he was planning to rescue the two relatives when he entered Beijing this time.

He could only say helplessly:

"Then what is Palace Master Li's opinion?"

"Could it be that I should rebel and let Jing Hong kill his mother and elder brother to sacrifice the flag?"

"..."

Li Jingxing was speechless.

Indeed, it seems that no matter what you do, you can't save Lu Wan'er and Jiang Qingshu!

This is exactly where Jing Hong is insidious and cunning!

He knew that as long as he held the two of them firmly in his hands, the King of Rejecting the North would not turn against him!

"Palace Master Li, I can understand your desire for revenge, but..."

"Don't bring up the matter of rebellion again!"

Jiang Qingyu's tone is beyond doubt:

"but……"

"This time in Beijing, I will have a competition with Fan Yu, a student from Jixia Academy. At that time, if you are interested, you can go and be a spectator."

"Also, speaking of what happened back then, I don't think you should resent the entire Jixia Academy, but the group of students who humiliated others. Fast forward 40 years, and they should have already become lecturers or Are you an important minister in the court?"

"Why don't you come to the door and challenge them with piano skills, so that they can also taste the pain of physical and mental exhaustion?"

"..."

Li Jingxing was slightly startled:
"You, aren't you going to kill me?"

Jiang Qingyu looked at Jiang Qingyin who was at the side, and said helplessly:
"I would like to, but my sister will definitely try to stop it."

"Besides..."

"After all, you have the grace to educate Qingyin, and you have also made great contributions to the three northern states, so I have to be magnanimous and spare your life first!"

"Furthermore, Palace Master Li is at the peak of the Bright Moon Realm, with my meager strength, how dare I kill you?"

Li Jingxing froze in place, at a loss.

He returned to Ziyan Courtyard with the intention of dying, but he didn't expect Jiang Qingyu not to kill him?
You know, he plotted against the entire palace, almost killed Jiang Qingyu in the capital, and created a rift between King Jubei and the royal family!
This son's temperament...

Is it really that big?

"Aren't you leaving yet?"

"If you don't leave, I might change my mind!"

Jiang Qingyu's voice sank.

As soon as the words fell, Jiang Qingyin dragged Li Jingxing out, and at the same time turned her head and smiled at Jiang Qingyu:
"Thank you, brother four!"

Jiang Qingyu stood there without responding.

Looking at the backs of the two leaving, Xiao Man on the side blinked and muttered:

"My lord, do you still want to ask Sister Nvluo to help?"

Jiang Qingyu shook her head.

Xiaoman was very puzzled:

"So, just forgive him like that?"

"This person almost made the young master offend the entire Jixia Academy, and even killed the capital!"

If it were her, she wouldn't have such a good manner!
Jiang Qingyu looked calm:
"How long do you think Li Jingxing can live?"

"His heart has died a long time ago. This time his calculations are in vain, so he can only risk his life and take revenge on those enemies in Jixia Academy."

"And this is destined to be a dead end."

Old Mr. Xun from Jixia Academy cherishes his reputation the most. If Li Jingxing went to the capital to make a big fuss, he would definitely not be able to get out alive.

But as long as you can get revenge on your former enemies, even if it's just a part...

I believe he will die with a smile on his face.

Perhaps for Li Jingxing, this is also a good ending.

"It's a poor man."

Xiaoman snorted softly:
"However, it's not a pity to die if you plan on your son!"

Jiang Qingyu didn't say much, just took the girl's hand and walked into the yard:
"Don't worry about him, let's go eat."

……

That night, no one came to bother me.

In the dead of night, Jiang Qingyu's yin body left the palace and went to the drunk general.

On the sixth floor, he saw the maid "Jingzhe" who had been waiting for a long time, that is, Mengren, and the pair of twin lotuses Qingming and Gu Yu.

Mengren wore a light-colored thin skirt today, outlining a blood-spitting curve, her snow-white skin was faintly visible under the skirt, her bare feet were bare, and she was full of coquettishness.

The skirts of Qingming and Gu Yu on the side are more conservative, and the second daughter is younger, and her figure is more than one point inferior to that of Mengren, so she can only win by being pure and pleasant.

At this time, Qingming and Guyu are making tea.

Mengren was sitting on the side, with a guqin that was worth a lot of money on his lap.

Seeing Jiang Qingyu appearing, her eyes showed a bit of resentment:
"Why did you come here?"

"Did you just take in two new maids who can play a good piano, and forget about the slaves and others?"

Jiang Qingyu subconsciously glanced at the Guqin, but saw that five of the seven strings had been broken, and looking at Mengren's hands, they were already covered with scars.

Obviously, this woman has been practicing the piano these days.

And the practice is not very good.

Aware of Jiang Qingyu's gaze, Mengren immediately hid the guqin behind his back and hid his hands together:
"I thought the young master would come last night, but the servant girl and the two maids waited all night, and three catties of tea were boiled to waste!"

Jiang Qingyu walked to his side and sat down, then gently placed Mengren's hands in his palms:

"Why do you suddenly want to learn piano?"

"I remember that my sister is extremely intelligent in everything, except that she is not good at rhythm..."

"Who said that?"

The dreamer said unconvinced:

"That's because the servant didn't study hard!"

As soon as these words came out, the girls Qingming and Gu Yu couldn't help but snickered.

In the past few days, the two of them have been tortured by the sound of Mengren's piano. They have always had a perfect image in their hearts, but now...

Finally, there is a little flaw.

Jiang Qingyu also wanted to laugh, but after seeing the other party's scarred hands, she couldn't laugh anymore:

"Lvqi and Duyou don't want to go back to Qin Palace to be piano slaves and live in Ziyanyuan. They are just a business relationship with me. You don't have to compete with them to be jealous."

"As for last night..."

"I went to Nanshan Temple."

The dreamer was slightly taken aback:
"Nanshan Temple?"

Although it was only three or four hours before Jiang Qingyu returned to Bingzhou, she had already learned a lot about Nanshan Temple.

After all, whether it was watching the sun and going up to Nanshan Mountain, or the Sixth Patriarch showing up to take over the palm and take over as the abbot, it all happened in full view, so it was easy to hear.

However, all of this should have nothing to do with my son.

"Did the young master go to see his wife and the eldest son?"

"Yes, but not only."

Jiang Qingyu sighed softly:
"To be honest..."

"I am the Sixth Patriarch Living Buddha."

After that, he took out a cassock from his arms, and transformed himself into a bald head.

"..."

Mengren was dumbfounded.

The two daughters, Qingming and Gu Yu, who were on the side were also surprised, and at the same time, a trace of panic appeared on their faces:
"Sir, you..."

"The young master is only 19 years old, and he hasn't experienced all kinds of tastes yet, so how can he see through the world of mortals?"

"You have become a monk, what about the servants?"

Different from the performance of the second daughter, Mengren quickly calmed down:

"My son is the abbot of Nanshan Temple. Is there a conspiracy?"

Jiang Qingyu nodded slightly:
"I have been promoted to Zhaxing, and the next step of my practice requires incense and vows, so I made a deal with Abbot Shanxuan, and will serve as the abbot of Nanshan Temple for a few years as the sixth patriarch."

"However, except for occasional necessary appearances, I don't go to Nanshan Temple often."

"On weekdays, I am still the prince of the palace."

Hearing this, the three girls breathed a sigh of relief.

They were really afraid that Jiang Qingyu would become an unfeminine monk and abandon herself!

At the same time, a hint of ambition appeared on the face of the dreamer:
"Since the young master has been promoted to Reaching the Stars, it's time for the next expansion of the underworld."

"The fastest way to expand is to annex!"

"Huamanlou, Meteor Pavilion, and Eagle Dog are all huge monsters, we can't move them for the time being."

"But there is a force that is very suitable to eat at this time."

Jiang Qingyu looked curious:
"What power?"

Mengren was silent for a while, just quietly staring at his scarred hands.

The next moment, a trace of hatred flashed across her eyes, and she gently uttered three words:

"Go to the Wu Pavilion."
