Dynasty Summons: Low-key Hegemony

Chapter 218 Situation of Chu Palace

In Ling Rong Mansion, in the government office, Mo Ziyan, Zhou Xuan, Zheng Shunfa and other important officials are reporting to Xun Yu on the work of each mansion.

After the report was over, the lobby was silent. Their eyes were fixed on the calm Xun Yu above, and they hesitated to speak.

Xun Yu sat at the head of the plan, staring at the Chinese book in his hand, turning a blind eye to the gazes of the people below.

Li Xiangyang, a child of the royal family, was once sent by the royal family to support Li Yuan.

Also a child of the royal family, the tall and burly Li Jingqiong coughed lightly, and gestured wildly to Li Xiangyang with his eyes.

Seeing that Xun Yu didn't show any affectation, Li Xiangyang showed doubts in his eyes, and continued to choose to remain silent.

All the officials in the lobby looked at each other randomly, but none of them dared to speak.

After a while, Xun Yu finally put down the paperwork, looked at the officials, knew what they were thinking, and said calmly:
"Ask what you want to ask."

Hearing Xun Yu's words, everyone's eyes flickered, and they looked up at each other, expecting who would speak first.

Many eyes were on Mo Ziyan, after all, he was the first to follow King Chu.

Faced with the expectations of the crowd, Mo Ziyan closed his eyes slightly, calmly, and did not intend to speak at all.

Although I am also very puzzled, but someone is more anxious than him, why am I anxious.

"If you're all right, then step back." Xun Yu said lightly.

Sure enough, some officials couldn't sit still, and an official in the middle position stood up with a smile on his face:
"My lord Xun, it's like this. Recently, there have been rumors that His Highness was... ambushed. The people below are a little panicked and worried. Therefore, we want to ask about His Highness's situation to appease the hearts of the people below. "

"Extremely extreme. It has been more than ten days since His Highness left Beijing, and it is time to return to Lingzhou."

"We haven't seen His Highness for a long time, and we miss you very much."

Some officials also spoke.

Xun Yu glanced at these officials indifferently, picked up the documents on the other side of the desk, and said casually:
"I know what you are thinking. Yes, His Highness was attacked by the Huanzhou Alliance Venerable."

Xun Yu said it openly.

"This…………"

Many officials swallowed, their hearts were beating wildly.

Could it be that the rumors are true, that His Royal Highness King Chu is really gone?

So what should they do?

Some officials who were loyal to Li Yuan were pale with disbelief in their eyes.

What's more, when Xun Yu got the news, he trembled and said in fear:

"Lord Xun, His Royal Highness the King of Chu is gone, so what should we do?"

"The Huanzhou Alliance attacked and killed the King of Chu. They are likely to attack Lingzhou. How can we resist?"

"That's right, the Huanzhou Alliance is too cruel. Without His Highness, we can't resist it at all." The officials next to them whispered.

Xun Yu didn't move, his eyes slowly swept across these officials, and he let out a cold snort!
"Humph!"

Suddenly, the entire lobby sank into emptiness. These noisy officials seemed to be crushed by a mountain. The oppressive suffocation made them shut their mouths and their faces flushed.

Xun Yu said coldly: "Why, are you all dying under the curse?
Mo Ziyan and Zhou Xuan suddenly opened their eyes.

Officials:? ? ?

The official who asked the question at the beginning, his eyes were wide open, and he stammered:
"Master Xun, you... you mean His Highness... His Highness was not... killed by the Huanzhou Alliance."

Pairs of fiery eyes turned to Xun Yu.

"His Highness was indeed attacked by the Huanzhou Alliance, but what kind of person is His Highness, how could he be killed by a mere Huanzhou Alliance." When Xun Yu talked about the Huanzhou Alliance, there was a sharp killing intent, and the lobby was filled with a sense of aura. breath.

"Then... where is His Highness now?" an official asked excitedly.

"Although His Highness escaped their attack, he was also seriously injured, and now he is..."

The conversation stopped suddenly, Xun Yu's eyes suddenly became extremely sharp, and everyone's heart trembled.

"Where is it?" The official was anxious.

"His Highness is recuperating in a hidden place right now, with Aqing girl guarding him. I believe His Highness will appear in front of you soon." Xun Yu said solemnly.

Hearing Xun Yu's words, Mo Ziyan, Zhou Xuan and others breathed a sigh of relief.

"As long as your Highness is safe."

But there are also many officials showing doubts.

"During the time His Highness is convalescing, you must take good care of the people below, so as not to cause any trouble."

Xun Yu's sharp eyes swept over the crowd, reminding them that the officials he swept over bowed their heads one by one.

Seeing this, Xun Yu smiled slightly, stood up, and casually threw the paper away.

"Especially the rumors of the Huanzhou Alliance can easily shake the unsteady forces in your heart. You should be able to manage the forces below?"

Mo Ziyan and Zhou Xuan looked at each other, and a firm look flashed in their eyes. They had already suspected that such a shrewd person, His Highness, could die so easily. The two stood up at the same time and said:

"Follow Lord Xun's orders, and we will do our best to maintain the stability of the prefecture."

"I will wait for His Highness to return!" The officials who were truly loyal to Chu Palace stood up and said in unison.

At this moment, even the officials who already suspected Li Yuan's death could only agree.

What can you do if you don't agree with them?

Rebellion?
Just kidding, Xun Yu's attitude was very obvious just now, could it be that he questioned whether the King of Chu was really dead and let the King of Chu who was recuperating come out?

He doesn't know whether King Chu will die or not, but he will definitely die.

Just as Jia Xu thought, before the Huanzhou Alliance came in, the prefectures of Lingzhou would not be in trouble so quickly.

....................................

In a large courtyard, after seeing Li Xiangyang and Li Jingqiong coming back, the heroic Li Yunxin had already prepared tea and gestured for them to take a seat.

"Well, do you see anything?"

Li Xiangyang picked up the teacup, his brows were tightly furrowed, and he kept thinking about Xun Yu's every move just now.

After Li Jingqiong picked up the teacup and drank it in one gulp, he sat down on the seat, with sad but happy eyes.

"Xun Yu said that the King of Chu is not dead, but seriously injured, and he is hiding to recuperate, so he will not be able to appear in front of everyone for the time being."

"That's what Xun Yu said?" Li Yunxin's eyes moved slightly, neither surprised nor sighed, and looked at Li Xiangyang as usual.

Li Xiangyang met Li Yunxin's gaze and nodded, "That's right, that's what Xun Yu meant, but it's for the sake of stabilizing us, or it's not clear if it's true."

Li Xiangyang didn't see anything in Xun Yu, so he replied honestly.

"If you want me to say, the King of Chu has always been good to us. Let's just listen to Xun Yu's order honestly. Why bother with Emperor Yao's order? He can't take care of this now." Li Jingqiong revealed a secret.

A few days ago, Li Yao had already contacted the three royal children, told them that Li Yuan was dead, asked them to submit to him, and promised a lot of money to let them secretly subdue the officials of Chu Palace for him at this time, and send them here later. Those who take over Lingzhou get ready.

"Li Xiangyang, what do you mean?" Hearing Li Jingqiong's words, Li Yunxin squinted her eyes.

However, Li Xiangyang frowned even deeper. When he received Li Yao's letter, his mind became more active.

If the king of Chu is really dead, and he is a child of the royal family, if he can subdue more than half of the officials of the Chu palace and get Yaohuang's approval, and then work harder to get Yaohuang to support him as the governor of Lingzhou, he can take over again. Maybe Chu Wangfu.

Seeing Li Xiangyang's expression, Li Yunxin knew what he was thinking, smiled and said:

"Don't forget, there is still a problem now, how will Xun Yu and the others solve the Huanzhou Alliance?"

Li Xiangyang's face darkened. Indeed, the Huanzhou Alliance must be ready to attack Lingzhou now. If Yaohuang's reinforcements haven't arrived, the Huanzhou Alliance will attack here, and everything will stop.

"So what are your thoughts?" Li Xiangyang stared at Li Yunxin and asked.

"My thoughts?" Li Yunxin lazily stretched her waist and said with a smile:
"The most important thing now is whether King Chu is dead or not!

Only when I understand this matter can I think about what to do next. "

"I agree!" Li Jingqiong supported.

Li Xiangyang looked at the two silently, and finally nodded slowly.

....................................

At the moment, in Chu Palace, Xun Yu is also receiving three people, Li Mu, the royal venerable at the late stage of Fazun Realm, Jiang Lao, and Li Sheng, who are at the peak of Tianwu Realm.

In the room, Li Mu took out a gilded letter and handed it to Xun Yu. Li Mu, who was always kind and kind, said seriously:

"Prefect Xun, you are the most trusted person of the King of Chu, you should know whether the King of Chu is dead or not.

The old man just asked, is the King of Chu still alive? "

This letter was written by Li Yao to Li Mu, and the contents are self-evident.

Li Sheng was expressionless, and also took out the same letter, and said: "Prefect Xun, we were sent by the former emperor to protect the king of Chu. If the king of Chu is still alive, we will never betray him, but if the king of Chu is really If he dies, the situation in Lingzhou will fall into a real crisis, we can only cooperate with the royal family to control Lingzhou, and we must not let other forces occupy Lingzhou again."

Elder Jiang also showed anxiety in his eyes: "Prefect Xun, we are very worried about the safety of the King of Chu. If you give us a letter of approval, don't you even believe us?"

Xun Yu looked at the two letters, his eyes flickered slightly, he cupped his hands and said solemnly: "Actually, if the three of you don't come to look for Xun Yu, Xun Yu will look for the three of you. Your Highness is indeed not dead."

The eyes of Li Mu and the three of them flashed, and they all showed a hint of smile.

"Okay, this old man knows that King Chu will not die." Old Jiang smiled the most happily.

"Then what does the King of Chu want us to do now?" Li Mu's serious face eased. Since Li Yuan is not dead, it means that some plan is being implemented.

Li Sheng also nodded.

"Now that the army of the Huanzhou Alliance has reached the border, His Highness needs you to secretly go to Lingyun Mansion to follow the arrangement of Lord Li Sili." Xun Yu said in a deep voice.

"it is good!"

At the same time, Liu Qingquan's secret room guarded by Linghong Mansion also received a letter. After reading the letter, he burst out laughing and flew towards Lingyun Mansion.

..........................................

The next morning, Xu Bao from the Black Flood Dragon Gang rushed to Huanlin City overnight under the leadership of a strong man in the Tianwu Realm.

"You said that Yang Zaitian, the great elder of Lie Yanzong, contacted you secretly and wanted to join us in the Huanzhou Alliance?"

In the camp of the Black Flood Dragon Gang, Xu Kuang looked at Xu Bao who was standing in the center, with his head held high and his chest held high, and said in surprise that the air of complacency was about to overflow.

"Yes, father, when Yang Zaitian learned of the death of the King of Chu, he was willing to abandon the darkness and turn to the light, and join us in the Huanzhou Alliance." Seeing the shocked expressions of Xu Shenglong, Xu Hu, Xu Tian and other brothers beside him, Xu Bao did not know how comfortable it was. , said proudly.

Unexpectedly, staying in Huanzhou can make great contributions!

Even Xu Fengwu, who was at the side, was a little taken aback. Lie Yanzong Yang Zaitian wanted to join the Huanzhou Alliance?

Xu Tian didn't believe it at first: "Lie Yanzong was the first to take refuge in King Chu, how could he be willing to take refuge in us? I don't believe it!"

Facing Xu Tian's disbelief, Xu Bao snorted coldly: "Hmph, when did I say that Lie Yanzong would take refuge in us, what I said was that Yang Zaitian was willing to take refuge in us."

"Could it be that Yang Zaitian wants to betray Lie Yanzong? To betray Liu Qingquan?" Xu Shenglong asked in surprise.

"No, it was Yang Zaitian who wanted to get rid of Liu Qingquan and Liu Chenfeng and regain control of the Lie Yanzong. Yang Zaitian suspected that Liu Qingquan was responsible for the death of their Yang family lineage, so he hated him to the bone. Yanzong's spies..." Xu Bao raised his head and said arrogantly, and then spoke out the grievances between Yang Zaitian and Liu Qingquan.

When Xu Bao explained that Yang Zaitian and Liu Qingquan had a deep blood feud, everyone present knew what was going on, and they believed it in their hearts.

"I see, this Liu Qingquan really deserves to die. If I were Yang Zaitian, I would kill Liu Qingquan too." Niu Zhan behind Xu Fengwu agreed with Yang Zaitian very much.

"But why did Yang Zaitian contact you instead of his father directly?" Xu Tian looked at Xu Bao, feeling very jealous in his heart.

When Xu Bao heard this, he immediately became angry: "Xu Tian, ​​what do you mean? Why can't Yang Zaitian contact me?"

"I'm just curious, is it okay to ask?"

"You are curious, you are curious every day, if Yang Zaitian is not looking for me, not our Black Dragon Gang, but other forces, do you have to ask why Yang Zaitian is looking for them instead of us!" Xu Bao directly yelled at Xu Tian .

Xu Tian blushed from anger, pointed at Xu Bao but was powerless to refute.

Xu Shenglong looked at Xu Bao with a gleam of envy: "Except for our Heijiao Gang, our four top powers are all aristocratic families. Their attitude may not be good, so it is normal for Yang Zaitian to find our Heijiao Gang, and we were all benefiting at that time. Only the fourth brother is still in Huanzhou, so Yang Zaitian can only look for the fourth brother."

When the others heard Xu Shenglong's explanation, they all nodded in agreement, and this was the only explanation.

Xu Bao said: "Father, Yang Zaitian said that as long as the Huanzhou Alliance agrees to help him get rid of Liu Qingquan and Liu Chenfeng, in order to express his sincerity, he can first cooperate with our Huanzhou Alliance to solve the Lingyun Mansion Ma Chao, Xu Chu, and ten generals. Wan Dajun!"

Everyone's expressions were shocked, they were still discussing how to take down Lingyun Mansion last night, and now they are coming soon.

Xu Fengwu frowned. The reason why his father and Xu Shenglong believed in Yang Zaitian so quickly, apart from what Liu Qingquan did to Yang Zaitian, there was another most important factor was Li Yuan's death!

This made it so easy for them to trust Yang Zaitian.

But Xu Fengwu knew that Li Yuan was not dead at all.

So Yang Zaitian is probably a trap, luring the Huanzhou Alliance into the trap.

When Xu Fengwu was sure that this was Li Yuan's goal, she unconsciously looked at Cheng Yaojin, and when she met Cheng Yaojin's half-smiling eyes, her mind was shaken!
No, Li Yuan has another purpose!
He is forcing her, forcing the Heijiao Gang to fight back!
