The demon world I designed.

Chapter 769: Storm in the Capital ()

"Hey, it's rare for you, old guy, to think of me here?"

In the British Duke's Mansion, Duke Zhang Xun was surprised to see the head of the Yuchi family come to his door. This stubborn old man had almost cut off all contact with them since their group possessed ghosts. He had no contact with them for a whole year, but he actually came to his door today. .

Old Yuchi smiled bitterly: "Isn't there nothing we can do?"

The other party immediately laughed when he heard this.

Since the birth of the ghost temple, under His Majesty's pressure, most families have been tempted to join. However, the Yuchi family and the Hong family have become heretics because of their self-righteousness. Before becoming ghosts, everyone naturally had resistance in their hearts, but After becoming a ghost, his butt became crooked, and he was naturally displeased with the family that still stood firm.

However, both the Yuchi family and the Hong family have a very high status in His Majesty's heart, so even if they are unhappy, they can't do anything.

This mutual dissatisfaction has lasted for more than a year, but this old guy finally couldn't help but come to visit?

Zhang Xun felt secretly happy. He had heard a few days ago that the vassal families of the Yuchi family were dissatisfied and complained. As the ghost generals became more and more powerful, all the vassal families had different intentions.

Originally, it was the same. Seeing the families next to them taking advantage of the wind, and seeing some vassal families gaining such powerful power and easily surpassing the extraordinary, how could you not be jealous?

Your Yuchi family is noble, but the people below are dissatisfied. He wanted to watch a show at that time. Yesterday, he heard that all the vassal family members of the Yuchi family gathered at the Yuchi family, obviously preparing to make a big fuss. He was still holding melon seeds and preparing to watch the fun.

Is it really such a good thing? He didn't quite believe it anyway.

But the situation is different now. According to Mu Hongqing, the capital is about to be in chaos, and among those left behind in the capital, the British Duke Zhang Xun holds the military power of the Forbidden Army!

"I told you a long time ago that His Majesty is not harming us. Becoming a ghost general is not as scary as you think." Zhang Xun sat at the top and said in a sincere tone: "Look at me, I have a big personality. Change? Our bloodline family relies on the blood of demons to obtain power that mortals dare not expect, and we are taking risks. This ghost will possess us for a reason! "

Old Yuchi looked at the other party's proud smiling face and couldn't help but twitch his face.

Old Yuchi curled his lips slightly when he heard this, mutual benefit? Have a happy reunion at last?

Is it really that easy?

Those ghost generals under King Xiang are all fierce ghosts who came out of the fighting among the resentful spirits. But they came to the earth to strengthen your body, and when the time comes, they will leave obediently?

With his own temper, even if he starved to death, he would not come to ask for help from this old guy. After all, with his status in His Majesty's mind, as long as he was willing to become a ghost general, the treatment that the Emperor could give him would definitely not be less. He didn't have to look at anything at all. People's faces.

These aristocratic families have long since become man-eating monsters, no different from demons wearing human skin.

I think back then, among the eight major countries in the capital, the Yuchi family ranked fourth, and his British family was not even ranked among them. Now he actually calls me old guy in front of his face. It is really a blessing of the times.

"Sit inside."

"Living in symbiosis with them, they nourish the spirit body, and we nourish the physical body. It is mutually beneficial. When the time comes, they will naturally leave, and at that time both parties will benefit. What's wrong with this?"

As for the other party saying that he hasn't changed much, that's even more nonsense. Doesn't he know? The capital is fine inside, but disappearances occur frequently in the outer cities. Who is responsible?

"Is there no news from Your Majesty?" Old Yuchi finally spoke.

"Your Majesty is far away in Yundu to attend the Celestial Masters Conference. Naturally, he won't be able to come back in a short time." Zhang Xun said with a smile: "And I heard that the place where Your Majesty was arranged by Yundu was the palace of the previous dynasty. This means that Yundu We have also seen the situation clearly, and maybe in the coming year, we will all move to Yundu collectively."

"Really?" Old Yuchi nodded slightly. It seems that many generals are looking forward to this. After all, although the capital city is well built, it is a bitter and cold place. How can the terrain of Yundu be as good as that of Yundu?

"You're not here simply to inquire about His Majesty's news, are you?" The other party smiled and said, "But yes, if you change your mind, it's never too late to mention it to His Majesty at any time."

Old Yuchi shook his head when he heard this: "The position of our Yuchi family will not change." "Oh?" Zhang Xun raised his eyebrows when he heard this: "Then what are you doing here today?"

"You should have heard about my family's affairs. Those restless people below are now on the verge of rebellion."

"I've heard a lot." Zhang Xun drank tea leisurely and couldn't help complaining in his heart: Who is unlucky enough to follow you and not want to rebel? The opportunity for chickens and dogs to ascend to heaven is right in front of you. If you miss it, no one will be in a hurry.

"We are old friends, so we came to see my old brother for help."

"What can I help you with?" Zhang Xun asked curiously.

"My subordinates are not of the same mind as the Yuchi family, but there is nothing I can do about it. After all, I have served the Yuchi family for so many years. It is unjustifiable not to give an explanation. Your Majesty. I really can't bear to ask for this old face. I hope my brother can help me." One hand."

"You want me to open a ghost temple for those vassal family members of your Yuchi family?" Zhang Xun understood immediately.

"There is really nothing we can do." Old Yuchi smiled bitterly and said, "As you can see, that group of people just barely rebelled collectively. My Yuchi family has almost lost all face."

Zhang Xun immediately rolled his eyes when he heard this: Didn't you ask for it yourself?

However, he felt that the other party would also find a way down and quietly come to beg him. He would first arrange for ghost generals to possess the vassal family, and then when His Majesty comes back, given His Majesty's affection for the Yuchi family, he would definitely give him a way down and persuade the other party to join again. , when the time came to save face, the Yuchi family borrowed Poxia's donkey and took advantage of the situation to join.

Thinking of this, Zhang Xun rubbed his chin. If the Yuchi family wanted to join, it would only be a matter of time before they rose again. Selling favors at this time would not be a loss.

"Opening a ghost temple is of great importance. I have to discuss it with the other guards in the capital."

"It should, it should," Old Yuchi said with a smile, "I'm just asking if my brother is in trouble."

"It's nothing to be embarrassed about." The other party waved his hand and said carelessly: "Opening the ghost temple is not a small matter, but after all, I am the highest-ranking military officer in the capital. I have priority in everything, even if there are some who are not forward-looking. Your objections can also help you get things done."

"Thank you very much!" Old Yuchi suddenly laughed and saluted.

"You are so polite, we have been brothers for so many years." Zhang Xun laughed with satisfaction. The Yuchi family's favors are not easy to get.

Old Yuchi was confused in his heart. He and Mu Hongqing calculated last night that if they want to control the ghost temple, they must have sufficient troops. Zhang Xun, who is in charge of the Forbidden Army, is the most suspicious candidate, because if it is someone else, he must face it head-on. It would be much more difficult to counter Zhang Xun's imperial army.

Or is it someone hiding inside, secretly controlling the military?

"I wonder when we can arrange it?" Old Yuchi said: "It's best to arrange it as much as possible. Those old things are sitting in my house, and I don't know how many people are laughing."

"Hahaha, you, you didn't do it yourself." The other party said with a smile: "In this case, I will go to the ghost temple now, find the priests and General Luo who are in charge of the temple, and then say hello to other aristocratic families. , it shouldn’t be a big problem, if everything goes well, we can arrange it for you in the evening.”

"Okay, okay, I'll leave it to you."

Zhang Xun saw the guests off with satisfaction, while the head of the Yuchi family hurried home and informed Mu Hongqing of the information.

For a moment, both Mu Hongqing and Liu Yu were hesitant, because if the internal agent was not Zhang Xun, what would the other party use to control the capital in a short period of time?

It is true that His Majesty's army has all gone to the border, but the Yin army is marching very fast. If they receive the news, they will be back in three days at the latest. If you want to capture the Zimu Ghost Temple in the capital, you have to use lightning speed. It's better to take it down than cover your ears.

Who else in the capital has this ability?
