Sword Qi of the heavens

Chapter 178 A Guest Visit
The news that Ye Liuyun and Si Gu Jian entered the Northern Qi Dynasty quickly spread throughout the world.

If Sigu Jian announced the alliance between Dongyi City and Northern Qi, and sent a large number of disciples of the ninth rank to leave to help Northern Qi win the war, it would be considered extremely rare and important news.

Then, Ye Liuyun was defeated by Li Changlan.

The death of one of the four great masters who were recognized as invincible completely shocked the world.

Compared with the whole country cheering, from the high officials of the imperial court to the common people, the whole country celebrates, the fighting spirit is high, and the national power once again ushered in a small peak in Northern Qi.

The depression in Nanqing was seen by everyone.

The eldest princess Li Yunrui was taken hostage, the court commander Yan Xiaoyi, a nine-rank archer, rebelled, all the missions led by Fan Xian were detained, Xiao En and Uesugi Tiger returned to the army, Ye Liuyun died again, and lost to the real realm It was in the hands of Grandmaster Li Changlan.

These bad news came one after another, hitting Nanqing's confidence in fighting against Northern Qi again and again.

Emperor Qing faced such a situation.

It was also the first time he felt a strong sense of pressure and frustration since he took the throne.

late at night.

Emperor Qing sat alone in the hall, his clothes slightly open.

He slowly rubbed his temples with his fingers, looking out the window from time to time, and sighed.

"After being an emperor for so many years, I don't have an opponent who is really qualified to compete with me. I may be a little too arrogant. I always feel that I can control everything in my hands, and it is unreasonable to ignore the existence of some people in the world. .”

"Once some opportunities are missed, it may be difficult to find suitable opportunities in the future."

Emperor Qing recalled the scene when he met Li Changlan in his mind.

He never imagined that since Li Changlan wanted to attack Nanqing, why didn't he choose to do it in the carriage as a great master, but tossed and tossed, and it took so much trouble.

Immediately, Emperor Qing quickly realized again.

The reason why he firmly believed that Li Changlan was a ninth rank, or that he was a short distance away from the grand master, and could not pose a threat to himself, so he chose to let him act in the capital and observe secretly, was it because Li Changlan did not choose to act at that time, showing that even if he Half hostility?
But if he was really a great master, why didn't he choose to make a move when he first entered the capital?
Emperor Qing frowned, thought for a while, and quickly recalled the specific information related to Li Changlan collected in the past years.

"No, maybe Li Changlan doesn't even know Ye Qingmei at all. He is very likely to be the same as Ye Qingmei, and he is also a person who is born with knowledge, or a person with Tianmai!"

Emperor Qing's eyes flickered slightly, and he felt that this guess was closer to the truth.

Compared with the other masters, Li Changlan's methods and desires are too obvious. In addition, he doesn't care about many taboos of people in this era, and only cares about his inner thoughts.

No matter how you look at it, it is somewhat similar to the former Ye Qingmei.

"If so, I should ask that one to take action..."

……

The war between Nanqing and Beiqi broke out in an all-round way.

Xiao En, Uesugi Tiger, Yan Xiaoyi, three ninth-rank masters lead a team to attack Nanqing.

Supplemented by several ninth-rank masters from Dongyi City, the number of ninth-rank masters in Northern Qi was almost crushed, making Nanqing a little out of breath.

In the previous war.

The land of a state that Nanqing snatched from Northern Qi was once again taken back by Northern Qi.

Of course, the high-ranking generals of the two countries understand that ever since Li Changlan, the grand master, began to break the rules and involved wars at the national level, the real victory or defeat has never been with the army, but with the top experts of the two countries. game.

Considering Ye Liuyun's death, there is only one great master left in Nanqing.

On the other side of the Northern Qi Dynasty, there were Sigu Jian in Dongyi City, Li Changlan who stepped on Ye Liuyun's position, and Tianyi Kuhe, who was originally a member of the Northern Qi royal family.

The whole of Nanqing showed a weak and decadent trend, and the army was even more sluggish.

In just a few months.

Northern Qi's army was already approaching the capital of Nanqing, Kyoto.

Faced with the continuous retreat of the Nanqing army, this was almost expected by everyone.

Even if Emperor Qing had grown suspicious of Chen Pingping, and gradually suppressed and restricted the power of the Inspection Institute, it was too late.

What's more, under such circumstances, if Chen Pingping is really moved again.

There are also military figures who are qualified to lead the expedition, and it is estimated that only the veteran general Qin Ye is left.

At that time, the decline of the entire Qing Kingdom will inevitably accelerate again, and even the surviving officials in the entire court will try their best to excuse it.

after all.

Wars at the national level have long since ceased to be intrigues.

Danzhou.

Now Danzhou has been occupied by Northern Qi, or more precisely Li Changlan.

Compared with the desolation and bleakness in other places in Nanqing, the lives of ordinary people in Danzhou have been greatly affected, and they still live the same days as before.

Anyway, Li Changlan and Fan Xian have lived in Danzhou for more than ten years.

The residents of Danzhou have long been familiar with these two people who are arrogant. Compared with the Emperor Qing who has never seen him and lives high in the capital, it is easier to get along with his own people.

not to mention.

The war here is by no means just a friction and temptation between Nanqing and Beiqi. Both sides are fighting with all their strength, with the goal of unifying the world.

There are clear instructions from Zhan Doudou.

Then handed over to Xiao En, Uesugi Tiger, Shen Zhong, Yan Xiaoyi and others who obeyed Li Changlan's words, most of the army obeyed the military regulations and did not dare to do anything against civilians.

Although these people are from the military, they can't be regarded as good people.

All of them are ruthless and ruthless, and they will never tolerate the disobedience of their subordinates.

If there were some officers and soldiers who harassed the civilians in Nanqing in private, basically they would not escape the fate of being publicly executed after they were discovered.

therefore.

In the cities that Nanqing was captured along the way, not many would choose to hold back.

Inside the Fan residence.

Li Changlan was still lying on the bamboo lounge chair made by Fan Xian himself, many years had passed, but it was still intact.

Haitang Duoduo squatted on the ground boredly, holding a pastry in her hand.

She looked at Li Changlan expressionlessly, and asked, "Has it been almost a month? Our Northern Qi army is only one step away from breaking through Nanqing's kingdom, so why don't you just stay here and do nothing?"

Li Changlan opened his eyes slightly, and asked back, "What are you doing?"

Seeing that Li Changlan didn't seem to be joking with her, Haitang Duoduo put the pastry on the ground, patted the food residue on her hands, and said, "Si Gu Jian didn't make a move because he was guarding against Emperor Qing's sudden move. I can understand that." .”

"But you, a great master, spend so much time in Danzhou, isn't it unreasonable?"

Li Changlan sighed, and said: "Nanqing's army retreated one after another, and the capital was besieged. They can't hold on for long, and their defeat is certain. Why do you have to be so anxious?"

Haitang Duoduo said unconvinced: "Then you can't just waste it like this. Recently, Fan Xian was in charge of persuading the surrender on the front line. I heard that many officials in Nanqing have wavered."

"But according to the news from our spies in the city, Emperor Qing's side is extremely quiet."

"Don't talk about rectifying the court, or mobilizing the last remaining forces to counterattack, he seems to have given up on Nanqing, ignoring government affairs at all, don't you think this is a bit strange?"

Li Changlan smiled and said, "As I said, the victory or defeat of this war does not depend on the army at all."

"Not in the army?" Haitang Duoduo was stunned by Li Changlan's words, "Not in the army, where is it? My master Ku He wants to stay in Beiqi to protect my little nephew. There are so many army generals sent to the front line. Gathered a number of ninth-rank masters from Dongyi City."

"If Emperor Qing has other plans, do we need to redeploy the manpower?"

Li Changlan stood up and flicked his sleeves lightly, and untied the long sword at his waist.

"Facing a master of the level of a grand master, it is useless to send more ninth grades. It still needs a grand master at the same level to make a move."

The voice fell.

Li Changlan lifted the long sword and walked forward quickly.

Seeing that Li Changlan made it clear that he was too lazy to explain, Haitang Duoduo couldn't help frowning slightly, pulled on his shoes, and quickly followed behind Li Changlan.

"Hey, Li Changlan, although you are a great master, we are good friends who have been together for a long time. For the sake of friends, why don't you explain to me?"

Haitang Duoduo just raised her hand and trotted for two steps.

Li Changlan in front of her stopped suddenly, and Haitang Duoduo bumped into Li Changlan's back carelessly, almost being hit.

"Li Changlan, did you do it on purpose?!"

Beach Duoduo rubbed her forehead and was about to ask a few questions.

next moment.

She immediately closed her mouth, staring ahead nervously.

On the open space in front of the gate of Fan Mansion.

A commoner man came side by side with an imposing middle-aged man.

"Li Changlan, we meet again!"
