Heaven's Path

()..om At this time, Donghai Diao Sou, who had been silent by the side, said slowly: "In my opinion, what Shangguan brother and the prince hold is reasonable. However, just being reasonable is not enough. If Shangguan brother can come up with a way to find out The so-called behind-the-scenes people can't be better, but this matter can't be dragged on forever. Brother Shangguan, what do you think?"

Shangguan Luoyu snorted and said, "I'm thinking of a solution, but I can't give you an exact time."

Hearing this, Dong Hai Diao Sou raised his eyebrows, and said gloomily, "Could it be that this matter will drag on for 80 or [-] years? By then, you will be dead, and it will be nothing. The old man is right. "

Shangguan Luoyu's lifespan has already been more than 200 years. Based on the 300-year lifespan of a Golden Core cultivator, it is true that he cannot live for 100 years.However, the most taboo thing for practitioners is to discuss the military solution in public. People who are near the end of their lifespan will inevitably feel uneasy, while those with a long lifespan will be complacent.

Shangguan Luoyu's face darkened, and he said calmly: "It is true that my lifespan is not as long as yours, but you may not be able to die. I see that three of your three souls and seven souls are lingering, and it seems to be bad luck. Senior Diaosou, be careful."

Donghai Diaosen touched a soft nail, sneered a few times and stopped talking.Jiang Yuheng watched the two sides come and go quietly on the surface, swords were on the verge of breaking out, but his heart was turbulent. Gradually, his eyes gradually turned cold, and he said coldly: "Do you have my Majesty in your heart? Jiuqing and Sixiang actually came for a trivial matter. The little things that make you earn life and death. There was a battle report from the border yesterday, saying that Ma Qingchuan was killed in battle. He had just succeeded to the Jiuqing for less than five years and died for the country. More than half of the dozen or so princes who acted as warlords died. How magnificent. You are born This group of people who are rich in wine and food will only compete and be jealous in the temple, and they will fight each other for a little bit of petty convenience, it really makes my teeth cold."

Jiang Yuheng spoke eloquently, and everyone below fell silent, as quiet as if a silver needle could be heard falling to the ground.After a long time, Jiang Ruowang said softly: "Father, don't be angry. My child is willing to go out on behalf of my father and lead the Sitian Pavilion reserve army stationed in Longshang to pacify Lengyue Kingdom and relieve my father's worries."

These words were beyond everyone's expectations. No one present had expected that a cowardly and gentle person would choose to go to the front of the two armies with such a firm attitude.Jiang Wuya was the first to stand up to object, "Father, my elder brother is the prince of Xiliang Kingdom, how can you say that you will go to the expedition, even if you want to go to the expedition on behalf of the father, the child should serve on your behalf, elder brother is still honest It’s best to bring it at home, lest you be buried in the sun and break the heart of your delicate princess.”

Jiang Wuya is the most talented of the second generation of the Jiang family. Although Jiang Ruowang is the crown prince, and his cultivation level is higher than Jiang Wuya's, but they all come from medicine jars. In terms of real ability, he really can't beat Jiang Wuya. boundless.Hearing 26th brother's taunting, Jiang Ruowang muttered for a long time without even farting.

Jiang Yuheng saw that everyone's focus of debate had shifted from the assassins to the border war, but in the final analysis, there were still two groups of people arguing, and now the two obvious factions were the young faction headed by Jiang Wuya, and the moderate faction headed by the prince.

He thought for a while, looked up at Jiang Wuya, and said, "According to your opinion, how should we deal with that assassin?"

Jiang Wuya showed a slight smile, and said, "Father, have you forgotten what we are best at? You don't need to worry about this matter, and leave it to the child to handle it."

Jiang Yuheng let out a long breath and leaned his back on the Black Iron Throne. A trace of coldness made him sober, and he said in a deep voice, "This matter ends here, and the assassin has full authority to handle it with Wu Ya."

Jiang Ruowang felt cold, and trembled involuntarily. He knew that from today onwards, he, the prince, would exist in name only. He thought he still had some trust in his father's heart, but judging from this incident, he never had any. Gained the trust of Jiang Yuheng.Thinking of this, Jiang Ruowang immediately lowered his head like a frost-beaten eggplant.

Xuan Yinzi, who was far away from the corner of the hall, sighed softly, this subtle expression did not attract everyone's attention.The Donghai Diaosen was not affected by the defeat in the Gongdou just now, and he still looked intoxicated to himself, squinting at Hongluan in front of him.

Just when almost everyone thought this matter was over, suddenly Shangguan Luoyu walked a few steps, came to the middle of the hall, bowed solemnly and said, "Your Majesty, I dare not agree with your resolution just now."

Everyone focused their eyes on this middle-aged man whose sideburns were already covered with strands of white hair. According to his cultivation in the late stage of Jindan, if he cultivated his mind and spirit on a daily basis, he would not be so old.

The relaxed expression that just appeared on Jiang Yuheng's face was wiped away, replaced by fury, he shouted: "Shangguan Luoyu, I see that you have repeatedly accommodated you for the sake of the leader of the nine ministers, you have done this thing like an assassin! Oops, I have lost fifty of my monks, and I haven’t punished you yet, but you have gotten worse and dared to question this old man, are you really so arrogant?”

Shangguan Luoyu raised his head, his wrinkled face was full of tenacity, like an old plum in the cold wind, he said word by word: "Your Majesty treats me generously, I don't know. The last moment of loyalty to the Xiliang Kingdom will last until death. Please listen to the old minister's words, Your Majesty."

Although Jiang Yuheng was full of displeasure, but because Shangguan Luoyu was the elder of Sitian Pavilion, he really wanted to show some kindness. Before he ascended the throne, Shangguan Luoyu was already Sitian He is an important person.He suppressed his anger and squeezed out a few words between his teeth, "Say something quickly."

"The veteran believes that we can use the assassin as bait to lure out the people behind it."

As soon as this remark came out, almost everyone showed displeasure expressions, including the 26th prince Jiang Wuya who had been supporting him just now.He looked impatiently at Shangguan Luoyu's slightly aged figure, and let out a reluctant snort from his nose.

"How do you know that the person behind it will definitely be drawn out?" Xuan Yinzi expressed his impatience for Jiang Wuya. He disrupted the situation like this, and the situation in Sitian Pavilion

The pattern of power changed again, making Jiang Wuya take a deep look at him.

"I don't know, but I know that this is the only way to attract the person behind him. If you hand over the person to His Highness 26, I'm afraid it will be the same as executing him directly. Wouldn't the fifty people die in vain?" Shangguan Luo Yu said silently, although he didn't know what Jiang Wuya was doing secretly, but he knew that the other party often went back and forth between Longshang and Tianshui City, and there were always strange people around Jiang Wuya. There was an aura of death on the person's body, as if he had been dead for a long time, but it couldn't be seen from the outside at all.

But Shangguan Luoyu made a serious mistake. In the hall, he was the only one who cared about the shady behind the assassin, he was the only one who was arguing with everyone in a matter-of-fact manner, and he was the only one who did not tie up with another force and fell into the center of the power struggle. He was the only one who dedicated all his thoughts to Xiliang, a precarious country.However, such a person is pathetic, and is not accepted by any party, and even the king has aversion to this inflexible person.

"Enough, Wu Ya, handle it yourself, don't bring this up in front of me." Jiang Yuheng swung his sleeves, and a gust of wind blew in, making the people standing below shake. He was really angry today. Unintentionally, he actually released his breath as the peak state of the Nascent Soul in the middle stage.Shangguan Luoyu stood at the front, and in the strong air current, he couldn't stand upright and fell backwards.

Xuan Yinzi did not know when he came behind Shangguan Luoyu, he stretched out his hand and pressed on Shangguan Luoyu's life gate, passing through a trace of spiritual energy, making the other party barely stand still.Shangguan Luoyu turned his head and looked at the other party wearily, and said numbly: "Thank you for your help."

Xuan Yinzi smiled, and said: "Your strength, I admire you." This sentence has no beginning and no end, so that everyone who heard it can't figure it out, but it hit Shangguan Luoyu's heart.He is the only one who knows his loyalty to the Jiang family, but this loyalty has been repeatedly questioned by the other party. Since the attack on Taibai Peak, his authority has almost been reduced in the past 20 years.In the past six months, Hongluan has been trampled under his feet, but for the sake of his heart, he insisted on staying instead of leaving like Qiu Yanting did back then.

Shangguan Luoyu didn't know what to say, his dry lips parted weakly, and he sighed sadly: "I didn't expect that I would be so depressed. It's really a young man who hates the sky and hates the sky when he is young, and he is sad and afraid of the road when he is old." Said After that, he laughed twice and exited the Palace of Freedom.

Looking at Shangguan Luoyu's back, Jiang Ruowang suddenly felt sad. He muttered for a long time, and finally said, "Father, are you going to let him step down like this?"

Jiang Yuheng looked at him contemptuously, snorted, and said loudly: "That's how a waste should end up. Do I have to send him out in person? You all step down, Wu Ya, you stay."

Except for Jiang Ruowang, everyone present had their own thoughts, wishing to go down sooner.After a period of chaos, the Zizai Palace returned to calm, the night outside the window was thick, and the two people in the room looked at each other.

Jiang Yuheng took the lead and said: "How about the things that were entrusted to you? The North has been defeated again and again, and Jin Guang has been severely injured and needs to be recuperated. Hey, these wastes are chatting endlessly at home about trivial matters. Really! There's no reason for that."

Jiang Ruowang said solemnly: "Father worries about the country and the people, it's really hard work."
