Being blocked by Song Que along the way, Mei Jian and Ju Jian were so anxious that they almost cried. Fortunately, everything was still in time.

Mei Jian and Ju Jian arrived, and no one stayed here too long.

The group of people also headed directly in the direction of Yipintang.

......

at the same time

Within Liyang

Shangyin Academy

Xu Weixiong’s exclusive courtyard

In the courtyard, there was a figure who was practicing martial arts unremittingly.

When he returned to Beiliang this time, Xu Weixiong only did one thing. He went to Tingchao Pavilion and stayed there for a month. He looked at the world's martial arts, learned about various martial arts techniques, and broadened his horizons.

The realm was subsequently improved, and he jumped to the peak of the Innate Vajra Realm. Then he took a top-quality elixir that increased the true energy, comprehended the world, and broke through to the Grandmaster's Zhixuan Realm.

Xu Weixiong has this kind of character that refuses to admit defeat and becomes more courageous with every setback. In just two months, he practiced martial arts from [-] to [-] every day. At the same time, he read various martial arts secret books and understood the ways of martial arts.

In two months, it was like a completely different person.

The blue bird still stood aside.

She still followed Xu Weixiong back to Shangyin Academy. This time, Xu Weixiong took the initiative, saying that she really needed a trustworthy person to help her contact her, so she brought Qingniao back with her.

In his spare time, perhaps due to the influence of Xu Weixiong, or perhaps because he had a direction in mind for his efforts, Qingniao also started practicing hard.

Her own talent is actually very good, but what she lacks is precipitation and understanding.

Since following Xu Weixiong, she has more time.

Now it has reached the peak of the first level, and is only one step away from the innate Vajra realm.

Normally at this time, Blue Bird would also practice by himself, but it was different today.

Empress Murong is here again.

"Second Miss, Your Majesty wants to see you."

After hearing this, Xu Weixiong also stopped, looked at the blue bird with doubtful eyes, and murmured as if he was unsure: "Your Majesty?"

Blue Bird nodded and explained:

"His Majesty is already in the Yude Hall, and it seems that he wants to see you directly this time."

Xu Weixiong was thoughtful. If he wanted her to help deliver a message last time and let Beiliang pay attention to the movements in the north, then what was the purpose this time?

"Get ready, take a shower and change clothes."

No matter why, Xu Weixiong also needs to see him.

Last time

It is also a good thing for Beiliang.

Qingniao nodded and said: "It's ready."

Xu Weixiong also nodded and went to take a shower and change clothes.

Yude Hall

In the vast hall, she was wearing a long white gold-edged brocade dress. The top-quality fabric was embroidered with a five-clawed golden dragon with gold thread. With her noble temperament, she fully displayed her imperial majesty.

Xu Weixiong walked in from outside the palace, looked at Empress Murong who was already waiting, and bowed respectfully.

"Your Majesty, my maid Xu Weixiong, is here to see you."

After taking a look at Xu Weixiong, Murong Qingrou was slightly surprised and said, "I didn't expect that the last time I met you, you were only in the middle stage of the Innate Vajra Realm, but now you have already broken through to the Grandmaster's Zhixuan Realm."

"Sure enough, the tiger father has no dog daughter."

Seeing that Xu Weixiong was still saluting, Murong Qingrou waved his hands calmly and said: "No need to be more polite. There are only two of you and me here now, so there is no need to be too formal. Come and sit."

Murong Qingrou was sitting on the mat.

There was also a game of Go in front of him, with many pieces already on it.

"Yes, thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty."

Xu Weixiong responded without too much restraint. He came to Murong Qingrou and sat down.

After taking a look at the chess game on the chessboard, Xu Weixiong paused and murmured: "Zhenlong chess game?"

Murong nodded softly and smiled calmly: "It seems that you have also studied this. Why don't you accompany me for the next game?"

Xu Weixiong nodded. Although he didn't know what Murong Qingrou meant, he still agreed.

Xu Weixiong plays the black piece first, but is the lagging side. Murong Qingrou plays the white piece as the defensive side.

Black and white began to fight quickly, and the two of them immediately fell into it.

Blink of an eye

The chessboard was already covered with chess pieces. Xu Weixiong’s last piece fell. Murong Qingrou calmly put the chess pieces in his hand back into the chess basket, with a slight smile on his face and said:

"I lost."

Xu Weixiong's expression was calm, but he glanced at Murong Qingrou with a hint of meaning, "The number of chess pieces your Majesty took are all on Leigu Mountain. Su Chen must be the same as the person who laid out the layout of Leigu Mountain."

She has studied the Zhenlong chess game countless times since the news about Su Chen came out.

I am even more familiar with this game of chess.

Murong Qingrou's smile remained unchanged, she looked at Xu Weixiong and said calmly: "It seems that you really understand him very well."

"Isn't your method the same as his?"

After a plain inquiry, Xu Weixiong's expression dimmed slightly, and he asked Murong Qingrou again: "Your Majesty, are you here for Su Chen?"

At this point, Xu Weixiong should have guessed it.

Murong Qingrou also nodded generously and continued to ask:

"In the battle of Xueyue City, Su Chen suddenly appeared and killed the cavalry general Deng Mao, completely turning the tide of the battle."

"And with super high medical skills, he helped Baili Dongjun recover, healed the injuries of everyone in Xueyuecheng, and turned Xueyuecheng into a safe place."

"You should know all these things, right?"

Xu Weixiong looked at Murong Qingrou in confusion. She didn't want to mention any more news about Su Chen in the world, but she still nodded.

Such a thing was related to Liyang's fate, and it was impossible for her not to know about it.

Murong Qingrou's expression also became profound, and she asked in a deep voice: "How much do you know about Su Chen?"

"..."

Xu Weixiong was silent again, with a somewhat complicated expression on his face, and finally shook his head.

"Since Your Majesty was able to find me, he probably knows what happened between me and him. I don't want to get involved too much with Su Chen."

"As for what is known about him, it is nothing more than what is spread in the world."

Looking at Xu Weixiong's expression, Murong Qingrou seemed to have expected it, but still continued:

"I am planning to establish a force specifically targeted at Jianghu and controlled by the imperial court to attract martial arts talents from all over the world. At the same time, I will also eradicate those Jianghu knights who pose a threat to Liyang and have no protection from other dynasties."

"I hope you will be the commander-in-chief."

"..."

Establishing a force specifically targeting the world and controlled by the imperial court, as a royal family and an emperor, there is nothing to be alarmed about.

But what surprised Xu Weixiong was that Murong Qingrou came to find her?

First of all

She is the second princess of Beiliang Prince's Palace. She could not keep up with the calculations between Beiliang and the imperial court in recent years, and they were already at odds with each other.

Are you sure this is still controlled by the imperial court?

Moreover, she was not willing to work for the imperial court or Empress Murong.

Just as he was about to refuse, he was stopped by Murong Qingrou.

"Don't refuse in a hurry. Let me explain the conditions first. If you still choose to refuse, I won't force you."

"You are responsible for commanding this force. You need to recruit martial arts experts from all over the world to be used by Li Yang, but these are only secondary."

"You only need to accomplish one thing. As long as you do it, you can leave at any time, and my conditions will be honored."

"what's up?"

Xu Weixiong did not refuse in a hurry, but was a little surprised as to what could make Murong Qingrou so cautious.

"I want you to convince Su Chen to serve Li Yang."

Murong Qingrou didn't show off any more.

"..."

Xu Weixiong was stunned, but he came to his senses immediately, stood up and saluted, his eyes became firm, and he said directly: "I'm sorry, Your Majesty, I can't do it."

Murong Qingrou frowned and asked again: "Don't you want to know what the chips I offered are?"

Xu Weixiong's eyes were firm and he said without any hesitation: "No matter what the bargaining chip is, I can't accept it."

"If your Majesty has nothing else to do, I will leave first."

Everything else is negotiable, but not this one.

Xu Weixiong said, bowed to Murong Qingrou and prepared to leave Yude Hall.

"What if it's about your brother Xu Fengnian's chance of succeeding as King of Northern Liang?"

As soon as this word came out

Xu Weixiong paused in his tracks as he left.

at this point

Murong Qingrou had already expected it. She took out a secret letter from her sleeve and said calmly:

"Beiliang asked you to come to Shangyin Academy and set up a layout in the south of the Yangtze River. Now you are asking Xu Fengnian to go out for training. You just want to mediate with the court and win the position of King of Beiliang for Xu Fengnian."

"I have contacted King Beiliang about this matter. This is his reply to you."

Murong Qingrou looked at the letter, and Xu Weixiong turned around again and came to Murong Qingrou.

Murong Qingrou handed this secret letter to Xu Weixiong.

Xu Weixiong took it and opened it directly, only to see a few words written inside.

'It's all up to my daughter to make her own decision. '

Obviously

Xu Zhao did not force Xu Weixiong to do this.

He didn't know the grudge between Xu Weixiong and Su Chen, but he knew that the change in Xu Weixiong during this period was probably because of this boy.

Looking at Xu Weixiong who was deep in thought, Murong's soft voice continued to sound, and he said calmly:

"If you agree, the position in Shangyin Academy will still be there. In other words, Beiliang's previous layout will not be broken."

"And once you complete this task, for Beiliang, you can save countless layouts and lose more benefits and costs."

Chapter 113 The strength of Yipintang, Li Qiushui is surprised

Murong Qingrou's eyes were deep, but they were also full of determination.

If she hadn't gotten along with Su Chen and seen Su Chen's strategizing methods, Murong Qingrou might not have offered such a big bargaining chip to exchange for Su Chen.

of course

This is not all the chips, but also includes the conditions for the three northern counties to send troops.

Now that the three northern counties have been recovered, Xu Weixiong's only condition remains.

of course

If Xu Weixiong refuses, the royal family will have another bargaining chip, but it is absolutely impossible for Xu Fengnian to inherit the position of Beiliang.
