The Supreme Being

Opposite Gongyang Zeng stood a tall and thin young man, his appearance was quite similar to him. Although he had a horse face, his features were regular and he had a unique charm, but there was a hint of arrogance between his eyebrows. It was he who was in Jinguang Cave in Wudang Mountain. Gong Yangbo, the legitimate second son of the cultivator!

Gongyang Bo nodded and said, "Fortunately, the boy has lived up to his mission. The immortals have made a decision and are ready to intervene in this matter."

At this point, he frowned slightly: "The process is quite strange. When the boy first returned to the mountain to report the Mo family's affairs to the immortal elders, they did not agree with the Taoist sect, which has always been secretive, directly interfering with the world, and the selection of talents and the abolition of The Guanjin tax has not destroyed the foundation of the clan, and it does not target the descendants of immortals and gods. If you study hard and practice hard, why worry about being useless? "

The duke family is the nobility, but this is what some nobles call themselves.

Gongyang Zeng touched the long beard that was the most common thing in this era, and said slowly: "As a father, I was worried about the reaction of the immortal elders, so I didn't act rashly during this period, and I didn't put all my hope on them. What happened next? Changed your mind again?"

"The child didn't know the reason. When he was rejected at first, his begging was of no use. He felt quite desperate and could only stay on the mountain and lobby to get close to his fellow disciples. Seeing that the January period was approaching, he was about to return when he was suddenly surrounded by all the immortals. The chief summoned him and said that the changes he made were indeed harmful to the immortal gods and he planned to send someone to intervene. "Gongyang Bo still looked confused until now, not knowing why the immortal chiefs suddenly changed their minds.

Gong Yangzeng paced with his hands clasped behind his back, looking thoughtful: "No one else visits the Golden Light Cave?"

My son had just started working on location, and his master was traveling out of town. He had little influence in Jinguangdong. Without outside help, there was no reason why the elders of Jinguangdong would change their ways!

"No." Gongyang Bo shook his head affirmatively, "At least the child understands."

He paused and said: "In short, the immortal elders have agreed to this matter and are preparing to send a grandmaster to come with treasures. However, they have something to say first. The affairs of Chen Di are still within the scope of normal state affairs. The selection of talents can be concentrated on the king directly. The scope of control does not directly abolish Shiqing Shilu, so it is unjust and inappropriate to interfere in this matter, and I will not directly use the banner of Jinguang Cave. As for how to do it, please ask my father for instructions."

"It doesn't matter, my father has already made a plan." Gongyang Zeng caressed her with both hands, his expression showing a bit of joy, as if everything was under control.

Gongyang Bo was about to ask what his plan was when he suddenly remembered something and lowered his voice subconsciously: "Father, I heard from a fellow disciple that Chen Di's abolition of the Guanjin tax was highly praised by the King of Chu. There are several big nobles. The caravan has already obtained the first 'profit' from it, and the Tang State has no objections. It seems to have acquiesced to this change. It seems that some 'merchants' have come to try it. If we set things right, we may encounter other interference! "

In just one month, the impact of Chen Di's abolition of the Guanjin tax has not been fully revealed, but because it is very close to the Chu and Tang kingdoms, especially close to the Chu capital, many merchants have already made two trips back and forth and experienced many benefits.

Similarly, it had only been more than two months since Meng Qi came to Chendi to give lectures. Most of the nobles, scholars and common people had learned words such as "profit" and "interest", as well as weird idioms such as "bringing order to order".

Hearing this, Gongyang Zeng sighed: "I have to say that the five sons of the Mohist family, especially Su Mo, are unparalleled talents. The words 'mutual benefit' really refers to the way of getting along between countries and people! This matter has a great impact on Chu Tang is beneficial and harmless, so they are naturally happy to see the results and get a share of the profits, and they can also use our safe place to make secret exchanges. "

Hearing his father praising Su Mo and confirming that rashly interrupting the new national policy would lead to interference from Chu and Tang, Gongyang Bo said in shock: "Father, should we do it then?"

Gongyang Zeng looked at his proud son lovingly and said with a smile: "You are still too young and naive. When something you strongly oppose becomes stable, don't think about fighting it or overthrowing it. It’s about trying to control it, so that you can eliminate the disadvantages and get the benefits!”

"Try to control it?" Gongyang Bo looked at his father in shock.

Gong Yangzeng's expression became solemn: "The new national policy will not be abolished, but the people who implement it should not be Su Mo and others, but us!"

Since Su Mo said that the general trend of the world is rolling forward, those who follow it will prosper, and those who go against it will perish, then we will not fight it, but be its helmsman and take advantage of its momentum to strengthen ourselves!

This... Gongyang Bopin had the taste of his father's words. For the first time, he understood what an old fox and a scheming man meant. No wonder he had always been the mastermind among the three nobles!

"So, we still want to assassinate Su Mo and the others?" Gongyang Bo felt that he should do this, but he was afraid of guessing his father's meaning wrongly, so his tone seemed a bit weak for a moment.

Gongyang Zeng seemed to have heard some big joke and burst into laughter. Finally he said: "Why kill them? If we kill them, it will be our turn to control the new national policy? And after the Tian Guang incident last time, Su Mo Their security is extremely tight, and the king is always watching over them, unless the immortal chief of Jinguang Cave can hold a magic weapon or a few supreme elders come in person!"

As he spoke, his expression became serious: "But they have a weak point, no, this is what they think is their strongest point, and they often rely on it to get protection, so their defenses are relatively loose."

Gongyang Bo's eyes widened: "Father, you, you mean the king!"

King Chen is the grand master, the strongest person in Chen land. He is often the one who protects Meng Qi and others from being assassinated. His safety is most easily ignored!

Gongyang Zeng nodded solemnly: "Only by supporting the new monarch, the government can be returned to our hands. When the time comes, we can expel Su Mo and others who are chasing after him, and the new government will naturally be included in our bag."

He showed no hesitation at all, and the madness of his counterattack stunned Gongyang Bo.

"Yes, but there is a large formation in the palace, the king has the best weapons, and he is also a master. Unless the immortal chief of Jinguang Cave can hold the magic weapon of magic weapons, or a few supreme elders come in person, otherwise..." He murmured to himself He repeated what his father had just said.

Gongyang Zeng smiled: "This is something that needs to be considered in a head-to-head confrontation. The Tian family and the Wang family have been in business for many generations. How could there be no secret arrangements? Ask the Immortal of Jinguangdong. If you can sneak into the palace quietly, and the Immortal An, With Xiang’s assistance, how sure is he of winning the king?”

"Tian family, Wang family, Anshen Xiang?" Gongyang Bo asked in surprise.

Gong Yangzeng nodded: "We have discussed it long ago!"

Gongyang Bo was startled, and suddenly gritted his teeth and said:

"If you still can't win this, then you can call yourself a master!"

…………

Da Situ's Mansion is close to the palace, and under the care of King Chen, it appears to be impregnable.

"There are no military movements in the three noble fiefdoms. It seems that there will be no civil war for a while." Meng Qi took the report from several Mohists who sneaked into several fiefdoms to inquire about the situation.

Jiang Zhiwei frowned and said: "But they are too quiet and too obedient. Except after Tian Guang's death, the three families had a secret talk, and there was no movement. If something goes wrong, it must be a monster. If you don't pay attention, you will be in trouble when trouble occurs."

"But we can't find out what they want to do at all..." Zhao Heng said distressedly, "It's a pity that the magical skills that Xiao Meng spied from his clairvoyance memory are semi-incomplete and must be practiced with talent. Otherwise, we can spy on Supervisory Gongyang. Increase them."

After Meng Qi's persuasion, his commonly used title was finally settled on Xiao Meng.

Ruan Yushu suddenly said: "Where is the Golden Light Cave in Wudang Mountain?"

"Where are the nobles who have good relations with the Tian family in Chu State?" Qi Zhengyan also asked.

Meng Qi looked at the information in his hand and said: "These nobles of Chu State have received our special attention. They have made huge profits and are quite satisfied. They have already sent someone to hint that I will not interfere in this matter."

"As for the Golden Light Cave in Wudang Mountain, it is a secret door. Its location is difficult to find and cannot be explored. We only know that Gongyang Zeng's second son, Gong Yangbo, returned to Wudang Mountain some time ago. He returned yesterday, but he did not follow anyone else. It is impossible to see The attitude of leaving the Golden Light Cave.”

"Can you find out this?" Zhao Heng looked at Meng Qi in surprise. He even knew the whereabouts of a strong man on location!

Meng Qi said with a smile: "No matter how we change our Mohist theory, universal love and non-destiny will be closer to the lower class people. During this period, they have gained a lot, so the Gongyang family, Tian family and Wang family are all The righteous man passed on the news, hey, Gongyang Bo has to rest, practice, and be served when he returns home, how can he not have any clues? "

This is the vast ocean of people’s war!

It's a pity that it didn't reach this level a month ago, otherwise we wouldn't be able to get a glimpse of the contents of the secret talks between the three families!

"In short, you have to be careful about the Golden Light Cave. It's best to remind King Chen to ask King Chu to help tell the truth. Unfortunately, I haven't seen 'profit' before, so I can't make King Chu appreciate it. Otherwise, future troubles will be eliminated." Zhao Heng said to " The development of "Mo Zhe" feels amazing.

King Chen has no relationship with Jinguangdong, so it is difficult to find people with enough weight to lobby.

Meng Qi smiled and said, "That's what I meant."

As soon as he finished speaking, a messenger came from outside, saying that King Chen had invited him to discuss state affairs.

"What a coincidence." Meng Qi laughed and led Jiang Zhiwei and others towards the palace, leaving Bai Song, Zhao Bai and Wang Qi to take charge of the Situ Mansion.

The sky was dark, and although the wind was howling, it was suppressed and calm, as if a heavy rain was about to come.

Such weather made Meng Qi feel gloomy, but there was no sign of danger, so he didn't care.

As we walked closer and closer to the palace, there were guards in front of us checking to verify the identity of the visitor.

This is a slightly immature face, and Meng Qi is no stranger to it. Tian Kuo, the youngest son of his former commander-in-chief Kou Tianheng, was tested and recommended as the new "Mo Master". He is not an ordinary nobleman!

He is already a young Sikou, why would he serve as a guard here?

Tian Kuo looked at Meng Qi with a gloomy look on his face. He lowered his left hand and made a certain gesture common among "Moists".

It means: extremely dangerous!

Go quickly? Danger? Meng Qi was shocked. His Eighty-nine Mysterious Skills were completely insensitive?

Could it be that someone much higher than me has deceived the secret of heaven?

Is this why this weather comes?

The more critical it is, the more calm Meng Qi becomes. There are changes in the palace. What about King Chen?

He secretly used the "Yuxu Divine Calculation" to deduce the safety of King Chen.

Vague? No conclusion?

The biggest abnormality is the vagueness... Meng Qi couldn't think too much and sent a message to Jiang Zhiwei and others:

"Let's go! It's too late!"

In an instant, Meng Qi led Qi Zhengyan, Jiang Zhiwei led Ruan Yushu, and Zhao Heng alone turned around and ran away with lightning speed!

As soon as the three rays of light emerged, the people sitting in the palace immediately noticed it and stood up suddenly, holding a long bow in their hands, with golden light condensed into sharp arrows!

In the Situ Mansion, Bai Song was looking at the secret information that had just been sent: the servants of the three nobles discovered that there were strange movements in their respective mansions at night!

"Quick, stop Mr. Su and the others!" He suddenly raised his head and looked at Wang Qi and Zhao Bai.
