a few days later.
The king of Chu, who had been snowing heavily for several days, completely turned into a world covered in silver.
Near the end of the year, major merchants in the capital have also launched various promotional activities, and the streets are crowded and lively.
It just didn't have the festive atmosphere of previous years.
After all, the old monarch passed away, and the death of the royal family was almost the same as the death of the entire state of Chu.
If it weren't for the series of measures quickly launched after the eldest princess came to power, the king would not be as calm as he is now.
After using countless high-tech modern methods to work overtime, the mausoleum of the old king was finally completed.
On the side of the Cabinet, the day of mourning was set in three days.
At that time, the whole of the entire Great Chu region will mourn together.
Inside the palace.
The room was filled with an appetizing aroma, the hot pot was covered with a layer of red oil, and the mutton hairy belly greens rolled up and down.
Several people sat around the hot pot.
Hu Xiaoxian stared at a piece of hairy belly, it was her, but she had to keep an eye on it, otherwise she might be snatched away by the greedy girl called Fifth Qianqian.
She has already snatched a bunch of enoki mushrooms from her just now, and she can't let her get it anymore!
Luo Xue held Ling Yi all kinds of vegetables and meat with a calm expression, while Hu Dali carefully ate her own.
Chu Yanyu was sitting opposite Ling Yi, her fair face was a little rosy because she had a glass of wine and it was hot in the room.
She has been in a bad mood recently, and she didn't dare to let herself idle at all, because when she was idle, the voices and smiles of her father's people would appear in her mind, and she would uncontrollably think of those innocent royal family members who died in vain.
Up to now, she has not dared to go to the mourning halls of those royal family members... The coffins are so miserable!
"People can't be resurrected from the dead, and life has to go on." Luo Xue said to Chu Yanyu while serving Ling Yi.
These days, two women whose worldly positions are far apart have become good friends.
Chu Yanyu nodded lightly, and said, "I understand the truth, but I can't help but feel sad. Now that I think about it, Lu Qingming died too easily, and hatred is hard to pacify... But I don't know any of his accomplices. Let go."
After stabilizing the domestic situation, Chu Yanyu did not immediately start liquidation.
The time is not ripe and the strength is not enough.
Therefore, only some innocuous people were arrested, temporarily detained, and waited for the time to settle the accounts together.
After Lu Qingming's death, all the entry-level powerhouses that Lu Qingming cultivated ran away.
No one would be stupid enough to stay in the capital and wait to die.
Although most of their families were in the capital, Chu Yanyu did not move them.
On the one hand, I am worried that those people will jump over the wall, and on the other hand, there is also the consideration that it will not be a disaster for the family.
If she really did that, then she would be no different from Lu Qingming and the like.
The other party will also choose to go all out and assassinate her endlessly.
However, the death penalty can be avoided, and the living crime cannot be escaped. As long as those families are in Dachu for one day, they will not have a good life.
All have to live with their tails tucked in.
Not killing doesn't mean she doesn't hate, she's not so broad-minded yet.
For the past few days after the incident, Chu Yanyu has been feeling a little worried that the defense around her is too weak.
Even if the few who escaped did not come to assassinate her, the defense force in the palace was too weak.
But just two days ago, four masters of the Dao level suddenly came, saying that they obeyed the arrangement of Young Master Ling and came to protect her.
This moved Chu Yanyu to a mess, and at the same time, it was also a mess.
Where did a few powerful entry-level masters come from
Taoist monks are not Chinese cabbage for a few dollars, they are real masters who can perform supernatural powers!
When the Daqin embassy entered Chu, it was only because of the presence of the prince that there were only two strong people who entered the Dao to accompany.
Ling Yi brought her four at one time...
Thinking that Ling Yi went out of the city that night and only came back the next day, did he just do this
Chu Yanyu was confused.
But Ling Yi didn't say it, and she didn't ask.
The person she trusts most now is Ling Yi, no one.
She knew that he would definitely not harm her, but she also knew that he would leave sooner or later.
After all, this is the country of Chu. Even if she thought about it, Ling Yi and Luo Xue could not stay here forever.
Now she has recruited four experts to guard the palace, no matter where they came from, but Chu Yanyu's heart suddenly became very at ease.
So I was a little interested today, sitting down with these people to have a hot pot.
This feeling is obviously not that far away, but it feels like a long absence.
These four masters of entering the Dao, naturally, it is impossible for Ling Yi to pull out the roots and change them.
They are all masters from Taiyuezong.
After Ling Yi taught the Dharma, he proposed that the old man send a few powerful entry-level experts to protect Chu Yanyu.
After all, he is his uncle, no matter what, the affection is still there.
So the old man agreed happily, but he didn't want Chu Yanyu to know of his existence.
Maybe what Ling Yi said to him, he finally listened to it, or maybe he figured it out himself.
Domination of the world is really just an illusion for their group of people.
In the heyday of Taiyuezong, he couldn't beat others, and was destroyed by others. When Lu Qingming dominates the world, he can break through the realm of Dao and step into the realm of Yuanshen in one fell swoop. Turning Xiaoyao Sect, maybe even Lu Qingming can't beat it!
Now many sects are willing to work with them to target the Xiaoyao Sect, because the collapse of the Taiyue Sect has made them feel a strong crisis, and they do not want to be the next target of the Xiaoyao Sect!
But what about in many years
What if Xiaoyao Sect has never attacked other sects
After many years, will there be any sect willing to face such a behemoth as the Xiaoyao Sect
Therefore, it is not that the old man does not understand the truth, it is just a fluke and fantasy.
There was only one person needed to wake them up.
Over the years, Ling Yi was the first stranger to enter there, and he saw some things clearly enough.
It is logical to become the person who wakes them up.
Although Ling Yi thought of himself for Qin, he couldn't say that he was cheating.
A force like them, if they really dare to participate in the disputes of secular kingship, other sects must follow suit.
It won't be long before this land becomes a battlefield for the major sects.
The mortals in the world are bound to be reduced to cannon fodder and puppets.
At that time, life will be ruined, and there will be a beast tide from time to time. What will the world be like
These sects are bound to become sinners through the ages.
Zongmen can never do whatever they want, because above them, there are ancient religions, and above ancient religions, there are also star gates!
If you really dare to be reckless, there will never be a good end.
Therefore, the choice Ling Yi gave them was—
Either continue to hide here, live this kind of rat-like life forever, and carefully avoid Xiaoyao Sect.
Or, muster up your courage, unite with all those who can unite, face the Xiaoyao Sect, and take revenge!
As for the mundane... that's not where you're supposed to be!
Although the old man once ruled in place of his elder brother, in his heart, he is still a teenager who grew up in Taiyuezong.
Back then, he led the crowd to hide from the sect with resources, which belonged to the command of the teacher. He endured that tone, and when he learned that the sect was destroyed, many people cried bitterly and were heartbroken. Now they have failed to stop Lu Qingming from slaughtering the royal family. Seeing that the twin brothers were slaughtered, the blood of the royal family was bloodshed, and it was even more remorse.
The Xiaoyao Sect's side is pressing step by step again and again, and they have never considered leaving the slightest leeway and life for Taiyuezong and the Dachu royal family.
For others, the road to the highest is always covered with dry bones.
What people want is not only to unify the world, but also to become the master of the cultivation world!
At this time, the old man with ten thousand swords and the group of Taiyuezong elites he led actually had no way out.
Now that he has finally embarked on the road of revenge, it is truly out of his heart.
No matter what the outcome, at least leave no regrets.
After a hot pot meal, the depressed and exhausted Chu Yanyu seemed to have recovered a lot of energy.
After a group of people finished eating, Chu Yanyu, who had two glasses of wine, offered to talk to him alone.
Luo Xue and the others quickly avoided going out, and before leaving, they deliberately winked at Ling Yi and made a mouth-
The child's surname is Ling!
Ling Yi: "…"
There were only two people left in the room.
"You haven't mentioned it, but I've been thinking about it all the time. Look, can you invite your embassy over there and talk again?" Chu Yanyu leaned on the sofa, looking rather unimpressively. The two straight and slender legs were thrown on the coffee table and said to Ling Yi very naturally.
Today, she can only be so relaxed and presumptuous in front of a few people.
"The West Route Army has entered the chaotic area, and the South Route Army has gone to sea. Talking about the East Sea City at this time..." Ling Yi frowned slightly, looked at Chu Yanyu and said, "Is it appropriate?"
In Chu Yanyu's eyes, there was a bit of charm, and she looked at Ling Yi without saying a word.
"Don't look at it, I'm always worried that I can't kiss my face." Ling Yi pouted.
"… "
Chu Yanyu burst out laughing: "It's shameless!"
As she said that, she straightened her body, retracted her legs, folded them together, her face returned to a dignified expression, and said lightly: "If you take someone else's, you will have to pay it back, Da Chu has taken too much over the years. It is cheaper for others, so the dragon vein is broken and the royal family is robbed.
She glanced at Ling Yi lightly: "I'm speaking from my heart."
"Yeah." Ling Yi nodded.
"I don't care about the broken dragon vein." Chu Yanyu looked at Ling Yi.
"Oh." Ling Yi nodded again.
"I really don't care." Chu Yanyu emphasized.
"What do you want to say?" Ling Yi looked up at her.
"I think… "
Chu Yanyu raised her eyebrows and said, "Forget it, since you don't have any opinions, I will have someone send a letter to Qin and Zhao to discuss the return of Donghai City."
As she said that, her star eyes blinked, her Emei swept away, and she looked at Ling Yi: "Although the Chu country has experienced great turmoil, it is not without the strength to fight. I will have someone tell the Qin country's envoy that all this is because You! Otherwise, if you take it, you will take it, and if you take it, you will take it."
Looking at Chu Yanyu who had watery eyes, Ling Forced Straight Man Yi changed the subject incomprehensibly and said, "I'll give you that golden elixir, have you eaten it yet?"
Chu Yanyu was stunned for a long time, then stood up angrily: "Don't eat it! What's the use of me wanting that thing? Youth is eternal, who can I show it to?"
Bang dang, slam the door and leave.
