In the end, Hu Jun paid for the meal.
Because while paying, Yue Guan called again.
It's Mo Xiangwan calling.
So Hu Jun had no choice but to pay.
Yue Guan swore to God that he really didn't avoid the bill on purpose.
It was just money for a meal, and of course he wouldn't take this small amount of money seriously.
Mo Xiangwan's call at that time was purely an accident.
I discussed with him how much follow-up investment would be needed for "Shadow".
No other reason, really.
After returning to the hotel, Yue Guan simply cleaned up and brought up his personal panel.
[Name: Yue Guan]
[Emperor’s Qi: 747]
[Level: Special privileges]
[Active skill: Empathy]
[Passive skills: Dragon robe added to the body, ninety-five supreme]
[Equipment: Jade Emperor Emperor Clothing]
[Privilege: No. 1 in the industry]
Yue Guan was mainly looking at the column of Emperor's Qi.
Previously on the crew of "Glory of the Han", Yue Guan finally used his identity as Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty to increase his imperial energy to 747. This time, if he can use his identity as King Pei to increase his imperial energy to 1,000, he will make a lot of money this time.
Of course, Yue Guan also knew that this was impossible.
King Pei is a guest character. In theory, it will not provide him with much imperial aura unless he can act like a flower.
But that's not realistic either.
Because the story of King Pei is not a rare imperial story. Backgrounds like King Pei are very common in history.
Yue Guan just habitually dreams first.
As for how much imperial energy you can get, of course you have to experience it before you know.
[It has been detected that Pei Wang Peiliang meets the conditions for opening the virtual space. You have the opportunity to experience the world of "Shadow" for yourself.]
[Do you want to start the experience?]
Yue Guan clicks "Yes".
A familiar light door opened.
Yue Guan took one step forward, and the next moment, he had arrived in another world.
As per the old rules, Yue Guan first determines the current timeline.
In less than a quarter of an hour, Yue Guan's expression changed.
Because he discovered that the timeline of "Shadow" at this time was before the plot began. To be precise, it should still be a prequel at this time.
Peiliang was not the leader of Pei State at this time, but was just the younger brother of the leader of Pei State.
The leader of Pei State was his elder brother Peishan at this time.
However, Peishan personally led the army on the expedition and was hit by a cold arrow from the enemy. Now his life is in danger.
At this time, the powerful enemies of Pei State were pressing on the border, and the Wu State in the north was already pressing on the border, hoping to occupy Pei State and unify the north and the south.
The situation in Pei State is as critical as Peishan's body.
The legal first heir of Pei State at this time was not him, but Peishan's son, a little boy who was only six years old.
Everyone knows that a six-year-old boy cannot save Pei Guo.
But equally, everyone also knew that he should inherit the country of Pei.
unless…
Before Yue Guan could continue thinking, he heard the movement outside.
Soon, a guard came to report: "My lord is dying. Please go and talk. The governor, Yu, is also here."
Yue Guan nodded and walked directly outside.
The guard was a little worried. He was Peiliang's confidant. After hesitation, he reminded: "The situation is delicate now. You should let Shadow go on your behalf."
Yue Guan smiled: "Brother will not harm me."
"But you have become an obstacle to the young master's ascension to the throne." The guard's hint became more and more explicit.
Yue Guan looked at the guard with increasingly sincere eyes.
If this guard is really from Peiliang, it means that Peiliang is really good at winning people's hearts.
If this guard is from Peishan and is a chess piece placed by Peishan next to Pei Liang, then Pei Liang should be even more cautious when speaking.
So he said seriously: "I believe that eldest brother will never harm me."
Yue Guan insisted, and of course the guards could no longer stop him.
After Yue Guan arrived outside Peishan's palace, the guards went to report.
Yue Guan glanced at the guard's back, and then quickly looked away.
In fact, it doesn't matter whether the guard is his or Peishan's.
The important thing is that this throne must be passed to him, otherwise the plot behind "Shadow" will not work properly.
And as long as the throne is passed to him, Peishan's people will actually be his people.
Unless he is loyal to Peishan like Ziyu.
But there are not many people like Ziyu in the world.
While Yue Guan's thoughts were racing, the guard returned from the palace and said to Yue Guan: "Second Young Master, my lord has invited me."
Yue Guan walked towards the palace.
Soon, he saw a complete stranger.
This person should be his cheap brother, Pei Wang Peishan, who is known to be extremely brave. He conquered almost all of Pei's territory with his own bravery.
In this process, the governor, Yu, was Peishan's right-hand man.
The two joined forces to create the foundation of Pei State, so their prestige in Pei State was unprecedentedly high.
Peishan never doubted that Yu, the governor-general, would rebel. The two even married Jinlan and became brothers of the opposite sex. Their relationship was even better than that of Peishan and Peiliang.
But the power of Pei State must not be passed on to Zi Yu.
So Peishan called Peiliang to his bedroom.
"Pei Liang, come forward." Peishan wanted to wave to Pei Liang, but this small movement made it very difficult for him to complete.
People who are good swimmers often drown in water.
Peishan was once a famous general in the world along with Yang Cang, and he was famous for his bravery. However, when someone fired a cold arrow on the battlefield, no matter how powerful the general, he could not avoid his fate of death.
Peishan was already dying.
Therefore, he wanted to arrange everything in Peiguo before his death so that Peiguo could continue to be passed down.
Yue Guan came to Peishan with a serious and sad expression, which was in line with the atmosphere at this time.
Seeing Yue Guan's appearance, Peishan's eyes flashed with relief.
"Pei Liang, all the ministers have said that you should take over as King Pei. What do you think?" Peishan asked slowly.
At this time, not only was the chief governor Zi Yu in the palace, but also all the important civil and military officials from Pei Kingdom were present.
Including Tian Zhan, with Wang Qianyuan's face, Yue Guan couldn't ignore it even if he wanted to.
Yue Guan knew that this should be a test for himself.
Normally, he should refuse.
But Yue Guan didn't do that.
Instead, he said calmly: "Brother, the army of Wu State is pressing down on the border at this time, and Pei State is in danger. Brother can no longer lead the army, and my nephew is still young. As a native of Pei, Pei Liang naturally has to do his duty."
Yu, the governor of the capital, shot his eyes at Yue Guan like sharp swords, and his tone was very cold: "Is the second young master trying to seize the country and usurp the throne?"
"Pei Liang doesn't dare." Yue Guan saluted Zi Yu: "Pei Liang just believes that the current Pei State needs a bold and powerful monarch to help Pei State overcome difficulties. At this time, the front line is still fighting, and Pei Liang Liang also doesn’t want to increase internal strife. Brother, Governor, I would like to make a poisonous oath in front of important ministers. I am the King of Pei, and I will definitely make Ping’er the Lord of the Pei Kingdom in the future. If I violate this oath, I will be punished by heaven and earth."
As soon as Yue Guan said these words, most people in the hall relaxed.
Including Peishan.
Because Yue Guan's oath coincided with his plan.
But Ziyu still looked cold, and looked at Peiliang with undisguised vigilance.
"An oath is like a piece of white paper, it will break into pieces as soon as it is torn, so of what use is it?" Ziyu said coldly.
"With the testimony of the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty, Governor, I dare not break the contract, and there is no need to break the contract." Yue Guan said seriously.
Peishan chose to believe in Yue Guan.
In other words, he has now reached the point where his fuel is exhausted and he has no other choice but to trust Yue Guan.
"Just...just follow Peiliang, Ziyu. After I leave, you will assist Peiliang and strengthen the country of Pei."
Peishan held Zi Yu's hand and stared at Zi Yu with his eyes, hoping that Zi Yu would agree to this request.
Ziyu couldn't bear to refuse Peishan's request.
But he still couldn't trust Yue Guan.
So Ziyu said coldly: "It's okay to make Pei a strong country, but if you don't pass the throne to the young master Peiliang in the future, I will kill you."
In front of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty and even Peishan, Ziyu was still so strong.
But there was no surprise on anyone's face.
Because Ziyu is such a person.
His status in Pei State is inherently special.
Moreover, Ziyu was looking after Peishan's only heir. Of course, Peishan would not have any objections and would only feel pleased.
Yue Guan didn't take it seriously and said to Zi Yu seriously: "If I don't pass the throne to Ping'er in the future, without the governor taking action, I will kill myself to thank the world."
As soon as Yue Guan finished speaking, two lines of small characters appeared in front of him:
[You are very proficient in speaking skills. You have achieved the self-cultivation of an emperor. The aura of the emperor is +3.]
[Please keep up the good work.]
After Yue Guan saw these two lines of small characters, he sighed helplessly.
He is a person with a pure nature. How has he grown since he was bound to this golden finger
This golden finger is really not a good thing.
Let him embark on a path that is completely contrary to his nature.
Yue Guan felt very sad.
But it is inappropriate to put the golden finger here.
Life is so difficult to have both.
There was no way he could do anything but bite the bullet and become the kind of person he hated most in the past.
Naturally, Yue Guan's emotion was unknown to others. After hearing Yue Guan's resounding oath, even Zi Yu felt much better.
After Peishan felt Yue Guan's sincerity, he closed his eyes with satisfaction and died.
Under normal circumstances, the most important task of the civil and military personnel of the Pei Kingdom and the Manchu Dynasty at this time was to pay tribute to Peishan.
But at this time, Pei State was in a critical situation. Peishan had already ordered everything to be simple and not to delay military and state affairs.
Ziyu and Peishan had a close relationship, and his prestige in Peishan was at its peak. He inherited Peishan's legacy. Although he was still very sad, he suppressed his sadness and paid homage directly to Yueguan. At the same time, he advised the lord not to Immersed in sadness, the top priority now is to quickly deal with the threat from Wu Kingdom.
Yue Guan followed his good deeds. Although Peishan had just died, Yue Guan had no time to give him a funeral tomb, so he directly took the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty to another palace to discuss business matters, how to defeat the Wu State army.
Pei Liang is the new King of Pei. This is the first test he has experienced since becoming King of Pei. Naturally, everyone hopes that Pei Liang can come up with some constructive opinions.
Even Ziyu looked at Peiliang.
Although he was one person below Pei State and above ten thousand people, after the death of Pei Shan, it was no problem to even directly say that he was above ten thousand people. Peiliang, the King of Pei whose foothold was unstable, was no match for him.
But Ziyu had not yet had the idea of seeking the country and usurping the throne at this time, so Yue Guan's attitude was very important in how to counterattack the Wu Kingdom.
Yue Guan's performance did not disappoint them, and he immediately showed his determination and courage.
"The Wu Kingdom is approaching fiercely, and its own national strength far exceeds that of our Pei Kingdom. We must fight, but we are alone and cannot be our opponent. Therefore, we need strong support."
Ziyu's eyes lit up.
This is exactly the same as his strategy.
Ziyu didn't expect that Pei Liang, the new King of Pei, would have such a mind.
However, this is indeed fine in theory, but in practice, it becomes a big problem.
"My lord, at this time, the world is divided into three kingdoms. The Wu Kingdom, the Pei Kingdom, and the Yan Kingdom, among which the Wu Kingdom is the strongest. Now they have raised 800,000 troops to attack our Dapei. They want to annex Dapei in one fell swoop and then unify the world. Therefore, in order to avoid death, the Yan Kingdom , should also help. However, I previously sent someone to contact Yang Cang, the supreme commander of the Yan Kingdom, and Yang Cang's reply was that they would not send troops unless Jingzhou was ceded to the Yan Kingdom."
As soon as Ziyu said this, the ministers were all angry.
"Taking advantage of the situation."
"Shameless."
"Short-sighted."
…
Yue Guan looked around at the ministers. Under Yue Guan's gaze, the ministers gradually closed their mouths, and the hall became clean again.
Then Yue Guan spoke slowly: "There are only interests between countries. It is normal for Great Yan to recover like this. Today, our Pei country is at a disadvantage, so we have to endure this oppression. In the future, our Pei country will be strong, and we will come back." .”
After a pause, Yue Guan spoke firmly: "Give Jingzhou to Yang Cang."
"My lord, no."
"Jingzhou is the gateway to our Pei Kingdom. If Jingzhou is lost, the Yan Kingdom's army will be able to defeat it."
"Lord, you must not do this."
Yue Guan's expression was very cold, and his voice was even colder: "If we don't cede Jingzhou to Yan State, there will be no need to talk about the future."
As soon as Yue Guan said this, the ministers fell silent.
It’s a question of dying early or dying late.
Of course everyone chooses to die later.
Nothing wrong.
Although there is some shame in doing so.
Tian Zhan looked at the cold-faced Yue Guan and summoned up the courage to ask, "Will we be able to defeat Wu State by ceding Jingzhou to Yan State?"
"Definitely." Yue Guan answered resolutely: "Yang Cang is the best general in the world, and the governor is the strongest commander in the world. If the governor and Yang Cang join forces, Wu Guo will have no choice but to come back this time."
After all, he is someone who has read the answer and speaks with certainty.
Hearing that Yue Guan trusted him so much, Ziyu's expression completely relaxed. He bowed and said: "Ziyu will definitely fulfill his mission, defeat the Wu Kingdom, and restore peace to our Pei Kingdom."
"Not enough." Yue Guan said lightly.
Ziyu raised his head and looked at Yue Guan.
Yue Guan said word by word: "Captain, after repelling the Wu Kingdom, immediately attack Yang Cang. Jingzhou cannot be given to the Yan Kingdom, and Yang Cang must die. If you have the opportunity to kill Yang Cang, do not hesitate."
Yue Guan's words made all the ministers refresh their views on this new lord.
I originally thought that Peiliang was just a playboy.
Now it seems that this is obviously a heroic figure, and turning against him is like turning over a book, without any psychological pressure.
This kind of person is still in a high position in troubled times, and it is unrealistic not to succeed.
Ziyu looked at Yue Guan with eyes full of admiration, but of course, he was also wary.
After all, the more outstanding Yue Guan is, the more dangerous Peishan's children will be.
However, Pei State was still in danger at this time, and Ziyu couldn't think that far ahead for a while. He just cupped his hands and said, "I will do my best to fulfill my mission."
Yue Guan thought for a while and then said: "Captain, please go to Yan Kingdom in person and make it clear that Jingzhou gave Yang Cang, not Yan Kingdom."
Ziyu and other ministers looked at Yue Guan even more strangely.
There is something about this new lord.
This is no longer a conspiracy, it is a naked conspiracy.
Of course, the situation in Peiguo is critical now, so the more things Peiliang has, the better it is for them.
Ziyu readily agreed.
After Ziyu agreed, two lines of small words appeared in front of Yue Guan:
[The Pei Wang Peiliang you played has successfully led history in the right direction, with an imperial spirit +4.]
[Your ability and courage have conquered more than half of the ministers of Pei State, and your imperial aura +6.]
When Yue Guan saw the second line of words, he raised his eyebrows.
I never thought that showing off your talent could be such a good thing.
But it’s normal to think about it.
Compared with being loyal to a six-year-old child, it is obvious that being loyal to Yue Guan, a young, powerful, courageous and wise lord has a much better future.
This is true for the entire Pei Kingdom.
At this time, the front line of Pei State had begun to fight with the Wu State army, and they were retreating steadily.
The power of Pei State alone cannot really defeat Wu State.
Therefore, Ziyu didn't waste any more time and rushed to the Yan Kingdom in person.
It expressed Pei Guo’s sincerity.
Ziyu retreated, and the other ministers naturally followed suit.
But Yue Guan did not move.
After being silent for a while, he suddenly said: "Shadow."
A shadow came out of the darkness.
When he raised his head, he looked exactly like Pei Liang.
This is Peiliang's shadow.
As the governor, Ziyu has his own shadow.
As the younger brother of King Pei, it is natural that Pei Liang has a shadow of himself around him.
In the new script, it is set that in the end Jingzhou counterattacked and killed the stand-ins of Ziyu and King Pei Liang, and then was killed by the real King Pei with a sword.
Langya Bang (LYB) has everything you need until the end.
This ending was specially arranged by Yue Guan for himself.
Who asked him to play King Pei
If he had played Ziyu and Jingzhou, he would have written the ending with Jingzhou killing everyone and becoming the King of Pei himself.
It's just so true.
Of course, the timeline isn't that far off at this point.
Peishan just died.
Ziyu was sent as an envoy to Yan State.
The threat from Wu Kingdom has not been eliminated yet.
Therefore, all operations must be done with caution.
After seeing the shadow appear, Yue Guan ordered: "Go and arrange Ping'er's meals yourself."
"How to arrange it?" Shadow asked in a deep voice.
He knew that since Yue Guan called him out, there must be special arrangements.
Yue Guan's expression was indifferent, and his tone was also very indifferent: "Ping'er's health is not very good to begin with, so I asked you to keep an eye on him more."
Shadow nodded: "I understand."
"No, you don't understand." Yue Guan said calmly: "Until the threat from Wu Kingdom is eliminated, nothing will happen to Ping'er. Before the Governor and Yang Cang take action, nothing will happen to Ping'er."
Shadow is silent.
"But if the threat from Wu Kingdom is removed, the Governor and Yang Cang will also take action..."
Yue Guan did not finish his words.
Shadow lowered his head and said in a deep voice: "The young master's health has never been good."
Yue Guan glanced at the shadow and sighed softly: "Yes, this is really worrying. If Ping'er dies before me, wouldn't I be ashamed of my elder brother's spirit in heaven?"
[You have understood the hidden attribute of the emperor—treachery!]
[You have awakened the hidden attribute of the emperor—the double-faced hero!]
[You have understood the hidden attribute of the emperor - cannibalism!]
[Emperor’s Qi +13.]
[This experience is over.]
Yue Guan returned to the real world.
Seeing that the Imperial Qi column had turned to 773, Yue Guan looked up to the sky and sighed:
He always wanted to be a good person.
But the method of obtaining the Emperor's Qi was clearly leading him astray.
He felt the pain of division.
The reality is always like this, forcing good girls into prostitution.
He wanted to be a good person, but he had no choice.
If one day he turns out to be a hypocritical person, it will all be Goldfinger's fault.
He, Yue Guan, will always be that pure and passionate young man with a bright heart!
