Chapter 406 The Demon Dragon Returns to the Capital! Disrupting the Secrets of Heaven!

"It seems like this old dragon is willing to do anything to get out of Locked Dragon Well." After Jiang Che cut off the contact with Ao Kun, the Scarlet Blood Demon Lord chuckled.

Of course, he actually understood Ao Kun's behavior very well. He was trapped in the secret realm and couldn't escape, and it would have been very difficult every day, if he hadn't sealed himself in the stone statue later.

He felt that even if he could get out one day, he would go crazy.

And he was only over a hundred years old, but Ao Kun, an old dragon, had been suppressed by Tianlong Temple for hundreds of years. Even if he was humble, he could understand it.

"He has lost all hope now and can only place everything on my promise. Naturally, he is willing to pay any price."

"But don't take it lightly. There are no restrictions when you swear an oath through this dragon scale. When he gets out of trouble, he may have a different look."

Using himself to save others, the Scarlet-Blooded Demon Lord felt that Ao Kun would definitely cause chaos when the time came, and he would not be able to be safely controlled by Jiang Che.

"Trapped for hundreds of years, his incarnation has been destroyed, and he is injured. Even if this old dragon has any intention, he can easily suppress it, but by then, I won't be so polite to him.

These all depend on his choice. "

Jiang Che smiled calmly.

To attack Tianlong Temple, Jiang Che would naturally not be able to do it alone. He would invite helpers to do it together. These forces are enough to suppress Ao Kun. If the other party understands the situation and is willing to fulfill his promise.

He doesn't mind having one more deputy leader of the Tianya League.

But if the old dragon is not convinced, then he will not be merciful.

"So, when are you going to take action?"

The Red Blood Demon Lord looked suspicious.

"As I said just now, it will probably be delayed for a while. During this period, I have to go back to the capital first."

"Back in the capital, could it be that you want to intercept and kill those Northern Barbarian envoys with Lu Jieyun?" When we first met at Dengxian Tower, although he never showed up, he was always by Jiang Che's side.

Naturally, he knew some of Jiang Che and Lu Jieyun's plans.

"good."

Jiang Che looked solemn and nodded slightly.

"Intercepting and killing envoys from foreign lands is a serious crime, especially under the current premise of peace talks between the Central Plains and the imperial court. If this happens, you will be considered the most arrogant person of the imperial court.

I'm afraid the emperor won't let you go either. "

Anyone with a discerning eye knows the dilemma of the imperial court. On the one hand, it is the defense of the demon clan in Tianyuan overseas, and on the other hand, it is the confrontation with the northern barbarians at the border in the north. These two things have diverted most of the energy of the imperial court.

This has led to frequent chaos in the Central Plains in recent years, and the Qingtian Sect has acted recklessly.

But once the court negotiates a peace, the court will be able to use its hands to stabilize the situation. It can be said that this is a major plan related to the national destiny of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the emperor must attach great importance to it.

"Senior is joking. Regarding the imperial court, Jiang has never been a loyal person to serve the country. All I want is a layer of convenience, even if he turns against me one day.

In fact, to me, it’s nothing. "

Jiang Che smiled.

He will definitely kill the Northern Barbarian envoy.

In addition to getting the Jiuhua Immortal Dew from them, he was actually also very interested in the life-extending spiritual things Lu Jieyun said. After all, his life span was actually not that much.

If there is a chance to make up for it, that would naturally be the best.

Furthermore, intercepting and killing the Northern Barbarian envoys was also related to the secrets Lu Jieyun said.

Jiang Che wanted to take advantage of Ji Changsheng's mother and son, and ask for the Heavenly Demon Jade Emperor Lotus from their hands. He couldn't do without the support of that secret, but he couldn't say these words to the Scarlet Blood Demon Lord.

"Hahaha, okay, you are indeed a person that I value. You should do whatever you want while you are alive. The court and the emperor are just passing by."

The Scarlet-Blooded Demon Lord applauded loudly. Jiang Che's words were undoubtedly very offensive to his temper.

"Then when do we leave?"

"I'll leave later."

Jiang Che glanced at Zhao Xianzhi who was meditating in the distance and chuckled.

Just as Jiang Che and the others were rushing back to the capital.

The final results of the negotiations between the Great Zhou court and the Northern Man envoys were formally and initially reached, in addition to mutual trade between the Central Plains and the grasslands and sending young warriors to each other for exchanges.

There is only one most important condition.

That is the withdrawal of 400,000 troops from the Central Plains court.

However, the cost of handing over the important border town in the first place was wiped out. As a result, the Central Plains imperial court only had 200,000 elite troops left in the border areas of the North.

In addition, the imperial court will also transfer several great masters and a martial saint.

This shows sincerity.

Of course, as a price, the Northern Barbarians would also withdraw their troops and return thousands of miles of fertile land to the Central Plains court. The two sides would stop fighting and make peace, thus resolving the war and waiting for the contract to be signed.

Naturally, the alliance between the two countries would not be established so hastily.

Both sides must send heavyweights and bet on the national destiny of the two countries, in order to truly establish an alliance between the two countries. In this way, no matter whether either party wants to breach the agreement.

There is a price to pay.

After all, there are no fools in this world, and Emperor Yuankang is not stupid either. Although he really wants to negotiate peace, he also knows that the Northern Barbarians are the enemy. If it is just a verbal agreement, he will send troops to leave the North.

Once the Northern Barbarians invaded on a large scale, the imperial court would be too passive.

After the Northern Barbarian envoys returned, it was time for the two sides to officially begin their alliance in the North.

In the Imperial Garden.

Emperor Yuankang Ji Wenhao's face had an unconcealable smile, no longer as gloomy as before, and his joyful look made the surrounding waiters feel a lot lighter.

After all, accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger. In front of an existence of the emperor's level, no one dares to be careless in the slightest.

"This servant has not seen such a cheerful smile on His Majesty's face for a long time." The chamberlain Li Chengzhong also had a smile on his face and flattered him at the right time.

"You have been following me for quite some time, right?"

Ji Wenhao glanced at Li Chengzhong.

"It has been twenty-four years and seven months since this slave was transferred to His Majesty." Li Chengzhong lowered his head and said, accurately reading out the time he had served. His words undoubtedly made Emperor Yuankang even more happy. .

"It would be great if all the officials in the court were as loyal as you eunuchs."

Li Chengzhong had a flattering smile on his face:

"Those civil and military officials all have good backgrounds, but no one wants to be a eunuch. They are all aloof."

"Yes, noble, one is nobler than the other." Emperor Yuan Kang squinted his eyes and hummed softly, and the face of Imperial Master Yao Yue appeared in his mind. He had said all his words to that extent before.

But the other party still rejected him.

If he hadn't been afraid of the opponent's strength and the Xuantian Wuji Palace behind him, he would have been furious.

"But I think this is temporary. As long as His Majesty can free his hands from the border, he will rectify the court and purge the world, and then they will have nothing to rely on.

Everyone must obey His Majesty's orders obediently. "

"You still know how to speak."

Ji Wenhao was very satisfied.

"Your Majesty, Eunuch Wei is here."

While they were talking and laughing, a guard walked up to Ji Wenhao and whispered.

"Please."

Ji Wenhao immediately became solemn and acted very solemnly.

If there is anyone in the imperial court whom he trusts the most, it is Eunuch Wei, the eunuch of the palm seal and the governor of the embroidered clothes guard.

As a veteran of several dynasties, this Eunuch Wei can be traced back to the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China. He was a young eunuch beside the founding ancestor of the Zhou Dynasty at that time. Because of his high qualifications and ordinary background, he was eventually called to practice in the palace.

Over the course of hundreds of years, he also became a pinnacle of stability for the Zhou royal family.

Sitting in Miyagi City is one of his most important supports.

Therefore, although Eunuch Wei is an eunuch, he respects him very much.

He was even regarded by the late emperor as a meritorious deed by serving the kings of all generations, and he became the only eunuch duke since the founding of the Zhou Dynasty, ranking above all marquises.

Li Chengzhong, who was next to him, immediately put away the flattering smile on his face and stood aside expressionlessly. Eunuch Wei, according to his seniority, could be called his godfather.

soon.

A white-haired old man in a mysterious robe walked into the Imperial Garden. He walked very slowly, as if he was dying. But if you look closely, you can see that every step he takes is precise.

The aura on his body was suppressed to the extreme, like an ordinary old man.

Eunuch Wei's face was very ordinary, the kind that would be hard to spot even if he was in a crowd, but his eyes seemed a bit extraordinary, exuding a faint cyan luster.

"This old slave has met Your Majesty."

Eunuch Wei bowed down, but Ji Wenhao immediately stepped forward to help him up:

"I have told you so many times that when Eunuch Wei sees me, there is no need to salute."

Eunuch Wei shook his head and said bluntly:

"The etiquette cannot be abolished."

"Eunuch Wei, sit down first. I summoned Eunuch Wei this time because there is something I need to trouble Eunuch Wei to do." Ji Wenhao immediately looked serious and started talking about business directly.

"Your Majesty, just ask."

"Some time ago, envoys from the Northern Barbarians came to Beijing, and under my arrangement, the imperial court has prepared for peace talks with the Northern Barbarians."

Eunuch Wei lived in the palace for a long time and rarely left the secret room. He did not know much about most things in the outside world. The responsibilities of the embroidered clothes guard and the palm print eunuch were actually held by other people.

That's why Ji Wenhao gave a special explanation.

"The traitors from the Northern Barbarians are determined to destroy us in the Central Plains. Your Majesty must be careful when it comes to peace talks." Upon hearing the emperor talking about peace talks, Eunuch Wei immediately gave his own advice.

"Don't worry, Eunuch Wei, these are all under my control. In fact, if it weren't for the ongoing civil strife in the Central Plains and the frequent rebellions by rebels, I would never have agreed to such a thing."

"What is the attitude of the patron king? Has he agreed?"

Although Eunuch Wei has not left the palace for a long time, he still has his own judgment on the situation in the outside world. Throughout the court, he feels that only the patron god king can see everything clearly.

Speaking of Ji Chengdao, Ji Wenhao's face looked a little uneasy, but he still suppressed his displeasure and forced out a smile:

"Don't worry, Eunuch Wei, the emperor has no objection to this matter."

"Then the old slave is relieved. I wonder what your majesty asked the old slave to do?"

"The peace talks are only preliminary at the moment. We still need the Northern Barbarian envoys to return to the grassland before they can formally sign the alliance. But my father-in-law also knows that today's world is still open.

There are countless people with rebellious intentions, even within the imperial court, there are people with different intentions. Coupled with the rebels from the Qingtian Sect, I really can't feel at ease. Once they make trouble, the consequences will be unpredictable.

Therefore, I hope that Eunuch Wei will take action and secretly watch over the Northern Man envoys' smooth return to the north. "

Ji Wenhao knew that there were too many people inside and outside the court who did not want peace talks and would probably stop them. In this situation, he didn't know what to believe.

Only then did he find Eunuch Wei.

"If there were other orders, I would never refuse, but I really can't do this." Eunuch Wei shook his head and refused without thinking.

"Why?"

"My biggest duty is to guard the palace and protect Your Majesty, but once I leave the capital, there is no guarantee that nothing will happen. Moreover, I was born in the north, and my whole family was slaughtered by the northern barbarians.

Even if I don't object to Your Majesty's peace talks, you can let me escort the barbarians."

Eunuch Wei stopped talking, but his meaning was clear enough.

"Eunuch Wei, the peace talks are related to the court's major plans." Ji Wenhao frowned.

Eunuch Wei opened his eyes a little and continued:

"My strength is not top-notch. If it is really the thief of Qingtian Sect who makes a move, I may not be able to stop him. Only if King Kaoshan makes a move, it will be safe."

Ji Wenhao's mouth twitched, and he explained helplessly:

"King Kaoshan has been in seclusion a few days ago, and I can't force him to come out. The Buddhist has not returned for half a year since he went to the Great Leiyin Temple last time.

And Master Yaoyue."

He didn't want to ask Yaoyue to move, and he was going to leave her alone, which was not his choice.

As for other people, he was even more afraid that the news would leak out.

Eunuch Wei was silent for a few breaths before continuing:

"If that's the case, it's indeed a bit tricky, but I still say that I really can't leave Beijing, but although I can't leave Beijing, I can take action."

"Does Wei Gong mean to take action to disrupt the secrets of heaven?"

Ji Wenhao's eyes moved slightly.

"Yes, my strength is not top-notch, but after hundreds of years, I have learned a little about the secrets of heaven. I can completely disrupt the secrets of heaven and make people unable to calculate the whereabouts of the Northern Barbarian envoy.

In my opinion, this is the most appropriate method. After all, the more people are mobilized, the greater the possibility of the news leaking out. The best arrangement should be to pretend to be a soldier all the way and to be the Northern Barbarian envoy all the way.

Then I will disrupt the secrets of heaven, and people will not be able to calculate the whereabouts of the Northern Barbarian envoy in a short time. When they reach the northern area, Your Majesty can send someone to meet them."

Listening to the words of Eunuch Wei, Ji Wenhao fell into deep thought, thinking about the feasibility of this matter, and after thinking about it, he found that this seemed to be an excellent arrangement.

Because Eunuch Wei was right, the more people were arranged, the greater the risk of leakage.

The only appropriate choice is to make everyone confused.

After all, whether it was the King of Kaoshan or the national teacher of Buddhism and Taoism, he did not trust him very much, and once the Embroidered Uniform Guards around him took action, they would definitely attract people's attention.

The escort of an ordinary Grandmaster is too dangerous and not worth the loss.

Moreover, it is difficult for ordinary people to sort out the mess of the heavenly secrets in a short period of time, unless someone can calculate it in advance, which is even more impossible.

"Okay, then follow the advice of Duke Wei and mess up the heavenly secrets."
