Chapter 1127 Inference

Without gain, Jin Bai will not escape the punishment of Emperor Mou.

He Lingchuan also sighed: "It seems that it is not Elder Cao himself."

Jin Bai and Dong Rui both questioned the witness disciples individually, and repeatedly asked for details, and then cross-checked everyone's answers. This is a skill in interrogation, which can try to seek the truth.

After verification, it is very unlikely that these disciples lied.

"In other words, King Wei lied and framed Elder Cao casually." Jin Bai said coldly, "These small countries are really unafraid!"

Then he said to He Lingchuan: "I will write a letter and send it back to the imperial capital. Mr. He, do you have anything to add?"

He Lingchuan thought about it and shook his head: "No."

Jin Bai went to draft the letter himself.

This letter is very important. After Emperor Mou reads it, he will give corresponding instructions.

Should we punish Wei severely, or just let it go?

He Lingchuan looked at the dark outline of Baimao Mountain and asked Dong Rui: "What do you think Emperor Mou will choose?"

"If the Heart Lamp can be used, then needless to say, we must take it back." It was rare that He Lingchuan took the initiative to ask for his opinion this time. Dong Rui thought for a long time, "If it can't be used, what's the point of punishing the Kingdom of Bian? These small countries on the Shining Gold Plain are born and die in the morning, and they are all short-lived ghosts. Even if Emperor Mou doesn't care about it, maybe Bian will disappear on its own in a few years."

"In Emperor Mou's position, the most common consideration is nothing more than gains and losses. He should not take actions that are not worth the loss." Dong Rui laughed again: "Of course, maybe Emperor Mou wants to kill the chicken to scare the monkey, so that these small countries will not know fear!"

"That makes sense. This is also one of the gains and losses that Emperor Mou has to consider." He Lingchuan nodded. "What actions he will take depends on the current situation of the State of Mou."

"I remember Fang Canran said that Lingshan intends to reach out to the Shining Gold Plain again. Then the State of Mou may also use this opportunity to hit the State of Biao to establish its prestige and give the surrounding small countries some eye drops, so that it will be easier to deal with them in the future." He Lingchuan pondered, "The residents of the Shining Gold Plain probably understand the principle of the survival of the fittest and the winner is the king more deeply than people in other places. To deal with them, we must use a way that they can understand and hear."

The considerations of the monarch of a big country must have many dimensions.

It was rare for him to praise once, and Dong Rui was very happy: "You also said that it is inconvenient for the State of Mou to send troops here. If Emperor Mou wants to teach King Biao a lesson, what should he do? Borrow troops from Xiaoyao Sect?"

Xiaoyao Sect has enough manpower and is not weak in strength-at least relative to Biao, it is close. Sending troops from here, they will arrive in the morning and evening, and Biao will not react. They will be at the gates of the city, right?

He Lingchuan poured cold water on him: "Mou State is Mou State, Xiaoyao Sect is Xiaoyao Sect, the two are not one and the same. Emperor Mou can borrow people from Xiaoyao Sect, but he may not be able to order Xiaoyao Sect to start a war against neighboring countries."

Xiaoyao Sect is an independent Taoist sect anyway. Although it has a bad relationship with the Kingdom of Biao and pays tribute to the Kingdom of Mou regularly, it may not devote all its strength to teach or subvert neighboring countries.

He talked with Master Li today and felt that this Taoist sect knew how to protect itself, otherwise it would not have survived for more than a hundred years in the chaotic land of the Shining Gold Plain. Sending troops directly may violate its long-standing survival strategy, and after the Mingdengzhan incident, how will it deal with its relationship with the Kingdom of Biao?

At that time, Jin Bai and other warriors of the Kingdom of Mou can pat their butts and leave, but Xiaoyao Sect and the Kingdom of Biao are neighbors that cannot be moved away.

Dong Rui asked him again: "If you were Emperor Mou, how would you punish the Kingdom of Biao?"

"Not difficult." He Lingchuan thought without hesitation, "If you can't send troops directly, then make good use of the surrounding forces; if Xiaoyao Sect is unwilling to lend, there will always be other forces that are willing to lend. How Yu Zecheng dealt with me and Zhu Erniang, how Emperor Mou will deal with the Kingdom of Biao now."

Nine months ago, Yu Zecheng of Beijia wanted He Lingchuan to hand over Zhu Erniang, but he didn't have many people under him, what should he do?

Borrowing power.

Didn't he find the Daofeng Port Maritime Customs, the Bailie Lu family, and finally the uncle and nephew of Wanqi Song to launch an island rebellion?

Borrowing power to fight against power has always been a method used by big countries.

"This kind of small country has an unstable foundation and a weak foundation. As long as the power is clever, it may achieve extraordinary success." To make an inappropriate analogy, just as Beijia didn't take the Yangshan Islands seriously at the beginning, the Kingdom of Mou today would not think that the Kingdom of Biao is difficult to deal with.

Dong Rui clicked his tongue twice.

Wait for time to prove it.

"Why do I feel that there is something fishy about the King of Biao framing Elder Cao?"

"You are right. This lie will be exposed if it is poked. If the King of Biao really wants to deceive, he might as well say that the Jianghu magician sold him the Mingdeng, so that there is no trace of it." He Lingchuan said, "Framing Elder Cao will only further anger the Mou Kingdom."

"Then the Mou Kingdom..."

"The whereabouts of the Mingdeng have been found, and the King of Biao has also offended the Mou Kingdom. If the Mou Kingdom wants to take action, these two reasons are enough. Even if the truth is finally found out, it will not change Emperor Mou's decision."

In the Shining Gold Plain, even life and death are not important, let alone the truth?

"In fact, I think the man who secretly brokered the deal may have the ability to change his appearance." He Lingchuan recalled, "If nothing else, he could impersonate Cao Yanhua to trade with the King of Biao."

Dong Ruiqi said, "Officials wear official badges, even if they don't have Yuanli to fight, at least they can see through this magical power, right?"

"Maybe it's not a magical power?" He Lingchuan pondered, "Besides, Biao is weak and its Yuanli is thin, and these public officials may not be able to see through the other party's disguise."

Whether the magical power can be seen through depends not only on the energy level of the magical power itself, but also on the strength of the Yuanli.

In He Lingchuan's opinion, the country's Yuan Power was so weak that it was almost non-existent.

He pointed to the mountains ahead: "Go to sleep and go for a walk in the mountains tomorrow."

…

On the way north to Baimao Mountain, you will inevitably pass by Hezhen.

Almost all the living people in this town were slaughtered by the White Bear King. Even the dozens of strong men from the rural protection team were not spared. Only two or three townspeople stayed out for the night and escaped this murderous disaster.

He Lingchuan and others passed through the middle of the town. The corpses here had been buried, but black blood stains could always be seen on the buildings. The doors and windows were the most damaged. It was obvious that monsters and beasts had broken in.

The once peaceful and peaceful town has now turned into a miserable ghostland. He Lingchuan's sense of smell was not as sharp as Fu Shanyue's, but he also felt that the summer wind could not blow away the smell of blood in the town.

The door panel couldn't help but sigh: "If the country is not strong, the people will not be able to live and work in peace and contentment, and even monsters will come out to cause trouble."

There are still many living people in action here, including city guards and demon slayers.

They used this place as their base to search for the whereabouts of the monsters.

The official gathered the hunters to form a demon-killing team. Every fifty people were divided into a team, and some experienced old hunters were found to lead the team in an attempt to intercept the White Bear King.
