Chapter 372 Returning to Wagang, people’s hearts are filled with confusion
Now that the alliance has been concluded, Huanwan has completed her mission and naturally has to leave.

When the moment of farewell came, Huanwan's eyes revealed a gentle and nostalgic light.

She looked at Zhao Mingyuan tenderly with her eyes, as if she wanted to stare at him as much as possible and imprint him deeply in her heart.

And the corners of her slightly trembling lips were slightly pursed, showing her inner struggle and pain at this moment of separation.

Although she tried to keep smiling, the subtle lines at the corners of her eyes revealed a hint of sadness and reluctance.

Huanwan slowly raised her hand, unable to help but want to touch Zhao Mingyuan's face.

Her fingers tremble slightly, as if conveying the emotional ups and downs deep inside her.

However, before touching Zhao Mingyuan, she involuntarily stopped, her hands hanging in mid-air, revealing her hesitation and heartache about separation.

Finally, Huanwan turned around, her body trembling slightly, and tried to leave.The moment she was about to leave, she couldn't help but look back again and cast one last glance.

The eyes were filled with deep affection and nostalgia, as if he wanted to remember Zhao Mingyuan's figure in his heart forever.

Huanwan's expression of reluctance was so sincere and touching, making everyone who witnessed this scene feel her nostalgia and endless longing for Zhao Mingyuan deep in her heart.

Many people wished they could step forward and hug this reluctant beauty in Zhao Mingyuan's place, telling her not to leave, that they needed her.

Perhaps, only the person whom Huanwan wanted to touch the most did not dare to move.

This journey is indeed beautiful and unforgettable. Zhao Mingyuan will keep it all in mind.But Zhao Mingyuan naturally did not dare to forget Fang Zetao's lessons learned.

Since I have chosen the greediest and most difficult path, and want this prickly rose as well as other blooming flowers, I naturally have to take the strongest path and take control of everything.

Returning to Xingyang, where the Wagang Army is currently stationed, Zhao Mingyuan found that the place had a completely new look and was completely different from its original appearance.

When Zhao Mingyuan left, Xingyang had just experienced the war, and it was a scene of ruins and dilapidation.

The devastation of the war destroyed many buildings and infrastructure, and traces of the war remain on the streets.People are displaced, living in hardship and hardship, and the city is desolate and sad.

But the scene today is completely different.

Xingyang not only restored the destroyed buildings, but also implemented reconstruction, making the city full of vitality.

The appearance of the city has been completely renewed, the streets are wide and clean, the restored houses have restored their former glory, and the flowers, plants and trees lining the streets add vitality and beauty to the city.

Compared with the post-war decline, Xingyang today is full of vitality and prosperity.

Shops and storefronts have reopened, small traders and hawkers are hawking loudly in the streets, and laughter and joy permeate every corner of the city.

This kind of comparison makes people feel inspired and uplifting.

For Zhao Mingyuan, seeing Xingyang's transformation from ruins to the present made him more convinced that he could change the world just like he changed the city in front of him.

Perhaps it seems that the current changes in Xingyang are all caused by Zhai Rang and Li Mi, and Zhao Mingyuan was not here at all during this time, so how can he be blamed?

But Zhao Mingyuan knew clearly that without him, Xingyang today would still be the same as what Gao Zhong and Xu Ziling saw when they came here in the original work.

At that time, the two factions of Zhai Rang and Li Mi were at war with each other, and the battle had become fierce. There was a post every five steps and a sentry every ten steps in the city, just like a powder keg that was about to explode at any time.

Both of them wanted to use all possible means to kill the other first, using all possible methods, including kidnapping their wives and daughters, and assassinating them. How could they be in the mood to resume construction?It is even less possible to have the grand occasion today.

Zhao Mingyuan was walking on the streets of Xingyang. This seemingly ordinary street scene made him so happy that he couldn't get enough of it.

It's a pity that Zhao Mingyuan is no longer what he used to be, and I don't know how many people are watching his whereabouts.As soon as he stepped into the city, the news of his return spread quickly.

Therefore, Zhao Mingyuan had not been around for long when someone came to his door and invited him to the main hall to discuss matters.

Moreover, perhaps because someone had specially told them, the messenger also emphasized that Da Longtou, Pu Shanggong and the generals under Zhao Mingyuan had all assembled and were waiting for Zhao Mingyuan to go to the meeting.

Zhao Mingyuan guessed that what he had done in Luoyang had already been reported back, but he did not expect that they were in such a hurry. He had just returned and had to focus on discussing matters.

Which one is this?

Could it be that this was the Hongmen Banquet, where a trap had already been set to deceive him, and just waiting for the signal of throwing a cup, all kinds of methods were used, and even an army surrounded and killed him to deal with him?

Not to mention that the possibility is too low, even if there is a trap, Zhao Mingyuan is a brave man and will not be afraid.

So Zhao Mingyuan asked the guards to lead the way, and soon followed him to the meeting hall.

At this time, everyone already knew what happened in Luoyang, and they all looked at Zhao Mingyuan who walked into the hall with different expressions.

It seemed that everyone had known in advance that Zhao Mingyuan was coming back. All the generals gathered in the tent. Almost all the prominent people in Wagang Village were here, except for Zhao Mingyuan.Even Li Mi, Shen Luoyan and others who went to Luoyang at the beginning arrived before Zhao Mingyuan.

It seemed that unlike Zhao Mingyuan and Huanwan who took a leisurely ride, they were traveling day and night, so they could wait here early.

However, I don’t know how long they have been back, and what tricks have they devised to deal with Zhao Mingyuan?

Presumably they have already thought about it during this time.For Zhao Mingyuan, the great master, how to deal with it is more appropriate.

In fact, Li Mi's men also had different mentality.Even as early as in Luoyang, they had internal differences, and their opinions on Zhao Mingyuan could never be unified.

Li Mi had an ancestor who was one of the Three Dukes, and he once followed Yang Xuangan in revolting against the Sui Dynasty. His prestige over the years allowed him to recruit countless capable people.

Some of these people were talented but unscrupulous people like Wang Bodang, who followed Li Mi in order to gain wealth.

Of course, there are many people like Shen Luoyan who follow Li Mi out of the righteousness in their hearts or to realize their dreams and display their talents, believing that he can calm the world and rebuild the world.

These people assisted Li Mi to strengthen Wagang Village, defeated the Sui army's soldiers many times, and established the Pushan Gongying.

If Zhao Mingyuan had not appeared, they would have helped Li Mi seize the power of Wagang Village.

But now, facing the sudden emergence of Zhao Mingyuan, everyone has different opinions and different positions, and cannot reach a unanimous conclusion.

After all, everyone can see from the current situation that Zhao Mingyuan has a better chance of winning.

Although everyone had made an agreement before, whoever defeated Luoyang first was the king, but Xiang Yu and Liu Bang also made that agreement at the beginning. You see, Xiang Yu didn't break the agreement later.

Even Liu Bang had to obey.

Could Li Mi expect that after he defeated Luoyang first, Zhao Mingyuan would keep his promise?
Today's situation is inexplicably similar to that of the late Qin Dynasty. Both the previous dynasties were violent and the second generation died, and the princes established multiple alliances.It's a pity that although Li Mi took the script of the protagonist Liu Bang, his path to success has been blocked by his predecessors.

Having learned from Xiang Yu’s mistakes, Zhao Mingyuan would never make the same mistake again.I'm afraid that even if Li Mi really defeats Luoyang first, his end will only be an inexplicable sudden death.

This can be seen even if there are some people who are talented but have no morals and are even sycophants.Since it was for glory and wealth, they naturally had no psychological barriers to switching families and joining Zhao Mingyuan.

But some people are still hesitant.

One is the fear that the situation is uncertain and there may be changes.

After all, you can't really rely on the Grand Master to conquer the world. What's more, even the Grand Master is not invincible.

In fact, if Zhai asked Li Mi to join forces, and get the full support of Buddhism and various princes and forces, and jointly set a trap to deal with Zhao Mingyuan, it may not be impossible to succeed.

Although the Grand Master can take the head of a general from a crowd of thousands of troops, if he is surrounded by heavy troops and is besieged and restrained by masters, then the Grand Master will fall after exhausting his true energy. It depends on whether anyone is willing to take the risk. Give it a try.

After all, even if you are willing to pay such a high price, as long as the Grand Master wants to leave, the chance of success is very small.

Secondly, naturally everyone saw that Zhao Mingyuan seemed to be much more upright than Li Mi, so they were afraid that he would not be able to tolerate sand in his eyes.

In this way, even if they seek refuge with Zhao Mingyuan, they may not be reused.

As a result, they always have difficulty making decisions, leading to further fragmentation into more hills.

But those who have both ability and political integrity and great ambitions like Shen Luoyan also have different opinions.

Some people believe that Zhao Mingyuan is the wise master who can unify the world, and want to support Zhao Mingyuan.

Another group of people from aristocratic families saw that the system Zhao Mingyuan wanted to implement would obviously cause huge damage to their family's interests, so they were more resistant.

Of course, there are still some people who believe that Zhao Mingyuan is indeed a wise master who can be encountered but cannot be sought in troubled times, but for the loyalty in their hearts, they are still prepared to swear allegiance to Li Mi to the death.

In short, everyone under Li Mi now has different opinions and various psychology.

And Li Mi's reaction was also quite strange. Everyone didn't know what he was thinking. He didn't break it off immediately and deal with it immediately. Instead, he allowed these discussions to ferment internally, causing people's hearts to fluctuate and become more and more intense.

Many people think that Li Mi felt desperate when facing an opponent like Zhao Mingyuan, and thus lost his former ambitions.

Such rumors spread, and people's hearts were even more shaken.

Li Mi's men secretly expressed their goodwill to Zhao Mingyuan's men, and there were many people who expressed their desire to join Zhao Mingyuan.Some people have even begun to openly discuss making Zhao Mingyuan the head of Wagang Village.

Of course, in their mouths, Zhao Mingyuan is the Lord of Destiny and the incarnation of the true emperor. Only he can lead everyone to build a beautiful new world.

They are doing this to obey Heaven's orders and for the sake of the world!
