I am the one running the game

Chapter 57 Forget it? How could this just be forgotten!

While Lu Xingshi waited for the Wen Dao Guan intelligence to arrive, he also waited for the news that the imperial court's 100,000-strong army had been defeated by Aha, King of the Liao Dynasty in the north of Saibei.

In fact, when he heard the news, he was a little confused. With such a huge advantage, how did you lose?

Not to mention that the Liao army in the north of Saibei can only fight about 50,000 people. You have twice as many people as him. Secondly, in terms of the combat power of the soldiers, the soldiers of Dasong are also higher than those of the Liao army in the north of Saibei. They even have corresponding geographical advantages. Now, how do we lose here?
Looking at it again, first the coach was captured, and then the other party controlled the coach to lure him through the information gap, which ultimately led to the destruction of the 100,000-strong army.

After this battle, the imperial court was indeed severely weakened. First, it lost the natural pasture and barrier in the north of Saibei, and then lost a hundred thousand troops inside. Then there was news from the imperial court that peace was to be negotiated.

In short, Saibei will definitely not be able to take it back.

Murong Xuan cursed at this for several days, calling the imperial court useless.

It was not only the court that cursed, but also the world and the people. This incident directly reduced the prestige of the court to the extreme.

And this also caused a rupture in the original public opinion of Hai Qing Heyan. The prerequisite for the princes in the court to control public opinion is of course that the country needs to be strong. In this situation, who is willing to help you?
"The origin of the Wen Dao Hall's predecessor is so complicated?" Lu Xingshi looked at the information in his hand and found that the inheritance of Wen Dao Hall was also the method of the cave. In other words, most of the hidden sects were actually the method of the cave.

Judging from the documents and information recorded in Tingfeng Pavilion, Wen Daoguan was once a minister of Conglong of Dasong, and not only of Dasong, but also of the three dynasties including Qianyan, he was a minister of Conglong when the country was founded. There were also many prime ministers at that time, and their reputation was also very good.

There was no rebellion.

As for the fate of the emperor, there are some mentions in it. Wen Daoguan has been pursuing it from a very early time, but unfortunately there has not been much gain in these years.

Regarding the Wendokan, Tingfengting did not collect much information.

Firstly, it is because Wen Daoguan is far superior to Tingfeng Pavilion in terms of power, and secondly, because Wen Daoguan is now regarded as a court organization. It has served as an official in various courts through three dynasties, and it seems a bit incompatible with Jianghu sects. It is more like A master-disciple inheritance version of the family.

Basically, it is almost the same as the Millennium Family, and it has been very successful in transformation.

Wendokan is the only such powerful hidden sect.

With the dual settings of the imperial court and the hidden world, how can a mere Tingfengting, who publishes entertainment newspapers and inquires about information, be able to touch porcelain? If he really offends the other party, he will be easily crushed to death.

Therefore, Tingfengting did not ask Murong Xuan to continue to make up the money, but just settled with one thousand taels.

Mainly, they were too embarrassed to accept it, because most of the information they were given was from the past or was so incomplete that they couldn't even see it.

"It's complicated, but no one thought that the Jianghu sect would be able to control the imperial court one day." Murong Xuan sighed.

Tingfeng Ting still doesn't know that Cai Qiuhe is the owner of the Wen Dao Hall. In recent decades, Ting Feng Ting has only a few words about the Wen Dao Hall's intelligence collection, and they are still speculations.

Obviously, the existence of this behemoth is no longer accessible to Tingfengting.

"Wrong, Wen Daoguan is no longer a Jianghu sect, but a part of the imperial court." Lu Xingshi corrected him. There was a huge gap here.

Even Jianghu sects are not qualified to compete with Wendao Hall.

Not even Huangjue Palace. "However, it is certain that the original Wen Daoguan was mainly focused on protecting the family and the people and serving the country with loyalty. Unless the imperial court goes against the grain, it will assist the new king."

"But after the Wen Dao Hall fell into the hands of Cai Qiuhe, it became a tool of his ambition." Murong Xuan said with a stereotype.

Lu Xingshi was more inclined to think that he might have had a plan long ago. This kind of behavior of disciples and old officials all over the court was no different from the four generations and three princes. It was impossible to accumulate such a thick capital without active management.

In fact, this is more terrifying than the Fourth Generation and the Three Dukes. According to Lu Xingshi's observation, Wen Daoguan has at least monopolized most of Da Song's prime minister positions. These political resources have been continuously inherited and accumulated, and only in the hands of Cai Qiuhe can he dominate the sky. Cai Qiuhe alone cannot do this.

Lu Xingshi did not refute Murong Xuan, but changed the subject: "Then let's go to Kyoto now and hack to death Cai Qiuhe and everyone in the Wen Dao Hall?"

In fact, there are other ways, but Lu Xingshi's mind tells him that he can solve this problem with strength, and other methods are too troublesome.

"This..." Murong Xuan hesitated. Of course he wanted to send Cai Qiuhe on his way, but if he and the Wen Dao Hall were really touched, Da Song might die suddenly on the spot.

Once something goes wrong in Dasong and the barbarians in the north of the Great Wall move southward, the mountains and rivers will inevitably be broken up and the world will be invaded by foreigners.

This is not what he wants to see.

In the end, he sighed: "Otherwise, forget it."

"Forget it? How can we forget it? If I don't tear off their heads and use them as balls, I really think I have no temper." Of course Lu Xingshi refused to agree.

It's true that he has a kind heart, but it's more of a small kindness. If he sees someone injured in front of him, unable to move, or starving to death, he will reach out to help.

But if someone tells him something about the common people in the world, all the people, etc., he will only nod and say that you are right, and then ignore him. In his eyes, this is more like kidnapping him morally.

Because the people in the world are far away from him, so far away that he doesn't know how to empathize. At least... he has to see what it means to be in ruins before he can believe it.

Instead of always saying that barbarians are foreigners, in his eyes, barbarians are also human beings.

To him, Da Song was just a foreigner, that is, Murong Xuan was there, so he was biased towards Da Song. If one day Murong Xuan planned to rebel as a direct descendant of the Da Yan royal family, then Lu Xingshi would also be biased towards him. This is the Yan royal family rather than the Da Song court.

"When this matter is over, let's kill Cai Qiuhe, and then find the thief who burned Langya Pavilion. It will be over." Murong Xuan concluded the matter.

"..." Seeing this, Lu Xingshi could only nod. It didn't matter that he couldn't promote the Wen Dao Hall now. It wouldn't be too late for him to take action after Murong Xuan died.

Well, given the current situation in Dasong, Dasong might have been killed by the barbarian Rong Di before Murong Xuan died.

"After the situation stabilizes, what will happen if Cai Qiuhe usurps the throne?" Lu Xingshi suddenly thought of this matter.

"We can kill him openly." Murong Xuan thought for a while and said seriously. Usurping the throne is treason. If they take action, not only will they not have to worry about the situation collapsing, but they will stabilize the situation.
