Entertainment of Spring and Autumn

Chapter 87: Mind

Lu Shutong, the double envoy of Hehuan, was captured alive by six gates, castrated halfway, abolished martial arts, and yelled at the six gates. As soon as the news came out, it was like an earthquake, spread all over the capital in an instant, and spread to the entire world with extremely terrifying efficiency.

The sensation it caused was even more eye-catching than Xue Qingqiu breaking through the six-hole virtual siege, because most others did not know about Xue Qingqiu's battle. They only knew that there was an explosion in the west of the city. It is impossible for the strong who participated in the war to speak out. Some people who know the inside story are also silent. But Lu Shutong's case is a living yelling before the eyes of the world, with unparalleled deterrence.

Among the six doors, countless people from large and small sects and families came to visit Xiahoudi that night, and their gifts filled the side hall.

Xiahoudi sent these flies away most of the night. Looking at the dazzling array of gifts, he didn't know whether he should be satisfied or sigh.

Others only saw six doors in this endless scenery. She herself was inexplicably excited before, but after calming down, the more she thought about it, the more she felt cold.

Xue Mu has already made a request through the imperial emissary Li Gonggong. It is a trivial matter to ask for some treasures of heaven and earth. This proposal of knighthood is a political plan. It is enough to cause the Xingyue Sect to undergo earth-shaking changes, and even affect both the right and the demons. The overall situation of Tao has a profound influence on the current situation of the world.

Under normal circumstances, this is impossible. Remnants of the Demon Sect, if Zhaoan gives you a free job, it is considered a great grace. What do the courts think about the title of no merit?

But in the current situation, the father is in peace talks with Xingyuezong. She understands that the father is a person, and her decisive appearance hides the extreme selfishness and cowardice. Now she is afraid that the Xingyuezong will smash a big basket in one shot. There will be great concessions. As long as the request is not too unbearable, the possibility of acceptance is very high.

The emperor passed this pass, and it was difficult for the government and the opposition to tell. Xue Mu needed a feat that made people speechless, so the feat came.

It didn't take much effort to get rid of Lu Shutong with the help of her six doors, which was not only a great feat in removing powerful enemies.

She Xiahoudi will not refuse this cooperation, because the six doors need this heavy feat so much to win the world. This is a naked win-win. The benefits of the six doors are great, but Xue Mu also accomplished him. All calculation needs of the

Starting from the first word of that Xiaohuangwen writing...it's wrong, I'm afraid it was the moment when he said to her "I'm mine" on the day of the incident, maybe this layout had already sprouted in his heart.

Everyone thought that he wrote this little yellow article to avenge six doors, plus the meaning of advertising to Xingyuezong at the end, it would be great to kill two birds with one stone, but he had never thought that he had hidden a deeper situation earlier ?

It's really scary when I think about it. People like Xue Mu, with the full support of Xingyuezong, continue to give him time and space, really don't know what stormy waves will be set off.

But now she couldn't even think of restricting Xue Mu. Ashamed, grateful, admired, admired, and fearful to be mixed together, and even faintly embarrassed, she didn't know what tone of voice she should use next time she saw Xue Mu.

By the way... she suddenly had a flash of inspiration. Xue Mu wants to invite the Xingyue Sect to be noble, and he needs to be canonized by the court... How about giving him an official hat at the same time?

It was not the first time that she wanted to pull Xue Mu into the court. This time, she couldn't hold back her thoughts together. Xiahou Di rushed to the palace again no matter it was midnight.

Seeing a red dress rushing from a long distance, the palace gate guards all shrank, and there was not even a questioner, so they opened the door obediently.

Ji Qingyuan was in the imperial study room, looking at the long list of lists handed by Grandpa Li, his cheeks twitched with distress: "This Xue Mu is really a lion!"

Grandpa Li bowed his head respectfully and said: "The demon, the demon, there is also a moment of forgetfulness. Bargaining, it should be possible to reduce it."

"Then leave it to the manager." Ji Qingyuan obviously didn't care too much, rubbing his head tiredly: "Is it useless, he still refuses to take action?"

"He has resentment in his heart and is unwilling to treat King Yong. This is conceivable." Gonggong Li respectfully said: "The old slave thought that if Xingyue Zong were to be knighted, he would be afraid to rescue King Yong. It's hard to shirk."

"It makes sense." Ji Qingyuan nodded and said: "In fact, I have had this idea of ​​granting Xingyuezong nobility a long time ago, so that it can really create a check and balance on the right way. Xue Mu mentioned this time, but it is considered to be with me. Think of it together."

Li Gonggong was contemptuous in his heart, and he said clearly when he was afraid, he was really shameless to put gold on his face.

At this moment, Tong Bing, the **** outside the door, said: "Your Majesty, President Xiahou is arrested for seeing you.

"Let her in, this matter also just needs to see her opinion."

Xiahoudi strode in, bowed his hand, and looked disrespectful: "See Your Majesty."

Ji Qingyuan didn't care about her rudeness, and said with a smile: "Today, we captured Lu Shutong alive, and the six doors are majestic to the world. Di'er's contribution is also great."

Xiahoudi didn't make any statement about the title of "Di'er", but said: "This is a matter of six doors. I just don't know if it violates your majesty's plan to support the magic door."

I'm really afraid of this, she would have come to ask for instructions a long time ago. At this time, it was obvious that she would only cut first and then play. Ji Qingyuan didn’t care: “It’s okay. There are not many demon gates that are really worth looking at. The death of Lu Shutong does not have any impact on the whole pattern. Besides, the ruthless people of the Acacia Sect, let alone fight for Lu Shutong. The goal of head-catching was chosen very well..."

Changed the title of "head catcher" again... Xiahoudi was more natural on the contrary, and said sternly: "This is Xue Mu's suggestion."

Ji Qingyuan sighed: "He is also for himself. Recruiting an award of nobleness is normal, but the situation of the Xingyue Sect is not even considered to be a nobleness, which is difficult to convince the public. But with this skill, he added eight. Hold it down."

Xia Houdi resolutely said: "The ruling and the wild, what do you care about them! Even if you don't have this merit, you should be knighted. This is the only way to appease Xingyuezong, otherwise Xue Mu will be angry and will have trouble sooner or later."

Ji Qingyuan was a little surprised: "Is the head catcher really so afraid of Xue Mu?"

Xiahoudi did not answer, tacitly accepting this.

Ji Qingyuan said: "A poisonous man who is just a little bit angry...Since you are jealous, you are looking for opportunities to kill."

Xiahoudi and Grandpa Li changed their expressions at the same time: "No!"

Looking at Li Gonggong strangely, Xiahoudi didn't think much about it, and hurriedly said: "Now that Xue Mu is killed, no matter what clues are arranged, Xue Qingqiu will only calculate the account to the court! Could it be that your majesty is still going to kill Xue Mu. Xue Qingqiu once?"

Ji Qingyuan sighed, "I can only caress?"

Xia Houdi resolutely said: "Only caress. Weichen suggested that not only Xingyue Sect Master, but also Xue Mu a position. Xue Mu is a person who values ​​love and kindness and is not a demon. If he can be sincere and kind. , There will be rewards in the future."

This time it was Grandpa Li's turn to glance at her strangely, and secretly said that the princess's understanding of Xue Mu was a little bit extraordinary. If you really treat Xue Mu well, someone like Xue Mu will really remember him and will pay back sooner or later. Xiahoudi was very accurate, and this was the best strategy to deal with Xue Mu.

Ji Qingyuan tapped his finger on the desk for a while, then suddenly smiled: "Then... even the title will be given to Xue Mu."

Xiahoudi didn't react for a moment: "What does this mean?"

Ji Qingyuan showed a mocking smile: "Xue Mu's current authority in the Xingyue Sect comes from Xue Qingqiu's trust and decentralization. Once he is also an official position of the court, and Xue Qingqiu does not... the relationship between the two may also become subtle. , Not to be afraid."

Li Gonggong was stunned for a long time, and he also showed a mocking smile. No one knew who was mocking him.

Xiahoudi only felt a burst of exhaustion in his heart. At this time, I was still playing with the emperor's heart, and still playing with political tricks...

In theory, Ji Qingyuan's idea might make sense. Let alone fake siblings, even for couples, this kind of provocation is often very effective. Once the two of them had a discord, the king would not be in harmony with each other, and Xingyuezong would not be a problem.

But Xiahoudi still felt that Xue Qingqiu had a grand vision and Xue Mu's heart was like a mirror. This seemingly reasonable strategy might be meaningless when applied to the two of them. It was obviously an official position that could win over Xue Mu, and his life would have a counterproductive effect. He would not remember this favor, but would hate the court even more.

She opened her mouth to persuade, but Ji Qingyuan waved her hand: "That's it. Xue Mu's position is Lingzhou City Lord. I really want to see the expression of the entire Demon Gate at that time."

Xiahoudi closed his eyes helplessly.

Ji Qingyuan pondered for a moment: "For the time being, I can only appoint a third-class baron, do you have any suggestions for the title?"

Xiahoudi said frustratedly: "Let your majesty decide."

Grandpa Li also flattered: "Your Majesty’s vision is ten times better than the old slaves, what can the old slaves suggest..."

"Heh..." Ji Qingyuan knocked on the desk table with satisfaction: "Gutongyuan...Feng Xiwu. Xingyuezong is also Phoenix Nirvana this time. Xue Mu's knight is... Phoenix male, how about? "
