Chapter 215 Li Yao Is Furious

"Jie Jie Jie!"

The four peak sages in the sky looked at the ruins below. King Chu's carriage had long been blown into powder, and laughed.

"The little King Chu is ridiculous."

"You think if you send a fake King of Chu in front to attract attention, we won't be able to find him?"

"If four of our peak sages can sneak attack, King Chu will not die unjustly!"

"Ha ha!"

The great ancestor of the Zhou family burst out laughing, so happy that he finally avenged the death of the Venerable and Zhou Yan.

Not far away, an old man stood in the air and stared at the four people in shock.

He was the venerable leader of Tianlei Pavilion, a powerful force in Lianzhou, and a good friend of the ancestor of the Zhou family. He was originally invited to come to the gathering.

Unexpectedly, they suddenly pulled out this scene and assassinated the King of Chu?

And it worked!

They had seen the face of King Chu flashing past in the carriage from a distance before, and they made sure that King Chu was in the carriage before striking with thunder.

"You are so scheming, do you want to drag us, Tianlei Pavilion, into the water?"

For a moment, the Lord Tianlei's face was extremely gloomy. He looked at the great ancestor of the Zhou family who was laughing and his eyes were faintly spitting fire. He gritted his teeth and said, in addition to anger, there was also a bit of resentment and resentment hidden in his tone.

Seeing the anger of Lord Tianlei, the patriarch of the Zhou family looked at each other and the other three people. With one movement, he moved tens of meters in one step and came to him in just a few breaths.

Lord Tianlei frowned and took a step back, several hundred meters away.

Seeing this, the patriarch of the Zhou family stopped in mid-air and showed a sly smile: "Old Xu, you should know that King Chu is now the governor of Huanzhou. If we don't get rid of him, we will be finished. We can only take this last step."

"If you except us, why do you want to drag us into Tianlei Pavilion!"

Venerable Tianlei’s name is Xu, Venerable Xu said angrily.

Such a big thing as the murder of King Chu will shake the entire Dayu Dynasty, and any clues will be found. He was invited by Zhou Hong, the ancestor of the Zhou family. Many elders of Tianlei Pavilion already knew about it, and he couldn't hide it from those present. .

Now that I think about it, it was Zhou Hong's intention.

"Mr. Xu, do you think your Tianlei Pavilion can escape? Liancang Mansion is your Tianlei Pavilion's territory. King Chu is dead. Do you think the royal family will doubt you?"

The voice buzzed, and a fierce man with a height of nine feet and a stout body like a giant bear snorted coldly.

Xu Xiong, the top leader of the Black Dragon Gang, is Xu Kuang's younger brother. He is fierce and wild and has always been full of disdain for this kind of power that hides behind and enjoys its gains.

"Do you think they won't take action against you if you don't openly resist the imperial court now? If King Chu takes Huanzhou or King Ming takes Huanzhou, do you think they will let you go? You are in Lianzhou during this period You should know what you did, and the royal family will settle the score sooner or later."

"Hmph, we can do our own thing, why do you need to come and teach us!" Venerable Xu snorted coldly.

"Oh, do you want to sit back and enjoy the possibility..."

Seeing what Xu Xiong wanted to say, Song Yaohui, the venerable member of the Song family, quickly stopped him and showed a gentle smile to the venerable Xu:

"Venerable Xu, we have no choice but to get rid of the King of Chu. We have no choice but to move within the scope of your pavilion. After all, apart from Liancang Mansion, it is not far from Lingzhou. We are afraid of any accidents. Things have already happened, you guys... Lei Ge might as well cooperate with us.”

"That's right, wouldn't it be better for us to overthrow the Yu Dynasty together and establish our own dynasty? If the descendants have the strength, they may not be able to establish a dynasty as powerful as the Yu Dynasty!" The venerable Wang family also persuaded.

Zhou Hong’s eyes flickered and he said very sincerely:

"Now that we have eliminated King Chu, Lingzhou will be captured by us soon. When the time comes, we will ally with Fengzhou to deal with King Ming. If there is no more danger around us, we can become king on our own!

Why don’t you Lianzhou forces join us? "

Venerable Xu's heart moved. It would be false to say that every major force does not want to establish a dynasty of its own. Although Lianzhou is now controlled by their major forces, everyone knows that this is only temporary. As a neutral, whether it is Whether the dynasty wins or the alliance of states wins, these victors will not let them go.

Venerable Xu fell silent. Tianlei Pavilion had already been arguing about this matter for a long time, and there was no conclusion. Maybe this was really an opportunity.

Seeing Venerable Xu's somewhat moved expression, Zhou Hong gave Xu Xiong a look.

Xu Xiong understood, and then a sneer appeared on his face. He crossed his arms and said disdainfully: "You must think clearly. If we take Lingzhou and alliance with Fengzhou to deal with King Ming, the imperial court will definitely send troops. Your Lianzhou power will arrive." There are two choices at this time. One is to continue to join the imperial court and become their cannon fodder. The other is to defeat the imperial army like us and become the real master of the state capital. But you don’t have to think about the second option. Do you think you are worthless? Can the state power withstand the imperial army? It’s better to just continue to be the imperial dog and live a human life with your tail between your legs.”

"Old Xu, I believe you no longer want to surrender to the imperial court. This time of trouble is our greatest hope."

Venerable Xu was aroused by Xu Xiong, but he soon sighed secretly and was persuaded by Zhou Hong. He met Zhou Hong's expectant eyes and said:

"If the imperial court sends troops, will you arrive with our Lianzhou forces?"

After hearing Venerable Xu's words, Song Yaohui and Venerable Wang Jia's eyes lit up and showed joy.

Done!

"Of course, if the imperial court sends troops, we and the Fengzhou Alliance will send troops to assist you and help you resist the imperial court outside the border of Lianzhou. How can we not understand the truth that the imperial court is dying outside the border of Lianzhou? As long as the Dayu Dynasty remains, the alliances of various states will be die-hard allies! "

Zhou Hong's face was solemn and his tone was firm, which was very convincing.

"Okay, I'll go back and discuss it with the Pavilion Master." Venerable Xu looked at the ruins below, his eyes stern, wondering how long it would take to wait until now!

"Time waits for no one, and the news of King Chu's loss will come out in a few days. After your Tianlei Pavilion makes the decision, persuade other major forces in Lianzhou as soon as possible and make preparations as soon as possible!" Song Yaohui reminded.

"If necessary, your Tianlei Pavilion can directly contact our Huanzhou Alliance, and we will definitely assist you."

"good!"

As the sky fluctuated slightly, the figure of the Five Paths Venerables disappeared in mid-air...

Only the ruins below proved that they had been there.

……………………

Although the four peak sages controlled the attack range within ten miles, the terrifying fluctuations and ground vibrations were felt by cities hundreds of miles away.

The big families in the city are all extremely solemn. Such terrifying fluctuations must only be caused by a strong man above the Tianwu realm!

It wasn't until half a day later that there was no more fluctuation, that they sent spies out of the city to explore the battle.

Soon these spies found the ruins, and they were all horrified. How strong could such a terrifying battle break out?

"It's His Majesty!"

One of the spies said in horror, then immediately backed away and quickly left the place.

His Majesty's taking action is not a small matter, it is a struggle between big forces!

The spies who came after hearing the news also showed frightened expressions and left in a hurry.

Soon the news of Lord Lian Cang Mansion's action slowly spread.

Yinghui County, now the largest bandit village, Liangshan Village, is located in the east of Yinghui County, close to Cangyang County. It stands on the largest mountain among the mountains. Behind the mountain is a cliff, surrounded by high hills and stone soil on three sides. There is only one winding road up this mountain, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

On the cliff wall of the back mountain, the mountain wind was hunting, Li Yuan's eyes were calm, looking directly at the terrifying and fluctuating scene in the distance, without any emotion.

In addition to Song Jiang and Yang Zhi, there was also a white-haired old man standing behind Li Yuan in the entire back mountain.

"Gongming, Yang Zhi, you did a good job."

After a while, Li Yuan turned back to look at the two of them and praised them.

After receiving Li Yuan's praise, Song Jiang smiled modestly, and Yang Zhi was slightly excited.

The old man next to them looked at Li Yuan carefully.

It turns out that there is a big shot above the leader of Song Village!

This old man is a talent recruited by Song Jiang. He is a master of disguise and can change his appearance.

The "Li Yuan" on the carriage before was made by him.

If it weren't for him, Li Yuan might have spent a lot of effort to make the four venerables mistakenly think they were dead.

Now he could hide it from them just by leaving a breath on the fake Li Yuan.

"Old man, how about you rush back to Lingzhou with me."

Li Yuan looked at the old man and said kindly, Zhao Gao's net has been collecting disguise masters, and this is a top disguise master. If he goes to the net, he may be surrendered.

"Okay, okay, I will obey the order of the young master." When the old man heard that Li Yuan was taking him away with him, the old man breathed a sigh of relief and said several good words in succession, showing an expression of celebration for the rest of his life.

He has been helping others disguise themselves for decades, and he has seen too many people kill people to silence them in order not to leak secrets.

He had some skills when he was young, but unfortunately in his later years, he was almost tricked by others, and his master's cultivation was abolished.

Hearing that Liangshan Village had a good reputation, he ran over.

Unexpectedly, Song Jiang, who was unparalleled in benevolence and righteousness, and was known as the timely rain, also had a big shot behind him. When he found out about such a huge secret, he thought his life would be over soon.

I didn’t expect the twists and turns, but it’s good to be able to survive.

It doesn't matter where you go.

The old man still doesn't know Li Yuan's true identity. After all, the Yu Dynasty is so big that it is difficult for ordinary people to know about things outside Lianzhou except for the top powers.

After seeing the old man nodding, Li Yuan looked at Song Jiang and Yang Zhidao again:

"Not long after, the news of my death will spread, and it will probably become the fuse of chaos in Lianzhou. Maybe Lu Junyi will also come to Lianzhou."

Song Jiang's expression was stunned. The dynasty competition was a major event in the Yu Dynasty. They had also heard about it, and naturally they knew that Lu Junyi, the genius who was now spread all over the world, was also one of their own.

But how did Lu Junyi come to Lianzhou?

Shouldn't Emperor Yao be vigorously cultivating him?

When Li Yuan saw Song Jiang stunned, he smiled mysteriously without explaining too much.

"It's up to you to decide what to do when the time comes. I believe in your abilities. If you encounter a life or death crisis, I will allow you to reveal your identity and save yourself!" Li Yuan's tone suddenly became solemn. This was a promise.

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Song Jiang and Yang Zhi felt a warm current in their hearts. They knew that His Highness did not want anything to happen to them.

The two of them looked at each other and understood the meaning. As if they loved their highness, they would go through fire and water for his great cause in this life!

The old man's expression was stunned. He seemed to have heard the words "Gu?" and "Your Highness?"

Can these two words be general?

And this young master just said to go to Lingzhou?

There is only one king in Lingzhou!

The old man's eyes suddenly opened wide.

"You guys work hard, and we will continue to send the Liangshan brothers over to reunite with you in the future."

Li Yuan smiled slightly, wrapped the old man in gentle true energy, and disappeared with him on the top of the mountain...

That night, Tianlei Pavilion had already decided to cooperate with the Huanzhou Alliance, and then went to persuade other major forces.

"What, you said King Chu is dead?"

After Tianlei Pavilion revealed this news when persuading other forces, all the forces in Lianzhou were shocked.

Spies were sent out one after another overnight to investigate the ruins of the attack. When the spies responded one by one that it was indeed the Venerable's battle, they were shocked and convinced.

When these forces learned the news, they could no longer hide the fact that King Chu was attacked and killed.

The news spread to the states like it had wings!

In Kyoto, which was the first to receive the news, in the splendid palace, all civil and military officials bowed their bodies and lowered their heads, not daring to take a breath. The atmosphere was extremely depressing.

Sitting on the dragon chair, Li Yao stared blankly at the news coming from the court.

Lao Wu is gone?

After an unknown amount of time, Li Yao's calm voice sounded in the court hall.

"Retreat!"

When the officials heard that Li Yao was so calm, their eyes showed a hint of astonishment and they all raised their heads.

"I asked you to retreat from the court, didn't you hear me?"

However, just when they raised their heads, they received an angry roar from Li Yao!

"Yes Yes Yes!"

It was the first time that all the civil and military officials saw Li Yaofu getting so angry, and they all retreated quickly but cautiously.

After a while, only Lin Shufan and Lu Xun were left in the entire court.

At this moment, Li Yao's chest, which was undulating due to anger, had calmed down, but his red eyes expressed his mood at the moment, and he said in a faint tone:

"Tell me, did I kill my fifth brother?"

Lin Shufan and Lu Xun both saw the pain in Li Yao's eyes.

"Your Majesty, is this information false? King Chu's talent is amazing and he has already broken through the Dharma Realm. How could he be attacked and killed by four... four... Dharma Realm peak... peak sages?" Lu Xun said. His voice became softer and quieter, and his tone became less and less confident.

Lin Shufan sighed: "Your Majesty, the matter has come to this, we can only avenge King Chu!"

"Huanzhou Alliance!" Li Yao's tone was so cold that people couldn't help but shudder.

"Xiang Lin, what should I do now?"

"The Huanzhou Alliance's intention to attack the King of Chu has become clear. They are likely to attack Lingzhou!"

"Then I will send the imperial army to attack the Huanzhou Alliance!"

"Your Majesty, you can't. The main force of the imperial army is already in Qingzhou. You can't divide your troops outside Zhongzhou." Lin Shufan shook his head.

"Then how can I avenge my fifth brother!"

Lu Xun raised his head and said with a sad face: "Your Majesty, the Huanzhou Alliance attacked and killed the King of Chu just to make Lingzhou leaderless and fall into chaos.

When the generals of the King of Chu, Yuwen Chengdu, Xun Yu and others, learned that it was the Huanzhou Alliance that attacked and killed the King of Chu, they would hate them to the core.

When the Huanzhou Alliance attacks, we can send people to appease them and lead them to resist the Huanzhou Alliance. Waiting for Qingzhou's victory, we can lead the army straight to Huanzhou and solve the Huanzhou Alliance with the Lingzhou army! "

Li Yao slowly closed his eyes, clenched the handle of the dragon chair with his fingers, took a deep breath, and said in a calm tone:

"What about Lianzhou? I don't believe that the four venerables didn't know the news about the attack on the fifth brother. The news about the fifth brother's murder came from Tianlei Pavilion. Now Lianzhou is also preparing to rebel?"

Seeing that Li Yao had calmed down, Lin Shufan pondered for a while and said slowly: "According to the news, Tianlei Pavilion has agreed to cooperate with the Huanzhou Alliance, and the news of King Chu's murder was revealed by them in order to seek cooperation from other forces. It is impossible for other forces to agree so quickly in a short period of time, we should still have time to recruit them."

"How to recruit?" Li Yao asked.

Lin Shufan and Lu Xun frowned and fell into deep thought.

On second thought, Lu Xun thoughtfully stroked his beard and said: "Now Lianzhou is in a critical period. If our court forcibly suppresses it, it will be counterproductive. Let us first send someone to Lianzhou to test the reaction of various forces in Lianzhou and let them know. The attitude of our court.”

"Yes." Lin Shufan nodded after hearing Lu Xun's suggestion: "Even if we cannot make all the forces in Lianzhou submit to the imperial court, we can still win over a group of forces close to the imperial court.

If Lianzhou is no longer monolithic, then we can first capture Lianzhou, and then defeat the Huanzhou Alliance with Lingzhou's remaining generals. "

"Well, that's a good suggestion." Li Yao nodded and then asked:

"Who do you think is appropriate to send to Lianzhou?"

Lin Shufan and Lu Xun thought of a suitable candidate and said at the same time:

"Lu Junyi!"

"Lu Junyi?" Li Yao was stunned.

"That's right, Your Majesty, Lu Junyi is from Lianzhou. According to Liu Jin's investigation, the person who killed Master Lu Junyi was probably Tianlei Pavilion." Lu Xun smiled faintly.

Lin Shufan stroked his beard and nodded, with a smile in his eyes: "Lu Junyi has always wanted revenge, hasn't he? Your Majesty will give him this opportunity and send him to Lianzhou to serve as the county governor. The position is not big or small, and it will not cause resistance from big forces. .

Firstly, it can test whether Lu Junyi is loyal to His Majesty, and secondly, it can also see how capable Lu Junyi is. "

Li Yao's eyes lit up.

………………………………

In Prince Heng's Mansion, Li Heng also received the news that Li Yuan was attacked and killed. He was extremely shocked when he looked at the letter in his hand.

"Commander Jiang, is this information accurate?"

Jiang Jingfeng, who was wearing the uniform of a secret guard commander, took a deep breath, suppressed the same shocked emotion, nodded and said:

"Your Highness, the whole Kyoto is now rumored to be crazy. All the forces in the Yu Dynasty are already aware of it, and there is no sound in Lingzhou. If it is fake, the King of Chu will appear now to show his innocence."

"What was Li Yao's reaction when he learned that King Chu was killed?"

Li Heng turned to look at Jiang Jingfeng and asked.

Jiang Jingfeng said: "After Emperor Yao got the news, he was furious and retreated from the court."

"Retreat directly from the court?"

"Yes, all the civil and military officials had left at that time, and only Prime Minister Lin and Shangshu Lu remained in the court."

When Li Heng heard this, his heart tightened. The letter in his hand was clumped into a ball. He looked in the direction of the palace, and a chill filled his heart.

"Li Yao, is this why you deliberately appointed Fifth Brother as the Governor of Huanzhou when he left the capital?"
