Sheng Fu

Chapter 868 A Little Sincerity in the Night
Human race, imperial capital.

Inside the Renhuang Dojo, Li Hongshan stood outside the dojo and reported the general situation.

Li Hongshan had no dissatisfaction with Yuwen Jun, and even had some admiration for him. He was just worried about some of Yuwen Jun's behavior and ideas.

Lianheng Mountain has not yet been breached. At this critical juncture, the demon princess Guangli came to visit, and Yuwen Jun returned to the demon domain with the demon princess.

As the national teacher, Li Hongshan didn't even have the right to know this, so he was naturally a little angry.

Having such a relationship with the Princess of the Demon Realm made Yu Wenjun think more. If it was someone else from the Demon Realm, Li Hongshan would not take it to heart, but the Princess of the Demon Realm was an important person after all. Even if she planned to have dealings with foreign races, the first place she should come to should be the human temple.

Having dealings with Yuwen Jun seemed a little unclear.

The Emperor was also slightly surprised when he heard this, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised as he said, "It takes a long time for Yu Wenjun to get good things done. It seems that he has a special relationship with Guangli."

Li Hongshan bowed his head and asked, "Should we conduct a detailed investigation into this matter?"

The Emperor of Humanity said with a joking smile, "No need to go through so much trouble. From the evidence, it seems that they have already had a relationship with each other. If they deliberately didn't want you to know, you would naturally have no way of finding out. This time they put it out in the open, which obviously shows that they trust you, or in other words, they have great trust in Yu Wenjun's ability."

Li Hongshan said: "But in this case, Yuwen Jun can do whatever he wants, which is undoubtedly a shame for our human officials. Moreover, Yuwen Jun is becoming more and more unscrupulous now."

His Majesty the Human Emperor naturally also knew what Gu Yu had done in Haomiao City.

When common people saw officials, they only had to bow slightly, and the officials had to return the greeting. Just based on this point, Gu Yu had become a thorn in the eyes of many human officials.

The distinction between the superior and the inferior suddenly became extremely blurred, which was something that many officials could not accept and it offended them at the root.

But this new policy has already been implemented in Haomiao City.

Fortunately, there is a stretch of the North Sea between Haomiao City and the human territory, otherwise, if this trend were to blow into the human territory, who knows how much trouble it would cause.

His Majesty the Human Emperor didn't care, and even agreed with Gu Yu's approach in his heart.

But we can't agree with it openly.

Countless officials have become accustomed to the people looking up to them and being in awe of them. If they suddenly want to be equal to the people, they need some things as a prelude, or some bloody examples.

The Emperor asked, "What does Lord Yuwen think of the battle at Lianheng Mountain?"

Li Hongshan said: "He is not in a hurry to start a war, and once the war starts, all the dirty work will be done by Yue Bo, and Yu Wenjun is the leader in public, so he can restrain Yue Bo to a certain extent."

"Marshal Yue Bo has no objection to this, but in this way, the credit accumulated on Yu Wenjun will be too great. Let's not talk about other civil and political merits. However, the accumulation of great military merits is too great, and some accidents are inevitable."

Even many generals under Yue Bo were impressed by Yu Wenjun.

If this continues, Yuwen Jun will become a powerful figure through and through.

Even at that time, we don't have to consider the face and emotions of the Imperial Master.

The Emperor just found it interesting when he heard it. He looked at Li Hongshan and said casually, "Master Imperial Master is dedicated to his work, but the current situation requires someone to take the lead, and that person is Yu Wenjun."

"He is the only one who can stabilize the situation."

"As for the relationship between him and the demon princess, just turn a blind eye."

Li Hongshan was stunned on the spot. He didn't expect that His Majesty would give Yu Wenjun such broad authority.

"The troubles are still to come. In the long run, Yuwen Jun is an excellent pathfinder." said the Human Emperor.

Li Hongshan seemed to be thinking about something, nodded slightly, and bowed to say goodbye. …

In the Demon Realm, the royal capital, in a tavern.

There was a table full of barbecue and ten bottles of Flame Wine. Guangli sat at the top seat. Yuwen Jun sat opposite Guangli. He leisurely poured a glass of wine for Guangli and then filled his own glass.

"Actually, I don't like drinking, or I don't understand wine, but I understand people, so I can accompany you to drink until dawn." Yu Wenjun said slowly.

Guangli gazed at Yuwen Jun with interest. In her impression, Yuwen Jun did not seem to have suffered any losses since the advent of the era of great strife, and overall, the results of the war were still gratifying.

"So you understand me, what kind of person am I?" Guangli smiled lightly and asked deliberately.

Yu Wenjun picked up the wine glass and shook it slightly. The flaming wine was still very strong in the throat, so he had to drink it slowly. If he drank too much, he would easily fall asleep. He replied, "You are a beautiful woman who is concerned about the country and the people, but helpless."

Guangli smiled contemptuously and said, "This is just nonsense."

"But I'm not angry, because I know very well that if my business doesn't succeed, I will never have the chance to sit down and drink with you again."

"You are the most interesting person I know."

Yu Wenjun retorted: "The Demon Realm is vast. Could it be that Your Highness the Princess has no close friends? A close friend doesn't have to be a man, it can also be a woman."

Guangli held her chin with one hand, her eyes intoxicated and charming, and said with a touch of sadness: "Women don't understand the lofty sentiments in my heart, and men only think that I am a woman."

"You are the only one who pleases my eyes and makes me happy. I wonder if you and I can become good friends in the future. Your dragon princess shouldn't be jealous."

If Guangli had not cultivated the Netherworld True Essence, Jing Peiyao would naturally not care about the friendship between Yuwen Jun and Guangli. But now that Guangli has cultivated the Netherworld True Essence, it would be a lie for Jing Peiyao to say that she doesn't care.

Yu Wenjun curled his lips and smiled, "If you and I meet in private, she won't know."

Guangli blurted out: "You and I are not having an affair."

Yu Wenjun paused, then he remembered that the customs of the people in the demon realm were still very unrestrained. Where the fire of civilization was not burning, people would not take worldly views and rules to heart.

Yu Wenjun took a sip of the flaming wine and replied softly: "But as time goes by, you and I will inevitably become confidantes."

Guangli denied it outright, "It's just that our relationship is better than that of ordinary friends. Moreover, being your confidante is something that makes me feel ashamed. In my heart, I care about the beautiful mountains and rivers and the future of the demon realm."

"In my lifetime, I may not become a figure who surpasses Empress Fuyao, but I will become a queen of unrivaled elegance and grace."

As he spoke, Guangli picked up the wine glass and drank it all.

Yu Wenjun praised her, "It seems that you have great love in your heart, not just small love. This is the kind of woman I admire the most."

"As long as you watch from afar, you will feel satisfied. But once you get such a woman, you will feel that it is less fun."

Guangli was thoughtful after hearing this. She stared at Yu Wenjun's cynical look and asked honestly, "So you are also a man who loves new things and hates old ones. Even if you get the heir of the empress, you will still think about other women in your heart."

Yuwen Jun responded, "It's just that I have a lot on my mind."

Guangli smiled and said calmly, "You and I are indeed kindred spirits."

Yu Wenjun began to pour wine again. The night was still very long, and he didn't know whether these ten bottles of flaming wine would be enough to entertain him tonight.

But for this person who may become the future queen, Yu Wenjun is still willing to show some sincerity and accompany her for one night.
