Dynasty Summons: Low-key Hegemony

Chapter 148 Design
The great battle was over, and the inside and outside of Chiying City were heavily guarded, and the soldiers from Chu Qingyan's side had already evacuated from Chiying City.

On the evening of the second day, in the courtyard, the maid set up a table of delicious food and wine, and Li Yuan invited Chu Qingyan and Chu Junyan.

"We have worked together for a long time, but this is the first time we sit and drink together."

Li Yuan smiled slightly and said politely.

"Why, does His Royal Highness King Chu want to keep us?"

On the opposite side was Chu Qingyan's beautiful and pure face, with a slight smile on her lips, without any discouragement of failure.

On the other side, Chu Junyan, who was valiant and heroic, looked at Li Yuan calmly, and the moonlight shone on his clear pupils like stars.

They failed, but they have the background to do it all over again.

The Zhen Guo Mansion is their shackles and a layer of halo.

Li Yuan looked at Chu Qingyan with curious eyes and asked:

"Actually, this king is very curious, Wangfei, why is your talent so high, and when did you break through the Dharma Venerable Realm?"

"Are you curious why Emperor Yu didn't discover my hidden cultivation in the capital?"

Chu Qingyan looked at Li Yuan with a smile, and directly pierced Li Yuan's inner thoughts. She wanted to see what news Li Yuan wanted to reveal from their mouths this time.

"Actually, this lady has already broken through to the Heavenly Martial Realm in the capital. Emperor Yu should know about it too, but how could he care about little people like us."

Chu Qingyan played with the jade cup in front of her with immature fingers, disapprovingly and continued to say with a cold face:

"We are each other's talisman, and we will not hurt each other at the last moment if the world is not settled."

Li Yuan raised his eyebrows, showing no surprise.

indeed!

The enemy of the enemy is the friend.

If the Zhen Guofu wants to dominate the world, it is best to have a legitimate name, and his status as a prince is very good.

And it's impossible for him to solve Chu Qingyan and Chu Junyan now, otherwise, if Chu Junxiong goes crazy and deals with him alone, it will be quite troublesome.

"By the way, you General Chu has no heirs, so why are you rebelling against the royal family!"

Li Yuan closely watched the expressions of the two from the corner of his eye, and asked him what he was most curious about.

Both are daughters, and they will marry sooner or later. Even if they give birth to a grandson, they will work for the other for nothing.

When Li Yuan said these words, Chu Qingyan and Chu Junyan's expressions turned cold, and their eyes showed intense murderous intent!
"Hehe, there are only two daughters in such a big town, do you believe it?

Only we survived! "

Li Yuan frowned even deeper. It stands to reason that Emperor Yu could not be so stupid. Obviously, he was forcing the Zhen Guofu to rebel. Wouldn't this chill the hearts of the generals under his command?

Chu Qingyan said with a cold face:

"Of course your royal family wouldn't do this, but the Yu Dynasty is so big, there are always some forces who want to turn against the Zhen Guofu and the royal family.

Your imperial palace is full of powerful people, so they naturally turn their direction towards the Zhen Guo Mansion!

And your royal family has always used the Zhen Guo Mansion as a shield in front of you! "

"So, you entered Kyoto on the spot to protect your safety. Shouldn't you be looking for "them" and then deal with "them"?"

"Hehe, aren't we dealing with it?" Chu Qingyan's cold tone revealed a gloomy look.

One of the resistance forces emerging now is one, and they have participated in more or less.

Now I want them to fight to the death with the royal family first, what a beautiful idea!
Her inner thoughts are extremely firm, and only by becoming the strongest force can she truly control her own destiny!

Li Yuan's face was full of sincerity, and he looked at Chu Qingyan expectantly and said:

"Then why don't we cooperate, solve them together, avenge your Zhen Guofu, and you will be the queen of this king in the future, wouldn't everyone be happy!"

Chu Qingyan sneered endlessly, "Li Yuan, do you think we are stupid, and want to block our Zhenguo Mansion from the front, this Dayu Dynasty is the world of your Li family, what does their resistance have to do with our Zhen Guofu!"

Li Yuan narrowed his eyes, and the guesses in his mind gradually took shape.

The real purpose of Chu Qingyan and Chu Junyan coming to Lingzhou was to set off the fuse of the troubled times. After completing the mission, they went back to the Zhenguo Mansion to hide in Zhaozhou, watching the royal family fight against these forces, and reaping the benefits of the fisherman.

Lingzhou and the others don't want to win at all. Lingzhou is too far away from Zhaozhou, one is in the west and the other is in the east.

If he was defeated, Li Yao, as the new emperor, would definitely seize this opportunity to attack Lingzhou, and King Ming was in Yizhou. If they were still in Lingzhou, they would become Chu Junxiong's weakness.

Li Yuan's mind flashed, so now is the most dangerous time for them!
Seeing Li Yuan's complexion changed slightly, Chu Qingyan naturally raised her wine glass to toast Li Yuan, smiling happily:
"His Royal Highness, you will protect us, won't you!"

"The news came out yesterday, at most tomorrow, they will arrive, His Royal Highness King Chu will have to worry more."

Chu Junyan also raised his glass and smiled at Li Yuan.

As if they were not the ones being assassinated.

Li Yuantong raised his wine glass, nodded heavily, and said solemnly:

"You two, this king has been taught!"

After Li Yuan drank a glass of wine, he left with a heavy heart.

Xing Daorong, who was guarding outside the gate of the courtyard, saw Li Yuan coming out, and turned his head to see Chu Junyan and Chu Qingyan sitting at the stone table safe and sound, eating. After Li Yuan went away, he raised his head in disdain:
"Humph!"

The courtyard door was closed, and Chu Qingyan smiled helplessly when she heard Xing Daorong's disdainful voice outside the door.

Xing Daorong was loyal to her, but he was too naive. Li Yuan was a Dharma Venerable, how could he hear his voice.

Fortunately, Li Yuan didn't have the same knowledge as him.

Chu Junyan's eyes moved, and a breath of Dharma Venerable instantly enveloped the entire courtyard, isolating the surroundings.

Just before leaving, Li Yuan opened the meridians of the two of them.

"Xing Daorong is good, sister, you have picked up a good general."

Chu Junyan praised Xing Daorong.

"Compared to Xing Daorong, I am more concerned about how these generals under Li Yuan's command were obtained."

Chu Qingyan's face gradually became serious:
"Zhong Limei, Xun Yu, and Jia Xu, we have been investigating for a long time but can't find any clues, and the two generals Ma Chao and Xu Chu who just appeared not long ago, where did they come from, as if they suddenly appeared in Li Yuan Same as around."

Chu Junyan thought of Lei Yun's death at the hands of Zhong Limei, and the destruction of the Yinhui Yueqi, showing a look of pity. He did not expect Zhonglimei to be able to solve the Yinhui Yueqi.

"Could they be the means left by Emperor Yu to Li Yuan? Emperor Yu sent reinforcements to King Ming, King Xuan, and King Yu, and may secretly help Li Yuan."

Chu Qingyan slowly shook her head, helplessly said:
"I hope it is the general that Emperor Yu left for Li Yuan, otherwise there is a mysterious force behind Li Yuan, which is another big change."

However, Chu Qingyan's gaze changed again, she thought of Yuwen Chengdu...

…………

Soon Li Yuan returned to the mansion, Jia Xu and Xun Yu were waiting for him.

"Now the king has confirmed that they deliberately wanted to leave Lingzhou, so they accelerated the progress of the war."

Jia Xu nodded, showing a clear look. When he sorted out the battle, he found that the reason why the war ended so quickly was when Chu Junyan solved the Ximen Patriarch.

"They want to leave Lingzhou, but also want to preserve their vitality. By the way, they will take away the elites of Zhongyitang and Wang Family. Losing to us is their best option."

Li Yuan nodded. When the peak Dharma Venerable appeared behind him, Li Yuan was already suspicious. No one could stop that old Huo from suddenly attacking Li Mu, Yu Wencheng and himself.

Why did you send him to capture Xun Yu? Isn't it an overkill.

But do they just want to leave Lingzhou quickly? There should be other reasons.

Li Yuan, Jia Xu, and Xun Yu fell into deep thought.

Soon, Jia Xu's eyes flashed suddenly, and he blurted out:
"The town government wants to make the battle between those big forces and the three kings more intense."

Xun Yu's body shook, and he suddenly came to his senses, analyzing:

"Your Highness is one of the four kings of the Dayu Dynasty. If we defeat Chu Qingyan and Chu Junyan and control the entire Lingzhou, then those rebel forces will feel a sense of tension, and King Xuan, King Ming, and King Yu know that His Highness is the first Winning Lingzhou will also create a sense of urgency in the heart, so that no matter which side is in a hurry first, the battle between the states will be more intense, and the details will be revealed."

Jia Xu narrowed her eyes slightly, lightly shook her feather fan and said:

"Everyone knows that His Highness is the weakest of the four kings, but Chu Junyan, who is the two eldest ladies of the Zhen Guo Mansion and the number one arrogance of the Yu Dynasty, was defeated by His Highness.

Those powerful forces in the Dayu Dynasty who originally underestimated His Highness will re-examine His Highness's strength and value the strength of the royal family. As losers, they will inevitably cause some people to despise them. In this way, the Zhen Guofu can continue to lie dormant. "

"If they return to Zhen Guo Mansion and deliberately lose a few more games..."

There was a trace of fear in Xun Yu's eyes.

Li Yuan waved his hand slightly and said, "No matter what they think, the king of Lingzhou is determined!"

"Now how do we deal with the assassins sent by the big forces to kill Chu Qingyan and Chu Junyan?"

"Whether to lure them into a trap, or scare them away!"

Li Yuan wanted to be like the Three Kings, setting a trap to catch all these assassins.

But now Li Yuan's most important thing is to control Lingzhou, and he doesn't want to cause trouble. If one of his own people is injured or dies, wouldn't it delay the time to control Lingzhou.

Jia Xu and Xun Yu looked at each other and said at the same time:
"Your Highness, just get rid of them."

"We just need to let Huo Lao and Zhong Cui from Chu Qingyan's side come and guard the Chiying City Gate with Li Mu and Liu Qingquan so that they can understand that we already know that someone is coming to kill them."

"Can!"

Li Yuan nodded, he didn't need to think about whether Mr. Huo and Zhong Cui would follow his ideas.

The assassin assassinated their young lady, if they were not on guard, who would help them be on guard.

…………

Just as Li Yuan and the others thought, after a day, the Lingzhou battle had twists and turns, and finally after the news that Li Yuan defeated Chu Junyan came out, the Dayu Dynasty was shaken again.

In the Yizhou Mingwang Mansion closest to Li Yuan, in the lobby, Mingwang leaned on the big chair, his sitting posture was domineering.

Below it, Su Qingxian's face became paler and paler, and his cough became more and more serious.

A group of civil servants sat quietly one by one, with deep doubts in their eyes.

The king of Chu can actually defeat Chu Junyan?

And so fast?
"Lingzhou is going to be captured by the fifth brother, what do you think?"

King Ming scanned the generals with a pair of terrifying tiger eyes, revealing the slightest bit of dissatisfaction.

The people below lowered their heads and remained silent. They knew that His Highness was becoming more and more impatient now. Since His Majesty passed away, His Highness has defeated these combined forces and aristocratic families, and His Highness's behavior has become more and more domineering.

The literati in front looked at Su Qingxian who had been coughing.

Here he is the only one who can persuade King Ming.

Now they are fighting on two fronts, dealing with the alliance of the Fengzhou forces and the alliance of the Huanzhou forces respectively. Another big strategist and several generals are in another place.

Su Qingxian cupped his hands and said with a smile:

"Ahem, Your Highness, this is also an opportunity for us to attack the Fengzhou Alliance and the Huanzhou Alliance."

"Oh, why?"

When King Ming saw Su Qingxian speak, his ferocious breath subsided, and his tone was not as severe as before.

"The Fengzhou Alliance and the Huanzhou Alliance are definitely not willing to let Lingzhou be unified by the King of Chu, and they don't want to have another opponent.

And the King of Chu is now capturing Chu Qingyan and Chu Junyan alive, and will release them when the army of the Zhen Guofu leaves Lingzhou.

So these few days are their last chance and their best chance. "

"Best chance?"

King Ming rubbed his chin with his thick fingers, his eyes narrowed slightly.

"You mean, they will send people to the Old Five Base Camp to assassinate Chu Qingyan and Chu Junyan?"

"That's right, Your Highness, if Chu Junyan and Chu Qingyan die in the army of the King of Chu, then the generals under their command in Lingzhou will definitely go crazy, and they will definitely fight against the King of Chu to lose both sides.

And Chu Junxiong, who has not moved in Zhaozhou, is likely to be furious and formally step into the rebel alliance. "

"Chu Junxiong!"

When King Ming heard Chu Junxiong's name, his eyes showed fierce fighting intent.

He really wanted to meet this general of the town!
It's a pity that Zhaozhou's position is destined to be King Xuan's opponent.

"Jiang Heng, go and inform the king of Chu, let him pay attention in the past two days, and don't let both Chu Qingyan and Chu Junyan die!"

"It's best to let one of them die!"

King Ming showed his murderous intent, if only Chu Qingyan and Chu Junyan died.

Anyway, it's not the royal family's move. Let's see what Chu Junxiong will do.

Su Qingxian showed a helpless smile and said:

"Your Highness, the King of Chu probably doesn't need us to remind him, they can definitely see it."

Su Qingxian watched the details of the battle in Lingzhou for a day, and he was very interested in Jia Xu, the counselor under King Chu's command.

"And it is impossible for the King of Chu to intentionally let Chu Qingyan or Chu Junyan die. After all, the one who survives will definitely hate the King of Chu to death."

"So what is your chance of attacking the alliance? Even if they send a few venerables to assassinate, their base camp will be heavily guarded against our attack."

Everyone's eyes were also on Su Qingxian, these powerful forces would definitely not be so stupid.

Su Qingxian showed a smile: "Let's intercept and kill these assassins."

"These alliances want to assassinate Chu Qingyan and Chu Junyan, and they must move quickly and quickly. They must send some venerables there."

"Besides, Weichen guesses that the king of Chu will not be able to fight. He just wants to drive away these assassins. We can contact the king of Chu and ask him to send his venerable to follow these people secretly!"
