After rebirth, I became a treacherous minister Black Moonlight

Chapter 692 Emperor Star Fate
Ji Li looked at Duan Mingyue and said, "It was indeed the trick in Weiyang Tower! So, you and the Loulan people are in the same group! What benefits did the Loulan people give you that you want to plot against us like this?"

He was talking about us, not the Governor's Office.

Chen Long looked at him in surprise. For the first time, he felt that the noisy chicken was not so unbearable.

Duan Wenliang stepped forward and stood in front of his eldest brother, his eyes wide open as he said, "Don't spit blood on me! Who is in league with the Loulan people? We don't even know the Loulan people, okay?"

Ji Li snorted, "You don't know him? Then tell me, why did your Weiyang Tower become a place for wizards to set up formations?"

Duan Wenliang looked aggrieved: "How should I know? We just bought it!"

Ji Li was furious: "Yeah! There are so many restaurants out there, but you chose to buy one that was set up by the Loulan people! And you still say you don't have ulterior motives!"

Duan Wenliang was even more furious than him: "Isn't that just for fun? Speaking of which, Weiyang Tower was chosen by Emperor Liang himself! We bought it after he decided on it!"

Ji Li pointed at his nose with a folding fan: "You missed a step! After he decided, you bought it and set up the formation for the Loulan people!"

Duan Wenliang opened his folding fan and said, "You are making things up!"

Ji Li: "You are guilty of your crime!"

Duan Wenliang: "You you you——"

"Wenliang, come back."

Duan Mingyue spoke.

It was rare for him to be so serious, and the usual smile on his face disappeared.

"I was negligent in this matter."

Duan Wenliang said, "Fourth brother! It's clearly the Loulan people who are cunning. Why are you taking the blame on yourself?"

Duan Mingyue said seriously, "After I heard that Emperor Liang chose Weiyang Tower as the duel site, I immediately bought the building. I thought I was quick enough, but I never thought that the Loulan people would set up a formation here before me. I have an unshirkable responsibility, and I will not stand idly by."

Chen Long looked at Meng Qianqian and Lu Yuan: "Do you believe him?"

Meng Qianqian nodded: "I believe in the Fourth Master, and I also believe in Xun Yi."

This sounds redundant, after all, the fourth master of the market town is Xun Yi from the Prime Minister's Mansion.

In fact, there is a difference between the two.

As a businessman, the Governor's Office can offer higher chips, and there is no reason for the Fourth Master to lose the big picture for the small one.

As the adopted son of the Prime Minister who suffered greatly, Xun Yi would never collude with the Loulan people who had been in cahoots with Prime Minister Xun.

Therefore, she never doubted Duan Mingyue's position from the beginning.

She just got to know Aimulan a little better.

This woman's methods are more complicated and cruel than imagined.

"There may be more than just Loulan behind Ayimulan."

Duan Mingyue reminded, "I suspect that the other major princes were also secretly involved."

"Not necessarily."

Lu Yuan said.

"Oh? Third brother has a different opinion?"

Duan Mingyue asked with interest.

Lu Yuan said calmly, "The other nine princes are not united with Loulan. Even if they go out, they will just watch the fun. They will not really lead the troops and waste their strength. Aimulan's main strength still comes from Wusun and Loulan."

"Wusun."

Meng Qianqian murmured, "Yes, she is the daughter of the King of Wusun. Loulan still has half of the King of Loulan's confidants, and Wusun is her backer."

Lu Yuan agreed and said, "At least for now."

Duan Wenliang was puzzled: "What do you mean by right now?"

"Wusun also has a civil war and factions. Right now they have a common enemy. After taking Loulan, it is still unknown where the Wusun throne will go."

Lu Yuan was patient for once, not for Duan Wenliang to hear, but to make Meng Qianqian not worry too much. After all, she was pregnant, and he didn't like her and the little one to be worried.

Well...she probably wouldn't.

Lu Yuan imagined the little guy shivering in someone's belly and decided not to scare him.

He collected his thoughts and said calmly, "Two questions: the method of cracking it and the deadline for cracking it."

Duan Mingyue pondered and said, "I don't know how to crack it, but as for the deadline, I can roughly estimate three to five days."

Ji Li frowned: "Only three or five days left?"

Duan Mingyue looked at Meng Qianqian and said, "This is all thanks to the Yinhu Guards who shot the Loulan wizard with an arrow. Otherwise, His Majesty Liang might not survive tonight."

Ji Li sighed: "What kind of formation is so weird? I have never heard of it before!"

Duan Wenliang suddenly had an idea and said, "Ah! I know! If we kill that Loulan wizard, we can break the formation!"

Ji Li had argued fiercely with him before, but now he couldn't help but nodded: "Yes, that's how it should be."

As the rumor goes, witchcraft and sorcery are inseparable. When a person is poisoned by a poison, in addition to removing the poison, killing the sorcerer is also a good way.

Duan Mingyue reminded: "The Loulan wizard is not so easy to kill. Have you forgotten Tan'er?"

Duan Wenliang seemed to want to say something but stopped.

Seeing Meng Qianqian was silent and thoughtful, Lu Yuan couldn't help but ask, "What are you thinking about?"

Meng Qianqian thought for a moment and said, "I seem to remember a little bit of the content of the military book. Since it is a formation, there must be a core. If we can break the core, maybe my grandfather will have a chance to survive."

Duan Mingyue said: "It is not easy to set up such a large formation. It is impossible to set it up a second time in the short term. Moreover, after you are alert, it will be even more difficult for him to succeed. Therefore, the method of Yinhu Guard is feasible, and it is the only feasible one at present."

Killing the Loulan wizard is a fantasy.

We have about 30 to 40 percent chance of breaking through the formation.

Meng Qianqian frowned and said, "Now the question is, where is the center of the formation?"

As soon as she finished speaking, everyone looked at Ji Li.

He is proficient in the art of Bagua and may be able to calculate the center of the formation.

"That's weird."

Ji Li spoke with a puzzled look on his face.

"What's weird?"

Chen Long asked.

Ji Li frowned: "Think about it, Loulan is a vassal state of the Great Zhou, not of the Liang State. If she wants to kill someone, she would kill the emperor of the Great Zhou, why would she kill the Emperor of Liang?"

Duan Wenliang analyzed: "Maybe it's because she wants to deal with you, and Emperor Liang is your backer..."

Duan Mingyue shook her head: "No, it is related to the prophecy. The King of the Western Regions needs the blood of an emperor for sacrifice. The blood of the young emperor... is not strong enough."

In a flash, a bold guess flashed through his mind.

But soon, he shook his head again.

Lu Yuan said calmly: "Just say whatever you want to say. Who are you doing this for?"

"You."

Duan Mingyue smiled helplessly, "I just suddenly thought of King Miao. If I were Ayi Mulan, King Miao would be my first choice compared to Emperor Liang."

Lu Yuan frowned: "Old man?"

Duan Mingyue glanced at Ji Li and said, "The Miao King also has an emperor star destiny. He often travels outside. There is a traitor in Miaojiang. He may be Ai Mulan's target. However, he suddenly parted ways with you, and Emperor Liang came to the capital instead."

Duan Wenliang opened his eyes wide: "Did Emperor Liang protect King Miao from disaster?"

Duan Mingyue said: "The cause and effect in this world are all destiny."

Ji Li's expression changed, and he took out the compass from his waist: "The compass moved, and I found the center of the formation!"
