Raising the Demon

Chapter 369
"People from Xia Junguo also went to the Zifu?" In the palace, in King Zhuan's study, King Zhuan heard the report from the spy, and frowned slightly, "How did Bai Feng deal with it?"

After hearing that Zi Baifeng disappeared behind closed doors, King Zhuan was both happy and worried. He was happy because Zi Baifeng obviously didn't mean to join forces with Xia Junguo's people, but he was worried about whether Zi Baifeng could handle all this properly.

Now, countless people in Xijing are staring at Zi Baifeng and his King Zhuan, trying to figure out their attitudes.

Xia Junguo's special envoy came to Xijing again, even before the negotiations in Mengcheng ended, obviously with a plan. Of course, it is definitely not only Xia Junguo's envoy who is doing this kind of thing now, but also various spy agencies of Zhuanerguo. The activity has already started.

King Zhuan frowned and said nothing, a moment later, another spy came to report, Zi Baifeng accepted the gift, then drove the person away, and presented the gift list.

"Drive away?" King Zhuan was speechless, "Drive away directly?"

"Well, it seems that two people were killed. Xia Junguo's special envoy wanted to take the gift back, but Master Zi Hou personally snatched it away. Fortunately, that special envoy ran fast..." the spy said.

King Zhuan turned his head and looked to the side. General Yu and Fujun were two of his confidantes, and they all looked at each other in blank dismay.

Although it sounds cool, they represent the national system after all. Is it really okay to be so violent?

"And..." the spy hesitated.

"What else?"

"Before the special envoy fled, he shouted that if Master Zihou is willing to join Xia Junguo, the position of Prime Minister Xia Junguo will be vacant."

King Zhuan frowned again.

……

"Haha, it really looks like Bai Feng's style." Qi Hanshan clapped his hands and laughed.

In the inner city, in the Qi Mansion, Qi Hanshan was sitting and chatting with his father, Master Qi, with a few side dishes and a jar of good wine, and there were only father and son. This was the first time Qi Hanshan got along with his father like this after he became an adult.

Lord Qi asked about Qi Hanshan's various experiences in Mengcheng in detail, and nodded while listening. This son of his has always been stable and reassuring, but the growth in the recent period has really made people gratified.

Xia Junguo's special envoy has been making troubles in the whole of Xijing these days, sending gifts everywhere, which seems to be a pretense of making an apology, but in fact, it is desperately stabbing King Zhuan's heart. Many officials, in order to avoid suspicion, Some stayed behind closed doors, and some took a detour to avoid it, for fear of leaving a bad impression in King Zhuan's heart.

Now that there are a lot of vacancies for officials in Xijing, a bad impression may hinder one's promotion.

Even so, the whereabouts of Special Envoy Xia Junguo was still the subject of heated discussions.

I don't know how annoying these shit-stirring sticks are, but what Zi Baifeng did today really made people laugh and be shocked.

"Master Zihou is indeed young and intelligent." Master Qi nodded, "He has proved his heart to King Zhuan by doing so, and will not let King Zhuan doubt him..."

"Father, I think it's just the opposite." Qi Hanshan shook his head. In the past, he was extremely convinced of his father's judgment and almost never raised objections. Today, I don't know if it's because he drank alcohol or because he really changed a lot. Hearing Lord Qi's judgment, he shook his head and said, "I don't think Bai Feng has considered these things at all."

"Oh?" Master Qi was a little puzzled, "If he didn't consider these, why did he do it?"

"Haha, I just want to do it." Qi Hanshan shook his head slightly, "A small special envoy of Xia Junguo doesn't need him to waste energy at all. I don't think Bai Feng's thoughts are in Xijing at all."

He paused, and said: "This time I went to Mengcheng, I realized that Xijing is just a tiny place, the world is so big, even if it is Zhuaner Kingdom, what is it? Baifeng is positive In comparison, no matter Zhuan Erguo or Xia Junguo, who defeated a large number of Yinglongzong's troops, they can't use more power to deal with him than Yinglongzong's sub-zongzong. His Majesty Zhuan is suspicious, no Suspicion or jealousy, it's all his troubles, Bai Feng will never take it to heart."

Qi Hanshan's bold remarks made Lord Qi frowned subconsciously. He had been fighting for Zhuan Erguo all his life, and he couldn't help being unhappy when he heard Qi Hanshan's disdain for Zhuan Erguo in his words.

But thinking about it carefully, what Qi Hanshan said was indeed correct.

What can Zhuan Erguo give Zi Baifeng?
It's just a small, remote country.

But thinking about it again, although the last words of the special envoy when he left were extremely heartbreaking, they might not have caused any trouble to Zi Baifeng, but it was King Zhuan who troubled him.

The current Zi Baifeng is the "Great Wall" of the entire Zhuaner Kingdom, and King Zhuan can't destroy the Great Wall by himself.Xia Junguo wrote a bad check for Zi Baifeng to be prime minister, but King Zhuan couldn't write a bad check for Zi Baifeng, he had to give Zi Baifeng something real.

This move is not only to stabilize Zi Baifeng, but also to stabilize the thoughts of other ministers.

In terms of rewards for meritorious deeds, Zi Baifeng's contribution to saving the country cannot be offset by a small foreigner and a desert of death.

Qi Hanshan only said that they thought too much, but Zi Baifeng actually didn't care about it at all.

But for the older generation like King Zhuan and Master Qi, this is definitely not too much thinking.

"I'll go into the palace." Lord Qi couldn't sit still, straightened his clothes, and stood up.

"Father, if I were you, my attention would not stay on Baifeng's side now, but pay attention to Guanrizong's side." In contrast, Xia Junguo's visit to Zi Baifeng was more like a cover However, Qi Hanshan felt that Xia Junguo's visit to Guan Rizong deserved more attention.

Master Qi was stunned for a moment, shook his head, patted Qi Hanshan on the shoulder, turned around and left in a hurry.

……

Not long after Master Qi left, a middle-aged official hurried in and found that only Qi Hanshan was there, he was stunned for a moment, and said, "Hanshan, where's the big brother?"

"Uncle Lin." Qi Hanshan stood up and said, "My father has just rushed into the palace. What's the matter?"

This Uncle Lin is none other than Lin Zhengli, the current Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment.

"He is the candidate of our Ministry of Punishment to participate in the Mianxian Conference." Lin Zhengli said, "It needs to be reported as soon as possible."

Qi Hanshan knew about this, because the monks and the political power were not separated. In fact, people from Zhuaner Kingdom would be invited to participate in such grand events as the Immortal Meeting.Not only people from Zhuaner Kingdom will participate, but also delegations from the eight vassal states and the Celestial Kingdom will participate.

For any monk, such a grand event as the Immortal Fairy Conference is a grand event that he has to participate in, so the very few places are overwhelmed. All the major families and forces are trying their best to compete for the places.

"I don't think my father will come back in a while." Qi Hanshan said, "If there is my name in it, just cross it out."

"This..." Lin Zhengli was stunned, Qi Hanshan would give up such a good opportunity?

"I have other channels to participate." Qi Hanshan smiled.

For a grand event like the Immortal Fairy Conference, the number of people is strictly controlled. Those who can enter the venue are the admission quota, which is only 1 people, and the peripheral quota is only 10 people.

For sects like the Huang Hua Sect, Huang Zhuchen already had three admission spots. If it was in the past, it would be difficult for one, and there might only be a few peripheral spots.

But for many people, being able to go to Yinglongzong and watch this grand event from a distance is already a blessing in their lives. If a true immortal preaches, even if they are not at the venue, they can still listen to the preaching, which is also very beneficial to themselves. Great benefits, even a peripheral spot is extremely precious.

The invitation that Zhuan Erguo received was able to bring 30 people into the arena, which was already regarded as various preferential treatment for one of the vassal states. In addition to the 30 people, there were also 300 entourages. Regardless of the venue, the quota that Lin Zhengli mentioned was actually this kind of peripheral quota.

How can Qi Hanshan value such a peripheral quota?
There are ten quotas for the invitations of the Bird and Mouse Temple, and there are not so many people in the Bird and Mouse Temple. Zi Baifeng plans to bring his family and children to meet the world, and for the remaining places, he can bring a few cronies , Qi Hanshan is confident that he can squeeze one.

As for the peripheral quota, there are a full one hundred. Qi Hanshan estimated that Zi Baifeng would be worried about who to take, and he was afraid that he might not be able to get the number of people.

……

Zhongshan, the inner hall of the living room, Guan Guri saw his father, Guan Cuiyang.

"Old day, you heard it too, what do you think?" Guan Cuiyang asked.

"Father, what do you think?" Guan Guri asked.

"I think Xia Junguo's proposal is still constructive." Guan Cuiyang said, "The way they proposed exchanging quotas for quotas is very operable."

People from Xia Junguo came to visit, and they were naturally aimed at people from the West Emperor Sect.

It is true that the meeting of immortals is a grand event that is rarely seen in thousands of years, but for many people, even if they are going to meet immortals, even if they are listening to the sermons of real immortals, it is probably a waste, because the level and comprehension cannot be reached. It's true immortals who talk about the hype, but it's just playing the piano to the cow.

So Xia Junguo's people proposed to exchange places with Xihuangzong.

They gave up part of the quota for participating in the Immortal Fairy Conference in exchange for recommending disciples to join the Western Emperor Sect and become inner disciples.

"The monarch of Xia Junguo is very wise." Guan Guri nodded and said, "I also think it is very practical."

"Then you should report it to Elder Mingyi." Guan Cuiyang said.

"Such small matters, I can decide by myself." Guan Guri nodded, there were only a few dozen inner disciples at most, and there was no need to alarm Elder Mingyi.

Of course, Xia Junguo's envoy also proposed to invite people from the Western Emperor Sect to visit Xia Junguo, but they were naturally rejected.

Xia Junguo's people didn't even know what Elder Ming Yi wanted.

Xia Junguo couldn't give Elder Ming Yi what he wanted.

Guan Cuiyang naturally didn't want them to leave either. As the saying goes, sons are more important than fathers. The reason why he can win so much respect now is actually because he is Guan Guri's father.

If he is only the suzerain of Sun Guanzong, I am afraid that he will not be regarded by too many people.

"The other day, I also heard about the Zifu. If you want to live down the mountain, I also have a courtyard in the inner city." Guan Cuiyang said.

"A group of outside disciples who don't know what is good or bad are just speculating on their own." Guan Guri sneered, how could he be such a superficial person.

　Dear children, Happy Chinese New Year!
