Chapter 124 The Actions of King Nanjing
Zuixiang lives on the eighth floor.

Qin Yuan and Zhao Zhen got to know each other for a while, and sat at the table with Gongsun Chi, Yuan Zi, and Zhao Shangqian, talking with each other.

The content of the conversation is undoubtedly the situation in the world.

Originally, Qin Yuan would have thought that they would be the Heavenly Dao Army, but he did not expect to be the first to talk about King Nanjing.

"The attitude of King Nanjing is still unclear, we can only wait passively now."

Gongsun Chi said.

Through some recent intelligence information, he secretly collected information about the King of Southern Jing and the Heavenly Dao Army, and knew that they had maintained a certain relationship.

This was a headache for everyone. King Nanjing, as the biggest force in the court camp, was secretly colluding with the Heavenly Dao Army. Once the news leaked out, the court camp would be destroyed.

"Unclear attitude? The entire south is about to be turned upside down." Yuan Zi's complexion changed, and he gritted his teeth.

"Really? I heard some rumors. I heard that there was an accident in Jingzhou City. Several major families in Nanyang took action at the same time, but they failed to suppress the action of King Nanjing."

Gongsun Chi suddenly said with a solemn expression, looking at Yuan Zi.

"That's right, two days ago, spies from a noble family discovered movement in Jingzhou City and sent people to investigate the situation. It turned out that there were a large number of soldiers wearing excellent armor in the city, and they were fighting with various forces in the city."

"The next day, all the families that 'conspired against rebellion' in Jingzhou City were all annihilated. More than 5 families were exterminated. No less than [-] children and servants of each family died, and no less than [-] private soldiers died. The whereabouts of the envoys to Jingzhou City are all unknown. If there is no wrong guess, it must be the King of Nanjing who started to eliminate the power of the family in Jingzhou City. Nowadays, coups and military changes have taken place in many cities in Jingzhou, Nanjiang, and many families have suffered. Nanyang The aristocratic family headed by the Zhuge family in the city blocked the city and closed it to themselves. Moreover, a war of innateness broke out, as many as four innate masters fought, and the result ended in a tie. Nanyang City was also surrounded by an army of [-] and could not communicate with the outside world. get in touch."

Yuan Zi clenched his fist and smashed it on the tea table.

"rebellion?"

Qin Yuan murmured that this was a conflict between the aristocratic family in Nanjiang Jingzhou and the King of Nanjing. The two sides had been grudges for a long time, and this time it was an endless conflict.

"It's just an excuse for King Nanjing to eliminate his political enemies. Now most of Jingzhou in Nanjiang is in the hands of King Nanjing."

Yuan Zi said coldly.

Although Nanjiang Jingzhou is under the jurisdiction of King Nanjing, not everyone obeys King Nanjing, and there are many factions among them.

The Nanjing King faction, the court faction, the aristocratic family faction, and the local family faction, the forces are intricate.

The King of Southern Jing faction is considered to be the most powerful faction. Although the other three factions belong to different factions, they have the same interests and goals. This is to restrict the development of the King of Southern Jing so that one family does not dominate.

However, King Nanjing's actions were beyond everyone's expectations. No one guessed that King Nanjing would actually do something at this time.

After all, King Nanjing himself was in Yidu County, and he had also transferred 50 troops. While confronting the Heavenly Dao Army, he was hiding a very strong force.

The incident happened suddenly, and none of the parties had any preparations. The King of Nanjing wiped out the enemies of Nanjiang Jingzhou extremely quickly.

As a result, except for a few major families in Nanyang City who relied on their hidden innate masters and impressive military strength to hold on to Nanyang City, all other counties and cities fell into the hands of King Nanjing.

Although Nanjiang Jingzhou was in turmoil after a wave of cleansing, after the hostile voices were quelled, the power of King Nanjing would become more stable and stronger.

This result was something that no one had expected.

Unexpectedly, King Nanjing would suddenly launch a war to eliminate civil strife at this time, and achieved good results.

Unexpectedly, after King Nanjing personally led an army of 50, he would still have such a powerful army. According to intelligence from all parties, the number of people under King Nanjing who were absolutely loyal to him was definitely not less than 100 million.

Unexpectedly, King Nanjing's men, and two innate masters, had a fierce battle with the ancestors of several great families in Nanyang City.

Everyone was silent, this was probably the King of Nanjing's plan.

When everyone's eyes were focused on the Yiyou battlefield, King Nanjing took the opportunity to unify Jingzhou in Nanjiang.

Everyone present knew how powerful the King of Nanjing's war potential was in the densely populated Nanjiang Jingzhou with a solid rear and a fertile land.

After Qin Yuan occupied two or three counties alone, he pulled out an army of 70 under constant recruitment.

Then it would not be a problem at all to give King Nanjing a period of time to raise an army of one million.

"The King of Southern Jing is ready to make a serious move. Tonight, he will either attack the Heavenly Dao Army or attack us."

Yuan Zi said with a gloomy face.

He was born in the Yuan family, and he knew this very well. King Nanjing was extremely hostile to the family.

This action now means that he has completely torn his face with the aristocratic family, and he has done it with real swords and guns.

"It really is a Hongmen Banquet."

Qin Yuan sighed softly. Although he had never met King Nanjing before, he could see from one source after another that King Nanjing was definitely a scheming man. He had been holding back for decades, and finally broke out at this moment.

Perhaps, King Nanjing wanted to explode a long time ago, but he was always looking for an opportunity.

Now in Youjiang City, more than half of the feudal forces of the Liehan Dynasty have gathered, including many feudal princes who are qualified to compete for the throne.

If they were wiped out in one go, then in the future, the King of Nanjing would reunify the world, and the obstacles he would encounter would be greatly reduced.

"The aristocratic family has reached an agreement that King Nanjing must be stopped no matter what. Even if we temporarily give up dealing with the Tiandao Army, King Nanjing and his lineage must be eliminated first, otherwise there will be endless troubles."

Yuan Zi was the first to express his opinion that he was born in the Yuan clan, representing most of the family power in the Central Plains.

"The Zhao family lineage also means the same thing." Zhao Shangqian echoed, he represents the Zhao clan and the power of the family headed by the Zhao clan.

"I just came to see Brother Qin Yuan, but when I received a letter from my father, the dragon veins outside Luodu were constantly pulsating, and the sound of dragon chants was often heard, and the visions of heaven and earth were revealed. This should be the last trace of the strong man."

Zhao Zhen said seriously. "If King Nanjing succeeds, then the strong man's luck will last at least another 300 years."

What Zhao Zhen meant was obvious. King Nanjing might become the Lord of the Rejuvenation of the Lie Han. If he succeeded, the Lie Han Dynasty would continue, and no one else could steal it.

If it fails, then the era representing Lie Han will be gone forever. This is the last luck of the Lie Han Dynasty, and success or failure will be determined in one fell swoop.

"So, it is possible that King Nanjing has broken through to the innate realm?"

Gongsun Chi guessed.

Because it has been rumored for a long time that once the king of Nanjing breaks through to the innate realm, he will pull the luck of the world, re-condense the luck of the country, and restore the glory of the strong man.

"This possibility is not ruled out." Yuan Zi nodded slightly.

The King of Nanjing purged the power of various families in Nanjiang Jingzhou, making it clear that he would be fully prepared to be an enemy of the aristocratic families.

Especially in the Battle of Nanyang, the identity of the two innate masters who appeared was unknown, and this became an indelible cloud in the hearts of everyone.

If you add King Nanjing himself, then there are three in total.

As for the Heavenly Dao Army, they will definitely help King Nanjing, but they have to guard against it. At this point, they need to gather at least five innate realm warriors to compete with him in terms of high-end combat power.

When it comes time to compete for the world's hegemony, even innate warriors who have been in seclusion for many years and have not come out of the world cannot avoid this storm.

"Ahem, the military branch headed by me has always guarded the border and rarely interfered with the affairs of other forces."

Seeing everyone's gazes, Gongsun Chi looked at him and coughed lightly.

Among the five people present, Yuan Zi and Zhao Shangqian represent the power of the aristocratic family, and they are the forces most eager to overthrow the unification of the Lie Han Dynasty and re-establish a new dynasty.

This new dynasty can be cultivated by aristocratic families from all walks of life, but it cannot be people from the collateral lineage of the royal family of the Lie Han.

Zhao Zhen represents the imperial court and Luodu's lineage. They hope that the royal family of the Liehan Dynasty will remain decayed, and that the land of Sizhou will not be affected by the outside world while the world is in chaos.

Then they can always "hold the world to order the princes" and become the real uncrowned kings, and at the same time they don't want to rise up with blood relations with the Liehan royal family.

Gongsun Chi is considered to be in the neutral faction, holding a lot of power and sitting at the border. No matter who becomes the emperor, it does not have much influence on them, but sometimes he wants to intervene, which is also a force that cannot be ignored.

Finally, there is Qin Yuan, who has no imperial background, no support from aristocratic families, and does not belong to the military or rebel line, but belongs to a rising new force.

In troubled times, this kind of person is called a "hidden dragon" or a "true dragon". Although it is inconspicuous in the early stage, once the opportunity is seized, it will transform into a dragon in a storm, and no one can stop it.

"Well, if you need me, try to do my best."

Seeing that Yuan Zi, Zhao Zhen and others had bad eyesight, Gongsun Chi said helplessly.

Finally, all eyes fell on Qin Yuan.

"Don't look at me like that. As soon as you sit down, you will hear you talking about King Nanjing. In fact, I don't know many things."

Qin Yuan waved his hand, "If you take action against the Heavenly Dao Army, it's called killing the rebels and making meritorious deeds, but the King of Nanjing is a prince after all. Although there are some rumors that he has a connection with the Heavenly Dao Army, no one has evidence, so, What should everyone do, why not kill a few more Heavenly Dao Soldiers when you have time."

"Brother Qin's words are wrong. According to what I said, the King of Nanjing regards you very 'valued'. You are the most important guest at the banquet tonight."

Yuan Zi said heavily.

A distinguished guest is not necessarily a good thing. The King of Nanjing attaches great importance to Qin Yuan, either because he wants to win Qin Yuan over, or if he wants to get rid of him quickly.

Yuan Zi didn't go into details, but everyone knew that Qin Yuan slaughtered and destroyed the eyes of the formation on the Yiyou battlefield. On the surface, it seemed to destroy the plan of the Heavenly Dao Army, but in fact, it also destroyed the plan of King Nanjing.

If not, then tonight's 'Hongmen Banquet' would not exist.

Qin Yuan didn't say a word, he also guessed in his heart that King Nanjing's purpose this time was not good, but after all, the two sides didn't really tear their skins apart, let alone confronted each other head-on, at most they were fighting in secret.

"Nowadays the world is in chaos, all the princes have risen, before there was the Heavenly Dao Army wreaking havoc on Shenzhou, and later there was the King of Nanjing plotting the world, we bear the heavy responsibility of the imperial court."

Yuan Zi said with a solemn face, pointing out that the current spheres of influence of several people do not overlap, and there will be no conflicts in the short term.

Then elaborated on the 'crimes' committed by the Heavenly Dao Army and the King of Nanjing, and then discussed to form an offensive and defensive alliance to deal with the joint efforts of the Heavenly Dao Army and the King of Nanjing.

"I think Brother Yuan is right."

Zhao Shangqian was the first to agree, and it seemed that he secretly communicated with Yuan Zi to reach an agreement.

Gongsun Chi thought about it and agreed to join. This alliance is not bad for him.

Zhao Zhen glanced at Qin Yuan and expressed his opinion. Although the few people present may be enemies on the battlefield in the future, they have a common purpose now, and temporary cooperation may not be impossible.

Zhao Zhen's purpose is actually very simple, that is to prevent the rise of King Nanjing of the Liehan clan. As for the various princes competing for hegemony in the world, this is the general trend, and even his father cannot stop it.

In the Luodu court, there are also many people from aristocratic families, and the power of the great general Zhao Xuan is also inseparable from the aristocratic families.

"Count me in."

Qin Yuan nodded slightly and said, in the current situation, no matter how powerful Qin Yuan is, can he be stronger than King Nanjing who occupies a state?Can it beat the Heavenly Dao Army all over China?Can you still deal with no less than five innate masters?

If not, then it is very necessary to bring in a few allies to share the pressure together.

Unless, Qin Yuan took refuge in King Nanjing or the Heavenly Dao Army.

But it will also face the power of the family and the court from Yuan Zi and others.

The five reached a consensus, and the alliance was finally formed. As for the leader?Nature does not exist.

Even how long this temporary alliance can last, no one knows.

But with the five of them as the leader, as the highest level of the alliance, and calling other forces, princes, and aristocratic families to join, it must become an alliance that is not weaker than the Nanjing King-Tiandao Army alliance.

Everyone looked at each other, smiled, and had a drink together.

Since King Nanjing was regarded as an imaginary enemy and the innate master behind him, everyone was discussing how to deal with it.

In fact, they are not afraid of fighting with real swords and guns.

But now everyone is gathered in Youjiang City, which is also the territory of King Nanjing, and there is still an army of 50 by the river, everyone must unite to deal with it, and the two innate masters who may appear.

Finally, the topic turned to the refining formation, and the method of manipulating the formation was discussed.

Everyone's eyes once again focused on Qin Yuan.

"This is the secret method of array control. As an ally, I should share it."

Yuan Zi and others revealed a lot of secret information, and Qin Yuan took some benefits appropriately, one of which is the secret method of controlling the formation.

For Qin Yuan, the secret method of array control is now, and he doesn't mind sharing it in exchange for benefits from them.

"However, there is no way to break through the innate realm."

Qin Yuan said regretfully.

But no one noticed what he said, they all focused on the secret book in Qin Yuan's hand.

Qin Yuan threw it out and let the four of them watch.

During this period, the expressions of several people changed.

"good stuff."

After watching it, Gongsun Chi sighed with emotion, his eyes filled with longing.

Although there is no way to break through the innate in the secret book, it provides another way for Gongsun Chi to break through the innate, and even the success rate is close to [-]%.

Yuan Zi was the last one to finish reading, and then checked the cheat book itself. After finding that there was nothing missing, he also showed an expression of unwillingness.

They were both excited and disappointed.

What is exciting is that I finally got the control method of refining the big array eye, and it is 100% real. Qin Yuan has tried it more than once, and now that he has it out, he will naturally not deceive his allies.

Disappointingly, the cheat book is intact, but it does not record the method of breaking through the innate.

"I'm afraid only King Nanjing, or the three heads of Tiandaozong will know."

Zhao Zhen clenched his fist and said.

"Let's see it tonight. If King Nanjing is already innate, then he must have mastered the secret method."

Yuan Zi's eyes were bright.

It is an astonishing idea to suppress the innate breakthrough secret technique from King Nanjing.

"Well, but if the King of Southern Jing is in the innate realm, you can deal with it with confidence."

Gongsun Chi reminded.

Everyone was stunned and remained silent for a long time, not knowing whether they were frightened or were hiding something.

When everyone was silent, there was a burst of noise outside, people's voices were buzzing, and horses were crying endlessly.

"Report, Yuwen Zun and his group arrived at Zuixiangju, and Xuanyou, who was with him, attacked the soldiers brought by General Qin."

A man who looked like a general hurriedly reported.

Qin Yuan's expression froze, Xuanyou dared to attack his people.

"Presumptuous, how dare you be disrespectful to court officials." Zhao Zhen slapped the table and looked at Qin Yuan.

"It's unreasonable, this thief must be killed to make an example to others." Yuan Zi showed anger, but sat still, waiting for Qin Yuan's reaction.

"Yuwen Zunhe is the son-in-law of the King of Nanjing. It is reported that the Xuanbing Sword Sect has secretly joined the King of Nanjing. Xuanyou is the current sword master of the Xuanbing Sword Sect, and his strength is only half a step away from the innate realm. Even if it is me, One-on-one is not necessarily an opponent."

Gongsun Chi on the side reminded him.

"It's okay, then I invite you to watch a good show."

Qin Yuan unhurriedly put down the teacup in his hand, stood up, and walked to the window.

From this point of view, Xuanyou's attack on Qin Yuan's people and Yu Wen Zunhe's personal arrival at Zuixiangju simply represented the will of King Nanjing and tested Qin Yuan's background.

And these so-called allies around him, wishing that Qin Yuan would take the lead in clashing with King Nanjing, they were all human beings.
