empire wars

Chapter 98
"do not know."

Gongsun Chi said simply and clearly.

"."

I have taken off my pants, just tell me this.

Several people were silent for a long time, resisting the urge to make a move.

Li Deyi raised her head, her status was inferior to that of Gongsun Chi, she could bear it besides tolerance.

Li Deyong moved his body, feeling that the pressure on his body was getting heavier, and remained silent.

Qin Yuan's lips twitched. Of course, it was possible that Gongsun Chi knew, but they didn't know enough yet.

After all, this was only the first time they met.

"The situation in Yidu is too abnormal, and the behavior of King Nanjing is also too abnormal. According to my investigations these days, I found that the Tiandao Army has stationed troops in Yidu County for at least 14 years. When the Tiandao Army did not revolt, Jingzhou City A large amount of grain was levied from various counties and counties, and apparently shipped to Jingzhou City, but in fact, Jingzhou City’s granaries have never increased, and there has been no disaster relief, and no one knows the whereabouts of this batch of grain.”

Gongsun Chi didn't seem to feel anything and said.

Food and grass, people often think of the army, because this is almost bound together.

You can't collect so much grain and store it in the granary to feed the rats.

And all of this, except for the King of Nanjing, no one can do it, unless the people under his hands make the King of Nanjing empty.

However, all the information shows that King Nanjing is a domineering and powerful prince, and the entire King of Nanjing is under his control, so it is impossible for him to know these things.

"That doesn't mean that King Nanjing is cooperating with the Tiandao Army. Maybe King Nanjing has a long-term vision."

Li Deyi said something quietly.

If this batch of food did not fall into the hands of the Heavenly Dao Army, it meant that there was still a powerful army hidden in the hands of King Nanjing.

No matter which one it is, it means that King Nanjing is not as simple as it appears on the surface.

Now the King of Nanjing is leading an army of 50 in Youjiang, and there are at least 50 troops in Jingzhou in Nanjiang. There are an army of one million lions, plus some regular troops of the city guards. No prince can compare with it.

If there is still an unknown power hidden, then how terrifying is King Nanjing?
"On the surface, it seems that the Tiandao Army and the King of Nanjing are incompatible with each other. If there is no evidence,"

Qin Yuan shook his head. If there was no substantial evidence to prove that the Tiandao Army colluded with King Nanjing, it would be useless no matter how much they speculated.

At the same time, what conspiracy does the King of Nanjing have? He has to tear himself apart from the Heavenly Dao Army.

If the two forces join forces, they may be able to occupy most of the world.

However, if you want to establish a new dynasty, you still have a little to go.

First of all, the Tiandao Army belongs to the rebel army, and the aristocratic family will not allow the Tiandao Army to easily dominate the world.

In addition, King Nanjing is the Prince of the Fierce Han Dynasty. If he proclaims himself emperor, he will be nothing more than the second Fierce Han Dynasty, not the new dynasty. Neither the ministers in the court nor the princes will agree.

"Tiandao Sect has a sect leader who is very mysterious. No one knows his true identity. However, according to some information in the world, this person is at the peak of acquired status, not innate."

Gongsun Chi said again. "The King of Southern Jing has been stuck at the peak of Houtian for decades. It's not that he can't break through, but he doesn't dare to break through."

Therefore, if these two people are the same person, then all the fog can be lifted.

"Why?"

Li Deyi asked, he knew a lot about Tiandaozong's information, after all, he had been in the rivers and lakes for many years.

Tiandaozong is one of the most powerful forces in Jianghu, and its affiliated forces are spread all over China.

In the past, the scope of influence was limited to the Jianghu. In recent years, it has begun to change towards the direction of competing for world hegemony.

But Renzong's head is the King of Nanjing, he never thought about it, the two seem to be from different worlds.

He even didn't know the reason why King Nanjing didn't break through the innate realm.

"King of Southern Jing, is there any relationship between the Heavenly Dao Army and the Heavenly Dao Army? If there is a relationship, then it's not a good thing."

Qin Yuan knew a thing or two that King Nanjing was artificially suppressed, and he was not allowed to break through to the innate level, so that the strong man could re-condense the national destiny.

Is it possible for the Tiandao Army and King Nanjing to unite to break through the blockade of the aristocratic families?

It may succeed, but the probability of failure is not small.

Qin Yuan organized what he knew into a timeline.

As a prince, King Nanjing has been suppressed by the aristocratic family for decades, but at the same time he has not given up hope, has been accumulating strength and maintaining a certain balance.

If nothing unexpected happens, I am afraid that I will never have a chance to turn around in my life, and will die as the end is approaching or the dynasty collapses.

But the King of Southern Jing will not be reconciled, so in addition to the power on the surface, he is still cultivating power in the dark.

The Tiandao Sect has been inherited for thousands of years and has gone through several dynasties. It has become more and more prosperous and has a great reputation in the world, but it rarely gets involved in court affairs.

However, more than ten years ago, they began to promote the doctrine of salvation, with the purpose of overthrowing the rule of the Lie Han Dynasty.

Almost five years ago, the Tiandao Army rebelled, causing cholera in China, but at that time, neither the imperial court nor King Nanjing showed any reaction.

It was not until a few months ago that the new emperor ascended the throne and truly launched a suppression of the Tiandao Army.

This is also an important moment when the situation is reversed.

There, the Tiandao Army no longer expanded, but was encircled and suppressed by all parties and began to shrink its camp.

More than a month ago, King Nanjing, who had not expressed his stance, sent troops to attack the Tiandao army, but it was still a big thunder and a small rain.

It is said to have an army of 50, but it did not even win Yidu County. Instead, the Tiandao Army continued to recruit troops from all over the country.

The King of Nanjing also summoned the princes from all walks of life under the orders of the court, which eventually led to a confrontation between millions of troops.

Until now, except for a large-scale battle, King Nanjing no longer took action against the Heavenly Dao Army. Now the two sides in the battle have become the Heavenly Dao Army and the reinforcements of various princes.

Judging from the goals of the Tiandao Army and King Nanjing, there is almost no possibility of cooperation between the two.

But the rise of the Heavenly Dao Army has something to do with King Nanjing, so that's very subtle.

Perhaps, the two came together for a common purpose, but recently there seemed to be differences and they parted ways.

No, it may not necessarily be a disagreement, perhaps, this is also part of their plan.

What is the purpose of King Nanjing?Gather the fortunes of the country, restore the rule of the Lie Han, or establish a second Lie Han.

The purpose of the Heavenly Dao Army?Overthrow the rule of the Lie Han Dynasty.

The purposes are different, but the enemies they face are the same.

It's not the royal family, but the court, the court controlled by the ministers, the court controlled by the aristocratic family.

"We still know too little, everything exists only in suspicion, and it may be overthrown at any time."

Qin Yuan had some guesses in his mind, but still shook his head on the surface.

The King of Southern Jing was thoughtful.

"Brother Qin is right." Li Deyi agreed, feeling that the topic seemed a bit sensitive, and it was not something his level could bear. "I heard that the Oiran of the Jiaofang in Youjiang City is very beautiful, as beautiful as a flower and like a jade."

Li Deyi stood up and invited the two to go.

Li Deyi didn't want to participate too much in the matter of King Nanjing. Sometimes, knowing too much may not be a good thing.

"I have something to do tonight."

Qin Yuan waved his hand.

"The general doesn't bother to go to that kind of place." Gongsun said coldly.

Li Deyi's face was full of smiles, and just happened to fail the invitation, so she took advantage of the situation to leave.

On the wine table, Qin Yuan looked out of the window. Not long after, Li Deyi and his party left Zuixiangju and disappeared into the night of the street.

The direction is not to Jiaofangsi in the city, but outside the city, which should be back to the Youjiang Military Camp.

As for snitching?I believe that Li Deyi is not that courageous and not that stupid, otherwise she would not become a prince and gather so many powers from the world.

Li Deyi wants to rely on the King of Nanjing to climb up, but he will not be willing to become the King of Nanjing's subordinates. There is still a big difference between the two.

What's more, the few people were just chatting without any evidence. Even if King Nanjing heard about it, he would not believe it.

Moreover, neither Gongsun Chi nor Qin Yuan's status is comparable to that of Li Deyi.

Qin Yuan withdrew his gaze and looked at Gongsun Chi. Li Deyi's departure seemed to be the beginning of the conversation.

"Come on, let's find a place where we can talk."

Gongsun Chi looked around and said calmly.

The two got up at the same time, Gongsun Chi waved his hand, and led Qin Yuan out of the restaurant.

I thought that Gongsun Chi would take him to the eighth floor of Zuixiangju. After all, there would be fewer people on it, so we could talk about confidential matters.

It can be imagined that Li Deyi said that Zuixiangju is the territory of King Nanjing, let alone a place like a restaurant, where the walls have ears, so it is most appropriate to talk about romance.

The people on the seventh floor breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Gongsun Chi leaving. They were finally gone. Now they could speak loudly.

At the same time, they were also very interested in Qin Yuan's identity, who could be received by Gongsun Chi in person.

In today's Youjiang territory, the first step is undoubtedly King Nanjing, and there is no parallel.The second step is Gongsun Chi, Yuan Zi and other princes with profound background and great power.

Gongsun Chi invited Qin Yuan to a mansion in the city.

"Aren't you afraid?"

The streets at night are very quiet.

Although there is no curfew, there are very few pedestrians, and even patrolling soldiers cannot see it.

"What are you afraid of?"

Qin Yuan had a faint smile on his face, and he was only followed by a few Great Qin Tiger Guards.

Gongsun Chiji led hundreds of personal guards, many of whom were warriors with acquired strength.

And their destination this time was Gongsun Chi's mansion in Youjiang City, which belonged to him, and could not be touched by any force, including King Nanjing.

As the saying goes, people with great skills are bold. If Gongsun Chi wants to take the opportunity to attack Qin Yuan, it can only be said that he has misjudged the person.

What's more, Gongsun Chi didn't have that motive.

On the contrary, what Zuixiangju said was a bit of a temptation to win over.

"Hahaha, I really didn't see the wrong person."

Gongsun Chi laughed and stopped talking.

Soon, he brought Qin Yuan to a heavily guarded mansion. Outside the mansion, there were two soldiers standing at intervals of three meters with their backs leaning on each other, and two groups of hundreds of soldiers were constantly patrolling outside the mansion.

Even, with his acquired peak perception, when Qin Yuan came to the gate, he could feel dozens of eyes from the dark, watching him.

Qin Yuan paused, Gongsun Chi calmly waved his hands, and those eyes gradually disappeared.

In the meeting hall, the faint candlelight shone, and the two sat quietly.

On the contrary, Gongsun Chi was not in a hurry, took a sip of tea lightly, and chatted about some gossip.

"Don't worry, there are still two people left."

Looking at the uneasy Qin Yuan, Gongsun Chi said. "When they come, we'll talk about business."

"It seems that there are important people involved?"

Qin Yuan half-lyed on the chair without any image, fiddling with the antique porcelain bottle next to him.
