Let them show their loyalty!

"There seems to be a fight in Wangbeicheng."

"Wangbeicheng is suspected of fighting with many high-level catastrophes."

"There should be a conflict between the royalists and Qiu Tu."

"I sensed the auras of multiple fifth-level catastrophic beings."

"Report it, report it quickly!"

The departure of Dongye Prefecture's army did not take place in one or two days, but more than a week passed. So these days, all parties, whether they are sensitive or slow, have almost guessed Qiu Tu and Princess Xi's plan.

——Using the murder of the envoy group as an excuse to intervene in the 6th shelter and join forces to deal with the Kou family.

This conclusion has already become the consensus of all high-level officials in the northwest region along with the actions of the Dongye Prefecture army along the route and the proactive attitude of Princess Xi to welcome them.

All high-level officials in the northwest region have acquiesced in the cooperation between Qiu Tu and Princess Xi, and are also waiting for the 6th Sanctuary to undergo major changes that have not been seen in decades.

Who knows, but the two of them broke up? And there was a fight?

This sudden reversal really surprised everyone.

The first reaction of many senior executives is: Are they really overthinking? Are Qiu Tu's people really there to deal with the murder case of the envoys?

Then the two sides failed to reach an agreement, and Princess Xi became so arrogant that they started fighting?

So, is this world really a huge grassroots team?

However, after more senior executives learned the news and were shocked, they still noticed something was wrong.

The 8th Sanctuary, formerly the "Officer Academy", is now the "8th Sanctuary Central Academy". Dean's Office.

Huang Shangzong, the new leader of the academic faction, a high-level executive of the shelter, and the dean of Central Academy, is sitting on the sofa accompanied by Xueer.

On the sofa opposite him, a man and a girl were sitting.

The man is not tall, his face is old, and his body is wrinkled, giving people a feeling of decay.

Astonishingly, it was Yan Ai, the current second-in-command of the academic faction and the new Speaker of Nanqu Prefecture.

The girl is of course Qiu Tu’s little bitch Yanyan.

As the victors of this academic purge, second only to Qiu Tu, both Huang Shangzong and Yan Ai can be regarded as rising to prominence.

In contrast, the strength of the academic faction has plummeted. Not only have many middle-level officials been transferred to idle positions, but even the top management has been purged.

Originally the third largest faction in the 8th Sanctuary, the Academic Faction had a deputy speaker and 6-7 members in the Supreme Council.

As a result, now, there are only 2 people with a full score. Huang Shangzong and another academic leader who is not concerned with worldly affairs. And they are all at the parliamentary level.

The third person who has the potential to become a high-level member of the shelter and a member of the Supreme Council is Yan Ai in front of him.

This still requires him to make some political achievements in Nanqu Prefecture.

It can be said that the entire academic sect has declined extremely.

At this time, Huang Shangzong looked at Yan Ai in front of him, his eyes a little deep, and he said, "Nanqu Prefecture is one of the first states where our shelter was opened. The situation is relatively stable, and it is a bit difficult to achieve political achievements."

"But now the academy can only rely on a few of its own people."

"So, if you need any support, you can call me and I will help you as much as possible."

After hearing Huang Shangzong's words, Yan Ai rubbed the back of his left hand with his old right hand, and then said in a hoarse voice, "It's just Nanquzhou, it can't trouble me. I can do it on my own."

"But... I want long-term intelligence support."

"Intelligence support?" Huang Shangzong was a little confused. His thick eyebrows furrowed and he looked at Yan Ai with a broad and resolute face, "What kind of intelligence support?"

Yan Ai looked at Huang Shangzong with his turbid eyes, and said in a hoarse voice, "Qiu Tu. I hope he can tell me if there are any changes."

Speaking of this, Yan Ai paused and said, "For example, before I came in just now, I seemed to hear that Qiu Tu and Princess Xi had a falling out?"

Although this information involved Qiu Tu, Yan Ai's confidentiality level was high enough, so Huang Shangzong did not avoid Yan Ai at that time.

Now that Yan Ai was asking, he thought about it for a moment and then spoke out all the information he had obtained.

After saying that, he couldn't help but sigh, "Actually, I have been paying attention to Qiu Tu's actions. At that time, I also felt that Qiu Tu and Princess Xi were working together internally and externally."

"The result was unexpected. I guessed wrong."

After hearing Huang Shangzong's words, Yan Ai and Yanyan beside him had a slightly subtle expression for a moment.

Perhaps aware of the change in his daughter's expression, Yan Nai turned his head to look at her with neither joy nor sorrow.

Yanyan put away the expression on her face and returned to her innocent and ignorant look.

Yan Nai sighed slightly in his heart, then turned around and said softly, "Old Huang, you are making Qiu Tu simple."

"You have dealt with him before. His mind is like an onion, with layers within layers."

"You think he is on the second floor, but actually he may be on the third or fourth floor."

Yan Ai paused, and then analyzed, "It is most likely true that he and Princess Xi were in harmony with each other internally and externally."

"The disappearance of the envoy group is too much of a coincidence. And Princess Xi must have been prepared to take advantage of the opportunity to occupy the border state."

"As for the two of them falling out now. It may be a show to deceive the Kou family; or it may be that Qiu Tu betrayed Princess Xi and chose to cooperate with the Kou family."

Compared with Yan Ai's political literacy, Huang Shangzong was obviously inferior.

However, after experiencing a series of recent events, he has one more advantage, that is, he accepts suggestions with an open mind.

He leaned on the sofa, tapping his thick knuckles on the armrest of the sofa, thinking quietly.

After a moment, he nodded slightly and said affirmatively, "I think it makes sense."

"From this point of view, Qiu Tu may indeed have chosen to cooperate with the Kou family."

"This is also reasonable. After all, the Kou family is stronger and can provide him with greater help."

Hearing his words, Yan Chen nodded slightly, his eyes flickering a little.

To be honest. He just gave an example casually.

If he were to analyze it seriously, he actually felt that Qiu Tu might not only reach the 3rd floor, but also the 4th and 5th floors.

But he had too little information about the 6th Shelter, and he knew too little about the 6th Shelter, so he couldn't guess what Qiu Tu wanted to do for a while.

But based on his understanding of Qiu Tu, he felt that it shouldn't be that simple for Qiu Tu to intervene in the affairs of the 6th Shelter.

At the same time, in the 8th Shelter, Rao Shou's yard.

Rao Shou didn't go fishing today, but played chess with Tang Wanfeng.

Rao Shou played white and Tang Wanfeng played black. The two chatted about the situation of the 6th Shelter while playing.

"Pah." Putting a white chess piece on the chessboard, Rao Shou stared at the chessboard and said slowly, "Qiu Tu really likes to play cards out of the box."

"I originally thought he was cooperating with Princess Xi, but now it seems that his partner should be the Kou family."

Tang Wanfeng also stared at the chessboard, then nodded slightly, "Yes."

"I heard that not long ago, Su Wanqing, one of the ten outstanding members of the Kou family, went to Dongye Prefecture and talked with him several times."

"It is very likely that he was persuaded at that time."

Rao Shou heard this, his eyes revealed a trace of deep thought, "Su Wanqing"

He commented, "That girl is really not simple."

He straightened up, looked into the distance with a distant look, and then said, "Some things have to be admitted, there may really be such a thing as luck in this world."

"Two stars in one family, ten outstanding members. Each of them is a genius."

"The Kou family has been dormant in the northwest for so many years, and it is indeed booming in this generation. . "

"Cooperating with the Kou family is indeed a better choice for Qiu Tu."

"If the Kou family can be conquered, Qiu Tu may be able to go further."

Hearing Rao Shou's words, Tang Wanfeng pondered for a moment, and then gently played with the black chess piece in his hand,

"To be honest, I don't think this is Qiu Tu's style of doing things."

"Because of Fei Yatou, I know him better. I don't think he is a person who likes to break contracts or betray others."

"Although we old guys don't have a high opinion of his character."

"But counting his experience, he is very good to his own people or those who rely on him."

"Although he laughs, scolds, and plots, there is always a bottom line there."

"So. I don't think he is the kind of person who can betray Princess Xi and cooperate with the Kou family."

Hearing Tang Wanfeng's words, Rao Shou's expression on his face slowly disappeared. He played with the chess piece in his hand and pondered quietly.

After a moment, he hesitated and said, "But. If he doesn't betray Princess Xi, what can he do?"

"There is only one shelter No. 6. He can't just give it in half to Princess Xi and the Kou family, and then be the boss himself, right?"

Speaking of this, Rao Shou couldn't help but laugh.

But after laughing twice, the expression on his face suddenly froze.

"Crack!" With a sound, the chess piece in his hand was crushed by him.

Tang Wanfeng looked at him a little puzzled, and then asked, "What's wrong?"

Rao Shouqiang smiled and shook his head, "It's okay, it's okay. I think too much."

He threw away the broken chess piece in his hand, and then said, "No matter how crazy Qiu Tu is, he won't want to intervene in two shelters at the same time, right?"

"If there is no legitimate reason and excuse, he will be attacked by everyone."

He shook his head and said, "So, it's impossible, impossible."

However, although he said so, the smile on his face was still a little forced.

At this time, Tang Wanfeng obviously understood the meaning of Rao Shou's words. His expression also changed suddenly.

But like Rao Shou, after thinking about it carefully for two rounds, he was also a little bit unbelievable.

‘It shouldn’t be that bad, right? ’

Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but look up in the direction of the 7th Shelter.

At the same time. 7th Shelter.

The head of the Zhao family, the elder Zhao Pan, was also listening to the report of the intelligence personnel.

When he heard that Qiu Tu and Princess Xi had a falling out, his expression was a little hesitant for a while.

‘Falling out? ’

Today, Cheng Honggang, the head of the Cheng family, Yudie’s family, contacted him in Fengqizhou, saying that he suspected that the beautiful speaker Yudie beside Qiu Tu was the "furnace tripod" of the Cheng family who escaped that year.

Afterwards, Cheng Hong was worried that Yudie and Qiu Tu would join forces, which would be detrimental to the Cheng family, and even used this as an excuse to intervene in the affairs of the 7th Shelter.

But he was really a little worried about it.

After all, Qiu Tu’s personal strength was too strong. If he combined with Princess Xi to control the 6th Shelter, he would be the well-deserved uncrowned king of the northwest region.

At that time, if he really puts pressure on the 7th shelter to stand up for Yudie.

To be honest, even Elder Zhao would not dare to resist, and he would probably choose to sacrifice the Cheng family and kill the Cheng family to silence them.

As a result, Qiu Tu and Princess Xi have fallen out now.

This immediately relieved the pressure in his heart, and also made him have the leisure to eat melons and watch the fun.

After all, one of his great pleasures is to watch these once-powerful forces fall from the altar.

The Lin family was like this back then, King Kang was like this, and Qiu Tu is also like this now

And at this moment, just as he was thinking this.

Suddenly, the phone on his desk rang again.

Elder Zhao picked up the landline receiver, and before he could speak, the anxious voice of the intelligence officer came from the landline receiver on the other end of the phone, "Elder, something happened, something happened."

"The two stars of the Kou family have also arrived in the border state, Wangbei City. But, but they brought the Lin family with them."

"The Lin family?" Elder Zhao didn't react to what was going on for a while, "Which Lin family?"

The intelligence officer said, "It's the Lin family, the Lin family that founded our shelter."

Hearing the words of the intelligence officer, Elder Zhao's face changed slightly.

He was one of the controllers of a shelter, and he could discover the value of the "Dual Path Test" and "Butterfly Gu". He was just bad, not stupid.

He looked down on Qiu Tu before because he didn't know Qiu Tu that well. Now that the intelligence and clues are in front of him, how could he still not understand what Qiu Tu, the Kou family, Princess Xi and the Lin family are doing!

For a moment, he was stunned there, and then he laughed in anger, "How dare you!"

"Mad men! A bunch of crazy men! Do they really think that our three families can be manipulated by others if we keep a low profile?!"

"It's not enough to interfere with the 6th shelter, but you also want to support Princess Xi to investigate the 7th shelter!?"

"Do you really think the northwest region belongs to him!"

After scolding, Elder Zhao shouted, "Talk again and report again!"

Then he hung up the phone with a "click!"!

After hanging up the phone, he walked back and forth in the study with a serious expression, then picked up the phone and said, "Prepare a car for me, I want to go to the Han family!"

At the same time. The 6th shelter, Wangbei City, the city lord's mansion.

At this time, the city lord's mansion has been surrounded by soldiers who heard the news and rushed to the city lord's mansion.

But as Qiu Tu analyzed before, in a world with extraordinary power, the power of ordinary soldiers is too small.

What's more, Qiu Tu also brought an army.

In fact, the army stationed in Wangbei City is far less than the 90,000 troops in Dongye Prefecture.

Therefore, all the forces on the scene maintained relative restraint.

At this time, in the City Lord's Mansion.

Qiu Tu and Princess Xi also met Kou Xuan.

Kou Xuan in the information is in his thirties, but maybe because of his good strength and good maintenance, he looks like a cream boy in his early twenties.

He wore a green Hanfu, the fabric was superior, the texture was delicate and elegant. There was a jade pendant tied around his waist, which was as warm as sheep fat, and glowed softly under the sunlight.

Seeing Qiu Tu, he bowed with a smile, then stretched out his hand to gesture to the back and said, "Chairman Qiu, these are all the family members of the Lin family now."

"After you arrange me, I will send people to find and persuade them. They all volunteered to come to the 6th shelter and agreed that Lin Xi would be their new head of the family."

Hearing Kou Xuan's words, Qiu Tu also smiled, "Lord Kou is thorough, this is the best. It saves a lot of trouble."

Princess Xi's eyes fell lightly on the group of Lin family members behind Kou Xuan.

Because it is already spring, the clothes of the Lin family have begun to become thin.

So, judging from their exposed arms, the scars on their chests, and their timid expressions, they are indeed voluntary.

However, she didn't have much good feelings for the Lin family, so she looked away with an indifferent expression and listened to the conversation between Qiu Tu and Kou Xuan again.

Kou Xuan, "How does Speaker Qiu plan to deal with the core members of the royalist faction?"

Qiu Tu glanced at Princess Xi, and then said, "I just chatted with the princess. The princess meant that Ji Yuan, Xu Yun and Du Wenzhong can all be trusted."

"Xiao Huan and Li Hanxiang are the leaders of the royalist faction's civil and military officials, and she can't suppress them."

Hearing this, Kou Xuan glanced at Princess Xi, then looked at Qiu Tu, and asked tentatively, "Then?"

This time, before Qiu Tu spoke, Princess Xi said indifferently, "Xiao Huan and Li Hanxiang are the masterminds behind the killing of the envoys. The crime is unforgivable."

In one sentence, cold and without a trace of emotion.

Qiu Tu and Kou Xuan looked at each other and smiled.

It must be said that the three of them may be cold-blooded political creatures, so they cooperated very smoothly and in sync, and the whole plan was implemented very smoothly.

That afternoon, Princess Xi arrested Xiao Huan and Li Hanxiang on the grounds that they were suspected of murdering the 8th Shelter Mission.

Then, the Dongyezhou army began to merge with the royalist army.

The royalists had confidants of Xiao Huan and Li Hanxiang, but under the strong suppression of Qiu Tu and Kou Xuan, some were arrested and some disappeared.

That night, the Lin family held an extremely depressing ceremony. Princess Xi, or Lin Xi, officially became the new head of the Lin family and qualified to become one of the four giants of the 7th shelter -

I have to attend a friend's wedding tomorrow and need to go to bed early (I now go to bed at 6-7 o'clock every day and can't get up until 1 o'clock in the afternoon. The wedding will enter at 11:30). So there is only 1 update today.
