Gu Zhaoge stood high up, looking outside with a solemn expression.
""Owner, we still have a bit of time to spare.""
If Duke Yan was really being controlled, he wouldn"t have thought that the owner would know that he was being controlled.
That"s why I asked the host to send Xiao Qidao over himself. This period of time is the only time we can make use of.
Before the proprietor sent for me, almost all the arrangements had been made.
""Head of the Armaments Department, an expert from the Gathering of the Shang Clan, as well as the news of a stroll, this is the first step.""
He looked towards An Zhe and said, ""These arrangements will completely disrupt the Yan Emperor"s arrangements. So, if I"m not wrong, the next step should be to send out an order from Heavenly Temple calling you a traitor, Heavenly Enlightenment Sect plotting against you, and issuing an order to kill you.""
An Xuan nodded. ""Time is too tight, and there"s no way so many of us can escape.""
However, we still have a way out. The reason why the Heaven Defying Seal has been kept secret for so long was to deal with the situation today.
""If you have the ability to evacuate, then evacuate. If you don"t have the ability, then there"s still the Heaven Defying Seal to make the last card.""
Gu Chao said in unison, ""So, at least we won"t suffer a crushing defeat.""
He looked outside and said, ""There are not many powers that can be mobilized by the King of Yan … If Little Seven"s ident.i.ty is made public, the big clans will be waiting. At the very least, they will not be in a hurry to make a move.""
As for the brocade palace, they might directly intervene.
However, based on Empress Dowager Su"s personality, she would only wait until the Duke of Yan was at his wit"s end.
""Soldiers … it all depends on what the adults of the Infantry Division think now.""
As he said that, a team of at least a thousand people moved quickly from the other side of the street. General w.a.n.g Kai-tai took the lead and held the line.
These one thousand soldiers were extremely fast, and these were all highly trained elite soldiers. Their formation was not chaotic at all as they advanced rapidly.
""Let me in!""
An Zeng gave the order, and the doors of the Heavenly Awakening Sect creaked open.
Over a thousand men of the army rushed in like a flood, then lined up on the side.
Chen Zaiyan and w.a.n.g Kai-tai, who were the officials of the Military Affairs Department, almost ran over, their faces turning pale.
A few minutes later, the team from the Gathering Merchant Guild arrived. There were only a hundred and ten people, but they were all cultivators.
""Is what you said true?!""
Chen Zaiyan looked at An Sheng in disbelief, then turned to Xiao Qi and said, ""This is … the heavens will not destroy my Great Yan!""
Zhuang Feifei"s expression was a little ugly, ""Can we rely on our people to deal with it?""
Our only advantage now is that the Empress Mother did not expect you to do so.
""But by the time she realizes it, our power might not even be able to stop it.""
An Xuan King continued, ""The King of Yan will definitely issue an edict. The first to arrive should be from the Ministry of Justice.""
I"ve already sent someone to speak to Tantai Cha. Tantai shouldn"t be involved in this sort of thing.
Besides Ty, the Board of Justice had no other power.
Therefore, the first attack was sent by the King of Swallow … … These people were trained by the King of Swallow alone. He would hide them even deeper and carry out his orders thoroughly.
However, dealing with them is not a difficult task.
""The ones who are difficult to deal with are experts from the brocade palace.""
Zhuang Feifei glanced at Xiao Qi and said, ""This child"s life is also bitter … But no matter what, we are on the same boat now.""
""If the King of Yan is really controlled, the soldiers and the members of the Gathering Shang Academy will be eliminated sooner or later.""
An Zhan nodded, ""The first wave will be Yan w.a.n.g"s men, and the second wave will be the Imperial Army … It"s nothing to worry about.""
""Right now, I have hidden the Little Seven Daos in the Heaven Defying Seal. Then, I will think of a way to create a facade and lure away the experts … If possible, I want to go to the brocade palace.""
Zhuang Feifei"s face changed, ""What did you say?!""
An Zhan shook his head. ""Keep quiet for now. If Empress Dowager Su mobilizes her forces to attack the Heavenly Awakening Sect, it won"t be a problem for me to persevere with the magical equipment in my hands.""
If I can sneak into the brocade palace and take down Empress Dowager Su, then those waiting clans will intervene.
What they were thinking now was to preserve their own strength and not take the initiative to intervene.
""But if Empress Dowager Su gets caught by me, they"ll immediately step forward.""
Zhuang Feifei: ""That"s easier said than done!""
""Everyone knows it"s not easy, so it"s an opportunity.""
Zhuang Feifei shook her head, ""You have no chance of winning.""
An Zhan said, ""We"ll talk about it after we try.""
At this moment, a group of more than a hundred members of the Board of Punishments"s cavalry came rushing over from the distance. The leader of the cavalry was Tantai Cha.
He rode his horse to the outside of the Heavenly Enlightenment Sect and looked at the crossbow arrows and hard work on the high wall. He couldn"t help but sigh, ""Sir An, your sudden appearance has made me very uneasy.""
""Lord Tantai, it is not that I want to cause trouble, but it is that I have to do it as soon as possible,"" he said, trying to look casual as he stood on the high wall.
I think I need you to give me an opinion on this matter. ""
Tantai Che looked behind him. ""What att.i.tude can I have?""
Of course, my team of a hundred and ten people will not be able to get in either, so I"ll return and report to the Board of Justice right away.
""Give me a few arrows as a token, otherwise, I won"t be able to explain it to you.""
An Xuan said with a smile, ""An Jian won"t waste a single arrow on you. Let"s go quickly.""
Tantai Cha turned around and instructed, ""As you can see, the Heavenly Awakening Sect has a very tight defense. We have been unable to break through for a long time and suffered heavy losses.""
""Do you know what to say when you go back?""
The soldiers nodded. ""Of course.""
Tantai Cha laughed heartily. ""Go back to your homes. All of you are human experts.""
""Remember, after you return and report to your father, hide. Your father doesn"t want you to die too quickly.""
""My lord, what about you?""
Someone asked.
""I am no longer a commander for Tee. It is fine if you say that I betrayed you, but you can just go back and report to your superiors,"" Tantai Che said.
He leaped down from his war horse and walked to the entrance of the Heavenly Awakening Sect. ""I have my own choices as well.""
The soldiers all clasped their hands together, ""May sire be well and wait for sire to return.""
Tantai Chun let An Zaiyue open the door, then waved his hand towards those people, ""Scram. Scram.""
The hundred Tethys turned their warhorses around and galloped away like a wisp of smoke.
An Zhan looked at Tantai Cha in confusion. ""This … does not seem to fit your personality.""
""There"s no need for you to get involved. After all, you"re a big shot.""
Tantai smiled and said, ""I am the Commander of the Board of Justice"s Tee Cavalry, but before that, I was a merchant.""
How can a businessman make money?
Of course it"s speculation … I don"t know why, but I thought that you all could win.
In the event that you win, my position in the Yan Kingdom will naturally skyrocket.
If you lose, I still have the status of Da Xi.
""As long as I enter the Qing Zhai, even Empress Dowager Su won"t dare do anything.""
""But no matter how you look at it, our chances of winning aren"t high.""
Tantage: ""A business. If ten people make one choice, then at most each of these ten people will earn a profit.""
If all nine of them are on the other side, and I"m on this side, it would be extremely profitable if I made it … But those were all nonsense.
""I just feel that you must have some tricks up your sleeve, right?""
An Zhan shook his head. ""I really don"t have any.""
Tantai was stunned for a moment before he asked, ""Is it too late to go back on your words?""
An Zhan shrugged his shoulders. ""Take care.""
Tantai Che: ""Even if you don"t send me off, you still won"t leave. Bring me to meet the future King. I need to let him know that I"m here alone.""
""One day, perhaps, I will become the new Minister of Justice.""
An Zhan cupped his fists. ""Lord Shang Shu walked to the back and saw Lord Chen.""
As for the future Duke of Yan, you won"t be able to meet him.
I"ve hidden it, but don"t worry, I"ll tell him you"re here to protect him. ""
Tantai Che: ""Forget it, forget it. I won"t bicker with you … You owe me a favor for this matter today.""
Do you know why I came?
In fact, it all came down to it.
I"m not interested in the Yan Country at all.
In the Board of Justice, I only hid my ident.i.ty a little more deeply.
Even if Yan Guo breaks down, I can still go to other places. Zhao, Korea, You Guo, Hegemon, all of them have my property.
Even if I return to the Da Xi, with my current position and wealth, the Tantai family will still have a place for me.
""I came because I think highly of you.""
He smiled and said, ""Merchants earn a small sum of money and look at it right in front of their eyes.""
Earning a lot of money depended on the duration.
""You will have great achievements in the future. I will help you today, and you will help me in the future.""
""It"s boring to talk about it.""
""I am a merchant, but I am not a profiteer. If you have any words to say, it is much better than speaking of brotherly feelings in a fict.i.tious manner.""
Do you know what the most stable relationship is?
It"s a cooperation that has a common interest. ""
""Thank you very much.""
Tantai Che: ""It"s fine if you keep it later. You don"t need to thank me.""
At that moment, a group of people came in from outside.
It was led by the eunuch called Xiang Chun.
He alighted from the carriage and looked at the heavily guarded Tianqi Sect, then began to recite the imperial edict from afar.
It was nothing more than a dispute that had wasted the Yan Emperor"s attention. He had let down the Yan Emperor"s upbringing, and had plotted against the spirit of usurpation.
According to the laws of the Great Yan, there should be nine clans in a row.
However, as long as the people within the sect were able to distance themselves from the sect, they would not be able to do anything about it.
An Zhe glanced at Gu Zhaoge, who was standing beside him. ""There"s still time to write this thing …""
Gu Zhaogong smiled and said, ""You have to be famous.""
He unfolded the item in his hand and handed it to An Zhe after some thought. ""Find someone with a loud voice to read it.""
An Xuan couldn"t help but laugh as he called Lan Jing over.
Lang Jing read out what Gu Zhaogong had written and quickly suppressed the sound of his voice.
Gu Zhaogong wrote the world, a thousand words, words like a knife.
An Zaidao tilted his head to look at Gu Zhaoge. ""You actually have the time to write this thing …""
Gu Zhaogong replied, ""We have to get a name for ourselves …""
Since he couldn"t continue thinking about it, he simply yelled at the top of his lungs, ""Hand over An Zhan and that fake former crown prince"s child, and you"ll still have a chance.""
""If I resist …""
Before he could finish his words, Skinny Du raised a rock and threw it over: ""Bullsh * t!""
Chun retreated a step and gave Skinny Du a vicious look. He then pointed forward: ""Kill him without mercy!""
A group of Swallow King secretly recruited no less than several hundred cultivators, and began to charge along the main street in the direction of the Heavenly Enlightenment Sect.
Old Huo sat on the high seat with his pipe in his mouth. He waved to Skinny Du, ""Come, come, this first time will make you feel refreshed.""
Skinny Du laughed as he ran over and stood beside Old Huo.
In front of him was what looked like a heavy crossbow. However, there was a very thick barrel.
It"s full of stuff. I don"t know what it is.
Old Huo pointed to the other side and said, ""This will change the situation on the battlefield in the future, so I will give it to you for free.""
""However, if you want to use this thing, you have to be rich and overbearing.""
Skinny Du: ""The Heavenly Enlightenment Sect is really rich!""
Then he pulled on the rope and fired with a loud bang.
A ma.s.s of green light burst out from the barrel and exploded in mid-air. It then shot out like a torrential rain.
These were at least dozens of spirit stones, and each spirit stone had a steel ball attached to it.
The blast cleared a s.p.a.ce a few hundred meters wide in front of him!"
