Chapter 13: Past Promises, Empress Dowager Xiao’s Demonstration
"This boy."
Jiang Xuan cursed with a smile.
He naturally knew what state Xu Shu was in when he talked about King Ning being as usual.
It's nothing more than a few lackeys.
Go out and walk the bird.
Whether he had something to do or not, he would go to the brothel to listen to music.
"Have you found out anything from King Zhou?" Shaking his head, Jiang Xuan asked again.
"not yet."
Xu Shu said slowly: "The contact between King Zhou and the people of Dali Dynasty is extremely secretive. Even the Black Ice Platform will not be able to find out anything in a short period of time."
"But in my opinion"
"At this critical juncture, the King of Zhou is getting closer and closer to the Dali Dynasty. There is only one possibility: he is using the Dali Dynasty to help him rebel."
Except this possibility.
Xu Shu couldn't think of any other possibility for King Zhou to come into contact with the Dali Dynasty.
After all, there were two dynasties, Dali and Dawu.
Although they cannot be said to be as hostile as fire and water, the hatred is quite deep.
The Chengwu Pass guarded by King Zhou today was not part of the territory of the Dawu Dynasty ten years ago.
"It seems."
"The Dali Dynasty can no longer sit still."
Jiang Xuan sneered upon hearing this, and said in a slightly cold tone: "It has only been a short time since the empress ascended the throne, and all these monsters and demons have suddenly appeared."
First, the northern barbarians.
Then came the White Lotus Sect. Now the Dali Dynasty can no longer sit still. I’m afraid it won’t last long.
The Wei Dynasty is also coming to an end.
"after all."
"Your Majesty is a woman."
“It’s hard for the world to agree.”
As Xu Shu spoke, he suddenly smiled at Jiang Xuan and said, "If it were you, my Lord, who was in charge of the Great Wu Dynasty, I think no one in this world would dare to have other thoughts."
"Yuan Zhi ah"
Xu Shu's words.
The fanaticism in his eyes made Jiang Xuan stunned. He immediately understood what he meant. He smiled helplessly and said, "Don't say these words again in the future."
"Yes."
Xu Shu nodded somewhat unwillingly.
He didn't know, the prince clearly had enough strength and prestige, so why didn't he become emperor?
Since he was born.
I don't know how many times I tried.
But without exception, the princes had no intention of rebelling and overthrowing the rule of the Dawu Dynasty.
He ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor.
Xu Shu couldn't understand this.
But since the prince did not want to rebel, he had to hold it in even though he was unwilling.
"My king."
Seeing Xu Shu's unwilling look, Jiang Xuan's expression also became a little complicated.
His tone was slightly heavy as he said, "I made a promise to someone."
This statement.
Xu Shu was startled, and immediately thought of something, and smiled bitterly, "So that's it."
Xu Shu could guess it without even thinking about it.
What is this promise.
To whom did the prince make this promise?
"Pity."
Xu Shu collected his thoughts and murmured with some regret: "If not for this, with the prince's current strength, within three months, he would be able to overthrow the rule of the Dawu Dynasty and ascend the throne to become emperor."
“Within five years.”
"The two dynasties of Dali and Dawei, the southern Yue and northern barbarians will all be annihilated and the world will be unified."
After he finished speaking, Xu Shu shook his head.
Don't think about it anymore.
Instead, he looked at Jiang Xuan and said, "By the way, Your Majesty, there was a piece of news from the court yesterday about the current Queen Mother, Queen Mother Xiao."
"Ok?"
Jiang Xuan raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and asked in surprise, "What news?"
He was not unfamiliar with Empress Dowager Xiao. When the late emperor led the army to fight, she, as the empress, also went with the army.
Even once.
When the previous emperor was trapped, Jiang Xuan was held back by the Dali Dynasty and was unable to escape to rescue him.
This Empress Dowager Xiao.
Holding a bright white spear, he personally led 800 cavalrymen to rescue the late emperor from the midst of thousands of troops.
She deserves the title of heroine.
"Two days ago."
"Heibingtai discovered that this Empress Dowager Xiao has a large number of warriors serving under her, including many upper third-grade warriors, masters, and many in the Vajra realm."
"There are even several who have reached the Profound Realm."
As Xu Shu said this, his expression gradually became serious.
He said in a deep voice: "Even, Black Ice Platform has sensed the presence of the Celestial Realm aura, but in order to avoid being detected, Black Ice Platform did not conduct an in-depth investigation and has not yet confirmed it."
Several of them pointed to the mysterious realm.
But it wouldn't be enough to attract Xu Shu's attention.
But if Empress Dowager Xiao has a warrior at the Celestial Realm, she would have to take him seriously.
Celestial Realm.
One sword can break three thousand armors.
Every move and every style can even cause changes in the celestial phenomena, so it is called the Celestial Realm.
What can be said is.
As long as the gods do not appear, the celestial realm is the strongest in martial arts.
And warriors at the Heavenly Man Realm have not appeared for decades.
Of course.
This does not mean that there is no heavenly realm in the world.
But these people in the celestial realm either hide themselves from the world and only seek the realm of immortals on land.
Or it exists as a foundation.
"It seems that Empress Dowager Xiao."
After Xu Shu finished speaking, Jiang Xuan sneered and said, "She is demonstrating to me. Otherwise, why didn't Black Ice Platform notice anything unusual over the years? Why did they find out that there are many warriors serving under her in the past few days?"
Jiang Xuan didn't believe that these warriors under Empress Dowager Xiao were recruited only in the past few days.
After all, this person's identity is mysterious. When she led the army to fight in person with the late emperor, several mysterious and powerful men appeared under her command to protect her in secret.
"Your Majesty means"
Upon hearing this, Xu Shu's pupils shrank slightly.
Somewhat shocked, he asked, "Empress Dowager Xiao knows about the existence of the Black Ice Platform?"
Jiang Xuan nodded and said, "Although the existence of the Black Ice Platform is secret, it is only known to ordinary people. Those vassal kings also know something about it."
but.
It is obvious that Empress Dowager Xiao not only knew about the existence of the Black Ice Platform, but it is very likely that she even knew the identities of the Black Ice Platform members she had placed in Chang'an City.
This left Jiang Xuan no choice but to give in.
Let’s take another look at this mysterious Empress Dowager Xiao.
"Send the message to Pei Kan."
After Jiang Xuan pondered for a moment, he instructed Xu Shu, "Have him secretly investigate the identity of Empress Dowager Xiao. Remember not to alert the enemy."
Pei Kan is one of the sixteen commanders of the Black Ice Terrace.
Refers to the cultivation level in the Xuan realm.
After he was born, he was sent to Chang'an to deliver all the news in the court to Jiang Xuan.
"correct."
Without waiting for Xu Shu to take orders.
Jiang Xuan added: "Tell Heibingtai to pay more attention to Ning He during this period of time."
This girl Ning He.
But he is his first and only disciple in this world, and he has inherited his mantle, so no accidents should happen.
After all this time.
The water in the Dawu Dynasty has become turbid.
Many evil spirits showed up, like rats in the darkness, spying on the Dawu Dynasty.
although.
Even though Ning He was no match for Prince Jin and was defeated, Prince Jin would not dare to kill her.
But there might be some crazy guys who want to use Ning He's death to enrage themselves and make the waters of the Dawu Dynasty even more muddy.
For example, the White Lotus Sect.
The White Lotus Sect, which even dared to assassinate himself, naturally would also dare to attack Ning He, that girl.
