The atmosphere in Linzi is very strange.

The protesting scholars were violently dispersed by the palace guards.

The two leaders, Zhong Li and Du Ping, were taken away.

The notice posted stated the royal family's approach...

They actually wanted to take Zhong Li into the palace, and if she behaved well, she would be crowned as the queen...

The crowd who were watching the show wanted to curse but didn't dare to. The big families in Linzi quietly placed the statue of Fengdu Emperor in their houses and maintained a tacit silence.

As the saying goes, the first rafter to stick out will rot first. Everyone is waiting for a leader.

As for who the leader is, it is of course the one enshrined on the altar.

As everyone knows, the people under the command of the Emperor of Fengdu are all demons and monsters from the underworld, so it is best to take action after dark.

In the underworld, the meeting hall on Mount Luofeng also fell into an eerie silence.

Zhong Kui and Zhong Shubai knelt in front of the hall.

Putting aside the "explanation" to Zhong Kui, they were very angry that Zhong Li was kidnapped like this.

Emperor Qi II might think this was a gift, but in their eyes, it was a humiliation!

Several think tanks gathered together and looked at each other in confusion.

Qin Guang scratched his head and smiled bitterly.

"What the hell is this operation?"

In the three-ring plan of the underworld, Zhong Li and Du Ping were supposed to lay the foundation of public opinion, Meng Yu was supposed to hold back Confucius, a group of ghosts from the underworld would "visit" the major families in Linzi at night, and Yu Qin would enter the palace to show his power and teach Emperor Qi II a lesson.

Not to mention how harmful it is, but at least it is very insulting.

Adding fuel to the fire that was about to ignite in Da Qi was enough for the Zhong father and son to vent their anger.

Kong Hanan once vaguely revealed to them that there is a big chess game in this world, and if Buddhism is included, there may be more than one game.

This is evident from the fact that the monks and nuns in the Linzi State Temple have remained silent until now.

Everyone in the underworld knew that Da Qi was doomed, and they didn't want to intervene rashly and be the final pusher.

But things went too smoothly.

Confucius is no longer in the center...

All the major families replaced their statues with those of Fengdu Emperor...

They don't even need to add firewood...

When Emperor II of Qi abducted Zhong Li, it was like dancing on a pile of firewood with an oil jar in one hand and a torch in the other.

Go ahead, or you might get yourself into trouble.

Don’t go. Zhong Li was kidnapped. This is a slap in the face of the underworld.

Although Zhong Li has no friendship with the underworld, her brother and father both work in the underworld, so it is impossible for the underworld not to make a statement.

It's quite evil.

Coroner Ying Si poked Yu Qin.

"Your son's skill... is quite unique. The royal education of your Qi State is really amazing."

When Ying Si was alive, the Qin State had already shown signs of prosperity. After Ying Si's son succeeded to the throne, he even united with other princes and almost destroyed the Qi State.

Therefore, Ying Si had complicated feelings towards Jiang Xiaobai, who later destroyed the Qin State.

On the one hand, I admire him, but on the other hand, I feel a little disgusted.

Seize the opportunity and make fun of it.

Yu Qin's beard twitched, and countless figures on the fiery red dragon robes were jumping up and down.

"I don't have such a stupid son. I wonder if his mother cheated on me."

Just as Zhong Kui was about to speak, Zhong Shubai pulled him back and he fell to the ground in front of Yu Qin.

"Your Majesty, although I was a minor official during my lifetime, I received your grace and was promoted to county magistrate. Although I have made some mistakes in my life, I have lived up to your grace and served my people well. I even died in office. Now, both Zhong's father and son have perished for the Great Qi, leaving only one daughter. Your Majesty, please help me!"

Yu Qin quickly moved away.

"I am no longer the emperor, and I am just a minister in the same palace as you. Brother Zhong, there is no need to do this."

After saying that, he waved his sleeves and said to Qin Guangdao.

"Qin Jijiu, I don't care about that rebellious son anymore, but I will do whatever you want."

Zhong Shubai bowed to Qin Guang again.

"Jiujiu, since joining the underworld, I have been diligent and conscientious, never transgressing the rules. Even when I miss my family, I never leave the underworld to visit them. I know there are differences between humans and ghosts, but now only the youngest daughter of the Zhong family remains. If you are unable to make a decision, I will have no choice but to consult the Lord."

Qin Guang sighed and rubbed his face.

"Okay, no need to say more!"

"Your Majesty has his own affairs, so there's no need to disturb him. It's not that I can't make a decision, but before we take action, we have to consider every aspect carefully..."

"Since the Second Emperor of Qi is so inhumane, we have no choice but to let him see the devil!"

"Send the message, have Captain Li come to see me, and all the troops be ready!"

The sixth-rank title set by Kong Hanan certainly cannot be just an empty title.

He also gave these titles different powers accordingly.

Qin Guang is now an earl. In addition to the corresponding powers of a chief priest, he also obtains the abilities of guidance, amplification and treatment.

In other words, he can also create a "portal" and release "amplification aura" and "healing aura".

Linzi does not have a city god yet, but as long as Qin Guang arrives there, he can open the transmission channel to the underworld.

"Also, have the Five Thieves keep a close eye on the group of ghost cultivators in the Netherworld space passage..."

He couldn't guess what kind of chess the Heavenly Court was going to play.

However, it is foreseeable that the Buddhist sect will most likely take the opportunity to cause trouble for the underworld.

When the monks from the Jiuku Temple sought an alliance with Buddhism in Jiange County, the City God of Jiange County heard it clearly.

On the Heavenly Court side, four ghost cultivators carrying the Book of Life and Death have joined the Underworld, and they have also applied to fight on the front lines.

A total of four captains were sent by Kong Hanan to the tunnel that the five bandits had dug before, to fight guerrilla warfare with the Nether Realm.

As for whether they would fight guerrilla warfare or how they would fight guerrilla warfare, Kong Hanan didn't care.
