Chapter 273 Why are you asking about other people's affairs?
“Can you do that?”
Zhou Yi glanced in the direction of the Meizhou border.
The Meizhou border was still shrouded in fog and there were no soldiers guarding it.
The purpose of Dayu's expedition to eliminate demons was to demonstrate the country's prestige and to strike a blow against the arrogance of the sects. He did not intend to affect the normal lives of Dayu's people, nor did he want to cause panic.
Therefore, Dayu's expeditionary force would not do anything like blocking the border.
But this does not mean that Dayu is kind-hearted.
The border of the wide-open Kongmen is a fishing net, waiting for the monks from the sect to get in!
If he had not seen with his own eyes a monk from the sect being caught and dragged away on the spot, he would probably have foolishly led his men in!
"This...is not a difficult thing. However, Brother Zhou, you also know that now is a critical time. I can't help you sneak across for no reason. If the higher-ups hold you accountable, I'm afraid Zhuozhou's affairs will be hindered."
Zhou Yi suddenly realized, “Don’t worry, Mr. Shen, we will pay the corresponding fees and will never embarrass you.”
"Brother Zhou, you are joking. I still have the right to speak on this matter. In this matter... our Tianxu Tower also made some mistakes."
Mistake?
Zhou Yi noticed the key words in Shen Ziqing's words, but did not ask, "Then I'll have to trouble Master Shen to arrange it."
"Okay - just wait a moment, someone will be here to pick you up soon."
The light of the talisman dimmed, and Zhou Yi's eyes flickered for a moment before he reactivated the talisman in his hand. Soon, an old voice came from the talisman.
"when?"
"Elder, I found out something about Tianxu Tower."
“…”
After a short silence, an angry curse came from the other end of the talisman, "Are you sick? Why are you investigating Tianxu Tower's affairs? What if they don't cooperate with us?"
Zhou Yi felt very aggrieved after being criticized by the elder.
Tianxu Tower is the financial sponsor of their Yuanluo Sect. He was so stupid that he went to investigate Tianxu Tower. However, Shen Ziqing accidentally revealed some information. He couldn't pretend not to hear it. What if someone let it slip on purpose and was hinting at him? What should he do?
"Elder, Master Shen revealed some information. The reason why Meizhou became the target of Dayu's expedition this time was due to the mistake made by Tianxu Tower."
Hearing that it was Shen Ziqing who revealed it, the elder of Yuanluo Sect did not continue to output, "Mistake? What do you think it was?"
Zhou Yi paused and lowered his voice, "The ancient cultivator who caused trouble in Meizhou and attacked the Jindan constables before may be related to Tianxu Tower!"
On the other side of the talisman, the elder of Yuanluo Sect fell silent.
The people who hated Dayu the most in this world were the ancient monks from the Great Wilderness.
Dayu not only ended the era when sects were king, but also cut off the Taoist tradition of the ancient sects with his Taoist pillars.
So when they heard that an ancient monk had resurrected in Meizhou and was frantically attacking the Jindan-stage detectives, they were not surprised. They just thought that the ancient monk was courting death and did not think any deeper about it.
But now that Shen Ziqing has revealed this, there is a lot more to speculate about.
You must know that Tianxu Tower has a criminal record of instigating Emperor Ji Lie to overthrow Dayu's Taoist tradition and establish a new dynasty.
"I understand. Be careful when you move in Meizhou and see if there is any chance to find the ancient monk."
"good--"
On the other side of Tianxu Tower in Ganzhou, Shen Ziqing leisurely picked up another talisman and contacted the soldier monk who was responsible for keeping an eye on Zhou Yi and others.
"My lords, I have already made arrangements with Yuanluo Sect. Please change your clothes."
"I understand."
Shen Ziqing put his hands behind his head and looked at the map of the world in front of him. Shen Ziqing laughed leisurely.
"Everyone, don't regret your move."
…
"Brother Li - you look happy?"
Li Yanmo, who was sitting with his legs crossed, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Is it that obvious?"
"Yes, you have been smiling since a while ago, and the corners of your mouth have never shrunk," Leng Ningshuang pointed at the corners of her mouth and said unhappily, "Brother Li, you are really too mean to share your good news."
What Leng Ningshuang was referring to was naturally the matter of pushing the sect registration system to the entire universe in one step, inducing millions of Taoist sects to actively seek registration.
Originally Leng Ningshuang still felt that her father and the ministers were thinking too much, but no one would keep laughing because of an astronomical debt that could scare a super sect.
So Leng Ningshuang could only believe that everything was in Li Yanmo's plan.
"Give you spiritual fruit."
Leng Ningshuang took the fruit, and after a long silence, he took a vicious bite and took off most of it.
Li Yanmo was a little confused and didn't understand what Leng Ningshuang was angry about, so he had to change the subject, "So Brother Leng, you..."
"Don't call me Brother Leng, that title has already been taken away by my father!"
"What about Princess Leng?"
"...Brother Li, I feel like there's a thick barrier between us."
Li Yanmo rolled his eyes, "Then what do you want me to call you?"
Leng Ningshuang's eyes rolled and she twirled her hair around her ears coyly, "Madam...how is it?"
"Mrs. Leng? You are already married? Is your father's position as prime minister so secure that he needs to marry off his daughter in order to escape?" Li Yanmo's face was full of surprise.
"... Damn it, my dad said that he would marry me to a rich and powerful man, so why not give me two pieces of barbecued pork?" Leng Ningshuang raised her eyes, and lay sideways on the chair as if she had given up, and ate the spiritual fruit bite by bite.
"Oh~"
"You can laugh if you want to," Leng Ningshuang rolled her eyes, "I probably can't beat you now."
"What's so funny about this?" Li Yanmo said with a strange look on his face. "No matter what I say, I don't think barbecued pork is more important than you."
Leng Ningshuang was startled. After a brief pause, she adjusted her lying position and turned her back to Li Yanmo. "Really? I'll tell my dad later."
"Uh...ok?"
Huang Shangshang, who was sitting on the side, had a subtle expression. She looked at Li Yanmo, then at Leng Ningshuang. After hesitating for a while, she decided to pretend that she saw nothing.
Leng Ningshuang's carriage magic weapon is much more advanced than Yao Mengyi's, so it didn't take long for Li Yanmo and the other two to reach the border of Meizhou.
As the oldest family in Dayu, and the head of the family is the current prime minister, Leng Ningshuang's carriage magic weapon is particularly conspicuous. As soon as it appeared, it attracted countless gazes, but those gazes quickly disappeared.
At some other time, they might have had some ideas.
But now Dayu is on an expedition to fight demons, and the expeditionary army led by the princes and princesses is in Meizhou. No one wants to do anything fancy at this time so that Dayu has an excuse to expand the scale of this expedition.
Maybe, the prime minister's daughter appeared in public so ostentatiously just to do some tricks to give Dayu an excuse.
But he also took the initiative to show goodwill.
Just as the carriage entered Meizhou, several figures flew out from the fog, stopped in front of the carriage, clasped their fists and bowed respectfully.
"Princess Leng——"
