Chapter 208: Just dry bones in a grave!
"I really underestimated you, Li Xingyun!"
Li Maozhen snorted secretly in his heart, but his expression remained calm. The Qi Kingdom today is no longer his Qi Kingdom.
It seems that it still has the name of Qi State, but in reality it is only in name!
"hehe."
Li Maozhen couldn't help but chuckle. What was the point of all his efforts over the years?
When the disgusting poisonous insect crawled into his mouth, he was still thinking about his country of Qi! After wandering for half a lifetime, he was wounded in no less than ten places, but he came back with nothing?
Li Maozhen glanced coldly at the bad guys holding swords and felt disgusted by the scene before him from the bottom of his heart. He could not tolerate his era ending like this.
At this time, Li Yunji naturally knew the reluctance in her brother's heart, but she had no choice. Guanzhong had finally got some time to recuperate, and if it went through another civil war, why would the people suffer?
What's more, Li Xingyun is the orthodox of the Tang Dynasty, and he is the one who will end the war in the world!
"I'm sorry, brother." Even though Li Yunji's eyes were filled with reluctance, she definitely did not hesitate when it came time to make a decision!
Li Maozhen said nothing, but just sat back in the main seat, his expression returning to its cold and silent state.
Shangguan Yunque, who had been holding the hilt of the knife and staring at Li Maozhen, finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although he had the Marshal as a backup, he would rather avoid taking action if possible. After all, this person's identity was special, and his strength was too strong for him to take down. Such a safe landing was a situation that everyone was happy with.
Raising his palm, Shangguan Yunque smiled faintly and said, "Keep cleaning. Chang'an of the Tang Dynasty should be clean."
"Yes, my lord!"
The figures disappeared as they crisscrossed each other, and Shangguan Yunque bowed to Li Yunji and took his leave. Everything seemed to be under control.
……
Whoosh!
The eagle flew into the sky and landed on the young man's shoulder.
After taking the secret letter, Li Xingyun frowned slightly as he looked at the contents on it. What was going on? How could such a proud Li Maozhen endure this?
To be honest, what Li Xingyun did in Chang'an was already like shitting on Li Maozhen's head, but he actually endured it.
Although all of Li Maozhen's methods were strangled in the cradle with his arrangements in Chang'an, Li Maozhen actually resisted the urge to take action. Even he could not help but look at him with awe at his character.
He is worthy of being one of the Three Kings.
Li Xingyun's faint smile suddenly changed, and he blurted out, "Not good!"
"Your Highness, what's the matter?" The bad guys behind him noticed that Li Xingyun's expression changed and stepped forward one after another.
Li Xingyun frowned and shouted, "No time to explain, hurry to Chang'an immediately!"
If Li Maozhen didn't bear it, Yuan Tiangang would have killed him, but he endured it now, and that was the biggest problem. He hadn't given up on what he wanted, Longquan! You know, the Miaojiang Holy Gu that represented the clue to Longquan was still in Yunji's hands, so Li Maozhen was very likely to take action against Yunji.
Although Li Maozhen would not kill Yun Ji, Li Xingyun did not dare to take the risk. He spurred his horse and whipped it, and suddenly a fiery figure appeared on the official road.
……
Seven days later, at Prince Qi’s Mansion.
Li Maozhen, who was sitting on a chair, poured tea by himself and said calmly, "Why, do you still want me to invite you out?"
"This subordinate greets King Qi!"
A figure walked out of the darkness and then knelt on one knee.
Li Maozhen looked at this person, frowned, and raised his head and asked, "How many years?"
The figure replied, "Twenty-one years. It has been twenty-one years since you saved my family."
Li Maozhen rubbed his brows and suddenly smiled, "It's been so long. This time, I didn't intend to let you take action, but someone calculated the heavens and the earth and played me like a monkey. All the accumulation of decades has gone to waste and it's all in vain."
The figure slowly stood up. It was a foreign man with thick eyebrows and big eyes. He cupped his hands and said, "As long as King Qi gives an order, none of us of the Dangxiang tribe will dare to disobey!"
Li Maozhen's half face was hidden in the darkness. He said calmly: "Everyone knows that I am the shadow guard of Qi country, but they don't know that you are my last confidant."
Li Jiren clasped his fists and said, "If it weren't for King Qi's secret support over the years, I wouldn't be able to control the Dangxiang tribe in Lingxia and other states."
Li Maozhen sighed, "What a pity, Li Jiren. Even if all your Dangxiang people come out in full force, what can they do to Li Xingyun? Guanzhong is now basically under his control. We can only take it step by step."
Li Jiren stepped forward and asked, "What does King Qi mean?"
Li Maozhen waved his hand and said, "You just need to lead the troops to harass Guanzhong and make Li Xingyun exhausted. When I get the Longquan treasure, we can recruit soldiers and horses, and the world can still be conquered."
Li Jiren frowned slightly and said, "King Qi, the news about the Longquan treasure is probably fabricated. After so much time has passed, every upheaval in the world is related to the legendary Longquan treasure. I suspect someone is secretly stirring up trouble and using the people of the world as pawns!"
Li Maozhen sneered and said, "You are right. There is an old man stirring up trouble in secret. However, no matter how powerful he is, he cannot change the trend of the world. There are so many heroes in the world, and he is just a pile of bones in a grave!"
"There is no hero who will not fall, and there is no empire that will not disappear. What does it matter if he can calculate everything in the world? If he can really defy fate, the Li Tang Dynasty will not fall, and the world will not be in chaos!"
Li Maozhen stood up suddenly, looking a little agitated. Li Jiren stared at this scene in a daze, feeling that something was wrong with King Qi's condition...
