Chapter 408: Speed is of the essence
"No wonder he wanted to send such a big gift. He wanted to suppress the Qin family in Wuzhou and support the master!" Gongsun Yun said.
"Does it need to be warned? After all, the Crown Prince is raising a mysterious master. This matter is not a big deal, but it is not a small matter either." The Grand Master bowed slightly and asked for instructions.
"The Crown Prince is the one chosen by Elder Jiang. He is most likely to be the king. Even if he keeps one or two masters, it is nothing. Besides, a mere little master cannot cause any trouble. Jiang Guangquan is sensible. Why should I be the bad guy? It is better to be ignorant!" Gongsun Yun said and glanced at the gift list in his hand.
"As for Qin Jianmei..." The Grand Master bowed slightly again, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself.
"Qin Jianmei is Qin Jianmei, and the Qin family of Wuzhou is the Qin family of Wuzhou. The prince wants to suppress the Qin family and make an example of them. This matter is a struggle for secular power. It has nothing to do with our Tianyan Sect, and it is not a bad rule. But you should tell the prince that Wu Jinhe had better not take action." Gongsun Yun said.
"Disciple, I understand!" The Grand Master bowed slightly and prepared to retreat.
"By the way, send a message to Zhuge Yunjin in Xiyunzhou and ask him to pass a message to Qin Ziling, saying that it was his teacher who told him not to interfere in the affairs of the Qin family in Wuzhou." Gongsun Yun stopped the grandmaster.
"Qin Ziling?" The Grand Master was slightly startled, but he quickly bowed and said, "Disciple obeys your command."
After the Grand Master left, he went all the way to the Prince's Mansion.
The prince received him personally.
"My master asked me to tell His Highness that he will not interfere in Your Highness's suppression of the Qin family in Wuzhou, but Master Wu Xuan had better not take any action." The Grand Master said.
"As for the Qin family in Wuzhou, there is no need for Mr. Wu to take action. He just needs to come forward to intimidate the various forces in Wuzhou." said the prince.
The Grand Master nodded, then stood up to take his leave. However, he hadn't taken a few steps when he stamped his feet again and turned his head to ask, "Have you heard of Qin Ziling from Xiyunzhou, Your Highness?"
The prince was slightly stunned.
"He is Elder Lai's registered disciple. He entered the wind and thunder barrier last time . Not only did he escape, but he also made a breakthrough in his cultivation and became a mid-level grandmaster. By the way, he is a member of the Qin family of Wuzhou and is still very young. Elder Lai meant for him not to interfere in the affairs of the Qin family of Wuzhou." said the great grandmaster.
"Thank you Mr. Gu for telling me." The prince smiled and bowed to express his gratitude.
"Your Highness did not tell me this. Your Highness found it out on his own." The Grand Master bowed in return and then walked away.
After the Grand Master left, the smile on the prince's face gradually disappeared, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
"I never thought that the Qin family actually has such an outstanding disciple in Xiyun Province , and he is Lai Yinuan's registered disciple. If we really miss him, he might become the second Qin Jianmei. Humph, a bunch of useless things, they didn't even find out such important information." said the prince.
"Your Highness, would you like me to send someone to take him away..." An old eunuch with a pale face and no beard stepped forward and asked in a low voice.
"There's no need to go through so much trouble. Isn't Earl Qingyuan in the southwest leading his troops to fight against Nandingzhou? Aren't Xiyunzhou and Nandingzhou adjacent to each other?
You can order the Earl of Qingyuan to recruit him into the army. After all, he is Lai Yi Nuan's registered disciple, so he should be given the title of dying for the country. If Lai Yi Nuan has the ability, let him seek revenge on the traitor Wang Lang and the Corpse Demon Sect!" The prince waved his hand, with a sinister and vicious look on his face.
"If your Highness does this, it might not be good if Lai Yi Nuan becomes suspicious." The blue-robed scholar, Wu Jinhe, said while waving a gold-embossed paper fan.
"Lai Yi Nuan is no longer the Lai Yi Nuan of the past. Now that you can rival him, why should I have to act according to his wishes? Besides, we did this openly, so what can he do without any evidence?
On the contrary, if this guy escapes or reveals some clues, if Lai Yi Nuan finds out something, it will give him a handle and we will have a hard time exonerating ourselves. "The prince said.
"Your Highness, you have a good idea. This is an open conspiracy! No matter what Lai Yi Nuan can find out, he can only vent his anger on Wang Lang and the Corpse Demon Sect." The blue-clothed scholar said with a smile.
"Your Highness is wise!" the old eunuch said quickly with a look of admiration.
"Go ahead and tell Earl Qingyuan to do it more cleanly." The prince waved his hand.
The old eunuch responded quickly and then retreated.
"Your Highness, what are you planning to do against the Qin family of Wuzhou?" After the old eunuch left, the blue-robed scholar, Wu Jinhe, asked while waving a gold-plated paper fan.
Today, Wu Jinhe looks more elegant and free-spirited, as well as more unfathomable.
"According to the spies' reports, the Qin family has made a lot of and has secretly sent out a lot of people. So, I wanted to take action a long time ago, but Master's Thunder Tempering is a big deal, so I kept delaying it.
Now that you have successfully tempered the thunder and become a master of the Mysterious Realm, and the Supervisor has also agreed, I think there is no need to delay any further. There is no time to lose, so I will order the people in Wuzhou to take action tomorrow. I want to let those people in Wuzhou know as soon as possible what will happen if they do not submit to me!" said the prince.
"Speed is of the essence in war, so tomorrow is tomorrow. Anyway, I am already a master of my own accord, and I don't think the Qin family can do anything to help me." Wu Jinhe said with confidence.
"It's a pity that the Tianyan Sect has regulations and the Supervisor has also passed on the message. Otherwise, with the master here, we wouldn't need to go through all this trouble!" said the prince.
"Haha!" Wu Jinhe laughed triumphantly when he heard that.
Soon, orders were passed down from the Prince's Mansion.
The second day.
Seven Yingmangs pulled a chariot as big as a palace from the Prince's Mansion into the sky, heading towards Wuzhou.
Yingmang is a giant yellow python with a pair of fleshy wings. It is a low-level fifth-grade exotic beast.
It is said that this Yingmang carries the blood of the ancient Yinglong. Not only can it flap its flesh wings to fly, but when it flaps its flesh wings, there is also clouds and mist. From a distance, it looks like a real dragon flying in the clouds.
The huge chariot pulled by the seven Yingmangs was naturally the chariot used by the prince for travel.
In front, behind, on both sides of the chariot, there were hundreds of armored guards riding on flying birds to escort it.
The lowest level of cultivation among these one hundred guards and followers is a great martial artist in the late bone refining stage or a great Qi refining master in the late true essence stage, and nearly half of them are masters.
The sight of the seven-headed python riding on the clouds and pulling a palace-like chariot was terrifying enough, and there were also hundreds of highly skilled guards riding on exotic birds escorting them around.
I don't know how many people were alarmed as we flew over the capital.
…
It was a sunny day with a gentle breeze across the lake.
Qin Ziling and Xiao Qing took a break from their busy lives and drank tea while boating on Yunluo Lake.
Just when the two were feeling comfortable, a small bird with an emerald green body as big as jade flew onto Xiao Qing's shoulder. It was the black kingfisher that brought the message.
"Zhuge Yunjin is here, and he specifically wants to see you." Xiao Qing read the letter and said to Qin Ziling.
