Gao Guan revealed a serious expression. Finally, he shook his head and said, "It's not appropriate!"
"Oh!" Qing Zhu slowly walked back to his seat. He stared at Gao Guan and asked, "How is it not appropriate?"
Gao Guan calmly said, "The Xiahou Family is the Empress' paternal family after all. Fifty million soldiers is not a lot, but it is not a small number either. Those that can go with Linghu Douzhong at this time should be Linghu Douzhong's direct subordinates. Their strength should not be weak, so it is not appropriate for the Empress to control them."
Qing Zhu was not worried about this at all. "You do not need to worry about this. We have our own considerations."
Gao Guan said, "The other families are not willing to see Linghu Douzhong fall. The Netherworld is Niu Youde's territory and it can also be said to be Cao Man's territory. Niu Youde only has a mere several tens of thousands of soldiers. If Linghu Douzhong were to bring an army and suppress him, Niu Youde would not be able to stop him. This would also be a great threat to Cao Man. Niu Youde would not want to see this situation and Cao Man would not want to see it either. Once Niu Youde colludes with the Xiahou Family or the other forces, Linghu Douzhong would not be able to hold his ground in the Netherworld. It would be a waste for him to go. "
Qing Zhu casually said, "What if we transfer Niu Youde away? As long as Niu Youde is not in the Netherworld, there will be no legitimate opportunity to intervene. "
Gao Guan said, "What is the difference between this and Your Majesty directly taking in Linghu Douzhong? Dare I ask Your Majesty, why does Linghu Douzhong not directly submit to Your Majesty? This subject will say something unpleasant. Niu Youde listens to the Empress, but the Empress may not be able to control Linghu Douzhong's fifty million soldiers. Linghu Douzhong's concubines have not been lacking in enmity with the Empress. The Empress' temperament is a bit straightforward! "The implication was that it was easy to be used by others.
Qing Zhu pondered for a moment and said, "Are you saying that we cannot agree to Linghu Douzhong's conditions?"
Gao Guan said, "This subject's meaning is to directly exterminate them and end all troubles."
"You killing thing, you only know how to kill, shut up!" Qing Zhu rolled his eyes and shouted. He realized that he didn't ask anything and couldn't get a better idea. He could only follow his own method and revealed a sly smile, "Shangguan, inform Linghu Dou Zhong. Tell him that without Niu Youde, that audacious fellow, to take the thunder for him, he won't be able to stand firm in the Netherworld. As long as he can make Niu Youde relent, we will agree to him!"
"Yes!" Shangguan Qing replied according to the order, but he clicked his tongue in his heart. It seemed that His Majesty intended to support a group of people for His Highness, and this Niu Youde benefited from it.
However, Qing Zhu's mind was obviously not on this. He leaned on the chair and patted the armrest gently, frowning and saying in a serious tone, "There is still no response from the Demon Subduing Pagoda on Boss Fo's side. I have made such a big fuss, but I don't see Old Bai taking any action … Gao Guan, is there anything unusual on the Ten Elements Palace's side?"
Gao Guan said, "I don't see any reaction, everything is the same as before!"
Qing Zhu fell silent …
Linghu Dou Zhong, who was on the way, also fell silent after receiving Shangguan Qing's message. He then reported the situation to a few of his trusted subordinates.
One of the generals asked, "What does Qing Zhu mean? Do we need Niu Youde's permission to stand firm in the Netherworld? "
Linghu Dou Zhong smiled bitterly, "The meaning is very simple. He wants us to be controlled by Niu Youde and become his subordinates."
Another general said in shock, "Are you kidding? Niu Youde wants to control us? How can he control us with that little strength of his? He can be blown away by a breath. "
Linghu Dou Zhong sighed, "Since Qing Zhu has said so, do we still have a choice now? Furthermore, with Niu Youde dealing with the relationship between us and Heaven Valley Palace, it is not a bad thing. We have offended that person from Heaven Valley Palace in the past, the Netherworld is under the direct control of Heaven Valley Palace! "
All the generals had a helpless look.
Middle Constellation Palace, on the lakeside, Zhuge Qing lay quietly on a stone platform.
The lake water reflected the blue sky and white clouds. Wild birds were frolicking about, and as the wind blew, the person lying there, her dress fluttering in the wind. Her long hair swayed in the wind, and her beautiful face was faintly discernible.
In this miniature world, Qin Weiwei, whose words carried enormous weight, could no longer be compared to the past. Whether it was her attire or her bearing, she was graceful and luxurious. As she looked around, she had a dignified bearing, and her aura was rather strong. The gaze in her beautiful eyes was somewhat profound as she stared at the person lying quietly and motionlessly.
To be honest, she didn't like Zhuge Qing. It was in a woman's nature to dislike women who seduced their own men. Every time she thought about how this woman had done that with her own man, she would feel uncomfortable. Thus, she almost never came here, unwilling to meet Zhuge Qing face to face. She even felt that Yun Zhiqiu had done a good job and should not have let her go. Thus, during the many years that Zhuge Qing had been imprisoned here, she almost never met her face to face. The reason she came here was to see how beautiful this woman was, to be able to make her man act on her. After seeing her, she realized that she was indeed very, very beautiful. She couldn't compare to her, so she never came here again.
However, when she saw the woman's current fate, she felt an indescribable sorrow in her heart. She sighed to herself, 'If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have done it in the first place!'
At first, she thought that Yun Zhiqiu couldn't tolerate Zhuge Qing anymore. However, after confirming with Miao Yi, she realized that it was indeed Miao Yi's idea to sentence Zhuge Qing to death.
Beside her, Qin Xi's expression was calm. She tilted her head slightly and said, "Let's begin!"
Receiving her signal, Fang Liao took out a Blaze Resinous Crystal and ignited it. A ball of flames fell onto the stone platform. Whoosh! The person on the stone platform was instantly engulfed by the flames.
Qin Weiwei's bright eyes reflected the light of the flames. She couldn't tear her gaze away from the engulfing flames for a long time. She muttered, "Why did Milord do this?"
Qin Xi shook her head and said, "I don't know. He didn't mention any reason. He directly informed the guards to take action."
Qin Weiwei slowly tilted her head to look at her. "I remember telling Father before that Zhuge Qing's cultivation was getting higher and higher here. I was afraid that something might happen to her. At that time, Father seemed to have told me not to worry about it, and that he would handle this matter! Mother, could it be that Father was worried that something would happen to me and affect me, so you guys did something to it? "
Qin Xi sighed. "You're overthinking it. Milord must have his reasons for doing this. Who would dare to do something like this? Once Milord is angered, who would be able to bear the consequences? "
"I hope my words didn't harm her …" Qin Weiwei murmured. Her bright eyes once again looked towards the raging flames. Finally, she instructed, "After collecting her body … find a good place far away from the Middle Constellations Palace to bury her!" She then flew away in a flash, unwilling to stay here any longer.
After sending her off with her gaze, Qin Xi's eyes were filled with doubt. She obviously knew that Yang Qing had done something, but she didn't understand. How could a simple report like that incite Miao Yi to immediately order Zhuge Qing, whom he had been watching over for so many years, to die?
Purgatory, Immeasurable Star Sacred Palace. In front of the window of the loft, Yang Qing was also silent. He gazed into the distant sky, not saying a word for a long time.
Naturally, he knew about Zhuge Qing's death. He was finally rid of her, and it made him feel a sense of relief. The result was just as he had expected. However, Miao Yi's decisiveness … was so ruthless that it made him a little afraid. From the feedback of the message, Miao Yi didn't seem to have made any unnecessary considerations.
Yang Qing snapped out of his daze and took out the Star Bell. It was a message from Qin Xi.
Qin Xi: Zhuge Qing's body is being cremated. Weiwei suspects that you did something to it.
Yang Qing's expression tensed up. Did you say something wrong? Didn't I tell you not to let her know about it?
Qin Xi: You're thinking too much. Weiwei said she told you about Zhuge Qing before, but you told her not to worry about it. You said you would handle it. That's why she started suspecting you. Don't worry. I've helped you smooth things over. I just don't understand. How could a simple sentence send her to her death? Zhuge Qing's singing is normal. As far as I know, it's not like Miao Yi doesn't know that Zhuge Qing often sings in the Star Palace. I don't see anything wrong with it!
Yang Qing: The matter is already in the past. There's no need for you to know so much. You only need to know that Weiwei isn't the only woman by Miao Yi's side. Weiwei must be a woman that Miao Yi can rest assured about. She must be a woman that Miao Yi can rest assured about no matter what she does. Zhuge Qing's cultivation is getting higher and higher. Her ambition will always grow along with her strength. She might not be able to hold herself back in the small world at any time. This has already become Weiwei's biggest worry. I must get rid of her!
Qin Xi: I understand your efforts. I just don't understand why you won't tell me. Is it because I'm not trustworthy in your eyes? Is it because of Feng Beichen?
Yang Qing was silent for a moment. Now that things had come to this, he had no choice but to relent. 'I more or less understand Miao Yi's temper. He is a decisive person, and has a ruthless side to him. He actually doesn't have any feelings for Zhuge Qing. He also knows that Zhuge Qing has always wanted to escape. What she cherishes is nothing more than a one-night stand. That's why he tolerated her … It's precisely because Zhuge Qing sings normally, but the timing of our report was abnormal. At that time, Miao Yi was gambling with the lives of tens of thousands of his brothers. It's very likely that something unexpected would happen. Too many lives were involved, and he was under a lot of pressure. At that time, he wouldn't care about a one-night stand with a woman he doesn't have any feelings for. Nothing is more important than the matter before him. If we add 'climbing up to the roof' to Zhuge Qing's singing, then he will clearly sense Zhuge Qing's abnormality. He can clearly feel Zhuge Qing's strong desire to escape. At that time, he will definitely not tolerate any changes in his backyard … I bet that his decisiveness will completely put an end to this matter that has been dragging on for so many years. I gave it a try, and sure enough, it's even more straightforward than I imagined!
"Climbing up to the roof …" Qin Xi muttered to herself. She turned to look at the raging flames by the lakeside. She finally understood why Yang Qing emphasized those few words when he gave his instructions. It turned out that those words could also send someone to their deaths. The Star Bell in her hand replied, 'Sometimes, you can make people feel afraid. I hope Miao Yi will never find out the truth. Otherwise, how could he let you go?!'
After the two of them ended their communication, Yang Qing let out a long sigh of relief. He was a little touched by Qin Xi's words. He muttered to himself as he slowly walked to the side of the table, and slowly said, "Brush, ink, paper, and inkstone!"
Qing Ju immediately stepped forward to fiddle with them.
After the ink was ground, Yang Qing unrolled a roll of paper and dipped the brush into the ink. Then, the brush landed on the paper, and he wrote four powerful words on it: Retreat after success!
