In the Holy Palace, the three Saints were silent.
After a long time, Mi Fengdian said, "Fang Sheng, if I'm not mistaken, the Notre-Dame will hold a Holy Will Conference. She might also hold a Holy Will Conference."
Fang Yun nodded.
Feng Shu exclaimed, "Old Man is stupid. He can't figure out how Zong Sheng did it."
Mi Fengdian shook his head and said, "I can't figure it out either. We've underestimated Mr. Mo Ju. "
The two Half-saint incarnations were surprised.
Fang Yun was stunned for a long time. Saint power surged around him. Finally, he nodded and said with a smile, "Okay."
"Fang Sheng, do you know what Zong Sheng did?" Mi Fengdian asked curiously. He didn't act like a Half-saint incarnation at all.
This was too shocking. It was far beyond what Half-saint could do.
In the eyes of the two Saints, this was even more difficult than Fang Yun's Illumination of All Worlds.
Fang Yun shook his head and said, "I can only guess. I can't be sure. In fact, I've noticed that the apes have a different attitude toward humans. I just didn't expect Zong Sheng to have planned this for so many years. "
The two Saints looked at Fang Yun and suddenly fell silent.
This matter was far too important.
Especially when the battle between the two of them was at its fiercest.
They could clearly sense that Fang Yun's aura was unstable. He was greatly affected by politics.
Jingguo, the Throne Room.
Jing Jun sat on the Dragon Throne with a frown.
The Empress Dowager still wore a veil and sat beside Jing Jun.
Zhao Hongzhuang, the Great Elder Princess, wore a Juren robe and stood at the end of the row of officials.
All the officials were present in the hall, but no one spoke.
"Dear officials, please come up with an idea. I … I need to continue studying."
Jing Jun looked distressed. He thought that as he grew up, he would be able to take care of politics. However, the situation in Jingguo was getting more and more complicated. He had no ability to participate in the War of Provinces. Now, something bigger had happened. If he forced himself to intervene, it would be self-defeating. He had no choice but to let it go.
The officials looked at each other, speechless.
The Jingguo Imperial Court was already under the control of the Fang Party. Other than that, there were other forces that were on good terms with the Fang Party.
They were all on the same side, but no one dared to speak.
This matter was too important. If he wasn't careful, it could affect his career.
Moreover, no one knew how Zong Sheng did it, and no one knew what to do next.
This was already the matter of the Saints, and it had nothing to do with him!
Therefore, the officials did not say a word. They silently browsed through the rankings, hoping to find a straw to clutch at and solve their current predicament.
After a long time, no one spoke. Left Prime Minister Cao Dean heaved a long sigh and said, "Let Old Man be the villain. The Old Man had already sent a letter to Fang Sheng, asking for his guidance. This matter is related to the internal affairs of Jingguo and the general situation of the human race. Even if it may affect the Battle of Prefectures, we have to ask. "
"How did Fang Sheng respond?"
"No reply," Cao Dean said.
"Cao Xiang, what should we do now?"
"I am the Left Prime Minister, not Half-saint. How would I know?"
Cao Dean's tone was very natural, and the officials nodded.
"I just don't understand how Zong Sheng was able to subdue the three barbarians and the ape race. According to the news, it was the ape race's Half-saint, Ape Bone Saint, who said it himself. How did he get the ape race to agree? I don't understand. "
"We don't understand now. Did he give the ape race great benefits? "
"As long as the ape race is willing to submit to the human race, it's worth it."
"Yes, Ape Territory … is bigger than the entire Saint Origin Continent."
The officials of Jingguo were silent. In fact, they had silently agreed that Zong Sheng was already a Quasi-Saint.
The so-called Quasi-Saint was equivalent to Zhou Wenwang's contribution in saving the human race from the barbarians and demons.
In the history of the human race, only Kong Sheng, Zhou Wenwang, and Fang Yun had achieved the Quasi-Saint level.
Zong Sheng was the fourth.
"Right now, Zong Sheng is probably at the peak of Half-saint. He's infinitely close to becoming a Quasi-Saint, right?" Cao Dean sighed.
The officials of Jingguo continued to remain silent.
If Zong Sheng became a Quasi-Saint early, he would definitely swallow up the government and form his own faction. He might even start a Half-saint war against Fang Yun.
Although there had never been a real Half-saint civil war in the human race, it was still possible.
But that didn't mean it wasn't possible.
Jingguo and Feng State were enough reasons to start a Half-saint war.
"Do you think Zong Sheng has been waiting for Jingguo to start a war against Feng State?" Zhou Junhu asked.
"This … is possible!"
"The war might be part of Zong Sheng's plan. He wants to force Jingguo to take this step. Then, he can use Jingguo as an excuse to attack us after he becomes a Quasi-Saint. "
"But I feel like … something is missing …" Cao Dean said doubtfully.
The officials looked at each other. Suddenly, their eyes lit up.
Zong Sheng hadn't become a Quasi-Saint yet!
Everyone's face was filled with astonishment.
An imperial censor coughed and said, "Before the war, Fang Sheng must have asked us to do something, right?"
Everyone looked at the cabinet members led by Cao Dean.
Cao Dean was silent for a long time. He nodded and said, "Everything happened before the war, so Fang Sheng didn't interfere in the war. Besides, even if we didn't say anything, my colleagues would have guessed it. In fact, all the actions in the past year were planned by Fang Sheng himself. The reason why the cabinet dared to force Gyeongo was because they wanted to complete Fang Sheng's plan step by step. "
"Did Zong Sheng's plan involve Zong Sheng?"
Cao Dean shook his head and said, "Fang Sheng didn't say anything, but I don't believe that he didn't expect it. If I look back now, I can only sigh at Fang Sheng's talent. "
Everyone nodded heavily.
Just now, everyone had realized that if Jingguo didn't force Gyeongo and Zong Sheng, Zong Sheng would probably continue to bide his time and accumulate strength. Then, he would directly become a Quasi-Saint with the contributions of one ape and three barbarians!
Zong Sheng didn't even care about being sealed by Fang Yun's sword formation. He could completely endure until he became a Quasi-Saint!
However, although Fang Yun didn't know what Zong Sheng was doing, he must have vaguely guessed Zong Sheng's intentions. Therefore, he gave Jingguo a lot of new Gongjia technology in advance and made a plan to deal with Gyeongo!
An accident happened. Zong Ganyu thought that she was smart. She wanted to use the war to delay Jingguo and reduce Jingguo's luck. This would slow down Fang Yun's progress to become a Quasi-Saint and buy more time for Zong Sheng.
Jingguo had long been prepared to launch the war, so they beat her at her own game and succeeded.
In the end, the army pointed their swords at Feng Province and successfully forced Zong Sheng to show his trump card before he became a Quasi-Saint.
Subduing one ape and three barbarians in advance
On the surface, when Zong Sheng showed his trump card, it seemed that he had the power to suppress Fang Yun. However, on a deeper level, Zong Sheng acted hastily before he became a Quasi-Saint. The gains didn't make up for the losses.
Therefore, whether it was Zong Sheng who schemed against Fang Yun or Fang Yun who schemed against Zong Sheng, no one could come to a conclusion.
The throne room was originally very tense, but after the officials thought through this matter, they felt much better.
