Chapter 65 Thinking about the general situation
At a time when the situation between the North and the South is becoming increasingly tense, the situation is secretly becoming very strange.
The actions of the imperial court and the actions of Prince Fu's Mansion made Prince Ping increasingly uneasy. It seemed that both sides were frequently mobilizing their armies, one to the south and the other to the north. A war situation had already taken shape. However, for some reason,
There was something unusual going on in Ganzhou. According to their potential informants there, Ganzhou General Ling Yue was recruiting troops aggressively.
What is the purpose of this?
Could it be that King Fu still wants to swallow me, Xiangyang?
Prince Ping knew very well that the constant ambiguity between the north and the south might have made both sides hate him, but if he didn't do something at this time, he would probably have no chance.
What troubles him a bit is that his own military strength is obviously insufficient. If King Fu really wants to take action in Ganzhou, it is still a question whether it can defend it. In this case, he can only hope that the two sides will start a war first, so that he can't take care of it.
You, you can also take the opportunity to grow further and reap the benefits.
Perhaps, we should choose a side first?
He hesitated, an inexplicable sense of crisis welling up in his heart.
However, Prince Jing may not be able to tolerate him anymore. Du Cheng's matter is a trigger. Prince Fu may still be able to talk, at least, it's okay to slow down for a while.
This was his mentality. When he really wanted to do something big, he realized that he didn't have much of an advantage. What he was most worried about was that if both the north and the south were eyeing his territory and attacked from both sides, Xiangyang City would be destroyed again.
It's as solid as gold, and you can't hold it even if you're afraid.
"Reporting to the prince, someone claiming to be Taoist Xingyue has come to ask for an audience with the prince!"
While he was thinking about it, a guard reported such news.
"What? Taoist Master Xingyue!!"
Prince Ping couldn't help but be shocked. How could such people, who had never met each other before, find themselves in the palace today? However, if he could use them for his own use, that would be a great thing!
"Come on, please, please quickly!"
Wuming and Qingqing on the side couldn't help but tighten their hands when they heard Taoist Master Xingyue's visit, and showed some timidity unconsciously.
Wan Xiaoqing, on the other hand, felt somewhat ashamed. To him, Taoist Master Xingyue was simply a god-like existence. His martial arts skills shocked the past and present, but his strange behavior even more frightened him.
As someone who had parted ways with Xingyue Dao, he couldn't help but feel anxious.
King Ping happened to see his expression and smiled slightly.
He had no way of knowing what the purpose of Taoist Xingyue's coming was. If such a person really wanted to harm himself, there was no need to show his name to call for formation, so Prince Ping seemed very calm.
Not long after, Taoist Master Xingyue, dressed in black robes and still masked, walked into the meeting hall, accompanied by Dong Er, the Black Wind Envoy, and Qiu Feng, the Lotus Envoy.
"Kowtow to the prince!"
Taoist Master Xingyue bowed to Prince Ping.
King Ping immediately stood up, smiled, and returned the salute.
"I have admired Taoist Master's name for a long time, and I am really lucky to meet you today!"
Taoist Master Xingyue shook his head.
"What's the point of being a bereaved dog and a man in trouble!"
As he said this, he glanced at Wan Xiaoqing, with a smile on his face. This made Wan Xiaoqing lower his head in fear and shame.
"Tao Master is too modest. I wonder if I have come to my palace today to give you any advice?"
Prince Ping is still very polite. Such a man of great influence in the world cannot be neglected at all.
"Your Majesty, how dare you talk about giving advice? You really offend me by talking like this!"
Taoist Master Xingyue shook his head again.
Today is different from the past. Will the Xingyue Taoist of today still be the Xingyue Taoist of the past?
