The tyrant empress is my wife, I am invincible and have been hiding

Chapter 361: Pingxi King Zhao Du’s plan to retreat in order to advance!

"How is your brother doing?"

Wang Meng frowned slightly.

When Murong Wan'er heard the word "brother", her face became solemn. For so many years, even she didn't know what was going on with Murong Yue.

Murong Yue has now become what everyone calls a playboy. He is addicted to romantic places all day long, has no ambition to make progress, and his cultivation has remained at the innate realm.

"What else can we do? He indulges in pleasure places all day and all night. My father has taught him a lesson time and time again and even put him in solitary confinement from time to time, but it's of no use at all." Murong Wan'er replied.

"Your mother's death was a huge blow to him. You two don't need to blame him too much. It would be nice if he could live a carefree and happy life in the future." Wang Beiwang had a look of relief on his face. Everyone has their own way of living.

If Wang Beiwang had been given another chance, and he had chosen to retire when he helped the Great Xia Dynasty conquer Nanyuan, his daughter Wang Lianyan would not have married Murong Boheng, and naturally she would not have been assassinated. Ordinary people have their own ordinary lives, and three meals a day and four seasons may not be happiness.

"The situation in the entire Jiuzhou has been very turbulent recently. The Great Qin Dynasty in the east has been making frequent moves, its national strength is prosperous, and its military force is strong. If the Great Qin moves eastward, it will definitely compete for Jiuzhou. I'm afraid Jiuzhou will fall into chaos again." Wang Beiwang raised his head and looked towards the east of Jiuzhou.

After six generations of emperors' hard work and diligent governance, and after Gongsun Yang's reforms, the Qin Dynasty now has every citizen mobilised as a soldier and is very powerful.

The most important is the contemporary emperor of the Qin Dynasty, Qin Zheng, who is a martial arts master, very good at leading troops in battle, and has many brave generals under his command.

General Bai Yuan from Guigu Villa was known as the massacre of tens of thousands of people. All the generals who had fought with him called him the God of Killing.

"Grandpa, is the Qin Dynasty really that powerful?"

Murong Wan'er frowned slightly. She often heard various rumors about the Great Qin Dynasty. Although she had met Qin Yingying, Princess Wencheng of the Great Qin Dynasty many times, she had never been to the Great Qin Dynasty in person.

However, every time his grandfather mentioned the Qin Dynasty, he would look solemn. She knew her grandfather's strength very well, and it was definitely not aimless.

"The current emperor of the Great Qin Dynasty, Qin Zheng, is far more talented than the six previous emperors of the Great Qin Dynasty. I have heard some rumors from the outside world that he may enter the realm of immortals on land."

When Wang Beiwang's words rang out, Murong Wan'er and Wang Meng both took a deep breath at the same time. If Qin Zheng stepped into the realm of a terrestrial immortal, he would probably have no rivals in the entire Jiuzhou.

“But there is no need to worry too much. The realm of the land immortals is illusory. As an emperor, Qin Zheng has too much karma on his body. It will be difficult for him to break through to the realm of the land immortals.” Wang Beiwang knew very well that the more he was involved in the mundane world, the more demons he had in his heart, and the harder it would be to break through to the realm of the land immortals.

If one breaks through rashly, one will most likely lose the stability of his spiritual mind and suffer backlash. In the best case, he will be seriously injured and unable to recover. In the worst case, he may go possessed and die on the spot.

Wang Beiwang's eyes fell on Murong Wan'er again. Thinking that the person Murong Wan'er favored was Ye Feng, the emperor of the Song Dynasty, he was a little worried: "Wan'er, Ye Feng is indeed quite capable. Grandpa has heard of him. But he doesn't seem to have practiced martial arts. The more powerful he is in the future, the more dangerous he will be. You should be mentally prepared."

Wang Beiwang didn't mean to scare Murong Wan'er, but there were too many such situations in Jiuzhou. The more outstanding the talent, the greater the danger.

"Don't worry, Grandpa! I will protect him!"

Murong Wan'er said in a firm voice.

When Wang Beiwang heard this, a hint of coldness spread in the depths of his eyes. As Murong Wan'er's grandfather, he hoped that Murong Wan'er would find a man who loved her more and could let her suffer less. He didn't want Murong Wan'er to need him to protect him.

"Grandpa, I'm going to go out for a walk. You can chat with my uncle slowly." Murong Wan'er hadn't been to Nanyuan for a long time. She also wanted to walk around and take a look. Seeing Wang Beiwang nod, she turned and walked outside.

"Wan'er seems to be a little too deeply in love with Ye Feng. Find a few reliable people and go to the Song Dynasty to test the waters and get to know this Ye Feng better. If it may affect Wan'er's life, you should find a way to resolve it yourself." As soon as Murong Wan'er walked out of the study, Wang Beiwang's old eyes were filled with cold murderous intent.

His daughter died young because of a man, and was stabbed to death. He didn't want his only granddaughter to suffer the same fate.

"Okay, Father!"

Wang Meng nodded without hesitation.

……

Pingxi Palace.

Zhao Du sat on the throne, with his two sons standing on his left and right, the eldest son Zhao Fei, the second son Zhao Yuan, as well as many counselors and generals, all of whom were his confidants.

"I believe you have all heard that Lord Zhenguo Ye Feng visited the Song Dynasty and took the opportunity to destroy King Nanyu Zhao Pengju." Zhao Du squinted his eyes as he spoke.

He was secretly glad in his heart. If Ye Feng had chosen to inspect his territory in Liuchang County, it would most likely have been him, the King of Pingxi, rather than the King of Nanyu who would have been destroyed.

“If this continues, I’m afraid I’ll be the next one to be destroyed.” Zhao Du said slowly. He had finally become the King of Pingxi and was really unwilling to accept the result.

"Your Majesty, I think we should join hands with King Dongxuan to deal with Ye Feng." Zhao Fei took the lead and took a few steps forward, speaking loudly.

As Zhao Fei spoke, the two counselors behind him also expressed their agreement.

"Brother, it seems that you have received many benefits from the King of Dongxuan. Do you want to plunge father into the abyss?" Zhao Yuan, who was pale and thin, was unwilling to be outdone. He never agreed to go against the court. The King of Dongxuan, Zhao Yunfei, had a strong army. If they joined forces with Zhao Yunfei, even if they could help Zhao Yunfei seize the throne in the end, they would be the first to be liquidated by Zhao Yunfei.

"In my opinion, Lord Zhenguo Ye Feng is now in the ascendant. We might as well show him that we are willing to submit to the court, pay taxes, and ask the court to grant us Pingxi County so that we can guard the border for generations and defend against the Western Shu Dynasty."

Zhao Yuan saw clearly that Ye Feng had won every battle since he came to the Song Dynasty. With the territory and military strength of Pingxi County, it would be like hitting a rock with an egg if they wanted to fight against Ye Feng.

Moreover, if they take the initiative to submit their surrender now, the King Zhenguo will definitely go along with it in order to balance the entire Song Dynasty and give them a way out, and everyone will live in peace.

Hearing the completely different opinions of Zhao Fei and Zhao Yuan, his eyes narrowed slightly, "Both of your ideas are too extreme. Why not retreat in order to advance? Send someone to contact the state lord Ye Feng on the surface, and secretly hook up with Zhao Yunfei. Let them fight each other, and we will reap the benefits."
