The person who came to spread the report turned out to be an acquaintance of Lu Li.

Seeing Tan Long who was intact, Lu Li smiled and didn't ask anything.

Being able to stay in King Yan's Mansion even at this time can prove his loyalty regardless of whether he was injured or not.

"Lin Wangbei?"

Ge Xinyue frowned slightly, "What is he here?"

After Tan Long greeted Lu Li, he replied: "Marshal Lin said he wanted to see Master Lu, but the younger one didn't dare to disturb His Royal Highness, so he came directly to the general manager for instructions."

"see me?"

Lu Li didn't expect that Lin Wangbei suddenly boarded the door of King Yan's Mansion, not to find Mu Hongxiu, but to find himself.

What are you looking for?

Lu Li was a little puzzled, but he said directly: "Sister Ge is going to tell your Royal Highness, I will go and see Marshal Lin first."

In my memory, I didn't have much communication with this Marshal Lin.

Except for the meeting in the Imperial Study Room, it seemed that he had never seen each other again.

Lu Li was also a little curious. In this sensitive situation, Lin Wangbei, as the Marshal of Zhen Guo, suddenly found out what he was doing.

"Be careful with yourself. Although Lin Wangbei is considered to be upright and upright, it is definitely not a good thing for him to visit now."

Ge Xinyue raised a point aside.

This attitude actually sends out a message.

She had fully agreed that Lu Li could participate in the upper-level situation of the Saint Kingdom Swallowing Heaven.

Even if he is not qualified to be a chess player, he has at least got rid of his identity as a chess piece and is no longer at the mercy of others.

Lu Li nodded, and then said to Ling'er: "You go with them to my yard and wait for me. I'll be back in a while."

Ling'er behaved very well, and gave a soft hum.

But Xiao Maoqiu was a little dissatisfied, "You little boy, your strength is not very good, but there are a lot of things."

Lu Li ignored it and let Tan Long lead him.

Followed Tan Long to the meeting room of King Yan's Mansion, Lin Wangbei, dressed in white, was already sitting there peacefully. There were several female guards who were still serving as maids, and the atmosphere was a little serious.

Seeing Lu Li and Tan Long walking in, Lin Wangbei turned his eyes, "Come?"

With such familiar tone, Lu Li raised his brows slightly, and naturally walked to the opposite side of Lin Wangbei to sit down, smiled and said, "I don't know if Marshal Lin is coming, he is not far away to welcome him, and is rude and rude."

"Stop the courtesy."

Lin Wangbei raised his hand to stop Lu Li from saying those scenes, and said straightforwardly: "Before King Yan arrives, I have a few words to ask you."

"Oh?" Lu Li smiled, "Marshal Lin, please say."

"If you were to choose between Heaven Swallowing Holy Kingdom and King Yan Palace, which side would you stand on?"

Lin Wang looked north at Lu Li, observing his expression.

However, after hearing this question, Lu Li also glanced at Lin Wangbei and smiled: "Does Marshal Lin want to ask this question himself, or does your majesty want to ask?"

"This has nothing to do with your Majesty." Lin Wangbei said sternly: "This is just one of my doubts. Of course, you don't have to answer."

"This question is very well asked, there is nothing unanswerable."

Lu Li raised his hand, and Tan Long on one side suddenly understood and dismissed the several female guards present. Even himself quickly retreated, giving the two an absolutely quiet space for conversation.

This detail made Lin Wangbei frown.

At this time, Lu Li seemed to have established a certain amount of prestige in King Yan's Mansion. With time, I'm afraid he will be on par with Ge Xinyue.

Thinking of this possibility, Lin Wangbei sighed, knowing that your thoughts of drawing Lu Li might be frustrated.

At this time, Lu Li pondered his words a little, and said slowly: "I stand on the side of King Yan's Mansion, and His Royal Highness is on the side of the Holy Kingdom. So no matter what my position is, as long as I'm still in King Yan's Mansion one day, Just one day are people on the side of the Holy Kingdom."

"This is your answer?"

Lin Wangbei sighed.

Obviously, he was not very satisfied with Lu Li's answer.

But he didn't plan to keep asking.

Because if you continue to ask, the question will become, if King Yan chooses to stand on the opposite side of the Holy Kingdom, what should Lu Li do?

Not to mention whether this problem will happen, even at this critical point, Lin Wangbei would not ask such a sharp question.

That way, it was not testing Lu Li's loyalty to the Holy Kingdom, but forcing King Yan to rebel.

The martial arts cultivation base has been abolished, and Mu Hongxiu now seems to have lost all support, but in fact he still possesses tremendous energy.

At least, she has been operating in Yanzhou for many years, and it is impossible for her to have no hole cards.

"Is Marshal Lin dissatisfied with this answer?" Lu Li smiled, "If he is not satisfied, I have other answers here."

Lin Wangbei smiled bitterly: "No, I'm here to see you this time because I have something to discuss."

He only now understands why this young man was able to cause a storm in the imperial capital in just a few months. Just looking at his method of hacking dumb riddles, he is completely inferior to any one who has spent countless years in the court. Old man.

Therefore, Lin Wangbei simply omitted those useless temptations, and directly said: "Your Majesty ordered me to go to the mountains and recover those sects. He specifically asked me to bring you, and he thought it would be helpful."

"If you have any requirements, just ask them now. Your Majesty said, as long as you dare to speak, he can meet any requirements."

"Regain those sects?"

Lu Li groaned, and then he understood what the emperor meant.

Now that war between the two countries is imminent, the sect in that mountain range will surely become a hidden danger.

Even if they did not move, the Holy Kingdom Swallowing Heaven might not have trusted them. Rather than being distracted and guarding at the time, it is better to recover these sects now and let them contribute in the next war.

After thinking about this, Lu Li said: "Thanks to your majesty, I should have been responsible for this matter. But now the affairs of King Yan's Mansion are complicated, and it is difficult to support the situation by only relying on General Manager Ge."

The implication was that he had already regarded himself as another general manager of the Yan Palace.

Even though Yuan Jingtao’s foreign affairs chief was only a nail inserted by King Cang in the palace of King Yan, it was intended to divide Ge Xinyue’s rights and at the same time suppress the influence of King Yan's palace in the imperial capital. Now that Yuan Jingtao is dead, King Yan’s Mansion is waiting to be revived. This previously unnecessary position seems to be prepared for Lu Li in advance.

Therefore, although Lu Li's remarks were a little excuse, they were not making excuses.

As the strongest combat power of King Yan's Mansion, with him in charge, he can naturally play a deterrent effect. Otherwise, with Ge Xinyue alone, it is estimated that other forces will soon usher in trouble.

Lin Wangbei seems to have known that Lu Li would say this for a long time, "Don't worry about this. Although the sects in the mountains are complex, there are only a few that are really worth regaining. This matter will not be delayed for long, when necessary. , I don’t mind using force to complete the task as soon as possible."

"and."

Having said that, Lin Wangbei paused slightly, "Your Majesty meant that he wanted His Royal Highness Yan to leave the imperial capital as soon as possible."

Lu Li squinted his eyes, immediately stopped talking, and made a thoughtful gesture.

However, a female voice sounded abruptly and broke into the conversation between the two.

"You want me to leave the imperial capital?"

Before she finished her words, Mu Hongxiu wore a black dress, stepped inside, looked at Lu Li calmly, and then looked at Lin Wangbei: "Do you mean I want to run away like a mourning dog?"

Although Mu Hongxiu at this time no longer possesses the martial arts cultivation level that surpasses many masters, and because of his serious injury, his face is a little pale, but under that pale, sickly and weak complexion, there is a trace that makes people dare not dare. Ignore the momentum.

"I have seen His Royal Highness Yan Wang."

Lin Wangbei stood up and bowed to her.

Regardless of whether Mu Hongxiu is strong or not, she is one of the nine kings of the Heaven Swallowing Holy Kingdom, and Lin Wangbei will not neglect her in such details.

"Marshal Lin doesn't need to be polite. As you can see, I am just a useless person now." Mu Hongxu raised his palm, revealing a faint smile.

Not only did the appearance of her illness not affect her manners, but after the sharpness was removed, she gained a somewhat pitiful beauty.
