Chapter 63: Take a step back, the sky will be wide open, take ten steps back, there is no way to go
Chapter 63: One step back, the sea is wide open, and there is no way to go (Sixth)
Since the Lower Mountain Pass, Zheng Linran has never been with Ling Luo.
But she felt that she had the handle in Ling Luo's hands, and she did not dare to despise the Ling family in front of others, so she could not speak up for evil.
This time she took the initiative to see Ling Luo, although she took the initiative to let go of her face, she could not help but say something to lower her posture. In the past, Zheng Linran would never want to, but now for the sake of the Feixian Sect, she trusted Bu Jingxian's judgment and had to force herself to let go of her face.
Ling Luo was playing chess with Princess Tianlai in the mansion, and suddenly the servants in the mansion came to report that Zheng Linran, the leader of the Feixian Sect, asked for a meeting.
"Hmph——! No see." Ling Luo felt disdainful when he thought of Zheng Linran, and disdained her behavior, angered her for losing her integrity.
Seeing this, Princess Tianlai hurriedly persuaded her to explain carefully, "It's okay to meet each other. Xinhou has always been broad-minded and has to be said to be quite too petty about the issue of the Linran Sect Master."
Ling Luo was still angry, but after hearing Princess Tianlai's words, she was unwilling to disgrace her face for this, so she changed her mouth and said, "Please ask her to come here to speak."
The servant went there quickly.
When a guest comes, the host plays chess and receives it by himself. It is only applicable to people with a much lower identity than him. Even so, it seems that the guest is neglected.
Zheng Linran was taken to the garden and saw Ling Luo playing chess with Princess Tianlai, and she felt very unhappy. She knew that Ling Luo was still remembering her anger, and she was still making things difficult for the beggar in Beiling Mountain.
"It's really enviable that Hou Xin and the Princess are so leisurely and contented."
Zheng Linran pretended not to be cold and sat down to watch the chess with a smile.
Ling Luo said lukewarmly, "I don't know what's wrong with the Sect Master?"
Zheng Linran had already thought about saying something, pretending to be lonely, and said in a sad tone, "I wonder if the Hou Xin knew that King Zheng wanted to control Feixian Sect?"
"I haven't heard of it. But if the sect leader came for this, he probably came to the wrong place." Ling Luo was still lukewarm.
"Don't misunderstand. The king is so arrogant and has nothing to say. Although he is determined to let go of the affairs of the Feixian Sect, he is inevitably depressed and depressed. He just can't find a person who speaks. He can't help but think of the princess and the Xinhou. When he came here to see two of them so leisurely and contented, he is really envious. He only hopes to learn this kind of mind and not think about those unnecessary things."
Ling Luo looked at Zheng Linran and was quite surprised. He remembered that Zheng Linran was a person who pursued power very much, and suddenly said this was abnormal.
"Since the sect leader can see it openly, what's the trouble?"
Princess Tianlai felt that Ling Luo was too unkind, so she hurriedly said, "As long as the sect leader is willing, he is welcome to visit here at any time. It's just that here is monotonous, but there are two things to do in practicing martial arts and chess."
Zheng Linran hurriedly smiled happily and said, "It's really gratitude for the rare princess to not bother her with a stern disturbance."
After she said that, she saw Ling Luo still having the same attitude, she sighed and asked, "Is Xinhou still blamed Lin Ran?"
Ling Luo was still angry when he thought of the matter at Low Mountain Pass, and endured his disgust and said, "How dare Ling Luo!"
Zheng Linran's eyes turned red, and Chu Chu whispered pitifully, "It is natural for Xinhou to be a man who is not aware of his wife's deeds. At that time, Linren was unable to ride a tiger and was forced by the Beijun and refused to agree, but he could not ignore the body of the dignified sect leader. If the people in the world said that the leader of the Feixian Sect was untrustworthy, how could the disciples of Manzong look up and be human? They were all laughed at. I originally hoped that Xinhou could convince Beijun at that time, but the Beijun was actually very arrogant and did not care about his affection with Xinhou. What could Linren do after Xinhou left?"
Ling Luo didn't want to say much, but after hearing these words, his disgust towards her was slightly reduced, but his anger became deeper.
"How can the sect leader consider this? He is criticized for his great reputation for being criticized for a lifetime. The Northern King is rude to make a request. Even if he refuses the people in the world, he will only accuse him of the Northern King rather than the sect leader! The sect leader has lost all his attention to one thing and given up the most important thing!"
Zheng Linran cried even more and more sadly and blamed himself, "What Xinhou scolded was that Linran was very regretful afterwards. He blamed himself for being confused at the time, only caring about the reputation of Feixian Sect but forgetting the importance of it. But Xinhou should have known that Linran was not wise, and could not compare to Xinhou Mingzhi. When he suddenly encountered such a situation, he had already been confused and lost his inch, and he was really unwilling to do so!"
Ling Luo had not thought about these situations. After hearing this, it was difficult for him to recur. Moreover, Zheng Linran was now disappointed and was able to come here, and expressed his feelings to them so much, which made it difficult for him to continue.
"Don't be so sad, the past has passed. Besides, the sect leader was not afraid to leave any stain on the reputation of the sect at that time, and it is reasonable."
Princess Tianlai gave up the chess game at this time and sat beside Zheng Linran and comforted her.
Ling Luo couldn't get angry for a moment when he looked at Zheng Linran's appearance.
After a while, seeing Zheng Linran feel better, he said, "I just heard that the sect leader seemed to have contact with Beijun later." These things were originally stolen, and Ling Luo could not verify whether it was true. He said it at this time but only tested Zheng Linran's reaction.
Although the latter was guilty, he realized that the meeting and contact with Beijun would not be known by Ling Luo, so he said in anger, "How can Xinhou believe such a nasty nonsense? It is truly a destruction of people's innocence and aimless. Since he lowered the mountain pass, I hate Beijun but still couldn't do anything. How could he have another contact? If he hadn't known that Wugong was not a match for Beijun, he would have been looking for him to fight for life and death!"
Ling Luo then forgave her a little and stopped mentioning the matter. Instead, he asked her, "Have the sect leader ever been to Pi County?"
Zheng Linran was anxious and said pitifully, "How can I not go? I just thought about the humiliation of the Northern King, and felt ashamed of my husband in heaven. So hesitated and had no face to meet him. When he arrived, his day of worship had passed. At that time, he was embarrassed and angry and had nowhere to tell. He couldn't stop crying in front of the cliff of Pi County. I don't know if my husband could forgive..."
Zheng Linran predicted that Ling Luo would be accompanied by Princess Tianlai and could not have stayed after the festival, so he made up these lies. In fact, Ling Luo did not spend the night on the cliff. After hearing her, he felt relieved. He knew that she was willing to go to Pixian County, so the previous words had a credible element.
His attitude towards Zheng Linran has changed a little better and is no longer so inhumane.
The three of them chatted like this for a while, and Zheng Linran suddenly talked about the alliance between Zheng State and the Soul and Will Kingdom to attack Chen.
"I wonder if the Queen Xin heard about the attack on Chen?"
"Everyone in the government and the country knows it." Ling Luo sighed heavily after saying that. "It's really a mistake!"
Zheng Linran hurriedly asked, "Why do you say this?"
"The king wants to use the alliance to ensure that the Northern King will not send troops to attack Zheng, and then he can freely send troops to Yan State to get a share of the pie. It seems that Zheng State has benefited, but the Northern King has gained more, and it is a more dangerous act of raising tigers. Although Zheng State can send troops to attack Yan, the 600,000 martyrs led by Bei State in Yan State will also be able to pass through the territory of Zheng State and escape safely."
After Ling Luo said that, he firmly affirmed, "In fact, the Northern King did not dare to send troops when Zheng State attacked Yan State. The Spiritual Kingdom must first take over Chen State, otherwise it will inevitably be burdened by excessive military power in the future."
"Your Majesty heard that the Kingdom of Soul Will has received help from the Great Immortals of Soul, and the whole country is full of Guru fruit trees, and the army's food is no longer a problem."
Zheng Linran didn't understand why Ling Luo said it was certain.
"The civil and military officials in the court were so confused. Guru Fruit can indeed protect the soul army from hunger, but Guru Fruit cannot survive for a long time without the tree. How can it be used as a supply for the army to go to war!"
Zheng Linran suddenly realized, and felt that it was not that the civil and military officials in the court were not wise, but who knew how long Guruguo could be stored? In terms of precious medicinal materials and delicacies, she and many people could count hundreds of them. But who would know about Guruguo’s low-quality food? Everyone around King Zheng knew about them! Those who knew were low-level officials, and those people had no chance to participate in such military and national affairs at all.
"Guru fruit, can't be preserved for a long time?"
Ling Luo felt helpless. Unexpectedly, Zheng Linran and the same sisters of July had not heard of them from July.
"Yes, it will only last two days at most. Therefore, if the Northern King wants to fight, he must first take over the State of Chen. He will never have the power to send troops to destroy Zheng. However, the State of Spiritual Soul and Will has received the help of the Great Immortal of Spirit, and it is difficult for others to send troops to attack. When they are passively defending, they are not afraid of having no food to eat."
Zheng Linran suddenly realized. "So, even if there is no alliance, the Shenhun Army would not dare to send troops when Zheng State attacked Yan State. Instead, they would have to send troops to attack Chen. However, the issue of food and grass makes it impossible for the Shenhun Army to attack Chen. If they cannot win in a short time, they will inevitably be trapped by food and grass, so they have the desire to join forces, which is a three-killing victory in one fell swoop."
"These are five gains, which lead Zheng, and Chu has a gap for Yan State, which is one gain; saving Yan State's martyrdom army out of difficulties is one gain; allowing victory or defeat in the battle against Chen is one gain; and allowing Zheng State's army to suffer heavy damage in Chen State is another gain."
Zheng Linran was thinking about whether he should take this opportunity to meet King Zheng and express his interests and seek credit. However, when he remembered that he was careful about King Zheng in the past, he still ended up in the current land and gave up this idea. He was quite unwilling to let Beijun’s plan go to waste, and his mood was particularly complicated.
"Why didn't Xinhou remind you?"
"It's unnecessary. King Zheng does not need the Ling family, and it is even more impossible to adopt the Ling family's proposal. If the King Zheng cannot help the Ling family, the more the Ling family dissuaded, the more he would have to act contrary to the truth. He must use facts to prove that the Ling family's suggestions were nothing more than worrying about the truth to prove the wiseness of the emperor. Therefore, if he is silent, the emperor may suddenly change his mind. Talking about dissuasion will force the emperor to do whatever he wants to do."
"Xinhou never forgets the major affairs of the country. He is still considering Zheng Guo in this matter, which really makes Lin Ran admire him." Zheng Lin Ran sighed secretly, regretting that if Ling Luo had not stopped her private affairs, she would have been still in love with her martial arts and talents to this day. Even if she did not have too many extravagant expectations, she would have been a close friend.
