Xiao Zhen said in a deep voice: "King Xiyong and Princess Dongyang suddenly entered the palace today and suggested to the Son of Heaven, since you have done a good job in Yuzhou and Jiangnan has been stable, then simply let you stay in Yuzhou, and Jiangnan can rest assured that it will be handed over to others." ”

Song Zheng's face also changed greatly, he had persuaded the emperor to hand over Yuzhou to him, that is, on the grounds that Jiangnan had been "stable", and the oil and water that could be copied for His Majesty had been scraped clean.

Now King Xiyong and Princess Dongyang also use this as a reason to directly take away his fundamental land, and draw his salary from the bottom of the kettle!

"What did Your Majesty say?" Although Song Zheng had this question, he also understood that it was mostly bad news.

Sure enough, Xiao Zhen said: "Your Majesty is about to be persuaded by them." ”

Even if it is just a mediocre son of heaven, he will understand that Song Zheng has just made a "great achievement", and there is no reward, not to mention it, and it is very inappropriate to take away a large part of his interests. But when today's thinking is very abnormal. He felt that his two relatives had a point.

You can concentrate on making money for me in Yuzhou.

And from the bottom of his heart, the Son of Heaven still hopes to be able to scrape again in the rich Jiangnan. Since Song Zheng said that it can't be done, it is better to try it with another person, maybe it will be fine.

Xiao Zhen said again: "It seems that those people behind Pu Shijia have already made a move. ”

Song Zheng thought of what Pu Shijia said in the morning, and immediately understood: those people asked Pu Shijia to tell him that he could make a truce, but he captured the captain who collaborated with the enemy, which was obviously not a sign of a truce. So they reacted immediately - King Xiyong and Princess Dongyang should have been ready a long time ago, and when the news of Yuzhou came, they would enter the palace immediately.

If he loses Jiangnan, and he is a newcomer to Yuzhou, the situation will be very unfavorable. And the previous layouts will also be in vain because of the loss of Jiangnan.

People will lose faith in him.

Song Zheng couldn't help but feel a little flustered in his heart, this was the biggest crisis he faced after escaping from Huangtai Fort.

Xiao Zhen said: "I'll try my best to hold them down, your side...... You have to think of a way, too!"

"Yes, Lord Xie helps. ”

After Song Zheng finished speaking, the two cut off contact. Song Zheng was slightly confused, and the plan he had just made was about to be overturned again, so he got up and stepped out of the door and said, "Inspect the hell." ”

The dragon guard walked in armor and walked with sonorous steps, and broke into the underworld.

Song Zheng stood outside Pu Shijia's cell again, this time, Pu Shijia didn't say a word, he sat cross-legged in the dry straw, opened his eyes and smiled at Song Zheng, three points of confidence, five points of mockery, and two points of schadenfreude.

Then, he closed his eyes again.

Song Zheng turned around and went, inspected the entire cell and the prisoners related to the case, inspected them one by one, and finally said, "Strictly guard!"

"Yes!"

......

In the evening, the bad news spread unbelievably throughout Lishui City, and presumably it will spread throughout Yuzhou tomorrow.

When Song Zheng was having dinner, he received a message from the old man Pangong Xie, of course the old man was very worried, his Pangong clan had been tied to Song Zheng's chariot, and now he couldn't get off if he wanted to.

Jiangnan is about to change hands, and it has spread all over Huzhou City!

His Majesty intends to replace Song Zheng as the inspector of the five states in the south of the Yangtze River - the only obstacle is that Dai Gongliang is not Long Yiwei's person, and this position is nominally Long Yiwei's inspector.

Dai Gongliang is not a person from any elder, in fact, he has always belonged to the "imperial party", and he is the son-in-law of His Royal Highness King Xiyong.

King Xiyong is the cousin of today's son, and he grew up watching the Son of Heaven, and the Son of Heaven respects and trusts him very much. And Princess Dongyang is the eldest sister of the Son of Heaven, not born to a mother.

Princess Dongyang's best thing is to collect some strange and obscene skills to dedicate to the emperor, the emperor is now ignoring the government, and Princess Dongyang is also indispensable.

The two are representatives of the royal family, and if they want to compete for Jiangnan, they will naturally nominate one of their own to take over.

The royal family will never interfere in the government affairs on weekdays, but it is precisely because of this that once they ask the Son of Heaven for anything, they will often say: The relatives have never begged Your Majesty, and this time Your Majesty will help everyone no matter what.

It is also difficult for the Son of Heaven to refuse.

What's more, before there was no Song Zheng, it was actually the royal family who was collecting money for the Son of Heaven.

Bangong Xie came to interrogate Song Zheng, Song Zheng put down his chopsticks, and just said lightly: "Pangong seniors don't believe me?"

Pan Gongxie thought about it again, this kid really seems to be able to survive every seemingly annihilating disaster. And Song Zheng only said this, then ended this time of talking in the air, picked up chopsticks and continued to eat.

His composure made Pangong Xie's heart feel a little calm.

But Song Zheng actually didn't know what to eat. He understood that he had touched a huge interest group, and King Xiyong and Princess Dongyang were just the tip of the iceberg of this group.

This group is different from Shousuke-sama, and they don't have much desire for power, and they value interests more.

Whatever you do, you always think about whether it's worth it. But once they decide that it's worth it, the energy to shoot is only afraid that it will be better than that of Shousuke-sama.

When dinner was over, he had made up his mind and got up to go back to his room to practice.

In the small cave world, the little worm is struggling to eat the head of the Chaos Heavenly Demon, and a little spiritual light has gradually been revealed. The last time Song Zheng saw something hidden in the head of the Chaos Heavenly Demon, he would see it clearly, and was surprised to find that it was an ancient arrow cluster.

Judging from the location and some of the scars on the bones of the Chaos Heavenly Demon, it has only been hundreds of years since this cluster of arrows hit the Chaos Heavenly Demon.

"Could it be that there was once a strong cultivator who hunted and killed this Chaos Heavenly Demon, and was hit by an arrow, but was finally escaped by it. ”

The shaft of the arrow and the sword feather had all decayed and disappeared in the chaotic void, and only this one arrow cluster remained. Song Zheng waved his hand to get out of the way of the worm and took out the arrow cluster.

The little insect was very curious, and leaned over its huge head, wanting to see the real thing.

The arrow cluster is simple, I don't know what material it is made of, and there is a special spiritual inscription engraved on it.

Song Zheng has never seen this kind of spiritual text, and it is not the kind of divine text that can be seen at a glance and know its meaning without knowing its text. But Song Zheng always felt that this thing was very special.

Just an ordinary-sized cluster of arrows can shoot a huge Chaos Heavenly Demon.

He pinched the arrow and moved in his heart, opened another mustard finger, and took out the skeleton of the first Chaos Heavenly Demon to examine it carefully. The five-hundred-zhang Chaos Heavenly Demon was still a behemoth compared to a person. Fortunately, Song Zheng had a Void Divine Town, and the volley fell from the sky and enveloped the entire corpse, and all the small traces on it could not escape his perception.

A moment later, Song Zheng flew up in the air and came to the middle of two huge ribs, one of which had a vague mark, I am afraid that it had been hundreds of years, and the scar had recovered a lot.

He touched it with his hand, and it was almost certain that someone had shot an arrow and grazed the rib and flew past.

The two Chaos Heavenly Demons had both been hunted by people. He felt that he was still ignoring something, and sent the spirit text on the arrow cluster to Xiao Zhen and asked him to help investigate, and then got up and said, "Please send me to the Black Python Ridge with two seniors." ”

The voice was sent out and fell into Qi Bingchen and Lu Wanmin's room. The two elders finished their cultivation, got up, and quietly led Song Zheng through the night sky and landed on the Black Python Ridge in the state border.

After that battle, Black Python Ridge returned to calm. In the stillness of the night, the black wind crosses the mountains, the grass and trees howl, and the wild beasts howl.

Although it is the border between two states, it is not a traffic artery, and it is very deserted on weekdays. Song Zheng stood on the Black Python Ridge, looking up at the void again, and with the spar staff in his hand, he saw those scars on the void barrier.

Although it has "healed", it will take some time to completely disappear.

Song Zhengli was overwhelmed and asked, "Is there a way for the two seniors to break through the void barrier?" I want to go over and take a look. ”

Qi Bingchen asked, "Your Excellency is suspicious?"

Song Zheng nodded: "The people behind the scenes, what method did they use to turn this stable void into a strange one, and how did they lure the Chaos Heavenly Demon over." I think that if you understand this, the situation in front of you will suddenly become clearer. ”

The two peak ancestors bowed their heads: "It's just that the chaotic void is dangerous, adults must be careful." ”

Song Zheng had the experience of the Linghe branch: "Of course. ”

The two peak ancestors joined forces and opened a portal from the Void Barrier in a relatively "gentle" method - this method of crossing the Void would not destroy the Void Barrier, and it could be closed at any time without leaving any trouble.

Song Zheng shrouded the Dragon Fist Bell outside his body and walked in.

Observing the Void Barrier from the "other side", he saw the traces left by the Chaos Heavenly Demon's scratching that day. The trail looked like filaments of light floating in the void, exuding a brutal sense of destruction and shattering.

After Song Zheng looked at it carefully, he set his eyes on the endless void. The Void God Town rose, he raised his hand, rubbed his two fingers, and a trace of fine thunder and lightning condensed, constantly winding back and forth on his fingertips. Heavenly Dao True Thunder was also ready.

But it's too difficult to find clues, the Endless Void is infinitely vast, it's full of all kinds of dark light, dead light, and dark waves, and any trace of it will be completely wiped out in no more than an hour here.

He thought about it again, took out the arrow cluster, and stimulated it with the Heavenly Dao True Thunder, and the aura of the Chaos Heavenly Demon remained on the arrow cluster. With this breath tracking, Song Zheng saw some very vague traces.

That Chaos Heavenly Demon was born with three heads, nine tails, eight claws, and four wings, and its body length was more than a thousand zhang, it was a behemoth!

It had been in the void for a long time—about three days, judging by the vague marks it left behind. Then, it thought about flying into the depths of the Endless Void.

Song Zheng changed several methods, but he could no longer find any traces.

He came to the Void Barrier, looked at the scratching marks, and touched them lightly with his fingers, and a small bolt of lightning instantly rushed into the traces, and then spread all the scars.

Song Zheng's whole body trembled, and he finally gained something.
