Chapter 310 The Troubles in the Force Clan (3) (5k)

When Ning Fengzhi heard Yu Yuanzhen's words, he smiled lightly and said, "I would like to ask, what does the Blue Lightning Overlord Sect mean this time?"

If ordinary people heard their conversation here, they would definitely be confused by their behavior of playing lantern riddles.

One party asked "What do you want to explain?" and the other party asked "What does it mean?" It was like a group of riddlers guessing riddles.

But only they knew that this was the normal state of upper-level conversations. Yu Yuanzhen believed that Ning Fengzhi knew what he meant, and Ning Fengzhi also believed that Yu Yuanzhen knew what he meant.

Yu Yuanzhen frowned at this time, glanced at Emperor Xueye who was sitting on the throne of the main hall, then looked at Huining Fengzhi, and said in a shocked voice, "The Blue Lightning Overlord Sect has never been involved in this incident, don't worry. , I, the Blue Lightning Overlord Sect, have no intention of taking sides.”

"The Blue Lightning Overlord Sect will always be loyal only to His Majesty the Emperor."

Yu Yuanzhen made it very clear that he and the Blue Lightning Overlord Sect had no political stance, and they would not directly take sides like the Qibao Glazed Sect.

Because they were only loyal to the emperor of the Tiandou Empire, it didn't matter to the Blue Lightning Overlord Sect who the emperor of the Tiandou Empire was.

Emperor Xue Ye nodded. He actually seemed to have no objection to Ning Fengzhi's behavior of leading the Qibao Glazed Sect to join the "Xue Qinghe". However, as a ruler, how could he not have some grudges about this in his heart.

"In this case, Yu Xiaogang's behavior should have nothing to do with you. He and Liu Erlong injured my Qibao Glazed Sect disciple, so this matter should be handled by our Qibao Glazed Sect." Ning Fengzhi said lightly.

Ning Fengzhi actually didn't want to break up with the Blue Lightning Overlord Sect after all. After saying this, he took the initiative to help Yu Yuanzhen cut off the relationship between Yu Xiaogang and the Blue Lightning Overlord Sect.

Yu Xiaogang's behavior was described as a personal behavior, rather than the entire Blue Lightning Overlord Sect's intention to rebel.

After all, if the Blue Lightning Overlord Sect is really forced to rebel by Ning Fengzhi's words and fight to the death with the Qibao Glazed Sect, this is not only what Ning Fengzhi doesn't want to see, but also what Emperor Xue Ye doesn't want to see.

If the situation is really desperate and we leave tonight, the Tiandou Empire will definitely be the one with the heaviest losses.

However, Yu Yuanzhen was a little touched when he heard Yu Xiaogang's name.

Although Yu Xiaogang is the most useless one among his many children, he is still his son after all.

And this is related to the face of the Blue Lightning Overlord Sect, he must protect Yu Xiaogang and Liu Erlong no matter what.

But he actually didn't want to get into that situation with the Qibao Glazed Sect and the Tiandou Empire. Although he had already broken up with the Qibao Glazed Sect, there was still a huge difference between breaking up with the Qibao Glazed Sect and fighting to the death.

Yu Yuanzhen took a deep breath, "You said that my child was involved in this rebel act? What evidence is there?"

"What?" Ning Fengzhi frowned slightly, "Someone witnessed Yu Xiaogang cooperating with the traitor. The witnesses and testimonies are all there. Does Yu Zong want to take a look at it?"

Yu Yuanzhen snorted coldly, "Human witnesses can also be framed. Do you have any physical evidence?"

"Master Yu..." Ning Fengzhi took a deep breath, "I want to tell you something first. The method Yu Xiaogang used may be related to Wuhun Palace."

The moment Ning Fengzhi said it, Emperor Xueye, Yu Yuanzhen, and Yu Luomian couldn't help but have a flash of shock and solemnity on their faces.

Qian Renxue also appropriately acted out her "surprise" at the news at this time. Her current identity was "Xue Qinghe", the crown prince of the Tiandou Empire, so of course she had to express the appropriate surprise.

Then the surprise turned into solemnity, as if he was considering the impact of Wuhundian's involvement in this matter.

"The Wuhun Palace is involved in this matter. I'm afraid it's not simple. Yu Xiaogang may have been used by the Wuhun Palace out of revenge. Maybe the people in the Wuhun Palace want to see us like this right now. ." Ning Fengzhi said meaningfully.

"Since Xiaogang is being used." Yu Yuanzhen took a deep breath and actually gave in at this moment, "How about we end this matter for now?"

Because he thought about it and realized that with the intervention of Wuhun Palace, it was really not appropriate for them to have too much trouble with the Qibao Glazed Sect.

This is probably how the "rumors" of the three sects joining forces spread out. In the face of the great enemy Wuhun Palace, even if the three sects plotted against each other, they would eventually make some concessions when facing the Wuhun Palace.

It's just... Even if the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect and the Blue Lightning Overlord Sect intend to give in to each other, the cracks are already here, which makes Qian Renxue quite satisfied.

After all, the Thousand Miles Embankment was destroyed in an ant nest, and there were cracks. To achieve a complete break, we only need to slowly deepen the cracks.

"Yu Xiaogang...although the crime will not lead to death..." Ning Fengzhi said with a smile.

In fact, if you really think about it, once Yu Xiaogang is found guilty of participating in the murder of His Royal Highness, even if he is not the principal culprit but an accessory, he should be executed.

But Ning Fengzhi also sold face to Yu Yuanzhen. This was a confrontation on the political stage. The two sides tacitly agreed to give in to each other, so he said that Yu Xiaogang's crime would not lead to death.

"But the death penalty can be avoided, but the living crime cannot be escaped." Ning Fengzhi said lightly, "He was exiled to the far north of the empire and served as a hard labor. Is it okay to be unable to leave the far north for the rest of his life?"

He had already decided Yu Xiaogang's outcome in such an understatement. He even just talked to Yu Yuanzhen and had no intention of interfering with Emperor Xue Ye.

In the previous life, those who were aloof and arbitrary would have definitely been jealous and would have been charged with disrespect.

But at this time, Emperor Xueye did not have any dissatisfaction, because this was the white jade pillar that supported the sky and the purple golden beam that supported the sea in the current Tiandou Empire.

Moreover, this involved internal affairs of the two major sects, and he had no intention of interfering.

As for the punishment, it is even less possible for Emperor Xueye to punish Ning Fengzhi or Yu Yuanzhen.

So during the conversation between Yu Yuanzhen and Ning Fengzhi, Yu Xiaogang's disposal was directly on the table.

Exiled to a bitter and cold frontier place like the far north of the empire, even a soul master as powerful as the Soul King might not be able to withstand the harsh environment there, let alone a great soul master like Yu Xiaogang who cannot break through the Soul King?

But this is the best result.

Yu Yuanzhen thought for a while, but Ning Fengzhi was right. For the Qibao Glazed Sect, not executing Yu Xiaogang was already their bottom line.

His eyes were complicated. In the past few decades, Yu Xiaogang had mostly been traveling on the mainland outside Tiandou City. Being exiled... was not necessarily a bad thing.

Yu Yuanzhen took a deep breath and nodded gently, "Yes."

"What about my daughter?" Yu Luo Mian, who was behind Yu Yuan Zhen, couldn't help but ask.

"I can't handle this matter lightly for openly injuring my Qibao Glazed Sect disciple, otherwise I won't be able to explain it to the old disciples of the sect." Ning Fengzhi said calmly, "Deprive her of her status as the dean of Lanba Academy, and at the same time let her work under my How about two years of self-cultivation in the Qibao Glazed Sect's Retreat Pavilion?"

Yu Luo Mian had just said something, but at this moment Ning Fengzhi said with a faint smile, "Don't worry, our Qibao Glazed Sect will not treat your daughter half the way. We just want her to cultivate herself for a while."

"However, externally we will claim that this is punishment for Liu Erlong."

After hearing this, Yu Luo Mian let out a long sigh. He did not refuse or agree, but it seemed that he had already agreed.

Indeed, if it were the Blue Lightning Overlord Sect and someone put themselves in their shoes, if someone openly injured more than a dozen sect disciples in the Blue Lightning Overlord Sect, the Blue Lightning Overlord Sect would not be able to let them go easily.

Now Ning Fengzhi was treated leniently, and the huge Qibao Glazed Sect said it would not treat people badly, so there was really no reason to treat Liu Erlong badly.

So Yu Luo Mian agreed. He sighed in his heart and said: This can be considered as letting the girl calm down for a while. (PS: In the eyes of a father, a daughter will always be a girl.)

But Liu Erlong's temper is still so fiery even though he has been away from Yu Xiaogang for more than ten years to cultivate his character. Just two years of cultivating his character in Qibao Glazed Sect is like calming her down. I'm afraid it will be difficult...

Yu Yuanzhen pondered for a long time, then looked at Ning Fengzhi and said nothing for a long time.

"Ning Fengzhi..." After a long time, he finally said, "No wonder your father chose you to be the leader of the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect. It's such a good plan. He really took everyone into account."

Yu Yuanzhen is a figure of the same generation as Ning Fengzhi's father, but Ning Fengzhi's father was unable to advance to a higher level due to a defect in his martial spirit.

In the world of Douluo Continent, only after advancing to the title Douluo can you gain more longevity.

Ning Fengzhi's father died due to exhaustion of his longevity, and then passed the throne to Ning Fengzhi.

Ning Fengzhi smiled faintly, "Thunder Douluo deserves the award."

It's just that he has been smart all his life, so he probably didn't expect that he had schemed against countless people, but he was also schemed against in the end.

Qian Renxue was behind him, with a faint smile on her lips.

"This matter...since it involves Wuhun Palace and Sect Master Ning has made a decision, I won't say more." Yu Yuanzhen said indifferently.

In the final analysis, the reason why he came out this time was more because he wanted to protect the face and interests of the Blue Lightning Overlord Sect, and the father-son relationship with Yu Xiaogang only accounted for a little bit.

After all, he now has many heirs, and Yu Xiaogang is the least talented among his heirs. It is enough for him to show some sympathy and father-son affection.

Now that he is at this age, what he has to consider more is the entire sect.

Instead of just limiting it to Yu Xiaogang, a less outstanding heir, unless Yu Xiaogang can completely affect the development and prosperity of the next generation of the sect like Lu Yuan.

"Now that you two have reconciled as before, you have also made a decision." Emperor Xueye was sitting in the first place at this time and said with a smile, "Fengzhi, if you can forgive and forgive others, you can be considered compassionate."

"In that case, I think..."

He smiled slightly and said, "The whole force clan came to my palace today to apologize. I already know that the assassination of the prince was the work of their former clan leader Tai Tan alone and had nothing to do with them."

"They are also willing to donate their family property to disturb the emperor, and are willing to become vassals of the royal family as an apology. In this case... I have decided to forgive their crime this time!"

Ning Fengzhi was stunned for a moment, and then his face darkened. He quickly stood up, clasped his hands and shouted loudly, "Your Majesty! I don't think this is allowed!"

"No? Why not?!" Emperor Xueye looked a little unhappy at this time.

In fact, he already knew that the protagonist of this assassination case was not the prince "Xue Qinghe", but Lu Yuan.

At the beginning, Emperor Xueye really thought that Titan was the one who assassinated Qian Renxue.

But after all, he is the leader of a country. After all the young men of the Houli clan come to plead guilty.

From the description of the Force Clan, he already knew the truth of the matter.

But even so, Emperor Xueye simply pretended to be confused and let the Li clan take advantage of this excuse to officially become a vassal of the royal family.

"It is a fact that the Force Clan has committed rebellion. I believe that Tai Tai's move to leave the Force Clan before this was to use this as an excuse for the Force Clan to avoid punishment." Ning Fengzhi said in a deep voice.

No matter what, the force clan must become the reason why the Qibao Liuli Sect kills chickens and scares the monkeys, so that the guy who offended Qibao Liuli doesn't pay any price and is safe and sound.

This was even more uncomfortable than letting Ning Fengzhi eat the original nine-turn large intestine.

Anyone who offends the Qibao Glazed Sect will be brought to justice!

This is Ning Fengzhi's bottom line. Otherwise, everyone will think that the Qibao Glazed Sect is easy to bully, and they will step on it. How can it be okay? !

"In the future, if everyone can use this as an excuse to cause rebellion, then the empire and the royal family will never have peace!" Ning Fengzhi continued to say in a deep voice.

"Okay! I have forgiven the Li clan! This matter does not need to be discussed again!" Emperor Xueye was an old emperor after all, but he made a decision at this time.

In fact, in this case, it was impossible for Ning Fengzhi to let Emperor Xueye take back his life.

Emotionally and rationally, he should give in and let the force clan retreat completely.

Yu Yuanzhen on the side was watching their confrontation with some schadenfreude. Now that there was no longer anything to do with the Blue Lightning Overlord Sect, he was happy to watch Ning Fengzhi exhausting his brains here.

"This matter... I have decided to ask His Highness for your opinion." Ning Fengzhi was unyielding, took a step forward and said in a deep voice.

"Ah?" Qian Renxue pretended to be embarrassed.

Because one side is "his" father and the other side is "his" teacher who has always supported "him", it is really difficult to choose.

However, this also makes the choice of who Qian Renxue seems to support, or who does not support both parties, seems very reasonable.

"Father... I don't think this matter should be set casually!" Qian Renxue gritted her teeth and said with difficulty.

She would definitely not be happy for her clan to become a vassal of the royal family, which would make it more difficult for her to control the palace.

If you can reduce the difficulty of the subsequent palace changes, you can reduce the difficulty even more. The best thing is to be 100% sure of the success of the palace changes in the future.

The Li clan was loyal to the royal family and became the emperor's domestic slaves, which was naturally detrimental to her as an "undercover".

Ning Fengzhi smiled slightly, feeling more satisfied and trusting the student "Xue Qinghe".

Emperor Xue Ye sighed. His son was good at everything, but he was too close to the Qibao Glazed Sect and was completely influenced by Ning Fengzhi.

But...even so, "Xue Qinghe" is still his best successor.

Just like the First Emperor and Fusu in Lu Yuan's previous life, no matter how deeply influenced Fusu was by Confucianists and how indecisive he seemed, he was still the best candidate for the second emperor in the First Emperor's heart.

But at this moment, a guard leader quickly walked in outside the door.

He knelt down on one knee and reported to Emperor Xue Ye, "Your Majesty... all five hundred members of the Li clan have been arrested by the Qibao Glazed Sect. I hope your Majesty will give you instructions!"

Emperor Xueye's expression changed, and at this moment Ning Fengzhi shouted loudly again, "Your Majesty! According to the laws of the empire, those who intend to assassinate the royal family members or conspire to rebel will have the principal offender and their accomplices killed, and beheaded in public as a warning, and the family members of the principal offender will The men directly within the three clans will be put to death, the women will be given slave status, and the remaining family members will be sent to the frontiers!"

"The Force clan assassinated His Highness with the intention of treason. The facts are established. I hope that Your Majesty will not break the laws of the empire. This is the first of its kind!"

Emperor Xueye's eyes were a little tired. This was the dilemma of the Tiandou royal family now. He, the emperor of the empire, could not completely decide on many things.

Today's Qibao Glazed Sect is not the semi-declined Qibao Glazed Sect that was severely damaged by Wuhun Palace's soul hunting operation later in the plot and most of the elders and disciples in the sect. It relies on the protection of the Tiandou royal family.

Today's Qibao Glazed Sect is even more powerful than the original Qibao Glazed Sect at its peak. With Ning Fengzhi at the Soul Douluo level and the two titled Douluo, the combat effectiveness has been improved again.

Even Yu Yuanzhen must be wary of Ning Fengzhi and Sword Douluo at this time, let alone Xue Ye, who does not have a titled Douluo in the royal family?

And as far as Xue Ye knew, their royal family's guest, Poison Douluo Dugubo, had a close relationship with Lu Yuan, a teacher-student relationship.

In addition, Lu Yuan had already captured all the members of the Force Clan by beheading them first and then killing them.

When the Qibao Glazed Sect took the initiative, they could ignore Xue Ye's will.

And Xue Ye couldn't blame Qibao Glazed Sect and Ning Fengzhi for this.

Because the empire still relies on the Qibao Glazed Sect.

Xue Ye seems to have no choice. In this fantasy world, high-end combat power really determines everything.

When he thought of this, his body seemed to grow older.

Emperor Xueye could only take a deep breath, "In that case, let's do it in accordance with the laws of the empire. The principal offender of the Li clan will be executed by men directly within the three clans of his family. The women will be assigned slave status, and the remaining family members will be assigned to the border areas. The confiscated family property will be confiscated into the national treasury... …”

"In addition, Lu Yuan has done meritorious service in protecting the prince and was granted the title of viscount."

"Ai Qing, are you satisfied?" Emperor Xueye looked at Ning Fengzhi.

After he knew that he couldn't do anything, he deliberately wanted to please Ning Fengzhi. For the sake of the Li clan, and now he couldn't save the Li clan, it was not worth it to offend the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect out of thin air.

Ning Fengzhi showed a humble attitude at this time. He lowered his head slightly and said, "I will obey His Majesty's will."

"Then so be it." Emperor Xue Ye nodded.

Suddenly, the meeting ended with the victory of Ning Fengzhi and the Qibao Glazed Sect, but the Blue Lightning Overlord Sect was not a complete failure.

Yu Xiaogang was already protecting the face of the Blue Lightning Overlord Sect by not being executed.
