Chapter 479 A sign of change

Lu Yuan directly told Emperor Xue Ye his thoughts, including the style and essence of guerrilla warfare.

"Very good." Emperor Xueye nodded, "In that case, let Tianyinghou continue to do this..."

Everyone could not help but be stunned when they heard Emperor Xue Ye's words.

Lu Yuan has already been awarded the title of Duke, and Emperor Xueye still calls Lu Yuan Tianyinghou...

They all looked up at Emperor Xueye, who didn't seem to realize that his address to Lu Yuan was inappropriate at the moment.

"Your Majesty..." The chamberlain immediately spoke quickly and said, "Maybe he was too quick to speak, so he called me wrong."

Then he quickly stepped forward and whispered a few words in Emperor Xueye's ear.

Emperor Xueye just woke up from a dream and said, "Ah, yes, yes."

He looked at Lu Yuan, "Mr. Tianying is an official of the empire. This mission is important. I hope you won't disappoint me."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Lu Yuan didn't seem to care. He nodded immediately and said, "But for the guerrilla strategy after this time, I need an elite force to carry out guerrilla and attack the enemy's supply lines."

"What do you mean..." Emperor Xueye asked.

"Exactly, the elite of the empire are nothing more than the Royal Knights." Lu Yuan said, "But the guerrilla strategy does not require dispatching the entire Royal Knights. I only need 5,000 Royal Knights and 10,000 Sky Shadow Army!"

Guerrilla warfare and cutting off supply lines are not frontal operations, but roundabout and flexible operations. The initiative is to attack and leave with one strike. It doesn't matter whether it succeeds or not. It will never fight the enemy's frontal army.

Of course, it's best to hit the target with one hit and then retreat.

Otherwise, fighting like this is meaningless.

Therefore, it is best to dispatch a relatively elite army, and also have superb equestrian skills, so that they can retreat quickly after one hit.

And isn’t this talking about the Royal Knights?

Therefore, it is best to bring five thousand Royal Knights to invade the supply line extended by the Star Luo Empire to Zhennan Pass.

In addition, the 10,000 Sky Shadow Army was broken into pieces, hiding in the wilds of the Principality of Hel, and constantly conducting small-scale guerrilla warfare.

Emperor Xueye pondered for a while, then nodded and said, "In this case, you are currently the temporary commander of the Royal Knights, so as you said, you will lead a division of the Royal Knights to attack Zhennanguan."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Lu Yuan nodded and said.

"Besides that, Prince." Emperor Xueye looked at Qian Renxue and asked, "How is the gathering situation of the four kingdoms?"

"The four major kingdoms reported that they have assembled 800,000 of the kingdom's coalition forces and are preparing to lead the people to retreat to Jialing Pass." Qian Renxue said immediately, "Fifty million kilograms of grain and grass have been collected in the granaries of the major provinces, and the Fengwu Army will I will escort you personally and will arrive at Jialing Pass in a week."

"Very good!" Emperor Xue Ye was immediately very happy, looking at Qian Renxue with increasingly satisfied eyes.

Although all of his heirs had unfortunately died in infancy over the years, the Xue family was still alive and had left him a prince worthy of being a king.

Otherwise, if there is only one dandy prince like Xue Beng left, and the throne is passed to him, Xue Ye may not have any face to meet the former emperors of the Tiandou royal family.

"The empire still needs everyone to work together to repel the invading Star Luo Empire." Emperor Xueye then looked at everyone and said, "If this battle is successful, you will be the great contributors to the empire. I hope you will not give in. I lost...ahem..."

Suddenly, before Emperor Xue Ye said the word "wang", he coughed violently.

The coughing sound was very loud and continuous, as if Emperor Xueye wanted to cough out his lungs.

The minister at the side immediately became flustered, and then he stood at the front, blocking everyone's gaze from looking at Emperor Xue Ye, and said, "Your Majesty is not feeling well, and today's discussion ends here!"

In fact, not only him, but also other people in the palace, even Marquis Senluo looked a little flustered.

While everyone was in a panic, only Lu Yuan noticed that Qian Renxue in front of him seemed to have a hint of joy in his eyes that could not be hidden.

Needless to say, Emperor Xue Ye's "slip of the tongue" just now and his heavy coughing now show that his health is getting worse and worse, which is Qian Renxue's fault.

She must have increased the amount of mixed toxins that Emperor Xue Ye took on daily basis...

Otherwise, according to the original plot, no matter how bad Emperor Xueye's health is, he will not be able to behave like he is now, as if he will die soon.

You know, after the palace incident in the original plot, he lived until he trained Xue Beng and became a qualified prince. That was several years of life.

Although Ning Fengzhi used the secret method to activate life force on Emperor Xue Ye at that time, it seems that Xue Ye will not be able to survive that time...

And Lu Yuan was right, this was exactly what Qian Renxue did.

During this period of time, she directly increased the amount of toxins mixed in Emperor Xue Ye's sachet and food, hoping that Emperor Xue Ye would die suddenly.

She looked at Emperor Xue Ye at this moment, her eyes full of joy, and she kept saying in her heart, "Die quickly... As long as you die, my mission will be completed, and I can... truly stand beside him. In front of me."

As she thought this, she couldn't help but look at Lu Yuan who was standing beside her.

"Everyone... please step back," the minister said.

Qian Renxue's eyes flashed at this moment, and then she stepped forward, pretending to be worried, and said to the leader of the guards below, "Come quickly to find Poison Douluo."

"Yes." The guard leader did not doubt that he was there and immediately ran to the Sunset Forest on the outskirts of the city.

"You guys too, please leave as soon as possible." Qian Renxue said to Lu Yuan and others.

"Yes." Lu Yuan, Sen Luohou and others all nodded, and then slowly exited the Great Meeting Hall.

At this time, Lu Qingqing also turned her beautiful eyes and said to Qian Renxue, "Your Highness, my brother has just come back not long ago. My brother and I gathered to chat for a while, so I will say goodbye for now."

Qian Renxue smiled and nodded, waving her hand, "Go."

Lu Qingqing immediately followed Lu Yuan's footsteps and walked out of the Grand Meeting Hall.

The palace door was slowly closed, and Ning Rongrong frowned, "Your Majesty, this is..."

"Hush." ​​Senluohou shook his head, "Your Majesty's physical problems cannot be discussed casually."

"But..." He couldn't help but say, "It seems like things are really going to change. I just hope it won't change in this troubled time."

After saying that, he looked at Lu Yuan again and said respectfully, "Mr. Tianying, I hope you will see more in the future."

If Emperor Xue Ye dies, the person who will take over the throne will be His Highness the Crown Prince "Xue Qinghe". As Lu Yuan and Qibao Glazed Sect are the true ministers of His Highness the Crown Prince, their power by then will not be worse than it is now, or even worse. When the time comes, Ning Fengzhi and Lu Yuan will definitely be the most popular ministers!

Especially Lu Yuan. Lu Yuan is the prince's natal family, and with such cultivation and ability, how could he not be used by the prince after he ascends the throne?

Of course, Marquis Senluo must quickly show his favor to Lu Yuan.

But he didn't know that it was impossible for "Xue Qinghe" to ascend to the throne.

Even if Qian Renxue's identity was not exposed, Lu Yuan would not let Qian Renxue succeed.

Even if he knew that Qian Renxue saved his life with Lovesickness Red, he would not give up his ambition.

but……

Lu Yuan nodded lightly and said expressionlessly, "From now on, I will all be my colleagues serving as ministers to His Royal Highness. Marquis Senluo is so polite."

Sen Luohou suddenly showed a smile on his face.

However, he didn't see that Lu Yuan's eyes were full of complexity, as if he was making an important decision.

…

On Tiandou City Avenue.

After receiving the news, Dugu Bo immediately rushed back to Tiandou City from the Sunset Forest.

He returned to Tiandou City by himself without even having time to pay attention to the announcement from the leader of the guards.

Soon, he arrived outside the palace.

Then I saw Lu Yuan, Ning Rongrong, Lu Qingqing and Sen Luohou who had just come out.

Marquis Senluo immediately saluted, "Junior Ilusen, I have met senior Poison Douluo."

Dugu Bo ignored him and looked at Lu Yuan and Ning Rongrong.

Marquis Senluo was a little embarrassed, but it was impossible for him to argue with a ruthless person like Dugu Bo.

If Dugu Bo is made unhappy, it would be great fun just to give him a family-wide entertainment.

"Teacher (Senior Poison Douluo)." Seeing this, Lu Yuan, Lu Qingqing and Ning Rongrong greeted Dugu Bo.

Dugu Bo frowned, "You just came out of the palace?"

"Exactly, teacher." Lu Yuan said, "I just came out after discussing matters with His Majesty and His Highness the Crown Prince in the palace."

"Is the prince here too?" Dugu Bo frowned.

"Yeah." Lu Yuan nodded.

"Lu Yuan." Dugu Bo called Lu Yuan's name very seriously at this time.

"The students are here." Although Lu Yuan didn't know why, he still responded.

I saw Dugu Bo suddenly using his soul power to restrain his voice from leaking out, and the sound reached Lu Yuan's ears, "Not long ago, Emperor Xue Ye was cured of a mixed poison attack in his body by me using green scale snake venom. The overall situation should be trending towards It’s important to be stable, and it’s impossible for things to go wrong again so soon.”

"There is only one possibility in this situation, and that is that the person who poisoned has increased his weight, and you know who the poisoner is." He said coldly, "It seems that he can't wait for his father to die. This Do you really believe a man who even murders his own loved ones?"

Hearing this, Lu Yuan shook his head at Dugu Bo, "Teacher, this is my choice, I believe her."

Dugu Bo looked at him intently, then sighed, then waved his sleeves and walked directly into the palace.

After all, Emperor Xueye was in critical condition right now, and Dugu Bo had to go to rescue him.

After Dugu Bo left, Lu Yuan smiled and said a few polite words to Marquis Senluo, and then got into the carriage with Ning Rongrong, preparing to return to the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect.

On the carriage, Ning Rongrong suddenly said to Lu Yuan, who had been silent for a long time, "Xiao Yuan, are you worried about something?"

Lu Qingqing was also stunned for a moment, looked at Lu Yuan curiously, and said, "Brother, were you just..."

When Lu Yuan heard this, he smiled dumbly at Ning Rongrong and said, "It's nothing..."

Then he winked at Lu Qingqing.

Lu Qingqing immediately understood that her brother must have been thinking about Emperor Xue Ye just now.

Ning Rongrong looked at him, pursed her lips, and said, "But you were clearly thinking about something when you were in the palace just now, and what Senior Poison Douluo was talking to you just now."

Lu Yuan looked at Ning Rongrong and didn't know what to say.

After all, he didn't dare to tell Ning Rongrong about those bold ideas and plans. Even though they were lovers now, he decided to spend his life with Ning Rongrong and never let him down.

But he just couldn't tell Ning Rongrong that he wanted to rebel and that he wanted to seek the supreme throne.

He was afraid that if he told her, he would lose Ning Rongrong.

Because he seems to have been taking advantage of Ning Rongrong, and being with Ning Rongrong seems to be to get the support of the Qibao Glazed Sect behind her.

It was obvious that Ning Rongrong had always treated him sincerely, how could he make Ning Rongrong feel that he had failed her sincerity?

So he would rather keep acting like this, so that Ning Rongrong doesn't know all this, and later, Ning Rongrong thinks that he has no choice but to rebel against the Tiandou royal family and become the king on his own...

so……

"I'm sorry Rongrong..." Lu Yuan looked at Ning Rongrong and said, "I swear, this is the only thing I have hidden from you in my life..."

He smiled and said to Ning Rongrong, "I was actually thinking that Your Majesty's current health may not be long before he dies. This is what the teacher just said to me. In addition, now that the Star Luo Empire has invaded, the Spirit Hall Desire is coming, but even so..."

"Rongrong." He directly grabbed Ning Rongrong's weak and boneless hand with a serious expression.

"Huh?" Ning Rongrong leaned into his arms.

"I will protect you and our Seven Treasures Glazed Sect." Lu Yuan's three-dimensional chin rested on the top of Ning Rongrong's soft hair, and he said slowly but firmly, "even if it costs my life."

Ning Rongrong was stunned for a moment, and her attachment to Lu Yuan became stronger. She responded softly, "I can do the same, Xiao Yuan. Even if we are against the entire continent, I will stand by your side..."

On the side, Lu Qingqing looked at Ning Rongrong's happy face lying in Lu Yuan's arms, with deep envy in her eyes...

…

That night.

Emperor Xue Ye's body used another secret technique through Dugu Bo, and then he was saved from the half-step of hell.

Although Qian Renxue was unwilling to do so, she had no choice but to give up.

But now she is getting more and more impatient, she wants Emperor Xue Ye to die now!

And just then.

"Young Master." Snake Spear Douluo appeared directly in front of Qian Renxue. The surrounding area had been sealed by his soul power. It was impossible for anyone to hear their conversation.

He looked helpless, holding a token and a letter in his hand, "This is the third papal edict sent from the Holy City this month..."

Ever since the Holy City decided to carry out the soul hunting operation, but Qian Renxue did not obey the order, Wuhun City would send a papal edict every once in a while.

But Qian Renxue still ignored it. There were six papal edicts sent last month and this month, and the frequency of edicts was getting higher and higher.

The last time Bibi Dong sent a papal edict was only a week ago...

Qian Renxue's face was extremely cold, "Don't pay attention, that woman can't do anything to us. And why... why don't you give me more time, I can wait until the old guy is dead soon, and then directly take over... "

She gritted her teeth and her eyes were cold.
