Peerless Taoist

At this moment, although Zhao Yuanyan was not in the top nine, he had a deep fear in his heart.    

The battle credit that Lu Yu had obtained this time was something he didn't even dare to think about.    

The merit was higher than the master!    

In all the dynasties, people like him would be eliminated by the king, and there were even people who wanted to wipe out their families to prevent future troubles!    

However, Zhao Yuanyan could not do it.    

He had never led a division before, so he did not have any prestige in the army.    

Besides, after the signing of the contract in the imperial capital, Great Yu's loyalty to the emperor had plummeted. Even the four battalions of the Imperial Army had some negative comments about the emperor.    

Without an army, Zhao Yuanyan could not use his powerful skills, and could only use cruel officials like Xu Xianchun.    

"This matter is very important, but if it succeeds, Lu Yu will definitely die! There is only one chance left. Whether or not he can kill ___ before he grows, this is definitely a once in a lifetime opportunity. "    

Xu Tiangang's lips suddenly moved slightly, and he transmitted his voice.    

Jiang Junchen, who was standing by the side, suddenly frowned. He did not expect that he would also hear about this confidential matter.    

A piece of confidential information quickly entered into Jiang Junchen and Zhao Yuanyan's ears.    

When Jiang Junchen heard this, he was overjoyed. Just as he was about to speak, he was interrupted by Xu Tiangang.    

"Eunuch Jiang, you will have to step in for this matter. If His Majesty wants to do this, he needs a proper title." Xu Tiangang looked at Jiang Junchen.    

Jiang Junchen hurriedly knelt on the ground. "For His Majesty, I will not resign even if I die."    

Behind the curtain, Zhao Yuanyan's face was faintly visible.    

"This matter... will be done according to Minister Xu."    

...    

The news of Lu Yu defeating the enemy quickly spread to the ears of the various aristocratic families in Imperial Capital.    

Imperial Capital, Zhang Family.    

"What? Lu Yu actually defeated Tang Jun!"    

"Even Li Mi died in his hands. How old is he? How could he have such strength?"    

The group of Zhang Family elders revealed expressions of disbelief.    

Zhang Heng sat on the armchair in the main hall. After quietly listening to the report from the spy, he asked, "Is this true?"    

"Absolutely true! This subordinate had just received the news from the Bureau of Military Personnel. This time, the Tang Army's main generals were basically all wiped out. The Tang Dynasty reinforcement general Guo Ziyi is already in formation outside the Imperial Capital Domain, but he doesn't dare to take half a step. "    

The spy continued to report.    

"Hahahaha - -"    

Zhang Heng suddenly burst into laughter.    

The other elders were stunned. Zhang Heng had always been quite serious in the clan, but now he suddenly lost his composure.    

"I've said it before, there's nothing wrong with us following Lu shi! There were actually people discussing what would happen if Lu Yu defeated our Zhang Clan. Don't you all think about it? Even if Lu Yu didn't lose the battle... Could it be that our Zhang family will prosper?" Zhang Heng shouted.    

Many of the elders' faces turned red, their lips trembled, but they were unable to say a single word.    

They had indeed considered this situation before.    

After all, because of Zhang Heng, their Zhang family and Lu Yu were tied up too tightly.    

"Lu shi is the top scholar appointed by Ancestor! All of you are old and blind. Could Ancestor be mistaken? Don't even think about how far you are from Ancestor. Now that Ancestor is in charge of the Twin World Mountain, the power of my Zhang Family is getting weaker and weaker. If I don't find myself a backer, what right do I have to establish a foothold in the Imperial Capital?" Zhang Heng berated.    

The group of elders trembled, not daring to retort.    

Zhang Heng had become the Zhang family's Family Head at such a young age.    

Normally, when he spoke, there were even many elders who dared to retort because he was young and did not have enough experience.
