Peerless Taoist

2The Divine Seal Marquis's eyes lit up and he quickly clasped his hands. "What the Divine Seal Marquis said is true. He is still young, so it is not appropriate to give him the title of Marquis. However, his achievements are outstanding, and it is enough for him to be promoted to the East Victory Provincial Governor. "    

    

If this scene was seen by outsiders, they would definitely be shocked.    

    

The Eight Great Marchioness held a high position, while the others were all experts on equal footing.    

    

However, looking at this scene, the Divine Seal Marquis was extremely respectful towards Xu Guizong, as if he was a servant.    

    

The other military officials were well aware that the reason why the Divine Seal Marquis was able to be transferred back from the foreign land of bitter cold was entirely because Xu Guizong was secretly manipulating things. The Divine Seal Marquis also acknowledged Xu Guizong as his lord and was willing to be his pawn.    

    

Xu Guizong waved his hand, "Let's do it this way. The Grand Council will immediately send a message to the Cabinet and have them prepare to go."    

    

Behind the curtains, there was still silence. Shen Linglong did not speak.    

    

The Emperor did not speak, but Xu Guizong forcefully intervened and directly rejected the Emperor's opinion.    

    

This was practically a treasonous act.    

    

But the few people present had calm expressions, as if they had long since turned a blind eye.    

    

"We will follow your orders."    

    

"Since there's nothing else, all of you can go back first." Xu Guizong waved his hand, and the military officials left the Everlasting Palace one after another.    

    

The warm incense in the Everlasting Palace filled the air and calmed down again.    

    

Shen Linglong's cold voice came from behind the curtain, "They are all gone, why aren't you leaving?"    

    

Xu Guizong did not answer. He stood up and actually walked in front of the Luan Platform and lifted the curtain.    

    

Behind the curtains, an outstanding beauty appeared. She wore a long black robe embroidered with crimson embroidery, and a bright yellow jade belt was tied around her waist. A fair arm stretched out from the long robe, and lazily pressed against her forehead that was as white as jade.    

    

A faint fragrance lingered in the air, like the fragrance of a gardenia flower, making people feel like they were in a dream after smelling it for a while.    

    

Shen Linglong slowly opened her eyes. Her long eyelashes trembled slightly as she stared at Xu Guizong with her almond-shaped eyes. "You are becoming more and more impudent. Do you really want to treat Zhen as your puppet?"    

    

Xu Guizong lowered his head and said lightly, "Your Majesty must be joking. Our Xu Family serves Your Majesty."    

    

Shen Linglong shook her head and did not explain too much. She said lightly, "What exactly do you want? It sounds good to say that I am personally leading the army. I am now far away from the central hub. The Crown Prince in the Imperial Capital had long planned to overthrow me, the Emperor with a different surname. With the death of Prince Su, the surrounding princes of the Zhao Family are also restless. Without me in charge of the Imperial Capital, something will happen sooner or later."    

    

"That's right, I want them to be thrown into chaos."    

    

In Xu Guizong's eyes, runes could be seen flashing.    

    

Shen Linglong frowned, "What are you thinking? Most of the Xu Family's properties are in the Emperor Capital. Even I was supported by your Xu family. Are you willing to give away your wealth and imperial power? "    

    

"The world is unpredictable, and the dead are like this. In my opinion, it's only a matter of time before Great Yu's imperial court falls apart. The three literary saints have already left the imperial capital and headed for outer space. They had seen further than the others, and had long since seen through what was behind this prosperity. The hidden dangers. "    

    

"Instead of guarding Great Yu's Heavenly Dynasty, they eventually died of exhaustion. It's better to conserve his strength and wait for the world's revolution to arrive. I have extracted most of the Xu Family's strength, and when the chaos is about to erupt... Prepare for battle, conserve energy and prepare for battle."    

    

"What a joke! That crown prince and those princes of the Zhao family are just chess pieces. A bunch of tigers will devour dragons, and all the stars will fall. These people will vanish one after another."
