Chapter 886: Chapter 118: Journey to the Western Regions, Struggle for the World, Reunion with Big Brother (Requesting Monthly Votes)
As Li Guanyi’s voice fell, Changsun Wuchou had already solemnly saluted, turned around, and quickly walked out. The young Lord strolled out, wherever he went, not only did the soldiers salute respectfully, but the passing civilians were also extrely respectful.
Yet, this young Lord did not have any airs, nor did he accept the freshly picked fruits from the civilians. Even the Qilin, whose mouth watered, was deterred by Li Guanyi’s gaze. The Little Qilin mumbled: “A gentleman loves fruit, but acquires it righteously.”
“To eat or not to eat.”
He suddenly stiffened.
The Little Qilin slapped his own mouth, gritted his teeth, and then beca extrely dejected: “Damn it, that Old Qilin is still chasing !”
Li Guanyi laughed and said: “Have you had enough of the good fruits these days?”
The Little Qilin instinctively replied: “This hundred years…”
He imdiately regretted it, and slamd his paws on the ground, murmuring:
“No! I’ve had enough, truly enough!”
“I don’t want to eat anymore!”
Li Guanyi laughed heartily, and while speaking, used his movent technique to head to the place of discussion.
This place was nothing special, just a normal governnt office courtyard, but it was guarded by heavily armored soldiers, only the true core strategists and martial generals of the Qilin Army could enter.
Li Guanyi himself sat in the main seat, waiting for everyone to arrive. In springti, sunshine stread through the hollowed windows of Jiangnan, bringing a kind of hazy feeling; the spring breeze and spring day were beautiful, always making one feel that the world’s turmoil was nothing but a dream.
This thought raises the irresistible desire to grow old peacefully in Jiangnan.
Li Guanyi waits alone, unfolding the letter.
Li Zhaowen’s letter was as always.
He first congratulated Li Guanyi on his achievents, then discussed the world’s general situation.
The letter also contained detailed descriptions of the Western Regions, which Li Guanyi read completely. Just last year’s final autumn hunting organized by the Emperor, Ying Country and Chen Country finally engaged in a long-planned war, each had victories in battles, but Chen Country had gradually weakened.
Before the autumn hunt, the Regent King had already taken control of most of Dangxiang Kingdom’s territories, and then stopped the military actions. At that ti, Dangxiang Kingdom forced Chen Country to send troops, and failing that, threatened to sacrifice the married Palace Master of Chen Country.
The Regent King mobilized troops for the crusade, saving the Princess, but did not deploy any more soldiers.
And in the Western Regions, various tribes caused disturbances.
People of unknown ethnicities erged, claiming how significant their ancestors were, refusing to accept the Central Plains people’s occupation of this area, causing a serious commotion.
Li Zhaowen’s letter casually ntioned this, but Li Guanyi thought that the Western Regions disturbances were complex and definitely connected to him.
After all, he held the Hun King Seal of Tuyuhun in his hand.
Li Guanyi thought of how Li Zhaowen obtained it, then gifted it to him, he gave it to Qibi Li later, thinking absentmindedly about how it almost happened two years ago.
The Western Regions were originally vast, with thirty-six tribes, previously suppressed by Tuyuhun. After Tuyuhun’s extinction, neither Chen Country nor Ying Country obtained the seal in the first instance.
Without the seal, it was difficult to completely subdue the tribes of the Western Regions, coupled with Demon Sect activities, over these two years, all kinds of monsters and demons erged.
The letter stated: “Spies from the Regent King received information that it was precisely because of his inadequate logistics, insufficient troops, and the overly vast and complex Western Regions that he was restrained, not able to deliver the final blow to Dangxiang Kingdom.”
“This information spread, the new leaders of the Western Regions tribes all beca quite proud, each self-proclaid as Great Khan, Great General; the Regent King ignored them. At that ti, I found it strange, there must be deceit, so I stayed here, didn’t go to the Central State.”
“It’s unfortunate, couldn’t et Mr. Li.”
“But it wasn’t in vain.”
“As I expected, the Regent King’s so-called defeat was just baiting, once the heads of the tribes and evil sect mbers erged, during the Chen Country and Ying Country conflict, Chen Country couldn’t manage him, the Regent King wielded his army, directly aiming at Dangxiang.”
“Now, Dangxiang Kingdom is weakened, almost perishing.”
“For Mr. Li, if the Western Regions are settled, Jiangnan will remain singly suspended, though it could have decades of peace if not balanced globally, with Chen Country and Ying Country failing to put an end to their struggle, no other vitality remains, ultimately leading to downfall despite such balancing.”
“For , my family has been Dukes for generations, I am the Duke Ying.”
“If the Regent King Chen Fubi occupies the Western Regions, he may invade where my family is, and also devour Chen Country. Chen Fubi was originally from the Chen royal family, once Prince Puyang of Chen Country, if he breaks Chen Country, it may quickly join him.”
“By then, Chen Country would be reborn; the King of Chen Country would change from Chen Dingye to Chen Fubi, which is not good for my family, nor for Daying. For Mr. Li, if he desires to sit firmly in Jiangnan, while the world’s wars continue endlessly, to preserve his power, it would be a good choice.”
“But if elder brother also has aspirations to sche for the world, he could co over for a talk.”
“I have prepared good wine. As I said before, if Mr. Li cos, he should be shown the truth, today it can be achieved.”
“Brother, Li Zhaowen, respectfully.”
Li Guanyi seriously ponders these things, Shaking Light stands quietly beside him, all the Qilin Army have arrived, but none ca in, awaiting everyone outside to enter together.
Beyond Jiangnan, Pang Shuiyun also returned yesterday. Among Li Guanyi’s strategists, he deserves to be the most senior, seeing everyone has arrived.
