All Hail Cousin Brother

Chapter 396  Real Intention Revealed

Mr. Xian Yun agreed deeply. Everyone knew Li Qiguang's ambition. "You want to use Li Qiguang?!"

Zhou Linghuai changed the topic. "I just have to offer advice to Li Qiguang. I'll burn the clan's ancestral shrine, destroy the clan's ancestral code, and pressure the local clans to learn Chinese characters. I'll marry into the Han Dynasty. In the future, in the name of defending the clan, I'll crusade against Li Qiguang. The remaining forces of the clan will definitely be willing to join forces and be used by me. Ludong will completely be under my control. Without the so-called ancestral code, they'll be loyal when they completely integrate into Han life."

Mr. Xian Yun, who was drinking tea, immediately choked and spat out a mouthful of tea. "in Huaixi, in terms of insidiousness, no one in this world can compare to you. Li Qiguang has interacted with the clan in Ludong for many years, so how can he not know the importance of the clan's words, ancestral codes, and so on to them? How can you be sure that he will do as you say?"

Destroying someone else's ancestral hall and ancestral code was an unforgivable and wicked thing. To think that he could think of such a despicable move.

Zhou Linghuai said calmly, "If he doesn't want to, I'll create an opportunity for him to think."

Mr. Xian Yun immediately did not know what to say. "How do we create an opportunity?" contemporary romance

Zhou Linghuai said slowly, "After the Imperial Court's rebellion and defeat, Li Qiguang's reputation has increased greatly, and East Mountain has become his. How can he allow others to sleep soundly? If it were you, what would you have done after gaining power?"

Mr. Xian Yun felt that his brain was not enough. "Of course. While dealing a huge blow to the Imperial Court, he'll completely control Ludong and develop his own power in Ludong."

Zhou Linghuai smiled. "Look, even ordinary people think that way. Li Qiguang can't even compare to you, so I'm afraid his thoughts are inferior to yours. However, if he wants to stabilize his power in Ludong, the clan is the first obstacle. He defeated the imperial army and is at the peak of his success. If he doesn't touch the clan now, when will he?"

Mr. Xian Yun's eyes widened in anger. He asked indignantly, "It's easy for you to say. If the clan is so easy to deal with, it won't become a threat to the Great Zhou Dynasty. If you were Li Qiguang, what would you do?"

Zhou Linghuai said calmly, "Probably just watching from the sidelines and reap the spoils later."

When Xian Yun heard this, he came to a realization. The clans in Ludong were entrenched and intertwined, and the conflict between the clans was very intense.

Li Qiguang had defeated the rebel army. As long as the clan believed that he had suffered heavy losses, the other clans would definitely fight endlessly for power.

In the midst of their struggle, it was not a big deal to destroy the ancestral hall or the ancestral code.

The clan consumed its own energy. When it was almost exhausted, it would definitely hit again.

He was simply reaping the benefits.

The clan forces that had occupied Shandong for hundreds of years and caused a headache for the Imperial Court were simply like children playing house in Zhou Linghuai's mind.

Mr. Xian Yun asked again, "So, after you suppress the rebellion, you don't plan to take over Ludong?"

According to this kid's plan to defeat the Imperial Court, Ludong was nothing.

However, now that he had invited himself to "Calm the Chaos in Shandong", there was no doubt that he would win this battle. Li Qiguang had become a dead chess piece, and his plan could not be implemented.

However, this kid was very scheming. No matter how rich Shandong was, it would still be troublesome if the clan could not be eliminated. He might not take Ludong seriously.

However, this kid was very sinister. Just because he did not take him seriously did not mean that he would hand over the place he had conquered.

Based on his understanding of this kid, he definitely had other tricks up his sleeve.

As a result, he had calculated more than ten steps ahead.

It was more than a hundred steps!

How could a person's thoughts be so deep? How could a person's methods be so sinister?

Zhou Linghuai said matter-of-factly, "It's also a big problem to accept it. I don't want to do such a wicked thing as destroying the ancestral hall and the ancestral code anymore. Then should I leave it to other people?"

When he said the word "other people", his eyes revealed a different meaning.

When Mr. Xian Yun heard this, he understood who this "other person" was. "Are you so sure that the King of Dongning will do it?"

Zhou Linghuai nodded. "Back then, after the emperor ascended the throne, the King of Dongning was the first to offer the Four Seas Flood Dragon Dagger to express his sincerity. Then, he publicized that the Four Seas Flood Dragon Dagger was an auspicious sign from the sky. Among the four vassal lords, the emperor was the most at ease with the King of Dongning."

Thinking of the Four Seas Dragon Dagger, the smile in his eyes turned cold bit by bit.

Mr. Xian Yun smiled. "In the Warring States Strategy, the King of Qin dressed in court attire and had nine guests meet the envoy of Yan in Xianyang Palace. Jing Ke presents Fan Yuqi's first letter, while Qin Wuyang presents the map box and bows to His Majesty. Qin Wuyang's expression changed and he was frightened. The officials blamed him. Jing Ke smiled at Wuyang and thanked him, 'I, the humble servant of the northern barbarians, have never seen the emperor. I hope that the King will use it less and send an envoy to the front.' The King of Qin said to Jing Ke, 'Take the painting that Wuyang is holding.' When Jing Ke took the painting and sent it over, the real reason was revealed."

This was the famous The Emperor and the Assassin story in history.

The crown prince of the Yan Kingdom sent Jing Ke as an assassin, determined to kill Qin Shihuang to resolve the threat of the collapse of the country.

The warrior, Qin Wuyang, accompanied Jing Ke on his assassination. He brought along the head of the enemy that the Qin King had always wanted to kill, Fan Yuqi, and the most fertile land in Yan Kingdom that the Yan Kingdom planned to offer to the Qin King.

However, there was a sharp dagger hidden in the map that was used to assassinate Qin Shihuang. The blade was also tempered with strong poison.

When Qin Shihuang received Jing Ke, he saw that his enemy had been beheaded. When he heard that the Yan Kingdom wanted to offer a large piece of land, he opened the map excitedly. When the map was completely unfolded, the Dagger appeared.

The corners of Zhou Linghuai's lips twitched slightly. "Offering a dagger? Why not show it openly?"

When Jing Ke assassinated the King of Qin, he had to gain the King's trust first. Only in the end did he reveal his true intentions.

Didn't King Dongning offer his dagger back then to gain the trust of the current emperor?

There had long been clues about the vassal lords' disloyalty. However, later on, King You appeared out of nowhere, shocking the vassal lords everywhere.

Mr. Xian Yun shook his head.

Zhou Linghuai sneered. "The Marquis of Dongning is ambitious. There's no reason not to eat such a big piece of fat meat in front of him. Of course, even if he doesn't want to eat it, I'll force him to eat it bite by bite. However, if he wants to eat this piece of fat meat, he has to deal with the troublesome clan. Smart people should know what to do…"

Mr. Xian Yun finally couldn't help but ask, "How many years are you counting?"
