Monarch of Evernight: Twenty-seven old guys

bsp;Wu Daoyu was furious, his momentum slowly rising, and said: "You, a little brigadier general, dare to be arrogant in front of me?"

Zhao Chengyi was unmoved at all and said: "I am indeed just a brigadier general, but now I still have an identity, the envoy of the Zhao clan! When did the military become so domineering, and could attack the envoy of the Zhao clan without even speaking a word? Shouting to kill?"

Wu Daoyu’s eyebrows stood up and his anger became even stronger. But Zhao Chengyi was right. Injuring Brigadier General Zhao Clan is completely different from hurting Zhao Clan's envoy.

The brigadier general of the military headquarters was very clever. Seeing that Wu Daoyu was riding a tiger and was unable to get off, he quickly smoothed things over and said, "If you have something to say, you have something to say! In this matter, after all, our military personnel suffered heavy casualties, so Wu Shuai was justifiably angry. However, General Zhao is the envoy of the Zhao Clan after all, and represents the Zhao Clan now, so we should first listen to what General Zhao has to say, and understand what the Zhao Clan means. ”

Wu Daoyu snorted, shook the letter, and said: "Is there anyone left in your Zhao family? If you ask Zhao Jundu to come for a hearing, do you have to guard this line of defense for you?"

Zhao Chengyi ignored the sarcasm in Wu Daoyu's words and said solemnly: "General Jundu is known as the number one genius in the empire. He is unique. Who can replace him?"

Wu Daoyu was at a loss and wanted to criticize, but he didn't know where to start. Zhao Jundu's reputation as the number one genius has been widely recognized. Even if some people disagree, there is really no one in the same generation who can compare with him. Originally, Qianye still had some hope, but now that he has revealed his identity as a vampire and fought his way out of the unfallen city, he will naturally not be mentioned again.

Wu Daoyu stopped mentioning the matter and said: "Then what is the meaning of this article? If you want Jundu to come for a hearing, I have to go to the Zhao clan to discuss it in person?"

Zhao Chengyi said loudly: "How can the Fourth Young Master with his status, unparalleled talent, and imperial bloodline be able to hear just by asking for a hearing? Such a major matter cannot be decided by just anyone. At present, there is no decision In the city of Sui Zhi, Duke You is respected by the Zhao family. If they want to interrogate Master Jundu, they must get Duke You’s nod.”

Having said this, Zhao Chengyi sneered and said: "With your status, Commander Wu, if you want to see Duke You, it's better to go over and see him."

Wu Daoyu was furious again and said in a cold voice: "I am representing the military at the moment! Isn't it better than Duke Youguo?"

Zhao Chengyi sneered again: "Can you represent the military? Haha! Calling you Marshal Wu is respect. I have never heard of any former marshal who can represent the military."

Wu Daoyu's face was ashen, the corners of his eyes were twitching, and murderous intent was leaking out.

Zhao Chengyi ignored him and said to himself: "The empire has its own hierarchy, order and etiquette. If you don't go to see Duke You, do you still need Duke You to come to see you? If the general's memory is correct. , you and Duke You Guo had an affair back then, and it didn’t seem to turn out well, okay?”

Wu Daoyu's face was even more ugly, and Zhao Chengyi somewhat saved him some face. The result of that wasted game back then was not only not very good, but also a disastrous failure. With this scar exposed, his mood will naturally not get any better.

Wu Daoyu suppressed his anger and said calmly: "The Zhao family is now headed by Duke Youguo? Why did I hear that Duke Chengen has also arrived?"

Zhao Chengyi said: "You want to have **** with Duke Cheng'en? However, Duke Cheng'en is stationed in Western Xinjiang and has important responsibilities, so he is only staying here for a few days. In addition, Princess Gaoyi has also arrived. I wonder if Wu Shuai also wants to see her? ”

Wu Daoyu's face changed, and he finally said: "Since Mr. Cheng'en is busy with other matters, I won't disturb you. I will go to see Mr. Youguo early tomorrow morning."

Zhao Chengyi bowed and said: "This is best, then I will retire."

After Zhao Chengyi left, Wu Daoyu said: "Go and ask Mr. Rong to come over."

After a while, a middle-aged man with a graceful bearing and a few strands of thin beard walked in. When he saw him, he held his hands and smiled and said, "Why did Wu Shuai suddenly think of me?"

Wu Daoyu put on a smile, went over to hold his hand, and said, "I have something to ask Marquis Rong. What action will the imperial family take regarding this matter?"

The middle-aged man's smile became a little unpredictable, and he smiled without saying a word.

Wu Daoyu winked, and the brigadier general immediately presented a palm-sized box. The middle-aged man opened it and saw a finger-sized gem inside. It was blue and crystal clear without any impurities. He was filled with joy and his smile immediately became more enthusiastic. He said, "Oh, how can this be so embarrassing?"

He said he was embarrassed, but he quickly collected the things. After putting the box in his pocket, the middle-aged man said: "I am just a small role in the imperial family, and I have to obey orders from above in everything." . But this time, there is really news related to this matter."

"What's the news?" Wu Daoyu felt something bad for no reason.

"The princes intend not to interfere in this matter for the time being."

This news came out of the blue, and Wu Daoyu was shocked and said: "How could this happen!"

The middle-aged man sighed and said: "I didn't understand it at first, so I asked more questions. Fortunately, I have a good relationship with those princes, and I often go around to say hello. Just got some inside information."

"Ronghou, please speak."

The middle-aged man lowered his voice and said: "Qianye is Qianye, Zhao Jundu is Zhao Jundu. Does Wu Shuai understand?"

Wu Daoyu frowned and said: "But these are two things. That Qianye is obviously a vampire."

The middle-aged man sighed and said: "These are two things and one thing. There is nothing wrong with hunting down the vampires, no matter what you do. But if you want to touch Zhao Jundu, that is another matter, and It's a big deal! Now that Princess Gaoyi has come forward, it's hard for the princes to say anything, so they can only stay out of it. Okay, that's all I can say, farewell!"

After the middle-aged man left, Wu Daoyu's face darkened and he said bitterly: "Well, Zhao Jundu, it seems that you have already thought about it!"

The brigadier asked cautiously: "Are you still going to Duke Youguo's place tomorrow?"

"Go, of course. If we don't **** Zhao Jundu back for hearing, where will the military's face be? I just have to endure this momentary anger, so what can I do?" Wu Daoyu sneered.

The brigadier general hesitated and said: "Wu Shuai, Zhao Clan insisted that we take over the defense line. Is there anything fishy in this?"

Wu Daoyu sneered and said: "They just hope that we will retreat when the difficulties are encountered. But I also fought in countless **** battles back then. How can I be afraid of this kind of battle? You go make arrangements now and make more adjustments. Come over with some troops. I want to see how strong the dark race's offensive can be!"

The brigadier general took the order and left.

When he left, Wu Daoyu showed his gloominess. Only he himself knows that he lost to Duke You Guo back then, and now he is no longer sure about fighting Zhao Weihuang. Zhao Weihuang guards the western border and has fought fierce battles with dark races and rebels for many years. In recent years, his strength has grown by leaps and bounds. I am afraid he is no longer the first to reach the level of a divine general. If it weren't for the fact that the position of marshal had always been determined, and Lin Xitang was in charge of the overall situation in Western Xinjiang, Zhao Weihuang might have been the marshal.

Moreover, there are many conflicts and factions within the military department. Even the King of Immortality dare not say that he can cover the sky with one hand. The Right Prime Minister likes to control things behind the scenes, and rarely stands directly at the front desk, so Wu Daoyu is on the front line at this moment, fighting directly with the Zhao clan. At this moment, the imperial family stayed out of the matter, which was equivalent to a direct confrontation between the right prime minister and the Zhao family. Wu Daoyu suddenly felt a lot of pressure. Under such a situation, if a mistake is made, before Zhao Clan takes action, someone within the military department may jump out and start an attack.

In the vast void, a tattered aeroboat was sailing, and its speed could not be said to be fast.

Qianye walked into the control room and saw that there were almost no moving marks on the route map, feeling helpless. He was used to riding on imperial warships, and Song Zining's ship was extremely fast, but now this ship was as slow as a snail, not much faster than a heavy cargo ship.

"How long will it take to reach a neutral ground?" Qianye has asked this question countless times.

The captain was burly, with a full beard, and always had a shiny dark red pipe in his mouth. According to himself, this is just a common hobby, but Qianye heard that pirates wandering in the void all like to use pipes. A rare pipe is a symbol of the great pirate's status.

Hearing Qianye's question, the captain grinned and said, "We'll be there in a few days."

This is the answer every time, which makes Qianye’s ears tingle. From the time we took off, the captain said it would arrive in a few days, but now, the answer is still the same. According to the progress of the route map, it will take at least seven or eight days to reach the outskirts of the neutral land.

At this moment, there was a sudden bang, and a fire suddenly appeared from the corner of the console, followed by thick smoke. As soon as the control panel failed, an engine outside stopped turning. The bearded man frowned, walked over, kicked the console, and then punched it several times. Miraculously the console came back to work and the engine started again.

The captain turned around and smiled at Qianye: "This kind of minor problem can be cured with just a few taps. There is no need to fix it at all."

Looking at the console with footprints and charred remains, and looking at the empty void outside the porthole, Qianye always felt less safe.

The captain chuckled and said: "It's okay. When did my Red Pipe ship have an accident? This old guy has been with me for twenty years and he couldn't be more reliable."

Qianye looked at the rusty cabin roof, then at the dozens of control levers on the console, and the power pipes with several patches. No matter how he looked at it, he didn’t think this ship was The ship is only twenty years old.

The captain scratched his hair and said, "That's right. When I got it, it was already one hundred and forty years old."

Seeing the strange look in Qianye's eyes, Hong Yandong said hurriedly: "Don't think it's old, but it's strong and much better than those boats with thin shells nowadays. You buy this old guy, It’s really a profit. Your silver boat is beautiful, but it’s useless in a place like Neutral Land?”

Qianye couldn't bear his bragging and said: "The ballista on that silver boat can sink this old antique with one shot."

The captain chuckled and said, "That's not necessarily true."
