Chapter 196: Bai Qi enters Beijing
Chapter 196 Bai Qi enters Beijing
Bai Qi felt a little relieved, but a new question arose in his heart, that is, why the Ancient Tree of Changsheng asked about the Ancient Tree of Life. According to the principle, the two are irrelevant. You must know that the Ancient Tree of Life lived in this elves forest. Since the hundreds of tribes retreated, the Ancient Tree of Life chose to migrate to the All-Every Forest with the Elves. There is no intersection between the two. Of course, even if there is Bai Qi, it is impossible to know that compared with the Ancient Tree of Life and the Ancient Tree of Changsheng, Bai Qi seems too young.
Bai Qi only knew that the other party existed in the Forest of All Things. Bai Qi had seen the Ancient Tree of Life a hundred miles away, but he had never approached it at close range. It is said that the nearby place is the forbidden area of the elves, and the most powerful elves archers of the elves were stationed there. In addition, there were elders and warriors of the tree people. There was an absolute forbidden area, and even Bai Qi had never approached it.
"Sorry, I don't know very well about the recent situation of the Ancient Tree of Life. Although I have also visited the Vientiane Forest and took a look at it from afar, I have not gotten close and there is no conversation. I just know that the Ancient Tree of Life is still alive, and the branches and leaves are lush. I don't know anything else. I don't think I can't help you anymore." Bai Qi said in an apology tone.
"Um...this is the case. If that's the case, that's great. At least I know that my brother is still alive, that's enough. Can you do me a favor? I will give you enough benefits...um...this is a good thing that is very beneficial to you..." Changsheng Ancient Tree said to Bai Qi with a smile.
"Please tell me." The guy in front of him could not offend him. He would not say any benefits. Just the other party did not let him demolish the wooden seal would be enough for Bai Qi to have a headache, so Bai Qi was very aware of the matter and did not ask for any benefits to the Ancient Tree of Eternal Life. Although he really wanted it in his heart, he still restrained it in the end.
"Actually it's very simple... Just let your subordinates go back and give this leaf to my brother's Ancient Tree of Life... You don't need to ask more about the rest. There is still a leaf here, which you can take it for you. If necessary, it can save you once... Well... Remember it only once..." The Ancient Tree of Changsheng said lightly, and when he said that, two leaves fell from the sky. A green leaf was used to give it to the Ancient Tree of Life, and a golden leaf was handed over to Bai Qi.
This brother of the Ancient Tree of Life has a reputation but is always long-lasting. Bai Qi, the powerful Ancient Tree of Changsheng, naturally preserved the things given by Bai Qi. Without saying a word, put two leaves into the space of Jiuyou, and then looked at the Ancient Tree of Changsheng, and the other party shook gently, and a branch swept over and smashed the statue of the Wood God. In an instant, the extremely thick wood aura filled the entire sky. The huge Senluo Jue Realm seemed particularly vibrant, and Bai Qi didn't say much about it. After the other party replied to the form of the ancient tree, he immediately chose to leave. This mysterious existence put too much pressure on Bai Qi. Bai Qi didn't want to stay here for too long, because it was absolutely no benefit to him.
After leaving here and joining his subordinates, Bai Qi asked Malfurion to quickly return to the Vientiane Forest to hand over the leaves to the Ancient Tree of Life, and he led a large group of people to leave the Senluo Jue Realm.
Four months later, Bai Qi had joined a large number of subordinates and masters who were slowly moving towards the imperial capital, and Malfurion also returned to Bai Qi's side on time and followed the brigade of troops towards the imperial capital.
"Your Majesty... Bai Qi has arrived outside the imperial capital and brought a total of 30,000 cavalry. I don't know what to do. Look, should we let his people stay outside first and let him enter the city alone?" In the imperial study room, Prime Minister Besani stood respectfully and looked at the immortal emperor Li Ziming in front of him and said lightly.
"Ahem... what are you afraid of... Bai Qi has 30,000 troops, but I have 500,000 troops in the imperial capital, and there are 700,000 people in the outer capital. Are you still afraid of his 30,000 people? But there are a few more people in the 30,000 people. Tell him to let him enter the city and go to his palace. As for his soldiers, how many soldiers want to bring into the city for him to see by himself, but don't mess up the imperial capital for me... Well... But... Prime Minister, what do you mean by Bai Qi?" Li Ziming, who was sitting on the snow-white fox fur on the central dragon chaise, kept coughing lightly and asked the prime minister beside him.
Li Ziming's body was getting weaker and weaker. Although he had tried his best to hide his condition, it was no longer a secret in the imperial capital. Li Ziming's body was getting worse and worse, and I am afraid he could not support it for long.
"Here... I can't say anything about it, but Your Majesty was a little too impatient before. If he came slowly, there would be no problem. However, Your Majesty's previous performance was really heartbroken. Bai Qi was dissatisfied with him. It was true that he was dissatisfied with him. But he didn't know how he would react. But he thought he still had some concerns if he didn't rebel immediately. If we operate properly, it would be fine if he would slander his military power. But if we do this, Bai Qi must be killed or imprisoned for life, otherwise he might have a stir when he goes out." The Prime Minister pondered for a moment and whispered to Li Ziming. When he said this, he did not have too much concern and said something directly, and even pointed out Li Ziming's mistake. In the entire empire, he was afraid that Prime Minister Besani would dare to say this. If someone else had no courage, even if Li Ziming was terminally ill now, the sick tiger was still a tiger, and the sick tiger could eat people.
"Ahem, I know... this time I'm a little impatient... Even if Bai Qi doesn't think about it, I'm afraid I'll get a little bit after this... Ahem, I can't take risks... You know that my days are not too long... I'm in my office and I can still calm Bai Qi and his subordinates... But... Once I'm gone, I'm afraid no one can calm me... Although the mistress has a good relationship with Bai Qi, for this throne brother, let alone him and Bai Qi. Although the mistress is smart and has a very similar personality, I can't be affected by feelings. When it's time to take action, I'm not going to be affected by love.
He will never be ruthless... Cough cough... But he is too young and has too shallow foundation, and cannot shake Bai Qi, nor can he shake the officials and marshals from all walks of life. The boss is like water and fire with Bai Qi. Once he succeeds the throne, he may be rebelling immediately, so he has to deal with Bai Qi first. No matter whether he wants to rebel or not, no matter who my position is to be passed on, Bai Qi's military power cannot be kept... I have not had much time left... I have no choice... If I take it slowly... I am afraid I will not wait for that day." Li Ziming coughed softly and said helplessly.
"This...ah... I can only take one step at a time, but since the imperial capital has become vain, it will not be a big problem. At worst, I can find a charge to arrest him, then deprive him of his military power and imprison him. Although doing this will inevitably make people criticize you, Your Majesty, but this is the only way." The prime minister sighed and replied, "There is no other way now.
Now Li Ziming's body is no longer good. The huge empire has become particularly chaotic with the decline of Li Ziming's physical condition. The third prince and the prince are ready to move, and the other princes are not at ease. All marshals and governors from all over the country have also begun to move. Many of their strengths are ready to move. If Bai Qi had not just occupied Jia Lan and defeated Tianlong, they and the surrounding small countries would have been ready to move because of this. After all, Li Ziming is the pillar of the immortal dynasty. Once he falls, many people who dare not do anything.
"Well... let's take a look first... If it's not possible, I can only let Bai Qi die suddenly." Li Ziming said in a deep voice, and the cold light flashed in his eyes when he said this.
Although Li Ziming once admired Bai Qi very much and believed that Bai Qi could bring glory to the empire. This is true. Bai Qi brought a large area of territory to the empire and also allowed the empire to ascend to the throne of the world's most powerful country. However, Bai Qi is too powerful and powerful, which makes Li Ziming a little worried. Moreover, Li Ziming now understands that his body is no longer good. Although there are precious medicinal materials and masters from the Temple of Light to help him drag his life, he is actually unable to do so. It won't take long for him to die. So before that, Li Ziming must solve the biggest threat to Bai Qi, the empire. Even if he wants to bring a crooked reputation and criticize him for this, he will do whatever he wants to use those people to kill Bai Qi.
For the long-term survival of the Li family's dynasty and for the prosperity of this immortal dynasty, he had to kill Bai Qi. For Li Ziming, anyone who can sacrifice for the sake of the Li family for thousands of years can be sacrificed, even Bai Qi, the heroic minister, or the prime minister Bethani, who is loyal to him, and even his sons can sacrifice when necessary.
Of course, no third person knew what Li Ziming and the prime minister discussed, nor would there be a third person know about it. This is the top secret among the top secrets.
In the morning of the next day, Bai Qi brought his men into the imperial capital. Although the emperor had ordered Bai Qi to take action, meaning that Bai Qi would bring some people in, Bai Qi was not vague and didn't even want the barracks that had been prepared for him for a long time, so he led 30,000 cavalry into the city with great enthusiasm.
There were not many people coming to greet Bai Qi. Everyone seemed to have received the news that His Majesty was dissatisfied with Bai Qi, the Northwest King, so almost no one came to the plot. The nobles of all sizes and big and small in the Bai Qi imperial capital did not come. However, Bezos, Li Xunhuan, Li Aoxue and Bai Qi's family all arrived here. In addition, there were tens of thousands of people in the city who were greeted by the road.
No matter how the upper class people saw Bai Qi returning to the imperial capital, in their opinion, Bai Qi would lose power when he came back this time, leaving only an empty title, and even everything would be lost. In their opinion, Li Ziming might have to start talking to Bai Qi this time, but these are not important. At least for the residents of the lower class, Bai Qi's return to the imperial capital this time was a thing worthy of the joy of the whole country. Bai Qi... That is the undefeated god of war in their minds. Their hero, because of the Bai Qi Empire, the expansion of territory, because Bai Qi became the empire, and from the empire, it became the most powerful country in the Eastern continent, and the land area has been expanded several times. All this is just Bai Qi's efforts. Bai Qi is not only a hero or an idol in their minds, but even a little deified. So when Bai Qi returned, there were thousands of people in the imperial capital, and Bai Qi warmly welcomed Bai Qi.
Bai Qi led his men to the gate of the imperial capital. After meeting Bezos and Li Xunhuan, everyone greeted him without saying anything extra. After a warm hug with Li Aoxue, Li Xunhuan from the other side walked over with a complicated expression, glanced at Bai Qi in front of him and sighed and said, "Father and all of you are waiting for you in the palace, let's go and have a look first."
"Yeah..." Bai Qi smiled slightly and said nothing. Li Aoxue next to him looked at Li Xunhuan and Bai Qi with a blank look on her face. She didn't know what happened, and no one told her. She just felt that Bai Qi was a little different when she came back this time, and she couldn't say that the specific difference was different. Moreover, her brother seemed to talk to him a little strange, not as generous and kind as before. Although the two of them seemed to be fine, the atmosphere of their conversation was still a little wrong.
But Li Aoxue didn't say anything. She knew that she shouldn't speak at this time. Although she had a lot of things to tell Bai Qi, Li Aoxue still chose to shut up at this time. She decided to wait until Bai Qi saw her father before asking about this matter.
"Haha...I know, I'll go now...Aoxue waits for me to come out of the palace, let's talk about it." Bai Qi smiled slightly, bid farewell to Li Aoxue, Bezos and Li Xunhuan, and left here together. The experts under Bai Qi, as well as Bai Qi's hundreds of personal soldiers and Lao Lihuo and others. As for the others, they were all taken to the Bai family and Bai Qi's palace by the Bai family. Before this, Ali had bought all the houses that Bai Qi's palace sat between the land and the Bai family. Although the two places were only a few streets apart, they also spent millions of gold coins. Of course, there was no reason for doing this. There were no personal soldiers and masters stationed there, and he didn't live next to Bai Qi. Bai Qi was terrible that Li Ziming suddenly attacked the Bai family, which would be troublesome. The children of the Bai family were not the opponents of the elite imperial forces.
Although Li Ziming should not do this, he is not afraid of ten thousand, but is afraid of one, so Bai Qi still needs to be fully prepared.
"I know... you are a little dissatisfied with my father. What my father did is really heartbreaking. You have made a lot of contributions to the empire. You have just made unparalleled achievements, but the father asked you to come back and sent someone to take over your military power and chassis. You didn't even give me a reward. I only gave you a worthless royal palace. This time you came back without someone to welcome you. It would be normal if you had any dissatisfaction. But I hope you can understand that my father also has his difficulties and concerns. He is an emperor and has too many things to consider, so you have to understand him... But don't worry, I will help you to reconcile. Although the military power is gone, you still have titles and fiefs, and wealth and honor are indispensable for a lifetime." Li Xunhuan and Bai Qi rode in front of him, looked at Bai Qi who was silent all the way, and whispered to Bai Qi in front of him.
It has to be said that Bai Qi's dismissal of military power was actually a heavy blow to Li Xunhuan. However, Li Xunhuan had no choice but to admit it, and even had to help his father to fully subdue Bai Qi. Although he was a little unwilling to accept it, he knew that Bai Qi's power is too great now and has threatened the imperial power of the Li family. For this reason, his father had to weaken Bai Qi, and even at the same time weakening himself was unwilling to care.
Compared to speaking, Li Xunhuan, Bezos seemed much silent. At this time, he really didn't know what to say. Both sides were their own people. There was an inevitable and irreconcilable conflict. Bezos really didn't know what he should say, so he chose to shut up. Not helping each other was the best choice, although according to the interests of the Lanling family, he still tended to help Li Xunhuan.
"Haha...it's nothing, it's just military power...I don't care much. Let's talk about it when I see Your Majesty." Bai Qi smiled softly and responded with his expression indifferent, but it gave people a feeling of being indifferent and difficult to get close to.
To be honest, Bai Qi doesn't care about military power at all, nor does he care about imperial power. What else is worth caring about when he reaches Bai Qi's level? Those secular rights are no longer attractive to him. Although Bai Qi needs these soldiers to help him expand his territory and seize more resources to gain more wealth, Bai Qi doesn't care much about who these soldiers belong to, as long as they can help him.
If Li Ziming asked Bai Qi to discuss it carefully, maybe Bai Qi would hand over the military power, so that Li Ziming's people would take charge of the north, as long as they search for resources during the battle, they would listen to Bai Qi's orders when they could get benefits and continue to improve. Bai Qi was not really so serious and rare, but Li Ziming's actions made Bai Qi feel heartbroken and made Bai Qi dissatisfied...
