Chapter 342: Making a Mistake
Wang Lang felt that Zhu Xiyue's words were not very reliable.
Wang Lang simply didn't believe that she had no involvement in the Ming Empire Emperor's attack on Shanhai Pavilion.
Wang Lang understood it very well.
Relatively speaking, Zhu Xiyue knew her best. Even if she was not favored or valued in the imperial family of the Ming Empire, if the emperor and the crown prince of the Ming Empire wanted to deal with her, they would definitely refer to Zhu Xiyue's opinion.
Unless the Emperor of the Ming Empire, the Crown Prince, and other princes and princes of the royal family are all idiots.
Otherwise, they would never rashly offend me.
There is also the matter of the Sixth Prince harassing Qimanguli. Zhu Xiyue said that she couldn't do anything about it, but that was pure nonsense.
If she had told the Sixth Prince about her identity and her relationship with Qimanguli, the situation today would never have happened.
If the Sixth Prince knew my identity, he would definitely make friends with me instead of trying to steal my girl.
Although he didn't believe it, Wang Lang didn't say much.
Many things are understood by those who understand, and there is no need to state them explicitly.
What he wanted today was to solve the problem, not to argue endlessly about who was targeting him and Shanhai Pavilion and why.
At this time, Zhu Xiyue continued speaking.
"Now all I can do is manage this monastic academy well and train monks faster and better. I have no say in the recruitment and training of other monastic academies."
"Besides that, my other rights are to mobilize some soldiers to cooperate with you, Brother Lang, to eliminate the monsters that appear near the capital, and to trade with you for training resources, weapons, and protective equipment."
"I have also tried to persuade my father and the crown prince several times, but to little avail. However, I also hope that you can understand more. After all, the power of the monks is too strong. If too many monks are out of control, it is very likely to cause social unrest and national chaos. If that happens, it will be the ordinary people who will suffer."
Wang Lang still agreed with what Zhu Xiyue said now.
Not to mention the uncontrollable power of monks, even if ordinary people were out of control, it would very likely cause social unrest and national chaos.
Isn't this how all the uprisings and rebellions in history came about?
However, although they agree, the two sides are in different positions after all. Of course, it can also be said that they are in opposing positions.
So, although he understood the suppression of his Shanhai Pavilion by the royal family of the Ming Empire, he absolutely did not want this suppression to continue.
Wang Lang turned to look at Zhu Xiyue and spoke directly.
"I can understand what you just said, but understanding is one thing and the malicious suppression of my Shanhai Pavilion by the royal family of the Ming Empire must not continue."
"Now I solemnly tell you again, everything I do now and in the future is just to help your Ming Empire better resist the invasion of alien beasts and demon beasts, and better protect ordinary people. I have no interest in your Ming Empire. Maybe when your Ming Empire is able to resist the invasion of demon beasts and alien beasts alone, I will never enter your Ming Empire again. Therefore, you don't need to worry that I will change the dynasty and overthrow your Zhu family's Ming Empire."
"What happened in the past is over, and I don't want to pursue it any further. But if the royal family of the Ming Empire continues to maliciously suppress my Shanhai Pavilion and prevents my Shanhai Pavilion from training more cultivators faster and better, then I will definitely not tolerate your nonsense any longer."
After a slight pause, Wang Lang continued speaking.
"Sister, I believe you are most aware of my strength. Although I can only stay in your Ming Empire for twelve hours each time, these twelve hours are enough for me to overthrow the royal family of your Ming Empire."
"At worst, we can just kill a group of people, shock a group of people, and then support a puppet. Even if the Ming Empire will be somewhat turbulent, it is much better than watching the royal family of the Ming Empire committing suicide crazily."
"Okay, okay, no problem."
As she spoke, Zhu Xiyue, somewhat excited, hugged Wang Lang's right arm.
At the same time, Zhu Xiyue continued to speak.
"Brother Lang, don't worry. This time, I will risk breaking up with my father and my brother, the Crown Prince, and I will give them a strong advice. The worst that can happen is a complete falling out."
"If that doesn't work, then for the sake of the common people in the Ming Empire, no matter what you want to do, Brother Lang, I will support you. However, after all, we are all a family, and I hope that Brother Lang can spare the lives of my father, the crown prince, and other relatives by then."
"Xiyue has been in love with you since the first time she saw you, Brother Lang. If it really comes to the last resort, I hope Brother Lang can consider me as an admirer and not be too ruthless."
As she spoke, Zhu Xiyue's entire body was leaning on Wang Lang.
Smelling the faint fragrance of Zhu Xiyue and feeling the softness of her little hands and body, Wang Lang's blood immediately boiled.
His pants tightened and he immediately raised the flag to salute. At the same time, his blood boiled and his whole body burned hot. He subconsciously raised his left arm to hold Zhu Xiyue's shoulders.
After realizing something was wrong, Wang Lang quickly suppressed the impulse in his heart and retracted his left hand. He then spoke to divert his attention.
"Don't worry, sister. As long as the royal family of your Ming Empire puts itself in the right position and serves the people wholeheartedly, I will definitely not go that far. What I want to do is to let the people of your Ming Empire survive well. The rest doesn't matter."
"To be honest, you royal family are really confused. Your focus now should be on resisting those monsters and strange beasts, instead of fighting for power and profit."
"Now the foggy border is spreading outward every day. Every day, dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of magical beasts rush into the Ming Empire. Maybe in a month, maybe in half a year, or even tomorrow, a large number of magical beasts and alien beasts will invade your Ming Empire in a large scale."
"If you don't have the power to resist the invasion of those monsters and alien beasts at that time, then what's the point of fighting for power? I hope you can think about it carefully."
After a slight pause, Wang Lang continued speaking.
"I won't say more about this. Did your 18,000-year-old Snow Feather Horse end up in the hands of your sixth brother because of some preference for boys over girls?"
To be honest, Wang Lang was completely at a loss for words at this time.
Now that the most important issue of the suppression of Shanhai Pavilion has been resolved, all other problems are no longer a problem.
Wang Lang brought up this matter at this time simply because he wanted to talk and divert his attention.
With Zhu Xiyue leaning against him, Wang Lang's blood boiling became even more serious. If he didn't divert his attention, he felt that he would probably make a mistake.
