Chapter 1703 Alliance

The inner court.

Peach's room.

Li Ziye and Concubine Wen talked for a long time.

The situation is quite harmonious.

The reason Li Ziye dared to take Concubine Wen's move was because he had obtained enough information from Mu Qing.

In the past, the Li family would never have dared to take the initiative to contact Concubine Wen.

Who dares to doubt his loyalty to a pawn who has served Emperor Shang for more than twenty years and is willing to live in darkness.

If Concubine Wen is absolutely loyal to Emperor Shang, then the Li family's initiative to contact Concubine Wen is undoubtedly courting death.

This was also the reason why Li Ziye wanted to encourage the eleventh prince and Concubine Wen to be honest with each other.

The biggest purpose is to get more information about Concubine Wen from the Eleventh Prince.

Women are inherently weak, but mothers are strong. The moment Mu Qing took out the Hunyuan Pearl, Li Ziye understood that Concubine Wen loved her child deeply.

Although a bit cruel, in Li Ziye's view, the relationship between mother and child is the most reliable bargaining chip in the world, and also the easiest to use.

Concubine Wen, while being used as a pawn by the royal family, could not escape the use of the Li family after all.

The only difference is that he promised the eleventh prince to protect Concubine Wen's life.

He may have told countless lies in his life, but he would never break his promise on a fair deal.

This is the foundation of the Li family and the most basic principle of a businessman.

"Jiaoxi Li, why do you think that the Hunyuan Pearl can't protect Mu Qing's life?" In the room, Fan Wenzhen looked at the third son of the Li family in front of him and asked.

"Young lady, I have been to the extreme north."

Li Ziye said calmly, "There, I saw a night ghost, and I dug out the fake Hunyuan pearl in the night ghost's body."

Fan Wenzhen's expression was shocked after hearing the former's answer.

Although they had already speculated about this matter, it was still shocking to hear Li Jiaoxi admitting it with their own ears.

"The Hunyuan Pearl may be able to influence the night ghost to a certain extent, but the effect is not as great as imagined, right, Concubine Wen?"

Li Ziye looked at the woman in front of him and asked, "Otherwise, that night ghost in the extreme north would not be as irrational as a monster."

"Li Jiaoxi is unparalleled in wisdom, and I admire him."

Fan Wenzhen sighed softly, and said, "The Hunyuan Pearl really doesn't have a significant ability to control the night ghost, it can only be used as a support."

"There are Hunyuan beads first in the world, and then there are night ghosts. It's not surprising that Hunyuan beads don't have much effect on night ghosts."

Li Ziye responded calmly, "Originally, the Hunyuan Orb was not a treasure created to deal with night ghosts, but no matter how bad this thing is, it is better than nothing. If it can be mass-produced, maybe it can really play a role." miraculous."

"The words of Mr. Li are exactly the same as what His Majesty said at the beginning."

Fan Wenzhen said with a complex expression, "Actually, from the manufacture of the night ghost to the copying of the Hunyuan bead, they are all just experiments, and no one knows what the result will be."

"Playing with fire, I understand."

Li Ziye smiled and said, "I want to ask my mother a question, is the royal family still unable to mass-produce Hunyuan beads?"

"No."

Fan Wenzhen replied truthfully, "Manufacturing Hunyuan beads in batches requires a large amount of Cullinan phosphite. The quantity of this thing is extremely small and it is difficult to collect. So far, the people sent by the royal family have not gained much."

"Celestial Phosphorite?"

Hearing this, Li Ziye narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "If you want to control Ye Gui, only imitation Hunyuan beads are definitely not enough. I think the method of making Netherland should be the key. Thousands of years ago, Taoist masters were conferring gods. After the war of war was almost over, they gradually lost their minds. The time span in the middle is not short, but the production of Ye Gui did not take too long, and with the assistance of the Hunyuan Orb, Ye Gui still couldn't keep his sanity. , The production level of night ghosts is very rough, compared with the Netherland thousands of years ago, it is not a star and a half worse."

Speaking of this, Li Ziye paused, and continued, "From the situation of Netherland and Night Ghost, there is not much difference between the two. If there is a method of making Netherland, we can change and improve it on the basis to create a Higher-level night ghosts should not be difficult, after all, it is always easier to imitate this kind of thing than to create, and the royal family has Taishang, the founder of the underworld, so there is no reason why the creation of night ghosts has not been successful."

After hearing the former's analysis, Fan Wenzhen fell silent. After a while, he nodded and said, "Li Jiaoxi guessed right. The royal family has indeed not obtained the method of making Netherland. The ancestors never told me about the method of making Netherland. anyone."

On the side, Taotao put hot tea for the two of them again, without saying a word, just sat there quietly.

Li Ziye picked up the tea, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, the smile was meaningful.

This is the source of the royal conflict.

One is imperial power, the other is salvation, and it is impossible to reconcile.

"It seems that it is not so easy for the Li family to enter this game." Li Ziye said after taking a sip of hot tea.

"It's really not easy."

Fan Wenzhen nodded and said, "I can't imagine how the Li family will enter the game. After all, what the Li family has, the royal family also has. Regardless of manpower or material resources, the royal family is no worse than the Li family. It is impossible for the royal family to be hostile to the Li family." Let the Li family participate in this matter."

"As long as the empress is willing to help, in fact, it's not that difficult."

Li Ziye said something, put down the teacup, then passed the beads in his hand, and said calmly, "This is the bargaining chip."

"Hunting Yuanzhu?"

Fan Wenzhen frowned, and asked inexplicably, "What is Li Jiaoxi's intention?"

"Your Majesty, take a closer look." Li Ziye reminded.

Hearing this, Fan Wenzhen took a closer look at the bead in the former's hand again, suddenly, his expression was shocked, and he said in disbelief, "This is not the Hunyuan bead of my concubine, is it?"

"This is indeed not a Hunyuan Pearl."

Li Ziye smiled and replied, "This is the soul-suppressing bead. It looks very similar to the Hunyuan bead. Most people can't tell the difference. What's more interesting is that this thing is very useful for controlling monsters such as Netherland and Night Ghost. It also has a certain auxiliary effect, the empress thinks, is this enough as a bargaining chip for the Li family to enter the game?"

"Unbelievable."

Fan Wenzhen suppressed the shock in his heart, and said, "It turns out that the legends are true, and the soul-suppressing pearl and the Hunyuan pearl are really the same."

"As long as your majesty tells His Majesty that the effect of the soul suppressing pearl on night ghosts is likely to be higher than that of the Hunyuan pearl, then it will be very easy for the Li family to enter the game." Li Ziye smiled.

"Professor Li."

After a brief shock, Fan Wenzhen came back to his senses, looked at the person in front of him, and said in a deep voice, "Are you really not afraid that I will tell His Majesty what happened today?"

"Your Majesty won't do that."

Li Ziye smiled and said, "Let's not talk about it, let's not talk about the disaster of night ghosts. Judging from the current situation, the empress may be able to live in the darkness forever and be willing to be a pawn, but what about His Royal Highness? The empress is sure." We also want to win some more bargaining chips for His Highness the Eleventh, right? The Li family is this bargaining chip!"

It is conceivable that if the time is ripe, Concubine Wen is very likely to become an abandoned son of the royal family, and Mu Qing will definitely be implicated at that time.

The Li family is one of the few bargaining chips that Concubine Wen can choose.

On the opposite side of the tea table, Fan Wenzhen heard the words of the third son of the Li family in front of him, and his face changed several times. After ten breaths, he nodded and replied with a heavy expression, "deal!"
