Chapter 245 The Wind Gradually Changes

"What a raging fire..."

In the office, Zeng Yunhe read the contents of the secret letter with a frown on his brow.

Sighing softly like this, Zeng Yunhe suddenly raised his head and looked at Gu Qinghan thoughtfully.

"You're just going to give it to me like this? You don't plan to do anything with the secret letter?"

When saying this, Zeng Yunhe was like a martial arts master performing a fake move. The words hung there vaguely, making people feel that no matter how they responded, there was a big pit ahead.

When hearing this question, Gu Qinghan's expression never changed at all, and she still spoke with a smile.

“Why would I do anything with it?
It is said that he acts on behalf of the leader and is in charge of all matters concerning the Holy Religion in the state.

But I know what really happened behind the scenes, and you know it too, Mr. Zeng.

Some words should just be said and done for outsiders to hear and see.

Do I really want to regard myself as the leader of the Holy Church's branch in Qizhou?

The reason why you and I take risks and do things like this today is nothing more than to plot against the resources, channels, and foundation of the Holy Religion.

Mr. Zeng, there is no need to test me like this.

If I want to maintain the current situation where I can get along with everyone without any danger, I still need to rely a lot on you, Mr. Zeng.

Why would I want to make enemies with you, Mr. Zeng, over something like this?

Moreover, this is not a trivial matter, but I think there is really no need for the Holy Church to overreact to this.

Many old people in the church today really don’t understand clearly—

What is now truly hindering the development of the Holy Church is no longer the increasingly weak and illusory Tiandu Taoist Temple lineage and the remnants of the Beiting Protectorate.

What really hinders the continued development of the Holy Religion are the aristocratic families that have taken root in the vast land of the northern states.

Unfortunately, probably in the past in Beiting Protectorate, the predecessors of the Holy Church and the Tiandu Taoist Temple had already formed a blood feud. This is an old grudge that has been passed down for generations!
The accumulation of this kind of emotion has in fact caused many of the mainstays of the Holy Church today to still follow the inertia of previous hatred.

This was the case when Luo Zhaoqing targeted Yue Hanzhang and cost the life of the late Saint in vain; this was the case when the Ding family targeted the various military families; this was even the case when the Holy Church conspired together to take over Jichuan County!
The Saints' Sects have been fighting each other with the Tiandu Taoist Temple for too many years, and the ones who have always reaped the benefits are the aristocratic families in the various states.

Now, as the path created by Qin Linhui is spreading again, will the Holy Church have any fierce reaction, or even a real fight with real swords and guns?

Shouldn't the aristocratic families be the ones who should be upset about what Qin Linhui did?
Shouldn't the other families be the ones that should have an irreconcilable rift with the current military family? !
Although it is inevitable that Qin Linhui's new doctrine will have to go through the purification of blood and fire if it is to spread all over the prairie, why must the Holy Church be the one to pay the price?

Why would the Holy Church rush to be used as a gun by others?
On the contrary, when the aristocratic families in the prefecture really start to quarrel with the military families, and there is no peace within the three departments, then the huge Qizhou will be in a turbulent state, and that will be the time for the Holy Church to run rampant!
If you and I want to cling to the authority of the Holy Church to gain more, we must not put the Holy Church in the most dangerous situation.

You are a senior with a lot of experience, so you must understand this truth.

At this moment, it is better to be still than to move, and it is better to do less than to do more. "

When I heard this.

Zeng Yunhe shook his head with emotion.

"If you are the one who truly rules the Holy Church, it will be the luckiest thing for the Holy Church in this era.

It’s a pity…but fortunately…you are not the one who really controls it…”

As he said this, Zeng Yunhe paced slowly on the spot.

"Luo Zhaoqing's power and authority must be further tightened!

Without mentioning others, Luo Zhaoqing is exactly the kind of person you, Miss Qinghan, described. He is the person in the Holy Church who still has inertia and stubborn hatred for everything about the Tiandu Taoist Temple!
If he knew about the actions of the Bingdao family, he would definitely make all kinds of extreme reactions in Jichuan County!

Even more, when things become uncontrollable, such a great holy religion, you and I, will be dragged down by the trend!
But it is no longer realistic to transfer him away from Jichuan County. Not only will it easily alert the enemy, but our prestige in the church is not high enough to do such a thing.

And his outburst would almost be inevitable.

Nothing can be kept secret. Once the noble family knows about it, it means that Luo Zhaoqing will also know about it.

We must weaken his foundation again and again before he has any reaction, and no one can say anything about the open power struggle within the church."

Hearing this, Gu Qinghan nodded thoughtfully.

She immediately looked down at the two bodies on the ground.

"In that case, let's start with these two.

Tell Luo Zhaolan that there is a spy trained by Luo Zhaoqing in the past who tried to assassinate me today. I want the Luo family to give an explanation for this matter!
At the very least, the spy that Luo Zhaoqing left in the provincial capital must either be handed over by Luo Zhaolan or driven out of the provincial capital!
By the way... let Luo Zhaolan realize a 'fact' - Luo Zhaoqing's downfall is inevitable, but the Luo family must have a spokesperson in the Holy Church, right?

Why can't this person be him?

Of course, Luo Zhaolan might have to... give a pledge of allegiance or something like that for this..."

As he spoke, a meaningful smile emerged on Gu Qinghan's face, and the coldness in his eyes even made Zeng Yunhe's brows tremble.

"Mr. Zeng, I'm too familiar with the people of the aristocratic families. When they're fighting among themselves, that's when these scum are most vicious!"

After hearing this, it took Zeng Yunhe more than ten breaths to slowly digest and absorb the ruthlessness in Gu Qinghan's words.

Even for someone as experienced as Zeng Yunhe, he thought that his understanding of the sinister and treacherous side of the aristocratic families might not be as thorough as Gu Qinghan's.

Suddenly, he seemed to remember that the person in front of him was the one who had fought his way out of that gloomy den of evil.

Zeng Yunhe slowly gathered his mind and nodded, and continued, "This plan is feasible, but it is one thing to weaken Luo Zhaoqing's power, and on the other hand, it is also necessary to delay the opportunity for the noble families to see through this matter.

Although it is only a matter of time before the secret is leaked, if it is leaked one day later, the fire will burn more fiercely!
Moreover, it is the northern states that are facing the offensive of the demon clan, not just Qizhou. Even our Qizhou is not the main force in the confrontation!
The situation is changing. Who knows, if things drag on for too long, until something earth-shattering happens somewhere else, the aristocratic families will have no choice but to support the reforms initiated by the Bingdao family.

A crisis will become a small-scale fluctuation.

And this fire that spreads all over the prairie... Hey!"

Having said this, Zeng Yunhe looked towards Gu Qinghan solemnly.

"You have tamed Zhang Xiandao, so the channel for the Zhang family to support military supplies is in your hands, right?

Send this letter back to anyone and pretend that there was an error in the delivery of the secret letter, and send it back to the Zhenyuan Army!
At this critical juncture, all network communications are unreliable.

Only by using this method of alerting them can we make them vigilant!"

Even if the leak happens only for one night, it's good.

And on the spot, Gu Qinghan nodded very solemnly.

"it is good!"

“Oh, and if Luo Zhaoqing really reacts in Jichuan County, the provincial government will definitely take action.

The bigger the hole he makes, the more intense the state government's reaction will be. By then, even Donghua Taoist Temple will take action in response.

I plan to secretly urge some of the 'Resurrected Saints' in Donghua Taoist Temple not to conceal their talents, but to break through to the extraordinary realm as early as possible.

At that time, once something happens, it will appear that you did not do nothing, but rather made some predictions and arrangements in advance.

It is not wrong to act conservatively, but it is wrong to do nothing.

The place where you and I stand is just a castle in the air, don't let others find faults in you easily."

Hearing this, Gu Qinghan nodded repeatedly.

When it comes to being a spy, or concealing secrets from the world, Zeng Yunhe is a true veteran.

His careful considerations also made Gu Qinghan feel relieved for no reason.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Mr. Zeng, with the matters concerning the sage."
-
A few days later, late at night.

In the spacious room, Huang Zhishu had fallen into a deep sleep.

And through the half-open door leading to the balcony, at this moment, Yue Hanzhang was wearing a plain robe, leaning on the open-air balcony, as if quietly admiring the moon.

But from Yue Hanzhang's perspective, at this moment, a torrent of sea light was gathering in the air and then pouring down.

Two thousand...

Almost at the moment when the torrent of light began to condense, Yue Hanzhang had already made an accurate judgment.

Strange to say.

Originally, after the two thousand torrents that day, Yue Hanzhang thought that the follow-up would be the beginning of a large-scale torrent, just like the huge torrent formed by the six thousand soldiers at the beginning.

Because as far as he knew, among the military organizations, except for the disciplinary battalion and the logistics battalion, which had an indefinite quota, the rest of the troops used the battalion as the standard unit for large-scale group combat.

Although the number of sergeants in a battalion fluctuates, the full quota of 6,000 sergeants in a reserve battalion is the minimum standard.

Yue Hanzhang has already prepared for such a "feat" as refining more than ten thousand Taoist seals in one day.

But what Yue Hanzhang had never expected was what would happen in the next few days.

Sure enough, the torrent of light began to gather and condense again and it was indeed true.

But almost every time, there were only about two thousand people, and at most, it never exceeded three thousand people.

And, from the second time on.

Never once, not once did it emerge and condense before midnight.

It was as if... Yue Hanzhang seemed to see the military camp in the distance, the night shrouding the silent military camp, and then a small group of more than 2,000 people quietly looking for a place to gather, and then under the protection of the night and sleep, trying to break through and advance.

how to say.

The feeling of stealing is a little bit heavy.

But Yue Hanzhang didn't believe that the cultivator in charge of military affairs would be a person with a strong sense of stealing.

What exactly prompted them to do this?
When I was thinking so confusedly.

Yue Hanzhang slowly withdrew his gaze.

He brushed his hand across his armor, and then, on the light screen that popped up, he saw the news forum that he was just reading halfway.

But when looking at the light screen, Yue Hanzhang's brows, which were furrowed with confusion, did not relax at all.

He seemed to have seen something puzzling——

"Latest news from Redstone.com: At about 5pm yesterday, the first battalion of the Yanzhou Jiuguan Army was ambushed by a large group of demons, and unfortunately the entire battalion was killed."
