Extreme Eternal Demon

Taiyuan City.

It is the largest city in Guanlong.

To the west is the huge and vast grassland, and to the east is the Taiyuan Road, which leads directly to the hinterland of the Central Plains.

It forms a line with Tianshui City and Hulun City to the north and south, which just separates the grassland and the Central Plains from each other, and completely forms a dividing line.

If the nomads on the grassland want to enter the Central Plains, they must pass through one of these three cities.

True to its name, Taiyuan City and others are a huge line of defense in the west of the Central Plains.

Taiyuan City is the middlemost city among the three cities. Its geographical location is quite advantageous. Whether it is supporting Hulun City or supporting Tianshui City, it is the closest.

In addition, its location is between two mountain ranges, which is equivalent to a giant standing on a narrow road, with the momentum that one man can block the way and no one can open it.

Therefore, it bears the brunt and is the most critical and important defensive place in the northwest.

Naturally, the important people in the northwest, whether they are officials or the Guanlong army, are centered around Taiyuan City and radiate outwards, and this is the base camp of all the people from Guanlong.

At this moment.

Li Wuyou has arrived in Taiyuan City.

However, he did not show up with much fanfare. Instead, he hid his presence and landed in a jungle somewhere outside Taiyuan City.

There were still obvious traces of impact on the ground, with dense cracks and countless gravel flying in the distance. Some of the surrounding trees and grass were broken, lifted, and torn apart.

Li Wuyou put on ordinary people's clothes. He looked like a very ordinary old man, and with his own aura covering him up, he was very difficult to detect.

He walked out of the forest and walked directly along Taiyuan Road towards Taiyuan City.

We are very close to Taiyuan City, and we can clearly see the city from a distance. The huge and towering city wall stands on the vast plain, like a wild beast entrenched here.

The black body has a bloody mouth, and the Taiyuan Road is like the tongue of a beast. It spits out and devours all the people who are preparing to enter Taiyuan City.

Because it was relatively close to Taiyuan City, Li Wuyou could also see many people entering Taiyuan City, including ordinary people, walking businessmen, and some vendors and vendors.

These people live in Taiyuan City. They go out in the morning to work on their farmland. In the afternoon, they prepare to go back to the city to rest while the sky is still bright.

Li Wuyou mingled among the crowd, listening to people's conversations and feeling the atmosphere of Taiyuan City. At the same time, he also listened to some news intentionally or unintentionally.

He just listened to the news and didn't pay much attention to it.

Because some people from Dongchang have already arrived in Taiyuan City. These people are responsible for inquiring about information. They must have found out the situation in Taiyuan City clearly.

Li Wuyou just stopped by to listen.

It’s not about what these messages can bring on their own.

"You won't come out tomorrow, will you?"

"Yes, who would come out on such a nice day tomorrow? If you don't eat free meat and fish, you would be a fool."

"Haha, I heard that there is a troupe specially invited from Jiangnan to sing for three days and three nights. This is something I have never seen before. You must go and see it!"

The people passing by seemed to be talking about a similar thing, and the expressions on their faces were a little expectant and a little excited.

Li Wuyou listened carefully and discovered the whole story.

It turns out that tomorrow is the day when the messenger from the grassland comes to get married.

These people definitely don't know the specific situation, but they do know the result.

Xiong Chengde's daughter, Xiong Dai, was getting married to a leader on the grassland, and because of this marriage, the grassland also made a promise not to use force against Guanlong within a hundred years.

Ensure the peaceful coexistence between grassland and Guanlong.

At the same time, Xiong Chengde also made a promise to establish another trading place between Taiyuan, Hulun and Tianshui City, specifically for trade between grassland and Guanlong.

In order to promote the progress and development of both Guanlong and grassland, and jointly create prosperity.

This is something that is beneficial to everyone. The most important thing is that it can stabilize the situation in Guanlong and completely bring peace to the people.

Guanlong existed in the northwest of the Zhou Dynasty for countless years.

From these countless years of history, one thing can be known, that is, Guanlong, as the junction between the Central Plains and the northwest grasslands, and as a boundary line for the Central Plains to resist the nomadic peoples on the northwest grasslands, is He truly suffered from countless wars.

And even if there is no big war, there will definitely be small wars.

Every autumn harvest, the nomadic people on the grassland will take advantage of the crisp autumn weather and the plump and strong war horses on the grassland, and then come to Guanlong to fight in the autumn wind.

Looting villages, food, women, etc. everywhere.

Happens almost every year.

Although the Guanlong Army also vigorously stopped and attacked the nomads, the situation did not decrease much, and the people still suffered greatly.

In addition to these small autumn fights, there are also some large-scale wars.

Hundreds of years after the establishment of the Great Zhou Dynasty, there have been countless large and small wars with the nomadic peoples on the grasslands.

Both sides have their own victories and defeats.

But no matter who wins or loses, it is the people of Guanlong who suffer in the end. They are robbed by war after war, losing their families, friends, and wealth.

They hate war to the extreme.

Now, the nomadic people on the grassland are going to make peace with the Xiong family in Guanlong. Although this marriage is a bit abnormal and not in line with common sense, it can avoid war.

People don't care much about these things.

The nomads do not have to marry Emperor He, and the same goes for marrying the Xiong family. Anyway, whoever can bring peace to Guanlong is a truly good person.

Whoever can get the support and love of the people of Guanlong.

This is what the Xiong family is like at this moment.

Since they came to Guanlong, they have done a lot of good things for the people of Guanlong, developing the economy, reducing taxes, etc., and various measures to continuously improve the living standards of the people of Guanlong.

And now, marrying his own daughter to a nomad on the grassland is simply a sacrifice.

Letting their daughter exchange for the peace and prosperity of Guanlong and the stability and well-being of the people is a great sacrifice for the Xiong family, which makes the people of Guanlong extremely grateful to them.

He is also loved very much.

"Marriage?"

Li Wuyou mingled among the crowd, and while listening to people's conversations, he walked into the gate of Taiyuan City.

As soon as you enter, you can hear the mighty noise.

It was as if there was a beast shouting and cheering here. The feeling was particularly spectacular and magnificent.

Everywhere you see is very lively and prosperous.

The faces of the people on the street, the common people, and the vendors, were all filled with happiness and joy, and there were many children playing and playing on the street.

It looks very lively.

And it gives people a feeling of peace and prosperity.

Perhaps, the situation here is no worse than that of Jiangnan, and it can even compete with Chang'an City, the most prosperous city in the Zhou Dynasty.

"This Xiong Chengde does have some means of managing the city!"

Li Wuyou looked at this situation and couldn't help but admire him in his heart.

Ten years ago, Taiyuan City was still a small and remote city. Many people were unwilling to come here because the nomads from the grasslands in the northwest often came to fight and harass.

However, Xiong Chengde has changed the appearance of this place in just ten years since he came here.

This man is really capable of governing the world.

If he were allowed to govern the Great Zhou Dynasty, he would definitely be more powerful than the current emperor and the current ministers in the court. The Great Zhou Dynasty should be quite prosperous and powerful.

However, many people in the court were afraid that Xiong Chengde would be too powerful and prestigious, and that the world would not know about the emperor, but would only know about the Xiong family.

Therefore, due to various reasons, Xiong Chengde brought many of his confidants to this remote place.

At the same time, he also truly established his own strength.

Whether it is military power or power in the DPRK, a large number of people are now influenced by him.

He actually already has the opportunity to seize Huangquan.

"Although letting you be the emperor is definitely a better choice for the Zhou Dynasty and the world, it is not for me."

Li Wuyou said silently in his heart,

"What I want is the faith of the people in the world and the national destiny of the entire Zhou Dynasty. If I don't have these, how can I reach the gate of heaven?"

"So, I can only get rid of you, and also completely discredit your Xiong family, so that all the faith and luck you gained will disappear."

"It's all transferred to me."

"Xiong Chengde!"

"You have to be prepared!"

Li Wuyou smiled fiercely, and then continued to mix in the crowd, walking towards the distance. After a short time, he had disappeared into the crowd on the street.

He wanted to find a place to live first, and then go to Dongchang's station here to meet his subordinates and confirm some information about the wedding banquet.

And learn more about the details, and prepare to do something at this wedding banquet.

Let the Xiong family break with the Guanlong nomads in the northwest.

It doesn't even matter if it starts a war.

As long as the Xiong family loses the support of the grassland nomads, he will also lose the support of the Guanlong people.

that's enough.

After the Xiong family lost the support of both sides, even if he tried to keep Guan Longjun in charge, it would be of no use. All he had to do was deal with him casually, and Guan Longjun wouldn't dare to do anything else!

At worst, all the people in the Guan Long Army who were loyal to the Xiong family could be dealt with.

Don't give them any chance to breathe.

…

same moment.

Bear family!

Because Xiong Chengde's only daughter was getting married, and she was going to marry a nomadic tribe in the northwest.

This is a very grand event and a very important matter for the Xiong family.

At this moment.

The entire Xiong family has been shrouded in a ball of red, all of which are festive colors. The servants up and down are also busy, decorating the Xiong family inside and outside, and cleaning everything in the Xiong family. .

It makes the Xiong family look really bright and beautiful.

In the back house of the Xiong family, Xiong Chengde and Xiong Dai were sitting together.

This is a back garden.

As one of the most powerful families in the entire Taiyuan City and even the entire Zhou Dynasty, the Xiong family built a very luxurious back garden.

Exotic flowers and plants were all difficult to grow in the northwest, but Xiong Chengde hired skilled craftsmen to transfer them here.

Then plant successfully here.

At first glance, there is no difference between this place and the prosperous and blooming scenes in Jiangnan.

And it seems to be even better because of the wide variety of these exotic flowers and plants.

Among this land of exotic flowers and plants is a rockery, which is also made of rare stones. It shows the wealth and luxury of the Xiong family everywhere.

Under the rockery is a pavilion.

Inside the octagonal pavilion, there were Xiong Chengde and Xiong Dai talking.

Xiong Chengde is an old man over fifty years old. Because he has been busy with court affairs and the construction and development of Guanlong these years, his face looks older than his age.

He has a head full of white hair, beard and hair, and there are still many wrinkles on his face and forehead. He looks a little old, but his eyes are shining.

It makes people feel like they dare not look directly.

Opposite him was Xiong Dai, the only daughter of the Xiong family who was about to get married.

This woman is also extremely stunning, with a pair of eyebrows and eyes that are simply unparalleled in the world. Both her figure and face are almost perfect, and more importantly, she has a heroic aura about her.

This Xiong Dai is not just a simple Xiaojiabiyu.

She was born in the Xiong family, and received a strict education from Xiong Chengde since she was a child. She has dabbled in poetry, astronomy, geography, music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and is almost a perfect lady for everyone.

On the other hand, she also learned martial arts. When she was a teenager, she even disguised herself as a man and was sent to Guan Long's army for some training.

This gave Xiong Dai an aura that ordinary women couldn't see.

The cold and decisive force of killing.

At first glance, she is also a heroine, an almost indescribable heroic woman.

However, at this moment, the woman's face looked a little unhappy, and there was even a bit of melancholy and sadness that could not be concealed.

She was unhappy because she was about to marry the leader of the nomadic tribe.

Xiong Dai has lived in the Central Plains since she was a child, enjoying the treatment of the Xiong family that is almost as good as the royal palace. No woman in the entire world can have such treatment as her.

Now, it is to go to the northwest nomadic grassland.

She couldn't accept it in her heart.

Moreover, she disliked the leader of the nomadic tribe very much...
