Chapter 211: The domineering father-in-law beats up the emperor, and the sixth Taoist priest adds fuel to the fire
Baiyue.
Princess House.
Pu Minglong had not gone out for several days. After the defeat in the Rongzhou battle, his prestige in Baiyue was severely damaged.
Especially Mu Jianting under his command.
He had boasted for a long time that he was “the best general of Baiyue”.
As a result, after the battle, he was ridiculed by the civil and military officials of the Baiyue Kingdom as the most barren person among the Baiyue Kingdom.
On the contrary, the third prince, who had always been in a weak position, disregarded his personal reputation and pleaded with Qin Muye in times of crisis. His reputation suddenly reversed and he was directly regarded as a "benevolent monarch", with his fame catching up with that of the crown prince before his death.
"Damn Qin Muye!"
Pu Minglong couldn't help but curse. He felt that meeting Qin Muye in his life was extremely unlucky.
If it weren't for this heaven-defying bastard, with my own layout, I could at least become a local lord.
Good luck.
He can even plot the collapse of the Demon King Palace and the Qian Kingdom, and then take control of the Central Plains himself.
As a result, now, not only does he have to hide in Baiyue, but he is also being controlled by the stupid fox hired by the charlatan.
After preparing for the Rongzhou battle for so long, we were beaten like dogs by Qin Muye's dogs.
Who can stand this?
It is true that the bloodline of God's messenger is strong.
But this bastard's strength has nothing to do with the bloodline of God's messenger!
This father and son pair is truly amazing. Qin Kaijiang broke through to become a god of war by fulfilling his talent, and the transplant of God's blood was just the icing on the cake.
When it comes to Qin Muye, all kinds of puzzling and outrageous methods are used.
Two years ago in Lingnan, a group of people were beaten to tears by a walking man like me.
Two years later, he is fucking beating himself!
Can't even think about it.
I can't sleep because I'm so angry when I think about it.
Now, both his own power in Baiyue and the entire Baiyue were in a state of extreme depression.
A wave of street fighting gave the Baiyue soldiers nightmares. Even though the emperor ordered the news to be blocked, the fear of mechanical wolves spread across the country like a plague.
This has made the morale, which was already somewhat low due to economic sanctions, even worse.
It would probably take an extreme effort to restore morale.
Ding Yu couldn't help but ask: "Brother Long, should we..."
She made a throat-slitting gesture.
Pu Minglong asked: "Who to kill? The Third Prince?"
Ding Yu nodded: "If we let him continue to do this, he might really bring in all the remaining members of the crown prince's gang!"
"Then let him gather them!"
"Brother Long!"
Ding Yu was a little anxious. She had contributed a lot to the death of the prince. Once the arrow was shot, there was no turning back. If she didn't sit on the throne, she would die.
Pu Minglong smiled and ruffled her hair: "No hurry! Whether the Third Prince has a high reputation in Baiyue or not, it will not help him in his fight for the throne."
Ding Yu was stunned for a moment: "Why?"
Pu Minglong smiled and said, "Because Baiyue is now facing a crisis of national extinction! The only trump card in your father's hand is my Great Saint Temple. We may seem to have lost the battle of Rongzhou, but in Baiyue, we will always win!"
Ding Yu suddenly understood.
Ever since Bai Yuji came to power in Nanwu City, the suppression of Baiyue has never stopped.
The Baiyue used to be the little bully of the southwestern countries, and they had the ability to beat up anyone they disliked.
Moreover, they carry the orthodox heritage of the Central Plains and are also culturally superior.
But no matter how straight your back is, it can't withstand the backstab of a stupid teammate.
Those tiny countries actually cooperated in suppressing Baiyue just because of the tiny profits given by Qian State.
Although the family financial situation is not bad and they can still hold on for a few more years, the pessimism among the people has become very serious.
The Battle of Rongzhou made the people's morale even more shaky.
To say that the country will be destroyed is not an exaggeration.
It seems that my father has only one choice.
Baiyue.
It will fall into your own hands.
The only difference is morale.
only……
Ding Yu was a little confused: "Brother Long, will Qian Kingdom really collapse?"
“It will collapse!”
Pu Minglong said sternly, "You have seen what Qin Kaijiang has done. He and the little emperor are definitely not as harmonious as they seem. His relationship with Qin Muye is also hostile. If this continues, there is no reason why Qian Kingdom will not be in chaos."
A fierce light flashed in Ding Yu's eyes: "Why don't we just expose the photo stone? This is selling out the country for personal gain. Once the young emperor's dignity is damaged, the princess party will definitely be restless..."
"Don't underestimate Li Xingluo's determination!"
Pu Minglong waved his hands irritably: "And the strongest fighting force of Qian Kingdom must be Qin Kaijiang and Taizu Dharmakaya. Only by letting them fight among themselves can Qian Kingdom really collapse."
"But will they really fight among themselves?"
Ding Yu was a little worried.
Pu Minglong couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth: "Believe in Li Zhixuan!"
Ding Yu: “…”
She vaguely felt that Pu Minglong's trust in Li Zhixuan even exceeded that of Mu Jianting.
What is the gold content of this?
She pursed her lips: "Should we catalyze this process?"
Pu Minglong waved his hand: "It doesn't matter. The old demon king will help. We have been working together for so long, so he should do something, right?"
Ding Yu asked again: "What should we do now?"
"Now?"
Pu Minglong suddenly grabbed the back of her head and pushed her head down: "Everything has been going wrong recently, and I'm very angry!"
……
The Battle of Rongzhou was like a love affair that ended without success.
Before the fight started, both sides paid special attention.
When a fight breaks out, there will be quite a few people gossiping secretly.
After it was over, everyone was silent and refused to talk about it, as if nothing had happened.
Both parties in the war, including the onlookers, tacitly chose to keep silent, and no one wanted to mention this past.
The only one that has an impact.
Perhaps it was because Taoist Ling Xiao's status in the court soared because he made a big promise and even issued a military order, saying that he could replicate the mechanical wolf that appeared in the Rongzhou battle within two years. If he failed to do so, he would be beheaded.
Everyone is about to raise their heads.
Then we can only respect others.
Everyone knows that no one can shake Taoist Ling Xiao's position for any reason.
Because they all know...
Times have changed!
Everyone knows what a bunch of emotionless street fighting machines will mean to future wars.
Previous wars have always been dominated by siege warfare. As long as the city gate is broken, the battle can basically be declared over. Street fighting is like mincing meat. The price to pay is too high, so it is better to surrender.
But now.
changed!
Everything has changed!
Taoist Ling Xiao is the deity who controls all of this, and is worthy of Li Zhixuan's coaxing him to come.
Fortunately, Taoist Ling Xiao is not a treacherous person.
Just bad mouth.
When attending court meetings, he would directly criticize anyone he disliked. Although this made the court a bit chaotic, there were no serious consequences.
Because Taoist Lingxiao never forms cliques for personal gain, nor does he abuse his power for personal gain.
Just pure trolling.
As for who to criticize, it all depends on personal mood.
Sometimes I criticize the marshal for his old-fashioned behavior.
Sometimes it sprays in the jester who offers slander.
There is no political stance, it is all emotional output.
can only say……
The emperor doted on him too much and always coaxed him into doing things no matter what the situation was.
This made many people furious, and they silently prayed that the mechanical wolf would not be reproduced within two years, so that they could kill this stinky Taoist priest.
It is said that even Qin Kaijiang cursed him many times behind his back.
The carriage stopped at Zhennan Prefecture.
"Master, we're here!"
The groom whispered.
"Ok!"
Qin Kaijiang responded and jumped off the carriage.
He had been having a rough time these past few months.
Although apart from the rebellious son Qin Muye who used the alias of Taoist Ling Xiao and often scolded him in the court, nothing extraordinary happened.
Even Li Zhixuan returned to his previous state as a wise king and no longer made things difficult for him in any way.
It was as if the conflict between the emperor, his ministers, the father-in-law and the son-in-law in Yongqing Palace last time had never happened at all.
But he still felt that something seemed to be getting worse.
But he couldn't tell what was getting worse.
He can do anything in Annan.
However, he did not develop many informants in Kyoto.
Apart from hearing that a trend of "flower boat politics" has emerged among young officials, I have not heard of anything else.
The flower boat politics means that no matter whether young officials or young corrupt officials want to have a good development in the court, they must go to the flower boats on the inland rivers to pay their respects.
This is not a good phenomenon.
Sometimes I have to go find Shen Kui and ask him to discipline his younger son.
As for now...
Let’s go home first!
There is at least one younger sister at home who is crazy about getting pregnant, and a brother-in-law who is unemployed and at home because he is being asked to pay excessively.
Listening to them quarreling every day is one of the few pleasures I have.
Stride into Zhennan Prefecture.
Qin Kaijiang frowned immediately.
wrong!
The atmosphere is not right.
It is now breakfast time. At this time in the past, Qin Yanying would definitely be complaining that Chen Sui was not strong enough last night and would ask him to take more tonic medicine before dinner.
but now……
There was no quarrel.
Instead, some people were crying.
I walked quickly to the main hall and found Chen Sui sitting there awkwardly.
Qin Yanying hugged the crying Qin Mingxin and kept comforting her.
"Brother? You're back!"
"father!"
When Qin Mingxin saw Qin Kaijiang, she quickly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.
Qin Kaijiang's face froze for a moment, then he sat down on the main seat with a stern face: "Why did you run out of the palace?"
"What's your tone?"
Qin Yanying was still so irritable: "Mingxin was wronged in the palace, and she can't go back to her parents' home?"
Qin Kaijiang couldn't help but frowned.
Qin Mingxin is now the queen and has given birth to a little prince. What kind of injustice could she suffer in the palace?
He couldn't help but ask, "What happened?"
Qin Ming was a little panicked: "Aunt, don't say..."
"What can't be said?"
Qin Yanying cursed and blurted out everything: "Your Majesty is like someone who grew up on aphrodisiacs. Mingxin has only just come out of confinement, but he forced her to have sex with him last night. I don't know which erotic picture book he learned this from, but he used all of it on Mingxin. Who the hell can resist this?
This is the legal wife, this is the queen!
How come their treatment is even worse than that of prostitutes in brothels?
As a father-in-law, you must find an opportunity to teach your son-in-law a lesson!"
Qin Ming was a little panicked: "Aunt, stop talking..."
Qin Kaijiang: “???”
His cheek twitched slightly.
Although people who practice cultivation recover quickly.
But everyone knows that having a baby takes a toll on your health, and right after the confinement period...
People in the palace said that the emperor and empress had a deep affection for each other, and they doted on each other after their marriage. The emperor didn't even take many concubines. During the empress's pregnancy, he even entered a state of abstinence. Even the eunuchs who were in charge of the emperor's sexual life were as anxious as ants on a hot pan.
But this is not the way to love someone exclusively!
A hint of anger leaked out.
Everyone present was terrified.
Qin Mingxin said quickly, "Dad! Brother Xuan was really thinking about me, but he waited too long, so he lost his temper. I'll go back and talk to him, don't take it too seriously."
"Why don't you go back and tell me about it?"
"Um……"
"Then why didn't you tell me last night?"
"..."
Qin Mingxin recalled Li Zhixuan's beast-like appearance last night and fell into silence.
Actually she did.
But Li Zhixuan's response was only, "Why are you so ignorant of romance? If it weren't for the clan affairs office's request, I wouldn't have taken any concubines, and I would only favor you. Aren't you satisfied?"
Come to think of it, Li Zhixuan really seems to dote on her.
If her body wasn't in so much pain, she would just consider this as fun.
And try to cooperate.
After all, from the very beginning, she wanted to be a queen who rules the country and become the woman with the highest status in the world. This was what she had wanted to do since she was a child, so naturally she was willing to pay a lot for it.
It’s just… I just feel really uncomfortable.
"I'll go find him!"
Qin Kaijiang stood up and prepared to go out.
In the past, he felt that he could endure a lot of grievances for Daqian.
I still think so now.
But when a loved one is wronged, this temper cannot be suppressed.
Especially at this critical juncture, any change in attitude towards the Qin family is a dangerous signal.
He suddenly realized that the reason why he was able to maintain his state of mind under the influence of the bloodline of the God's Messenger was that his own cultivation only played a small part.
Most of the credit should be attributed to Li Hong.
Hiro!
Brother!
miss you!
Your son is too rebellious. If you don't help him get back on the right track, the Qian Kingdom will be destroyed in his hands sooner or later.
I don't want to be a powerful official.
I really don’t want to!
But he really wanted to mess up!
Such a huge court is full of people singing praises, and it seems that no one dares to tell the truth except me.
"father!"
Qin Mingxin stepped forward to stop him.
Qin Kaijiang frowned: "What? You're still trying to stop me? Haven't you suffered enough?"
Qin Mingxin quickly shook his head: "Dad! I didn't come back today for this matter. Yesterday I heard Brother Xuan talk about another very important thing?"
"Is there anything else important?"
Qin Kaijiang felt a bad feeling in his heart.
Qin Mingxin nodded quickly: "He said that he only has me in his heart, and there are not many concubines in the harem, so I don't need to worry about it and just focus on taking care of the children."
"and then?"
"Then let the children play with their uncles and aunts more..."
"Uncle and aunt?"
Qin Kaijiang felt a chill on his back and wanted to ask something, but he heard the sound of a carriage outside the door.
He walked out of Zhennan Mansion quickly.
It was discovered that Qin Mingyu and Qin Mingri, brother and sister, were helping You Tianjiao, whose belly was slightly bulging, get out of the car.
Not only that.
His other adult children and even Qin Mingri’s newlywed wife also came along.
Qin Mingri's eyes lit up: "Dad! You..."
Qin Kaijiang's temples throbbed with anger, and he interrupted directly, "Why did you come to Kyoto?"
The momentum was so fierce that Qin Mingri shrank his neck in fear.
You Tianjiao stroked her belly and gently complained, "My husband, please don't be so fierce. The main thing is that you are going to have a son and a grandson soon. His Majesty said that Kyoto is more suitable for pregnancy, so let us give you a surprise."
surprise?
Are you sure you're not scared?
If you just want to take care of the pregnancy, then only you and the couple tomorrow should come.
As for the whole family moving to Kyoto?
Qin Kaijiang rubbed his temples and said, "Ming Ri and Ming Yu are both in important positions in the army. What should we do with their vacancies?"
"The position has been taken over by a general secretly sent by His Majesty."
You Tianjiao was not stupid, she could guess what this meant. She stepped forward and gently grasped Qin Kaijiang's hand: "Husband! A tall tree attracts the wind! Since you have decided to hand over power, you might as well do it thoroughly.
My idea is to withdraw all the people in our Qin family from the front line, and you can also find a reason to resign as the marshal. If your majesty needs us to fight, we will go to the battlefield, and if your majesty doesn't need us, we will enjoy a peaceful life in Kyoto.
We have no power at all, so your Majesty can only treat us well."
Qin Kaijiang frowned: "Can any general take over the training intensity of the Annan Army? If this goes on for a long time, the military will definitely be weakened. Our Daqian is far from being the Celestial Empire. The old demon emperor is not dead, and Pu Minglong is still alive.
You think that if His Majesty wants to use us, we can be ready to go into battle at any time.
Have you ever thought about what Daqian would do if His Majesty didn't trust us and abandoned the Qin family's generals?"
"This……"
You Tianjiao was in hesitation. From Qin Kaijiang's attitude, she vaguely felt that her son-in-law Li Zhixuan seemed more difficult than she had expected.
She gritted her teeth and said, "But we can't always hold on to power, right?"
Qin Kaijiang said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty has been obsessed with the words 'a time of great peace'. Someone must step forward to wake him up!"
You Tianjiao panicked: "Husband! Anyone can be this person, but not you. We..."
"call out!"
Qin Kaijiang's figure disappeared on the spot.
You Tianjiao's face suddenly turned pale, and she even became a little unsteady on her feet.
Qin Mingyu was startled and quickly stepped forward to support her: "Mom!"
She held You Tianjiao's hand, only to find that her mother's hand was frighteningly cold and was shaking all the time.
Qin Mingri also felt something was wrong, but he still comforted her: "Mom! I don't think you need to worry so much. We are all in Kyoto, and Mingxin just gave birth to a little prince. His Majesty will not treat us badly."
"Uh-huh!"
You Tianjiao nodded and then looked at Qin Mingxin.
Qin Mingxin also forced a smile: "Yes, mother, brother is right, His Majesty loves the little prince very much, nothing will happen."
You Tianjiao looked at the tear marks on her face and became even more worried.
The atmosphere hasn't eased yet.
Qin Mingri quickly pulled his newlywed wife's hand, looked at Qin Mingyu and said, "Sister! When I got married, my brother said he had prepared a mechanical wolf for me as a wedding gift, but he accidentally sent it to Kyoto by mistake.
I was originally thinking of asking my father to send someone to deliver it to me so that we could study it carefully, and it just so happened that we both came to Kyoto.
Why don’t we go check it out now?”
"Okay!"
Qin Mingyu's eyes lit up. Although they did not participate in the Rongzhou Battle, the scouts sent by the Annan Army did arrive.
That hellish street battle had been discussed within the Annan Army for several months.
She also wanted to see how powerful the mechanical wolf was that had defeated Baiyue in that battle.
of course.
The main thing is to think about the corresponding tactics.
After all, I heard that Taoist Ling Xiao said that the mechanical wolf will be able to be replicated within two years. It is estimated that it will not take long before this thing can be popularized in the army.
By then, the entire tactical system will change because of this thing, and we cannot just stand still.
It just so happened that Qin Mingri’s newlywed wife also came from a military background, and this time she came to Kyoto, she just wanted to enjoy the sight.
My brother.
I still dote on Tomorrow too much.
Several youngsters were very interested and prepared to go into the yard to look for the mechanical wolf.
You Tianjiao suddenly said, "Muye has always done things properly. Can you guess why he was sent to Kyoto by mistake?"
Qin Mingri: “…”
Qin Mingyu: “…”
Qin Mingxin: “…”
Did brother know we were coming?
He knows Li Zhixuan too well!
……
Yongqing Palace.
Qin Kaijiang waited for a long time.
The eunuch on duty came over hurriedly and said, "General Qin! Your Majesty is not in Yongqing Palace today."
Qin Kaijiang's face was slightly stiff: "It has only been a short while since the morning court session ended. Where is His Majesty if he is not in Yongqing Palace?"
The eunuch said cautiously, "Leopard Room!"
"Leopard room?"
Qin Kaijiang couldn't help but frown. He ignored the eunuch, snorted, and strode away.
He is now filled with resentment.
I fully support you in ascending the throne, not that I think the throne must belong to you.
It’s just because they think Li Xingluo is not capable enough and will destroy the hard work of the older generation.
Today's Daqian was created through the hard work of me, Li Rui, Shen Kui and the late emperor.
How many civil officials have devoted all their energy to this.
Countless soldiers died on the battlefield.
This is how we have today’s prosperous situation.
If you can cure me, I can endure any injustice.
But if you do something reckless and aim to bring down the Daqian Dynasty, I really won’t tolerate you!
The body is like electricity.
Cut through the void.
In just a moment, Qin Kaijiang appeared at the door of the Leopard Room.
He had an extremely sharp hearing and could hear the crackling sound of firecrackers and the voices of several people talking without even going in.
Li Zhixuan laughed loudly and said, "This spiritual fire crossbow is indeed more useful than a bow and arrow! My dear ministers, how many enemies do you think I can eliminate in one breath if I go to the battlefield?"
The great ape flattered: "Your Majesty does not need to go to the battlefield at all. Just give an order and the enemy will be killed by millions."
Li Zhixuan did not respond, obviously not satisfied with this answer.
Shen Jin's voice followed: "Second Temple Master! What you said is wrong. Your Majesty can certainly kill countless enemies with a wave of his hand, but wouldn't it be a pity if you don't kill a few enemies with such good archery skills? I think it's no problem for Your Majesty to kill twenty in one breath!"
Hear this.
Li Zhixuan laughed out loud: "Ahahahaha! Shen Jin still understands me. He is worthy of being the son of Prime Minister Shen. This pair of discerning eyes is inherited from the family!"
Great Ape: “…”
Damn!
You're flattering the horse and hitting its hoof!
I have studied flattery for more than a year, but in the end I was still no match for these talented contestants.
Isn’t it said that these emperors like to be praised for their ability to make plans and decisions and to make things happen with a wave of their hands?
Damn!
Why does Li Zhixuan like others to praise his accurate shooting?
Qin Kaijiang couldn't listen any longer: "Your Majesty! I, Qin Kaijiang, request an audience!"
"ah!"
Li Zhixuan seemed very surprised: "It's my father-in-law, come in quickly!"
Qin Kaijiang took a deep breath and strode into the Leopard Room.
Just walked in the door.
What came into view was the corpses of ferocious beasts on the ground, with wounds on their bodies that were extremely hideous and bloody.
In Li Zhixuan's hand, he was holding a black metal tube engraved with array patterns.
Surrounding him were a bunch of new court nobles.
Including but not limited to the priest of the Great Sage Temple, the sons of wealthy and aristocratic families, and the young upstarts from the flower boat politics.
Qin Kaijiang's temples were throbbing, but he suppressed his anger and stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty just came back from the morning court, and it's a busy time for government affairs. Why aren't you reviewing memorials in Yongqing Palace?"
Li Zhixuan smiled and waved his hands: "There are countless capable ministers in Daqian, why should I do everything myself? My father-in-law still underestimates the civil and military officials!"
"Yes!"
Shen Jin smiled and took over the conversation: "General Qin! Your Majesty is busy with many things every day, so you need your subjects to share some of the trivial government affairs. There are more important things waiting for Your Majesty to do!"
Qin Kaijiang glanced at the metal tube in Li Zhixuan's hand and said, "The important thing you are talking about is the test firing of the spiritual energy fire crossbow?"
Shen Jin straightened his chest and said, "Of course! Such a national treasure must be personally checked by your majesty!"
"Snapped!"
A slap fell.
Shen Jin's mouth was full of blood after being beaten, and he immediately showed a look of fear and anger: "Qin Kaijiang! How dare you..."
He was forced to swallow back the words he had just said.
Because Qin Kaijiang's gaze was so ferocious, just one look at him made him feel like he was being tortured to death countless times.
Qin Kaijiang snorted coldly: "Where do you get the courage to address me by my name? You are a playboy who spent some dirty money to build a leopard house, and you spend all day in the name of the country to lure the emperor to waste his time.
If it weren't for your father's sake, a treacherous villain like you would have been crushed to ashes by me long ago!
How dare you still speak in a flattering manner?
Never again!
Get out! "
"Qin..."
Shen Jin was furious, but when he looked at Qin Kaijiang, his legs suddenly went limp.
He glanced at Li Zhixuan with a look of grievance, but saw that the latter did not respond at all.
I could only grit my loose teeth and say, "Get lost if you want!"
Say it.
He crawled out of the Leopard House with the new elites on the flower boat.
Li Zhixuan then smiled and said, "Father-in-law, there is no need to be so angry. This fire crossbow is indeed a national treasure. If I don't personally check it, I will not be at ease!"
Qin Kaijiang's eyes were slightly solemn: "Your Majesty! If I remember correctly, this fire crossbow has been on the market for more than half a month, and Your Majesty has also been in the Leopard Room for half a month. After such a long time, haven't you finished the test yet?"
"This……"
"I still remember that Your Majesty provided Taoist Ling Xiao with dozens of veteran soldiers who had experienced hundreds of battles to test the crossbow. Your Majesty felt that your crossbow skills were superior to those of these veterans?"
"you……"
Li Zhixuan hated it when people said that he was not good at crossbow skills, but the person who said this happened to be Qin Kaijiang, and he didn't know how to refute it.
Qin Kaijiang had no intention of giving in: "Although the fire crossbow is now in its infancy, it is far inferior to the weapons of Lingnan. Each crossbow bullet consumes pure spirit stone powder, and it is still a long way from mass production.
I believe that Your Majesty should not waste time in the name of guarding the country's affairs.
Now that the external enemies of Daqian are dormant, it is a good time to work hard to govern the country, rectify the officialdom, and manage the people's livelihood.
But Your Majesty has stayed in the Leopard House for so long..."
"foreign aggression?"
Li Zhixuan laughed loudly: "Who is the external threat? Pu Minglong? Some defeated generals who can't even beat a dog, are they worthy of being called external threats? When Taoist Ling Xiao replicates the mechanical wolf, even if Pu Minglong has ten thousand guts, will he dare to look at our Daqian city?"
Qin Kaijiang was very angry: "What about the old demon king?"
Li Zhixuan sneered: "The old demon king died a long time ago!"
"died?"
The corners of Qin Kaijiang's eyes began to twitch.
The big ape at the side smiled and said, "Yes, Commander Qin! The old Demon King is already old and weak. After a battle with you, he lost his beloved son. He just died in the Demon King Palace some time ago."
"fart!"
Qin Kaijiang was furious: "Do you think I don't know? Old Qiwu has already swallowed up the young Qiwu, his life span has been restored, and his cultivation has also reached a higher level..."
The big ape interrupted with a smile: "Who did Qin Shuai hear this news from?"
Qin Kaijiang snorted coldly: "These are all told to the late emperor by Qin Muye and Ao Jin!"
Dayuan asked back: "They are just two traitors. What they said is nothing more than a way to waste Daqian's energy. But Commander Qin actually believed it?"
Li Zhixuan's eyes also turned colder: "After the battle in Rongzhou, could it be that father-in-law still has illusions about those villains?"
Qin Kaijiang: “???”
Li Zhixuan sneered: "Father-in-law, in recent years, those evil officials with ulterior motives have all bowed their heads and stayed in their official positions obediently, not daring to overstep the line. Isn't this enough to prove that the Demon King is dead?
You would rather believe that Qiwu would give up his dignity as the Demon King and fake his death.
Are you unwilling to believe that my wisdom has already won the hearts of all races?"
The big ape echoed, "Yes, General Qin! Your Majesty is benevolent, who in this world does not know? Not to mention that the old demon king is dead, even if the old demon king is still alive...ah!"
He screamed.
Flying backwards directly.
His chest collapsed and he vomited blood.
Li Zhixuan was shocked and angry: "Qin Kaijiang! You..."
Qin Kaijiang snorted coldly: "Your Majesty! You would rather believe the slander of the evil officials than the judgment made by the late emperor, right? You said that the old demon emperor is dead, so let me ask you, where is the old demon emperor's body?
Which great demon refined the old demon king’s demon pill and essence blood?
Has your majesty sent people to look for these great monsters? Do they have the aura of Old Qiwu?
Also! Where is the Demon King Palace? Has Your Majesty sent anyone to check it out?"
Li Zhixuan was speechless for a while after being asked.
"Return your majesty's wisdom!?"
Qin Kaijiang became more and more angry as he spoke, and in the end he simply laughed out of anger: "Your Majesty, please tell me clearly, since you ascended the throne, other than some false prosperity, what remarkable achievements have you made that you dare to call yourself a wise ruler?"
Li Zhixuan's face was distorted with anger.
Since he ascended the throne, everyone has said that he is a wise king who is loved by all the people.
How come it becomes worthless in Qin Kaijiang's mouth?
All the evil officials have surrendered, doesn’t that count?
I have accomplished what even the previous emperor could not do!
But as soon as I said it, you retorted that it was the evil officials who were fooling me!
What can I do if you insist on being so stubborn?
You are invincible!
At this time.
Zhu Jinni of the Three Temples could not help but jump out: "Qin Kaijiang! Don't..."
Qin Kaijiang's eyes were full of ferocity: "If you don't want to die, get out!"
Jin Ni: “…”
Although he has already reached the threshold of the Demon King, he still feels fear deep in his bones in front of Qin Kaijiang.
You know, the other big ape who reached the threshold of the Demon King is now kneeling on the ground and spitting blood!
The demon officials looked at each other, then quickly helped the big ape up and left quickly.
"Hey you guys..."
Li Zhixuan was a little anxious. Facing Qin Kaijiang alone, he was really panicked.
Qin Kaijiang pressed on: "Your Majesty! All the sycophants have left. Can you listen to me now?"
Li Zhixuan subconsciously took a step back, his calves already beginning to tremble.
He wanted to mobilize Taizu's Dharma body, but found that Taizu's Dharma body was quite slow to react.
It should be that Qin Kaijiang only has violence but no murderous intent, so Taizu's Dharma body himself doesn't want to move!
But Qin Kaijiang is such a vicious guy, how could he not have murderous intent?
There must be something wrong with Taizu’s Dharma body!
He quickly forced a smile and said, "Look at what you said. I am not someone who cannot listen to honest advice. We can just have a good chat. Why does my father-in-law have to be so serious?"
"Have a good chat!?"
Qin Kaijiang laughed in anger: "If I chat nicely, Your Majesty might listen to even one word I say?"
With every word he spoke he took a step forward.
For every step forward, Li Zhixuan took a step back.
then.
Li Zhixuan tripped over the stairs and sat down directly.
Looking up at Qin Kaijiang's burly figure, the fear and anger in his heart had been aroused to the extreme.
But it just couldn't break out.
Just when he didn't know what Qin Kaijiang would do.
Qin Kaijiang helped him up, and said in a serious tone: "Your Majesty! You can no longer be proud and complacent. Listen to me, kill all those treacherous ministers, recuperate for a few years, and eliminate the foreign enemies as soon as possible! Otherwise, Daqian will be destroyed in your hands!"
Li Zhixuan's face turned blue and purple.
Since the death of the late emperor.
It had been a long time since he had experienced being trained like a dog.
The result is now...
came back!
They're all back!
Although I was afraid in my heart.
But anger soon took over.
He knocked away Qin Kaijiang's hand that was clasping his forearm, took a half step back and put his hands behind his back: "What? Commander Qin can't wait to act like an elder and lecture me?
I have worked diligently since I ascended the throne, and that is why we have created this prosperous era. When I subdued the evil officials, General Qin stood by and watched. When I wanted to retake Rongzhou, General Qin fooled around. Now that Daqian is safe, General Qin has become a senior again? "
Qin Kaijiang: “???”
No?
You bastard!
Why do I feel so good about myself?
Having said that, do you still think you have subdued the evil official?
Mad!
I’m so mad!
Just when Qin Kaijiang was about to explode with anger.
Suddenly, I heard a burst of laughter from behind the screen.
Qin Kaijiang's face turned stern: "Who?"
"I!"
Taoist Ling Xiao came out holding a brand new spiritual fire crossbow.
Qin Kaijiang's eyes twitched wildly: "Why are you here?"
Taoist Ling Xiao shook the thing in his hand and said, "Of course I improved the fire crossbow for your majesty. Your majesty is the best marksman in the world. How can we do it without him to check it?
Unexpectedly, I heard Qin Shuai's ridiculous remarks.
If I remember correctly, General Qin was the one who most supported Your Majesty's ascension to the throne, right?
How come in this prosperous era, why does General Qin devalue Your Majesty to the point of being worthless?
how?
Qin Shuai... regrets it?"
Li Zhixuan: "!!!"
Qin Kaijiang: “???”
There were already signs of fire.
Why did this person just pour a bucket of oil?
