However, it was said that Xia Wu and Feng Shiyun hurriedly came to the palace and asked to see Emperor Xia Mingjun.

The two waited for a while, and a guard came to give an order: His Majesty ordered the two to go to the audience.

The two followed the herald to the Qinzheng Hall where His Majesty the Emperor worked, and saw the Emperor sitting at the table, and the two hurriedly stepped forward to pay respects.

Emperor Xia Mingjun waved his hand to let the two of them be exempted.

Xia Wu stepped forward and reported what happened on the way when Zhao Tiejun greeted Li Yuan.

Xia Mingjun was also shocked when he heard this.

Chen Tianying is a nephew of Chen Liguo, the emperor of the Great Chen Kingdom, this Chen Tianying has been extremely talented since he was a child, he broke through to the Martial King at a young age, and he cultivates body martial arts, which is extremely fast, so he is a huge threat to the Great Xia Kingdom.

Chen Tianying has a noble status in the Great Chen Kingdom, and Emperor Chen Liguo also loves this nephew Chen Tianying very much.

Now that he heard Xia Wu and Feng Shiyun say that Zhao Tiejun, the general of the Imperial Forest Army, had killed Chen Tianying, how could he not be shocked?

Xia Mingjun thought for a while, and then ordered the guard officer next to him: Notify the prime minister, the generalissimo, the six yamen, and the princes in Beijing to come to the Qinzheng Palace to discuss matters.

The guard officer gave the order.

After waiting for a while, the prime minister, the generalissimo, and the princes and others came one after another.

Xia Mingjun first explained to everyone the reason for inviting everyone to come, and then asked Xia Wu to introduce in detail the matter of Zhao Tiejun and others killing Chen Tianying, the martial king of the Great Chen Kingdom.

Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and even doubted the truth of this matter: a person of the ninth level of a martial artist, leading two hundred martial artists and martial apprentices, actually killed the martial king Chen Tianying, how impossible it is!

Xia Mingjun said: "I invite you to come here today to discuss, how should we deal with this matter?

The wolf ambitions of the Great Chen Kingdom have long been unpredictable to our Great Xia Kingdom, and now that the matter of Chen Tianying has happened again, they will definitely not give up. ”

Prime Minister Jiang Shouxian said: "We should fight on the basis of reason! This time, we completely took advantage of the reason, and Chen Tianying led people to infiltrate our country and kill our young genius, and it was only right to kill him. He was also to blame for being killed, even if this matter is reported to the family sect, we are completely responsible, and we are not afraid of them. ”

Generalissimo Xia Mingli said: "The sect family will not care about such a thing as us. Now that the enemy is strong and we are weak, we must be ready for battle and prepare to resist the attack of the Great Chen State. ”

All the princes also discussed and expressed their opinions.

In the end, Xia Mingjun said: "Because the sect has an agreement not to interfere in the affairs of mortal countries, we should not hope for the intervention of the sect. Now the enemy is strong and I am weak. Da Chen Guo also has the secret support of the monarch-level sect Tianduanmen. Therefore, our situation is not optimistic, and we must be prepared for all-round defense and prepare to resist the attack of Da Chen. Send people to Tianwumen, ask Tianwumen for help, and ask them to send people to help deter Da Chen Guo.

Those who went to Nanyue County this time were to be rewarded according to the first-class military merits, and those soldiers who died in the battle were to be rewarded twice, and their families were to be properly settled, and each deceased soldier's family was given an additional place in the Royal Academy.

Ordered the people who went to Nanyue County this time, and told them to keep secrets, and not to spread the information about how Li Yuan killed Chen Tianying and the methods used.

Invite this young genius Li Yuan over, let's take a look, and then decide how to arrange this Li Yuan. ”

The guard officer went to pass the edict to Li Yuan to come to the palace of diligence to face the king.

Li Yuan followed the guard officer to the palace.

Li Yuan walked and looked and found that the palace was actually a city within a city. In the middle of the tall city wall is a splendid tower. Underneath the tower is a wide gate. Walking into the city gate, there is a wide avenue, on both sides of the avenue, on the left is the temporary resting place of the civil officials, and on the right is the temporary resting place of the military generals. At the end of the avenue is a large hall. This hall is the place where civil and military officials usually meet the emperor and participate in political affairs.

On both sides of the road and at the entrance of the main hall, rows of soldiers stood.

The guard officer led Li Yuan, bypassed the main hall from the right side of the main hall, and walked back. After walking not far, there is another big hall, this big hall is the Qinzheng Palace, where the emperor usually works.

Li Yuan walked into the main hall with the guard officer, and when he looked up, he saw that in front of the main hall, there was a table, behind which sat a person in a yellow robe, and there were more than a dozen people standing on both sides of the table.

The guard officer shouted loudly: "Tell Your Majesty, Li Yuan and Li Gongzi are here!"

Li Yuan hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "Li Yuan greets Your Majesty." ”

The emperor and the rest of the group all raised their eyes to look at Li Yuan, and found that Li Yuan was only an eleven or twelve-year-old boy, clear and thin, and his cultivation seemed to be only a second-level martial artist.

Everyone was very puzzled: just such a second-level child of martial apprentices, who could actually refine pills, arrange formations, arrange joint attack formations, and kill the martial king Chen Tianying?

It doesn't seem possible.

Xia Mingjun said: "Li Gongzi, this time you got rid of the Martial King Chen Tianying and made great contributions to the Great Xia Kingdom, the Great Xia Kingdom has always had clear rewards and punishments, so the Great Xia Kingdom will also reward you." What do you want?"

Li Yuan hurriedly saluted: "Li Yuan personally sent someone to Nanyue County to greet and escort him to the imperial city, Li Yuan is already grateful, and this time he killed the martial king Chen Tianying to protect himself." Therefore, Li Yuan did not dare to make any requests to His Majesty. ”

Xia Mingjun and everyone took a look: Li Yuan, this kid is very bright and modest.

Xia Mingjun said: "You have made great contributions this time, and the reward will still be rewarded." But now seeing that you are still young, it is not suitable for you to be awarded any official position, and when you grow up, you will be crowned an official and knighted, Now you should enter the Royal Academy to study, and improve your cultivation and alchemy array as soon as possible. I'll give you more resources for cultivation, and you can work hard to cultivate. You have to grow up as soon as possible, the country needs a genius like you. I'll tell the Guards that if you have any requests, or something you want to see me, you can come and see me directly. Li Yuan thanked Emperor Xia Mingjun again.

Xia Mingjun explained the matter of giving Li Yuan a reward and arranging for Li Yuan to enter the Royal Academy, and explained it to Xia Wu, the commander of the Imperial Forest Army.

Xia Wu received the order and took Li Yuan out.

Xia Wu told Li Yuan that the rewards issued needed to be prepared, and it was already late to go to the Royal Academy today, so let Li Yuan temporarily live in Zhao Tiejun of the Imperial Forest Army, and then take Li Yuan to the Royal Academy tomorrow and issue the reward given to Li Yuan by His Majesty the Emperor.

Li Yuan thanked Xia Wu.

The two came to the residence arranged by Zhao Tiejun for Li Yuan, sat down, and Xia Wu explained to Li Yuan the relationship between the Great Xia Kingdom and the Great Chen Kingdom.

For many years, the two countries have been rivals and at war. But the strength of the two countries has always been that the Great Chen State is strong and the Xia State is weak. Although the emperors of both countries were at the level of the Martial Emperor, the Emperor of the Great Xia Kingdom was piled up by pills, and his strength was weaker than that of the Emperor of the Great Chen Kingdom.

The martial kings of the two countries, the Great Chen Kingdom are also more and stronger than the Great Xia Kingdom. There were four ninth-level martial kings in the Great Xia Kingdom, two of whom were the Great Prince and the Second Prince, one was the Generalissimo Xia Mingli, and the other was the Cao family patriarch. In addition, there are more than thirty martial kings in the Great Xia Kingdom. Among these martial kings, except for some of them are the marshals of the border passes, or the city lords of the counties, and some officials of the yamen, the rest are either the patriarchs and elders of the major families, or the leaders of the major forces. In addition to the life-and-death crisis of the country, some of these people are not willing to contribute to the country, and the country cannot easily mobilize them.

There are eight major families in the imperial city, and each family has a martial king in charge. However, among the eight major families, the Cao family, the Huang family, and the Sun family have always had two hearts with the palace, and the other five families either have no deep background or have a close relationship with the royal family, but they can be transferred.

Those in charge of the major forces will not easily get involved in the battle with the Great Chen Kingdom. Each border marshal has its own defensive points, which cannot be easily mobilized, so once the Great Chen State sends troops to attack, the royal family will not even be able to mobilize many people to resist.

Although the emperor of the Great Chen State is also a first-level martial emperor, his strength is stronger than that of the emperor of the Great Xia Kingdom. The Great Chen Kingdom also had four Martial King Rank 9 warriors, but the Great Chen Kingdom Martial King had more than ten more than the Great Xia Kingdom, and the Great Chen Kingdom had more than fifty Martial Kings.

More importantly, the Great Chen Kingdom has a close relationship with the Heavenly Broken Sect of the Monarch-level Sect, and the Heavenly Broken Sect openly and secretly helps the Great Chen Kingdom.

Although the Great Xia Kingdom also often paid tribute to the monarch-level sect Tianwumen to ask for help, the Great Xia Kingdom and the Tianwu Sect did not have a special relationship, so the Tianwu Sect only expressed its support for the Great Xia Kingdom on the surface, but in fact, the Great Xia Kingdom did not dare to rely on the Tianwu Sect.

Originally, the Great Chen Kingdom was eyeing the Great Xia Kingdom, ready to attack the Great Xia Kingdom at any time and destroy the Great Xia Kingdom, but now that the Great Xia Kingdom has killed the Martial King Chen Tianying, the Great Chen Kingdom will definitely not give up.

Therefore, Xia Wu encouraged Li Yuan to cultivate hard and grow up as soon as possible, once the Great Chen State sent troops to attack, if Li Yuan had the ability, he could help the royal family and defend the country.

After talking for a while, it was dark, Xia Wu said goodbye and left, and Li Yuan entered the Universe Bead again.
