Sun Cheng, the first prime minister of the Chinese Empire, was originally an energetic and resolute person, but during this time he seemed a little absent-minded. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

At first, no one dared to speculate about why he was like this, but then there was gossip that the reason why he was like this was because his second term was approaching, and he was rejected by Zhou Quan in his attempt to be re-elected.

When such news came out, people with a heart couldn't help but wonder: The tenure system proposed by His Majesty Zhou Quan turned out to be true, and who would succeed Sun Cheng.

At this time, no one thought that there was a problem in the relationship between Zhou Quan and Sun Cheng, but immediately afterwards, the advisory platform began to impeach a group of officials, and the common feature of these officials was that they were close to Sun Cheng and could be regarded as Sun Cheng's sworn friend. By this time, everyone understood that Sun Cheng was only afraid that he had disappointed Zhou Quan.

Sun Cheng himself was also very shocked, especially when his student and one of his most favored successors, Shang Junxiong, the governor of Lion Prefecture, was directly taken away by the people sent by the Advisory Desk, and then a shocking case was exposed, Shang Junxiong embezzled Huaxia assets with illegal businessmen, and only took away the original gem mine worth more than one million yuan at a price of only 10,000 yuan, and at the same time wantonly issued usury, so that the underworld forces collected debts for him...... The most serious is the resale of military funds, and the sale of some military materials to hostile countries such as Jinguo at high prices.

There is a crime in this case that only a few people have seen: trying to seduce Zhou Yu, the eldest son of the emperor, with a woman. As for whether the lure was successful, even these few people don't know the result.

This case is widely implicated, and there are more than 300 people involved in the case between the military and the government, which can be regarded as another major case after the Song Xingfeng rebellion case, especially when Song Xingfeng plotted rebellion, Zhou Quan has not yet been called the emperor, and this is the most important case exposed after Zhou Quan became the emperor.

Sun Cheng resigned, but Zhou Quan refused, not only that, but Zhou Quan also proposed that the Chinese Academy find a suitable title for Sun Cheng - Sun Cheng would become the first recipient of the title of duke in the Chinese Empire.

But everyone who understands knows that Sun Cheng is only maintaining the operation of the government now, and his dream of being re-elected must be shattered.

This incident must have caused turmoil in the court situation, but fortunately, Sun Cheng himself struggled to maintain it, coupled with Zhou Quan's prestige and deterrence, especially the warning of Shang Junxiong's case, so that those who were dissatisfied in their hearts were honest.

What was affected was the decisive battle with the Jin State, because the Lion State was the rear of the decisive battle, including Shang Junxiong, a total of more than 200 officials and even military officials were arrested, and the preparation for the war was affected, and the decisive battle could only be postponed.

When this problem arose within Huaxia, there was also a problem within Jinguo.

In the autumn and August of the eleventh year of the Yuan Xian of China, in the city of Shiraz in Persia under the rule of the Jin State, several Persians with their heads gathered together and sighed.

"Have you seen the Sultan?" One of the oldest hawk-nosed old men asked.

"No, except for those aliens, we haven't seen the Sultan, and even the imams who came from the Great Eclipse haven't seen the Sultan for many days."

"I sensed something was wrong...... The last time I felt something was wrong, it was when something happened to the Great Sultan. The eagle-nosed old man muttered.

The Great Sultan in his mouth is the Sultan of the Seljuk Empire, not the current Emperor of the Jin Kingdom - although Wushu and Wanyan Liang both call themselves the Great Jin Emperor, in the eyes of these Great Food Cultists, they are just usurping the Sultan. Although they were afraid of the strength of the Jin soldiers, they had to surrender, but in private, they were still half-hearted.

"Has the Sultan prayed lately?" Another deep-eyed old man asked.

They can't even get close to Wan Yan Liang's body, let alone know Wan Yan Liang's activities, in the past, they also arranged some people around Wushu, but after Wan Yan Liang came to power, they killed all the people around Wushu, and the people they arranged were no exception.

"That tyrant has obviously turned his back on the Cult of God, and the true God will definitely condemn him." The original eagle-nosed old man muttered, a dangerous glint in his eyes.

"Assasin?" The deep-eyed old man asked.

The assassins of the old man in the mountains are not as good as before, after all, in front of muskets and artillery, it is not so easy to assassinate with daggers and short swords.

"Okay......" The eagle-nosed old man was about to say more, when suddenly there was a loud noise outside, and then their door was kicked open, and a group of dark-skinned soldiers entered.

The old men present all looked at this group of soldiers vigilantly, they were neither big cannibals nor Persians, but Tianzhu people.

These Tianzhu people belong to the Shudra in Tianzhu, but they are a lowly caste, only higher than the untouchables, and even in the hands of the Wushu, they mostly take on some lowly work. However, after Yan Liang seized the throne, he hired a large number of these people to join the army and gave them relatively generous treatment. And they don't believe in the Great Food God Cult, which has always been criticized by the Great Cannibals and Persians.

"Who's Sadie?" A Tianzhu man asked.

"I am, I'm the Prime Minister of the Empire......"

Bang!

Before the eagle-nosed old man named Sadie could say anything, a fist slammed into his nose, causing him to bleed from his nose.

Although in order to attract people's hearts, Wushu indiscriminately appointed officials and made more than a dozen prime ministers, but Sa'di ranked high among the dozen prime ministers because of his influence among the Persians, and he was quite powerful. In the past, how could these soldiers dare to be rude to him, but now, it is like this!

He was furious, and was about to say something more, when the Tianzhu soldier sneered: "Take them all away, and don't leave any of them!" ”

Then the sword pressed against his neck, and Sadie wanted to call the number, but when he went out, he found that the entire street was full of soldiers.

These soldiers included Tianzhu people, Khorezmian people, Han Chinese, Dangxiang people, and even some Persians, but these Persians were all followers of Zoroastrianism or other religions, not believers in the Great Eater Religion.

They filled the streets, which made Sadie realize that something was extremely bad.

They knocked on the door and broke the wall, drove the owner of the house out, and gathered into the street.

At first, the people only thought that this was a search for spies, because of the financial resources of China, there were many Persians and cannibals secretly working for China. But soon, they were all kicked out of their homes and gathered at the nearby Great Food Temple.

Sadie was also taken to a temple, where he knew exactly how much it would be a coup, but he didn't think about how tragic it would be.

When he reached the door, he smelled blood and cries. He stopped, turned back and glared at the soldiers who drove him: "I want to see the Sultan, I am the prime minister of the empire, you can't do this to me!" ”

The Tianzhu soldier grinned at him: "Yes, we know that you are the Prime Minister of the Empire, but the person who gave us the order is the Emperor of the Empire, and in this world, no one can go against the will of the Emperor!" ”

There was a certain fanaticism in his eyes, as if Wan Yan Liang was the god he worshipped.

Seeing this scene, Sadie's heart was completely cold. He suddenly remembered that Wan Yanliang was able to launch a coup d'état and kill several of Wushu's older sons, relying on these soldiers of all races who were usually looked down upon by them.

For a long time, Wan Yanliang imitated Zhou Quan and opened a private school to educate the young people of all ethnic groups he collected. Almost all of his money and looted money were used in this matter, which gave Wan Yanliang a henchman army of his own.

"What the hell is the Sultan going to do, we are all his subjects, and we are all loyal to the country......" Sa'di muttered.

The Tianzhu soldier pushed him, and he staggered into the temple.

And then before his eyes, it was all red.

It was blood, the blood that had accumulated in the temple almost up to a person's knees, and a large number of headless corpses were piled up in it.

Before Sadie could see clearly, the Tianzhu soldiers behind him raised their knives and chopped off his head, causing his blood to flow into the lake of blood.

Wan Yan Liang, who had already been in contact with Pope Innocent II, ordered the whole Jin Kingdom to change the Patriarchal Religion, and raised the cross flag and raised the butcher's knife against the Great Food Sect at the same time. If he still wants to maintain his rule in the area of Dashi and Persia, he will naturally have to be a little measured when he starts, but now he is determined to go west, for fear that Dashi and Persia will become the rear of the Huaxia army like Tianzhu and Bagan, so he holds the strategy of killing everything: those who refuse to convert to the Sect of the Cross Lord, no matter how old or young, all men will be killed; Those who were forced to convert must also go west with the army and not stay where they were.

In doing so, the Persians and the Great Eaters, which had a large population, were slaughtered to a sparse population, almost all the towns were slaughtered, and the nomadic tribes were also slaughtered entirely, and the cattle, sheep and horses were robbed. Only a few people who hid in the wilderness of the mountains survived. Even so, they will face cold, famine, and so on, and they will only survive if they do not die in a deserted place.

In just half a year, under the rule of Wan Yan Liang, there were not many living Great God Eater Sect disciples, and he killed him so thoroughly, when Zhou Quan got the news, he couldn't help but be surprised by this person's audacity and unscrupulousness. There are even big cannibals who try their best to come to Huaxia, kneeling down and begging Huaxia to lend a helping hand, hoping to get Huaxia's protection.

For this reason, they did not hesitate to dedicate the honorific title of "Caliph", but they faced Zhou Quan, not a good person who was easily moved by his name.

Zhou Quan comforted them sympathetically, and then transported them to Huzhou, where the mines were too short of labor. Immediately afterwards, Zhou Quan ordered to provide Wan Yanliang with a batch of grain through smuggling channels to make up for his lack of grain production caused by the sharp decline in population.

This matter made Yue Fei and Han Shizhong very puzzled, and the two of them asked Zhou Quan why he was the enemy, but Zhou Quan smiled, but Ye Chu smiled when he invited the two of them to drink: "Someone has done what His Majesty wants to do but can't, Your Majesty naturally wants to encourage it." ”

Ye Chu is the most aware of Zhou Quan's intentions, Zhou Quan did not regard Persia and Dashi as Chinese locals, but he was extremely interested in the large desert on the west coast of the Persian Gulf, these places, even if they were not completely occupied as national territory, they would also establish Chinese colonial cities on them, so the cleaner the local indigenous people were wiped out, the better.
