Tower of Babel.

Since the construction of the Tower of Babel began seven years ago, more than 5 million people have been mobilized so far. Not only were there a large number of craftsmen who built the Tower of Babel, but also laborers who transported materials from all over the world and collected the treasures used in the construction of the Tower.

And this is just the manpower transfer of ordinary people, and the mobilization and participation of martial arts masters is the only thing in ancient and modern times. Among them, there are as many as 100 supernatural cultivators stationed here, and there are more than a dozen Jindan cultivators, and there are even more Great Jin Protectors stationed here all year round.

It can be said that the Tower of Babel is a major project that has not been seen in the Jin Dynasty for thousands of years, and it is also the largest engineering project in ancient times, even far exceeding the scale of the construction of the Mausoleum of the First Emperor in that year. And such a large-scale personnel transfer naturally makes people all over the world complain. Especially in today's disaster, all kinds of visions are terrifying.

The Tower of Babel is located more than 80 miles south of Luoyang City, and it has entered the edge of the eastern line of the Qinling Mountains. Further southwest, there are endless majestic mountains, and to the north is the vast and vast Yellow River.

After seven years of construction, the Tower of Babel is nearing completion.

The bronze tower body of thousands of zhang is like a towering pillar that supports heaven and earth, and it is densely covered with subtle black lines, which looks like some kind of decorative pattern, and it seems to contain the runes of heaven and earth, which makes people can't help but indulge in it. And if you look up at the Tower of Babel for a long time, it even gives people the illusion of looking directly at the origin of heaven and earth, making people can't believe that this is something that humans can build.

Even the cultivators who have built such incredible structures with their own hands are sometimes a little dazed and at a loss when they look up at the majestic and vast heavenly pillars.

Around the Tower of Babel, there is a huge camp that stretches for more than ten miles.

However, because the Tower of Babel is nearing completion, the hundreds of thousands of migrant workers stationed here all year round have long since dispersed, and only tens of thousands of people are left for simple maintenance. In addition to these migrant workers, the elite forbidden army of 100,000 people stationed here all year round are all the most loyal guardians of the royal family.

Although there are a lot of people here, because the construction is nearing completion, most of the migrant workers have dispersed, so it is still peaceful.

Today, however, the tranquility of the place was shattered, and there was a great deal of noisy quarrels and shouts that boiled like a tsunami.

Outside the huge camp, tens of thousands of people surrounded the camp. In front of the people were hundreds of Confucian disciples dressed in Confucian robes. They all looked excited, apparently motivated by the protest.

The person at the head is only twenty, and his face is not very handsome, but his angular face is also quite heroic. His face turned red, he waved his fists, and shouted: "It is ridiculous to be a traitor and mislead the country, and spend tens of millions of people to build the Tower of Babel to win the favor of the saints. ”

"Traitors mislead the country, traitors mislead the country!"

Other Confucian disciples followed suit with an earth-shattering roar, causing tens of thousands of people to roar. Their voices were so loud that they shook the huge camp like a tsunami, and even the workers who were repairing the Tower of Babel could be faintly heard in the distance.

Inside the camp, thousands of soldiers in armor hurried to the camp and set up a heavy array of protection from the camp.

"Mother Xipi, where did these people come from?" A rugged man dressed in a general's uniform looked at the excited people outside the camp, and couldn't help but frown and scold.

"It's not those Confucian disciples yet, now they think they are the saviors, and they can't wait to point fingers at the court. Poof, I heard that they also listed the four major traitors of the dynasty, as well as the ten crimes since His Majesty ascended the throne, and asked His Majesty to clean up the court and issue an edict for his own crimes, which is really ridiculous. A middle-aged man dressed as a scribe scoffed.

"What, these shit guys dare to act so recklessly! His grandmother's, really when I was Lao Zhang's knife, I didn't dare to see blood. Believe it or not, I'll take the troops out and kill all the trash that only barks outside. The rugged general raised his brows, his eyes widened like brass bells, and shouted.

"Ahem, the general said carefully. Since Your Majesty has not spoken out in this matter, there is naturally a reason, and we should not interfere at will. Our mission is only to protect the Tower of Babel, so why bother ourselves. The middle-aged scribe's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and he hurriedly persuaded the general who wanted to kill, and he couldn't cry or laugh in his heart.

Outside the camp, with the appearance of the guard generals, people's emotions were obviously getting more and more excited.

"Rush with me, knock down the Tower of Babel, and see the world in the right way. Let the Holy One listen to the voices of the people and understand that traitors and traitors have misled the country. The leading Confucian was full of fearlessness in sacrificing his life for death, waving his arms and rushing towards the camp.

As he took the lead, tens of thousands of people slammed down the camp gates like a tsunami, rushing towards the thousands of guards who were on standby. I don't know who was too nervous, a sharp arrow slashed at the crowd from the defenders, and then it seemed to trigger a chain reaction, hundreds of sharp arrows tore through the void, and rushed towards the crowd with a whistling sound.

"Woohoo!"

The sound of sharp arrows breaking through the sky came, and the guard generals and middle-aged scribes looked at the sharp arrows that broke through the air, and their expressions couldn't help but change at the same time.

It's over, something big is going to happen!

The Imperial Palace, the Great Hall of Parliament.

Mo Chen sat on the luxurious dragon chair with an indifferent expression, and the civil and military officials stood on both sides nervously, lowering their heads and not daring to raise their heads, and even holding their breath as much as possible.

On the central aisle, more than a dozen officials, large and small, knelt on the ground, headed by Su Wei, the top Confucian Su Wei who was the prime minister of the left dynasty.

Su Wei's gray-haired, slightly emaciated figure knelt on the ground and looked extremely miserable, hiding his face and crying: "Your Majesty, you have to be the master for us." Zhang Shang was rude and rude, regarded the common people and Confucianism as a mustard, wantonly slaughtered the protesting people and Confucianism, and caused thousands of casualties. ”

"Your Majesty, there were 932 casualties among ordinary people in this battle, including 45 Confucian scholars in the Xiucai position and 14 Confucian scholars in the Jinshi position. If Zhang Shang cannot be severely punished, it will be difficult to calm the resentment of the people of the world. ”

The officials cried one after another, making the hall look a little noisy. They all spoke in a sad and indignant tone, as if if they didn't kill Zhang Shang, Mo Chen was a serious dereliction of duty and an incompetent emperor.

Mo Chen's expression was indifferent, he glanced at the people who were crying below, and then looked at the civil and military officials, and said indifferently: "What do you mean by Aiqing?" ”

The civil and military officials were silent, and no one answered for a few seconds.

"What, are you Aiqing deaf or dumb." Mo Chen's right index finger tapped lightly twice on the armrest of the dragon chair, making a crisp metallic sound.

The voice seemed to contain supreme magic, suppressing everyone's cries, and it seemed to ring in everyone's hearts, making them can't help but tremble and suddenly wake up.

The expressions of the civil and military officials changed slightly, and their hearts suddenly rose. Since Mo Chen's accession to the throne, although he has decided matters big and small, he has never had such a stern tone as today.

This thing is a big trouble!

"Wechen is guilty, please forgive your majesty."

Their hearts were cold, and they didn't dare to easily mix with the bad things of Confucianism, so they knelt on the ground and kowtowed to apologize. The officials who were crying at the central government gradually lost their voices, and they looked at each other cautiously one by one, their eyes full of solemnity and worry.

Something seems to be wrong, Your Majesty is angry!

When everyone thought of this, their hearts slowly sank and they became a little more uneasy.
