Section 513 - Persecution
Every Friday.
If there are no major events or emergencies, the imperial court that controls the thousands of miles of the Dawu Dynasty and the hundreds of millions of people will only hold an early dynasty on the fifth day of the month.
Ministers did not have to get up at midnight every day, enter the palace at midnight, and listen to the whip to enter the court, and most of the time, the court officials only went to their respective yamen to follow the steps step by step, and dealt with the twists and turns from the 36 provinces of the country in an orderly manner.
In the Taiji Palace, the chief officials of each ministry and hall played important things one by one in order, all of which involved a lot of important matters, and it was impossible to make a decision with only one part, and a holy judgment was required.
These recitals were sent to the empress's desk in advance before they were read out in the court, so as not to catch Her Majesty off guard.
The empress is also a human being, and it is inevitable that there will be mistakes in making hasty decisions.
"Hai'an Road has recently hit the shore with huge waves, nearly 100 villages have been affected, and more than 1,000 people have been injured or injured. ”
The jade wat of Cao Jizhi, the head of the household, started to play.
The voice fell, the Taiji Hall was silent, and everyone looked at their noses and waited quietly.
Not long after Empress Xiangjun ascended the throne, she successfully established her prestige in the court.
Despite the change of imperial power, it is inevitable that there will be people with ill intentions who want to fish in troubled waters, and even take the opportunity to rebel, who would have thought that the empress not only did not panic, but instead strategized, after a series of quick and precise strikes, careerists were caught or eradicated.
The Dawu Dynasty restored the Haiyan River in a short period of time, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, only a few important ministers in the court knew how a small family of Jade who grew up in the small town of Fengwolf Road on the northwest border of the Dawu Dynasty grew into an amazing empress.
"Quasi, with the worship of Liu An of the Worship Academy, the Yin Master is in charge of this matter, and the other ten treasures are selected from the imperial treasury, and the magic is called to cooperate with the demon elimination, and the nearest county government is ordered to open a warehouse and release grain, and the military department issues a document, and Hai'an Dao sends out three thousand Zhichong Mansion Army to supervise the distribution of disaster grain, maintain order, and assist the people in rebuilding their homes, do others have any additional opinions?"
On the nine-dragon throne, which symbolizes the supreme imperial power, Empress Xiangjun spoke calmly and indifferently.
The ministers still look at their noses and their noses.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"Obey the order!"
The head of the household department and the secretary of the military department responded at the same time, and another eunuch wrote down an edict and sent it to the worship house.
The demon clan is raging, relying only on the local capture and the Chong Mansion army, in addition to the huge casualties, the gains outweigh the losses.
"The Ministers Have a ......"
Honglu Siqing shouted loudly, but as soon as he spoke, he saw a eunuch hurriedly walking in.
Empress Xiangjun's face was cold, she raised her hand and made a gesture, Honglu Siqing was slightly stunned, but she stopped.
"What's the matter?"
Interfering with court discussions is a serious crime, no matter who you are, you will inevitably be beaten to death, and even give your life if you are not careful.
This is not that Zhou Xiangjun is hard-hearted and regards human life as a grass, but if there are no rules, there will be no square circle, and only by prohibiting orders can the imperial power be guaranteed
"The people of the Star Luo Sect are here again!"
The eunuch's face was pale, he knew what he was aware of when he suddenly broke into the Taiji Palace, but if he didn't do this, he would let the immortal elders of the Star Luo Sect trespass into the court, and if he didn't report it, he would probably be even more guilty.
"Got it!
Although it was clear that the eunuch had no choice, but the rules were the rules, and no one could cross them, the empress's tone slowed down slightly, but she still ordered the board to be beaten.
"Thank you, thank you, Your Majesty!"
The eunuch trembled, but he was relieved, twenty small boards as a punishment, it is better than being beaten half to death.
Although waiting for the Tai Chi Palace, if there is a slight mistake, you will be severely reprimanded, but risks and opportunities coexist.
One day, if you can be in the heart of the emperor, soaring, unlimited, many people in the palace are extremely red and on an errand in the Taiji Palace.
The two palace guards rushed up violently, threw the eunuch who didn't dare to move to the ground, and dragged him out directly.
"Yo, who's going to hit the board?"
At this time, a voice came from outside the hall gate, and more than a dozen warlocks swaggered into the Taiji Palace, ignoring the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, and came directly to the palace.
The foundation of the Shudao Sect is deep, and even the Offering Courtyard does not dare to provoke easily, and the Empress Xiangjun said expressionlessly: "Is there anything wrong with you?"
Although the mood is invisible, the knuckles on the armrest are slightly white due to the exertion.
The warlock at the head did not put the worldly king in his eyes at all, and proudly arched his hand casually, and said unceremoniously: "We don't talk nonsense, what about this year's offerings?"
With the strength of the Five Palaces and Thirteen Sects, looking at the entire Tianjing City, there is no one who can fight!
This also cultivated the supremacy of the Shudao sect in front of the secular imperial power.
The oppression of the Great Wu Dynasty by Shudao has been a long time, and the emperors of the past dynasties dared not speak out, and there was no way to get to Zhou Xiangjun.
The situation is stronger than people, the other party will not exhaust the water and fish, but it will not make the Dawu Dynasty better, today to demolish a city, tomorrow to destroy a canal, the day after tomorrow to blow up a dam, or rob the local tyrants and inferior gentry, kill officials, it is inevitable that chickens and dogs will jump, which is a headache.
For the sake of the people and the great martial arts, Empress Xiangjun can only swallow her anger and make a false accusation.
However, the same share of offerings as in previous years is unthinkable, both in quality and quantity, it is greatly discounted, which makes the Shudao sect annoyed, and it is also helpless.
The Dao of Magic and the Heavenly Cult started a war, and the consumption of all kinds of heavenly and earthly treasures increased, and the Star Luo Sect, as the representative of the Dao of Arts, sent people to squeeze it again, and the empress found an excuse to send it away casually a few times before, and this time the attitude was naturally not much better.
The empress narrowed her eyes slightly, and said calmly and quietly: "I, Dawu Dynasty, have been plagued by natural disasters and man-made disasters, where can I find any heavenly treasures for you, and I ask you to forgive me for a few more days." ”
To deal with these people in the Dao of Magic, she had all kinds of excuses, neither refused nor easily agreed, and planned to fool the past as usual.
The person at the head didn't take the Empress of the Great Wu Dynasty in his eyes at all, and said coldly: "What kind of natural and man-made disasters, this is not our responsibility, anyway, you have to get everything for us, otherwise I will let you taste the anger of my Shudao sect!"
After speaking, he snorted, and an invisible spiritual power impact spread out to the surroundings, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were dizzy, their bodies staggered, and some people even fell to the ground, unconscious.
This kind of superficial mental impact is not something that ordinary mortals can bear, and there was a great chaos in the Taiji Palace.
The empress slapped the handrail heavily and said angrily: "There are no more responsibilities and obligations in the world, you just want to take benefits, but you don't care about the lives of the people at all, why should I worship you?"
The words of responsibility and obligation were learned from Li Jiaxiaolang, and in many cases, it will become her confidence to convince others, and she has always been invincible.
Only this time, Empress Xiangjun underestimated the shamelessness of the other party.
"Why? Your life is in our hands, life and death are taken, in a word, if you don't want to die, you will obediently obey. ”
Mingzhen showed a mouthful of snow-white teeth, and his tone was full of threat.
The Star Luo Sect successively damaged a number of True Realm real people, not only hurting the vitality of the sect, but also almost shaking the fundamentals, so he did not hesitate to spend a lot of elixir secret treasures that had been collected for a long time, selected young Tianjiao with outstanding qualifications, and joined forces with several elders to help them cultivate to the greatest.
Ming Zhen was one of the lucky newcomers who broke through from the high level of the Condensing Birth Realm to the first level of the True Realm.
At the age of thirty, he achieved the Quanzhen Realm, which was also one of the few in the history of the Star Luo Sect, which was enough for him to raise his eyebrows among his peers.
This time, he led all the fellow sects to the Dawu Dynasty, and the duty of asking for worship was the first sect tolerance after achieving the Quanzhen Realm, and the sect master also promised that if he could exceed the quota, he would give him a separate part to consolidate the current cultivation realm.
Let's count it as a commission reward, which makes Mingzhen extremely strong.
The eyes of several warlocks behind Ming Zhen were always on the face of the empress on the Nine Dragons Throne, and they let out strange laughter from time to time, not knowing what the hell they were thinking.
"Senior brother?"
"Huh?" Ming Zhen turned his head suddenly, and this cold snort didn't seem to be good.
"Ahh
The man saw that Ming Zhen suddenly stared at him expressionlessly, his expression seemed to be unkind, and he was at a loss for a while, until the others next to him gently pulled him, and then he suddenly realized that he was immediately covered in cold sweat, and said respectfully: "Real person!"
"Hmm!"
The same syllables seem to be hummed out of the nose, but they are much more relaxed.
Sure enough, the man was afraid, but he was slandering again, in the past, the senior brother of Mingzhen always called himself senior brother in front of people, but he didn't expect that one day he would cultivate to make great progress, so he turned his face and didn't recognize people, and actually picked up the shelf of a real person.
However, the hurdle from the condensation realm to the Quanzhen realm is like a moat, if you want to break through, the right time, place and people are indispensable, and Ming Zhen is also amazingly qualified, coupled with the help of the elders of the sect and various materials, he was lucky enough to break through several dangers and successfully broke through the realm.
The man quickly adjusted his expression and said with a flattering face: "Ming Zhen Zhenren, the empress of the Dawu Dynasty is young and beautiful and has no husband, it is better for the real person to accept her, everything in the Dawu Dynasty in the future is not to be taken and wanted, wouldn't it be happy!"
"Huh?"
After Ming Zhen was stunned, he looked at the empress on the throne of the Nine Dragons, and he didn't pay attention to it all the time, but when he got serious, he realized that the other party was really the best in the world, and he couldn't help but move for a while, nodded and said: "Good idea! ”
Even if it is an empress, she is just a mortal woman, she has a lifespan of no more than 100, and no matter how beautiful her face is, it is also a passing moment, Ming Zhen only plans to act on the spot at all, and she doesn't mind accepting the other party, so that it is convenient for her sect to go on business.
The civil and military ministers present were all pale, the lord humiliated the ministers to death, and the other party openly teased their own emperor, if it wasn't for the fact that they couldn't beat it, they even had desperate thoughts.
"Bold!"
More than a dozen palace guards rushed over and drew their weapons one after another.
"You're looking for death!"
A military general finally couldn't hold it back, snatched a weapon with his hand, and his whole body was full of true anger, glaring angrily at the people of the Star Luo Sect.
It's okay for these hateful warlocks to covet the heavenly treasures of the Great Wu Dynasty, but now they are peeking at today's empress, and they can bear it, but they can't bear it.
"Even ants dare to fight!"
A Star Luo Sect warlock behind Ming Zhen waved his hand, and the cold sword light flashed around the hall, and he heard the sound of clanging, and all the weapons were cut off, leaving only a short handle.
An exclamation rang out from the Taiji Hall.
The next moment, a fireball slammed into the general's body and blasted it out directly.
The military general was covered in flames, screaming and rolling on the ground, and the guards hurriedly took off their clothes and beat until the palace people brought water and splashed a basin on it, which was finally extinguished.
Rao is like this, the green smoke disperses, the hall is scorched, but the military general is full of bubbles, embarrassed, although it is not fatal, but it is not lightly injured, and the martial arts forging body realm true qi is not weak, and there is no power to resist in the face of spells.
With a chuckle, another fireball shot towards the Nine Dragons Throne, and the warlocks of the Star Luo Sect planned to give this disobedient empress a little color, although they didn't want her life, they also wanted to teach her how powerful the art was.
"Don't!"
The guards rushed forward desperately, trying to block the fireball with their bodies.
How could their speed keep up with a sudden spell.
At this moment, the figure next to the Nine Dragons Throne flashed, raised his hand and grabbed the fireball.
The schadenfreude who was waiting to see the good show was all stunned.
Originally, he thought that the fireball would explode near the Nine Dragons Throne and startle the weak empress, but he didn't expect someone to intercept it.
"Hmph, are people in the art path so shameless?"
The right guard general Bai Shuang, who was in charge of the palace guard, looked at the fireball in his hand, and turned his gaze to those bold Star Luo Sect warlocks, and as soon as he exerted force in his hand, he heard a pop, which was still burning fiercely, and the fireball that emitted a bright orange-red light turned into a wisp of green smoke and dissipated into the air.
"Gangqi, I didn't expect to see the remnants of martial arts here!"
Ming Zhen immediately judged the martial arts cultivation of the person who intercepted the fireball.
Ordinary true qi usually can't help the spells of the Dao, and only by condensing the qi can it have the effect of destroying the spell like this.
Behind him, the Warlocks of the Star Luo Sect were about to unleash spells and flying swords to take down this remnant of the martial arts.
"Stop!"
The empress on the throne of the Nine Dragons, who had never moved, made the warlocks of the Star Luo Sect stop their movements, she glanced at these people in the martial arts coldly, and said in a deep voice: "General Bai is the former general of the prince's mansion, and the current general of the right guard, not a person in the martial arts, you don't want to mess around!"
Xingluozong's reckless behavior deeply angered the empress and the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military forces, and the other party completely regarded the court, which symbolized the supreme ruling power of the Great Wu Dynasty, as his own back garden.
"Hehe, it's okay to let this person go, the real person is willing to tie the knot with Your Majesty, from now on, the Dawu Dynasty and my Xingluo Sect are all one family, and the family doesn't speak two words, what does Your Majesty think?"
A mere mortal realm martial artist who refines qi for gang, Ming Zhen didn't take it to heart, for him, it was just one of the additional magic codes to achieve his goal.
The more he thought about it, the more feasible it became.
If he can include the Great Wu Dynasty in his own bag, this beauty of the country will be branded with the Star Luo Sect, and there are other five palaces and six sects.
The Star Luo Sect can justifiably swallow all the annual offerings of the Great Wu Dynasty.
Looking at the empress's delicate face, Ming Zhen's sneer became louder and louder.
"You ......"
The empress was really angry with this brazen person, the weak is the original sin, she felt a deep powerlessness, no matter how hard she tried her best, racked her brains, but in the end she was still helpless to let others take care of it.
The ministers looked at each other for a while, and there was a slight commotion.
If Dawu and the Shudao Sect are no longer unilateral claims or confrontations, but can cooperate with each other in depth, it seems that it is also a feasible way to be profitable.
As for the Li family Xiaolang in Xiyan Town, who has a marriage contract with the empress, I'm afraid that he is like a lost dog at this time, and there is nowhere to hide when he is chased and killed by the Dao, right?
However, if he hadn't taken the initiative to leave and attracted the revenge of the Shudao Sect, Dawu would never have had room to turn around with the Shudao Sect like he did now.
With his own strength to fight against the five palaces, seven sects and thirteen sects of the Dao of Magic, none of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty are optimistic.
At this time and then, the ministers in the court quickly had other thoughts, if they could take the people of the country as a calculation, what could one person gain or lose.
Almost instantly, the Great Devil Li was thrown away by the ministers who were bent on thinking about the Great Wu Dynasty.
As if he had made some kind of determination, a court official walked out of the civil and military queues, arched at the empress on the Nine Dragons throne, and was about to speak.
"Who wants to rob my little lady Xiangjun?"
A loud voice rushed into the hall, shaking the dust on the temple beams.
