Chapter 465: My Words Are the Words of the Sun and Moon Emperor
Many countries and dynasties in the East and West had different cabinet systems, and such a central organization composed of elites with great power was undoubtedly a shock to the original imperial power.
The newly established cabinet of the Sun and Moon Empire, although it is also the word "cabinet", is neither the same as the cabinet of the Ming and Qing dynasties, nor is it completely similar to the cabinet of Britain and France, but a new cabinet system with the characteristics of the sun and the moon.
The position of the first assistant of the cabinet is held by the chief mirror Hongchen of Mingde Hall, and the rest of the members are also strong people who have been recommended or appointed by the new emperor himself.
The new emperor has great trust in the cabinet, and the power delegated to him is enormous, and all political affairs are handled by the cabinet with full authority.
There was opposition in the court, and one of the biggest obstacles came from the old princes.
The use of the royal family is also subject to the approval of the cabinet, and although there has been no abnormality so far, it is by no means a good sign, and they are unlikely to agree to it.
The new emperor was no longer in a hurry to attack these imperial relatives for the time being, and when the political situation gradually stabilized, he announced that he would concentrate on retreat and practice, and leave the affairs completely to the cabinet.
At this time, the head of the cabinet, Jing Hongchen, really has the power to lean towards the government and the opposition, although the opposition is still very strong, but no one can really break his position above 10,000 people under him.
Moreover, after Jing Hongchen took over the power, he also showed a state of hard work and conscientiousness, and did not take the opportunity to fight against the same party and disagree, at least in terms of governing the country, he has a certain level. No matter how unconvinced the strong people such as Starry Sky Douluo Ye Yulin were, they could only swallow this breath.
The Northern Earth Alliance has been completely taken over as a royal property, and other underground forces do not dare to provoke it at all, after all, even the Ordinary Alliance and the Aodu Chamber of Commerce only have a prince platform, and behind the Northern Earth Alliance stands the current new Imperial Majesty.
Shangguan Wei'er, the leader of the Ordinary Alliance, couldn't help but secretly rejoice, fortunately, he chose to bet on both sides, which not only kept the Ordinary League and Xu Tianran at a distance, but also set up a cooperative relationship with the Northland Alliance.
At this moment, in a luxurious room in the Qingshi Hotel, Huo Yuhao was teaching Huo Qiu'er.
Huo Qiu'er's expression was serious, holding the Dark Green Dragon of the Rank Carving Knife in his hand, and he was concentrating on inscribed the core magic circle on a piece of Mithril.
Tianmeng was lying on the sofa next to him with the octagonal on his head, and the Ice Emperor and the Snow Emperor didn't know where to hang out together.
Now Huo Yuhao's apparent identity is the big red man next to His Majesty and Hongchen Shoufu, even if the royal family members see him, they have to be polite, and no one dares to ask where the people around him come from.
"Yes, the hand should be steady, the texture of the core circle is regular, it is nothing more than meticulous and patient."
Huo Yuhao reminded beside him, but Huo Qiu'er snorted softly in his heart.
Meticulous, patient, easy to say, it would be nice to make a soul guide if it was really that simple.
Spiritual detection sharing and spiritual sensitivity were auxiliary soul skills that were extremely beneficial to inscriptions, but Huo Qiu'er refused Huo Yuhao's assistance.
Her inscription was quickly completed, and she tossed Mithril over her hand.
"Alright."
After Huo Yuhao took it, he took it in his hand and looked at it for a while, then nodded and said, "Congratulations, according to the standards of Mingde Hall, you are already a quasi-fifth-level soul master, but unfortunately I don't have a badge in my hand to award to you now." β
Not long ago, Huo Qiu'er was only a fourth-level soul master, and after Huo Yuhao's guidance, she quickly broke through to the fifth level.
"I don't need a badge to prove it." Huo Qiu'er said lightly and asked rhetorically, "Your current soul master level should already be level seven, right?" β
"Yes." Huo Yuhao nodded in acknowledgement.
The seventh-level soul master is already the standard for mentors in the Mingde Hall who can start to lead students independently.
At this moment, two figures, a man and a woman, broke into the room.
"I'm coming." The young man exudes a cold temperament, and cherishes words like gold.
Huo Yuhao smiled and looked at the comer: "Brother Jiechen, do you know why I called you here?" β
"The Red Dust Hall Master has already told us." Ji Jiechen said indifferently, "He wants to recommend a group of students from Mingde Hall to enter the army, preferably excellent students from the actual control soul guidance department." β
Although he was cold by nature, it was not difficult to see what the purpose of Mingdetang's move was.
"The decision is up to the individual, the master of the Red Dust Hall will not force you, if you don't agree, you can continue to stay in the Mingde Hall, after all, the army is not a random place."
Before he finished speaking, Jing Ziyan behind Ji Jiechen grabbed the words and said, "Eh, Huo Yuhao, what are you in a hurry, did we say we didn't agree?" If we don't agree, why are we here? β
Ji Jiechen didn't care about the Jing Ziyan behind him, but looked directly into Huo Yuhao's eyes and said coldly: "I only have one question. β
"What's the problem?"
"In the army, can you meet a strong enough strongman?"
Huo Yuhao smiled when he heard this, nodded and said, "Of course, I assure you that there are only a lot more battles in the army than in Mingdetang. β
"Okay." Ji Jiechen tapped his jaw, "I agree." β
Seeing that Ji Jiechen agreed so happily, Huo Yuhao was very pleased, and sometimes if he did what he liked, he would find that although people like Ji Jiechen were difficult, they were also quite easy to handle.
Huo Yuhao looked at Jing Ziyan, and before he could ask, Jing Ziyan couldn't wait to say, "Hey, I also agree, but I have a request." β
"What requirements?"
"I must be placed in the same legion as Ji Jiechen."
Before Huo Yuhao could speak, Jing Ziyan covered his ears and explained.
"Let's explain first, I don't necessarily want to stick to this frozen fish, it's just that he definitely can't take care of himself in the army alone, so it should be okay for us to be different between men and women, right?"
Jing Ziyan's intentions were self-evident, the more he explained, the more he was empty, Huo Yuhao smiled knowingly, and said, "This is easy to do, the master of Hongchen Hall will arrange everything." β
Some of the students who graduated from the Actual Control Soul Guide Department were already developing in the direction of the army, in addition to Ji Jiechen and Jing Ziyan, Mingdetang also recommended seven outstanding students to be sent to the army this time.
The current major army commanders are not from Mingdetang, but these nine students only need to slowly grow into the backbone of the army, and they can already greatly improve Mingdetang's control over the army.
At this time, Ji Jiechen said lightly: "Does the legion leader have to be a ninth-level soul master to serve?" β
At present, the heads and deputy leaders of the major soul master groups are all ninth-level soul masters, but there is no explicit rule that only ninth-level soul masters can serve as the head of the group.
Unlike nobles who were born with hereditary titles, the army is the place where seniority and strength are most valued, and the commander of the regiment parachuted in cannot convince the below. There are so many ninth-level soul masters in the country, and there will be no more positions after they are divided, and the vacant head can only be backward compatible and choose an eighth-level soul master.
But listening to Ji Jiechen's tone, he, a seventh-level soul master, also wanted to get involved in the position of the legion leader, which inevitably seemed a little arrogant.
However, his frivolity was very much to Huo Yuhao's appetite, and Huo Yuhao only replied with four words: "Those who are capable live in it." β
When Ji Jiechen heard this, he didn't stay for long, and after making a bow, he turned around and left with Jing Ziyan and returned to Mingde Hall.
Huo Yuhao lowered his head and estimated the time.
Next, he will first send Xingluo and Heavenly Soul on behalf of the sun and moon, and when he returns, he will deal with the glorious Grand Duke in the north who wants to establish his own principality.
When you come back from the north, you can pass by the Demon Forest and see if the headquarters of the Holy Spirit Sect is still there. However, it is estimated that there is a high probability that the Holy Spirit Sect will move its headquarters, and it is unlikely that it will remain in the Sun and Moon Empire.
You can only pick up the leaks and see if you can find any clues.
In this way, the itinerary for at least one month to two months in the future will be full.
Huo Yuhao somewhat understood why the emperor was not necessarily the strongest, there were so many things in a day from morning to night, and there was not much time for cultivation at all.
Huo Qiu'er looked at him, and suddenly said coldly: "Are you going back to Xingluo to see your little princess?" β
Huo Yuhao frowned and looked at her: "Your words are not wrong in terms of expression, but they have a strong tendency. β
"Hmph." Huo Qiu'er said, "You did all this, you shouldn't have given the Sun and Moon Empire to the Star Luo Empire stupidly, right?" β
Huo Yuhao's expression froze, and he said lightly: "Of course not." β
β¦β¦
On the east side of the Mingdou Mountain Range, the camp of the Western Army Group of the Star Luo Empire.
Located in the center of the Central Army station, in the center of one of the largest camps, a handsome and tall man was handling military affairs, with a fishy iron temperament emanating from his resolute face, and in his double eyes, there seemed to be two fierce tigers.
This person was Dai Hao, the White Tiger Duke who commanded the Western Group Army of the Star Luo Empire.
"Newspaperβ"
A loud long voice came from outside the tent, making the White Tiger Duke put down his military affairs for the time being, and looked at the White Tiger soldiers who were hurrying into the camp tent.
"Report to the marshal, there is an urgent report!"
After rushing into the camp, the white tiger soldier immediately knelt down on one knee and saluted, holding a letter in both hands, although the letterhead had not yet been opened, his eyes were full of surprise.
"Panic, what kind of system?"
An old man beside Duke White Tiger first scolded coldly before saying, "Take it." β
"Yes." Only then did the White Tiger pro-soldier stand up and present the letterhead nervously.
The White Tiger Duke first asked in a deep voice, "Is it the will from Star Luo City?" β
The White Tiger soldier swallowed his saliva and said worriedly: "No, yes...... It was sent from the Sun and Moon Empire. They have sent a messenger today. β
The Sun and Moon Empire?
Hearing these four words, even the White Tiger Duke couldn't help but be stunned for a few seconds, and after coming back to his senses, he hurriedly looked at the letterhead in his hand.
Sure enough, on the cover of the letterhead, there is a delicate golden sun and silver moon, which is a totem that symbolizes the empire of the sun and the moon. And there are also words written on it by the Duke of the White Tiger himself.
The two armies fought without slashing, and the Duke of White Tiger hurriedly opened the letterhead and flipped through it. The words on it caught his eye, and this White Tiger Douluo did not appear to be out of shape because of surprise, but his shrunken pupils were enough to reflect his current mood.
The old man rarely saw Duke White Tiger show such an expression, and asked, "Marshal, but the war letter from the Sun and Moon Empire?" β
"No, it's not a war letter." There was a hint of disbelief in Duke White Tiger's deep voice, and he handed the letterhead to the old man, "Old Du, it's a truce letter sent by the Sun and Moon Empire. β
"Not only are they willing to cease fire from now on, but they also agree to open up border trade, establish trading cities in areas with territorial disputes, and coexist peacefully with the Star Luo Empire."
"As a sign of sincerity, they are willing to send an embassy to Star Luo City to discuss diplomatic matters with Your Majesty."
Du Lao also couldn't believe the content on the letterhead, and his eyes widened to read every word on it.
"Marshal, be careful. lest the tricks of the Sun and Moon Empire relax their vigilance. Du Lao first persuaded, "You know, they were in the Soul Master Contest before, but they colluded with the Holy Spirit Sect to take the elites of the whole continent as hostages. What other conspiracy they can't do? β
"They must be preparing to attack Xingluo now, if they take the opportunity to successfully attack you......"
Duke White Tiger frowned and analyzed in a deep voice: "The letter said that the new emperor of the sun and moon defeated Xu Tianran in the big competition. The new emperor is a lord and a faction, and he does not share the heavens with the Holy Spirit Sect. If all this is true, I am afraid that peace on the border is possible. β
After thinking for a while, he instructed Du Lao: "First send the news back to Xingluo City, treat the Sun and Moon Messenger, and wait for Your Majesty's will." β
"Yes."
The urgent order in the direction of Xingluo City came back within a few days, and the Xingluo Emperor Xu Jiawei and the ministers were also extremely shocked by this, and after repeated discussions, they listened to the advice of Princess Jiujiu and received the Sun and Moon Mission.
However, Duke Baihu and the entire Western Army Group could not relax their vigilance, and they had to beware of the Sun and Moon Army launching a surprise attack in the name of peaceful diplomacy, and at the same time, several worshippers and ministers came to the vicinity of the Mingdou Mountain Range.
The Sun and Moon Messenger returned to the Sun and Moon Empire with a reply from the White Tiger Duke, and after a short and long wait, finally the Sun and Moon Mission arrived in the midst of the strict battle of the entire Western Army Group.
This is the first time in so many years that the Sun and Moon Empire has officially sent a diplomatic mission to Xingluo, and Xingluo naturally has to be received with the highest standard.
Grand Duke of the White Tiger was the highest-ranking dignitary to represent the Star Luo Empire, and the Sun and Moon Empire sent Marshal Tian who was opposite him to guard the east.
The two have been enemies for many years, and when they met, they didn't speak, and when the two pairs of eyes looked at each other, the two iron-blooded momentum belonging to the soldiers collided, which aroused a strong smell of gunpowder.
"Duke White Tiger, I didn't expect us to meet again, it wasn't on the battlefield." Marshal Tian performed a sun and moon courtesy, and said in a deep voice, there seemed to be some regret and dissatisfaction in his tone.
Duke White Tiger returned the salute with Xingluo etiquette, and also responded in a deep voice: "It's better never to be on the battlefield." β
In order to show its sincerity, the Sun and Moon Empire did not send too many troops, and the soldiers who came were all dressed in ceremonial clothes and did not carry weapons.
The place where the two armies met was an open terrain and a relatively flat area in the Mingdou Mountains.
Duke White Tiger quickly scanned the surroundings, and his keen vision took in the scenery in the mountains. There was no cover suitable for an ambush around, and the ground was flat and open as far as the eye could see, and it was unlikely that the Sun and Moon Empire would not be able or have the conditions to launch an ambush.
"Are they really here for peace talks?"
On the other side, see each other with courtesy, and the Duke of White Tiger will naturally treat him with courtesy.
The meeting place was biased towards the territory of the Star Luo Empire, and on their home field, even if the Sun and Moon Empire wanted to sneak attack, the White Tiger Duke was confident that the other party would not be able to take advantage.
Marshal Tian leaned over slightly and made a gesture of please.
"These are the missions appointed by His Majesty himself."
Before Marshal Tian finished his introduction, Duke Baihu was already stunned.
In the middle of the Sun and Moon Mission, the one standing in the center was the figure he hadn't seen since he saw him in a hurry a few months ago.
"Yuhao?"
Why is he here?
Duke White Tiger immediately recognized Huo Yuhao, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, and his expression changed dramatically.
Not only did the expression of the Duke of the White Tiger change, but the expressions of many of the White Tiger's soldiers also changed, and they subconsciously clenched the weapons in their hands.
Previously, they had practiced for a long time, and if they found an abnormality in the White Tiger Duke, they could attack at any time.
Duke White Tiger's complicated tone was filled with incomprehension and confusion: "Yuhao, why are you here?" β
He didn't expect that father and son would reunite in this way after a long absence.
Why is Huo Yuhao here?
Did he betray Xingluo and defect to the sun and moon?
Or did he become a lobbyist and convince the Sun and Moon Emperor to agree to let go of the dispute?
Huo Yuhao obviously felt the changes in the mood fluctuations around him, stepped forward and saluted, and said slowly: "Marshal White Tiger, hello, I am the chief ambassador of the Sun and Moon Mission this time, and on behalf of the Sun and Moon, I will bring peace and development to the Star Luo Empire. β
Duke White Tiger quickly regained his composure: "Can you promise that what the Sun and Moon Empire said about peaceful coexistence is true?" β
Du Lao immediately raised his hand to the surroundings, and the White Tiger soldiers resumed their polite posture.
Huo Yuhao's tone was firm, without the slightest hint of lying, and he smiled and said: "Of course it's true, what I brought is the will of the Sun and Moon Emperor, and what I represent is the Sun and Moon Emperor." β
"My words are the words of the Sun and Moon Emperor."
