On the top of Longshan, Zhongshan Zhaoren Shrine.

Since the good news that Yao Ba was about to conquer the north of the Spiral Division, Zhongshan, a city high above the land of the Zhao people, began to nervously prepare for a carnival.

Zhao Guo, the head of the West Pole Trading Company, took the lead in undertaking this ceremony. At the General Council of Elders, the expenditure of 60,000 gold squares was generously approved. And there is no need for the repayment of the treasury of Zhao Guo, all of which are served by the Xiji Trading Company.

Throughout the city, the roads have been renovated, all kinds of exotic flowers and plants have been transplanted along the roadside, several squares have been leveled, and master craftsmen have been invited to create a seven-storey high, cascading fountain in the center of the city.

There are about 70,000 households and more than 400,000 residents in Zhongshan. The Qin and Zhao countries went far away to establish a country in Rongqi, and the land resources in the country were abundant, so there were more families in the hinterland of Donghua than the big families. Moreover, after the change of the system of Yao Ba, the Zhao State basically cut off the old nobles and old lords in the country who had been passed down from generation to generation in the face of the complicated rebellion that spread throughout the country, and the number of households was even more scattered.

For the triumphal ceremony of the Northern Expedition, the residents of Zhongshan gave each household a horse of kudzu cloth to make new clothes, as well as two bottles of wine and 200 copper coins. Because the number of households has increased, the expenses have also increased significantly, but it is not a great thing for the West Pole Trading Company, which has a monopoly on almost all the resources and trade routes in the Western Wilderness.

The most important thing is that as long as you please this overlord, what is it for tens of thousands of gold squares?

When Yao Ba ascended the throne, the Xiji Trading Company still implicitly regarded itself as the behind-the-scenes manipulator of Qin and Zhao. Whoever is in power, Nishiji Trading Company has enough resources and strength to allow them to act for the benefit of Nishiji Trading Company.

But now. Although the entire West Pole Trading Company did not express it clearly, the elders of the joint meeting knew it in their hearts. The entire West Pole Trading Company is afraid that it is already trembling at the feet of this overlord!

Yao Ba reigned for 18 years, and when he killed the five brothers who were vying for power with him, they all destroyed him. At that time, the master of the three marquis was the sword god Tuan Zun of Zhao State, who was already cultivating in the early stage of the fourth realm of washing the marrow, and was known as the invincible of Zhao State. His daughter also married the third marquis, and together they killed Yao Ba. Tuan Zun killed the Zhao Ren Divine Palace, and the two had a fierce battle in the depths of Longshan, and the last one who came out was Yao Ba, who was only twenty-six years old!

In the third year of his reign. Yao Ba immediately waved his army to the west. Killed into the depths of the Wuju River and returned a year later, known as a great victory, the Rouran people were vulnerable. Qin Xianghou was encouraged by the achievements of his juniors. Therefore, he also gathered a large army to expedition to the Western Wilderness. and introduced Yao Ba as a helper. The Battle of Senkaihara. Yao Ba did not arrive, and Qin Xianghou was defeated and died. Later, Qin and Zhao knew that Yao Ba was not just a simple victory. Instead, he traveled thousands of miles to attack the royal court of the Immortal Family. took the royal banner of the Eternal Family, killed at the foot of the Eternal Life Hall of the Rouran Holy Land, and forced the Rouran Immortal Family to prostrate at his feet!

Under his command, the Rouran people led the Marquis of Qin Xiang into depth, and finally defeated the Qin army in the first battle of Qianhaiyuan. And in the battle of Qianhaiyuan, Yao Ba may have secretly led Tu Shiqi to participate! The national situation of Qin and Zhao has been reversed since then. In the west of Rongqi, the Qiang Zhao family is dominant.

And Yao Ba's attention turned back to China at this time. At that time, there were many lords and nobles in the Zhao State, and the strength was still above the Qin State. The only reliable strength in Yao Ba's hands is just to ride suddenly. And this bit of strength is not enough to support Yao Ba's ambition to devour heaven and earth.

Yao Ba decisively introduced Xingfu as the prime minister, and began to change the system in China, eliminating these family fiefs that had been passed down for many years, and returning all the domestic authority to the Hou family. Sure enough, this move provoked civil unrest in Zhao. The family clan raised troops in Fanqu, and at its peak, there were more than 300,000 coalition troops, and there were countless martial artists, and the Tiandao Sect also chose to stand on the side of these family families at that time, and the West Pole Trading Company also secretly gave economic support. The allied forces of the family even surrounded Zhongshan!

It was Yao Ba again, who led the Tushi cavalry to fight in the east and west, first relieved the siege of Zhongshan, and killed more than 90 strong people in the alliance army. The soldiers surrounded the Holy Hall of the Heavenly Dao Sect, and forced the Heavenly Dao Sect to pray to the heavens and beg to surrender. After ten years of hard fighting, this Fanqu rebellion, which was almost jointly initiated by the entire Zhao family, was finally quelled, and the authority of the entire Zhao State was collected in the Zhao Ren Divine Palace!

It is precisely because of the ten years of civil strife of the Zhao people that the Qin State has been able to survive until now after the Battle of Qianhaiyuan, and Shi Wuju is facing Rouran to play his sword town in the Western Wilderness.

As the Fanqu Rebellion came to an end, Yao Ba left the final rebellion to Xing Fu to preside, and led the Tushi Cavalry to the north. Go to the last wild place in the entire Donghua to hone his strength. Along the way, Yanhou gathered the allied forces of various departments to block it, and it was also broken by Yao Ba in a battle!

After the Fanqu Rebellion, the actual strength of Zhao State has actually been reduced. But as long as Yao Ba is still there, the name of Qiang Zhao cannot be shaken!

And now, since his accession to the throne, he has been involved in countless bloody storms and experienced legendary strong overlords, and he is about to return. The West Pole Trading Company can't wait to take out all its belongings to curry favor with this overlord who has been going on a three-year northern expedition, and I don't know how powerful it is!

The budget of 60,000 gold squares was quickly spent. And the joint meeting of the elders of the West Pole Trading Company did not hesitate to add.

Even in these days, the Beiban juggling invited by the West Pole Trading Company from Yandi, the Qu Society invited from Korea, and the illusion troupe from Qidi all over Zhongshan performed on stage without taking a penny. It is to create an atmosphere that frantically welcomes the return of the overlord of the Zhao people!

And the Zhaoren Shrine at the top of Zhongshan, the renovation and decoration are all presided over by Xiangbang Xingfu. This high-powered Xiangbang also put down a lot of things at hand and threw himself into the work of preparing for Yao Ba's triumph.

At this time, there was a sudden news that the Seven Yao Formation of the Double Eagle Pass had reappeared, and the three major kings of Rouran had been wiped out in front of the Double Eagle Pass.

～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～～

Xing Fu was dressed in a red robe and stood on the terrace at the highest point of the Divine Palace. This terrace, also built by order of Yao Ba, juts out from the front of his dormitory, and stands high above the huge statue of Zhao Zhenghou.

Even this ancestor who opened up the country of Zhao Hou must live at the feet of his Yao Ba.

The strong wind blew from above, and Xing Fu's red robe fluttered. Despite his stocky build, he could stand there. It also has a kind of majesty.

At his feet is the whole of Zhongshan. 400,000 inhabitants are bustling with each other in the streets. The seven city gates in Zhongshan were wide open, and all kinds of materials were forming a convoy of endless inputs, all of which were prepared for the carnival of Yao Ba's return.

The huge seven-storey fountain, glowing with colorful colors in the sun, the juggling of swallows, the Korean music society, and the illusion of Qi people, are being staged all over the city.

The entire Zhao country, tens of millions of people. Now they are all the people of the Hou Chamber. The four major legions formed in the past ten years. is no longer the private army of an aristocratic family, only obeying the orders of the marquis and his minister.

There was a sudden sound of footsteps behind Xing Fu, and without looking back, Xing Fu knew that this was Cheng Yangbo, the captain of the guard. In fact, it is an eye that the Demon Court puts beside him.

Among the nineteen gods and demons. The Eighth Heavenly Demon.

The sound of footsteps. It was also deliberately issued by Cheng Yangbo. With his cultivation. As long as he deliberately hides it, even if it is Xing Fu himself, it will be difficult to discover his whereabouts!

Xing Fu didn't look back. Said lightly: "What did that guy say?"

Cheng Yang's jade body stood behind Xing Fu, and the jade face that couldn't tell his age still had his usual cynical smile.

“............ What else can that guy say? He took a large number of women to the Spirit Wood Forest to hunt, this is the life that a man should live............ It was easy to get in touch with him and ask what was going on. He said that the three kings' tents raided the Shuangying Pass this time, and it had nothing to do with the Changsheng family, if the three wolf kings could come back, the Changsheng family would still have to settle accounts with them. ”

Xing Fu nodded: "The Changsheng family is quite honest, if he dares to make a move, Qi Bi Zhusheng will also return with the Hou Wang, he is happy to find the Changsheng family for revenge............ Then did you ask, it's not the Immortal Family secretly manipulating, is that his ghost?"

Cheng Yangbo smiled: "He said he forgot." ”

"Forgot?" Xing Fu snorted. Turning his head, a plain face turned out to be murderous.

"King Hou is about to return, the big move is imminent, what else does he want to do? Without King Hou's action, this seat can kill him!"

Cheng Yangbo spread his hands, looking indifferent: "Xiangbang wants to kill that guy, I'm happy to see it happen anyway." ”

Xing Fu looked at Cheng Yangbo deadly, and only turned around after a while: "You talk to the Demon Court, and restrain that guy well." This is also the plan of the Demon Court!"

Cheng Yangbo's smile seemed to be engraved on his face, and it looked a little weird: "Why didn't Xiangbang tell the Demon Court himself? You are the Third Heavenly Demon, and you have much more weight than me to speak." ”

Xing Fu snorted coldly: "You are much more trusted than me in the Demon Court, so you don't have to be polite." ”

Cheng Yangbo thought about it, and finally nodded: "Then I'll say it, the important thing now is indeed to fight to the east of Rongqi as soon as possible." That Hou Wang, what are you still rubbing on the road............ I said that it would be too rebellious to return from the far north between the ice sea and the volcano without a little injury. You must know that a peerless powerhouse like King Zhou Mu back then, after the expedition to the Western Wilderness, he also recuperated in Shuangying Pass for three years............"

He babbled there, Xing Fu did not move, and ignored him.

Cheng Yangbo himself was bored, and asked again: "The reappearance of the Twin Eagle Guan Mu King Array, maybe it has something to do with the source of the sun." Isn't there the shadow of those guys east of Rongqi behind them? You must know that the source of half of the sun is in their hands. Do you have to wait for the return of the prince? The longer this variable drags on, the more serious trouble there will be in the future!"

This sentence finally touched Xing Fu, and he said coldly: "Is that what the Demon Court meant?"

Cheng Yangbo smiled: "I don't know if it's the meaning of the Demon Court, anyway, I know that someone from the Yuntai Sect is already rushing to Shuangying Pass." ”

Xing Fu raised his head to the sky and muttered to himself: "Variables, variables........."

He slowly turned around again and said to Cheng Yangbo: "You go to Heyang for me and tell that Heyang Jun that it's time to make a move! No matter which one you fight, in short, now the Qin State can't let the Shi family's power grow stronger because of this big victory in the Double Eagle Pass! Shi Wuju is said to be in retreat, and the Hou Wang has not returned, and he has already contained the strongest opponent for them, which is their opportunity!"

Cheng Yangbo nodded, and suddenly asked again: "Do you want me to make a move?" It's really boring to live in Zhongshan. ”

Xing Fu said coldly: "Whatever you want." ”

Cheng Yangbo smiled, nodded slightly to Xing Fu, turned around and strode away.

Xing Fu was still standing there, staring blankly at the Zhongshan Xiongcheng at his feet.

Originally, the Qin State, in his eyes, was just a battle result that could be picked at any time. It's just that before making a big move, don't oppress too much, force the Qin people and dogs to jump over the wall in a hurry, introduce the forces east of Rongqi into the Qin State, and resist stubbornly. The Qin Hou Yi line may not have been willing to do this, because the introduction of the forces east of Rongqi and the invasion of the Zhao people will have the same result for them, that is, the Qin Hou Yi line, which has since disappeared.

Therefore, Xing Fu is not willing to have any more incidents before the big move, and everything is calm. Just wait for Yao Ba to return.

But here in Shuangying Pass, there are variables. The power of the historians who are loyal to the line of the Marquis of Qin has become stronger, and if they are entangled with the Qin State for a long time, God knows what obstacles will be created to him and Yao Ba's ideals!

The ideals of the past ten years seem to be close to being felt.

At this time, it is time for Heyangjun to move the chess piece and suppress the momentum of the historian. Although there was chaos in the Qin State early, it was not his plan. But these small troubles, if you don't deal with them decisively sooner, may be big troubles in the future!

Why hasn't Yao Ba rushed back yet............ Could it really be as Cheng Yangbo said, on the way to the north, he was also injured?

Also, where did that Xu Le come from? Is he a member of the Shi family, or is he a pawn laid by those forces east of Rongqi? It is better to test it!

Let's use Heyang-kun's chess piece and see how many shadows hidden in the shadows will come out!(To be continued......)
