Siniang is naturally not so godly, but he really read the book into it and read it correctly.

The people of the South China Sea may not know. Behind all of them were a pair of hands that gently pushed the whole situation forward.

Maybe they should be grateful. ”

Liu Xin's words made several juniors quite puzzled.

"Several! The fish is stewed, let's eat it together. ”

In the cabin, Ma Dakui and the famous white horse general Feng Ziling prepared dishes for several brothers.

As Feng Ziling, who reported on the seaside in Guangdong, he was easy to catch fish and cook food.

The situation in the South China Sea came to an end, and the five great Kou except for the Zhangjiayin clan returned to the sea.

The rest of the four Kou were all dispersed.

The military households under the command of General White Horse cancelled their household registrations and became ordinary people in the South China Sea again.

The Qingshui Dragon King and the Dryland Dragon King boarded the official ship to the imperial capital one step earlier.

The two showed their talents in managing the city and water respectively.

Emperor Xuyang was not responsible for the previous behavior of these two people, but wanted to reuse them.

Liu Xin got the news from Jinyiwei's channels that one of these two people would be appointed as the prefect of a place, and the other would become the squire of the Ministry of Works.

It's all considered a high ascension.

By the way, Jinyiwei and Dongchang also returned to the South China Sea to shine in the later stage of the South China Sea incident.

Of course, most of the people in Jinyiwei and Dongchang, who were originally in the South China Sea, were cut or escorted to the imperial capital pending trial.

A large number of these people are innocent, but even if you are innocent, you have to go through a series of examinations to know whether you are a good person or not.

And Feng Ziling and Ma Dakui are determined to follow Liu Xin.

Because Liu Xin not only has an identity as a holy sect, but also has an official identity like Jinyi Weishi.

When the matter of the South China Sea reached the last moment, it was Liu Xin who was under the full command of Jinyiwei here.

It was also at this time that Ma Dakui knew that Liu Xin's official body was so big.

Naturally, the Mountain Bandit Alliance was not disbanded.

Liu Xin obtained Mi Yusong's approval through Jinyiwei.

Mountain bandits can still exist, but the location cannot be in the territory of Zhengyang.

The location where activities are allowed is in the west of Zhengyang.

Liu Xin also had insight into Mi Yusong's plan for the first time, which was to put this group of mountain bandits in the territory of the Duke of Shu and give the Duke of Shu some eye medicine.

In fact, in the last period of the South China Sea, Qin Guogong and his cavalry had already withdrawn.

All the way north to the west side of the border pass.

and the army of the Duke of Shu is far away.

The Northern Barbarians were originally ready to move because Qin Guogong took away 100,000 iron horses.

But after some investigation, it was found that behind the gap deliberately left by Zhengyang, the Tibetan Shu Guogong was such a fierce tiger.

After a brief temptation, the Beiban found that the army of the Duke of Shu was much better than the border army.

The current season is also a time for Beiban to cultivate and recuperate, and it is definitely not the best time to go south.

Therefore, after discovering the strength of the Duke of Shu, the Northern Barbarians gave up their plans to go south.

And after the Duke of Shu was forced to expose his strength, he simply let go.

He knew that now was the best time to attack the Emperor.

But he wasn't in a hurry.

He showed his hole cards in front of Wu Guogong.

200,000 well-equipped Shu troops!

This is a real warrior!

The skirmishes of the Northern Barbarians also reached the level of thousands of people.

But the strength of the cavalry of the northern savage grassland ate the turtle in the hands of the Duke of Shu.

The same number of grassland cavalry did not defeat the infantry of the Duke of Shu!

Such a situation made Wu Guogong slightly shocked in his heart.

And the tension between the two sides eased slightly after the return of Qin Guogong with 100,000 cavalry.

The Duke of Shu sent someone to send a letter and presented it directly to His Majesty the Emperor.

In the letters, the Duke of Shu is still the uncle of the country, and his words are quite sincere.

He also told the emperor about his crimes. But at the same time, it is accompanied by a thousand words of explanation.

In the end, the letter is explained as follows:

Now everyone, hello and me, don't use swords casually.

I'm not going to hit you, and you don't want to touch me.

Everyone can just get along with each other.

Everyone didn't know what Shu Guogong meant by these words, and when he was found out that his rebellious heart dared to write such a letter, he simply didn't take Zhengyang in his eyes.

Emperor Xuyang recaptured the South China Sea in one fell swoop, fulfilling a long-cherished wish that several previous emperors had not fulfilled.

The remaining civil and military ministers in the court were in high spirits, and even a few civil ministers were screaming, following their necks and saying that they would send troops to attack the Duke of Shu.

But in the end, they were all refuted by His Majesty the Emperor.

The final result was that the Duke of Shu withdrew his troops and retreated to Sichuan.

Emperor Xuyang and the Duke of Shu are still the relationship between the emperor and the uncle on the surface.

But the Empress is still under house arrest, and that alone speaks volumes about the relationship between the two sides.

And Wu Guogong did not return to the imperial capital from the northland border.

Qin Guogong was stationed in Huguang and joined forces with Wu Guogong to form a barrier in the south and north.

Its purpose is very obvious, that is, to block the Duke of Shu.

Although the court did not understand Emperor Xuyang's decision very much.

But more often than not, Wenchen did not understand the emperor's choice.

And the generals are eager to try one by one.

Qin Guogong went south, although he didn't really fight, but it was also an addiction.

At this time, the DPRK and the Central Committee almost did not spend a single soldier, and they perfectly took the South China Sea.

It can be said that if you want to deal with the Duke of Shu at this time, there will be a lot of people who will stand up and say that they want to do it.

It is definitely not possible to let the Duke of Qin be beautiful.

However, the emperor clearly wanted to ensure the current state of stability of the country.

Because of the incident of the Nanhai Shi clan, there is a large shortage of Chinese courtiers in the court.

He had to solve this part of the problem first.

Three of the six scholars of the DPRK and the Central Cabinet resigned at once.

It is not known whether these three took the initiative to resign from their current bachelor positions or were passive.

The only thing that is certain is that these three people have a lot to do with the Nanhai clan.

Of course, if it is really deeply involved, the emperor will not be merciful.

You must know that during this period, many officials were deposed, whether it was in the central government or in other places.

Some of these people have clear evidence of collusion with the Nanhai Shi clan.

Some of them are relatives of the leaders of the Nanhai Shi clan.

This group of people is the most severe in the four provinces of the South China Sea.

Of course, there's an interesting thing here.

That is, the civil officials of the four provinces of the South China Sea have almost been swept down, and more than eighty percent of them have been removed.

Among them is Huang Chong, the governor of Zhejiang Province and the eldest son of Huang Yinfang. Luan Jujing, governor of Fujian Province. Ai Xueyin, governor of Southern Jiangxi Province.

Shi Maohai, the governor of Guangdong Province, was deposed and convicted, but he himself fled.

It is not surprising that there are some prefects left, such as Xu Teng'e, the prefect of Guangzhou, Huang Shi'an, the prefect of Zhejiang, and so on.

But there are not many military generals who have been deposed and convicted.

Among them, the largest official position is only the commander of the Southern Army Governor's Office, Tongzhi Niu Shilun.

Others, without warning, are transferred from their current positions at the slightest notice.

Then he was arrested on his way back to the imperial capital or on his way to take office elsewhere.

This kind of thing started when Qin Guogong took Zhejiang City without spending a single soldier.

It was as if at that time the court knew that they would win the final victory.

In addition to a large number of civil officials and a small number of military attachés in Zhengyang, a large number of young people have also been used.

Whether it is a descendant of Wenchen like Siniang.

It's still a momentary grass like the Clear Water Dragon King and the Dry Land Dragon King.

All of them have been reused by the Emperor!

Perhaps it was because of such reforms that were being carried out throughout the country that the emperor postponed the confrontation with the Duke of Shu.

But in the end, only a few people know. The reason why the emperor chose not to go to war was because he was not sure!

The brief confrontation between the Duke of Shu and the Northern Barbarians.

Wu Guogong sent people to obtain a lot of key information from the battlefield, including information about the weapons of the Shu Guogong army.

Through these weapons, His Majesty the Emperor had a very intensive correspondence with Wu Guogong, Qin Guogong and others.

Everyone unanimously agreed that the weapons that the Shu Palace now has far exceeded those equipped by the most elite troops of the Zhengyang military.

The weapons used by the army of the Duke of Shu can even be said to have reached the imperial level in the rivers and lakes.

And this is the standard in the army of the Duke of Shu, almost everyone has one such weapon!

In the rivers and lakes, such an emperor-level weapon will be sold for a price of several taels of silver or even ten taels of silver!

Such a large sum of ordnance, such a high specification.

It's hard to imagine how the Duke of Shu got it.

Such a large amount of equipment, unless he has mastered some new forging process.

Otherwise, it would be difficult to do this to such an extent.

So His Majesty the Emperor secretly ordered the Ministry of Industry to study the fragments of these weapons, and it turned out that the materials of these weapons were actually very common, and the key was the forging process!

The quenching temperature is very high!

Far beyond what is possible in today's Royal Workshop.

Of course, it is possible to forge one or two weapons in small batches. But it is the special materials that are able to raise the quenching temperature to such a high level.

But in that case, the cost of forging will increase significantly, or even multiply several times.

At this time, the emperor and several princes began to speculate whether there would be such a possibility.

The Duke of Shu deliberately used a batch of the most exquisite weapons in this battle with the Northern Barbarians, although the cost was also not small, but it was more convincing than the equipment of the whole army.

But is that really the case?

If it is just to cause some psychological burden to the top of Zhengyang, this is too much to underestimate the top of Zhengyang.

In particular, it is too underestimated to look down on His Majesty the Emperor and the Duke of Qin and Wu.

After all, this change in the material of the sword is not felt by ordinary soldiers at all.

Naturally, such pressure will not fall on ordinary soldiers.

In other words, this conjecture is actually to be denied.

Because the Duke of Shu will not know how strong the psychological endurance of these people at the top of Zhengyang is.

It's a bit too boring to do something like that.

This leads the topic in another direction:

How did the Duke of Shu get such a batch of extremely sophisticated weapons?

Because of the high quenching temperature, these weapons have reached the level of emperor-level weapons in terms of hardness and wind power.

Of course, these weapons are slightly inferior in other aspects.

However, this did not affect the use of the army in the slightest, and the weapons in the army were already very seriously worn.

But if such a weapon can be manufactured in batches, then the situation represented by this will have a different impact!

Especially for the war after that, if the 200,000 Shu army is all equipped with such weapons, then for Zhengyang, the Duke of Shu and his entire Shu army will become a hard and difficult bone!

If Zhengyang wants to take down the Duke of Shu, the price it needs to spend will be huge!

Therefore, His Majesty the Emperor will suspend the conquest of the Duke of Shu.

However, if a rebel is left there and not attacked, it is better to say that the time is short, just as there is still an excuse now.

Although the South China Sea incident is largely over, there are still many hidden dangers.

For example, the problem of rivers and lakes in the South China Sea is in the follow-up investigation of Jinyiwei and Dongchang.

The relationship between the Wen family, one of the eight major families in the rivers and lakes, and Huang Yinfang is also very crooked.

There must be some kind of greasy between them, and even Wen Xiangru, who is by the side of the third prince, is also a member of the Wen family.

When the palace guards came to the dormitory of the three princes, they did not find the master of the three princes. Wen Xiangru was able to leave the palace quietly, which already shows his abnormality!

And the Wen family in the South China Sea has also been completely disbanded, and Jinyiwei and Dongchang are trying their best to arrest them.

But over time, it will have a certain impact on the credibility of the entire empire.

After all, anyone can rebel, and if they are not held accountable, is the cost of rebellion too low?

This is likely to cause some unscrupulous people to have some thoughts in their hearts that they should not have.

Of course, this is all a high-level psychological game.

For the people below, such a situation is actually beneficial, and everyone can recuperate.

For example, Liu Xin.

Xiao Qi and Gou San'er still returned to the mountain bandits, because of their beliefs, their interests were here.

Although they led tens of thousands of mountain bandits into the hinterland of Sichuan, there was a certain danger even on the edge.

But the two are still happy.

For them, the more exciting and thrilling life is, the more meaningful it is.

And Liu Xin took Liulang to run around, and finally returned to the imperial capital in mid-May.

Liulang will rest for a short time in the imperial capital, and then return to Luoshen Mountain Villa with Dugu Yueyue.

The situation at Roselle Hill is not too good these days, but it is not bad either.

Dugu Shidao has taken control of the entire Rosewood Villa, but because of the previous events, the Roselle Villa was feared by the imperial court.

Many of the previous business contacts with the imperial court were cut off, and Roselle Mountain Villa is still in lockdown.

It can be said that the South China Sea area was in an uproar during this time, but the entire Roselle Mountain Villa seemed to be wrapped in a layer of mud shell outside.

It fully reflects the appearance of not hearing things outside the window.

Dugu Yueyue has been away from Roselle Villa for a while, so she naturally wants to go back and have a look.

Liulang is also ready to go back to see Dugu Shidao this time.

After all, he was still a little apprehensive when he saw his elders, and it took some time to prepare.

And Liu Xin naturally had to go back to report on his work when he returned to the imperial capital, this time he made a great contribution, and his contribution to the smooth recovery of the entire South China Sea was not small.

Especially some cooperation between him and Siniang.

Several bigwigs in the court are naturally clear about the relationship between Liu Xin and Siniang.

To put it bluntly, this time the secret alliance between the imperial court and the Holy Sect was basically a complete success.

Both sides are relatively satisfied.

Liu Xin's position has already been said to be good, and the position of Jinyi Wei is still a little unworthy before.

But after making a great contribution this time, it seems to be a good match.

Dai De'an was also forcibly promoted to the commander of the Jinyi Guard because of his merits this time.

Mi Yusong said to Dai De'an that the main reason was to be able to get a little more pension after he retired.

Dai De'an couldn't resist it, and he could only accept it happily.

After another half a month, the fifth uncle had already gained a firm foothold at the border pass, and the book was repaired to the imperial capital, and then Liu Xin dispersed the letter to the hands of various brothers and sisters in various places.

On this day, Liulang also embarked on the return journey back to Roselle Villa with Dugu Yueyue and Fan Sisi.

Liu Xin was in the imperial capital and was familiar with his duties in Jinyiwei.

Although he is a member of the Jinyi Guard, the affairs of the Jinyi Guard in the imperial capital have long been no longer needed to be done by him, and Dai De'an also informed him of his appointment in advance.

After a month's rest, he will go to other provinces.

Supervise and inspect the entire Jinyi Guard, and after this round of walking, Liu Xin will become Dai De'an's real right-hand man.

At such a moment, the whole world seems to become peaceful and peaceful.

But the storm did not stop, but quietly happened in a corner that ordinary people could not see.

Just when Liulang accompanied Dugu Yueyue back to Luoshen Villa.

In the rivers and lakes, there is a storm, and a storm is slowly brewing!

The True Demon Sect Master, who had been on guard for a long time in the imperial capital, did not appear.

Not even a single disciple of the True Demon Sect was caught in the Imperial Capital.

Just when Dongchang and Jinyiwei were thinking about whether the True Demon Sect had been hidden, Tianyun Peak, which represented the two holy lands of the two rivers and lakes, was the Heavenly Cloud Peak.

But it was invaded by a group of mysterious powerhouses!

Of course, all of them were repulsed in the end.

But it still brought a lot of losses to the Holy Sect and the Evil Sect.

The elders of the Holy Sect and the Venerable of the Evil Sect all suffered injuries to varying degrees, and there was even one Venerable of the Evil Sect who was seriously injured and died.

The Holy Sect united with the evil sect, and at the same time issued a wanted warrant in the rivers and lakes, and the wanted object was the True Demon Sect!

The True Demon Sect has never been in the limelight since the events in the South China Sea.

Even the mansion master of Bifeng Mansion was confirmed to be the deputy sect leader of the True Demon Sect.

But in the end, in the process of fleeing the two leaders of the Nanhai Clan, the lord of Bifeng Mansion suddenly disappeared, along with all the disciples of Bifeng Mansion.

And the old nest of Bifeng Mansion is also empty.

And the scene was not rushed at all, as if it had been prepared for a long time!

No one knew that someone had secretly contacted the True Demon Sect for a long time.

The defeat in the South China Sea. It was everyone's surprise, but in one person's expectation, it was not that he had expected this result for a long time, but that the destruction of the South China Sea had been pushed by him behind the water.

And the True Demon Sect as a whole has moved into a place that no one in the world can imagine at this time--- Luoshen Villa!

Because of the events in the South China Sea, there is a big difference between the current situation and what is about to happen and Liu Xin's restored memory.

Liu Xin couldn't judge the current position of the True Demon Sect through the contents in his memory.

And in the memories he recovered, there weren't actually too many memories of the True Demon Sect.

But he knew that a big event might happen next, so after the Holy Sect and the Evil Sect were attacked, Liu Xin took the initiative to ask Ying, he knew that the high-level of the Jinyi Guard, including Mi Yusong, knew his identity.

They all know that he is a disciple of the Holy Sect.

Therefore, in the process of taking the initiative to ask for help this time, Liu Xin still told Dai De'an some of the things he had seen in his memory in a secret way:

The rivers and lakes will be stirred up by a big invisible hand hidden behind the back.

There will be a big dispute between the good and the devil, or the entire rivers and lakes!

And the source of all this is eighteen exquisite weapons.

The bloody rain caused by these eighteen exquisite weapons will quickly sweep the entire rivers and lakes, of course, all this is just the scene that appears in Liu Xin's memory, and Liu Xin does not have much evidence to prove his memory now.

After all, in my memory, this incident happened a year later.

That is, in memory, the imperial court really controlled the situation in the South China Sea.

Before that, Liu Xin's memory did not have too many memories related to this incident.

Not to mention that the current situation is completely different from the scene in my memory.

During this period of rest in the imperial capital, he was also thinking back to what had appeared in his memory.

But in the end, nothing came of it.

So in this process, he checked all the abnormal phenomena that occurred in the rivers and lakes during this time, whether it was the rivers and lakes or the court, through the secret investigation team and the rights of the Jinyi Guard.

Among them, the ones that caught his attention the most were those quenching processes that appeared in the army of Shu that far exceeded the temperature that could be achieved by the current process.

What does the eighteen exquisite weapons mean?

Elite weapons are not something that can be obtained just by thinking, even if they are top masters, sometimes there is no way to guarantee that they can forge a superb weapon.

Many times, a master refining weapon is often able to obtain a superb weapon under certain extreme circumstances.

But if the existing process is taken to the next level. Perhaps the difficulty of forging a superb weapon will be greatly reduced.

In addition, in his memory, the Holy Sect had also obtained one of the eighteen exquisite weapons.

Liu Xin also picked up that exquisite weapon and observed.

Of course, in his memory, Liu Xin did not obtain the Dao Breaking Sword in advance like in reality.

At least Liu Xin in his memory had not obtained a superb weapon before seeing that exquisite weapon, so he did not find any abnormalities in his memory.

And it was only a long time before he himself had his own superb weapon.

It seems that after the appearance of these eighteen exquisite weapons, the number of exquisite weapons in the entire rivers and lakes, or the entire world, has increased!
