Chapter 205: A New Storm Is Coming
Because of Shangguan Ba's order in advance, these people didn't have the heart to relent.
The existence of these demon cultivators in Martial Emperor City is to bring shame to Martial Emperor City.
At the same time, it is also a disaster for the Martial Emperor City!
If these people are not removed, they will be cleared even now.
The relationship between Emperor Wu City and the imperial court will also be very difficult to say for a long time to come.
Even after Shangguan Ba and His Majesty are all gone.
Lost the love between the two.
What should be the status of Emperor Wu City?
Therefore, they really hate these people who have joined to become demon cultivators.
By doing so, they not only harmed Emperor Wu City, but also harmed their future!
Liu Xin's Jinyi Guard's identity has never been so secure.
It's not just a paper order for Liu Xin from the emperor's will.
All the more so because in these few short days.
His position has come and gone, and I don't know how many times it has changed.
This rapid change just illustrates Liu Xin's strength and status.
If you don't have status or ability, the appointment will be over, and who will come to give you three changes a day.
is even more because he once again cracked a big case.
Even His Majesty the Emperor praised Liu Xin in the early morning of the new day.
If it weren't for the fact that Liu Xin was still young and lacked resources.
I am afraid that His Majesty will directly order the promotion of Liu Xin to the official commander of the Jinyi Guard.
Originally, the ministers of the court who were ready to abolish Liu Xin seemed to have found a candidate who could balance Emperor Wu City at this time.
It's Liu Xin.
So many ministers began to turn their guns and began to speak for Liu Xin.
and even take the initiative to befriend.
A lot of greetings were sent.
I don't know how many such prayers appear at the entrance of the Yamen in Beizhen, like snowflakes, on a big table at the door of the Yamen every day.
This was specially arranged by Liu Xin.
If you want to pay a prayer post, you can just put it on this table.
Liu Xin would draw two of them every day when he came to take a look.
So far, Liu Xin has not found that an official below the fourth grade dares to pay homage to him.
The snowflake-like prayers on the table were all of the four grades or more of the current court.
It is Siping who can be in the imperial capital, and he is a big man everywhere he goes out.
Plus the South Sea clan has been uprooted.
The current families of the Nanhai clan are all honest, and they cannot and will not jump out at this time.
They wish their presence was at a low point.
Therefore, now they dare to have a relationship with Liu Xinpan, and all the people who invite him to eat and drink are the real power faction of the current dynasty.
To be honest, Shangguan Dao's case Liu Xin handled not very refreshingly.
I know that there are people behind him.
But all the clues were cut off by the mastermind behind the scenes.
Liu Xin can guarantee that the last Gonggong Liu must know something.
But he was too decisive.
Afterwards, Mi Yusong personally performed an autopsy for him, and the last thing that this father-in-law Liu performed was a long-lost mastery in the rivers and lakes.
This peerless discipline can instantly improve one's cultivation.
But the sequelae are also very large.
After this Gonggong Liu casts that blow, the meridians of the whole person will flow backwards, and after the temporarily improved power is dissipated, the person will be extremely painful.
Therefore, he solved his surname very decisively.
But in a moment, although his end is also death, but the price is very painful.
Mi Yusong personally appointed a group of Jinyiwei and the old people inside the East Factory to investigate this case.
It's not that I don't believe Liu Xin, but this case makes Mi Yusong very sad.
Like Gonggong Wu, all of them were brought out by Mi Yusong and cultivated.
But it's not that Mi Yusong is older than them.
On the contrary, Mi Yusong and this group of old eunuchs entered the palace at almost the same time.
Mi Yusong originally entered the palace from the palace and became a eunuch.
And like Gonggong Wu, they also entered the palace during that period.
Originally, they were all miserable people.
If it weren't for the livelihood of the family, who would be willing to enter the palace.
And the rice rain pine is like a warm sunshine that suddenly falls on a dark day for them.
Piercing the gloom that envelops their world will illuminate their lives.
Not only did they gain the respect of others, but they were eunuchs. But no one goes out to fear them because of who they are.
All of them have a genuine respect for their great strength in their hearts.
In this world, if you don't have strength and no fists, then you're nothing.
This was once taught to them by Mi Yusong.
Wu Gonggong is grateful to Daide.
That father-in-law Liu is naturally not bad.
I heard that Father-in-law Liu has two sisters in his family, and he himself is the eldest son.
entered the palace to give the two sisters a good wedding dress.
And he himself has already given birth to children.
It's a pity that his wife died early, and he didn't have the courage to continue living.
His family was poor, and he lost his father and mother at an early age, so he had to take care of his two children and worry about the marriage of his two younger sisters.
He didn't want his sister to have a hard life as he did, so he gritted his teeth and entered the palace.
But after entering the palace, his two sisters-in-law were not only better but disliked by their husbands.
The two girls are not having a good time.
Gonggong Liu didn't know these things in the palace.
After learning about these situations, Mi Yusong made the decision for him.
The scenery made him shine on the lintel, and his two younger sisters were also valued in her husband's house.
Their husbands did not even dare to despise them in any way.
All of this was brought by Mi Yusong to Grandpa Liu.
And this is just one of many kinds.
Mi Yusong has done too much.
This also made Gonggong Wu and them extremely unable to understand why Gonggong Liu would betray him.
And after some investigation.
found that Liu's father-in-law's children have lived a very nourishing life over the years.
But his son got involved in gambling and went into debt.
As for whether this is the reason for Liu's father-in-law's betrayal, it is unknown.
But it is hard to imagine how such a secret family situation of Gonggong Liu was accurately discovered by the enemy.
Since the incident of Father-in-law Liu happened.
When Gonggong Wu and the others returned to the palace, it was a spontaneous self-interrogation.
Wu Gonggong alone took the initiative to bear the conscience of Buddhism.
Buddhism's Mind Inquiry Bureau is a secret technique of polygraphy.
Although for Buddhism, people in officialdom are still relatively taboo.
The reasons for this cannot be said.
But for them, the eunuchs.
They don't have any taboos.
You must know that the most commonly used method of discerning the hearts of others in the East Factory is the conscience of Buddhism.
And after a heart-to-heart game, the results showed that all the fathers-in-law involved in the operation this time had no problem.
Of course, it is also possible that they have some way to help them avoid asking questions.
But in general, this question is still relatively accurate.
After this case, Mi Yusong can't talk about whether he won or lost.
Because of a man like him, there is a traitor under his command.
And it was also the group of people who he thought were the most heartfelt, and a traitor appeared.
Naturally, it was a big blow to him.
Even the rivers and lakes are rumoring that Mi Yusong spit out a mouthful of blood angrily.
But in fact, whether this is the case, I saw the real chapter after just half a month.
Half a month later, the rivers and lakes suddenly set off a bloody storm.
And the one who manipulates all this behind the scenes is Mi Yusong!
The father-in-law of Dongchang set off a wide-ranging fight in the rivers and lakes.
The target of the fight is a group of underworld forces that control the underground casino casino.
Even with the Jianghu sects behind these underworld forces and the ministers who are even hidden behind them.
The matter also involved many ministers in the court.
This storm lasted for half a month.
There are as many as 300 criminals arrested in Dongchang alone.
The people in the rivers and lakes who were killed on the spot are even more familiar.
But half a month later, things took a turn for the better again.
A group of top masters led by Gonggong Wu suddenly appeared in Fengyang.
And here, another stronghold of the True Demon Sect was directly taken.
This place is also one of the eight auxiliary sects of Emperor Wu City.
Emperor Wu City is truly self-conscious this time.
Because in their sphere of influence, another stronghold of the True Demon Sect has appeared.
And it appeared under the nose of Shangguan Ba.
It's like a slap in the face of Shangguan Ba!
But this time, unlike before, the True Demon Sect only had a small number of strongholds here.
Moreover, the leader is the deputy leader of the True Demon Sect, and Wu Xianfeng, the auxiliary leader of Bifeng Mansion.
Finally, after a battle between top masters.
Gonggong Wu also died in this battle.
Wu Xianfeng obviously surpassed Shangguan Dao in terms of combat power.
He had even touched the Grandmaster-level standing power.
And Wu Gonggong and others also misestimated his strength.
At least underestimated.
Therefore, after paying a heavy price, Wu Xianfeng was finally dragged to Shangguan Ba to appear.
As soon as Shangguan Ba appeared, he took Wu Xianfeng as a bear ba.
Directly shattered the bone meridians all over his body and abolished it.
And from his teeth, he found three poisonous sacs that had sealed his throat with blood.
It is not yet known what Shangguan Ba's true combat power is, but at least his strength has made a huge breakthrough compared to before.
There is no doubt about that.
Shangguan Ba captured Wu Xianfeng alive.
It can be regarded as avenging Gonggong Wu and them.
When he learned the news, Liu Xin was very sad.
He knew that there had been a lot of uproar in the rivers and lakes during this time, and so many things were actually the movements that Gonggong Wu had deliberately stirred up when they were investigating the rest of the True Demon Sect.
They needed to prove for themselves that the True Demon Sect seemed to have almost collapsed at this point.
After all, Shangguan Dao, who claimed to be the sect leader, had already been punished.
The deputy sect leader, Wu Xianfeng, is now locked up in the dungeon of the Dongchang officials.
In the dungeon, only the most important prisoners were held in the dungeons of the Dongchang Yamen.
The location of the Dongchang Yamen dungeon is deep in the imperial city.
There's simply no way there's anyone here to save people out.
And above this dungeon is Mi Yusong's mansion.
This shows Mi Yusong's hatred for Wu Xianfeng.
In the past, this dungeon only imprisoned relatives of the emperor or members of the court.
What Wu Xianfeng experienced in the dungeon, Liu Xin didn't know.
But he knew that Wu Xianfeng must be worse than dead now.
The next time seems to pass quickly, and Dongchang and Jinyiwei are still methodically inspecting the whole world.
Liu Xin, as the commander of the Jinyi Guard, went out in person.
Because he knew that his ability was very beneficial for finding out the disciples of the True Demon Sect.
Therefore, he did not hesitate to work on the horse.
And he also assigned a lot of his own work.
Especially those young people are assigned to many important jobs.
Young people are motivated, even if they do something wrong, they will correct it in time.
Although there are more errors and omissions than before, the efficiency has also increased much compared to before.
On the whole, this group of young people, under the leadership of Liu Xin, did not let Jinyiwei lose his original role.
At least the current Jinyiwei is more positive than before.
And everywhere Liu Xin went, officials everywhere were also terrified.
I'm afraid I've done something I shouldn't have done.
For the next two years.
There was a great battle between the three tribes and the red-blooded prince in the Northern Barbarian Grassland.
But the Red Blood Prince has been unable to avoid the war.
He directly placed the five bronze sacrificial vessels on the border of his territory.
Once the three tribes were found to be attacking, the five bronze sacrificial vessels were burned.
The three major tribes also tried to feint a few times.
But they were all shocked back by this method.
The people of the three tribes will not allow the three tribes to have their faith destroyed by attacking the Red Blood Prince.
This is what we are doing.
And in the process.
Through his cooperation with the Holy Sect, the Red Blood Prince has opened a route for transporting supplies from the coastline.
The Red Blood Prince sent his best troops to attack an island nation on the coast of the East China Sea.
The small kingdom known as the land of the samurai was easily occupied by the Red Blood Prince.
It was turned into a dock, and all the bushido members of the kingdom were enslaved by the Red Blood Prince and became slaves on the dock.
Although the road is long, after all, it is safe and easy.
Since then, the life of the tribesmen under the Red Blood Prince has been getting better and better.
And the anger in the hearts of the people of the three major tribes had no place to vent, so they pointed the finger at Zhengyang.
However, under the leadership of the Duke of Qin.
Zhengyang's 100,000 iron cavalry actually took the initiative to attack.
With the three major tribes, both sides experienced a fierce battle on the steppe.
The battle lasted for half a year.
Finally, it was harvest season on the grassland, and the men of the three tribal armies had to return to their tribes.
Otherwise, they will not be able to harvest the barley and forage that are already ripe.
There is no way to prepare food for the winter for the old and weak women and children in their tribe.
If you miss it, you may not be able to survive this winter.
Therefore, the three tribes must take into account the morale of the army and the mood of the warriors.
So I had no choice but to retreat.
On the Zhengyang side, Qin Guogong seemed to have expected this a long time ago.
And this time, the reason why Qin Guogong took the initiative to attack at the border pass was because Wu Guogong took over his work guarding the border of Sichuan Province in Shu Guogong.
The first reason for the change of guard between the two of them was to let their soldiers go to the grassland to sharpen themselves.
At the same time, it is also to change their respective strategies, so as not to find some flaws in the Duke of Qin, a recognized general on the battlefield, in the long period of exploration.
Qin Guogong and Wu Guogong have very different fighting styles.
Therefore, as soon as the defense was changed, Wu Guogong's side also launched a feint attack on Sichuan Province.
This time, the feint attack was comprehensively advanced from all directions on the Bashu border.
The Duke of Shu no longer pretended, and directly sent troops to intercept it.
It can be regarded as officially tearing off the camouflage with the Zhengyang court.
And Wu Guogong's feint attack can be regarded as a temptation.
The two sides looked very busy with a burst of troops, but in fact there was no short-handed encounter.
Wu Guogong sent and penetrated deep into the border of Sichuan, Baili, where he built a fortress barracks.
Then, after the dust had settled, messengers were sent.
sent a letter from Emperor Xuyang.
The decree required Shu to pay the tax silver of Bashu and other places this year.
And the words in the letter were very heavy, and he almost scolded directly.
After all, the Duke of Shu is the brother-in-law of Emperor Xuyang.
The brother-in-law rebelled, and Emperor Xuyang's face was a little unbearable.
One of the duties of the state prince who is on duty in a province is to collect taxes.
And in the realms of each duke, half of the taxes collected were available for his own income.
But the Duke of Shu has not paid the tax and silver in the territory for several years.
This time's will also directly made the Duke of Shu and his subordinates nervous.
Because due to the recovery of the South China Sea two years ago, the grain of the Zhengyang court has been greatly replenished.
It can be said that the current Zhengyang has restored its military strength to a very, very victorious period.
Things have never been better in Zhengyang.
After two years of cultivation in the South China Sea, the tax on grain and grass paid more than doubled that of previous years.
The Zhengyang Imperial Court also vigorously began the conscription work.
A strong Southern Army was rebuilt and re-established with the army of the Central Plains.
And behind all this, it is a suggestion from Liu Xin.
One of the biggest suggestions Liu Xin has made in the past two years is this. The military region changed its defense system.
The Duke of Qin and the Duke of Wu were the last armies to implement this system.
Because there is no room for loss at the border.
Before that, the armies in the Central Plains, the East China Sea, the South China Sea and other places had frequently changed their defenses, and the morale of the troops had been improved.
Many stubborn diseases in the army were also discovered and resolved.
Everything is almost experimental, and it is the turn of Wu Guogong at the border pass and Qin Guogong who guards Bashu.
Even because he was trapped in the land of Bashu, the Duke of Shu knew very little about what was going on in the outside world.
At the same time, because there is the most accurate information of the covert investigation team.
This made it possible for Qin Guogong and Wu Guogong to change their guards.
Because the time required for the two to change guards must require a very precise supervision of the movements of the three major tribes on the grassland.
And through the past two years, the Holy Sect has gradually entered the pattern of the imperial court.
It's like Xiong Er's return from the grassland, which directly brought the sincerity of the red-blooded prince.
The fact that the red-blooded prince was able to take the island country in the East China Sea was also approved by the Zhengyang Imperial Court.
The steppe will find its way out at sea, find a chance to survive on its own.
In this way, there is no need to think about invading the Central Plains all day long.
In fact, the invasion of the Central Plains really didn't mean anything to the red-blooded prince.
The reason why many bear owners on the grassland want to conquer Zhengyang.
One of the main reasons is that the ancestors of the grassland once conquered Zhengyang and occupied it.
The golden bloodline has also been passed down from that era.
In the set of beliefs that the grassland people do not have immortal ancestors, they worship the god of the grassland.
And the ruler of the steppe compares himself to the heir of the god of the steppe, claiming to be of golden blood.
But it's actually a means of domination.
And the Red Blood Prince saw the essence of all this very clearly.
Therefore, he is not prepared to follow the old path.
Because it has been proven that it is not so easy to follow, and it is not necessarily the right path.
He wanted to forge a new path like his ancestors.
Could it be that his ancestors had a similar tradition before they were hailed as golden bloodlines?
Not really!
If you carefully study the history, you will find that the reason why the generation of grassland people with golden blood was able to occupy the entire Central Plains was because the Central Plains was in a very weak state at that time.
There are many countries in the Central Plains.
Years of wars between various countries led to a sharp drop in the number of people in the entire Central Plains by as much as half.
That's what gives the grassland that opportunity.
Moreover, at that time, the Central Plains people were not so wary and hateful of the grassland people.
And after that, the steppe people always wanted to conquer the Central Plains.
But the land of the Central Plains is fertile.
But the steppe people simply do not farm.
The power inherited from their bloodline allows them to raise only one cow and sheep.
Be a nomad.
And now the Red Blood Prince is doing something more in line with their habits.
They occupied that small country in the East China Sea.
It's nothing more than putting the past. The experience of animal husbandry was put on the enslavement of the people of these island countries in the East China Sea.
The people of the archipelago have always claimed to be the descendants of some emperor.
But the steppe people only believe in their steppe gods.
And they only allowed these short-looking people to worship the god of the steppe.
Two years have passed, and Xiong Er's cultivation has come one step closer.
The strength of the peak of the Zhongpin Dacheng Realm allowed him to rise rapidly in the Zhengyang Army.
It has even surpassed some of the senior generals from Emperor Wu City.
And he originally had a huge merit of his own.
The Red Blood Prince and the Zhengyang Imperial Court signed an agreement, and the two sides developed together.
With this military achievement, Xiong Eryi entered the imperial army and became a commander of the border army.
At the same time, the fifth uncle also had an improvement at the border pass.
He did not leave the closure with Wu Guogong.
Instead, he joined the army that came later to change the defense of Qin Guogong, and had a head-on fight with the Northern Barbarians.
In the process, he gained no small military merits.
Although it has not been promoted as much as Xiong Er, it has also become the key training object of Qin Guogong.
And because of the premonition, the Duke of Shu was about to be unbearable.
Because if we continue to develop like this, Zhengyang will not only not weaken, but will become stronger and stronger.
If the Duke of Shu wants to bring his Western master into Zhengyang, he must let Zhengyang become chaotic.
Let Zhengyang weaken.
And now he has made a secret agreement with the three major tribes.
And as Qin Guogong and Wu Guogong, who were in close contact with the three major tribes and the Duke of Shu, also felt this.
Therefore, the two sides will continue to change their defenses, and the army of Qin Guogong has already fought head-on with the three major tribes.
