When Su Cong returned to Zongmiao, Sima Yi's father and son had already been thrown off the torture rack, and the torture of the two did not end so simply.

The emperors brought them into a small room in the side courtyard of the temple along with the spiritual seats of their children, probably to separate them from the offering table.

However, Sima Yi's father and son had seen a big battle in the end, even if they were tortured so badly, they still didn't say a word of begging for mercy.

On the other side, the courtier of Da Zhou named Lai Junchen became more excited about such a torture object.

"Your Majesty, the ministers will prepare new torture instruments for these two people in two days, and keep them for the emperors to enjoy."

Flattery is his instinct to live, and he is both a trick and a kowtow, and he calls Su Chen's stammering a comfortable one, but as a person of later generations, he has always been wary of this kind of minister.

Looking at Lai Junchen, Su Chen just smiled at the corner of his mouth, raised his hand to let the other party get up, and casually encouraged: "Since you have come to my command, you will do things well, and you will enjoy endless glory and wealth, but in the past, you climbed the ministers of the court, don't use them here at will." ”

Sweet dates and sticks should be served together.

Although Lai Junchen has never read any books and does not know a few big characters, he is a shrewd person and is very good at observing words and feelings, so he naturally takes Su Chen's words to heart.

He nodded again and again: "Yes, Your Majesty, the minister must bear it in mind and never let down His Majesty." ”

"In this way, I will be relieved."

As he spoke, Su Chen waved his hand and summoned Xu Chu, who was guarding outside, and asked him to take this person away from the temple, and by the way, he also moved the two torture instruments outside together and placed them in the courtyard where Li Xuanba often practiced martial arts.

After doing all this, Su Chen looked at the emperors over there.

"Your Majesty, I have done what I promised you, let me go back and sleep for a while."

After returning from the sea, I worked non-stop in the Jongmyo for half a day, and I was really tired now. Most of the emperors over there were more satisfied at this time, and they brought Sima and his family over.

"Changsheng, you have to go to rest and hurry."

"That's it, we've got it this time."

"What the Sima family has done has left a legacy for thousands of years, so naturally it will not be easily let go."

While everyone was talking, Su Chen turned around and left the temple, Emperor Wen of Sui Yang Jian rarely spoke to him, but at this time he followed, the two walked under the eaves together, and the palace maids and eunuchs who passed only saw the Son of Heaven and the two central guards following behind, so they retreated to the side and waited for the Son of Heaven to pass.

"The widows have been pacified, the sea waves have been appeased, what are Changsheng's plans next?"

"Continue to recuperate, the Western Regions have been subdued, there is no need to go to the conquest again, in the future, send some scholars over every year, open the Huaxia Pavilion there, and set up the Western Regions Protectorate, use culture to erode step by step, and use soft means to incorporate the Western Regions into my Great Xia territory."

Su Chen was dressed in imperial clothes, heroic and burly, and although Emperor Wen of Sui Yang Jian was old, he was strong and only slightly thinner.

Seeing that when it came to political affairs, Dian Wei and Xu Chu were seven or eight steps behind, and by the way, they waved away the eunuchs and guards who wanted to come over.

Here, the two walked under the eaves, and the surroundings were quiet, and along the way, Emperor Wen of Sui Yang Jian added some suggestions from time to time according to what Su Chen had just said.

Almost out of the range of the temple, Su Chen stopped, "Your Majesty's words, I have some clarity in my heart, the matter of the Western Regions, then simmer slowly!" ”

"That's right, don't learn from my son, if Yang Yong succeeded to the throne back then, maybe he wouldn't have died in two lifetimes."

Yang Jian looked at this descendant of China from later generations, and couldn't help sighing, "My crown prince Yang Yong, although he is a scholar and a little sloppy in doing things, he will not be so anxious. Yang Guang...... has the talent to not lose to his brother, and his martial arts are not bad, but he is impatient to do things, thinking that he can do everything he wants to do in one go. ”

"Your Majesty, why bother with the past."

"How can I not be entangled, if it weren't for my father's dying advice, Ah Yi would not be in a hurry to complete these instructions."

Yang Jian let out a sigh, then smiled, and waved his hand at Su Chen: "Okay, the past is over, if I continue to talk about it, I will be more sentimental." ”

Standing under the corner of this palace eaves, the two chatted some more gossip, Yang Jian was called away by Li Shimin, and Su Chen returned to the palace.

Dian Wei stayed outside, so he asked the palace maid to come and serve, took off the heavy imperial clothes, took off the crown, and let the palace maid put his steps, he lay down on the dragon bed, and fell asleep tired in less than a few breaths.

When I woke up, it was already the next morning, and I had slept for more than five hours, and the sleep I had lost before the Japanese had regained it, and my spirit was much better.

After breakfast, walking in the flower garden in the back garden, while twisting his body to stretch his muscles and bones, he asked Dian Wei and Xu Chu, who also twisted their bodies and breathed in the breath, there were generals in the front palace who came over.

"Commander Liu didn't have any news, huh...... It doesn't seem to be! Dian Wei slept in the middle of the night, and after waking up, he had breakfast with Su Chen, and came here to rejuvenate his muscles.

Xu Chu also nodded, and said angrily at the other end: "It's really not." ”

"It's good if you don't, everyone has been floating at sea for a few months, and it's naturally good to rest more."

Su Chen finished a set of movements slowly, when his hands sank, a circle of dust blew on the ground around him, and after closing the momentum, he took the silk handkerchief handed by the palace maid and wiped his forehead: "Go and spread my will, let Lu Yang order count a batch of grain, wine and meat, and send it to the barracks."

By the way, 500,000 yuan will be allocated from my internal affairs treasury and distributed to the soldiers, and the soldiers who died in battle will be counted separately. ”

Hundreds of thousands of guan is not a small amount, but for Su Chen, this money is also ashes in the treasury, it is better to reward it, let the soldiers use it for expenses, and it can also circulate in the market to promote the prosperity of the market.

After all, when it comes to him, especially in later generations, his desire for this world is actually relatively low, and the fun and good-looking ones are basically uneyed.

"This is the reward I promised to the soldiers, and I cannot be untrustworthy."

The guards who gave the order rushed away, Su Chen handed back the silk handkerchief, and another guard stepped forward to wait on the side.

"Then pass on my will to the Taiwei, and the great victory of the Japanese Invaders, must be spread throughout the Western Regions and the South Seas, and promote the power of Great Xia, there are some things that must be done."

After doing all this, Su Chen did not continue to practice martial arts to stay in Luyang for a while, just to rest, and would not delay time here, and when he returned to Yanjing, he still needed to take over the government from Xun Yu and Guo Jia.

With Xun Yu, Wang Zuozhicai, sitting in the rear, and Guo Jiacong responding, this is the biggest reliance for Su Chen to dare to conquer in person.

Not long after, the Taiwei Mansion received an edict one after another, Jia Xu already knew Su Chen's thoughts yesterday, and when the edict came again this morning, he was already working on it, and everything related to the army had to go through his hands.

Reorganize the speech and write down the proclamation.

The news of the bloody massacre of the Japanese was finally confirmed by the government on this day, and after the document of the announcement was printed here in Su Chen, it immediately began to spread throughout the Central Plains and the north and south of the river.

Whether it is the land of the swallow on the calm water, or the hot desert in the Western Regions on the grassland, when I heard this news, it was already late August.

The battle that took place on the sea showed that the Xia army was not only invincible in land warfare, but also as terrifying as a dragon at sea.

Iron Buddha looked at the news in his hand and couldn't help but sigh at the grand scene of the Xia Kingdom. At the same time, Zheng He, who was far away in the north, was ordered to go south.

A fleet was formed to patrol the South Seas in Lin County, and on August 27, the Youyan army, which had slaughtered the remaining Japanese people, returned from the sea.

Along with the huge meteorite, the local people saw the behemoth carried by two large ships side by side, and they were shocked on the spot.

They could never have imagined that it was really those storytellers who destroyed the island, and that the demise of the Japanese people was really related to this meteorite.

Su Chen, who heard the news, waited in the palace early, and in the afternoon, dozens of carriages carrying meteorites were placed outside the east city gate.
