When the news of the Praetorian Guard came, the emperor, the marshal, Feng Xuanzhang, and the old marquis were all there. The moment they saw the news, they were really shocked, what Tang Tian's promotion to the eighth layer of Yuan Qi meant was self-evident, it was definitely the number one master in the world. How beautiful Luo Heng was in the Orc Alliance at the beginning, they still remember it.

However, this is not the end, and then look down, several people's hearts suddenly set off a storm, the twenty-sixth-level demon beast, one blow made the old man surrender and admit defeat, this ......

They all know that Jiang Xingchen has the ability to domesticate demon beasts, and the bees led by Xingchen, the wind wolf, and the King Kong ants can all explain the problem. But the twenty-sixth-level demon beast, even in the vast depths, is rampant, how can it be commanded by humans.

"The Great Emperor......" Marshal had a solemn face and said in a deep voice: "You must not forcibly ask Jiang Xingchen, you have to talk to him well......"

The old marquis nodded and said, "I'm afraid this kid has long expected the impact of the invention of the grenade, and this is a deliberate show of his strength...... Twenty-six level demon beasts, how many backhands does this kid have, the previous King Kong ants have never appeared, and suddenly they appeared. This twenty-sixth-level demon beast has been hiding beside her sister, and we even sent someone to protect her at the beginning......"

Feng Xuanzhang also continued: "The Great Emperor must be cautious, with Jiang Xingchen's unruly temperament, once restrictions are imposed on him, he will turn against the empire if he can't do it...... Don't worry, I dare to guarantee that Jiang Xingchen has absolutely no ambitions, and all his energy is on territory construction!"

The marshal said: "Yes, Emperor, this kid is already a second-class earl." There were up to 3,000 private soldiers, but he never recruited them, and the only 200 private soldiers were all used as security officers. All belongings are used for construction. ”

The old marquis followed: "I heard from the Duan family that the initial investment in the construction blueprint he planned was as high as 200 million citrine coins, which is not counting the road construction ......."

The three of you, every word you say to me are all words to persuade the emperor not to forcibly restrict Jiang Xingchen. If they only put forward such opinions before, now they are insisting.

The Emperor's face was cloudy, from his heart. He really wanted to control Jiang Xingchen in the imperial capital. The grenade was too lethal, and he had to make sure he was completely in control. But now......

"Okay, you don't have to say anything, I know what to do!" the Emperor took a deep breath. Waving his hand for the marshal to leave.

The three marshals glanced at each other and opened their mouths with some concern, but the old marquis shook his head, and in the end no one spoke. Got up and left the palace hall.

"Old Marquis. Do you think the emperor will go his own way?" As soon as he left the palace hall, Feng Xuanzhang immediately asked.

"No, the Great Emperor can tell the difference, Tang Tian's old immortal is too closely related to Jiang Xingchen, and he has been promoted to the eighth layer of vitality, plus the invincible twenty-sixth-level demon beast in the world, no one can keep Jiang Xingchen...... Once you force him to another country, the loss of the empire will be too great!"

The marshal bowed his head and said, "What the old marquis said is right. Even if he felt uncomfortable, the emperor would not force Jiang Xingchen away......"

The three of them talked. While gradually moving away. After their figures disappeared, four pitch-black shadows appeared on both sides of the main hall, which were the four Shadow Shadows who had been ordered to protect Mei'er in the first place.

The four of them looked at each other, and they all saw the horror in each other's eyes.

After the people of Xuanyuan Heavenly Sect were killed, the Moon Shadow Kingdom strengthened its protection of Mei'er, and they retreated. It's just that they have always wondered about one thing, that is, how did the seven people from Xuanyuan Heavenly Sect die, each with a blood hole in their foreheads, and the person who shot it didn't even see a shadow.

Now that they finally know the answer, they can't help but be a little afraid, they say that they are protecting Jiang Mei'er, but in fact, they also mean surveillance. In case the Great Emperor ordered them to sue Jiang Mei'er, the result would be ...... Even they have an extra blood hole in their foreheads.

After a long while, the four of them exhaled a long breath and re-disappeared into the shadows......

At this time, in the main hall, the emperor was still frowning and sitting on the chair with a solemn face.

The grenade matter is nothing to negotiate, Jiang Xingchen has no ambition, and he knows that he will not let the weapons leak out...... What he felt awkward in his heart was that the benchmark he had set was not under his control.

His mood at the moment was very complicated, Jiang Xingchen's role was undoubted, without him, the empire would definitely not be able to replace the position of Xuanyuan Heavenly Sect. But he can't completely control such a person, so he can't do anything in vain.

"Father!" a call came to his ears, interrupting the Emperor's musings.

"Hmm!" The Emperor raised his head, saw the second prince standing bowed, frowned and asked, "What are you doing here, what's the matter?"

The second prince hesitated slightly, bowed down and said: "Although our empire is the general trend of the world now, the Eight-Nation Alliance still poses a huge threat to us, even the Xuanyuan Heavenly Sect, which has suffered a great loss in strength, has the possibility of making a ......comeback!

The Great Emperor waved his hand suddenly, interrupted the second prince, and asked in a deep voice, "Who asked you to come?"

"Uh!" The second prince was stunned for a moment, just lowered his head, and his tone flickered: "Yes...... Be... It's Erchen himself who thinks so!"

"Hmph!" the emperor sneered and said, "Yourself! Is it you supposed to be in charge of the government, you don't know the rules, your eldest brother is the crown prince, and there is no room for meddle in this matter...... Produce as many grenades as possible, doesn't this mean that I want to force Jiang Xingchen...... What good do you do for the old-fashioned and centrists?"

"No... No, Erchen didn't ......" The second prince hurriedly waved his hand, looking panicked.

"Okay, shut up!" the emperor slapped the table hard, causing the second prince to tremble.

Seeing the appearance of the second prince, the emperor's heart softened, and his voice softened: "In the future, if someone else asks for you, you will do it for others...... Do you think I don't want to control Jiang Xingchen, but now that Tang Tian has been promoted to the eighth layer of Yuan Qi, and there is a twenty-sixth level demon beast, it is impossible to keep him in the imperial capital!"

After a pause, the Emperor continued: "His territory is bees and Vajra ants again. It's a wind wolf again, and his defensive strength is amazing, and you can't even surround him if you mobilize a large army...... And once he is completely against us. It will be voted for in other countries, and our losses will be too great!"

The second prince's eyes widened, with an incredulous expression, and he muttered, "Tang Tian has been promoted to the eighth layer of vitality, and there are still twenty ...... Twenty-sixth level demon beast?"

After a long time, the second prince swallowed his saliva and said softly: "Father." The Tang family is loyal to the empire, Tang Chuxue is the commander of the first legion, Tang Tian shouldn't do such a thing, right?"

"Even if you can't do it. But he won't intervene to stop him, his relationship with Jiang Xingchen is too close. And the others couldn't stop the twenty-sixth-level demon beasts either...... Not to mention, Jiang Xingchen also has a level 20 wind wolf by his side..."

Explain those. The Emperor sighed. Although he was explaining to the second prince just now, it was also a process for him to convince himself!

"Okay, you go down, if there is such a thing in the future, you will not be spared!" the emperor reprimanded and waved his sleeves.

"Yes, yes, thank you for your father's teachings, my son remembered!" the second prince nodded hurriedly. Turned around and hurried out of the main hall.

Then the Emperor stood up. Commanded loudly: "Someone, send an order to the marshal, and quickly go and negotiate with Jiang Xingchen about the grenade." Ask Jiang Xingchen not to pass on the weapon and hand over 20,000 grenades every year!"

A man in black ran in to receive his orders and quickly left.

Then the Great Emperor commanded: "Decree the aristocratic management department, Jiang Xingchen has made great contributions to the war of the Moon Shadow Kingdom, and the design of a super weapon grenade is the key to annihilating most of the strength of Xuanyuan Heavenly Sect." Therefore, Jiang Xingchen was promoted to a first-class earl, and the ownership of the surrounding hills of Xingchen Ling was assigned to Xingchen Ling!"

Tong Guò explained to the second prince, and the emperor finally figured it out. Jiang Xingchen, this kid is not controlled, he doesn't want to be free, just let him be free, anyway, he has no ambitions, and the grenade will not be passed on, and everything invented will have a share of the empire, so why not control him.

After communicating this, the emperor's mood finally relaxed, and he smiled: "Boy, aren't you unruly, I'll give you a task of 20,000 first, and I'll exhaust you!"

Although the feelings have calmed down and the mentality has relaxed, it does not mean that the emperor has no grievances. If it weren't for the high cost of grenades, 20,000 would be a year's military expenses for a legion, and he really wanted to equip the whole army with ......

When the emperor gave the order, the second prince also had a smug smile on his face, don't look at being reprimanded by the emperor, but he was in a very good mood. In this case, he had shown that he could speak for them in the inner courtyard of the palace, and if the people of the two factions were smart, they would definitely move closer to him.

"Hehe! My father thought that the two factions were looking for me, but in fact, I really went by myself!" Thinking of the smugness, the second prince couldn't help but laugh.

"Second brother!" Just as the second prince was laughing, without warning, a loud shout suddenly sounded in his ears.

"Mom~" This voice was too sudden, the second prince was so frightened that he trembled, his heartbeat instantly exceeded two hundred, and his mother shouted out in his mouth.

"Haha, second brother, I saw you coming out of the main hall, and I also heard that you were being trained......" The sixth princess jumped in front of the second prince at once.

The second prince was pale and frightened, and after being stunned for a while, he became furious and was about to get angry when he pointed at the sixth princess.

However, the sixth princess's next words made his anger extinguish at once.

"There must be a reason why I was so happy to be reprimanded by my father...... I'm going to sue my father!" the sixth princess smiled, turned her head and left.

"Hey~ little sister, don't ......" The expression of the second prince immediately changed, and he hurriedly grabbed the arm of the sixth princess and squeezed out a smiling expression. If his father analyzes that he has the intention of forming a party for personal gain, he will be dead.

"Second brother, don't you want me to sue my father?" the sixth princess stopped, turned her head and asked with a grin, the smile similar to that of a little fox.

"Hmm!" the second prince nodded hurriedly.

"Hehe, second brother, don't say I forced you...... Let's go out of town, I want to go sledding again!"

"Little sister, please let it go~" The second prince howled, and the little face that was squeezed out collapsed instantly, and the water vapor in his eyes condensed. Then he cried...... (To be continued......)
