Chapter Forty-Eight: Xuanximen Song Enters Beijing and Is Sealed!
The next day.
In the Yanfu Palace, Qin Wuxian woke up from the bed, and a ray of golden light flashed from his eyes!
After a night of absorption, the remnants of the Nine Dragons Jade Seal have now absorbed about half.
And his cultivation also broke through the fifth layer of the foundation building period!
On the way to cultivation, the slower the cultivation becomes.
In Qin Wuji's prediction, the remaining half of the national fortune may only allow itself to break through to about the seventh layer of the foundation building period at most!
But!
It's barely enough!
Since then, in just thirteen days, he has broken through from the ninth layer of the Qi Refining Period to the seventh layer of the Foundation Building Period, which has far exceeded Qin Wuji's expectations!
If you only rely on the Great Xia National Fortune to assist in cultivation, I am afraid that it will take at least more than a month to reach the current state!
But because of the Nine Dragons Jade Seal, this time has been directly shortened by more than half!
Getting up from the dragon collapse, Qin Wuxian pushed the door and walked out, heading in the direction of the Imperial Palace.
Because of the absorption of the national fortune, Qin Wuxian deliberately canceled the morning dynasty for a day, and did not deal with even the folds.
Today is a good time to deal with some twists and turns in the morning.
Enter the Imperial Palace.
The civil and military officials were already waiting in the Imperial Palace, standing in two columns neatly.
Seeing Qin Wuxian coming, the civil and military officials saluted in unison: "Ministers see Your Majesty!"
Qin Wuxian walked straight up to the high platform, sat on the dragon chair, raised his hand slightly, and said, "Zhong Aiqing is flat!"
At this time, the accompanying guards next to him hurriedly shouted: "Something to start, nothing to retreat!"
As soon as the words fell, an official suddenly stood up.
"Your Majesty, the minister has something to play!"
......
An hour later.
The early dynasty came to an end.
Qin Wuxian's face was calm, and he listened carefully to the opinions of the hundred officials, until no one spoke again, and then he said softly: "Who else has the book to play?"
The civil and military officials looked at each other, and immediately said in unison: "The ministers are fine!"
Qin Wuxian nodded slightly, and was about to announce his retreat from the dynasty.
Suddenly.
A guard walked into the hall quickly: "Your Majesty, the Venerable Master of the Worship Hall asks to see you!"
"The Boundless Master?"
The civil and military officials looked at each other and discussed in a low voice.
After settling the matter of the Offering Hall five days ago, in order to stabilize people's hearts, Qin Wuxian did not hide it, and directly announced the matter.
Therefore, the civil and military officials also knew about the three peak worshippers of the god stage and the boundless master.
Some officials who are still impure in their minds, in addition to being shocked, have also retracted some small actions in private.
After all, the Boundless Master was a powerhouse of the Void Restoration Period who had already shocked Great Xia thousands of years ago.
Now that a thousand years have passed, who knows what state he has reached!
On top of the dragon chair.
Qin Wuxian was also slightly stunned, he came back so soon?
He immediately looked at the guard and said, "Xuan!"
"Yes!"
The guards took the order and left.
A moment later, a gray-robed figure walked into the hall, and it was the Boundless Master!
"Your Majesty!"
The Master of Boundless straightened his robe, and immediately saluted respectfully to the dragon chair with a solemn face.
This is the first time that the Boundless Master has gone to court after leaving the customs.
But seeing this scene, the civil and military officials were shocked!
The worship hall has always been a special force independent of the hundred officials, and it is only responsible to King Xia.
Not only does you not have to go to court, but your status is also above the hundred officials!
Even the successive kings of Xia, when facing the worship of the worship hall, will give him some face, although not respectful, but basically treat each other equally.
But now, this Boundless Venerable who has returned to the void period not only personally went to the pilgrimage to pay homage, but also had such a respectful attitude!
Looking at Qin Wuxian on the dragon chair again, the hearts of the hundred officials were all in a pang!
Many officials who think that "I can do it too" have also put away their contempt!
The previous few powerhouses of the defamiliarization god stage can be said to be the hole cards left by the first king to Qin Wuxi, so they obey Qin Wuxi's orders.
But this Boundless Master who returned to the void period, even the first king Qin Ji, could not forcibly order.
Originally, after hearing about what happened in the worship hall, the hundred officials thought that the Boundless Master was just still loyal to the Great Xia Dynasty, but now Great Xia is facing a crisis, so he appeared in the Xia Palace.
But I didn't expect it to be subdued by His Majesty!
Although His Majesty is young, his scheming and methods are simply unfathomable!
On the dragon chair, Qin Wuxian naturally didn't know what was going on in the hearts of the hundred officials.
He directly exposed the Boundless Master, although it also had the intention of deterring hundreds of officials, but he didn't expect this effect.
"Is the matter done?" looked at the Boundless Master, Qin Wuxian asked.
The Master of Boundless bowed slightly and said, "Your Majesty, the strength of the Ximen family has been discovered!"
"But there is still no news about Daji's whereabouts!"
Because Qin Wuxian had already revealed in front of the hundred officials that he wanted to do something to the family sect, the Master Wuya had no scruples and directly announced the news in this court.
But when the civil and military officials heard this, their hearts were shocked again!
Although they had long known that His Majesty wanted to make a move against the family sect, they didn't expect it to be so fast!
Two days ago, Li Xiaoyao was just sent to deal with the joint refusal of taxes by the forty-nine families of Great Xia, and now he has sent the Boundless Master to investigate the strength of the Ximen family!
Its purpose is self-evident!
On top of the dragon chair.
Qin Wuxian ignored the faces of the hundred officials, looked at the Boundless Master, and continued, "How?"
Wuya said: "It's not much different from what the minister guessed before, it's just that the genius disciple of the Ximen family, Ximen Qing, has already broken through the fifth layer of the Void Return!"
The officials were shocked again!
The name of Ximen Qing has been heard by everyone.
It is said that after less than a thousand years of practice, he reached the peak of the transformation of gods, and then continued to practice in retreat.
But unexpectedly, after reaching the peak of the Transformation God Realm, his cultivation speed not only did not slow down, but became faster!
In just three hundred years, not only has he broken through the realm of returning to the void, but he has even reached the fifth layer of the return to the void period!
Such qualifications are simply appalling!
On the dragon chair, Qin Wuxian also frowned slightly, this news was obviously a little unexpected to him.
"What about Daji's whereabouts?" Qin Wuxian continued to ask.
Although he was a little surprised by Ximen Qing's talent, compared to it, it was still Daji's business, which made him care more!
Wuya said: "As soon as the minister infiltrated the Ximen family, he was discovered, and then the minister directly asked the ninth ancestor of the Ximen family, Ximen Tailang, but he assured the minister that the Ximen family would never know about this matter!"
"What do you think?" Qin Wuxian frowned.
The Master of Boundless arched his hand and said: "According to the minister's opinion, Ximen Tailang should not be lying, because the Ximen family has never participated in the affairs of the imperial court, and there is no need for him to offend the imperial court at this time!"
"After that, the minister also investigated Yangzhou City, and I didn't hear the news that Daji appeared in Yangzhou City!"
"And in the past few days, there has been no special situation in Yangzhou City!"
The Boundless Master shook his head slightly.
"So Daji may not have had an accident in Yangzhou City, and there is no chance that this matter was done by the Ximen family!"
"But all this is just the minister's own speculation, and the suspicion of the Simon family cannot be ruled out!"
"After all, in the entire eastern region, the Ximen family is the strongest!"
Qin Wuxian nodded silently.
But the face is becoming more and more difficult to see.
Something happened to Daji as soon as she came to this realm, and she didn't even know how it happened!
The system summoned the characters that came out, and Qin Wuxian sensed it in the dark, and he was sure that Daji was still alive.
But where it is, it's impossible to know!
Exhaling softly, suppressing the irritability in his heart, Qin Wuxian looked at the Master of Boundless and said, "Do you think that the Ximen family is loyal to the imperial court now?"
As soon as these words came out, the civil and military officials were shocked.
All the family sects in Great Xia, although they are in the territory of Great Xia, no matter which family sect, they don't want to have anything to do with the imperial court.
Although he obeyed the laws of Great Xia, he did not participate in the political affairs of the imperial court, and basically held the concept and attitude that the well water did not violate the river water!
Among them, Simon Family is a typical representative!
But what does Your Majesty mean when he says this now?
Master Wuya exhaled lightly, he faintly guessed what Qin Wuxian meant, and arched his hand: "According to the minister's opinion, the Ximen family does not want to go against the imperial court, nor does it want to participate in the political affairs of the imperial court!"
Qin Wuxian nodded slightly, not surprised.
But after a moment of silence.
Suddenly, he looked at the ministers and said, "Spread my will, announce Ximen Song, the head of the Ximen family, and enter Beijing to be sealed!"
The ministers were slightly stunned, and then they were shocked!
"Your Majesty, by all means!"
The Ministry of Rites Shangshu came out and said anxiously: "The Ximen family is the strongest family in Daxia today, and it has a huge influence in Yangzhou City.
"Moreover, the Ximen family has never participated in the affairs of the imperial court, and the previous kings of Xia tried to win over the Ximen family, but they were all refused!"
"If Your Majesty wants to do something to the family, you can slowly try to do it, if you forcibly subdue it, the family will riot, and the consequences will be unimaginable!"
The Ministry of Rites Shangshu's face was pale.
He knew that Qin Wuxian's purpose was to subdue and rectify the Great Xia family, but he didn't expect that Qin Wuxian would plan to use such a decisive and barbaric method!
"Powerful?"
"The consequences of the family riot are unimaginable?"
Qin Wuxian slowly got up and looked at the Ministry of Rites: "I ask you, this Great Xia, whose Great Xia is it?"
The Ministry of Rites Shangshu stubbornly said: "It's Your Majesty's Great Xia!"
"In that case, why can't I command the family?"
Qin Wuxian looked indifferently and glanced at the ministers.
"Before I ascended the throne, the Dongfang family and the Nangong family openly rebelled!"
"Nowadays, from time to time in Great Xia, there are still disciples of the family sect who make rebellion and disrespect the laws of the imperial court, and among them, forty-nine family sects are even jointly refusing taxes and provoking the majesty of the imperial court!"
"The reason why Great Xia has become what it is today is largely due to the family sect!"
Qin Wuxian's face was cold, and at this moment, an infinite killing intent rose in his heart.
"Now, presumably some of you should have heard that the three dynasties of Cangming, Aogu and Murong have jointly deployed troops to surround my Great Xia border, and I am afraid that at the latest half a month, they will use troops against my Great Xia!"
"This battle is imperative!"
"When the time comes, if I win in Great Xia, the whole country will be safe!"
"But if my Great Xia is defeated, what awaits us will be the destruction of the whole country!"
"The kingdom is going to be destroyed, and you are still scrupling about this, scruples about that!"
"What about the family, and what about the sect?"
"Being in the territory of my Great Xia, protected by my Great Xia, that is my Great Xia people!"
"But not only are they not grateful to the imperial court, but when Great Xia is facing a crisis, they also commit rebellion and openly provoke the imperial court's law!"
Qin Wuxian's voice was indifferent, and his tone was extremely categorical!
"Before the Three Dynasties use troops against my Great Xia, I will inevitably subdue all the family sects of Great Xia!"
"Not only that, in the big battle half a month later, I will also let these family sects charge into battle and fight for my Great Xia!"
"Great Xia has sheltered them for so long, it's time for them to contribute to Great Xia!"
The civil and military officials were silent, and their faces were pale.
But looking at Qin Wuxian on the high platform with an indifferent face and a resolute tone, no one dared to refute it.
They knew something big was coming!
If you make a move on the Ximen family, and you can move your whole body, how can the rest of the family sects sit still and wait to be killed?
It means that the imperial court is very likely to face the crusade of all the family sects in Great Xia!
If it wins, it's okay to say, but if it fails, I'm afraid that before the invasion of the three dynasties, Great Xia will be destroyed!
"The Book of Rites!"
At this time, Qin Wuxian looked at the center of the main hall and bowed his head to the Ministry of Rites.
"Since you think that I can't do anything to the Ximen family, then go to the Ximen family to pass the decree, and you can go yourself!"
The body of the Ministry of Rites shuddered, and his face was as pale as paper.
His Majesty obviously wants to make a move against the Ximen family, and at this moment he went to the Ximen family to pass the decree, with the strength of the Ximen family, how could he obediently receive the decree, maybe he would directly unite with the rest of the family to rebel!
Whether he will come back alive or not is not certain!
But he understood that His Majesty was dissatisfied with his lack of priority just now, and specially punished him to go to deliver the decree.
The Ministry of Rites Shangshu was bitter in his heart, but he didn't dare to resist the decree, and bowed down and replied: "The minister's decree!"
The rest of the ministers were silent, and they didn't dare to come out, and they naturally understood what this will meant.
Whether the Ministry of Rites can come back alive depends on the creation!
On the dragon chair, Qin Wuxian's face was indifferent, and a cold glint flashed in his eyes!
He wanted to know if Ximen Song would obediently obey the order to enter Beijing and be sealed!
If he obeys the order and enters Beijing, he can justifiably subdue the Ximen family.
As the strongest forces in Daxia now except for the imperial court, they all belong to the imperial court, and then subdue the rest of the family sects, it will be much easier!
If he doesn't enter Beijing, he will not obey the order!
It is the capital crime of the Nine Clans!
When the time comes, you can do it to the Simon family!
In two days at the latest, he will be able to absorb the remnants of the national fortune in the Nine Dragons Jade Seal, and then the strength of Li Xiaoyao and the others will be able to reach the seventh layer of the Void Period!
And today's summon value is not far from the next summon!
When Li Xiaoyao destroys the forty-nine family sects that refuse to pay taxes, he should be able to summon the strong to come again!
Moreover, this action against these forty-nine family sects should also cause a lot of backlash!
Time is running out, I can't wait any longer!
It's time to take action against the Saga Sect!
The most important thing is to find out the whereabouts of Daji, whether it really has nothing to do with the Simon family!
Daji disappeared in Yangzhou City, Qin Wuxian didn't believe it, the Ximen family didn't know about it at all!
Three-digit return period?
Scold!
A sneer appeared on the corner of Qin Wuxian's mouth!
