At the same time as Nanping Nanling and the East China Sea, Wang Ruoli rectified military discipline, developed people's livelihood, completely built the four western provinces into an iron plate, and digested the fresh blood of those families and sects that were integrated, making the military stronger and stronger, and the overall power soared several times.

Moreover, through the continuous penetration of the three provinces of Gyeonggi, especially after Bai Yao and Yang Pu led the troops to settle in the left and right provinces of Gyeonggi respectively, with Wang Ruoli's army of the Immortal Dynasty, the left and right provinces of Gyeonggi were smoothly included in the actual control of Wang Ruoli.

In addition, with the gradual stabilization of state and highway affairs, as well as years of secret investigations, Wang Ruoli boldly appointed Huang Jinyu, Guo Jiao, and Liu Qiantiao to serve as the acting governors of Xishu Road, Xichuan Road, and Xilong Road respectively. As for Lu Qiu Mingda, who has been in charge of the three affairs, he stayed by Wang Ruoli's side again.

Jingzhou City, away from the palace.

Leng Shuanghua knelt under the hall with a resolute face.

"Leng Shuanghua, have you really thought about it?" Wang Ruoli looked at Leng Shuanghua below, a little hesitant.

"As an old member of the Jingyang Wang family, Shuanghua has sworn to follow the prince for the rest of his life since he was rescued by the prince, and he is loyal to him, and he implores the prince to give him the Dengxian grass......" Leng Shuanghua raised his eyes and pleaded sincerely.

"This king has never doubted your loyalty, but your cultivation is low, and it is difficult to suppress and absorb the immortal power of Dengxian grass rashly, and I am afraid that seventy percent of you may explode and die. Wang Ruoli interrupted softly, "Since the change of Weiyin Mountain back then, there are not many old people left in the Jingyang Wang family, and this king doesn't want you to take such a risk." ”

"Thank you for your understanding. Leng Shuanghua's eyes showed a sense of persistence, "Over the years, the prince has taken care of the old people of the Jingyang Wang family and given a lot of cultivation resources, but unfortunately my qualifications are limited, and I have always been slow to enter the realm, so I can reach the calcination period, and I am really ashamed of the cultivation of the prince." ”

In fact, with Leng Shuanghua's cultivation and entering the realm, he can already be regarded as an outstanding genius in the land of Jingxiang, but the goal in Leng Shuanghua's heart is to follow in the footsteps of Wang Ruoli, so a little comparison with Wang Ruoli, who has already stepped into the realm of the Spirit King, is naturally very different. With her current level of strength, for Wang Ruoli, she is not of much help at all, and she is not even as good as an ordinary tooth lieutenant in the Immortal Dynasty army.

This time, after several years of careful cultivation, Wang Ruoli has harvested a lot of spirit grass magic fruits planted in the red maple space, and plans to take advantage of the current situation to be a little calmer, and take it out to cultivate his subordinates, in order to be able to produce more spirit realm powerhouses in the future, after all, compared to joining halfway, these spirit realm powerhouses cultivated by themselves must be more loyal.

In the red maple space, although the water citron has never had any reaction, what is particularly gratifying is that three Dengxian grasses have been harvested, and it seems that the soil inside is very suitable for planting Dengxian grass. With these three Dengxian grasses, Wang Ruoli planned to choose one person from each of the three realms to take Dengxian grass among the spiritual realm powerhouses under his subordinates, Danyuan Sanhua, and Jitian Sandao, which was not only a cultivation method for his subordinates, but also an experiment on the scope of the effectiveness of Dengxian grass.

Spiritual realm

Among the strong, Xiao Baohuang was the first to follow and has always been loyal, so Wang Ruoli's first thought was him. In the Danyuan Sanhua, the choice is Luqiu Mingda, after all, Luqiu Mingda saddles before and after the horse, and works tirelessly to stabilize the four western roads, making outstanding contributions.

As for the three paths of the Kida, although the realm is the lowest and the danger is the greatest, if you can withstand and absorb the immortal power of the Ascending Immortal Grass, you will definitely get the most benefits. Wang Ruoli's original candidate in his heart was Xu Nafu, the captain of his own guard, but after Leng Shuanghua learned the news of Dengxian Grass from Yu Lao, he took the initiative to come over and ask for help. Although the news of this Dengxian Grass is top secret, Wang Ruoli did not hide it from Yu Lao, who was with him.

"Why are you so hard?" Wang Ruoli understood Leng Shuanghua's mood, and under her seemingly docile appearance, there was an unshakable stubbornness.

"Shuanghua doesn't ask for anything else, but wants to follow the prince for the rest of his life and be the sword in the prince's hand. The corners of Leng Shuanghua's eyes were moist, and he kowtowed, "However, now I am not qualified to become a sword in the hands of the prince at all, and whenever I think of this, I always fidget. I know that Dengxian Grass is the best immortal grass that is hard to find in the world, and I can't afford to waste it, even if I lose tens of thousands of lives like mine, I can't ...... it."

"Immortal grass is not immortal grass, it is all in personnel, if it is useless immortal grass, it is no different from weeds. Wang Ruoli looked calm, held up Leng Shuanghua with one hand, patted her shoulder, and sighed, "This choice, I hope you don't let this king down, and don't let yourself regret it." ”

"Thank you, Lord Wang, Shuanghua has no regrets even if she dies!" Leng Shuanghua couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when she heard that Wang Ruoli finally agreed, a light smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she looked up at Wang Ruoli.

Leng Shuanghua realized that he had never looked at Wang Ruoli like this all along, he didn't have it before, and then he didn't dare, until now he didn't know where to draw this courage, so he dared to stare like this, staring at Wang Ruoli's handsome face.

Great Song Dynasty, the imperial city of Jiankang, Chongwen Palace.

"Old Fan, you have been a privy envoy for many years, and I have never doubted your loyalty to my Great Song Dynasty, and I also believe that you are the only one who thinks about Song Chao. Emperor Liu Zijun of the Song Dynasty had a sad face, looked at Fan Wenzheng with a solemn face below, and said earnestly, "Now that the king is becoming bigger, it is difficult to curb it, what should I do?"

"Your Majesty, the matter of leaving the king still needs to be considered in the long run. Fan Wenzheng frowned slightly, and thought about it, "Although the military power of the king is currently monopolized, but to put it in detail, the reason why my Great Song Dynasty was able to resist the Jin Dynasty in the west, the Chu Dynasty in the south, and the Qi Dynasty in the north was mostly due to the great military power of the king. ”

"Wang Ruoli's heart is known to passers-by. Liu Zijun flashed a trace of hatred on his face, but he covered up the past well, "Looking at the present, from the four western provinces of Wang Neizhang, the two kings of Baoqing and Linzhang are connected to the outside, and gradually control the three provinces of Gyeonggi, plus after Nanping Nanling and the East China Sea, his personal reputation in the Shenyuan Continent can be described as unparalleled in the world." Fan Lao, do you think that there is such a character in my Great Song Dynasty, is it joy rather than worry?"

"The emperor forgives the sin, and the old minister did advocate supporting the king, one side

The face was used to balance the three kings who led the army, and on the one hand, it was used to resist the invasion of foreign dynasties. However, he never thought that the expansion of the power of the king would be as big as ever. Fan Wenzheng hurriedly knelt down and confessed his mistake, "Everything is the fault of the old minister." ”

"Old Fan, I'm not blaming you for your original proposition, even if there is no acquiescence from the imperial court, King Liwang can also rise quickly. Liu Zijun shook his head slightly, "What I'm thinking about is, what should I do in the future?"

In fact, in Liu Zijun's heart, he neither wants to cover the sky with his own hands from the king, nor does he want his power to collapse, and what he most wants to see is that the power of the king is weakened and can be used by the Song court without threatening the imperial power. Otherwise, if the current Song Dynasty has no king, I am afraid that it will not be far from extinction.

Monarchy, military power, and the monarch wants to do the things of the scales, which is like walking on a tightrope, on the one hand, worrying that his subordinates are not capable enough and cannot meet their expectations, and on the other hand, they are worried that their subordinates are too capable and will succeed in building a high lord.

The old minister suggested that it should be slowly drawn. Fan Wenzheng's eyebrows were suffocated, and he could only persuade gently.

"Slowly, slowly...... How many years will it take to slowly figure out?" Liu Zijun listened to the anger for a while, and couldn't help but let out, "Forget it, Fan Lao is also tired today, let's go back and rest first!"

"The old minister retired. Fan Wenzheng knew that he could not make any effective suggestions, so he had to confess and leave the temple.

"It's all some foolish stuff that doesn't have enough success and more than fails. Liu Zijun watched Fan Wenzheng's back out of Chongwen Palace, holding a teacup, and couldn't help but spit out, and his face instantly darkened.

At this time, a young man slowly walked out from behind the hall, with a mocking smile on his face, and smiled a little ill-willedly, it was the eldest son of the King of Huaiyin of the Qi Dynasty, Tian Wenzi.

"Foreign Minister Tian Wenzi, meet the emperor of the Song Dynasty. Tian Wenzi bowed, looking a little casual.

"No courtesy. Regarding Tian Wenzi's neglect, Liu Zijun saw it in his eyes and buried it in his heart, but his face was silent, "Tian Qing deliberately came all the way to my Great Song Dynasty, thinking that Qi Huanjun and Ling Zun are going to take action?"

"Hehe, the speed of the rise of the king is terrifying, and it seems to have become the target of the major immortal dynasties in the Shenyuan Continent. The corners of Tian Wenzi's mouth twitched slightly, and he said calmly, "The foreign minister understands what Emperor Song is worried about, and he came here today to relieve Emperor Song of this big trouble." ”

"Since it is a big problem, how can it be so easy to solve?" Liu Zijun asked suspiciously, "This is a big matter, and we need to be extra cautious, don't steal chickens and rice." ”

"Emperor Song's concern is not unreasonable, take the past few years as an example, Liwang first defeated the Chu Dynasty, forced the Jin Dynasty to retreat, and then Nanping Nanling, and conquered the East China Sea, even the super sect Qingyi Sect was removed from the Shenyuan Continent by Liwang, and if you want to deal with Liwang, you really have to be cautious. Tian Wenzi said mysteriously, "However, a mountain is higher than a mountain, no matter how strong the king is, the territory in his hands is limited after all, I don't know what Emperor Song thinks of the 'Six Dynasties'?"

"What?" Liu Zijun heard this, Huo Di stood up, staring straight at Tian Wenzi with both eyes, his face full of shock.
