As I spoke, my hands seemed to be waiting for an opportunity to move. I was so frightened that the Southern Emperor quickly shouted: "Stop! Everyone, stand down! Stand back! He is a disciple of the Immortal! He is not an assassin! Stand back to me!"
A group of guards looked at each other, their faces turned pale with fright, so they quickly retreated. Then I smiled and said, "It seems that the emperor still wants peace in the world more than death. Then the problem will be easier to solve."
The emperor is about forty-five or six years old. At this age, it is inevitable that he will enter the stage where he is lustful and powerless. In addition, excessive drinking and sex, and lack of feasting can no longer arouse his male instinct, so it is not surprising that he is debauched.
"What on earth do you want to do!? How can this emperor want to die?" The emperor saw that I had no respect for him at all, and actually dared to tease him. He also knew that I was not an ordinary person.
"Haha, if you don't want to die, you are still showing off your prostitution in the daytime, but you don't know that the front line is already full of troops and approaching step by step?" I said coldly.
"You are just a descendant of an expert from outside the world. You only know the surface of things in the world, but you don't know what's going on inside? I have sent strong generals to wipe out all the enemies in the hinterland in a few days!" The emperor said harshly.
"Then you feel relieved and take the opportunity to relax here? Tsk tsk, I say emperor, you are so big-hearted. No wonder Beibang has defected to Beiguo. If you continue to be so dissolute, what is the difference between this and suicide?
The world will soon belong to the Northern Kingdom, and you will soon become the king of the subjugated country." I smiled.
The emperor wanted to say something, but suddenly said anxiously: "Beibang! Yes! That accent! You are from Beibang!"
"It was because Beibang was given to the Northern Kingdom by a group of ignorant women and children that I am standing here, or is it that Beibang was originally a vassal of the Northern Kingdom, and now it is just returned to its original owner? No, if so, I should help the Emperor of the Northern Kingdom
, I will kill you now, what nonsense are you talking to?" I narrowed my eyes and suddenly smiled.
"Slow! Wait! Beibang has been part of our southern country since ancient times! How can it be the territory of the northern country!? Master Immortal, don't let yourself be like this!" The emperor felt like crying.
"Oh, since it is the territory of the Southern Kingdom, how come it has been occupied by the Northern Kingdom? Now the people are like being in a melting pot, and you are still so happy. Why are you so complacent here?" I asked with a sneer.
"No! No! Don't blame the Immortal Master first, and I don't want to do this! But with the power gone, I can't do anything! If it were before, how could I let the Northern Kingdom occupy even a cent of the land!? Now it's reduced to this
At this point, even if I am not willing to give in, I am not forced to the point where I have no choice!" The emperor looked aggrieved and began to express his bitterness to me.
"Oh? The power has fallen by the wayside? You are also the emperor after all. Is there anyone who dares to narrow the emperor and order the princes?" I sneered.
"The Emperor Xiao is ordering the princes? Yes! Yes! It is the Emperor Xiao who is ordering the princes! What else can I do except enjoy myself here?!" the emperor wailed.
"Oh? Then tell me, who took away your power?" I asked.
"It's the Queen Mother! The Queen Mother interferes in politics, her relatives are in power, and she has even established herself as the crown prince. If I dare to resist, I will definitely end up deposing the emperor. What can I do? Do you know what I have experienced in more than ten years? I, the Emperor.
I also want to make the Southern Kingdom stronger! But now all struggles are in vain, and there is nothing I can do, there is nothing I can do!" the emperor said quickly.
"Haha, you have it, but you haven't met the right person yet. Am I not the disciple of the Immortal family who will help you make a comeback? We are naked, and I won't talk nonsense to you. You show your sincerity, and I will
Produce enough achievements for you to return to the center of power. When the time comes, you will wipe out all your relatives and make the whole world stronger than the Southern Kingdom. You may even annex the Northern Kingdom and achieve world hegemony!" I encouraged.
"Really...really?" The emperor's eyes flashed with light, but after all, this statement was too illusory. Even if I claimed to be a disciple of the immortal, he did not believe it too much.
"Haha, if you believe me, it's true. But if you don't believe me, I'm afraid I can only wait for your relatives to swallow up your throne and make you a deposed emperor. And do you have any other choice now?" I
Said with a sneer.
"But even though I believe in you, I can't give you the ability to make a comeback! Now that the military power is in the hands of my relatives, I can't even mobilize the army in the imperial city. Now I feel like I'm sitting on pins and needles, restless. What can I do?" the emperor said on his face.
It's all sad.
"The imperial army cannot be controlled. You, the emperor, are too weak. Can foreign troops be mobilized?" I asked again.
"The emperor has a few close friends, but after the emperor has been completely isolated in the past few years, in order to have a firm grasp of the government, the relatives have now dispatched them to either desolate places or places with strong folk customs, where the soldiers are either invincible
They are too lazy to be tamed by the military threat, or they are disobedient and difficult to use. Otherwise, with the help of these old commanders left by the late emperor to guard the border, how could the Northern Kingdom be allowed to invade! These relatives only have power in their eyes, and do not care about the rights of the country.
Lost!" the emperor said angrily.
"I see, then are you willing to give me a formal canonization, or give me an edict to recruit troops on the spot, dispatch local soldiers, and do things conveniently? If there are these things, I have many ways to make them listen to my orders." I smiled.
"I can give you an edict, but the edict is of no use. The leaders of various states refuse to accept it. It is not even as useful as a word from my relatives..." the emperor sighed.
"If you don't obey the emperor's order, I will kill him with an edict. Is there anyone who doesn't obey orders at that time? What I want is just to have a good reputation as a teacher. Why should I be afraid of other things?" I sneered.
The emperor's eyes widened, and then he clapped his hands and said, "That's true. You are a disciple of the Xian family. You must have a way to control them. Then I will write an edict to you?"
The emperor seemed to have the idea of treating a dead horse as a living doctor. He quickly wrote an edict and gave me the emperor's token. Although there was no longer something like a tiger charm for leading troops, it proved that I was the emperor's emissary.
no problem.
Of course I plundered everything I could. Even though the emperor had seized power and couldn't do anything, in fact he still had some private wealth. I took a considerable amount of treasure, as well as a lot of official appointments, resumes, and maps.
After waiting, I shrank out of the palace, stuffed some money into Liu Xu's hand, then shrunk out of the imperial city, and followed the map to the Beibang area.
Before I arrived in Beipang, I had read all the officials and intelligence in Beipang, and made a targeted plan. The first step was of course to stop the losses.
Capture Beipang, and the border area adhering to Beipang will be my buffer.
The southern part of Beibang is still considered the territory of the Southern Kingdom. The person who is responsible for guarding the territory is the emperor's confidant and veteran Ren Kong. This is also due to the fact that my relatives did not get involved in this hinterland, which left me with a secret turning point. So I am not specifically for Liu
Xu Cai planned to capture Beibang.
I arrived directly at this big city under Beibang, entered the city directly late at night with a secret edict, and quietly appeared in front of Ren Kong who was working.
Ren Kong was worthy of being a veteran. He just raised his eyebrows when he saw me appearing quietly. I didn't intend to play tricks with him, so I directly showed the emperor's edict naming me as the commander-in-chief of the march.
"How is it possible?" Ren Kong looked at the edict and the emperor's order. Of course he didn't believe it, but looking at my determined eyes and demeanor, he didn't dare to be scornful at all.
"The foreign relatives are in power, which has caused the border to be in danger and collapse at a single blow. Now the emperor has appointed me as the commander-in-chief of the march. I have the power to command the local army in an expedient manner. When the old general sees the imperial edict, he will act as if he is seeing the emperor. If he obeys the order, he will respond
Be under my control, of course. If you don't obey orders, then it's not my fault." I said coldly.
Ren Kong's mind was racing, his eyes were inevitably hesitating to the left and right, with axes and swords on both sides, but when he looked at me, he still seemed to have no sense of security. After all, he was calm in the face of doubts, and he already had the advantage, so his momentum was slightly lower.
, can’t even resist.
This veteran should always be a ruthless character, but compared to me, he is nothing.
So for a while, I felt frightened, and with the help of the imperial edict, I directly won the first battle as the commander-in-chief of the march. Of course, Ren Kong was no idiot. After agreeing, he immediately attacked me: "The border is full of chaos right now.
Refugees, Beipang insists on being integrated into the North Country, what is the commander-in-chief’s plan?”
