"Emperor, I am fortunate enough to honor my command. This box contains the head of the traitor, and all the other servants will be executed."

"Yes, you performed well. You have proved that you are indeed a smart person, and you are not a clever person. I am very satisfied."

"Being able to serve the emperor is my blessing, and being able to catch the traitor this time also drags down the emperor's majesty."

"Oh~ Although you said it nicely, I don't like this kind of vain praise. It's a sign of cowardice!"

Even though you said this, you still had a smile on your face. You just wanted to be praised more carefully!

"I am not exaggerating. This is indeed due to the majesty of the emperor." Although Li Shushi was full of slander, he at least succeeded in maintaining his respect for Emperor Xin on the surface. "Those traitors are actually hiding in that secret road."

In the space opened up in an inconspicuous branch of the road, it was not discovered only because of its exquisite structure and some debris piled around. However, the photo

Due to the majesty of the emperor, they did not dare to leave there and continue to flee until the emperor left. However, I happened to want to explore the secret passage in order to learn some common features of the secret passage so that they could continue searching, but they happened to find the trace of their escape.

I didn't have time to notify my subordinates, so I immediately chased after them. I was lucky enough to kill the traitors one by one before they could escape, thus completing the emperor's order."

"You are indeed an enviable lucky boy. But if you were not brave and careful, you would not be able to complete this task, so I will still appreciate you and reward you well. Tell me what you want.

Where’s the reward?”

Although Jiang was just a woman, Emperor Xin still did not underestimate the influence of this woman. She was not only the daughter of Dongbo Marquis Jiang Hengchu, but also the direct daughter of the powerful Dongyi tribe who was supported by Emperor Xin.

If such a woman had a heart-to-heart hatred for Di Xin, it would not be her choice.

Hiding in the mountains and forests but relying on other Dongyi or Yue tribes in the southeast, under the background that the Dongbohou line has been almost completely wiped out, the tribe that married the Jiang family can pass the marriage with the Jiang family

Thus, the powerful Dongyi tribe that once supported Emperor Xin was legitimately included.

Just like what Emperor Xin just did by letting Chong Hu's younger brother marry the granddaughter of the former leader of the Li tribe, which greatly enhanced the power of the Chong clan. This is very likely to not only make the already troublesome situation in the east more erosive, but

It would also create a new powerful enemy for the Shang Dynasty. This also meant that a new scale of conquest was needed to ensure the security of the country.

Not to mention that although this woman had a very bad relationship with Di Xin, she had extremely extensive connections in the circle of the top dignitaries of the Shang Dynasty. Even if Di Xin disliked her, he had to admit that this woman's influence was extraordinary.

If it triggers rebellion and also stirs up chaos within the Shang Dynasty, the blow to this dynasty will be even more difficult to estimate.

I have said before that although the country does not have the power to launch wars now, it is limited to small-scale and short-lasting battles. But once it needs to face the kind of war that will overwhelm the country or take more than two or three years,

. Then it will be an unprecedented disaster for the current national finance. It is definitely not a joke to waste a country working.

After all, whether it is the consumption of war or the destruction of production by war pressure, especially the latter, a large number of young people have to invest in the war, resulting in the desolation of slave owners' land, which in turn affects the process of the war. This will be a

Vicious cycle.

At that time, whether it is a new invasion of foreign enemies or an internal rebellion by the four princes, the country will become extremely dangerous.

Emperor Xin was just dissatisfied with Dong Bohou, who in his eyes indulged the Dongyi tribe's rebellion. He did not want to establish a new terrible enemy in the East that he had finally conquered, and Li Shushi's performance seemed to make the last one

The gap was completely blocked.

Faced with such a meritorious official who solved his serious problem, Di Xin did not feel that he was the kind of emperor who was stingy with rewards.

"I am lucky to be able to serve the emperor. But if the emperor really wants to reward me, then please let me serve as the sharp sword in the emperor's hand to conquer those rebellious people who cannot feel the majesty of the emperor, and use their heads

To warn the world."

Li Shuyong looked at Di Xin expectantly, and even Di Xin could feel the heat in his shining eyes.

Such a proposal was not Li Shushi's whim.

This time, the fruit illusion is composed of a bunch of experience fruits. The difference between this experience fruit and the other five fruits is that the other five fruits increase a person's basic attributes, that is, the physical potential. After passing the test, although each

The increase at one time is not very obvious, but it is helpful to a certain extent whether it is clearer ears and eyesight or understanding of various martial arts strategies.

But this experience result alone, in the game, represents a direct improvement in level. But in this plane, it does not seem to have such a direct effect, even for a being like Xiaoqiang after a trip to the fantasy world.

But it was not like it had never happened before that he felt nothing, so Li Shushi originally entered this illusion with a feeling of apprehension.

Li Shushi didn't know what he could gain from this long trip, so he would rather risk his own life to find a way to increase his gains. He didn't want his trip to be in vain, but he also hoped that through more

More exploration to find out what kind of gains they can get in the illusion built by the experience fruit.

Although Xiaoqiang is very capable, judging from the results, it is still too difficult for him to do such a thing. Therefore, the safest way is to do it by himself and cooperate with some smart guys. I believe that there may be some possibility of discovering something.

will be higher.

Although the harvest this time is huge, Li Shushi does not believe that similar experiences will happen every time, so these gains can only be regarded as finding some things in a large copy that can be greatly improved.

There are side tasks to evaluate the copy and obtain some rare props, but the harvest of the side tasks does not mean the completion of the main task. What Li Shushi needs most is to be able to promote the completion of the main task or find clues to the completion of the main task through the side tasks.

But all this was realized inadvertently, and this was the fundamental reason why Li Shushi hoped to receive such an award.

"A very ambitious idea. Then I will allow you to obtain thirty more military vehicles, as well as a thousand strong slaves, and the related weapons and armor will satisfy you as much as possible. Let you become a sharp weapon in the hands of my Emperor Xin

Sword, cut off the delusions of the traitors in all directions!"

Although the harvest cannot be said to be great, it is enough to satisfy Li Shushi. After all, when the number of troops is small, the general's personal strength will be more important. On the contrary, if it reaches the scale of the country of thousands of chariots and the kingdom of ten thousand chariots, personal strength will be more important.

Bravery has become less important. How to use strategy and diplomacy correctly, and how to ensure logistical supplies are the foundation for victory in war.

"My lord, why would you make such a request? Didn't you say before that you would find an opportunity to obtain some precious ancient books and secret techniques?"

Although some other things happened at the court meeting, for example, Nanbohou E Chongyu expressed dissatisfaction with Emperor Xin for executing Dongbohou Jiang Hengchu and his family so hastily. Zhunbeibohou Chonghu reported to Xibohou Jichang because he had been reprimanded before, and now because of Dongbohou,

The prince Jiang Hengchu was dissatisfied after being killed, and always complained at home, loudly cursing Emperor Xin that such behavior would surely lead to the destruction of the country...

These little things have nothing to do with Li Shushi. What he is most anxious about now is to see the newly acquired troops. These troops will be the basis for all their actions in the future, but they are very important "props" for customs clearance.

ah.

However, because Li Shushi did not say hello to others in this matter, when these people heard the result, Wei Yan, who was accustomed to seeking death, naturally became everyone's "recommended" cannon fodder scapegoat, and the second echelon

Xia Houjuan seemed to be ready and ready to respond at any time, but Yang Fu stood aside and smiled without saying a word, while Sima Yi neither smiled nor said a word.

I don’t know why. Suddenly I feel a faint sympathy for those who have been suppressed in terms of IQ, and there is always an illusion of being connected with the same fate.

It must be an illusion, otherwise he always feels a little too pitiful!

However, this time Li Shushi did not intend to "punish" Wei Yan, who was a cannon fodder but had no cannon fodder consciousness.

After all, even if he already has some ideas in his mind, he still needs the help of others to confirm his own point of view.

"Well, I have also considered this matter. Zixiao, you are different from them. You are the only experienced person besides me, so I guess the next words I will only speak to you.

Only after listening can you be qualified to make a judgment."

Then, Cao Ren was pulled into a corner by Li Shushi, leaving behind six people looking at each other and a woman with a weird smile.

"Zixiao, you have experienced several illusions before." In the corner, after making sure that no one was eavesdropping, Li Shushi said to Cao Ren with a sneaky look: "In your impression, if you are in the illusion

Can you gain experience by killing enemies?"

"Well, no, not at all. In the real world, even if you injure a living creature, even just a pig or dog, you can get even a small improvement. There will be more beasts, especially powerful enemies. But in the fantasy world

Among them, no matter whether the enemy is injured or killed, there will be no reaction. According to everyone

This is also the case. Apart from the improvement after passing through the illusion, the only thing that can be obtained is the knowledge, martial arts, and strategies acquired in the illusion. What's going on? Is it possible that there will be some changes here?

?That’s why, my lord, you have to choose an army and find an opportunity to go out and fight?”

"As expected of Zixiao, your guess is good. When I was testing with Huang Feihu, I used various strategies to kill some enemies. Although it felt a little strange at the time, it was not obvious, so I didn't pay too much attention to it. But

This time when I was chasing down Queen Jiang, I killed many of Queen Jiang's followers, and this gave me a more obvious feeling. Although I am not completely sure, I am almost certain to make an assumption, that is, in this space

Within, hurting people should not be promoted, only killing people

It's possible, but the rewards shouldn't be comparable to those in the real world. In addition, those strategies that can enhance yourself, weaken the enemy, and therapeutic strategies shouldn't improve yourself, but they can make you better at strategy.

It’s become easier to understand. I don’t know much about martial arts, so I’m not sure, but I also feel that my understanding of various martial arts has become a lot easier during this time. I think I should have some knowledge in this aspect.

Help, but it’s of limited help to me.”

"...Well, what the lord said is probably right. Originally, I thought that having a good teacher made me achieve a breakthrough in my previous accumulation during this period. However, after the lord's explanation, maybe there is something else in it.

The help of illusion.”

"The only uncertainty now is whether such improvements can be brought to the real world."

"Back then, even if Zilong failed in the challenge, he still acquired several very practical strategies. How could we not be able to bring them out?"

"Since Zixiao also feels this way, how about we do something bigger this time?"

"Since my lord has decided to do this before, doesn't he already have a plan? It's really sad to tell Ren now. Could it be that because I'm with Meng De now, my lord feels that Ren is also untrustworthy here?

What?"

"I don't trust you anymore, not at all, so I decided to assassinate you now and then take all the gains~"

"It's over. If you don't want the secret to leak out, just take me with you. Otherwise, my lord, you understand~"

In the middle of the fight, the future of this small group has been decided, and of course, perhaps the future of this country.

Isn’t it a bit childish?

But speaking of it, even in the real world, some major events that determine the direction of history are ultimately due to a seemingly small reason, such as a nail in the shoe of a war horse that was not nailed firmly.

For another example, if the flying height of the two horses was reduced by more than ten centimeters, it is estimated that the Wei State would be able to unify the world.

Compared with things like this, Li Shushi felt that what he was doing now could be regarded as thoughtful.

After Cao Ren came back from the corner, he didn't even need to explain anything. Just a smile silenced the two little guys who had always been uneasy. Moreover, there was a look on his face that was full of admiration and love that made Li Shushi feel particularly painful.

A trusting smile.
