Zhenhuang has been a bit anxious recently. He is not in the mood or has the energy to set his sights on Dadui, which is not close to the Great Earthquake.
In the past, a lot of time and energy was spent on reducing the vassal state, but it was actually a last resort.
The territory suitable for survivability, or survivability, during major earthquakes has been continuously compressed in the past two hundred years, but King Feng occupies the warmest and most fertile land.
The accumulated conflicts, in this case, completely broke out. Emperor Zhen must be ruthless and determined to deal with the unstoppable King Feng.
This was a crisis, but also an opportunity. In the end, Zhenhuang did it.
Precisely because a large amount of land was released after the vassal reduction, most of the internal conflicts in the earthquake were alleviated in one fell swoop, and centralization of power was strengthened.
Before the Great Earthquake, the Faceless Men did not expand outwards. They had always focused on the interior of the Great Earthquake. The power and control of the imperial court, such as the other two divine dynasties, was also one of the important reasons.
However, now, Emperor Lao Qian is going through the tribulation in the Extreme Cold Forbidden Land, and what he has done has directly caused the Extreme Cold Forbidden Land to get out of control.
Normally, most places in the southeastern quarter of the earthquake would have completely thawed after entering March.
At that time, there was a major earthquake in Northeast China, and some places had begun to thaw.
In the past 200 years, major earthquakes in the southeast will begin to thaw before the end of March.
But this year, it's already April, and there's still no sign of thaw.
This spring, it won’t be able to bloom, and it will continue to get colder.
Fortunately, the monks can handle it.
Even with the previous accumulation, it is not a big problem for ordinary people to carry it for two years.
But the problem now is that the cold wave has crossed the Hengduan Mountains and the ice line continues to move south. This is obviously not something that will get better in a year or two.
Population and land are the cornerstones of the divine dynasty.
When neither of these two things are available, the monk's family power will, at worst, bite the bullet and directly abandon the foundation here, move the whole family to another place, and start over again.
As long as there are people with inheritance, it will be more difficult than before, at least it will not die out.
When it really develops to this point, the divine dynasty will irrevocably enter the process of extinction.
Li Xingchen has also been very busy recently. He arrested a court official today.
Because this guy was going to make a public announcement at the court meeting, proposing to take back the other half of the old land that was taken away by Dali back then.
This time, Zhenhuang didn't give the other party a chance to speak at all.
As long as you put it forward, someone will definitely agree with it.
When the conflicts accumulate and become more and more intense, they will inevitably be vented outward and the war will restart.
Zhenhuang put down the confession in his hand, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes.
The result of Li Xingchen's investigation was that there should be no one behind the captured courtier, just because the family's headquarters behind him was now in the north and close to the Hengduan Mountains.
The other party was a little anxious.
To put it more deeply, the other party still wants to maintain its foundation in the earthquake.
But the more this happens, the more it proves that things are developing in a serious direction.
By the time the storm begins to spread to the lower levels, by next year and the year after that, the results will already be foreseeable.
At that time, there will be only one way to go, and even Emperor Zhen will be unable to stop it.
No matter how much you scold Lao Qianhuang now, it will be of no use.
Letters began to be sent out from the earthquake and sent to various places.
In the wilderness of Dadui, Yu Ziqing, who was sleeping underground, finally woke up after sleeping for several days.
The practice of Zhu Daoting has made a qualitative leap, because the Datui Dynasty itself has gone from hanging in the air to being down-to-earth, with the earth's energy flowing and vitality growing. The national destiny of the Divine Dynasty has finally been completely stabilized. It's not like that. A state of virtual prosperity.
The first person to benefit was naturally Yu Ziqing.
After getting out of the ground, Yu Zi took a deep breath and felt the slightly moist cold wind blowing from the north.
Without even looking, Yu Ziqing knew that what Lao Qianhuang, a weakling, did in the Forbidden City of the Forbidden City would probably have a huge impact.
As soon as we returned to Miyagi City, Lao Zhang sent a lot of information, as well as a letter from a hungry ghost to Yu Ziqing.
There is nothing much to say about the data, except that after Dadui returned, a series of various things happened, most of which were within the scope of the plan.
Wen has six cabinet ministers, and Wu has fourteen ministers. Everything is under control.
The only possible external risks that Dadui has to face are from the east.
To the north is the Jinlan Mountain Forbidden Land and to the south is the South China Sea, so there won't be any big problems.
The West Sea to the west is too barren and can be ignored.
The start after Dadui's return has been very smooth.
Yu Ziqing gave it a rough sweep and left it to professionals to handle.
He opened the letter sent by the hungry ghost. It was sent by the profiteer hungry ghost. He said it was a letter from King Xiang, and he wanted to purchase unlimited amounts of various basic materials from the channel of the profiteer hungry ghost.
Later, I talked about the current situation of the earthquake, and all the information was very detailed.
Large channels like profiteers and hungry ghosts will be very sensitive to the price of many things and will be well-informed.
Behind a large amount of information, the profiteer and hungry ghost is still showing off his merits, saying that he has remembered his master's teachings and endured the situation with tears in his eyes for the sake of his master's reputation. He did not seize the opportunity to make money with blood and only made half of what he could earn.
Yu Ziqing rolled his eyes and said to himself, if profiteers and hungry ghosts thought they were making money with blood, they should definitely be hanged.
In the current situation, if you add fuel to the flames, sooner or later you will be killed by someone who is pressing you.
I'll go back and connect Dadui's specialty channels to profiteers and hungry ghosts. This guy is quite confident.
His business grew bigger and bigger, so much so that rumors began to spread in many places in Da Li that people could make a fortune by making offerings to hungry ghosts.
Hungry ghosts are still aliens after all. If they don't have a good reputation, don't know how to kidnap more people by sharing profits, and make so much money themselves, sooner or later they will make people jealous and offend many people for no reason.
Fortunately, what the profiteer and hungry ghost only likes is the process of doing business and making money, and he is not obsessed with the results. Otherwise, Yu Ziqing would really not dare to put him in that position.
After reading the letter here, before I could think of how to respond, I sensed the call from the seventh floor.
Yu Ziqing closed his eyes and entered the seventh floor. He saw Song Chengyue sitting in his seat and let out a long sigh.
"You finally reacted. What happened?"
"My practice has reached a critical stage, I have gained some insights, and I have gone into retreat. Is there anything wrong?"
"Dadui has returned, how can this happen?
A lot of my men were captured by Dadui.
There are also problems at the border between Datu and Daqian. We were still considering territorial issues before.
Unexpectedly, after Datui returned, there would be no territorial conflict with Dagan at all.
Not only did Dadui take no action, but he actively engaged the border people in the west and went to Dadui again.
Coupled with the huge earthquake and challenging documents and a lot of things, I was very busy and exhausted.
I'm mainly looking for you for one thing, can you find some acquaintances in Dadui and fish out my men?"
"Are there many people?"
"A few hundred."
"Be specific." Yu Ziqing was a little speechless. Is the current Jin Yiwei so stretched out?
The Riddler in Dadui doesn't seem that strong, right? How did he dig out all these Jin Yiwei in such a short time?
"It is said that they were all imprisoned in the eastern border city. If they were not all killed, they must have committed nothing.
Otherwise, the people in Dadui are so murderous that it would be impossible to keep them.
There are probably more than 900 people. If you see anyone you know, tell me."
"More than nine hundred are also called hundreds? I don't know anyone over at the eastern border. Let me ask you, are they all direct descendants of your subordinates?"
"They must be direct descendants. For such an important matter as going to Dadui to obtain information, of course I have to be cautious and send someone with stronger capabilities."
"Okay, let me ask you..."
Yu Ziqing was speechless. He came out from the seventh floor and asked Jia Shi4.
Only then did I realize why Dadui was so successful in guarding against outsiders. It was because of a simple accent issue.
Those Jin Yiwei had studied unexpectedly in advance, but the difference between what they thought was the standard Dadui dialect and the actual accent was a tiny bit different.
"The outside world doesn't know my current identity yet. Find a Riddler who can have some connection with Jin Lanshan and go see those Jin Yiwei.
If there's nothing wrong with it, let's see if we can use it for ourselves.
problematic……"
"Your Majesty, there is a problem. Well, you may never go back." Jia Shisi laughed dryly. He had no idea that His Majesty was so wild and had something to do with the top brass of Jinyiwei.
If this matter spreads out, Emperor Qian's face will definitely look very good.
"Well, you can conquer those who can be conquered. Jinyiwei has been active for so many years, and he must know much more about this era than you do.
If there's nothing wrong with the rest, just let it go.
How to operate it is up to you."
"I understand, I promise there will be no problems." Jia Shi4 understood with all his heart. This was a favor from Jinlan Shan Qing Ziyu, not an order from the emperor.
"For the rest, if you have any questions, go to Lao Zhang. Focus on stability and don't rush for success."
Yu Ziqing suddenly laughed when he thought about Song Chengyue looking for him.
This time we will start poaching some of Song Chengyue's subordinates. It doesn't matter how many of them we have. Sooner or later we will have to poach Old Song too.
The two generations of emperors from Daqian were too outrageous.
After all, Lao Song had helped him a lot. If it were revealed that he was the Dui Huang in the future, Lao Song would probably be in a bad situation if he was still working hard.
No matter what, nothing can be done to make Lao Song die.
We have to think of some way to lure Lao Song over smoothly.
After Yu Ziqing finished explaining, he quietly left the palace city and headed north.
He wanted to see with his own eyes the situation in the Extremely Cold Forbidden Land and see how the two Yang Demons were doing.
Because the situation is a bit out of control.
Yu Ziqing flew all the way, entering the Forbidden City from the north of the wasteland. With a blink of an eye, he saw that the blue sky was full of cracks and had begun to spread outside the Forbidden City.
The northern part of the wasteland is obviously colder than before, and the Hengduan Mountains can no longer block the cold air in the extreme cold forbidden area.
In Yu Ziqing's mind, the scene of the great sun soaring in the sky suddenly appeared.
Then I thought about the situation during the earthquake.
In just two or three hundred years, the Great Earthquake has gone through too many things.
Evil ways were rampant, there was internal rebellion, and later there were two battles with Dali.
If it hadn't been for Yu Ziqing's mediation, Da Zhen and Da Li would probably still be fighting now.
But now, seeing this situation, the situation has become very clear.
The volley of the sun is related to Lao Qianhuang, and this time he jumped directly on the bright side and ran to the extreme cold forbidden place to escape the tribulation.
This is to promote the creation of the general trend of the world, forcing the earthquake to have no choice, even seeing through it is useless, the matter is still the same.
People who were hit by the earthquake had no choice but to go south if they wanted to survive.
Initially, they migrated from the northern part of the earthquake to the southern part of the earthquake.
Today, the entire country's population is concentrated in the southeastern quarter, or even less than a quarter of the territory.
Where else can they move?
Emperor Zhen, and even the forces up and down the Great Earthquake, cannot give up.
The only option is to cross the border and continue south.
If you are forced into a desperate situation, you will really not care about anything.
Even if Emperor Zhen knew that this matter was related to Emperor Lao Qian, or even confirmed that Emperor Lao Qian had planned it, it would be useless.
There is a big gap between Da Zhen and Da Qian.
What they need first is not revenge, but survival first.
In the end, if you seize the living space, you will definitely fight against Dali.
And no matter what happens to Dali, they will definitely not cede large areas of territory.
This will lead to no right or wrong, no grudges, and a pure fight for survival.
In this case, negotiation is of no use.
Once you start, there will be no turning back.
There was no grudge or hatred before, it was there at the beginning, and the follow-up will only become more and more intense.
If Da Qian does something to add fuel to the flames at this time, it will be a war between the Three Gods.
When the time comes, Da Dui still wants to watch the show next to him?
Beautiful thought!
The war between the four divine dynasties and many major forces will definitely be involved.
In the end, if you want to end the war, there is a high probability that the earthquake will deplete the last bit of vitality alive.
Coupled with the confrontation between the strong, everyone else will not fare well.
The best result is that one of the divine dynasties will be destroyed, and the remaining three divine dynasties will have enough living space, so there is no need to fight and a new balance will be re-established.
Yu Ziqing just stood here, saw the current situation of the Extremely Cold Forbidden Land, and combined with the various information sent before, he was able to deduce it up to this point.
He didn't believe that Emperor Zhen didn't understand, and he didn't believe that Emperor Li didn't understand.
Nowadays, it is no longer something that can be solved by Yu Ziqing sitting in the middle and mediating with each other.
No matter how deceptive you are, you can't solve the big problem of filling the bellies of hundreds of millions of people after the earthquake.
But now, the situation should not be irreversibly bad. Emperor Zhen must understand, so he is now using various channels to purchase basic materials.
This is not purchasing from profiteers and hungry ghosts. After all, profiteers and hungry ghosts have powerful channels. It is also aimed at monks. Where can they get so many basic materials? This is purchasing from Dali through profiteers and hungry ghosts.
Dali didn't want things to get out of control, so he could only mobilize a large amount of resources to provide procurement for profiteers and hungry ghosts.
Apart from the Divine Dynasty, there is no second major channel that can supply it.
The contact has already begun, and it is obvious that Emperor Zhen does not want things to slip into an uncontrollable abyss.
As for Da Qian, the new Emperor Qian, a filial son, will probably not follow his father's plan, and will probably cause some trouble.
Yu Ziqing sighed softly, a trace of flame emerged from his fingertips, and came into contact with the extremely cold current. After waiting for a long time, nothing changed.
I can only feel that the energy of the blazing sun is being swallowed up at a normal speed.
Yang Mo didn't respond at all and seemed to have disappeared.
He wandered in the extremely cold forbidden land for a long time, and there was nothing but the blue sky transformed by the broken person.
Just when he was about to leave, he finally noticed something different in the sky to the west.
In the broken blue sky, there is a place that wants to be connected, but is constantly broken, and the cycle goes back and forth. That place is really drifting above the sky with the fluctuations.
Yu Ziqing closed his eyes, and Yang Shen also opened his eyes. Looking up, the fluctuations became more obvious.
"It's you?"
The fluctuation became extremely intense in an instant.
The Sun-Destroying Demon was so excited that he finally waited until Yu Ziqing arrived, but he could only drift with the crowd here, unable to communicate.
If Yu Ziqing couldn't find the abnormality, he didn't expect anyone else to.
"Calm down, are you out? Flashing once is confirmation, but twice is not."
It flashed.
"The Liuyang Demon, your other half, is here?"
Flash twice.
"Do you still remember what you are looking for?"
of course I remember.
Yu Ziqing was silent for a moment, he heard what the wheel said.
If they had not entered the muddy sea of troubled times and still wandered outside, they would eventually be reduced to the current state of the Sun-Destroying Demon, and would be slowly annihilated.
Yu Ziqing took out a blank tablet, mobilized the power of the Dadai Dynasty, wrote the three words "Destroying Sun Demon" on it, and prepared to leave the altar and arrange the preparations for the ritual.
Yu Ziqing started the ritual without saying a word, then raised his head and looked at the sky.
"Enter here and I will send you to death."
The next moment, the Sun-Destroying Demon was seen to directly respond to the ritual without any hesitation. Even the three words "Sun-Destroying Demon" were answered directly.
The light floated on the tablet, and a very special aura emerged.
Now Yu Ziqing has confirmed that the person here is the Sun-Destroying Demon. Only the Sun-Destroying Demon will not hesitate in death.
Even though he was condemned to death by the Sun-Destroying Demon at this moment, he did not hesitate.
It is absolutely impossible for Liuyang Demon to do this.
"It seems it's really you, not another one."
With a temporary shelter, the Sun-Destroying Demon was finally able to communicate with Yu Ziqing.
"That idiot with unrealistic delusions followed the one who overcame the tribulation and fled into the void."
The Sun-Destroying Demon recounted everything that had happened before, including the matter of Lao Qianhuang taking advantage of them.
After finishing speaking, the Sun-Destroying Demon asked anxiously.
"Did you really find a way?"
"To be honest, I have a clue. I'm just not sure which one you are. I want to try."
"It's good if you have a clue..." The Sun-Destroying Demon didn't care about Yu Ziqing's temptation. His only obsession now was to embrace death.
"Can you sense where the Liuyang Demon is?"
"I am only certain that he is not in this world, and the rest is not certain. The two of us are now completely divided."
"If he comes back, can you sense it?"
"I can sense it, but I'm not sure exactly where it is."
"Okay, don't worry, I will do my best to help you with what I promised you, but I also have something I need your help with now."
"You can just ask, now there is nothing to hide."
"Your personality has been shattered like this, and you have begun to leave the extreme cold forbidden land. How can you put it back together, even if you maintain it in the extreme cold forbidden land?"
