Chapter 157: Improving Punishment Power Suspicion (Please subscribe)
Pei Tianbei looked surprised. When the imperial edict was taken away last year, Guanshan Madman was still alive.
I remember at that time, Brother Lu seemed unable to kill the crazy Guanshan demon.
"Don't worry about his life or death, give this broken armor to your father and build another set of armor." Lu Ning looked at Pei Tianbei and said.
With his second-level cultivation, it is impossible for him to participate in the war, but he took this opportunity to re-forge the black armor of Guanshan Crazy Demon, and maybe it can be used in the future.
"It's Brother Lu, I'll go right away." Pei Tianbei nodded.
Guanshan Crazy Demon's mysterious armor is quite heavy, but to Pei Tianbei it is as light as nothing.
Return to Hokushoji.
Lu Ning sat in front of the writing desk, thinking about it. Sitting like this was not enough, so he immediately rode to Tianlao.
As the punishment power of Heavenly Punishment increases, the experience points will increase.
He had speculated before that the power of punishment comes from the seven steps of tracking, arrest, confrontation, criminal trial, supervision, and interrogation.
Now it seems that there are only four steps: confrontation, criminal trial, supervision, and interrogation.
Fighting is the so-called arrest, and you can get about 20 penalty power, and you can get 15 penalty power for the criminal trial.
Supervision can reach a penalty power of 25, but Lu Ning feels that the penalty power may be 30 online, but the supervision is not strong enough and it has never been reached.
The last step is to ask for a slash, which should be 35 penalty power.
If the penalty power of Heaven's Punishment is taken as 100, it would be 20 for hand-to-hand combat, 15 for criminal trial, 30 for supervision, and 35 for interrogation, for a total of 100.
However, the current catalog of Heavenly Punishment shows that the highest penalty power value is 45 penalty power, and none of them reaches 60 or above.
Of course, he kills the criminal and gets the punishment power in one go.
It may be that all penalty values are included, so that the experience gained is very large.
But there is a drawback to Wenzhan, which is that you have to kill yourself.
For felons imprisoned in the Sky Prison, those on the second and third floors are fine, and some can be executed secretly.
The felons who were locked up on the first floor had to be pulled out and executed. It was impossible for him to be the executioner himself.
Arrive at Tianlao.
Lu Ning immediately went to verify it.
The person he verified was Wei Shuxian. He was responsible for the arrest and interrogation. Now it depends on supervision.
Sure enough, he stayed in the third heaven for an hour.
I saw a change in the catalog of Heaven's Punishment. On Wei Shuxian's page, Heaven's Punishment became 45 Punishment Power.
After the unitary hour, Lu Ning went around again, and the penalty power became 55.
Thinking about this, Lu Ning got some food for Wei Shuxian from the kitchen, and the Heavenly Punishment directly reached 65 Punishment Power.
Sure enough.
Confirmed my thoughts.
The head with the highest penalty value is Asking Slash.
Wen Zhan means killing people, and the penalty power value accounts for a higher proportion.
Lu Ning murmured and left the third floor of the prison.
The next day.
Not until half an hour.
Lu Ning hurriedly got up and washed up.
Afterwards, he had something to eat briefly, mounted the horse prepared by Kong Rong, and headed to the palace for the morning court meeting.
When he came, all the civil and military officials looked at him.
When Qin Zhong saw Lu Ning, a flash of joy flashed in his eyes: "Oh, I haven't seen Deputy Director Lu for a long time!"
Lu Ning smiled: "Mr. Qin's face is glowing. His life has been quite good recently."
Qin Zhong laughed and said: "Fortunately, okay, the rioters in the five states were recently frightened by Deputy Lu's few words. The noise has been reduced, and I can sleep peacefully!"
Lu Ning smiled and said no more to Qin Zhong.
Coming to Gu Fengtang's side, Gu Fengtang whispered: "In the court for a while, you just listen. Your Majesty won't ask you, so you don't need to express any opinions."
Lu Ning nodded.
After a while, morning begins.
Lu Ning stood behind Gu Fengtang and lined up with the military attache.
Gu Fengtang stood first on the far right, and Lu Ning stood behind him.
On the dragon chair, the empress is wearing a black dragon robe, a black gauze winged crown on her head, a string of long jade beads hanging around her neck, and her crystal jade lips, which are bright and lustrous.
When she saw Lu Ning, the corners of her mouth turned up slightly, and there was a smile in her eyes.
After two glances, he turned away and looked at the civil and military ministers.
"Your Majesty, long live, long live, long live."
"Everyone is safe!"
Next, there was a war of words between Qin Zhong, Xu Kaishi, Zhang Juming, Shi Rui and others.
Gu Fengtang also stood aside holding Chao Hu, feeling drowsy.
Look at Pei Tong, the uncle of the state, standing on the far left, holding the Chao Hut without saying a word.
Today, the Duke of Zhenguo also talks very little and shuts up after saying a few words.
Lu Ning listened to it briefly and found it uninteresting.
The empress sat on the dragon chair and remained calm, but she was observing the changes in everyone's expressions.
In fact, there are very few people who take charge of the battle. After all, the troops go up to plan and the troops go down to fight.
The main reason is that the gap between the imperial court's current military strength and that of King Yongshan's Silver Armored Army and Black Dragon Cavalry is quite large. If a fight breaks out, the imperial court is not sure of winning at all.
Let King Yongshan be beaten to Beijing and Zhou Dynasty. With King Yongshan's cruel and ruthless temper, whoever shouts joyfully in the court will die quickly.
But the empress knew in her heart that her uncle, the Sixth Emperor, was good at fighting and liked to fight. This battle was definitely going to be fought. In fact, before her father died, her Sixth Uncle had such thoughts.
As things have developed to this day, God is no longer sitting on the throne.
How could King Yongshan give up? He definitely wanted to pull her, the emperor's niece, from the throne.
"Pei Shangshu, what do you think?" the empress looked at Pei Tong and asked.
When Pei Tong saw the empress asking questions, he hesitated and said: "Return to your majesty, I don't have any opinion. If your majesty says to hit me, I will hit you."
Hearing this, the empress sighed softly, looked at Lu Ning with her phoenix eyes, and said: "Deputy Secretary Lu, among the civil and military officials, you are the youngest. I have listened to you all morning. Please tell me what you think."
Everyone's eyes couldn't help but turn to Lu Ning.
Lu Ning glanced at Gu Fengtang in front of him. Gu Fengtang was still pretending to be sleepy.
Lu Ning pondered for a moment, then walked out of the queue and said, "Your Majesty, regarding King Yongshan's large-scale war, I have heard a little or two about it, and I have two opinions in my mind."
Upon hearing that there were two opinions, everyone became more curious.
The empress also said with joy on her face: "Tell me quickly."
Lu Ning organized his speech and said slowly: "It has not been just a day or two since King Yongshan raised his troops and respected himself."
"Your Majesty can issue an imperial edict first, ordering King Yongshan to send 500,000 troops to attack the Demonic Territory of the Southern Border. The day after receiving the imperial edict can be delayed for up to three days before the troops must be sent."
"There is no need for any reason to attack the Southern Border Demon Territory, so there is no need to specify it."
"If King Yongshan does not send troops for three days after receiving the imperial edict, His Majesty will issue another imperial edict asking King Yongshan to hand over 500,000 black dragon riders, and Shangshu Pei will personally take over and go to attack the monster clan in southern Xinjiang."
"If King Yongshan still refuses to obey, the third imperial edict directly points out that King Yongshan has treasonous intentions and asks him to hand over all military power and have Pei Shangshu take over."
Everyone frowned when they heard this. How could King Yongshan hand over his military power at this time?
The empress raised her eyebrows and said, "What if King Yongshan doesn't want to pay her?"
Lu Ning said with a smile: "Your Majesty issued an imperial edict to inform the world that King Yongshan is self-reliant in his troops. He secretly recruited and trained 500,000 troops and horses, and has a total of one million troops in order to plot against the throne of the world."
"Your Majesty began to speak eloquently, begging, must use it, thirsty for talents, begging for capable people in the world, to fight against the national calamity together, capture the king of Yongshan alive, make him a marquis and worship him as a general, reward him with one hundred thousand taels of gold, and thousands of hectares of fertile land."
"With this condition, Your Majesty, are you still worried that no one will vindicate you?"
"There are tens of billions of people in the world during the Great Zhou Dynasty. There are plenty of people to help you put an end to the chaos."
Hearing this, in the court hall, all the Gonggun princes looked at Lu Ning in surprise.
I just felt that the capable person Lu Ning was talking about was himself.
"The last suggestion is that Your Majesty can order the recruitment of troops. The target is three million, and the momentum must be spread so that all the nine states know about it."
Lu Ning added.
The court hall suddenly became quiet. Isn't it a little late to recruit troops now?
Three million more?
Eating is a problem.
The empress raised her eyebrows slightly and said: "Deputy Secretary Lu, why are you giving me this suggestion? You must know that we are currently recruiting three million troops. Even if we train until the end of the year, we may not be able to train well."
Lu Ning smiled and said: "Your Majesty, my Lu family's art of war says that soldiers are crafty!"
Hearing this, even the sleepy Gu Fengtang widened his eyes and looked back at Lu Ning.
Everyone is also surprised, do you, the Lu family, still have the art of war?
The empress' eyes flashed slightly, and she thought to herself that five generations of your Lu family have been jailers, where did you get the art of war?
Lu Ning didn't pay attention to everyone's looks. Anyway, he changed "Sun Tzu's Art of War" and changed it to "Lu Family's Art of War". The younger sister took it to the Confucius Institute.
The military sage Zhuge Xiangru regarded it as a treasure, and by reading "The Art of War" by Sun Tzu, his cultivation improved by leaps and bounds.
Now I am afraid that he is the strongest saint in Confucius Academy and is about to reach the first level of cultivation.
"Only by being weak and strong can we win."
"Three million is just a bluff. What we really want to recruit are talented people. Officials from the Ministry of War must be dispatched to handle this."
"For those with cultivation levels above seventh level, the number does not need to be too large. Two hundred thousand people are enough."
"With generous conditions, it's very easy to recruit, and it doesn't take long to train."
The empress and others probably understood what Lu Ning was thinking. This was a psychological warfare. Three million soldiers were recruited. Once the imperial edict came out, there was no way it could be false.
This time, what Lu Ning said came true.
Not only are the common people afraid, but the Silver Armored Army and the Black Dragon Riders are also afraid in their hearts, even if they don't say anything about it.
The most important point is, in the face of millions of elite soldiers and generals on the Great Wednesday, King Anshan, will you still help King Yongshan to rebel?
The powerful families and wealthy businessmen of the five states, do you still want to help King Yongshan rebel?
All the royal families in the Western Regions, do you still want to send troops to help King Yongshan?
Use the virtual to shock the real.
The empress has a smile in her phoenix eyes, but it’s you, Lu Ning, who deserves it!
Be polite first and then attack with force, using the weak to shock the strong.
No matter what it is, it forces King Yongshan to rebel. The only thing is that it is not easy to recruit 200,000 soldiers, who are above the seventh level of cultivation and whose family background is innocent.
Even so, the empress still asked Qin Zhong and Pei Tong to take care of it.
Although Qin Zhong was making a lot of noise in the court, Qin Zhong was completely unwilling to ask him to draft an imperial edict and take it to Yongzhou.
But he didn't dare to disobey the empress' order, so he had no choice but to accept it.
Morning ends.
After the empress gave Lu Ning a look, she left the Tai Chi Hall.
After a moment, the civil and military officials also turned around and walked out of the Tai Chi Hall.
"Deputy Secretary Lu!"
Qin Zhong walked at the end and called Lu Ning.
Lu Ning smiled and said, "What advice does Mr. Ge have?"
Qin Zhong smiled and said: "Deputy Secretary Lu is young, smart and thoughtful. It is a great blessing for Zhou. I have two things to ask Deputy Secretary Lu."
Lu Ning smiled and said, "Excuse me, Sir."
Qin Zhong said: "It's like this. I have a housekeeper named Wei Shuxian. He went home to pay homage to his old father at the earliest time. I don't know why he was taken away by the Demon Suppressor."
"What's going on here?"
Lu Ning smiled and said, "Have you not heard, Mr. Ge, that Wei Shuxian killed Zhou Huan and went to Anzhou to join King Anshan, hoping to become a rebel?"
"Ah! Is this possible?"
Qin Zhong was surprised for a while and said hurriedly: "That's not right. Wei Shuxian has some cultivation, only a seventh-level strength. How could he kill Zhou Qianhu?"
Lu Ning smiled and said: "No, he is a third-level cultivation base and has very hard bones. He hasn't explained anything yet. Mr. Qin Ge doesn't need to worry."
"hehe……!"
Qin Zhong chuckled and said: "I'm not worried, but I'm a little sad that I made a mistake. Fortunately, I'm so kind to him. I didn't expect the ambition of a wolf."
"Deputy Secretary Lu, I'll put him on trial. If he doesn't tell me, I'll charge him with treason, pull him out and kill him."
Lu Ning smiled: "What Mr. Ge said makes sense, I am planning to give Lord Sizheng such advice."
Qin Zhong nodded with a smile and said: "Deputy Secretary Lu, the second thing is that your Majesty asked an old minister to draft an imperial edict and send it to King Yongshan. What do you think your Majesty's intention is?"
Lu Ning smiled and said: "You are the cabinet minister, His Majesty's auxiliary minister, and a minister. If you don't help His Majesty share the state affairs, who will share it?"
"Does Mr. Ge think that His Majesty is harming you?"
"No no no..."
Qin Zhong waved his hands repeatedly, looked around and said, "Deputy Secretary Lu, you can't say this nonsense. I just don't understand His Majesty's thoughts."
Lu Ning smiled and said: "Mr. Qin Ge, feel free to do it, your Majesty will be in charge if anything happens!"
Qin Zhong nodded and said with a smile: "Deputy Secretary Lu is right, I will do it now."
Until the civil and military officials left.
Lu Ning approached Gu Fengtang and said, "Sir Sizheng, I want to go to Yongle Palace."
Gu Fengtang smiled and nodded: "Go ahead, I will arrange the affairs of Bei Zhengsi for you first."
Lu Ning cupped his hands and headed towards Yongle Palace.
Yongle Palace.
Lu Ning first paid homage to the empress, and then entered the inner hall with the empress.
The two of them were alone.
The empress looked at Lu Ning's tall and straight body and handsome face, and she was so happy.
Lu Ning looked at the empress's delicate face, her glistening red lips, slightly curled up, she looked so sexy and charming.
If it weren't for the difference in status, Lu Ning almost couldn't hold back and stepped forward to give the empress a big hug.
The empress smiled softly and said: "Chang'an, how is Mr. Jinlin's investigation going?"
Lu Ning said: "This man is cunning and has many masters around him. I went to Sangzhou and met him in Sangcheng, but I didn't catch him."
"Wei Chen was thinking along the way. Young Master Jinlin is, after all, a figure who cannot be put on the stage. He is no better than King Yongshan. It is urgent to solve King Yongshan's matter first."
"Once the Yongshan King's matter is resolved, Sangzhou will be pacified. By then, Mr. Jinlin will be a lost dog. Even if there are some masters around him, it will be enough for the Demon Suppression Division to deal with him."
"There is another point that Wei Chen suspects. Young Master Jinlin has been cultivating rebels, but I feel that his ambition is not to fight for the Great Zhou Dynasty."
"His purpose seems to be simply to cause chaos to the Great Zhou Dynasty. I always feel that he has the support of important figures in the court or powerful sects behind him."
"Wei Chen hasn't figured out the real purpose yet."
The empress nodded: "This person has been cultivating rebels since my father was in power, and he has not stopped until now. She must have a purpose, and she is targeting the imperial city of Beijing and Zhou Dynasty."
Lu Ning nodded, he did not deny this.
After pondering, he said: "Your Majesty, can you tell me about the Sword Master in the Troubled Times?"
