Huangfu Hao and his envoys left the Beast Imperial City quietly. He was very satisfied with the trip and had gained a lot. Needless to say, leaving Huangfu Ziyan in the Chu Palace was the happiest thing for him.
He was very confident that with Huangfu Ziyan's methods, he would be able to confuse Emperor Chu so much that he would not obey her.
The alliance between the Huanyun Empire and the Chu State was indeed full of sincerity, but the calculations in Huangfu Hao and Huangfu Ziyan's hearts were also true, but was it true that the Chu Emperor would go into chaos for a woman as they suspected?
Obviously, they thought too much. Some women were very important to Emperor Chu, and he would risk life and death for them, but some women were just playthings.
Being a woman of Emperor Chu is not that simple, and Huangfu Ziyan's beauty will not make Emperor Chu forget everything.
at this time.
Huangfu Ziyan was severely punished by Emperor Chu and had a night of love. Originally, Huangfu Ziyan thought that she could use all the skills to control Emperor Chu and make him completely indulge in his gentle country.
But she didn't know Emperor Chu's methods. After one night, Huangfu Ziyan found that her cultivation was completely imprisoned, and she was now just like an ordinary person.
Huangfu Ziyan is not the only woman next to Emperor Chu who has a naturally charming body. Fei Ling'er's charming body skills are far more powerful than those of Huangfu Ziyan. If you want to be careful in front of Emperor Chu, you are simply asking for death.
road.
His cultivation was imprisoned by Emperor Chu, which was considered a small punishment but a big warning. At the same time, Fei Ling'er, Diao Chan, and Wang Zhaojun were asked to come to Nuange to train Huangfu Ziyan and let her know the rules of the Beast Palace.
at this time.
Emperor Chu was already out of the Nuan Pavilion and began to review the memorials from various places. Some time ago, due to the snowstorm, many memorials were put on hold and were only sent to the Beast Palace recently.
Most of the memorials were included in Zhongshu Ling and had already been processed by Fang Xuanling and Liu Bowen. The memorials handed over to the Emperor of Chu were all related to the long-term development of various places.
Emperor Chu was immersed in reviewing the memorials. Unknowingly, three hours passed. Suddenly, the cry of black crows came from outside the Nuan Pavilion. Emperor Chu put the imperial pen on the inkstone and suddenly raised his head to look at the entrance of the palace.
A little while.
Xiao Guizi pushed open the door of the palace, walked quickly to the wind, raised his hand and handed the letter sent by the black crow to Emperor Chu. Just when Emperor Chu was about to take the letter, he only felt that the world was spinning, and he staggered, and his figure almost hit the ground.
On the screen behind.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, the teapot on the wooden table fell to the ground, and water splashed everywhere. Emperor Chu forced himself to steady himself and walked quickly outside the Nuan Pavilion.
Emperor Chu's figure swayed and he looked toward the southeast, holding his breath and concentrating. After a while, he came back to his senses and slowly opened the letter from the Black Crow Dead Soldier in his hand.
"There is no treasure in the southeast!"
There were only six short words in the letter. Emperor Chu looked away and a smile appeared on his lips. Now he was very sure that what happened in the southeastern Northern Song Dynasty was an earthquake.
From the earthquake that just came, we can conclude that the power of this earthquake is not small at all. I believe that the Northern Song Dynasty Empire will be completely destroyed.
a long time.
After the shock completely disappeared, Emperor Chu quickly returned to Nuange, hurriedly found the imperial pen from the ground, began to write quickly, and ordered Xiao Guizi to pass the edict to the Black Crow Dead Soldiers.
Less than an hour after Xiao Guizi left Nuange, hundreds of civil and military officials gathered outside the Imperial Study Room, including Zhang Heng and Shen Kuo.
In the study room where Emperor Chu moved to the throne, all the officials had expressions of astonishment on their faces. It was obvious that they did not know what was going on with the shock that had just occurred. Only a few of them, Jiang Shang, Zhang Liang, Zhang Heng, and Shen Kuo, looked calm and composed. , a charming and indifferent look.
"Your Majesty, Wei Chen's prediction has come true. There really is a huge underground earthquake in the southeast!"
"Zhang Aiqing, this is a great achievement for you, I must reward you well!"
"Fortunately, I took precautions beforehand. I have already ordered the Duke of Ming Dynasty to stock up on food and grass in various cities in Shunming County. The underground shaking occurred in the southeast, and the turmoil could be felt so clearly in the Beast Imperial City. The Northern Song Dynasty Empire happened to be in The ground is shaking just above. Just think about what the Northern Song Empire will be like now."
The two emperors of Chu knew very well that the disasters caused by earthquakes were unstoppable by manpower. Although he had not visited the Northern Song Dynasty in person, he knew what the scene would be like after the earthquake.
Mountains of corpses and seas of blood, families destroyed and people perished, but those who were lucky enough to survive were all God's blessings.
"Xiao Guizi, immediately send an order to Shen Wansan to go to Shunming County in person to assist the Duke of Ming in sending grain, grass and baggage to the Northern Song Dynasty Empire!"
"Your Majesty, the Northern Song Dynasty Empire absolutely refuses to surrender to Wu Chu. Why did Your Majesty still send Lord Shen to escort the food, grass and baggage?"
"Xuan Ling, one side is in trouble and all sides are supporting me. The Emperor of the Northern Song Dynasty refused to surrender to me, but the people are innocent. The huge earthquake in the ground left their families dead and homeless. The Emperor of the Northern Song Dynasty is probably too busy to take care of himself. He has no time to worry about the lives and deaths of the people. ."
"I have sent an order to the Duke of Ming Dynasty that all the refugees who fled from the Northern Song Dynasty Empire should be resettled in the major cities. No one can be given up."
"Xing Guogong Di Renjie has listened to the order and ordered you to lead the Jinyi Guards, escort the Divine Doctor Hua, and Xiaoyao Yaozun to Shunming County together, and do your best to treat all the refugees!"
Emperor Chu's majestic voice spread, and Jiang Shang, Zhang Liang, and Liu Bowen nodded one after another. They just smiled and said nothing about Emperor Chu's proposal of support from all directions if one side was in trouble.
The Northern Song Dynasty suffered from this natural disaster and its national power was seriously damaged. It can be said that the country is deprived of its generals. This move by Emperor Chu could unknowingly win over the hearts and minds of the people of the Northern Song Empire. Even if the Emperor of the Northern Song Dynasty makes a comeback in the future, without the support of the people, he will just be alone. .
The ministers were ordered to leave, leaving only Zhang Heng, Shen Kuo, Jiang Shang, Zhang Liang, Liu Bowen and Zhuge Liang behind.
"My lords, the new year is approaching and the year is coming to an end. I would like to recall all the generals from all over the country to the capital to celebrate together as a nation. I would like to thank God for his care for Chu. This year, Chu has been blessed with smooth weather and peace and prosperity for the country and the people."
"Your Majesty, the countries below are still eyeing you and cannot relax yet. Therefore, the generals from all over the country cannot go back on the capital."
"However, in order to show the magnanimity of the emperor's favor, Your Majesty can send people to deliver the rewards to the generals in various places in advance. This is the best of both worlds."
Liu Bowen bowed and saluted and said, and all the generals echoed his words, but Jiang Shang suddenly spoke and said: "Your Majesty, the Northern Song Dynasty Empire has suffered from natural disasters and there is no longer any threat. After the end of the year, Your Majesty should unify the third-rank empire in the shortest possible time."
"After that, you can gather soldiers and horses from all over the country to build the Protectorate City in all directions. This is the blueprint drawn by Wei Chen, Zifang, Kong Ming, and Fengxiao. Your Majesty can take a look at it."
"Build a garrison city?"
"Your Majesty, it is euphemistically called the Protectorate City, but it is actually the protection of the four borders. Once the construction of the city is completed, Your Majesty can reward the city lord under his command, and one person will guard one side. This will allow for better management of the three armies, and at the same time, the city can be guarded by one person. All counties and cities were merged."
"Right now, our Chu territory stretches for tens of thousands of miles, and there are countless large and small cities. Without a clear management system, it will fall into chaos sooner or later. The construction of the Protectorate City can completely eliminate this crisis." (To be continued)
