Chapter 75: The domestic pressure is peaceful, and the overseas villains go out
Last night.
Zhuang Ming sent thirteen letters.
From the emperor down to the generals.
They are all figures who control the military power of the Dongsheng Dynasty.
It looks like a request for peace, but it is actually a threat.
The emperor, the supreme emperor in the world, seemed extremely angry.
As for the military generals, they were born in the military and were very bloody, and most of them were extremely angry.
They never faced the dragon directly, they only heard about an evil beast that defeated more than 20,000 Zhennan troops.
Even though I find it incredible, I just feel that the Zhennan Army is too useless.
No matter how powerful the beasts in the world are, they are stronger than a hundred tigers or a thousand wolves, so what?
They realize that the large army under their command is invincible in every attack and they cannot win any battle. When the army sweeps across them, no evil beast in the world can resist them wherever the sharp blade points.
Therefore, most of them were furious and asked to fight against Huai'an!
Only a few generals and some civil servants persuaded the emperor to think twice before acting.
After all, Zhuang Ming has this magical power, so it may be best to negotiate peace.
However, the courtiers who remonstrated were all imprisoned by the furious emperor.
"Gather all the troops and prepare to send troops to Huai'an."
The emperor stood up and said again: "Tonight, General Chen will enter the palace, take command of the imperial army, and personally guard my palace, taking extra precautions."
——
At night.
The emperor's palace is heavily guarded.
Forbidden soldiers will be sent several times more.
But the emperor still had trouble sleeping and eating.
He was restless and sleepless, and finally sighed and sat on the dragon bed.
He thought about the various political affairs of the Dongsheng Dynasty in recent times, but more importantly, he was still thinking about how the disabled businessman in Huai'an could possess the divine power of the dragon?
My thoughts were in turmoil and I had no sleep all night.
There was silence all night.
Until the sky gradually turns white.
Still no movement.
The emperor let out a long breath, and his heart fell to the ground.
He stood up, but felt his head was dizzy, and he really wanted to give orders.
However, his body suddenly stiffened and he turned around suddenly.
On the dragon bed, behind where he originally sat cross-legged, there was a letter lying quietly.
Last night, he sat cross-legged all night.
But at some point, the letter was placed behind him.
"this……"
The emperor felt weak all over and slowly sat down, his face becoming extremely pale.
Maybe it's not just him, the ninety-five-year-old man.
The generals and officials in power of the Dongsheng Dynasty may have received such letters again.
Is this person really a god?
It can control dragons and resist an army of millions, and is extremely fierce.
He could also be silent, in the inner courtyard of the palace, among thousands of soldiers, coming and going freely, like ghosts and ghosts.
Is this person able to take the head of this ninety-five-year-old man in a single thought?
In other words... using this method, you can't kill people, you can only send messages?
Just thinking about it.
Boom!
The dragon bed suddenly collapsed!
The emperor said nothing, closed his eyes, and remained speechless for a long time.
A moment passed.
Suddenly someone stumbled over to report.
"Your Majesty, it's not good!"
"Treasury...Treasury..."
——
Huai'an.
Zhongwang Mountain.
Qianlong Villa.
"Sir, since the defeat of the Zhennan Army, there has been no movement in the capital."
Liu He came to report and said: "I heard that yesterday, the emperor issued an order to mobilize troops and generals to send troops to Huai'an, but they still have not moved, which is extremely strange..."
Zhuang Ming waved his hand slightly and said: "The army will not come."
Liu He was surprised and asked: "He's not coming?"
Zhuang Ming said calmly: "For two consecutive nights, I sent letters to the emperor and all the generals, and took a trip to the national treasury. I got a lot of medicinal materials, rare and exotic objects, sacred stones and jade. The national treasury is really rich.
"
He is not short of money, but he lacks real talents.
After becoming a dragon, it is extremely powerful, but if it wants to continue to grow, ordinary treasures in the mortal world and the spiritual energy contained in them are no longer enough.
"Deliver a message?"
Liu He was also quick in thinking, and he suddenly became enlightened and whispered: "Young master asked Lord Long to threaten the emperor?"
Zhuang Ming smiled and said: "For me, it's just a matter of suing for peace. For two consecutive nights, I used a dragon to sneak into the palace and deliver a message to the emperor. On the first day, they might have been furious. On the second day, they stepped up their guard and the guards were tight.
I can come and go as I please, and the Imperial Guard is still unable to detect me."
"To the emperor, this is both sincerity and a threat."
"To me, no matter how high his status or status, he is still an ordinary person, he is still a flesh and blood body, and he is still an ant that can be killed easily."
"The emperor knows in his heart that I can kill him, the supreme human being, at any time, so he will definitely not dare to be my enemy again."
"Not only him, but also the generals who control the army."
"As long as they don't find a way to save their lives, they won't dare to take any action."
Zhuang Ming is not a kind-hearted person.
If the army were to launch today, within two hours, the emperor and the leading generals would all be dead.
From then on, the Dongsheng Dynasty will change its dynasty.
"Son..."
Liu He hesitated for a moment, hesitated to speak, but finally said: "We have the Dragon Lord to help us, and our destiny has been fulfilled. Why should we continue to be attached to the Dongsheng Dynasty and run our business? With the power of the Dragon Lord, we can shock the world.
Can conquer the capital and seize the kingship of the world..."
Zhuang Ming raised his hand slightly and said softly: "It won't be time."
Hearing this, Liu He showed a strange expression.
Zhuang Ming slowly said: "The power of a dragon can defeat thousands of armies and horses. It is not difficult to conquer the world. However, to conquer the world, it is not just about strong soldiers and horses... It is easy to win the world, but difficult to defend it."
"Changing dynasties will inevitably lead to loss of life and deprivation of life for the people."
"When dynasties change, all kinds of wastes are waiting to be revitalized."
"Besides, there are many wise men in the imperial court. It would be quite complicated to seize power."
"It is not easy to manage a business, and it is even more difficult to manage the world."
"What's more, now, I only seek wealth, hunt for treasures, and obtain things. Does the imperial court dare to restrict me?"
"From a certain level, our Zhuang Company is now above the government."
He sighed and said: "In peaceful and prosperous times, it is easy to do business... Although in the long run, it is naturally best to seize power, but now the momentum is very good, so there is no need to move for the time being."
Liu He understood and saluted, "I understand."
Young Master said, don't move for now.
Zhuang Ming looked calm.
He said a lot, but the real reason lies in gathering at the Holy Mountain.
Gather on the Holy Mountain and kill all the practitioners in this world, and no outside practitioners will be allowed to set foot on it.
Now, his dragon body has become a great demon body, which is comparable to the realm of golden elixir and cannot be tolerated by Jusheng Mountain.
But after all, he was a disciple of Jusheng Mountain, so he was not in danger of being killed.
But what would be the consequences if we use the power of dragons and transcendent worldly cultivation to conquer the world, control the Dongsheng Dynasty, and control the secular world in the holy mountain and blessed land?
What was the original intention of Jushengshan to "kill all the practitioners in this world"?
If he really acts like this, will he violate the foundation of Jushengshan?
He doesn't know.
So he didn't dare to gamble.
"That's it for now."
Zhuang Ming said: "How's it going with King Chen?"
Liu He responded in a low voice: "I cut him thirty-seven times and cut off thirty-seven pieces of flesh. He was worse off than dead and kept begging for mercy. Then I followed your instructions and asked him about the origin of the sacred stone, and he
It was easy to recruit.”
Zhuang Ming asked: "What is the origin of the sacred stone?"
Liu He responded: "Coming from overseas, King Chen spent a lot of money and a lot of energy, but he actually doesn't know much about it."
Zhuang Ming frowned.
Liu He whispered: "After interrogation, it has been generally confirmed that what King Chen said is true, but there may be some concealment, and I will try to trick him again."
Zhuang Ming nodded, thinking a little.
He couldn't help but think of those eighteen words again in his mind.
The sky weeps blood, the king dies, the demons cause chaos, the soul-gathering bell rings, and the holy palace collapses.
That sacred stone is the True Dragon's Eye.
The real dragon seemed to have experienced a great catastrophe of overturning.
But exactly how, is not clear.
"Where is King Chen?"
"A total of eighty-nine knives were tortured. I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to hold on anymore, so I was trying to save him."
"Um."
——
The vast sea.
On the big ship.
Regarding the changes in the Dongsheng Dynasty, news about the Dongsheng Dynasty has spread throughout the sixteen prefectures of Huai'an over time, and even began to spread about the Dongsheng Dynasty.
Some people even went to sea and spread the news overseas.
More than 20,000 elite troops besieged a Qianlong Villa. As a result, a powerful and invulnerable dragon emerged, causing all 20,000 elite troops to flee.
There are even rumors that all 20,000 troops have been destroyed.
This statement was extremely enthusiastic and spread widely.
In the Dongsheng Dynasty, the government tried its best to exert pressure, but few people talked about the dragon incident.
Many people just thought it was a hidden army in Qianlong Villa, openly rebelled and drove back the Zhennan Army.
Only some people have doubts about the dragon thing.
There are only a few people who truly believe in this matter.
But the story is always full of legend.
Even if there are no facts about dragons, some people will inevitably stretch it and add some exciting stories... Moreover, this matter is actually true.
Therefore, the story about the dragon's troubled times is even more legendary and spread even more enthusiastically.
"It's hard to say whether there is a dragon or not, but Mr. Thirteen is really awesome."
"With a disability in both legs, he founded such a large trading company in six years and still accumulated the confidence to rebel. He is truly a man."
"If it weren't for King Chen, he might have been saving up secretly. In a few years, the court might not be able to do anything to him."
"Now the imperial court is bound to send out a large army, and I'm afraid it will be a disaster."
"Who knows? I heard that this man is very resourceful and dares to openly rebel. Maybe he really feels that he has the power to fight against the imperial court, and maybe he wants to separate the world."
"It's just... that Qianlong Villa said that a dragon appeared. Is it true or false?"
"I heard rumors that they should be true, but no one has ever seen a dragon, so who knows?"
On the big ship, there were many people talking.
When they talked about it, they felt it was full of legend and interesting to talk about.
But at this moment, a strong wind suddenly rose and the waves surged.
The big ship suddenly became unstable and rocked.
The people on the boat suddenly changed their expressions because something had happened for some unknown reason.
But at this moment, a person suddenly appeared on the waves ahead.
I saw this man with his hands behind his back, stepping on the waves, looking down.
As this person arrived, the waves stopped.
The ship stabilized.
The people on the ship were still frightened.
When some people saw the people on the wave, their expressions changed drastically, and they quickly prostrated themselves and called them immortals.
Everyone in the boat bowed down and called the Immortal one after another, thanking the Immortal for saving his life.
"Is the dragon you are talking about true?"
The man on the wave, with a middle-aged appearance and a plain expression, responded like this.
The captain of the ship hurriedly responded: "Reporting to the Immortal, this is a matter within the Dongsheng Dynasty. It happened not long ago... It is said that a dragon appeared and defeated the army."
The middle-aged man's eyes narrowed slightly and asked: "Dongsheng Dynasty? Which direction?"
The captain of the ship said respectfully: "Looking from here, about five thousand miles to the southwest, is the Dongsheng Dynasty."
The middle-aged man nodded, then turned and left.
The wave that had stopped surged again, rising dozens of feet.
Rumble!
The big ship was swept by the waves and sank into the sea.
More than three hundred people, including old, weak, women and children, were all buried at the bottom of the sea without even being able to scream.
The middle-aged man stands with his hands behind his back and steps on the wave.
He looked southwest.
"Dragon?"
A smile appeared on the middle-aged man's lips.
Dragon genus is extremely rare in the world.
If you can get a dragon as a mount, you will be very happy.
Even if it cannot be subdued, the dragon is full of treasures, whether it is claws, teeth, scales, flesh and blood, or meridians, they are all rare in this world.
If you kill a dragon, you can at least refine a furnace of precious medicine and then a set of magical weapons.
