"This is something very unusual. Are you sure it was done by Qi Peng from Dongwu?"

If this is true, then this person cannot be trusted in the future or until the end.

Not only can it not be trusted, it must be avoided.

"Sure."

The man from the Grand Council nodded in confirmation. This was more than confirmation; it was a set-in-stone fact. How could it possibly be false? Besides, the Grand Council hadn't been shaken for years, so how could it be shaken by Chao Xi's words?

"Your Majesty, the people from the Evil House have arrived."

"Please come in."

There were three or two people who came in first. Su Xi and Su Lie from the Evil Mansion were standing side by side, and behind them was Feng Qingsi, the eldest daughter of the Feng family, who was also considered the legitimate daughter.

"The Feng family is about to unite with other clans in rebellion. You, Feng Qingsi, are aware of this. To be honest, if they truly rebel, all three clans will be exterminated, and you will be implicated as well!"

"Your Majesty...I have no other options."

She has voluntarily separated from the Feng family, and now her name no longer appears in the Feng family genealogy.

But she would not easily think that if the Feng family was in trouble, she would not be implicated, and she might be the scapegoat.

Why? She has been responsible for so many crimes over the years!

It was really heartbreaking. She didn't say a word when she came out, and even turned around to praise them. I'm afraid that if something really went wrong now, even if she was removed from the family tree, she would have to recover from it by then.

Then become a scapegoat.

Their actions have been seen through.

It's chilling from beginning to end.

"I just want to know if any of these six major families have any involvement from your Evil House. I also want to ask what happened to your Feng family that has become like this."

What happened... Haha, a group of people with the dream of rebellion wanted to capture several areas in a desperate manner, and then occupy the mountain and claim to be the king.

"What happened?... Perhaps he feels he's acting inappropriately and wants to attack more places in order to retreat. Besides, Your Majesty, have you noticed a problem?"

Although Zhao Xin had heard about it, he hadn't seen where the problem actually occurred. As long as the six major families didn't touch the core area, they would probably only touch the surrounding areas.

"They've already taken over Dongjun and Pingyuan County. Besides these two, I haven't heard of any other places."

To the south, on Cao Ziyu's side.

"Your Majesty, the Grand Council has probably been blinded. No one would dare to act rashly against General Zhennan's office. Even if someone did, they wouldn't be so brutal."

"Do you have any results?"

"Your Majesty, it's true. When we heard about the rebellion, our Evil House was the first to investigate. Although most of them died, it was still a benefit to be able to get the news."

"Just tell me what news you have."

Beating around the bush isn't their style either.

"I've discussed this with Cao Ziyu. Three of these six families are considered exceptionally brave and adept at fighting. I don't know why they believed Cao Ziyu's slander and became so bloodthirsty."

"Three major families, which three?"

"The Sun family, the Feng family, and the Zhu family, these three families are truly the best at charging forward."

But has anyone ever said that those who rush forward die the fastest?

"Who are the heads of the three major families?"

This person must know.

"Sun Yufeng, Feng Zhenjiang, and Zhu Qixun."

Although I don't know who these three are, they sound pretty impressive. But wasn't the head of the family I heard about in the mechanical creation called Zhu Chou?

"Do you know Zhu Chou?"

"I know him. He's a role model. I heard he's hailed as one of the Zhu family's ten great heroes. He was hung on the wall at such a young age for everyone to admire. He's also a master at creating mechanical devices, making him one of the greats!"

Wow, that's a pretty clear introduction.

"There's a mysterious machine next to those people. Do you recognize it?"

"know."

Although I don't know why this person keeps asking about the whereabouts of the Zhu family, even the head of the Zhu family doesn't know him, so I'd rather get to know this person this time.

Although Zhu Chou was very powerful, Zhu Qixun was not an extraordinary person.

"Then go on. No need to look at my expression."

"Isn't it Chen Mang? He was in this palace before, but I didn't see him now. How come Your Majesty is so forgetful nowadays that he forgot about this matter in the blink of an eye?"

“…”

"Whether that person has made any outstanding contributions, you are not talking nonsense. Of course I know that Chen Mang is the founder of Shen Ji Gui Ji, and his reputation is as great as the sky. Letting me take him in will also be considered as my reputation."

"Well, the predecessor of mechanical creations is the divine ghost machine. The reason why mechanical creations have been able to go on for so long is largely due to the divine ghost machine. After all, the divine ghost machine can be said to be the first explorer at the beginning of life."

The Divine Machine and the Ghost Machine can be considered a milestone.

If the mechanical device is fully developed, it would be like stepping on a giant to grab the moon.

"You're so famous, have you heard of my Heavenly Creations?"

Su Lie shut up.

I've heard of it, of course I haven't heard of it, the reason why mechanical creations are now sinking to the bottom of the water is because of this natural creation, and it is precisely because of this technology that the current era is far ahead of the previous decade, and it has made an indispensable contribution to this historical stage.

Not only Tiangong Kaiwu, but even its founder Zhao Xin has become a deity worshipped by various people.

"Your Majesty, if you say so, it only means that Your Majesty has become very famous. People from all over the country come to worship you, and you even have your own faith group."

Fan club?

How did he inexplicably become a Bodhisattva worshipped by people?

Wait, since it’s a belief, then this group of people will probably listen to whatever he says. If they all listen... then it’s easy.

"Can we gather them together?"

This time it was Su Lie's turn to be dumbfounded. No way, the emperor actually wanted to gather everyone together. What for? To collectively gather around Zhao Xin and pray to Buddha? Besides, this wasn't the question at all!

"Yes...but what are you doing, Your Majesty? Besides, summoning them doesn't seem to do us any good."

Moreover, it is not impossible that this group of people may steal something if they have bad hands.

"I am currently short of men and horses. Let's see how loyal they are to me."

He could train some men and horses, and also exploit their almost reverent attitude towards him. In the end, he could make a small profit, and as long as they won a battle for him, he could also give them some gifts.

It also gives them something to look forward to.

"Your Majesty, is this considered..."

"How could you possibly say such a thing? Your Majesty, how could you possibly do that? Besides, it's obvious that you're recruiting soldiers and giving them money and food. Your Majesty, aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning if you think that way?"

Su Lie pursed his lips, and was speechless to see that his sister was so "brave and warlike" now.

"Your Majesty, I'll let you know. As for whether it can be done...it all depends on luck."
