Chapter 9: Conquering the East Sea

As soon as he looked, You Hun's information appeared in front of Li Qing.

Name: You Hun.

Identity: Military Supervisor of Dashang, Director General of the Five Armies.

Strength: Mortal

Magical weapon: None

Skill: None

Luck: -3

Immortal level evaluation: None.

Ever since Fei Zhong was torn into pieces by five horses yesterday, You Hun knew that his two brothers would probably die together.

As expected, as soon as the king sent out the signal that he would no longer favor Daji, everyone in the court began to retaliate against him.

Fang Xiang is just a small pawn. The ones who take action must be big ministers like Bi Gan and Shang Rong.

His face was pale, and he was frightened to death by Li Qing's domineering attack. He knelt on the ground trembling and kowtowed, saying, "Your Majesty, I know I was wrong."

Li Qing suddenly laughed coldly, as if gritting his teeth. "You and Fei Zhong, I trust you so much! But you two! Used my trust to do evil everywhere!? One! Wanted to murder me! Framed the Queen! The other! Abused your power and bought and sold official positions!? What do you think my court is!?"

As Li Qing spoke, he slammed his palm on the table. The sound was like thunder, and the ministers were terrified. He stood up and shouted, "Is this your backyard?!"

"Your Majesty..."

You Hun was a traitor to begin with, how much courage did he have? He had already wet his pants and collapsed to the ground.

Li Qing waved his hand in disgust and said, "Drag him away and draw him into pieces. All the official positions he sold will be taken back, and his property will be confiscated."

"promise!"

Two guards immediately responded and dragged You Hun out of the Wanshou Hall.

"Ding! All the ministers are happy and their hearts are turning back. The luck of the Shang Dynasty has increased by two points."

As You Hun was killed, Li Qing heard the system's prompt sound.

Li Qing smiled calmly, then continued, "My dear ministers, do you have anything else to say?"

"Your Majesty, I have a memorial."

After You Hun was killed, all the ministers were naturally delighted, knowing that the king must have regained his former wisdom. So the various problems that had accumulated over the past few months naturally had to be reported and resolved!

Bigan stepped forward and shouted, "Your Majesty, the Flame Tribe of the Western Regions has rebelled. In the past five months, they have already captured Liaozhou, Mozhou, Jingzhou, and other six prefectures and eighteen counties."

Li Qing frowned and was about to speak, but Bigan did not stop and continued: "The barbarians in the Western Regions rebelled. In May, they were captured. They took over four counties and twelve prefectures, including Fengzhou, Linzhou, and Puzhou."

"The seventy-two princes of the North Sea have rebelled. Now, Grand Master Wen has gone to suppress them, but the seventy-two princes have colluded with the North Sea Mang Clan. The war is now at a stalemate, and Grand Master Wen cannot hold out for long."

"The sea creatures of the East China Sea are restless and determined to rebel. Your Majesty issued three decrees for rain years ago, but the sea creatures did not respond. Now, Yunzhou, Fangzhou, Jizhou, and other eight states and twenty-four counties are still suffering from severe drought."

"The South Sea aquatic creatures are restless and determined to rebel. Your Majesty ordered them to retreat the water twice before the New Year, but the North Sea aquatic creatures did not respond. Now, Tanzhou, Fenzhou, Yunzhou, and other four states and sixteen counties are still suffering from severe flooding."

"Beihai Tribe..."

"The people of the West Sea..."

"The Southern Arashi tribe is rebelling..."

"The Nanhuangta tribe is rebelling..."

“…”

Bigan burned two incense sticks in the hall!

Li Qing's expression was filled with surprise. "I haven't been to court for just five months. How could this happen?"

No wonder the Shang Dynasty, which had 800 princes, perished so easily.

That's one reason for the Western Zhou Dynasty, but there are enemies on all sides!

"Ever since Fei Zhong and You Hun plotted to make the King marry Daji and then force Su Hu to rebel, war has broken out across the land. Unfortunately, the King has ignored state affairs, so the situation has only gotten worse, right up to the present moment."

Bigan sighed and said in a deep voice.

Li Qing heard this and nodded slightly, saying, "It's my fault. My dear ministers, thank you for your hard work."

"Ding, the loyalty of the ministers has increased, and the national fortune has increased a little."

As soon as Li Qing finished speaking, he heard the system prompt sound in his ears.

At the same time, the ministers in the hall looked as if they were seeing the king for the first time, with expressions of disbelief in their eyes. But then, they all prostrated themselves, shouting, "We are here to share the country's worries! This is our duty!"

Li Qing immediately smiled and waved his hand, saying, "Everyone, please stand up."

After he finished speaking, he straightened his body, his expression returning to its calm state. He said calmly, "With Grand Tutor Wen in charge of the North Sea, even though there have been minor setbacks, they will definitely counterattack. As for the Western Regions and the Southern Wilderness, the foreign tribes rebel every year, robbing and fleeing. This year will be no exception. So let them be for now. Let the local county governors resist for a few days. The army will arrive soon!"

At this point, Li Qing's eyes flashed with coldness as he said, "How dare a small sea creature like you disobey my orders? It hasn't rained for several months, so the water will recede!"

"Humph! Even though the two aquatic tribes of the East Sea and the South Sea were named Dragon Kings by the Emperor of Heaven, how dare they really think of themselves as the kings of their respective regions?!"

All the ministers were loyal, and what Li Qing said at this moment immediately resonated with them. The prime minister sneered and said with a murderous look on his face.

"That's right, even if you're the king, you have to obey the orders of His Majesty, the Emperor! They're simply courting death!"

Huang Feihu sneered, then stepped out of the group, bowed, and shouted, "Your Majesty! I beg your command! Lead the army to the East China Sea! We must capture the head of Ao Guang, the Dragon King of the East China Sea! To intimidate all the evildoers in the world!"

"I wish to accompany King Wucheng!"

Fang Bi stepped out.

"I am willing to go too!"

Another man strode out, wearing black armor, like a demon.

Li Qing took a look and immediately showed joy.
