Tianbi Divine Kingdom, Kyoto Imperial Palace
"Rebellious son, rebellious son, all rebellious sons..."
The Divine Kingdom Emperor Li Si walked all the way back to the harem from the outer court, cursing all the way. A group of palace maids and eunuchs were silent, fearing that the emperor would vent his anger on them. Their status was not much different from that of slaves in the outside world, and the emperor could take their lives with a word.
"What's wrong with the emperor today? Why are you so angry?"
Concubine Yu came over, put down the soup bowl in her hand, walked around the emperor, and gently rubbed Li Si's temples with both hands. Li Si felt a little relaxed.
"It's still those rebellious sons who make trouble every day. Today they falsely accused each other. The third son said that the prince violated the rules and was suspected of overstepping the boundaries. The fifth son said that the third son embezzled military pay. The prince said, oh, let me stop talking. I'm upset."
"Your Majesty, don't worry too much. The princes are still young and are just joking."
"They are just joking. The sons combined are older than me. They are still joking. I'm not dead yet, but they are doing this. What if I die?" "
Your Majesty, you can't say this casually. If you die, my end will not be far away."
"What do you mean? Who is trying to harm you?"
"Your Majesty, you don't know. The outside world calls me a witch. They say that I bewitched Your Majesty. Someone told me that when Your Majesty dies, I will be buried with him."
"Who, who said that? I will destroy his entire family."
"Your Majesty, people outside are saying that. It's not that I don't want to accompany Your Majesty, but what will happen to my child if I leave? I come from a farming family, and my parents and brothers are all farmers..."
Concubine Yu's eyes were filled with tears, and she lowered her head to look at her slightly bulging belly. Li Si followed Concubine Yu's gaze and looked at the unborn child, his worries growing stronger.
"Concubine Yu, don't worry, as long as I'm here, no one can hurt you."
"Your Majesty, what if you go?"
"Ah, this..."
"So Your Majesty must let the alchemist refine the elixir, and I want to stay with Your Majesty all the time."
"Concubine Yu, don't worry, the elixir will definitely be refined."
At this moment, Li Si made up his mind that no matter what the cost, he would refine the elixir, and he would live together with his beloved concubine.
"Your Majesty, it is my great blessing to meet you"
"Okay, okay, stop crying, I have to go deal with those rebellious children"
"Your Majesty, I have learned a few new cooking skills recently, you accompany me, I will make you delicious food"
"My beloved concubine, those..."
"Your Majesty, children are just making trouble because someone is backing them up, wouldn't it be better to give those who support them a beating?"
Yu Fei acted coquettishly to Li Si, maybe the speaker was unintentional, but the listener was intentional. Li Si's eyes flashed, as if he suddenly understood. Those rebellious children acted recklessly, weren't they just because someone was backing them up? Without their support, would they dare to disobey him like this?

"The family background is really rich. If it were an ordinary mortal country, it would have been destroyed long ago."
In the outer city of Kyoto, Lin Jiang looked at the mortal army passing by and thought to himself that this army was going to quell the rebellion, and in half a year, several such armies had been sent out.
The system of the Kingdom of God is not yet at the end of its life, and its efficiency is still good. Of course, the most important thing is that it has a rich family background. This is not an ordinary mortal country. With the presence of the formation spirit, the Kingdom of God has good weather every year, and has accumulated a huge family background, and can continue to toss.
"Brother Xiao, the leader wants to see you,"
someone came from behind and said to Lin Jiang.
"I'll go now,"
Lin Jiang nodded, and soon came to Zhou Huaiying's house.
"Xiao Yi greets the leader."
"Xiao Yi, there is no need to be polite. Take a seat."
"Leader called Xiao Yi here. What's the matter?"
"No big deal. The Jade Concubine in the palace has sent a message. The word has been passed on that the emperor will take action against the people behind the princes. Should we redouble our efforts ?"
"No need, leader. We won't get involved in this matter. The struggle for imperial power has always been cruel. They will fight each other. We should hide our bodies now and watch them fight each other."
"Don't we need to guide them?"
"No need. Just let them fight each other. We have already lit the fire. The fire is already big and will burn by itself. We should be on guard against the formation spirits now."
Lin Jiang said. Those rebellious ideas have become the most powerful weapon. Once they see the light, they will no longer endure the darkness.
"You're right. It seems that the formation spirit has been acting strange over the past few years. It seems that it has not been watching us."
"Alliance leader, my cultivation is low and I can't feel it. Is it the same for other elders?"
"They said so too. Maybe it's because of the fight between Lin Batian and Chen Zheng. But it's good that way. Thanks to them for restraining the formation spirit, otherwise we can't plan at all."
Zhou Huaiying said. The formation spirit is equivalent to the way of heaven in the kingdom of God. Weak mortals may not pay attention to it. It's like when we look at an ant nest. One or two ants have some tricks that are difficult to distinguish, but if there are ants that are several times larger than other ants, we can notice them. And they are those big ants.
"Alliance leader, I think we should let them decide the winner as soon as possible, so that we can have the strength to fight against the formation spirit together."
"No, we don't interfere in their affairs."
Zhou Huaiying shook his head. He knew that Lin Jiang and Lin Batian had an old relationship, but he would not easily interfere in their grievances.
"Alliance leader, it is not appropriate to sit back and watch the two tigers fight. If they fight, both will suffer. The one who benefits is the formation spirit, not us. If they are dealt with by the formation spirit and turn to deal with us, it will be difficult to deal
with it." "You have a point. I will think about it."
"Yes, Alliance leader,"
Lin Jiang said. He has spoken for Lin Batian many times, but Zhou Huaiying and others are also old foxes and will not be easily persuaded by him. Lin Jiang stopped when he saw the good.
"Well, you continue to plan the affairs of the Divine Kingdom Court. The Divine Kingdom is still in place now. Use him up as soon as possible."
"Yes, Alliance leader, I will find a way to speed up."
"Go."
"Thank you, Alliance leader,"
Lin Jiang bowed and then left Zhou Huaiying's house.
Lin Jiang returned to his home. Now he has changed his external identity. Now he is the owner of a business in Kyoto City. He has a big business, so many people come in and out of his house every day to cover his identity.
Not long after, some backbones of the Immortal Alliance came to Lin Jiang's mansion to report to Lin Jiang on the progress of various plans.
"The foundation of the Kingdom of God is still very strong. In order not to be reduced, the princes and dukes guarding various places have taken out a lot of effort to expand the army. In order to resist the slogans of the rebels, they have even reduced the oppression of civilians and slaves. The rebels in various places are now in a very difficult situation, and the uprising has a tendency to be extinguished."
After several people made reports, someone concluded that now those princes are fighting harder than the court of the Kingdom of God to maintain their power, and the rebels can't stand it.
"Drunk on the lap of a beauty, awake in power, these princes and dukes have tasted the taste of power, and they will definitely not give up, but the facts will not change according to their will."
Lin Jiang nodded. He had expected this a long time ago. The taste of power is very wonderful. Apart from anything else, Lin Jiang now has a lot of people in his hands. In the past ten years, he has been constantly making plans. How many big figures in the Kingdom of God have been played in his hands, this is also a kind of power. If his mind is not so firm, he will also be addicted to it.
"Senior Xiao, what should we do? Almost all the warriors we have trained have been sent out. If we send out more people, we will have to use cultivators. The Kingdom of God is extremely vigilant against us and must not act rashly."
"What's the difficulty in handling this matter?"
"Please give me some advice, senior."
"Mobilize our people in the court to advise the emperor, saying that the war is intense and let the court increase taxes in various places and withhold the pay of the prince's army, so that the court troops can guard against the prince's army."
"Senior, will the court agree to such a stupid move?" "
Of course it will. The court wants the prince and the rebels to suffer losses on both sides, and then deal with them together, rather than letting the prince win and boosting their prestige. No matter how stupid the move is, it is a good strategy for them,"
said Lin Jiang. The interests are different. It is a stupid move for the prince, but for the court, it is natural. Moreover, if an official makes this suggestion, they can help. All these years are not in vain. There are many people in the court who are trained by them, and some are controlled by them.
"Yes, then let's make arrangements according to what our predecessors said."
"Go ahead, don't be afraid of stupid moves. Stupid moves also depend on the people. The intensity of the war is not enough now, let's add fuel to the fire."
Lin Jiang nodded. He had no say on when the war would stop. He was just an executive, and the real decision was made by Zhou Huaiying and others.
