The appearance of the Netherworld forces in the Central Region is something Shen Zhao has to deal with whether he wants to or not.
Once the forces of the Nine Netherworlds are allowed to infiltrate the entire Central Region, Shen Zhao will face an even more dire situation than the previous nine incarnations.
Therefore, whatever the purpose, we must stop these beasts from infiltrating the Dragon Han Empire.
"But what should we do?"
Shen Zhao's mind raced, and he quickly devised several suitable plans.
However, upon careful implementation, numerous loopholes exist in the process, which cannot be remedied in a very short time.
Therefore, he quickly rejected the plans with those uncertainties and began to think about a more appropriate approach.
While pondering, Shen Zhao had already arrived at the gate of Prince Rui's mansion.
"Song Yu?"
Looking at the magnificent gate of the Prince's Mansion, Shen Zhao's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Since all the safest approaches are limited by time, let's just plan a big strategy."
Let all the hidden forces surface, then we can wipe them all out in one fell swoop!
With that thought in mind, he walked proudly toward the gate of the Prince's Mansion.
Inside the Prince's mansion, Song Yu lay casually on a grand chair, his chest and back exposed.
Two maids knelt before him, gently massaging his thighs, while the maids on either side fed him fruit and spirit wine from time to time.
Inside the hall, a group of beautifully dressed dancers were performing a captivating and erotic dance, a scene of extravagant luxury and decadence.
"Your Highness, there is a man outside the mansion who claims to be Chu Liuxiang requesting an audience. He says he owes Your Highness a favor and has come today to repay it."
Song Yu spat out the grape skins, waved for him to call the person in, and then continued to eat his melon while watching the performance in the hall.
When Shen Zhao arrived, Song Yu simply waved his hand and said, "I thought you had forgotten your promise to me. Tell me, how do you plan to repay my favor?"
Shen Zhao glanced around and then said, "Your Highness, are you sure you want me to tell you now?"
"What's so hard to say? In this palace, I am the true master."
Shen Zhao: "If I were to say that the Longhan Celestial Dynasty is currently on the verge of collapse, would Your Highness still be so carefree?"
Upon hearing this, the dancers and musicians stopped playing, and even Song Yu's maidservants immediately knelt down.
"How dare you, Chu Liuxiang! Is this all you came to me for? If you wish to die, I can grant your wish right now!"
Seeing that Song Yu was angry, Shen Zhao smiled slightly and unfolded his folding fan, gently waving it to himself.
Seeing that Shen Zhao remained calm, Song Yu waved his hand and said, "All of you, step back. Remember what you just heard and keep it to yourself."
"If I hear any rumors outside, I'll wipe out your whole family."
"yes."
The dancers, musicians, maids, and servants all withdrew.
"Someone, please have a seat."
Soon a servant brought Shen Zhao a chair made of spirit wood.
"Thank you, Your Highness."
After Shen Zhao sat down, Song Yu asked directly, "Make your words clearer, or I guarantee you won't leave this palace unscathed."
"Your Highness, are you aware of the strange phenomena that occurred early this morning?"
"It's spread throughout the entire capital, how could anyone not know?"
"Since you know this, Your Highness should understand what the death of a foreign emperor within the Central Region means for the Dragon-Han Heavenly Dynasty?"
"Ha! My Dragon Han Heavenly Dynasty boasts millions of armored soldiers, over a billion citizens, seventy-two vassal states, and countless powerful cultivators within its borders. Who in the world can rival us?"
"If what Your Highness describes is true, then the power of the Dragon Han Celestial Dynasty will be invincible. But Your Highness, don't forget..."
The Longhan Celestial Dynasty's current state is entirely due to the Empress's diligent and effective governance. If the Empress's prestige is damaged, will all of this still exist?
"What exactly are you trying to say?"
"Do you know what it means for a foreign emperor to die within the borders of the Dragon Han Celestial Dynasty? It means a bloody storm is about to break out, and it's inevitable."
Seven days later, the Empress will be married. Attending will be dignitaries from various countries. If they suddenly ask her about the Emperor's death, how will she respond?
"Do you think my elder sister is one of those ordinary women who can be stumped by such a small matter?"
So what if they want to cause trouble? My elder sister is invincible; these blind fools who dare to step forward will only invite humiliation.
"Your Highness, take my advice. Nothing is absolute. You are a smart man, so there's no need to pretend to be confused now."
If your elder sister encounters a problem she can't solve, as her closest person, you should step forward without hesitation and help her resolve these troubles.
Song Yu frowned: "Is there really someone who wants to harm our dynasty and my imperial sister?"
Shen Zhao nodded: "Otherwise, do you think I would bother to flirt with the prince for no reason?"
"What rumors did you hear?"
"Before I answer Your Highness's question, I must understand what price Your Highness is willing to pay for the Empress, or rather, for the foundation laid by your elder sister."
Song Yu frowned, stood up and said, "Outsiders say that my elder sister is a tyrant who indiscriminately kills innocent people."
As her relative, I am fully aware that everything my elder sister has done is for the sake of the Longhan Celestial Dynasty.
Throughout her inheritance, she has endured endless slander from historians and scholars.
She suffered countless injustices; if it weren't for her extraordinary cultivation throughout her life, the throne would have been overthrown countless times.
Even today, our royal family still cannot forgive the past when our elder sister murdered the emperor and her brother to usurp the throne.
But I know that she has lived her whole life in guilt and self-blame.
