"I ask you, esteemed individuals, would you be willing to support such a warmongering and warlike emperor as the ruler of the Central Region?"
In another teahouse, several disciples of aristocratic families were engaged in lively discussions, listing the Empress's crimes.
It presents an outrageous attitude that prioritizes the dignity of ordinary people over the rise of a great power.
Scene after scene unfolded throughout the capital, yet the Imperial Guards responsible for maintaining order in the capital turned a blind eye to it, with no one taking any action.
Inside the Weiyang Palace, Xuanhao Hongye was unaware that the Xiongnu army had been turned against them by Shen Zhao. He was focused on devising a way to deal with Shen Zhao and Song Yanran.
Lin Feng, standing to the side, hunched over and said humbly, "Your Majesty, Song Yanran is now a pariah, her reputation among the people is far worse than before."
Your Majesty should seize this opportunity to issue a decree to the world, and together with the seventy-two vassal states, divide the territory of Longhan.
However, Xuan Hao Hongye didn't even glance at Lin Feng, but stared at the huge map of the Dragon-Han territory in front of the screen, remaining silent.
After a long silence, he replied in a deep voice, "As long as Song Yanran lives, I will not be at peace."
"I ask you, how did you handle the task of investigating Song Yanran and Shen Zhao's whereabouts?"
Lin Feng: "The investigation is still ongoing. Please wait patiently, Your Majesty."
"Hmph, people only know that the Nine Netherworld has unfathomable depths, but now it can't even handle such a small matter. It's true that seeing it is not as good as hearing about it."
Lin Feng remained silent upon hearing this.
Although he has now joined the Nine Netherworld faction, it is a desperate measure for survival.
If given the chance, he would definitely break free from the control of the Nine Netherworlds, and even use the Nine Netherworlds to achieve his own hegemony.
“Your Majesty, Venerable Haoyue is not as familiar with the terrain of the Nine Netherworld as Song Yanran, so it is reasonable that the search will take some time.”
"Is that so? To be honest, I somewhat regret cooperating with you."
You should all know how much Jiuyou contributed to this operation against Song Yanran.
If Jiuyou wants to use me to enter the Nine Realms of Immortal Martial Arts, he must show sufficient sincerity.
"What sincerity do you mean? Please tell us clearly, Your Majesty."
Xuan Hao Hongye's eyes turned cold: "To set up the Mandala Array, I need to borrow the power of the Nine Netherworlds. Go back and tell Venerable Haoyue."
"Making him summon all the hidden agents of the Nine Netherworlds within Yanhuang City to activate the formation together—that would be true sincerity."
"A mandala array?" Lin Feng frowned. "Does His Majesty intend to..."
"That's right, I will use the Mandala Array to completely annihilate Song Yanran!"
"But Jiuyou's identity is special; once it's exposed..."
"If it can't be done, the cooperation ends here. If Darba hadn't died..."
"I, the King, will not let a bunch of cowards help me. Whether you agree or not, let Venerable Haoyue give you his own answer."
Lin Feng pondered for a while, then cupped his hands and bowed: "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I believe Venerable Haoyue will agree."
