Chapter 414: Sensation in Four Countries
He will definitely create a peaceful and prosperous era, so that Yue'er will no longer have to suffer with him and will no longer have to live in fear.
Su Yue hugged him back: "Life is like this. It's impossible to have everything go as planned every day. Especially for those who sit in the highest position, there are more worries."
"Um."
Murong Li hummed sullenly, and then the two of them went their separate ways.
At the morning court of the Dongfeng Kingdom, the Emperor of Dongfeng, having changed his previous decadence, beamed with joy. He handed a note to the eunuch beside him and said, "Take this and show it to the ministers. I have great news, and we, the emperor and our ministers, will share it together."
Emperor Dong Feng was so happy that he could not help himself. He did not expect such news. Murong Li could just wait to die. If he was not pressed into the ground and made sure that he would never get up again, he would not be a human being.
The eunuch carefully took the note, quickly came to the hall, and gave it to Prince Rui first.
Prince Rui took the note suspiciously. What news made his father so happy? He immediately took a look at it. When he saw the content, his eyes widened in disbelief.
Murong Li raises corpse soldiers?
No wonder my father is so happy. If this shocking news cannot be spread, Murong Li will have no place to stand in the four countries.
He quickly turned around and passed the note to the person behind him.
After reading it, the person behind opened his mouth wide, laughed uncontrollably, and quickly passed the note to the next person.
Soon the note was circulated in the court. After everyone read it, the whole court was in an uproar. Some were filled with righteous indignation and cursed Murong Li for being a beast in human form and doing such a heartless and insane thing.
Some whispered.
"No wonder General Wu lost the battle. An army of over one hundred thousand was defeated silently by Murong Li. He even raised corpse soldiers. No wonder, no wonder!"
"That's right, even an iron man can't defeat those zombies, let alone our Dongfeng Nation's flesh and blood soldiers."
"Yes, yes. This kind of heartless thing must be spread out, so that everyone in the Southern Phoenix Kingdom and the Northern Phoenix Kingdom will know. It is best to gather the strength of our three countries and quickly destroy Murong Li. Otherwise, the fate that awaits us will definitely be that he will destroy us."
"These beasts should be attacked in large numbers and eliminated."
"Yes, destroy Murong Li and destroy Xifeng Kingdom!"
…
All kinds of indignant and righteous words came out of the ministers' mouths like they were free. If this was not the court, the ministers would probably have gone to bite Murong Li.
Dong Fenghuang felt very relieved when he saw this scene.
"Your Majesty, please spread this news quickly. It would be best if you could send someone to deliver this news to the Southern Phoenix Kingdom and the Northern Phoenix Kingdom. If you can gather the forces of the three kingdoms and destroy Murong Li, that would be the best."
When Prime Minister Yang saw this scene, he immediately knelt down and reported to Emperor Dong Feng.
"No, spread the news first and let people from other countries take the lead."
Emperor Dongfeng waved his hand and said gloomily that if Dongfeng wanted to raise an army to attack Xifeng Kingdom, it no longer had the strength given its current economic capabilities. War required food and silver, and now the treasury was empty, what could it use to fight?
Therefore, the news could not be spread, and Nanfengyuan and Beifengguo were allowed to take the lead.
Also, the fact that Murong Li raised corpse soldiers has not been confirmed yet, so we cannot act rashly.
This piece of paper alone doesn't mean anything.
Once the news is released, there will be no need for the Dongfeng people to investigate, as someone will naturally investigate it thoroughly. At that time, they will not need to contact the other two countries, as the two countries will take the initiative to contact them. Only then will he have the initiative and the voice.
"Yes, Your Majesty is wise."
Prime Minister Yang immediately understood what Emperor Dong Feng meant, and he immediately shouted loudly.
"Your Majesty is wise."
"Your Majesty is wise."
…
After hearing this, the other ministers all knelt down and shouted.
They were only filled with righteous indignation and boastful, but they had forgotten the current strength of Dongfeng Country. After hearing what the emperor said, they finally came to their senses.
"Lord Yang, you will take care of this matter. Send the news to the two countries immediately. Don't forget to send it to the Western Phoenix Kingdom as well, so that the Western Phoenix Emperor will be happy."
Emperor Dong Feng gave the order immediately.
"Yes, I obey your command."
Prime Minister Yang accepted the order and curled up the corners of his lips. Let's see how Xifeng Kingdom and Murong Li will turn the tables this time.
"If you have the certificate, your request will be approved. If you don't, please leave the court." The eunuch's shrill voice sounded immediately.
"Farewell to the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!"
The ministers all came to see off Emperor Dong Feng respectfully.
Emperor Dong Feng walked out of the hall in a very good mood and walked towards the imperial study with relaxed steps.
After so many days, Emperor Dong Feng finally let out the anger in his heart. He felt much better now and even walked back to the imperial study by himself.
Three days later, the royal families of Nanfeng Kingdom and Beifeng Kingdom received the news at the same time. By the time they received the news, it had already spread among the people.
In an instant, people were in panic and calls for condemnation were heard everywhere.
Even the emperor of Xifeng Kingdom knew about it.
That night, Uncle Su was summoned to the palace and returned home very late.
Afterwards, the capital was filled with insults and calls for the emperor to recall Murong Li and give an explanation to the people of the world.
Of course, this kind of voice was manipulated by Murong Yi behind the scenes.
When he learned about this, he was happier than Emperor Dong Feng. He went straight into his secret room and laughed so hard that he couldn't straighten his back.
This was simply a piece of cake for him. He was still racking his brains to think of how to get rid of Murong Li, and then he was given such a big piece of news. If he didn't take the opportunity to kill Murong Li, he might as well slap himself to death.
This news also reached the border. The soldiers at Qingniu Pass were the first to not believe it and said that the person who spread the news was talking nonsense. They were the parties involved and knew exactly what happened. There were no corpse soldiers. If there really were corpse soldiers, Murong Li would have led his troops eastward to destroy the Dongfeng Kingdom and would not have allowed them to make trouble there.
However, regardless of whether the news was true or false, the Southern Feng Kingdom and the Northern Feng Kingdom still sent death squads to Qingniu Pass to investigate.
This matter can be said to be a big deal or a small matter. If this is just a rumor, it will only affect Murong Li's reputation. If it is true as the rumor says that he has raised hundreds of thousands of corpse soldiers, that would be terrible. One corpse soldier can be worth ten, and hundreds of thousands of corpse soldiers can be worth more than one million soldiers, and they are an invulnerable army. It would be easy to destroy a country, so this matter must be made clear.
However, the parties involved, Murong Li and Su Yue, did not take the news to heart at all. They continued to do their daily routines. Murong Li forcibly conscripted thousands of people from the villages and towns within the jurisdiction of the Qingniu Mountains.
Su Yue's secret guards were able to find the raw materials for cement very smoothly. The first batch of cement had been produced today and was ready to reinforce the city wall.
