Chapter 230: The couple's secret discussion Just at this moment, Beiju...
Just at this time, good news came from Uttarakuru - the rebels there had been wiped out.
Unlike the Heavenly Court where some were killed and some were suppressed, in Uttarakuru, no one who participated in the rebellion could escape.
It turned out that after Nezha was summoned by Fuli, his deputy Xinyi immediately reported the matter to Ji Meng. Ji Meng could probably guess that Nezha would not abandon the army and leave without a reason, and that there must be a problem on Fuli's side.
The ultimate goal of these people doing all this was to help Fuli ascend to the throne of Heavenly Emperor. Protecting Fuli's safety was naturally the most important thing. If anything happened to Fuli, all their efforts would be in vain.
Fortunately, they had a lot of manpower available, so Ji Meng immediately sent Wu Gou, the Golden Immortal who was practicing in Penglai, to take charge of the situation. He also notified the Phoenix Clan by mobile phone, and the Phoenix Clan also sent two Golden Immortals to assist.
Unlike Nezha, these three had no experience leading troops, and they had trouble finding the right balance between suppression and appeasement. After meeting, the three of them decided: simply don't bother appeasing them, and just wipe them out completely.
Penglai, in Northern Juluzhou, has two intelligence organizations: one open and one hidden. The Nine-Headed Insect is in the open, while Ji Meng is in the dark.
With the help of these two sets of intelligence, anyone who had any conflict with Haotian, whether they were from the demon clan or the witch clan, would be killed one by one.
Rivers of blood flowed in Uttarakuru, and those who did not participate in the rebellion were terrified. At least in the short term, no one dared to go against the Heavenly Court, which gave the Heavenly Court time to govern calmly.
But every advantage has its disadvantages. The disadvantage is that the already strong resentment has become three times stronger under the stimulation of this bloody and evil energy, which has added many difficulties to the subsequent governance.
It can be said that in the battle of Uttarakuru, the Heavenly Court seemed to have won, but it did not win completely.
But generally speaking, the news of victory in this situation quickly stabilized the unstable hearts of the people in the Heavenly Court, which had just put down the rebellion.
After cleaning up the battlefield, the first thing Fu Li did was to open his own treasure house. He took out 30% of it in public as compensation for casualties, and distributed the rest to the surviving heavenly soldiers and generals.
Fu Li fulfilled her promise and her prestige increased. Everyone obeyed her orders, cleaned up the battlefield, and under the leadership of Taiyi Zhenren, the god of construction, they repaired the damaged buildings.
The God of Wealth Zhao Gongming was planning to expand his business to Uttarakuru, so he opened a stock market online and encouraged people to buy his stocks for investment.
In fact, he was not short of funds. The reason why he brought all these heavenly soldiers and generals with him was to help his disciples stabilize their morale. No matter how the business performed in the future, he would not let these people lose their capital.
Among the heavenly soldiers and generals, some with quick minds bought it immediately; others, who were not so smart, but had great faith in Emperor Fu Li, and used all their savings to buy it.
Those who didn't buy had various considerations, and Zhao Gongming didn't force them and just let them do as they pleased.
Anyway, he had already put the food in front of their mouths, but those people just refused to open their mouths to eat, and there was nothing he could do.
The second thing Fu Li did was to announce to the three realms that the Emperor of Heaven had lost his virtue. Not only did he wantonly disrupt the system of Heaven and send gods to interfere with the development of the mortal world, he also personally intercepted and killed the Emperor who had returned from his calamity.
Needless to say, those who followed Haotian died. Fu Li not only recognized their loyalty and bravery, but also provided security for their relatives.
The ones who really need to be handled with caution are the ones who are still alive.
There were too many people involved this time, so Haotian's actions must be considered rebellion, and they must also be the rebels who followed him. Otherwise, the soldiers who followed Fuli in the battle could not be justified in their actions, and would always worry that they would be wiped out one day.
It is impossible for Fu Li to destroy his own base in order to appease those surrendered soldiers.
Therefore, even if their sins were forgiven, they could not be kept in heaven.
But how to accommodate them?
This is a problem, and a big problem.
=====
When Nezha came back from the military camp in Shangjiutian, he saw the bright lights in Zichen Palace and knew that Fu Li had not rested yet.
He raised his hand to stop the jade girl who was about to report, and tiptoed in. Sure enough, he saw Fu Li sitting at the desk, supporting his chin with his left hand, concentrating on a jade slip on the table.
He walked gently to Fuli's side and sat down, putting his hand on her shoulder. Fuli felt a familiar breath and leaned over, rubbing against his chest.
"Has everything in Heaven been repaired?" Fu Li's voice sounded a little lazy, like a very sleepy cat.
Nezha said, "It's almost done. With Master here, we don't have to worry about this matter. I'll just watch."
The main reason is that Taiyi Zhenren still refuses to give up. He thinks that Nezha is his direct disciple, but he knows nothing about his most proud mechanical art, which is really hateful.
Therefore, when he was repairing the Heavenly Palace, he always brought Nezha and Ziyun with him. When he was free, he would explain to the two apprentices himself, and when he was busy, he would let Ziyun teach the basic knowledge to Nezha, his senior brother.
Nezha was forced to listen for a whole day, but he felt that the knowledge was incompatible with his brain and he was about to explode.
Ziyun couldn't stand it anymore, so she pleaded for him and promised that she would work harder and carry forward her master's mechanical skills. Only then was Nezha released.
Nezha's tragic experience made Fu Li unable to hold back her gloating, but Nezha seized on her and she said aggrievedly, "I'm in such a miserable state, and you're still smiling. You really don't love me anymore, right?"
"How could that be? I'm just so happy to see you." Fu Li hugged his cheeks and kissed him again and again. Nezha saw that the worry between her brows had disappeared, so he stopped and laughed with her.
After laughing, Fu Li asked again, "Have the surviving heavenly soldiers from the Ninth Heaven been settled?"
This is Nezha’s main job.
"They've been settled." Nezha touched her rosy cheek and couldn't help but sigh, "The generals are fine. Most of them have the cultivation level of Golden Immortals, and the worst are Xuanxian. They all have some self-protection cards.
I only pity those heavenly soldiers. They were the reincarnations of soldiers from the Shang and Zhou dynasties. Although they had cultivated diligently over the years, their cultivation was ultimately too weak. Of the 270,000 heavenly soldiers, nearly 40% had died."
These heavenly soldiers were originally mortal souls, who gained immortal bodies with the help of the water from the Immortal Pond.
Although the Immortal Transformation Pool can reshape the body, the body thus reshaped has extremely poor aptitude for cultivation. If one wants to achieve success in cultivation, he or she must work dozens of times harder than a mortal with a destiny to become an immortal.
The most important thing is that their names are not on the List of Gods. After dying in battle again, they can only enter the six reincarnations like other living beings in the world.
It is true that Nezha sighed for them and was worried about the shortage of soldiers.
Fu Li hugged his slender waist and comforted him with a smile: "Don't worry about the recruitment of soldiers. I already have a plan in mind. It's a good opportunity to ask Lu Ya to ascend to heaven this time to solve this matter as well."
"Invite Lu Ya to heaven?" Nezha was startled and asked unhappily, "Sister, why did you invite him? You know he still has evil intentions towards you."
Fu Li laughed and hit him, then spat, "What do you mean by 'unrepentant evil'? That's such a harsh statement. I'm such a good person, and liking me means he has a normal taste."
"He likes me, which means he has normal taste." Nezha pinched his throat and imitated her words, pouting and snorting, "I will be unhappy!"
Fu Li sneered, her hands slid up from his waist, skipped over his shoulders and rested on the back of his head, pulling it down hard, and his thin lips fell right on Fu Li's lips as she raised her head in anticipation.
The kiss ended instantly, but it effectively soothed Nezha's jealousy.
Fu Li smiled and coaxed, "What I meant is that you have high standards. I, who you like, must be radiant and attract the attention of discerning people."
Nezha glanced at her, and then glanced at her again. It was obvious that he could not hold it any longer, but he still tried to hold on.
Fu Li smiled secretly, leaned over and placed a kiss on his forehead, and said softly: "No matter in the past, present, or future, the person in my heart is only you, and it can only be you."
Nezha muttered, "You just say nice things to coax me." But a smile was already printed on his face.
Fu Li said jokingly, "How could I be teasing you? I'm speaking from the heart, can't you sense it?"
Nezha smiled and kissed her lips. They lingered together for a long time before hugging each other breathlessly, enjoying the rare tranquility.
After a moment, Nezha looked at the jade slip on the table and asked, "Sister, are you still worried about the placement of those surrendered soldiers?"
"Yeah." Fu Li had nothing to hide from him and sighed sadly, "If so many professionally trained heavenly soldiers and generals are not properly placed, they will be the source of unrest."
These people not only have cultivation skills, but have also received formal organizational training. If they become the king of a mountain, they will definitely not be able to compare with those wild monster kings and mountain masters.
We must not just exile them into the wilderness like this.
Nezha's warm, generous hands gently patted her back. He rested his chin on the top of her black hair and pondered for a long time before suggesting, "How about sending them to Northern Julu Continent? Wu Gou has been killing people too ruthlessly over there. Although he's frightened them temporarily, their morale is still unstable. We're in need of manpower right now."
Fu Li pondered and said, "That's one way, but the evil spirit in Northern Juluzhou is too strong. It's not a good place. We have to let them go there voluntarily."
Nezha laughed and said, "We must give them some benefits, otherwise who would be willing to go there? How about this: those who are willing to go will be given a double commission, and we promise to transfer them back in five hundred years."
Fu Li's eyes lit up, and she suddenly looked up and kissed him on the cheek, saying happily, "How come you are so smart?"
Nezha was so touched by her kiss that his heart almost melted. He returned the kiss and said with a smile, "How could I be so clever? It's just that Sister has been so busy lately that her mind is all in a mess. Otherwise, there would be no need for me to remind her."
The two of them were like kittens fighting, you kissed me, I kissed you, and we played around for a long time.
Fu Li said with full energy, "As long as more than 70% of them are willing to go, there's nothing to worry about for the rest. We can just give them some compensation and let them return to the prehistoric world."
If they were willing to live an honest life after returning, no one would do anything to them. But if they were dishonest and wanted to cause trouble, with so few people, Wukong could easily deal with them.
The two of them made up their minds and slept peacefully that night without mentioning the matter.
The next morning, Fu Li was preparing to receive Lu Ya, and Nezha went to the prisoner camp to announce the arrangements made by the Heavenly Court for them.
Nezha used the word "arrange" rather than "deal with".
Because of the foundation laid by Fu Li earlier, these captives still have a high degree of trust in the current Heavenly Court. After hearing this, they immediately felt relieved.
