From below the Heavenly Palace!
Qin Xuanzang's figure appeared again in Xianyang City.
Under the sunlight, the golden cassock sparkled with a Buddha's light from the inside out.
Before ascending to the heavenly palace, Xuanzang was still an ordinary mortal. Although he had Buddhist teachings, he did not have Buddhist power.
But after coming down from the heavenly palace.
Has changed.
He has integrated nine lifetimes of cultivation, and although it has not yet been completely integrated, he already possesses the strength of a peak Taiyi Golden Immortal.
However, due to the effect of the cassock bestowed by Zhao Feng, Xuanzang was unable to leak any Buddhist energy, and seemed to be still just a mortal.
When he reappeared, the people in the city saw Xuanzang wearing a golden cassock and holding a Zen staff.
At that moment, countless eyes gathered together, eyes full of admiration and respect, staring quietly at this great monk.
"From today on."
Qin Xuanzang felt the countless gazes from all over the city. After taking a look around, he spoke, and his voice spread to every corner of Xianyang City: "I will represent the Great Qin and go to the West to spread the Dharma."
"The day of success will be the day when the Buddha Dharma of our Great Qin spreads across the heaven and earth."
"Amitabha."
The words fell.
Xuanzang clasped his hands together, lowered his head slightly, chanted Buddhist mantras, and his expression was firm and solemn.
"Great Master Xuanzang."
"Farewell, Master Xuanzang."
"Farewell, Master Xuanzang."
"Master Xuanzang, have a safe journey."
…
The sounds came one after another, echoing over the sky of Xianyang City.
Countless people spontaneously saw Xuanzang off, their faces filled with sincere blessings.
Under the gazes of countless people, Xuanzang, holding a Zen stick in his hand, walked step by step towards the outside of Xianyang city.
It truly opened the journey westward.
It is not about obtaining Buddhist scriptures from the West, but about spreading the Dharma in the West.
This place is a long distance away from the majestic pass in the west.
For ordinary people, that long journey may be an insurmountable chasm.
However, after Xuanzang took this step, the distance was no longer a big deal.
Because someone will secretly help him shorten the distance and reach the place where the two continents meet as soon as possible.
As Xuanzang left the Heavenly Palace and walked towards the outside of Xianyang, Ying Zheng and Zhao Feng smiled at each other in the main hall of the Heavenly Palace.
"The big show has finally begun."
Ying Zheng laughed, and that smile revealed endless anticipation.
"Call the civil and military officials and start the court meeting." Zhao Feng said. He had been waiting for this moment for a long time.
This time, the great catastrophe has begun, and the time for the real expansion of the Qin Dynasty is about to come. Such a major event must naturally be taken seriously.
"Convey my will."
Ying Zheng shouted to the outside of the palace. His voice was like thunder, shaking the air outside the palace: "Call all the ministers and start the court meeting."
As the sound fell.
Boom, boom, boom! The celestial bell outside the Heavenly Palace suddenly rang.
The ancient celestial bell rang, and the sound was melodious and grand, like a call from ancient times.
The sound spread and spread directly throughout Xianyang.
The sound of the bell can be clearly heard in every street and every corner of Xianyang City.
Even the sub-bells of all the states in Daqin resonated with it.
For a moment, the majestic sound of the bell echoed throughout the land of Daqin.
"The sky bell is ringing."
"It's going to be something big."
As the celestial bell rang through the void, the people of the Great Qin who heard the sound of the celestial bell all looked at the heavenly palace above the sky with awe.
Countless people looked up at the Heavenly Palace, their eyes filled with expectation and awe of the unknown.
at the same time!
From the city of Xianyang, streams of light rose into the sky and flew towards the heavenly palace.
These streams of light are all dazzling, like meteors across the sky, and each one exudes extremely powerful momentum.
It's totally impossible to see through.
And it's not just flying with magical powers.
Some even directly tore through the void and came to the top of the Heavenly Palace, outside the Heavenly Gate. The moment the void was torn apart, the entire world seemed to be shaking.
The heavenly bell rang, gathering all the ministers.
For Daqin, this was something that had not been heard for a long time.
Today, the Emperor of Heaven must have something important to arrange.
At this moment! The gate of heaven opened wide, and a powerful momentum rushed towards us.
The momentum contained majesty and solemnity. Ministers gathered directly into the Heavenly Palace. Not only those in Xianyang, but also the governors stationed in various parts of the Qin territory received the imperial decree and entered the Heavenly Palace for consultation.
The court meetings held twice a year were attended not only by ministers from the capital, but also by governors and provincial governors.
For a moment, the entire void of Xianyang City was shaking.
Those with powerful cultivation bases tore through the void and came here. Their figures were looming in the cracks of the void, as if they were messengers from another world. Those with weaker cultivation bases came here on teleportation arrays.
The teleportation array was glowing with light, and people kept walking out of it, running towards the Heavenly Palace.
Above the void of the entire Xianyang City, powerful martial arts aura, immortal pressure, and various ways of cultivation were all displayed.
These auras intertwined with each other, forming a powerful aura, which also demonstrated the power of the Qin Dynasty.
The Great Qin of today is no longer the Great Qin of the past.
With its powerful national strength and numerous strong men, it has become a powerful force that cannot be ignored in this world.
Inside the Heavenly Palace, Ying Zheng and his son were waiting calmly.
Ying Zheng sat on the supreme throne, his eyes were deep and calm, as if he could see through everything.
Zhao Fengze stood on the stairs, emitting a fierce aura that was honed through countless battles.
The door of the hall will only be opened after all the officials have gathered.
This convergence process is naturally very fast.
Soon, thousands of ministers gathered outside the Heavenly Palace.
Today, more than a thousand governors have been appointed within the territory of the Qin Empire.
In addition to them, there are also provincial generals who are in charge of the military power of a state.
Naturally, court meetings could also reach such a scale.
“Are all the people here?”
Lu Buwei stood on the stairs in front of the Heavenly Palace with his hands behind his back and asked loudly.
As the prime minister of the Qin Dynasty, his voice was steady and powerful, with the dignity of a veteran in officialdom. As his voice fell, his eyes swept across the ministers below, as if he wanted to take in the condition of each person.
"Go back to Xiangbang."
Xiao He stood up and shouted back, "The six ministers of the Great Qin and the governors of all states are all here."
"very good."
Lu Buwei nodded and asked no more questions, with a look of satisfaction on his face.
At the same time, Wang Jian, who was standing side by side with Lü Buwei, also spoke up: "Have all the generals arrived?"
Compared to Lu Buwei's aura of a civil official, Wang Jian exudes a martial arts aura, is majestic and awe-inspiring, and his eyes are still extremely sharp.
"Return to the country, Captain."
Huan Yi immediately stepped forward and reported: "All the generals of the camps and governors of all states have arrived."
With the gathering of civil and military officials, all the ministers here have arrived.
"Everyone is here."
Wang Jian turned around and looked at Ren Xiao who was on duty outside the palace.
"Your Majesty, your Majesty, your Majesty."
Ren Xiong immediately bowed and said to the main hall: "All the ministers are here. Should we open the gate of the Heavenly Palace?"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a loud bang!
The originally tightly closed gate of the Heavenly Palace began to slowly open. When it opened, there was a dull sound.
Then, the main hall of the Heavenly Palace opened.
The ministers outside began to walk into the Heavenly Palace in an orderly manner.
Their steps were neat and solemn, and everyone was solemn.
Thousands of people attending court meetings would be unimaginable in the mortal world of the past, after all, the court would be packed.
However, the main hall of the Great Qin Heavenly Palace now contains the Sumeru mustard seeds.
The space inside this hall is so vast that it can accommodate not only thousands of people, but also tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people.
As the ministers entered the hall, Ying Zheng was already sitting majestically on the throne, while Zhao Feng was standing on the stairs.
today!
The Qin Emperor and the Crown Prince both attended the court.
This hasn't happened in many years.
After all, after Zhao Feng entered the Earthly Immortal Realm, he had been killing and killing, constantly strengthening himself, and rarely had the opportunity to attend court meetings.
So when the court officials gathered today and saw Queen Zhao Feng standing on the stairs, every one of them had an excited look on their faces, their eyes were full of reverence and excitement, some of them even trembled slightly, because they could not suppress the excitement of seeing the prince.
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. May your Majesty live a long and healthy life."
"Your Highness, I pay my respects to you. May you live a long and healthy life."
All the civil and military officials in the court paid homage to the two people in high positions. The voices of thousands of people gathered together, and the whole Heavenly Palace was filled with majestic sounds.
The sound was like a surging wave, one after another, and the cheers of the mountains shook the earth.
"No need to be polite, gentlemen."
Ying Zheng smiled slightly and raised his hand. His smile was filled with the majesty of an emperor.
Looking down at the ministers in the hall, he also had a sense of silent heroism.
Da Qin has only been on the path of cultivation for less than a thousand years, but now it possesses such powerful strength that it is enough to shake Buddhism and the Heavenly Court. This is the power and heritage of Da Qin.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, and thank you, Prince."
"Today's court meeting has been moved up two months compared to the previous one. Do you have any memorials to make?"
Ying Zheng asked loudly, his eyes sweeping across the court, his voice echoing in the hall with an unquestionable majesty.
"Your Majesty."
Lu Buwei stood up and began to speak with a smile.
"Now our Great Qin is strong and prosperous, and the people are at peace. Apart from some minor troubles caused by evil cultivators, there is nothing else in the states and counties. It's nothing more than some trivial matters."
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty."
Ying Zheng just smiled at Lu Buwei's report and did not question anything. After all, this was indeed the case with the Qin Dynasty today.
The governor of a state is in charge of the political affairs of that state, and in order to better check and balance the ministers and officials of the world, Yan Ting and Heibingtai became institutions for patrolling the world.
Yan Ting is responsible for targeting the demons and evil spirits within the territory of the Great Qin, those demons and evil spirits that have committed crimes and triggered the law, and even monks.
After all, Daqin has now fully entered the era of cultivation. Within the territory of Daqin, immortals are not strong, but living beings have seven emotions and six desires. Once they have power, they will have ambitions and greed, and violations of taboos are endless.
Therefore, Yan Ting was the main monk who punished him.
Yan Ting is responsible for maintaining the order of the Qin Dynasty.
The Black Ice Platform was responsible for supervising officials within the territory of the Qin Dynasty.
In order to avoid officials protecting each other, Heibingtai was directly ordered by the current heir Zhao Qi and Qin Emperor Ying Zheng.
Moreover, in order to enable the people to take measures against officials, a special area called the Black Ice Platform was even opened up on the Tianxuan Mirror.
The Tianxuan Mirror was suspended in the sky above Daqin, emitting a mysterious light.
If you feel wronged, you can contact Heibingtai directly through the Tianxuan Mirror.
Of course, if someone falsely reports a grievance or even makes a false accusation, once it is discovered, he will be directly punished by the Black Ice Platform, with the lighter punishment being imprisonment and the heavier punishment being outright execution.
Today's Qin can be said to be a country with strict laws and the most stringent protection.
The reason why the Qin Dynasty was so prosperous was precisely because of the Qin laws, which treated all living things in the Qin Dynasty in accordance with the rules.
The majesty of the law can be felt in every corner of Daqin. It is like an invisible net that covers the entire country and keeps everything in order.
Of course, if there really is a life-and-death feud, a real enemy, or even a sect dispute.
The Qin Dynasty did not necessarily force them to reconcile. There were life and death arenas in every state and county.
As long as they report to the local authorities and sign a life-and-death battle, the sect can fight to the death, and individuals can also fight to the death, and the winner can get everything from the opponent.
In this chaotic world, the Qin Dynasty is the only one that can maintain such a balance between relaxation and tension.
"I, of course, believe that Great Qin is stable."
Ying Zheng smiled and nodded, as if everything was under his control.
"His Majesty."
Wang Jian looked at Ying Zheng expectantly and asked, his face gleaming with excitement: "Is the opening of the court meeting today because of Master Xuanzang's journey to the west?"
"Is the Great Qin going to mobilize troops to the west?"
As he spoke, there was a hint of urgency in Wang Jian's voice, and he was obviously looking forward to the war.
After these words were spoken, not only Wang Jian, but all the civil and military officials in the court focused their attention on Ying Zheng.
Both civil officials and military generals were radiant with excitement.
Although the civil officials do not need to go to the battlefield to fight, once the Qin Dynasty gains a larger territory, there will be countless more governors and frontier officials to carry the fortune and gain greater fortune.
The stronger the Qin was, the stronger they were. The generals were eager to fight, they were eager to make achievements on the battlefield and expand the territory for the Qin.
Because once the war begins, Daqin will gain a larger territory, and the resources it bestows on its subjects will also increase.
The key is that the whole Qin Dynasty is united.
70% of the resources obtained by the entire Qin Dynasty will actually fall on the Qin Dynasty's ministers and even the army, and only 30% will be returned to the national treasury for reserve purposes.
This distribution method greatly stimulated the enthusiasm of ministers and the army, making them work hard for the prosperity of the Qin Dynasty.
Listening to Wang Jian's words, Ying Zheng smiled.
Zhao Feng on the stairs also smiled.
"It seems that in the past five hundred years, our Great Qin Army has really wanted war!"
Zhao Feng said with some emotion.
"Return to your highness."
Wang Jian smiled and said with some emotion: "Since we set out to conquer the East China Sea more than 500 years ago, and in the following 200 years, we suppressed many rebellious cultivators, water tribes, monsters, etc. in the East China Sea. Our Great Qin army has not seen a war for more than 300 years."
"Although our Great Qin has entered the realm of cultivation, most of the elite warriors are from the mortal world in the past. Three hundred years is indeed too long for us."
As Wang Jian finished speaking, many generals in the court also expressed their agreement.
