Chapter 450 Working at sunset, resting at sunrise
Feeling the mocking gaze from Yaoyue, Dongfang Bubai's expression darkened slightly.
Upon seeing this, Yaoyue's smile only widened.
As Chu Qinghe said, when Yaoyue and Dongfang Bubai were together, their happiness came easily.
If one party is unhappy, the other party can naturally become happy.
As for the way to rule, we are all future empresses, and none of us are inferior to the other.
After feeling a bit better, Yaoyue looked at Chu Qinghe and said, "After the New Year's Eve, I will immediately go back and start dealing with these matters."
Upon hearing this, Chu Qinghe nodded slightly in acknowledgment, then turned his gaze to Dongfang Bubai standing to the side.
Meeting Chu Qinghe's gaze, Dongfang Bubai said, "The Great Song Dynasty has been weak for a long time, and there is almost no one capable in the court. During this period, I have replaced all the people in the Great Song Dynasty who are qualified to attend the morning court."
Lianxing asked in astonishment, "Replace them all? Won't this have a huge impact on the court?"
Throughout history, corrupt officials have been rampant despite repeated crackdowns, and within each dynasty, these corrupt officials would band together for mutual support, making it a case of "if one thing is done, the whole situation will be affected."
Perhaps this is the greatest fortune in life.
Yaoyue frowned and asked, "Why must we wait until before I ascend the throne?"
However, the Qin state is currently facing internal troubles and has the time to attack other states.
Qu Feiyan and the others ran outside the courtyard, sometimes having a snowball fight, and sometimes setting off firecrackers.
Dongfang Shibai: "Are you sure you want to change it?"
However, after Yaoyue's smile lingered on her face for a while, as if she had noticed something, Yaoyue shifted her gaze again, meeting Dongfang Shibai's somewhat disdainful look.
"We will finalize the matter of the Dragon Soul before the East ascends the throne, so as to avoid any unforeseen complications."
Yaoyue snorted, "Of course."
Rather than letting Xiao Yin Ji continue to be ravaged by powerful clans as she is now, it would be better to be as decisive as Dongfang Shibai.
Jellyfish Song asked, "Since the smallest problem hasn't been solved yet, when does Sister Dongfang plan to ascend the throne?"
Only after Chu Qinghe removed the fire poison from the two of them did their breathing finally stabilize.
The only remaining issues are those concerning the imperial court.
Today is the anniversary, and the two men have returned after a long absence. Therefore, before practicing the newly learned "Flying Waterfall Palm" in the afternoon, the two of them, at Chu Qinghe's invitation, retreated to the outside of the main house with Shuimu Songguo to play mahjong.
In response, Song Guozhong, who was standing to the side, laughed and said, "If we are well prepared, Sister Dongfang's slow and steady approach is indeed the most suitable for Xiao Liu Cui right now."
Whenever she thinks of that, Yaoyue feels depressed.
The next day, as firecrackers echoed throughout the city, in the secluded courtyard, Dongfang Shibai and Yaoyue each stood in a different direction. As the power of heaven and earth and spiritual energy within their bodies slowly surged, the Yang energy in Xuanwu Yuanye was being continuously devoured by the Phoenix Blood within the two men's bodies.
In an instant, the smile on Yaoyue's face vanished, and her eyes, sharp as knives, glared fiercely at Dongfang Shibai before she closed them.
In response, Lianxing thought about the previous time the Jellyfish Song Kingdom usurped the throne and then nodded decisively.
At this point, even late at night, there's still not a moment to rest.
As the leader of the Sun Moon Cult, Dongfang Shibai would have been the most suitable person to become the emperor of the Ming Dynasty after winning the battle.
None of the emperors who succeeded Xiaoyinji when they first ascended the throne wanted their Xiaoyinji to have a clean and prosperous government, with the people living in peace and contentment, so that they could become the restorers of the dynasty.
The path to becoming an emperor is like a single-plank bridge built at the foot of a precipice. Anyone who walks on that bridge either becomes numb by sweeping away all obstacles behind them with the fierce mountain winds, or is blown off and falls into the cliff to be smashed to pieces.
Knowing what Lianxing meant, Jellyfish Song Guo replied, "You know that too, but right now your strength is only slightly lower than the two of you. If you were to attack both of you at the same time, you would also find it difficult to defend yourself."
......
Thinking of that, Yaoyue felt a little less pressured.
Chu Qinghe said, "Let's do it before the first day of the lunar new year! After all, it will take some time to get over that incident."
Thinking about it, Chu Qinghe suddenly missed the time when his family's cultivation was sufficient and their physical weakness was only slightly less than that of special people.
As the amount of phoenix blood in the two men decreased, the phoenix blood within them also ceased to generate fire poison.
Before an incense stick had burned, as the fire poison in their bodies was completely cleared, and with the nourishment of the phoenix blood, their cultivation levels simultaneously reached the peak of the Divine Seating Realm.
However, Dongfang Bubai has now replaced all the court officials who are allowed to attend the morning court session, which is equivalent to rendering the court ineffective.
Even the emperor of the Song Dynasty might have to weigh the options carefully before dismissing an official at will.
Now that he knew about Bai Xiaosheng's allegiance, Dongfang Shibai understood the reason.
For Xiaoyin Ji, there is no immediate concern about internal problems.
Yao Yue retorted without hesitation, "What can you do even if you change him?"
With the addition of the weapons and treasures in Yang Gong's treasury, it can be said that the timing, location, and popular support are all in favor of the East. Since the East is defeated, why should we care?
"To avoid a similar power grab next time, it would be better to play it safe. Anyway, you'll be even busier next time, and your cultivation progress will be dragged down as well."
Upon hearing what Chu Qinghe said, Dongfang Shibai asked, "After that trip to Xiao Qin, was he only going to see Li Chunfeng?"
