At the same time, a middle-aged man with a rich appearance appeared in the prison of Kyoto. His aloof temperament formed a sharp contrast with the dark and damp prison.
At this moment, he could hardly hide his anger and scolded: "A bunch of useless things! The master of the family always provides you with good food and drink. But when it comes to you, none of you can be of any use at the scene!"
In a rage, he crushed the communication jade talisman in his hand into pieces.
The fragments of the jade talisman fluttered all over the ground, sparkling and beautiful, but for no reason they made the people kneeling on the ground shrink their necks.
The man continued, "Such a thorough plan, so many spies infiltrated in advance. Not only did they fail to kill that stinky girl Xia Changan, but they also failed to figure out a city defense formation. It's simply ridiculous! And that Yunqi country. Even an army of 500,000 couldn't take down Xilin City. They're all just useless people!"
The man waved his hand in an unfavorable manner and said impatiently: "Get out of here! I'm upset just seeing you. Wait! Drag that old man Yan Qing over here. I haven't had a good chat with him for a day."
"Yes!" The person kneeling on the ground seemed to be relieved and left very neatly.
Not long after, they dragged a man covered in blood. The men didn't dare to stay any longer, so they put the man down and quickly left.
Zhao He held a whip full of barbs in his hand and said with a fake smile: "Old Yan Qing, it's been so many days. Haven't you remembered where you put the jade seal? My patience is almost over. Next time, I may not hold a whip in my hand."
Yan Qing made a sound of "Puh" and said weakly: "As the great elder of Da Xia, I will never succumb to a treacherous villain like you who kills the king and usurps the throne! You want the imperial seal? You are dreaming!"
Zhao He said with a gloomy face: "Haha! As expected of the chief elder of the elders' council, you are really tough. Unfortunately, most of the Great Xia army has been controlled by me. At most, I can fight all the way to Xilin City in three days. Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you. The eldest princess you have been thinking about is now in Xilin City. To show my respect, I will definitely send her to the west with my own hands, just like I killed Xia Sheng. Hahaha!"
"You traitor, you shall not die a hapless death! The royal family of Daxia will never be exterminated, you will definitely fail!" Yan Qing stared at Zhao He with resentment, wishing he could eat his flesh and bones.
"Hmph! The Great Xia royal family? They are just second-generation descendants who rely on the influence of their ancestors! Everyone in the world is inferior, why should Great Xia be controlled by them? I, Zhao Heding, will create an almighty empire where the capable rule! Come on, drag this old man away!"
After venting his temper, Zhao He left the Heavenly Prison and came to a secret weapon refining workshop alone.
"Greetings, master! Are you here to inspect the progress of the refining of the World-Destroying Fire Gun?" The person in charge of the weapon refining workshop immediately came forward when he saw Zhao He.
"Well, how is the refining going?" Zhao He asked casually.
"As Patriarch Xi said, the process of integrating the blood of the Abyss Clan is more difficult than imagined. However, we have already thought of a solution. It will take four or five days at most to successfully refine it." The person in charge Xi answered respectfully.
Zhao He nodded with satisfaction.
Ha! The power of this world-destroying fire gun is enough to destroy an entire country. 㳎Isn't it a great honor for you to be sent off with such a stunning weapon? Princess Jianing!
Xia Changan knew nothing about this at the moment. She was sitting in the meeting room surrounded by people, feeling uneasy. Because there were too many people in the meeting room, she felt like she was sitting on pins and needles.
All the important civil and military officials of Xilin City were present, and they even remotely connected with a group of officials including the governor of Saxi Prefecture in the distant Sayuan City through spiritual power.
Of course, so many high-ranking officials gathered here not to chat or eat sunflower seeds. They were discussing how to deal with the rebellious party.
The governor of Saxi Prefecture said, "I think it is a bit unrealistic to storm the capital and suppress the rebellion with only the 400,000 troops of Saxi Prefecture. We should try to contact the high-level officials of several surrounding states and persuade them to join us in suppressing the rebellion."
Lin Zewu shook his head and retorted, "Do you think I haven't thought about it? After I got the idea, I sent new people to other states to get information. Unfortunately, the top officials in those states have all been replaced. The original officials have either disappeared or been killed, and the current ones are all from the Zhao family."
"What! This is outrageous! Zhao He is so cruel!"
"In that case, doesn't that mean that Governor Qian from the neighboring state has already met with a murder? Brother Qian! We agreed to have a drink together during the New Year... wuwuwu."
"No, Zhao He is too vicious. We must not let him continue to get away with it! Your Highness, I am willing to lead the troops to the front and kill him in Kyoto. We must take Zhao He's head and commemorate our deceased colleagues!"
Xia Changan looked blankly at this group of grown men who were crying and groaning with red faces and thick necks. He felt speechless in his heart.
These people talked for a long time, but no one raised any useful opinions. They just kept yelling.
Zhao He is a crime that is hated by both humans and gods, and he deserves to be killed. Why should they talk about this? She already knew everything.
Of course, at the critical moment, I still have to rely on myself. There are so many ministers, but not one is reliable.
【Three hundred thousand troops will follow me to Kyoto to fight the rebellion, and the rest will stay in Sasi Province. I have already planned the route. If you have any opinions, please raise them as soon as possible. If no one raises any opinions, we will implement it directly.】
Xia Changan's order instantly silenced the entire meeting room. Everyone quietly began to study the route of the army announced by Xia Changan.
The route planning was quite standard, after all, the army could only use a few roads. No matter how much they planned, they couldn't plan out a flower.
"Your Highness! We only have 300,000 people. Can we reach Kyoto? There are 500,000 troops stationed in Kyoto alone. The several large states we pass through along the way have an average of 300,000 to 400,000 troops stationed there. We are not afraid of death, but we are afraid that we will not be able to successfully reach Kyoto and cause chaos." Qi He said with a frown.
[Don't be afraid, I will use psychic weapons to help you. I will definitely not let the rebels bully you.]
"Psionic weapons! This is great! When the time comes, we can fire a cannon at them and make them cry for their parents." Qi He said excitedly.
Xia Changan endured the torture brought by social phobia while dealing with various questions from ministers. The process was painful and sour.
Hey, everyone said that the Emperor Soul was so awesome. But why didn't she feel anything at all? What on earth was that Human Emperor Immortal State?
She has been researching for so long but still has nothing to show for it. She doesn't know if she will ever be able to figure it out in this lifetime.
