"After cutting him in half, let a spirit master cast a spell to keep Jin Buhui's soul in his head!"
The hall was totally silent, everyone's eyes looked towards Shiyue weirdly.
If they didn't hear wrongly, the person who spoke was this person.
Shiyue didn't care, calmly continuing, "This person is so arrogant and rude, disrespectful to the ruler father. Killing him like this is letting him off too easily. Since your majesty wants to hang his head on the city wall to let him see our Taishang rise up. Why not leave his soul to let him personally witness whether or not the Taishang will die in 3 years? I also want to know if his name is Buhui, will he really not regret his words? "
Yin Yu listened on quietly, at the start his eyes were filled with unhappiness. A moment later, a mocking intent appeared, looking at Shiyue with a teasing expression, "Shiyue, you want to save his life? You really put in a lot of effort! I also heard that your relationship with Zong Shou in the past was not bad and you appreciated each other? "
Shiyue kept silent, this was the only thing he could do for Jin Buhui. He still remembered the favor he owed Zong Shou a few years ago. This might be the only chance he had to repay it.
"As you wish, it is okay!"
Just as the atmosphere in the hall was suppressing, Yin Yu suddenly laughed, "However, I hate this Jin Buhui! Such a person who colludes with the enemy can be killed. I can keep his soul, but I can't let him have a good life. Every 7 days, I can torture his soul … "
Shiyue's expression finally changed. He knew that this matter was already set and couldn't be changed. No matter how he tried to persuade it, it was useless. Yin Yu was smart and wasn't a fool that could be lied to.
However, with that, if Zong Shou couldn't save him. Jin Buhui might have a life worse than death for the next few hundred years.
Even if he was able to escape, he wouldn't be able to improve in his cultivation.
Sighing, Shiyue returned to his original spot. His expression was solemn, and he didn't take another look.
The only thing he did not expect was that after the defeat in Nanjiang, Yin Yu, who had obtained the twelve Copper Men, had totally thrown away his benevolent image.
At this moment, another person walked out. It was an assistant minister from the Ministry of Rites.
"Your Majesty, a Da Qian envoy has arrived in the Imperial City and wants to meet you. He said that the Dark World Demon Court attacked the Celestial World and was less than 10 days away from the Cloud World. At this moment, Da Qian Taishang was in dire straits. I beg Your Majesty to send troops to fight against the Night Demon Army. Don't let the flames of war spread to the Cloud World! "
"Asking for help?"
Yin Yu's interest was piqued; he asked curiously, "With that Zong Shou's arrogant temperament, he is willing to lower his head and ask our Taishang for help?"
The assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites bowed before explaining in detail, "It has been a few days since the emperor of the Great Qian Dynasty went missing and there are still no results. I heard that he is still alive, but as for what the situation is, no one knows. This messenger of the Great Qian Dynasty should be here on the orders of the Great Qian Dynasty's cabinet. "
"Cabinet orders? Then why didn't you chase him out of the Imperial City? Did you agree with his words? Without the lips, the teeth are in dire straits. Do you think that makes sense? "
Yin Yu's gaze was cold as he asked, causing that Assistant Minister Li's face to turn ashen white.
Zuoxin laughed coldly, "Only now do you remember to ask for help from our Taishang? However, in the past, I have never seen that Zong Shou show mercy to our army. If we help them now, will that Da Qian be able to take a breather and then attack us? "
Assistant Minister Li was helpless and said fearfully, "I didn't think about it, please don't be angry! I heard that the Dark World Demon Court has billions of troops and controls 400 worlds. They have 70 Jiedu Ministers and swept the Cloud World in the past. They forced three Saint Emperors of the Cloud World to their deaths. Our Da Qian is located in the mid plains and is the first to be affected. When I heard that their army was about to invade, I lost my cool. "
"So what if we lose the Celestial World? I have my own ways to force back the Night Demon Army! You are worrying too much. "
Yin Yu said this but he was thinking about it in his heart. The person in front of him was too soft and wasn't suitable for the position of Assistant Minister of Rites. It was best if he didn't have any real power.
However, at the next moment, a line of words suddenly pierced into his mind.
… His Majesty looks like he is willing to listen to advice, but in truth, he is stubborn and doesn't listen to words that are unpleasant to the ear. He often treats officials like grass, using them as chess pieces and not as bones.
It was one of the many words of Jin Buhui that Zuoxin recorded in the document.
Yin Yu's face instantly turned ashen white, temporarily giving up on the thought of scolding him. He said seriously, "However, it is not impossible for our Taishang to send troops! You can make that Zong Shou hand over the five states of Jiangnan and also South Wind Cloud Continent and I can send troops to help! "
After hesitating slightly, he laughed coldly, "Apart from that, I have seen his concubine Kong Yao. She is extremely beautiful. I have been thinking about her recently, I can invite her to the capital as a hostage … "
Before he finished. The officials were all shocked as they looked at Yin Yu.
No matter what, those words shouldn't have come from the mouth of a wise ruler.
They also felt that this Emperor Yuanchen wasn't right and was different from before.
Be it the way he dealt with Jin Buhui or the words he said, it wasn't like before.
Zuo Xin was also slightly puzzled. He subconsciously wanted to advise him against it.
However, in the next instance, Yuanchen's cold gaze swept over. It was extremely cold, causing one to feel a chill down one's spine. He instantly shut his mouth and lowered his head.
It wasn't wise to anger Yin Yu at this moment.
These conditions were really harsh. Yin Yu probably just wanted to humiliate Zong Shou to vent the anger in his chest. Thinking about it, it wasn't much.
If Da Qian really agreed, the ones who would lose face would be Da Qian and Zong Shou.
Shiyue comprehended something at the side. Was this because Yin Yu swallowed the Qin Dragon Energy, the true spirit of the Qin Emperor?
The history books said that the Qin Emperor was violent for a reason. Although Yin Yu's King Path Martial Arts were strong now, his foundation was still weak. After all, his martial path foundations were weak and he was affected by the true spirit of the Qin Emperor.
Legend had it that the dragon had a reverse scale and if one touched it, one would die!
Zong Shou was undoubtedly a true dragon. Today, Yin Yu did two things consecutively and touched Zong Shou's bottom line. Who knows how Zong Shou would react?
Shiyue shook his head and felt that Jin Buhui was right. To protect the fate of the Taishang country, he had lost his mind.
He appeased the officials to rope in the aristocratic families and Confucian Faction, causing corruption in the country. He couldn't see himself clearly and didn't know the details of the people.
Even with the twelve Copper Men in his hands, he had lost the hearts of the people. The country was in a state of famine, and the few peaceful places that remained were being squeezed dry by the powerful aristocratic families and the imperial court. They couldn't bear it anymore.
Without dozens of years of ruling, it would be tough to settle down and calm down the people.
In just half a year, he wanted to start another war. In Shiyue's eyes, that was just crazy.
On the contrary, the Da Qian had less land than the Taishang. However, they didn't pay much taxes. If they really fought once more, they might not be weak. When they were in danger, they could double their troops at any moment.
Zong Shou used his Saint King body to summon people to defend against the Night Demon army. The world would probably follow his orders and his reputation would be even stronger than before.
Anyone with knowledge would know that if the Night Demon army arrived, the Cloud World would face a huge calamity.
Yin Yu thought that with the twelve Copper Men in his hands, he could be at ease. Wasn't he too arrogant?
His foundations weren't stable and with such Country Protecting Artifacts, he wouldn't be able to protect the country in the future.
However, at this moment, Yin Yu really had the ability to be fearless. Unless Zong Shou could chase away the Night Demons or step into End Realm, he really wouldn't be able to do anything to Yin Yu.
Just as he was deep in thought, one of the officials said, "Zong Shou is despicable during the Battle of Falling Dragon Plains! He caused our Taishang Elite Army to lose 90% of our forces. Please rebuild the Guards Legion Corps! Train a million Dao Soldiers! "
Instantly, someone objected, "A million Dao Soldiers? But where does our Taishang have so much money? We need to send aid to the various disasters. We also need to suppress the chaos all around. During these few years, the Spiritual Wave rose and there wasn't any drought. However, there are floods everywhere and the embankments are in disrepair. We need money … "
"During the Battle of the South, we need to provide grain for the Hundred Victory Pass Army. We have already used up all our savings. There is really nothing we can do! "
"You are wrong! The current tax still has room for improvement. It is okay to increase taxes. I think our Taishang people would be willing to help the country. At most, in two to three years, we can reduce taxes and let the people rest! "
"Actually, we don't need to start from taxes. Our Taishang Country has numerous mines. In recent years, the Imperial Court failed to investigate and many of them fell into the pockets of the various aristocratic families. There are also corrupt officials who have their hands on them. As long as the Imperial Court investigates and cleans them up, we will naturally have the ability to raise an army! "
Shiyue listened on quietly and glanced at Emperor Yuanchen. Only to see Yin Yu listen on expressionlessly. His eyes were filled with a cold mocking expression.
Shiyue couldn't help but have a thought. Was the scenes in front of him purposely arranged by Emperor Yuanchen?
His chest couldn't help but sink once more. Shiyue shook his head. No matter if it was or not, it meant that Yin Yu was prepared to attack the aristocratic families and the various officials.
He wasn't wrong, but he was too anxious and couldn't see himself clearly.
However, this matter had nothing to do with him and Shiyue wasn't willing to persuade him anymore.
Since things had reached such a stage, he was already disheartened. If he said anything about loyalty, that would just be pedantic.
The discussion on the matter of conscription lasted for about an hour before coming to an end.
Then, they discussed the Crown Prince Yinhan. He had already disappeared for seven days and no one knew if he was dead or alive. They only knew that this person had also entered the Qin Emperor Tomb a few days ago.
Yin Yu was really anxious and sad as he said a few words of concern.
For some reason, Shiyue felt that Emperor Yuanchen didn't care about Yinhan's life and death. Instead, he was happy to see it happen.
Thinking about it, one would know the reason. Swallowing Qin Dragon Energy, Qin Emperor True Spirit. Yin Yu had already extended his lifespan. If he could rule for another 200 years, then what was the point of having a Crown Prince?
Just as the officials were discussing, Shiyue suddenly sensed something. He immediately used his spirit and eyes to look into the distance through the layers of obstructions.
In front of the palace gate, a man in a black robe with a strange charm was standing there.
"I am Li Biexue! I am willing to take over the role of Taishang Grand Teacher … "
Shiyue's pupils constricted and then he burst out laughing. So, it was Wushang Yuan Demon, no wonder! This was the reason why Yin Yu wasn't afraid of the aristocratic families fighting back and was so confident. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me.
