The next day, Guqin brought up the matter of the envoys again. Gu Hai formally arranged for Mo Yike to handle the matter in front of all the officials.
In the eyes of many officials, this was an opportunity for Mo Yike to establish his authority. However, in Mo Yike's eyes, he could only smile bitterly. The emperor had given him a hot potato.
Mo Yike understood that the emperor was concerned about his feelings. Even if he chased the envoys away, the emperor would not blame him. However, could he do that? Not to mention that he was already a courtier of the Dahan and had to consider the interests of the Dahan, he could not bear to reject the request of the envoys.
"Sigh!"
With a slight sigh, Mo Yike accepted the Book of Ten Thousand People from the envoys.
Capital City, in Dayou Hall.
Takeshi Ryūshin looked at the scrolls that came from all directions with a gloomy expression.
"Bang!"
In his anger, Takeshi Ryūshin slammed his palm on the table. The scrolls fell to the ground one after another.
"Bastard, Gu Hai!" Takeshi Ryūshin said with a gloomy expression.
Long Aotian and Sima Changkong each picked up a few scrolls and read them.
"Gu Hai? He went back on his word? He said that he would not covet the Daewon's territory. That despicable person! "Long Aotian glared angrily.
Takeshi Ryūshin's expression was gloomy.
"Your Highness, are you angry because of this? Then Your Highness is wrong to be angry! "Sima Changkong said with a bitter smile.
"Hm?" Long Aotian and Takeshi Ryūshin looked at Sima Changkong.
"Gu Hai only promised not to send a single soldier to the Daewon's territory when he exchanged Qin Zibai. Now, all the cities are crying and shouting that they want to join the Dahan. Gu Hai didn't break his promise! "Sima Changkong smiled bitterly.
Takeshi Ryūshin's face darkened.
"It's wrong to take Daewon's territory. Look, how many cities are there? There were already ten cities? Why? Our soldiers risked their lives to besiege the city and suffered countless casualties in order to obtain a single city. Yet, he did it so effortlessly? That's mine, Da Qian's! "Long Aotian glared.
Sima Changkong shook his head. "His Holiness allowed Da Qian to attack Daewon with our alliance. That is to say, Dahan also has the right. Gu Hai didn't send a single soldier, but he fulfilled his promise to the prince. Why? Based on the fact that Daewon's people are loyal to Dahan, there's nothing we can do about it! "
"Sima Changkong, whose side are you on?" Long Aotian said coldly.
"Aotian, don't be rude!" Takeshi Ryūshin said in a low voice.
"Hmph!" Long Aotian snorted.
"Then what should we do?" Takeshi Ryūshin said with a frown.
"I advised the prince not to be too radical, otherwise, it would incite a rebellion, but …!" Sima Changkong sighed.
Takeshi Ryūshin shook his head. "The Thousand Sage Assembly is near, His Holiness sent an urgent order, so I can only speed up the process. I'll slowly pacify them in the future!"
Sima Changkong nodded. "Time is indeed tight. Daewon's 200 cities are too many. Now that Dahan has taken over all the cities, it's difficult to do. It's obviously impossible to stop Dahan from taking over all the cities. We can only try to make them take as little as possible. We have to take over all the cities bordering Dahan as soon as possible. Then, the other cities will be separated by our defense line, and they won't have a chance to join Dahan!"
"Okay!" Takeshi Ryūshin replied.
Han Dynasty, Endless Celestial Capital, Upper Study.
Only Gu Hai and Guqin were in the study.
"Father, Mr. Mo has already taken over 15 cities, but Takeshi Ryūshin's army is also reacting quickly. They're quickly taking over the cities bordering us!" Guqin said worriedly.
"You want to use a defense line to separate Dahan? Ha, you're only starting to separate Dahan now? It's too late. If we can't stop them, just leave it to Mr. Mo! "Gu Hai shook his head and smiled.
"Yes!" Guqin said with a smile.
Gu Hai slowly took out a scroll and handed it to Guqin.
"Father, what's this?" Guqin asked, puzzled.
With that, Guqin gently opened the scroll. There were many complicated diagrams drawn on the scroll. Guqin studied it for a while and said in surprise, "Father, is this a formation? It's not a Go formation? "
Gu Hai nodded. "It's the reason why the Great Slaughter Celestial Dynasty was destroyed!"
"Oh? What's this diagram? "Guqin was slightly taken aback.
"The forging diagram of the entrance to the Asura Mystic Realm!" Gu Hai said in a low voice.
"The entrance to the Asura Mystic Realm?" Guqin said in surprise.
"You'll be in charge of the secret construction according to this diagram!" Gu Hai said in a low voice.
Guqin studied it for a while and said with a frown, "Yes, but the forging diagram of the entrance to the Asura Mystic Realm is as difficult as the floating formation of our Endless Celestial Capital. It's not something that can be completed in a short time. Moreover, it requires all kinds of materials and a lot of time to collect them!"
"I'll arrange for Chen Tianshan to be in charge of collecting these materials. You just have to do your best to build it!" Gu Hai said in a low voice.
"Yes!"
"From the various signs of the Da Qian Celestial Dynasty over the past few years, I feel that something big is about to happen on the divine continent. The Han Dynasty is too weak. In the face of such a big event, the slightest mistake will cause it to be destroyed. Therefore, the Dahan Celestial Dynasty must become strong as soon as possible. This forging diagram of the entrance to the Asura Mystic Realm is a crucial item. There can't be any mistakes!" Gu Hai said in a low voice.
"Don't worry, Father. I'll do my best!" Guqin said Solemnly.
Gu Hai nodded.
"Your cultivation level seems to be rising quickly? You're almost at the Yuanying State? "Gu Hai looked at Guqin.
Guqin nodded. "Yes. There are some secret techniques in the legacy of Old Man Guanqi that have allowed me to cultivate extremely quickly. However, I just have a bad feeling about them!"
"Oh?" Gu Hai was puzzled.
"The secret techniques that I'm cultivating … how do I put it? Er, it seems like … like a secret door. I can't tell what kind of danger it is, but I just have a strange feeling! "Guqin frowned.
"Secret door?" Gu Hai frowned.
Guanqi's ninth son. Perhaps the Ninth Young Master had discovered the secret door and wanted to find a substitute time and time again? Giving the legacy to someone else?
Secret door?
"If it's dangerous, then don't cultivate it. The Han Dynasty has countless martial arts …!" Gu Hai frowned.
Guqin shook his head and smiled bitterly. "How can other martial arts be faster than the one left behind by Old Man Guanqi? Moreover, once you start cultivating, you can't stop! I don't want to change! "
After staring at Guqin for a while, Gu Hai nodded.
Ever since the cities had successfully submitted to the Han Dynasty, the news spread like wildfire to all the cities in the Daewon territory.
Xiyu The Great received the emperor's funeral, but the people didn't thank Takeshi Ryūshin. Instead, they thanked the Han Dynasty.
The people were against the Da Qian. Furthermore, when Takeshi Ryūshin took over the cities, they mobilized even more troops. The people of the Han Dynasty enjoyed good governance, and in a short period of time, more and more cities wanted to join the Han Dynasty.
Of course, there were also those who didn't want to join the Han Dynasty.
When Takeshi Ryūshin's army completely cut off the Han Dynasty's borders and cut off the Daewon Dynasty, the Han Dynasty had taken over thirty-five cities. Including the Kongkong City that was already part of the Han Dynasty, there was a total of thirty-six cities.
In a short period of time, the Han Dynasty's cities had reached sixty.
"Peng!"
In the Dayou Hall, Takeshi Ryūshin slammed his palm on the table.
"Thirty-five cities? A bunch of trash! "Takeshi Ryūshin said angrily.
At the side, Sima Changkong smiled bitterly and said, "Your Highness, actually, the Legion Generals have already done their best. It's only thirty-five cities. We finally cut it off!"
"The Daewon Dynasty only has a total of two hundred cities. Gu Hai is really lucky. Thirty-five cities! That's more than his Han Dynasty's territory!" Long Aotian was also depressed.
Takeshi Ryūshin vented his anger for a while, then slowly suppressed the anger in his heart.
"Forget it. Thirty-five cities it is. Hmph!" Takeshi Ryūshin could only feel helpless.
The Han Dynasty's cities had reached sixty, and its territory had more than doubled.
Boundless Celestial Capital, in the study room.
Gu Hai sat in front of the study table, and a group of Legion Generals stood respectfully on both sides.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I only took thirty-five cities!" Mo Yike smiled bitterly.
"No, Mister has already done very well. Because of Mister, the Dahan's territory has doubled. What else can I blame you for?" Gu Hai immediately smiled.
Mo Yike shook his head and said, "No, without me, Your Majesty can still take these cities. I didn't do anything. It's just a pity that I couldn't take more!"
"More? Haha, Mister Mo, thirty-five cities is already the Dahan's limit, isn't it? Only Mister can control this well. If it were anyone else … Haha! "Gu Hai smiled slightly.
Second Legion Commander Chen Tianshan raised an eyebrow and said, "What? Mister Mo only took so many on purpose? "
Third Legion Commander Binghime was silent for a while and said, "Mister Mo is wise. Thirty-five cities is indeed the limit that the Dahan can take. If we take more, it will make people jealous!"
Gu Hai nodded and said, "The Dahan is still developing. Let's take it slow!"
"Yes!" All the Legion Generals answered.
Just as everyone was discussing, the voice of a guard came from outside the room.
"Your Majesty, the Crown Prince has brought Mu Chenfeng to see you!" the guard said respectfully.
"Oh? Mu Chenfeng? Isn't she in Silver Moon City? Let them in! "Gu Hai frowned and said.
Mu Chenfeng was Elite Hall's Leader Mu. Back in Silver Moon City, she had followed Gu Hai to build the First Zither Tower on this street. Later, she guarded Silver Moon City's property for Gu Hai and was in charge of contacting the young master of Silver Moon Villa, Yun Mo.
Soon, Guqin led Mu Chenfeng into the study room.
"Father! Mu Chenfeng looked for me earlier. The situation is urgent, so I put aside my work and came here, "Guqin said respectfully.
"Oh?" Gu Hai looked at Mu Chenfeng.
"Mu Chenfeng greets the Hall Leader!" Mu Chenfeng said respectfully.
"Mu Chenfeng, did something happen in Silver Moon City?" Gu Hai asked, puzzled.
Mu Chenfeng frowned and looked at everyone in the study room.
"You are all my trusted aides. Speak!" Gu Hai said in a low voice.
Mu Chenfeng nodded and said, "Your Majesty, you used to send messages everywhere and report to me immediately if there was news about Shangguan Hen. I was worried that something might happen on the way, so I came here personally!"
"Shangguan Hen?" Gu Hai's expression changed.
"Yes, Villa Master Yun Mo told me. He saw Shangguan Hen at Silver Moon Sea in Silver Moon Villa's property. There was also a large number of Xuanwu, "Mu Chenfeng said Solemnly.
"Shangguan Hen worked with you for a while in Silver Moon City. Since Villa Master Yun Mo said that he saw him, it can't be wrong. Silver Moon Sea? It's good that we know where he is. "Gu Hai nodded.
"Villa Master Yun Mo mentioned that there was a group of people who went to see Shangguan Hen. The leader seemed to be called … Qing Emperor. That's right, Qing Emperor! "Mu Chenfeng recalled.
"What? Qing Emperor? "Guqin's eyes widened as he exclaimed.
Who was Qing Emperor? Gu Hai had already told Guqin about the information he had found a few years ago. When Gu Hai was still an ordinary person, the Qing Emperor had brought a group of experts to Nine-Five Island. They were the ones who had killed Gu Hai's wife, Chen Xian 'er. It was this Qing Emperor who had caused the disappearance of Gu Tang and Gu Ming of Guqin's four brothers.
Qing Emperor? The Dayan Dynasty's emperor was a powerful man.
Guqin's exclamation stunned all the army commanders. They didn't know what was going on.
"Qing Emperor? Heh! "Gu Hai smiled faintly.
However, no one noticed that Gu Hai had clenched his fists so tightly that his veins were popping out.
