The third day of Zhong Shan's return!
Zhong Shan, who had been away for more than a hundred years, presided over the morning court assembly once again!
After the ministers returned three days ago, they became the heroes of the Daikon State and received the respect of almost everyone. Their families had already prepared for their funerals and their mourning halls had already been set up. However, the Holy King had returned and turned the tide. After these ministers returned, they naturally enjoyed the attention they had never received before.
The ministers realized that in these two days, their companions had all become gentler and their descendants had all revealed looks of worship. This made the ministers extremely happy.
Everyone knew that they had survived and that the Daikon State would be able to see the clear sky from now on!
Everyone's contributions would definitely not be erased.
Only thirty percent of the ministers were left. In the future, as long as these thirty percent did not make any huge mistakes, they would all receive the best treatment in the Daikon State.
On the third day of the court assembly, the ministers went to the palace early. All of them were filled with excitement.
When the ministers entered the main hall one after another, almost all of them were slightly stunned.
Lin Xiao, Shui Wuhen, and Shui Jing had already arrived early. At this moment, there were two more people, Xiao Wang and Zhao Suxiang! The Daikon State's Legion Commander that had not been seen in a hundred years? They were all back?
"Your Highness, Prime Minister, Great General, two Legion Commanders!"
The officials exchanged a few polite greetings, but no one continued to speak. They stood respectfully in two rows. At this moment, only thirty percent of the original officials were left and the main hall looked a little empty. However, this thirty percent of the ministers were the most precious wealth of the Daikon State.
"The Holy King has arrived ~ ~ ~ ~ ~!"
A eunuch shouted loudly.
"The Holy King will enjoy immortal blessings forever and live as long as the heavens!" The ministers bowed excitedly.
Zhong Shan was wearing a flat imperial crown and a dragon robe. He suddenly appeared in front of the dragon throne and slowly sat down.
"Rise!" Zhong Shan said lightly.
"Thank you, Holy King!" The officials immediately stood up and looked at Zhong Shan excitedly.
"While I was away, all of you were able to scrupulously abide by your duties and serve the country and the people. I am very gratified. When the Daikon State was at its most critical moment, all of you still held fast to the Daikon State and supported the Daikon State. You even defended the Daikon State with your lives. You are the pillars of the country. Today, I will specially bestow rewards. I hope that all of you will continue to do your best for the Daikon State!" Zhong Shan said solemnly.
"We bow to you until death do us part!" The officials bowed respectfully.
At this time, the eunuch from before took out an imperial edict and read it.
"Minister of Revenue, for the needs of the insects, you will be conferred the title of First Class Marquis of Hu 'an. You will be rewarded with a Great Deity Weapon and ten thousand Deity Stones!"
"Thank you, Holy King!" A muscular man immediately stepped forward and said.
"Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, Yun Li, is conferred the title of Second Class Marquis. He is rewarded with three Heaven Immortal Equipment and eight thousand Immortal Stones!"
"Thank you, Holy King!" A thin man stepped forward and said.
… … …
… … … …
… …
The eunuchs kept on reporting. In the two side halls of the Longevity Hall, eunuchs kept on bringing out the rewards on trays. This day was destined to be the most exciting day for the officials.
In the past two days, Zhong Shan had given out rewards according to the merits of the officials!
Compared to the Immortal Equipment and Immortal Stones, the most exciting thing for the officials was the title of Marquis. From Fourth Class Marquis to First Class Marquis, all the officials in the hall were conferred the title of Marquis. There had never been such a large-scale conferment of Marquis before, but this time, Zhong Shan was generous and conferred the title of Marquis. This was also for the officials in the future to see.
As long as you were loyal to the Daikon State, the Daikon State would not mistreat any of your officials.
The officials were extremely excited as they received their titles. In the end, everyone looked at Shui Wuhen, Shui Jing, and Lin Xiao.
The three heads of the Daikon State in the past hundred years. What kind of rewards would they receive?
"Great General, Lin Xiao, will be conferred the title of Third Class' Xiaori King '. Five Great Immortal Equipment and five Great Immortal Pills! Eight hundred thousand Immortal Stones! "
"Thank you, Holy King!" Lin Xiao stepped forward and said calmly.
Xiaori King, the second King of the Daikon State? Although he was only a Third Class King, he was still a King!
"Prime Minister, Shui Jing, will be conferred the title of Third Class' Feather Deity King '. Five Great Immortal Equipment and five Great Immortal Pills! Eight hundred thousand Immortal Stones! "
"Thank you, Holy King!" Shui Jing stepped forward and said calmly.
Everyone looked at Shui Wuhen. In terms of merits, Shui Wuhen had the most merits. How would he be rewarded?
"Third Class' Zichen King ', Shui Wuhen, will be conferred the title of Second Class' Zichen King '. One Gu Xian Equipment, four Great Immortal Equipment, four Great Immortal Pills, and one million Immortal Stones!"
"Thank you, Holy King!" Shui Wuhen immediately said.
Gu Xian Equipment? The officials looked at Shui Wuhen in astonishment. The other rewards were still within their expectations, but the Gu Xian Equipment! The Gu Xian Equipment that they had just seized from King Qi Ming was also rewarded to Shui Wuhen?
Everyone looked at him with envy. However, his merits were not as great as Zichen King's. The officials vowed in their hearts that they would work harder for the Daikon State in the future. Maybe one day, they would also be rewarded with a Gu Xian Equipment.
After rewarding all the officials in the main hall, the eunuchs reported the rewards for nearly six hours. These rewards were all for the soldiers and city lords who were fighting the enemy outside.
Although they could not hear it, the imperial edict would definitely be sent out to all corners of the world.
"Rewards complete!" The eunuch shouted.
"Holy King, you will enjoy immortal blessings forever and live as long as the heavens!" The officials stood respectfully.
"Shui Wuhen, report the situation at the frontline!" Zhong Shan said indifferently.
"Yes, Holy King. Apart from Taiji Holy Court, a total of six Celestial Empires attacked our Daikon State. Due to the six Celestial Empires' previous decapitation operation, we are extremely short of high-ranking generals at the frontline. Now, we have lost more than fifty percent of the original land of the Divine Prefecture. Three days ago, Holy King's voice spread throughout the world. Nearly ten percent of the lost cities have once again entered the chaotic battle. It should not be long before we can return to the Daikon State!" Shui Wuhen said.
"Decapitation operation?" Zhong Shan's tone was slightly heavy.
"Yes, the six Celestial Empires did not hesitate to send out Great Immortals!" Shui Wuhen frowned.
Zhong Shan gently knocked on the dragon throne. He thought for a while and said, "How many Great Immortals did they send?"
"A total of three Great Immortals!"
"Mm, since that's the case, there's no need for these three Great Immortals to continue living!" Zhong Shan said indifferently.
Zhong Shan's tone was very light, but the officials could hear a hint of coldness in it. Was the Holy King angry?
"Lin Xiao!" Zhong Shan's tone was solemn.
"This official is here!"
"Prepare for ten days. After ten days, take twenty percent of the Imperial Army and set up the Four Divisions Formation to attack the east of the Eastern Sea and expand the Daikon State by a hundred million li!" Zhong Shan ordered.
"This official obeys!" Lin Xiao excitedly said.
The battlefield was what Lin Xiao needed the most. Expand the Eastern Sea by a hundred million li? Was this a counterattack against the Celestial Empires?
"Shui Wuhen!"
"This official is here!"
"Prepare for ten days. After ten days, take twenty percent of the Imperial Army and set up the Four Divisions Formation to attack the south of the Southern Sea and expand the Daikon State by a hundred million li!"
"Zhao Suxiang, prepare for ten days. After ten days, take twenty percent of the Imperial Army and set up the Four Divisions Formation to attack the west of the Western Sea and expand the Daikon State by a hundred million li!"
"Xiao Wang, prepare for ten days. After ten days, take twenty percent of the Imperial Army and set up the Four Divisions Formation to attack the north of the Northern Sea and expand the Daikon State by a hundred million li!"
"This official obeys!" the three replied in unison.
Four directions, a hundred million li of territory? Was the Daikon State starting their counterattack? A counterattack against the six Celestial Empires?
As for the lost territory of the Daikon State, Zhong Shan was completely confident that there was no need for the Four Division Commanders to collect it. With the passage of time, it would quickly return to his hands. Because those who had fallen were the people of the Daikon State. The Daikon State's territory. In just a few short years, no one would be able to conquer it! However, the enmity of this invasion could not be left unavenged!
The Daikon State was beginning to get angry!
"Send troops to all the cities. You may use them as you wish!" Zhong Shan once again gave an incomparably relaxed order.
"Yes!"
The courtiers could all hear Zhong Shan's fighting spirit. The Daikon State's conquest had officially begun.
"Shui Jing!" Zhong Shan called out once more.
"This official is here!"
"I want you to survey the Daikon State's imperial examinations and recruit talents from all over the world. I want a large number, a large number. Do you understand?" Zhong Shan solemnly said.
A large number? The courtiers all nodded. Indeed, if the Four Division Commanders could really pacify the six Celestial Empires, there would be a lot of vacancies among the officials.
Only Shui Jing understood. He raised his head in slight astonishment. The Holy King had said 'a large number' twice. This was not as simple as just filling up the six Celestial Empires. The Holy King's goal was even greater? Even further?
"Yes!" Shui Jing firmly replied.
Because Shui Jing knew that the following mission was even more difficult than the Four Division Commanders destroying the Celestial Empires!
Zhong Shan made another series of arrangements. The court assembly lasted from morning till night. Only then did the first day of the assembly finally end.
And once the assembly ended, the enormous machinery of the state was quickly put into motion.
The courtiers retreated. Zhong Shan continued to sit alone on the dragon throne.
The main hall appeared slightly gloomy. It was empty except for Zhong Shan. But if one looked closely, they would be shocked to discover that in the center of the main hall, there were four black figures kneeling.
The four black figures were all wrapped in black robes. It was unknown when they had appeared. And they were faintly discernible, looking extremely sinister.
"Daikon State's Shadow Guards, Commander of Heaven! Greetings to the Holy King! "
"Daikon State's Shadow Guards, Commander of Earth! Greetings to the Holy King! "
"Daikon State's Shadow Guards, Commander of Xuan! Greetings to the Holy King! "
"Daikon State's Shadow Guards, Commander of Yellow! Greetings to the Holy King! "
The four black figures spoke in an extremely refined voice.
"Xiu!" Zhong Shan threw out four jade scrolls!
The four black robed figures quickly caught them.
"Four directions. This is the name list. Follow the name list and assassinate all of them! Leave no survivors! "Zhong Shan said calmly.
"Yes!"
"You may leave!" Zhong Shan said calmly.
"Yes!"
The Commander of the Fourth Division disappeared from the hall with a sway of his body. It was as if they had never been there. It was incomparably strange and mysterious.
The Daikon State's Shadow Guards! They were directly under the orders of the Holy King, Zhong Shan. They were hidden in the shadows, so much so that other than a few people in the Daikon State, none of the officials knew of their existence.
After three days of research, Zhong Shan understood everything clearly. After a day of planning, the Daikon State officially began to show its prowess in the Wind Tomb territory. It brandished its sharp sword and pointed its tip at the world!
Zhong Shan naturally made sufficient arrangements for the four commanders to send out their troops. At the very least, there was no problem with their safety. The next step was time. As long as there was enough time, Zhong Shan believed that he would be able to obtain everything he wanted.
Sitting alone on the Nine Dragons Heavenly Throne, Zhong Shan closed his eyes and lightly tapped the armrest of the throne. He looked very calm and indifferent, but Zhong Shan's mind was thinking about the entire world. He was calculating the four territories and plotting against the heavens.
