Heavenly Capital.
Since the Dragon Monarch Imperial Court was only in charge of the Dragon Monarch Realm, there wasn't much to discuss. After an hour, the ministers slowly dispersed. Several ministers followed Ji Yuyu to the Imperial Study. The discussion in the small court was about national affairs.
"Look at what's written here. Punitive expedition ordered by the heavens. Hehehe." Ji Yuyu tapped on the latest Book of Heavenly Secrets and then slammed it on the ground. "You even said that I was licentious and immoral. That's ridiculous!"
The six Imperial Guards stood on the left, while the Crown Prince, Ji Wuyu, stood on the right. The Dragon Emperor stood on the left, and from Ji Yuyu's perspective, the Crown Prince was the Son of Heaven's left hand.
Ji Wuyu said, "Father, why bother with those ghosts? Lihen Heaven was destroyed by Taizu more than a thousand years ago. What can they do now? If we can destroy them once, we can destroy them twice. "
When Ji Yuyu sat down on the Golden Dragon Throne, it was impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry. His eyes were filled with the unique alienation and indifference of an emperor, even if the other party was the crown prince he had personally chosen. "Crown Prince, recently you've been in charge of the war. I've heard that there have been many unfavorable developments. Tell me one by one."
Ji Wuyu said, "Yan Shifang went to the Lianhai Manor, Changfeng's Royal Uncle died in battle, and two experts of the Divine Domain were also killed. Protector Long Qing's army is like a group of dragons without a leader and was forced to retreat. The Hall of Phoenix had just won a great victory, but Gu Qingyou brought Yan Shiyi back to kill them. Now, all the Gu Family members who had sided with us are dead. The allied forces of the Wang and Tang Clans are currently in a standoff with Dragon Order City, and there have been no large-scale clashes so far. "
"Hmph, it's those two brothers again!" Ji Yuyu slapped the imperial desk. "Is there no one in the imperial court who can put them in their place?"
Ji Wuyu said, "Imperial Father, please calm down. They are just two clowns. I have already sent a new commander to the Eastern Heaven Territory at top speed. Even if the Joined Sea Manor gathers all of its former troops, it won't exceed a hundred thousand. With this small number of troops, it won't be able to shake Protector Long Qing's army. It was impossible for Yan Shifang to remain in the Eastern Heaven Territory. The same is true for Phoenix Hall. Their main masters have already been killed by us, leaving only Gu Qingyou to shoulder the burden. What does she have to fight with us? Wei Qi's alliance was already in a state of disintegration and was no longer a cause for concern. However, there are currently two things that are more troublesome. "
"Speak," Ji Yuyu said.
Ji Wuyu said, "One of them is Bu Luo City. The messenger who persuaded the Golden Crow Queen to surrender was killed, which showed that she had no respect for the Sacred Dynasty. It was time to teach her a lesson and let her know that the Sacred Dynasty was not what it used to be! I think that now is the best time to attack Buluo City. We can let the Dragon Subduing Cult take action. "
Ji Yuyu looked noncommittally at the ministers of the six imperial courts. "Ministers, what do you think?"
The head of the six ministers, Zhang Jingfu, slowly stood up. "This subject agrees."
"Does Minister Zhang really think so?" Ji Yuyu stared at Zhang Jingfu.
Zhang Jingfu said calmly, "His Highness the Crown Prince is very determined. If he can take down Buluo City, the might of the Holy Dynasty will shake the Three Realms. The Nine Schools of Confucian orthodoxy will also reevaluate the position of the Holy Dynasty. They will no longer use us as tools like before."
"What do you think, Imperial Preceptor?" Ji Yuyu asked another person.
A dark and skinny old man walked out shakily with the help of a walking stick. Facing the imperial table, he picked up a leaf and licked it. Then, he placed it on his forehead and muttered something. Following that, dark yellow runes appeared on his body. Everyone knew that it was the Imperial Preceptor, Zuo Cheng, who was performing divination using the little-known natural divination method. The result was very accurate. A moment later, everyone saw Zuo Cheng's eyes roll upwards. His body trembled violently, and his expression turned ugly. That was because such a performance usually did not have a good ending. As expected, the leaf suddenly burned to ashes. Zuo Cheng opened his eyes and sighed. "It's too ominous. It's not good to send out troops."
"Impossible!" Ji Wuyu shouted almost immediately, "The Dragon Subduing Cult has the Golden Body of the Great Venerable Master, and the Golden Crow True Flames are just a decoration. Together with the million-strong army of our dynasty, how can we not take down a mere Buluo City?" After taking down Buluo City, his position as the Crown Prince would be unshakable. The entire Three Realms would have to recognize him, not just the Crown Prince of the Dragon Emperor Sacred Dynasty. So, it was not hard to imagine how much effort he had put into taking down Buluo City. It was absolutely impossible for him to give up halfway.
"Your Majesty, let me say something." The Chief Guard of the Sacred Martial Arts Institute, Ruan Wentu, stood up slowly. He spoke in his old but deep voice. After Ji Yuyu nodded, he continued, "Lihen Heaven has been hiding for thousands of years. It's still unknown how much power they have accumulated. Although we've dealt a heavy blow to their power in recent years, who knows if they're pretending to be weak? They've failed once. Now they're here for revenge. No matter how careful they are, they can't be too careful. So, in my opinion, this letter is very important. If all the Realms recover and unite to attack the Dragon Emperor Realm, the consequences will be unimaginable! "
"General Ruan, I'm afraid you don't know my plan for the King of Wei's Territory. That's why you said that," Ji Wuyu said with a smile.
"Please elaborate," Ruan Wentu said.
Ji Wuyu bowed to Ji Yuyu. "That's the second thing I want to say. Only a few people know that Ji Hyun-woon, who inherited the title of Overlord, is a girl. I'm so bold as to ask my father to betroth Duanyang to Ji Hyun-woon. I'll ask Wuyi to expose her, so that the people of the King of Wei's Territory will know their lord is a woman. I believe the Lihen Palace will fall apart under the pressure of internal and external troubles. The core of Wei Qi's alliance is the Lihen Palace. If the people of the Lihen Palace fall apart, how will the alliance survive? At the same time, I'll lead the army to join the Dragon Subduing Cult's troops and attack Buluo City! "
The Chief Guard of the Bright Light Pavilion, Zhuang Kuoting, didn't look like he was daydreaming. When he heard those words, his eyes focused. He said directly, "Hasn't Princess Duanyang been betrothed? The wedding will be held next month. Is it appropriate to send her? "He was the only person in the hall who didn't need to report to Ji Yuyu to speak.
Ji Yuyu's sharp gaze landed on Ji Wuyu. He didn't seem to understand this son of his. He thought of his precious daughter's abnormal behavior recently. She even said that Ji Wuyu would do anything to possess her. He only laughed when he heard that, thinking it was just a quarrel between siblings. "I already knew she was a girl. Back then, in order to save Yan Shifang, she promised me to do one thing for me unconditionally in the future. Your plan coincides with mine, but I also want to know, why Jiu 'er? "
Ji Wuyu said calmly, "Wuyi's cultivation is high, and she's smart. At least she won't be controlled after entering the Lihen Palace. Which unmarried woman in Tianjing can compare to her? As for the wedding, after she completes her mission, we'll send someone to bring her back. We'll just take care of it then. Father, I think that for the dynasty's thousand-year hegemony, sacrificing the happiness of us children is something worth doing. I believe Wuyi thinks the same. "
"Does anyone else have anything to say?" Ji Yuyu looked around at the people in the hall. No one said anything else. After all, the temptation of taking down Buluo City was too great. Seeing that no one objected, Ji Yuyu nodded. "I approve. Crown Prince, go ahead. The million-strong army was raised to deal with Buluo City. It's time for them to use their muscles. The Six Royals will do their best to cooperate with Crown Prince. We must make Buluo City part of the Dragon Monarch's territory! "
"As you command!"
