"Is that true? Aren't you the one who took the initiative? Why do I see only maids in your palace? You don't even have a eunuch? "Chen Jiu was confused and didn't want to believe Tang Cheng's words.
"Well, Chen Jiu, you don't know. Look at the Tang Empire. With how rich it is now, who would be willing to cut off their underlings and send them in to be eunuchs?" Tang Cheng immediately explained.
"Are you sure you won't waste your political achievements because of this?" Chen Jiu asked again.
"Of course, I can guarantee it," Tang Cheng said solemnly.
"I didn't expect that. Tang Cheng, although you are quite honest, you have a fetish. Okay, I promise you." Looking at Tang Cheng, Chen Jiu seemed to be really looking forward to it. So, he agreed. Who didn't have a fetish?
As an emperor, it was tiring to have to maintain an honest and upright image all day long.
"You must keep this a secret for me, okay?" Tang Cheng said worriedly.
"Don't worry." Chen Jiu nodded and then asked in confusion, "I'm very doubtful. How do you plan to deal with the poison in the country in the future? Do you think I'll just kill them? "
"That's easy. As long as no new poison is introduced into the country, I'll secretly order people to collect the old poison. In less than a year, 90% of the poison will be removed. Besides, after a long time, who won't get tired of looking at the same thing all the time?" Tang Cheng said complacently.
"That's true." Chen Jiu nodded to show his agreement.
"Chen Jiu, I still have one more thing to tell you." Tang Cheng's face was full of shame again.
"Your Majesty, do you want me to capture one for you to enjoy?" Chen Jiu couldn't help but guess. The only thing that could make the monarch of a country so embarrassed was probably that matter, right?
"Chen Jiu, although I have a fetish, I'm not that shameless," Tang Cheng said angrily.
"Then what's the matter?" Chen Jiu asked in confusion.
"It's like this. We've sent a total of ten Elders to get rid of the demoness, but none of them have returned. According to the news we've received, they're not in any danger. They're just staying there for a short period of time. Do you understand?" Tang Cheng said with a red face. "I hope you can bring them back on this trip to Japan."
"You mean they've been bewitched by the demon girl and have forgotten their home, right?" Chen Jiu's the key point immediately. "
"It's like this..................................................................
..... You mean they'll fight with me for those excellent ones? "Chen Jiu frowned and stared at Tang Cheng. He seemed to understand his difficulties.
It's not that he didn't want to send people to get rid of the demon girl, but he didn't dare to do so. The people he sent would either become excellent assistants, or they would fight with his own people and kill each other. That kind of result was simply unacceptable.
"Well, I hope you can understand. Please don't harm their lives." Tang Cheng's face was full of awkwardness. Obviously, he had acquiesced to this matter.
"Well, I'll make sure they'll be fine." Chen Jiu nodded. He knew the task of this trip was more difficult.
"Many thanks. The officials of the Great Tang will await your triumphant return." Tang Cheng suddenly raised his cup to Chen Jiu and drained it.
"Uh, none of you will go with us to get rid of the demon girl?" Chen Jiu was surprised and raised his cup.
"We still have important matters to attend to …" The other officials once more began to hide.
"Fine, Elders. Let's go …." Chen Jiu raised his cup and downed it. He had already made up his mind. If he didn't complete this mission, he would die before returning. He strode forward, looking very imposing as he stepped onto Dragon Avenue and walked out of the temple.
"Officials, please send them off …" Tang Cheng led the other officials to respectfully send off Chen Jiu and the others. They were filled with endless expectation and reverence.
Outside the main hall, Chen Jiu led the 14 elders to bid farewell to Tang Cheng. Under their repeated reminders, they flew into the sky like immortals, stepped into the blue dome of heaven, and disappeared.
"Your Majesty, do you think they'll succeed this time?" Tang Cai couldn't help being a bit doubtful.
"We'll do our best and leave the rest to the heavens. If we succeed, we'll prosper. If we fail, the country will perish. Our Great Tang has already lived up to the Dragonblood warriors' appearance." Tang Cheng sighed.
"I hope that Elder Xiao won't be bewitched," Tang Cai said worriedly.
"Let's go back and drink. We'll wait for the heroes' triumphant return." Right now, Tang Cheng only wanted to use alcohol to numb himself.
"Reporting, Your Majesty, the memorials from the various cities have arrived …" At this moment, a group of armored soldiers arrived on horseback, dragging ten carriages.
"I'm going to faint." Tang Cheng immediately closed his eyes and fainted.
"Your Majesty …" The officials stepped forward, all of them extremely concerned. At present, the Great Tang was no longer peaceful and was constantly in chaos. Just the number of memorials was enough to crush several people to death. It truly hadn't been easy for Tang Cheng to hold on until today.
In the southwest of the Great Tang was a vast and boundless ocean. Its existence isolated the Great Tang from the rest of the world, and no one knew of it. Otherwise, given the strength of their country, they would definitely have attracted the attention of many parties.
Swish swish … On the calm surface of the ocean, several figures suddenly appeared. It was Chen Jiu and the others. After looking at the vastness of the ocean, they immediately took out a map and looked at the island country marked on the map.
"Let's go. I want to see what's so special about this island country." After checking the location and determining the direction, Chen Jiu and the others immediately flew through the air toward the island country.
"Rumble …" Under the fierce waves of the sea, a huge island protruded out, embellishing the sea and bringing light to the heaven and earth.
Flying through the air, they didn't encounter any obstructions. It was dusk, and under the setting sun, a village on the edge of the island country looked like a paradise in a painting. It made people reluctant to leave.
The thatched huts were scattered in picturesque disorder, and the dirt roads in the countryside were winding … Although it was very backward, it was extremely poetic.
Just as everyone was praising the beauty of the island country, a strange sound rang out, causing their jaws to drop. Their good mood was swept away.
"Wa wa wa ha …" Although they couldn't understand their language, Chen Jiu and the others weren't ordinary people. Based on their mental fluctuations, they could accurately detect the content of their conversation.
At the edge of a tree, a burly man and a woman were seen. They were dressed very plainly, and they were talking with all their might. From time to time, a few quarrels could be heard.
"Hyuga Kun, my husband is back. How dare you ask me out? Do you want to die?" The woman scolded with dissatisfaction.
