The emperor stood up, and the sharp arrows flying all over the palace fell down.

Everyone looked at the emperor in shock. No one expected that the person with the most inner strength in this hall was not the Eighth Prince who was still trying to heal his wounds, nor the old man in python robe standing with a sword in his arms, but the emperor who had been sitting on the dragon throne.

The emperor has always been protected like a fragile porcelain bottle.

Shen Xiaojia was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped to the ground. When the emperor was still a beggar, he had felt the inner breath of the old beggar countless times. There was nothing in it. How could he suddenly have such deep strength?

Strong inner strength!

The emperor seemed to have read through Shen Xiaojia's thoughts. He slowly climbed down the stairs and said calmly, "This internal power of mine is called the Nine Turns of Pure Yang Magic. It goes retrograde once every nine years. After every time the internal power goes retrograde, there will be a period of time."

If you become a cripple, you won’t have a trace of internal energy left in your body... Unfortunately, I just completed the ninth revolution a few days ago.".z.br

The Prime Minister Zuo was startled for a moment, then smiled with relief, then walked away happily, sat on the steps, lowered his head and said, "It turns out that everything was planned by His Majesty."

"Didn't I remind you?" Emperor Qing walked over, patted Zuo Xiang's shoulder and said, "I have reminded you on Daming Lake and in this palace... your actions recently have been very serious.

In line with my wishes, I thought I had a tacit understanding with you, but you didn't know you didn't understand it at all."

Wei Changgeng, the left prime minister, wanted to argue a few words, but felt the powerful aura of Emperor Qing, but in the end he just said dullly, "I am...ignorant!"

Emperor Qing chuckled, then continued to move forward. He casually pointed out two fingers and broke the threads wrapped around the second and fourth princes. He said coldly, "Shame on you! I have told you a long time ago that only when you are strong can you

Always invincible... Martial arts, scheming, and popularity are all means. There is no superiority. Don't pick up the sesame seeds and lose the watermelons. It's a pity that you didn't listen to a word. You only played with those children that everyone likes.

I’m really disappointed with the things I received. I’ll go to the clan’s mansion tomorrow to get thirty pieces of money, and then I’ll go back home and think about it.”

The fourth prince Zhu Yuanzhi's eyes darkened, and he was still a little unconvinced in his heart, so he rubbed his neck and said, "Father, I don't understand this very well!"

"Your grandfather came from a martial arts background. After making a name for himself as a beggar, he went to become a monk in a temple in Yanzhou. Later, he went to Heifengya and made some connections. At first, he followed your grandfather to conquer the world with several generals.

, are all from the Jianghu sect." Emperor Qing glanced at the fourth prince with a cold look, and explained in a nonchalant manner, "If you want to ban martial arts, first go to the Mausoleum of Taihe and ask your grandfather if he agrees!

"

The second prince said with a serious face, "We can conquer the world immediately, but we cannot govern the world with the sword in our hands."

"You are familiar with history books. Hundreds of years ago, there was a country that worshiped culture and suppressed martial arts." Emperor Qing stretched out his right hand, slowly clenched it into a fist, and said in a calm tone, "As a result, he was beaten so hard by the northern barbarians that his head was lifted.

If you don't get up, the economy and culture are indeed at their peak, but in the end they are just making wedding dresses for others. Civil and military affairs cannot be biased. If the force is too strong, the country will not be able to live in peace. If the civil service is too strong, conspiracies will be everywhere. If you want to govern a country well, what is the point?

It’s so easy as the book says!”

The second prince and the fourth prince knew that the emperor was deliberately instructing them. After today, no matter whether the third prince is dead or alive, it is impossible to compete with them for that position. Emperor Qing also knew that the country would still have to hand over three princes in the future.

In the hands of one of them, the boss only knows how to fight and only likes fighting. Obviously, he is no longer within the scope of Emperor Qing's consideration. Then only the two brothers are left. If you teach more now, you will be able to see more clearly in the future.

Who is suitable to sit in that chair?

Seeing the thoughtful expressions of his two sons, Emperor Qing nodded happily, thinking that he was his son after all, and he was not too stupid. He coughed lightly, glanced around the hall, and sighed quietly, "Yes.

It’s time to clean up this mess..."

Then, the emperor walked towards the palace gate and issued decrees one after another.

"Princess Anle is a smart and elegant lady. Now she has reached the age of marriage. She has specially given the son of He Qulai, a famous general in Lizhou, a phoenix crown and a rosy robe, and ten boxes of gold and silver... Set off tomorrow to Lizhou to get married!"

"The eldest princess is a virtuous and virtuous person. She has done a great job in rescuing the driver. I will reward you with thousands of pieces of silk and satin."

, a hundred hectares of good land, choose a day to leave Kyoto and return to the fief to receive the reward!"

"Chao Ya, the commander of the Imperial Guards, loyally protects the Lord. He has been granted the title of General Huaihua. Three days later he will lead the army to Crescent Pass. No return will be allowed until Loulan is destroyed!"

"The general eunuch Liu Xi is old and no longer suitable for the position of general manager. Te'en allowed him to return to his hometown with honor, and Cao Huachun took over the position of general manager. Little Stool became the deputy general manager..."

Just as the emperor finished speaking, two high-pitched voices suddenly came from both sides of the hall door. Little Stool and Cao Huachun, who had disappeared for a long time, quickly came to the front of the hall door and bowed deeply to the emperor.

Go down, "Thank you, Lord!"

When the two of them appeared, countless soldiers immediately sprang out from around the palace, darkly surrounding the third prince and the rebels. The group of people at the front each held a carefully improved weapon in their hands.

The big-nosed brother is also among them.

After the third prince saw those fire guns, his face suddenly turned pale, he took a breath of air and said, "Firearms Camp!"

The rebels also began to panic, and some even looked maliciously at the third prince sitting on the white horse, whispering to his companions.

Emperor Qing walked to the gate of the palace and looked at all this with an expressionless face. "It took so much money to build the firearms camp. I just happened to pull it out for practice today..." He gently patted Cao Huachun and Xiaostool on the shoulders.

, "Get up, you have worked hard these days, especially the little stool. Every day, you are huddled in the corner of Yongxin Hall. You can't eat well, and you can't sleep. You have to go back and forth between Daming Lake and Miyagi City to deliver news. It's really tiring.

, just take a good rest next time!"

Little Stool's eyes heated up, and he said with a hint of tears, "As long as I eat well and sleep well, Little Stool doesn't matter!"

Cao Huachun glanced at the small stool with cold eyes, and immediately buried his head deeper with gratitude on his face, "The Holy One is serious, these are the duties of a slave!"

Emperor Qing hummed lightly, slowly raised his head, glanced at the third prince with some disgust, and said coldly, "The third prince, Zhu Yuanhao, is brave and fearless. When in danger, he stood up and broke into the rebel army single-handedly."

Unfortunately, he sacrificed his life! I will pursue the posthumous title...King of Liao!"

Turning around, Emperor Qing turned his back to the stunned third prince. Amidst the screams and the roar of guns, he stared at Shen Xiaojia with a smile on his lips as he was about to escape quietly from the hall with Mo Chunfeng and Mo Chunyu. He continued,

"The traitor Shen Xiaojia deceived the emperor and conspired to rebel. Now his title of Blood-clothed Marquis has been revoked, and he has been taken into custody in the Heavenly Prison. He will be interrogated by Song Shangtian, the Minister of Punishment. After questioning his accomplices, he will be beheaded at the Meridian Gate for public display!"

Shen Xiaojia froze, turned around and looked at Emperor Qing with a puzzled face, and said with an ugly face, "Third brother! Have you soaked in Daming Lake for too long and your brain is flooded! We are in the same boat!"
