After the figure of Emperor Tongtian disappeared, all the civil and military officials who participated in the morning dynasty hurried away. Soon, Mu Feng was the only one left in the huge Tongtian Hall.

"General of the East? What is the purpose of Emperor Tongtian's move?"

"Is this his temporary reason or is there any other intention? Or is it the idea of ​​Zhao Wuji, the Grand Tutor of the dynasty, who should first praise himself to the sky and then throw him to the ground hard? He will be defeated after his defeat, and then behead himself openly and show himself to the public?"

...

Mu Feng was confused, and while thinking, he walked out slowly, with a lot of thoughts.

Before entering the palace to meet the saint, he thought of countless possibilities; but unexpectedly, Emperor Tongtian not only did not make things difficult for him, but instead granted such a great official position.

General of the East!

That was the overlord who commanded hundreds of thousands or even millions of troops, and controlled all the garrisons of the 18 counties in the East China Sea. Compared with the Jiangling General's Mansion, its power is no less than that, and even better!

Let yourself hold heavy troops. Wou-ji, the Emperor Tongtian and the Grand Tutor Zhao Wuji, aren't they afraid that they will not work hard and will be defeated again, causing turmoil in the East China Sea?

Everyone knows that Xiangshan Academy has always been unrestrained by the Tongtian Dynasty. If you let yourself control so many soldiers, aren’t you afraid that you will take the opportunity to rebel?

Mu Feng was full of doubts. After stepping out of the palace gate, he took a breath of the fresh air outside the palace, and then felt a little relaxed. Just as he was about to strode away, a carriage not far away suddenly came over.

"Mu Feng, we're meeting again!"

A thick voice came, and a steady middle-aged man lifted the curtains on the carriage with a smile on his face. Mu Feng looked sideways and saw that it was no one else, but Situ Han, a master of the Situ family who met in the battlefield of the Heavenly Demons. He was wearing the official robe of a first-rank official of the Tongtian Dynasty. It seemed that his official position was also extraordinary.

"Student Mu Feng, I have met Lord Situ!" Mu Feng quickly clasped his fists and saluted.

Although many years have passed, the other party’s kindness back then has not been forgotten. His treasures, Lotus Terrace Wood Fish and Qingmeng Mirror, are still fresh in memory.

"Last year, I took over the Situ family and became the new head of the family. In the same year, I was promoted to Minister of Rites."

Seeing Mu Feng looking at the official robe on his body, Situ Han understood his doubts and smiled and continued, "Mu Feng, congratulations on becoming the General of the East and the First-Class of the Tongtian Dynasty. This is the first time you have arrived in the capital. It is rare to see you. I will take you there for a ride?"

"Okay, it's better to obey your orders than respect!"

Mu Feng strode onto the carriage, put down the curtain, and the coachman driving the carriage whip and drove away quickly under the escort of a team of escorts.

Situ Han didn't say anything, but now it was the time to come to him suddenly, and he must have something to do with him. He pondered a little, but Mu Feng did not refuse. After a conversation, he realized that Situ Han's experience over the years was quite bumpy.

Back then, after leaving the battlefield of the Heavenly Demons, he was rejected by his clan members because he did not snatch the crystal dragon from the Tamsui Valley and was squeezed out of the core of the family. He was framed in the officialdom and was imprisoned for a year before he was rehabilitated. Later, he went to the Western Regions to reconcile the Tongtian Dynasty and the Dayuan Kingdom, resolved a war, and was promoted to the position of Minister of Rites. In the family, he was appreciated by the old master Situ, and returned to the core of the family with the support of the latter, and became the new head of the family in one fell swoop.

"Congratulations to Lord Situ for being proud. It seems that if you survive the disaster, you will have good fortune!" Mu Feng was very respectful. After learning about Situ Han's experience over the years, he admired him even more.

Situ Han just mentioned these experiences in an understatement. But whether it is injustice, forced rehabilitation, or mission to the Western Regions or becoming the head of the family, is it thrilling, and the dangers in it are really unimaginable for outsiders!

"What a proud look on Mu Feng, compared to you, the palace master, that's far behind! When I first met on the Demon Battlefield, I knew that you would be a fish in the pond in the future!"

Situ Han smiled and was even more amazed at the miracles that Mu Feng had repeatedly created over the years. After pausing, his tone suddenly changed and he said in a deep voice: "But, Mu Feng, although you were appointed as the General of the East by His Majesty, you are glad to congratulate; but do you know the dangers?"

Here comes!

Mu Feng's heart was as clear as a mirror. Knowing that Situ Han had finally talked about the serious matter, he said respectfully: "Mu Feng doesn't know, so please give me some advice!"

"The rebellion of the seventy-two island countries overseas has been a long time ago. Because the distance is too far, our Tongtian Dynasty has been unable to truly grasp the local situation, and it has been unable to subscribe it to the Tongtian Dynasty for a long time."

Situ Han, who was in a high position, knew the situation in the East China Sea clearly. After pausing, he slowly continued: "However, this time, the 72 island countries rebelled at the same time, which is extraordinary. Although Li Wenguang, the commander of the East China Sea Fleet, was a bit indecisive, he was experienced in many battles, read military books, and was good at fighting steadily. He was still a famous general. This time, millions of elite troops were almost wiped out, and there must be something strange. You will inevitably have many difficulties when you go!"

"Sir Situ, what should I do?" Mu Feng calmed down, did not panic, and continued to ask in a deep voice.

Seeing that he was so calm and calm at a young age, Situ Han nodded in appreciation, and did not answer immediately, but asked: "Mu Feng, do you know why His Majesty appointed you as the General of the East of the East this time and asked you to solve this difficult problem?"

"I don't know, please let me know!" Mu Feng answered truthfully, waiting for the other party's explanation.

The question Situ Han asked was exactly the doubt in his heart.

"In this, perhaps Emperor Tongtian and Zhao Wuji, the Grand Master of the dynasty, have other profound meanings, but there are three points that are certain."

Situ Han paused and continued, "First, Your Majesty admires your courage, courage and talent very much. You challenged the Grand Tutor Zhao Wuji as soon as you arrived in the capital. The rumors not only did not make him angry, but were happy; Second, you were originally a poor scholar, but you had only suddenly risen over the years and had no connection with all the forces in the court. You have a clean life experience. This is your deficit and your greatest advantage; Third, it is rumored that the leader of the rebels this time has a great relationship with your Xiangshan Academy. According to legend, he is the junior brother of your master Ye Beigong, Gu Jianyang, who was known as the deadly scholar in the past."

"What, the deadly scholar Gu Jianyang? There is another such master in Xiangshan Academy?"

Mu Feng was shocked. Over the years, he had never heard any student talk about this person. Back then, Master Ye Beigong had never mentioned it before his death.

"That's right, although you are the lord of the first palace, you should call him uncle in terms of seniority!"

Situ Han looked solemn and continued slowly: "Rumor, your uncle was amazingly talented and his cultivation was even better than your master Ye Beigong. But later, for some reason, he suddenly turned out of Xiangshan Academy and never returned to overseas islands. Not only did he succeed in establishing a foothold, he also became the king of one of the island countries, and his power became increasingly large. Rumors he also established the Donghai Academy overseas, claiming to be the Taoist tyranny that truly represents the ancient saints!"

"Tonghai Academy?"

Mu Feng raised his eyebrows, but unexpectedly, things became more and more complicated and difficult.
