Chapter 360 Sitting in the Imperial Palace
The news that Commander Liu asked for leave for two days quickly spread in the ears of the guards.
It is unusual for Commander Liu to ask for leave, but the strangest thing is that Jiang Li actually took the place of Commander Liu in Renhuang Palace.
"It turns out that Renhuang's duties also include sitting in the Renhuang Palace." The veteran guard suddenly remembered that Lu Renhuang seemed to often sit in the Renhuang Palace.
Jiang Li, like a retired veteran cadre, strolled around the center of the Human Emperor's Hall with his hands behind his back to see how much power of faith had accumulated in the bronze tripod, touched the seat in the center of the hall, and then sat down.
"Speaking of which, what should the Renhuang do when he sits in the Renhuang Palace?" Jiang Li realized that this was his first time sitting in the Renhuang Palace.
He was inexplicably guilty, feeling sorry for Commander Liu.
Just as Jiang Li was looking for someone to ask him what he should do, he saw a group of guards wearing the same uniforms coming to the hall with sunny smiles on their faces.
"Hello, Lord!"
The guards yelled in unison, the emperor's guards were only a few hundred people, but they shouted tens of thousands of people.
Not only that, Jiang Li noticed that there were more and more guards, and it seemed that even the guards who were not on duty today came over.
"Hurry up, hurry up, there is something important, hurry up and come to the Emperor's Palace!"
"What's the big deal, I'm resting today, I want to spend time with my wife and children."
"There's so much nonsense, and my wife and children can't run away. When can't I be with you? Today, the palace master is sitting in the palace of the emperor, will you come?"
"Go, of course!"
The guard who got the news immediately comforted his wife, put on his clothes and rushed back to the Hall of the Emperor.
This guard has been in the job for hundreds of years, and the number of times he has seen Jiang Li can be counted on the fingers.
I heard that Taoist disciples have seen Jiang Li more times than him.
…
"Everyone is normal, don't make a fuss, just treat me as Commander Liu, and I will do what Commander Liu does." Seeing the eyes of the guards, Jiang Li was a little nervous, and felt that they were not much different from the female cultivators of the Shangsi Society.
The Human Emperor's Palace maintains the order of Kyushu, allowing Kyushu to maintain competition, but it will not create vicious competition and self-destruct its future.
A guard took a step forward: "Master, I have something here that originally required Commander Liu to make a decision."
"explain."
"The Dayong Dynasty and the Wuyue Dynasty are planning to jointly hold a monk competition. Before the competition, the monks are going to sign the certificate of life and death, hoping to get permission from the Human Emperor Hall."
Both the Dayong Dynasty and the Wuyue Dynasty believed that there were great horrors in life and death, as well as great opportunities, and the trials of life and death could improve a monk's state of mind and cultivation.
The two dynasties often held such competitions.
Many monks also believe in this kind of philosophy, and they like to walk between life and death, so they will travel thousands of miles to participate in the competition in Dayong Dynasty and Wuyue Dynasty.
Even Jiang Li has participated in this kind of competition many times and gained a lot.
"Let me take a look." Jiang Li took the report compiled by the guard and reviewed it carefully.
The competition rewards are very rich, enough to attract those monks who are not afraid of death. The competition rules are more perfect than when Jiang Li participated in the competition.
"Yes, but to sign the life and death certificate, you need to test the monk's mind, audio and video, to prove the monk's voluntary participation in the competition, and you can't open a casino with the life and death of the participating monks as a bet."
"As ordered."
Jiang Li knew that some monks were afraid of death, but liked to watch other monks fight to the death.
The participating monk thought it was a trial of life and death, but he didn't know that his life and death were already doomed.
Jiang Li had participated in a competition where his hands and feet were passive. Fortunately, he made a temporary breakthrough, and coupled with the skills he hadn't used after practicing, he won the competition.
Even so, he was hunted down by the dealer for several days after the game.
One guard retreated, and then another stepped forward: "Master, Qingqiu Kingdom and Dawu Kingdom are constantly at odds, and there may be war in the near future."
The guards of the Human Emperor's Hall are not all in the Human Emperor's Hall, they are scattered in various countries, pay attention to the movements of various countries, and prevent large-scale wars.
When the Great Wei Dynasty and the Mengjiang Dynasty launched a war because of the Fairy Hongchen, the guards reported it to Zhang Konghu. Zhang Konghu saw that the matter could not be handled by himself, so he reported it to Jiang Li.
Neither the Qingqiu Kingdom nor the Dawu Kingdom are imperial dynasties, but they are also big countries with a long history. There are many integrated monks in the country. A war between these two countries will inevitably cause tens of thousands of deaths.
Qingqiu Country is the country of the little white fox on the shoulders of Qin Chaos, and Da Wu Country is the hometown of Zhang Konghu.
"What was the cause of the war?"
"Some people in Qingqiu were dissatisfied with the rule of the monarch Nine-Tailed Sky Fox, and colluded with the Great Wu Kingdom to assassinate Nine-Tailed Sky Fox, which caused Nine-Tailed Sky Fox to disappear."
"The monarch is missing, and the Great Wu Kingdom hopes to take this opportunity to annex the Qingqiu Kingdom. According to calculations, 800,000 monks will die during the annexation process. This does not take into account the follow-up Qingqiu people's resistance and the **** suppression of the Great Wu Kingdom."
"The Great Wu Kingdom proposed to Renhuangdian that if Qingqiu Kingdom can be annexed, the tax paid to Renhuangdian will be increased by three times, and it will last for a hundred years."
"Three times? How generous." Jiang Li sneered. The war compares monks and spirit stones. After the war, the people's livelihood is depleted and the treasury is empty. Where does the Dawu Kingdom get money? It is nothing more than overdrafting the treasury or squeezing the people.
"Is the monarch of the Great Wu Kingdom or Zhang Konghu's elder brother?"
"yes."
"Still as self-righteous as ever."
The Great Wu Kingdom is a country of the Wu Clan. There is also a hierarchical order within the Wu Clan, and the highest rank is the royal family in the Wu Clan.
Zhang Konghu is the son of the previous king of the Great Wu Kingdom, and he has the royal blood of the Great Wu Kingdom, but the royal family of the Great Wu Kingdom despises Zhang Konghu for being dull and thinks he is unbearable.
After the death of the previous king of the Great Wu Kingdom, Zhang Konghu had just grown up, and he didn't have the strength to compete for the king, nor did he have the brains.
Zhang Konghu's elder brother became the king of the Dawu Kingdom, and drove this obscene demented brother out of the Dawu Kingdom to make a living by himself.
After Zhang Konghu left the Dawu Kingdom, he met Commander Liu. Commander Liu felt that Zhang Konghu was a talent to make, so he taught him carefully.
Zhang Konghu lived up to expectations, stood out from the guards and became the commander.
After hearing the news, the monarch of the Great Wu Kingdom changed his attitude drastically. He was very kind to Zhang Konghu and even named him a prince.
No matter how stupid Zhang Konghu is, he still knows who is really good to him and who is hypocritical. He has been ignoring the king of the Great Wu Kingdom.
Zhang Konghu's so-called family visit every year is just to visit his mother who is buried in Dawu Kingdom.
Although Zhang Konghu has a cold attitude towards the monarch of the Great Wu Kingdom, the monarch of the Great Wu Kingdom always feels that blood is thicker than water. For Zhang Konghu's sake, the Human Emperor Palace will turn a blind eye to what they do.
For example, the Qingqiu country was annexed this time.
If Commander Liu is here, he will euphemistically say that Zhang Konghu of the Great Wu Kingdom is the commander of the Human Emperor Hall, not the prince of the Great Wu Kingdom.
And Jiang Li didn't look good towards the monarch of the Great Wu Kingdom: "Tell the monarch of the Great Wu Kingdom that if you dare to start a war, I will fight directly."
"As ordered."
Jiang Li thought of Qin Luan, if Qin Luan realized the identity of the little white fox one day, and wanted to help her regain the throne, this is probably something that the Great Wu Kingdom would not want to see.
Clashes between the Qin Rebellion and the Great Wu Kingdom are inevitable.
