Chapter 860: The Emperor Paves the Way

After eating pickled fish, return to the studio.

Lin Xi, Shen Mingxuan, and Ruyi held a cup of milk tea each, and said they wanted to watch TV for a while before going online to level up. They also persuaded me to do the same, but I think they just want to drink milk tea and watch variety shows. , any combination of work and rest is just an excuse, so he lay down beside Lin Xi, picked up his helmet, and said, "You guys drink slowly, I'm online, Lin Xi, can I use your leg pillow to go online?"

Lin Xi was taken aback for a moment, and then her pretty face began to blush. Holding the milk tea, her body froze for a moment, not knowing whether to agree or refuse.

Shen Mingxuan glared at me: "No way, let's talk about it someday when Ruyi and I go home and are not in the studio!"

"Okay~~~"

I reluctantly glanced at Lin Xixue's long, slender legs, put on my helmet and went online, but just as I was online, Lin Xi put her hand on my shoulder calmly, as if to accompany me I'm online as well, and it feels great.

...

"Shua!"

The character appeared in the handsome tent, and several completed missions popped up on the handsome case again, all of which were rewards for completing the patrols of the Flowing Fire Legion. No matter how small it is, it’s meat, and I don’t dislike it at all. I accept everything according to the order. For a while, I feel like a landlord and old fortune. Sitting in a small but powerful super army like the Liuhuo Legion, he is very rich!

"rustle……"

With the sound of footsteps, a bodyguard entered the tent and said in a deep voice: "My lord, the lord Neishi in the palace came just now and said that today's court meeting will be held on time. Please come over and join the ministers."

"oh……"

I nodded, thinking that I am going to stand in the courtroom? Logically speaking, what is the equivalent of me, the leader of the Flowing Fire Legion? I can't tell, it's a military position under the command of the Imperial Forest Army, and the one who is on duty in the court hall should be similar to the level of Shuntian Mansion, the executive officer of Fanshu City in the imperial capital, I, the commander of the Liuhuo Legion, don't need to be on duty , since it was called, there must be something wrong.

If nothing else, it's the rebels' business.

So, I tidied up my cloak, got up immediately, took a group of bodyguards equipped by the Liuhuo Legion for the commander, and instigated Wu Xiezhi to go straight to the Wude Palace. The rules of diligence were followed, so before dawn, officials from various ministries in Gyeonggi had already arrived at the side hall on the side of Wude Hall to "office" and prepare for the affairs of the court.

Not long after, the two teams of imperial guards left the Hall of Martial Virtue and stood guard on the outside, while the ministers began to file into the Hall of Martial Virtue. I was among them, with two golden general stars, roughly similar to the legendary second-rank generals, The station is relatively back, but it is in the same row as Wang Shuang, a civil servant. This guy... the Marquis of the Far East is almost as good as me!

...

The ministers took their positions, and in about three minutes, Emperor Xuanyuanying dressed in a black dragon robe, full of royal air, stepped onto the throne surrounded by a group of guards, and sat in the dragon chair just like that.

Everyone shouted long live.

I didn't make a sound, I really couldn't stand the posture in front of me, so I just mixed in with the officials and pretended to be a fake.

"Yesterday..."

Xuanyuan Ying was halfway through his words, and after a few seconds of pause, he said, "The Autumn Harvest Ceremony was successfully held, but... on the way there was an invasion by the remnants of the Shu Kingdom, let's all discuss it, what is the origin of this incident, why Can they enter the royal city?"

Immediately, Shanhaigong Nangong also rushed out, knelt down on one knee, and said: "The Flame God Legion is responsible for guarding the royal city, it is... it is the minister's ineffectiveness, which gave the rebels a chance to sneak into the city."

"His Majesty!"

The other person came out, and it was Dong Yun, the deputy commander of the Yanshen Legion. He knelt on one knee and said, "The majority of the Yanshen Legion's troops left the city yesterday to quell the chaos. The city is empty. This is definitely not the fault of the Yanshen Legion!"

Before the words were finished, another person came out. It was Qiu Baizhan, the commander of the Imperial Forest Army. He knelt on one knee and said, "Your Majesty, the Imperial Forest Army is also responsible for guarding the Royal City. Yesterday...it was my negligence that gave the rebellion an opportunity!"

Xuanyuan Ying sat on the dragon chair, his eyes were solemn, and he didn't say a word.

At this moment, Nangong also turned around to look at me, and gestured with his eyes, but I didn't know what he was signaling.

The next moment, even Qiu Baizhan looked back at me, and said in a low voice, "Jiyue Liuhuo, your Liuhuo Legion is also responsible for the defense of the royal city, don't you want to get rid of it?"

I was at a loss: "What's none of my business?"

Dong Yun was angry, and suppressed his voice: "Jiyue Liuhuo, do you want His Majesty Longyan to be furious?! Immediately kneel down and admit your mistake, maybe Your Majesty can forgive us for our crime of dereliction of duty!"

I couldn't help laughing, and slowly walked out of the crowd, cupped my fists in the center, and said: "Your Majesty, the rebels use the teleportation formation to enter the royal city. This method is impossible to guard against. I don't think anyone can do anything about it."

"Fire in July!"

Dong Yun said angrily: "Are you trying to shirk responsibility? Yesterday, the soldiers of the rebel army went straight to the Qilin Altar, which even directly affected the Autumn Harvest Ceremony. How dare you pretend to be ignorant?"

I spread my hands: "I really don't know."

...

Among the crowd, the veteran Guan Yang came out, clasped his fists and said: "Your Majesty, the old minister was also present yesterday. The performance of the Liuhuo Legion is remarkable. They have completely blocked the rebels from the grand ceremony. You are not qualified to make things difficult for July Liuhuo, and you are not qualified to accuse Liuhuo Corps of any omissions, right?"

Xuanyuan Ying nodded lightly and said, "Fu Yu Gong, what do you think?"

Mu Tiancheng came out and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, I don't know who is responsible for the traitor's entry into the royal city, but it must have nothing to do with the Liuhuo Legion. After all, the area guarded by the Liuhuo Legion is only the imperial palace. Things in the royal city... July I'm afraid Liuhuo won't be able to see it if he grows divine eyes?"

Feng Buwen chuckled, but didn't speak.

I felt guilty, thinking that Prime Minister Bai Yi would not see that I have the eyes of the ten-direction fire wheel, right? This is not good, this supernatural power should be hidden deeper.

"I know."

Xuanyuanying stood up majestically, with a calm look in his eyes, and said: "The outer defense of the royal city is indeed under the jurisdiction of the Yanshen Legion. The rebels can infiltrate the royal city, and then launch a teleportation formation in the city to attack the unicorn altar. The Yanshen Legion has a responsibility The main responsibility, if this is the case, Shanhai Gong Nangong Yi and the deputy commander of the Yanshen Legion Dong Yun, should be fined for three months together."

The so-called penalty salary is probably the most hypocritical punishment. The salary of a commander is only so much, not to mention that Nan Gongyi, who is now the Duke of Shanhai, probably has no more than 10% of his income from salary. The income is all gray, the so-called penalty salary, couldn't be more hypocritical, even if he is demoted one level!

Well, I have punished myself with three cups of stone hammer. The Yanshen Legion was originally an army that Xuanyuan Ying personally controlled. Who would punish his own army?

"As for the Imperial Forest Army."

Xuanyuanying opened and closed his eyes, seeing the goosebumps all over Qiu Baizhan's body, and said: "In the past six months, the Imperial Forest Army relied on their merits, neglected training, even tampered with the Liuhuo Legion's martial arts performance, even so, they were still defeated. Going to fight in the northern border, I am afraid that it will only take a cup of tea and will become food for the strange demon army?"

"Your Majesty, the subject is guilty... the subject is guilty!"

Qiu Baizhan kowtowed again and again, and his forehead soon began to ooze blood. The commander of the Imperial Forest Army is really miserable.

"snort!"

Xuanyuan Ying snorted coldly, and said: "My Xuanyuan Empire respects martial arts, and your Imperial Forest Army is not aware of such low-level things, and you have made many omissions in the defense of the royal city, allowing treacherous evil to infiltrate the royal city. Your Imperial Forest Army is duty-bound, Qiu Baizhan, you should demote yourself and stay in the Imperial Forest Army, if you still cannot lead the Imperial Forest Army into a powerful army, I will replace you."

"Yes, Your Majesty..."

A royal guard stepped forward and directly took a gold star from Qiu Baizhan's armor. In this way, Qiu Baizhan became a two-star general. Like me, this time he can finally be on an equal footing.

"Fire in July."

Xuanyuanying finally looked at me and said: "You used the isolation formation to turn the crisis in the imperial city into a safe place, and you led the Liuhuo Legion to wipe out the villains. I don't have anything to reward you. I will give you the Liuhuo Legion for five months In addition, I will reward you with a thousand inscription-patterned swords, a thousand inscription-patterned shields and two thousand strong spiritual wood bows."

For a moment, my heart lit up, these are exactly what the Flowing Fire Legion needs most, so I cupped my fists and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"For a while, don't leave after the court is over, I have something to tell you."

"yes!"

...

When I returned to the sequence, the civil servants and military generals on both sides expressed their congratulations again and again. In fact, most of the people who were left behind by the emperor can be called "confidantes". Am I going to become Xuanyuanying's confidants?

After about half an hour, the dreary morning meeting broke up and I was left alone.

"All of you, go."

With a flick of his sleeve, Xuanyuan Ying sent away a group of imperial guards, and suddenly Xuanyuan Ying and I were the only ones in the huge Wude Hall facing each other from a distance.

"Fire in July."

Xuanyuan Ying looked at me and said, "Do you know what I am doing to destroy the Silver Frost Legion, and to descend to the Far East Marquis Wang Shuang secretly?"

"..."

For a moment, my mind was a little blank, Xuanyuan Ying was too ruthless, he pushed open the skylight all at once, his words were so bright, he even said such words as rising and falling directly, It made me feel that Xuanyuanying, although he is an emperor, is a man of temperament under the emperor's appearance.

"have no idea."

"snort……"

He smiled slightly: "If you don't transfer Wang Shuang, how can you become the master of the Silver Frost Legion? If you don't cut down the Silver Frost Legion, how can you cover the mouths of those who are jealous of you? I have paved a path for you." Lu, you didn't realize my painstaking efforts at all?"

I looked at him and suddenly felt that this face was a little strange.

Where did I not discover your painstaking efforts, I even thought you were a lyb at one point, do you know your Majesty?
