Chapter 292 Return to the World
The fact that Zhu Qifeng's family was implicated and imprisoned did not cause much disturbance.
In the eyes of the world, this is really a normal thing.
Whether the world respects or not, Chen Qing doesn't really care.
As long as Chen Qing gave an order, they had to carry it out.
Chen Qing looked around and found that apart from the kingdom of water, only a few evil cultivators had mixed in, and he was a little dissatisfied.
I told Xuanmang a long time ago, and asked him to send some evil cultivators to watch the ceremony, otherwise, how could they be sure that they really returned from the realm of death to the human world?
Not sure how to counterattack the dead world with King Gu and enter the trap set by Chen Qing?
And outside the alchemy room in the city, just as Yan Lie arrived here, he was stopped by Dan Yangzi's disciple: "Yan Lie, it's actually you, get out of here quickly!"
"If Senior Brother Chen Dan sees you, he must tear you alive!"
Yan Lie showed an embarrassed smile, "Haha, I just came here to take a look, I'll just leave now."
Turning his head, he saw his father Yanxing behind him.
Yan Lie and Yan Xing walked on the street with few people, this place is a secret place, ordinary people can't get close to it.
Yan Xing asked: "Lie'er, do you have a bad relationship with Chen Dan?"
Now Chen Qing has only one son, which is Chen Dan, and the relationship with Chen Dan is not good, which makes Yan Xing worried.
Yan Lie said awkwardly: "That's not true, Senior Brother Chen Dan said that my Gu worms were fire-type Gu worms, so he invited me to go to make alchemy, and as a result, my flame directly burned the alchemy furnace."
"The alchemy furnace is still burning, the flames cannot be extinguished, and by the way, the entire alchemy room was burned down."
"The current alchemy rooms are all newly built."
Yan Xing asked: "Such a big mistake, can King Wen punish you?"
Yan Lie shook his head, "Master never asked, so he shouldn't care, but senior brother Chen Dan, now I'm not allowed to go near the alchemy room."
While chatting, the two came to the yard where Yanxing was received, "It used to be uncle and the others. This time, why did grandpa send father here?"
Yan Xing said: "Until you were studying under King Wen's school, so my father specially asked me to come here, so as to make friends."
The two sat down, Yan Lie suddenly asked: "Father, what do you think about the throne?"
Yan Xing said: "How else can you look at it? Your uncle has many strong men under his command, and his father gave him the general power, and the civilian officials are all dominated by your second uncle alone."
"It is estimated that if there is a mistake in the father, it should be your uncle and the second uncle fighting for the king."
"By the way, well done, why ask this."
"Could it be that King Wen hinted at you?"
"You can't get involved in this matter. Don't think that you can be proud and arrogant now that you are in the Profound Entrance Realm!"
Yan Lie said: "Father thinks too much, Master never said anything, I just left home for too long, I don't know the situation, so I asked casually."
"Father, please rest here, I still have to prepare to welcome Master back to the world."
After three days, Su Yi and Xuan Mang began to hold the ceremony to welcome Chen Qing in King Wen's palace.
Sitting in Tingyun's carriage, Chen Qing heard that the ceremonies outside were almost done. When she stepped on it, the flowers bloomed in the void, and she had already appeared on the throne.
Chen Qing glanced around, Su Yi, Xuan Mang, the generals and the two national teachers were all there.
Chen Qing waved his sleeves and sat down, and everyone hurriedly bowed, "I'll wait, see King Wen!"
Everyone bowed down, seeing the former elders Li Changqing and Qi Tianfeng kneeling in front of him, Chen Qing suddenly felt a little dreamy.
Seniors in the Ascension Realm actually have to rely on themselves to make a living.
King's order, granted by God!
Usurper, sin and blasphemy!
"Flat body!"
Everyone got up.
Su Yi said: "The envoys of Xuanzhu countries brought most of the envoys of the country to pay homage to King Wen!"
Outside the main hall, You Huang and Yan Lie folded their arms, watching the envoys from various countries enter the main hall in batches.
You Huang said: "Li Guo and Ye Guo didn't dare to send Li Shang and Ye Chen's father."
"That's right. King Wen's status is higher than other kings. When princes and sons see King Wen, they still need to kneel in front of King Wen."
"The king does not worship the king."
"After this kneeling, it is completely out of touch with the throne."
"I once bowed down to King Wen, it will be a stain."
"You and my father can't escape."
Yan Lie stretched out his hand and patted the railing in front of him, leaving a paw print on the gold-cast railing, "Hmph! So what, as long as all the kings of Nanli kneel before their master, then it won't be a stain. "
You Huang chuckled, "Stop talking about such annoying things."
"Senior Brother Li Shang has sent you a letter. In that battle, you will be the main attacker."
"Let you break through to the Heaven-reaching Realm as soon as possible, otherwise it may be difficult to take on the task of the main attack."
Yan Lie nodded, "The Heaven-reaching Realm is not difficult, it will take a few more years of work."
"It's just why I was asked to attack. Could it be that the master is going to rebuild the mountains and rivers?"
"My Suzaku King Flame will not be extinguished until it is completely burned."
You Huang said: "Uncle Wushang has received news that the land, rivers and mountains of the Land of Water may not be usable."
Yan Lie nodded, "If so, I understand."
"By the way, I'm the main attacker, what about you?"
You Huang said: "I will follow Lord Yun and block the retreat of the Kingdom of Water in the South China Sea."
At this moment, You Huang pointed towards the steps in front of the palace hall, "Look, the people from the kingdom of water are here."
Not long after the envoys from the Kingdom of Water entered the palace, Yan Lie and You Huang heard a shout, "Bold!"
Soon, some soldiers rushed in and escorted the envoys of the Kingdom of Water to prison.
Yan Lie inquired slightly, and Biao knew the reason, "The envoy of the Kingdom of Water actually said that there is no queen in the Kingdom of Wen, so he specially presents the daughter of the King of Water as the Queen of the Kingdom of Wen!"
You Huang shouted angrily: "It's really presumptuous!"
"The princess of the country of water is also worthy of being a master?"
The princess of the country of water has always had bad rumors.
Seeing many courtiers scatter in all directions, Yan Lie hurriedly said: "Let's go, Master is about to get angry, go to Yu Xuer's place to avoid it!"
Chen Qing was almost confused by the kingdom of water, what is going to happen?
Calling Su Yi, Chen Qing came to the dungeon of King Wen's palace, saw Lan Jingting again, and walked away, Chen Qing said coldly: "I know what you want, there is no one around now, only you and me, if you have anything to say, just let me know." Open it up."
Lan Jingting smiled and said: "I knew that King Wen is not a reckless person."
"I'm here, indeed, to kiss."
Chen Qing said angrily: "Are you finished?"
Lan Jingting said: "Could it be that King Wen doesn't want to know about the betrothal gift?"
Chen Qing had no interest at all, only felt that Lan Jingting was humiliating herself.
Lan Jingting smiled confidently: "Could it be that King Wen isn't even interested in the position of True Monarch?"
At this point, Chen Qing looked at Lan Jingting carefully, and suddenly understood something.
He didn't want to listen to Lan Jingting's nonsense anymore, he had already guessed the key to this matter.
Whether the Congress of Water will be wiped out is actually not very critical, Guozuo has come to an end.
Jiuxuanguan asked himself to remove the country, not necessarily because of God Miao's instruction.
So, this matter is very simple.
This is basically the test of God Miao and the true kings, to test whether he, the newly promoted King Wen, can resist the temptation in front of the position of the true king.
This is a test for him.
In other words, the assessment of a new King Wen.
After thinking about this, Chen Qing suddenly felt relaxed.
Before, I thought that the Kingdom of Water had some special hole cards, but now it seems that it was purely bewitched by Tai Sui.
In this way, it is simple.
Chen Qing, who understood the twists and turns, strode out of the dungeon, "The envoy of the Kingdom of Water was bewitched by the evil spirits, intending to assassinate the king. Three days later, Ming Zheng's punishment, beheaded in the street, and his soul will be wiped out!"
After speaking, Chen Qing turned his head and went back to King Wen's palace.
Time to move on to his other plans.
Back to King Wen's palace, Chen Dan was the only one holding a book of alchemy in the backyard of the huge palace, revising the contents.
"What about the other three?"
Chen Dan put down the alchemy book in his hand, "Father, you are all practicing with Yu Xu'er."
Chen Qing sat by the pond, "Call me over here, let me see if you have worked hard recently."
The other three came over resentfully, they were instinctively in awe of Chen Qing.
Chen Qing glanced, "You are all at the Profound Pass Realm, and you are now at the Profound Pass Realm as a teacher."
"I'll give you some pointers."
Chen Qing stood up, waved his sleeves, "The four of you go up together."
Yan Lie said: "Master, this is a palace, if it is broken."
Chen Qing chuckled, "It can't be broken, let's fight with all our strength, don't hold back."
Yu Xu'er is not afraid of anything, "Master has an order, this disciple will be offended!"
Then, before Yu Xu'er could see how Chen Qing made a move, she fell to the ground with a cry of pain, "Oh, it hurts, it hurts. Master, it hurts!"
The other three made moves, but within a single move, Chen Qing easily defeated them.
"Sure enough, compared to the kings who have experienced the battle for kings, you now only have superficial appearances and empty king Gu, but you haven't exerted their power."
Yan Lie and You Huang's complexions turned red, and they felt a little ashamed.
Chen Dan made a move, but it was just making up the numbers. Both Yan Lie and You Huang knew that Chen Dan was only good at Dharma alchemy, and he was not very strong in actual combat.
Chen Qing said: "Fortunately, there is still a battle to destroy the country, which can give you some opportunities for actual combat."
"Get ready, dig out the potential of your King Gu with your heart, and create more usages."
"Don't keep setting fires and summoning rain and snow, it's nothing new."
"Think of a way to concentrate the power of your King Gu at one point and explode!"
After giving some pointers to a few people, Chen Qing walked towards the palace, ready to start dealing with today's political affairs.
Sitting in the side hall, under the stage are Su Yi and Su Yi's subordinate officials.
In today's Wen Kingdom, Wen wears a unicorn and Wu wears a white tiger.
Important ministers like Su Yi wore official robes embroidered with four unicorns.
Chen Qing sat down, and Su Yi asked: "Your Majesty, the envoy of the Kingdom of Water, did you kill him directly?"
"After all, before the country was eliminated, he was still the son of a country."
Chen Qing said: "There is no need to ask about this matter. I have made up my mind and vowed to be the enemy of the Kingdom of Water."
Su Yi said: "That's fine, the military will probably be very happy with this."
Chen Qing asked: "Why?"
Su Yi said: "Our country of Wen has not yet established a territory, and the soldiers who have made great military achievements are all looking forward to the land of the country of water."
Chen Qing said: "Separate enfeoffment?"
"I have no intention of dividing."
Su Yi's face was solemn, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid this move is a bit inappropriate."
"Soldiers, they are all waiting for enfeoffment."
"They all look forward to having their own family residence and guarding the royal family."
Chen Qing shook her head, "Secretization is too old for me."
"Military merit, let's replace it with grace, and give their descendants the qualifications to become Xuanguan."
"Anyway, over the past few years, the average quality of casual foundation building has become worse and worse, and I don't have much interest in absorbing it."
"Wen Guo's quota will be given to these heroes' children."
Chen Qing said earnestly: "Su Yi, I don't like the majority, and I don't like the sect. I want the entire Wen Kingdom, but only one King Wen!"
"I want me to give an order, and the entire Wen Kingdom will obey the order, instead of holding a large department, and then convening tribal practitioners to discuss and make decisions."
"I want my order to be implemented in every corner of Nanli."
"I want the entire Wen Kingdom for my use!"
What Chen Qing wants is a Wen country with extreme centralization, not a loose and feudal system like other countries.
What he wants is a state machine, not numerous ministries to defend him, King Wen.
Su Yi said: "But that would require a lot of financial resources."
"Tribal enfeoffment, the king only needs to entrust the land, and he can enjoy most of the offerings every year to support the royal family's practice."
"But if you want to achieve your majesty's intentions, you must arrange things for every practitioner and pay a salary."
Chen Qing said: "I know what you mean. If it is divided into enfeoffments, the royal family does not need other expenditures, and even only needs to collect most of the offerings. There is only entry and no exit."
"But that will also cause problems, that is, most of them attack each other and have serious internal friction."
"Moreover, not every major tribe can have a shrewd leader who can lead the entire tribe to grow and develop."
"I intend to control the entire Wen Kingdom with the court of Wen Kingdom, and all things will be controlled by the court!"
"Under unified control, people make the best use of them, and everyone has the opportunity to display their talents."
"Other countries can't do it, but our Wen country can, because Wen country is a brand new country."
Su Yi solemnly said: "It may be difficult to do it in other countries."
"But our country of Wen has pills and Gu books, and a large number of production monks may be able to do it."
"I need to discuss with the two national teachers and Xuan Mang, and calculate whether our current treasury can afford such a huge salary."
Chen Qing stretched out his hand to take the tea from the maid, "Send someone and call them, yes, Ting Yun also called, you guys, give me a good life."
Su Yi walked out of the hall and arranged for the officials to summon Xuanmang and the others, but she thought in her heart: It seems that I, the prime minister, may become the real prime minister with real power.
In fact, among the nations, the position of prime minister is more like representing the king's favor to a family than authority.
What the prime minister needs to manage is not the whole country, but only the royal city.
The way they manage the country is to go to various major ministries to collect offerings.
Now, he clearly felt Chen Qing's extraordinary desire to control.
Chen Qing seems to want to build the entire Wen Kingdom into a whole, rather than a kingdom where many ministries defend the royal family.
In fact, this was entirely due to his overthinking. Chen Qing simply felt that the enfeoffment system was too backward.
Compared to enfeoffment and independence, Chen Qing prefers a centralized country.
If he didn't control the dead world, then he might not have this idea.
But now he holds the power of the dead world in his hands, so he thinks he can try it. (end of this chapter)
