'Pah-ta-ta.'
For a moment, Zhu Wuji, who was at a loss, staggered back several steps.
"Your Majesty..."
Fortunately, Shi Qing beside him was quick to help him up. Otherwise, with his size, he would have collapsed and sat there in disgrace.
"He, he, he...how dare he go on a killing spree in Shu County?"
As he said this, Zhu Wuji's mind flashed back to the analysis he had just confidently stated. Suddenly, he felt as if Xu Shan had slapped him in the face.
Don’t dare to kill people?
I killed so many people that the city of Wanzhou became a river of blood!
Are you afraid of the envoys sitting on the altar, the disciples of the Beggar Gang, and the local garrison?
I led my troops from Dongxu Road to Wanzhou Avenue, where corpses were everywhere and people were wailing!
Far away from the capital, without the protection of the Heavenly Master and the Divine Machine, are you being cautious?
Fuck you, I’ll chop you off if we disagree!
With a royal sword hanging from his waist, even the king of heaven has to call him "Dad".
In Wanzhou City, will the local people share the same hatred for the enemy?
Now, he has slaughtered the 'Witch God Dharma Image' in public and is being worshipped as a war god, alright.
Prestige, unparalleled!
Some slaps don't hit the face, but they still hurt.
"Xu Shan's actions today are not only about killing people, but also about destroying my heart."
Since half a month ago, when His Majesty issued the decree for the imperial envoy to prepare to enter Sichuan...
The whereabouts and every move of Xu Shan and others were coveted by all forces in Shu County.
Now, he has just entered Shu for less than a day...
They are rampant in Wu Gorge and domineering at the ferry, and now they are killing people like crazy in Wanzhou.
In this matter, if the Shu Palace does not fight back in time, the seemingly united Shu County will not fight on its own, but at least it will no longer be as obedient as it is now.
"Did you see all this with your own eyes?"
Shi Qing, still a little bit unbelieving, continued to ask.
"Yes, it was Magistrate He who sent it over here swiftly, eight hundred miles away."
"Also, Magistrate He also said..."
"Imperial Commissioner Xu, you have arrived to investigate the rebellion of the former subordinates of the Northern Marquis. Instruct Prefect He to hand over the sealed files and accounts as soon as possible."
"Prefect He is also hesitant. Please let the King of Shu make the decision!"
Hearing this, the King of Shu turned his head and looked at the Princess of Shu.
They were the ones who planned the rebellion of Beibohou's former subordinates.
Involved in multiple murders.
He even declared to the court that the grain that should have been offered to the emperor had been stolen by him. Now he was entrenched in southern Shu and had a covetous eye on the entire Shu County.
It was for this reason that the Shu Palace once again submitted a petition to the court, refusing to pay taxes, grain, horses, or iron ore...
They were even shameless enough to ask the imperial court for money and food.
And the group of Jingjia troops that entered the capital were attributed to the former subordinates of Beibohou.
Now, Xu Shan wants to investigate the case thoroughly and get to the bottom of it. He's obviously trying to stir up trouble!
However, since they have done it, they have already eradicated the problem.
"Notify Magistrate He, ignore him!"
"No! Your Highness, please do not act on impulse. Otherwise, it will give the imperial court a reason to send troops."
"Now, under the premise of being unsure about the attitudes of the Ning Palace and the Longxi Li family, we must first stabilize Xu Shan and his group of bastards."
After saying this, Shi Qing arranged, "Notify Magistrate He and have him pretend to obey but actually disobey the order. If that doesn't work, then hand over the organized files to Xu Shan."
"Anyway, they're all dead and there's no evidence. I don't believe he can find out anything."
"Yes."
After the guard left, the King of Shu said coldly, "Princess, if we don't fight back in this situation, where will the Shu Palace's reputation be?"
"We must fight back, of course. But never in the name of the official."
"The princess means..."
"Hundreds of Beggars' Sect disciples were brutally slaughtered. How could the Beggars' Sect let this go?"
"Disciples of the Beggars' Sect from various cities in eastern Shu marched to Wanzhou to protest. Amidst the chaos, Imperial Envoy Xu was assassinated by a former subordinate of the Northern Marquis."
"How did this turn out?"
Upon hearing this, the King of Shu's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Not bad!"
"Even if Xu Shan is still able to kill, can he kill a hundred or a thousand?"
"The Beggars' Sect leader, Huang Ruyan, has a grudge against him for the murder of his father. Now that old and new grudges have been aroused, he will definitely send his masters to kill him."
"All we need to do is sit back and watch the fight."
When Zhu Wuji finished speaking, Shi Qing beside him quickly replied: "Before that, we have something else to do in advance."
"Oh? Princess, you mean..."
"After Jinyiwei's deputy captain Lu Ning completely defected to Imperial Envoy Xu, we had to be on guard. After all, he was previously a member of the third and fourth battalions of the Jingjia Army."
"In the military, he has great prestige."
"What if... he brings these two battalions of troops under the command of Imperial Envoy Xu? That would be like adding wings to a tiger."
"More importantly, these two battalions are stationed at Guyan Ridge, between Jiangzhou and Wanzhou. If we ride as fast as we can, we can reach Wanzhou in just one day."
Hearing this, Zhu Wuji nodded heavily and said, "This is easy. The Jingjia Army is already involved in treason. Let Jiangzhou's commander, Li Cheng, use this as an excuse to disarm them and trap them in Guyan Ridge."
"Very good, very good!"
"Princess, go make the arrangements. I'm a little tired."
"it is good."
After Zhu Wuji retreated back into the palace, Nanny Shi, who had been standing respectfully beside Shi Qing, cautiously asked, "Is this move by the princess intended to protect against the Shu County nobles?"
Hearing this, Shi Qing showed a cold smile.
"He Zhishan, if he wants to borrow the imperial envoy's sword to break the shackles we have put on them, he will definitely secretly strengthen Xu Shan's power."
"If Xu Shan controls these two battalions, he will have the capital to challenge us."
"This is something the local nobles would be very happy to see."
"We have to take precautions!"
When Shi Qing finished speaking with a cold face, Nanny Shi quickly replied: "Princess, you are very thoughtful and far-sighted."
"He Zhishan, we must be on guard!"
"Princess, this old servant just received a piece of news from the Prince of Shu's Palace."
"Ok?"
"He Yun is pregnant."
'boom.'
Hearing this, Shi Qing's scalp exploded. His eyes were filled with jealousy, envy, and hatred.
As a native of the Miao territory, she has been living with poison and witchcraft since she was a child. Due to an accident, she has lost her fertility.
So, after living in the Shu Palace for many years, she still hadn't given birth to a child for the King of Shu. This was her biggest worry!
To the extent that she secretly poisoned the women who were later recruited into the King of Shu's palace, fearing that these demons would "take advantage of their sons to gain status".
"How could this happen? Didn't we already cast a spell on that bitch He Yun?"
"I'm not very clear on the details. I only know that in the month or so since the princess returned to Coffin Mountain, a miraculous revivalist [Living Buddha] arrived in Shudu."
"It is said that he is the direct descendant of the Western Regions Tantric Buddhism."
"After learning of this, He Yun ordered people to find him. It was at that time that she gained the favor of the King of Shu."
Hearing this, Shi Qing gritted his teeth and said word by word, "Are the few Golden Wizards who stayed with that bitch useless?"
"Pass the order down. No matter what means they use, I will never allow He Yun to conceive an illegitimate child."
"Yes!"
