Transmigration begins with archery training

Big man.

Chang'an, Tianyong City.

Wujiang Palace.

Sun Li held the Crimson Lotus Blade in her fair and slender hands, concentrating on practicing her swordsmanship. To date, she was still at the Great Perfection of the Profound Elephant Realm and had not yet broken through to the Martial Saint Realm.

"This sword technique is as chaotic as a lotus flower and as fierce as fire, but in reality, it requires finding stillness within chaos and stability within intensity. The same principle applies to breathing. Come on..."

Chen Sanshi stood behind the Imperial Noble Consort, pointing out every move, every breath, and every detail.

This is the full guidance of the number one martial artist in the Eastern Continent, a treatment even his disciples don't receive.

pity……

The siblings Sun Li and Sun Buqi were quite different. Sun Li was diligent in her youth but lacked talent, while Sun Buqi was talented but extremely lazy.

Now, Sun Buqi has become a Martial Saint, but Sun Li is still stuck at the Profound Elephant Realm, struggling to break through, which is truly worrying.

"Sister."

Chen Sanshi said softly, "I have prepared the rare and precious materials. Once you advance to the Martial Saint level, you can start trying to open the Twenty-Four Divine Realms."

Sun Li twirled her sword in a dazzling display, then sheathed the Crimson Lotus Blade. Her expression was slightly somber, and she managed a forced smile: "You know, my ambition lies not in cultivation."

"How about that?"

Chen Sanshi immediately retorted, "Mortals have limited lifespans, and Senior Sister has no spiritual roots. The only long-term solution is to seize the hope of martial arts and strive to break through to the level of True Power as soon as possible."

"..."

Sun Li did not answer, but simply bowed slightly and said, "Your Majesty, I obey."

"Eh?"

Before Chen Sanshi could understand what was happening, he saw that the other person had already left.

He had no choice but to go to the inner palace behind the Wujiang Palace and find the Empress, who was doing needlework, hoping to help supervise Sun Li while he was away.

"Your Majesty, please don't rush Sister Li. She knows what she's doing."

Gu Xinlan put down her needlework and said softly, "It's during His Majesty's absence that Sister Li is all alone and quite lonely."

"Although she usually takes Yunxi and Yunhuan with her, the more she does so, the more... Does Your Majesty understand what I mean?"

"Ah."

Chen Sanshi said thoughtfully, "It is my negligence that has led to neglecting my senior sister all these years."

"Yeah."

Gu Xinlan continued, "The officials in the court are also submitting memorials every day, saying that they want to cultivate more imperial heirs and strengthen the imperial family."

"Sister Lan".

Chen Sanshi suddenly thought, "Why don't you try cultivating the incense and deity path?"

Breaking through to the second realm of the incense-burning deity path can also extend one's lifespan.

"May I pass?"

Gu Xinlan gently shook her head: "I really know nothing about cultivation, and I'm afraid I can't even understand the strange and unusual words and phrases involved."

"Ok."

Chen Sanshi didn't say anything more.

According to his understanding, anyone who practices the incense and deity path needs to be "devout," and after reaching a certain level, they become "divine messengers," belonging entirely to the religion and even losing their own identity.

This applies to both the righteous path and the evil god path.

That night.

Chen Sanshi returned to Yonghe Palace in Qinghua Palace of the inner palace.

This is Sun Li's temporary palace. He plans to stay here for the next period of time, taking advantage of his free time to make some more moves and try to have another imperial heir.

The next morning.

Chen Sanshi changed into a dragon robe and went to the Taiji Hall of the Daming Palace for the morning court session.

"See Your Majesty!"

"Long live my emperor! Long live!"

"..."

"When there is something going on, we will start, and when there is nothing going on, we will retreat."

After the usual procedures, the formal court session began.

Needless to say, the overall situation is thriving, the national treasury is full, the financial resources are abundant, and it has an army of 2.8 million, of which more than 400,000 are elite troops.

"Your Majesty."

Xu Wencai stepped forward: "The matter of Nanxu relinquishing its imperial throne and submitting to our Han Dynasty has been properly settled. It is expected that Fan Shuzhen will officially leave the city to hand over the imperial seal in ten days. Qi Cheng is currently near the capital of Nanxu."

"On the other hand, Dongqing's attitude was very good at first, but when it came to execution, they changed their tune and even set up an ambush, causing our army to lose more than a thousand soldiers."

"Dongqing".

Chen Sanshi tapped his fingers lightly on the dragon throne, recalling information in his mind: "If I remember correctly, the current emperor of Dongqing is a young emperor who is only eighteen or nineteen years old?"

"Exactly."

Xu Wencai said, "Several years ago, the late Emperor Suiyuan of Dongqing took the initiative to become a vassal state, but the current young emperor joined forces with the royal family to seize the throne. Although he is young, he is quite shrewd."

“Give them a time limit.”

Chen Sanshi said in a deep voice, "If they are still unwilling to submit by then, I will go there myself."

"I will make arrangements immediately."

Xu Wencai added, "Does Your Majesty wish to personally attend the surrender ceremony in Nanxu recently? After the surrender ceremony, troops should be gradually deployed to the southern border of Nanxu according to the original plan."

"I will arrange it myself."

Looking at the huge map of Dongsheng Shenzhou on the side of the main hall, Chen Sanshi knew that some preparations could be started soon.

He added, "Many of you have contributed to the pacification of Nanxu, and I will reward and punish you fairly."

"towards--"

The court session ended with the eunuch's booming voice.

After handling some miscellaneous matters, Chen Sanshi boarded the Shuhu Dragon Carriage and flew directly south from Chang'an, arriving in Nanxu a few days later.

After finishing his business at Luoxia Mountain, Qi Cheng, a disciple of Wolong, immediately returned to Shenzhou to begin the process of accepting the surrender of Nanxu. Under his welcome, Emperor Tianwu led several thousand cavalrymen to the gates of the capital.

"Buzz, rumble—"

The city gates were wide open.

Emperor Fan Shuzhen of Southern Xu changed his dragon robe to a python robe, and led his civil and military officials out of the city to kneel and welcome him, holding up the emperor's crown and the seal of Southern Xu.

"See His Majesty Emperor Tianwu!"

Fan Shuzhen looked somewhat dejected, with bloodshot eyes that hadn't yet faded. His voice betrayed his resentment and helplessness: "Your subject, Fan Shuzhen, wishes to be a subject of the Han Dynasty for all eternity!"

"Get up."

Chen Sanshi personally helped him up, saying, "I will keep you in Chu Jing City so you can be the King of Nanxu."

"Your Majesty, I thank you for your divine grace!"

Fan Shuzhen, who was already middle-aged, kowtowed heavily. When he raised his head again, he seemed to have aged twenty years in an instant. Looking at Emperor Tianwu in front of him, he felt as if he had been in another world.

Back then, when the two of them confronted each other at Hulao Pass, he was a prince, while the other was just a general.

More than a decade later, his identity underwent such a dramatic transformation.

Chen Sanshi invited him onto the imperial carriage, and they rode together straight into the capital. The army followed and marched straight in. From then on, there was no more Nanxu in the world. The Han Dynasty, which had one capital and thirty-six prefectures, became one capital and sixty-two prefectures.

Inside the capital of Chu, he ordered officials from the Ministry of War to bring him a map.
