After reviewing the system rewards, Xia Taige didn't linger and immediately summoned the civil and military generals.

The next moment, a white light flashed, and the four people suddenly appeared in front of Xia Taige.

"Liu Bowen greets Your Highness!"

"Fang Xuanling greets Your Highness!"

"Li Cunxiao greets Your Highness!"

"Li Jing greets Your Highness!"

As four greetings rang out, Xia Taige looked at the four people in front of him with burning eyes and said repeatedly:

"Very well, there's no need for such formalities, you four!"

Since Xia Taige ascended to the position of Crown Prince, he has not interfered in the court affairs, only appointing a Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of Works.

Now, the arrival of Liu Bowen and Fang Xuanling has completely solved Xia Taige's future troubles in reviewing memorials.

It just so happens that her future father-in-law is about to retire. After the two of them get to know each other for a while, he can take over Lin Dongshi's position and let Xia Taige handle the affairs of state.

Only then can the cabinet truly flourish among the singers of Xia Tai.

Without fear of betrayal, Xia Taige could delegate all the power of the Great Xia Dynasty to the cabinet.

Of course, this will have to wait until the two of them have completely taken control of the cabinet.

Li Jing and Li Cunxiao, one a brilliant strategist and the other a capable general, perfectly complemented Xia Taige's lack of control over the imperial army.

In this way, important military matters were entrusted to the two men, and Xia Taige no longer had to worry about military affairs.

Moreover, Xia Taige was completely ignorant of important military matters in ancient times, let alone military strategy.

Moreover, the ancient saying that "an army marches on its stomach" is not without reason. If Xia Taige were to come, he wouldn't even know how many troops or how much food they would need, let alone how to command them.

The saying "An incompetent general can bring ruin to an entire army" is no exaggeration.

"The four talented individuals may rest temporarily in the Eastern Palace, and will attend the morning court with me tomorrow!"

Whether or not they can get rid of the troubles of court politics in the future depends on the four people in front of them, so Xia Taige naturally has to settle them down.

Moreover, each of the four was Xia Taige's idol, and each of them left a profound mark on the long river of history.

"Thank you, Your Highness!" the four replied, and were then taken away and settled by Mei Jian and his companions.

In the future, the legend of these four people will likely be inseparable from the entire Chinese continent.

After the four people went down to settle down, Xia Taige looked at the Iron Pagoda. After thinking for a while, Xia Taige decided not to summon it for the time being, but to keep it in the system space so that it could be used as a surprise weapon in the future.

Moreover, with the Iron Pagoda's 6,000 men, once summoned, the daily consumption of food and provisions alone would be a huge expense.

Moreover, with 6,000 Ironclad Cavalrymen each equipped with three riders, that's nearly 20,000 warhorses, and the daily consumption of horse feed alone is unknown.

Then came the Xuanyuan Sword. He had heard its legends in his previous life, and now that the real Xuanyuan Sword was right in front of him, how could Xia Taige not be excited?

"System Summoning!"

The next moment, a golden sword appeared on Xia Taige's body.

Xia Taige examined it carefully and found that, just as the legends said, one side of the sword was engraved with the sun, moon and stars, and the other side with mountains, rivers and plants. On the hilt, one side was inscribed with the art of farming and animal husbandry, and the other side with the strategy of unifying the four seas.

After examining it for a while, Xia Taige couldn't help but twirl the sword. As Xia Taige channeled his spiritual energy into the sword, the Xuanyuan Sword trembled slightly, as if expressing joy.

Xia Taige's mind raced, and he stretched out his arm while shouting, "Go!"

The next moment, the Xuanyuan Sword was drawn from its sheath and shot out in the direction Xia Taige was pointing.

Wherever the Xuanyuan Sword passed, everything was cleaved in two, with an exceptionally clean cut.

The Xuanyuan Sword's display of power startled Jian Jiuhuang, who was in a secluded courtyard. The next moment, Jian Jiuhuang flashed into the main hall, his eyes fixed on the Xuanyuan Sword floating in mid-air.

Saliva involuntarily dribbled from the corner of his mouth, but Jian Jiuhuang was completely unaware, staring intently at the Xuanyuan Sword while muttering to himself:

"A fine sword! A divine sword! An unparalleled divine sword!"

This scene made Xia Taige, who was standing to the side, chuckle.

For a swordsman, nothing is more tempting than a peerless divine sword, and coincidentally, the Xuanyuan Sword is that peerless divine sword.

After a long while, Jian Jiuhuang finally came to his senses from the Xuanyuan Sword.

While wiping his drool, he cheerfully asked Xia Taige:

"Your Highness, what kind of sword is this?"

"Xuanyuan Sword!"

"Xuanyuan Sword? What a great name!"

Upon hearing this, Jian Jiuhuang's eyes lit up.

"Well, Your Highness, may I touch this sword?"

"Sure, as long as it's willing!"

After saying that, Xia Taige pointed to the Xuanyuan Sword.

Upon hearing this, Lao Huang was immediately delighted. For Lao Huang, even with a divine sword, it was still a piece of cake for him, given his peak Grandmaster level strength.

However, what Jian Jiuhuang didn't know was that just now, Xia Taige had infused the Xuanyuan Sword with a unique spiritual energy from the terrestrial immortal realm.

The next moment, Jian Jiuhuang sneaked forward a few steps, and when he was less than half a meter away from the Xuanyuan Sword, he suddenly pounced out, trying to grab it in his hand.

However, the Xuanyuan Sword suddenly lunged forward, causing the sword Jiuhuang to miss its target.

Immediately, the Xuanyuan Sword trembled slightly, as if it were angry. In a flash, the front of the sword lashed out at Jian Jiuhuang's buttocks. The next moment, a tremendous force pulled Jian Jiuhuang out through the gate and he fell into the courtyard.

Then, the Xuanyuan Sword transformed into a beam of sword light and returned to its sheath.

Outside the door, a violent scream echoed throughout the entire East Palace.

A moment later, Xia Taige looked at Jian Jiuhuang, who was groaning softly in front of him, with a mixture of amusement and exasperation.

"Alright, shut up. Here, are you still going to watch?" Xia Taige said, handing the Xuanyuan Sword to Jian Jiuhuang, intending to comfort Jian Jiuhuang's wounded heart.

Unexpectedly, when the Xuanyuan Sword was handed to Jian Jiuhuang, he jumped away like a startled rabbit.

"Your Highness, please forget it. This sword is not meant for me!" Jian Jiuhuang said as he stepped back.

Hearing this, Xia Taige rolled her eyes and ignored him.

He then opened the system, intending to claim the Eastern Depot.

The next moment, a white light flashed, and three figures appeared in front of Xia Taige.

"Greetings, Your Highness!" The three knelt respectfully on one knee upon seeing Xia Taige.

"No need for formalities!" Xia Taige gently raised his hands to help the three of them up.

After a careful examination, Xia Taige realized that the three people in front of him, Grand Commander Cao Zhengchun, was at the peak of the Grandmaster realm, while the other two were at the late stage and the middle stage, respectively.

Overall, they are all quite capable, enough to guard the imperial city. The Imperial Guards are handling matters within the court, while the Eastern Depot doesn't have as many things to deal with these days.

"Cao Zhengchun, take this imperial token and lead the Eastern Depot guards to the palace to take over the imperial city!" After saying this, Xia Taige handed the crown prince's token to Cao Zhengchun.

Upon hearing this, Cao Zhengchun accepted the token with both hands and bowed his head in agreement.
