One person, one sword, I have guarded the lonely city for 70 years

Chapter 275 Holy Wrath

Zhang Yue was a little surprised to hear that Song Yun was so sure, temporarily suppressed the anger in her heart, and when the two walked out of the palace, she asked impatiently:

"Your Majesty will not allow Xiexie Guard to expand? Where did you get the news? Is it reliable?"

Song Yun smiled and said: "There is no source of information, I guess."

"You!" Zhang Yue's eyes widened again, and Song Yun waved her hand to stop her before she could attack.

"Let me ask you first, how long has the Xiexie Guard been established?"

Zhang Yue raised her head slightly, and proudly said: "Zhuxiewei lives the same life as the country. It was established when the country was founded, and it has been [-] years so far."

Song Yun nodded, "That's right, because Zhu Xiewei's duties are special and irreplaceable, so the team can exist for a long time."

"But I see that the history of other troops is not long. After thousands of years of existence, they either change territories and responsibilities, or are directly disbanded, so they don't last forever."

"That's true, but so what?" Zhang Yue became puzzled, "It's common for troops to change, what does this mean?"

Song Yun smiled, "Your Majesty once said a word - there is no family with a thousand years in this world."

"Without a thousand-year-old family, can there be a ten-thousand-year army?"

"This—" Zhang Yue was a little dazed for a moment.

Song Yun continued: "Zhuxiewei can intervene in various official affairs and investigate any suspicious incidents. It has great power, and it has been doing so for 4 years."

"The generals of all dynasties have always been very wise. They often clashed with local officials and were disliked by others, so as to restrain themselves and gain the trust of the emperor."

"However, the situation has changed in recent years. The harm of evil spirits has been taken seriously, and local officials are willing to cooperate with the Xiexie Guard. As a result, the influence of the Xiexie Guard has greatly increased."

"If such an army can be expanded, then the power will be too great, and His Majesty will definitely not allow it."

Zhang Yue opened her mouth, but didn't know what to say.

Song Yun patted her on the shoulder, "Speak to General Nangong, don't think about the expansion, if there is not enough manpower, let the local government help, so that the emperor can rest assured."

Zhang Yue was speechless all the way, and when she returned to the headquarters of Zhu Xiewei, she sighed:
"You may be right. The application for expansion has been submitted several times, but His Majesty has been shelving it. It is likely that he will not agree."

"However, how did you find out? Don't you call yourself a hermit in the mountains? Why are you familiar with government affairs?"

Seeing Zhang Yue looking at him suspiciously, Song Yun just laughed.

"I just look at the problem from His Majesty's point of view, so I can naturally come to this conclusion."

"General Nangong should also understand this, but he is not reconciled. After all, he is too short of manpower."

After hearing this, Zhang Yue sighed repeatedly, regretted for a long time, and suddenly realized something was wrong.

Her attention was successfully diverted by Song Yun.

"If you don't expand it, you won't expand it, but why are you contradicting His Majesty in public? Isn't this courting death?" She shouted angrily.

But at this time, Song Yun had already returned to his room, closed the door, could not hear anything, and finally calmed down.

……

Deep in the imperial city.

Qi sat alone in the study, with a gloomy face, facing the omnipotent instrument on the table, wondering what he was thinking.

A few eunuchs stood far outside the study, their heads lowered all the time, not daring to show their air.

Everyone knew that His Majesty would not be in a good mood today. It was obviously a grand court meeting where the emperor and his ministers celebrated together, but he was spoiled by that general Song Lan.

The martial artist was angry, and even a lingering dark cloud appeared over the imperial city.

The black cloud overwhelmed the city, which was very frightening.

"1 years, the artifact that took me 1 years to make, this fellow has denied it with one word!"

"There's no reason for this, there's no reason for this!"

"Song Xuan, you came back just to fight against me?"

There seemed to be an electric arc flickering in Qi's eyes, a cold light suddenly appeared, and a crackling sound resounded in the void.

At this time, a few ministers walked over from the study, among them the elderly civil servant who was in charge of demonstrating the omnidirectional instrument before.

They are all imposing, obviously very high-level, but at this moment, they are like a mouse seeing a cat, with fear in their eyes, and cold sweat dripping from their foreheads.

These few people are the main force responsible for the development of the Omnidirectional Instrument. At the moment when the emperor called them over, they can naturally guess the reason, and they all turned pale with fright.

When he came outside the study, he bowed his head and lowered his hands, standing silently.

There is no need to notify them. With the emperor's cultivation, he already knew they were coming.

These ministers stood outside the door for half an hour before they heard the voice in the study:

"Get out!"

The ministers came to Qi's body tremblingly, and before they had time to salute, they heard the emperor behind the desk say coldly:

"I'm still too generous with you."

Hearing this, the ministers didn't care about the treatment of "the venerable does not kneel", and all knelt down on the ground, kowtowing non-stop.

"Your Majesty, forgive me, Your Majesty, forgive me!"

Qi Leng snorted and said: "You guys have been reincarnated from generation to generation, and have been blessed by the court from generation to generation. How much resources have you occupied? The only requirement I have for you is to make a good omnidirectional instrument, but you can't even do this. What use do you need?"

The ministers didn't dare to talk back, so they could only keep begging for mercy.

"Your Majesty is incompetent, please allow a few more years for your Majesty to improve the Vientiane Instrument."

"Hmph, it has been improved for thousands of years, and it still looks like this."

Qi stared at them fiercely, "I ask you, is it possible to achieve popularization, so that ordinary people without cultivation can operate the Vientiane Device?"

"This—" the ministers showed embarrassment.

They are all ghosts and immortals, and they only have Taoism in their minds, and they develop the omnipotent instrument as a magical instrument.

If ordinary people can use it, is it still a magic weapon?

Seeing their embarrassment, Qi immediately lost his temper.

"Useless things! You have been raised for thousands of years for nothing!"

A group of ministers hurriedly kowtowed again, their foreheads were bruised and bleeding, and the demeanor of the top powerhouses in the past was gone.

Qi took a glance, frowned and said:
"Where's Jiang Xinlian? Where did she go?"

The ministers replied tremblingly: "The collection order has already begun to be shut down a few days ago, and I did not participate in the Great Court Meeting."

Qi's complexion was even worse.

"She will pick her time..."

Suddenly, Qi recalled the previous "Storm in the Collection Pagoda", Song Yun forced his way into the Jiang Mansion, but left in a low-key manner. It is likely that Jiang Xinlian secretly revealed her secret!
Damn!

"Closed to death? Do you really think that no one will care about you when you are about to die?"

Kai gritted his teeth, and repeated what he said at the beginning——

"I'm still too generous with you."

Different from the beginning, the tone no longer seemed angry, but full of cold killing intent...

The ministers trembled suddenly, showing expressions of horror.

Qi coldly ordered:

"I'll give you three months to lower the threshold for using the Omni-Octograph. The Possession Level is still too high. Let's go to the Appearance Level and Object Dispelling Level!"

"After three months, if you can't complete the task, then you can go and accompany Jiang Xinlian..."

The hearts of the ministers were beating wildly, and they kowtowed again despite their fear.

"The minister will definitely live up to the trust!"
