Martial Arts of Longevity: Starting from the prison guards

Chapter 111 Killing skills, chaos in all directions (for subscription)

With the voice of the Empress Fengming, Cao Dachun, Lu Ning and others got up one after another.

The civil and military officials headed by Qin Zhong also got up, and some of them looked at the new empress with a glowing gaze and full of aura.

There are also people whose eyes are gloomy, and they may be thinking in their hearts that if the Empress ascends the throne against the heavens, the world will soon be in chaos.

They are just enduring the pain for a while.

The enthronement ceremony proceeded to the third step.

The empress didn't care what everyone was thinking, she said in a voice like a phoenix: "The sky is rolling around, and the luck of the gods will last forever. The country will last forever."

"From now on, the Great Zhou Dynasty will be changed to the Yuan Dynasty——Yuanwu!"

"Long live Your Majesty!!"

Under the golden stage, Qin Zhong took the lead, and the civil and military officials paid homage again.

"Be flat!"

The empress waved her arm, and everyone stood up.

Under the gesture of the empress' eyes, Cao Dachun stepped forward to read out the letter of reward.

"Your Majesty conferred the imperial edict: Qin Zhong, the chief assistant of the cabinet, was old and frail, fought bloody battles, and made meritorious escorts. He is specially named Zhongyonghou and the first assistant of the cabinet."

"The old minister thanked His Majesty Long En!"

As soon as Cao Dachun's voice fell, Qin Zhongke knelt down to thank him with a 'plop'.

Lu Ning glanced at Qin Zhong slightly, the corner of his mouth slightly raised.

"Uncle Pei Tong, who has made meritorious service in escorting, promoted to the first rank, can enter the cabinet, in addition, he will be rewarded with a thousand taels of gold and a hundred acres of fertile land."

"I would like to thank Your Majesty for your grace!" Uncle Guo Pei Tong knelt down and thanked him.

Pei Tianbei, who was standing on the stage, took a look and smiled innocently.

"Gu Fengtang, the commander of the town magic department, has meritorious escort...!"

……

"Lu Ning, escort the first class meritorious service, promote the town magic division thousand households, and give the golden waist card, so that you can avoid death!"

Hush...!
Can you avoid death?
Qin Zhong and the others were all shocked. Even if they were named Zhongyonghou, it was not as important as this golden waist card!
Kou Shize also looked surprised. He contributed the most to the Battle of Yunlu. Later, he supported Emperor Wu of the Ming Dynasty to ascend the throne, but he did not get the golden waist card, which would save him the glory of death.

Why did this kid get the gold medal for avoiding death after escorting him overnight?
"Pei Tianbei, the first-class meritorious service in escorting, promoted to the Thousand Households of the Town Demon Division, and given a golden waist card, can save you from death!"

Hearing this, Qin Zhong and the others made a commotion again, looking at Lu Ning and Pei Tianbei with envy.

"The rest will be rewarded one by one for meritorious deeds, I respect this!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty Ron!"

"All the Qing families are flat!"

Then the rites and music sounded, and the singer and dancer of the Jiaofang Division began to play.

The empress looked at it for a while, then walked slowly towards the golden platform.

Lu Ning and others followed.

The enthronement ceremony is not completely over.

Everyone followed the empress and moved to the Taiji Hall, which is the place where civil and military officials go to court.

Daming Palace is the imperial palace.

But the Empress did not intend to live in Daming Palace.

She plans to still go to court in the Taiji Hall, review memorials in the Imperial Study Room, and live in Yongle Palace.

In the Taiji Hall, all the guards, maids, and eunuchs knelt down and kowtowed.

The empress walked slowly past the golden-red stall, turned around and sat on the emperor's seat.

Lu Ning and Pei Tianbei stood on both sides of the throne, one on each side.

Cao Dachun glanced coldly, and could only stand back a little.

Regardless of the fact that the two are just fifth-rank military officers, no one dares to be tough with Lu Ning just because of that golden belt.

As soon as you die, you die!

There is no way, who will let the two of them escort the first-class merit, the emperor's grace is mighty!
After Qin Zhong and other civil and military officials bowed and bowed, they began to enter the banquet, and the ceremony and music began. Everyone respected the empress first, and then they toasted and staggered.

According to the laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty, when the new emperor ascends the throne, all civil and military officials must kneel and worship.

In fact, you don’t need to kneel down when you go to court or see something on weekdays.

Except for civil and military officials big and small, anyone who knows the situation must kneel and worship no matter when and where.

Those who do not know are not guilty.

The wine is half drunk.

A civil servant Han Shiling, who was dissatisfied with the empress's ascension to the throne, suddenly jumped out, pointing at the empress' nose and yelling.

It means that the female emperor tampered with the edict, which violated the will of Emperor Wu of the Ming Dynasty, and even violated the historical monarchy.

Criticize the empress as the eldest princess, and if she is a princess, she cannot be called emperor, wrapping the harem and continuing issues.

The throne should be handed over to King Yongsan or King Ansan...

The empress looked at the civil servant calmly.

Qin Zhong, Cao Dachun and others were not allowed to do anything, and she waved her hand after listening to it.

"If you say something you don't like to hear, you will kill me, Han Shiling, hahaha... Can you kill all the commentators in the world?... Rebel, you are the rebel...!"

"what!"

There was a scream outside the Tai Chi Hall, and then there was no sound.

In the main hall, all civil and military officials fell silent.

The empress sat on the dragon chair, looked at the civil and military officials calmly and said: "Who else thinks that I am not worthy of this position? It's okay, just say it, and speak freely."

Qin Zhong and the others looked at the empress with strange expressions, is it serious to speak freely?
"Your Majesty, this Han Shiling reads dead books, and is pedantic and incompetent. If it was not for the recommendation of King Yongshan, the old majesty would not be able to refuse, so he was allowed to be an official in the court. Don't you know that he is a white-eyed wolf, hateful, and can be killed!"

"But we are loyal ministers, loyal to Da Zhou, and loyal to His Majesty."

Qin Zhong was the first to speak, he demoted Han Shiling first, then showed his loyalty, and brought everyone along with him.

What can everyone say? Those who are dissatisfied also sit silently.

Lu Ning glanced at Qin Zhong, this old bastard who is loyal and treacherous, if people don't know him, they will be moved by his words.

Seeing that everyone listened to Qin Zhong's words, they nodded frequently.

The empress didn't say anything else and continued with the banquet.

Lu Ning stood aside, looking at the Heaven's Punishment Catalogue.

[Congratulations to the penalty master for killing the six-star sinner Pang Jian and gaining 920 million experience points at one time! 】

Total experience value: 2246 million!
Seeing the total experience value, Lu Ning was very excited.

Originally, it would take more than 40 days to be promoted to the third rank.

Now it only takes more than 20 days.

I really can't figure out why it's wrong to be a third-rank strongman, but to be a killer.

[Sinner Pang Jian, die!Congratulations to the penalty host for getting three chances to draw a lottery. Do you want to draw a lottery? 】

"smoke!"

Lu Ning responded consciously.

[Congratulations to the penalty master for obtaining the first-class special skill "Heavenly Jueshu", beginner (70/1600 million)! 】

"A unique skill, a heavenly technique?"

A flash of surprise flashed in Lu Ning's heart, who is that third-rank killer Pang Jian?Has a killer skill on her body?

It is even more surprising that with the strength of the third grade, he has only practiced to the beginner level.

It can be seen that this unique skill is very difficult to cultivate, otherwise, the empress will definitely have trouble at the enthronement ceremony today.

[Congratulations to the penalty master for obtaining the second-grade light-weight exercise "Ten Thousand Miles in a Flicker", beginner (23/300 million)]

"In a blink of an eye?"

Lu Ning's eyes were slightly fixed, and he obviously felt some changes in his body.

Immediately check the catalog, the fifth-grade lightness exercise "A Thousand Miles in a Flicker" disappeared.

Hehe, this is so fleeting, so good!

[Congratulations to the penalty master for obtaining three fourth-grade healing pills, Blood Bone Pills, do you want to use them? 】

"Being not!"

Lu Ning echoed in his heart, he really didn't expect to get such a rich harvest from killing Pang Jian, it seems that this person's background is not simple!

The first-grade Tianjue technique is a kind of assassination technique, I don't know what sect it is from?

But to be able to reach the first rank, the strength of the sect must be very strong.

It's almost noon.

The empress said that she was tired and wanted to go to Yongle Palace to rest, so she took Lu Ning and others out of Taiji Palace.

Qin Zhong chased out of the main hall and respectfully said to the Empress, "Your Majesty, you will go to court at Maoshi tomorrow, so don't be late!"

"In the future, the court will be changed to the second quarter of Mao in the winter. Elder Qin Ge will let everyone know."

The female emperor's phoenix eyes sank and said.

Mao is a little early, and the sky is not bright.

"It's Your Majesty!"

Qin Zhong nodded, and happily ran into the hall.

……

Yongle Palace.

In the main hall, the Empress asked Bai Wei to prepare wine and meat dishes. Lu Ning and Pei Tianbei, who were already hungry, started eating when they saw the wine and meat.

In the Taiji Hall just now, the two of them just watched greedily, and now they don't care about their appearance.

Not long after, Gu Wushuang arrived.

"Wu Shuang, it's just the right time to come, sit down!" the empress said with a smile.

Gu Wushuang was speechless, she didn't expect the empress, Lu Ning and others to run back and have a small banquet.

After sitting down, he said, "Your Majesty...!"

"Let's not talk about state affairs today."

"Your Majesty, it's not a state matter, it's a family matter. When do you plan to send Noble Concubine Qi back to Qiushan?"

"I sent her back to Akiyama just after I ascended the throne, making it seem like I was in a hurry."

"There is a date, and my subordinates are ready."

The empress pondered and said: "Then the sixth day of the twelfth lunar month."

Gu Wushuang listened to it for half a month, nodded and said: "Okay, my subordinates will go back and prepare."

Saying that, he glanced at Lu Ning.

Lu Ning, who was eating, felt Gu Wushuang's eyes, couldn't help raising his eyebrows, and looked at the latter.

After a while, he looked at the empress and said, "Your Majesty, escort Qi Guifei back to Qiushan, and my subordinates are willing to go."

The empress glanced at Lu Ning with her phoenix eyes: "You don't need to go."

Gu Wushuang hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, Lu Qianhu has just become famous and not many people know him. It is indeed a good candidate to act as a groom and escort Qi Guifei."

The empress pondered for a moment and said: "Forget it, just look at the arrangement."

Gu Wushuang nodded.

When the wine was half full, Lu Ning still expressed his thoughts: "Your Majesty, now that you have ascended the throne as the emperor, your subordinates have fulfilled their mission. Before that, you have been asking me what rewards I want. Your subordinates have already decided!"

Hearing this, the empress was quite happy: "Say it, as long as I can do it, I will do it."

Lu Ning smiled and said: "It's very simple. After sending off the noble concubine, I plan to return to the prison to take up my post. I hope your majesty will approve."

The moment his voice fell, the atmosphere in Yongle Hall became strange and dignified.

Bai Wei, Bai Xue, Pei Tianbei, Gu Wushuang and the maids were all stunned.

You are now a celebrity by His Majesty's side. If you are so favored by His Majesty, why don't you take good care of him and go back to work in the prison?
Are you out of your mind?
The empress's face was slightly condensed, and her phoenix eyes said with anger: "Are you serious!?"

"Return to Your Majesty, this subordinate is serious!"

"Scrap!"

The empress suddenly got up angrily, smashed the jade cup on the ground, and stared at Lu Ning fiercely with her phoenix eyes: "Waste, waste...!"

The voice fell, and he turned angrily and walked towards the inner hall.

Bai Wei and Bai Xue were extremely depressed, and stared at Lu Ning speechlessly.

"I'm not useless!"

Lu Ning looked at Pei Tianbei and then at Gu Wushuang.

"Scrap!"

Gu Wushuang glanced at Lu Ning, then got up and left.

Let you go to Akiyama to see someone off, but didn't let you leave the empress?

"Brother Lu, you really are a bit useless!"

Pei Tianbei didn't stand by Lu Ning's side this time either, and shook his head and said, "Isn't it nice to serve my empress sister? Why do you want to go back to the prison?"

Lu Ning sighed in his heart, I thought about it too, but how do you understand my fun!
He had to go back to the sky prison and stay in the sky prison for a while.

Turn the third and fourth floors.

Only by gaining more experience can he quickly reach the second and first ranks, becoming a rare powerhouse in the world.

At that time, it would not be too late to stay with the Empress!

The next day.

Winter month twenty.

Emperor Yuan Wu got up early, washed up and went to court.

Bai Xue and Bai Wei followed, as did Lu Ning and Pei Tiantong, and Fang Xuewu accompanied his guards.

Along the way, the empress sat in the dragon's chair and didn't speak to anyone.

When they arrived at the Tai Chi Hall, all civil and military officials were already waiting.

"Go up!"

Eunuch Liu, in his 40s, from Chengxuan Division, shouted at the top of his voice.

Only then did Qin Zhong and the others file into the Tai Chi Hall.

"Long live Your Majesty!"

"Be flat!"

The empress is wearing a black dragon robe, with black gauze wings and a crown, and a string of cherry red jade beads hanging on her chest, which is quite majestic and imposing.

Lu Ning took a closer look and was very satisfied.

Next, it was Qin Zhong and others who came together in various ways.

Qin Zhong impeached King Yongshan without His Majesty's permission, recruiting troops privately, with the intention of rebellion.

The king of Beimang, who had not yet returned to Beimang, reported to the northern barbarians and learned that Emperor Wu of the Ming Dynasty had passed away. Recently, there were signs of imminent movement. The phenomenon of robbery in the frontier was not very serious.

Guo uncle Pei Tongshang played the riots in Xiliang and Sangzhou, which became more and more violent, and troops had to be sent to suppress them.

The Marquis of Zhennan reported to the Demon Territory of the Southern Border that the demon clan has recently appeared on a pilgrimage, and it seems that there is a big move.

The Marquis of Zhenxi reported to the kings of the Western Regions that he heard that Emperor Wu had passed away, and they wanted to send people to express their condolences.

Lu Ning stood aside and listened, the memorial was overwhelming.

There is everything, bandits in Gyeongju, famine in Qingzhou...

It can be seen that during the period when Emperor Wu of the Ming Dynasty was in bed, how many things were backlogged were basically not dealt with, and they were all waiting for the new emperor to ascend the throne to deal with them.

Lu Ning looked at the empress, and saw that the empress was sitting on the dragon chair, a little confused.

She really didn't expect that there would be so many things.

Sitting on the dragon chair, he rubbed his temples involuntarily.

After a while, her phoenix eyes turned to look at Lu Ning.

Seeing that Lu Ning was staring at her, her phoenix eyes flashed a touch of tenderness, and while Qin Zhong and the others were arguing, she hooked her fingers at Lu Ning.

Lu Ning's eyes flickered slightly, he trotted up the Golden Dragon Terrace and walked to the dragon chair, and said in a low voice, "Why is Your Majesty summoning your subordinates?"

"There are so many things, which one do you think I will deal with first?" the Empress asked in a low voice.

Lu Ning glanced down, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, you have to be clear, you are the empress, you don't have to do everything yourself, and you can't finish it if you are exhausted."

"It's a matter for the Ministry of Punishment, let the Ministry of Punishment handle it, it's a matter for the Ministry of War, let the Ministry of War handle it. Your Majesty, you only need a result of the processing."

"I know this!"

"Then what's your problem?"

"The King of Yongshan, the barbarians in the north, the kingdoms of the Western Regions, the monster race in the south...!"

"Your Majesty, deal with the countries of the Western Regions first."

"why?"

"Think about it, people are here to express condolences to Emperor Wu of the Ming Dynasty. No matter if they are sincere or not, we can't refuse it. We have to look like a kingdom."

As he said that, Lu Ning glanced down and said, "As for the King of Yongshan, the northern barbarians, and the southern border demons, we will analyze them in detail with His Majesty later."

The empress nodded secretly, and probably guessed what Lu Ning was thinking.

She was also surprised, she hadn't figured it out yet, but Lu Ning had already figured it out.

The more she looked at Lu Ning, the happier she was.

[Congratulations to the punisher for gaining the favorability of the Great Zhou Empress to 93%, rewarding him with 5 prestige points! 】

Prestige: 48 points!
Lu Ning: "???"
