Empress: Your Majesty, please respect yourself, I don't want to be promoted

The moment the Jidao sword came out of the body, an incomparably overbearing emperor's air suddenly poured out, enveloping everyone present in it in an instant.

"Hmm."

A few of the guards suddenly let out a muffled snort, with painful expressions on their faces, and even Qianhu, the two guards who were quite skilled, frowned suddenly.

Both Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping felt as if something indescribable was pressing over them, their bodies sank suddenly, and the air around them became much heavier, causing their breathing to stagnate suddenly, and they subconsciously gasped for a few times.

Then the expressions of the two of them changed at the same time, and they stared at the extreme sword in Lu Chen's hand with rather ugly expressions. They swallowed back the words they wanted to argue with Lu Chen again.

The sword is as great as the king,

A face sword is like a face king.

Whatever Lu Chen said at this time represented not only the authority as the governor, but also the supreme majesty of the emperor!

Disobeying his orders is tantamount to disobeying the emperor's orders.

This is the crime of beheading!

After only struggling for a moment, they completely gave up the idea of ​​continuing to argue.

"The last general..."

Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping stretched out their hands struggling, and arched towards the sword of Jidao, then clenched their teeth and squeezed out a few words:

"Follow the Governor's order!"

No matter how upset they are now, they can only hold it in their hearts. Otherwise, if something is wrong and Lu Chen catches it and makes use of it, then it will not be as easy to deal with it as before.

The sword of the ultimate way can kill criminals and rebels.

Cut first and play later, the imperial power franchise.

Even the members of the royal family were killed as soon as they said they wanted to, and they were just commanders of the guards. Unless they were forced to rebel with determination, they would not dare to act presumptuously in front of the sword of the extreme way.

"snort!"

Seeing the compromise between the two, Lu Chen still snorted coldly with dissatisfaction on his face, even more disdainful in his heart.

Although he had expected it, he didn't expect these two guys to be so straightforward, and he immediately gave up when he saw the sword of the extreme way.

But it doesn't matter, as long as you use legitimate reasons that can circumvent the restrictions of the system, you can rationally offend those in power to death, and make them hate him to the point where he can't exist.

Even if one or two enemies can't make waves and shake his current position, but as the saying goes, "you can't go a thousand miles without taking a few steps", as long as you spare no effort to accumulate enemies, you will be able to achieve the goal of "look around, you will be enemies with every eye". Forge ahead, one day, there will be no place for him to stand in the huge court.

At that time, no matter how much the Empress trusts him, she can only follow the general trend of people's hearts for the stability of Daxia and the country.

Just think about the end of the "Big Brother".

In the officialdom, as long as enough people are offended, even the Heavenly King Lao Tzu will not be able to save him.

At that point, no matter whether he was dismissed or killed, his ascension to the fairy world is a certainty, and no one can stop him.

And there are not too many ways to make enemies, especially those rentier classes who have grown by eating away at the country and squeezing the people, and have now become unimaginable behemoths.

The easiest way is to move their cakes.

For those Pixiu old monsters who can only get in and out, letting them spit out the benefits they ate into their stomachs and share it with the people is more uncomfortable than killing them. As long as Lu Chen dares to touch their cakes, they will definitely spare no effort. The price is to completely eliminate him as a huge threat.

To Lu Chen, Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang, the two powerful military generals who were obviously playing both sides, were just appetizers, small characters who could be used to practice at will.

As long as they have the guts and dare to trade with him directly, or murder him secretly, he will look at them a little higher.

Seeing that they didn't make any moves after taking the order, Lu Chen withdrew the sword of the extreme way expressionlessly.

In an instant, everyone felt their bodies relax, and they gasped greedily.

At this time, Xiao Yun slowly rode forward.

"It's getting late."

Her voice was inexplicably less soft and more rigid.

"Two generals, please tell all the soldiers to rest well tonight and recharge their batteries for tomorrow."

"promise!"

The two clasped their fists in response.

They wanted to leave a long time ago, and they felt annoyed when they saw Lu Chen's cold face. For this yellow-mouthed child who is obviously only as old as his own son, but will become the favorite of the empress by fate, since he can't do anything now, then the last The best way to deal with it is naturally to stay away from it.

Su Shuang ordered a few soldiers to take Lu Chen and his party to rest, and then turned to leave.

However, just as the two were about to turn around, Lu Chen spoke again:

"At Yinshi tonight, the first batch of water control materials will be delivered to the pass, so I will set off immediately at 15:00. Except for the necessary guards at Tianmen Pass, everyone must make all preparations in advance and stand by in the school grounds. There must be no mistakes!"

Hearing this, the two of them stopped immediately.

Zhang Shiping turned around, and a haze flashed in Lu Chen's eyes.

"My lord governor, is it too early?"

Lu Chen put his hand on the hilt of the sword at his waist.

"What? Commander Zhang wants to wait for the flood to come before dispatching troops?"

Su Shuang hurriedly responded: "Your Excellency, you misunderstood, Commander Zhang didn't mean that."

After speaking, he gestured to Zhang Shiping with his eyes.

However, Zhang Shiping shook his head, hesitated for a moment, and asked Lu Chen in a deep voice: "My lord, there is something unclear about the general, can you explain it to the general?"

Lu Chen said lightly: "Say."

Seeing Lu Chen's response, Zhang Shiping first took a deep breath, and then said with a heavy expression:

"May I ask you, the governor, I am waiting for the soldiers of the Qingning Army to have no grievances against you. Why do you insist on waiting with me and let me wait to do the work at the head of Guizhou? Although the Yuzhou Guard under your command dare not say great achievements Yu Chao is famous, but they are all loyal and brave men who have contributed to the dynasty, you treat me and other soldiers like this, Governor, don't you worry about us being chilled?"

"And you, Governor, are in the heart of the emperor, and you are deeply trusted by His Majesty. If there is no accident, you will surely rise to the top in the future, and you will even be appointed as the prime minister, and become the leader of the three pavilions."

"But Mr. Governor, you don't know why you humiliated us so much now, aren't you afraid that the news will spread, and then all the military officials will be alienated from you, delaying your infinite future?"

"Even if someone in the Qingning Army offends you, a big man like you shouldn't humiliate me like this, sir?"

Lu Chen just listened to him quietly, with no sadness or joy on his face.

It was as if he was listening to something that had nothing to do with him.

After Zhang Shiping finished speaking, he opened his mouth slowly.

"Are you finished?"

"At the end of the day, I hope the governor will clear up the confusion."

Xiao Yun glanced at Lu Chen with some concern, but the female general who had been following Lu Chen quietly tensed up, and was ready to fight violently in an instant.

A gust of cold wind blew by, swinging the hem of her clothes around her waist, revealing a waist card engraved with a powerful and steady picture of Xuanwu gods and beasts.

If you look closely, you can see that there are a few inconspicuous small characters engraved on the waist card——

Commander of Xuanwuwei, Fu Yu, Ling.

That's right, she was the one who defeated the 200,000 forbidden troops stationed in Luojing with only 30,000 troops, and then followed the Holy King Cangming among the hundreds of thousands of forbidden troops led by the demon queen and the former general Shenwu. The strongest guard of the Cangming Army, the commander of the Xuanwu Guard - Fu Hua.

Only she, the strongest member of the Cangming Army who is second only to the Holy King Cangming, the commander of Xuanjiwei who replaced Xiuyiwei, and the accompanying protection of a group of Xuanwuwei masters who also serve as Xuanjiwei, can the Empress really feel at ease. Leave Beijing in the morning.

This alone is enough to see how difficult Lu Chen's road to immortality is.
