Saint Ancestor of All Demons

At the entrance of the emperor's palace, Xiang Chen handed over the sword he was wearing and entered the hall.

There were hundreds of civil and military officials in the palace, and countless eyes fell on him after he entered.

Xiang Chen walked into the palace without squinting his eyes, bowed his head slightly, and then bowed ninety degrees to salute: "Your Majesty, Li Wangchen, pays homage to your Majesty. Your Majesty may live as long as the heavens, and may you be as blessed as the heavens!"

The Eternal Lord nodded slightly: "No courtesy!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Xiang Chen stood up straight, but he did not look directly at the other person. He lowered his eyebrows slightly and glanced at Fan Shuyuan, Ouyang Shengwu and others next to him.

"Senior brother, what's going on?"

Xiang Chen asked via voice message.

"It's about your conscription." Fan Shuyuan replied.

Xiang Chen was stunned for a moment, and then he understood.

"Bold Li Wangchen, you wantonly recruited disciples from the Holy Academy, colluded with Fan Shuyuan, and formed a clique for personal gain. What crime should you be guilty of?"

Suddenly, the Minister of the Ministry of Finance took the lead in attacking and put a big hat on Xiang Chen's head.

Xiang Chen frowned slightly and looked at the Minister of the Ministry of Finance who was pointing at him and scolding him: "My lord, what are you talking about? I form a party for personal gain? What party do I form for personal gain?"

The Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue said coldly: "Those Beidou Holy Academy disciples have not graduated yet, and you are recruiting soldiers into your army. Are you not forming a clique for personal gain?"

Xiang Chen pretended to be stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then burst out laughing: "It's ridiculous, it's extremely ridiculous, my lord, I am recruiting soldiers to protect my family and country and guard the Yinghuo border, but my lord, you said that I formed a clique for personal gain?"

"So, aren't the generals and military officers in the world just people who form cliques for personal gain? When the enemy comes, we don't need to resist, so you just use your words to fight with them?"

"Sir, if you can use your bad mouth to conquer the Yinghuo Star Territory, then I, Li Wangchen, will admit that I am a clique for personal gain. How about that?"

After the other party said something, Xiang Chen immediately responded with ten sentences, which made the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue stunned for a moment.

"Haha, you are right. If recruiting soldiers is regarded as forming a clique for personal gain, then the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue will send troops to us in the future?" Ouyang Shengwu immediately replied.

"This is unreasonable!" Shangshu of the Ministry of Finance's face turned red with anger.

Fan Shuyuan said softly: "General Li, that is the Minister of Household Affairs, a second-rank official!"

When Xiang Chen heard this, he immediately realized what he said: "It turns out it's the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. The Minister doesn't understand military matters, so I won't care about anything."

"Li Wangchen, I am Wenren Hanbing, one of the top ten generals in ancient times. I know military skills, right?"

Suddenly, a middle-aged man with a first-class official position said calmly.

Xiang Chen looked at the other party, cupped his fists and saluted: "It turns out he is the commander-in-chief whom I heard and met."

Wenren Hanbing nodded slightly: "You recruit so many disciples of the Holy Academy. This is against the rules. There must be an explanation for this matter."

Xiang Chen's face was full of surprise: "Explanation? What explanation? I recruit soldiers because of the authority given by the Ministry of War. Those disciples of the Holy Academy join the army voluntarily.

They are patriotic and have great righteousness in their hearts, so they join the army. Does this need to be explained? Is it a crime to be patriotic? Is patriotism still in need of explanation? "

Fan Shuyuan sighed: "General Li, it's not because you are patriotic and you need to explain. It's because you can recruit so many disciples from the Holy Academy to join the army voluntarily, which makes people jealous and fearful."

Xiang Chen smiled with a smile on his face: "That makes even less sense!"

"Xu Shuai ordered me to complete the expansion and training within three hundred years. I am the one who is going to fight against the Netherworld on the battlefield of Yinghuo. I will also take them to fight against the Netherworld people. It is the Netherworld that should be feared. Why are we afraid of it? ?”

"Could it be that there are spies from the underworld in our Eternal Heaven?"

Xiang Chen's tone was stern, his expression was a bit cold, and he looked at the Minister of the Ministry of Finance and the Wenren Commander!

"That's nonsense!"

Marshal Wenren scolded him coldly: "On top of this temple are the pillars of the country, how can there be ghost spies."

"Oh, then I am not the pillar of the country above the temple? I am recruiting a group of soldiers just to form a clique for personal gain?"

Xiang Chen immediately asked back, his teeth sharp and sharp, so that Marshal Wenren's face turned gloomy for a moment, and he didn't know how to reply.

Zhang Shoufu has been watching this scene silently. As the leader of a faction, he said nothing and has been observing Xiang Chen.

"This Li Wangchen is a natural-born military commander with a courageous and political heart."

After this short contact, he had such an evaluation of Xiang Chen.

Xiang Chen looked at the Eternal Lord, who was aloft but had not spoken a word, and bowed, "Please give me your Majesty's advice!"

"I, Li Wangchen, only join the army to serve the country and temper myself. It is a helpless move to recruit soldiers in the Holy Academy because there are few soldiers on the front line. In the face of national interests, everyone should protect them, whether they are disciples of the Holy Academy or ordinary people!"

"Furthermore, I am recruiting people in the Holy Court because I want to use the battlefield to train these Holy Court disciples so that they can grow up and serve His Majesty faster.

Unless I have any thoughts of forming a party for personal gain, my army will always be an army that firmly defends the interests of Eternal Heaven and defends His Majesty and is loyal to His Majesty! "

After Xiang Chen said these words, he bowed and did not get up.

Everyone else looked at Xiang Chen in surprise. He could say these words. Is this really his first time coming to the temple?

Obviously more oily than the old fried dough sticks in the temple.

The Eternal Lord could not tell whether he was happy or angry: "General Li, get up. Few people believe in General Li's loyalty. However, apart from the imperial guards, you are indeed the first person to recruit troops in such a large-scale recruitment in the Holy Court. It will inevitably make people suspicious."

"The adults doubt you, but it is for the sake of the country and the country. You don't have to take it to heart. I have heard that you are very capable of training soldiers and educating children.

As for the 200,000 Holy Academy disciples you recruited, you will lead them well. I hope you can train an ace iron army for me to defend my eternal interests! "

As soon as the Eternal Lord said these words, the expressions of many people in Zhang Shoufu's faction changed slightly.

So many Holy Academy disciples were given to Li Wangchen? Doesn't Your Majesty know that Li Wangchen is Fan Shuyuan's man?

Or do you mean you have other plans?

Xiang Chen saluted quickly: "Thank you, Your Majesty. Your Majesty is wise. I will definitely live up to His Majesty's trust and build an ace iron army for Your Majesty. It will be invincible in all attacks. I will defend the territory for Your Majesty and expand the territory!"

"Whatever your Majesty sees is the territory pointed by the swords of the ministers and soldiers. Is it the king's land in the whole world? Is it the king's ministers who are on the shore of the land?"

This set of flattery makes many old officials feel ashamed.

The Eternal Lord smiled slightly: "Go down, I won't delay your army training."

"Yes, I resign!"

Xiang Chen bowed and slowly backed away, exiting the hall before turning around and leaving.

Xiang Chen also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. He was afraid that the Eternal Lord would see any flaws in him and expose his true identity.

When he went back, Xiang Chen also began to review in his mind everything he met when he came to the court today.

The Minister of Hubu and the Marshal Wenren jumped out to bite him because he had recruited too many disciples of the Holy Court.

Why bite yourself? Have you hindered their interests?

Xiang Chen thought about it, and suddenly he had an idea.
