The first dragon of all time

The next day.

Long Qingchen, the Black Eagle Cult Master and others all changed into brand new clothes and rode in a luxurious caravan pulled by a snow-white unicorn, heading towards the palace.

As the victors, the next period of time will be their "harvest" time.

As for Taoist Qi Ling, he plunged into the alchemy room and never came out. He seemed not interested in other things.

After arriving at the palace, under the guidance of the guards, we went straight to the Daqian Hall, which was the place where the Daqian Empire had its early dynasties.

The dignitaries had already arrived. When they saw Long Qingchen and others arriving, they stepped aside one after another and stood respectfully. Their eyes were complicated, showing envy and annoyance. They envied the "good harvest" of Long Qingchen and others. Regretful that they did not support the Ninth Prince earlier...

An old eunuch held the imperial edict in his hands, walked slowly to the steps below the throne, and announced loudly with a high-pitched voice, "By the fate of heaven, the emperor has issued an edict: The ninth prince is diligent in cultivation and takes the revitalization of the empire as his own responsibility. As expected by everyone, With a legacy that can be passed down to eternity, he will immediately ascend to the throne and take charge of the empire!"

Ninth Prince Yang Gu walked up the steps calmly, raising his hands above his head and holding the imperial edict. From his slightly trembling hands, it could be seen that he was not at peace in his heart.

He continued to walk up, ascending the throne one step at a time, which meant that from this moment on, he became the current emperor of the Daqian Empire and the apparent supreme ruler of the Daqian Empire!

"A few days ago, the eldest prince, the third princess, the fourth prince, and the eleventh prince planned to rebel. Fortunately, many noble men came to help, and the empire was saved from danger. I am very pleased."

He spoke slowly and made a summary of the battle for the throne.

Of course, if the eldest prince, third princess and others win, they will definitely say the same thing...

"Long Qingchen, for his great contribution, is crowned as the King of One Side by Side!"

Yang Gu first looked at Long Qingchen.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Long Qingchen stood up with a slight smile and gave a slight salute. In a place like this, he gave Yang Gu enough face.

The benefits that should be taken have been taken. As for these false names, he does not care.

However, there was one thing he didn't quite understand, so he asked Nangong Wan'er in a low voice, "What does the word 'king side by side' mean?"

Nangong Wan'er rolled her eyes, "It means that a one-word king with a status comparable to the emperor can be disrespected, can enter the palace at any time to discuss state affairs, can remove any official, can mobilize all the armies of the empire, and many other privileges. Except for the different title, he is almost the same as the emperor in other places."

Long Qingchen nodded slightly, "It sounds good..."

"Taoist Qi Ling, he was named a national master."

"The Black Eagle Cult Master, is named Grand Master."

"The Purple Lin Eagle King and the Golden Scale Eagle King are named Nine-Star War Generals."

"A Lizhiyi, be named a Seven-Star War General."

"A-Zi Er, A-Zi San...A-Zi Ba, they were named six-star generals."

"A'Ziu Jiu and A'ZiXi are designated as five-star generals."

"Nangong Wan'er and Zhou Zhiruo are named first-class female officers."

"Zhao Xiaolu, named a second-grade female officer."

"Hou Liu, Minister of Household Affairs."......

Yang Gu announced the rewards one after another, and almost everyone who supported his ascension to the throne received rewards, including the shopkeepers of Long Qingchen's seven branches.

A Lizhi shouted excitedly, "I'm an official, a five-star general!"

Long Qingchen reached out and slapped her on the back of the head, and said angrily, "How many times have I told you, be reserved!"

A Lizhi said aggrievedly, "I'm so happy..."

Zhao Xiaolu's face was flushed, and she was obviously very happy.

Hou Liuhe, the shopkeeper of the seven branches, was even more rosy-faced and in a daze. It seemed that he had never thought about becoming an official. Moreover, he was still a big official, and he could be regarded as a distinguished ancestor.

As for the Black Eagle Cult Leader, the Purple Lin Eagle King and the Golden Scale Eagle King, they are much calmer and don't care at all about these false names.

Also, A Lizi Yi, A Lizi Er, etc. are also very calm. No matter what their official position is, nothing is as good as a word of approval from the supreme master.

"The interrogation and handling of the eldest prince, the third princess, the fourth prince, the eleventh prince, and others will be left to King Yi Zi Bian Jian to be fully responsible."

Yang Gu looked at Long Qingchen again.

Long Qingchen nodded slightly. This was exactly what he needed. Only if he was personally responsible could he use Devouring Martial Vein to plunder, and he could do it without anyone noticing.

"If there is something going on, go ahead and leave if there is nothing going on!"

Seeing Yang Gu stand up, the old eunuch announced loudly.

Many eunuchs and maids gathered around Yang Gu and left.

"Where is he going?"

A Lizhi was so happy that he left after seeing Yang Gu, feeling a little unfinished.

Ah Yijiu thought for a while, "Emperor, after the morning court is over, we can go back to the harem to play."

The dignitaries were all dumbfounded and looked at him strangely.

Long Qingchen's face darkened, feeling embarrassed. He also slapped A Yijiu on the back of the head and scolded, "My mind is full of thoughts. The emperor also has a lot of things to do, such as approving memorials, handling state affairs, etc., only At night, I would play in the harem..."

After hearing the first words, Nangong Wan'er thought he had changed. But after hearing the next words, she realized that he hadn't changed at all, and she rolled her eyes at him: He's the same guy!

"The King of Side by Side, the Supreme Elder and the Supreme Emperor have invited me."

As soon as Long Qingchen walked out of the Daqian Hall, a young eunuch came in a hurry.

Long Qingchen followed the young eunuch to the deepest part of the palace, the same place as last time, under the ancient tree, but this time there were five people, the Supreme Elder Lu Lixian, the Supreme Emperor Lu Qianming and three Sanxian elders.

"I won't beat around the bush anymore. I'm here to come to you. The main thing I want to ask is, what do you plan to do with those prisoners?"

Lu Li smiled lightly, got straight to the point, and asked directly.

Lu Qianming said quickly, "Although those people are losers, they have not made any big mistakes. I hope King Bingjian can be lenient and deal with them leniently."

"Many of those prisoners are outstanding geniuses of the younger generation, and they will definitely become the mainstay of the empire in the future. It would be a pity to kill them."

"If King Bingjian lets them live, in the future, they will definitely be grateful to King Bingjian for not killing them."...

The three elders also tried their best to persuade me.

Long Qingchen spoke slowly.

"The Duanmu family members must not be let go. After all, they have become mortal enemies."

"The third princess and the fourth prince cannot be let off easily. They ignored the rules of the battle for the throne and killed tens of millions of civilians in the imperial capital."

"The eldest prince and the eleventh prince have no grudges against me. They can be punished lightly."

"Those supporters of the First Prince and the Eleventh Prince can also be given a lighter sentence."

In fact, he had already thought about how to deal with those people.

Hearing what he said, the three Sanxian elders breathed a sigh of relief and looked at him gratefully.

The Supreme Emperor Lu Qianming argued, "The person who killed tens of millions of civilians was the elder of the Duanmu family, not the third princess and the fourth prince. They were just puppets who had no control over their actions."

Long Qingchen sneered, "I don't believe that the third princess and the fourth prince were not involved."

Seeing what Lu Qianming wanted to say, Lu Li waved his hand slightly to stop him and sighed softly, "That's it."

Lu Qianming looked gloomy and could not say anything more.

Although Long Qingchen had different opinions from him, he could understand his feelings. As a father, no one wanted his son or daughter to die.

"The crime of death can be circumvented, but the crime of living is unavoidable. Let the two of them live in pain and atone for the sins of the civilians who died."

Long Qingchen said lightly at the end, turned around, and strode away.

"Thanks!"

Lu Qianming's eyes were red, filled with ecstasy, and he bowed deeply in the direction he left.

Come out of the palace and return to the compound.

Long Qingchen immediately ordered Hou Liu, "The elixir shop can be reopened and opened in every city in the entire Daqian Empire. In addition, we now have a spirit stone mine, and the elixirs in the misty swamp also belong to us. Our manpower, It’s far from enough. We need to expand our manpower and recruit at least 50,000 absentees and 50,000 herb collectors. As for the salaries of these people, it’s up to you.”

"Understood. Find Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan.com "

Hou Liu took out a small account book and wrote down his words one by one.

Long Qingchen thought for a moment, "Also, recruit some accountants and send them to various cities to learn about taxes. Don't be fooled without knowing."

"yes."

Hou Liu nodded repeatedly and asked, "The absentee, the herb collector, and the accountant are all ordinary people who have no ability to protect themselves. Do you want to recruit some guards?"

"Let's recruit 10,000 first. If it's not enough, we'll talk about it later."

Long Qingchen made an estimate and came up with a number.

The guards must be composed of cultivators. The salary requirements of cultivators are relatively high and the expenses must be high, so they cannot recruit too many.

Hou Liu smiled confidently, "Now, the Young Master's name is very popular in the Daqian Empire. There must be many people who want to join the Young Master. It will be very easy to recruit them."

"Go ahead."

Long Qingchen waved his hands slightly. He didn't want to waste too much time on these trivial matters, so he could just let Hou Liu handle them.

What he has to do now is to plunder the martial arts and improve his cultivation!

"The Duanmu clan leader, the great elder and the two elders are all powerful loose immortals. After plundering them all, what level will my cultivation reach?"

The more Long Qingchen thought about it, the more excited he became, and he walked directly to the prison.
