I just helped the empress to conquer the world, but she wants to kill me

As for the dark country, [-]% of the country was captured, and the capital of the country was directly besieged.

Basically, it is the rhythm of subjugation and genocide.

As a result, it was pacified by the reinforcements in half a month.

This is not only against the sky, it is like a fairy tale!

"Who did this dark country invite to be holy?"

Ji Ruxue asked subconsciously.

Cao Ning, who was obviously not interested in this information, and the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs of the aristocratic family also pricked up their ears.

After experiencing Li Huaian's attack on the capital and directly ransacking the house, this group of family ministers finally realized that the logic at the bottom of this world is always that violence trumps everything.

So they are very interested in all kinds of famous players who can play.

Even if you can't recruit, you can make a little favor.

Then use the strength of the opponent to train the generals of your own family.

Isn't it beautiful!

The intelligence officer of Shichen Palace looked at the expressions of Ji Ruxue, Cao Ning and other aristocratic ministers, but there was a tangled look on his face.

But the eyes of Ji Ruxue and a group of civil and military ministers were too eager, so he had no choice but to say tactfully:

"I dare not say this person's name."

When Ji Ruxue heard this, she was immediately dissatisfied.

"What is this called, you are my intelligence officer of Da Zhou!"

"What name, you dare not even say it!"

Cao Ning also agreed with Ji Ruxue rarely, saying:

"Your Majesty is right, the intelligence officer can just say what he wants!"

Hearing this, the intelligence officer gritted his teeth and said the three-character name.

"Li Huaian!"

Li Huaian! ! !

These three words are like a silencer.

As soon as it was said from the mouth of the intelligence officer, the whole hall became completely silent in an instant, and a needle could be heard!

Ji Ruxue's expression was distorted; Cao Ning's mouth twitched; all the ministers of civil and military affairs were full of pain.

They seem to be back in that day.

The day she was humiliated and ransacked her home.

Suck!

Ji Ruxue took a deep breath, tried to calm down the malice of wanting to sew the mouth of the intelligence officer with a needle, tried to pretend to be indifferent, and said:

"Let's skip the matter of Li Huaian for now."

"Tell me about what happened after the rebellion in the dark country was put down."

"A country that has experienced such a serious rebellion should be very chaotic now."

"Do you have a plan in Shichen Palace to take advantage of the chaos in the dark country to seek benefits for my Great Zhou?"

At this moment, Ji Ruxue felt that she had grown up.

Grow into a wise, tolerant, and unswerving Mingjun.

She is proud, proud of her growth.

However, in the next second, she broke the defense again!

The intelligence officer was sweating on his forehead, looked at Ji Ruxue cautiously, and said softly:

"Your Majesty, the dark country has not become chaotic because of the rebellion."

"Not only that, after Li Huaian put down the rebellion, he punished the major forces in the rebellion. Let the Datong Chamber of Commerce contribute money, the Tiangang Army contribute, and wipe out Jiulong Mountain, which endangers the safety of the people in the dark country."

"Afterwards, she was entrusted by the empress of the dark country to reform the state affairs."

"Although it is only a short period of time, the dark country has undergone earth-shaking changes, and its national power is booming."

"It is said that for every three businessmen and scholars who enter the dark country, one is optimistic about the future of the dark country and chooses to settle in the dark country."

"Someone even declared that the Dark Country will take the place of Great Zhou and become a powerful country alongside the Three Great Kingdoms!"

The intelligence officer kept talking more and more quietly.

Because he clearly saw that as he spoke more and more, the anger and anxiety on Ji Ruxue's face became more and more obvious.

His fingers pinched the armrest of the dragon chair, which turned white from excessive force.

The veins in his neck were jumping up, and his face was grim.

She looks like a dominatrix who wants to eat people.

As for Cao Ning and other aristocratic ministers, their performance was even worse.

Everyone was in a trance, startled and surprised.

It seemed as if he was going to be scared to death in the next second.

bump! ! !

Ji Ruxue tried hard to control, but in the end she couldn't control her anger and fear.

She vigorously swung the jade pendant around her waist, slammed it fiercely at her intelligence officer, and roared angrily:

"Get out, get out of here! Get out of here!"

It seems that in this way, the news of Li Huaian can disappear with the intelligence officer.

However, Cao Ning and other civil and military ministers, seeing Ji Ruxue's gaffe, did not have the slightest spirit of ridicule.

Instead, the whole person breathed a sigh of relief.

After the intelligence officer disappeared completely, the hall became deathly silent.

It was as if the man in the dark country looked down on everyone with his calm, mocking, and disdainful eyes.

Suddenly, Ji Ruxue got up and left without saying a word.

Cao Ning and other civil and military ministers disappeared silently after Ji Ruxue left.

In the next few days, the entire Great Zhou Kingdom fell into a deathly silence like an old man who hadn't recovered from his breath.

However, under this silence, an undercurrent that Ji Ruxue could not observe began to come alive.

Mansion.

As the leader of the family, Wen Zaidao is the chief of the secret room.

In front of him are the heads of hundreds of families in Da Zhou.

Wen Zaidao took a deep breath, glanced at everyone, and said in a deep voice:

"Compared to all the sages, you already know about that."

"That man's strength is getting stronger and stronger, and now he has mastered the state affairs of the dark country."

"Although he is an enemy, everyone should know the strength of that man."

"I judge that within three years, the dark country will rise."

"At that time, Li Huai'an will have the world's number one army like the Dragon Cavalry Army on the left; and the support of the rising Dark Kingdom army on the right."

"If there is another battle in the capital, can Da Zhou protect us!"

"Your Majesty, can you protect us!"

"cannot!!!"

"So, we must control our own destiny and power!"

When Wen Zaidao spoke, his tone was very calm, and he didn't mean to encourage others in the slightest.

However, every patriarch who heard his words couldn't help trembling slightly.

Every one of them, every family, has personally experienced the experience of being forced to ransack the house by Li Huaian with a knife and a gun.

That was the humiliation and fear that had never been felt for thousands of years.

That was the closest they were to death by the sword in the millennium.

In any case, they cannot accept such an experience to repeat.

and so--

"Yes, we must control our own destiny! We must control the power of Da Zhou!"

"Only in this way can we protect our wealth and our safety!"

"I agree. Not only will His Majesty not protect us, but he is ready to attack us now!"

"We must strike first!"

"..."

Wen Zaidao silently listened to the speeches of the patriarchs, and after everyone finished speaking with righteous indignation, he smiled lightly.

"In this case, everyone will do as I say."

"All the children of various families who are officials in the local area, stop directly to deliver grain and silver to the capital."

"In addition, the princes from all over the country are now making their own calculations. Let's help them and let all the collateral descendants assist them."

"Finally, and most importantly!"

"From now on, we will have an army loyal to the family!"

"Only such an army can protect our wealth and our safety!"

Following Wen Zaidao's order, the entire Da Zhou family quickly became active.

In the following time, Ji Ruxue received memorials from all over the world like snowflakes every day.

Some are about disaster victims, some about being robbed, and some about former embezzlers who took bribes.

Although the reasons are different, the purpose is surprisingly the same.

That is, the grain and silver sent to the capital are gone!

With no money or food, Ji Ruxue's ambitious plan to rebuild the Forbidden Army and her grand ambition to govern the Great Zhou collapsed in an instant.

But there's more to the bad news than that.

The intelligence officer of Fengchen Palace also told her that recently, the collateral descendants of the aristocratic family have begun to take refuge in their respective princes.

And bring your own dry food.

The combination of these two things has triggered countless chain reactions.

The troops stationed all over the country collapsed one after another because they lacked military rations and salaries.

And the princes from all over the world, who were funded by the family, took the money and food brought by the descendants of the family to directly recruit defeated soldiers.

Under the ebb and flow, Ji Ruxue's order could no longer leave the Great Zhou Capital!

"Bastard! Bastard!"

"These are all my money, my food!"

"How dare you use my money and food to recruit my soldiers!"

"It just doesn't make sense!!!"

In the palace, Ji Ruxue threw down the porcelain one by one in a rage.

After smashing like this for a long time, she said with a gloomy expression:

"You are unkind, I am unjust!"

"You guys are tearing up your face with me, then don't blame me for being rude!"

"Come here, pass my order."
