The system came a hundred years earlier, I kicked Beihai Kindergarten

Shen Lang looked a little confused, as if he wanted to raise his hand to scratch his head, but he put it down halfway.

"How dare you, Shen Lang, not even bow when you see His Majesty!"

A civil servant stepped out and shouted.

"Oh oh..." Shen Lang seemed to be called back to his senses.

pat!

Shen Lang gave a military salute, the military salute of the Zhenbei Palace.

"I have met His Majesty!"

"Puchi..." A senior official standing in front couldn't help but laughed out loud.

"Shen Lang, you!"

The civil servant's blood pressure went up, but the emperor smiled...

Chapter 243: Can’t even win over the military generals?

"It's okay. This person has never been to the Ministry of Rites to perform etiquette, so it's normal that he doesn't know etiquette." The emperor spoke.

Although all those present were cultivators, and most of them were busy practicing, they were governing the world after all. Unlike the martial arts sects, Confucian etiquette was still very important here.

Only then did Shen Lang see the emperor's appearance clearly.

He is 70% similar to Ji Wendi, with a slightly longer beard, and looks more like a middle-aged version of Ji Wendi, with a hint of elegance.

As for how old he was, Shen Lang had no idea.

He was wearing a dragon robe which was mainly red, and he looked quite handsome.

At least, in Shen Lang's eyes, this looks much better than the yellow dragon robe.

"Your Majesty is magnanimous and generous, which is a blessing to the country." The Minister of Rites said.

Shen Lang calmed himself down.

For the people present, it can really be said that there are gods wandering everywhere and there are as many gods as dogs.

All those above the rank of Marquis are divine.

Officials of the second rank and above, such as the six ministers, are mysterious.

Although not all the sixteen generals of the guards were present, and their rank was third grade, not second grade, they were all divine.

Today, even King Yizibingxiang attended the court. This is the heavenly realm that sits in Chang'an.

Shen Lang had reason to suspect that with the current strength of the Great Zhou, it could use drugs to give birth to two people in the Heavenly Man Realm at any time.

After all, if the Zhenbei Palace can do it, there is no reason why the imperial court with a stronger foundation cannot do it.

Shen Lang really didn’t know where the people of the grassland got the courage to attack the Great Zhou at this time.

How did they succeed back then? Didn’t they have any idea?

"Shen Lang, do you know why I summoned you to the palace?"

The emperor's eyes were on Shen Lang.

"I don't know, but I have something to present to Your Majesty." Shen Lang said in a deep voice.

"Oh?" The emperor raised his eyebrows: "What is it?"

Shen Lang took out the Red Flame Dragon Rider training method from his storage bag and was about to move forward.

However, a eunuch came down quickly, stopped Shen Lang, and said to him, "Just give it to me."

Shen Lang handed the paper to the eunuch.

After checking it, the eunuch returned to his previous position and handed the item to the emperor.

"Is this... the Red Flame Dragon Cavalry Battle Formation?" The emperor looked at the paper in front of him with surprise.

brush brush...

Countless generals turned around and looked at Shen Lang.

"Red Flame Dragon Riders? The North's trump card?"

"This...isn't this Zhao Qingyang's?"

“It’s not lost?”

"According to the battle report, it seems that only a few of the Scarlet Flame Dragon Riders survived, and none of the survivors knew how to train..."

"This is a battle formation comparable to that of the Shenwu Army."

"If Zhao Qingyang had another state of territory, he might be able to build a Red Flame Dragon Riders formation of 10,000 people."

"It is said that all the Scarlet Flame Dragon Riders combined together can challenge the Heavenly Man Realm."

"Why do you have this?" The emperor was not too moved and put it beside him.

"I was originally a former servant of the Zhenbei Palace..." Shen Lang burst into tears when he said this: "I was previously a guard under the command of Zhao Huaibei, the second son of the Zhenbei Palace."

"When the grassland people attacked Muyun City, the second young master fought a bloody battle in Muyun City. He would rather blow up Muyun City than let the supplies of Muyun City fall into the hands of the enemy."

"That night, I wanted to die with the Second Young Master, but he gave me a task that was more difficult than death."

"The Second Young Master knew that Muyun City could not be defended, so he entrusted this item to me and asked me to deliver it to Chang'an and hand it over to Your Majesty no matter what."

"Alas..." The emperor sighed: "This Zhao Huaibei is truly loyal and brave."

"For the sake of the country and people of the Great Zhou, the Zhenbei Palace has also devoted itself to the cause."

Having said that, many people present were confused.

Work your butt off?

How many years has it been since the Zhenbei Palace paid taxes?

It can be said that since two generations ago, the Zhenbei Palace has been the place where the northern border eats and takes money from the court without paying a single cent of tax. Those who don’t know would think they are supporting a big boss.

The Zhenbei Kings of these generations were actually no different from the warlords of later generations. They had already established their own armies.

Under such circumstances, the imperial court did not send troops to attack, but instead cooperated with the Zhenbei Palace, which was really for the sake of the overall situation.

Otherwise, any normal monarch in ancient times would not tolerate a subject acting like this.

In his later years, Li Longji trusted An Lushan, but what was the result?

The reason why the imperial court did not send troops to drive out the grassland people immediately and eliminate the influence of the Zhenbei Palace on the northern border was precisely because of face issues.

Of course, the imperial court also wanted to take back the northern border.

The King of Zhenbei does not respect the imperial court. Previously, the imperial court asked the King of Zhenbei to block the grassland people, which was considered useful.

But the King of Zhenbei is gone, and it was not the court’s fault, so let it be.

It would be just right to wait until the people of the grassland have almost eliminated the influence of King Zhenbei and then take back the northern border.

Someone mentioned before, how can Zhao Qingyang, a fake Heavenly Realm cultivator, have such a great influence in the Northern Territory?

What can I say about this? The people in the northern border recognize the title of King Zhenbei for thousands of years, not Zhao Qingyang.

Moreover, Zhao Qingyang is really good to the people in the northern border.

The common people don’t have much culture, so of course they support whoever treats them well, and they don’t know who is strong or not…

"I cannot disappoint the loyal ministers, so I posthumously confer the title of Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery on Zhao Huaibei."

The title of nobility is linked to one's cultivation level, and generally one must at least reach the Divine Profound Realm to be granted the title of nobility.

Although the marquis corresponds to the third rank, he is a military officer, different from a civil official.

However, there is an exception for posthumous titles for the dead. The dead cannot receive spirit stones anyway, so it is just an honor.

"On behalf of the Second Young Master, I would like to thank Your Majesty for his grace!" Shen Lang bowed and saluted, and his whole body seemed to relax.

"Mr. Shen is truly loyal and commendable." The emperor couldn't help but sigh.

A gentleman's promise is worth a thousand gold. Shen Lang sent this to Chang'an City to fulfill his promise to Zhao Huaibei. It is really rare and precious.

"Your Majesty, there is something wrong with this Lord Shen."

Just at this moment, an official stood up.

"Oh?" The emperor raised his eyebrows.

Bai Zizai looked back silently.

Seeing this, the censor hurriedly said, "Senior Bai, this is a matter of officialdom. Lord Shen is not only your friend, but also an official of the court. You..."

"It has nothing to do with me. I was just moving my neck." Bai Zizai turned his head back silently.

A senior official standing in front frowned slightly, then relaxed.

This censor is quite interesting.

Attacking Shen Lang under Bai Zizai's pressure would probably make him stand out in front of the Fourth Prince.

Bai Zizai is a cultivator after all. No matter how big the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance is, can it be bigger than the imperial court? No matter how good your relationship is with the person you brought, he is also an official and is under the jurisdiction of the imperial court.

Generally, when someone breaks through to the Heavenly Man Realm, the imperial court will give him some warning and then give him some other benefits.

If they just keep licking their boots, the royal family will lose face.

Saying this not only enhances the dignity of the court, but also leaves a good impression on the Fourth Prince.

but……

He was afraid that he would be blacklisted by Wanhua Valley, and he didn't know whether it was worth it.

After all, Bai Zizai is not an ordinary person in the heavenly realm, he is also a doctor.

"Sir Shen, it has been a long time since Muyun City was captured. I wonder why the training method of the Red Flame Dragon Riders was only sent to Chang'an today?" The censor's eyes were on Shen Lang.

Shen Lang glanced at the censor.

Buddy, did I offend you?

Is this the kind of Su Duidui type of censor who has to criticize everything he sees, or what?

By the way, in the eyes of others, I am not only Zhao Huaibei’s man, but also Ji Wendi’s man. I’m afraid these are officials who support other princes.

There's no way to talk about politics.

Shen Lang doesn't want to cause trouble, but as long as he sets foot in this world of fame and fortune, people will come to him.

"Your Majesty, I am guilty..." Shen Lang sighed.

"Oh, you admit that you have selfish motives? In my opinion, you already have these, but you just want to find a suitable opportunity to exchange them for wealth and honor." The censor sneered.

"Oh? Is that what he said?" The emperor narrowed his eyes.

"Your Majesty, I have three crimes."

"First, I am guilty of betraying the Second Young Master's trust and the imperial court." Shen Lang stood up and said loudly, "The Second Young Master said that the training method of the Red Flame Dragon Riders must be delivered to Chang'an. During this period, they must not experience any danger to prevent the Red Flame Dragon Riders from being damaged."

"At that time, ordinary people were not allowed to enter or exit Xuanmo Pass. I had no choice but to join the army and try to use the official channel to come to Chang'an."

"I never thought that man's plans are not as good as God's plans. The northern border was full of wind and sand. I encountered the enemy while performing an ordinary reconnaissance mission."

"I thought to myself, I am not only the Second Young Master's bodyguard, but also the captain of the imperial court! I failed to control myself at the time, and I led my subordinates to capture the enemy general from the Free and Easy Realm alive."

"Well... Shen Qing's matter was recorded in the battle report sent back by Wen Ding. He is truly brave and resourceful." The emperor looked approving.

Although the battle report showed that there was an expert in Xiaoyao Realm in Shen Lang's team, he captured an enemy general alive without any casualties and even persuaded him to defect. This is not something that everyone can do.

Many cultivators only know how to practice and know nothing about other things.

And this Shen Lang is obviously a man of both courage and strategy.

"My second crime is that after I captured the enemy general alive, I learned of the crisis in Cannes and once again ignored the importance of the Red Flame Dragon Cavalry formation and went to Cannes to lift the siege of Cannes." Shen Lang sighed, "Although I saved the people of the city and repelled the enemy, I still didn't take into account the mission I was supposed to complete."

"Are you confessing your guilt?" The censor was a little confused.

"A soldier's duty is to obey orders. I was disobeying orders twice. How can I be innocent?" Shen Lang looked at the censor.

"When a general is away from home, he may not obey the orders of the emperor. You care about the people and Kangcheng, so although you disobeyed the military order, it is understandable." The emperor said, "Besides, you disobeyed the military order of the Zhenbei Palace. You will receive the punishment in the Zhenbei Palace when you return to the northern border in the future."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
