C276

In the nine days of the Phoenix Soaring Sky, under the personal rule of the Son of Heaven, the Southern Champion had stabilized, and the situation of the four kingdoms had also stabilized. In the troubled times, there was a rare moment of peace. All countries were committed to stabilizing their territories, exterminating the bandits and the dukes at their borders, and strengthening their nation's recovery.

After more than a year of war, every country was weak and it was difficult for them to start a large-scale war again. Those with knowledge had already seen that there would be a peaceful day in the future.

Currently, the Four Great Empires of Nanke, Yunmeng, Northern Yi, and Jinghai were strong. There were still six self-proclaimed hegemons, and the original Five Great Empires had now become ten.

However, the other six kingdoms' strengths were far from being on par with the four kingdoms. They were in the middle of a series of trials and tribulations.

In this chaotic world, no one would care about all this. It might even be a good idea to be the emperor for a day.

The armistice between the four countries continued, and the original Fengyuan gradually settled down. Yun Meng denounced the six self-proclaimed emperors and called on the four countries to join forces against them.

Even without Yun Meng's words, the four empires would not allow the other six empires to grow up. They had reached an agreement to suppress the other six empires and expand their territory.

The reverse fire scale sat on the dragon throne, his fingers brushing the cold arms of the dragon throne. This was the feeling he wanted. Making all the officials kneel down and look down on the fates of others, he was willing to spend the rest of his life in exchange for a short period of time.

Staring at the white figure standing in front of the western officials, he still could not see through Master Fengyuan. He had personally taken care of the imperial government for three days, but he was still indifferent, respectful and unchanging.

However, in the current Nanke and the other countries, who would dare to not to sneer at this Master Fengyuan?

The imperial court was exempt from paying respects to the Emperor and allowed to carry weapons. This kind of honor was something that only the Emperor Palace of the past would receive.

Even after the Fire Lin had ascended to the throne, he had still given Shang Qiuyuan this honor. However, as always, Shang Qiuyuan did not act arrogantly because of this, and instead respected his duty as an official.

Three days later, an imperial court official had secretly made a report, saying that Shang Qiuyuan was a man of his own right and held power in his hands, allowing others to take advantage of him. I implore you to take the military power of Shang Qiuyuan and to dispense with all honors. There were even people who demanded that Shang Qiuyuan be held aloft and that the military power wield by Shang Qiuyuan be taken back.

The current Shang Qiuyuan, it was already very difficult for him to control. Even if Shang Qiuyuan was willing to hand over the military power, those soldiers were all from the old division of the past nine days of the palace. Many people harbored hatred in their hearts towards him, and it was not something he could control.

If they washed up again, not only would the situation of the Southern Champion, which they had finally stabilized with great difficulty, be thrown into chaos, it would also cause the other countries to send out their troops.

Initially, they had wanted to take advantage of the nine days' worth of events in the palace to send troops to the Southern Champion Palace to seek some benefits, but because the chaos had yet to spread, it was suppressed. Later on, when Shang Qiuyuan brought back heavy troops, the other countries had been waiting and watching.

Only after the miracle of the Phoenix Soaring Through the Nine Heavens occurred did the Southern Champion finally stabilize, and he regained control of the imperial court. After dealing with the imperial government, the various parties stopped some military actions.

The people from the other nations who had originally been redeployed to the borders of the Southern Champion Kingdom in various names also gradually dispersed.

If he were to make a move on the former and sweep his eyes across the officials, he really wouldn't be able to find someone who could replace the latter.

Moreover, Shang Qiuyuan's actions were completely correct, and he had no reason to easily strip Shang Qiuyuan of his military authority and discredit his official position. After all, the border was still unstable, so he needed this famous general to help him. As a result, those memorials were all suppressed by the reverse scale of fire.

"Empress, the Emperor has instructed that no one is allowed to enter this place."

The imperial study of the Fiery Inverted Scales was heavily guarded, preventing Ji Tian Ning from entering.

Ji Tian Ning did not say anything. His eyes were fixed on the guards as he slowly swept his gaze across their faces. In her eyes, there was a vague flash of rainbow light, causing the guards to darken their eyes.

"Open the door."

The two guards turned around and opened the door to the imperial study. Ji Tian Ning walked in and quickly flipped through the imperial edicts on the table.

Taking advantage of the time while the reverse scale was in the imperial court, she used her hypnosis technique to hypnotize the guards of the reverse scale and then entered the imperial study to peek at the imperial report in order to grasp what the reverse scale was about to do.

A moment later, Ji Tian Ning walked out of the imperial study. She ordered the guards to close the door and said, "You are not allowed to tell anyone about my visit, including the Emperor. Do you understand?"

The guards kneeled on the ground. "We shall follow the Empress's orders and swear our loyalty and devotion to the Empress."

A foxy smile appeared on her face as a charming curve appeared on her lips. A true god was not that stingy, he had still given her some benefits. For example, using hypnosis to control others at this moment was incredibly easy. There was no mistake at all.

"Emperor Baima, let's play a game. No matter what, I will not be harmed by you again, nor will I let my child and him be hurt by you."

He sat in the royal study room, fiercely tapping his temples with his fingers. Although the secret medicine could stimulate his life potential, his physical strength and spirit were no longer as strong as they were in the past.

If you think too much, you will still have a headache, or even a splitting headache. He could only continue to endure, hoping that the heavens or the true gods would give him more time.

"I don't know how long I can last. Even the imperial physician's orders aren't clear. How long can Zhen last after taking this secret medicine?" How should I deal with it? "

Unreconciled, extremely unreconciled, there were too many things that had yet to be done, and Nanke was still not very stable. He could not fall down right now, or everything would be for naught.

"Reporting to the emperor, the empress has arrived."

"Please."

Instead, he found a chair near the window and lazily sat down. "Your Majesty has worked hard and has been very energetic recently. Your face is also red, and your eyes have also lit up. You can only walk like a dragon or tiger."

"Ning'er, did you come to ridicule me?"

This little kitten was as agile as ever. It reminded him of her appearance when she first entered the palace, and his gaze couldn't help but become gentle. After recuperating for too long, he had also calmed down, and he was no longer as ruthless and explosive as he was in the past.

"I'm telling the truth."

His heart ached. Why did his heart still ache for him when there was no love and hate?

"Why haven't you come to court with me in the past few days?"

"With the Emperor here, there's no need for me to trouble myself."

The Fiery-Scaled Beast stared at Ji Tian Ning. Was this little kitten really willing to surrender all of its rights, or was it plotting something else?

He couldn't believe that after experiencing so many things and turning the empress dowager into a cripple, Ji Tian Ning was still willing to give up everything she had gained and return to her original position, willing to stay in the harem and be a virtuous queen.

"Kindness, this word doesn't seem to have anything to do with kittens."

Some time ago, the empress dowager had been sent to the Hongmeng Palace by Ji Tian Ning. She had stayed in front of the true gods for years to fast, praying for the blessings of the Southern Champion.

He understood that Ji Tian Ning was using her identity as a goddess to imprison the empress dowager into the Hongmeng Palace. However, because Ji Tian Ning had allowed the empress dowager to regain her original state of mind, she had no intention of bringing the empress dowager back from the Hongmeng Palace.

After all, Ji Tian Ning was the empress now, and he didn't want to see the battle between the empress dowager and Ji Tian Ning ever again.

"In this case, you can rest in peace and rest in peace. Don't trouble me, I will take care of everything and hand over to our son, the stable and powerful Southern Champion."

"Oh, the Emperor seems very confident, but do you know how long you have?"

Ji Tian Ning's casual words caused the Fire Lin's heart to beat faster. What he wanted to know the most was how much time he had before he could make a series of plans based on time.

"Ning'er, tell me, how much time do I have left?"

"But after His Majesty found out, what was His Majesty's intention? Are they preparing to take over the military power, to clean up the imperial court, or just make some people disappear and take control of everything? "

Huo Ni Lin was silent for a moment, his thin lips revealed a cold smile, "What do you want to ask? Is it because I want to ask how we are going to deal with Shang Qiuyuan? "

"There's no need to ask. I know what you're thinking?"

Ji Tian Ning lightly nodded her head. "Don't forget what kind of person I am. Would Witch not know what you are thinking? "

His eyes suddenly turned cold as he stared at Ji Tian Ning. His eyes that were suffused with the cold aura of the cold Southern Champion Kingdom's Cold Blood Sovereign King from the past was now filled with the coldness and majesty of his eyes.

"You should know that everything I'm about to do is for our child."

"Is that true? You're just too paranoid to trust anyone, including your mother and wife. Have you ever trusted anyone in your life? If you want to strip Shang Qiuyuan of his power and take over his military power, you have to be afraid that he will become the second King shoulder by shoulder. "

"Empress, you want to plead on behalf of Shang Qiuyuan?"

"No, no need to plead. You should understand that if you touch him. This is also the reason why you have yet to make a decision after the group of officials performed their secret music. "

"How did you know?"

"If I want to know, then I know. Before me, you have no secrets. The current me is no longer the me of the past. The title of the Goddess is no longer nothingness. "

The corners of Huo Ni Lin's eyes twitched, his eyes suddenly became sharp, "So what if I know? The Southern Champion is our world, and it can only be ours. In the future, it will also be the world of our two sons. "Could it be that you really are a monk from the original relationship, and you need to know that the daughter of god, Feng Xiang, and the others cannot change my decision?"

Ji Tian Ning looked at the reverse scale with a pitying gaze, "Unfortunately, you won't have the chance and time left. If you had ten more years, you could do what you want."

"How much time does This Emperor have? "Tell me!"

The reverse fire scale grabbed Ji Tian Ning's wrist and violently undulated up and down. In its eyes, there was a faint trace of nervousness and expectation. It would not take ten years, even if it was only five years, or even three years of time.

At this moment, for the reverse fire scale, time was very precious, but he didn't know how much time he had left.

What he did not expect was that Shang Qiuyuan had smoothly taken over the military power of Gong Jiu, and it would be very difficult for him to take back this military power. Now, he'd used a secret medicine to take advantage of the unstable situation. Shang Qiuyuan had yet to reach the level of being able to stand shoulder to shoulder with the palace for nine days, and he wanted to seize control of the situation.

However, he did not act rashly. The present Southern Champion, especially the matter of it being included in the Southern Champion Domain, was inseparable from Shang Qiuyuan.
