After Xuanyuan Jin heard Imperial Concubine Yun's words, he waved his hand disapprovingly, gesturing for Imperial Concubine Yun to retreat, but his hand still remained in mid air, stiff like a statue.
"What did you say?" Who wants to go to the Upper Forest Garden? " Xuanyuan Jin glared at him.
Imperial Concubine Yun was actually a little disappointed. She thought that her little scheme had failed, but when she heard that her majesty was angry, she immediately kneeled down and said: "Reporting to Your Majesty, just now, big sister Imperial Concubine Li and little sister Imperial Concubine Mei were sitting together in my concubine's Jadeite Jadeite Jadeite Temple. It was said."
Xuanyuan Jin breathed rapidly, and after a long while, he finally said: "You may leave."
Imperial Concubine Yun heaved a sigh of relief, her eyes revealing a look of complacency.
"Go, bring the icicles to the palace." Xuanyuan Jin stared at the imperial report in front of him and the guards and eunuchs in the distance.
He really did not like this feeling, he did not like that feeling that everything was planned out by someone. Before, it did not matter, because he did not obtain the true power of the empire, but now, he finally managed to take control of the highest authority of the empire, one step at a time. How could he let it go so easily?
Concerned about his gains and losses, Xuanyuan Jin had almost gone crazy.
After receiving the news that Bing Lanyue had entered the palace, she curled her lips and decided to go in the end.
However, she didn't expect that the moment she stepped into the Audience Hall, she would be immediately hugged by Xuanyuan Jin. Shame and anger mixed together, she wanted to steal a peach for Xuanyuan Jin, and with the addition of Black Tiger's heart, Xuanyuan Jin urgently whispered into her ear: "We have a lot of spies by our side, what should we do?"
Bing Lanyue smelt a trace of the Mandala Flower's smell. She had once smelled this kind of flower's fragrance in the laboratory, and not only that, she was also very familiar with the medicinal properties of this flower. At the same time, Bing Lanyue also smelt something else … For example, the Intestine Breaking Grass!
However, the medicinal properties were not that great. They were only a tiny bit.
Bing Lanyue was stunned for a moment. She had smelled something strange and also danger.
"Let go of me first!" Bing Lanyue struggled a little, and then broke free from Xuanyuan Jin's bear hug.
Xuanyuan Jin coughed, then said: "Lan Yue, what should I do?"
Bing Lanyue bit her lips as she said, "Please indicate your withdrawal, Your Majesty."
Xuanyuan Jin immediately gave his subordinates a meaningful look, and waited until there was no one else in the Audience Hall, then Bing Lanyue said: "Your Majesty, this is easy to handle, isn't it just capturing spies, there's no need to announce me to the palace right?"
Xuanyuan Jin nodded, looking ashamed, he said: "Lan Yue, I found out that I can't leave you, if you were a man, I would definitely let you enter the imperial court to be an official, but you are a woman, so I thought of a way to keep you by my side."
"Are you bored? I don't want to stay in the palace. Besides, I already have someone I like." Bing Lanyue frowned.
Xuanyuan Jin took half a step back and said: "Lan Yue, you might have misunderstood, I do not really want to marry you, but want you to stay by my side and advise me, it is just a title, when I build the strongest empire in the world, when there is no other threat to the world, you will receive the biggest reward ever."
Xuanyuan Jin had actually seen everything that Bing Lanyue had done. Whether it was the loss of the Jun residence's subordinates, the Dark Guard with General's Estate, or even recruiting experts in the martial arts world, everything that Bing Lanyue had done made Xuanyuan Jin think that she was a person that did not want to be left alone.
If beauty could not tempt Bing Lanyue, then, what about power?
"Stop." Bing Lanyue said: "You want to unify the world, your thoughts are beautiful, but the reality is cruel, did you drink the medicine just now?"
Xuanyuan Jin nodded his head strangely: "That's right, I have to drink medicine every day at this time."
Bing Lanyue did not know who had concocted the medicine for Xuanyuan Jin, nor did she know who the real mastermind was. Or was it a concubine? Or maybe someone in the royal family, and then … Monarch Moli!
That was why Bing Lanyue did not point it out loud. Instead, she sized up Xuanyuan Jin and said: "Your Majesty, your body, haha, if you say anything unpleasant, with your body being so weak, you should be properly nurtured. Pastering horses to the northern border, are you prepared to ride your horse, or be carried away by someone?"
Xuanyuan Jin's face became ugly, there were very few people in the imperial court who could speak to him in such a tone, but humans have such despicable genes inside their bones, and the higher the person, the more despicable they were deep within their hearts.
"Fine, even if you're right, now that there are spies from other powers around me, what should I do?" Xuanyuan Jin shifted the topic to the beginning.
Bing Lanyue pondered for a moment, then said: "To show that you're weak, there are good and bad aspects to everything. Since those spies exist, we should just let them be, and treat it as if we don't know, and at a crucial moment, use these spies to give you a heavy blow.
If it was anyone else, Bing Lanyue would definitely suggest to kill those spies one on one, but the situation was different now. She was someone who had to leave, so before she left, she would arrange a secret chess for the emperor.
"Show weakness and eradicate him entirely." "Showing off your strength to intimidate others." Xuanyuan Jin smiled and said, "Fortunately you are not our enemy, otherwise, we would definitely give up our position."
Bing Lanyue's heart tightened, she raised her head and stared straight at Xuanyuan Jin, and discovered that Xuanyuan Jin's words didn't have any other difference, she was only smiling.
As such, her heart was slightly at ease.
The theory of killing the heart! This was definitely the theory of killing the heart!
"Your Majesty, if there is nothing else, I shall take my leave first. I wish Your Majesty Wu Yuncheng." Bing Lanyue cupped her hands and prepared to leave.
"Wait." Xuanyuan Jin stopped him and said, "What's the rush? After all, we had originally planned to go to Upper Forest Garden with Ma Shan, and we can't let those spies down. Let's go, accompany us to see the New Army."
Bing Lanyue went over the pros and cons a little bit, but in the end, she still followed along.
She knew that Monarch Moli was currently in the Upper Forest Garden, if he were to be seen by Xuanyuan Jin … He would at least be able to take care of things for a while if he followed his. Also, he would have to instruct the New Army that Ye Lang and Huo Feng are both good fighters, and if she was going to leave, Broken Stream would have to go with his.
He had to leave a path of retreat for everything. If he used all of his trump cards, then he wouldn't be too far off from death.
The intelligence team led by Broken Stream continued to place people in between the capital and the feudal fiefdom. This way, if they were in the feudal fiefdom, she would be able to get wind of the news and make the decision to deal with them.
The Imperial Family Courtyard had long since been filled with people. Usually, Bing Lanyue only knew that if these people stayed in the Red Dust Inn, they would fill up the left, right, left, and right places with people. The moment they were pulled out, they would put on standard armor and line up neatly within the Upper Forest Garden.
"So their auras can also kill. So these people are like wild horses with their reins removed. Now that they are wearing uniform armor, the feeling is really different." Bing Lanyue sighed.
Ye Lang, Huo Feng and Cheng Maohua lined up properly, and then the three of them ran over together.
"Your subordinate pays his respects to Your Majesty!" The three of them got off their horses at the same time and half-knelt down.
Xuanyuan Jin said: "Get up, your three beloved officials have suffered, how many people are there in New Army?"
Just as Ye Lang stood up and heard the king's question, he immediately cupped his hands and said: "Three thousand one hundred and fifty people."
Over three thousand? Bing Lanyue looked at Ye Lang strangely, she knew how many people she had in her hands, how could she suddenly have so many people?
Xuanyuan Jin himself was shocked, although he had planned this out for New Army, according to his spy report, Bing Lanyue only had around a thousand odd subordinates in his possession. When did all of these people appear?
"Good, very good." Xuanyuan Jin looked at the black mass of people and asked: "How are New Army's equipment?"
"Reporting to Your Majesty, the main equipment we have are serial crossbow s and Sky Tremor Bomb s, at the same time, we use a long-hilted saber and a short dagger as support." Ye Lang lowered his head slightly, and said with a sonorous and powerful voice.
The serial crossbow and the Sky Tremor Bomb were both invented by Bing Lanyue, so they were suitable for close combat. Xuanyuan Jin thought that if he were to lead the three thousand imperial guards to fight the three thousand people in front of him, then the three thousand Sky Tremor Bomb would explode at the same time. Thinking about it, Xuanyuan Jin trembled in fear.
He turned to look at Bing Lanyue and secretly made his decision.
"Instruction: The New Army will be expanded to a total of thirty thousand people. Nine thousand elite troops will be mobilized from within the imperial guards and the left and right martial guards. Ye Lang will be the general, Huo Feng will be the general and Cheng Maohua will be the deputy general. The other two generals will be the deputy generals and the five vice generals will be chosen from the Ministry Of War s side."
After Xuanyuan Jin finished, he turned and asked: "Lan Yue, what do you think?"
Bing Lanyue cursed loudly in her heart. Red Fruit's power seizing! In other words, Ye Lang was a general, but the only people she could command were the old tribes. With two generals and five deputy generals, even if Ye Lang was a general, he wouldn't be able to suppress the imperial guards and the soldiers in the left and right.
But with things having progressed to this point, what could Bing Lanyue say?
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid you have miscalculated something. The cost of the Sky Tremor Bomb, as well as the cost of the serial crossbow." Bing Lanyue suppressed the anger in her heart and said: "Let's not talk about anything else, just Sky Tremor Bomb! You probably know how many subordinates I have, in order to raise these brothers, I didn't even have enough money to spend on Sky Tremor Bomb s, serial crossbow s, Red Dust Inn s, and the other shops.
Xuanyuan Jin laughed out loud: "We have now established the New Army, so of course our private army would give us some silver from the internal department. Lan Yue, don't worry, we will definitely not treat the New Army unfairly."
Bing Lanyue rolled her eyes at the emperor. When can she respect the copyright?
grinned and laughed. He thought: Without the Jun residence's weapons factory, no matter how much money you spend, it would be impossible to create it.
"Your majesty is enlightened." Bing Lanyue indicated towards Cheng Maohua and said, "Your Majesty, she and Zhang Xu is good friends, Sir Cheng Maohua Cheng, he is now the deputy general."
Xuanyuan Jin nodded, and then said: "We know, there are many soldiers among them that he recruited for us, and they can be considered loyal subjects.
Cheng Maohua said excitedly: "For your majesty, this subject is willing to do anything!"
Only now did Bing Lanyue understand how the other two thousand people came here, and couldn't help but give him another glance.
