Chapter 449: The Storm in the Court, Emperor Yang Jiong

Yujing City, as the capital of the Daji Dynasty and the source and center of the world, controls the fate of more than 10 billion people.

In the court meeting hall at this moment.

All the officials and eunuchs in the six ministries, nine ministers and twelve abbreviations in the imperial palace were already arguing with each other.

"How do officials in the Northeast do their work? How many times has the land in the world been measured? Since Emperor Taizu, it has been required that all localities must have a grasp of the intelligence on possible martial arts caves, spiritual blessed lands, and secret treasures in their localities, and keep them in their hands."

"As a result, after more than 150 years of establishing the country, they didn't even know that there was a Holy Dragon Treasury in Changbai Mountain?"

"If this matter had been reported earlier, would we be in such a passive position now? The spiritual vein under that place is something that makes the Yuan Dynasty jealous, and the Holy Dragon Treasury is likely to attract the attention of the Yun Dynasty as well."

"By then, will our Great Ji possibly face the siege of the two great dynasties? The country will be in imminent danger!"

"This is not the time to talk about this. When the Northeast was recovered from Emperor Taizu, there were many local problems. Even the local belief in demons and immortals was forced to be allowed to remain. Over the years, the court's control over the Northeast was actually not enough, let alone knowing the truth in the Changbai Mountains."

"Treasures of this magnitude as the Holy Dragon Treasury cannot be easily discovered through a thorough investigation. They must be kept very secret by those demon fairies."

"We've been arguing here for so long, and I wonder if the elders have come to a conclusion after their discussion?"

Deeper in the meeting hall, in the inner courtyard of the imperial palace,
This is the cabinet that truly controls the country. There are three cabinet ministers and six ministers, a total of nine core members.

"Although Li Shentong has barely resisted the Yuan coalition forces in the southwest, if the Yuan army expands the front line to the northeast, we must withdraw troops from the rear as soon as possible to support the northeast as soon as possible, otherwise gaps will be opened in the northeast and southwest, and the Central Plains will be in danger." A red-robed official with a chest-length beard said in a deep voice.

"What about Huang Xianke from the two lakes?" asked another Shangshu who was also wearing a red robe.

"The Minister of War said what Chiguo said. Since urgent news has come from the Northeast, we must station troops there. We cannot be slow. If we are slow, the Yuan Kingdom will be fast." An old man with a white beard sitting on the central chair said in a deep voice: "I suggest that we draw 100,000 troops from each of the four provinces in the Central Plains and the two lakes. 500,000 troops will be sent to the Northeast to guard the border, and another 100,000 troops will be sent to reinforce Li Shentong."

"Are five hundred thousand troops heading to the Northeast? Who should lead the army? Could it be Cao Yangu from the Northeast? Although this man is also the commander-in-chief of the Changbai Province's land division and his personal cultivation is at the thirteenth level, he has never commanded a major war..." asked the Minister of Rites.

In an instant, the nine people began to discuss again and recommended different people.

at this time.

"The Holy Spirit orally."

A loud voice came from the side hall. In an instant, the nine most powerful people in the Daji Dynasty stood up at the same time, lifted the hem of their official uniforms, and knelt in the same place:
"Long live our emperor."

Since the death of Emperor Taizu, the current emperor is Emperor Taizu's younger brother. Emperor Taizu had no children in his life, so the throne was left to his younger brother Yang Jiong.

After Emperor Ji Yang Jiong ascended the throne, he established a cabinet and handed over all government affairs to them. He himself devoted himself to martial arts training in the Martial Temple, but when there were some major national events, he would issue oral orders and order everyone to follow them.

The eunuch coughed softly and said:
"Your Majesty has ordered that at this time when the country is in danger, I intend to appoint Prince Yong as the Governor-General of Changbai, to go north to garrison Changbai and take charge of the war throughout the country."

After hearing the imperial edict, the three cabinet ministers and the six ministers all looked up in a daze.

Very shocked.

Because Prince Yong is none other than the current emperor, the former emperor's brother from the same mother, who possesses extraordinary martial arts skills and is named Yang Han.

However, after the death of the late Emperor Taizu, the current Emperor succeeded to the throne, and there are too many unspeakable secrets in the process.

In short, Prince Yong has been confined in the capital by the current emperor ever since he went to the capital to attend the funeral that year, and has never been allowed to leave Yujing City.

For more than a hundred years, everyone has been speculating that the current emperor was afraid of his brother, whose martial arts talent was not much inferior to that of the late emperor, and therefore did not dare to send him back to his fiefdom.

But I didn't expect...

Today, because of the events in the Northeast, the Emperor was actually willing to release Prince Yong Yang Han, who had been under house arrest for more than a hundred years, and let him lead an army of 500,000 north to garrison the Northeast.

This……

In the end, although the nine people present were all elderly, each of them was about a hundred years old. But they still didn't know much about the early days of the founding of the Daji Dynasty, including the process of the death of Emperor Taizu Yang Yin.

At this moment, only the Prime Minister Zhang Yiting knelt on the ground and spoke in a deep voice:
"I will obey your order and immediately order the cabinet to draft an edict and send it to the seven provinces."

After the Prime Minister spoke, the other eight people also received the order at the same time.

Even though the current emperor has not been in charge of government affairs for more than a hundred years, due to the blessing of the martial arts fortune of the Martial Temple, it is said that he has already reached the martial arts level of the late Emperor Taizu and has truly reached the fifteenth realm.

That is why he was able to control the whole world and all the thoughts in the court.

And when the nine people were preparing to get up.

The eunuch cleared his throat:

"Your Majesty has a second order."

The nine people moved their bodies, then stopped again and knelt on the ground.

The eunuch said loudly:

"Your Majesty has issued an order that the war ahead is urgent, and that the cultivation results of the students of Shenwu Mountain must be accelerated as soon as possible. In addition, he also said that since the world belongs to our Yang family, it is unreasonable to let the common people fight for the country alone. From now on, all members of the royal family will send one person from each lineage to enter Yujing to receive the assessment of the late emperor's seal. Those who pass will lead the army of Prince Yong!"

This second decree shocked the nine ministers even more. Urging the students of Shenwu Mountain to complete their studies was not a big deal. The key point was, did the emperor actually want all members of the royal family to go to the front line to fight?

Also, being tested by the previous emperor’s imprint?

This move is so weird.

If there really is someone who has been recognized by the late emperor, then what does the current crown prince matter?
They didn't dare to think about it.

This is because over the past hundred years, the pressure from the current emperor has been growing stronger day by day.

The existence of the fifteen realms, if nothing unexpected happens, can almost save a country for thousands of years.

but……

In history, only the ancient emperors have achieved this.

Even the late Emperor Taizu, who unified the world and founded the Fifteenth Realm, died mysteriously after only forty years on the throne.

But as long as one is in the fifteenth realm, it represents the supreme power that can reverse everything.

"The ministers obey the order."

When the imperial decree from the palace was passed on to the various royal clan palaces, it caused a shock to half of the clan members. Half of the clan members expressed despair and did not want to join the army at all.

There were also some members of the royal family who seemed to have some kind of wildfire ignited in their hearts.

At Prince Yu’s Mansion.

As Chen Ku's clone, Yang Xi came to the capital city for more than half a year. During this period, he has been searching for the whereabouts of the "Sheyue Order" in the treasure of the King of Heroes for his original body.

But there is still not much progress.

However, he did not expect that he would have the opportunity to go to Yujing Heaven and Earth, the core of the Martial Temple, to undergo the test of the late Emperor Taizu Yang Yin.

"I don't know whether this matter is good or bad for me. I need to report it back..."
