Obviously, Jiang Ziya had not experienced the secular world. He was still relatively innocent because he felt that Shen Gongpao was his junior brother. Why did his master hide it from him?
Honored Lord of the Origin sighed. He could see that Jiang Ziya was kind-hearted, and Shen Gongbao was cunning. He would suffer a lot on the road to Godhood. However, these were also Jiang Ziya's tribulations. He could avoid them!
However, Jiang Ziya was his favorite disciple. Honored Lord of the Origin could not help but remind him," Ziya, Shen Gongpao will be your life and death tribulation in the future. You have to be careful!"”
Jiang Ziya obviously knew what the life and death tribulation meant. This was a tribulation that everyone had to go through when they became immortals. However, why was his life and death tribulation his junior brother? That was impossible, right?
Although Jiang Ziya didn't believe it, he knew that Honored Lord of the Origin never lied. He couldn't help but remember Honored Lord of the Origin's words and be on guard. He said to Honored Lord of the Origin," I'll remember it. If there's nothing else, I'll go and prepare. I'll go down the mountain now!"”
The Origin nodded and waved at Jiang Ziya. Jiang Ziya bowed and left the Jade Palace!
On the golden throne, Heavenly Lord Yuanshi's eyes suddenly turned into a nebula vortex. The stars inside flickered as if they were about to be sucked into the primeval universe. He formed hand seals and calculated something...
Ling Fan and Shang Qing Jun fought for half a month to subdue the Eastern Wasteland. In her anger, Shang Qing Jun made a bet with Tian Zi. Ling Fan decided to show Shang Qing Jun what he was doing!
Shang Rong suddenly heard that the emperor was leaving. He didn't know about the bet between the emperor and Shang Qingjun, but when he thought about how his daughter had escaped a calamity, Shang Rong felt relieved!
Fei Zhong had a miserable night. He stood guard outside for the entire night, not daring to leave his feet. Finally, he saw Ling Fan walk out of the Shang Residence's main gate!
Fei Zhong was overjoyed and quickly went up to him. Ling Fan only said the two words," Return to the palace ", then laughed loudly and left!
Fei Zhong stood on the spot with a blank expression. He didn't know what had happened to the Emperor that night. Fei Zhong seemed to have thought of something. He smiled cheekily at Shang Rong, who had come out to see him off." Congratulations, Elder Shang. You will be His Majesty's father-in-law in the future. Please send my regards to Lady Green. I hope you can forgive me for offending you in the past!"”
Shang Rong looked at Fei Zhong coldly. This bootlicker really couldn't spit out any ivory from his mouth. Originally, the emperor had forced his wife and robbed her, making his family feel sad every day. Now, the emperor was finally relieved and treated his daughter with courtesy. Shang Rong's heart was also at ease.
When he thought about the emperor's decree to marry his daughter, Monarch Green, it was probably this bootlicker Fei Zhong who had slandered him. He couldn't help but burn with anger. He scolded," Fei Zhong, you bootlicker. I'm telling you, as long as I'm still in court, I'll be irreconcilable with you. The Shang Mansion doesn't welcome you. Don't let me see you again!"”
As he spoke, Shang Rong slammed the door and entered. Fei Zhong asked for a snub and was insulted by Shang Rong again. He couldn't help but hate Shang Rong and spat at the door of the Shang Mansion. Suddenly, he remembered that the emperor had already left and quickly chased after him!
When Ling Fan returned to Chaoyang Palace, he immediately summoned all the ministers to the court. The ministers were in the main hall of the Imperial Court, wondering why the Emperor had suddenly summoned them!
"His Majesty has arrived!" Following the eunuch's shout, Ling Fan sat down in the throne room with an imposing manner and flung his dragon robe.
The ministers immediately quieted down and knelt down.”
This was Ling Fan's first time attending court. However, as a military strategist in his previous life, Ling Fan had seen all kinds of things. He said calmly," Dear ministers, please rise. I'm here to ask you to collect materials and build something for me!”
As Ling Fan spoke, he waved his hand at the eunuchs beside him. Two eunuchs came up and suddenly pulled out a horizontal drawing. If the people from Earth were here, they would definitely recognize the design blueprint of the tank. This was the picture that Ling Fan had scanned with his A. I. when he came back. It was vivid and lifelike.
"Your Majesty, what is this thing that looks like an iron box?" asked the ancient people curiously.”
Ling Fan found it funny. These ancient people actually called tanks iron boxes. However, his expression was calm as he explained," This is called a tank. It's made of cast iron on the outside. It can be equipped with cannons on the inside. When people are inside, they can easily kill the enemy!”
Everyone was puzzled by this design and questioned it. However, since it was proposed by the emperor, they couldn't find fault with it. At this time, another minister said," Your Majesty, do you mean to build this?"”
Ling Fan nodded and said," I've already designed the blueprints for you. I'll give you ten days to gather all the skilled craftsmen in the world and make three of them for me!”
The ministers looked at each other. In ten days, to create something they had never seen before, and to build three more, it was probably not realistic!
At this moment, a 70-year-old official with a long white beard stood out. His words caught Ling Fan's attention.
The old minister said," Your Majesty, I'm afraid I don't know what your Majesty is building these for. Now that the world is in chaos, the national treasury is tight. Your Majesty has been recruiting people to build Deer Terrace a few days ago, so that the people won't have to live in poverty. Now that Deer Terrace hasn't been built yet, you want to build this thing again. Your Majesty, please think twice!”
Ling Fan frowned. Deer Terrace Pavilion? That's right, how could he have forgotten about Deer Terrace? The construction of Deer Terrace was a waste of money and lives. Legend had it that the bottom of Deer Terrace was made of white bones and flesh. It could be seen how many people had died in Deer Terrace!
The ministers were all extremely shrewd and experienced in politics. When they saw the emperor frown, they thought that the emperor was angry again.
A person immediately stood up and said to the old official," Bigan, His Majesty ordered me to build Deer Terrace for the sake of His Majesty's future generations. For His Majesty to have a peaceful place to cultivate and let His Majesty be healthy is a blessing for Great Shang. How can you say that it's a waste of manpower and money?”
Bi Gan snorted coldly and said," Chonghou Hu, I haven't reported you to His Majesty yet. As the commander-in-chief of Lutai, you didn't consider the people at all. You deducted food from the craftsmen and were extremely cruel. You actually beat those old, weak, sick, and disabled people to death. Tell me, where is your conscience?!"”
Bigan turned to the Emperor and said," Your Majesty, I didn't agree to you building Deer Terrace Pavilion from the start. You even promoted Hou Chonghou, the Count of the North, to be the Chief Supervisor. Do you know that he and Fei Zhongyou have colluded and killed so many commoners? Your Majesty, it's three or four times!”
Chonghou Hu sneered." Those old, weak, and sick can't do any work. They'll only drag down the construction of Deer Terrace Pavilion. What's the use of having them?" If Deer Terrace Pavilion isn't built for a day, how can His Majesty maintain his health? I'm doing this for His Majesty's sake. Can you afford to delay the construction of Deer Terrace Pavilion?”
As Ling Fan listened to the battle between the two people below, his eyes shot out a cold light. His entire body was filled with a cold aura as he shouted coldly at Chonghou Hu,"How dare you, Chonghou Hu…"
