In the Imperial Palace of the Great Han Empire, Empress Tang Ji, nine Imperial Concubines, and eighteen beauties were gathered together.
They were discussing cultivation, but each of them had a sad expression on their faces, as if they were hiding something in their hearts.
In fact, it was the news of the emperor riding a dragon and flying into the sky. Along with the triumphant return of the Demon Extermination Army, there was another shocking news: the emperor riding a dragon and flying into the sky.
"Sister Empress, do you think His Majesty has really become a dragon?”
Xiao Qiao couldn't help but ask. Da Qiao's expression changed slightly. He couldn't say such things.
"Sisters, don't worry. His Majesty will be fine. He will return sooner or later.”Tang Ji smiled and comforted the girls.
Boom!
Just as the women were discussing, a shocking tremor suddenly came from above the palace. Everyone looked up in unison.
In the next moment, everyone in Luoyang saw an unforgettable scene.
"What's that?"
Countless people were shocked as they looked at the sky above Luoyang's imperial palace. Suddenly, a huge hole opened up, and a terrifying light surged out from it.
Immediately after, a purple-gold divine dragon suddenly emerged from within. It roared in anger, and its roar spread across hundreds of miles, shaking the world.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty has descended from the Immortal World?"
In an instant, the entire Imperial City was in an uproar. Countless soldiers of the Great Han Dynasty were pleasantly surprised as they saw the purple-gold divine dragon suddenly appear. On it stood a proud and powerful figure.
The person who came was Xia Chen. He had returned once again, riding a dragon back in a domineering manner, announcing that the emperor of the Han Dynasty had returned.
"Zhen has returned!"
Xia Chen shouted loudly, and his voice spread throughout Luoyang. Countless people heard it and saw the current emperor descend to the mortal world on a dragon.
The effect was still very good. It could obtain the fanatical support of countless people in Luoyang City and even become the only supreme belief.
"My emperor is immortal, and the Great Han is eternal!"
Countless subjects and soldiers knelt down in unison. The slogan had changed. After all, it was no longer appropriate to shout long live. It was rumored that His Majesty had already become an immortal, so he naturally would be immortal.
"No need for formalities, rise!"
Xia Chen rode on the Purple-gold Divine Dragon and floated above the Imperial Palace. He looked down at the entire Luoyang City and emitted a powerful dragon aura.
Beside him, flood dragons danced and circled. The scene was extremely shocking. A total of 1,000 flood dragons surrounded the purple-gold Dharmic powers True Dragon.
At this moment, countless people were certain that Xia Chen was the True Dragon Son of Heaven and had even become a true immortal.
"From today onwards, I will restore my true name. Descendants of the Xia, Xia Chen, this is my true name.”
As these words spread, all the officials, millions of soldiers, and countless civilians in Luoyang were stunned.
But soon, everyone realized that no matter what Tian Zi's real name was, it was not something they could say.
"In addition, I want to rebuild the Great Han Empire!”
Another order was passed down, and it exploded like a heavy bomb. Countless ministers 'expressions changed as they looked at Xia Chen in shock.
Was he going to change the world?
"I am the Son of Heaven, but the power of the Nine Provinces has been lost outside. My beloved ministers and subjects of the Great Han Dynasty, how can I be at ease?”
"We are willing to die for Your Majesty!"
As soon as Xia Chen finished speaking, the civil and military officials expressed their willingness to die for the emperor.
Xia Chen nodded in satisfaction as he looked at the court officials, countless soldiers, and millions of Luoyang citizens kneeling down fervently.
He slowly said," Pass down the imperial edict and announce to the world that all the state governors, county governors, and prefects are to immediately enter the capital to see me. Those who do not arrive within five days will be considered traitors and their nine families will be executed."”
Whoosh!
As soon as he finished speaking, the entire city was in an uproar. Countless people were shocked. This meant that all the officials in the world had to come to the capital to meet him.
Furthermore, this was a revolution, a heaven-shaking change that had never happened before in the Great Han Empire. No one knew what would happen to the empire in the future.
However, they knew that with the emperor's powerful decree, those who did not come would be regarded as traitors. They would be directly punished and their entire family would be exterminated.
"Soldiers, listen up. If you don't arrive in five days, immediately send troops to attack and kill your entire family!”
Xia Chen waved his hand, and his cold order was filled with killing intent, causing countless people to tremble in fear.
"Honorable order!"
Lu Bu, Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, and the other generals all accepted the order, especially the millions of soldiers who were participating in the expedition. This was the most elite army.
It was the strongest force in Xia Chen's hands. How terrifying was the two million demonized army?
As the imperial edict spread throughout the world, the Great Han Empire was once again in an uproar. The emperor had descended on a dragon and was going to rebuild the Great Han Empire.
At this moment, all the mayors and overseers who had received the edict were terrified, and they immediately abandoned their work and rushed to the capital.
As for the border provinces, they also handed over their work and rushed to the capital to meet the emperor.
What a joke, who would dare not to come? The Son of Heaven rode a dragon and flew into the sky. Now that he had returned, didn't that mean that the Son of Heaven could return after becoming an immortal? Who would dare to act rashly?
In less than five days, in just three days and three nights, all the county governors and mayors of the various provinces in the Great Han Empire had arrived.
"Everyone, I will make the decision. Civil and military officials will be separated, civil officials will govern the country, and generals will lead the army.”
With just one sentence, all the officials in the court were shocked. Even the state governors and prefects from all over the country were all mercenaries.
Who didn't have thousands of soldiers in their hands? Now that the emperor said that he wanted to take back these military powers, they could only be officials and not lead troops.
In other words, he would not be able to have a private army. The military power of the entire Great Han Empire would be concentrated in the hands of Xia Chen.
"Those who agree, sign the contract and hand over the military power. Those who disagree, disband and return to the fields!”
On the throne, Xia Chen's expression was calm. His imposing aura made it difficult for the civil and military officials in the hall to breathe. All of them were in awe.
No one dared to object and directly signed the contract obediently. Their souls were controlled and they handed over all their military authority.
At this point, the Prefecture Overseers and Prefects would no longer have military authority, and the entire Great Han Empire would welcome a drastic transformation.
"Announce to the world that all clans are not allowed to rear private soldiers, and the number of servants and handymen cannot exceed 300.”
"I will hand over my private soldiers within three days. Those who don't hand them over after the deadline will be exterminated. Those who resist will be killed without mercy!”
Another decree spread throughout the world. This time, it was from all the renowned clans in the Great Han Empire. Their expressions changed drastically as anger, fear, and panic filled the air.
All of a sudden, the entire Great Han Empire was shaken. Countless prestigious families believed that the emperor wouldn't dare to touch them because of their reputation.
However, after three days, the families that had not handed over their private soldiers were all wiped out by Lu Bu's army.
The bloody lesson shocked the entire world. In just a month, thousands of large families and famous families were wiped out. Once the news spread, the entire world was terrified.
Countless families immediately handed over their private soldiers and even their servants in fear, not daring to resist at all.
In River East, countless clans lived in fear.
"Father, are we really going to disband the clan's private army?”
In the Sun Clan, Sun Jian's son and daughter had solemn expressions. The emperor was straightforward this time. He wanted to shake the entire world and rebuild the Great Han Empire.
This was akin to shattering and reforging, handing over the military power of all the vassals in the world. Now, he was cleaning up the private soldiers of the famous families in the world. It was simply to completely concentrate the power in his hands.
"Hand it over. I'm already the Southern Conquering General and am serving Governor Zhou Yu. The only thing I can do is to expand the territory of the Great Han Empire for His Majesty.”
Sun Jian had seen it clearly. Ever since he had returned from the Demon War, the Sun Clan had understood that as long as the Great Han Empire had Xia Chen, it would not perish.
A month later, the entire Great Han Empire was completely renewed. It was cleaned up from the inside out, and countless soldiers were selected to be incorporated into the regular army.
The Great Han Empire currently had five massive armies. The First Army was led by Lu Bu, the Second Army by Zhao Yun, the Third Army by Cao Cao, the Fourth Army by Huang Zhong, and the Fifth Army by the Emperor's Guards.
The Emperor's Guards had officially incorporated one million of the most elite Demonized Warriors into their ranks. They had completely become the strongest Imperial Guards in the world.
There were also two other divisions of the Great Han Navy. The first division was led by Gan Ning, while the second division was led by Zhou Yu. Sun Jian and Sun Ce could only become navy generals.
........
"Your Majesty, are you leaving again?"
At this moment, in the Great Han Empire's Imperial Palace, Tang Ji and the other concubines were all looking at the Great Han Emperor before them. He was young, powerful, and awe-inspiring.
Xia Chen looked at them and smiled." Don't put on such an attitude. I will come back often to accompany you. Cultivate well. In the future, you will become immortals and live a long life."”
"Yes, ChenQie and others…He wanted to serve His Majesty before His Majesty left!”
Tang Ji, Diao Chan, Huang Yueying, Da Qiao, Xiao Qiao, and the others all blushed and were embarrassed. It was obvious that they wanted to serve Xia Chen before leaving.
"Good!"
Xia Chen was pleasantly surprised, but he readily agreed. This was the first time. After that, the nine concubines and eighteen beauties were together.
