In just a few days, news of Mud Mountain Restaurant had spread throughout Northern Qi, and it had even begun to spread to other countries.
The world was shocked. They could easily obtain ordinary wine. It was indeed a rare wine in the world.
As for the spiritual wine, it would take some effort, but overall, it was not difficult.
This was because these martial artists who joined the Embroidered Uniform Guards because of the spirit wine were semi-free. It was more like a deal with the imperial court, but unless they didn't want the spirit wine, they wouldn't choose to betray.
However, it was inevitable for some people to spread the spirit wine for some reason.
As a result, many martial arts world forces and even official forces obtained spiritual wine.
After personally testing it, they were all stunned. Because the effects of the spirit wine were exactly the same as the legends. Countless people were jealous, but after knowing that it was the Northern Qi royal family's property, peace was restored.
Although the little Emperor did not have much power, he was still the Son of Heaven of Northern Qi. With just a word, he could command the world. He was not someone that any pro-society forces or martial arts sects could provoke.
Therefore, many martial artists in Jianghu could only choose to become Embroidered Uniform Guards in order to obtain spiritual wine. To become a member of the Embroidered Uniform Guards, one would have a token representing the Embroidered Uniform Guards, but one would not have to wear a flying fish robe or have a spring knife embroidered on one's waist.
In this way, they would have a lot of freedom. Only when the Jinyiwei needed them would they be recruited. Usually, he would only do intelligence work and supervise the officialdom and the martial world.
Of course, there were also some Jianghu people who were willing to join the Brocade Guard. Such people would have to give up their Jianghu identity. From now on, everything was for Northern Qi and for the Emperor.
Within the Phoenix Phoenix Hall.
"Bang!"
With a loud bang, the empress dowager smashed the wine cup in her hand onto the ground, shattering it into pieces.
"Damn it, how did this little Emperor do it? Fine wine, spirit wine, where did he get it?”
The empress dowager was furious. Because of the spirit wine, the little emperor had recruited many warriors in just a few days. He even gained the loyalty of some martial arts forces.
They became the supernumerary force of the Embroidered Uniform Guards, and in exchange, they received the Embroidered Uniform Guards 'spirit wine.
All they needed to do was to assist the Embroidered Uniform Guards, manage the local stability, investigate and punish corrupt officials, and so on.
It could be said that no one could refuse such a good thing. Although these martial world forces were third-rate or even unrated forces, they could not withstand the number of people!
A small force had dozens or hundreds of people, and a little more had thousands of people. Although they were not powerful, they were still martial artists. With so many forces combined, the power formed was terrifying.
This was also the reason why the Empress Dowager was furious. Unknowingly, Tantai Yue had managed to gather such a huge force with the help of a spirit wine.
Now, he did not dare to say that he could arm-wrestle with him, but he also had the strength to protect himself.
Because once these martial artists were roped in, they could immediately become an elite army. An army made up entirely of martial artists might be comparable to the former Fire Cloud Army of Nanliang.
Back then, the famous general of Nanliang, Luo Tian, relied on his 30,000 martial artists to sweep across the world and become invincible. He established the foundation of Nanliang.
Tantai Yue had the same trend now because the Embroidered Uniform Guards had tens of thousands of martial artists on board, and it was still growing rapidly. As long as a small portion of them could be converted into a loyal army, it would be an unimaginably terrifying force.
"Empress Dowager, the little Emperor must have the support of an expert or a force behind him. You must know that this spirit wine is a divine item that can seize the heavens 'fortune.”
"If the little Emperor had such a divine item before, she wouldn't have been so desperate.”
Prime Minister Rui said.
Everyone nodded. Only Meng Yi's eyes flashed.
"Reporting to the Empress Dowager, the little Emperor is not afraid, but the person behind the scenes who can support him to this extent is the most terrifying.”
"This subordinate requests that the Empress Dowager give this subordinate three months. This subordinate will definitely investigate everything thoroughly and remove the obstacles for the Empress Dowager.”
Meng Yi pretended to be loyal.
For a moment, the empress dowager and the other powerful ministers smiled in satisfaction.
"It is still Great Commander Meng who knows bengong's thoughts the best. The little Emperor is indeed not worth worrying about, he is just a brat that still smells of his milk.”
"I just don't know what kind of power is behind the little Emperor.”
The Empress Dowager said.
Meng Yi pondered for a moment.
"There are only a few forces in the world that can do this. The most likely one is Nan Liang.”
"As everyone knows, seven of the top ten wines in Langya are from Nanliang. And the world's number one wine master, Yuwen Zui, was the wine master of the Nanliang royal family. Other than him, no one else could brew such a rare wine.”
Meng Yi said as he casually pushed the blame onto Nan Liang.
All of this was taught by Mei Changsu to buy some time for Lin Tian and the others. Because for Lin Tian, time was his greatest capital.
Otherwise, the Empress Dowager would have to face the battle head-on. She would not be fully prepared. Lin Tian was waiting for Xiang Yu to surprise him. Now, they had Meng Yi, Lan Ling 'er, Azure Dragon, and Ling Changgu, four Upper Level Nine experts.
Vermilion Bird, Black Tortoise, and White Tiger were only ordinary Rank-9 masters. They had not yet entered the upper Rank-9, let alone the peak of the upper Rank-9.
Ling Changgu was the Lord of the Ling Castle, the father of the Empress. He was one of the few Level Nine experts and was also on the Langya Experts List.
However, even these four ninth-level masters were not enough to face a martial grandmaster, let alone two martial grandmasters.
Even if there was a divine weapon to destroy it, it was still insufficient. After all, destruction was not a divine weapon that could kill. If a great grandmaster wanted to escape, it would be difficult for destruction to hit him.
Lin Tian was waiting for Xiang Yu to return. When he returned with his army, he could officially start a war with the Empress Dowager. Although Xiangyu was a rank-nine upper peak expert, he was able to defeat Meng Yi in a few moves and could fight a martial grandmaster!
