The hundred thousand troops saluted in unison.
Zhu Xianfeng suddenly felt a sense of heroism.
At this moment.
He finally understood why the heroes in history wanted to conquer the world.
Because the feeling of holding power in one's hands was too f * cking awesome.
As long as he said the word.
Immediately, there would be 100,000 people, or even a million people, charging into the battle for him, attacking the city and seizing the land.
Perhaps this was the thrill of conquering.
Not only could he conquer the world, but he could also conquer the hearts of the people!
With a bit of boldness, Zhu Xianfeng immediately rode his horse towards the Breaking Ranks Camp.
In the Breaking Ranks Camp, three people rode their horses to welcome them.
"Zhang Shun greets the Lord!"
"Greetings, Master!"
"Zhao Pu greets my Lord!"
The three of them stopped in front of Zhu Xianfeng's horse and bowed.
"There's no need for the three of you to be so polite!"
Although Zhu Xianfeng still looked indifferent, he was ecstatic in his heart.
He did not expect the system's top strategists to be Zhuge Liang and Zhao Pu.
These two could be called famous ministers for thousands of years.
Be it politics or strategy.
They belonged to the kind of statesmen who would make the vassals fear when they were angry, and the world rest when they were at peace.
With the help of these two, he would no longer need to be busy with internal affairs!
Thinking of this…
Zhu Xianfeng activated the Emperor's Eye skill to check their attributes.
Character: Zhuge Liang
[Loyalty: 100%]
[Strength: 28]
Intelligence: 99
Political Affairs: 108
Military Strategy: 102
[Commander: 89]
[Special Attributes: Array, Astronomy, Zither Skill]

[Loyalty: 100%]
[Strength: 26]
Intelligence: 97
Political Affairs: 100
Military Strategy: 92
[Commander: 80]
[Special Attributes: Perseverance, Vision]
After looking at their attributes, Zhu Xianfeng felt a surge of emotions.
Without a doubt.
Not only were the two of them top political talents, but their military strategy and commander attributes were also not low.
Especially Zhuge Liang.
His political and military strategies had already exceeded 100!
"Kong Ming, Zhao Pu, I've just taken over the Ji 'nan Prefecture, so I'll leave the government affairs to the two of you!" Zhu Xianfeng smiled.”
"I will obey the Lord's orders!"
Zhuge Liang and Zhao Pu replied in unison.
"Zhang Shun, lead the 50,000 warriors of the Breaking Ranks to set up camp!”
"Understood!"
Zhang Shun cupped his hands and bowed before leaving.
Soon after.
Zhu Xianfeng went to a hidden place and conjured 200,000 dan of grain.
With Zhuge Liang and Zhao Pu around, Zhu Xianfeng handed over the entire military and political power of the government to the two of them.
Under the two's efficient governance ability.
The people of Jinan quickly returned to normal.
Moreover, it was even clearer than when Huang Gui was the prefect. It was a flourishing scene.
During the period of consolidating Jinan, Zhu Xianfeng did not idle.
He established a secret base in a depopulated area in Li City that specialized in the study of firearms and devoted himself to it.
……
Yingtian Capital, Fengtian Hall.
"Your Majesty, King Qi…King Qi has rebelled…Wuwuwu…I've also lost Jinan!”
The miserable Huang Gui was brought to the throne room.
Like a bullied child who saw an adult, she immediately cried to Zhu Yunwen.
"What?"
Zhu Yunwen suddenly stood up from the dragon throne, her face full of fear.
The officials, including Huang Zicheng, were also shocked and in an uproar.
"King Qi has truly rebelled. What should we do?”
"Once the rebellion of the vassal kings begins, the Ming Dynasty will not be at peace!”
"This official has long advised that we can't be too hasty in cutting the vassals. Now, there's really a disaster!”
"In this old man's opinion, the only way to mend the situation is to stop cutting the vassals.”
“……”
All the officials in the hall whispered to each other.
Only Fang Xiaoru remained calm and composed, as if he would not flinch even if Mount Tai collapsed in front of him.
It was as if there was nothing to be afraid of even if King Qi rebelled!
Zhu Yunwen tried to calm down and asked Huang Gui,"Minister Huang, tell me, when did King Qi rebel? Why didn't the Brocade Guard report back to the court when they went to Qingzhou?”
"Your Majesty, King Qi suddenly led the Qingzhou army to invade Jinan a month ago. In less than half a month, they arrived at the capital, Li City. I led 30,000 soldiers to fight against them for three days, but there were insufficient weapons in the city and we were unable to defend against Li City!”
"When the city was broken, if I hadn't been quick-witted and used a golden cicada to escape from Li City, I'm afraid I would have been beheaded long ago!”
Huang Gui's words were mournful, and his voice was like a weeping cuckoo, which made people cry when they heard it.
Zhu Yunwen's dragon face was furious,"Taking down Jinan Prefecture in half a month?" Where are my Jinyiwei? Are the Embroidered Uniform Guards all trash?"
"Your Majesty, we have lost contact with the Brocade Guards who went to Qingzhou. I…I have been investigating for half a month but have no clue, so I dare not rashly report to Your Majesty!”
The Imperial Guard hurriedly stood up and reported resentfully.
"Your Majesty…the Brocade Guard that went to Qingzhou seems to have all been killed!”
Huang Gui remembered that when he escaped from Li City, a group of cavalrymen was killing the Jinyiwei.
"It seems that Zhu Xiong has been plotting for a long time!”
Zhu Yunwen asked the officials with a pained expression,"Now that Zhu Rong is rebelling, do you have any good ideas to share my worries?”
Xu Huizu, the Duke of Wei, walked into the hall and cupped his hands."Reporting to Your Majesty, Zhu Xi's rebellion is indeed heinous, but it also proves that the strategy of cutting the vassal state is too hasty. I sincerely request that for the sake of the people of the world, we postpone the cutting of the vassal state!”
As the brother-in-law of the King of Yan, Zhu Di, Xu Huizu had received a letter from Zhu Di, and the words were also contradictory.
But he didn't expect King Qi Zhu to rebel first.
If the King of Qi and the King of Yan joined forces, then the Imperial Court would truly be in danger.
It was because of this understanding that he advised Zhu Yunwen to postpone the reduction of the vassal state.
"Duke of Wei is wrong!"
A voice that sounded like a great bell suddenly resounded throughout the hall.
Following that-
Fang Xiaoru walked out of the ranks of officials with her head held high and bowed to Zhu Yunwen."Your Majesty, delaying the cutting of the vassal states is tantamount to raising a tiger to invite trouble. If the vassal kings of the various regions become powerful, what should we do when they are on equal footing with the imperial court?”
"In my opinion, not only can we not delay the reduction of the vassal states, but we must also speed up the pace of reduction and put pressure on the various vassal kings. As for King Qi Zhu, hehe…a mere 50,000 people from Qingzhou is nothing to worry about.”
Listening to these impassioned words.
Xu Huizu was very anxious, but he could not persuade Fang Xiaoru, so he could only sigh and retreat.
Zhu Yunwen was overjoyed."Minister Fang is really my loyal subject. With just a few words, you have clarified the pros and cons!”
Fang Xiaoru said modestly,"Your Majesty, you flatter me!"”
"Since ancient times, rebels have always raised a high-sounding banner for the sake of their cause. Minister Huang, what banner did Zhu Rong use when he rebelled?”
"Your Majesty…it is to kill the rebels, purge the emperor, and make the country in danger!”
"What is it? Jingnan?"
Zhu Yunwen was shocked!
