"Is this very difficult? I have 1,000 disciples. In terms of talent, any one of them far surpasses you. It's easy for them to guard a county.”Xun Yu said lightly when he heard the old man's words.
"Impossible, I don't believe it." The old man's expression changed drastically as he looked at Xun Yu.
"Do I need you to believe me? As long as His Majesty believes it." Xun Yu said lightly.
"Your Majesty, don't listen to Xun Yu. If you kill us, the Great Zhen Dynasty will definitely be in chaos.”When the old man heard Xun Yu's words, Qin Zheng looked at Qin Zheng and shouted.
"I've seen Xun Yu's disciples. In terms of talent, each of them is ten times better than you.”Qin Zheng says indifferently.
"Alright, you should have nothing to say now. It's time to send you to meet my imperial uncle, King Mu.”Qin Zheng continued.
"Your Majesty, you can't kill us. Although we are the subjects of the Great Zhen Dynasty, we are also subjects of the Divine Sword Sect. Although you are the Emperor of the Great Zhen Dynasty and have the right to kill subjects, killing so many of us in one go is still too much.”The old man in the first grade official uniform looks at Qin Zheng and says in a deep voice.
"Then the Divine Sword Sect came to suppress me? Can you suppress it? In the past, the Divine Sword Sect was high and mighty, ruling over everything in the Great Zhen Dynasty. Now that I have succeeded to the throne, everything will change. I am the sky of the Great Zhen Dynasty. What is the Divine Sword Sect?”Qin Zheng says with a cold smile on his face when he hears the words of the old man.
"Your Majesty, how dare you disrespect the Divine Sword Sect?”
When the officials who were originally frightened by Qin Zheng's words heard his words, they suddenly seemed to have found their savior as they shouted at Qin Zheng.
Qin Zheng's words were extremely disrespectful. Once the Divine Sword Sect found out, Qin Zheng would definitely be severely punished. It was impossible for him to be the Emperor of the Great Zhen Dynasty. Qin Zheng was not the Emperor, so he had no right to execute them.
"It seems that the Divine Sword Sect is really invincible in your hearts.”Seeing the expressions of the officials, Qin Zheng's face revealed a cold smile.
"Your Majesty, any empire can only exist with the support of a sect. In the entire Qingyuan Domain, who dares to disrespect a sect? Not afraid of the sect? Your Majesty, I have once obtained a Sect Communication Talisman. I have secretly spread what Your Majesty said just now. If we die today, Your Majesty's words today will definitely reach the ears of the Divine Sword Sect.”
"But if Your Majesty doesn't pursue this matter, I guarantee that no one will know about what happened today.”The eyes of the old man in first grade official robes flash with a bright light as he looks at Qin Zheng and says in a deep voice.
"Don't you know that I'm more terrifying than the Divine Sword Sect?”
Hearing the old man's words, Qin Zheng's face flashed with coldness.
In the next moment, Qin Zheng activated the Son of Heaven Seal Technique.
"Boom!"
The instant the Son of Heaven God Sealing Art was activated, an incomparably terrifying imperial might instantly appeared on Qin Zheng's body.
When the officials felt Qin Zheng's majesty, it was as if they felt the might of the heavens. They involuntarily knelt on the ground, their faces filled with terror.
"Using the Divine Sword Sect to threaten me, I'm not afraid to tell you that I will soon conquer the Divine Sword Sect. The days when the sect dominated the empire will never come back.”Qin Zheng says coldly as he looks at the terrified civil and military officials on the ground.
After he finished speaking, Qin Zheng called his secret guards over.
"Bring them out and kill them."
Qin Zheng points at the officials kneeling on the ground and says coldly.
"Yes."
When the secret guards hear Qin Zheng's words, they respectfully nod their heads.
Soon, the secret guards began to drag the officials who colluded with King Mu out of the True Dragon Palace.
When they were dragged out of the True Dragon Palace, most of the officials were stunned.
These were all people with bad temperaments. Qin Zheng's emperor aura was too terrifying.
It scared a group of people silly.
Those who were not scared silly were also terrified and did not dare to say a word.
Only when they were executed did those officials who were not scared silly remember to beg for mercy.
But before they could speak, they were killed by the secret guards.
The secret guards were all at the divine-tier, so it was too easy for them to kill a group of mortals.
……………………
"All of you should resign and go home too. Just like them, when you heard about the Divine Sword Sect, you were all terrified and scared out of your wits. There is no need for cowards in my court. On account that you are all old officials, I will not punish you or confiscate your property.”
After those officials who colluded with King Mu were dragged out, Qin Zheng looked at the remaining officials in the True Dragon Palace and said indifferently.
Qin Zheng didn't leave any of the original officials of the Great Zhen Dynasty alive. He wanted to replace all of them.
In the future, the official positions of the Great Zhen Dynasty would be extremely precious. How could Qin Zheng leave them to mediocre people?
If there were talents among the civil and military officials, it would be fine, but Qin Zheng would definitely stay.
Even if his strength is low, Qin Zheng can still slowly nurture him.
Unfortunately, none of them were worth nurturing. Even if there were one or two who were not bad, they were just not bad. They were far from being talented.
He wasn't qualified to stay in the royal court of the True Dragon Palace.
Those who could enter the True Dragon Palace to attend the court meeting were all officials of the Fourth Stage.
Among the officials of the Great Zhen Dynasty, the most powerful ones were at most eighth or ninth rank officials in Qin Zheng's heart. How could he leave them with official positions of fourth rank and above?
…………
"As Your Majesty wills."
Hearing Qin Zheng's words, the remaining officials of the True Dragon Palace all lowered their heads respectfully.
If Qin Zheng hadn't revealed his terrifying emperor might, they might have argued a little.
For example, they had clearly done nothing wrong and were dedicated to their jobs. Why should they resign and go home?
But now, after Qin Zheng's majesty was fully displayed, they all understood how tyrannical Qin Zheng was. If they dared to argue, their fates would be the same as those officials who were dragged out, they would definitely die a death that couldn't be any more severe.
Their current Emperor would not reason with them. If they did not listen, they would die.
