While Qin Mo was in seclusion, nearly seven days had passed in the outside world.
During this period of time, the King of Subei's Residence had been as low-key as usual. However, the atmosphere suddenly became tense and oppressive.
Outside the Imperial Residence, some figures had suddenly appeared.
From time to time, he would openly look around the residence, wantonly sizing up and monitoring it without any scruples.
It was as if they were certain that the King of Subei would not do anything to them.
In the palace of the True Martial Imperial Palace.
It was already past midnight, and the night had already covered the entire palace.
Inside Yuan He Hall, where the Emperor handled government affairs, it was brightly lit by candles.
Si Hao, the new Emperor of the True Martial Dynasty, was wearing a bright yellow robe with a five-clawed golden dragon. He was sitting on a dragon throne in the palace.
The scent of sandalwood wafted in the air, but Si Hao did not seem to be in the mood to deal with government affairs.
He leaned back on the dragon throne. The memorial on the table was casually opened, but Si Hao could not read a single word.
He had just ascended the throne, although it had not been a year.
However, he also knew that if an emperor wanted to have enough authority, he had to have absolute control over the military power in the dynasty.
King of a different surname, these three words had always been the biggest thorn in his heart since he ascended the throne.
The prestige of the 200,000 Beihan Army in the Northern Frontier was far greater than that of the King of Subei.
After Si Hao took over the throne, he tried his best to wait for an opportunity to get rid of the King of Subei.
However, because of the reward given by Taizu's edict, he could not forcefully slaughter the King of Subei's residence with a groundless crime.
Otherwise, if the news reached the Beihan Army, it would cause a mutiny.
Therefore, the Fiendish Essence Skill that the King of Subei's Mansion cultivated became the main breakthrough point.
Under Si Hao's 'orders' and 'generous bestowings', the previous King of Subei, Qin Mu, who was also Qin Mo's father...
He had always been exhausted from the war in the Great Yan Empire. His cultivation quickly reached a critical point. In the end, he could not control the baleful aura from invading his body and exploded.
Qin Mu's death also allowed Si Hao to finally see the best opportunity to regain control of the Northern Frost Army.
After all, who didn't know that Qin Mu's son, Qin Mo, the last generation's King Subei, had average cultivation and talent?
And not as young as a teenager.
At such an age, it was much easier to control Qin Mo than to deal with Qin Mu!
At least, that was what Si Hao thought.
With Qin Mu's death, the King of Subei's Residence would definitely fall into desolation. Originally, the thought of leaving behind a descendant for the King of Subei's Residence had flashed through Si Hao's mind.
After all, putting aside the prestige of King Subei's Mansion in the army, Qin Mo's grandfather, Qin Hu, and father, Qin Mu...
These two generations of King Subei had made great contributions to the True Martial Empire. With him guarding the border and resisting the Great Yan Empire's army, the current stability of the northern territory was obtained.
Therefore, in the half a year after Qin Mu's death, Si Hao had turned a blind eye and hadn't decided how to deal with Qin Mo.
In the past half a year, Qin Mo had also steadily inherited the title of Lord Subei.
However, what Si Hao did not expect was that a few days ago, a piece of news came from the Imperial City, which immediately made his mood turn extremely bad.
The future empress that he valued was actually very close to Qin Mo.
Some people even saw him riding in the same carriage as Qin Mo.
When Si Hao first found out about this news, he felt a surge of anger from the bottom of his heart.
Even though he guessed that Qin Mo was famous for his talent in the Imperial City and Xiao Yunxi was a talented woman, the two of them were probably just exchanging literature like they used to.
Even if Qin Mo was bolder, he wouldn't dare to do anything to Xiao Yunxi.
However, the past was the past, and the present was the present!
Now that Xiao Yunxi was the future empress, Qin Mo did not know how to avoid suspicion. He simply did not put the deterrence of the imperial power in his eyes.
Si Hao was even more dissatisfied with the respect he had for the imperial power.
This also made Si Hao hate and dislike the King of Subei's residence that he had been hiding in his heart.
It had been attacking him repeatedly over the past few days, making him even more unable to suppress it.
"Humph!"
With a cold snort, Si Hao's expression darkened.
"What's going on with the King of Subei today?”
As soon as Si Hao finished speaking, he saw a middle-aged eunuch with a ruddy complexion. It was obvious that he had extraordinary cultivation.
Her eyes, which were initially closed, suddenly opened slightly. She then walked quickly to Si Hao's side and bowed.
"Your Majesty, according to the reports from our spies, it is as usual.”
"Still in seclusion?"
"Yes, Your Majesty."
……
As soon as he finished speaking, Si Hao's expression turned strange.
This Qin Mo was only a martial artist who had not even reached the seventh level of the Body Refinement Realm. Did he need so much time to enter seclusion?
Si Hao slowly got up, left the table, and started pacing around in deep thought.
However, no matter how hard he racked his brains, Si Hao still could not figure out what Qin Mo was up to.
"Forget it."
"Decree-"
"Tsk!"
