Wang Ming wasn't the only one. Almost all the cultivators in the City of Brisk who had entered the ranks were embarrassed by the terrifying killing intent.
In the Prime Minister's residence, Zhao Ping was holding a brush in his hand. He seemed to be painting to cultivate his character.
His expression suddenly shook, and the brush fell from his hand, dying the dragon robe he had drawn on the paper blood red.
In the Yin Manor, the Minister of Personnel Affairs, Yin Ding, was sleeping.
He was jolted awake from his bed. He sensed the source of the murderous aura and immediately sweated profusely.
The killing intent came from the General's Estate, and it was obvious that this aura wasn't stupid, Wang Ming.
In other words, it was almost certain that Great General Wang Ming had already…
In a huge courtyard in the Di Residence, Di Renjie was giving a lecture to the scholars who had come to participate in the imperial examination.
At noon, when Jiang Chen appointed him as the chief examiner of the first imperial examination in the State of Qin, he did not avoid outsiders.
The news quickly spread.
The examinees felt that Di Renjie was too young. He had not even been crowned. He was commonly known as an underage and immature boy. He was not qualified to be an examiner at all.
Some people went to test Di Renjie, but they were immediately fooled by his profound knowledge. In the blink of an eye, they turned into bootlickers and blocked Di Renjie in the courtyard to discuss knowledge.
Although it was called a discussion, it was actually Di Renjie's lecture. The others listened with admiration and admiration, no different from a class.
Di Renjie was talking enthusiastically.
He suddenly sensed Li Yuan Fang's murderous aura, and it was in the direction of the Great General's Estate. His expression was instantly shocked.
In a small place like the State of Qin, cultivators of the Third Stage weren't as rare as phoenix feathers or qilin horns, but rather, they shouldn't appear at all.
However, he was only surprised for a moment. In the next second, when he thought of the hidden monarch, his expression returned to normal again. He felt that everything was as it should be.
He even felt that he was very wise and had seen through everything.
After all, he had thought about it before. If he didn't have something to rely on, who would rashly issue such a heaven-defying monarch order that could almost uproot the foundation of a noble family?
……
"What the hell?"
Li Yuan Fang's killing intent rippled throughout the City of Brisk, causing almost all the cultivators who had entered the rank to tremble in fear.
In the military camp, although Jiang Chen did not sense Li Yuanfang's killing intent, he was still able to sense it.
However, he was also confused by some unexpected situations.
At this moment, a series of notifications were displayed on the virtual screen in front of him.
[Hint: Right Assistant Minister of Rites, Chief Examiner of the Science Examinations, Di Renjie has sensed the player's hidden abilities. Loyalty 10. Current Loyalty: 80.]
[Hint: Minister of Official Personnel Affairs Yin Ding. Due to fear of the player's strength, Loyalty 10. Current Loyalty: 70]
[Hint: Minister of Official Personnel Affairs Yin Ding. Because of the player's method of hiding his strength, he was shocked by the player's strategy. Loyalty 10. Current Loyalty: 80.]
[Hint: Prime Minister Zhao Ping…]
Almost all of the important missions in the State of Qin had a collective increase in loyalty in just a few minutes.
Even though many people still failed after the increase, it was still much more pleasing to the eye compared to the previous loyalty of 20 to 30.
This was especially true for those who were originally hovering around the edge of sixty. This time, they actually reached eighty.
These people could be considered standard fence-sitters. They would side with whoever was stronger.
He had originally planned to kill them all. However, if their loyalty exceeded 80, he could consider punishing them as a warning to the others and make them stay behind to atone for their sins.
The nobles had to be cleaned up and restricted, but they could not be wiped out either.
He still had to leave behind a few role models and benchmark.
……
"Why isn't he back yet?"
Half an hour later.
On the high platform of the military camp.
Jiang Chen couldn't help but feel a little strange when Li Yuanfang didn't return.
The capital city of the Qin country was very small. With Li Yuan Fang's speed, such a long time was probably enough to circle around it ten times.
Did it take so long to catch a few Rank-1 and 2 martial artists?
He did not suspect that Li Yuanfang was absent-minded.
However, considering the surge in loyalty just now, he had some doubts. Could something have happened in the city?
Just as he was thinking, the gate of the military camp opened with a loud bang.
Zhao Gao quickly walked up to the high platform, cupped his fists and reported,
"Your Majesty, Lord Di Xiaoxu is here.”
Di Xiaoxu?
Jiang Chen was surprised, but he did not delay and said casually,
"Invite him in."
"Yes."
Two minutes later, Zhao Gao brought Di Xiaoxu up the stage.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Di Xiaoxu came up, he knelt down in front of him.
His entire body seemed to have collapsed as he cried out in tears,
"Your Majesty, an appalling tragedy happened in the General's Mansion. Thousands of slaves were slaughtered.
They... these damn bastards, they are actually refining blood iron, a large amount of blood iron.
General Li has already taken control of the criminals and entrusted me to report to His Majesty.”
