A Step Into The Past: I Am Han Xin - C152
Han Huaichu buried his body in the pond, still using the Great Art of Breath and Breath, breathing slowly and continuously.
It wouldn’t be difficult for him to break out of the earth at this moment. He only needed to extend his palm and swipe to push away the dirt and rocks that were pressing down on him. It was just that this move was too big. Han Huaichu did not know of the situation around him, and did not dare to act rashly.
He then focused his mind and listened to what was going on in the palace.
From the sound of the footsteps of the teams in the palace, it seemed like the guards were patrolling. On the left side, about a hundred zhang away, the loudest voice was heard. Some people were attacking and cursing with their sharp voices. The man scolded: “Shao Sao, you shameless bastard! How can you accept Ji Feng as your emperor?”
An elderly voice thought that it was the Right Prime Minister Shao Sao who had defended him, “General Sima, why do you say that? The citizens of my Zhao State are all subjects of the Periventricular Chamber. With the descendants of the Eastern Zhou Duke here today, it would be reasonable for us to make him emperor. ”
And then one of them shouted, “Pui!” He scolded, “Could it be that the Prime Minister has gone mad?” Ever since Martial Spirit King, since when has there ever been a king who would put a weak and fragile Periventricular Chamber in his eyes? “Since the Zhou Dynasty is over, how can the Prime Minister agree to such an idiotic act?” Another person added, “It’s a big tree that attracts the wind.” If you looked at the world now, which duke would dare call themselves emperor? If you were to become the son of the heavens, wouldn’t that mean that the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians in my Handan would be trapped in the encirclement of heroes of the realm? ”
That Shao Sao must have been refuted until nothing came out of his mouth, as he stammered: “Doctor Cheng, aren’t you exaggerating a bit?”
General Si Ma roared: “Prime minister, do you know how many troops and horses my Handan City has? “You want to go against the great dukes of the world, are you dreaming?”
That Dr. Cheng went on to say something more sarcastic, “I knew you old fool to be the fence-sitter and the quickest to change your mind. Back then the King of Chen had sent you to be their guard, but you were the one who betrayed the King of Chen along the way. Now that the Martial King has not turned cold and you do not think about taking revenge, but instead want to side with Li Liang, the traitor, you truly are a shameless person. ”
So it turned out that the three people who berated Shao Sao were all people with Zhao State. One was the Guard Captain Sima Yang, who was in charge of the defense of the city’s Handan; the other was the doctor Cheng He.
The traitor Li Liang had followed Ji Feng’s orders and gathered the captured officials for a discussion in the hall. But Ji Feng didn’t show himself, he was only waiting for Li Liang’s council members to succeed and for him to be pushed onto the throne by the Zhao State Elder to restore Ji Zhou’s River Mountain Society.
The group of officials gathered together. When they saw Li Liang, they immediately asked him why he wanted to kill the King and kill all the other officials. Li Liang originally wanted to support Zhao Xie, but he was confident and confident. but they were controlled by Ji Feng, and had to raise their Periventricular Chamber. Even he found this reason absurd.
The moment Li Liang said that, the entire hall was in an uproar, all the officials were cursing and shouting, no one agreed to it.
Li Liang had experienced the taste of a Fire Soul Flag before, so he was determined to make Ji Feng the Son of Heaven. After being scolded by the crowd of officials, their embarrassment turned into anger, causing people to push the one who had cursed the most, Situ Deng Xi, out of the crowd. Deng Xi did not wait for Li Liang to make a move and cursed loudly before he died from the impact.
This matter had caused blood to spatter the imperial court, all the officials experienced Li Liang’s cruel side, and were all silent!
At this time, the cunning Right Prime Minister Shao Sao had a great surprise. He spoke out to support and support Ji Feng as the emperor. He was even thick-skinned enough to flatter Li Liang, praising him for bringing prosperity to Ji Zhou Zong and the United Nations. His achievements were comparable to Lu Shang, who had exterminated the entire world.
Li Liang was overjoyed upon hearing that, and immediately said: “Since Premier Shao has also agreed to restore Periventricular Chamber, this matter is decided. Tomorrow is an auspicious day. After the altar has been raised and the heaven and earth have been sacrificed, the enthronement ceremony will be held. ” Without waiting for the officials to say more, he left excitedly to report the news to Master Ji Feng. He did not allow the rest of the officials to return to the manor either, leaving the group of ministers behind in the hall.
The soldiers on top of the hall also did not leave. Each of them glared at the crowd like tigers eyeing their prey to prevent anyone from making any unusual movements. The officials all stared blankly. It was no different from house arrest.
In the evening, Li Liang did not even bother with food, he only looked at the group of officials for 6 hours, until he was hungry to the point that his chest was pressed against his back. From the looks of it, this night was going to be wasted here. Then someone sat down on the floor, not caring if this was the court or not.
It was still that shameless Shao Sao who asked the guards if they could have a meal together. Then, someone asked Li Liang for instructions. Only then did Li Liang remember that the pillars of this group of nations had not eaten. At the inauguration ceremony for Zhou Tianzi tomorrow, all of the officials would starve to death. He then spread the word and led everyone to the side hall for a meal.
When the officials arrived at the side palace, they prepared a feast. Those soldiers also didn’t follow in, only guarding the outside of the hall.
Without the guards from Li Liang’s subordinates, the crowd of officials exploded with anger towards Shao Sao, and the farce that Han Huaichu had heard played out once again.
On the ground, Han Huaichu could only hear the crowd of officials cursing more and more fiercely, and the cursing becoming more and more unpleasant to listen to, even Shao Sao’s ancestors, who were eight hundred generations old, were cursing out loud.
He suddenly heard Sima Yang shouting loudly, “Old fool, take one of my punches!”
With a “ka” sound, it seemed as if Shao Sao received a heavy blow. Han Huaichu thought, “You haven’t scolded enough, let’s fight.”
Then, he heard Shao Sao scream miserably, as if he could not handle Sima Yang’s punch. Someone then cried out in alarm, “This is bad, the prime minister was killed by General Si Ma!” Sima Yang said: “You deserve it if I beat you to death.”
Han Huaichu thought in his heart: Serves you right if I beat you to death.
The sound of hurried footsteps could be heard as someone shouted, “What happened?” Sima Yang was not afraid, and said calmly: Go and report to the traitor Li Liang, tell him that the old man, Shao Sao, was beaten to death by me, Sima Yang.
The guards did not seem to know how to handle the situation. They quickly retreated and went to report to Li Liang about the sudden turn of events.
Thus, the side hall quietened down, and Han Huaichu could only hear the chewing sounds of the people.
Before long, the sounds of footsteps came from Han Huaichu’s right. His steps were heavy and vigorous. When they were three meters away from the pond, they stopped.
Then there was a knock at the door. A voice travelled to Han Huaichu’s ears, “Who is it?”
Han Huaichu could not be more familiar with the voice. It was precisely the Devil Lord Ji Feng who was slaying snakes with his own Mangdang Mountain!
Han Huaichu broke out in a cold sweat. This Devil Lord was actually close to ten meters!
A distance of ten meters, for an expert like Ji Feng, was just around the corner. With Ji Feng’s hearing ability, as long as Han Huaichu took a slight breath, he would be able to hear everything clearly.
Han Huaichu thought that luckily he had used the Great Art of Breath and buried himself in the ground, otherwise, he would have already been seen through by this Devil Lord.
Thus, he focused on listening to the conversation over there.
The one who came was Li Liang. He received the news that Shao Sao had been beaten to death and hurried over to ask Ji Feng for instructions on how to deal with it. And the palace where Ji Feng resided was right now.
Li Liang reported: “Master, it’s me.” Ji Feng replied with an “Oh” and said: “General Li, in the future, you will be my Prime Minister. Please remember that we must treat each other as monarchs in front of others. Don’t call me master anymore.”
Li Liang was overjoyed, and said another sentence: “Thank you, Master.” Ji Feng was annoyed: “Why do you have such a bad memory?” Li Liang chuckled: “I was so happy for a moment, I forgot to change my words. From now on, I will call Master Your Majesty. ”
“This Li Liang really doesn’t remember. He talked about another master.” Han Huaichu found it funny.
Ji Feng then asked: “What does General Li want to say?” Li Liang then reported the matter of Shao Sao’s death to Ji Feng, and asked: “Your majesty, should we take down Sima Yang for punishment?”
Ji Feng said indifferently: “No need.” Li Liang asked in confusion: “That Sima Yang was obviously dissatisfied with his Majesty being the emperor, that’s why he beat Shao Sao to death. Why doesn’t His Majesty punish such a vile vassal to set an example? ”
Ji Feng smiled slightly: “You don’t understand this. I have not yet ascended to the throne and am trying to win back the hearts of the people. Shao Sao was a shameless person who was afraid of death. Sima Yang is an honest man, my Great Zhou Empire is lacking such loyal and brave men. If I am able to spare him, he will be deeply grateful to me for my kindness from now on. ”
Li Liang suddenly said: “Your majesty is wise, this humble subject has been enlightened.”
Ji Feng then said: “We suddenly think of something, you can send people to settle it.” Li Liang asked. Ji Feng said: “Go record all the names of all the citizens within the Handan and send them to the palace, do not leave a single one out.” Li Liang was puzzled again. “Why does Your Majesty want the word ‘birthright’?” Ji Feng replied impatiently: “We have our own uses, don’t ask too much.”
Han Huaichu was also puzzled, he did not know what use the Devil Lord had for him.
Li Liang replied with a smile, then flattered her, “Isn’t it too lonely for Your Majesty to be alone in his chambers? This humble subject has obtained more than 10 people from Wu Chen’s concubines today.
Ji Feng frowned, and said: “Are you the ones who met them in the garden today?” Li Liang nodded: “That’s right.” Ji Feng said impatiently: “How can those ordinary, fat, and ordinary girls serve us? I’ll leave it for your own use. ”
Li Liang was speechless. Those imperial concubines, each and every one of them were absolute beauties that could only look at Li Liang and the other martial artists with burning desire. He had already harbored thoughts of taking it for himself, but without Ji Feng’s permission, he didn’t dare to take these treasures. Ji Feng actually called these beauties mediocre! His standards were too high.
How could he know that Ji Feng had summoned his Heavenly Devil of Chaos, who had existed between heaven and earth since ancient times, and summoned the Devil Emperor, who had always been the most revered in the world, to look above his head. None of these Zhao Palace beauties had caught his eyes yet.
Would Ji Feng not be moved? No. Ji Feng had originally started his cultivation of the Immortal Dao from Chi Songzi, he did not have any desire, and did not have any emotional or lustful thoughts. However, his consciousness had fused with Sword Devil Guan Zhongxie’s, and after entering the Demonic Dao, various desires and emotions were born from his mind, and this emotion was one of them.
In the Cloudy Dreamy Mountain, Ji Feng had met the great talented girl Ji Yanran. At that time, he only wanted to seek revenge on Xiang Shaolong and use the divine intent of the Sword Devil Guan Zhongxie.
With Ji Feng’s arrogance, it was impossible for the young Ji Yanran to be moved by the Devil Lord.
Since Ji Feng was not willing to accept it, Li Liang was happy to take the beauty that he obtained today and put his into his private property. He was secretly overjoyed. He just wanted to properly deal with those beautiful ladies of the Zhao Palace tonight.
Li Liang could not help but ask: “Since Your Majesty is now the son of heaven, this harem cannot be left empty. Otherwise, how could there be a successor for Your Majesty? I wonder what kind of beauty is worthy of your majesty? ”
Ji Feng looked up at the horizon outside the window, and faintly said: “There is no one in this world who has lived for thousands of years. I’m afraid only Chang’e in the middle of the moon can comfort me. ”
In Ji Feng’s heart, only a fairy like appearance was worthy of this Devil Lord.
Li Liang’s heart moved, and said: “So it turns out that Your Majesty wants the fairies from the heavens. However, this humble subject has heard that there is a person in this world whose appearance is comparable to a Celestial Immortal’s. ” Ji Feng made a “en” sound, “Is there still such a beauty in the world?”
Hearing that, Han Huaichu’s heartbeat suddenly sped up, the person that Li Liang was about to say was about to burst out from his chest.
Indeed, Li Liang said: “This humble subject has heard that the Mo family’s female disciple, Yu Zhiya, has an unparalleled beauty, and is even more beautiful than a Heavenly Immortal. The Qin Army had captured Ying Bu in her beauty, causing his to forget about killing intent on the battlefield, as she pierced and injured him with his sword. ”
Hearing that, Ji Feng’s interest was piqued, and he said: “Is there really such a beauty in the world? I must take a good look. If it’s really as the rumors say, I’ll take her into my harem and make her my concubine. ”
Ji Feng had met Yu Zhiya once before at Wanzai Valley. At that time, Yu Zhiya was riding on top of the Magpie Hawk, flying above Meng Yi’s camp. It was just that at that time, Ji Feng was still a teenager and did not have any distractions in his heart, so he did not pay any attention to him.
After hearing Li Liang’s words, he had a glimpse at this beauty’s beautiful appearance and thoughts.
And Han Huaichu who was in the dirt, upon hearing that Ji Feng actually wanted to take his as his concubine, would find it hard to suppress his heart and breath and cultivate the Great Breath Technique. When he stopped using the Great Art of Breath and Breath, he could not help but take in a deep breath. A smell of mud wafted through his nose, but how could he breathe in it? Han Huaichu could only hold his breath, as he used his hands to pull the air out of the ground.
He immediately realized that something was amiss and hurriedly tried to revive his Fetal Breath, but it was already too late.
Ji Feng’s face that was as white as jade darkened, he took a big stride out of his room, as his sharp gaze shot towards the pond in the garden.
