The stormy night is destined to be a sleepless night.
The next day.
It's daybreak.
Qin Xu, who had shed all the evil fire, lay on the bed with a large font, sleeping soundly.
The stockings on the bed were torn into pieces and were in a mess.
Half of it was still on Qin Xu's head.
Qin Xu, who was immersed in the gentle countryside, didn't even bother to go to the morning court.
Anyway, he hasn’t officially ascended the throne yet.
Hey, it’s just a show~
Suddenly, a dagger light illuminated his eyes.
Qin Xu woke up suddenly, stretched out two fingers, and firmly grasped the knife stabbing his throat.
"Shameless thief, please clear my name!"
Shangguan Huan'er, who was wearing a purple sling, had tears in her eyes and held the dagger with murderous intent.
However, at the Martial Emperor level, she was no match for Qin Xu.
Not to mention, he was beaten severely all night long.
It’s hard to stand up now!
"I never thought you, little girl, have such a strong temperament!"
Seeing Shangguan Huan'er crying, Qin Xu also felt pity in his heart.
Unlike Xiao Lengyue, she simply enjoys the pleasure of revenge.
But with Shangguan Huan'er, there is a different kind of emotion.
"Don't worry, when this prince ascends the throne, I will give you a title and make you my concubine!"
Qin Xu made an unprecedented promise.
Shangguan Huan'er was stunned at first, as if he didn't expect Qin Xu to make such a promise.
But when she thought about it, she was a favorite of the empress and had received great favor from the emperor, but now she was sleeping with a treasonous traitor. She couldn't convince herself.
Seeing Shangguan Huan'er's face struggling, as if she couldn't pass his test, Qin Xu decided to sleep with her himself.
(Millions of words omitted here.)
Three quarters past noon.
The storm stopped suddenly.
No matter how stubborn the enemy is, they will be defeated and fall under this dense bombardment of artillery fire!
Shangguan Huan'er's whole body was like mud, slumped in Qin Xu's arms.
Qin Xu raised his slender fingers, brushed Shangguan Huan'er's flushed cheeks, and pushed her messy black hair behind her ears.
"Qin Xu, now you are only one step away from the enthronement ceremony and you are worthy of the name of emperor. There is no beautiful woman in the world who can't be found. Why do you fall in love with me?"
In his arms, Shangguan Huan'er blinked her beautiful eyes shyly, and asked while stroking Qin Xu's thick chest.
This question has always troubled her.
She asked herself, although she was quite pretty, she was definitely not the most beautiful woman in the world.
She was so scared that Qin Xu would just throw her away on a whim when he got tired of playing.
Qin Xu smiled and scratched Shangguan Huan'er's nose with his finger, and explained: "Maybe I can't forget it. On New Year's Eve six years ago, a girl outside Yingge Courtyard put down a box of steaming dumplings. Just the back figure that left secretly."
"You actually knew about what happened back then?"
When Shangguan Huan'er heard this, she couldn't help but raise her pretty flushed face and stared at Qin Xu in shock.
The girl's back that Qin Xu mentioned was none other than Shangguan Huan'er.
"nature!"
Qin Xu nodded generously and continued.
"I also know that you have been secretly sending money, rice and food to our master and servants over the years."
"He even prevented the Empress from assassinating her several times!"
"The imperial capital has been held hostage for ten years. Without your support and secret protection, I am afraid that our master and servant would have died long ago."
Qin Xu sighed, the fusion of memories made him feel the same way.
"Qin Xu, you bastard! You clearly knew what I did for you, so why did you humiliate me like that in the Jinluan Palace yesterday?"
Shangguan Huan'er glared at Qin Xu with resentful eyes and said angrily.
At this time, Qin Xu knew that no amount of explanations would be useful.
The best way is to try to block the other person's mouth.
After some lingering drawing.
Sure enough, Shangguan Huan'er completely forgot about what happened just now.
"Qin Xu, I am already yours, can I ask you something?"
Suddenly, Shangguan Huan'er spoke softly.
Qin Xu bent down and kissed Shangguan Huan'er, and said softly:
"Except for interceding for Xiao Lengyue, I can grant you anything else!"
Shangguan Huan'er's red lips trembled slightly, and she swallowed the words as soon as they reached her lips.
As a matter of principle, Qin Xu will not change it for others.
The reason why Xiao Lengyue is alive today is not because Qin Xu is greedy for her body.
It was just a fort at best.
She was left alive just to attract the destined male protagonist.
Once they are gathered together, it's time to close the net!
After getting dressed under Shangguan Huan'er's attendance, Qin Xu walked out of Shuixian Palace feeling refreshed.
As a result, as soon as he stepped out of the palace gate, he was frightened by the scene in front of him.
In front of Shuixian Palace, a large number of civil and military ministers were kneeling down.
"I'll go. I deliberately delayed my ascension to the throne because I didn't want to suffer the consequences of being an emperor. This is my first day without going to court, and you're here to block me?"
Qin Xu curled his lips, his expression revealing displeasure.
"I am so frightened that I have no choice but to take this step. I hope your majesty will forgive me!"
The civil and military officials explained their intention with fearful expressions on their faces.
They come here for two things.
The first is to persuade Qin Xu to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor as soon as possible.
After all, a country cannot be without its owner for a day, and Qin Xu needs to make decisions on all major matters in the court.
The second is to cry poverty.
Ever since Qin Xu rebelled and bloodbathed the court, the manpower in the court was running low.
What's more serious is that when they checked the treasury, they found that there were not many spiritual stones and silver coins left in the treasury.
They have all been ignored by Xiao Lengyue and his daughter in the past few years.
Especially after Xiao Lengyue ascended the throne, in order to welcome Chu Yang's arrival, he mobilized the whole country to build Chonghua Palace.
What's annoying is that as soon as the luxurious palace was built, it encountered divine punishment and was bombed inexplicably.
It can be said that all the losses were lost.
Now the dynasty is in dire straits.
If you want people, there will be no one, and if you want money, there will be no money.
They had no choice but to shamelessly come to Qin Xu.
Qin Xu was speechless after listening.
You haven't officially ascended the throne yet, and you're going to cause trouble for me?
Am I going to be an emperor, or am I going to be your father?
Fortunately, there is a system in place, and solving the immediate trouble is just a matter of fingers.
Qin Xu first manifested the top-level spiritual veins directly to the mountain behind the palace.
Just ask them to dig up as many spiritual stones as they need.
Then, he took out three summoning cards in the system space.
Now that eight of the ten great Yamas have left, the imperial capital is empty, and it is time to replenish his men.
Two three-stars and one five-star.
Qin Xu used them directly at the same time.
[Ding, the summoning card was used successfully and is being summoned...]
[Ding, summoning successful! 】
[Congratulations to the host for successfully summoning the capable ministers Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong to the Martial Emperor Realm! 】
[Congratulations to the host for successfully summoning the gods and demons of the human fairyland, Shen Gongbao! 】
For a moment, the sky above the palace was filled with wind and clouds.
The first person to be summoned was eight feet long, with a face like a crown of jade, wearing a turban on his head, a crane cloak, and a feather fan in his hand. He looked like a god.
This person is none other than Zhuge Liang.
"The humble minister Kong Ming pays his respects to the master!"
Following this, the second character was also summoned.
It's just that this man looks exactly opposite to Zhuge Kongming.
He has thick eyebrows and raised nose, dark face and short beard, crooked mouth and slanted eyes, and his face is ugly.
This person is none other than Pang Tong and Pang Shiyuan, who are known as Feng Chu.
"The humble minister Shi Yuan pays his respects to the master!"
Immediately afterwards, the last finale character also appeared.
"I'm a poor Taoist, Shen Gongbao, I'm here to pay my respects to my master!"
A loud shout.
Immediately, I saw a middle-aged man wearing a wide Taoist robe, riding a white-fronted demon tiger, holding a skull whisk in his hand, with a treacherous face, fairy light flowing from his body, and descending from the sky on white clouds.
"You'll hear the seal!"
"Hear the holy will!"
The three of them knelt down with their hands in hand.
"From now on, Zhuge Liang is appointed as the Prime Minister of the Left, Pang Tong as the Prime Minister of the Right, and Shen Gongbao as the Protector of the Country. The three of you must work together to command all officials and govern the Ziyang Dynasty!"
With the Crouching Dragon and Phoenix in hand, and an evil national master in hand, Qin Xu felt that this time he could safely be a hands-off shopkeeper.
As for the officials urging him to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor, Qin Xu's reply was to wait.
He had already decided the date for Qin Tianjian.
Ten days later!
That day is also the day when the destiny protagonist comes to earth!
