"Big...bold!"
The envoy in front of him immediately became furious, and the two Forbidden Palace envoys behind him couldn't help but step forward, their eyes filled with anger.
"A warlord and ruffian from a mere fortress city dares to speak wildly and covet the throne of Daxia!"
He raised his hand and pointed at Chen Jingshan who was sitting in the main seat.
The envoy in brocade uniform gritted his teeth and shouted loudly: "Do you know, this is an unforgivable crime of treason and attempted rebellion!"
The whole hall suddenly became quiet.
The night watchmen standing on both sides were almost all local national night watchmen from "Fengdu".
They only have "Fengdu" and the Chen family in their hearts, and have no sense of belonging to the so-called Xuanyuan royal family.
"Haha, you are treasonous and trying to rebel?"
He raised his eyebrows lightly.
Chen Jingshan smiled coldly, raised his head and said in a deep voice: "Back then, the Xuanyuan clan made an agreement with our ancestors, and the princes of the eleven fortress cities shared the mountains and rivers of the world with them, and this was how the Great Xia Empire prospered. "
He pondered for a moment.
Chen Jingshan's eyes were fierce and he said with contempt: "Otherwise, how could the Xuanyuan clan have made Daxia one of the five major human civilizations by himself? It's a good thing now that the little emperor has just ascended the throne and the dragon throne has not been covered yet. It's so hot that I want to kill the donkey..."
"In my opinion, it is clear that he, Xuanyuan Hong, betrayed his faith first and forgot his ancestors and betrayed his ancestral lineage later!"
The unabashed rebuke lingered in the hall for a long time.
The Daxia royal family wanted to take back the military and political power of the fortress city, which had violated Chen Jingshan's bottom line.
In addition, he was used to being arrogant and domineering in "Fengdu", so he was never prepared to compromise.
"you......"
He was stunned speechless on the spot.
The envoy in front of him was furious, but what he said was well-founded. For a moment, he didn't know how to refute it. In desperation, he had no choice but to point at Chen Jingshan, who was sitting upright on the throne, and cursed loudly: "Rebellious ministers and traitors have a heart to be punished." !”
"Hahahaha~~~"
He threw back his head and let out a loud laugh.
Chen Jingshan suddenly slapped the case and said with profound meaning: "The thief is indeed a thief, but whether he can break my heart is another matter!"
In an instant.
The national night watchmen in the hall moved closer to the envoy and his men, their expressions gloomy and full of inexplicable murderous intent.
"You, you..."
Realized something was wrong.
The embassy kept retreating under the protection of the two Forbidden Palace envoys, but when it turned back, it was discovered that the door behind it had already been held by several night watchmen from Fengdu.
"This is all because of you forcing me to do this!"
He waved his hand fiercely.
Chen Jingshan's eyes were cold and he flicked his fingertips towards the three of them from afar.
Bang~~
In the air, a projectile made of yellow sand broke through the air. After a fleeting moment, it hit the envoy's forehead accurately.
A wisp of blood mist suddenly rose in the void.
Maintaining a shocked expression, the envoy in front of him had a bloody hole between his eyebrows.
He lost his life on his back and fell hard to the ground.
He looked coldly at the two remaining Forbidden Palace envoys.
Chen Jingshan raised his chin and ordered with a stern expression: "Take action, kill them all, leave no one behind!"
boom--
Dozens of night watchmen summoned armed monsters at the same time. Under the concentrated fire attack, the remaining two Forbidden Palace envoys were unable to defeat four hands with their fists. However, in the blink of an eye, they were suppressed and killed on the spot.
In the air, the strong smell of blood suddenly spread.
The crowd gradually dispersed, and the three corpses on the ground were clearly visible, with red blood almost splattered all over the ground.
Done all this.
Chen Jingshan took a long breath, slowly sat back down, took out a box of cigarettes from his arms, and calmly lit a fire for himself.
The air was filled with smoke and gloom as well as a heavy heart.
As a powerful figure who has been in the power field all year round, he knows it very well.
From this moment on, the conflict between Fengdu and the Daxia royal family could no longer be reconciled or ended happily.
The two sides have completely broken their skin, and they can only fight to the death on the battlefield in the future.
next moment--
The sound of rapid footsteps suddenly came from outside the corridor at the door.
Also affiliated to "Fengdu", the troops from the city lord's palace suddenly arrived at the meeting hall of the War Preparedness Department.
The front of the line.
An aging old man was sitting in a wheelchair, his expression solemn and slightly worried.
He is none other than Yan Ye, the old city lord of "Fengdu".
as expected.
When the old Yan Ye was pushed into the hall, he almost fainted on the spot when he saw the envoy from the imperial city dying.
"Everyone go out and wait outside the door..."
Secretly gritting his teeth.
Veins were pulsing on his wrinkled face. Yan Ye slapped the armrest of the wheelchair hard and said in a deep voice: "Also, I would like to remind you that nothing about what happened today should be leaked. Otherwise, not only your lives will be at risk." There is no guarantee that no one, including the family members behind you, will ever leave Fengdu alive!"
The night watchmen around him were startled for a moment, then quickly nodded in agreement and exited the meeting hall without saying a word.
It doesn't take a while.
In the empty hall, only the still angry City Master Yan and Chen Jingshan, who was smoking silently on the main seat, were left.
"You, what do you want me to say about you..."
He shook his head silently.
The wily Yan Ye clenched the wheelchair with both hands and shouted in a deep voice: "Confused, just extremely confused!"
in silence.
Chen Jingshan, who was nearly sixty years old, was smoking cigarettes by himself. In front of Yan Ye, he was like a child who had done something wrong, and he did not dare to be too presumptuous.
"It's just an edict, why are you so impulsive?!"
Look at the three cold corpses on the ground.
Yan Ye was even more angry. He was taking a nap in the city lord's palace. When he received a secret message saying that the envoy from the imperial city had skipped him and took the initiative to find Chen Jingshan to recruit him, he immediately felt that something big was going on. wonderful.
He was not afraid that Chen Jingshan would defect at the last moment, but what he was afraid of was that the old guy was too violent and would hurt the lives of these messengers, causing things to develop in an extreme direction and become uncontrollable.
So he immediately rushed to the combat readiness department without stopping, but to his surprise, it was still a step too late.
"A scholar may be killed, but not humiliated."
Exhales a plume of smoke.
Chen Jingshan closed his eyes and still went his own way: "The stupid little emperor is really bullying others. He wants my Chen family to hand over hundreds of years of foundation. If there is no blood, wouldn't it mean that I, Chen Jingshan, are afraid of them?" .”
Arrogant and domineering, covering the sky with one hand.
As the most prosperous family in Fengdu City, Chen Jingshan has always been unscrupulous.
This also made him develop the habit of being arrogant, and he simply couldn't stand being coerced.
"madness--!"
I was instantly furious.
Yan Ye in the wheelchair almost vomited blood, slapped the armrest hard, and scolded him in person.
"Don't I know what Xuanyuan Hong wants to do? It's nothing more than a delusional attempt to take back the power and territory in the hands of the major princes and city lords, and engage in the same old trick of centralized power and dictatorship!"
Staring at Chen Jingshan with angry eyes.
The old Yan Ye shook his head and continued: "Not only do I know it, but all the princes and city lords in the Great Xia Empire also know it very well, but who else is as stupid as you to openly massacre the envoys of the imperial city! ?”
"They deserve to die, especially the little emperor." Chen Jingshan responded.
"That's right..."
He slapped the armrest of the wheelchair sharply.
Yan Ye's eyes were blazing, and he gritted his teeth and growled: "Not now, and it shouldn't be you who takes action!"
At a time when the current situation is turbulent, the eleven fortress cities are still waiting to see each other's attitude.
Everyone, including the Imperial City, knew that a war was inevitable.
But the question is, who can be invincible in this change and who can gain greater benefits from it.
As the saying goes, shoot the first bird!
None of these scheming and powerful people are willing to fire the first shot and become fools who make wedding dresses for others.
Facts have proved that knowingly committing a crime and pretending to be confused are completely different things.
"If you don't take action, you have already taken action."
After calming down completely, I realized that I had made a big mistake.
Chen Jingshan casually put out the cigarette butt and said with a wave of his hand: "I killed him. The worst I can do is to pay for my life. It has nothing to do with Fengdu!"
He frowned.
Faced with such angry words, Yan Ye, who was already over eighty years old, didn't bother to vent his anger at all.
said with no exaggeration.
He, Chen Jingshan, is now the mainstay of "Fengdu", and the Yan and Chen families have been married to each other for nearly a hundred years. They have long been like grasshoppers tied on a rope.
Even if he were to risk his life, the Xuanyuan royal family would not accept it easily.
Sending imperial envoys to major fortress cities to announce edicts was originally a simple test.
To say something unpleasant——
Xuanyuan Hong hoped that no one would kill these envoys in anger. In this way, the young emperor would have enough reasons to exclude dissidents in the court and forcefully implement the reform policy of withdrawing from the vassal state.
"We must find a way to survive this crisis."
His gaze is profound.
Yan Ye sat in the wheelchair, pondered for a long time, and said: "Although I feel sorry for the friendly countries, for the current plan, we can only divert this muddy water to Longdu, and at least divert the attention of the Xuanyuan royal family. force."
