"Your Majesty is mighty! Your Majesty's martial arts skills are among the best among the elite warriors in the army! What's even more rare is that your Majesty has such a level without even going to the battlefield to hone his skills. It really puts to shame the warriors in the army who claim to be powerful. ....." When the emperor finished practicing, Shen Hao flattered him.
The emperor smiled and walked towards Shen Hao. Suddenly he thrust the spear in his hand forward and pointed it at Shen Hao's face.
Without murderous intent, without the blessing of true energy, even Shen Hao's true energy shield could not be broken by this level of stabbing. Even if it really stabbed into his body, he could still withstand it with the strength of his body. The gun was pierced an inch into the flesh and he could no longer move.
Therefore, Shen Hao still kept his posture of bowing and flattering, with no intention of dodge at all.
Sure enough, the sharp edge of the spear finally stopped half a foot in front of Shen Hao's door. This was the maximum distance that the emperor could send and receive freely, and it was barely enough to be cool.
"Your Majesty is so skilled in martial arts that I am ashamed of myself!" He flattered me again. It didn't cost any money anyway, and it seemed that the emperor was in a good mood today, so I wanted to play with him.
However, it is obvious that Shen Hao's identity and the flattery he flattered are not that suitable. At least it is not difficult to hear the exaggerated flattery in it, so the emperor was not photographed in a confused way.
He threw the spear in his hand to a chamberlain beside him, and then took the handkerchief handed to him to wipe his sweat. He glanced at Shen Hao, curled his lips and said, "You don't need to evaluate my spear skills. Although it's not showy, it's just mediocre. It's all about training your muscles. When it comes to talent, you, Master Shen, are the best." You are an incredible genius, you have an epiphany and you jump to two small realms in a row, I can't compare with you."
"I'm scared!" Shen Hao heard this and was about to kneel down on one knee, because he didn't know what the emperor's words meant, but it was better to be more cowardly.
However, the emperor did not continue this topic. He waved his hand to stop Shen Hao's "panic", then walked to the chair next to him and sat down, picked up the tea cup and took a few sips. He had heard a lot of flattery, and Shen Hao's flattery was only average, far from it. And he didn't agree to meet Shen Hao just to hear flattery.
"Tell me, how many of those noble families and Daxiu clan have you killed?"
Shen Hao also quickly replied: "Your Majesty, this raid on the aristocratic family was very successful. Thanks to the help of Fenghong Villa, our casualties were less than two hands. And according to the previous punishment intensity, a total of seven thousand rebels were killed. Three hundred and sixty-two people were captured, and 3,105 people were captured..."
However, the emperor frowned slightly, as if he was not very satisfied, and said, "Why are there so many people alive?"
Shen Hao also thought that the emperor was so murderous, so he could only explain: "Your Majesty, most of the more than 3,000 people who survived need to be exiled to the barbarian territory to dig for medicinal materials. With their pampered bodies, they cannot leave the barbarian territory. Half of them will die from illness and exhaustion in half a year, and the rest can only last two years at most, and in the end there will be no escape from death..."
The emperor did not wait for Shen Hao to finish his words, waved his hand and interrupted: "The dead enemies are the most reassuring enemies. These people are like fire and water to me. Only when they die and die cleanly can I feel at ease. I don't care What plans do you Xuanqing Guard and Right Prime Minister have? I just want these people to die as soon as possible, do you understand?"
"Understood, I will take care of it properly. Those who are exiled will definitely not live for more than a year. Those who are punished will also be taken care of and let them die in accidents or injuries. We will never let these people dirty His Majesty's eyes. .”
What else can be said? The emperor couldn't tolerate sand in his heart, so he, the person singled out by the emperor to do the dirty work, shouldn't he just have to kill them all?
However, although it tests the means, it is not too difficult. After all, exile and punishment are just for show. After a while, people will no longer pay attention to these once glorious families, and there will be room for maneuver.
Those who are exiled are easy to deal with. Although there are no longer big battles in the barbarian territory, there are still many sporadic skirmishes. Some are conflicts between barbarian stragglers and border troops, and some are conflicts within the barbarians themselves, with more of the latter. When these people are exiled to the barbarian territory, they will create a scene of "the remnants of the barbarians looting the medicine field station" and ensure that those people die cleanly.
What is a little more difficult to deal with are those aristocratic families who focus on punishment. According to the plan, most of the family property will be confiscated first, and then they will be forcibly moved to other places to let them start their lives again, which is equivalent to removing them from the aristocratic families.
But now even removal cannot reassure the emperor, and this has to be dealt with separately. Like a fire? Or a case of food poisoning? Or maybe enemies come to visit? Although these things are more difficult to deal with, they are still manageable. Let the people of the Blackwater Impermanence Department move around. As long as the news is over, no one will care about these unlucky guys who have lost power.
But having said that, Shen Hao finally realized one of the characteristics of the emperor this time: insecurity.
Most people will not do anything to kill everyone when they have an advantage. As long as their advantage remains unchanged, those who have been beaten by them will not be afraid. But the emperor clearly has a clear and sustained advantage, but he still likes to kill everyone. There is really no other explanation for this except "insecurity".
The emperor doesn't know what Shen Hao is thinking about. He just thinks that Shen Hao's knife is very useful. It takes care of face and takes care of Li Zi. As long as he gives the request, Shen Hao can complete it perfectly. So he didn't ask for details, nodded and said: "Very good! Make sure not to leave anyone alive."
In addition, your next step is to deal with the second-rate sects behind the Wang family. I heard from King Yongsheng that you sent a request to Fenghong Villa for transfer. Are you going to kill him as a warning this time? "
A smile appeared on the emperor's face when he said the words "Kill one to serve as a warning to hundreds", but Bing Shi's gentle smile turned into a sneer.
I don't know if it's an illusion, but Shen Hao feels that since Yang Shu became emperor, his words and deeds have changed a lot from when he was a prince. Especially his irritable and cruel temper is getting stronger and stronger, which makes him feel that Yang Shu Shu is developing towards the character of the late emperor Yang Jian.
"According to His Majesty's instructions, any sect that dares to disobey the rules will have their hands chopped off, their legs stretched out to chop off their feet, and their heads will be beheaded. The subordinates of those second-rate sects have already contacted the duty star officer of Fenghong Villa Elder Duan Jue has discussed it and is ready to destroy them all!"
Anyway, it was not the Black Flag Camp that was against those second-rate sects, so Shen Hao naturally said it without hesitation. Of course, judging from the fate of the previous noble families, it would be in line with the emperor's temper to kill them all.
"Fenghong Villa alone is not enough. Where is the warrant I gave you to act cheaply? Take it out."
Hearing this, Shen Hao quickly took out the "expensive" warrant that the emperor had given him before, which allowed him to mobilize a thousand imperial troops, and presented it to the emperor.
The emperor took the order, beckoned the servant to bring the pen and ink, added some content to the order, and then threw it to Shen Hao again: "I will give you the temporary coordination rights of 30,000 forbidden troops, and I will also give you the foreign affairs deacon of Fenghong Villa. One position, responsible for all affairs of the sect involved in this case!"
