"I heard that you saved a city guard who was poisoned last night?" The next morning, when the Supervisory Order entered the house, he asked Chu Liang with a smile.
"Actually, I don't have much confidence, but I just happened to catch it and I have to give it a try." Chu Liang replied.
"You did a good job." Jianguo Ling praised: "If someone dies in Jianguo Mansion, our reputation will inevitably be damaged."
They talk about us everywhere...
Chu Liang silently cursed, I didn't receive a penny of your salary.
Jiang Yuebai stood side by side with Chu Liang.
She had to report to the Supervisory Office about the Black Pine Ridge incident she had previously discovered. After all, she was still handling cases on behalf of the Supervisory Office in name.
"This kind of thing..." After listening to her story, Supervisor Guo Ling also looked gloomy. The fact that a big force was wiped out was not a small matter in any case. It has been a long time since such a bad thing happened in Kyushu.
If we were to count the last time, it should be the Jiang family’s destruction more than ten years ago. Of course, the Jiang family's power is far greater than that of Black Pine Ridge, and its level of terror is also far greater.
Thinking of this, the old man raised his eyes and glanced at Jiang Yuebai. He did not mention this issue, but instead said: "It is indeed complicated and confusing, and the hidden truth needs to be verified. Miss Jiang can capture the key points so quickly, which is enough to show her extraordinary talent. , do you have any intention to work in my supervisory government for a period of time in the future?"
Chu Liang smiled when he heard this.
This old man really never forgets to pull people in anytime and anywhere.
"It's better to wait until Chu Liang's matter comes to light." Jiang Yuebai responded lightly.
"It should be soon. After this incident, the Honghe Sect should also see that this case is not simple, and 80% of them will not blame him again." The Supervisor ordered: "In a few days, even if the investigation cannot be carried out, He can leave after the follow-up."
That's good.
Hearing this, Chu Liang said happily: "After listening to the teachings of the Supervisory Order these days, I would really be reluctant to let me leave."
"You can stay as long as you want after you finish participating in the Immortal Sect Conference on behalf of Shushan." Jian Guo ordered, "Yudu City is much more lively than your otherworldly Immortal Sects, and it is suitable for young people to hang out."
"Yes." Chu Liang glanced outside, "I heard it was very lively outside this morning. It's not a festival. I don't know what the noise is."
"Tomorrow is the day when General Donghai enters the capital of Yu to offer prisoners. The people in the city have been preparing to greet him early." The supervisor of the country said: "There will be a large court meeting in the harem later, and I will also go to it. Today's official documents from various places, you can Just handle it first and put it here until I come back to review it."
"..." Chu Liang smiled with a smile on his face, and said in his heart: "Okay."
"Don't worry." Jianguo Ling also said with a smile: "Your work these days will not be in vain. Here, I give this to you."
As he spoke, he raised his hand and cast out two rays of light.
Chu Liang and Jiang Yuebai each took it in their hands and found that they were two halves of jasper with the same shape. They had a warm luster and full of spirituality. They looked like magic weapons at first glance.
"This is it?" Chu Liang asked.
"This is called the Tongxin Jade. Even if the two people holding this jade are thousands of miles apart, they can transmit their thoughts through the space in this jade at any time." The Supervisor ordered: "Just give it to you two."
"Tongxin Jade..." Jiang Yuebai muttered the name, his eyes drooping slightly.
Chu Liang was very carefree and put Yu into his arms, while showing a warm and innocent smile, "This is really embarrassing."
…
After the matter was done, Jiang Yuebai set off to return.
After Chu Liang said goodbye to her, he continued to complete his tasks in the Jianguo Mansion, but he received benefits, so his work attitude was completely different.
Qi Yingxuan was surprised to find that Chu Liang's efficiency in doing things had already satisfied him, but he seemed to have only put in half of his effort! Now Chu Liang's efficiency was so fast that even the Supervisor, who was used to seeing geniuses, was extremely surprised.
"Haha." He couldn't help but laugh: "If you continue to train like this for a while, I'm afraid I won't have any problem handing over the position of supervising the country to you."
Chu Liang just smiled and replied: "That's another price."
And the reason why he worked with such enthusiasm was to finish the task at hand as soon as possible, and then he couldn't wait to pick up the Tongxin Jade.
When the spiritual consciousness penetrates into it, it is a rippling emerald green space.
The principle of this object is similar to that of the Soul-Absorbing Order he captured earlier, but it is more high-end, so he is naturally familiar with it. As soon as I thought about it, I saw the light and shadow of writing starting to appear in the space.
[Chu Liang]: "Are you here? Take a rest after landing. Don't be too hasty. It's important to take care of yourself."
[Jiang Yuebai]: "Here we are, busy. Let's talk later."
[Chu Liang]: "..."
Senior Sister Jiang was busy, so Chu Liang didn't want to disturb her any more, so she had no choice but to wander around the Jianguo Mansion for a while. It is inconvenient for him to walk out of the door now, but there is no one to watch him in the mansion, so it is naturally okay to look at the scene outside.
The area where the Jianguo Mansion is located is close to the Imperial City, and ordinary people are unlikely to get close to it. The long and wide street in front of the gate is mostly empty, except for the official carriages and horses during court meetings.
But today, there were countless pedestrians coming and going outside the door, all of them were busy arranging something. It should be what the Supervisor of the State had just said, preparing to welcome General Donghai to surrender his prisoners.
This can be regarded as a major event in the Yu Dynasty recently, and Chu Liang often heard them talk about it at the banquet in the past two days.
The situation in the East China Sea has always been complicated, and the prisoners sacrificed this time came from the Roupu Kingdom in the East China Sea.
Although the land of Kyushu is dominated by the Yu Dynasty, the human race is not just one country. There are thirty-six countries in the Western Region alone. After thousands of years of strife and war, there are still only a few more countries. There are countless island countries in the four seas of southeast, northwest and northwest, some of which are large enough to have a state.
As long as it is a human country, it will regard the Yu Dynasty as a superior country and pay tribute to the Yu Dynasty every year. If there was a natural or man-made disaster, the Yu Dynasty would also provide shelter to its vassal states.
So everything was fine.
The root cause of the turmoil in the East China Sea lies in the rise of Fuyao State.
Fuyao Country originally had only a few local people, and two thousand years ago they were still living a life of eating hair and drinking blood. However, this place has a warm climate, abundant water and soil, and abundant spiritual energy. Every time there is war and turmoil in Kyushu, a large number of people will move across the sea from Kyushu to take refuge there.
Over time, it merged with the local people and became its own world. More than a thousand years ago, the people of the sixteen islands united to plan the founding of the country, and naturally they were also prepared to pay tribute to the former dynasty at that time.
The largest of the sixteen islands in the Fuyao Kingdom is comparable to a state. The combination of the islands is even more vast, and it will become the largest human country after the previous dynasty. Therefore, the previous dynasty was quite wary of this and did not allow the islands to unite to establish a country. It only allowed the islands to disperse and establish a country.
This was inconsistent with the demands of the islands at that time. After decades of operation, they finally found the most powerful backer for themselves.
Penglai.
Although the Immortal Sect is closely connected with the Kyushu Dynasty, the Immortal Sect supports the human race, not just that big dynasty. Even in order to prevent the imperial power of the dynasty from becoming too powerful, the immortal sects with spare power will specifically support some small countries.
For example, the Heavenly King Sect, Mist Hidden Immortal Mountain, Endless Sword Sect among the Nine Heavens Immortal Sect, and the Night Sword Sect among the Ten Lands... all have their own countries with extremely close relations behind them.
After all, the respect these small countries can give is something that a powerful dynasty cannot give.
The Fuyao Islands promised to establish the Penglai Sect as the state religion, and provide a series of conditions such as all resources and talents being available to the Penglai Sect at any time. It can be said that they completely regard Penglai's rules as their own.
But as they wished, such a pious attitude gained Penglai's strong support, and ultimately the establishment of the island nation was successful.
And for thousands of years since then, both parties have still achieved "a loving father and a filial son."
At that time, Penglai did not have the status of the No. 1 Immortal Sect today, and Fuyao Kingdom was just a newborn calf. After that, both sides became more and more powerful and complemented each other.
Today, Penglai Shangzong has been the number one immortal sect for many years, and the Fuyao Kingdom dominates the East China Sea and has long been the king and hegemon in this area. It's just that it still paid tribute to the Yu Dynasty, and this has not changed.
But Fuyao Guoming's lack of resistance on the surface does not mean that he has not taken other actions.
Just a dozen years ago, the Roupu Kingdom in the East China Sea announced that it would no longer pay tribute to the Yu Dynasty and would instead regard the Fuyao Kingdom as its superior state.
As a small island in the East China Sea, it would be an insult to say that the country is a small country.
As for the few fish it paid tribute to every year, Yu Chao really looked down upon it. But with such a bad start, what should we do if neighboring subordinate countries follow suit in the future?
So the imperial court sent a powerful person from the seventh realm as an envoy to question him, saying that he was an envoy... But in a small place like Roupu Kingdom, if the question failed, the powerful person might take off his clothes and... The words "General Zhengdong" inside will be revealed, transforming into a crusade army.
It is not difficult for one person to destroy a country.
But after he arrived there, Roupuguo's attitude was also very sincere. I am separated from the land of Kyushu by a vast ocean, and only a short boat ride away from Fuyao Country. I am completely dependent on others to live my life.
If you don't listen to Fuyao Country, what else can you do?
The words were more than just implicit expressions, everything was what Fuyao Kingdom meant.
The Yu Dynasty had already expected this, but the Fuyao Kingdom was not as easy to handle as the Roupu Kingdom. After all, the Fuyao Kingdom had strong soldiers and the support of Penglai, so it was not that easy to win.
As for the soft servant country...
Even if we destroy it and send troops to occupy it, hunting those two fish every year will not be enough for military expenses.
The matter of the Roufu Kingdom will be put on hold for the time being.
Of course, the struggle between the Yu Dynasty and the Fuyao Kingdom in the East China Sea also escalated and has never stopped to this day.
Until some time ago, the news of the demon god's return spread throughout the world. People in the border areas of the Western Regions moved inward one after another, and even many citizens of small countries in the Western Regions fled to the Yu Dynasty for refuge. Chaos also began to arise within the Yu Dynasty, with frequent secret crimes and resentment in the country boiling for a while.
At times like this, nothing could divert these grievances and boost public sentiment better than a foreign war.
At this moment, the only small island in the world that did not pay tribute to the Yu Dynasty, the Roupu Kingdom, naturally came into the court's sight... Jie Jie Jie's laughter rang out in the court...
When the Roupu Kingdom ceased to be a vassal more than ten years ago, almost no one in the Yu Dynasty knew about this. After all, the impact this had on the life of the Yu Dynasty was that one day there was a fish missing from the table in the homes of the princes and dignitaries. Why would anyone worry about this?
However, with the court's deliberate publicity, this incident became known to everyone within a few days, as if it had just happened. The incident in the Roupu Kingdom also rose to the level where the majesty of the Yu Dynasty was challenged.
Dare the small and small Guoan do this?
With the crowd agitated, His Majesty the Emperor waved his hand and appointed General Wu Anmin as the General of the East China Sea. He led 30,000 elite soldiers, ten buildings and ships, and several powerful people, and drove to the Roupu Kingdom in a mighty manner.
Although the Roupu Kingdom is small, its people are very tough.
When I came up, I surrendered ruthlessly. What can you do to me?
Even before your troops arrived, I had already surrendered.
When General Donghai led the army that filled the sky and the sea to approach the border, he saw a large number of Roufu citizens kneeling on the beach at the seaside under the leadership of the monarch. Their belongings at home had been packed away, and everyone carried a small burden on their backs.
He even placed a small amount of gold, silver, jewelry and other belongings beside him as a military expense for the army. There is no need to grab it, the valuables are all here.
Being sensible makes people feel distressed.
Wu Anmin doesn't even have the heart to accept these military expenses. How much money can you make by selling some fish when you are so tanned all year round? You can figure it out yourself.
But you all have to come with me.
The Yu Dynasty needs a prisoner gift to boost people's hearts, so I'd like to trouble you all.
