At this moment, the Han Palace.
Zhu Gaojiu picked up the teacup on the table, looked at Zhu Gaosui aside, frowned slightly and said:
"Third brother, recently officials from all over the Ming Dynasty have reported to the court, saying that disappearances are very common recently."
"Have you ever heard of Hongsavady?"
Zhu Gaosui was startled, then smiled and said:
"Second brother, why are you telling me this? Isn't it normal for people to disappear?"
"It really has nothing to do with you?"
Zhu Gaoxu frowned.
"No, Beizhen Fusi is busy enough. How can I, the majestic King of Zhao, do that?"
Zhu Gaosui was submissive to Zhu Gaoxu on the surface, but secretly he always had his own little plans.
Zhu Gaoxu naturally knew this.
He raised his mouth and smiled at Zhu Gaosui and said: "Haha, the Hongshawadi incident has been a big deal recently. Even the King of Yunnan sent troops to suppress it many times, but all failed, which hurt the dignity of the Ming Dynasty!"
"Now the Ministry of War is discussing the strategy to encircle and suppress Hongsavady, and may send this king to encircle and suppress it. Tell the truth to my second brother, is it you who is hiding behind the scenes?"
"If it were you, as soon as my king's heavenly army arrives, all this formality will be over. If it weren't for you, all the powerful men in our Han Palace would be the King of Hell, and I would have to give him a beard!" Zhu Gaoxu's face gradually turned cold.
Zhu Gaojiu trembled. He knew that if Zhu Gaojiu could say this, he must have sufficient evidence to prove that he was the person behind the scenes.
If he didn't admit it, and with the temper of the King of Han, he would lead an army to do it, the foundation of his business in Hongsawadi might be overturned overnight.
"Second brother, it's not that the younger brother didn't tell you, but the younger brother wants to build a powerful force independent of the imperial court, and then slowly develop it..."
Seeing that Zhu Gaoxu had seen through him, Zhu Gaosui quickly explained.
"Independent of the imperial court? Also independent of the Han Palace!" Zhu Gaoxu suddenly stood up and said coldly.
Zhu Gaosui was startled and said quickly: "Second brother, you and I are brothers from the same mother-in-law. How come you don't even believe me!"
"Stop talking nonsense, what's going on over there in Hongshawadi?" Zhu Gaoxu asked.
"Last year, I got acquainted with the leader of the Blood Cult, Xue Linglong. This sect has a secret method that can devour human blood to increase the cultivation level of its followers. In less than a year, they recruited 10,000 followers and passed the exam. The secret method of the sect has promoted the cultivation level of these sect members from zero to the middle stage of martial arts."
"oh?"
Zhu Gaoxu was slightly startled and asked: "Since you are cultivating by swallowing human blood, why not take blood from Hongsawadi or some surrounding weak countries? Why do you have to force the powerful Ming Dynasty?"
"I don't want to reach out to the Ming Dynasty, but this secret method of taking blood is very special. The practitioner must use the blood of the same race to be effective."
"Most of the members of the Blood Sect are Hongsawadi people. Since I want to support the Blood Sect, I naturally want to increase the number of Han people in the sect."
"Now, there are 10,000 members of the Blood Sect from Hongsawadi and the southeastern countries, and the remaining 50,000 are all soldiers under my command!"
"These people were only added this year!"
In order to prevent Zhu Gaojiu from sending troops to conquer, Zhu Gaosui had to tell him the truth about the situation there.
After hearing this, Zhu Gaoxu was suddenly shocked, "Good guy, there are 50,000 people. No wonder the population disappearance in various parts of the Ming Dynasty is very serious!"
The blood sect's secret method is very strict in refining blood essence. Generally, a person can only condense one pound of blood essence. The rest is waste blood and cannot be used for practice.
Each of these 50,000 people needs one pound of blood essence for seven days to practice.
From this it can be inferred that there was an urgent need to send fifty thousand people to the slaughterhouse every seven days.
Moreover, according to the speed of entering the middle stage of martial arts from scratch in one year, this growth rate is already quite terrifying.
If they are allowed to develop for a few years, then the Han Palace will be unable to do anything to them.
These 50,000 people were all soldiers under the command of King Zhao, so they naturally listened to King Zhao.
According to this ratio of numbers, the blood sect in the future will definitely be controlled by King Zhao.
Zhu Gaoxu shuddered when he thought of this. His third brother's ambition was really terrifying.
"The king of Hongsawadi can not suppress it, and can even provide shelter." Zhu Gaoxu glanced at Zhu Gaosui and said.
Upon hearing this, Zhu Gaosui was immediately overjoyed and said, "Thank you, second brother. With the protection of second brother, the Blood Sect will grow rapidly."
"but……"
Speaking of this, Zhu Gaoxu narrowed his eyes, "You must remove 25,000 people from the Blood Cult, and I will send 25,000 people from my subordinates to join the Blood Cult. After all, brothers have to settle accounts!"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Gaosui felt like he was mourning for his heir.
If the Han Palace sends someone in, then the leader of the Blood Cult will not be him, but the Han King!
"What? Not willing?" Zhu Gaoxu sneered.
Although Zhu Gaojiu was unwilling, he understood Zhu Gaojiu's character. If he did not agree, Zhu Gaojiu would definitely send troops to attack the Blood Cult.
By then, all his efforts will be in vain.
"How could it be? Only when the second brother's people join the Blood Cult, the Blood Cult's status will be more stable."
Zhu Gaosui said with a smile.
"Okay, let us brothers work together to create a great cause!"
Zhu Gaoxu couldn't help but said excitedly.
Judging from Zhu Gaosui's narrative, this blood sect has a bright future.
If he is cultivated, he will definitely become an indestructible sword in Zhu Gaoxu's hands one day!
"Your Majesty..."
At this moment, a blue-robed eunuch stepped into the lobby.
Seeing the eunuch, Zhu Gaoxu frowned and asked, "Eunuch Xu, how was the situation in the emperor's palace last night?"
After hearing the news that the emperor favored the queen, Zhu Gaoxu had already arranged an informant outside the emperor's palace.
"Your Majesty, your Majesty has not moved for three years, and has only moved for three years. Last night, your Majesty almost played with the queen to death."
"That voice is so shameless that I have no shame to say it." Eunuch Xu looked at Zhu Gaoxu and said with an embarrassed look on his face.
Upon hearing this, Zhu Gaoxu's face suddenly darkened and he said angrily: "Impossible. The Dog Emperor is obviously a girl, how can he have the ability to have sex with her?"
"Your Majesty, what I said is true."
"Haha, you want to hide it, do you think you can deceive me by acting with the queen?" Zhu Gaoxu narrowed his eyes and said coldly.
"My lord, what should we do next?" Eunuch Xu asked.
"Explore again..."
Zhu Gaoxu said coldly.
"No." After hearing this, Eunuch Xu slowly left the hall.
At this moment, Zhu Gaojiu raised his eyes and glanced at Zhu Gaoxu, and said: "Second brother, why are you still trying to find out her gender? When the blood sect grows up, we can take this country by force!"
"You know nothing. Even if you want to rebel, you must do it under the premise that the people of the world and the civil and military officials of the DPRK and China can understand it!"
"If you seize a country by force, there will only be more and more problems later!"
After being scolded by Zhu Gaoxu, Zhu Gaosui quickly said: "Thank you second brother for teaching me. My younger brother has learned the lesson."
