"Lord, the entire Cang Yan Realm is in chaos now." Zhou Kunshan's excited mouth almost touched his ears.
"The rebel army in the southern state defeated the 40,000 imperial troops who attacked them. At this time, their reputation was at its peak. It is said that they were already preparing to attack other towns."
"The six demon kings in the northern state have defeated the imperial army one after another, and their scale is getting bigger and bigger."
"The Qingshan Army of the Western Zhou Dynasty has captured four cities and is becoming more powerful."
"Are we also..."
Seeing the expectant look on his face, Zheng Yi shook his head calmly: "It's not the time yet."
"Although these rebels seem to be in full swing, in fact they have not really established a foothold yet."
"So what if we capture a few cities? For the Zhao family, it's just a superficial wound. These cities are not even one or two hundred of the four states in the world."
"Not to mention the Zhao family in Zhongzhou, even the princes in Sifangzhou, they probably don't mean anything serious."
Feng Haitao said coldly: "My lord, I think the strength of those princes is nothing more than this. Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to see those rebels getting bigger and have nothing to do."
"They..." Zheng Yi sighed. There are some things that you can't understand if you don't sit in that position.
For those princes, the rebellion was difficult, but its impact on them was not as great as imagined.
Anyway, if it were him, he would face more and more frequent rebellions.
You can first wait for those rebels to expand to a certain size, and then catch them all in one fell swoop.
In this case, not only once and for all, it can also completely defeat the rebellious will of these people, and it will be able to calm down for a while.
Of course, the more important reason why Zheng Yi has not moved is that the Ten Thousand Immortals Sect is developing better and better.
The lives of the people in Cangyan Realm were really hard. As long as you give them some small favors, you can make them follow you with all your heart.
Now, it doesn’t even require many tangible benefits.
Just the spiritual comfort can bring a lot of hope to those people.
"Lord, as you said, the imperial court's suppression has made our Ten Thousand Immortals Sect develop faster." Zhou Ming said with a red face.
Zheng Yi told him before that after the court suppressed and went underground, it would be more beneficial to the Ten Thousand Immortals Sect.
Zhou Mingqing still didn't quite believe it.
After all, if you can't preach openly, how can you go faster than before?
However, the result is that the scale of the Ten Thousand Immortals Sect has more than tripled since it was banned by the imperial court.
After thinking for more than half a month, Zhou Ming finally figured out what this was for.
Although the scale of their Ten Thousand Immortals Sect expanded rapidly in the past, it also required them to preach diligently.
There are many people who cannot truly come into contact with their Ten Thousand Immortals Sect.
However, the Dog Court explicitly prohibited it, and in fact, it was quite strict in telling the majority of the people who did not know about the Ten Thousand Immortals Sect and that an organization like them existed.
Although through this channel, people who know about their Ten Thousand Immortals Sect generally have no favorable impressions of the Ten Thousand Immortals Sect.
However, as long as those truly poor people understand a little bit about the teachings of the Ten Thousand Immortals Sect, their attitudes will immediately change.
More importantly, due to the imperial court's suppression, the members of the Ten Thousand Immortals Sect became particularly united in the process of fighting against the imperial court.
"Hasn't the candidate for Dragon Subduing Arhat been selected yet?" Zheng Yi had a headache.
Perhaps everyone is particularly sensitive to the words Jianglong.
Except for the dragon-subduing Arhat selected by Zheng Yi at the beginning, no suitable candidate has been selected, and everyone cannot be satisfied.
"My subordinates are not doing their job well, so I ask my lord to punish me. Although two or three people are more suitable, I still feel that my reputation is lacking."
"Jiang Long is the head of the One Hundred and Eight Arhats. The position cannot remain empty. He must be selected within half a month at the latest."
"If there is really no suitable one, you can arrange it yourself. Although it cannot fully match the immortal power, it can still form combat effectiveness in a short period of time."
Zhou Ming's eyes lit up: "Lord, could it be said that you..."
Zheng Yi said expressionlessly: "Now is not the time, but we must prepare according to the most urgent situation."
"My subordinates understand!"
Just after dealing with Zhou Ming's problem, Zhao Tianming ran in in a panic: "No! No, another special commissioner has been sent from above."
Hearing his words, Zheng Yi sighed helplessly: "Did you bring troops here?"
Zhao Tianming nodded subconsciously: "Yes!"
Then he realized something was wrong and asked in shock: "How do you know? I don't seem to have told you. Could it be that you already knew the news from other channels?"
Zheng Yi shook his head slowly: "I have never paid attention to this matter. Of course, I just heard what you said."
"Then how do you know that the special commissioner this time came with troops?"
"Nonsense." Zheng Yi was helpless. Zhao Tianming seemed to be becoming more and more useless since he seized power.
Such a simple question would have been impossible for him to think of before.
If others couldn't bring him here, how could Zhao Tianming be so panicked.
Moreover, it has been so long since the young masters of the Zhao family disappeared.
However, there has been no progress in the investigation of this matter.
Under this situation, those in the Zhao family must be almost impatient.
If there is no result, no one responsible for handling this matter will have a good result.
So whether it's true or not, they can't come back empty-handed this time.
Now that the army has arrived at the mine, the choice of these people is self-evident.
To judge others by oneself, if it were Zheng Yi who handled this matter, he would also regard the mine as his first target.
After all, in such a large mine, it is easiest to hide corpses.
"Shangxian, what should we do now? We can't just wait to die, right?"
Zheng Yi sighed helplessly: "Although it is important to keep a low profile and bide your time, it is a pity that conditions do not allow it."
"So, are we really going to rebel?" Zhao Tianming asked nervously.
A strange smile appeared on Zheng Yi's face: "Rebellion is not necessary, but it is not impossible that the imperial army may be wiped out by rebels who really want to revolt. Are you right?"
< br>
Zhao Tianming was inexplicably relieved, even though he was now completely on the pirate ship.
However, if he was really asked to rebel with these rebels, he would still be somewhat resistant.
After all, he was once a good young man who vowed to serve the imperial court.
"It's good that the Immortal has already prepared. I know that no matter what happens, nothing will be difficult for you." Zhao Tianming rubbed his hands and boasted awkwardly.
"Do you know?" Zheng Yi looked at the sky outside the window, seeming to be talking to Zhao Tianming, and also seemed to be talking to himself.
"You are not the only smart person in this world. Hiding one's clumsiness is indeed a very useful method, but sometimes hiding one's clumsiness too much may have the opposite effect." With a snap, Zhao Tianming's back was already covered with sweat. Soaked.
As Zheng Yi said, he is indeed hiding his clumsiness now.
He didn't want to join the gangsters like Zheng Yi, but Zhao Tianming couldn't find a way to clean himself up.
After all, as long as Zheng Yi and others rebelled, it would be impossible for him, the mine owner, to get away with it.
Even though Zhao Tianming was completely disappointed with the Zhao family, he didn't want to really go to hell with Zheng Yi and the others.
After thinking about it, Zhao Tianming decided to hide his clumsiness. As long as he behaves like a waste, at least Zheng Yi will not reuse him.
But Zhao Tianming never expected that he would be exposed so easily.
Just by looking at the other person's expression, Zheng Yi could guess what Zhao Tianming was thinking.
I have to say that these guys who cultivate the world of immortality are really naive and a bit cute sometimes.
With such a clumsy method, you actually thought you could hide it from him?
Check out the 16-9 book bar to see the correct version!
The entire Cangyan Realm belongs to the Zhao family. How could a person like Zhao Tianming, who was not a slave but was given the Zhao family name, be a worthless waste?
Not to mention that Zheng Yi currently has a shortage of people with experience in handling government affairs, and it is impossible to let go of this talented person.
Even if Zhao Tianming is not an outstanding talent, Zheng Yi will make the best use of him and use him to death.
Still hiding your clumsiness?
This guy is really worried about this.
"I have always felt that you are a talented person. Don't squander your talents in those messy places in the future."
"After all, we need talents, not useless waste."
"How would you say that if we were in the Zhao family, those useless people would be dealt with?"
Zheng Yi had given Zhao Tianming face by not mentioning him at all.
But Zhao Tianming felt that he was covered in cold sweat.
Almost all the clothes on his body were soaked.
"What the Immortal said is that it is better to be a useful person. Ha...haha!"
He didn't even know how terrifying his current smile was.
But then, Zhao Tianming heard another piece of news that made him heartbroken.
Zheng Yi clicked on an envelope on the table in his study: "This is a letter written by your father to you."
"The efficiency of today's official post stations is getting worse and worse. Not only is the delivery speed very slow, but the delivered letters are often lost."
"Miner Zhao is very kind to our Ten Thousand Immortals Sect, so we tried to find a way to take over this job."
"From now on, we can completely rely on the channels of our Ten Thousand Immortals Sect for correspondence at home."
"If anything happens in the future, we in the Ten Thousand Immortals Sect will also work hard to protect the safety of your family."
Zhao Tianming, who was still a little scared at first, suddenly turned his eyes and said, "I don't quite understand what the Immortal meant."
He couldn't understand what the other party meant, but Zhao Tianming knew very well that this was Hong Guoguo's threat.
The other party can easily get the family letter written by his mother, so naturally he can also...
Zheng Yi waved his hand: "I said, this is protection. As long as no one threatens their lives, they will not act rashly no matter what happens."
"This is my promise to you."
Zhao Tianming didn't know if he could trust the other party.
After all, no matter which way you look at it, this is basically threatening him with the lives of his family.
However, according to Zhao Tianming's understanding of Zheng Yi, this guy is indeed not such a person.
If the other party really wants to control himself, there are countless ways, and there is no need to threaten his family.
"I know you don't believe it." The corners of Zheng Yi's mouth turned up slightly: "If you insist and treat this as a threat, it doesn't matter."
"After all, the results are exactly the same."
Zheng Yi did not deceive Zhao Tianming, and his words were indeed not a threat.
Of course, it can’t be said that it doesn’t mean this at all. Otherwise, Zheng Yi would not have to tell this matter.
However, even if Zhao Tianming was not threatened, or even openly confronted them, Zheng Yi would not take action against Zhao Tianming's family.
It's not because of the Holy Mother's heart, it's just that Zheng Yi understands it clearly.
Shady means cannot be completely eliminated, but in many cases, being upright is more effective.
After sending Zhao Tianming away, Zheng Yi summoned all his subordinates.
He announced to them that the special commissioner was about to arrive and would bring a large number of troops with him.
"Lord, these guys are obviously coming for us, right?" Zhou Kunshan said immediately: "Rather than wait for them to take action, we might as well strike first."
"Destroy them directly, and then start an uprising directly. I still don't believe that the incompetent dog court can really fight against our rebels."
Feng Haitao also agreed: "My lord, although the timing is still wrong, we have no other choice now, right?"
Zhou Ming, however, objected: "How about we think of other ways to deal with it first?"
"Those people just want the credit. Can't we just give them the credit?"
"Anyway, for them, as long as they have a reason to cross paths. As for who the murderer is, I don't think they care."
Zhou Kunshan immediately objected: "How is this possible? Those Zhao family members are not fools. If we really do this, they will definitely know immediately that this matter has something to do with us."
Feng Haitao also didn't understand and said: "Uncle Zhou, haven't you always hoped to avenge those believers who were killed by the dog court? Now is the best opportunity."
Zhou Ming explained: "That's true, but compared to overthrowing the Dog Court, revenge is not a matter of urgency."
"If we can continue to maintain the status quo for a year... No! As long as we can maintain it for eight or nine months, our Ten Thousand Immortals Sect's congregation in Dongfang State can more than double."
"I can even guarantee that at least half of the people in the entire Dongfang State will become members of our Ten Thousand Immortals Sect."
"At that time, it will be easy to take revenge on the dog court."
Zheng Yi nodded slightly, Zhou Ming was becoming more and more aware of the overall situation.
Maybe it's because as a leader, your horizons naturally become higher and higher.
On the other hand, Zhou Kunshan and Feng Haitao's eyes were not as bright as before.
But it's not their fault, after all, all their energy is spent on training and managing the mine.
I haven't had the opportunity to truly lead and gain effective experience. (End of chapter)
