Chapter 87 Becoming the Emperor
"Sure enough... spiritual roots!"
he thought excitedly.
The Yin Yang Treasure Mirror can indeed allow him to obtain spiritual roots.
He has obtained all the water and earth spiritual roots that Cui Xiabing carries.
Not only that, but also mana.
At this moment, he could clearly feel a cold thread running around in his body, eventually reaching his Dantian and circling quietly.
His heart moved, and he saw a space that was extremely dark, but with several cloud-like mist hanging in it.
If you look closely, it looks like colorful clouds and streamers.
Roughly counting, there are 12.
This is mana.
Transformed by spiritual energy, it is also an important symbol of a cultivator!
From this moment on, he is also a cultivator.
Among these mana clouds, there are actually other different clouds, which are gradually being absorbed by these twelve mana threads, strengthening them.
These are internal forces.
The internal power cultivated through intensive martial arts such as "Hundred Battles of Bloody Sword" and "White Lotus Reincarnation Magic Art" are gradually being absorbed by these twelve magic powers.
Although his internal strength is strong, it is far inferior to his magical power.
Not long after, his first-level internal energy disappeared completely, and was all absorbed by these twelve magical powers.
However, it is a pity that Cui Xiabing's "Plain Girl Yin Sha Gong" was not inherited by him. Instead, it was converted into 10 points of mana.
"My physique is different, so I can't practice "Su Nu Yin Sha Gong"?"
"And the internal energy gained through dual cultivation before was actually absorbed by the aura generated by the "Su Nu Yin Sha Gong"?"
"This... is really magical!"
With a thought in his mind, lines of writing appeared again on the Yin Yang Treasure Mirror.
【Lord: Zheng Yi】
[Talent: Yin and Yang]
【Lifespan: 25/1885】
[Spiritual roots: water (lower grade 6/100), earth (lower grade 4/100)]
【Mana: 11/100】
[Comprehensive strength: Early stage of innateness]
[Innate Spiritual Energy Progress (Level 1): 5/10]
Innate realm?
Have I broken through to the innate realm?
So fast!
Only then did Zheng Yi realize that all the internal energy in his Dantian had been converted into mana.
The energy generated by mana converted from spiritual energy is dozens of times more than ordinary internal power.
Moreover, even the martial arts techniques related to one's own attributes in the Yin Yang Treasure Mirror have all disappeared.
Instead, there are columns for spiritual roots and mana.
The two spiritual roots of water and earth are of inferior quality.
There is progress in the follow-up. As long as he continues to cultivate with Concubine Cui, he will be able to improve the quality of his spiritual roots.
At most, like Cui Xiabing, both water and earth spiritual roots can be upgraded to the top grade!
This...
For Zheng Yi, this is a huge benefit!
"Cui Xiabing has the spiritual roots of water and earth, and there is another woman in my palace who has spiritual roots!"
Zheng Yi murmured: "Yuechan!"
"She is possessed of Gu magic, and she wants to control me with love Gu. We have to find a way to dispel her wariness and then obtain her body... Oh no, it's the spiritual root!"
Under the surging thoughts, my hands couldn't help but feel a little strong.
"Your Majesty~!"
Cui Xiabing screamed and woke up.
As expected of a cultivator, her physique is even stronger than that of ordinary women.
Zheng Yi thought about it and asked: "Bing'er, is there any written record of the "Su Nu Yin Sha Gong·Qi Training" taught to you by your master?"
"Yes, yes..."
Cui Xiabing hesitated and said: "Your Majesty, do you want it? But that exercise is specifically for women to practice. Do you want to practice it for other sisters in the palace?"
"No, it's not."
Zheng Yi shook his head and said: "Your master also lived in the palace for a period of time, but he only accepted you. It seems that you may be the only one in the entire palace who has spiritual roots."
"My idea is... can the "Plain Girl Yin Sha Gong" be practiced by eunuchs?"
"Eunuch?"
Cui Xiabing's eyes widened: "Maybe... no."
"Isn't the eunuch a male? What?"
Zheng Yi said: "How about giving it a try? If I have a group of eunuchs who can practice cultivation..."
Speaking of this, Cui Xiabing still hesitated and said: "Your Majesty, Master once said that the Dharma cannot be transmitted to the six ears, and now the entire Da Yu cultivation world is in decline, and Dharma doors are difficult to enter and extremely rare."
"My concubine also swore a strong oath in front of the master before she could teach me the Dharma. I have to ask my master about this."
“What my beloved concubine said is that it’s me, Meng Lang.”
Zheng Yi hugged Cui Xiabing and said: "Since my beloved concubine has made a strong oath, forget it. I will find other ways."
"Your Majesty..."
Looking at Zheng Yi who was lost in thought, Cui Xiabing also leaned on his shoulder and said softly: "Don't be discouraged. When the master returns, I will definitely beg the master to let her give me the method."
< br>
"Hmm..."
Zheng Yi answered randomly, but his mind was already thinking about how to deal with Yuechan and excavating the tombs of emperors of past dynasties.
The next day.
Above the court, Zheng Yi did not appear. Instead, Liu Chengen issued the imperial edict.
"The emperor was entrusted by heaven, and the edict said: Cui Jinghao, Duke Cui, works diligently for the people and protects Dayu... In consideration of his contribution to Dayu and the country, his request to become an official is granted. In addition, he will be punished for his crime, 200,000 Mu! ”
Under the main hall, Cui Jinghao knelt down tremblingly and shouted: "My lord, thank you for your kindness!"
One million acres of farmland was converted into criminal land, which eventually became 200,000 acres.
Although it's a lot, at least it's not to the point of breaking your muscles and bones.
After the announcement, Liu Chengen said again: "According to His Majesty's command, Liang Fan, the former left minister of the Ministry of Punishment, temporarily takes over the position of Minister of the Ministry of Punishment!"
"Your Majesty, Liang Fan, please accept the order and thank me!"
A middle-aged man walked out quickly and knelt down to thank him.
The eyes of the other courtiers kept flickering.
This Liang Fan is Cui Jinghao's disciple.
In other words, although His Majesty punished Cui Jinghao, he did not punish him severely. ,
The Ministry of Punishment is still under the control of the Cui family.
"Retreat!"
The dynasty retreated, and the "Five-Year Plan" previously discussed by Zheng Yi, the Cabinet, the Six Ministers and others also gradually unfolded under their vigorous promotion.
Discuss the crime field.
Create a navy. Publicity Department.
Military merit system.
New departments and new systems are also gradually being developed.
The first thing that was revealed to everyone was the rules of the crime field, which made all the officials tremble with fear, but they also raised their hands in approval.
With this rule, the children and servants in their mansion, as long as they are not guilty of murder, rebellion, etc., can escape by paying the land!
But for small families and ordinary people, this crime is deeply painful!
The reason is very simple. Big landowners, big families and others don't care at all about dozens or even hundreds of acres of land.
As long as they are willing, they can easily take out thousands or even tens of thousands of acres of farmland to escape punishment.
Some people even shouted that the crime field should be changed to the crime bank. For any crime, you only need to pay to be exempted from punishment.
It's a pity that Zheng Yi has already expressly prohibited it, so he had no choice but to replace it with gold and silver.
After this rule was promulgated, in just a few days, the officials from the Ministry of Household Affairs who were responsible for enforcing the penalty land confiscated tens of thousands of acres of land, all of which were donated by the sons of some aristocratic families and officials!
This does not include the 200,000 acres of land handed over by Cui Jinghao!
In addition to Cui Jinghao, there was another person who paid a total of 100,000 acres of criminal land.
Zhao Jingyi!
This person was a soldier and horse commander of the Chinese army, and he secretly took in a woman from the Wu Kingdom as a concubine, which was exposed by Zheng Yuantao.
Not only did he pay 100,000 acres of land for crime, he also lost his official position and was directly demoted to a pawn guarding the city gate, which was extremely miserable.
But these confiscated fields were transformed into military fields through another operation!
The Shenji Battalion and Forbidden Army soldiers who captured Yancheng were the first batch of soldiers to receive military merit.
Just when many officials and people were having heated discussions about the "Five-Year Plan" released by Zheng Yi, Zheng Yi himself came to Bai Yujing and met with another group of people.
Shadow Guard.
More than forty Shadow Guards who had already carried out their missions were summoned here, along with more than three hundred other children.
These children are the Shadow Guard reserves who have been personally selected by Chen Liancang over the past two years.
But today, I received an order from His Majesty to come here to meet up.
In addition to these shadow guards, there are actually several others.
Chen Liancang, Liu Zhongyi, Chen Hongxiu, Zhao Tieshan, Meng Guang, Lu Lian and others.
These people are all young men in the military whom Zheng Yi values, and they are also soldiers loyal to Zheng Yi.
In fact, there are several other people Zheng Yi also wants to join the imperial party, such as Wang Anshi, Shen Xing, Li Ziyang and others.
It's a pity that time is short, so we can only stick to this group of people first.
Zheng Yi Da Ma Jin Dao sat on the dragon chair, and a special flag appeared behind him.
The whole body is golden yellow, but there is another pattern painted on it.
A dragon pattern circling in a circle is exquisite in shape, blood red in color, every detail is visible, and it is ferocious and domineering.
This is the flag of the Dayu Dynasty designed by Zheng Yi himself.
At the same time, it is also the banner of the imperial party!
Today, Zheng Yi called this group of people here for the purpose of establishing the imperial party.
He wants to hold a ceremony for the first batch of imperialists to join the party.
For the first group of people, Zheng Yi only selected the Shadow Guard and his personal eunuchs.
For safety and privacy.
Zheng Yi sat in front of the dragon chair, while Chen Liancang stood in front of Zheng Yi. Below were more than three hundred shadow guards.
"Kneel down!"
With an order, more than three hundred shadow guards knelt down.
Chen Liancang said in a hoarse voice: "We are Shadow Guards, and we should be loyal to His Majesty to the death!"
"But my emperor is merciful, and Scheer and others will join the imperial party!"
"As soon as you join the imperial party, you should be His Majesty's son, consider everything for Your Majesty, make decisions for the people of the world, and be born to protect the world of Dayu!"
As soon as the words fell, more than 300 people shouted in unison: "Death for Your Majesty!"
"Get up!"
With a "swish" sound, more than 300 people immediately saluted.
"I swear!"
"I swear!"
In Chen Liancang's respectful and solemn voice, more than 300 people followed him and shouted in unison.
In the crowd, Chen Hongxiu, Zhao Tieshan, Meng Guang and others looked at each other in confusion.
They received His Majesty's order and came to Bai Yujing to accept the party joining ceremony while sending troops.
I originally thought it was similar to the sacrificial flag before the army set off, but I didn't expect it to be such a weird ceremony.
Dozens of warriors who were obviously eunuchs but had very feminine auras.
Among them, Meng Guang's eyes twitched. The martial arts cultivation of the more than forty eunuchs present were all third-level warriors!
The auras of several of them have even entered the first-level realm.
His Majesty still has such power in his hands!
In addition to these feminine eunuchs, there were actually more than 300 children who looked like they were only eight or nine years old.
These children also want to participate in some kind of imperial party oath-taking ceremony?
There was another "swish" sound, and more than three hundred people all clenched their right hands into fists and pressed them firmly on the heart.
"We join the Imperial Party of the Yu Dynasty!"
"We join the imperial party of the Yu Dynasty..."
Chen Liancang chanted every word, and the others also chanted word by word.
The oath is very short, and can be recited in less than ten breaths.
"...I am willing to sacrifice everything for Your Majesty and Dayu!"
"...I am willing to sacrifice everything for Your Majesty and Dayu!"
The voices were high and powerful, especially those of the more than three hundred children. At this moment, their eyes had changed from confused and panicked to sharp and shining.
The children of the poor have become parents early.
Not to mention this group of children displaced by famine and drought.
As early as the moment Chen Liancang adopted them, they were no longer humans, but killing machines!
But now, Zheng Yi gave them another road, another road full of light.
For them, it is salvation.
In the future, they will dedicate everything to Zheng Yi and the Dayu Dynasty!
Even Chen Hongxiu, Zhao Tieshan, Meng Guang, Lu Lian and others changed their mood and vision after reciting the oath.
His original loyalty to the emperor became even more obvious now.
Loyal to the king, loyal to Zheng Yi!
He is loyal to Dayu!
"Well, good."
Zheng Yi stood up slowly and said: "Gentlemen, congratulations on your successful joining the imperial party."
"From today on, you are our own people."
A row of little eunuchs walked up quickly holding trays. On the trays, there were rows of exquisite... badges.
Zheng Yi personally picked up the badges and placed them on the chests of the group of people one by one.
The ceremony was solemn and solemn, and some people were so excited that they had tears in their eyes.
Your Majesty, he personally pinned badges on them, and also spoke affectionately to each member of the imperial party, trying his best to comfort them.
For them, this is really... so happy!
Your Majesty's kindness will never end in a lifetime!
Not just me, but even my children and grandchildren are not done yet!
"Gentlemen, Dayu, please help me!"
"I dare not to die for Your Majesty!"
