Just when Xu Boyuan and Chen Ying were cleaning up the remaining forces of the aristocratic families in the southern counties, Zheng Ying, the king of Zheng State in the eastern territory, was a little stupid at this time.

He brought 600,000 troops to the east, and even did not hesitate to command the troops personally, so that after Xiao Yan's army captured the capital of the Great Zhou, he could immediately advance westward. At that time, he would do whatever it takes to force his troops to break through Xunyang City guarded by Zhang Yuan, and then attack Xiao Yan's army inside and outside, forcibly eat the Great Zhou.

As a result, he was ready for everything. What he was waiting for was not the good news that Xiao Yanbing captured the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty, but the body of Xiao Yanbing.

"Second Brother Xiao..."

Zheng Ying looked at Zheng Ying's body in disbelief. After a brief grief, he grabbed Xiao Chong's neckline like an angry lion, "Tell me, why is this happening?"

"Brother Xiao is invincible in the world. How could he lose? Did Da Zhou plot against him? Did Da Zhou use any tricks? Is anyone betrayed him?"

"How could he lose? He can't lose!!!"

Xiao Yanbing's defeat and death not only means that he lacked a pillar of the country in Zheng State, but also means that his hard work for more than ten years has been wasted now, so Zheng Ying, who is full of expectations, is about to be driven crazy by this powerful sense of gap.

"Unworthy job."

Xiao Chong, who was already in a haggard heart, looked at Zheng Ying's reaction and felt even more sad. He couldn't even say something to argue, and stood there with red eyes.

Seeing this situation, the right prime minister Cui You, who accompanied Zheng Ying, was silent for a long time. He also knew about the king's plan, but he didn't expect it would be the result.

"What did you encounter?"

Cui You stepped forward and helped Zheng Ying back, then spoke to Xiao Chong and said, "There are 20,000 troops in the Guards, and they are led by General Xiao. How could you be defeated so tragically? Even General Xiao was not spared."

"That Red Flame Dragon Knight is really...it's too strong."

When Xiao Chong heard Cui You's question, he barely replied to some reason. He only remembered the almost invulnerable Red Flame Dragon Knight that day, and couldn't help but feel a little bitter on his face. He would cross Wanling Mountain, take down Yanyang County, and finally defeat Xiao Yan's army and die. He said it in a complete manner.

After saying that, Xiao Chong's eyes were filled with tears, "In order to cross Wanling Mountain, more than a thousand brothers were lost in the mountains and forests. As a result, we paid such a great price, but we got a result of the entire army being lost."

When talking about these things, Xiao Chong was filled with grief. He could not understand why they paid such a big price but this result.

"Most of them are Red Flame Dragon Knights in the Marrow Cleansing Realm?"

When Cui You heard the Red Flame Dragon Knight described by Xiao Chong, he couldn't help but be stunned. If he hadn't looked at Zheng Ying beside him with an incredible look, he really suspected that he had heard it wrong.

"absurd!"

Zheng Ying, who reacted, suddenly stood up, glared at Xiao Chong and said, "Do you know what the concept of marrow cleaning state is? Do you know what the five thousand marrow cleaning state means?"

"Whether you surrender to death or escape in the battle, I can't blame you for bringing back the body of Brother Xiao, but if you dare to lie about military information and confuse the public, I will never tolerate you!"

"I have been following the general for more than thirty years. I am not afraid of death, and I will not do anything to turn against the master and surrender to the enemy."

Xiao Chong, who was suspected, knelt directly on the ground, buried his head deeply, and said, "If the general ordered Bei Yi to send his body back and help him guard the tomb, Bei Yi had already committed suicide and followed the general."

"Your Majesty, don't worry, Commander Xiao Chong is General Xiao's personal soldiers. After following General Xiao for many years, there will naturally be no problem with loyalty."

Cui You first advised Zheng Ying, then turned around to appease Xiao Chong, and said, "President Xiao, don't blame Your Majesty, after all, what you said is really a bit incredible."

"Five Thousand Marrow Cleansing Realm..."

Cui You said this, subconsciously shook his head and said, "I won't talk about how many resources you need in the Five Thousand Marrow Cleansing Realm. Just talking about the state of Marrow Cleansing Realm, it can't be piled up with resources at all. Even if the Great Zhou has so many resources, how could he find such a talented person with physical cultivation?"

"I don't know about the humble position at this time, but the humble position itself is the marrow cleansing realm. It is certain that the soldiers are the marrow cleansing realm."

Xiao Chong's face showed grief again and said, "In that war, Bei Zhi saw several familiar generals in the Marrow-Sweeping Realm who were defeated by ordinary soldiers of the Red Flame Dragon Cavalry."

"And...if not, how could the general order the Guard Army to surrender?"

As soon as Xiao Chong said this, Zheng Ying and Cui You were both silent. They knew very well about Xiao Yanbing. If the gap was not too big to be smeared, Xiao Yanbing would definitely not have allowed his soldiers to surrender.

"In this world... are there all troops in the marrow-cleaning realm?"

Although he no longer doubted Xiao Chong, Zheng Ying still felt a little unbelievable. He looked up at Qiankou and asked, "Cui Qing, what do you think about this?"

"I don't know either."

Cui You smiled bitterly. Although reason told him that what Xiao Chong said was definitely not a problem, he still couldn't believe it when he thought that an army of 5,000 people was composed of the Marrow Cleansing Realm. "If there was such a strong army, I'm afraid that it would change this day."

Zheng Ying knew what Cui You meant. Although this was a bit disrespectful, he didn't care at this time, because if Xiao Chong said it was right, it would be hard to say where Zheng State will go in the future.

When Xiao Chong heard the two of them talking about this, he hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "Before his death, the general had a conversation with Mo Zizai. Mo Zizai seemed to have told the general about why there were so many martial artists in the Great Zhou Dynasty."

"Although the general did not disclose this to me, he asked me to give his Majesty a word."

"oh?"

Hearing this, Zheng Ying was immediately excited. He looked at Xiao Chong with some anticipation and asked, "Speak quickly, what did Brother Xiao ask you to bring?"

"General..."

Looking at Zheng Ying's expectant eyes, Xiao Chong suddenly felt a little confused about how to speak. He had already brought up this matter and had to say it, so he had to bite the bullet and say, "He asked me to tell His Majesty that it is actually good to be a prince."

"What?"

Zheng Ying originally thought that Xiao Yanbing asked him to lead a clever plan, but he did not expect that such words were indeed the king of Zheng and asked him to be a prince. Isn’t this just to surrender?

"How...how could it be?"

Zheng Ying only felt the darkness in front of him, and his whole body shook for a while, and almost fell to the ground.

He and Xiao Yanbing are in harmony with the king and minister. Over the years, even if he let Xiao Yanbing stay idle for so long, there was no gap between him and Xiao Yanbing, so he knew very well that if it were not for a glimmer of hope, Xiao Yanbing would never have let Xiao Chong bring such words to him.

"Brother Xiao, what do you know?"

Zheng Ying fell on the chair with a little unconscious eyes. He knew that Xiao Yanbing must have known something extraordinary before he died. Otherwise, with just five thousand Red Flame Dragon Cavalry, even if they were from the Marrow Cleansing Realm, Xiao Yanbing would never persuade him like this.

"His Majesty……"

Cui You looked at Zheng Ying who was a little desperate, and didn't know how to persuade him. He was silent for a long time before he spoke, "Otherwise, let's retreat first."

"Since General Xiao has failed, it will be meaningless even if we can conquer the Eastern Realm."

"Retreat...retreat."

Zheng Ying shook his head powerlessly. After receiving the news of Xiao Yanbing's defeat and death, he was furious and even wanted to directly raise his troops to conquer the East and avenge Xiao Yanbing.

As a result, after Xiao Chong finished saying these words, let alone attacking the Eastern Realm, even his own throne was a little worried. "In addition, send a small school to the Great Zhou and send more. It is necessary to find out how these Red Flame Dragon Knights came from, and... Besides these Red Flame Dragon Knights, what other resources do the Great Zhou have to rely on."

"Here."

Cui You knew what Zheng Ying was worried about, so he responded and did not ask too much.

...

Mo Zizai knew about Zheng Ying and Chen Bing's East Frontier, but he was not clear about his withdrawal. Even if he was clear, he had no time to worry about it now.

During this period, he took the time to go to the south and rushed most of the money he got from Xu Boyuan and Chen Ying to the accelerator. As a result, he was promoted to level 8, and more than 200 million taels of silver were added.

Now, the acceleration multiple has doubled, and the main acceleration position multiple has increased from the original 200 times to 400 times. The main acceleration position is the same as before, and has increased one as usual.

As for the low-level acceleration position, the multiple has also doubled, from the original 20 times to 40 times. Now Mo Zi's army is practicing faster.

In addition, the number of low-level acceleration positions has doubled. It was originally 200,000, but now it has become 400,000. With so many, even if the prisoners need to repair bridges, roads and dig ditches, it is more than enough.

And this is the only good news that Mo Zizai encountered during this period. Apart from this, everything else is troublesome.

First of all, it is Liuzhou. It has been raining heavily since March 1st. It has been nearly a month since now.

Such heavy rainfall has caused the water level of the Wei River to soar, the river bank has broken, and three counties have been flooded, and seven more counties are in danger.

Mo Zizai had no choice but to let Han Qu transfer Shenwei's army to fight against the flood, the rest could only let Tang Weiyi organize people to rescue the disaster.

And the most troublesome thing is that in addition to Liuzhou, other states also have disasters in different situations. Although they are not as serious as Liuzhou, their scope is wider and involve more people, which leads to the weakening of the imperial court. Even if they put many newcomers on top, there is not enough manpower.

In addition to this natural disaster, what made Mo Zizai feel was that there was also man-made disaster.

"Shiko, these bastards don't want to live anymore, right?"

Mo Zizai looked at the secret report in his hand and fell to the ground in anger, "One of them, remember to eat and not beat them, are you really forcing me to kill you?"

Due to the great disaster in Liuzhou, the court repeatedly ordered grain merchants not to hoard goods and not to take the opportunity to raise prices. Those who violate the order will be killed without mercy.

As a result, these grain merchants were so good that they did not dare to disobey the orders of the court on the surface, but secretly sent their own people to queue up to buy grain. This led to grain shops, which seemed to be selling grain every day, but there were very few people who could actually buy grain.

In this way, those people without food could only eat the court's relief grain, which greatly increased the burden on the court.

But from a legal point of view, these people did not violate the law, which led to local officials knowing that they were making trouble, but there was no evidence, let alone doing anything to them.

"Okay, since you dare to die, then I will dare to bury it!"

Mo Zizai said viciously, and then directly summoned the people from the East Factory.

From his eyes, it is naturally possible to see who is making trouble behind this matter. It is nothing more than those families who are unwilling to be taken away by Mo Zizai to privilege. They dare not cause trouble on the surface now, so they make small moves in secret to pull the court's back.

Moreover, they chose this very good time. At this time, the court was busy with disaster relief, so they could not spare their hands to pay attention to them. When the matter was over, they swept the beginning and end and directly cut off their relationship. Even if the court wanted to deal with them, they could not find any handle.

After all, the court has to preach the rules. If there is no evidence, it will kill randomly. Even if it will be happy for a moment, it will collapse the rules of the Great Zhou, so they are still fearless.

However, Mo Zizai didn't care about so many of them. He had the Imperial Command to supervise the inside and outside, and the army suppressed all sides. Then he was the legal principle!

"Xiao Lu, will you go to Liuzhou kill someone?"

"go!"

When Tang Weilu heard Mo Zizai's words, she did not hesitate at all. Although the palace was good, she was so bored that she stayed here. In addition, Tang Weilu is now a person who likes movement but does not like quietness, so she could go out to relax and stay with Mo Zi, and immediately responded without hesitation.

"Go to Liuzhou?"

As a monarch, all the major events in the world are in Tang Weiyi's heart, so although he is busy with disaster relief these days, when he hears Mo Zizai say he wants to go to Liuzhou, he immediately understands what Mo Zizai is going to do.

"Do you want to move the aristocratic family in Liuzhou?"

Tang Weiyi thought for a while, then said, "Okay, these people have been a bit rampant these days. I originally planned to let Shi Zhipei go there."

"Now since Brother Mo is going, there is no need to let him go."

Shi Zhipei is now the Left Censor of the Censorate. This person is upright and has the means to be a human being. If he is asked to go to Liuzhou, with his skills, he will naturally have a way to force those aristocratic families to spit out their food.

However, since Mo Zizai planned to go now, Tang Weiyi naturally would not let Shi Zhipei go again.

After all, no matter how many methods Shi Zhipei has, he has to rely on laws to judge people and to threaten and lure those people in aristocratic families.

But Mo Zizai is different. He is unreasonable, let alone the law. Since he has gone, he is going to kill people. When he kills people and collects the house, the food will be solved naturally.
