Transcendent Ember

Chapter 676
Nicholas Dynasty, Penderby.

After Rose's downfall, Howard, who possessed the power of the dragon, became the new leader of the nobles.As for the official leader, it is still Fang Yun.
Da da da! ——

Howard came to Nicholas VII (Talham)'s meeting room with slightly hasty steps, and when he entered the door, he looked surprised and said: "Your Majesty, good news, good news, great news!"

Nicholas VII had a sad expression on his face. When the pursuit of Zhang Jichuan and Taisia ​​was announced as a failure, the new Emperor His Majesty has been very unhappy, and at the same time, there was a faint uneasiness in his heart.

He always felt that the missing Taisia ​​would be a huge threat to him.

But now Taisia ​​is no longer in the Nicholas Dynasty, not even in the Roentgen Dynasty. Even if Nicholas VII wanted to send someone to kill her, she could not be found.

Therefore, during this period of time, Nicholas VII's face has always been clouded, so that a group of guards and maids dare not show their atmosphere.
Hearing Howard's words, Nicholas VII barely cheered up and looked at the other party: "Mr. Howard, what good news can make you so happy?"

Howard bowed and saluted, and said in an excited tone: "Your Majesty, I have received news that Qiao Lisa, the former richest man in Gu Yue Kingdom and the general agent of the opium trade, poisoned the major cities of Gu Yue Kingdom, and has now let Gu Yue All large and medium-sized cities in the country were paralyzed”

"What?" Nicholas VII stood up in astonishment, and looked at Howard in disbelief. "Jorissa poisoned? All large and medium-sized cities in Gu Yue Kingdom were paralyzed?"

"Yes!" Howard said confidently, "Your Majesty, there is no need to doubt, I have already sent someone to confirm the news. In addition, I also found out that all the troops in the Gu Yue Kingdom were also affected by the opium thrown by Qiao Lisa." Devoured, lost fighting power.
"Your Majesty, the long-awaited situation of the late emperor has come true under your tenure!"

By the end, Howard's voice was trembling.

That's right, the current situation of Gu Yue Kingdom is the situation that Nicholas VI had been waiting for for a long time. The former emperor hoped to use opium to make most of the soldiers and civilians of Gu Yue Kingdom lose their resistance, and then they could annex it without bloodshed. Ancient Moon Kingdom.

This is why when Jiang Heng banned smoking, Nicholas VI decisively sent troops
But I didn't expect a series of things happened later, Nicholas VI died, and the opium policy was completely abolished
Howard originally thought that Nicholas VI's strategy had failed, but unexpectedly, Gu Yue Kingdom produced a Jolisa, who actually took the initiative to make Gu Yue Kingdom into what Nicholas VI had been looking forward to for a long time.
boom!
Nicholas VII patted the table excitedly: "If this is the case, then"

"That's right!" Howard said, "Your Majesty, now is an opportune time to annex Gu Yue Kingdom."

"Great!" Nicholas VII was beaming with excitement. Although he became the emperor, a small half of the country was split by the Roentgen Dynasty, and after all it was criticized by others.

If Gu Yue Kingdom can be annexed, then the land split by the Roentgen Dynasty will be ten cents in nine years, and he will also leap from an unsuccessful ruler to a king who expands the territory.

But Nicholas VII was a little worried: "Mr. Howard, didn't you, Fang Qing, and Capet say that they are going to recuperate now? If you want to use troops at this time?"

"Your Majesty, it's time and time!" Howard hurriedly said, "The reason for the truce with the Roentgen rebels is because the Roentgen rebels are powerful and will fight for a long time. We have just experienced a food shortage crisis and cannot sustain a long-term war." war.

"It's different to annex Gu Yue Kingdom!
"At this time, the Gu Yue Kingdom is just a fat sheep ready to be slaughtered, and there is no way to fight back. My army can drive straight in and take down the entire Gu Yue Kingdom in one fell swoop!

"The opportunity is fleeting. If you don't seize this opportunity, it will be too late when Gu Yue Kingdom resolves the crisis."

Nicholas VII was puzzled: "Can the opium crisis be resolved in Gu Yue?"

"Your Majesty, don't forget that Zhang Jichuan has already returned to Ancient Moon Kingdom," Howard reminded.

Hearing Zhang Jichuan's words, Nicholas VII's face instantly became very ugly, and he smashed the table bitterly: "I forgot, Zhang Jichuan and Huang Donghe have a great relationship!

"In this case, then call a group of ministers, I want to expand the territory!"

Howard was overjoyed: "Yes!"

"His Majesty."

Hongji Kingdom, the capital Xihong, the imperial palace.

Qin Ziyu knelt on the ground in front of all the ministers of the Hongji Kingdom, and said with tears in his eyes: "What I said just now is true, that bastard Li Luo made the people of Gu Yue miserable, and now the people of Gu Yue are in deep trouble." Opium addiction cannot extricate itself...

"As a native of Gu Yue, I really can't bear to see the people of my old country fall into such a miserable situation...

"Your Majesty is a virtuous king. Who in the world doesn't know? I implore Your Majesty to send troops to overthrow Li Luo's brutal rule and save the people of Gu Yue Kingdom from suffering...

"Your Majesty's great kindness, all the people of Gu Yue Kingdom will definitely remember it in their hearts, and the two countries will definitely have a good relationship for generations because of this, and write a good story..."

In the main hall, many officials of the Hongji Kingdom secretly pursed their lips when they heard Qin Ziyu's sonorous and forceful voice, and the same thought came to their minds in unison:
Isn't opium introduced to Gu Yue Kingdom by your father Qin Huaimin and his ally Zhou Chang?Why did it become Li Luo's incriminating evidence?

But no one said this kind of thought, because...

A white-haired old man came out, bowed slightly to the tall, calm and majestic Emperor Canghong, and said:

"Your Majesty, as Ziyu said, I have confirmed it. The current situation in Gu Yue Kingdom is indeed not optimistic. All medium and large cities have been paralyzed. I have gathered relevant information and reported it to Your Majesty..."

A court attendant beside Emperor Canghong heard the words and immediately handed a tablet computer to Emperor Canghong.

His Majesty the emperor flipped through the pictures on the computer and looked up at the old man: "Xu Qing, do you also hope that I will send troops to regain power for your grandson?"

That's right, the white-haired old man is Qin Ziyu's grandfather, Grand Duke Xu Nan.

He nodded and said: "Your Majesty, it is true that Ziyu is the grandson of the minister, but it is also true that the situation in Gu Yue Kingdom is shocking.

"I hope that Ziyu can regain his power in Gu Yue Kingdom, but at the same time, I also hope that the hundreds of millions of people in Gu Yue Kingdom can get rid of the nightmare. There is no conflict between the two...

"Looking at the world, only His Majesty can do this, and His Majesty should already be clear about Ziyu's character. For our country, the Gu Yue Kingdom under his control has only advantages and no disadvantages..."

Emperor Canghong nodded slightly, but he didn't agree immediately, but asked others: "What do you think?"

"Your Majesty!" A nobleman serving in the army immediately said, "I think Duke Xu Nan is right. In the whole world, only our country can save the people of Gu Yue Kingdom. I implore Your Majesty to agree to send troops to overthrow Li Luo's brutality." Rule, and restore Gu Yue Kingdom to a bright future."

"I also agree." An official in charge of taxation said, "Your Majesty, the people of Gu Yue Kingdom are in urgent need of rescue. Your Majesty, please order the dispatch of troops."

"Your Majesty, please send troops to overthrow Li Luo!"

"Your Majesty, please send troops to save Gu Yue Kingdom from the fire and water!"

"Your Majesty, please send troops..."

"Your Majesty, please send troops..."

……

Qin Ziyu, who was kneeling on the ground, had a smile on his face. Hearing the words of the officials of the Hongji Kingdom, he felt for the first time that the day when Li Luo would be defeated and the glory of the Qin family would be restored... is not far away!

Qiao Lisha, my father trusted you so much in the past, hahaha... Qin Ziyu was very excited.

But at this moment, he heard the voice of Emperor Canghong: "This matter is of great importance, we can't act rashly, let's retreat first..."

The smile on Qin Ziyu's face froze, and he said hastily, "Your Majesty..."

But Emperor Canghong has already turned around and returned to the harem...

The surrounding officials and nobles were a little surprised, but they left the court without saying anything.

Da da.

A pair of shiny and gorgeous boots appeared in front of Qin Ziyu's eyes, and at the same time, Xu Nan's voice sounded: "Get up, child."

"Grandpa..." Qin Ziyu stood up, held Xu Nan's arm, and said via voice transmission with a puzzled expression on his face, "What is your Majesty thinking? Such a good opportunity, he..."

Xu Nan reached out to stop Qin Ziyu from continuing, and said with a slight smile, "Son, be patient..."

As soon as the words fell, the two heard a voice: "Mr. Xu, please stay. Your Majesty invites you to discuss matters in the inner hall."

"Isn't it coming..." Xu Nan moved his lips, and said to Qin Ziyu, "Son, wait for grandpa outside the palace, grandpa will come out in a while."

After finishing speaking, Xu Nan nodded to the servant who came to deliver the message, and followed him into the inner hall.

Qin Ziyu saw his grandfather and some important officials entering the inner hall, and a trace of excitement flashed in his eyes. He understood that there are some things that Emperor Canghong didn't want to discuss in front of the officials, but only wanted to discuss with some of his confidant officials.

So Qin Ziyu waited silently at the gate of the palace.

This wait is an hour...

When Xu Nan was escorted out of the palace gate by his servant, Qin Ziyu couldn't wait to step forward, looking at the old man eagerly: "Grandpa..."

Xu Nan nodded: "Your Majesty invited the Grand Master Zhuo Ran to calculate the good and bad, and Zhuo Ran gave an affirmative answer. Your Majesty has decided to send troops..."

Zhuo Ran... Qin Ziyu's mind emerged a figure dressed in purple, with white beard and hair but a radiant face, and nodded. He knew that this person was the head teacher of the Ziwei Sect, which had recently developed rapidly in the Hongji Kingdom.

Qin Ziyu was not familiar with this person, but since this person facilitated Emperor Canghong's decision to send troops, Qin Ziyu couldn't help but have a good impression of him.

He clenched his fist excitedly. He has been waiting for this day for a long time...

Xu Nan looked at his excited grandson, and suddenly continued, "But child, you must know that His Majesty will not help you for no reason... After you seize power, you will allocate the land of five provinces to Hongji."

The land of the five provinces... Qin Ziyu's face suddenly froze.
