Chapter 634: Alliance of interests, Princess Qionghua's awakening, the army marches out

There is no emotion between Princess Qionghua and Chu Wujiang.

The two of them didn't even meet each other a few times.

There was no communication during the last war.

They were connected because of the Northern Expedition.

Princess Qionghua's face turned slightly red. She relaxed her body and mind, and her sea of ​​consciousness. Chu Wujiang then activated the Fate Void to devour her negative fate.

Tired of jade, and lived alone until the end of his life.

These two forces of fate are enough to push her into the abyss.

But there is a solution to fate. Her solution is to recognize her own love and desire, liberate herself, and frankly admit that she has a special aesthetic sense of ugliness.

People's preferences and desires are sometimes determined by fate.

Some people are attracted to older men, some are attracted to lolis, some are attracted to older men, some are attracted to shotas, and so on.

So it's not strange to like ugly and weird people.

Humans are incredibly diverse, allowing them to survive in any situation.

However, Princess Qionghua is the daughter of Di Hao, the apple of the imperial family's eye, so this hobby seems particularly strange.

If that's the case, then it's fine.

Beauty turns to bones, and glory is fleeting.

The human body is nothing but a bag of skin, and the beauty or ugliness of the body doesn't matter. But she herself has an extraordinary face and can recognize beauty and ugliness.

She knows that ugliness is ugly and beauty is beauty.

There was a violent conflict between the two, as if they had split personalities.

Such pain has always been hidden in Princess Qionghua's heart, making her the most popular girl in the imperial family and causing her to reject countless marriages.

And now, everything has been made clear by Chu Wujiang.

She had to face her innermost thoughts.

"Do you like ugly people?"

The answer is physical liking.

I don't like it psychologically.

Genetic genes determine physiological responses.

Acquired education determines psychological reactions.

No matter which religion it is, it always explores the inner self.

Princess Qionghua’s biggest problem is that her inner and physical self are not in sync.

The solution is also very simple. Find an ugly but extremely outstanding man to break her inner demons and help her achieve inner and physical unity.

But Chu Wujiang intercepted him halfway.

Before Princess Qionghua became a wanderer among the common people and experienced such a fate, she met the One Who Has No Fate.

Chu Wujiang used the magic of heaven and earth and cooperated with the one who had the fate of nothingness to draw out Princess Qionghua's dark peach blossom luck bit by bit.

Princess Qionghua's original fate was also cut short at this moment.

If history had followed the normal trajectory, the human race's Northern Expedition would have failed, or the royal court would have moved south.

In times of crisis, the human race could not defend Tianjing, and Princess Qionghua had to flee, and at that time she revealed her inner demons.

She no longer rejected the split between her mind and body, completed the unity of soul and flesh, and advanced to become a perfect god.

Princess Qionghua possesses the talents of [White Robe Army] and [Dragon Rider's Might], and it seems that she is also a member of the resistance army in the Dark Age.

It's just that those whose fate is nihilistic are constantly correcting the trajectory of their fate.

Princess Qionghua has never had such an experience and is still in a state of division.

Chu Wujiang grasped fate by the throat and said softly:

"Your Highness, are you okay now?"

"Do you still feel uncomfortable being close to me?"

Princess Qionghua looked at Chu Wujiang's handsome face and whispered:

"Lighter than before."

“I used to feel nauseous, but now it’s much better.”

"But General, if I give up my own reaction, will I be unable to reach the highest position?"

Although she agreed to give up [Yan Yu], she was still a little worried when the time came.

This is also the reason why Chu Wujiang did not use the Ten Deadly Lives and directly ate his fate.

He smiled and said:

"Your Highness, you can change your mind."

“There is a person who likes to eat stones in life and feels uncomfortable if he doesn’t eat stones.”

"He has two options. The first is to stop eating rocks, find out the physical cause and get treatment."

"The second is to keep eating stones and eventually eat yourself to death."

"You can't say that the latter is right to follow his heart."

Princess Qionghua suddenly realized:
"General, do you think I am ill?"

Chu Wujiang nodded with a smile and said:

"of course."

"The way of heaven is fair. There is no such thing as good or bad."

"The arrangement of fate is naturally full of mistakes and omissions, which need to be made up by humanity."

"Some people are born with weak constitutions and diseases, and we will treat them, but why can't we regard liking ugly people as a disease?"

"Perhaps it is not fatal, and may even provide Her Royal Highness with a suitable companion."

"But now you may not like it."

Princess Qionghua fell into deep thought.

She hated handsome guys and felt uncomfortable when she saw a handsome man, but she never thought about whether she was sick.

Chu Wujiang came from his previous life, and he had many organic diseases in his body that could not be treated by human power.

Manpower is sometimes scarce.

Disease is to be conquered by science and medicine, not by willpower.

Princess Qionghua relaxed a lot. Chu Wujiang already had the ability to cultivate the magical appearance of a celestial being, and he was extremely effective when persuading others.

Her Royal Highness the Princess sighed:
"General, you are right. I am just treating the disease."

The next second, Chu Wujiang smiled.

The Fate Void swallowed up the entire dark fate, and the Fates of Ten Absolutes grew stronger again.

Even so, it is far from reaching its limit.

Princess Qionghua felt a sense of relief in her body. Originally, when she stared at Chu Wujiang, she would feel uncomfortable and nauseous, but now the feeling of rejection in her body was much lessened.

The more I look at it, the better it looks.

Princess Qionghua recalled the heroic figures of the Heroic Army fighting across the sea, and could not help asking:
"General, why do I feel that you have become ugly?"

Originally, when she saw Chu Wujiang, she thought he had the appearance of an immortal, a true being from heaven.

Now it has decreased a lot.

Chu Wujiang laughed in silence, and then he slowly released the charm that he had absorbed from the ephemeral cereus.

At this moment, Princess Qionghua seemed to have seen a god.

My heartbeat is about to stop.

She opened her mouth several times, but couldn't help closing it.

My heart beats very fast.

The biological mating instinct and the pursuit of beauty suddenly occupied her mind, and she even couldn't help but want to kiss him.

No, you can't!
Princess Qionghua suddenly realized that her original talent of Yan Yu helped her avoid disaster.

Yan Yu was absorbed by Chu Wujiang, which gave her an unusual compensatory psychology and made her more obsessed with looks than anyone else.

calm down.

Princess Qionghua bit her red lips, fearing that she would do something indecent.

Chu Wujiang did not take advantage of the opportunity, but instead retracted his charm and smiled faintly:

"It seems that Her Royal Highness is fine now."

"It's better to take a rest first and try to advance to the soul in a few days."

Princess Qionghua's eyes were filled with disappointment, and she couldn't help but ask:
"Does the general have any problem with me?"

"Or am I just ugly?"

Princess Qionghua's most famous deed was that she was dissatisfied with her ranking first on the Young Phoenix List, so she went to Fengyu Tower and asked to be included in the Potential Dragon List.

She was naturally strong-willed.

Chu Wujiang laughed dumbly and said:

"Of course not."

"It's just that men and women shouldn't touch each other. Your Highness has finally recovered her ability to appreciate beauty. I can't take advantage of her."

You have taken advantage of someone's misfortune.

Princess Qionghua bit her red lips. She would never forget the fleeting beauty of the scene.

At that moment, Chu Wujiang was like a god.

A person's appearance could actually reach divinity. She suddenly realized what it meant to be a favorite of God.

calm down.

Princess Qionghua clenched her hands and tried to calm herself down. The aversion to handsome men that had accumulated over the years was still taking effect.

She gritted her teeth and calmed herself down.

This really works.

Princess Qionghua's breathing gradually became steady. Seeing Chu Wujiang standing up to see the guests off, she quickly called out:
"Wait a minute, General."

"I came to the Chu Mansion to ask you some business besides to fulfill the Yuan Shen."

Chu Wujiang nodded and said:

"But there's no harm in talking."

Princess Qionghua whispered:

"Yesterday, the general gave the prince a suggestion: farming and fighting should be integrated, and fighting should rely on the country."

"Does the general want to include the middle class, the poor, the clans, and the noble families into the military service?"

Chu Wujiang nodded and said:

"good."

"The court does not need to collect taxes or recruit people yet. It should first conduct an investigation to determine how many people from the middle class, poor families, and clans can be included in the reserve force."

The middle class refers to small or medium-sized landlords who own several hundred to a thousand acres of land, or at least rich peasants.

A poor family refers to a wealthy family whose members once held high positions but later fell into decline.

As for people like Ba Cheng who earn some money in the city, they are citizens and farmhands, and are not middle class at all.

The martial arts world has very high requirements for the warrior class. You have to have the cultivation level of Yuantai realm to be considered as entering the threshold of a warrior.

Therefore, Chu Wujiang's plan is to first investigate and screen the entire country and establish a corresponding mobilization mechanism to replenish reserve forces for the upcoming war.

There are hundreds of states in the world, tens of billions of farmland, vast amounts of minerals, and natural treasures, which support countless forces and warriors.

If the imperial court wants to enter a state of general mobilization, it must obtain information about these warriors and put them on file.

Princess Qionghua took a deep breath and said:
"According to what Big Brother said, the General meant that the landlords and gentry who do not participate in this war are not worthy of owning land and wealth."

"Won't it be that the whole world will rebel and repeat the mistakes of Emperor Wu?"

Princess Qionghua's words also vaguely hinted that she was deeply worried about her elder brother's immediate agreement to change the entire world into a national war mode.

Chu Wujiang opened his mouth, and it was hard to say who the local tyrants in the world would vent their resentment on.

In general, small and medium-sized landlords are weak in the face of the imperial court, but they will be like dragon veins, secretly colluding with rebels in various places to provide convenience for them.

Chu Wujiang smiled and said:

"This is different."

"I didn't say that I would exploit them now."

"The court is giving them a chance."

"How many middle-class, wealthy, and aristocratic families in the world are willing to follow the imperial court? We will liquidate a group of them in the future."

"The imperial court's conscription is divided into three modes."

"One type is military households, and they have no choice but to go."

"One is mercenaries, buying people with money."

"One is the reserve force, which will only be used in national wars."

Chu Wujiang explained:

“We don’t necessarily have to use it, but we must be prepared and try to mobilize.”

"Of course, the recruitment of the army is still in progress. Whether they are citizens or refugees, the outstanding ones among them can also participate in this feast."

"At least we need to conduct military service training, expand the training at the Military Academy, and train qualified soldiers in advance."

Princess Qionghua couldn't help but say:
“Such upheaval would be huge.”

"To tell you the truth, General, the recent taxes on liquor and spiritual medicine have made the martial arts school disciples very dissatisfied. If..."

She was worried that the situation would go wrong.

Chu Wujiang smiled and said:
"The war is imminent, and everything is for the sake of war."

"As for the ability of various places to bear the pressure, it depends on the ability of the Prime Minister."

"But I have heard a saying."

"Let the army make money, the rest is unimportant."

This statement is a standard military statement, and is also consistent with Chu Wujiang's identity, but it is inconsistent with his usual gentle attitude.

He allowed for dissatisfaction from the middle class, the poor, and even the aristocratic families, and at the same time gave them two options.

Or join the army and become a distributor of the world's wealth.

Either become a menu and be slaughtered by this army.

What Chu Wujiang meant by this sentence was not to let the army do business.

Instead, the resources of the entire society are tilted towards the military, which becomes the backbone and the tool for controlling the operation of society, screening out its own iron plate, and then swallowing up other opponents.

The social structure in wartime must undergo corresponding changes.

Those who cannot adapt to change will perish.

Of course, this social war model is very harmful and is not conducive to economic and social development.

The Qin Dynasty's war machine collapsed on its own after defeating the six kingdoms, and ultimately the Qin Dynasty was killed and its country was destroyed, becoming a laughing stock of the world, proving the powerful side effects of this model.

But it is suitable for fighting.

Ever since Chu Wujiang realized that he was under siege by the four evil gods, the Dayong Dynasty, the Evil God's Court, and the Kingdom of Demons had joined forces, and there were also strong people in the Destiny Realm hiding.

Then he must be adequately prepared.

No amount of preparation is enough.

You can't win a racial war if you are tepid. Chu Wujiang can confidently destroy all the strong men in the Fate Realm, but he can't put the future of the human race on his own victory, that would be irresponsible.

As for ordinary people, the urban middle class, etc., the army will also be open to recruitment and absorb capable people.

This war will determine who is entitled to enjoy the future wealth.

Chu Wujiang simply would not exploit the wealth of civilians to strengthen the army. This was too inefficient and had huge side effects.

Of course, sometimes plans are beautiful but reality is cruel, which is common in human history. Chu Wujiang does not have the ability to control the situation yet, so he leaves it to the prince to complete.

Whether or not one is willing to drink the poison is the choice of the court.

Chu Wujiang finished explaining his policy again and asked again:
"Your Highness, do you have any questions?"

Princess Qionghua took a deep breath and said:
"Have."

"What exactly is the purpose of the general doing this?"

"These words are only for you and me."

"Whether we win or lose in such a war, the military power of the people will expand greatly, and if the imperial court is not careful, it will be shattered to pieces."

“The court has finally managed to detain the local forces, and there is a high possibility that new beasts will be released.”

"Can you tell me that it is just to strengthen the power of the Hero Army?"

"But doing so may not necessarily be a good thing."

A keen political sense.

Chu Wujiang showed an admiring look.

The fact that Princess Qionghua could perceive this is enough to prove that she is definitely not a vase.

Total mobilization is extremely harmful to the regime.

The outcome of World War I was the fall of crowns.

In order to cope with the world war, governments had to expand the source of officers, and the power originally held by the military aristocracy suddenly spread to civilians.

Deep-level mobilization will cause warriors to begin to awaken and try to demand corresponding power, which will usher in huge changes.

The imperial power itself is risk-averse. Repeated bargaining between the central government and local governments weakened the local military power, and ultimately the system was designed to prevent rebellion.

The Tianming Dynasty failed to achieve perfect control due to the constant presence of external threats, but the concept of imperial power was the same.

Total mobilization will untie these institutional chains and push the entire society into an unpredictable future.

Even if the Mandate of Heaven wins, there will be serious sequelae.

After World War I, many military strongmen came to power.

That's the obvious cost.

Chu Wujiang said meaningfully:
"If we cannot adapt to war, we will be eliminated by war."

"Your Highness, you think too much, which can sometimes be harmful."

"We have to deal with four evil gods and three dynasties. Isn't it a bit too extravagant to think about the future now?"

If you can't win the war, everything is fake.

Winning is everything.

Princess Qionghua took a deep breath.

She was convinced, but she still had one last question.

Princess Qionghua stared at Chu Wujiang and added:
"General, can I trust you?"

Chu Wujiang smiled and said:

"It is useless for me to show my loyalty."

"But Your Highness the Princess can learn about the construction of the Heroic Army and help Your Highness control the Tiankui Army."

"You should be confident then."

Princess Qionghua let out a long sigh and whispered:

"But I need more assurance."

“This is an exchange of interests.”

As soon as the voice fell, Princess Qionghua took the initiative to step forward and hugged Chu Wujiang. Chu Wujiang hurriedly said:
"Your Highness, please respect yourself."

Princess Qionghua looked at Chu Wujiang's serious expression and couldn't help but sneer:
"There are some advantages to being a woman."

"General, if there is any change in the world, I hope you can assist as regent."

“This is the princelings’ idea.”

Princess Qionghua was opposed to her elder brother's personal Northern Expedition, but her opposition was ineffective.

Then she must prepare for the future of the Prince Party.

Chu Wujiang pushed Princess Qionghua away and said seriously:

"Your Highness, this is wrong."

"How could I, a humble official who has received the emperor's grace, do such a treasonous act?"

"Please take back your order, Princess."

Regardless of whether Princess Qionghua was testing him or not, he would never agree to Chu Wujiang becoming regent and defending the prince's party.

So as not to disrupt the overall situation.

What's more, Chu Wujiang's ambition does not stop there.

Ah.

What a dishonest man.

Princess Qionghua also has certain selfish motives. The new generation of the Di family surrounds the prince in order to gain power from other vassal kings.

She accepted Chu Wujiang as regent as long as he didn't go any further.

As for Chu Wujiang's defeat and death, the world would collapse, so why should she think so much about it.

Bet on it.

Princess Qionghua chuckled and said:

"Then I'll put it another way. The princelings are willing to form a deeper alliance with the general."

"It would be good for the general, wouldn't it?"

"Moreover, the general will be highly commended for the strategy of integrating farming and fighting and conducting a total war."

You want to propose policies and then have the princelings bear all the consequences. This won't work.

We must all shoulder the responsibility together.

Fang Xiang, Zhenguo Gong, and Chu Wujiang all have to shoulder the responsibility of implementing the total war strategy.

The prince agreed to the policy, but he would not be so foolish as to do it alone.

He wants to tie everyone together to implement this policy.

Chu Wujiang smiled and said:

"It's a great honor for me."

Now that the other party has spoken out, there is no need to pretend any longer.

At this moment, Princess Qionghua relaxed her body and mind.

Do you say this is emotion?
Not to mention.

There is a little interest, a little desire, and a little goodwill.

That's it.

Similarly, she was sure that Chu Wujiang would not refuse.

The alliance between the two sides is stable and has a common basis of interests.

It is impossible for Chu Wujiang to rebel at this stage. In addition to pushing the human race into the abyss, he would also make enemies with the vassal kings of the world.

Hundreds of vassal kings across the country guard the imperial court.

Although the prince was determined to reduce the power of all the vassal kings, he had to admit that any ambitious person who wanted to seize the imperial family would be blocked by the various kings.

Princess Qionghua intends to complete this tightrope walking operation.

Then she understood the benefits of dual cultivation.

One is at the peak of Yuan Ling, and the other is a strong man at the half-step to destiny level.

The two parties are not on the same level, and Chu Wujiang can give her some enlightenment.

Princess Qionghua's advancement to the spiritual realm will allow her to better stabilize the rear and mobilize the power of the imperial court to destroy the royal court.

A huge amount of magic power poured into the princess' body. Her cheeks couldn't help but turn red. She asked repeatedly:

"General, you said you can't help people become perfect dollar gods."

Chu Wujiang chuckled and said:

"Shh, don't say that."

"Have you prepared the Dragon Essence Pill, Princess?"

Princess Qionghua nodded and said:
"It has been prepared for a long time."

Chu Wujiang nodded and said:

"Then I will help Her Royal Highness the Princess with her training."

The two sides were very close at this moment.

Princess Qionghua prepared three Dragon Yuan Immortal Pills and took them directly.

On this day, Princess Qionghua visited the Chu Mansion and received guidance from Marquis Guanjun. Within one day, she advanced to the level of a perfect soul.

The world was shocked.

Although Princess Qionghua was acting, she did not achieve perfect dollar godhood, but used this opportunity to tie Chu Wujiang to the chariot of the prince's party.

The prince took the opportunity to announce that the prelude to the Northern Expedition had begun.

Princess Qionghua will stay in Tianjing in his place to carry out reforms.

On the second day, the court unanimously agreed to implement general mobilization registration.

Newspaper sales soared again.

Later, some people commented that the world situation began to change dramatically, and the newspaper entered its golden age, with major news happening almost every day.

The newspapers were sold out.

The Tianming Dynasty finally bid farewell to the era of Emperor Hao. The seemingly stable society gradually disintegrated, and dark torrents continued to emerge in the world.

The pace of war is getting closer and closer.

Or it was on the verge of being officially launched. After a short rest, the heroic army began to march towards the northern defense line.

After garrisoning Tianjing for many years, the Tianming Army was mobilized to the north for the first time.

The evil god's court was constantly retreating, and took the opportunity to gather its troops, waiting for the human race to come and die.

……

Tianjing, Taoranju.

"My Lord, I have a favor to ask of you."

Chu Wujiang looked at Emperor Guangzhu and couldn't help asking:
"My Lord, you don't want to advance to the Dollar God as well, do you?"

"I have said before, this is all due to the strong magical power accumulated by Princess Qionghua herself, and has nothing to do with this Marquis."

He refused subconsciously.

Princess Qionghua has not yet completed her advancement to the Yuan God. Under the effect of the Dragon Yuan Immortal Pill, her compatibility has reached 95%, which is an excellent level, but far from enough.

According to common sense, Princess Qionghua would have to practice for at least another fifty years before she could hope to achieve the primordial spirit, let alone the dollar god.

But she couldn't wait that long, and needed to use the elixir to ripen it to prevent herself from being weak and powerless in the face of the great era.

This is also the reason why the peerless geniuses need to endure hard times.

There is a limit to using only the Dragon Yuan Elixir.

The Crown Prince, Fang Xiaoran and others took it in order to provide themselves with mana to make their breakthrough more perfect.

As a result, she cooperated with Chu Wujiang to deceive the whole world, which caused countless forces to come to her for requests.

As long as Chu Wujiang can help him advance to Dollar God, the price can be negotiated.

At first they considered female warriors, but then someone asked:
"It's OK for beautiful women, but can it be OK for beautiful men?"

This made Chu Wujiang close the door and refuse visitors.

Now that Di Guangzhu is visiting, Chu Wujiang naturally wants to see him. Di Guangzhu couldn't help but smile and said:

"Of course not, my Lord, you are worrying too much."

"I am still somewhat confident that I can advance to the realm of the Primordial Spirit."

"I just want to entrust sister Huimeng to the Marquis' Mansion to protect her safety."

As soon as Di Guangzhu finished speaking, a dream was about to sneak into the Chu family. Most of the powerful soul masters of the Chu family were unaware of it.

Chu Wujiang asked softly:
"Huimeng, go through the main entrance."

Hui Meng muttered a few words, and had to enter through the main gate obediently. She flew in front of Chu Wujiang and said in disbelief:
"Strange, I wanted to give Big Brother a surprise."

"Most of the souls haven't noticed it yet."

Chu Wujiang returned the remains of the dream tapir. These remains brought Huimeng great benefits. She buried the remains of her parents and siblings in a dream.

The nightmare tapir is a very magical creature.

Before they die, they will look for a compatriot, and then form a perfect dream in their sea of ​​consciousness, and wither and die in the dream.

A grand dream, a perfect death.

This is a dream burial.

Chu Wujiang returned the body, and Huimeng used the dream tapir's instincts to help the dream tapir clan complete the final dream burial.

The object of dream burial will pass on his or her bloodline and soul to the next generation.

Originally, this kind of inheritance was severely discounted.

Unexpectedly, Huimeng's soul control was unstable, and she only had half human blood. With the help of "Ten Thousand Demons Blood Nerve", her flesh and blood were completely fused, and her strength increased greatly.

So Huimeng appears very cheerful and naughty.

Chu Wujiang mobilized his spirit in a bad mood, knocked on Huimeng's head, and said unceremoniously:

"Because big brother is not an ordinary soul."

Then Chu Wujiang asked Di Guangzhu in confusion:
"Her strength is no less than that of an ordinary soul."

"Are you sure she needs protection?"

She protects you almost.

Emperor Guangzhu smiled and said:
"Huimeng is still young and sometimes likes to play pranks. She is not suitable for going to the battlefield."

"There are many experts in the Marquis' Mansion. I feel at ease leaving them with the Marquis."

Chu Wujiang nodded and said:

"Aren't you staying in the Tiankui Army?"

Emperor Guangzhu smiled and said:
"The young prince is worried that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will arrive too late. He will not feel at ease if he stays in Tianjing."

"Your Highness gives me two choices."

"One is heading to the Destiny Army, and the other is heading to the Hero Army."

Chu Wujiang asked:
"Which one do you choose?"

Emperor Guangzhu smiled and said:
"the second."

"So the little prince has to obey the Marquis's command again."
