I just reached the maximum level, and you want me to be a puppet emperor?

Chapter 212 I thought Li Chen was brave enough to let me go too! (Please subscribe and give me a monthly ticket)
When Li Sining was looking for someone everywhere, she met a stunningly beautiful girl of similar age with white hair and eyebrows.

Li Sining felt amazed at the first sight.

After communicating, Li Sining learned that this beautiful girl was called Wang Yueyao, she was very powerful and had a natural holy body.

She is the woman Li Chen rescued from the Wang family. Her mother can be said to be Li Chen's woman, but she is not yet.

Li Sining said at the time, it’s not a big deal. You have already moved into the palace, how could my brother let you go? It’s just that my brother has been too busy recently and doesn’t have much time to take care of you.

At Li Sining's invitation, Wang Yueyao also gladly participated in the practice of the Seven Absolute Meridians Array, which made her mother feel very happy. Her daughter was considered to be integrated into the palace, and it was estimated that it was only a matter of time before she became a concubine.

Wang Yueyao is a rather introverted person, but Li Sining is now a social celebrity.

When Li Chen came to perform at the Tianwu Arena, he saw these six stunning beauties practicing the meridian formation.

The pulse array is a way to gather everyone's energy through the resonance of the meridians, thus creating greater power.

You know, ordinary practitioners can't directly summon the phantom of the divine beast like Li Chen and Tuoba Zhen, because their energy is not enough to maintain it.

This is basically a move that can only be used independently by those at the Saint level.

But the meridian formation can do it, and it is also the trump card of many practitioners.

The army of the Tian Ce Dynasty had the Harmonious Pulse Formation. When it erupted, it was as if huge heavenly soldiers had descended from the sky, invincible!

Seeing Li Chen coming over, Li Si Ning said excitedly: "Brother, do you want to try out the power of our Seven Absolute Meridian Formation?"

Li Chen took a look and replied, "Sure, just come."

As he spoke, Li Chen came to the center of the Yantian Martial Arts Arena in full view of everyone.

The Queen Mother, Concubine Yi, Jiang Ningyue, Wang Yueyao's mother Luo Qimeng and more than ten beautiful women were watching nearby. Many of them had not seen Li Chen in action, but had only heard that Li Chen was very strong.

In addition, many palace maids and eunuchs were watching nearby. They were also very curious about the power of this emperor who was a legendary figure outside.

The stronger Wang Yueyao stood at the front. She bowed to Li Chen and said, "Your Majesty, I'm sorry."

Li Chen waved his hand to indicate that it was okay. It was no problem as he was just playing with his sister for a while.

At Li Chen's signal, the six stunning beauties burst out with their most powerful strength.

Because they knew that the man in front of them was the most powerful man in the Tiance Dynasty and there was no need to hold back.

They stimulated their meridians frantically, and Li Chen could even see glowing bodies.

For a moment, the wind was howling and the energy was surging!

The wind was so strong that people nearby couldn't open their eyes.

Li Chen took a quick look and nodded with satisfaction. It seemed that these women of his had good foundations.

The next second, as the meridian formation resonated, a majestic silhouette of a female swordsman appeared above the heads of the six of them.

This made the six of them ecstatic, because the resonance of the meridians requires a certain amount of time to adjust, and if they are not familiar with it, it will easily fail.

I didn’t expect to succeed right away on the first try.

The pulse formation has another advantage, which is that it perfectly solves the situation of different strengths within the team.

Li Si Ning's cultivation is very low now, but she can provide her own innate attributes, such as heavenly thunder and poison, and add these to the Sword Immortal's phantom. This will greatly increase the combat effectiveness of the Sword Immortal's phantom and catch the enemy off guard.

Low-level cultivators have many things to consider, and the meridian array is just one of them.

There are also magic weapon strength, attribute restraint, elixir replenishment, the strength of the opponent's meridians, etc. These are the key to victory.

People of Li Chen and Tuoba Zhen's level are not out of consideration. Just like in Holy Mountain City, if Tuoba Zhen was at his peak and Li Chen was weakened due to the terrain, Tuoba Zhen might be able to contend with Li Chen. Of course, it only means a little here.

In the Tianyan Martial Arts Field, when the women saw that the Female Sword Fairy had been formed, they began to continuously stimulate the arterial formation to increase the power of the Female Sword Fairy.

If Li Chen was at the same level as them, he should consider how to interrupt the opponent's spellcasting at this time, otherwise, the female sword fairy would become stronger and stronger.

But Li Chen just watched them quietly, waiting for them to finish casting the spell.

Following Wang Yueyao's light shout, a light flashed in the eyes of the female sword fairy's phantom, and a sword surrounded by lightning "materialized" in her hand, and even a cloak appeared behind her.

Li Chen really didn't know what the cloak was used for. It was a waste of a lot of energy, but in the eyes of women, it looked good.

This formation also received cheers and praise from many beautiful mature women nearby. It seems that women really like this.

When everything was ready, six beauties rushed over at changing pace.

And the majestic female sword fairy in the sky also rushed over with tremendous power.

The long sword in the female sword fairy's hand whistled and attacked Li Chen with the power of thunder.

The sound of the long sword breaking through the air was earth-shaking, and it scared the beautiful mature women nearby.

Some beautiful mature women have even begun to worry about Li Chen's safety, wondering if Wang Yueyao and the others have gone too far. What if Li Chen gets hurt?

Moreover, Li Chen was still standing still at this time, without even releasing any energy.

Just when they were thinking about it, Li Chen moved. He simply used a gesture of flicking the head and flicked the long sword at the phantom of the female sword fairy.

Bang!
There was a loud roar at the collision point, and the shadow of the female sword fairy and the sword in her hand were instantly shattered and disappeared without a trace.

Wang Yueyao and the other six beauties were also repelled by this powerful energy and flew away. They fell to the ground weakly, looking pitiful.

The beautiful mature women next to him were all dumbfounded. With such a powerful move, Li Chen solved it in the blink of an eye?
They all felt that Li Chen might not even be able to use one percent of his strength.

If Li Chen knew they were thinking this, he would definitely say: One percent? Do you want me to kill them?

Li Chen dismantled the female sword fairy's phantom with his bare hands, and he didn't even dare to release any energy, for fear of hurting them.

Li Si Ning rubbed her butt, stood up, and said unconvincedly: "Brother, our meridian formation is not complete yet, we are missing one person, you can find more concubines, so that I can make up seven, and I will definitely give you a surprise!"

When everyone heard this, they were shocked. Li Sining actually attributed the failure to the fact that Li Chen had too few concubines in his harem.

Li Chen also said that he would definitely work harder next time he goes out, but this time he still has to solve the current problem.

As he spoke, Li Chen walked over, picked up Wang Yueyao who was still sitting on the ground, and walked towards the harem.

Wang Yueyao is so timid now. Ever since she entered the palace, she knew that there might be such a day, but this day came too suddenly, and Li Chen did it in front of so many people.

She whispered, "Your Majesty, what are you doing?"

Li Chen chuckled and said, "I want to see if the hair on other parts of your body is white."

These words made Wang Yueyao so embarrassed that her whole body was shaking.

Wang Yueyao's mother Luo Qimeng also followed when she saw this. She knew how powerful Li Chen was. It was still early and her daughter would definitely not be able to withstand the pressure. She had to share some of the burden with her daughter.

The three of them left the Yantianwu arena just like that.

Li Si Ning originally planned to continue practicing, after all, there was only one person missing.

But as time passed, Li Sining felt that there were fewer and fewer people around her.

At the beginning, it was his aunt Jiang Ningyue, his aunt Xie Minjun and others who were summoned away by the palace maids.

As for where to go, Li Sining knew it but didn't say anything.

Soon after, Chu Ruoyan, Jiang Rong, Ning Xiaoxiao and other women were also taken away by the palace maids one after another.

Finally, Li Sining discovered that besides her, only the Queen Mother and Concubine Yi were still there.

The other girls had all left? My brother was too strong.

At least leave a few sisters to accompany me. It’s lonely for me to practice alone.

Then an even more horrifying scene appeared. The palace maid came again, and this time she came to the side of the empress dowager.

Li Sining discovered that the Queen Mother's body was trembling and her eyes were a little nervous.

But the maid said, "Your Majesty, it is getting dark now. The imperial kitchen has carefully prepared a banquet with a variety of delicacies, waiting for Your Majesty to come and enjoy them."

When the Queen Mother heard this, she was shocked.

I thought Li Chen was bold enough to let me go too.

The Queen Mother had been doting on Li Sining recently, so she invited Li Sining and Concubine Yi to have dinner together.

After all, the other women are probably with Li Chen.

Li Chen had just returned from a victorious battle, so he definitely had to enjoy himself.

In the past, there were not many harems and few variety shows.

There are many more games now, such as Russian roulette and blind guessing, which are very fun to play.

This is also Li Chen's ability to maintain harmonious relations among the women in the harem. After all, they face Li Chen's oppression together.

On the other side of the harem, Li Xueying was conducting unified training on more than one hundred women from the north, telling them the rules of the palace and how to satisfy Li Chen.

The reason she didn't show up just now was because the Queen Mother was there at the Tianwu Arena, and she really didn't like being with the Queen Mother.

It was still broad daylight, and Li Xueying felt that if Li Chen wanted to continue at night, he would definitely have to change a group. Then most of these women would definitely go by then.

Li Xueying has been working hard to make Li Chen more comfortable and is also doing her job as an aunt.

Although she is the eldest princess, she does not have as many followers as the empress dowager. She has no one to rely on in the imperial capital and can only cling to Li Chen.

The sons of fortune in the imperial capital are also preparing to start their work.

Xu Zifeng just woke up from his drunken stupor and realized it was already noon.

He was just about to go to the Ji family to find his mother and aunt, but he heard from the servants that someone was here to visit.

This made Xu Zifeng wonder, why did he have so many acquaintances in the capital?

As for enemies, he has quite a lot, but he doesn't have to hide his shortcomings recently and he hasn't caused any trouble.

"Where are they?" Xu Zifeng yawned.

"Already in the hall." the servant replied.

As he spoke, Xu Zifeng walked lazily to the hall and found that Liu Hao and Anxi King Li Ji were already there.

The two of them came up and started congratulating Xu Zifeng, leaving Xu Zifeng at a loss.

After asking, I found out that part of the list for the Western Expedition had already been announced at the morning court this morning. In any case, the important positions had already been arranged.

As expected, Xu Zifeng became the vanguard general again, and Liu Hao remained the vanguard deputy general.

The Vanguard Army is the unit that is most likely to make merit, so naturally they would come to congratulate Xu Zifeng.

Perhaps if other people got this position, they would feel that their ancestors were very lucky to be favored by the emperor.

When Xu Zifeng got this position, he thought: Is Li Chen crazy? Why did he let me go again?

During the last Northern Expedition, Xu Zifeng felt that he had been badly betrayed by Li Chen and had a deep hatred towards Li Chen.

But last time I participated in the spring collection and was selected for some unknown reason. Why did it happen this time?
Seeing Xu Zifeng's dazed look, Liu Hao thought he was flattered.

After all, Liu Hao was also envious. He worked so hard to get a position as a vanguard deputy general, while Xu Zifeng was just lying at home and was promoted to a vanguard general. How could that be possible?

If they were not of similar age, Liu Hao would have suspected that Xu Zifeng was Li Chen's biological son.

Otherwise, how could we be taken care of like this?

At the same time, Liu Hao came over in advance to say hello, meaning: buddy, you continue to have fun, I can do two jobs by myself.

Li Chen asked Anxi King Li Ji to make preparations and find someone to pass on experience to him.

He was basically not familiar with these generals of the Tiance Dynasty. He knew some of them, but these people might not know him.

So Li Ji thought of Liu Hao and Xu Zifeng, with whom he had been drinking last night. They were young generals who had won battles, so it would be good for them to learn some experience from them.

Just then he met Liu Hao who was looking for Xu Zifeng, so he followed him.

Now the three of them happened to be heading for the Western Expedition, and Li Ji thought they could have a conversation while they were at it.

But Xu Zifeng was in a bad mood now. He didn't want to communicate with them. He just wanted to go to the Ji family mansion as soon as possible. He responded with a few words casually and didn't even prepare any food.

They were also smart people and thought Xu Zifeng was busy, so they didn't stay long.

After leaving the Prince of Zhennan's Palace, Liu Hao also went to say hello to the other soldiers who were joining him on the Western Expedition.

After all, the Liu family was a family of meritorious service, and he knew many sons of military families. When he learned that Li Ji was also going to the Western Expedition, he took him with him.

Li Ji was extremely happy and was extremely grateful to Liu Hao.

What he lacks now is connections.

Anyone who wanted to take part in the Western Expedition had to report to the Ministry of War to confirm whether they could go and what their position would be.

Liu Hao and Li Ji visited some sons of military families. More than ten of them gathered for a meal and then came to the Ministry of War in a mighty procession.

Li Ji is a prince. As long as he does as Li Chen says and humbles himself to get along well with these people, these people will still recognize him.

After all, Li Ji was allowed to go by Li Chen himself, so these children of generals were also thinking that Li Ji might have a good relationship with Li Chen, and if he develops in the future, his ceiling will definitely be high.

Everyone is working in the court, and knowing one more person means one more way out.

In fact, few people dare to have a good relationship with Xu Zifeng, because everyone knows that his father is the King of Zhennan.

The reason why Liu Hao dared to go was just to encourage Xu Zifeng to continue to wander.

When we arrived at the Ministry of War, we found that this was Wu Qi's "territory".

Liu Hao just wanted to stop by and say hello to Wu Qi, but he found out that Wu Qi had actually been promoted to Deputy Director of the Ministry of War, which scared Liu Hao a lot.

The Yuanwailang of the Ministry of War was a middle-level cadre in the Ministry of War, responsible for reviewing the military officers' letters of dismissal, books, qualifications, examinations and other matters.

In other words, unless Li Chen personally appoints someone, whether others are qualified to go on the Western Expedition must be assessed by Wu Qi and his subordinates.

An official like Wu Qi holds real power in the Ministry of War, which surprises Liu Hao and Li Ji.

"You got promoted secretly, why didn't you tell us so we could have a banquet for you?"

"Yeah, that's really not nice of you. That's not what you said when we were drinking last time."

Hearing what Liu Hao and Li Ji said, Wu Qi couldn't help but smile slightly.

"I just received the appointment notice this morning. Although we are all acquaintances, I still have to handle it impartially."

Wu Qi was too embarrassed to say that his aunt was a royal consort and his grandfather was a saint.

Anyway, I worked very hard!
Now that he had the position, Wu Qi gave priority to processing the formalities for Liu Hao, Li Ji, and the military sons brought by Liu Hao.

These guys have already made plans to go out for drinks tonight.

Which son of a military family doesn't want to please the officials of the Ministry of War?

Even though the officials of the Ministry of War only work in the court and do not go out to fight,

But the problem is that they are in charge of the distribution of materials and the transfer of personnel, and they have great power.

After completing the formalities, Wu Qishun said, "Didn't Xu Zifeng come?"

Because Xu Zifeng was personally selected by Li Chen on the list, he just needed to come over and there was no need for a troublesome review.

Moreover, if Xu Zifeng didn't come, the people from the Ministry of War would have to find him and confirm with him the reason why he didn't come.

General Guo Poyun was anxiously preparing to go on the Western Expedition, and time could not be delayed any longer.

In fact, he wanted to go after the morning court session, but the soldiers and generals had not yet gathered.

"Oh, he has something else to do, so he will probably be here soon." Liu Hao said casually.

At the same time, Xu Zifeng had already arrived at the Ji family mansion.

The people of the Ji family were also very polite when they saw Xu Zifeng. After all, he was the young master of the Ji family.

Unlike the depressed situation in the past, many people from the Ji family have now returned to develop, especially after Li Chen's great victory in the north, more and more people have come.

As a professional fence-sitter, you can't always be tied to one tree.

Princess Zhennan and Ji Lianyu were of course at the Ji family at this point, but Xu Zifeng felt that they did not seem to sleep well. But for some reason, he felt that his mother and aunt's faces were becoming more and more rosy.

Now is not the time to think about this. When his mother and aunt came over, Xu Zifeng said hurriedly, "Oh no, Li Chen has inexplicably asked me to be the vanguard general again. I think there is something fishy going on. Otherwise, let's leave the imperial capital as soon as possible!"

Hearing what he said, Princess Zhennan and Ji Lianyu looked at each other and smiles appeared on their faces.

Princess Zhennan: "My dear son, if His Majesty asks you to go, just go. The army of the Tiance Dynasty is mighty, you just need to get some military merits. I believe my son has the ability to do this."

Ji Lianyu: "This is an opportunity that others would love to have. Don't you know that your mother went to ask the Queen Mother to get you this opportunity?"

She almost said, "Your mother tried so hard last night," but finally changed the subject and gave the credit to the Queen Mother.

Seeing that Xu Zifeng was a little confused, Princess Zhennan and Ji Lianyu kept persuading him, saying that we can't go back to the south now, so if you make more military achievements here, your mother and aunt will be safer.

As long as Princess Zhennan doesn't plan to go back, Xu Zifeng really has no choice.

He could only think that his father should have no problem dealing with the Third Prince Li Yu.

Under the persuasion of the two women, Xu Zifeng, the man of destiny, had to continue to participate in the Western Expedition.

Since he was going, he must bring his good helper Ma Hei with him.

Ma Hei was the one who had been to jail and visited the snow-capped mountains with him.

The relationship between the two can be said to be very close.

Ma He was very busy yesterday. Just after he finished his work today, he heard Xu Zifeng say that they were going to participate in the Western Expedition to conquer the Sassanid Empire.

Ma He was a little confused at this moment. He thought to himself: Didn’t the Holy Lord ask me to come here to help you and your father, the Prince of Zhennan, in a rebellion? Why have we been helping the Tiance Dynasty fight wars?
If you and your son hadn't rebelled again, I, Ma Hei, would have contributed a lot to the eternal hegemony of the Tiance Dynasty!
