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

Chapter 230: Living in the Palace, the Mighty Conqueror! (Subscribe, monthly ticket)

In the imperial capital of the Tiance Dynasty, with the ascension of Li Chen to the throne, the imperial capital became more and more prosperous.

This was also the best period in terms of politics, economy, culture, public opinion, and public security in the Tiance Dynasty in hundreds of years.

In the past, the officials in the imperial capital were timid and hesitant in doing things, as the imperial capital was full of dignitaries and royal families.

It’s different now. As long as you dare to write a memorial, Li Chen will handle it, and then public security will definitely be good.

As public security improves, residents have begun to vigorously develop various businesses with good security guarantees, so the area is thriving.

Everyone is looking forward to a better place.

The Crown Princess Yunshang must be the same. In this prosperous era, she doesn't want to be self-admiring.

She is so beautiful that she must want to wait for Li Chen to pick her, but there have been many twists and turns recently.

Originally, through his own efforts, he had gained Li Chen's recognition, and one could even see a look of approval in Li Chen's eyes.

She thought she could get promoted if she worked harder, but Li Chen left the imperial capital for the west expedition, and she could not see Li Chen to improve his favorability.

Yun Shang did not give up. She planned to build good relationships with the women in the harem during the time when Li Chen was away, so that she would have more opportunities to get close to Li Chen in the future.

The first person Yun Shang thought of was naturally Li Chen’s favorite sister Li Si Ning. She also knew Li Si Ning.

It was fine at the beginning. With her hard work, she won Li Sining's favor, but the good times didn't last long.

When the Queen Mother found out about this, she asked Li Sining to have less contact with Yun Shang.

After all, there have always been conflicts between the Queen Mother's family and the Yun family.

Li Sining naturally respects and fears the Queen Mother, and will most likely listen to her.

Yunchang's connection was broken.

But at this time, she met the eldest princess Li Xueying.

Li Xueying happened to have a conflict with the Queen Mother, and also had a certain status in the palace.

Yun Shang was actually not familiar with Li Xueying and had never even met her.

After all, when Yunchang came to the imperial capital, Li Xueying had already married and moved to the north.

But there is a saying that the enemy of my enemy is my friend.

After Li Xueying learned that Yunshang was targeted by the Queen Mother, their relationship began to improve.

Then Yunchang's chance of entering the palace began to increase.

At this time, Yun Shang actually saw a woman in the palace who she had never expected.

After seeing Yun Shang, the woman was so scared that she turned around and ran away.

But Yunshang grabbed her and started to question, "Aunt, why are you in the palace?"

The person Yun Shang accidentally met was her aunt Yun Yuehua, who was also the elder of Tianyan Divine Sect.

“Well, do you want to talk somewhere else?” Fairy Yuehua saw that she couldn’t escape, so she could only delay for a while.

Yun Shang nodded and followed Yun Yuehua to her palace.

This surprised Yun Shang so much, why did her aunt have a palace in the imperial palace?

Yun Yuehua was embarrassed to say it directly, so she just said that she was just accompanying Fairy Youlan.

Yunchang finally understood. The man I liked, I had gone through so much trouble to meet him, so how could my aunt give him to me for free?

Since she had acquaintances in the palace, Yun Shang naturally expressed her thoughts.

Yun Yuehua was shocked, but also said that she would help as much as possible.

In her opinion, without Yun Shang's help, she would never have met Li Chen.

After enjoying herself, Yun Yuehua will definitely help her niece. After all, it is not easy for her niece to be a widow.

You can't just block the dragon gate when you jump over it yourself.

With the help of her aunt, Yun Shang was overjoyed and felt that she was one step closer to entering the palace.

At this moment, Li Chen has arrived at the capital of the Sassanid Empire.

Li Chen rode on Longxiang Obsidian, wearing golden armor, and looked ahead.

Behind him was the mighty army of the Tiance Dynasty, with fluttering flags and swords and spears like a forest.

The sound of war horses' hooves echoed on the stone road, as if knocking on the hearts of every Sassanid citizen.

The air was filled with the smell of gunpowder and dust, but more of it was a depressing silence.

The capital of the Sassanid Empire, this once glorious city, now lies at his feet.

The walls of the royal capital tower into the clouds. They are built of huge stones and have intricate patterns carved on the surface. These patterns sparkle in the sun.

The Sassanid flag originally hung on the city wall has been taken down and replaced by the flag of the Tiance Dynasty. The flag flutters in the wind, announcing the arrival of a new era.

The city gates were wide open, and the people inside knelt on both sides of the road with their heads lowered, not daring to look directly into the eyes of the conqueror.

The streets are wide and straight, with tall stone buildings on both sides. Most of the roofs are domes or spires, covered with golden tiles, reflecting dazzling light.

The exterior walls of the buildings are inlaid with glazed tiles and painted pottery. In the middle of the street is a wide canal, with clear water flowing from the mountains outside the city and running through the entire city.

Most of the people wear loose robes in dark blue and dark red, which symbolize their beliefs and are also the local customs.

The men had scarves wrapped around their heads, while the women wore veils, their eyes beneath the veils filled with fear and anxiety.

The children hid behind their mother, secretly looking at this strange army, their eyes full of curiosity and fear.

The leader of this strange army has a kind of deterrence that can suppress the heaven and earth and rule the world forever.

Not only the common people, but even the dignitaries of the Sassanid Empire were very afraid.

They knew that their life and death depended on this person's thoughts.

As the victorious country, the army of the Tiance Dynasty naturally occupied this place.

The Sassanid Empire no longer exists, and how it will develop in the future depends on Li Chen's mood.

The Imperial Palace is located in the center of the city. It is a towering complex consisting of dozens of tall towers and spacious halls.

The outer walls of the palace are made of white marble, with fine relief carvings on the surface depicting the achievements of successive kings of the Sassanid dynasty, as well as some mythological scenes of the Sassanid dynasty.

The top of the palace is covered with a golden dome. In front of the main entrance is a wide square with a huge fire altar in the center.

Li Chen stopped his horse in front of the imperial palace and looked over the magnificent building. He was very satisfied. This would be one of his palaces in the future.

He dismounted and climbed the steps leading to the main entrance of the palace.

The steps are paved with black marble, and each step is carved with delicate patterns, symbolizing the supremacy of royal power.

Li Chen's steps were steady, and every step seemed to be striking at the last nerve of this ancient dynasty.

The generals of the Tiance Dynasty behind him all had a feeling that wherever Li Chen stepped on was no longer the Sassanid Empire, but belonged to the Tiance Dynasty, and it was already their territory.

The person who was closer to Li Chen was naturally the deputy commander-in-chief of the three armies, Guo Poyun.

With his prestige and status in the Tiance Dynasty, as well as his contributions in this Western Expedition, he would definitely be able to stand behind Li Chen. Walking side by side with Guo Poyun was Li Ji.

Even though Li Ji did not make many military achievements in this national war, don't forget his identity. He is a prince, Li Chen's brother, and a person of very high status in the royal family.

Therefore, with his identity and status, and the fact that he had participated in the Western Expedition and became a general, he could be on par with Guo Poyun.

Everyone can understand this, but many people don't understand, who is behind Li Ji? Is this guy qualified to be with the generals? And he seems to be blind. Did he show up in the Western Expedition?

In fact, this person is Li Ran. Li Ran has changed from his previous flamboyant self and is now very low-key, so low-key that no one knows who he is except those who know him.

His identity also began to become mysterious.

The next ones were naturally the young generals Xu Zifeng and Liu Hao. Liu Hao was naturally very excited, as he had contributed to the expansion of the Tiance Dynasty.

Xu Zifeng was more indifferent, without much expression.

Among them, Li Ling and Chen Xuannan were also present, but they were also very low-key. After all, Prince Li Yang of Jing'an had caused such a big trouble, it was good enough for them to come to the Western Expedition. How could they dare to take credit like Liu Hao did.

After Li Chen entered the magnificent palace, he saw some familiar figures.

The nine saints of the Tiance Dynasty have been waiting here for a long time.

In addition, there were Queen Elisa and the Sassanid nobles and officials kneeling on the ground.

Alyssa looked a little weak, as if she couldn’t even stand steadily.

There is no way around it as we have been hit hard recently.

She looked at Li Chen with resentment, and no one knew what she was thinking.

Li Chen naturally sat directly on the throne. This was the third throne he had sat on, and his desire to conquer was simply overflowing.

In fact, before Li Chen came, True Man Chi Yuan, Venerable Qingxu and Tianzun Biluo were all very excited. They never expected that one day they would be able to come to the palace of another country.

Seeing the inexperienced look on Master Chiyuan's face, his old rival Master Wanfeng said that he was a country bumpkin.

And he began to brag about how 'back then' His Majesty and I broke into the Holy Mountain City of the Royal Court.

The two of us started killing people indiscriminately.

Meeting Li Chen early is also enough to brag about.

But Master Wanfeng did not say who was the one who did the killing and who was the one who was killing indiscriminately.

When True Man Chi Yuan heard this, he retorted sarcastically. He immediately said that His Majesty Li Chen was so powerful that he could kill his way through the Holy Mountain City even with a dog.

Master Wanfeng immediately became furious and said, "I have made great contributions in the north, why are you yelling at me?"

Seeing that the two of them were about to fight, the next step was for everyone to separate them and persuade them to say less. If King Li Chen came and saw you two losing your composure, he would definitely be very angry.

When it comes to Li Chen's name, the two of them become much more obedient. After all, this guy is someone they really can't afford to mess with.

In order to take care of Helan Xuan's feelings, Old Man Wu next to him was still explaining something. After all, Master Wanfeng kept talking about the Holy Mountain City.

Helan Xuan said it was okay, he also hated Shengshan City, mainly because he was dissatisfied with Tuoba Zhen.

As Li Chen sat on the throne, today's court meeting officially began.

In front of Li Chen, Alyssa is just a subject.

But she is Li Chen's woman now, and her status can be barely maintained.

It's the morning court now. Generally speaking, people of Liu Hao and Ma Hei's level are not qualified to attend, but today they are lucky enough to attend. They are extremely excited and nervous.

Liu Hao admired Li Ji who was standing in the front. He didn't expect Li Ji to be so steady along the way.

In fact, he underestimated Li Ji. Li Ji was a prince after all. He had attended court before, in the Tiance Dynasty, so he was not too nervous coming here.

Li Ji also handled the affairs of state very seriously. He did not have much experience in fighting wars, but the one who was better at this than him was naturally Li Ran behind him.

Li Ran still kept a low profile. When His Majesty Li Chen didn't need him, he would not take the initiative to recommend himself.

He always felt that Li Chen brought him here this time to test him. If he lost his temper, became impetuous, and ignored everything for revenge, then he would have no chance in the future.

In fact, it was not a big deal. It was just a strike against some stubborn forces of the Sassanid Empire, and then the management of the Sassanid Empire, the division of regions, etc.

It is worth mentioning that at this court meeting, Guo Poyun reported to Prime Minister Zhao Wenyuan who was not present.

Because Zhao Wenyuan didn't expect Li Chen to be able to fight so quickly. He thought it would be like in the north, slowly conquering cities and territories, so that he could gradually send officials to manage.

This is the duty of the prime minister.

In addition, Zhao Wenyuan is also responsible for the construction of train tracks recently, which is a heavy task, so we are not prepared here.

So Guo Poyun reported him for dereliction of duty.

It is also one of those places where we finally catch our 'old rival' performing poorly.

What Guo Poyun didn't expect was that after he returned, Zhao Wenyuan reported him three times.

Li Chen also punished them accordingly, which was just a salary deduction and a warning.

There was no traitor like Huyanlan in the Sassanid Empire, and the four major families fought to the end.

Then, as Li Chen's woman, Elisa was naturally pulled up by Li Chen to continue handling the political affairs of the Sassanid region.

At first, Alyssa was reluctant and said that she wanted to lie down in Li Chen's harem.

It seems that this woman is not interested in government affairs either.

As a result, Li Chen took her back to the room and gave her a severe beating, so that she would never dare to talk back again and would work for Li Chen obediently.

As the new emperor here, Li Chen naturally has to begin to sympathize with the people.

Just like in the Sassanid palace, because Elisa was a woman, the beautiful and plump concubines in the palace were left idle.

Li Chen created jobs for them and began to get to know them one by one.

The women in the Sassanid region had a different feeling. Their skin was as delicate and smooth as ivory, and their cheeks were slightly flushed, like newly blooming rose petals, delicate and beautiful.

Their eyebrows and eyes are deep and charming, their pupils are like the blue waters of the Persian Gulf, clear and deep, with the tails of their eyes slightly upturned, bringing a hint of charm and mystery.

Her eyelashes are thick and long, and when she blinks, they tremble gently like a feather fan, as if they can touch people's hearts.

Their noses are high, with elegant lines and slightly upturned nose tips, which give them a hint of playfulness and agility.

The lips are not only plump, but also rosy and sweet.

Especially when you are happiest, it exudes a faint fragrance.

Those concubines with plump figures were favored by the emperor of the Tiance Dynasty.

Li Chen stayed here for more than a month and made careful selections.

The 216 concubines were given the opportunity to work in the imperial capital of the Tiance Dynasty, and they were very grateful.

In fact, the competition among them is very fierce in order to get this opportunity.

When leaving, Li Chen was a little reluctant to part with this enchantress Alyssa, but she still had government affairs to deal with. Before she found someone to replace her, Li Chen had to take her two cousins ​​and a younger sister with her to find the shadow of Alyssa in these people.

This made Alyssa speechless. She quickly dealt with state affairs within a month, and randomly found a sister that Li Chen had not taken away to be the empress. She couldn't wait to run to Li Chen's harem and lie down.
