City Supreme Heavenly Emperor

Chapter 526 The Phoenix and the Minion

Fu Cheng watched Nalan Qingcheng grow up - from a baby girl, to a girl, to a young girl.

At the beginning, according to the requirements of Emperor Ziwei and the Lotus Maiden, Fu Cheng trained Nalan Qingcheng as an emperor.

Now, when Nalan Qingcheng really became His Majesty the Empress, Fu Cheng couldn't help feeling a little dazed.

Nalan Qingcheng stood on the hall with his hands behind his back, looking down at Fu Cheng, His Highness, with a sense of oppression in his eyes.

Fu Cheng suddenly came to his senses, and bowed to Nalan Qingcheng: "My minister sees Your Majesty!"

Nalan Qingcheng sat on the dragon chair first, and then said flatly: "Fu Aiqing don't need to be polite, give me a seat!"

A condescending "gift" is tantamount to actively digging an invisible gap between her and Fu Cheng.

Fu Cheng said in a low voice: "Thank you, Your Majesty!" However, his movements were obviously a little dull.

Nalan Qingcheng said: "Fu Aiqing, when you were my teacher, you once taught me the way of the emperor. At that time you said: 'The way of the emperor is the most important thing to check and balance'. That is to say, let the officials and generals Between them, check each other to prevent one person from dominating. What do you think about the current situation in the Haohai Nine Realms?"

Fu Cheng thought for a while, and said carefully, "I want to report to Your Majesty: Today, the army in the capital is led by General Wu, and it has become a trend that cannot be lost. Your Majesty should gradually reduce its military power. However, you can't act too hastily, and changes will happen if you are anxious." .”

Nalan Qingcheng said: "I have already summoned General Wu and ordered him to hand over his military power at the court tomorrow morning."

Fu Cheng was shocked, and stood up suddenly: "Your Majesty, prevent General Wu from jumping over the wall in a hurry!"

"In the face of the supreme power of the phoenix, how dare a running dog jump over the wall? The only thing we can do is wait for death!" Nalan Qingcheng's tone was firm, as if he regarded himself as a phoenix.

Fu Cheng couldn't help being a little distracted: Did Nalan Qingcheng really think he was a phoenix?
Fu Cheng changed his mind and thought again: In the eyes of Nalan Qingcheng, is he also her running dog?
Nalan Qingcheng's words interrupted Fu Cheng's thoughts: "Fu Aiqing, I am very aware of your ability. From now on, I need your loyalty!"

Fu Cheng was startled into a cold sweat, and immediately knelt down: "I will swear allegiance to Your Majesty to the death! I will go through fire and water, and I will die!"

Nalan Qingcheng cherishes words like gold: "Stand aside!"

In front of Fu Cheng, Nalan Qingcheng summoned Wang Tao, one of the four lieutenants under General Wu Da.

Among the four lieutenants of General Wu Da, Wang Tao has the lowest qualifications and the worst ability. Moreover, Wang Tao is very disorderly in life.

However, even though Wang Tao was very disrespectful, facing the beautiful and beautiful Empress, Wang Tao did not dare to have the slightest thought. He immediately knelt down and said respectfully: "My minister pays homage to Your Majesty!"

Nalan Qingcheng's voice was cold: "Wang Aiqing, let me ask you: are you loyal to General Wu, or to me?"

Wang Tao broke out in a cold sweat, and immediately kowtowed, with bangs and bangs: "The humble minister is naturally loyal to His Majesty!"

Nalan Qingcheng's voice was like the wind from a snowy peak, ethereal and cold: "Wang Aiqing, in my eyes, you are no different from General Wu, you are my lackey!"

The words were originally insulting, but when Nalan Qingcheng said them, they were full of energy, as if what she said were the most basic facts and principles in the world.

Wang Tao's voice was like cursing and swearing: "This minister is one of His Majesty's lackeys, and if His Majesty asks this minister to bite anyone, this minister will bite anyone, no matter who he is!"

Nalan Qingcheng was very satisfied with Wang Tao's answer. She laughed like a silver bell: "Wang Aiqing, you are very smart, and you have lived up to my expectations! Go home and stay well. You will be promoted tomorrow." of!"

Wang Tao was overjoyed, and kowtowed to Nalan Qingcheng, with a bang bang sound: "Your Majesty Long En, even if the humble minister is smashed to pieces, it's hard to report it!" Then he sobbed.

After Wang Tao withdrew, Nalan Qingcheng widened her extremely clear and beautiful red phoenix eyes, and looked at Fu Cheng: "Does Fu Aiqing understand my intention?"

"Your Majesty is born wise and powerful!" Fu Cheng couldn't help flattering his former female disciple, saying, "Among the four lieutenants of General Wu, Wang Tao has the lowest qualifications, the lowest ability, and the worst reputation. But However, His Majesty only promoted Wang Tao! In this way, conflicts were created between General Wu and his four confidants! They made them wary of each other."

……

The news that Wang Tao was summoned by Nalan Qingcheng spread quickly.

The other three lieutenants urgently gathered at General Wu's house.

Vice General Zhou said bitterly: "After Wang Tao was summoned by His Majesty, he closed the door to thank the guests. I sent someone to inform him to gather at the General's mansion, but he couldn't excuse his illness! It seems that in his eyes, only His Majesty, no General!"

General Wu closed his eyes tightly and did not speak.

Vice-General Wu said: "General, if Your Majesty is against you, the three of us will definitely obey your call!"

Vice-General Sun echoed: "The three of us were single-handedly picked up by the General, and we only have the General in our eyes!"

General Wu opened his eyes and reprimanded sharply: "Do you want to rebel?"

The three lieutenants fell silent.

In fact, in the dictionary of General Wu, there has never been loyalty at all.

Back then, under the lure of the eldest princess Dugu Yulan's beauty, he betrayed His Royal Highness King Qi who promoted him, and supported Emperor Ziwei to ascend the throne.

When Emperor Ziwei was forced to pass to Nalan Qingcheng, General Wu unequivocally supported Nalan Qingcheng's ascension to the throne, so that the opposing forces did not form a climate.General Wu's move is of course his allegiance to His Majesty the Empress, but to Emperor Ziwei, is it not a kind of betrayal?
However, at this moment, General Wu had no intention of betraying Nalan Qingcheng.

The reason, of course, was fear of Nalan Qingcheng's ruthlessness, but more, he got the news: his biological daughter, Wang Qin, had just been summoned into the palace by Nalan Qingcheng.

Wang Qin is the only flesh and blood of General Wu, and he is also the person that General Wu feels the most sorry for!
Nalan Qingcheng proposed to let Wang Qin be the saint of the Hall of Cultivation, which immediately hit the weakness of General Wu's heart!
You must know that in the Nine Realms of Haohai, the saint and the emperor are called "two saints", both of which are supreme existences.

Today, Nalan Qingcheng is both the emperor and the saint, but she has promised General Wu that in a few years, she will pass on the position of saint to Wang Qin.

General Wu could not resist this temptation!In order to make Wang Qin a quasi-saint, General Wu decided to hand over the military power smoothly!
……

Wang Qin was led to Nalan Qingcheng by the palace maid, knelt down and kowtowed: "Minister kowtows to Your Majesty!"

Nalan Qingcheng repelled the maid and said to Wang Qin: "Miss Wang, raise your head and look at me!"

Wang Qin raised his head.

Since Nalan Qingcheng came to the throne, Wang Qin has become visibly thinner, her pretty face visibly haggard.

After seeing Nalan Qingcheng's face clearly, Wang Qin's eyes dimmed.
