Chapter 2326. The Usurpation System 4
After confirming that there were no problems, Han Zifeng continued the reverse slaughter. This time, the Xi family army on the border was much more reliable, so when the two sides met, they were obviously much more reliable than the army on the Min Kingdom's side.
So, they met around the middle. Zi Feng commented, "You professionals are more reliable. Alright, you handle the follow-up." After agreeing, Zi Feng tallied up the situation around them, then took the newly written memorials and went back to hand them over to the Fifth Prince.
She calmly said, "I'll write everything about what happened over there here. You can read it yourself. I can finally rest for a while."
Zi Feng happily fed the golden dragon the fortune she had gained from the Myriad Souls Banner, causing the dragon to grow several times its original size. Zi Feng was very satisfied; this golden dragon was truly blessed.
At this moment, the one trembling the most was undoubtedly the usurpation system. What was this about dominating a region and then directly annihilating two countries? This was simply too much!
However, it was helpless in the face of its eager little host; it couldn't control this little host either. After resting for a few days, Zi Feng sent another message to the three new emperors. It was alright; although the other two didn't seem very reliable, they were somewhat dependable in crucial moments.
After the three strongest nations were annexed, the surrounding smaller states immediately submitted without hesitation. After all, they all knew that the royal families of Ru and Min had been completely wiped out by the last bloodline of the Duke of Zhenguo's family. If they didn't quickly come to show their loyalty, they risked becoming the next target.
So when Zifeng saw the large pilgrimage group arriving in droves, she asked her maid Xiaocui curiously, "What's going on? Why is it suddenly so lively?"
Xiao Cui said speechlessly, "No, no, it's because you slaughtered the other two countries and scared all the surrounding small countries. That's why they've come to surrender?"
Zi Feng was speechless, rolled her eyes, and complained: "Surrendering is useless. If they want to control the fate of the country, they will eventually become ordinary people themselves."
Xiao Cui's eyes darkened for a moment. Taking advantage of Zi Feng's inattention, she suddenly produced a dagger and stabbed it at Zi Feng. Zi Feng stared at Xiao Cui speechlessly. At that moment, the dagger in Xiao Cui's hand sparked a string of sparks as it grazed Zi Feng's body.
Zi Feng, speechless, flicked Xiao Cui away with her snake tail before leisurely walking out. The Imperial Guards of the capital had already captured Xiao Cui, and the Emperor, having heard the eunuch's report, also rushed over.
He looked at Xiao Cui and asked, "Hey girl, what's going on?"
Zi Feng shrugged: "Why don't you ask which country it's from?" The Fifth Prince, You Lan, was speechless and waved for the Imperial Guards to interrogate him. Zi Feng asked curiously, "So, now think about it: do you want the nation's destiny, or do you want balance? Think about it now."
Youlan calmly said, "Do it your way; their national destiny is more important."
Zi Feng nodded and said, "Hmm, he's starting to look like an emperor." However, she also happily joined these surrendered fellows in the palace banquet. To be honest, compared to what Zi Feng remembered, this palace banquet emphasized harmony above all else.
Aside from a few rather clueless individuals causing trouble at the entrance, the atmosphere was relatively harmonious. What left Zi Feng speechless was that a man was actually using her name to freeload at the palace banquet. Zi Feng racked her brains for a while before finally asking the imperial guards beside her, "Um, does anyone here know this guy?"
Imperial Guard Li Yi said speechlessly, "It seems to be your fiancé."
Zifeng asked curiously, "Who made the decision?"
Li Yi said speechlessly, "Didn't you choose it yourself?"
Zi Feng was puzzled. Looking at the man in front of her, who seemed like a refined scoundrel, Zi Feng remained silent for a long time, scratching her head repeatedly. Finally, she said to Li Yi, "Drag him to a secluded place. I'll personally chop him up later."
Li Yi was speechless, but still ordered someone to drag the scholar away. Zi Feng followed and came to everyone's corner. He took out the Ten Thousand Soul Banner and stabbed it in the guy's chest. He made a hand seal, and soon the guy was just bones.
Zi Feng calmly put away the banner and cheerfully continued attending the palace banquet. She thought to herself, "This scholar is truly a refined scoundrel, but he has quite the luck." Zi Feng strolled over to You Lan and said, "Was I really that blind before?"
Youlan was speechless: "Why do you ask that?"
Zi Feng replied, "My so-called fiancé, what a piece of trash. He's full of bad luck, a refined scoundrel who's never done anything good. But he's really lucky; he can feed Little Dragon again when he gets back."
You Lan's lips twitched slightly; this person seemed to possess considerable luck. He still asked, "Is he that powerful?"
Zi Feng nodded: "Just think of him as a male prostitute. He rose to the position of prime minister step by step by relying on women. How could his luck be lacking? However, if his character is flawed, he can easily ruin his overall luck. Speaking of which, in the future, when the Golden Dragon attacks someone, it will clearly tell you to kill that person. Don't hesitate, it will definitely ruin your luck, just like this kid."
Youlan asked curiously, "How did you determine that?"
Zi Feng replied, "In my eyes, that guy is a gold-plated black man, with bloodlust on him. He's definitely got three lives on him. Now that you're the emperor, besides testing your academic abilities, you also need to put your character on the agenda." You Lan nodded. The rest of the palace banquet was basically conducted in a conventional manner. Then, the inevitable scandalous incident at the palace banquet occurred, this time involving the daughter of the Marquis of Anju and a groom.
Zi Feng followed You Lan here, and upon seeing this place, she immediately revealed her astonishing thoughts. Zi Feng asked curiously, "Even low-ranking officials can't get in here, this stable boy is quite something!"
Youlan rolled her eyes and retorted, "That's not the point."
Zi Feng retorted, "No, no, no, this is the key point. Either it means someone is colluding with them from the inside, or it means that the Imperial Guards here are all useless, not even as good as grooms. Although it doesn't prove whether Miss is innocent or not, at least this is not a normal event."
Youlan was speechless, and the other families who came with her were even more speechless. Zifeng looked at the cause and effect between the two and said, "Oh, the coachman is innocent. He was knocked unconscious, given medicine, and dumped here. But this young lady was originally the instigator, trying to frame her older sister, but her older sister turned the tables on her."
At this point, Zifeng pointed to a woman who bore almost no resemblance to this woman, and looked at Youlan again, asking, "Do you want a concubine? Although this woman is not favored by the mistress of the house, she is suitable for you to take back as a mascot."
Youlan asked softly, "What is she?"
Zi Feng slapped him on the head without hesitation: "What are you thinking? She's a person, a proper, innocent, human."
Youlan asked speechlessly, "Is this young lady lucky?"
