Beasts become gods

Chapter 292 Mad King Luo Yu

In the midsummer of the 235th year of the Jialuo Empire, the imperial court was in turmoil. Rumors spread in the Yongyao capital. Remonstrances and accusations were prevalent. The Jialuo Emperor Luochen was furious. He launched a top-to-bottom investigation into parties, clans, and those who formed factions for personal gain.

Beheading people and cutting off their hands in a bustling bustling city. Such cruel acts made the people in Yongyao City feel physically and mentally cold, and they did not dare to discuss state affairs indiscriminately.

Those who have taken bribes and violated the law are so frightened that they cannot sleep well at night. The doors of their houses are closed tightly and they dare not light candles, for fear that they will be the next ones to have their homes ransacked. The gentle and virtuous people have not relaxed their vigilance either. The good ministers who have been arrested in recent days

There were many respectful generals, and all the virtuous ministers saw the tragic situation of being framed and wrongly accused by treacherous ministers, which became a trend for a while, and they were arrested and beheaded in the street.

The current situation is that dog bites dog among civil and military officials. The officialdom of the imperial court is complex. No matter how clean and honest there are, there will always be people who take advantage of their positions to do things conveniently. Every morning is like a grand debate meeting. You sing and I come on stage. It is lively.

Extraordinary, compared to the alleys and the common people selling vegetables in the market, it was noisier.

Luo Chen was sitting on the throne and took the strong tea from the eunuch's hand. The tea had been tested for poison and confirmed that it had zero additives and was pollution-free. It would be okay to drink it. Luo Chen took a sip of the cup with relief and his eyes wandered.

The officials who were biting each other in the court, their eyes rolling, seemed to have an idea.

Blowing the tea foam, Luo Chen felt disgusted, put the tea cup aside and spoke softly.

"There should be no tea stains in my tea from now on, only tea soup, do you understand?"

"The slave's crime deserves death, and the slave knows his crime!"

Luo Chen raised his eyebrows lightly, a faint smile appeared on his face, and said slowly.

"It doesn't matter. You don't need to be afraid of me like a tiger. You are my most convenient slave. Put the teacup aside and watch this farce with me."

"Slave obeys!"

Looking at the officials in the court hall, all the officials were red-faced and hysterical. They were obviously wearing official uniforms, but they all looked like barking wolf dogs, spitting and spitting. They had no image of the past. What's more, some of them were hoarse, their throats were hoarse, and they couldn't make a sound.

Officials in the court, big and small, are all quick-thinking and well-informed people. They are already familiar with how to deal with their opponents when they are caught. The opponent's information has also been purchased at a high price through Baixiao Pavilion. No one cares about the local people's sentiments.

, on the contrary, the officials kept arguing with each other, and a lot of gossip was revealed, which made Luo Chen fascinated. It was even more exciting than the delicious food.

In this world without mobile phones, TV, and the Internet, Luo Chen was almost exhausted. He finally found out about the gossip among officials. This made him feel particularly excited, and he never tired of learning the latest news every day.

The rumors made him ecstatic.

Baixiao Pavilion looks like an intelligence agency in the Lingwu world, but in fact it belongs to the royal family. Now it is controlled by Jia Luo Di Luo Chen, who collects and sells intelligence, and the money obtained expands the national treasury. This time, the officials exposed the chaos reported.

Scraping away the oil and water accumulated by hundreds of officials in the past, filling the national treasury and alleviating the losses caused by the war in recent years. It can also take advantage of this opportunity to drag out and kill officials who dislike it. It achieves multiple things with one stone and makes Luo Chen very happy.

It hit Garuda's careful finger.

"It turns out that Master Chen's youngest daughter has an affair with the second son of the Wang family. It's a pity that the Chen family's young lady is going to marry Gong Si, the youngest in the family. However, the Chen family's young lady is pregnant. Wouldn't that be...

The youngest of the Gong family is happy to be a father? Hahahaha, the old Wang next door is so wonderful!"

"The Jiang family is quite upright. Chief Jiang is quite handsome, but unfortunately his wife is ugly and cannot live in a refined society. It is not advisable to beat the couple, nor is it appropriate for the couple to reconcile... Well, let me choose another one.

I am a sweet-looking young lady who is promised to marry Jiang Sitong. Her talent and beauty will definitely make her a perfect match. It would be best if she gives birth to several children. I must improve my appearance!"

There has been quite a lot of explosive information in recent times. Luo Chen was so thirsty for knowledge that he had not slept well these past few nights. If the Fifth Army Commander's Office had not informed him that the treasury was full, it would be enough to cope with any subsequent war.

, Luo Chen also wants to continue to uncover the many secrets of civil and military officials. The children of these aristocratic families are really crazy about men and women, even worse than in the TV series. They can really be excerpted one by one and copied into "Yong Yao Zhi Yi"

, write hundreds of stories without repeating them.

"To report to my emperor, I have something important to report to you!"

A dull voice resounded through the court, and the red-faced ministers were at a loss for a moment. With their flushed necks, they turned to look at the Minister of War, Qian Jin, who had already stepped to the front. Qian Jin, an old and frail Minister, staggered in his steps.

But his eyes were extremely firm, and his withered skin could not hide his determination. Those piercing eyes were in sharp contrast with his figure. He was stooped but still insisted on holding up his chest, and his hands had a total of nine

The spirit knot was shining with a little light.

"What do you have to report to Minister Qian? Come and give me a seat!"

"yes."

The four eunuchs carried the chairs and moved them behind Qian Jin. They wanted to step forward to help him, but Qian Jin pushed him away with a flick of his sleeves. His disgusted eyes were unconcealed. He was so stubborn that it was difficult for him to allow the eunuchs to get close to him. He had been in the military for decades.

What I dislike most are these sissy people who have lost three legs.

The eunuchs were sensible, and when they saw the loyal ministers acting coyly, the emperor could not show his displeasure, so he suppressed his desire to make a fuss and left the court. Qian Jin bowed and thanked Emperor Jialuo, then sat down on the chair, as if

He used all his strength.

"Your Majesty, I have been in the army for decades and have fought in no less than a thousand battles. I dare not take credit and be proud of myself. I only want to ask for a military order from my emperor to set the record straight!"

"Oh? Why did Qian Shangshu ask for the Eagle Talisman of the Five Armies?"

"Commander Lu of the northern border army has been missing for more than a month and there is still no news. The morale of the troops in the northern border is disorganized. The three battalion commanders are still inexperienced and it is difficult to convince the public. The country cannot live without a king, and the army cannot live without a commander. Your Majesty, please choose

A good general of the empire, go to the north to take charge of the overall situation, help the country, and guard the borders for the empire!"

"Lu Xulei commanded the army in the northern border but joined forces with the people of Danzong. He had ulterior motives and was afraid of being disloyal. However, today there is no news. As a result, the three armies in the northern border are in danger of mutiny. It is really useless!"

"Had I known his character, I should have withdrawn this person's military power as soon as possible and sent a brave general from the imperial court to guard the northern border. This would not have resulted in more than half of the ice crystal snow demon tribe being killed or injured!"

The civil and military officials were full of emotion and excitement. They made constant sarcastic remarks with angry and harsh tones. They were all so excited that they seemed to wish they could play in person, degrading Lu Xulei to the point where he was useless.

Luo Chen smiled at the heated debate among the officials, who all criticized Lu Xulei for his failure in commanding the army. He had already expected this and had planned it carefully. He just wanted to see who among the civil and military officials could understand the Holy Spirit.

If you wish, make a suggestion first, and then wait for the right time to add a few words to facilitate the dispatch of the general.

When Wu Tianmou saw that the arguments among the ministers had subsided, he took a step forward, bowed his head in salute, and hung his arms in front of his chest. His humble posture made people dare not lie. The whispering stopped suddenly, and everyone's eyes stayed on Wu Tianmou.

"What does Wu Aiqing have to say?"

"Your Majesty, what Qian Shangshu said is true. The northern border has gone through many hardships, and there are less than 40% of the existing soldiers. Brigadier Lu has not returned to the army after fighting against the ice crystal snow monster. Perhaps he was seriously injured and could not return in a short time.

Perhaps the body was wrapped in horse leather and died in a dangerous terrain. The body was covered with snow and it was difficult to find it. Various scenarios are possible. Lu Xulei has been diligent in his duties for more than 20 years, and has been responsible for the empire's efforts to prevent the ice crystal snow demon from going south to invade the people. Although he has no merit, he still has some merit.

"Thank you for your hard work. If you say that Brigadier Lu colluded with Dan Zong for evil intentions, I will not believe it. I also hope that Your Majesty will make a judgment and not be easily accused of treason and collaborating with the enemy, so as not to chill the hearts of the people of the world!"

"Everything Aiqing said makes sense. Lu Xulei has worked hard and achieved great results. In the bitter cold of the northern border, I have never heard a single complaint from Brigadier Lu. Everything he said was for the benefit of the country and the army. Looking back on the past, I was also killed first.

When the emperor sent the troops to the north, it happened that the ice crystal snow demon was causing trouble. He witnessed the violent and crazy appearance of the ice crystal snow demon. It was really not easy to hold on for many years. Without Brigadier Lu personally teaching close defense and other physical skills, I would have died at the hands of my elder brother.

Hand. If anyone accuses Brigadier Lu of leaving his post without authorization and causing trouble in the military camp, I will allow him to die and serve as a warning to others."

When the ministers heard the meaning of Luo Chen's words, they were all frightened and did not dare to speak out. These few fleeting words reminded them that they had been sent to the north for three years to displease the late emperor, and that the eldest prince secretly sent assassins to murder Luo Chen and others.

The story was told so eloquently that cold sweat broke out on the backs of all the ministers.

At that time, the ministers advised Luo Chen to be expelled from Changning Province, and he struggled to survive in the ice and snow in the north for more than two years. How can the civil servants and generals who are still in the court now not be frightened when they hear Luo Chen mention the old things again?

, he immediately felt that his body and head were in a different place, and he was about to die soon.

At that time, the eldest prince, in order to secure his position as crown prince, regarded Luo Chen who was far away in the north as a thorn in his side and a thorn in his flesh. He tried his best to make Luo Chen stay in the snowy mountains forever. Unfortunately, he failed to do so, which also created Luo Chen's forbearance.

, has a bloodthirsty character, it doesn't matter if he is in a good mood, but if he is in a bad mood, he will kill an official to add to the fun, and has a habit of letting all civil and military officials watch the whole process of the guilty minister being quartered by five horses. This is no longer a simple killing of chickens to scare monkeys, this is officialdom

PUA, extremely cool.

"What? Didn't you have a strong opinion and stand just now? Why don't you speak now? Speak freely, dear friends?"

Luo Chen's tone was strange, and all the ministers remained silent, with their necks lowered and their heads lowered. They looked at the third leg with their eyes, nose, and heart, as if they were all puppets on strings. If Luo Chen didn't pull the strings, all the ministers wouldn't.

Dare to speak up.

Seeing that everyone was pretending to be deaf and dumb at this moment, Luo Chen felt unhappy and his original good interest was gone. Then he looked at Qian Jin who was the first to jump out to stir up trouble and asked in a deep voice.

"Shang Shu Qian, you are a man who knows people well and can make good use of them. You are also very insightful in marching and fighting. You have made many achievements and made great contributions. Let me ask you, if you say it is okay, what kind of generals and troops are sent to the northern border to help today?

, is it appropriate to take command and guard Northern Xinjiang?”

Qian Jin was sitting on the wicker chair at this moment, feeling like he was sitting on pins and needles. Although he was old, he still cherished his life. The younger members of the clan were still sensible, but he could not implicate the nine clans because of what he said wrong. His own death was nothing, and the younger members of the clan were still sensible.

Therefore, being implicated would be a big disaster. According to Luochen's usual temper, the more he praised his past achievements at this moment, the more he praised his past achievements, the more he was reminded of his life. Qian Jin felt regretful for taking the lead, but now he had no choice but to take the lead.

Without saying a few words, he paused for a few seconds to consider his words and then spoke in a low voice.

"Reporting to my emperor, the stability of the northern border can ensure the national destiny of the Jialuo Empire, and the five Jialuo provinces will have no worries. In my opinion, some elite members of the Divine Power Army should be mobilized immediately, and on the way, the eagle talisman can be used to draw newly recruited soldiers from the main cities of each province.

The new troops are divided into three groups and meet at the intersection of Husong Province and Dingbai Province. Now that the northern border has just experienced a catastrophe, the morale of the army is unstable. We should take this opportunity to appoint a very prestigious general to take charge. I recommend this person.

Wang Chengliang, the Minister of War, General Wang has just made great achievements in pacifying the war, and it is obvious to all of you. The empire is in a period of prosperous military fortune, and the powerful generals who have won many battles will surely be able to hold on to the northern border and stabilize our Jialuo River."

When Luo Chen heard this, he frowned and said nothing, as if he was weighing the pros and cons.

The ministers also discussed this and whispered among themselves.

Wang Chengliang has been studying the art of war since he was a child. He has a prominent family and has been practicing martial arts for generations. He is a general in the empire and the most prestigious person among the famous families. His cultivation has reached the level of the Spiritual Emperor. He is courageous, good at strategy, loves conquests, and has the heart to make achievements.

Everyone knows that after serving in the army for more than ten years, he has gained quite a reputation and is one of the top figures in the army. He is unparalleled in the limelight.

Many civil servants speculated that Luochen would transfer Wang Chengliang to Puluo Province to guard the border and grant him the title of General of the West, so that this young and promising general could continue to shine and drive away all the wolves in the Loulan Dynasty. He was even more powerful than Qiao Anguo in those days.

style.

At this moment, he was recommended by Qian Jin, Minister of the Ministry of War, to be sent to Northern Xinjiang. His military rank was a bit higher. The new commander of the northern border army, Brigadier Wang, had the military title of General Zhenbei, which was two ranks higher than General Zhengxi. It seemed that

The military achievements are even more impressive, but anyone with a discerning eye knows that if Luo Chen agrees, Wang Chengliang's military career will come to an end.

What kind of place is the North? A place where ordinary people don't want to stay. A place where neighboring countries don't want to go around the north and cross the mountains to drive troops south. Except for dwarves and ice crystal snow monsters, there are no other spiritual beasts active. The snow is covered all year round except for white.

It is a place where there is no bright color of green. If Wang Chengliang is sent to Northern Xinjiang, he will really be wasting his life in an empty job and there will be no good life.

What's more, if Wang Chengliang leads his troops to the north, his family members will definitely be held hostage in Yongyao capital, and the children are under three years old. If Wang Chengliang is sent to the north, his wife will really be left a widow.

The cunning rabbit dies and the lackey is cooked. This has been the case since ancient times. Wang Chengliang, who is at his peak of strength, may also be implicated in this and go to the snowy areas of northern Xinjiang to calm down. He will not be able to leave the northern border without a ten-year term.

"According to what Qian Shangshu said, General Wang has made outstanding achievements in pacifying Galan and recruiting the Pingtian Army. He is a great minister of the country. We now order Wang Chengliang to be appointed as the General of Zhenbei, and he will be given the post of commander of the northern army and an eagle talisman.

, guard the northern border for our Jialuo Empire, protect the peace of the world, and expand the territory of the empire!"

"Guarantee peace in the world and expand the territory of the empire!"

"Guarantee peace in the world and expand the territory of the empire!"

"Guarantee peace in the world and expand the territory of the empire!"

The ministers agreed, expecting that this was indeed the case. Wang Chengliang was young and promising and had killed countless enemies. Luo Chen was afraid that his master would raise him up and down secretly. The emperor's mind, the emperor's mind...

"Your Majesty, the Prime Minister has something to say, I don't know whether to say it or not." Wu Tianmou narrowed his eyes and saluted with both hands, with a humble attitude and a slight nod.

"What kind of advice does Mr. Wu have? You might as well speak freely!"

"Your Majesty, the fifth prince Luo Yu is very sick at a young age and suffers from hidden diseases. He often suffers from headaches and fever. The Gong doctor has repeatedly advised the fifth prince to leave Yongyao City and go to a secluded and cold place to recuperate his body. Unfortunately, it is too late.

The fifth prince has burned out his body, looks like a fool, and behaves badly. There are constant rumors in the imperial court. It is no longer appropriate to leave Luo Yu in the imperial court. It is better to escort him to the northern military brigade, where all the soldiers will be on duty.

It can also protect him and perhaps cure his headache and restore his sanity."

Shrimp and pork heart!

Shrimp and pig heart!

In the past, Minister Qian recommended Wang Chengliang, and in the later, Prime Minister Wu recommended Luo Yu. The direction of the wind this morning was indeed very strange, very strange!

Luo Chen pondered for a long time, with a bitter look on his face and an expression of regret, and spoke slowly.

"My son is young and smart, but he is suffering from a serious disease, which makes him unclear, unclear, and looks like a fool. He does stupid things that insult the majesty of the royal family. It is really his fault. Since Wu Aiqing proposed, let the imperial court go to the Hundred Palaces

My family will accompany my son to the north and take care of his daily life. I hope my son can regain his sanity and return to the capital of Eternal Light..."

"My Holy Emperor!"

"My Holy Emperor!"

"My Holy Emperor!"

After this topic was revealed, the ministers continued to bite each other and accuse each other of despicable behavior. The farce lasted all morning, and the verbal dispute was hastily ended on the grounds that Luochen had complained. The ministers were dry and looked at each other with hatred and resentment.

He folded his sleeves and withdrew from the court, feeling extremely angry.

…

Yongyao Capital, Imperial Court, and the Fifth Prince's Mansion.

A servant was busy running in the courtyard. The corridor was long and the courtyard was deep. The servant ran panting for a long time. His eyes kept scanning the courtyard, not missing every inch of the land. His eyes were so wide that they almost bulged out.

Finally, after finding the target in the rockery near the pond in the courtyard, the servant's heart finally relaxed. He stopped to adjust his breathing. He was about to step forward to report the situation, but he watched the fifth prince Luo Yu jump in.

He entered the lake, all his clothes were wet, and he murmured innocently. He kept sweeping his arms. The lower fish and beasts in the pond were frightened and swam to the edge of the pond. Luo Yu still worked hard to stir the water, but he didn't feel discouraged.

.

"Oh, my dear ancestor, please come ashore quickly. My old servant has something important to report. Why are you playing in the water? How unbecoming you are! Come here, get Prince Yu out quickly. Don't hurt the precious one.

Body.”

A group of servants ran over, jumped into the pond, held Luo Yu's joints and escorted him ashore. Unexpectedly, Luo Yu kept moving, which made the servants very uncomfortable. After Luo Yu came ashore, they still blocked the way to the pond to prevent Luo Yu from rushing into the pond.

Go into the pond and do ridiculous things again.

"Oh my ancestor, did you know that you are going to the northern part of the empire, and we have to go with you. There is ice and snow, there is nothing to eat, and the food and clothing are very tight. You are used to being pampered, and you will be here in the future.

We have spent the rest of our lives in the North, and we have to die there, what kind of evil is this..."

The old servant's eyes were dim, his mind had long been lost, and his many years of humility were gone now. All he could think about was the painful days after going to the North. These servants were ordinary people with no cultivation and mediocre talents.

They came to the imperial court to earn a living and strive for wealth. They thought that once their term was over, they would be able to take their savings over the years and go home to settle down and live for decades without worrying about food and clothing. This was their biggest vision that they looked forward to day and night.

But now, the dream has been shattered. There will be no good days in the future. Money and silver are no longer important. There is no trade in the ice and snow. From now on, I will only have ice and snow as companions. Marrying a wife and having children for the rest of my life is a foolish dream...

…

The huge gap made it difficult for the servants to conceal their disdain, and they had no good feelings towards Luo Yu. The servants were so angry that they completely ignored Luo Yu lying on the hot grass, talking and complaining.

It seemed like he was not in an imperial court, but like he was in a market in a small town on the countryside.

The long-suppressed souls got a moment of catharsis at this moment. It was difficult for the servants to accept the emperor's "gift". It was very difficult for them mortals to take care of themselves when they went to the north. How could they still have the energy to take care of the stupid prince? The most likely situation was that

They froze to death on the road before reaching the northern border. This was a road to death. Mortals like them who had no spiritual power would end up being buried with the fifth prince instead of accompanying him.

The emperor's mind is unpredictable, and these slaves have no choice but to silently accept their fate. When they go out with the army in the future, they will find an opportunity to escape from the area where the army is stationed. They will find a mountain top to hide incognito, and wait for a few years after the news has passed to find opportunities and relatives.

It's not too late to move the whole family after meeting each other.

One servant was upset and took his anger out on the fifth prince. He punched and kicked him, but other servants stopped him and told him that he was stupid. How could he blatantly express his anger? They pulled each other around. The scene was very chaotic, and the fifth prince was kicked.

After a few kicks, he rolled into the pond and slapped the water again, startling the fish in the pond and letting out silly laughter.

"Fish... fish... so many fish... so many fish... hahahaha..."

A group of slaves wanted to attack again, but were stopped by the loyal servants. They threw their arms and left in anger. Gritting their teeth cannot describe their feelings at that time.

After the resentful servant left, the timid and cowardly servant went into the water and dragged Luo Yu ashore again. The worried servant directly picked up Luo Yu and carried him to the mansion. After communicating with the maids in the mansion, he took Luo Yu to the side room to take a bath.

The weather was hot but I was worried that Luo Yu would get wet and catch the wind and cold. He completed the process of bathing, changing clothes, eating, sleeping, etc. with Luo Yu struggling and shouting intermittently. In order to ensure that Luo Yu would not go crazy or make a fuss again, the servants closed the door of the house tightly.

, leaving six people to guard the door of the mansion, while the rest packed up their belongings, took care of their travels, and set off to leave Yongyao Capital tomorrow. They may stay in that snowy and cold place for the rest of their lives...

Thinking about it, he felt that there was no hope for the rest of his life. The servant at the gate sighed secretly, feeling worried about his future situation and unable to save himself.

In the mansion, Luo Yu was lying calmly on the bed, with the tips of his hair still wet on his forehead. Even in the evening, he still felt hot and bored in the hot summer weather. However, the corners of Luo Yu's mouth slightly raised, as if he had encountered something great.

"After many years of patience, I can finally escape from the Nine Layers Palace. I am no longer a canary in the cage. My life should be saved, but I still have to be careful to guard against the eldest prince and the fourth prince. My two royal brothers have been

Hope I die soon..."

"My father is unkind and plots to rebel and usurp the country. Such a ruthless person is willing to let me leave the imperial court. There must be something fishy in this. I might die in an accident on the way north..."

"After many years of pretending to be crazy, I have finally come to this day. If you want to truly protect yourself, you can't just rely on showing off your madness. It is best to accidentally fall off a cliff in the ice and snow. Since then, there has been no trace of my body. The military has been searching for it to no avail, and it was determined that I died in an accident."

, that is the best result..."

Luo Yu took off the Buddhist beads on his wrist. The light on them was restrained and stopped flowing. Luo Yu's cultivation was gradually revealed. Nine spiritual knots appeared on his fingers, six of which were shining, colorful and very beautiful.

"I can finally escape from this prison. My stupid brothers are still fighting for the throne of the prince. They have never seen that my father is very strong. He is in his prime years, and the concubines in the palace can do it.

How can you be confident that your prince will not die because of his father's will? Your father is a tyrant, and the right way out is to escape from his clutches as soon as possible. It is not worth it to die fighting for power..."

A cold light passed through his eyes, the sky outside the paper window was dim, the night sky was full of stars, Luo Yu put the prayer beads on his wrist again, and the spiritual knot also disappeared. Sensing that a powerful spiritual warrior was approaching, Luo Yu quickly realized his wisdom and directly gave it to him.

He had a mental disorder, which stirred up the sea of ​​mental consciousness and made him confused. He lay down on the bed like a fool, with his mouth slightly open and his tongue sticking out, making him look like a fool.

A person's body shape changed, he quietly opened the paper window and jumped into the house. The original illusory silhouette gradually appeared. If there were courtiers present, they would have noticed that this person was Wang Chengliang, the minister of the Ministry of War. He was currently wearing a black leather coat and had removed the Darkborn Magic Bat.

After the invisibility effect, the body regains its shape.

Wang Chengliang walked forward silently and saw Luo Yu with drool dripping from the corner of his mouth. He felt pity and confirmed the current situation of the fifth prince. He used his mental power to explore Luo Yu's spiritual consciousness and confirmed that his consciousness was chaotic and shapeless. Such a complicated situation

It's not like his mental power is just fake. It seems that the fifth prince is really a stupid person.

After confirming again, they searched the mansion. If there was nothing that caught Wang Chengliang's attention, he mentally sensed the surroundings. After confirming that no one was approaching, he turned out the paper window and left the Fifth Prince's Mansion under the guise of night. After bypassing numerous patrols, he followed the emperor's direction.

The outer wall of the courtyard is far away, and the flying birds are flying in the distance.
