Dragon of Douluo sings to the nine heavens

The general court meeting of the Star Luo Empire is not held every day. It is usually held once every ten days. It is held in the Tianji Hall in front of the Star Luo Hall. Due to the arrival of the Sea Soul Mission, an additional court meeting was added, right at the Sea Soul Mission.

The third day after arriving in Xingluo City.

Outside the huge Tianji Palace, there are thousands of well-equipped soldiers stationed, including nearly a hundred soul masters. Everyone's cultivation level is around the soul sect. Of course, this is not the case in normal times, but only Chaohui talents.

There is this configuration.

Although it was still very early in the morning, outside the palace, officials one after another rushed to the palace with their own thoughts in mind. After checking, a group of people entered inside chatting and laughing.

In fact, Xu Jiawei had already released the news on the day the Sea Soul Mission arrived. Basically, high-ranking officials had secretly reached a consensus with Xu Jiawei. They said it was discussed in court, but in fact it had been decided long ago.

After all the civil and military officials stood still in the Tianji Hall, everyone was whispering. Soon, eight o'clock in the morning was reached.

"Your Majesty has arrived, be quiet."

A low and majestic voice came from nowhere. In an instant, hundreds of officials collectively closed their mouths and faced the star chair respectfully.

Not long after, Xu Jiawei walked up to him like a tiger, and accompanied the two worshipers by his side.

After Xu Jiawei sat on the star chair, all the officials below immediately shouted in unison: "Long live my emperor."

Xu Jiawei nodded and said: "Without courtesy, the Xuanhai Soul Envoy will come to see you."

Soon, the commander of the Tianji Palace guard who was guarding the gate took orders and quickly came outside the palace, shouting: "Xuan, the Sea Soul Empire's envoy is here to see you."

After hearing what the leader said, the Prime Minister of the Sea Soul Empire and a group of people who were standing outside the palace tidied up their robes, and then quickly walked into the Tianji Palace. The group of people finally came to Star Luo in front of all the civil and military officials of the Star Luo Empire.

The Imperial Prime Minister stopped in a parallel position.

Prime Minister Haihun led the team, and the entourage saluted respectfully, "See Your Majesty Xingluo."

"No gifts." Xu Jiawei's eyes came into contact with Prime Minister Xing Luo. As if they had reached a consensus, there was a glimmer of calculation in their eyes.

Although the Star Luo Empire already knew what the Sea Soul Empire was thinking, they still politely had a regular greeting and conversation before starting to talk about the topic.

Prime Minister Haihun said respectfully: "My emperor hopes to reach an agreement on military cooperation with your country. Once it is accomplished, we are willing to give you a large city with a population of one million people and three medium-sized cities with a population of 500,000 people in return."

As soon as these words came out, the officials of the Star Luo Empire in the Tianji Palace instantly began to look at each other in disbelief.

With the continuous development of Douluo Continent for thousands of years, the classification of cities is also very clear. If the number of permanent residents with registered residence reaches one million, it is a big city. If the number of permanent residents with registered residence reaches 500,000, it is a medium-sized city.

One hundred thousand is a small city.

I have to say that this reward from the Sea Soul Empire is indeed amazing.

But, even if you get it, if you want the local people to really be willing to submit to the new empire, it will still take a lot of effort, and it can even easily lead to riots.

After saying that, Prime Minister Haihun quietly waited for a response.

Xu Jiawei remained silent, but Prime Minister Xingluo was about to start performing. He stepped out, faced Xu Jiawei, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, I believe that more discussions are needed on military cooperation. Nowadays, there are many people's livelihood problems in the empire, and it is not appropriate to use force to unite.

, we should take more care of people’s livelihood.”

Prime Minister Sea Soul glanced at Prime Minister Star Luo, but did not say anything. In fact, before coming back, Sea Soul Empire also sent people to visit many places in Star Luo Empire. The problem of people's livelihood in Star Luo Empire is indeed serious, so there is no problem.

In fact, people's livelihood is not only serious in the Star Luo Empire, but also in every empire in the Douluo Continent. To put it bluntly, the nobles are cannibalizing the common people too seriously. This is the biggest source of the problem.

If ordinary people want to get ahead, they have only one choice: becoming a soul master. Once they fail, the whole family can only stay at the bottom. It is too difficult to cross the class.

Xu Jiawei did not answer directly, but asked several important ministers one after another. Due to the communication in advance, the views of a group of people were completely consistent with Prime Minister Xing Luo.

This made Prime Minister Haihun frown slightly. He looked at Xu Jiawei, who seemed to be thinking about something. After a while, in the quiet Tianji Hall, Xu Jiawei spoke, "Tell me what you want to exchange for the four cities."

.”

Hearing this, Prime Minister Haihun's eyes lit up and he hurriedly said: "Back to Your Majesty, our Haihun Empire does not need any soldiers from your country to help fight against the Sun and Moon Empire. We only need your country to gather heavy troops in the Mingdou Mountains.

Just use force to intimidate the Sun and Moon Empire."

"That's it?" Xu Jiawei pretended to be surprised.

"Yes." Prime Minister Sea Soul nodded: "The Sun and Moon Empire is ambitious and wants to devour our Sea Soul Empire. However, due to the huge disparity in our national power, my emperor sent his ministers to your country for help. And your country should also be very powerful.

I would be happy to see a Sun-Moon Empire with declining national power. As long as our sea spirits exist for one day, we can bring longer development time to your country."

It has to be said that although the Sea Soul Empire is controlled by the evil soul master, the last sentence of the Sea Soul Prime Minister really spoke to Xu Jiawei's heart.

The longer the Sun-Moon Empire is divided, the better it will be for the Star Luo Empire.

Xu Jiawei pondered, "This matter cannot be decided arbitrarily. I need to consider it from many aspects."

Prime Minister Haihun was not in a hurry. Anyway, it was still early for the war between the Empire and the Sun and Moon Empire. He immediately changed the topic, "The foreign minister came to your country this time. In addition to discussing military cooperation, there is one more thing. Then

That is to carry out more maritime trade agreements with your country and strengthen the cooperative relationship between the two parties."

After suspending military cooperation, the meeting changed the direction of the discussion. In the end, it took almost an hour and a half, and after a heated exchange of words, Xingluo and Haihun reached a lot of cooperation on maritime trade.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The court meeting ended and the officials dispersed.

The Sea Soul Mission was led by a dedicated person and was brought back to the location.

But in the study room of Xingluo Palace, the arrival of another person made Xu Jiawei even happier, because these were none other than the people from the Sun and Moon Empire's mission.

The chief ambassador of the Sun and Moon Mission is none other than Jing Hongchen, who is known as the social beauty of the Sun and Moon Empire. By the way, Jing Hongchen rushed to Xingluo City after leading the troops with Orange.

From some people's mouths, Jing Hongchen already knew that the Sea Soul Empire also sent a mission to talk to the Star Luo Empire.

As for the Star Luo Empire, their attitude towards Jing Hongchen is very different. Don't forget, Jing Hongchen is a ninth-level soul engineer and the boss of the strongest soul guidance device research base in the mainland. His status is completely different.

"Master Hongchen, I've been waiting for a long time." Xu Jiawei sat on his exclusive chair. In front of him, Jing Hongchen sat there alone.

Among the entire Sun and Moon Mission, only Jing Hongchen came to Xingluo City, and the rest were still waiting at the place arranged by Duke White Tiger of the Mingdou Mountains.

"Your Majesty Xingluo. I'm here this time to trouble you." Jing Hongchen said with a smile on his face.

"It's no trouble at all." Xu Jiawei smiled and said, "I wonder why Hongchen Hall Master came here this time?"

Jing Hongchen kept a smile on his face without any change. He got straight to the point and said, "The reason those rebels went to your country as envoys is just to hope that Your Majesty will send troops to intimidate me, the sun and the moon. I shouldn't be wrong about this, right?"

Xu Jiawei was noncommittal.

Jing Hongchen smiled and said: "The reason why my emperor sent me to your country is mainly to discuss cooperation in soul guidance device technology between the two countries."

Xu Jiawei's eyes flashed, "Oh? In terms of technology, the Mingde Hall under your jurisdiction, Master Hongchen Hall, is the strongest in the entire Douluo Continent. We shouldn't have any conditions here for you to take a fancy to."

Why couldn't Jing Hongchen see that Xu Jiawei was playing the Riddler with him here? He said bluntly: "We are willing to share our sincere soul guide technology with your country, but the only thing your country needs to pay is pretense.

I agree with the ideas of those rebels, but in fact I am standing still."

"Although this batch of shared technologies is not the most cutting-edge, I can guarantee that it will definitely save your country's soul guide technology from many years of detours. Your Majesty must not know that Shrek Academy has internal control

Some of their soul guidance technology, I'm afraid even our Mingdetang can't compare with it."

Xu Jiawei remained calm and kept smiling, but there were some waves in his heart. Thinking of the recent contact between Shrek Academy and the Sun and Moon Empire, is it possible that the two parties also exchanged soul guide technology?

Such exchanges have already occurred.

"Your Majesty, to speak from the bottom of my heart, my emperor is now an emperor who pursues peace." Jing Hongchen added one last sentence, and then he stopped talking and sat happily waiting for Xu Jiawei's signal.

In the Imperial Study Room, the two priests following Xu Jiawei all looked at Xu Jiawei.

To be honest, no matter what the Star Luo Empire chooses, they will always be the ones who gain.

Xu Jiawei was not a very decisive emperor, but when it came to the long-term development of the empire, he became resolute. Looking at Hongchen's smile, Xu Jiawei smiled and said: "Your country is full of sincerity, and I can't be that bad guy."

Man, I will let the Prime Minister communicate and discuss the follow-up issues with the Master of Hongchen Hall."

Jing Hongchen said with a smile: "To be honest, we have brought some of the soul guidance device technology here. They are still waiting in the Mingdou Mountains. Once we complete the negotiation with your country, the first batch of technology will be delivered immediately."

Xu Jiawei took a deep look at Jin Jing Hongchen. He had to say that the Sun Moon Empire was indeed very courageous and would really give it to him if he had something. But he didn't know why he always had a bad premonition.

Jing Hongchen still kept smiling. He did bring a lot of soul guidance technology, but without exception, only 15% of these soul guidance technologies were related to combat, and most of them were for civilian use.

Soul guidance devices, actually civilian soul guidance devices, their technology is not that strong.

The most critical point why Jing Hongchen chose to give away so much civilian soul tool technology is that if it becomes popular in the Star Luo Empire in the future, the Star Luo Empire nobles will probably increase their efforts to monopolize it, but the common people will not.

There will be profits, so the Sun and Moon Empire can also use this shared technology to aggravate the internal conflicts in the Star Luo Empire.

Otherwise, you really think that the Sun and Moon Empire is a fool, and when it encounters problems, it gives you soul guidance technology, compromising your own strength to increase the enemy's strength.

This chess piece can also be regarded as laying the fuse for the future Star Luo Empire.

Between countries, who is plotting against whom?

While the Xingluo Empire was bustling, a place called Luoying City, four hundred kilometers northwest of Mingdu, was also bustling with excitement, but it was a bit different.

Because it was purely because the Sun and Moon Army from Mingdu chose this place as the first place to recover. The reason why they chose this place had something to do with their city lord.

The internal population of Luoying City is as high as 670,000. It is considered a medium-sized city. The city owner is named Xu Zuquan. It is considered a branch of the royal family for countless generations. Now it has taken refuge in the Sea Soul Emperor Xu You.

Xu You didn't value the northern cities with the Demonic Forest as the dividing line, so he gave all the nobles in the major cities in the north who surrendered to him great autonomy. The price only required them to pay enough money every year.

It can be said that Xu Zuquan was almost like a local emperor in Luoying City.

On the surface Xu Zuquan followed Xu You's policy of cultivating life and raising the people, but secretly he kept eating away at the city's resources and taking them for himself. This also led to many civilians going bankrupt and becoming servants and vagrants.

Recovering such a place is the easiest thing to do. All Oranges have their sights set on this place. As for Dongyang City, we have to consider it in the long term. After all, the largest city in the north is no joke.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! There are many cities in the Sun and Moon Empire. When the entire empire was not divided, the population was about 70 million people. Among them, the Sea Soul Empire later split after the Sun and Moon Empire was founded.

It has a population of about 25 million people, and in the Sun and Moon Empire, starting from the Demon Forest as the dividing line, it is the western and northern regions.

Five kilometers away from Luoying City, the mighty Sun and Moon Marching Army gathered in one place. It was already night time, and from the air, up to five high-altitude soul detectors had surrounded the entire city.

Every corner is tightly locked.

Orange stood in the tent, observing all the changes in Luoying City in front of the light guide screen. With the help of the picture projected by the detector, although the picture was not very clear, he could see that a raging fire was burning somewhere in the city.

"Commander, our commando team deployed in Luoying City has successfully occupied the city wall of Luoying City."

Suddenly, a heavily armed soul master came to Orange's side with a very respectful expression.

Orange's beautiful eyes are less soft than before and more sharp like a sword. She no longer has Xu Tianran's support behind her. If she wants to stand out, she must show her military talents. Otherwise, if she fails in this expedition to the north to regain the territory, I'm afraid

There will be no chance to turn around in the future.

"Inform the first soul engineer group to avoid civilian residences, take the route with the least traffic, and do not harm any civilians. Those who make mistakes will be dealt with according to military regulations. After sneaking into the city, first control the gathering place of the nobles of Luoying City and the city lord's mansion. Secondly

We and the Third Soul Engineer Regiment are responsible for suppressing the Luoying City defenders and trying to persuade them to surrender. This battle must be fought quickly, without giving the Luoying City defenders any chance to react."

Orange quickly issued the order.

"Here." The soul master accepted the order and ran out of the tent. The flying soul guide on his back spurted flames and flew into the air, while Orange's orders were conveyed by him one after another.

The three major substitute soul mentor groups have just become regular members, and it is their first time to engage in actual combat. However, after all, they have joined the ranks of the soul mentor group, and none of the internal personnel are rookies.

Visible to the naked eye, the three major soul mentor groups that were ambushing outside Luoying City successfully entered the city with the help of the city wall that was breached by the commando team. Then they divided into three groups, quietly meeting each other, and each went to one side to complete the instructions.

It was already early in the morning, and the residents in Luoying City had already fallen asleep. After all, it was not a top city like Mingdu, and there were not many entertainment activities. They could only go to bed early. The streets everywhere seemed very quiet.

The cold wind blowing from time to time can also make some noise.

On a dilapidated street with many trash cans, a little girl who was no more than seven or eight years old, with yellow and dirty hair, and a bloodstain on her right arm was struggling to dig through the trash cans, eager to find some food.

When she found a piece of black bread that was almost moldy and was thrown away by others, her body was covered with the stench of garbage. A "greedy" smile appeared on her obviously malnourished face. Suddenly, she was stunned.

When she turned around to find a place to sit down and eat, a group of people quickly dispersed from all directions on the street like messengers of the night.

Immediately afterwards, the little girl opened her round eyes wide, because at some point in front of her, a piece of extremely delicious-looking cream cake appeared, with a few pieces of fruit garnished on it. At this moment, the cake lay quietly.

On a clean plastic board…
