Eternal Life: My Millennia in the Jiaofang Division

Chapter 47: The Absurdity of a Foolish Emperor

Emperor Ming Yuan was frightened by the Queen Mother's anger, and even his head filled with alcohol became sober.

He quickly took the battle report from Zhan Xiong's hand, but the more he looked at it, the paler his face became.

At this time, Zhan Xiong handed over to the Queen Mother: "Queen Mother, do you want to discuss this matter now?"

The Queen Mother took a deep breath: "There is no need to delay the sudden change at the border. Please inform the ministers of the emergency. We must discuss countermeasures as soon as possible."

"yes!"

The war hero turned around and looked around at the ministers: "There has just been an urgent report from southern Xinjiang. Three days ago, the army sent to attack the Five Poison Sect in southern Xinjiang suddenly mutinied. Many soldiers defected, and some of the army turned to attack the capital."

"What, the army mutinied?"

The Minister of War quickly stood up and asked: "Duke Wei, what is the reason for the mutiny?"

"Because……"

Zhan Xiong glanced at Emperor Ming Yuan and said in a deep voice: "It's because of the lack of military pay. According to the emergency report, the southern Xinjiang army has not received military pay for three consecutive months."

"impossible!"

The Minister of Household Affairs jumped up: "The military pay has already been allocated to Southern Xinjiang. How could they not receive the military pay for three months?"

Zhan Xiong and King Su were silent.

But the Queen Mother snorted: "You two don't need to help him cover up. Since everything has been done, are you still afraid of being known?"

She glanced at the ministers with cold eyes: "The reason for the shortage of military pay is because Your Majesty diverted the military pay for other purposes and did not send it to southern Xinjiang."

"What?"

The ministers were in an uproar and looked at Emperor Ming Yuan in disbelief.

They knew that the emperor was stupid and absurd, but they didn't expect that this guy could be so stupid.

That's it in peacetime.

There is a war going on at the front now, but he dared to embezzle military pay at this time, and even made the soldiers at the front not receive any money for a month.

Is this what the emperor does?

This Jin Dynasty is your world!

Are the officials forcing the people to rebel?

What, do you want the emperor to force the army to rebel?

"Mr. Wei Guo, what do you think we should do about this matter?"

The Queen Mother asked Zhan Xiong.

"Your Majesty, for this plan, we must send a large army to deter the mutinous army with absolute force."

"In addition, we must raise military pay and send it to southern Xinjiang as soon as possible. We can tell the mutinous soldiers that the imperial court is not not refusing to pay the military pay, but that the military pay was delayed on the road due to an accident."

"Finally, the imperial court must send someone who has enough prestige in the southern Xinjiang army to convince the mutinous soldiers to go to southern Xinjiang in person to handle this matter."

After hearing what Zhan Xiong said, everyone nodded.

The Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue frowned slightly: "Now that the national treasury is empty, it may be difficult to raise such a large amount of military pay in a short period of time, unless..."

Everyone immediately looked at Emperor Ming Yuan.

For the current plan, the matter of military pay will probably fall on Emperor Ming Yuan, after all, the military pay is now in his hands.

The Queen Mother looked over coldly: "Tell me, where is that military pay now?"

"Mother...Mother, I am preparing to go on my seventh world tour, but I can't raise enough money at the moment, so..."

"Rebellious son!"

The Queen Mother was so angry that she picked up a wine glass and threw it away.

When the officials heard this, they were so angry that they almost laughed.

Cruising, cruising, cruising!

The first few times you traveled around the world, you ate, drank, and had fun along the way, and the expenses each time were astronomical.

But at that time, the treasury still had a surplus every year. As an emperor, it was hard for everyone to say anything!

But now that the treasury is empty, you still want to cruise?

He could even do something like embezzling military pay just for fun?

If the new Emperor of Chu knew about it, I'm afraid he would have to lift the coffin board and kill you, the traitor, with his own hands!

The more the Queen Mother thought about it, the angrier she became, and the demonic energy in her body backfired more and more fiercely, and there were even faint signs of losing control.

She realized that something was not right, so she said: "From now on, your Majesty will go to the Ancestral Temple to meditate on his past. The affairs of the court will be handled by Duke Wei with full authority, and King Su will assist. The mutinous army must be calmed as soon as possible."

"Yes, Weichen obeys your order!"

Zhan Xiong and King Su accepted the order at the same time, and other courtiers had no objection.

Anyway, Emperor Ming Yuan was mediocre and ignorant in these years, only enjoying extravagance and having fun every day, while the Queen Mother often fell into coma in bed.

The affairs of the court were the same with or without them, and were all handled by Zhan Xiong and King Su.

At this time, the Queen Mother got up and was ready to go back.

But at this moment, she suddenly felt a strong demonic aura coming from outside the hall.

The demonic energy came from the demon blood jade. It was only fleeting, but it was enough to completely trigger the backlash of the demonic energy in her body.

"not good!"

The Queen Mother's expression changed greatly, but she was unable to stop it at all.

The demonic aura quickly filled her body and swallowed up her sanity.

"Roar!"

A beast-like roar echoed through the hall, and countless green feathers quickly sprouted from the Queen Mother's body, turning into a green-haired monster in the blink of an eye.

Everyone was frightened by this scene and didn't understand at all, how could the Queen Mother suddenly become like this?

But the Queen Mother who lost her mind didn't pay attention to everyone's thoughts at all.

A terrifying aura erupted from her body, and she rushed out of the hall.

Along the way, several courtiers were easily incited to fly several feet away by her.

Even those military generals in the Xiantian realm were seriously injured under the hands of the Queen Mother after just one move.

"Quick, stop the Queen Mother and never let her leave the palace!"

Emperor Ming Yuan was shocked and shouted quickly.

He is probably the only one here who has seen the Queen Mother's demonized appearance.

It's just that in the past, the Queen Mother could control herself when she turned into a demon. He didn't understand why this time, the Queen Mother seemed to have lost control?

Swish! Swish!

Two old eunuchs suddenly appeared at the door of the hall. They were the two masters who were responsible for guarding the palace.

At the same time, Zhan Xiong also moved.

The three masters joined forces to besiege the Queen Mother. For a time, the huge true energy was agitated, shaking everyone in the hall to stand unsteadily.

The four people fought very fiercely and soon fought on the square outside.

Everyone hurriedly chased out and found that the three masters who were known for their unparalleled martial arts were actually at a disadvantage.

The demonized Queen Mother was too powerful. Even if she didn't break through the legendary Martial Saint, she was probably very close.

If you want to completely suppress her, I'm afraid it will take at least four masters to join forces to do it.

But now, where can you find the fourth master?

As for the others!

This level of battle is not something that people below the master are qualified to intervene in.

Even if a congenital master went up, he would probably be slapped to death by someone.

Seeing that the three great masters were getting more and more exhausted under the attack of the queen mother.

Suddenly, a figure in black clothes and a mask, carrying a broad and heavy sword, landed on the square.

"Who is this person?"

"I don't know. Seeing that he is hiding his head and showing his tail, I'm afraid he has bad intentions!"

"What is he going to do? Why is he walking towards the queen mother? Oh my God, is he also going to attack the queen mother and seek death?"

"Who does he think he is, a master?"

The ministers whispered to each other, looking at the man in black as if they were looking at a dead person.
