The scene of Iron Man showing off his might was also captured by the surveillance of military satellites overhead.

The princes of Taicheng were sitting together in the cabinet conference hall at this time, watching the battle scenes projected on the big screen. While watching them seriously, they occasionally exchanged a few words in a low voice, or took a sip of tea and wine from the coffee table. After a few mouthfuls, he frowned.

Other officials stood on both sides and did not dare to express their anger. Because here are not only the top political figures Yu Yuangui and Wang Maohong, but also the patriarchs of the five surname families Li Xuansheng and Cui Congyan, the military town bosses Wen Taizhen and Xi Daohui, and even the young emperor, the queen mother and the eldest princess of Nankang.

The aristocratic families, the generals, the royal family, all the big shots in the Jin Empire are here.

When the screen showed Cheng Jinyang unfolding his peacock feathers, Cui Congyan reminded him:

"Hejian Xing's Peacock Feather."

"Metal Storm Weapon System?" Wen Taizhen asked with a frown.

"Yes." Cui Congyan said, "Metal projectiles, pulse ignition, consume a lot of ammunition, so we have to rely on mass effect to reduce weight and carry it, otherwise it will be a waste of transportation capacity."

"But even if Metal Storm is full of ammunition, it can only fire once or twice at most." Xi Daohui said in a deep voice, "How does his ammunition achieve self-circulation? Metal storms are collected on site to make bullet casings. What about primers?"

"He asked Bian Wangzhi to bring a batch of metallic hydrogen." Cui Congyan reminded.

"Metallic hydrogen?" Wen Taizhen asked in surprise, "Doesn't metallic hydrogen need to be stored in a strict vacuum seal?"

"The level of metal manipulation is high enough that it can forcibly lock hydrogen atoms in a metallic state without participating in any reaction." Wang Maohong said lightly.

"How high does it need to be?" Yu Yuangui asked seriously.

"Sixth grade." Wang Maohong replied, "Calculation power and blood concentration are indispensable."

"So Cheng Jinyang in this state possesses sixth-grade metal manipulation strength." Yu Yuangui looked at Chu Jiye, the attendant next to him, "Jiye, I remember that your wife should also be living in the Cheng family of the divine capital, and she will follow him this time. After entering the battlefield, what level has she reached now?"

"Last month, the Hui tribe was inspected and it was already in the seventh grade." Chu Jino replied.

Everyone was in awe after hearing the words. Yu Yuangui asked this question because he suspected that the metal manipulation used by Cheng Jinyang at this time came from Chu Qingqing, who went to the battlefield with him.

Looking at the information in his hand, he found that all the superpowers that Cheng Jinyang had used were exactly consistent with the superpowers and bloodlines of the young ladies from the aristocratic families he brought to the Shenwu Army station.

"Let's make a list about these girls from aristocratic families." Wang Maohong said calmly, "For detailed rank information, ask their respective families."

"Yes." Li Xuansheng and Cui Congyan also nodded.

Among the five surnamed families, Cui Lucheng is in one group, Wang Zhengcheng is in another group, and Li family is in another group. Most families will basically choose one of them to join. Now that Wang Maohong has spoken and Li Xuansheng and Cui Cong have agreed, this order will be passed smoothly among all the nobles.

Yu Yuangui stood beside him without saying a word, just narrowing his eyes silently. Even though he had fully grasped the central power of the empire at this time, he still felt extremely vigilant and fearful of Wang Maohong's occasionally shown almost terrifying control over the entire noble clan.

"Zhongshu." Empress Dowager Yu said suddenly, "Cheng Jinyang, why did he take so many young ladies from aristocratic families with him when he went to the battlefield?"

"Your Majesty the Queen Mother." Yu Yuangui said in a deep voice, "Now it seems that his multiple powers need to be activated by the blood of the daughters of these aristocratic families."

"I know." The Queen Mother frowned, "I mean, why are they all women?"

Yu Yuangui's heart skipped a beat when he heard this.

This stupid woman!

Of course, he also tested Empress Dowager Yu's intentions regarding Princess Nankang's marriage.

As a ruler, Yu Zhongshu was worried that Cheng Jinyang's "identity background" was unclear. After all, his mother was a demon.

However, Queen Mother Yu's focus was completely different.

After all, Your Majesty is a daughter of a noble family, and the education she received since childhood was also aimed at the eldest daughter of a noble family. In addition, she was not originally trained as a core member of the family, so the Yu family did not teach her much about political strategy.

Empress Dowager Yu didn't consider this aspect at all. She just felt that the Cheng family in the capital city was too low-ranking and was not a famous family. She was "treating her daughter badly" by marrying her. Therefore, she expressed her opposition to Yu Zhongshu - of course. He was directly remonstrated by his brother and rejected.

Sister, do you know the Iron Giant Divine Weapon? The two of us combined are not enough for someone to step on us!

It would be better to force Su Zigao to rebel than to break trust with Cheng Jinyang!

Seeing that her brother insisted on persuading, Queen Mother Yu had nothing to say. However, her thinking was still the same as in the system, "I am the Queen Mother, how can the Cheng family dare to rebel?" Yu Zhongshu was also speechless.

At this time, Empress Dowager Yu mentioned this, and Yu Zhongshu immediately reacted keenly. The Queen Mother wants to beat herself up here and use this matter to express her dissatisfaction with the Cheng family in the capital city!

However, doesn’t she know that under the Young Emperor, she is the unique holder of imperial power? If this statement was made in front of so many political figures, how would everyone view the Cheng family in the capital city? The royal family has a bad feeling towards Cheng Jinyang!

"Your Majesty!" Yu Zhongshu gritted his teeth and roared, attracting the attention of the surrounding dignitaries.

Just as he was about to fight against the brother-sister relationship and scold the Queen Mother angrily, he heard the eldest princess of Nankang saying with a smile beside her:

"Mother, this should mean the daughter of a prince."

"Daughter of a prince?" Queen Mother Yu was surprised and turned her attention to Wang Maohong.

"Yes." Princess Nankang replied, "Of course I don't know the specific ability mechanism. But these candidates should have been selected by the prince's daughter."

The big guys around him suddenly realized.

Indeed, if you look at the list carefully, it goes without saying that the women with the five surnames except Lu have very powerful bloodline abilities. Apart from these four, Xing's and Cheng's abilities are the most compatible. Chu's ability is the core of this tactic, and Yang's ability makes up for the shortcomings in detection.

It was obviously carefully designed.

As for why Wang Wanrou chose girls from aristocratic families, that's normal. Women are more likely to stick together than men, and they are more likely to gravitate toward strangers who are also women. This has long been proven.

Empress Dowager Yu's brows were still furrowed, but she remained silent. She originally wanted to use the fact that "they are both daughters of aristocratic families" to question Cheng Jinyang's own adultery problem, but she did not expect that her daughter would deftly resolve it.

What's more important is that her daughter has expressed her thoughts to herself tactfully.

What kind of virtues and talents does Cheng Jinyang have? It actually makes my Nankang fall in love with him! Daughter of a prince, daughter of a prince... By the way, if Nankang failed to marry him, then could the daughter of a prince beside him be Wang Maohong's back-up plan to win over him?

Queen Mother Yu suddenly realized that the "Steel Giant Divine Weapon" that Yu Zhongshu had hinted at in a roundabout way appeared in her mind again.
