Chapter 932

The Jingtai Emperor can be considered to have sat firmly on this imperial throne—the second brother was forced to stay at home and read, and the third brother submitted a petition to be a border king, and now they are arguing. At first, the Jingtai Emperor didn't want the third brother to leave the capital, but after the strategist's persuasion, he now intends to enfeoff the third brother to the south to be a border king. Now Xiangpang is making quite a big noise in the south—at least the name of this person can be heard in the capital, and it is no longer just the four words of banditry recorded in the county annals.

So put the third brother in the south and let him block the rebellious bandits. As for whether the third brother will be raised as a tiger? Looking at the appearance of the great clans and families everywhere, each is a semi-independent kingdom. How can the third brother win them over? The fourth brother is not worth worrying about, and Bai Lang is already a border king. It is better to worry about whether Bai Lang will defy the world and go south directly to seize the imperial throne.

Even if there are Celestial Experts of Taoism, Buddhism, and Confucianism in the capital, and he can master the dragon Qi of the national destiny, the Jingtai Emperor is still very worried. Bai Lang's prestige is booming throughout the world. He defeated Chilaowen, a master who has been famous for many years, in one blow, and the name of the Three Fires Returning to Origin Skill also ranked in the top ten of the list of strange skills and arts.

High officials and generous salaries, fearing to stimulate the ambition of this fifth brother; ignoring him is no different from pretending to be dead, which does not solve the problem. So the Jingtai Emperor is also racking his brains over Bai Lang's existence. The threat of other brothers to his imperial throne has now been reduced to the point of nothing—with the existence of Confucian Celestial Experts, he ascended the throne as the orthodox Crown Prince, and the brand is the hardest, so there is no need to worry at all. Even if Buddhism and Taoism supported other princes before, now they must all regard him as orthodox.

The next fight is the fight between the Jingtai Emperor's sons—he doesn't have a son yet, only a daughter, but he will definitely have one in the future...

The great clans of Jiangdong have also slowly begun to be restless. The reason is simple—the financial situation of the Great Wu imperial court is not good, and now it has encountered the need to invest military expenses in both the northwest and southwest. The national finance that is in deficit naturally has to think of ways from the wealthy southeast. Moreover, the Jingtai Emperor can no longer tolerate the fact that the orders of the Great Wu imperial court have been disobeyed by Jiangdong for many years.

Want to take food from the mouths of the Jiangdong great clans, and also want to collect power? Things that the Wu emperors of all dynasties and even the previous dynasty could not do, what virtue and ability do you, Jingtai Emperor, have to think you can do it? What they are afraid of is Bai Lang. If this martial arts Celestial Expert ignores everything and comes directly, their two or three Celestial Expert family heads may not be able to stop a martial arts Celestial Expert who is like crazy, not to mention a martial arts Celestial Expert with amazing divine power lethality—this person has already killed a small great clan before, the kind that exterminated the whole clan.

What does this mean? It means that Bai Lang is cruel and ruthless and has killed many people. In his eyes, human life is probably as insignificant as cow hair. And he already has a move called "Killing Fills the Wilds," so there must be "Killing Fills the City." People like this are all stars of killing.

Great clans and families are most afraid of such people. Bai Lang is the kind of person who can do the deed of burning the inner treasury into brocade ashes and stepping on the bones of public officials on the heavenly street. Letting him learn from Huang Chao and Zhu Wen, and inviting the great clans and families to taste the skills of clear and turbid currents is absolutely no problem. However, the Jingtai Emperor? More than half of the ministers under him are children of great clans, and he still wants to collect money and power? Isn't this a joke?

The actions of the Jingtai Emperor can only make the great clans and families begin to protect themselves, changing from the secret default of everyone to semi-public. The great clans and families openly recruit soldiers and buy horses, and the orders to the imperial court have simply become pushing and delaying, and even the canal grain and tax silver have begun to be delayed. As a result, the Jingtai Emperor's finances have further gone bankrupt, and this former Crown Prince brother smashed quite a few things in the imperial study.

The morning court is just cursing, cursing those Jiangdong great clans and also cursing those officials in the imperial court. "Everyone is just sitting in their positions and eating! Good, everyone is just watching the country decline for the sake of the family! I will go find the fifth brother and tell him to kill you all!" The furious Jingtai Emperor danced and gestured, and his words were extremely vicious—he was naturally not afraid in the palace. This is a place with full combat power. Even if the Crown Prince's martial arts were not very good before, he was instilled here to be a Celestial Expert, which is much worse than his father but still passable.

Bai Lang is very happy now, there is nothing at the border—the Northern Barbarian troops retreated thousands of miles away and did not enter the scope of Longcheng Pass at all. And the local troops are naturally unable to restrain Bai Lang's whereabouts—originally they also had the task of monitoring every move of the border king, but now this task is ruined. Who the hell has the courage to monitor Bai Lang? Naturally, he does whatever he wants. And Bai Lang didn't make the imperial court troops have high blood pressure; he mainly played with women in the princely mansion—that is, the two princesses.

It is estimated that descendants are difficult, but it is okay to be casual. This can also be considered dual cultivation. He must also improve the strength of the two princesses, lest they become his weakness in the future. "At least they must be able to run away, right?" This is Bai Lang's view, so the main thing is to train the movement skills of these two—good movement skills also make dancing look good, and there are more actions to play with, right? Just at this time, Bai Lang received a message in his heart.

"The time has come, the plan begins." So this guy clapped his hands happily. "Haha, Jingtai little kid is in a mess!" The two princesses were also overjoyed to hear Bai Lang say this. "Is the Prince preparing to 'Jingnan' (pacify the troubles)?" Bai Lang was very embarrassed. "I am a loyal minister of the imperial court, what Jingnan or not! It has nothing to do with me! I mean the world is going to rebel."

Xiangpang, this kid, attacked cities and seized strongholds, shaking the south, rising like a meteor—what makes the Great Wu imperial court and the Jiangdong great clans and families fearful is the appearance of another Celestial Expert, and it is a martial arts Celestial Expert with amazing lethality like Bai Lang, and the thunder-based martial arts divine skill he practices is also unparalleled in power. This Celestial Expert is still a rebel leader, and the banner he raised is still acting on behalf of heaven.

In dealing with Xiangpang, the Great Wu imperial court is very likely to join forces with the great clans and families—because Xiangpang opposes not only the emperor and corrupt officials of the imperial court but also the local great clans and families. "Knocking bones and sucking marrow, grinding teeth and sucking meat, making us common people never be able to get ahead, isn't it just the Jiangdong great clans and families!" He broke several forts and rescued many tenant farmers—however, these people had already become accustomed to being enslaved by the great clans and truly believed that they were naturally born to work for these great clans.

They also worshiped Buddhism in large numbers to anesthetize themselves—Xiangpang didn't talk much, directly killed the masters, stewards, and housemen in the forts, and distributed the land to the tenant farmers on it. He could recruit some young people willing to join the army from it.
