Chapter 35

But what about this new Emperor?

On the very first day of court, before Chunyu Yue had even spoken a word, he killed him just for proposing the feudal system.

Tell me, how could such a person be a good Emperor?

In their hearts, the many fangshi and alchemists cursed Facing Ying Su to the point of leaving no skin on his bones, but... on the surface, they were respectful and polite, not daring to even take a deep breath.

And when Facing Ying Su faced this crowd, he had no good expression either.

In Facing Ying Su's view, these people were all nothing but con artists wandering the world; if it weren't for the fact that he needed to use them, he would have had Yu Yu Huatian kill them all without leaving a single one alive!

But even though he had to use them, Facing Ying Su used them in the most despicable and shameless way!

"Everyone, those who have parents, step forward one pace!"

"What?"

The moment the words left his mouth, everyone was stunned!

They had no idea what Facing Ying Su wanted to do!

But their instincts told them it was nothing good, so even those who had parents did not dare to step forward lightly!

Seeing only a few people step forward, Facing Ying Su's gaze turned cold as he continued: "Those who have wives and children, step forward one pace!"

At that moment, everyone's hearts panicked even more.

At the same time, even fewer people stepped forward.

There were merely three people!

Facing Ying Su smiled: "Fine! Leave the names and addresses of your parents, wives, and children!"

As Facing Ying Su shouted, instantly Yu Yu Huatian took out a stack of paper and placed it before those who had parents, wives, and children!

And those who had stepped forward felt incredibly panicked at this moment; they hesitated for a long time, not daring to write.

Facing Ying Su's gaze turned cold: "Those who do not write, die!"

"Those who dare to write falsely, die!"

"Those without parents or mothers, without wives or children, die!"

He shouted with his mouth open!

And the moment these words came out, instantly, all the fangshi and alchemists were simply scared out of their wits.

Without any delay, almost everyone rushed forward at the first moment and began to write!

Even those who had not stepped forward earlier all began to write!

Seeing this scene, Facing Ying Su directly let out a cold sneer.

Not long after, everyone had finished writing. Facing Ying Su looked through the names and addresses of these people's parents, wives, and children, then handed them directly to Yu Yu Huatian: "Check them one by one; if even one person writes falsely, cut them into a thousand pieces and execute them by slow slicing!"

"What?"

The moment the words left his mouth, all the fangshi and alchemists trembled violently, and some were even so scared they collapsed to the ground.

Facing Ying Su lifted his head, Yu Yu Huatian understood, and immediately ordered people to take away those who had collapsed.

As for the others...

Facing Ying Su glanced at them: "Guaren Sect knows that among you, there are still those who fear death and are writing falsely, but Guaren Sect does not care; as long as you can establish merit for Guaren Sect, Guaren Society will let bygones be bygones!"

"But if even one person dares to flee, all of you, including those who wrote the truth, yourselves and your families, will all be wiped out!"

He spoke these words.

Instantly, everyone felt a chill run down their spines!

Everyone trembled and shook!

And this was exactly the effect Facing Ying Su wanted.

So, he stopped wasting words, directly took out the saltpeter scraped from the toilet, and shouted at them:

"Saltpeter, you alchemists all know it; there is plenty of this stuff in the outhouses, but what Guaren Sect wants is not the saltpeter produced from the outhouses!"

"What Guaren Sect wants is saltpeter mines!"

"Now, Guaren Sect sends you all over the world to search for saltpeter; if you can find it, each of you will be rewarded with a thousand gold and granted a hundred mu of fertile land!"

"If you cannot find it within one year, Guaren Sect will treat you as fugitives, and all your families will be wiped out!"

029. The Three Heroes of the Early Han Gather, Liu Ji Panics!

At this moment, Facing Ying Su spoke in a cold voice!

And upon hearing these words, the many fangshi and alchemists were all terrified, and everyone trembled and shook!

Even Yu Yu Huatian could not help but sigh at Facing Ying Su's high-level methods of controlling people!

What is this?

This is the typical tactic of giving a slap and then a sweet date, followed by a heavy blow!

Benevolence and authority coexist!

Forcing them to do their jobs well.

Yu Yu Huatian was still admiring it in his heart!

And as Facing Ying Su watched the backs of the crowd leaving, and then looked at the five hundred points he had just obtained, he smiled!

Yes!

His points have increased again!

Moreover, this is just the beginning!

Once the saltpeter mines are found, once black powder can be produced in batches, the speed of point growth will be simply unimaginable!

Besides that, there is also Zheng He setting sail!

This is a major event, and once this major event is accomplished, the speed of point growth will be even faster!

Remember, this is a great feat that benefits the nation and the people by greatly increasing grain production!

And Zheng He's voyage is imminent; the great ships are already in position, the routes are prepared, and only the final tiny bit of preparation remains.

It is expected that they can set sail within five days!

And besides that, there are the points for Han Xin, Zhang Liang, and the other Three Heroes of the Early Han!

Ying Su calculated the point projects he was about to receive, and his heart bloomed with joy.

But at the same time, he was also curious: where have Wang Li, son of Wang Ben, and Li Chen, son of Li Xin, arrived now?

Logically, by this very moment, they should have reached Peixian!

Ying Su guessed in his heart.

And in the distant Peixian.

Wang Li had indeed arrived here.

However, he had just arrived and, without time to rest, went straight to the Peixian county government office!

Yes, his father Wang Ben had instructed that this matter was ordered by the new emperor and must be handled properly!

Therefore, on this journey, he almost had no delays; he spurred his horse on, and in just a few days, he arrived at Peixian!

And Li Chen, who was with him, acted separately; they split up to search for the man named Han Xin in Weinan, and at the same time, they had to quickly notify the entire nation of the news regarding the hundred thousand gold bounty on Zhang Liang!

For these Three Heroes of the Early Han, Ying Su was determined to secure them!

And after entering the county government office, Wang Li wasted no time; he opened his mouth and summoned the Assistant County Magistrate of Peixian!

The Assistant County Magistrate of Peixian knew Wang Li's identity; how could he dare to show the slightest negligence?

Not only did he provide various entertainments, but he also conveniently summoned Xiao He!

"My lord, I am Xiao He; I dare ask, what do you seek me for?"

Xiao He's face was full of confusion!

Wang Li was not polite either; he spoke directly: "I have come by order of the new emperor, specifically to invite you, Fan Kuai, Cao Can, Lu Wan, and others to Xianyang!"

"Me? Fan Kuai, Cao Can? Lu Wan?"

The moment the words left his mouth, Xiao He was shocked; he completely did not understand why they were being invited into Xianyang City!

But very quickly, he was shocked by another piece of news: "Wait... the new emperor?"

"This... who is the new emperor?"

He was infinitely shocked, and the Assistant County Magistrate beside him was equally infinitely shocked!

Yes!

Ying Su's rebellion and his ascension to the throne have not yet reached Peixian; they are completely unaware of this so-called new emperor.
