Chapter 151: If Li Chen really wants to hit you, you have no way at all!

In the inner courtyard of the Imperial Palace, the atmosphere was exceptionally heavy.

In Li Chen's bedroom, several strange yet familiar women looked at each other, and for a time, they didn't know what to say.

Early this morning, Li Chen went to the morning court as usual.

After he left, Mu Qingrou and Shi Yingying changed their clothes and got up one after another.

Mu Qingrou walked out of the bedroom and came to the place where they ate.

Shi Yingying had been waiting here for a long time.

"Mansion Master, I ordered some food for you; eat it while it's hot."

The two had been together for many years and were very familiar with each other's tastes.

"You eat first; I'll go look at the Thousand-Blade Sword."

This was what Mu Qingrou was thinking about day and night.

For it, she suffered quite a bit last night.

"The Thousand-Blade Sword is just placed there; it won't run away; you eat something to replenish your strength first."

Hearing Shi Yingying's words, Mu Qingrou originally wanted to say something, but her stomach growled uncooperatively.

Thinking that what she said was also true, she picked up the Thousand-Blade Sword that Li Chen had casually placed nearby and came to the table, touching this precious sword while eating breakfast.

At this time, a young and beautiful woman wearing palace attire walked in.

Whether it was her figure or temperament, it was excellent.

Added to that exquisite face, it was indeed somewhat stunning to see.

Chu Ruoyan had two new concubines enter the palace yesterday.

Early in the morning, according to custom, she came over to understand, see which girl Li Chen had harmed again, and by the way, inform the new concubines about some matters in the rear palace to facilitate their familiarity with the environment.

Mu Qingrou and Shi Yingying had just arrived here, and seeing a concubine like Chu Ruoyan, they were still somewhat restrained.

But women, after chatting for a while, they started to get familiar.

When learning that Mu Qingrou's identity was the Master of Zi Yun Immortal Mansion, Chu Ruoyan showed a surprised expression.

"Ah? Sister, you wouldn't happen to be that legendary Flawless Sword Venerable, right? You have always been my idol!"

Chu Ruoyan held Mu Qingrou's hand excitedly, feeling like a little girl who had successfully chased a star.

As a woman who had always been self-reliant, she must have heard of Mu Qingrou's deeds and had always worked hard with Mu Qingrou as her example.

Now finally being able to see this strong sword-venerable woman, could Chu Ruoyan not be excited?

At first, Mu Qingrou thought this was just polite talk, but then Chu Ruoyan started talking endlessly.

"Sister, I have memorized your deeds clearly..."

There are also many biographies of powerhouses sold in the Imperial Capital; a powerhouse of Mu Qingrou's level must have many stories.

For example, defeating which ancient heaven-favored genius in certain mystical realms, killing mutated demonic beasts across levels, the combat results of various Dao-discussing assemblies, and even some of Mu Qingrou's catchphrases she knew.

These were not 100% correct, but they were indeed the content of Mu Qingrou's biography.

Mu Qingrou now knew that Li Chen's concubine was indeed her little fan girl.

But now they were both the same, members of Li Chen's rear palace.

Not long after, Wu Nanzhi and Pei Wanyu also walked over.

Because they heard there was a Sword Immortal here, they definitely had to come and see.

Hearing the flattery of the little sisters, Mu Qingrou was somewhat embarrassed, indicating that she was not any Sword Immortal; compared to Li Chen's sword intent, she was still far behind.

She was just ranked in that area of Zi Yun Immortal Mansion.

This sentence was not Mu Qingrou being humble; before knowing Li Chen, she also felt that her sword intent was peerless and unique in the world.

Others called her a Sword Immortal; from a certain point of view, it could also be called that.

But ever since seeing Li Chen, she knew that there were people beyond people, and Heaven beyond Heaven.

Her so-called "unique in the world" was just not seeing anyone stronger in sword intent; now that she had seen it, she could recognize her own positioning.

Still remembering that day in Zi Yun Immortal Mansion when she fought Li Chen, she was defeated to the point where she didn't even have her panties left.

Mu Qingrou was also curious about the origins of these women; everyone was introducing each other while eating breakfast.

"You are the Eldest Princess of the Tian Wu Dynasty? Do you know Tang Mengyou?"

Hearing Pei Wanyu's introduction, Mu Qingrou remembered something and asked.

"Ah? Sister Mu, do you know my mother?"

Hearing Mu Qingrou call her mother's name directly, Pei Wanyu felt very surprised.

Because her mother had rarely gone out since entering the palace, and she didn't know what her mother did before, she only felt that her mother's strength was very strong.

All her skills were learned from her mother.

At this time, Shi Yingying beside her explained: "It's like this, your mother is a disciple of our Zi Yun Immortal Mansion and has a very good relationship with the Mansion Master."

Of course, Shi Yingying didn't say it all here; Tang Mengyou and Mu Qingrou had a very good relationship; they were both sword cultivators with extraordinary talent.

But there was only one position for Mansion Master; Mu Qingrou's strength was stronger, and she was a proper sword fanatic.

It is said that after Tang Mengyou was defeated, she married a member of the Imperial Clan of the Tian Wu Dynasty.

At that time, that Imperial Clan member was not yet the emperor; now it seems he has become the emperor.

Shi Yingying started inviting Pei Wanyu, letting her definitely come to Zi Yun Immortal Mansion to see if she had the chance.

Pei Wanyu agreed happily; originally she planned to follow the mission to go back after the national celebration of the Tian Ce Dynasty ended, but now she wanted even more to go and see the place where her mother cultivated before.

She and Shi Yingying also chatted more and more congenially, because the technique Pei Wanyu practiced was indeed the technique within Zi Yun Immortal Mansion, and Shi Yingying could give her some pointers.

The reason Mu Qingrou was somewhat speechless was that she was surprised to find that she and the daughter of her good sister were both Li Chen's women, and she herself was also Li Chen's woman; this was inevitably somewhat embarrassing.

If Tang Mengyou heard this, wouldn't she laugh at her?

Now it was just slightly awkward; even if Li Chen wasn't there, they could still chat.

But after three people entered, the scene started to become awkward.

Lady Youlan and Lady Yuehua were not entering the palace for the first time, so they were naturally familiar with the road; Dai Hongling followed behind them, looking at this place.

She and Li Chen had an intimate relationship, but that was only in other places; it was Dai Hongling's first time coming to the Imperial Palace.

Hearing that Li Chen didn't have many concubines, Dai Hongling was actually afraid of encountering Li Chen's concubines, because she always had a feeling of being afraid of being discovered.

Dai Hongling was different from other women; her relationship with Li Chen was really in the dark, with a very heavy sense of immorality.

But when she entered Li Chen's bedroom and saw a group of women, among whom there were even people she knew!

This problem was very serious!

Mu Qingrou and Shi Yingying were also stunned on the spot when they saw the three of Lady Youlan.

They also had a feeling of being discovered "doing bad things."

They didn't expect that they had just become concubines and encountered acquaintances.

They didn't know the relationship between the three of Lady Youlan and Li Chen, thinking that the three of Lady Youlan should be here to attend the national celebration.

The current situation was not very awkward yet.

But what was awkward was that Chu Ruoyan started to introduce them.

Chu Ruoyan only knew that Lady Youlan and Lady Yuehua had a relationship with Li Chen; after all, they were all teammates who had already played ranked matches.

This news left Mu Qingrou and Shi Yingying dumbfounded!

Opening their mouths, not knowing what to say.

They indeed didn't expect that these two married women had a relationship with Li Chen?

Finally, the gaze of most people present locked onto Dai Hongling.

Chu Ruoyan was also seeing Dai Hongling for the first time; she didn't know her.

But Mu Qingrou and Shi Yingying knew her; these were all old acquaintances, just didn't expect to see her here.

Shi Yingying felt that if Li Chen played so excitingly, it was estimated that he didn't let Dai Hongling go either.

"I have something to do; I'll go first." Dai Hongling said and wanted to run.

As a result, she was grabbed by Lady Yuehua.

Lady Yuehua felt that she would definitely lose face today, but she absolutely couldn't let Dai Hongling go.

Under Chu Ruoyan's questioning, Lady Yuehua simply told Dai Hongling's matter, indicating that she was also here to serve in bed.

Dai Hongling now wished she could find a place to drill into.

Chu Ruoyan didn't know why Dai Hongling would be so shy.

But Mu Qingrou and Shi Yingying knew that this guy had a Taoist companion.

So the atmosphere at the scene was exceptionally awkward; even Chu Ruoyan wanted to say something but didn't know how to open her mouth.

Finally, it was the appearance of Li Sining that broke the deadlock.

Li Sining had just finished cultivating and came over to take a look.

Go, so many beautiful women; my brother's development speed is really fast.

Upon learning that Li Sining was Li Chen's sister, all the women present focused the topic on her, and they were also unprecedentedly concerned about her.

After all, as long as they chatted with Li Sining, they wouldn't involve Li Chen's private affairs. The two groups of women from different sects didn't ask each other how they hooked up with Li Chen.

The only person at the scene who knew the truth was Lady Youlan; it could be said that the culprit of all this was her, but she couldn't say anything.

Ji Lianyu arrived here last, because she had been busy with those matters of the Ji family recently and hadn't stayed in the palace.

As for how many women Li Chen had, she definitely had no opinion.

Li Chen needed her, so she came over; Ji Lianyu's positioning of herself was very clear.

At this time, Li Chen was still at the morning court, because there were many people coming to the Imperial Capital recently, and many departments in the Imperial Capital were in a state of alert.

Furthermore, the war in the north started to expand continuously; some time ago, that was Guo Guo Po Yun testing, and now there are gradually big moves.

What Li Chen needs to do is just wait for the good news.

Either Guo Guo Po Yun sends the good news, or he sends the heads; there are only these two results.

After the morning court ended, unexpectedly, the new Minister of War had something to report to Li Chen.

!

Inside the Imperial Study, the Minister of War presented a secret report.

"Your Majesty, the Sassanid Dynasty has had troop movements recently; Your Majesty must be on guard."

The Minister of War had finally managed to reach this point, and his work was very serious.

According to the intelligence records, the garrison within the Sassanid Dynasty, the largest force in the west of the Tian Ce Dynasty, was continuously moving eastward.

This is a relatively serious problem.

According to the Minister of War's consideration, the north is fighting fiercely, the Third Prince in the east is restless, the Prince of Zhennan in the south has obvious intentions, and now the Sassanid Dynasty in the east also has a trend of mobilizing troops.

If these forces are all in collusion, once they really make a move, the Tian Ce Dynasty will definitely be in chaos.

It is worth mentioning that the Sassanid Dynasty is ruled by an empress, Empress Ayesha.

However, the relationship between the Tian Ce Dynasty and the Sassanid Dynasty has always been relatively harmonious, and there is a lot of trade between the two countries.

There are quite a few merchants from the Sassanid Dynasty doing business in the Imperial Capital.

During this period, Li Chen also read some civilizations about the Sassanid Dynasty; the cultivators in that place also cultivate meridians, but the body structure is different, and the way of using ability is also different.

As the Minister of War, many things have to be considered, but the decision is still here with Li Chen.

Li Chen is also thinking, is the Sassanid Dynasty persuaded by other forces, preparing to come together, or just waiting for the Tian Ce Dynasty to be in chaos and wanting to share a piece of the pie?

In any case, since the Sassanid Dynasty has this idea, it must be guarded against, and they cannot be let go.

Li Chen let the Minister of War go back first, and then sent people to call Pang Jin and Li Sixing over.

"It seems my work recently is quite heavy."

Li Chen yawned, not feeling much pressure, just purely not having rested well.

Before the two subordinates came, Li Chen was planning what he would do in the next period of time.

First, it must be during the national celebration, to eliminate the special forces hidden in the Imperial Capital, that is, those who want to enter the Imperial Clan forbidden area.

For what purpose they are, Li Chen is too lazy to ask; as long as he kills all those who are dangerous to himself, then the rest will have no danger; this is Li Chen's way of thinking.

Next, it must be to solve the remnants of the previous dynasty, and by the way, clean up Zi Xiao Tiangong.

If that is the case, he will harvest various powerhouses and stabilize the situation in the Imperial Capital and the central part of the Tian Ce Dynasty.

Then continue to expand, clean up the Third Prince and the Prince of Zhennan, so that the relatively large threats in the country will be lifted.

If he doesn't solve them, Guo Guo Po Yun will also be timid.

As the Commander-in-Chief of the three armies, Guo Guo Po Yun definitely knows that once he mobilizes the troops in the central part of the Tian Ce Dynasty, these two guys will definitely march directly toward the Imperial Capital.

So he can only use the Northern Army to fight at the current stage.

But the Northern Army has to fight against the power of the entire Snow Eagle Wang Ting.

Finally, that is to clean up the surrounding countries.

Perhaps many people in these countries feel that they are innocent, clearly not having provoked the Tian Ce Dynasty, why are they being cleaned up?

Li Chen's idea is very direct: You didn't provoke me, so I can't clean you up?

This is not to give you a lesson.

I want to clean you up; do I still have to wait for your consent?

You look at the Northern Wang Ting; isn't that how they are being beaten?

When Li Chen thought about it, the Minister of Justice Pang Jin and the Commander of the Imperial Guards Li Sixing had already arrived at the Imperial Study.

"Your humble servant Pang Jin, pays respects to Your Majesty."

"Your humble servant Li Sixing, pays respects to Your Majesty."

The two entered the Imperial Study, both looking like they were waiting for orders.

They knew Li Chen's character very clearly; this emperor would not be suspicious like other emperors.

Li Chen called them here, definitely having things to order, so they only needed to listen.

"Rise; in a few days it will be the national celebration; you two start to implement the plan."

The plan mentioned here is the one Pang Jin mentioned a long time ago, setting up a trap to attract the two major forces in the dark to appear.

Because there might be some people with extremely strong strength, that is, powerhouses who can make famous experts like Fan Kuai fall, the Ministry of Justice might not be able to take them down easily.

In order to avoid these people escaping, Pang Jin wanted Li Chen to activate the Imperial Weapon at that time, but upon learning that Li Chen was a Sage Realm powerhouse, he simply asked Li Chen to make a move personally.

Li Chen now sees that the timing is ripe, so he plans to start the plan.

In Li Chen's calculation, Mu Qingrou has already arrived at the Imperial Palace, and it is estimated that Lady Youlan will arrive soon.

At that time, these forces hidden in the Imperial Capital will have to face three Sage Realm powerhouses directly.

Li Chen's approach is very simple: since he wants to make a move, then he will find a way to kill these guys cleanly, saving trouble.

How to layout specifically, how many people to dispatch.

These don't need Li Chen to think; if he had to do everything himself, then what would he need these subordinates for?

After Pang Jin and Li Sixing layout, Li Chen is only responsible for making a move.

Those you can't deal with, I will; those you can deal with, you deal with yourselves.

Li Chen's duty is to exert the role of the ministers to a great extent; this is his understanding of an emperor.

After Pang Jin and Li Sixing received the order, they went out to prepare.

After they left, Li Chen continued to read the memorials; waiting for the last memorial, today's task could be considered completed.

Returning to the bedroom, he saw a pile of women inside; it could be said that all the women who had a relationship with Li Chen at the current stage were there.

All the women's gazes gathered on Li Chen, seemingly wanting Li Chen to break this awkward situation.

That is, the problem that the two teams of sect cultivators didn't dare to open their mouths to each other.

Li Chen also had his own solution, which was to close the door and let everyone be honest with each other.

Only by letting these women become comrades-in-arms can their estrangement be eliminated.

This is something that only Li Chen's physical strength can achieve.

When the Imperial Palace in the Imperial Capital was firing cannons, the Prince of Zhennan's wife in the Prince of Zhennan's mansion was also unable to sleep alone.

During this period, under the instigation of her sister Ji Lianyu, the Ji clan also started to secretly let some people return to the Imperial Capital to develop.

Actually, doing this, the Prince of Zhennan's wife still felt somewhat guilty and uneasy; what if it were discovered by the Prince of Zhennan?

Early this morning, the Prince of Zhennan returned to the mansion, giving the Prince of Zhennan's wife a fright.

She thought it was because the things she did were discovered, but the Prince of Zhennan just came to let the Prince of Zhennan's wife arrange for people to go to the Imperial Capital to attend the national celebration of the Tian Ce Dynasty.

This kind of small matter, the Prince of Zhennan was too lazy to arrange personally, so he let her prepare.

She asked the Prince of Zhennan if there was anything else after returning?

The Prince of Zhennan indicated no; he was just passing by the door of his house, coming in to drink a cup of tea, and still had to be busy practicing troops and negotiating with the surrounding great forces.

Especially the Holy Master of the Witchcraft Holy Land, that is not an ordinary Sage Realm powerhouse.

The two also chatted happily, having the intention of plotting a great cause together.

And the rulers of the southern countries would also listen to his command.

As long as the Prince of Zhennan has moves, they are the vanguard.

After all, these people were beaten into submission by the Prince of Zhennan; the prestige of the Prince of Zhennan in the south of the Tian Ce Dynasty and its surrounding countries had long exceeded that of the emperor.

It can be said that in this area, everyone may not know who the emperor is, but they must know that the Prince of Zhennan is the hegemon here.

Of course, the Prince of Zhennan wouldn't tell the Prince of Zhennan's wife many things; he just told her to prepare properly for the people to attend the national celebration; as for the tribute, don't give too much, and don't give none; pick some that you don't like and send them over, that's about it.

The Prince of Zhennan is still doing the final mobilization; he doesn't want to attract the garrison in the central part of the Tian Ce Dynasty directly.

The Prince of Zhennan seems to have understood Li Chen's way of thinking; he feels that this guy hits as soon as he says, and really doesn't care about the situation.

Didn't you see the Northern Wang Ting, being beaten somewhat inexplicably?

If I didn't pay tribute this time, what if that kid Li Chen sent people to beat me directly?

Don't think he doesn't dare; didn't the Wang Ting Khan think so back then?

If Li Chen really wants to hit you, you have no way at all!
