Chapter 970: An Emperor Does Not Starve His Soldiers

Yuan Tiangang heard Tang Huang Li Shimin say he would be heavily rewarded, but on the surface, he looked indifferent, viewing wealth and glory as dirt.

"How can that be? If you accomplish this matter, you are a person of merit to my Great Tang. How can you not be rewarded!"

Tang Huang Li Shimin knew very well the principle that an emperor does not starve his soldiers.

Therefore, he naturally rejected Yuan Tiangang's proposal.

"Your humble servant..."

Yuan Tiangang still wanted to say something at this moment; after all, what he sought was not wealth and glory.

Otherwise, why would he have entered the Dao Sect?

But Tang Huang Li Shimin interrupted directly: "Alright, say no more!"

Hearing Tang Huang Li Shimin's words, Yuan Tiangang could not say anything more, so he settled down to preside over the ghost-repelling array, preparing for the upcoming Jinghe Long Wang.

"Qin Shubao, you proposed such a good method for me, what reward do you want?"

Tang Huang Li Shimin turned his head to look at Qin Shubao beside him at this moment.

Yes, Tang Huang Li Shimin still brought Qin Shubao and Yuchi Gong by his side.

After all, although Yuan Tiangang was very confident that the ghost-repelling array could deal with the Jinghe Long Wang.

But Tang Huang Li Shimin himself did not dare to gamble, even if there was only a one in ten thousand or one in one hundred thousand chance.

Because once he gambled wrong, then his life, Tang Huang Li Shimin's, would not be guaranteed.

So under these circumstances, Tang Huang Li Shimin naturally brought Qin Shubao and Yuchi Gong, the two generals who had repelled the Jinghe Long Wang before.

At this moment, Yuan Tiangang on the side thought of something, so he spoke up:

"Your Majesty, as far as your humble servant knows, although the Jinghe Long Wang has turned into a ghost, he still has his own will."

Since that is the case, once the Jinghe Long Wang cannot break through the array I have set up, he will inevitably think of other ways.

Even, relying on his former identity as the Jinghe Long Wang, he might go directly into the Netherworld to complain to the King of Hell!

"After all, the Jinghe Long Wang also has a reason. At the beginning, Your Majesty promised the Jinghe Long Wang to hold back Wei Zheng and save his life, but..."

Yuan Tiangang expressed his worries at this moment.

"How unreasonable! What Your Majesty promised has already been done. It was the Jinghe Long Wang's own lack of ability that led to him being beheaded by Wei Zheng. Now he actually blames Your Majesty and even goes to the Netherworld to complain. Where is the logic in that!"

Yuchi Gong was a straightforward person, so he felt very unhappy when he heard this, and even interrupted Yuan Tiangang's words directly.

"Your Majesty, we must guard against it!" Qin Shubao's personality was different from Yuchi Gong's, so he thought more, and reminded Tang Huang Li Shimin.

"Your Majesty, the most important thing is not the Jinghe Long Wang going to the Netherworld to complain, but once the Netherworld takes Your Majesty away, by then, having lost the protection of the dynastic fortune, if Your Majesty faces the Jinghe Long Wang, wouldn't it be..."

Although Yuan Tiangang did not explain his words, he expressed his clear intention.

Tang Huang Li Shimin, hearing that he would be taken into the Netherworld, already felt uneasy in his heart, and then heard that in the Netherworld, he would also lose the protection of the dynastic fortune.

Suddenly, Tang Huang Li Shimin, who had been calm, did not know what to do at this moment.

After all, in the human world, Tang Huang Li Shimin is an emperor whose word is law, but in front of the Heavenly Court and the Netherworld, he, Tang Huang Li Shimin, is just a mortal. ===== CHAPTER 972 =====
