Chapter 242: Discussing the Expedition
"Furthermore, there must be restrictions on the cultivation techniques practiced by second and third-class citizens; they cannot be better than those practiced by first-class citizens."
"However, there is no need for restrictions on daily necessities. Since they are all citizens of our Great Han, we must provide this most basic guarantee."
As Liu Bian's voice fell, the assembled officials were all filled with shock.
If things were truly as Liu Bian said, then in the future, the most noble people in the Great Han would be the first-class citizens possessing Yan and Huang bloodlines.
The Ministers of the Six Ministries and the Cabinet Ministers all responded loudly to Liu Bian with solemn expressions:
"We, your subjects, will strictly follow Your Majesty's decree!"
Immediately, a sharp glint flashed in Liu Bian's eyes as he said to the assembled officials:
"Very well, let us pause the discussion on the affairs of our Great Han's main world for now."
"It is time for us to discuss matters outside our Great Han's main world."
Seeing Liu Bian's majestic air, the hundred officials dared not be negligent and hurriedly responded respectfully in unison:
"We, your subjects, respectfully listen to Your Majesty's holy decree!"
Seeing this, Liu Bian nodded with satisfaction and continued:
"When I first recovered the Great Han, I told you that our Great Han Empire would not merely dominate this world."
"I will lead you to traverse the heavens and wage war across the heavens and myriad realms."
"Together with you, I will plant the Great Han's dragon flag across the heavens and myriad realms."
"Wherever the sun and moon shine, and wherever the rivers flow, all shall be Han territory!"
Liu Bian's tone carried a strong sense of arrogance as he spoke majestically to the assembled officials.
Upon Liu Bian's words, everyone in the court was infected by his tone.
"Long live Your Majesty! Long live the Great Han!"
"Long live Your Majesty! Long live the Great Han!"
At this moment, the officials could hardly hide the excitement in their hearts.
"Finally, we are going to start conquering other worlds!"
The Ministers of the Six Ministries, the commanders of the six major legions, and others were all secretly excited.
Liu Bian looked at the excited officials and raised his hand slightly, and the officials instantly quieted down.
Subsequently, Liu Bian swept his sharp gaze over the officials and said majestically:
"I presume some of you present already know that I have been to another world once."
"There are still some beloved subjects who do not know about this. From now on, the Six Ministries will uniformly inform you about the affairs of other worlds."
Hearing Liu Bian's words, the officials were all somewhat excited.
One must know that at this time, in the Great Han court, apart from promotions and titles, other ordinary gold and silver objects were no longer enough to move them.
Unless there were treasures that could enhance cultivation.
However, at this time, the treasures that could enhance cultivation were all in Liu Bian's hands.
The Great Han's main world had not yet produced any heavenly materials or earthly treasures.
Apart from these, there was only reputation.
And in the Great Han's main world, there were no longer any opportunities to quickly enhance one's reputation.
However, other worlds were different.
Just imagine, if one day they led the Great Han soldiers to conquer other worlds and bring them under the Great Han.
How could they not be moved by such a great event that could bring glory to their ancestors and leave their names in history?
"Your Majesty, if we are to launch an expedition to other worlds, my Shenwu Legion is willing to serve as the vanguard!"
Suddenly, the commander of the Shenwu Legion, Lü Bu, said with a fierce expression on his heroic face, requesting the duty from Liu Bian.
Seeing this scene, the other commanders of the six major legions cursed inwardly.
"Cao Le, Lü Bu, that bastard, has snatched the lead again!"
"I was careless. This Lü Bu usually looks like a brute, I didn't expect him to be so cunning!"
"Damn it, he's showing off again!"
Subsequently, the other commanders of the six major legions stepped out one after another, requesting the duty from Liu Bian:
"Your Majesty, my Qinglong Legion is willing to serve as the vanguard to conquer other worlds for Your Majesty!"
At this moment, Guan Yu's face also carried a hint of urgency as he loudly requested the duty from Liu Bian.
"Your Majesty, my White Tiger Legion..."
"My Vermillion Bird Legion..."
"My Xuanwu Legion..."
"My Qilin Legion is willing to serve as the vanguard for Your Majesty to conquer other worlds!"
One by one, the legion generals excitedly requested the duty, and the entire court resounded with the arguing voices of the generals.
Everyone wanted to fight to be the vanguard for the expedition to other worlds. After all, there was only one other world, and it was impossible for all six major legions to go out at once.
If they didn't fight for it now, they would lose this precious opportunity.
"Enough! The court is becoming like a vegetable market. What kind of decorum is this!"
Seeing this scene, Liu Bian's majestic handsome face showed a hint of anger as he scolded the martial generals.
"We, your subjects, have overstepped. We beg Your Majesty's forgiveness!"
Liu Bian's voice, like a thunderclap, echoed in the hearts of the generals.
Immediately, they all prostrated themselves in fear, full of awe toward Liu Bian.
Seeing this scene, Xun Yu, Cao Cao, and other Ministers of the Six Ministries, Cabinet members, and other officials pleaded for them one after another:
"Your Majesty, the generals only wish to share Your Majesty's worries and perform meritorious service for our Great Han Empire. We beg Your Majesty to forgive the generals for their overstepping!"
Hearing this, Liu Bian's expression softened considerably.
He had no intention of punishing them. Immediately, he followed their words and said to the commanders:
"This time, since you beloved subjects have pleaded for them, I will forgive you this once."
"If there is a next time, do not blame Me for punishing you without mercy!"
Seeing this, Lü Bu and the others hurriedly expressed their gratitude:
"We, your subjects, thank Your Majesty for your grace in not punishing us!"
At the same time, they quieted down, not daring to act recklessly again.
"Now, I will tell you the basic situation of that world."
"Then we will decide on the matter of sending troops."
"The world we are conquering this time is called the Shen Diao World, and its world level is a low-grade Middle Martial World."
"The strongest individuals are a few people whose strength has reached the Innate Third Heaven."
"In the Shen Diao World, there are various kinds of martial artists."
"However, the levels of the cultivation techniques practiced by these martial artists are relatively low, not even as high as those practiced by the common people of our Great Han."
"Moreover, their cultivation levels are generally relatively low, mostly below the Postnatal Seventh Heaven."
"Furthermore, there are a few slightly more powerful countries: Mongolia, Southern Song..."
Liu Bian recounted the basic situation of the Shen Diao World to the officials with a solemn expression.
"Your Majesty, having heard Your Majesty's account, your subject can clearly see that this Shen Diao World is a world where martial arts are quite prevalent."
"However, the strength of these martial artists is still somewhat low compared to the generals of our Great Han Empire."
"What your subject is more concerned about is whether the martial generals and armies of these countries practice martial arts?"
At this moment, Guo Jia, acting as the military advisor, asked Liu Bian with a solemn expression.
"They do not practice them."
"In the Shen Diao World, martial arts inheritance emphasizes master-disciple transmission, and the inheritance of martial arts techniques is very strict."
Liu Bian looked at the civil and military officials below and spoke slowly. ===== CHAPTER 243 =====
