Chapter 170: Heaven is Unfair
The capital of Japan was finally captured. Chen Jiu, along with a group of earthly immortals and children of wealthy families, walked into the city in a mighty manner. When he saw the city, he couldn't help but look strange.
At this moment, there was no one left in the city . The streets were littered with all kinds of debris left behind by the Japanese royal family and the so-called civil and military officials when they fled in panic. The streets looked in a mess.
However, this was not what he found strange.
He actually felt that this place looked familiar!
What's going on? Have I been here in my previous life?
Chen Jiu was just wondering when a terrestrial immortal suddenly exclaimed, "Why does this place look so much like the old city of Chang'an during the Sui and Tang dynasties?"
Another earthly immortal said with a hint of pride: "You are a little ignorant. The capital of Japan was built based on the Chang'an City of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, but its size is less than 30% of that of Chang'an City."
So this is the reason. This place is a bit like the inner city of the Ming Dynasty capital. No wonder he felt a little familiar.
Chen Jiu smiled slightly and said, "Let's go and take a look at their palace."
An earthly immortal said jokingly, "Your Majesty, why don't you go sit on the dragon throne?"
How can you say such nonsense? Do you have any brains?
The other earthly immortals were stunned when they heard this. The group that was originally in high spirits suddenly fell silent.
Uh, this is a joke, how should I respond?
Chen Jiu was stunned for a moment, took a deep breath, and then pretended to be amazed: "The spiritual energy here is so rich, it seems that this is the place where the spiritual energy of Japan gathers. Ancestor Hongyun, how about leaving this capital of Japan to your Qingyang Zhang family to guard?"
Upon hearing this, all the earthly immortals showed a hint of envy.
However, no one is stupid enough to be jealous or even hateful.
There was no way out. The Zhang family of Qingyang clearly surrendered to King Jiushan, and King Jiushan reciprocated by giving the Zhang family of Qingyang countless benefits.
At this moment, the Zhang family of Qingyang has five earthly immortals, and Patriarch Hongyun can wield twenty immortal swords with just a wave of his hand. The Zhang family of is already firmly ranked first among the aristocratic families, and Patriarch Hongyun is probably also firmly ranked first on the immortal list.
What's more, the singing and selling business organized by the Qingyang Zhang family is still the main source of their elixirs and magic weapons. Who would want to provoke the Qingyang Zhang family at this time?
Patriarch Hongyun smiled slightly and said, "Okay, I will order someone to find a hall in the Japanese imperial palace and transform it into the Juxian Pavilion. In the future, we will have a special place for gatherings and singing and selling."
Chen Jiu nodded slightly and said, "It's just right. This place is about the same size as our original camp. The palace and the imperial city will be handed over to the Qingyang Zhang family. Each of you should build your own mansion according to the location of the original camp. I think we will have a long time in Japan."
That’s not ordinary long. We probably will spend our whole life here.
Upon hearing this, all the earth immortals nodded thoughtfully.
Chen Jiu led a group of earth immortals around the Dongying Imperial Palace, and then decided to go to the main hall where the Juxian Pavilion was located. He then waved his hand and said, "Okay, everyone go and build your own mansions. I will send the bat soldiers to investigate everywhere first. Everyone go and rest for three days. After three days, we will decide where to march."
It was easy to fight with King Jiushan. We just practiced formations and magical powers every day. Then, Kyoto, the capital of Japan, was taken down by them inexplicably, and we still had three days to rest!
All the earthly immortals went away leisurely. When Chen Jiu saw that they had all left the palace, he raised his hand and called Luo Li and the others out.
Zhang Wanxia looked up and couldn't help but asked in surprise: "Wow, what is this place, the imperial palace? Why are there so many palaces?"
Chen Jiu smiled slightly and said, "Wrong, this is your home."
Zhang Wanxia couldn't help but ask in confusion: "My home? How can there be so many palaces in my home? I don't even know what my home looks like. Are you kidding me?"
Patriarch Hongyun smiled slightly and said, "Wanxia, this is the Japanese imperial palace. However, Ah Jiu has divided both the imperial city and the imperial palace among us. This will indeed be our home from now on."
Hearing this, Zhang Wanxia couldn't help but said excitedly: "Wow, this is really my home. Come on, sisters, I'll take you to see my home, hahahaha."
Chen Jiu shook his head slightly, then summoned Sun Dasheng and waved his hand, saying, "Go, follow Master's Wife and the others, and don't let them get ambushed."
Patriarch Hongyun looked at the huge back of Sun Dasheng, sighed slightly, and then asked: "Ajiu, is there any good wood over at Jiuling Mountain? I need some here. I have no shortage of gold, silver, copper and iron, but the problem is that Juxian Pavilion cannot be made into a full metal structure, which would be too rustic."
Isn’t this simple?
Chen Jiu said without hesitation: "What kind of wood do you need? Dalbergia, red sandalwood, ebony, mahogany, ironwood, etc. I have all the trees ready. There are also many saplings in my immortal palace that have grown more than ten feet tall."
It’s more than ten meters tall, and you still call it a sapling?
Patriarch Hongyun pondered, "Then let's get some yellow sandalwood, red sandalwood, and black ebony. Each one should be about twenty feet tall, and leave the branches for me as well."
This really shouldn’t be too simple.
Chen Jiu moved his spiritual sense and transferred some wood spiritual energy to the yellow sandalwood, red sandalwood and ebony trees, causing them to grow wildly to more than twenty feet high. He then pulled up the leaves and was about to pull them out, but he found that the place here seemed not big enough.
After all, the branches of a tree that is more than 20 meters high are extremely large when spread out. Three such large trees would definitely not be able to be placed without a space of over a hundred meters in radius.
He said somewhat awkwardly, "I have already prepared the tree, but it is too big to be pulled out in one piece. I also don't know what shape you want to process the material into. Old Ancestor, why don't you go to my Immortal Palace to process it roughly first?"
Patriarch Hongyun nodded without hesitation and said, "Okay!"
Chen Jiu took her into the fairy palace, and she immediately swung out twenty fairy swords and started chopping at the three sandalwood trees with their leaves stripped bare.
With a loud rustling sound, the three sandalwood trees quickly turned into neat piles of logs.
Seeing this, Chen Jiu's spiritual consciousness moved again, and Ancestor Hongyun and piles of logs appeared in front of the hall that was about to be transformed into the Juxian Pavilion.
He waved his hand slightly and said, "Old Ancestor, you go ahead and do your work. I will go and think about how to fight next."
After saying that, he went straight to a study room, went there, sat down cross-legged, and spread out the map of Japan on the low table in front of him to look at it carefully.
There are nearly thirty vassal states in Japan. It shouldn't be too much to attack one per year, right?
This way he could drag it out for nearly thirty years, which should be enough time for him to practice Qi and become a god.
They have taken Kyoto, the capital of Japan, but there are still a few small cities in Yamashiro Kingdom, which should be enough for him to delay for a year.
Anyway, he would not move unless the imperial court sent someone to urge him. If the imperial court sent someone to urge him, he would take a city. This way, Jiajing would have nothing to say.
His calculations were very active, but Jiajing's were also busy.
While the 100,000-strong army was still resting in Kyoto, Japan, something big happened in the Ming Dynasty.
Jiajing is not a person who is easy to deal with, so how could he let them be so comfortable?
That afternoon, he was sitting cross-legged in the main hall of the palace practicing, when Grandmaster Hongyun suddenly walked in hastily, his face full of anger and said, "Ah Jiu, the Crown Prince personally went to Guangping Prefecture and gathered all of our Qingyang Zhang family officials together, scolded them, and then dismissed all of them and said they would be exiled to Japan."
Upon hearing this, Chen Jiu couldn't help but be shocked and asked, "Why is this guy crazy again?"
Patriarch Hongyun snorted coldly, "This guy is not crazy, he has become a god. He just became a god in the morning, and in the afternoon he went to Guangping Prefecture to humiliate our Qingyang Zhang family. How unreasonable!"
Alas, this is to be expected.
This guy exchanged so many Zhenyuan Pills, Peiyuan Pills and Haoyuan Pills just to cultivate and become a god.
Chen Jiu said coldly: "He is clearly trying to intimidate us. Old Ancestor, what do you decide to do?"
Patriarch Hongyun said angrily, "He wants to drive our Qingyang Zhang clan out of the Ming Dynasty in the Middle Earth. I don't want to do what he wants. How about I let the clan members who remain in the Middle Earth go to the New Territory to hide first? Anyway, our territory there is big enough."
Chen Jiu sighed slightly and said, "This guy was extremely arrogant before he became a god. Who knows how arrogant he will be after he becomes a god. If he gets mad, he will most likely lead his army to attack the new domain."
Patriarch Hongyun could not help but snort coldly: "If this guy becomes the emperor, the Ming Dynasty will definitely be finished. We are fighting the Japanese pirates in Japan, and he is actually humiliating our family at home. Who is willing to fight for such an emperor? Who dares to fight for him!"
Chen Jiu heard this and an idea came to him: "We can use this incident to criticize the imperial court and make the people support us."
Upon hearing this, Patriarch Hongyun suppressed his anger and nodded slightly, saying, "Yes, the will of the people is of vital importance. Since they act so recklessly, let us let the people of the world see their ugly faces."
As they were discussing, the old ancestor Dingjun of the Yuyang Zhang clan suddenly came in with a group of earthly immortals and shouted, "Your Highness, the current emperor has issued an order to remove all of our Yuyang Zhang clan officials. We fought hard for them in Japan, but they treated us like this. It's really too much."
All the earth immortals nodded and said, "Yes, yes, all the officials of our family have been removed by the imperial court. This is too much. Your Majesty, what should we do?"
This guy becomes extremely arrogant once he succeeds!
Okay, it would be best if they all withdrew, and see what the common people think and see if these wealthy families will get mad with anger.
Chen Jiu nodded slightly and said, "Well, I already know. It seems that the imperial court is going to take action against you. You should move all your people to Japan. I will send 10,000 more bat soldiers to your post stations in Nanzhili and Beizhili. If you are worried, you can go back to pick them up yourself."
It would be better for these people not to stay in Middle-earth.
At the instigation of the earthly immortals, Patriarch Dingjun carefully asked, "My Lord, can we move all our people to the new domain?"
You guys are dreaming. If you didn't completely side with me at the beginning, you have no chance now!
Chen Jiu said solemnly, "Do you think the Imperial Court will let go of the New Territory? They will most likely find an excuse to attack the New Territory. The Crown Prince has become a god. Tell me, how can I resist him?"
ah!
Upon hearing this, Patriarch Dingjun was stunned for a moment, then he sighed helplessly and said, "It seems that we can only move all ."
Hehe, I knew you would be scared.
However, the new territory really needs to find a way to defend it quickly, otherwise, once the imperial army arrives, they may not be able to hold out.
That night, Chen Jiu hurried back to Jiuling Mountain. He was about to summon the old fox fairy, Zhang Shixin, Yu Qi and others to discuss matters, but he found that the old fox fairy was standing on the top of Lianshen Peak with a familiar figure.
Father-in-law!
He quickly landed and asked carefully, "Uncle, why are you here? What's the matter?"
Luo Menghong looked up at the sky and sighed, "Heaven is so unfair. Even a bastard like the Crown Prince can become a god. I really can't wait any longer."
Uh, you know that the world is unfair, yet you dare to become a god at this time?
As two people were allowed to become gods in succession without any heavenly calamity being brought down, the divine weapon of heaven must be howling with frustration!
