Chapter 11: Ascension Conference!
Oriental Palace!
The good news came from all directions in the Eastern Fiefdom, and all the officials showed joy.
"Is there a place where the imperial examinations are impassable now?" Wang Xiong looked at the group of officials in front of him.
"Lord Wang, everything went well in the primary election of the imperial examination, not to mention our relationship, because the officials who entered the imperial examination surrendered to us and knew the purpose of the imperial examination, they worked harder, how could there be any reason to stop it?" An official laughed.
"Of course they have to work hard, they just surrendered to us, they haven't gained a firm foothold, and they don't show some merit, how can they do it?" Wang Tiance said with a smile.
"Yes, moreover, those who have been demoted, some people have come to surrender, especially the city lord of Dongxin City, Lord Wang, shall we accept it?" An official said excitedly.
Now, the situation is very good, the officials in the palace used to be only half of Pang Taiwei, but now, they have surpassed Pang Taiwei, and they are still increasing.
"Collect, why not? It's best to take away Captain Pang's men! Wang Xiong said with a smile.
"Yes, yes, yes, let Captain Pang have no one available, let Captain Pang get out!" The crowd burst into laughter.
"But, Lord Wang, if you accept their surrender, then after Captain Pang leaves, the position of these people will ......!" A child of the Wang family said worriedly.
Yes, the imperial examination is to fill the positions of these people. Moreover, not to mention the imperial examination, in the hearts of this official, those positions have already been divided. Let those people surrender and there will be no vacant positions in the future, what should I do?
"After Captain Pang left, everything is not a matter of this king's words?" Wang Xiong said lightly.
"Yes, yes, drive Captain Pang away first!" The officials immediately laughed.
In the eyes of everyone, Wang Xiong's words were already obvious, this was to wait for Captain Pang to drive away, and then clean them up. What else are you worried about?
Wang Xiong looked at everyone with a smile, but a cold light flashed in his heart. If you have merit, the king will naturally reward you, and even double the reward, but if you are too greedy and take the fiefdom and official position as the wealth of your own family, then the king will not agree.
"Lord Wang, the opening of Enke is to fill the position of the officials of the Pang Taiwei faction, and now everyone knows about it, and after the officials of the Pang Taiwei faction surrendered, they found that Enke had not decreased, would they be worried? If they guess what we are going to do, they will ......! Wang Tiance frowned.
"Enke can't stop, as soon as Enke stops, it will give Captain Pang a chance to breathe, and the officials of Captain Pang's faction will have no pressure, only if the pressure continues to increase, they will continue to come to Toucheng, as for the suspicion of the Toucheng? It's okay, start now, record the merits! Wang Xiong said in a deep voice.
"Record merit?" Everyone was slightly stunned.
"That's right, record all the credits made by everyone to force out Captain Pang, the credit for killing the enemy with embers, the credit for the cooperation of officials from all over the country, and the credit for the efforts of officials who surrender to Cheng, all of which are recorded! After Captain Pang leaves, he will be rewarded for his meritorious deeds! Wang Xiong said solemnly.
"Reward for meritorious deeds?" The officials' brows furrowed.
How do you talk about meritorious deeds? The positions of those Pang Taiwei faction officials have already been decided, how can they be rewarded? In the hearts of everyone, the power of the Eastern Fiefdom has actually been tacitly divided by itself during this time. What will be the reward for meritorious deeds at that time?
The officials immediately frowned and wanted to object.
"It's just a reassurance to the officials who surrendered, do you really think that this merit record is so important?" Wang Xiong smiled.
The officials were stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized.
"Yes, yes, it's just to appease those officials who defected, haha, a group of people who betrayed the fiefdom, and they still hope to turn over in the future?" An official burst out laughing.
"The prince's strategy is superb, I admire it!" The officials burst out laughing.
Just a scam? Naturally, the officials were not worried about anything.
"For the sake of being more convincing, remember, as in the imperial examination, there must not be a trace of fraud, in case those who surrender to sincerity are suspicious. Whoever has any merits will record them, and they must not be presumptuous or degraded! Wang Xiong said solemnly.
To make the scam more like? The officials burst into laughter.
"Don't worry, this merit book, absolutely no one dares to be a ghost!" The officials immediately laughed.
Wang Xiong nodded and looked at everyone with a smile.
Swindle? Do you really think it's a scam? The merit book cannot be used in full, but it is also a fundamental part of Wang Xiong's next governance of the Eastern Fiefdom.
As soon as Captain Pang left, this merit book was the root of determining the fate of all officials.
You officials, as long as you work hard, there are great political merits in the merit book, and you will never be stingy to give heavy rewards, but if you just want to intrigue and reap benefits from your own family, and do not do anything, then I am sorry, although you will not raid your home, but at least, you are not qualified for your current position, and the fiefdom regime should not think about it, and enjoy the happiness in the clan.
The great credit is in front of him, cherish it, and work hard, Wang Xiong naturally treats it well. But if you don't know how to cherish it, then no one can help you.
As for the officials who defected? As long as the merits are enough, Wang Xiong will not be stingy with the bestowal, a court, but there is no need for a voice, different voices, in order to consolidate his power even more.
Wang Xiong appeased the ministers, explained something, and let them go about their work.
Watching the officials leave, Wang Xiong took a deep breath: "The Eastern Fiefdom is really in short supply of talents!" ”
Wang Xiong sat in the main hall in contemplation. There were three more people outside the hall, Wang Zhongquan, Wang Tiance, and Jumen.
Wang Zhongquan grabbed a scroll, followed by Wang Tiance and Jumen.
"Lord Wang, there was a messenger from the Chilian Holy Land just now, and he left after delivering the letter!" Wang Zhongquan stepped forward and handed over the scroll.
"The person who delivered the letter, before leaving, also said, please go to the Red Lian Holy Land with me, Jumen, and Ember? Lord, why is this? Wang Tiance was also at a loss.
"Oh?" Wang Xiong took the scroll letter with a hint of doubt and read it.
--------
On the eighteenth day of the first month, the Red Lian Holy Land opened the 'Ascension Conference', and the Nine Dragons Dan furnace of the deity puppet was refined' in the furnace. The anger has been burning for nine years, the eighteenth day of the first month is opened, and the martial saints of the world are invited to come to watch the ceremony.
--------
"What is written, sir?" The giant gate was also curious.
Wang Xiong handed over the invitation.
Wang Zhongquan and Wang Tiance immediately took a closer look.
"Ascension Conference? Ascension elixir? It's actually the elixir of ascension? Really fake! Ascension Immortal Pill, the world is hard to find, the peak of the Martial Saint wants to become an immortal, and it takes a tribulation to become an immortal, many Martial Saints eventually die under the Heavenly Tribulation, but the Ascension Elixir can help the Martial Saint cross the tribulation? This is the treasure of the world's martial saints! Moreover, the ascension elixir is the supreme yang elixir, even if the immortals swallow it, it will have great benefits! Giant Gate exclaimed.
"Ascension elixir? Nine Dragons Dan Furnace? Wang Tiance's face changed.
"It's the master's Dan furnace, it's the master's!" Wang Zhongquan's face sank.
"My daddy?" Wang Xiong's eyes narrowed.
"Yes, Jiulong Dan Furnace, Lord Wang, have you forgotten? In the past, the master never allowed you to go to the Danfang! Wang Zhongquan explained.
Wang Xiong raised his eyebrows, there was indeed such a thing, at that time, there was a rolling heat wave in a large hall, Wang Hong was worried about hurting Wang Xiong, so he sent people to guard outside and did not allow Wang Xiong to enter.
"When the lord was ten years old, he opened a furnace of Dan! This furnace Dan will be practiced for nine years, and it is said that it is given to a senior brother of the master, called Chiyunzi, and after the death of the master, the Dan furnace disappeared. Wang Zhongquan smiled bitterly.
"Chiyunzi?" Wang Xiong's brows furrowed slightly, and he was not impressed.
However, Wang Xiong also heard a hint of surprise, this is a furnace of pills refined for his senior brother, it takes nine years to open the furnace, and his father knows that he is going to die early, and he can't wait for the day when this furnace pill will be opened, why do he still have to refine this furnace pill?
"It's called Chiyunzi, I really want to hear the old man mention it once, and I want to ask Chiyunzi to take care of the prince's ......!" Wang Zhongquan said bitterly.
In an instant, Wang Xiong guessed that Wang Honglian's ascension elixir was used to give Chiyunzi benefits, and asked Chiyunzi to protect himself after his father's death, but Chiyunzi did not leave to protect himself at all. Instead, he left early.
"Chiyunzi? Scold! Wang Xiong showed a sneer.
"That Dan furnace, I heard that it is the most precious treasure of the old prince!" Wang Tiance frowned.
"Well, I've also heard the old man mention that this is the best treasure he got in the Shengdan Holy Land!" Wang Zhongquan also nodded.
"Chilian Holy Land, please invite this king to participate in the Immortal Ascension Conference?" Wang Xiong's brows furrowed slightly.
"Lord Wang, and us!" Wang Tiance also spoke.
"Lord Wang, the Holy Land of Chilian, but the land of great evil, you can't go! They definitely want to harm the prince! Wang Zhongquan immediately spoke.
Wang Tiance and Jumen flashed with expectation in their eyes.
Ascension elixir! As long as it is a martial saint, it is extremely desired. Wang Tiance also knew that the Heavenly Tribulation of the Martial Saint's promotion to Immortal was only one-tenth of what he could do. But the ascension elixir is a guarantee. Who doesn't want it?
"Go down first, and let this king think!" Wang Xiong said.
"Yes!" Everyone slowly withdrew from the main hall with their own thoughts.
But soon, Wang Zhongquan returned to the main hall again.
"Elder Wang?" Wang Xiong looked at Wang Zhongquan suspiciously.
"Lord Wang, just now when the old slave returned to the room, another arrow book was shot!" Wang Zhongquan stepped forward and handed out an arrow.
"Oh?" Wang Xiong was slightly stunned.
In the past, before the two holy sons of the Chilian Holy Land attacked, someone reported to Wang Zhongquan with an arrow book, and it was speculated that it was Wang Xiong's uncle, but now there is another one.
"The old slave checked, it is made of the same material as the original arrow, and the material of the note tied to this arrow is also the same!" Wang Zhongquan handed over the note.
"It's the same guy who shot it at the beginning!" Wang Xiong opened the note in confusion.
------
The Holy Lord of Chilian invited the martial saints of the Quartet to gather in the Holy Land of Chilian to participate in the Immortal Ascension Conference. It's a conspiracy, don't get involved!
------
"Invite the Quartet Martial Saint? In this way, it is not only the Eastern fiefdom! Wang Xiong's eyes narrowed.
"Lord Wang, what does the letter say?" Wang Zhongquan showed a hint of doubt.
Wang Xiong handed over the note.
Wang Zhongquan also frowned deeply after reading it: "Lord Wang, this is to remind you of the danger, don't participate!" ”
Wang Xiong was silent for a moment: "Go, call Xiao Si, this king has something to ask him!" ”
"Yes!" Wang Zhongquan nodded suspiciously.
Soon, the Holy Son of Sixin was invited to Wang Xiong's hall, during this time, Sixin did not interfere in Wang Xiong's government affairs, but from Wang Xiong's various policies, he also saw Wang Xiong's power.
"Sir, are you looking for me?" The Holy Son of the Heart looked curious.
"Xiao Si, do you know Chiyunzi?" Wang Xiong stared at the Holy Son of the Heart.
"Chiyunzi?" The Holy Son's face changed suddenly.
"What? Inconvenient to say? Wang Xiong showed a hint of doubt.
The Holy Son of the Heart stared at Wang Xiong for a while, and finally showed a trace of bitterness and shook his head: "No, it's just that this is the secret of the Chilian Holy Land, and I didn't expect Mr. to know it!" ”
"Oh?" Wang Xiong looked at the Holy Son of the Heart suspiciously.
"There are two major Hakqing elders in the Chilian Holy Land, one is Mr. Lu Yanglu, and the other is this Chiyunzi, an immortal!" The Holy Son of the Heart smiled bitterly.
"Immortals? Chiyunzi? He actually went to the Chilian Holy Land as a guest? Wang Xiong said in surprise.
Chi Yunzi is Wang Hong's senior brother, so isn't that a disciple of the Holy Lord of the Shengdan Holy Land? How to be a guest in the Red Lian Holy Land?
"Chiyunzi Keqing, even in the Chilian Holy Land, he never shows up, sir, how do you know?" The Holy Son of the Heart said curiously.
"He stole his father's Nine Dragons Pill Furnace! An invitation was just delivered! Wang Xiong said in a deep voice.
As he spoke, Wang Xiong handed out the invitation.
