Chapter five hundred and ninety-eight left, left
180,000 miles away from Anyi, and among the mountains, a fertile grassland is tens of thousands of miles in size.
This is the fief of a third-rank marquis of the former Great Jin Divine Kingdom and the current Qingqiu Divine Kingdom.
In the middle of the grassland, a majestic city of hundreds of miles is towering. The contemporary head of the tribe of the third-rank title of the "Tianmahou" clan of the Qingqiu God Kingdom, Ximenyou, the current Tianmahou, stood in front of his mansion, looking up at the medium-sized warship a hundred feet above the ground.
Huang Lang stood on the bow of the warship with his hands behind his back, looking down at Ximen You.
"Tianmahou, the prince attaches great importance to you. He not only values you, Tianmahou, but also the 'Tianma Heavy Cavalry' inherited by the Ximen clan. The prince wants to form a powerful assault cavalry, and the Tianma Heavy Cavalry of the Ximen clan should be the core."
Huang Lang smiled and looked at the book of recruitment in Ximen's hand: "After signing the book of recruitment, everyone will become colleagues in the future. Your family and the fiefdom of your family are all in the prince's territory, and you will live a happy life for the prince in the future... The duke is expected."
Ximen's friend held the Zhengbi Shu in one hand and looked at Huang Lang coldly: "Master Huang Lang, you said to me that the Duke is expected... This is too far away. How many people have you told me today if you want to stop hunger when you draw a cake?"
Huang Lang smiled without saying anything. He really said this to several marquis with similar identities and status as Ximen You.
Ximenyou laughed: "Look, look, it's true... Master Huang Lang's method is amazing. I'm just curious about one thing. The prince's own fiefdom is only in Jiuzhou. If his promise comes true, if more than a dozen dukes emerge in our wealthy families in Jiuzhou, will the prince take out all his territory and give it to me to wait?"
Huang Lang squinted his eyes and looked at Ximenyou. Tonight, Ximenyou was the first to ask this question.
After pondering for a moment, Huang Lang smiled and said, "Horse Tianma thought that our prince will only have the land of Jiuzhou in the future?"
Ximen You also laughed: "What else? What Lord Huang Lang thinks? What the prince did today... is so earth-shaking and so like the sound of a collapse of heaven, I can hear it clearly."
The sky was filled with dark clouds, and a loud thunder came from the black clouds.
Ximenyou pointed to the direction of Anyi City and sighed heavily: "The prince himself... is in an awkward situation. I heard that since he received the title of Qingqiu City and returned to Yuzhou, the prince has been assassinated more than a dozen times."
"The loyal ministers of the previous dynasty will not let the prince go... And the princes and ministers of the Qingqiu Divine Kingdom, listen, listen, what did our prince do just now when you came to submit the book of collection and registration?"
"So majestic and domineering. He beat almost all the important officials of the court alone!"
"Yes, with the magic weapon in the country in hand, as a prince, this is enough to become the foundation of his life. What else should he be afraid of?"
Shaking his head, Ximen You sighed: "But, are we afraid? Lord Huang Lang, to be honest, Prince An is now a huge fire pit... You won't force us to jump into the fire pit, right?"
Ximen's friend sighed and threw the book of encyclopedia back to Huang Lang, and he rejected Wu Tie's encyclopedia.
Ximen’s friends and the Ximen family members behind him were all cursing in their hearts. They were blaming Linghu Qingqing for why they wanted to put Wu Tie’s fiefdom on their own, making their family helpless and become the subordinate of “King An”.
What happened today is clear.
In the future, the Ximen family will not live a good life in Yuzhou. If they reject Wu Tie's enlistment, do they still want to have a good life?
But, it's better than relying on Wu Tie?
Rejecting Wu Tie just offended a prince.
If you promise Wu Tie, you will offend the entire Qingqiu Divine Kingdom.
The two evils are the least. Ximen's friend gritted his teeth and rejected Wu Tie's enthronement. He and many of the Ximen family's tribesmen seemed to have seen the scene of the Ximen family's industry being frantically suppressed by the An Wang Mansion in the future.
After all, this Prince An has never been a kind person.
When he was Duke of Yuzhou, he killed so many wealthy families in Yuzhou. There was only a third-rank marquis family that he dared not touch?
The Ximen family's biggest backer in the court... Their family's biggest backer in the court was a prince of the Sima family. However, the Great Jin God Kingdom was destroyed, and the Sima family had long been moved to the fiefdom of the "Jin State" to live in a concentrated manner. The Ximen family's backer was useless. What would they do to deal with Wu Tie?
Huang Lang caught the book of recruitment thrown back by Ximen You and looked at him very seriously.
"Think carefully? Tianmahou, don't let our prince down... If the Ximen family defected to our prince, they would definitely not treat you badly in the future. For example, in the refining of the starlight tonight, the prince will open a special passage to give you a hundred times the benefits."
Huang Lang pointed to the thick black clouds on the top of his head, as thick as a black cloud that would wrap the whole world.
There are more than 120 heavenly artifacts floating above the Tianma Hou Mansion, which are the heavenly artifacts that the predecessors of the Ximen clan have worked hard to sacrifice over the years. With the foundation of a third-grade marquis family, they can gather materials and forge more than 120 heavenly artifacts, which is already the limit of their power.
The Ximen family is different from the Lan family to which Lan Changqing belongs. The Ximen family is considered a general. They are good at fighting and are not good at management. Although their title is much higher than that of the Lan family and their fiefdom is much larger, in terms of financial resources, the Ximen family is much weaker.
In particular, the Ximen family also had to raise soldiers. Their private army, the Tianma heavy cavalry, were elite heavy cavalry that Wu Tie had a little coveted.
And the Lan family... The Lan family has raised some servants and guards, that's all, and the consumption of financial resources is not the same level.
If more than 120 magical artifacts of heaven can be refined by enough star power, it is very likely that they will turn acquired into innate, breed enough spirituality, and transform into innate spiritual weapons, and their power can be at least three or five times higher.
The Ximen family's high-end combat power can be improved several times as a whole, which is a great leap forward for the entire family's heritage.
But if you missed the grace of the gods and missed the starlight tempering of these seven nights, you still don’t know how much time it will take to advance to these more than 120 magic weapons of heaven.
Ximen's heart felt a little sick. He looked at Huang Lang angrily and said in a deep voice: "Can you be the King An? Can you still cover the sky with one hand? We have seven days... Even if we waste one day or two days, we still have enough time to temper the magical weapons."
Huang Lang looked at Ximenyou deeply: "What Tianmahou means is that you want to leave the land of Jiuzhou and go to another place to refine the divine weapons?"
Ximen's face thrust.
Huang Lang smiled slightly: "The prince said, those who have left these nights should not come back."
Huang Lang threw it lightly, and Zheng Pishu shone with a bright light, flew back to the miserable Ximen Friend, and quietly suspended in front of him.
"The prince said that the one who signed the letter of requisition for these seven nights shining with stars is the prince's loyal minister. The prince will never treat them unfairly."
"Even if the person who has not signed the registration letter, as long as he stays at his home peacefully, he will be a kind person. The prince will never treat the kind person who is calm and complacent... Of course, he must be a 'being at his own heart'!"
"As for those who are unwilling to sign the registration letter, they also took their tribe members and the divine artifacts of the heavenly way in the clan to go outside to receive the starlight refining... Haha, as the prince's lords' ministers on the ground, it would be fine if they were unwilling to serve the prince, but they also privately accumulate magical weapons and accumulate military strength... What do they want to do? Rebel?"
Huang Lang's mouth twitched and smiled as strange as a weasel who wished the little hen a New Year.
"Tianmahou, the head of the Ximen family, think carefully... and think carefully... Well, are you willing to be the prince's loyal ministers? Or are you kind people in the prince's territory? Or are you... a traitor with ill-gotten plots?"
Ximen You's body was stiff, and the many members of the Ximen family behind him were stiff, and they couldn't speak for a long time.
"Think about it very much, think about it very much..." Huang Lang persuaded seriously: "The prince attaches great importance to the Tianma Heavy Cavalry. The prince also attaches great importance to the ability of the Ximen family to tame the fighting beast mounts and train cavalry. After all, the Ximen family is the only one on the prince's territory!"
"Precisely because of the importance..., the prince doesn't want any surprises." Huang Lang looked at Ximen's friend with a smile: "I don't want any surprises at all."
Ximenyou asked Huang Lang in an extremely heavy tone: "What if, if I, if I, with my tribe members, have to leave this place where dark clouds cover the sky, and have to refine the divine weapons of the heavenly way that my ancestors have survived from generation to generation into innate spiritual weapons?"
Huang Lang looked at Ximen’s friend with a smile: “Didn’t you say it just now? If Tianma Hou really does this, he will never come back… This Tianma Prairie, the countless war beast mounts on this prairie, as well as the Ximen family’s houses, land, mountains, forests, and mines are all owned by the prince.”
A young man from the Ximen family looked like he was just ten years old. He rushed out of the clan crowd with anger and pointed at Huang Lang and scolded sternly: "But why? This Tianma Grassland is the family business that our Ximen family has accumulated for the divine kingdom for generations!"
Huang Lang tilted his head and looked at the young man: "The family business that has been accumulated for generations... I dare to ask, which country did your Ximen family make contributions for?"
The young people in the Ximen family suddenly turned pale, and Ximen You and others were all stiff and speechless.
Huang Lang said calmly: "Now, this place of Jiuzhou is the fief of our prince, you must remember it."
"Why can our prince get the fiefdom of this Jiuzhou? Because our prince has truly made great contributions to the Qingqiu Divine Kingdom and eliminated the most destructive remnants of the previous dynasty, the traitor!"
"And you have not achieved any achievements!"
"You think that with a light letter of loyalty, your Majesty can accept you today? Haha, it's a joke!"
"Look clearly, see clearly, how many people have no fiefdoms, freshly released royal relatives, and their eyes are red, and they have good territory with good water and water?"
"In addition to seeking over to our prince, if you, the Tianmahou family, do not give up your ancestral property and are unwilling to become a civilian, you will sooner or later be destroyed. Do you believe it?"
"You may not believe it...but you can think about it yourself, how much faith does Your Majesty have in you?"
"Haha, now His Majesty is busy dealing with the invasion of the Great Martial God Kingdom, and he has no time to pay attention to you, the title left by the previous dynasty..."
"But as this young man said, you have served for the Kingdom of God for generations, and the ancestors of all generations have obtained this fiefdom."
"Your ancestors are loyal to the previous dynasty... not Qingqiu Divine Kingdom!"
"The enlistment of books is here... think clearly and think carefully." Huang Lang looked at Ximenyou with a smile: "Tianmahou, in the territory of our prince, according to the customs of various vassal states, we naturally have to establish military headquarters. The left prime minister of the military headquarters has already chosen, but among the halls under the jurisdiction of the military headquarters, the master of the "Tianma Hall" and the Tianma Heavy Cavalry Legion, the position is waiting for a vacant position."
"You...you must...consider...clearly...think...clearly!" Huang Lang warned Ximen with one word, one word, very slowly and seriously.
The warship suddenly soared into the air and quickly sank into the black clouds.
A huge vortex was visible in the dark clouds, and the warship was swallowed in one bite.
Black clouds cover the land of hundreds of states, and where the black clouds cover, Wu Tie can use the power of the Divine Whip to move the battleships he sent out in the void and appear at will anywhere under the black cloud.
Otherwise, with the men he sent out, it would be impossible to visit the wealthy families on the territory of Jiuzhou overnight.
A long night, but also a short night.
When the starlight in the sky gradually stopped, a hazy dark curtain gradually spread from the extreme height of the sky, blocking the stars and moon behind, Huang Lang, who had been busy all night, finally stopped.
On Wu Tie's Jiuzhou fiefdom, there were more than 30 second-rank and third-rank dukes, and several large families in the fiefdom were also granted titles. They also left their fiefdoms, and took the core clan members and the divine artifacts left by the ancestors in the clan to sacrifice and refine the heavenly artifacts left by the ancestors in the clan.
Some families of marquis and titles hesitated for a while and left.
Among the families with earls, only a very small number of families with strong in-laws, or a large family or branches of major forces have left.
Others, including the most hesitant Lan Changqing and others, gritted their teeth and bit their fingertips. They covered their blood fingerprints on the Zhengbi Book made by Wu Tie's secret technique... After hesitating for a while, Lan Changqing and other more particular people still used a brush and seriously wrote down their names and family backgrounds on the Zhengbi Book.
In fact, when I put fingerprints on the registration book, I feel like I am signing a contract for selling my body.
It's better to sign with a brush and be a little decent.
