Xiao Cui glanced at it inadvertently.

Then he calmly looked back.

She thought to herself: "Your Majesty's behavior is really alluring. Not to mention the man, even I glanced at it and felt thirsty... However, that god Leihou is so brave! In this deserted study, I

We are both women, so we don’t dare to take another look, but the Marquis dares to stare at the empress in the hall..."

Xiao Cui kept shaking the round fan in her hand, swallowed secretly, thought about it, took a deep breath, and after she calmed down, she said:

"The empress is like a fairy in the sky. She is so beautiful that she is different from ordinary people. I believe that no one who sees her will dare to take a second look!"

"But God Thunder Marquis...how dared to look at the empress in such a brazen manner, it can be seen that the Marquis...he has very...thoughts about the empress! How dare he risk the disapproval of the world..."

After Xiaocui finished speaking, she carefully observed Concubine You's reaction.

What she said was very explicit.

But I saw that Concubine You seemed to be enjoying the food?

Xiao Cui was relieved secretly and continued: "I just don't know if Mr. Hou... has enough courage..."

"Huh? If you have something to say, just say it. There's no need to be secretive."

"Yes, empress!"

Xiaocui bowed before continuing: "I just don't know if the Marquis has enough courage to do something to the empress..."

"presumptuous!"

Concubine You suddenly stood up and scolded Xiaocui angrily.

"Your Majesty..." Xiaocui's knees softened and she immediately fell to her knees, feeling as if she was in a state of shock.

"Hey, that's all, get up!" Concubine You waved her hand and sat back on the chair.

"Slave... thank you, Your Majesty!" Xiaocui stood up.

"Xiao Cui, please don't mention this matter again. Zhu Aiqing is the minister of the court, and I... that's all, to be like this... I am very satisfied in my heart, and I can't go any further!"

"It's your Majesty, I know your mistake!"

…

It has been two days since Zhu Xiuyuan returned to Beijing.

There is no sign that "the five southeastern states are about to start a rebellion".

"It's no better than before. If any of the five southeastern states dare to rebel, I, the Divine Thunder Army, will teach you a lesson and start a new life!"

Zhu Xiuyuan once made such bold statements.

This is "strategic contempt".

However, Zhu Xiuyuan is not an arrogant person, and he still needs to pay attention to his tactics.

The way he attaches importance to it is to take time to go to the Divine Thunder Army camp every day.

Lin Bochang, Huang Zhigao, Wu Shaoguang, Liu Anping and others all felt a sigh of relief after being promoted to deputy generals!

They desperately need a big fight to prove something.

First, prove that they are qualified for the position of lieutenant general.

Second, it proves that the Divine Thunder Army is the most powerful elite of the Chen Kingdom, the Changning Imperial Army? Nothing.

That’s right!

Since a few days ago, the Changning Imperial Army has been coming frequently to cause trouble.

They say something like "The Changning Imperial Army is the most powerful elite of the Chen Kingdom", "The Divine Thunder Army can only be ranked second at most", "New weapons can play their greatest role only in the hands of our Changning Imperial Army", etc.

These provocative words can be regarded as irritating Lin Bochang and others to screams.

So Zhu Xiuyuan took advantage of the situation, listed the Changning Imperial Army as an imaginary enemy, and ordered Lin Bochang and the others to step up their training...

Today's Shen Lei Army is no longer what it was when the Yan Army invaded a few months ago!

The military appearance, military appearance, military power, etc. have undergone earth-shaking changes.

They are no longer the same.

Regarding military training, although Zhu Xiuyuan did not interfere with Lin Bochang and the others, Zhu Xiuyuan had a "guiding idea" and must ask Lin Bochang and the others to implement it.

This guiding ideology can be roughly understood as: when you mount your horse, you become a cavalry, and when you dismount, you become an infantry. You can use new weapons and be proficient in using various cold weapons... In general, you can adapt to all terrains and all modes of combat!

Drill exactly in the way of "special forces".

It is required that all officers and soldiers of the Divine Thunder Army be almighty "Kings of Special Forces".

Of course, Zhu Xiuyuan was willing to throw in the equipment, food and salary, etc. The food and salary of the soldiers of the Shenlei Army, as well as various subsidies were so generous that the Chen State's armies were jealous to death.

It's no use being jealous.

Because Shen Leijun is Chen Huang's "real son".

Almost everything Zhu Xiuyuan asked for was approved by Emperor Chen. Anyway, the food, wages, equipment, etc. were all collected from Emperor Chen's inner treasury and did not need to go through the Ministry of Household Affairs at all.

These grains and wages from Emperor Chen's inner treasury were obtained from Zhu Xiuyuan's salt-refining strategy.

Emperor Chen specially opened the supply to the Divine Thunder Army...

By the way, the Changning Imperial Army also enjoys such privileges!

…

Zhu Xiuyuan returned to the city from the Shenlei Army camp every day, expecting that the five southeastern states would rebel as soon as possible.

His "Sword of the Divine Thunder Army" has been raised high and is about to fall.

He knew they wanted to rebel, but they still refused to do so, which made Zhu Xiuyuan very uncomfortable.

"Hey, these guys are not straightforward at all! They don't know how to rebel. Why don't you learn from the fourth prince of the Yan Kingdom? Look at how quickly they dispatched troops when they went south to invade the border!"

Zhu Xiuyuan shook his head from time to time and sighed...

After two days of this, there was no sign of rebellion, so Zhu Xiuyuan simply ignored the matter.

I only go to the Shen Lei Army camp once a day.

Most of the rest of his time was spent on preparations for the opening of Wuyi Plaza.

After several days of busy work, the final "equipment" of Wuyi Square has been transported from Shenleifang and installed one by one. At the same time, the atrium of the square will be decorated first, and a few shops will be opened symbolically.

As a demonstration move for the opening of the square in a few days...

Regarding the opening of Wuyi Plaza, Zhu Xiuyuan also secretly ordered people to spread the news everywhere in Beijing to build momentum first.

In fact, there is no need to create any publicity at all. All you need to do is say: "Wuyi Square is about to open." The whole capital will be excited.

Because Wuyi Square is three stories high and more than eighty feet long, it can be said to be the largest behemoth in the capital. Everyone in the capital knows about Wuyi Square.

In fact, outside the walls of Wuyi Square, countless people come to join in the fun and see the strange things every day.

They are just waiting for the day when the square opens!

Two more days passed like this.

The first batch of coarse salt from the State of Yan has arrived in Beijing. The fleet set off from Sizhou on the Henan Road of the State of Yan, crossed the Huaihe River, transferred to the Grand Canal and went down the river, then sailed from Yangzhou into the Yangtze River, and finally arrived in the capital.

.

Yes, Yan State finally agreed to Zhu Xiuyuan's method.

Since Yan State provided coarse salt, Chen State helped them process it into refined salt and took part of the refined salt as reward.

This incident also caused an uproar in Beijing.

The people were all discussing that the God of Thunder had once again made Chen Guo's face...

But soon, the heated discussion about this matter was dispersed by the news that "Wuyi Plaza is about to open."

Also on this day.

Imperial Palace, Qin'an Hall.

It was getting late, the sky was full of stars, and the night was as cold as water.
Chapter completed!
