Hua Fengde smiled bitterly and said, "Hua Shikui is indeed a strong general, but after all, he is not familiar with Xifeng City, and has never played against the Feitian** team. His experience is far inferior to Long De. What's more, we If Hua Shikui is placed in Xifeng City, what will happen to the Jinxia Kingdom? Dad, we have too few good generals at our disposal!"
"Even if I am asked to guard Xifeng City, I must get rid of Long De!" Hua Jiyuan was extremely determined and refused to leave any room for change.
"Dad, this..."
Before Hua Fengde could finish his words, Hua Jiyuan waved his hand and interrupted him, saying, "I have made up my mind on this matter. There is no need to say more. I came to you today for another matter." [
Hua Fengde sighed softly, and finally suppressed the uneasy desire rising in his heart, and asked displeasedly, "What's the matter?"
"Dragon Breath!"
"Dragon Breath?" Hua Fengde's expression was startled.
Hua Jiyuan smiled and said, "Don't you think it's time for us to take back control of Dragon Breath?"
Hua Jiyuan's words made Hua Fengde very nervous, "Dad, please don't come! Qin Shaoxia made it clear at the beginning that Longxi is independent of the regime of Longyuan Kingdom and is not controlled by our Hua family. Although at critical moments, They have the obligation to assist us in maintaining the stability and independence of Longyuan Kingdom, but at the same time they also have the power to supervise us. Qin Shaoxia will not let us control Dragon Breath under any circumstances."
Hua Jiyuan laughed loudly, "Silly boy, why are you so stubborn? Isn't Qin Dong missing now?"
"But...but what if Qin Shaoxia only leaves temporarily?"
"Then we are not afraid! As long as we act quickly and powerfully and win people's hearts at the same time, when Qin Dong comes back, the raw rice has been cooked, and even if he is dissatisfied, there is nothing we can do!"
"No! I absolutely disagree with this!" Hua Fengde said loudly and resolutely.
"Fengde! Why are you so stubborn? If we don't control the dragon's breath in our own hands, we won't be able to truly secure our country! You, the emperor, won't be able to be practical!"
"Dad, I..." Hua Fengde was about to continue persuading Hua Jiyuan. In a blink of an eye, he saw Situ Mutong walking in quickly and had to pause temporarily.
"Master Situ, you..." Situ Mutong entered the door, and Hua Fengde saw that his face was very solemn.
Situ Mutong saluted Hua Fengde, then turned his gaze to Hua Jiyuan, and asked in a deep voice, "Mr. Hua, I just got the news that you mobilized a million troops to surround Xifeng City?"
Although Hua Jiyuan was Hua Fengde's father and his status was equal to that of the Supreme Emperor, Situ Mutong did not show much respect for him, and at this time he was even more accusatory.
Hua Jiyuan, like Hua Fengde, also valued Situ Mutong's ability and his influence in Longyuan Kingdom. Although Situ Mutong's attitude at this time made him somewhat dissatisfied, he still had a smile on his face. He nodded, "Yes, that's what I meant."
Seeing Hua Jiyuan's admission, Situ Mutong became even more rude and said in a solemn voice, "I would like to ask, Mr. Hua, in what capacity do you mobilize this million-strong army? Or to put it more directly, what power do you have?" this way?"
Situ Mutong's accusation made Hua Jiyuan frown and said, "Master Situ, what do you mean? As Fengde's father, don't I even have this power?"
Without thinking, Situ Mutong replied loudly, "Of course not! Although you are the father of the current Emperor of Longyuan Kingdom, you have no official position and certainly do not have the power to mobilize the army!"
Hua Jiyuan gave a bitter smile and said, "It seems that in Master Situ's eyes, I am just a bad old man. Haha..." [
Situ Mutong shook his head and said solemnly, "That's not true! If His Majesty the Emperor has authorized you to do this, then you can naturally mobilize the army at will. Otherwise, you are relying on your old age to act on your own and arrogating without authorization. If you tell me, I will fear the world." People are dissatisfied.”
"Master Situ, you must be serious!" Hua Jiyuan lost face as Situ Mutong's words became more and more sharp.
Situ Mutong said calmly, "I am just fulfilling the duties of a minister. Also, I don't understand what heinous crime Long De has committed. You actually want to use a million troops to besiege Xifeng City?"
Hua Jiyuan snorted and said, "Of course I have my reasons for doing this!"
Seeing that Hua Jiyuan only said this and said no more, Situ Mutong turned to look at Hua Fengde.
Before he could ask, Hua Fengde hurriedly shook his head and said, "Master Situ, I only found out about this not long ago."
This was what Situ Mutong had expected before. He nodded and asked Hua Jiyuan, "I heard that you also forcibly brought Long De from Xifeng City back to Jingbei City?"
Hua Jiyuan curled his lips and said, "There are also Qin Zongheng and Gu Tianba who went to Xifeng City with me. You can ask them."
Seeing Hua Jiyuan's tough attitude, Situ Mutong had nothing to do with him, and said in a deep voice, "I will ask. However, I hope you will take my words to heart! Whether a country can prosper depends on the country. The law and order. No matter who you are, don’t think of overriding the law and order!”
"Master Situ, you..." Hua Jiyuan became a little angry.
Situ Mutong didn't wait for him to finish speaking, and said to Hua Fengde, "Your Majesty, although you have not officially ascended the throne yet, you are actually the emperor of Longyuan Kingdom. I hope that you will put national affairs first in everything in the future and give up everything." Xiaojia, take care of everyone!”
Hua Jiyuan got angry and said angrily, "Situ Mutong, what do you mean? Does Fengde have to disown all his relatives when he becomes the king of a country?"
Situ Mutong said bluntly, "At critical moments, when it comes to right and wrong, this is how it has to be!"
"you!… "
Without giving Hua Jiyuan a chance to get angry, Situ Mutong bowed to Hua Fengde and turned to leave.
"This Situ Mutong simply doesn't take me seriously!" Hua Jiyuan said angrily towards Situ Mutong's back.
Hua Fengde shook his head and said in a serious voice, "Dad, I think Master Situ is right! If you still want me to be the emperor, then please don't interfere in political affairs at will in the future. Even if you have any ideas, , you must also discuss it with me in advance. It must not happen again like this time, where millions of troops were mobilized at once, but I, the emperor, didn't know anything about it."
"You...you blame me too?" Hua Jiyuan thought wholeheartedly about Hua Fengde's throne, but he didn't expect that in the end he would be complained by Hua Fengde so much. He felt annoyed and aggrieved at the same time.
Hua Fengde said, "I'm not blaming you, but advising you. This is also for your own good, lest you insist on going your own way and cause trouble!"
"Okay, okay! Your wings have grown hard, so you don't need to take care of me anymore. Okay! You are the king of a country. If anything happens in the future, you can just handle it yourself. You don't have to come to me to find this troublesome old man!" "Hua Jiyuan held back his breath and turned to leave.
"By the way, dad, that's it for now, so don't worry about it!" Hua Fengde added before Hua Jiyuan could walk out. In Hua Jiyuan's heart, another fire was added.
"Hmph!" Hua Jiyuan didn't want to say anything, he snorted heavily and strode out. [
He was angry, but could he really let it go? The answer is definitely no. The Hua family finally managed to achieve such a glorious situation in his hands. He would rather give up this old bone than keep it.
After thinking about it, Hua Jiyuan came to Longxi's headquarters.
The current top officer of Longxi is Guan Peng. Even Mu Jian, the chief elder of Dragon Breath, and Long Yi, the leader of the dragon group, have to obey his orders. For Guan Peng, this is like reaching the sky in one step.
To say that everyone in Longxi is convinced by Guan Peng is simply nonsense. The chief elder Mu Jian, as well as the three secondary elders who were lucky enough to survive the last war, and the leader of the third group of Shadow Evil all looked down upon Guan Peng. As for the leader of the dragon group, Long Yi, that was not to mention. Every time I see Guan Peng, I just deal with him on the surface, but I don't take him seriously at all.
But no matter how dissatisfied they were with Guan Peng in their hearts, they would never dare to show it. There was nothing they could do. Behind Guan Peng stood Qin Dong, a figure who made them both respected and feared, and could be described as frightened.
Guan Peng is not a fool, he knows all this well. He also knew that his cultivation was not qualified to serve as the highest officer of Dragon Breath. Therefore, during this period of time, I have been practicing hard and unwilling to waste even a second. In addition, Qin Dong took special care of him, including Tianyuan Dan, fairy grass and spiritual medicine, as well as mental training methods. It can be said that he did not hesitate. In these short days, Guan Peng had raised his cultivation level to the acquired peak, and was only one step away from the innate realm.
Guan Peng was surprised by Hua Jiyuan's arrival, and at the same time he felt a little uneasy. However, Hua Jiyuan was the Supreme Emperor after all, so Guan Peng did not dare to neglect him and entertained him with great enthusiasm.
Hua Jiyuan lowered his head and took a sip of tea, put the cup on the table, and said, "Guan Peng, you are very proud of yourself now, and you are considered a very popular figure in Longyuan Kingdom. Haha..."
Guan Peng hurriedly said humbly, "Mr. Hua, thank you for your praise. It's all because Qin Daxia looks down on me."
Hua Jiyuan nodded and asked suddenly, "Do you know that Qin Dong is missing now?"
Guan Peng's heart sank immediately. How could he not know this news? In the past few days, in addition to sending people around to search for Qin Dong's whereabouts, his heart was tightening every day. He knew very well that if Qin Dong really disappeared, then he would no longer have a backer, and his current position would become precarious.
"I know." Guan Peng nodded, suppressing the uneasiness in his heart. He lowered his head and waited for Hua Jiyuan's next words.
