The cow was a xenogeneic. Its body was as big as a small mountain, and its entire body was green. Its eyes were red, and its hooves were on fire. It walked in the air, dragging the ox cart as it sped across the plains.
However, this carriage looked very simple and crude compared to its owner.
However, when Mister Cheng and the old marshal saw the ox cart, they immediately bowed.
“Greetings, Your Majesty.”
The green bull, whose hooves were on fire, stopped.
The ox-cart was covered in a thin veil, and there were many figures inside, with a faint purple light.
A series of “kacha kacha” sounds came from the car.
It was as if someone was cracking something like pine nuts.
Accompanied by the cracking sounds, someone said, “No need for formalities.” “Thank you, Your Majesty.” Mr. Cheng and the old marshal said in unison.
The former moved his sore joints, while the latter took a step forward and bowed even more solemnly to the ox cart in front of him.”This old subject is guilty.”
There was a muffled sound in the carriage, as if someone was chewing something.
“There are merits and faults. If merits and faults do not offset each other, go back and receive your punishment.”
“Thank you, Lord, for your kindness,” the old marshal said respectfully.
Then, he stood up and watched as the ox-cart started moving again towards West Qin.
As for the old marshal, he did not return to the border to command the troops again. Instead, he obediently returned to the Eastern Zhou Imperial City.
Mr. Cheng held an oil-paper umbrella under his armpit and followed the ox cart. As he walked, he said, ‘”‘ He attacked Western Qin without asking for permission and became an enemy of the Heavenly River. Naturally, he should be punished. However, Marshal Hu is indeed a person who serves the public and has no selfish desires. He only wants to expand the territory of the Great Zhou. He doesn’t want to make things difficult for Your Majesty. He has long been prepared to take responsibility.
“There’s no need to rush to plead for him. I trust Old Hu’s character.” The ox cart made a cracking sound, as if a fruit shell had been cracked open.
Mister Cheng heaved a sigh of relief.
Of course, he couldn’t easily open the door to act first and report later.
The so-called “general outside the monarch’s orders” also depended on the specific situation.
Dong Zhou’s internal punishment of the old marshal was inevitable. It was just a reminder to the rest of the family.
However, the person in the ox cart obviously did not intend to pay attention to people outside the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.
The conflicts between the East Zhou Empire and the West Qin Empire had never been less, and the tension between them was no less than that between the Ancient Gods Clan and the South Chu Empire.
Now that a large area of Western Qin had been annexed by them, it was naturally a good opportunity for Eastern Zhou to expand their territory.
“Then I’ll go to the Western Expedition Army …” Mister Cheng asked.
The sound of “Ka Cha Ka Cha” could be heard in the ox cart. The people in the cart kept talking. “That’s enough for now.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.” Mr. Cheng understood.
He returned to the mountain range at the border of Zhou and Qin alone.
The generals of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty who were still quietly waiting heaved a sigh of relief when they heard the edict.
Everyone, including the old marshal himself, was mentally prepared for the outcome of that old marshal surnamed Hu.
The only suspense was how His Majesty would deal with the territory he had already occupied atter ne came out ot seclusion.
The inheritance of the Heavenly River lineage had been passed down. These days, there were often people running back and forth, trying to eliminate the smoke between Zhou and Qin.
Now that His Majesty had issued a decree, the attack on Western Qin would come to an end.
However, the territory that they had won with their own abilities was impossible to return.
Next was the stage of sorting out and digesting. For the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, this trip had already benefited them greatly.
After Mr. Cheng made all the necessary arrangements, he started to chase after the ox cart.
The ox-cart headed towards Zhengyang City.
The Eastern Zhou Empire had considered the results of the battle.
However, he had to help out in Zhengyang City and lend the old sword immortal a hand.
“Old Ying and the others should have already seen Old Yun, right?” After Mister Cheng caught up with the ox cart, he sat on the front shaft of the cart and acted as the driver.
On the way here, before they reached the Western Qin territory, the Heavenly River Elder had already heard the news and rushed over to see the Empress who had come out of seclusion. However, he was stopped by Mister Cheng.
The other party left helplessly. Presumably, he would explain the situation to the old sword immortal.
The person in the car nodded.
Mister Cheng was helpless. ” Your Majesty, although I also believe that Elder Yun is magnanimous and won’t be instigated by others, we still have to do some work to save face.
With a click, the person in the car threw an almond into his mouth.” Except for Elder Yun and a few others, the people of the Heavenly River are getting more and more talkative. I don’t want to listen to their nonsense. ‘
Mister Cheng smiled bitterly.
As long as they were humans, they might have their own thoughts.
On the whole, the people of the Heavenly River were mostly upright.
But he was also old-fashioned and stubborn.
For more than a hundred years, the Heavenly River lineage had protected the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.
The old sword immortal was only doing this out of concern for his old friend. The people in the Heavenly River did not consider themselves to be saviors.
However, some of the people in the Heavenly River had more or less formed a sense of supervision. They could not stand the actions of the East Zhou Empire and often had the intention to correct them.
” Your Majesty, although many of the suggestions of the people in the
Heavenly River are impractical, they are still considered as a different kind of voice. You will understand if you listen to them. ” Mister Cheng advised.
“I don’t want to.” The person in the car said without hesitation.
“Being a wise ruler is too tiring. Being a fatuous ruler is more suitable for me.”
Mr. Cheng almost had the urge to roll his eyes.”Your Majesty, you’re too modest. A fatuous ruler is still very far from you.
Of course, it would be even better if you could be more diligent.”
“Eating, drinking, and having fun are more suitable for me.” The Empress slowly cracked open a pine nut and savored the taste of the pine nut.
Mr. Cheng rolled his eyes.”Forgive me for being blunt, but Your Majesty, you moved the national treasury three times to fill the palace treasury just to eat and drink. If you really look at it from the standards of a fatuous ruler, you also have no ambition…”
Before he could finish, the back of his head was hit by a pine nut shell thrown out from the car.
Mr. Cheng sighed deeply.
“Your Majesty, you’re good at everything, but sometimes you’re too childish.”
The middle-aged coachman looked at the huge green bull in front of him with a depressed expression.
Because he hated the Green Bull Temple, he had given up the dragon carriage and rode an ox cart since he was young. He had changed from riding a dragon to riding an ox. Only His Majesty would do such a childish behavior.
Even after he ascended the throne and was on equal footing with the Abbey Dean of Green Bull Temple, this habit had never changed.
As a result, he could only drive the ox cart as her charioteer…
If there was any improvement, it would be that the green bull used to drive the carriage had been upgraded from an ordinary beast to a rare beast.
“It’s good to be a baby.” The people in the car started to crack the dried fruits again.
Mr. Cheng’s face was filled with helplessness again.
He was about to say something when he suddenly shut his mouth. His expression became calm and steady again as he turned his head to look into the distance.
“Your Majesty, they seem to be from the Green Bull Temple and South Chu.” Mr. Cheng said.
“It doesn’t look like it. It’s completely like it.” “Hurry up, we still have to go to Zhengyang City,” the person in the car said casually.
“Yes, Your Majesty.” Mr. Cheng held the oil-paper umbrella under his armpit, jumped off the ox cart, and drifted away in the wind and rain.
Up ahead, a huge battle was happening between the mountains and rivers of West Qin.
Purple qi filled half of the sky. The huge Taiji Diagram formed by the intersection of Yin and Yang fish seemed to replace the sun in the sky.
The other half of the sky was a blazing sea of golden flames. It was golden and boundless.
There was a golden dragon shadow rising and falling within it.
On the other side of the purple gas was an old Taoist priest.
In this battle of Western Qin, the Abbey Dean of the Green Bull Temple had never appeared. The Green Bull Temple was under the control of this Taoist elder.
On the other side of the sea of golden fire, there was an old man whose hair and beard seemed to have turned golden. He was dressed in luxurious royal clothes and had an extraordinary aura.
As someone who was two generations older than the current Emperor of Chu, Prince Yuyang was also one of the top experts in South Chu. He spent most of his time cultivating in seclusion. Only during a major war like this would he come out to fight for South Chu.
Both sides displayed their strengths in the Tai Qing Scripture and the Glorious Scores, fighting to the death in the Western Qin land, but all for the sake of occupying this territory.
No one dared to approach the battlefield where they were the center.
On the outskirts of the battlefield, there were more disciples of the Green Bull Temple and experts of the South Chu who were fighting.
However, from the center to the periphery, everyone suddenly slowed down.
While they were on guard against the enemy, everyone looked into the distance warily.
Dark clouds suddenly covered the sky and kept moving towards them.
As the dark clouds approached, a continuous drizzle fell, washing the world.
Golden light and raging flames, the fire was low.
The vast purple qi dissipated and retreated.
The world was completely covered by the rain.
A figure with an oil-paper umbrella under his armpit appeared between the old Taoist priest and Prince Yuyang of South Chu.
The pressure from the attacks from both sides fell on him alone, but it quickly dissipated.
Mr. Cheng bent down and massaged his sore joints.
“The two of you are old but strong. My rusty arms and legs really can’t take it.” The middle-aged man looked relaxed.
On the other hand, his two opponents had more solemn expressions than before.
“Master Yu, Uncle Cheng has arrived…” The two of them spoke in unison, their expressions even gloomier than the rain clouds in the sky.
Uncle Cheng smiled kindly. ” His Majesty has come out of seclusion to quell the war. Please leave. ‘
The old Taoist priest took a deep breath. I wonder if I can meet you?”
Uncle Cheng shook his head. ” Please forgive me. His Majesty doesn’t see any guests at the moment, so he asked me to see you two. Please leave Western Qin. “Then, will the Eastern Zhou Dynasty also give up the land of Western Qin that you have occupied?” The old Taoist priest looked at Uncle Cheng.
“You don’t have to worry about that, Daoist Priest.” Uncle Cheng said. “Your Eastern Zhou Dynasty is really thick-skinned.” Prince Yuyang of the Southern Chu sneered.
Uncle Cheng stretched his sore neck.”l dare not. However, if the two of you still do not retreat, it will be better if your skin is thick enough.’
As they spoke, all the warriors of the South Chu and the Green Bull Temple felt that the rain that fell from the sky had suddenly changed.
Every drop of rain seemed to have become a sharp blade that pierced through the world!
A single drop of rain directly pierced through their protective qi.
The rain did not get heavier.
However, the drizzle continued, and the entire world seemed to have been turned into a sieve. It was not enough to describe the desolation.
Most of the people present instantly fell down like seedlings blown by a storm..
