In short, for Zhang Cheng, he has passed this level for the time being.

It is actually illegal for Xu Nan to enthrone the "Border Town Doctor" because the border town itself is not his legal territory, and you cannot use the territory that does not belong to you to divide the vassals. But since the Zhou emperor admitted it later, the legality issue will be solved.

Emperor Zhou did not deny the legitimacy of Zhang Cheng's "Border Town Doctor" at the first time, so it would be difficult to use this excuse to deny Zhang Cheng's identity in the future. In other words, from this moment on, it was basically decided that the identity of Zhang Cheng's land emperor would be fine.

"Is there anything else?" Zhang Cheng asked.

"The emperor knew that the border town was attacked by Quanrong," said Gonghui. "So he exempted the tribute this year."

True. One of the obligations of feudal lords is to provide tribute. In other words, whether it is a prince or a vassal, as long as it is a lord who is "split the soil and is sealed", he must pay tribute and money to the lord. The tribute is mainly the specialty of the territory. For example, the tribute from the Chu State is the white thirst used for filtering wine. For example, the tribute from the border doctor is the horse. However, the tribute is actually secondary, and the main thing is the money.

Of course, the commodity economy in this world is not as developed as the earth, but the situation of "the army has no wealth and the soldiers cannot come" has long existed. At least now, the ceremony of ascension to the throne and sacrifice to heaven has just been held, and the poor and jingling Zhou emperor must need money.

Whether it is for the style of the emperor in front of you, to reward your loyal subordinates, to future wars, or to compete with King Xie of Zhou in the future, money is an important resource.

So this is also a political signal sent by the Zhou emperor. After half a year this year, it’s okay. But the past tribute will be restored starting next year.

So the border city doctor has to face a new question: is he a border city doctor Xu Nan's vassal? Or a Zhou emperor's vassal? Maybe both are, maybe neither are both. But it is very likely that he will have to pay two tributes in the future.

And we also need to consider more troublesome things: for example, the Zhou emperor is short of money now. Paying more tributes may lead to some additional benefits. For example, if you get the "axe" and you have independent rights to start a war, you can try to expand your territory. Or, just like the Qin State in the future, you will be crowned as a prince or something. But if you give too much, it may arouse the greed of the Zhou emperor. After all, the emperor is short of money. Will the Zhou emperor look at his Border Town doctor who has a lot of money, and will he have the idea of ​​"not slapping more than he can be sorry for himself."

In addition, there are diplomatic issues. To be honest, Zhang Cheng doesn't know if there is this "Kunwu City" in the history of the earth, but if so, then the final consequence of the small territory of Kunwu City and border town is likely to be annexed by the Chu State.

Although Kunwu clan said that he had the same surname as the Chu royal family, both of them were after Zhurong, and they were considered relatives. But who was the Chu? He was a shameless person who publicly claimed that "I am a barbarian", and only sought real profit but not false reputation. If Chu ended the war against the barbarians, he turned around and attacked Kunwu City and the border city... Well, Zhang Cheng felt it would be difficult to survive on himself.

In short, the lord Zhang Cheng may not be in great danger at the moment, but there are definitely many troublesome things.

"I understand, you can retreat first." Zhang Cheng said. "I'm tired from a long distance, go and take a few days off."

Gonghui bowed and left. Zhang Chengping stepped back, standing in the empty hall. If it were someone else, it would be considered a winner in this world, right? But now things are different. He is now standing at a higher position, or thinking he is standing at a higher position.

Because as a chess player, he is at least half a chess player, and he is in this plane war beyond the world and even above the gods.

From this perspective, although the Border Town Doctor's position is quite good, it is not a pity even if it is lost.

Zhang Cheng slowly pulled out a card from his arms "Young Bai Ze".

"The young Bai Ze: Although it seems weak and harmless, it is definitely one of the most powerful beings in all realms. In a special way, Bai Ze can understand all the information of a world, and it is almost omniscient. As long as you want, it can know anything. This is actually stealing the authority of the gods above the gods. In fact, the existence of this creature itself is a blasphemy against the Lord of the Plane. It is hard to imagine that the Lord of the Plane would allow it to appear. This creature is so rare that its birth is almost miraculous. This Bai Ze is just a juvenile body, but its power is not essentially different from that of the adult body. Expenses: 1 arbitrary, attack 0 (bite), life 1 (normal), characteristics; legendary creature (?), medium intelligence, son of blasphemy"

And below these words, there is a line of small characters. "The wizard must use its power carefully. Bai Ze's existence itself is a provocation to the Lord of the Plane. Its appearance will greatly increase the wizard's hostility to the wizard."

Among all the cards, this is the only creature card with such a high rating. It is probably the only "Blood Curse" that rivals Bai Ze. This is the only two cards that can affect the Lord of the Plane.

It is precisely because of the explanation of this card that Zhang Chengcai did not dare to summon Bai Ze on the earth casually - who can clearly explain what will happen after summoning Bai Ze? Will Gaia not have a thunder slashed the wizard?

The Nuan Yangyang appeared in front of Zhang Cheng. It raised its head and shook its head at Zhang Cheng. "Master Lu, what are you looking for me?"

Nuan Yangyang's voice has always been very rude and full of provocation. However, Zhang Cheng still picked it up.

"According to the rules, you can ask three questions today."

"I have no questions now," said Zhang Cheng. "But I have some grapes here, do you want to eat them? They are very sweet. This is a variety that is not available in this world."

He casually signaled the sunshine rose in his hand. This thing was once among the "luxury fruits". Although the price has dropped sharply and is everywhere, it is indeed a very sweet grape.

Zhang Cheng now clearly felt that Nuan Yangyang was like a child and had to follow it. Unfortunately, this guy was still very good at reading his heart, so he was too easy to see through. In the end, Zhang Cheng decided to treat it sincerely in exchange for its service.

"I know you want to please me, but I tell you that this is useless." Nuan Yangyang raised his nose proudly and looked down on it.

"It's really sweet and delicious, I guess you'll like it. And it's free-I don't really want it?"

"Okay..." Bai Ze hesitated for a moment. It clearly read Zhang Cheng's heart, so he knew that this kind of grape was really sweet. It opened its mouth and took the grapes from Zhang Cheng's hand and started to eat them.

A bunch of grapes quickly fell to her stomach, and Bai Ze began to lie there, closing his eyes, chewing slowly and eating the second bunch of grapes.

"Master Lu, what do you want to do now?" Nuan Yangyang asked casually.

"No, I didn't think about anything." Zhang Cheng replied. He really didn't think about anything, it was very Buddhist. Since the last time he had a face-to-face communication with Haotian to distort the clan, Zhang Cheng completely understood. Madan, it turned out that his every move here was in Haotian's sight. Since that's the case, he felt that he would, well, wait for the time being, and think more about it, instead of blindly moving as before.

If you are making cards, you will do it when he makes up his mind to go away forever. Otherwise, it would be a good thing to anger Haotian.

For the time being, Zhang Cheng doesn't want to leave the earth and this world. There are many cards in this world, and the earth is his hometown after all.

"Don't you want to get more cards?" Bai Ze asked. "A stronger card."

"Where can I get it?" Zhang Cheng was still a little interested in this question.

"The easiest thing is, well, Yinxu." Nuan Yangyang said. "There is an imperial spirit there."

"Didn't it mean that the Emperor's Spirit has been killed by King Wu of Zhou?" Zhang Cheng asked curiously. In this matter, Huang Xiong was once a melon-eating crowd. So he clearly saw the entire battle process. There was a magical version of the Battle of Muye in this world. In this battle, with the deliberate help of the gods (according to Xiao Xiong, this is no different from the gods who came to participate in the battle in person), more than ten imperial spirits who protected the Shang Dynasty were killed by King Wu. After this battle beyond humans ended, there was no suspense in the battle in the material world, the so-called "strike against the Great Shang Dynasty".

Regardless of whether Xiaoxiong's statement was exaggerated, many emperor spirits that bless the Shang Dynasty would definitely be destroyed. Because later, the remaining forces of the Shang Dynasty could never make any splashes. Even after instigating the "Three Supervisors", they were still defeated by the Zhou Dynasty in one fell swoop.

"Of course, all those who went to the battlefield were killed, but those who didn't go to the battlefield were different. There was also a semi-finished product left behind. In fact, King Wu had no selfishness, but his subordinates were very envious of the imperial spirits who protected the dynasty. So he concealed this semi-finished emperor spirit and successfully avoided the sight of the gods. It was okay that this semi-finished product would be half-finished. Anyway, the Shang Dynasty had completely perished, and there would be no new imperial spirits. Just stay in the corner and get moldy on its own." Nuan Yangyang chewed the grapes,

He said, "But later, King Xuan of Zhou... You know, it was King You of Zhou's father. He was so confused that he would use the power of the Emperor Spirit to maintain the long-term stability of the dynasty. He didn't think about why the Zhou Shi seized the position of the emperor? This was a betrayal of the gods. You will understand the next thing. Now, it was the one that King Xuan of Zhou was found by himself. When Prince Wu attacked the Zhou Shi, he received the unanimous acquiescence from almost all the gods."

"In other words... this Emperor Spirit is still there?"

"Well, it should be said that this emperor spirit is Du Bo. Du Bo was sent to Yinxu to study the emperor spirit. He developed a spell to replace the semi-finished emperor spirit with his will. The original purpose was to allow King Xuan of Zhou to seize the imperial spirit without knowing it. Unfortunately, the gods were punished. The gods were asked for guilt, especially after the great defeat of the Thousand Acres of War, King Xuan of Zhou had to execute Du Bo as a scapegoat. How was that simple? The ambition of the Zhou Dynasty had already angered the gods. The gods in turn happened to use Du Bo who died unjustly. Du Bo was executed to seize the imperial spirit and used the power of the emperor spirit to retaliate against King Xuan of Zhou.

But in this way, he also exhausted his last power and had to fall into a deep sleep. That is to say, "Bai Ze said. "If you see that if you go there, the remaining defensive power over there can't stop you at all. If you are careful, there will be no danger. Not to mention that you have the help of the God of Twisted, so even if the Gods intervene, they can't stop you. Of course, if the Gods know this, they will probably be happy to give you a pass so that you can take away the Emperor Spirit, because they also dislike the Emperor Spirit. There shouldn't be any Emperor Spirit in this world. Similarly, the Emperor Spirit himself is willing to go with you. Because this world can't tolerate it."

This is really good news... Zhang Cheng was thinking in his mind. The capital is small and the profit is big, but the question is... Does Haotian allow it?

"There are other things besides that." Bai Ze said again. "For example, the yellow bear can split another incarnation. As long as you pay enough, you can trade with the yellow bear. This is a bargaining issue. And the advantage is that it does not require you to pay anything."

"Uh? I don't understand what this means."

"Then I will explain to you why Ao Guang is a god." Bai Ze seemed to be sneering, of course, his sneer did not affect its continued eating grapes. "The priesthood that Ao Guang longed for was not within the normal allowable range. Haotian would not give this priesthood to anyone. In other words, if he relied on himself to create it normally, it would always be a semi-priesthood... just like the priesthood that the yellow bear longed for."

"But," Bai Ze said. "Ao Guang brought information from another world to Haotian. In exchange for Haotian's permission, he could complete the priesthood so easily."

Zhang Chuanglai had many speculations, but now Nuan Yangyang has made it clear at this moment. So that's it.

Ao Guang had been running around and reached several agreements with Zhang Cheng. Whether it was taking the initiative to join the God War (in exchange for the cooperation of the Taiyin Star Lord in the God War), or crowdfunding the priesthood of "Gingeria lucidum" for Zhang Cheng, or even finally going to fight naked, he was actually very hard and paid a lot. However, the price Ao Guang asked Zhang Cheng for insignificant - he just wanted to go to another world to see the sightseeing point. The last time he was plotted by the gods in another world, he almost couldn't come back.

"So that's how it is..." Zhang Cheng's heart moved, and he began to understand a little why Haotian allowed his existence.

In fact, the principle of this matter is the same as Ao Guang said. Under normal circumstances, the gods will feel unhappy when they look at the Master of the Wizard (this should be some hidden rule by the Lord of the Plane), and they will take the initiative to attack the Wizard even if there is no conflict or hatred. But it is different for Ao Guang - Ao Guang can happily cooperate with Zhang Cheng, because reason can overcome instinctive dislike.

Haotian also realized the value of Master Lu... so he tolerated Master Lu's existence.

Or... Could it be...Is it? Zhang Cheng thought of a thought in his mind.

This idea actually came up a long time ago, but now it has become very strong.

"My answer is, I don't know." Nuan Yangyang read Zhang Cheng's thoughts. "Or there is insufficient information unless I go to the earth."

It lay there and closed its eyes and continued to chew grapes. Zhang Cheng summoned Xiao Huihui out. Xiao Huihui looked no hostility towards Nuanyangyang. In fact, it had been proposing to arch towards the other party's body, but was kicked away by Nuanyangyangyang in disgust.

Although Xiao Huihui is definitely better at fighting in terms of combat power, it seems... wisdom is the most important factor.

Zhang Cheng moved to the window, and the autumn sun shone over, making people nap. It was okay anyway, so it was good to take a nap for a while. He slowly closed his eyes. In the hazy state, he found that the surrounding environment suddenly changed.
