"I destroyed his cultivation and kicked him out of the position of prince. Now that he has ended up like this, he holds a grudge against me. I know it in my heart. As the saying goes, cut off the roots to avoid future troubles. I am afraid that I will go on an expedition soon.

, leaving such a disaster behind, I feel uneasy after all."

Liu Xia said softly.

"I understand, Your Highness, please rest assured. In the struggle in this palace, there can be no mercy, so just leave everything to me."

Chen Mo said softly.

"I have a husband."

Liu Xia cupped his fists and said.

"rest assured."

After saying that, Chen Mo asked someone to carry him back to rest.

Liu Xia was waiting outside the main hall. Within a quarter of an hour, Liu Xia was led into the royal study by Xiao Huangmen.[

At this moment, the emperor was immersed in the series of memorials, and Liu Xia could only stand to one side, not daring to speak.

"Give me a seat."

After a while, the emperor said calmly.

Immediately, two young eunuchs brought up a chair and placed it behind Liu Xia.

After sitting down, the emperor smiled and said: "You are newly married. If you are not staying with your beloved wife in the palace, what are you doing here?"

"My father saw this and came to the palace to say hello to the Queen Mother. I also stopped by to see my father."

Liu Xia smiled.

"Okay, I just have something I want to explain to you."

The emperor slowly stood up and walked out from behind the Long Bookcase.

On the side of the Imperial Study Room, there is a map of the Tianji Dynasty, which is drawn in great detail.

The emperor stopped at one side of the map and said: "Haoxuan, you have a heavy burden on this expedition. Not to mention the pirates on the southeast coast, even the Nangong family is a tough guy. In the past few days, the Nangong family has been

They showed their kindness to me once, hoping that I would give them another chance. But I refused. The art of war has it that it is the best strategy to subjugate the enemy without fighting. But I chose to go to war. Do you know why?

?”

"Your Majesty wants to take this opportunity to eradicate the Nangong family. Without a huge family, our Tianji Dynasty will be more stable."

Liu Xia replied hurriedly.

"Yes, I do mean this. Only powerful families exist, and to a certain extent, they have indeed hindered the development of our Tianji Dynasty. With one more family, the people will have an extra burden. Over the years, I have been weakening the family's influence on the court.

influence. Just

, accumulated over thousands of years, the existence of the family is also deeply rooted, and it cannot be completely disintegrated overnight. However, this time the Nangong family gave me an opportunity, I can't let it go so easily. But you, went to Southern Xinjiang,

Just be careful with yourself."

The emperor reminded.[

"I understand. The Nangong family and several major families in the south are closely related to each other. I know in my heart that they may not really go all out to annihilate the Nangong family."

Liu Xia replied.

"It's good that you understand this. Although my system has been implemented slowly and has achieved some results over the years, it is not enough. When you go south this time, if other families dare to join the Nangong family, you will definitely

Don't give them a chance."

The emperor said firmly.

Liu Xia was stunned. The emperor's appetite was too big this time.

Not only did he want to destroy the Nangong family, he even wanted to eradicate the three major families in the south.

Therefore, the emperor only sent 200,000 troops this time. If these noble families dare to make any small moves, the emperor is afraid that he will use the entire country's military force to deal with them.

Those border garrison troops still in the hands of the emperor were the bargaining chips in the hands of the emperor.

To frighten other clans.

If other aristocratic families dare to have any ideas when eradicating the Nangong family, I am afraid that the emperor will strike hard with the power of thunder.

"Father, I understand, but if it really kills all living beings, it will still be the people of the world who will suffer."

Liu Xia hesitated and said.

"You child, you are still too kind-hearted. The world's noble families should have perished long ago. Emperors of all generations have treated them with trepidation. I don't want to rule for the sake of it. Someone has to open this head. If they are willing to see the formality,

I naturally welcome them, and if they dare to offend, I will not be lenient."

The emperor smiled.

When Liu Xia heard this, he clasped his fists and said, "I understand everything."

"Well, that's good. You go back and make preparations. In three days, go south and take office."

said the emperor.

"yes."

Liu Xia immediately clasped his fists and said.

After coming out of the emperor's house, Liu Xia was silent all the way.

The Nangong family is one of the top ten families in the Tianji Dynasty, ranking only after the Huangpu family and the Zhang family.

Needless to say, its strength is strong.

This time the Nangong family directly participated in the demon tribe's rebellion against Longdu, so they were also afraid.

If the emperor really dared to start a war with the Nangong family, the entire southern Xinjiang would probably be beaten to a bloody pulp.

However, the Nangong family still underestimated the emperor's determination to eradicate them.

It seems that the emperor made the final decision on this southern expedition after careful consideration.

Thinking of this, Liu Xia let out a long sigh. He didn't know what kind of tragic end would happen to Southern Xinjiang once he and the Nangong family started a war.

As soon as I returned to the palace, I saw the Bai family's carriage parked outside the gate.

After Liu Xia got off the car, he hurriedly walked towards the gate.

"Junior brother, Bai Rongxuan is here."

"I know."

After saying that, Liu Xia went straight to the living room.

Seeing Bai Rongxuan, Liu Xia smiled happily and said, "Brother Bai, long time no see. How are you recovering?"

Bai Rongxuan hurriedly smiled and said: "Your Highness calls me brother, I don't dare to take it seriously."

"What's the point? There are no outsiders here, so there's no need to be so formal. I'm negotiating with Tuoba Lingyun about your matter. What's wrong? He relented?"

Liu Xia asked.

"Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. Last night our family received an amnesty order from the Ministry of Criminal Justice. It was said that the Metropolitan Procuratorate had withdrawn the case, and Tuoba Lingyun went to explain it in person. So I dared to come out. During this period, I have been here every day.

The house is almost stuffy to death."

Bai Rongxuan laughed and said.

"As long as you're fine, I will find a way to compensate for the losses this incident has caused to your Bai family."

"What did your Highness say? Although my Bai family is not the richest trading company in Dragon Soul Continent, this little money is really nothing. Forget about the money, if Your Highness has any instructions, I, Bai Rongxuan, will still be willing to do your best for you."

.”

Bai Rongxuan replied with a smile.

Bai Rongxuan's incident all happened because of him. Although Lao Bai said it happily, the losses to the Bai family during this period were really astronomical.

"Brother Bai said this, which really makes me feel unbearable. After I go south, if I have any good errands, I will remember you and your Bai family."

Liu Xia smiled lightly.

When Bai Rongxuan heard this, he hurriedly knelt on the ground and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness. Our Bai family will do our best."

"Brother Bai, get up. I feel very ashamed when I talk about it. I have wanted to negotiate with Tuoba Lingyun several times about your matter, but I have been delayed by other things. Sit down quickly. The family will prepare a family dinner later. Let's have a good time.

Have a drink."

Liu Xia smiled lightly.

"Then I'd rather obey your orders than I am respectful. I heard about your wedding before, but I didn't dare to come out. This time I specially put on a small gift as a token of my gratitude. Please accept it, Your Highness."

After saying that, Lao Bai's servant brought up a long box one meter square.

After opening the box, there was a simple white jade long sword lying inside, which was very cold and had the color of wind and snow.

At first glance, this is a good thing at the level of an immortal weapon.

"Take it."

Immediately, Liu Xia handed it over to Taoist Master Yixin.
