Chapter 221: Only a few dollars a month, why work so hard

Kyoto, Imperial Palace of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

It was also when Xiao Jiyun took the throne that Tiandao in the world of Qiyun Dynasty opened his eyes.

Seeing Xiao Jiyun ascending the throne, Tiandao nodded with satisfaction.

That's right, that's how history was originally.

It seems that no matter what opportunities Xiao Tingxuan gets, under the correction of major historical events, things will eventually return to their original trajectory.

It was because he had thought too much before, and he didn't need to think about it that much at all.

Then, he withdrew his gaze and continued to understand the laws of his great avenue, hoping to be promoted to the Middle Thousand Worlds one day.

…

In the next few days, Xiao Tingxuan no longer sent people to investigate. Two messages calling for thieves came from the north and the south of the Yangtze River.

The contents of the two thief-defeating articles are very similar, and they both target Xiao Jiyun. The content is roughly the same.

Xiao Jiyun was treasonous, killed the king and usurped the throne. He asked all the kings in the world to fight against this thief.

The ones who issued these two messages against thieves were the crown prince and the fifth prince.

They formed teams in the north and south of the Yangtze River respectively, preparing to march into Kyoto and pull Xiao Jiyun from the throne.

Many of them have joined their camp and are preparing to perform the Conglong Gong.

"What's the situation outside?"

Xiao Tingxuan asked the man in black robe in front of him.

"Back to Your Highness, the Crown Prince and the Fifth Prince have each pulled up an army of three million people and are marching towards Kyoto. Most of the cities along the way surrendered without a fight and took refuge under their command."

The man in black robe told Xiao Tingxuan the information they had obtained.

An army of three million people?

When he heard this number, Xiao Tingxuan wanted to laugh.

If his 300,000-strong army wants to fight normally, it needs at least 500,000 civilian troops to maintain it.

As for their army of three million people, not to mention more, five million civilians will have to take it.

So that adds up to eight million people.

Without considering other factors, Xiao Tingxuan just said that the food and clothing expenses for these eight million people, how would the prince and Xiao Tianyu solve it, would it all depend on the financial support of the aristocratic family?

Stop being ridiculous, the family itself is a vampire.

He can help you, but ask him to do his best to help you and stop dreaming.

Xiao Tingxuan asked: "How many people are there specifically?"

"It is estimated to be around half a million people." The man in black robe said, this is the number estimated by their Black Ice Platform.

"Ha~"

Xiao Tingxuan immediately smiled again. He believed in this number of around half a million people, and he also believed that the aristocratic families could mobilize so many people.

As for the three million, just take it for granted, really treat everyone as a fool and let them fool you.

"How many people are capable of fighting?" Xiao Tingxuan asked again.

To be able to raise an army of 500,000 people in such a short period of time, there must be many people who are just trying to make up the numbers. There is no doubt about this.

This group of people can be said to be cannon fodder, but what they really rely on is a group of teams with fighting capabilities.

If we only look at the number of people and combat effectiveness, Xiao Tingxuan can immediately raise an army of one million people in Sanhe, but that is meaningless and will only increase the burden.

"About 70,000 to 80,000 people are capable of combat."

Xiao Tingxuan nodded when he heard this. Out of the army of 500,000 people, 70,000 to 80,000 are capable of fighting. This ratio is quite impressive. It seems that the aristocratic families still have a few tricks up their sleeves.

"What's the reaction in Kyoto?" Xiao Tingxuan asked again.

"The Kyoto side has not responded for the time being and has been allowing the Crown Prince and the Fifth Prince's troops to advance."

"Um?"

When he heard that Xiao Jiyun was facing the Crown Prince and the Fifth Prince's crusade, but Xiao Jiyun didn't even move at all, Xiao Tingxuan frowned and couldn't figure out what Xiao Jiyun was doing.

Have you given up your resistance?

No, absolutely not.

Xiao Jiyun wanted to sit in that position regardless of being accused of regicide in order to seek the throne.

From this alone, we know that Xiao Jiyun is definitely not a person who gives up easily. He must be waiting for something.

"Keep exploring."

"I obey my orders!"

…

Just as the army of the crown prince and the fifth prince approached the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Mu Fei also came to the palace.

Mu Fei released his consciousness and checked. Soon, Mu Fei found the place where Li Xuejing was being held.

Xiao Jiyun did not go too far. Regarding the emperor's former concubines, he did not deliberately torture or humiliate them, but locked them all together and sent people to guard them.

The same goes for the Queen and Xiao Tianyu's biological mother.

You said that both the prince and Xiao Tianyu rebelled against him, but Xiao Jiyun still left their families alone for the time being.

It can be seen that Xiao Jiyun still has principles.

Of course, it is not ruled out that someone in the palace is restricting Xiao Jiyun and not letting Xiao Jiyun touch them for the time being.

Fortunately, they are all here, which makes it easier for Mu Fei to not have to look for them one by one.

"who?"

The moment Mu Fei appeared, the guards guarding here saw him and immediately became alert.

It's impossible not to be alert. Judging from Mu Fei's attire, he doesn't belong to the palace at all.

An outsider appeared in the palace like this. With a little thinking, he knew that this person was definitely of extraordinary origin, at least he was a master.

Mu Fei ignored the guards and walked straight away.

"The palace is a very important place, no one can break into it."

Seeing that Mu Fei ignored them and walked straight towards them, although the guard looked a little scared, he still raised his spear and pointed it at Mu Fei, warning Mu Fei not to act recklessly.

Seeing the guard pointing his gun at him, Mu Fei admired his courage.

Even though he knew he was outmatched and was scared in his heart, he still chose to fight him desperately.

In response to this, Mu Fei only wanted to say that you only make a few bucks a month, so you don't have to work so hard.

The person you are loyal to now has not officially ascended the throne, and is still a pseudo-emperor. There is no need at all. Whether Xiao Jiyun can hold this position is another matter.

Fortunately, Mu Fei is in a good mood recently and doesn't want to kill anyone, so just let him go.

Mu Fei glanced at him and then walked away.

"Emperor..."

The guard wanted to warn Mu Fei, but the next second, he couldn't speak, as if something was stuck in his throat.

His body couldn't move, and he stood there in one position.

Only his eyeballs could move, and he looked at Mu Fei with a squinted eye as he walked by him.

At this moment, the guard's thoughts were, Your Majesty, I have tried my best, and if you want to blame someone, blame the other party for being too strong and your incompetence.

Mu Fei brushed past the guard, came to the door, and gently pushed the door open.

There was a creaking sound, and the door was opened. At first glance, many eyes were staring at Mu Fei.

Looking at Mu Fei, a stranger, some of them were confused, but more people were afraid.

Basically, two or three people hugged each other, staring at Mu Fei, and the only hope in their hearts was that Mu Fei was not here to take their lives.

Mu Fei also glanced at them.

I have to say that the emperor really knows how to enjoy himself. Many of these women are old, but still full of charm.

Especially this skin, which is very well maintained, and there is no wrinkle.

With this appearance, it is not bad compared to the immortal cultivators.

It is a gentleman like Mu Fei. If it were someone else, he would definitely commit a crime.
