Chapter 837: Nine Concubines of Northern Mang
"Being plotted!"

Su Mingzhe, who was far away in Beimang, received the report from his clone Ye Song and immediately guessed the details!
Zhang Fuyao, the ancestor of Confucianism, possesses 80% of the luck of Confucianism. Once he ascends to become an immortal, he can condense the golden dragon of Confucian luck and transform into a Daluo Jinxian.

The same reason.

After Su Mingzhe unified the world, as long as he gathered 80% of the dynasty's luck in the world, he could use this 80% of the dynasty's luck to master a great law, and then improve his cultivation from the early stage of Daluo Jinxian to the middle stage of Daluo Jinxian.

"These scumbags in the Immortal Realm are afraid that my cultivation will become stronger and stronger, so they simply help me condense a golden dragon of luck, and then let this golden dragon of luck reincarnate as my son."

"Luckily, these bastards can come up with this idea!"

"But this move is really powerful!"

"After all, even a tiger won't eat its own cubs!"

"I can't pull the golden dragon of luck out of my son's body, can I?"

Su Mingzhe resisted the urge to rush to the fairyland and cause trouble for the Five Great Emperors, and instead led the Shu army to continue sweeping across Northern Mang.

Autumn of the tenth year of Guangwu.

In the territory of Beimang, all resistance forces were slaughtered by the angry Su Mingzhe.

There were originally 20 to 30 million people on the grassland, but after this war, only more than 2 million households and more than 7 million people were left.

"Emperor Shu, you are too cruel!"

The aging Queen of Beimang, upon learning that two-thirds of the people of Beimang had been massacred, ran angrily to the door of Su Mingzhe's "bedroom" with the help of Tuoba Bodhisattva, leaning on a cane, and clamored to settle the score with him!
"Murong, please stop being so presumptuous!"

When Hongshu heard the noise, he ran out immediately. Looking at the Queen of Beimang who was over fifty years old and had turned into an old woman, he frowned and stopped her.

The Queen of Beimang was born into the Murong family of Beimang. After marrying the former emperor of Beimang, she used various means to become the "Wu Zetian" of Beimang.

As for Hongshu, she was born into the Yelu clan, the royal family of Beimang. Her relationship with the Beimang empress should be considered as that of "aunt" and "niece".

"Am I presumptuous?"

When the Queen of Northern Mang saw that Su Mingzhe refused to come out and only let Hongshu, a little girl, come out, she immediately became furious:
"The Emperor of Shu broke the agreement. He must give me an explanation today!"

"Give you an explanation?"

Hongshu sneered, showing disdain:

"Murong, what qualifications do you have to say this?"

"Back then, when you ascended the throne and became emperor, didn't you also say in front of all the ancestors of the Northern Mang that you would treat the Yelu clan well? As a result, during your reign as empress, nine out of ten households in the Yelu clan were wiped out, and only one out of a hundred survived. Did you just throw away what you said?"

As the saying goes, the winner is the king and the loser is the bandit.

The Queen of Beimang has already become a prisoner, how could she have the courage to come to the "bedroom" of the Emperor of Shu to ask for an explanation!

Although Hongshu also felt that Su Mingzhe had killed too many people this time, men were her heaven and she would not allow others to slander her man.

Even if this person is the former Queen of Beimang, it won’t work!
"Your Majesty is benevolent and wise! Those people were killed because they did not know the destiny and insisted on fighting against the heavenly soldiers!"

Hongshu scolded the Queen of Beimang, and seeing that the old woman wanted to say something, he waved his hand, and the master of Qile Sword Palace who was in charge of guarding the palace gate immediately stepped forward and asked her to leave.

Tuoba Bodhisattva did not dare to allow the Queen of Beimang to continue making trouble, and quickly pulled her away.

Hongshu returned to Su Mingzhe's "bedroom".

It is called a sleeping palace, but in fact it is a huge yurt with a diameter of 16 or 170 meters.

Inside the yurt, Su Mingzhe did not lead a life of extravagance and luxury. Instead, he sat cross-legged, practicing the [Heaven-Swallowing Technique].

As mentioned before, this [Heaven-Swallowing Technique] can devour everything in the world.

Even the luck between heaven and earth is also within the range of being swallowed.

After several years of hard work and practice, Su Mingzhe has almost mastered the [Heaven-Swallowing Technique] to perfection.

"I already have the cultivation base of a Daluo Jinxian. It will take me another ten years to cultivate a Daluo Jinxian-level technique."

"It's no wonder. Nangong Pushe has been practicing the Tai Chi Sword Canon for ten years and has not yet reached perfection!"

Hongshu entered the "bedroom" and recounted the situation of the Northern Mang Queen coming to cause trouble.

"Ignore her! If she dares to cause trouble next time, you can drag Han Gu over and let her teach her a lesson!"

Aunt Han is one of the five top masters of Beimang Qilejian Mansion.

She was also chosen by the Queen of Beimang as the future Crown Princess.

After Su Mingzhe launched the Northern Expedition, Han Gu and the masters of Qi Le Jian Mansion were captured by Su Mingzhe, and then harmed by Su Mingzhe.

The current Han Gu is one of Su Mingzhe's nine concubines in Beimang.

The first of the nine concubines of Beimang was Nangong Pushe, who came from the Nangong family of Beimang.

Nangong Pushe has been with Su Mingzhe for many years, and he also followed him in this Northern Expedition.

Before pacifying Beimang, Su Mingzhe stayed at the Nangong family for a few days.

It was during those days that Su Mingzhe took Nangong Pushe under his wing.

Later, when the Queen of Beimang surrendered, Su Mingzhe appointed Nangong Pushe as the first concubine of Beimang when he conferred titles on the nine concubines of Beimang.

The second concubine was Hongshu, who was from the Yelu clan, a royal family of Beimang.

Hongshu is the niece of the Lord of Dunhuang City, and is now the second concubine among the nine concubines of Beimang.

The third concubine was the jewel of the Beimang royal family—Huyan Guanyin.

Huyan Guanyin, who embodies 60% of the luck of the Northern Mang Dynasty, has a simple mind. After being found by Su Mingzhe, she was named the third concubine of the Northern Mang Dynasty.

The fourth and fifth concubines represent the big and small thoughts in the princess's tomb.

Da Nian Ting was originally Huang Baozhuang, one of the masters of Qilejian Mansion. When Su Mingzhe was fighting against the master of Beimang alone, Da Nian Ting awakened his past life memory and found out that he was actually the empress Luoyang of the Qin Emperor. He then quietly fled back to Gongzhufen to avoid the front of the Shu army.

However, Su Mingzhe's sweep of Beimang was a carpet-style attack.

When Su Mingzhe attacked all the way to Princess Tomb, Big Thought, who had already awakened his past life memories, had no choice but to be captured and became Su Mingzhe's fourth and fifth concubines of Beimang.

(My little thought is that she is the reincarnation of a concubine named Yang from the Qin Emperor!)

The sixth concubine is Han Gu, who was born in Qilejian Mansion.

Aunt Han has a beautiful appearance and a great talent in martial arts. She is one of the top five masters in Qilejian Mansion.

The Queen of Beimang originally wanted to give Han Gu to her son to be the future Crown Princess.

As a result, after being captured by Su Mingzhe, Han Gu was harmed that night.

The seventh concubine is Nannan, the daughter of Huyan Daguan, the first master of Beimang.

Huyan Daguan, known as one of the few immortals in the world with his own sect, is one of the few land immortals who can ascend to the fairyland anytime and anywhere.

The eighth concubine, the fifth daughter of the army, is the daughter of the Shanshan sect.

The ninth concubine, Murong Jiuer, the niece of the Queen of Beimang and the legitimate daughter of the Murong family.

Logically speaking, if the Queen of Beimang came to cause trouble, and Su Mingzhe really wanted to calm things down, he should let Murong Jiuer come forward.

However, Su Mingzhe asked Han Gu to come forward, which meant breaking off relations and humiliating the Queen of Beimang.

After hearing this, Hongshu didn't try to persuade him and nodded in agreement immediately.

The reason why Su Mingzhe did not kill the Queen of Beimang was that he wanted to quickly win over and appease the people of Beimang through her.

But after the empress surrendered, he realized that he had overthought.

As a dynasty on the grassland, the people of Beimang have always "feared power but not virtue".

Although Su Mingzhe captured the Queen of Northern Mang and defeated Northern Mang masters such as Tuoba Bodhisattva and Huyan Daguan, he still could not stop some people who were ignorant of the world and raised the banner of rebellion.

Since the Queen of Beimang can no longer play any role, why should Su Mingzhe still indulge her?
With the bloody suppression, the voices of resistance on the Beimang grassland finally died down.

The eleventh year of Guangwu.

When Su Mingzhe led the army back, he renamed Beiliang to "Gyeonggi Province" and Lingzhou to "Shendu".

From now on, the capital of the Great Shu Kingdom is the 'Gyeonggi Province Divine Capital'!
The twelfth year of Emperor Guangwu’s reign.

Su Mingzhe officially canonized the eldest son born to Jiang Ni as the crown prince of the Great Shu Dynasty.

The second son born to Xu Zhihu was the King of Shu.

Jiang Ni's remaining second legitimate son (the third son of the emperor) was made King of Chu.

The fourth son born to Zhao Fengya was Prince of Yan.

The fifth son born to Xu Weixiong was King of Jing.

……

The third legitimate son (the emperor's sixteenth son) born to Jiang Ni was the King of Wu.

The seventeenth son born to Nangong Pushe was King of Yue.

The eighteenth son born to Huyan Guanyin was the King of Qi.

……

There were a total of twenty-two princes, and all of them, regardless of their age, were made kings and ruled over a county.

Yes, that’s right, it means being in charge of a county!
After the Great Shu Kingdom unified the world, Su Mingzhe divided the world into thirty-six regions and more than five hundred prefectures and counties (here, prefectures and counties are of the same level).

Because the subdivided area is particularly small.

A county in the Great Shu Kingdom was only two or three hundred miles in radius.

The more prosperous states and counties have a population of three to five hundred thousand.

For the more dilapidated states and counties, a population of 50,000 or 60,000 is considered good.

Su Mingzhe granted the prince only one county, which was a bit remote and would seem "meager".

But he did it anyway.

The concubines in the harem and the princes did not dare to say anything.

After the princes were enfeoffed, Su Mingzhe began to rule the country from behind and spent most of his time practicing in the harem.

In a blink of an eye, it was the 35th year of Emperor Guangwu's reign.

Su Mingzhe finally cultivated the [Heaven-Swallowing Art] to perfection, and his cultivation reached a higher level, from the early stage of Daluo Jinxian to the middle stage of Daluo Jinxian.

"It's a pity that the dynasty's luck golden dragon was reborn as the emperor's sixteenth son. Otherwise, I would have reached the late stage of the Golden Immortal by now!"

Although Su Mingzhe felt sorry, he didn't do anything to his son.

After all, even a tiger won't eat its own cubs.

“However, even if there is no Golden Dragon of Luck, the cultivation method of this world is extremely precious.”

"For example, the Daode Sect's [One Qi Transformed into Three Pure Ones] is exactly the same as the [One Qi Transformed into Three Pure Ones] of the Daozu of the Primordial World."

"Also, the 'Avatar Reincarnation Method' of the Five Great Emperors of the Immortal Realm!"

"There is also the way of the sword... the way of Confucianism..."
