Nine Princes Struggle for the Throne: The Mad Prince

Chapter 470 Protest by Surname, Hall of Merit Established

"Your Majesty, are you okay?"

Jiang Pingle looked at Qin Wu with some worry.

She saw the situation clearly; an ordinary person would probably not survive in that situation.

She never imagined that such a terrifying thing existed in the world.

Fortunately, this time it was targeted at Qin Wu; if it had been targeted at someone else, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

"It's alright. Fortunately, my soul had reached perfection before, otherwise this time it would have been even more dangerous."

Qin Wu said softly.

He couldn't help but feel fortunate; if the immortal veins had attacked first, his soul strength might not have been enough to withstand it.

It was precisely because of this, thanks to the intervention of the demons, that his soul was able to reach perfection, allowing him to overcome this crisis at minimal cost.

However, he was very curious to know what that highly poisonous centipede actually was.

That's terrifying.

One can't help but marvel at how a power that has existed for countless eras truly possesses a foundation that is incomparable to that of ordinary powers.

Even so, Qin Wu would not suffer this loss in silence.

Now that they've made their move, Qin Wu shouldn't blame them for retaliating.

"Ping Le, thank you so much this time."

Qin Wu spoke gently to Jiang Pingle.

"Your Majesty, it is my honor to be able to help you. There is no need for such formalities between husband and wife."

Jiang Pingle gently said, holding Qin Wu's hand.

After the couple spent some time together, Qin Wu summoned the commander of his personal guards.

"His Majesty."

The Grand Commander bowed to Qin Wu.

"Issue an order to the eight royal clans to go all out. I will make the Demon Realm and the Immortal Vein pay the price, and let them know that if they dare to attack me, they must be prepared to pay the price."

Qin Wu exuded a strong killing intent.

He wanted the world to know that he, Qin Wu, was not so easily fooled.

Upon hearing that the Demon Realm and the Immortal Vein dared to plot against His Majesty, the Grand Commander was immediately enraged.

"Your Majesty, rest assured, this humble general will take care of it immediately."

After the president finished speaking, he disappeared from the spot.

"Ping Le, go back and appease the harem first. Your sudden seclusion with me might cause some people to start making trouble again."

Qin Wu turned to Jiang Pingle and said.

"Alright, then I'll head back now."

After bowing to Qin Wu, Jiang Pingyue disappeared into the hall.

Qin Wu also began to cultivate again, as he needed to recover his soul power.

...................

The Grand Commander received Qin Wu's decree.

He arrived at the cabinet immediately and conveyed Qin Wu's decree to the cabinet ministers.

The cabinet ministers had speculated that something serious had happened to their emperor after Qin Wu's sudden departure.

Now that Qin Wu has suddenly issued an imperial decree, they have learned that His Majesty's sudden departure decades ago was actually due to a plot by the Demon Realm and the Immortal Vein.

Immediately, all the cabinet ministers present were enraged.

Since the establishment of their Great Qin Dynasty, no force has dared to plot against their Emperor.

This time, they must pay the price.

"Your Majesty, we will certainly fulfill your decree and begin preparations immediately."

Without the slightest hesitation, the First Cabinet immediately accepted the order.

"Very well, Your Majesty's decree has been conveyed, then I shall take my leave."

After the president finished speaking, he disappeared.

After the president left, all the cabinet members immediately began to discuss the subsequent deployment of troops.

After several hours of discussion, they finalized their troop deployment plan.

He immediately sent His Majesty's decree to the eight royal families.

Upon receiving Qin Wu's decree, the eight royal families did not hesitate at all and immediately mustered their troops.

Subsequently, the eight royal families directly dispatched troops to the border.

With the deployment of troops by the eight royal clans, all forces in the entire Qin Dynasty were shaken.

None of them expected that the eight royal families would make a move at this time.

People began to speculate about the reasons behind this, wondering why the eight royal families, who had remained inactive, would suddenly send troops abroad at this time.

It should be noted that the eight royal families are the pillars of the entire Qin Dynasty, and they generally do not make any moves.

This only happens after something major has occurred.

Now, except for the Divine Martial Army, which has not moved, it can be said that all the main force legions have been mobilized.

Could something have happened at the front?

The ministers all began sending people to the border to find out if something major had happened there.

They actually mobilized the eight royal families at this time.

However, their investigation revealed that nothing major had happened at the border.

This puzzled the various factions. If nothing major had happened, why mobilize the armies of the eight royal families?

This matter is full of suspicious points and is completely baffling.

Finally, news spread from somewhere that this matter might be related to His Majesty, and that it was a decree suddenly issued by His Majesty.

This left all the factions even more puzzled as to why His Majesty would suddenly issue such an order.

However, their status was insufficient, and they ultimately could not achieve the results they desired.

They could only cooperate with the imperial court's actions.

However, with the intervention of the eight royal families, these people became even more enthusiastic about sending people to the front lines to join the army.

After all, this time all 36 noble clans, 12 ducal clans, and 8 royal clans have come out; they are eating meat, and others also want to have some soup.

And so, the various forces of the Qin Dynasty went into a frenzy once again.

Not only them, but the common people also began to go crazy. They all wanted to go to the front line to make contributions and bring glory to their families.

However, now that the armies don't need to conscript soldiers at all, the people have begun to become dissatisfied.

They even petitioned the court to request that the dynasty conscript soldiers.

This is something that would never have happened in other dynasties or imperial dynasties.

But this happened precisely during the Qin Dynasty.

However, the imperial court could not do anything to the people, since they had not rebelled; they were merely asking the court to conscript soldiers, as they wanted to go to the front lines to fight for the dynasty.

If it is suppressed, it will surely cause great chaos.

This immediately caused a major headache for all the cabinet ministers.

Finally, when Qin Wu came out of the pass, they found him immediately and reported the matter to him.

Let Qin Wu make the decision and see how to handle this matter.

After careful consideration, Qin Wu finally made a decision.

"Pass down the order to the Ministry of War to immediately establish a special department to issue missions. Anyone who hunts down members of the Demon Clan, Immortal Clan, Monster Clan, or Buddhist Clan can exchange their merit points for various cultivation techniques, martial arts skills, elixirs, and treasures."

"Let's call this department the Hall of Merit! And all future missions related to the war can be issued here."

"Let's consider it a benefit for the people! After all, the people are willing to make sacrifices for our Great Qin, and we cannot let them down."

Qin Wu shared his thoughts.

With the existence of this Hall of Merit, he believed that the current situation of the Great Qin Dynasty could definitely be resolved.

The cabinet ministers' eyes lit up when they heard Qin Wu's decision.

This is a great idea! This way, even if the dynasty doesn't conscript soldiers, the common people will still have a place to earn merit.

The people will surely be satisfied with this decision.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I will arrange it immediately."

The First Cabinet said excitedly.

With this solution, he no longer has a headache.

"Alright, let's make the arrangements! Release the news first to prevent the people from continuing to cause trouble."

Qin Wu nodded slightly.

"Yes."

The cabinet ministers immediately accepted the order and left.
