.........

Concubine Yan left the palace in despair and returned to the bedroom.

She is also thinking about whether to completely fall to Xia Ji.

This will be an unprecedented change in her life.

..........

Above the summer palace hall.

Concubine Yan just left not long ago.

But someone else asked to see him.

In other words, now the people who want to see Xia Ji are already lined up outside.

What happened last night had a big impact.

Almost all the officials from the DPRK and China went outside the palace gate to ask for an interview.

In this regard, Xia Ji ignored them.

These people either came to show their attitude and stand in line, or they came to hear the truth.

Just leave it to Cao Changqing to deal with it.

Moreover, this is also beneficial for the future court to make Cao Changqing convince the public.

but.

The person who asked to see this time was different, but the person was the Minister of the Household, Pei Ju.

Hearing Pei Ju coming to see him, Xia Ji also chuckled.

Can't stand it anymore...

soon.

under the guidance of a waiter.

Pei Ju stepped forward.

Under the heavy imperial majesty, he also froze.

Seeing Wu Zhao's attitude towards Xia Ji again, it was completely the attitude of a submissive.

This made all his conjectures answered.

It was not Wu Zhao who controlled the Emperor.

But it has already been subdued by the emperor!

Such information also shocked Pei Ju.

Even a arrogant woman like Wu Zhao can be subdued, the Emperor Xia Ji is by no means easy!

"Pei Ju, you came to see me, but what have you reported?"

Xia Ji spoke lightly.

He was also thinking about how to completely subdue Pei Ju.

In fact, this person does not have any bad intentions, even if he is looking for the Evil Emperor relic, it is only to cure his madness.

However, the Evil Emperor's relic had already been absorbed by Wu Zhao.

perhaps.

It is possible to know from his mouth whether there is something comparable to the Evil Emperor's relic in this imperial city.

Xia Jixin calculated the bottom line, but his face was calm.

Hearing this, Pei Ju also reacted.

He lowered his head and said, "Your Majesty, this time, I am here to plead guilty."

He was the minister of household and was in charge of the country's fiscal revenue and expenditure.

Now that the treasury is empty, it is also his dereliction of duty and failure to do his best.

Moreover, this matter is said to be a crime of deceiving the king.

After all, he had already noticed the problems in the accounts.

But because of his involvement with the Queen Mother, he also opened one eye and closed the other.

Now, after realizing that Xia Ji was unusual.

Pei Ju also made preparations.

It's just that he was puzzled.

Why is there no background background, and it is Xia Ji who has been circulated as waste wood since he was young.

How can it suddenly rise?

Could it be that he has already opened the royal arsenal?

"You're very interesting." Xia Ji smiled lightly: "You don't need to ask for sin. I also know a little bit about the past, so I can't blame you."

"However, from now on, if you do your best, you will not only let go of everything that happened in the past, but you will still be able to sit in the seat of the Minister of the Household."

"Would you like to?"

Xia Ji spoke directly.

Now that the imperial city controls most of it, there is no need to hide it.

He has completely mastered the dominance and can act arbitrarily.

"My minister, thank you Your Majesty." Pei Ju gave a deep salute.

He also understands his own situation.

Now that the queen has been completely subdued by the emperor, if you want to find the dragon vein, you must rely on the emperor.

He didn't believe that there was really no background behind Xia Ji.

For example, the Confucian scholar in Tsing Yi who greeted hundreds of officials outside the palace gate.

The aura that occasionally radiated from his body made him feel cold all over his body.

This alone made Pei Ju no longer in the mood to resist.

but.

His doubts deepened.

Pei Ju tentatively asked: "Your Majesty has already opened the arsenal? If His Majesty can give the minister a little dragon vein essence, the minister will do his best and die!"

This is a big risk.

But Pei Ju's madness has become more frequent these days.

Most of the time, he needs to be bound with an arm-thick iron chain all over his body.

Pei Ju continued: "To be honest with Your Majesty, this subject has a madness, and when it attacks, it is like a different person. If it cannot be cured, I am afraid that I will not be able to do things for Your Majesty."

Hear what Pei Ju said.

Xia Ji was slightly startled.

arsenal?

Dragon veins?

He didn't know what these things were.

After all, his mother was killed when he was young, and he was not raised as a human emperor.

There are many things he can't touch at all.

In addition, after the death of the late emperor, he was dragged to the throne in a hurry.

He is not very clear about some of the secrets of the Daxia royal family.

But Xia Ji remained silent.

He looked at Pei Ju and said, "If you do things obediently, I will naturally give you rewards, but it is not suitable if you have not achieved an inch of merit."

"You are responsible for the allocation of this disaster relief fund. If you do well, I will reward you."

Hear this.

Pei Ju was overjoyed.

He was ready to arouse Xia Ji's disgust, and after he escaped, he was ready to live in seclusion in the forest.

But he didn't expect Xia Ji to be so reasonable.

This warmed his heart.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, I will definitely handle this matter this time!"

Pei Ju saluted respectfully.

Wait until it exits the hall.

Xia Ji called the cat and asked about the royal arsenal.

Humans and cats are also confused.

However, under the investigation of the Dongchang Factory Guard, we must be able to get its information soon.

Chapter 20 Strength skyrockets, the whole city is shocked

Someone cat shot.

Soon, the relevant news of the royal arsenal was inquired from the East Factory dossier.

Its location is just below the Summer Palace.

From the emperor's bedroom, there is a secret passage that leads directly into it.

But because the key to open the arsenal is the blood of the emperor.

What kind of situation is there, but no one knows.

After getting the news.

Xia Ji was also looking for it in the bedroom.

Then, the entrance was found in the imperial garden.

that night.

He bit his finger, and a drop of blood splattered.

Open a gap in that arsenal.

It's just that no one has gone in for decades.

The air in it is quite dirty.

By the middle of the night, the turbid air in the arsenal was almost dissipated.

Xia Ji entered it.

After passing through the long and narrow corridor, the whole picture of the arsenal was also displayed in front of Xia Ji.

This place is divided into four floors, and the collections are different.

The further down, the more precious it is.

The first floor is the martial arts secrets collected from various places after Emperor Xia ruled the world.

All are cross-training methods.

But now, Xia Ji has the body of the immovable King Ming, which is far superior to these horizontal exercises.

The books here can be read, but it will not improve his strength.

After he flipped through a few books, he walked to the second floor.
