The Heavens: Civilization Cultivator

Chapter 87 Blood on Clothes

With the help of the White Lotus Sect and the Bai family, Lei Cang successfully captured Cangzhou, Lingzhou and Haizhou, and wiped out all the rebels in them.

Even most of the aristocratic families have been covered up.

Although they didn't ransack the family like the Duan family in Jiangzhou, they also paid a lot of money, land, food and grass.

Now Lei Cang completely controlled the land of the Six States, and it was the most fertile and prosperous area in the Wu Dynasty.

In addition, among the remaining seven states, three states also belonged to the Wu Dynasty in name.

Since then, in the eyes of the world, the general trend of the Wu Dynasty has been determined.

With the help of Lei Cang, the national destiny of the Wu Dynasty has continued.

People all over the world praised Lei Cang as the minister of Zhongxing in the Wu Dynasty, and the contemporary king was the master of Zhongxing, and praised him.

Lei Cang, who has made such great achievements in battle, naturally also received the promotion of the king of the people, and was directly named Duke, Xia Guogong!

But those who are interested can see Lei Cang's ambition.

He is by no means limited to being a powerful minister.

The facts are indeed good. In the next few years, Lei Cang was not in a hurry to encircle and suppress the remaining four states that had fallen into the hands of rebels.

Instead, they began to issue decrees one by one in the name of the king, such as reducing taxes or even eliminating taxes in various places for several years, and providing relief to the poor in areas affected by natural disasters.

Let the people who have suffered from years of natural disasters, wars, aristocratic families, and corrupt officials be able to recuperate.

Slowly, Lei Cang's reputation among the people became higher and higher.

The world only knows Lei Cang as the 'Duke Xia', but not the name of the contemporary king! !

This is the master of high merit!

As the young King grew up and heard more and more rumors about Lei Cang, he naturally became more dissatisfied with Lei Cang in his heart.

What's more, under Lei Cang's intervention, the Human King has never been able to govern himself.

All matters in the court, big or small, have to go through the hands of Lei Cang, the Duke of Xia, before they can be handed over to the king for inspection.

The decrees issued by the Human King also need to be issued through the hands of Lei Cang.

It can be said that Lei Cang is the king regent on the bright side! !

"There are still four prefectures that have not yet been pacified. If Lei Cang pacifies them and receives great credit, wouldn't the next step be to ask me for the king's title?"

Thinking of this in the heart of the contemporary king, it is even more unpleasant.

It can be said that it was not his wish that Lei Cang was conferred the title of Xia Guogong back then.

He also knew that conferring such a high title all at once would only lead to nothing to confer in the future.

He originally wanted to make Lei Cang a Marquis or Earl.

But under Lei Cang's control, he was unable to refute at all when he was young at the time, so he could only choose to make him a duke.

"If he is not satisfied anymore, does he want the position of my king?"

Now that Lei Cang's skills are so high, the contemporary king has the idea of ​​killing him. He just took this opportunity to get back his power and truly become the master of ZTE in the Wu Dynasty.

"However, Lei Cang is a top expert in the sixth level of martial arts. The world says that he has the strength of the top ten in the world. It is not an easy task to kill him."

As for mobilizing the army to encircle and kill Lei Cang, let's not talk about whether the crowd tactics will work against Lei Cang.

The king of men doesn't even have an army in his hands now!

The military power of the Wu Dynasty was basically in the hands of Lei Cang and his confidant generals.

"No! I still have hole cards!" The king thought of the 20 or 30 sixth-tier heavenly warriors enshrined by the Wu Dynasty.

"I don't believe that those people were all gathered by Lei Cang, there must still be top fighters who are interested in the Wu Dynasty."

As long as he can get online with a few top masters from the sixth heaven and get their support, then the Human King will summon Lei Cang to the palace to have an audience.

In the case of many to one, there is still hope for the Human King to win!

"Just do it!"

King Ren is determined to get rid of Lei Cang.

So in the days that followed, the King of Humans sought opportunities to meet various sixth-level heavenly warriors of the Wu Dynasty.

Through insinuations, he really found out that several warriors had their heart towards the court and him, the king, and they were also dissatisfied with Lei Cang's interference in the government.

After all, the decrees issued by Lei Cang in these years are indeed very good for the common people.

But for the families and sects of these warriors, the influence is very bad.

Among the warriors who can cultivate to the sixth heaven, which one does not have a powerful force behind them.

The king of men was very excited, and felt that these people could all be won over.

King Ren hurriedly wrote an edict with blood on his clothes, and asked his confidants to send it to these people, telling him about his plan to get rid of Lei Cang.

After receiving the clear reply from the seven sixth-layer heaven warriors, the King of Humans was full of confidence.

"The seven sixth-level heaven warriors, even the strongest in the world, will probably die of hatred!"

...

Three months passed in the blink of an eye, and King Ren finally found a suitable time to do it.

It was a dark and windy night.

Lei Cang, who was cultivating in Duke Xia's mansion, suddenly received an edict from the King of Ren, inviting him to enter the palace to discuss the important matter of conquering the rebels in the remaining four states.

The crusade against the rebels has indeed been discussed many times in the court in the past few years. The king of men and all the civil and military officials hope that Lei Cang can wipe out the rebels as soon as possible.

Otherwise, give them time and wait for them to consolidate their territory.

Even if it is recovered later, the Wu Dynasty will have to be rebuilt.

But these suggestions were rejected by Lei Cang with various reasons.

So at this moment the King of People summoned Lei Cang to discuss this matter, there is nothing suspicious about it.

Lei Cang, wearing a sword at his waist, passed through palace gates all the way, accompanied by only a few personal guards.

As the most powerful person in the Wu Dynasty, Lei Cang had the privilege of freely entering and leaving the palace with weapons.

Of course, the sword on Lei Cang's waist was just a decoration.

His exclusive weapon is still a spear, which is carried by a personal guard.

After all, the spear is too long, and it is very indecent for Lei Cang to carry it by himself, so naturally he has to let his subordinates do it for him.

Lei Cang walked all the way to the Palace of Imperial Books, while several personal guards were guarding the outside of the palace, he strolled into it.

Looking at the young king wearing a dragon robe in the Palace of Imperial Books, Lei Cang bowed slightly to him

"See Your Majesty."

In name, Lei Cang was still a courtier of the Wu Dynasty, so this bit of etiquette was naturally required.

The Human King ignored Lei Cang's salute, but said decisively: "Everyone, do it!!"

As he said that, the King of Humans quickly retreated to prevent being affected by the upcoming battle.

While retreating, the King of Humans said loudly: "Lei Cang, you traitorous minister and traitor are so ambitious that you dare to touch the sacred artifacts of the country. Today is the time for your burial!"

boom!

The surrounding blood surged into the sky, setting off a billowing heat wave.

At this time, Lei Cang finally noticed the seven sixth-layer heavenly warriors hiding in the dark corner of the Royal Book Palace.

Lei Cang's face was slightly condensed, but he didn't panic at all.

"It seems that His Majesty wants to get rid of the minister today."

"Then, do you know, Your Majesty, did you know about the ambush you and others have made against the minister today?"

The faces of the Human King and the seven sixth-layer heaven warriors changed greatly upon hearing this.

Did Lei Cang see their plan from the beginning to the end?

A warrior's eyes sharpened: "Don't talk nonsense with him! Even if he is prepared, with the strength of the seven of us, he will definitely be able to kill him!"

"We have no way out, we swear to kill this thief today!" Several people looked at each other and attacked one after another.

"kill!"

Lei Cang's figure retreated towards the gate of the palace, he wanted to get his spear weapon first.

"You want to kill me."

"I'm also thinking of using your hands to help me take a step further in martial arts!!"

"Then let's see who is more skilled!!"
