The first thousand and twenty-four chapters swallow the world
The reason why the current situation is that, in addition to Xia Fan's absence, the two of them seem to have no backbone and are not very brave enough to unscrupulously seek money and food from the aristocratic family, is also related to the Thirteenth Prince.
The Thirteenth Prince stayed in the army all the time, and he followed almost everywhere Yu Kongyue's army fought. He then recruited local officials, striving to maintain the political situation and avoiding the livelihoods of the people being too severely affected.
Because the Thirteenth Prince is dedicated to stability, he is definitely more conservative when doing things. At the same time, his slightly awkward identity also makes him less courage to open up and get along.
For example, Zhao Wei and Liu Yulinglong are Xia Fan's brothers after all, and they accompanied Xia Fan to conquer the world from the beginning. They dared to do some things, and even if there was a problem, Xia Fan might not do anything to them.
However, the Thirteenth Prince was Xia Fan's junior brother. He did not accompany Xia Fan to fight everywhere at first, and now he can't do anything without any worries. Especially when he is still the prince of the Han Dynasty, if he really does something, he might be suspected of having ulterior motives.
Because of this, the Thirteenth Prince is based on stability in everything. In this way, many problems that should not be encountered will naturally arise.
Zhao Wei and Liu Yulinglong knew that the Thirteenth Prince was helping to stabilize the situation, and this was Xia Fan's order. Of course, they were not good at blaming the Thirteenth Prince, so even if they felt unhappy in some places, they could only pinch their noses and endure it.
But they were not the kind of people who took the loss as a blessing after all. They didn't know how many accounts they had recorded in private. They just waited for Xia Fan to come back and then attacked him after getting his permission.
Now that Xia Fan's consent is the two of them, of course, will not hesitate anymore. They will directly call their respective confidants, and then take out the accounts they had recorded before, preparing to settle the accounts with someone.
Xia Fan didn't know how great the storm Zhao Wei and Liu Yulinglong would cause, and he didn't care. He had appeared in Yu Kongyue's army now, but he did not go to Yu Kongyue, but wanted to talk to the Thirteenth Prince first.
"Junior brother, I'm not here for this period of time, thank you for your hard work." Xia Fan poured a cup of tea and handed it to the Thirteenth Prince, saying, "You have made the greatest contribution to these territories you have captured before, but it is not enough to just tolerate those aristocratic families in order to seek stability."
"Please give me advice." The Thirteenth Prince was not upset by Xia Fan's words, and asked him seriously.
"Being more lenient to the aristocratic family can certainly make the market stable as soon as possible, but the disadvantage brought by this is that they will gain a better position and even endanger our rule." Xia Fan did not need to hide in front of the Thirteenth Prince, so his words were very straightforward.
"If you are one point a little bit higher today, they will keep making various requests in the future. If they are not satisfied, they will use various means to secretly fight against us. This is definitely not something I can accept." Xia Fan shook his head and said.
"But brother, aren't you afraid that the situation that has finally stabilized will become chaotic again?" The Thirteenth Prince said with some concern.
"Junior brother, you made a mistake. This is not the Han Dynasty, so there is no need to worry too much." Xia Fan smiled slightly and said, "Some words I have told Zhao Wei and Liu Yulinglong before. Now I will tell you, I have never been afraid of chaos. As long as my knife is powerful enough, whoever dares to jump out and make trouble for me, then I will kill whoever I will."
"But is this a bit too simple and rough?" The Thirteenth Prince frowned and said, "If you just kill, it will certainly make those aristocratic families afraid, but it will be difficult for people to truly be loyal to you in the future."
"Even if they don't kill them, they may not be loyal to us." Xia Fan sneered: "All these aristocratic families are ungrateful. Only families can have no country. If you lenient them, they don't think this is kindness, but they think that this is our fear of them, and we will inevitably be even more arrogant and proud."
"Senior brother is right." Although the Thirteenth Prince has never had much contact with politics before, he is a prince after all, and he still has some knowledge. After a little thought, he understood that Xia Fan was right.
"You gave them a lot of benefits before, but now, it's time for them to know how powerful we are." Xia Fan said.
"Then what should I do?" asked the Thirteenth Prince.
"Just do whatever you should do, just continue to do whatever you want." Xia Fan smiled and said, "Zhao You and Liu Yulinglong are bad guys, so you can come out and be a good guy. Giving a stick to a red date is the way to rule the emperor."
"Thank you for your advice from Senior Brother, I understand." The Thirteenth Prince said sincerely.
"I thank you if you want to thank you. If you have not been hardworking and hard for these days, the chaos will not be curbed so quickly. But we are in the top position and cannot be afraid of trouble. Just seek stability. When it comes to showing off our sword, there is no need to be ruthless. To clear out some aristocratic families, there is room for those who are loyal to us to rise," Xia Fan said with a smile.
"Senior brother is wise." The Thirteenth Prince said with his thumb up.
"Stop flattering."
After joking, Xia Fan left the 13th Prince's camp and went to find Yu Kongyue.
"Why did you go so long this time?" Yu Kongyue did not have the coldness and arrogance he usually used to command thousands of troops in front of Xia Fan, and her face showed the warmth that only couples could have.
"There was something unexpected that exceeded my expectations, but it was not a bad thing..." Xia Fan briefly explained his experience of going to the capital this time, and finally took out his Tianyan Pocket and opened the bag and said, "Come and take a look."
When I went to the Demon Realm, Yu Kongyue stayed in the pocket of Swallowing Heaven and was no stranger to him. She immediately came over and looked into the bag, and then couldn't help but look surprised and said, "This is... a new world!"
"Haha, that's true, but it's not complete." Xia Fan was very satisfied with Yu Kongyue's reaction and explained with a smile: "This is some of the insights I got when I returned to the sect and saw what my husband left behind. It was only a prototype. It would be absolutely not easy to become a real world."
"Even so, that's already quite amazing." Yu Kongyue said in an envious and yearning manner: "I can't even open up a world, even if I open up a space, I can't do it. As the Grandmaster realm, we are too far apart."
"If you want to learn, I can teach you." Xia Fan said.
"No, no, no." Yu Kongyue shook her head and said, "You have to understand this kind of thing yourself. After all, your Tao is different from mine. If I just learn from you, I might not be able to find my Tao again."
"It would be best if you can understand this." Xia Fan said with a smile.
"Has the space in the Swallowing Heaven's pocket become larger again?" Yu Kongyue asked.
"Yeah." Xia Fan nodded and said, "As I began to open up the world, the space in the Tianshen Pocket is indeed expanding, but this is not surprising. Although the original Tianshen Potter worm has been slaughtered, its potential is not bad. Now if I dig it hard, it may not be impossible to improve the quality again."
"I'm thinking, didn't you say you wanted to conquer that multi-armed world?" Yu Kongyue said: "If you bring your troops into your bag, then you don't have to worry about not having any soldiers available."
"I don't have this idea, but now our military strength is still a little weaker." Xia Fan shook his head and said, "When you are not busy, you can go over and take a look. When you see the fierceness of those multi-armed people, you will know how much different our military and horses are from them."
"What about the soldiers of the demon clan? Is there a big gap between them and the multi-arm clan?" Yu Kongyue asked again.
"I can't say this, I'll go and see it with my own eyes when you have the chance." Xia Fan said this, looked outside and said, "Have you ever fought with Long Xiaoshu?"
"The competition has been fought twice." Yu Kongyue nodded and said, "This man seems arrogant, but he is very cautious, and his strength is not weak, so it is not easy for me to kill him."
"Do you need my help?" Xia Fan asked.
"No need." Yu Kongyue shook her head and smiled: "I have captured most of the Holy Dragon Kingdom now and have shown an urge to surround it. Unless Long Xiaoshu can be willing to be the king of the destruction of the country and leave the Holy Dragon Kingdom and flee, he will have to fight me head-on to death, and then it will be his death."
"Since you know it, I won't interfere any more." Xia Fan nodded and said, "I'm going to go to Xuantian Cliff to see. Jade Rat and Mr. Huang have been hit by the Grandmaster's Poison. You can't just forget about this. I want to discuss with Master Bao how to avenge them."
"Go." Yu Kongyue said: "As long as you don't go, you will probably not be able to see each other for half a month. Even if I don't miss you, it's not good to let Fairy Yunxi and Qinglian Taoist Girl miss you every day and talk about it all the time."
"Don't worry, no." Xia Fan smiled slightly in the face of Yu Kongyue's teasing, waved his hand and flew into the air.
When he arrived at Xuantian Cliff, Xia Fan found that there had been a lot of changes here compared to when he came last time. It can be seen that the old man of the formation and his disciples were quite concerned about this temple. Xia Fan was happy to see it.
However, Xia Fan did not see the formation elder. After asking, he learned that he had gone to the multi-armed world and was invited by the invitation of Master Bao and others to set up several formations.
Xia Fan nodded and immediately appeared in the multi-armed world through the space channel.
"Huh." As soon as he arrived in the multi-armed world, Xia Fan felt a strange look. It turned out that the Tianyan pocket hanging on his waist was trembling slightly, giving people a feeling of being ready to move.
However, after all, the Swallowing Pocket is already a magic weapon and has no magic weapon. Therefore, it cannot communicate with Xia Fan and tell him what he wants to do. However, Xia Fan had a vague guess. After walking out of the tribute card at any time, he flashed tens of thousands of miles away, and then opened the Swallowing Pocket.
"Hu..." In an instant, his pockets were so huge that it was swept away like a huge mouth that swallowed the sky and swallowed towards a mountain standing in front of Xia Fan that was seven or eight hundred feet high and four or five hundred miles long.
"Boom..." With the earth-shaking loud noise, the originally green mountains had disappeared, and even the land below was gone, replaced by a huge pit that was unsightly.
This scene made Xia Fan open his eyes wide in shock. It was like someone was eating watermelons. Not only did he eat the flesh of the melon, but he even chewed the melon peel together. So in one bite, there was a big hole in the complete watermelon.
"If it was swallowed like this by the Swallowing Pocket, would this world be swallowed by it?" When Xia Fan keenly felt that when the mountain entered the Swallowing Pocket, the space in the Swallowing Pocket also expanded, he couldn't help but have such a guess in his heart.
At this moment, Xia Fan was surprised again, and more joy.
