Chapter 1623 Ruthless
To be honest, although the Nanman people are vast and have countless resources and wealth, they are too scattered and the terrain is dangerous, so they are not so easy to mine.
In addition, it has a small population and a low level of education, making it difficult to manage, and it is no match for the small countries around Yunlai Country.
It is also because of this that Tang Junming has quietly attacked Yunlai Kingdom while attacking the southern barbarian mountains in recent years. This is also because of this reason. Otherwise, how could Tang Junming have such an amazing power in a short period of time?
In the future, Yunlaiguo will be able to attack less and less, so Tang Junming should naturally focus on other places.
Just when Tang Junming began to formulate a policy of attacking neighboring countries, Emperor Yunlai suddenly ordered Tang Junming to return to the capital, saying that he wanted to praise his actions in Nantian County and give him a larger county town as the location of Kaifu Jianya.
After learning the news, Tang Junming couldn't help but sigh. To be honest, he didn't want to break up with Yunlai Emperor Duan Yuansheng, but Duan Yuansheng obviously was not going to let him go.
He has been in Nantian County for a long time and his power is here. His strategy for the Nanman Mountains is in full swing and has basically never failed. It can be said that Nantian County is his foundation.
Now, Emperor Yunlai said that he was giving him a larger county, but in fact he was seizing the foundation of Tang Junming. This situation rarely happened in the history of Yunlai Kingdom.
Once it happens, either the prince takes the initiative to request it, or the prince is operating too vigorously in Kaifu Jianya, which arouses the emperor's dissatisfaction, so he changes his territory.
Now Tang Junming did not take the initiative to ask, but Emperor Yunlai did this, obviously trying to weaken his foundation and prevent him from making great contributions to the master.
Once there is no power, what Emperor Yun Lai wants to do to him is just a matter of just one sentence.
In the past, when princes of Yunlai Kingdom encountered this situation, they could only surrender obediently and admit defeat, waiting for the emperor's ruling, and basically no good ending.
After all, no matter how powerful the princes were in the past, how could they keep up with the emperor's years of accumulation? The gap in strength alone could not be made up for those princes.
Just like Tang Junming, his own strength is not as good as that of Yunlai Emperor Duan Yuansheng. If it weren't for cheating weapons like the Tianling Martial Seal, it would be amazing to have one hundred Martial Kings at this moment, let alone one hundred Martial Kings, so it would be great to be able to conquer ten Martial Kings.
Just like the eldest prince Duan Qinghong and the eldest prince Duan Yunfeng, after more than a hundred years of hard work, only a few martial kings have truly conquered.
And after the two of them had an accident, these Martial Kings also ran away, and most of them were under Tang Junming's command at this moment.
As the top combat power of Yunlai Kingdom, King Wu is not so easy to conquer. Looking at the huge Yunlai Kingdom, the strongest practitioner is just an intermediate Wuwang.
So under normal circumstances, a prince faced the emperor's order. Even if he knew that the order was extremely unfavorable to him and would destroy his years of accumulation, these princes had to follow.
But Tang Junming is different. He is not such a prince. Facing Emperor Yunlai's merciless order, Tang Junming smiled faintly and rushed towards the capital the next day as stated in the imperial edict.
However, along the way, the martial kings joined him one after another, hiding their aura and transforming into ordinary guards, looking inconspicuous at all.
With the mysterious skills specially improved by Tang Junming, let alone the intermediate Martial King, even the advanced Martial King cannot find the difference between these guards.
By the time he arrived at the capital, Tang Junming had already gathered 107 martial kings under his command, including four intermediate martial kings, and the rest were low-level martial kings.
On the wall of the capital, Emperor Yunlai looked at Tang Junming, who had only brought more than a hundred ordinary guards, and a faint smile appeared on his face: "I am still tactful and did not bring the army under his command."
"Your Majesty, you... are you really going to put the Sixth Prince under house arrest?" The eunuch Tongbao beside him said with some concern.
Emperor Yunlai sneered: "If we don't put him under house arrest for a period of time, how can we disintegrate Nantian County and use his business for the country over the years? After the people of Nantian County completely belong to the entire Yunlai Kingdom, I will naturally send him to Hanxue County in the north."
Hanxue County is located in the northernmost part of Yunlai Country. It often snows all year round, making it difficult to grow crops, so it is extremely barren.
Although the face of enthusiasm is amazing, the prosperity cannot even be kept up with one-percent of Nantian County. It often faces attacks from surrounding countries. It can be said that it is the place that all princes and daughters are least willing to go.
Even those ministers in the court were willing to work in Hanxue County.
Emperor Yunlai was really cruel. Not only did he transfer Tang Junming to Hanxue County, but he also had to put him under house arrest for a period of time to dismantle all his forces so that these soldiers would not go to Hanxue County to join Tang Junming.
Not ordinary!
Faced with the temptation of power, Emperor Yun Lai finally tore open the veil of hypocrisy and was ready to take ruthless measures against Tang Junming.
Eunuch Tongbao frowned slightly, but said, "Your Majesty is wise."
In Tongbao's view, facing such a powerful Emperor Yunlai, the Sixth Prince did not have the power to turn the world back. The only thing that the Sixth Prince was too popular in recent years, and the power he controlled was becoming more and more amazing, which attracted the fear of Emperor Yunlai.
In the past, there were also the eldest prince and the eldest prince to restrain him. Now the eldest prince and the eldest prince have been deposed by him. Tang Junming is even praised by the people as the quasi-president, believing that none of the other princes and daughters can compete with him.
Most importantly, during this period, some taboo words were circulated in the capital of the country, and there was even some seemingly conclusive evidence.
Somewhere on the city wall, a group of powerful and wealthy people who had been friends with the eldest prince and the eldest prince were watching all this coldly.
"Duan Tianya is really brave enough to secretly control some county towns in the south of our Yunlai Kingdom. Now, it's okay. Once he enters the palace, he will definitely be under house arrest. It won't take long for the power he managed to disappear."
"Unfortunately, there is no conclusive evidence, and the information we spread does not support it. Otherwise, Duan Tianya would not have thought of dressing up like this."
"Even if there is no conclusive evidence, it doesn't matter. We just need to provide a beginning. For the sake of his own status, Emperor Yunlai will naturally help us deal with it until the end. The father and son will break up sooner or later."
"That's hard to say. Now that Duan Tianya is back so honestly, as long as he obediently hand over his power and wealth, Duan Tianya will always have a rise after Emperor Yunlai."
"If you don't want to see all this happen, it depends on our next ability. The eldest prince and the eldest princess were so miserable by Duan Tianya, we must not let him go easily."
