Chapter 133 Promoted to the Inspector General of Nine Frontiers!
“Jia Cong, you are actually thinking of wiping out the Shui family completely.”

Shui Rong’s face turned pale.

At this point, even a dumb person could see what Jia Cong was planning.

After all, I just escaped.

It went so smoothly.

There was not even any obstruction, which was totally inconsistent with Jia Cong’s meticulous style.

“Your Majesty, shall we return to Liaodong?”

This was spoken by the martial arts innate statue enshrined in Prince Beijing’s Palace.

“Go back! Why don’t you go back!”

“Shenjing City is guarded by the Liu royal family, so many methods are inconvenient to use.”

“But Liaodong…”

“It’s Liaodong from the Shui family. If Jia Cong dares to come, then let him stay forever!”

Shui Rong was filled with hatred.

Two killings, a full twenty years of life!

If it weren’t for the supreme opportunity, Shui Rong would have no hope of reaching the third realm in this life.

There was one more sentence that I hadn’t said in my heart.

Jia Cong’s plan is blatant!

No matter where Shui Rong escapes, he will go straight to Liaodong!

Shui Rong was forced to flee to Liaodong.

Otherwise, once the Shui family’s influence in Liaodong is eliminated, there will be nothing left in Prince Beijing’s Mansion.

……

神京
Royal Palace
“His Majesty!”

“I have something important to report!”

Quickly walked to the outside of Kunning Palace.

In the fifth year of Emperor Shunde’s reign, no selection was held.

In addition to Queen Zhou and Concubine Wu, several other concubines in the harem were married to the prince when he was still a prince.

After a while, the sound of someone putting on clothes was heard from the hall.

Emperor Shunde came out in casual clothes.

“Otomo, what are you so flustered about?”

“Your Majesty, Lord Jia just led his men to kill more than 30 officials in Shenjing and Prince Beijing’s Palace…”

“I have allowed this.”

Emperor Shunde frowned slightly, quite dissatisfied with Xia Shouzhong for waking him up in the middle of the night.

“Prince Beijing Shui Rong escaped ahead of time, and Marquis Jing’an led 800 cavalrymen all the way north to Liaodong.”

But what Xia Shouzhong said next made Emperor Shunde unable to hold back.

“Liaodong? This…”

“How could Jia Cong be so reckless!”

“Why don’t you send someone to bring Jia Cong back?”

In order to resist the foreign invaders, Daqian established nine important border towns and stationed more than one million troops.

They are the elite among the elite.

Among them, Liaodong Town is the top priority.

In this town alone, there are more than 200,000 permanent soldiers and horses.

“Your Majesty, it’s too late. When I received the news from the spies of the Imperial City Bureau, Marquis Jing’an had already left the capital and I don’t know how far he had gone.”

“Marquis Jing’an has Confucian and Taoist magical powers, and he also has a great monster mount. His leg strength…”

“Even if I send out the imperial city officials, I still can’t catch up.”

Xia Shouzhong smiled bitterly.

“Marquis Jing’an deliberately let Shui Rong go. He was targeting the Shui family in Liaodong from the beginning.”

“Not only that, I guess that Marquis Jing’an is not only after Liaodong, but also for Korea…”

“what?”

Upon hearing this, Emperor Shunde could no longer sit still.

Pacing back and forth in front of the temple.

“Otomo, how much of the Liaodong Zhenshui family’s power have been cleared?”

“This… I, together with Dai Quan, the chief steward of the Huangji Palace, the Imperial City Bureau and the Jinyiwei, are conducting a joint investigation, but in order to avoid alerting the enemy.”

“Your Majesty, please forgive me. I have only cleaned less than one-third of it.”

Xia Shouzhong looked embarrassed.

As early as half a year ago, the disguise of Prince Beijing’s Mansion was exposed in public by Jia Cong.

The reason why the royal family has turned a blind eye to this is that they are secretly eliminating the followers of the Liaodong Zhenshui family.

It’s a pity that investigation and arrest take time.

The original plan was to complete it in three years, but now…

“The four great vassal kings of different surnames…”

Emperor Shunde’s expression was solemn. Shui Rong alone was nothing special.

It’s just that the four different princes have always been of the same blood and have always advanced and retreated together.

If the other three families also became suspicious…

“Decree that Prince Beijing Shui Rong has colluded with the White Lotus Sect and is plotting rebellion. He is stripped of his title and ordered to be searched and arrested in all places!”

“The Prince of Dongping, the Prince of Nan’an, and the Prince of Xining are temporarily under house arrest. They are not allowed to leave the palace until Shui Rong is brought to justice!”

“Otomo, you should personally lead the people to Liaodong.”

“Jia Cong, Marquis of Jing’an, is promoted to the position of Inspector General of Nine Provinces and Deputy Commander-in-Chief of Liaodong Town. He will inspect the nine frontiers on my behalf.”

“If there is an emergency, you can do whatever you want!”

“Order the Ziwei Division to monitor Jia Cong’s movements at all times.”

“No matter what, nothing can happen to Jia Cong!”

Both the retired emperor and Emperor Shunde himself had already reached a consensus on their attitude towards Jia Cong.

Try every possible means to win over.

If they could be won over, Daqian could at least extend its national prosperity by a thousand years.

It would be easy to restore the power of the Han and Tang dynasties.

The Inspector General of Nine Provinces, also known as the Commander-in-Chief of Nine Provinces!
First-rank military officer rank!

This is the official position that Wang Ziteng was promoted to in the original novel.

It was not a permanent position, but every few years, the emperor would appoint a senior general of the fifteen military governor’s office.

He was given this position and was ordered to inspect the defense of the nine borders.

It seems that he has a position but no power, but if we add the two terms “Deputy General of Liaodong Town” and “act at one’s own discretion”.

That’s very different.

“The slave obeys the order!”

Xia Shouzhong also knew the seriousness of the matter and accepted the order.

He left the palace without stopping and headed for Liaodong.

……

Liaodong Town

From Phoenix City in the east to Shanhaiguan in the west!
Liaoyang was the headquarters of Liaodong and the garrison of the general and inspectors.

Guangning was a branch of the Commandery Commander-in-Chief and the residence of the governor and deputy general.

It has two important defensive towns under its jurisdiction.

The Military Commandery was composed of five garrisons: east, west, south, north and center.

There were twenty guards under each route.

There are nine acropolises and more than one hundred fortresses in total!
The entire Liaodong area is mostly military settlements.

Daqian has more than 200,000 elite troops stationed here all year round.

It is the most important town among the nine borders.

We must not only guard against the Tatars and the Oirat.

In recent years, the Jianzhou Jurchens, who had previously submitted to Daqian, have also been restless and are showing signs of rising.

Liaoyang General’s Mansion

“My Lord, why are you here so suddenly?”

Yin Zhiyuan, the general of Liaodong Town, saw Shui Rong and his group who were dressed in disguise.

He hurriedly stood up to greet him.

Yin Zhiyuan was originally born into a commoner family in Liaodong and had an extraordinary talent in martial arts.

He began to emerge when he followed the army in the Northern Expedition in the last years of Emperor Taizong’s reign.

During the Kaiyuan period, he broke through the realm of innateness, made many military achievements, and mastered the art of war.

Emperor Kaiyuan saw that his family background was clean, so he appointed him as the general of Liaodong.

He is a high-ranking official with great power.

But no one knows that Yin Zhiyuan is from the Beijing Palace.

Resources used for daily practice and achievements on the battlefield.

Most of them were planned by the old Prince Beijing behind the scenes.

Loyal to Prince Beijing’s Palace.

“Uncle Yin!” Shui Rong didn’t feel slightly relieved until he entered the general’s mansion.

“The Liu royal family went back on their word and allowed Jia Cong to attack Prince Beijing’s mansion.”

“Now, everyone in the palace has been killed, except for me and a few priests.”

“Jia Cong and his pursuers are right behind us. It won’t be long before they reach the outskirts of Liaodong City.”

“What? That makes no sense!”

“The Shui family and the Jia family are both the founding families, and have been connected for hundreds of years!”

“If it weren’t for the care of Prince Beijing’s Mansion over the years, the Jia family wouldn’t have survived until now.”

“You actually repay kindness with enmity!”

Upon hearing this, Yin Zhiyuan’s face was immediately filled with anger.
