Chapter 270: Prince Guangling dies tragically, Xu Fengnian has difficulty traveling
After Liyang Emperor Zhao Dun ordered the execution of Zhang Julu, he gained the re-loyalty of the noble families throughout the world. The noble families supported the Liyang Dynasty with money, food, population, etc., and helped it to reorganize an army of more than 200,000.
After receiving the news, Xu Chunlin couldn't help but sneer: "It seems that our Zhao family emperor still has some skills, but Zhang Julu has made many achievements in his life. The temporary stability gained by executing him makes the poor children in the world feel chilled!"
"Which is more important, winning the world or losing the people's hearts or peace?"
Jia Xu held up his fan and chuckled, "Of course, the people's hearts are the most important. Those noble families are fence-sitters. However, since the emperor has decided to purge the noble families of the world and has already stood on the opposite side, there is naturally no need for them to join him."
"But if we do this, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to gain the reputation of clearing out the evil officials," Jia Xu asked.
Xu Chunlin shook his head: "It doesn't matter. Even if Zhang Julu is dead, we still have Gu Jiantang. Even if Li Yang is cruel enough to kill Gu Jiantang, they can still replace him with someone else. It's just a matter of a name."
"I think everyone in the world can see Li Yang's coldness more clearly!"
"Since the Liyang Dynasty has discarded the people's hearts, I will accept it without hesitation. Pass the order down. It's time to take the next step!"
Jia Xu bowed and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. I'll do it right away!"
"Ok!"
Xu Chunlin nodded, looked at the sand table map covering the world in the military tent, and then slowly determined the next target of the Beiliang Iron Cavalry.
With the Xuanyuan family falling under the command of Xu Chunlin, Jianzhou was easily conquered. The Guangling King Zhao Yi and his son Zhao Piao were in a panic and were accidentally taken away by the Yellow Turbans. Their grease was burned by the extremely fine flames and then cut off bit by bit, burned and scraped off layer by layer, to make the things used to light the lamp and boil oil.
After all the fat on his body has been scraped off and turned into oil and water, his soul will be sealed into the skeleton and thrown into the oil pot to be refined. There, his soul will turn around for thousands of times and cannot be freed.
It is impossible to say that Xu Chunlin was not involved. After all, this fat guy is really annoying to look at.
Zhao Yi, Prince of Guangling, was one of the six vassal kings of Liyang, guarding Guangling Road, the hometown of the former most powerful nation, the Great Chu.
The princes of Li Yang were mostly handsome men, except Zhao Yi, who was ugly and dark in appearance, and weighed more than 300 pounds in obesity. He and Chu Lushan of Beiliang were known as the two fat men in the north and south.
However, Zhao Yi was a lustful man. During the Spring and Autumn Period, Zhao Yi abducted countless beauties from various countries, including two queens of fallen countries and countless princesses and concubines.
After becoming King of Guangling, Zhao Yi became the most powerful local tyrant in the southeast of the Liyang Dynasty.
Guangling Road was originally a wealthy place, and Zhao Yi had collected many beauties. He even went beyond the rules and had one official and six concubines, all of whom were stunningly beautiful.
However, because Zhao Yi was the emperor's only younger brother, loyal and most trusted, his position was unshakable for a long time.
The number and quality of beauties collected by Zhao Yi are unmatched in the world of snow. This makes Xu Chunlin, the world's number one playboy, jealous. He deserves to die!
And there is Zhao Piao, who is the eldest son of Prince Guangling Zhao Yi. He is also a fat man weighing more than 300 pounds, but is deeply loved by Zhao Yi.
Similarly, Zhao Piao was also a lustful person, and he was even worse than his teacher.
Under Zhao Pi, there was a housekeeper who was responsible for commenting on the appearance of the women in the surrounding families. Any woman who was commented on would either be robbed or paid a sky-high price.
Even Zhao Piao's childhood friend, who had grown up with him, had to pay 70,000 or 80,000 taels of silver to escape the disaster because he had a beautiful wife.
Whenever there was a big gathering on Guangling Road, Zhao Piao would deploy many scouts to look for pretty ladies. Whenever the scouts found a pretty woman, they would inform Zhao Piao, who would then lead his slaves to rob her openly on the street.
As long as they were in Guangling Road, the women that Zhao Piao took a fancy to basically could not escape. In those days, there was a pair of immortal chivalrous lovers who traveled to Guangling. The fairy-like chivalrous woman caught Zhao Piao's eye. Relying on her skills, she made Zhao Piao suffer a little. He immediately returned home with 300 cavalrymen and a dozen guest officials to capture the two.
The county magistrate's daughter-in-law was also favored by Zhao Yi, and she also failed to escape. The county magistrate went to the Guangling Prince's Mansion, but Zhao Yi beat him to death with the jade ruyi, and also killed a censor who was going to make a remonstrance. Even when the Liyang Emperor knew about it, he only said something in a light tone.
After the Western Chu state was restored and then destroyed in Guangling, the officials of the Western Chu state fawned on the new nobles in Guangling Road.
Zhao Piao was even more unscrupulous. He collected three people from each of the top ten wealthy families, and one or two people from each of the more than 40 noble families after that, regardless of whether they were young women or married women.
In comparison, Xu Chunlin felt that he was a good man. When the Yellow Turban Army broke through the Guangling Palace, they seized thousands of beauties and maids of all kinds. Even the Yellow Turban Army's leader didn't know what to do with these beauties.
Finally, they had no choice but to report it to Zhonghuang Taiyi Taoist Lord. After seeing it, Zhonghuang Taiyi Taoist Lord couldn't help but swear and kept saying: What a waste of resources!
Such a beautiful lady was ruined by these two wild boar-like father and son.
Zhonghuang Taiyi Taoist Lord told Xu Chunlin about this, and Xu Chunlin, as a person who cherished flowers, ordered Zhonghuang Taiyi Taoist Lord to torture him.
This also resulted in the death of many princes of the Liyang Dynasty at the hands of the Yellow Turban Army, one more miserable than the other. Prince Jing'an Zhao Heng was made into meat for fortune, and Prince Guangling Zhao Yi was burned as a sky lantern after being tortured.

After Jianzhou was conquered, the next target would be Huzhou, Wuzhou, or Haozhou.
In this way, the connection between the Liyang Dynasty and the south can be completely severed, and the southern land will be like a meal on Xu Chunlin's plate, allowing him to plunder at will.
However, the Wu Emperor City in the East China Sea is located at the easternmost junction of the Wu and Yue states. Sooner or later, Xu Chunlin will have to fight with Wang Xianzhi and seize the White Emperor essence from him.
Xu Chunlin looked down and planted the flag representing Beiliang in the two states of Hu and Wu. His palm fell and a feeling of encompassing the four seas rose up.
"It's almost time, it's almost time, the day when the world changes its flag is not far away!"

Since Xu Fengnian left Jianzhou, he has encountered assassination attempts one after another. His previous journey was very smooth due to Xu Chunlin's dominance over the world, but after leaving Jianzhou, he could hardly move forward.
As a last resort, Lao Huang and Li Chungang took turns in two shifts and dared not close their eyes for a moment.
"Hey, Xu boy, how many people do you think want to kill you right now?" Li Chungang asked jokingly.
Xu Fengnian shook his head, his face bitter: "How should I know? With Chunlin's claim of clearing the court of evil officials, I'm afraid the people in Tai'an City have gone crazy."
"I am now a rare commodity. I wonder how many people are hiding in the dark and want to kidnap me and then clamp down on Beiliang!"
Li Chungang also sighed: "According to my guess, the Five Elements Talisman General Hongjia that Jian Jiuhuang and I defeated before was probably created by Tai'an City."
Li Chungang's eyes flashed with memories: "Ye Hongting, one of the four great masters back then, was born in the Southern Border Dragon Palace. He had a physique of the Great Vajra Realm and a comprehension of the Celestial Realm. He wore the world's number one indestructible armor, and his whole body was covered in that bright red armor.
"In this way, Ye Hongting's Qi is constantly flowing, and he can breathe in and out at will, while others need to breathe in and out constantly. If they fight with him, they will be exhausted to death. This way of fighting is too disgusting."
"After Li Yang pacified the world, Ye Hongting entered the palace to assassinate the previous emperor of Li Yang, and faced the human-cat Han Diao Si. Han Diao Si was in a special Great Finger Profound Realm. His Finger Profound Skill was to pull out the silk and peel off the cocoon, which could tear the diamond body apart with bare hands. Moreover, the three thousand red silks could cut off the perception of the master of the Celestial Realm and the world, making him the nemesis of Fu Jiang Hongjia."
"In the end, Ye Hongting was stripped of his armor and skin by Han Diaosi's bare hands, and his body and armor were hung on a royal flag."
"Now it seems that the Five Elements Talisman General Red Armor has been used again by the devil Han Shengxuan, and it has been divided into five sets!"
"Ahem, what Li Jianshen said is correct!"
