After making a promise to Jing Hongchen, Ji Lin took Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen and left Heaven Dou City overnight, heading towards Star Luo City. The purpose of Heaven Dou City is very simple, just to pick up Meng Hongchen. Xiao Hongchen, the uncle, can only be said to be a gift. The storage Soul Tool Ring in Meng Hongchen's hands is an unexpected bonus.
With the resources provided by Jing Hongchen, the establishment of Molten Fire Knight Order will be smoother.
Everything is ready, all we need is the east wind, just wait for Xuan Ziwen and this group of Soul Engineer to figure out a way to establish a link with Heavenly Fire Holy Judgment of Ji Lin, then an invincible and invincible invincible knights will dominate the entire Douluo Continent, and there may even be a day when they can fight against the Divine Realm.
After all, Ji Lin has always regarded Divine Realm as an imaginary enemy.
And Molten Fire Knight Order has that potential. As long as Soul Guidance Technology progresses, Molten Fire Knight Armor will become stronger. Sooner or later, it will be able to reproduce the power of the original version. Thinking about a Molten Fire Knight Order composed of gods makes people excited.
Sun Moon Empire, Mingdu, Royal Palace.
Xu Tianran sat quietly on a high-backed chair inlaid with various magnificent gems. Not far in front of him, Ju Zi knelt there on one knee, lowering his head. From the side, you can see that her pretty face is slightly pale.
"Get up. I can't blame you entirely for this." Xu Tianran waved his hand to her.
Ju Zi lowered his head and said, "Your Majesty, this is all my fault. If I had been more vigilant, I wouldn't have suffered such heavy losses. This time I lost many troops and spent so many resources. Please punish me."
Xu Tianran stood up, walked to Ju Zi, helped her up, patted her shoulder gently, and said, "Okay, what happened this time was so sudden. Who would have thought that Soul Beast of Northern Extreme Ice Plains would suddenly riot? According to what you said, one of the Soul Beast who attacked you at that time was Ferocious Beast-level Soul Beast is probably one of the Three Great Heavenly Kings of the Far Norths. It is not easy for you to escape intact. The environment of Far North is so harsh that it is different from other places. It is the battlefield where the ice-type Soul Beast is best. It seems that we made a mistake this time and ignored such an important situation."
"I am aware of my guilt." Ju Zi said with his head lowered.
Xu Tianran comforted, "What's wrong with you? In the past year, you have worked hard for me and the empire, and you have lost a lot of weight. You have made so many contributions, and your prestige in the army has skyrocketed. You are known as the goddess of war in our army. A momentary mistake is nothing. No one is a victorious general." , after we completely occupy the Heavenly Soul Empire and the Dou Ling Empire, I will let you lead the army to destroy the soul beasts in the far north. By then, those rare metals will still be ours. I believe that the Dou Ling Empire will not gain anything, so you don't have to worry about it. "
Ju Zi then raised his head and said with gratitude, "Thank you for your grace."
Xu Tianran looked at her and smiled, then suddenly sighed and said, "The situation on the front line is very stable at present. We occupy a large area of the Heaven Dou Empire land, but due to the constraints of the Star Luo Empire, our troop strength It's a bit stretched, especially in the early battles, various resources are consumed a lot, and some supplies are not available in the rear. For now, let's maintain a stable situation and don't rush to continue the attack. Otherwise, it will create opportunities for the original Douluo Continent Three Kingdoms."
Speaking of the war on the front line, Orange regained his confidence, frowned slightly, and said, "Although our supply line is a bit too long at present, the area that we have occupied in the Tianhun Empire is still stable. You are right, the war in the front needs to be stabilized, and we still have to deal with the trouble caused by the Xingluo Empire in the rear as soon as possible Solve it, in order to solve the problem of extending the supply line if we continue to attack. I suggest that after we have made some savings, we can ask Death God Douluo to attack the Mingdou Mountains again, so as to threaten the Star Luo Empire again before we can continue the attack without any worries."
Xu Tianran smiled and said, "My Empress has now become a famous commander. Those Elder Scholars in the military praise you highly. You can arrange these military tactics. You only need to report to me every time there is a big operation."
"Yes, Your Majesty, please allow Your Majesty. I will set off tomorrow to lead Fire Phoenix Soul Engineer Corps to participate in the domestic task of killing Star Luo Empire soul masters. I will definitely eliminate them in the shortest possible time and give Death God Douluo an opportunity to attack Ming Dou Mountain Range."
Xu Tianran stood up. As Soul Guidance Technology progressed, the prosthetic leg under him had reached the point where it could look real.
He shook his head gently and said, "Ju Zi, it is important to destroy Star Luo Empire's soul master team, but this cannot be done in a short while. Let others do it. I have asked Spirit Hall Master Zhongli Wu to take action personally. With Death God Douluo stationed at the border, that is to set the Sea God target. Those Star Luo Empire troops are just creating some trouble for us, and it is impossible to really accomplish it."
Ju Zi was moved in his heart and said, "Your Majesty, is there anything else you want me to do?"
Xu Tianran nodded slightly and said, "Yes, there is something very important that must be done by you."
Ju Zi quickly stood up, knelt down on one knee beside Xu Tianran, and said, "Please give me your Majesty's orders. As long as Ju Zi can do it, I will break my body to pieces without hesitation."
There was a trace of blame on Xu Tianran's face, and he bent down to help her up, "You, how many times have I told you that you are Empress now, and you don't need such a courtesy. Why don't you listen."
Ju Zi lowered his head and said softly, "In Ju Zi's heart, you are the master at all times, and Ju Zi is just your maid. Ju Zi's life was given by you. As long as you need it, even if Ju Zi dies immediately, Ju Zi will not hesitate."
Although Xu Tianran is a generational hero, he is also a human being. In his early years, his brother secretly assassinated him and almost killed him. It was Ju Zi who managed to get him out after being seriously injured. Over the years, he has been surrounded by countless strong people and confidants, but the one he trusts the most is actually Ju Zi.
Xu Tianran looked moved and said, "I have said it a long time ago, you are my Empress, not a maid, now and in the future. As long as you don't betray me, in the future you will be inferior to one person and superior to tens of thousands of people."
Ju Zi had a look of emotion on her face, but in fact, she was sighing secretly in her heart. Doesn't she understand Xu Tianran's character? If she is not submissive enough in front of Xu Tianran, I'm afraid Xu Tianran will immediately become suspicious. She knows Xu Tianran too well, so she must pretend to be the same as before in order to continue to gain Xu Tianran's trust!
"Your Majesty, what do you want me to do?"
Xu Tianran's face was straightened, and he said in a deep voice, "After you go out this time, the ministers will jointly submit a letter to me to request you."
Ju Zi said, "What is embarrassing Your Majesty so much? Who is embarrassing Your Majesty? I am going to take him..." When she said this, a cold light flashed in her eyes.
Xu Tianran shook his head and said, "If it were something else, who would dare to threaten me? But this matter is indeed difficult to stop everyone from talking about. They asked me to take advantage of the prosperity of the Spring and Autumn Period and establish the crown prince early."
Hearing the words "early establishment of the crown prince", Ju Zi couldn't help being shocked, and subconsciously raised his head to look at Xu Tianran.
A wry smile appeared on Xu Tianran's face, "Only you know my secret, so how can I establish a crown prince? Since I boarded the plane, I have only had you Empress. Apart from that, I have never accepted any concubines. From the outside, it seems that we are deeply in love as husband and wife, but in fact, you know the reason."
Of course Ju Zi knows that, because Xu Tianran was severely injured and inhumane, he would not want many concubines, not to mention that he could not use them at all. Just having too many people talking is very troublesome. This is related to his dominance and the dignity of a man.
Ju Zi didn't say anything. At this time, she didn't know what to say. This was related to Xu Tianran's face.
Xu Tianran said in a deep voice, "Now, we must have a child, preferably a boy. Let's stop everyone's mouth first. Even if it is not a boy, as long as we can have a child born, we are not afraid of what those ministers will say. Therefore, you will stay in the palace for a while. You will still be the commander-in-chief of the three armies, but you will not go to the battlefield for the time being, and give birth to a child for me first."
"This..." Ju Zi looked at Xu Tianran with a dull look. After a moment, he whispered, "Your Majesty, what you mean is that we adopt one?"
Xu Tianran shook his head, snorted coldly, and said, "Those old guys from my father's generation are all staring at me. How can I hide my adoption from them? There are people from them in the Imperial Hospital, and there is no room for failure in this matter. Therefore, we must do something similar, and also Remember? I told you last time that I can find a way to implant a seed in your body and let it take root. Although I am not humane, I can find a relative to get such a seed for you. If you give birth to it, this child will be my future heir."
Ju Zi turned pale with horror, turned around, and fell to his knees again, "No, Your Majesty, no, how can I give birth to someone else's child? I am your Ju Zi, I can only be your Ju Zi, no, I don't agree. Your Majesty, please think twice, give me some time, I will definitely find a way to get the best of both worlds."
Xu Tianran looked at Ju Zi with some surprise and some emotion. This was the first time Ju Zi resisted his order after he rescued Ju Zi, but this resistance greatly satisfied his vanity.
"If possible, no one would want their wife to be pregnant with someone else's child, even if the method of extracting seeds is used, but there is no other way to do this. Only in this way can we stop everyone from talking."
