Chapter 187 Homecoming
The emperor’s grace is great!

Even with Qi Pinghai's years of shrewdness and determination, he could not bear it for a moment.

After a moment, Qi Pinghai bowed to Lu Changjing and said, "I am very terrified. I beg Your Majesty to revoke your order."

"You deserve this." Lu Changjing patted his shoulder and helped him up. "You have guarded the southeastern border for nearly two hundred years. Even under the attack of the peace faction, you still curbed the invasion of the Ying pirates. How many people in the entire Daning Dynasty have such achievements?"

"Don't worry about the various policies of the peace faction in the past. Although we in the Daning Dynasty have some spineless people, most people are still strong."

After pacifying Qi Pinghai and learning about the current battle situation, Lu Changjing pulled out three women from the Beauty Cannibal Picture and threw them in front of Qi Pinghai. He also handed the Beauty Cannibal Picture to him and said, "This is the monster captured by my senior brother. You should know him. He has done a lot of bad things in several prefectures in the East China Sea over the past hundred years."

"From now on, its life and death will be controlled by you. It will also cooperate with you to deal with the many natives in the East China Sea. If there is anything you don't understand, you can ask it."

"This...is this a family of three?" Looking at the weird thing lying on the ground, Qi Pinghai was dumbfounded and could hardly believe his eyes.

As an old-fashioned lord who has guarded the southeastern border for more than a hundred years, how could he not know the famous woman of three.

Not only do they know them, but they also hate them to the core. Over the years, many of Ping Haijun's relatives and friends were killed by these three women, or by the demons and monsters they controlled.

He originally thought that it would be difficult to take revenge in this lifetime, but he did not expect that this monster would be thrown in front of him by the Emperor in such a way.

Qi Pinghai was stunned for a long time before he reacted. With red eyes, he knelt down towards Lu Changjing and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for taking action to avenge the deaths of our people in Daning."

Compared to his own wealth and glory, Lu Changjing's act of capturing three women alive moved him more, and also made Qi Pinghai, who originally had some grudges, calm down a lot.

The century-long national policy of peace talks has hurt not only Qi Pinghai, but also countless ordinary people in the southeastern border. It is impossible for Lu Changjing to heal the damage overnight.

But first, Lu Changjing sent troops to the East China Sea despite the pressure from the peace faction, and then he came personally to capture the three women alive to avenge them... As the emperor, and an emperor who has just ascended the throne for a few years, the previous peace policy was not formulated by Lu Changjing. What else can Qi Pinghai say?

We can't blame the dead emperor. We can only blame those old bastards who were in the peace talks for going too far and having no sense of shame at all.

This move basically allowed Lu Changjing to subdue Qi Pinghai. When the reward from the King of Southeast comes down later, Qi Pinghai should be able to return to him.

This old lord who has maintained the stability of the southeastern border for a hundred years deserves Lu Changjing's treatment as a national hero. The future court will also need such a loyal minister.

Rong Zongshun, Qi Pinghai, Yue Yunfei, Xiao Shenfeng, Lin Dong... they were all precious treasures left to him by the Daning royal family. They had risen to their feet step by step relying on their own abilities and strengths, despite the pressure from the peace faction. They were far more outstanding than the so-called kings and princes of the previous dynasty.

After handing the three women over to Qi Pinghai for disposal, Qi Pinghai reported another matter to him, that is, recently a number of envoys from the Jade Eagle Dynasty came to threaten the Pinghai Army, demanding that they withdraw from the territory of the Sakura Clan, and also saying that the Sakura Clan was their subordinate tribe.

After careful investigation, Qi Pinghai realized that the Jade Eagle Dynasty had also set its sights on the trade rights in the East China Sea. They had already seized most of the trade rights in the western and northern parts of the East China Sea, and even a part of the trade rights in the southern part. Now, only the trade rights in the western part of the East China Sea were left uncontrolled.

Originally, the Jade Eagle Dynasty wanted to control the Sakura Clan in order to gain control of the trade rights in the western part of the East China Sea, and at the same time turn the Sakura Clan into its vassal.

But they didn't expect that the Daning Dynasty would suddenly take action, sweep across the territory of the Ying Clan, and also seize the trade rights in the western part of the East China Sea. Not only that, the Yuying Dynasty also secretly controlled many powerful and wealthy people in the Universal Dynasty and secretly influenced the government of the Universal Dynasty. It can be said that they are ambitious.

The Yuying Dynasty was a dynasty located in the northeast of the Daning Dynasty. Its territory covered an area of ​​more than 100 million square kilometers, which was not much inferior to that of the Daning Dynasty.

There are about thirty grand masters and more than a thousand grand masters in the country, and the overall strength is even higher than that of the Daning Dynasty.

However, the Yuying Dynasty is not like the Daning Dynasty. Because it was a divine dynasty in the past, it was feared and targeted by many forces. It had a hard time developing and has been on a downward trend over the years.

The Jade Eagle Dynasty was just the opposite. As a dynasty that had just risen in the past ten thousand years, it developed at an astonishing speed. With no enemies around it, it quickly grew stronger.

It was also extremely aggressive and had a very developed business, which was simply incomparable to the previous Da Ning Dynasty.

In addition, for nearly a hundred years, the Daning Dynasty has pursued a policy of peace and negotiation, and was regarded as a coward by many forces. That is why the Yuying Dynasty dared to look down on the Daning Dynasty and even sent envoys directly to ask Qi Pinghai to withdraw his troops and give up the western part of the East China Sea.

After learning about this, Lu Changjing didn't care. As long as there were no gods or demons in charge, the Jade Eagle Dynasty was nothing but a piece of shit to him.

When there is time later, we can enslave the rulers of the Jade Eagle Dynasty, plunder the wealth of the Jade Eagle Dynasty, and make them work for us.

However, the Daning Dynasty has not yet dealt with the surrounding forces, and does not have enough time and energy to deal with the Yuying Dynasty. It is better to ignore it for the time being.

If they really dare to send people to cause trouble later, don't blame Lu Changjing for being ruthless.

"Don't worry about the Jade Eagle Dynasty. Just do what you need to do."

"If they send experts to cause trouble, they will be killed without mercy. If you can't deal with them, you can report to the court and I will send people to deal with them."

"It's just a dynasty tens of thousands of miles away, but they dare to interfere in the affairs of our Daning. It's ridiculous."

……

Hearing Lu Changjing say this, Qi Pinghai breathed a sigh of relief: "Your Majesty is wise, I will remember this."

The emperor is really different, or it can be said that the new emperor is really different from the previous emperor. Compared with the previous emperor's timidity, the new emperor is decisive and ruthless.

Even the Yuying Dynasty, which is far more powerful than the Daning Dynasty, dares to be so tough, let alone other forces. From now on, we don’t have to follow the emperor and be cowards.

Rather than living on his knees, Qi Pinghai prefers to stand and fight the enemy to the death. Even if he dies in the end, he will have no regrets.

This action made Qi Pinghai respect Lu Changjing even more, and at the same time, more loyal to him as the emperor.
