Stand-in eunuch: I pamper the harem for the emperor

Of course, the one who wants to make great achievements the most is undoubtedly the fifth legion that Chen Xiang has just formed. They are now stationed in Hengyang City, training day and night, ready to go south and attack the Sui Empire at any time.

"This expedition to the Western Regions successfully completed the set task and incorporated the entire Western Regions into the territory of the Chinese Empire. All departments must immediately come up with plans to rule the Western Regions, especially the Ministry of Personnel, which must dispatch officials as soon as possible..."

"The Anxi Protectorate that I have established now is only a temporary management organization. Once the empire's Ministry of Civil Affairs and Ministry of Punishment, as well as officials at all levels are in place, this temporary transitional organization will be abolished."

Lu Hao glanced around and said loudly.

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, we have already made preparations. Officials from the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Justice will leave for the Western Regions soon..."

Tantai Mingyue responded quickly.

"As for attacking the Sui Empire, even if they don't detain Concubine Xian, I will destroy them. Now is the opportunity!"

Lu Hao's eyes flashed with a cunning light.

Only then did all the cabinet ministers know why he was so angry. It was obvious that he had found an excuse to invade the Sui Kingdom.

"Your Majesty, did we all think you were angry?"

Xuanyuan Ding Yuan Le laughed loudly.

"Of course I am angry. The Sui Empire dared to detain my Concubine Xian. How can I not be angry?"

Lu Hao said seriously.

Everyone couldn't help but smile.

Since the emperor wants to attack the Sui Empire, now the entire empire machine is running, all in order to destroy the Sui Empire.

Lu Hao's determination to unify the continent has not changed. Of course, on the other hand, the first statue of the official department was also erected in the square in front of the palace in Yandi City.

After these statues were built, Lu Hao had to inject his soul into them in order to absorb the power of faith from ordinary people.

Therefore, Du Ze, the Minister of Rites, prepared to hold an unveiling ceremony for Lu Hao, firstly to praise his merits, and secondly to please Lu Hao.

Many civilians gathered in the square outside the palace.

Lu Hao also climbed up the tower and looked at the huge statue standing opposite from a distance. Although it was now covered by a layer of colorful cloth, the general outline could still be seen.

"Subjects of the empire, I am the Yongtai Emperor of the Chinese Empire!"

Lu Hao's voice was filled with internal energy and soon spread throughout Yandi City.

"My expedition to the Western Regions has completely wiped out all the countries in the Western Regions, and merged their territories into the Chinese Empire!"

Lu Hao continued.

"The Emperor is mighty! The Emperor is mighty..."

All the people in Yandi City shouted loudly.

"Today, my statue is completed. On this beautiful day, I would like to thank the imperial cabinet, the imperial subjects, and your support and love for me..."

Lu Hao's voice echoed throughout the sky.

"Long live the emperor, long live!"

Everyone in the square fell to their knees and shouted in unison.

At this time, the divine soul injected into Lu Hao's statue began to absorb the power of faith from these common people.

The power of faith absorbed by these statues is continuously injected into Lu Hao's body through this soul connection, strengthening his soul sea.

Lu Hao waved his hand, and the colorful cloth covering the statue in the distance flew out, revealing the statue below.

This 17-meter-tall stone statue is almost exactly the same as Lu Hao. It holds a golden holy sword in its hand and looks calm and intimidating.

"The Emperor is mighty! Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!"

All the subjects of Yandi City collectively knelt down to worship the statue, and the sound shook the sky.

At the same time, huge statues were unveiled in the other four squares of Yandi City and displayed in front of all the subjects.

These subjects knelt on the ground humbly and shouted at the top of their lungs "Long live the Emperor!"

The huge and continuous power of faith once again entered Lu Hao's soul sea through the statue.

Pop!

Lu Hao discovered that his soul sea had undergone a transformation.

Waves of powerful soul tides swept across all directions, contracted suddenly, and formed a square crystal above the soul sea.

"This...this is the true crystallization of the soul!"

Lu Hao was ecstatic.Suddenly, the power of his soul expanded, sweeping in all directions at an unprecedented speed.

Lu Hao found that his soul perception had broken through again, covering thousands of kilometers, reaching a terrifying height.

At this moment, he completely entered the legendary realm of divine movement.

In other words, he can now leave his body and travel thousands of kilometers or even tens of thousands of kilometers in an instant.

Such a powerful soul power made Lu Hao look at the whole world differently.

His soul instantly flew to the distant Dongdu City, trying to find Nangong Ruoxue.

At this time, somewhere in the Sui Empire's palace, Nangong Ruoxue was being held in a courtyard, with many experts monitoring her around.

"You're riding a horse! Emperor Sui Yang dared to put my wife under house arrest, so don't blame labor and management for being ruthless!"

Lu Hao was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

"Ruoxue, don't be afraid now! I will come to save you!"

Lu Hao said to Nangong Ruoxue through soul transmission.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty...is that you?"

Nangong Ruoxue thought she was hallucinating.

"Yes, I saw you, don't be afraid! They don't dare to do anything to you?"

Lu Hao comforted.

"I'm not afraid, it's just that the emperor said he would keep our children in Dongdu City as hostages!"

Nangong Ruoxue touched her slightly bulging belly and said with a grimace.

"Don't worry, I will come to save you and your child."

Lu Hao comforted him again.

"Your Majesty, I miss you!"

Nangong Ruoxue said quietly.

"I miss you too, okay, be good!"

Lu Hao is as tender as water.

At this moment, the common people in Yandi City were still kneeling down to worship the statue, and the power of faith continued to enter his body.

The newly formed soul crystal actually began to rotate slowly and continued to grow in size.

It wasn't until everyone stood up that the red threads transformed by the power of faith gradually dispersed.

Three days later, the three major legions of the empire had returned to Yandi City.

This time, they did not enter the city, but went directly to replenish ammunition, and then followed Lu Hao's wishes and sent their troops directly south to Liuyang City.

Liuyang City in the south.

Lu Hao slowly landed with several masters and saw the fifth legion that the empire had just formed.

"Meet the emperor!"

Chen Xiang and his generals knelt on one knee to greet Lu Hao.

"Free gift!"

Lu Hao walked slowly towards the city lord's mansion.

Chen Xiang and others immediately followed.

"The Sui Empire has detained my concubine Xian. I came here this time to attack the Sui Empire and let them know that my empress can be detained at will?"

Lu Hao sat on the Taishi chair and said loudly.

"Your Majesty, the last general is requesting a battle on behalf of the fifth legion!"

Chen Xiang quickly knelt down and volunteered.

"Chen Xiang, it's not that I don't believe in your ability, but I'm worried that you haven't trained these soldiers well!"

Lu Hao said with a grimace. (End of chapter)
