The tyrant empress is my wife, I am invincible and have been hiding

Meizhuang, the meeting hall.

Mei Jing sat on the main seat with a gloomy face, anger filling his eyes.

There were two people sitting on each side.

The first person on the left, with white hair and a powerful aura, is Mei Chao, the eldest elder of the Mei family. Next to him sits a middle-aged woman with a slender figure and a somewhat gentle appearance. She is Mei Hong, the second elder of the Mei family. On the right sits a middle-aged man with a pointed chin and a somewhat shabby face, which looks a bit weird. He is the third elder, Mei Hai.

Right next to Mei Hai, sat a middle-aged man in a grey robe. He had a melancholy look on his face, but a calm expression. He was Mei Wufeng, the fourth elder of the Mei family.

Just behind where the four elders of the Mei family were sitting, there were quite a few figures standing. They were all core members of the Mei family.

There are also many young talents standing there, they are the future of the Mei family.

"The reason why I have called all the elders together today is mainly because there are two things that need to be discussed. The first thing, I believe you have heard, is that some time ago, Elder Mei Fang went to the Song Dynasty but was beheaded. The second thing is that the old man Wang Beiwang, the Lord of Nanyuan, brought 10,000 remnants and wastes from Nanyuan to the north, apparently going to Weicheng."

When Mei Jing saw that everyone was present, he did not pause, but directly stated the main reason for gathering everyone.

"First of all, our Mei family is one of the thousand-year-old families in the Jiuzhou Continent. The Great Song Dynasty dared to kill our Mei family members. This is simply a provocation to the honor of the thousand-year-old family. I want to issue a conquest order against the Great Song Dynasty. What do you think?"

There was a cold murderous intent in the depths of Mei Jing's eyes. As the patriarch of the Mei family, he had never seen a core strongman being killed.

He regarded Mei Fang's death as a great humiliation.

Hua Hua Hua...

Many people couldn't help but be surprised when they heard Mei Jing mention the expedition order.

There are eight thousand-year-old families in the Kyushu continent. At the beginning, there was a crazy melee with countless casualties. Later, the eight families sat down and made an agreement, that is, the thousand-year-old families must not interfere in the imperial struggles without reason, and they must not attack ordinary people. If anyone violates this rule, the other seven thousand-year-old families will attack him together.

Of course, the meaning of this agreement is that if a Millennium Family is provoked, an order of conquest can be issued and the reasons can be made public. As long as the permission of five or more Millennium Family is obtained, the action can be taken.

As the chief elder of the Mei family, Mei Chao did not care about the Song Dynasty. He said slowly, "The death of Elder Mei Fang really needs someone to pay with blood in order to establish the dignity of our Mei family. Otherwise, won't the thousand-year-old family become a soft persimmon that anyone can manipulate?"

"I agree."

Mei Hong is the only woman among the four elders, and she also expressed her opinion.

"I have heard that the Great Song Dynasty has been in its heyday recently. Not only has it come back to life, but it has also been able to defeat the three major dynasties at the same time. It is said that the dynasty's luck is also very good. If our Mei family takes action and destroys the Great Song Dynasty, we can seize their dynasty's luck. Perhaps our Mei family can go one step further and rank among the top three of the eight great families!"

Mei Hai's pointed face was flashing with ferocity and cold murderous intent, and he threatened to destroy the Song Dynasty.

The only exception was the fourth elder, Mei Wufeng, a middle-aged man in a gray robe. He frowned slightly and did not follow the third elder in expressing his opinion.

"Fourth Elder, what do you think?"

When Mei Jing saw that Mei Wufeng did not express his opinion, a barely perceptible cold light flashed in the depths of his eyes.

"My Lord, I think that since we are a thousand-year-old family, it is not appropriate for us to interfere in the struggles between dynasties. If we issue a conquest order against the Song Dynasty, we may be able to destroy it, but it may cause the Jiuzhou Continent to fall into the chaos and struggles of two thousand years ago. At that time, the people of the Jiuzhou Continent will once again fall into dire straits."

"Besides, Elder Mei Fang is fine, why would he go to Jinling City? Our Mei family has accumulated wealth for thousands of years, and our ancestors have even entered the legendary realm of land immortals. If we start disputes without reason and bully the weak, we are afraid that it will involve cause and effect, and we are afraid that the gains will outweigh the losses!"

Mei Wufeng's words sounded sonorous and powerful.

The expressions of the several old men standing behind him changed slightly.

They also sighed helplessly in their hearts.

This is the third time that Mei Wufeng has opposed Mei Jing in these years.

The first time was when Mei Jing was the head of the family, and the second time was more than 20 years ago, when he secretly killed the imperial concubine Wang Lianyan.

Hearing Mei Wufeng's words, Mei Jing's face turned a little ugly, and he asked in a deep voice: "Fourth Elder, what do you mean, Elder Mei Fang was killed in vain, and our Mei family did nothing?"

"Master, may I ask why Elder Mei Fang went to Jinling City?" Mei Wufeng was a little angry when Mei Jing asked him this.

The Mei family is clearly a thousand-year-old family, but ever since Mei Jing took over as the head of the family, he has repeatedly intervened in the struggles of the dynasty.

For her own selfish desires, she forced Murong Boheng to marry her own sister to him, making him the empress of the Great Xia Dynasty.

It is undeniable that Mei Jing and others have gained great benefits. The imperial luck provided by the Great Xia Dynasty alone has enabled Mei Jing's cultivation to improve rapidly.

However, doing so would mean completely tying the Mei family to Murong Boheng. The problem was that Murong Boheng was no pushover either, and he was bent on unifying the Nine Provinces.

Mei Jing and others originally wanted to control Murong Boheng, but they didn't expect that they were now being checked and balanced by Murong Boheng, and became a tool for Murong Boheng to make the Great Xia Dynasty powerful.

"Mei Wufeng, as the patriarch of the Mei family, everything I do is for the Mei family. I sacrificed my son to marry Murong Boheng so that I could share the imperial fortune of the Great Xia Dynasty. As the fourth elder, haven't you gained any benefits over the years? How can your cultivation level improve so quickly?"

"You are right. I was the one who sent Elder Mei Fang to Jinling City. So what?"

Mei Jing's eyes flashed with coldness, and a powerful aura burst out from his body.

His cultivation had actually broken through to the seventh-grade Grandmaster level.

The entire hall was filled with shock.

Even the Great Elder Mei Chao's eyes were filled with surprise.

The dynasty's fortune is indeed attractive.

Mei Keqiu stood there, arrogant and smug.

"Only one of the four elders opposed the issuance of a conquest order against the Song Dynasty. According to the principle of minority obeying majority, the opposition is invalid."

Mei Jing restrained his aura and directly rejected Mei Wufeng's objection.

Mei Wufeng sat there but said nothing more.

"Now let's discuss the second matter. Since Wang Beiwang, this old man, wants to die, I think we can help him and send him to see his daughter."

"I don't know who would be willing to get rid of him."

Mei Jing simply didn't bother to discuss it and asked everyone directly.

"Master, I heard that Wang Beiwang's iron knife is very powerful. I would like to see it for myself. Why don't I take the lead?"

The third elder, Mei Hai, had a ferocious look on his face and asked for orders directly.

"Well! Wang Beiwang is quite powerful. As the Lord of Nanyuan, he can use the luck of the Great Xia Dynasty. His own cultivation is also not weak. Don't underestimate him. Bring a few more people with you and make sure to kill him before he reaches Weicheng."

"If he arrives in Weicheng, with his contributions to the Great Xia Dynasty, once he mobilizes the dynasty's fortune, I'm afraid it will be difficult for even me to deal with him."

Mei Jing nodded to Mei Hai, murderous intent deep in his eyes.

"Humph! Since you guys are looking for death, I, Mei Wufeng, will not accompany you any more. Goodbye!"

Mei Wufeng didn't expect that Mei Jing still wanted to attack Wang Beiwang. There was a gleam in the depths of his eyes, spiritual power flowed throughout his body, and he shouted loudly, then quickly left the hall.

"Stop him!"

In the depths of Mei Jing's eyes, there was a gleam of joy when he saw that Mei Wufeng actually wanted to leave the Mei family. He had long wanted to get rid of Mei Wufeng, and with a loud shout, he wanted to attack Mei Wufeng.

However, Mei Wufeng left so suddenly that even he was caught off guard. When he chased him outside the meeting hall, Mei Wufeng was nowhere to be seen.

"Master, do you want to chase?"

An old man behind him asked.

"No need. Let's deal with the Song Dynasty and Wang Beiwang first, and then deal with this traitor." Mei Jing has directly accused Mei Wufeng of treason.

……

Xijiang Mountains.

After Ye Feng and his party left Taizhen Mountain, they headed towards the three northern counties, with the carriage driving along the edge of the cliff.

The towering mountains are rolling and lush, with steep cliffs everywhere, which are extremely majestic.

The most important thing is that below the cliff is a bottomless abyss, and below you can see a bottomless river with fast-flowing water.

This is the reason why the three northern counties suffer from floods all year round.

The three counties are surrounded by mountains. Once the rainy season comes, the river water in these canyons will rise sharply, and then will wash towards the three relatively low-lying northern counties.

If the Xijiang Weir built by Li Bing and his son could really eliminate the flood, places like the three northern counties would be natural granaries. It would only take more than 10,000 soldiers to guard the dangerous places along the way. Even a great master would not dare to break in easily.

With such a narrow road and steep cliffs, if one falls down by mistake, even a grandmaster would die.

It's really too dangerous.

"Above, there is a high peak with six dragons circling the sun; below, there is a winding river with waves crashing against it. Even the yellow crane cannot fly over it; monkeys want to cross it but are worried about climbing for support. The green mud is winding, winding around the rocks and mountains with nine turns in a hundred steps. I touch the stars and the wells, and breathe heavily on my back; I put my hand on my chest and sit and sigh."

Looking at the steep cliff, Ye Feng couldn't help but recall these lines of poetry. Even the sword immortal Li Bai couldn't help but sigh.

“Mysterious!”

Xiao Liuer was surprised when she heard the poem Ye Feng recited.

He followed the carriage all the way and walked along the mountain stream road. Even he did not dare to be careless, for fear that if he was not careful, he would fall into the mountain stream below and it would be difficult for him to survive.

Following the carriage of Ye Feng and others, they arrived at the top of Xijiang Mountain, and saw a plank road built there, with hundreds of soldiers guarding there.

"Who is coming?"

asked a soldier.

"I am the ruler of the state, and I am here to inspect."

Ye Feng, holding the Emperor's Sword, came to the front of the plank road.

"Zhen Guojun?"

When the soldiers stationed on the plank road heard the three words "Zhen Guo Jun", their eyes were filled with horror.

They were the garrisons of the three northern counties.

Ever since Zhenguo Jun came to the Song Dynasty, they finally no longer have to endure hunger.

even.

Zhenguojun also sent Li Bing and his son to help the county governor Rong Sibo control the flood.

At first they were skeptical.

As Li Bing and his son continued to dig ditches, the ditches in the three northern counties were connected, greatly alleviating the flood problem.

Now, the successful construction of Xijiang Weir is not far away.

"Are you really the King of Zhenguo?"

Several soldiers looked at Ye Feng.

"This is the Emperor's Sword, guaranteed to be genuine."

Ye Feng raised the Emperor's Sword in his hand.

"Brothers, hurry up and pay your respects to the Lord of the State. He is our savior."

"He is the savior of our three northern counties."

After seeing the Emperor's Sword, many of the stationed soldiers knelt down before Ye Feng, their faces full of admiration and respect.

The three northern counties were on the edge of the Song Dynasty and had suffered from floods for years. In addition, the terrain was dangerous. Throughout the dynasties of the Song Dynasty, almost no officials were willing to come, let alone a court official like Zhenguojun who was second only to the emperor and above everyone else, and actually came in person.

"There's no need to be so polite. I'm just passing by and came to see the progress of the construction of Xijiang Weir." Ye Feng said to the many garrison troops.

In this way, Ye Feng was ultimately no match for the others. They insisted on kneeling to send Ye Feng into the three northern counties. He did not continue to stop them, but let Lao Huang drive the carriage slowly towards the direction of Xijiang County.

……

Under the cliff of Xijiang Mountain, the river water rushed down madly.

Looking down, it looks like a fish mouth. The river embankments on both sides have been built. They are not too high and just divide the rushing river water into two.

One stream is introduced into the surging river, and the other stream is introduced into the three counties of Xijiang, and they can be used to irrigate farmland.

Downstream, there are bamboo baskets filled with pebbles, which serve to block the rushing river water and drain the silt in the river. It can be said that it is an extremely mysterious construction.

"Sir Li, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would have found it hard to believe that in this lifetime, there is really someone who can control the floods in the three northern counties."

Tears sparkled in the depths of Rong Sibo's old eyes.

He served as the governor of three northern counties for decades and was well aware of the sufferings of the people there.

Now, as the Xijiang Weir built by Li Bing and his son is about to be completed, it can be predicted that the three northern counties will be fertile fields in the future.

"I would also like to thank Lord Rong for his support over the past year."

Li Bing looked up, his eyes sparkling with excitement.

The Xijiang Weir in front of him was far more ingenious and magnificent than the Nine-Turn Dam he built during the Western Shu Dynasty.

As we looked in the distance, we saw groups of migrant workers who had completely completed the construction of the dam in the middle of Yuzui.

The rushing river water rushed down like this, but instead of spreading to both sides, it split into two and flowed downstream.

"It's done!"

Li Bing's face was filled with smiles.

woohoo hoo...

Along with the rushing river, the sky above the three northern counties was filled with golden light and dragon shadows.

"Ah..."

Countless people in the three northern counties had excited smiles on their faces and cheered loudly, resounding through the sky.

"Is it done?"

Ye Feng raised his head and looked at the strange sight in the sky, with a smile on his face.

(Xijiangyan was built in imitation of Dujiangyan. You can use your imagination. The author does not need to describe it in detail. The author went to Dujiangyan about four years ago. I really have to sigh at the wisdom of the ancients and admire them very much. I added this plot to the book to share what I saw and felt with everyone. If I have time in the future, I would like to go again! Finally, please give me some free gifts!)
