Frontier Army Warrior

Chapter 946 Unable to Control

Originally, Zhao Zheng was not eager to ascend the throne or take revenge. However, after Zhao Zhen's death, he felt that if he delayed any further, those fallen royal family members might not be able to bear the hardships of life and die one after another, which would be bad.

At his coronation ceremony, he would be very unhappy if a few of his family enemies were absent.

After all, if you don't remove this thorn in your heart, it will hurt you for the rest of your life.

However, there was a thorn in front of Zhao Zheng's eyeball.

The entire Taisho Kyoto city has been completely taken over by himself.

But it is not perfect after all.

The capital city of Dazong is surrounded by eight acropolises, and when viewed from above, it looks like a group of stars surrounding the moon.

However, one of these eight Acropolises was not under the jurisdiction of his Da Zheng Dynasty.

This would make anyone who entered Kyoto feel very unhappy.

As time goes by, this feeling of frustration will become more and more severe, to the point that you will be suddenly awakened from your sleep.

I’m afraid that one day, the Zhenxi Army will break into the city through the opening of Xuncheng.

At this time, Zhao Zheng was unable to sleep or eat.

At the beginning of the war, when Zhao Zheng captured Kyoto City, he didn't feel anything.

Now it seems that the Kyoto City with a missing corner is not only very embarrassing, but Lin Feng's behavior is a pure insult to him, Zhao Zheng, and Zhao Zheng's Da Zheng Dynasty.

How can I allow others to sleep soundly on the side of the couch?

Lin Feng's actions were to make the pirates, who were not worthy of being in the public eye, laugh at Zhao Zheng for his incompetence.

However, Lan Yu and other ministers had advised Zhao Zheng that Lin Feng's Zhenxi Army had strong ships and powerful artillery, and their imperial guards could not withstand it at all.

If you want to take back Xuncheng, you must take it slow.

Zhao Zheng vented his anger a little too much today and felt very tired.

After returning to the bedroom, he asked the eunuchs to prepare hot soup so that he could take a bath and relieve his fatigue.

The eunuchs were busy getting water, while several concubines took off his clothes and helped Zhao Zheng lie down in the steaming pool.

Zhao Zheng hummed comfortably, his hands groping around randomly, making several concubines feel coquettish and angry.

Suddenly, he splashed water twice and frowned in thought.

After a moment, he gave a loud order.

"Come here, summon the envoy of the Atsumi family to see you."

It had been quite some time since this envoy came to Kyoto to pay him a visit, and Zhao Zheng had almost forgotten about it.

Only then did I remember that this envoy wanted to unite with Taisho and sail in the waters within the territory.

Wouldn't this be a perfect way to restrain the warships of the Zhenxi Army?

The Atsumi family is the largest force among pirates. They have lived on islands all year round and naturally have a set of skilled techniques in the use of warships.

The Taisho Imperial Army controlled the land and joined forces with the Atsumi family to control the waters, which was the only way to completely prevent the Zhenxi Army's warships from roaming around the Jinjiang waters with impunity.

Zhao Zheng couldn't help but chuckle when he thought of his pride.

"Your Majesty, the Atsumi family's envoy is waiting outside the palace."

"Tell him to come into the palace and see the emperor."

Seeing Zhao Zheng nod, the eunuch shouted loudly.

Zhao Zheng was half lying in the steaming pool, squinting his eyes and enjoying the beauty's kneading.

The envoy of the Atsumi family slowly stepped into the hall.

The messenger was wearing a black cloak, a hood on his head, and a veil on his face, covering his body, head and face.

When he reached the edge of the pool, he bent down and lowered his head.

"Atsumi Shunsui of the Atsumi family greets His Majesty."

Zhao Zheng squinted his eyes and glanced at her.

"Remove the face cloth and hood."

Atsumi Shunsui hesitated for a moment, reached out to flip the hood back, and then gently took off the veil covering her face.

Zhao Zheng was very satisfied with his own momentum, which made the other party obey him obediently.

He let out a long, comfortable breath, and glanced at the messenger inadvertently with his squinting eyes.

Just this one glance made him unable to move his eyes anymore.

His squinted eyes gradually widened and he stared blankly at Atsumi Shunsui who was standing by the pool.

Under the misty fog, a delicate face looks like a fairy sent down from heaven, and the slowly floating mist adds to the ethereal temperament.

Even Zhao Zheng, who had seen countless beauties, could not take his eyes off her.

The concubine standing by pinched Zhao Zheng a little harder, awakening him from his stupor and bringing his soul back to its place.

"May I have your name?"

"Your Majesty, Atsumi Shunsui."

"Chun Shui...haha, what a good name, it perfectly suits the atmosphere."

"Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty."

Zhao Zheng didn't dare to look at her delicate face hidden in the mist again, for fear of falling into it again and being unable to extricate himself.

"Atsumi Shunsui, you came to see me, but what do you want to say?"

Atsumi Shunsui bowed slightly and said, "Your Majesty, Atsumi Shunsui brought a blueprint of a sea vessel, which will be of great use to the inland waters of the Taisho era."

"Ship?"

"Oh, Your Majesty, this boat has been improved by us and is most suitable for sailing in inland waters."

Zhao Zheng nodded: "Why would you bring such a blueprint to me?"

"Your Majesty, the Zhenxi Army has occupied all the water resources in the entire Taisho territory. Doesn't Your Majesty want to fight with them?"

Zhao Zheng didn't say anything. Of course he wanted to fight for it. The resources in the entire water area were too huge. At present, the Zhenxi Army had more than a dozen warships, which made it simply invincible.

They could roam freely in the inner and outer waters of the Taisho period, and no one dared to compete with them.

Zhao Zheng knew clearly what he lacked.

Fast warships and long-range attack artillery.

It was obvious that this pirate family would not disappoint him in terms of warship technology.

But Blue Domain still hasn't figured out the artillery technology for him.

No matter what, he had to take one step at a time. Sooner or later, Zhao Zheng would destroy Lin Feng's Zhenxi Army and realize the great cause of unifying the entire territory.

"Okay, let me see how powerful your warships are."

As he spoke, Zhao Zheng stood up from the water.

The water in this pool is just deep enough to reach Zhao Zheng's waist. However, the water is clear. Although there is a thin mist covering it, Zhao Zheng's body is barely visible underwater.

Zhao Zhengshang's half body is eye-catching.

The strong yet soft lines and muscles on his body show the masculinity of a middle-aged man.

With a smile on his face, Zhao Zheng walked forward in the water, gradually approaching Atsumi Shunsui who was standing by the pool.

Atsumi Shunsui had a steady body, a calm expression on his face, and sparkling eyes without a trace of fluctuation.

Zhao Zheng came to the edge of the pool. Because the water in the pool was lower than the ground outside, he had to look up at Atsumi Shunsui.

A eunuch was standing by and shouting loudly.

"How dare you! Why don't you just bow down!"

Atsumi Shunsui took a deep breath and slowly squatted down.

"Atsumi Shunsui, take out your blueprints and let me see them."

At such a close distance, the fog could no longer block the view, and Zhao Zheng could see the underwater scene clearly with just a glance.

He did it on purpose. Just now, when he faced Atsumi Shunsui, he was stunned by her beauty and felt like he was out of his mind.

Zhao Zheng is a man of integrity and the emperor of the Taisho Dynasty. How could he lose his composure for a woman?

We must win back a game.

That's why Zhao Zheng deliberately stood up and went straight to Atsumi Shunsui.

He is exercising his willpower and not letting beauty influence his judgment.

Unfortunately, the distance between the two of them shortened, and Zhao Zheng couldn't control himself.
