The Book of Troubled Times Chapter 629

Chapter 629: When the Four Symbols Cult and the Demon Suppressor Unite

The vast country before our eyes…

yes.

Since Lao Xia is dead, either everyone can throw away their hands and return to the world, sit back and watch Xia lose his deer and the whole world is expelled, waiting for a new bright master to unify the world.

Are you willing to do this?

If you don't want to, then you have to take over and clean up the mess yourself.

There is no place in the world that recognizes Daxia, and even few people in the capital recognize it. Whether Zhao Changhe or Xia Chichi want to take over the position, they are afraid that the officials will not be able to summon them, and no one will pay attention to them at all.

The prince Zhao Changhe that many people thought of before? The whole world is rebelling, and the emperor doesn't recognize him. What kind of prince is he?

 Xia Chichi? Which of you…

Once Commoner wakes up from his dream, he sees thousands of miles of mountains and rivers in front of him, but he has to take care of them all by himself.

There is almost no political legacy to speak of. It can even be said that it is more difficult to clean up the world in the name of inheriting the Xia Dynasty than to establish a new territory and conquer the world all over again, because all the negative effects left by the old Xia are negative.

A person with powerful supernatural powers knows that he has no ability to govern and has no selfish desires. If he were replaced by a rebel with a decent reputation, he might join the group. But what if Xia Jun came to recruit An? The Divine Glory Wind and Thunder Palm may have greeted you in the face, but the name brings a completely different mentality.

On the contrary, it was Zhao Changhe who gave Daxia the "legacy"... If Li Shentong didn't greet him with a slap, it would just be because this person was Zhao Changhe and he would give him some face. Jiangnan, Cui family, Caobang, Jingxiang and Miaojiang are basically the same. They will not recognize a Xia prince. If they recognize him by holding their noses, it is because this person is Zhao Changhe.

Unconsciously, Zhao Changhe himself can play a greater political significance than anyone else, and his energy converges to the extent of almost half of the rivers and mountains.

 This is something you do as a human being... But saving face does not mean that everyone will listen to you just by cheering. There are many, many things to do.

The funniest thing is that there are no soldiers in the capital, and there are only a bunch of drunkards and ricebags. If a "King Qin's Army" suddenly arrives in the capital at this moment, they might all be driven away directly.

Zhao Changhe and Zhuque Xia Chi looked at each other for a long time, with these questions spinning in their minds. Finally, Zhao Changhe sighed: "Your Majesty, cooperation?"

Suzaku raised his chin: "We support you as the emperor, and we are the state religion, right? It is very important for brothers to settle accounts clearly. Even if you are a hot-tempered pig, we must have a clearer discussion. For example, after you come to power, The Queen must..."

"Wait a minute..." Zhao Changhe waved his hand: "I want to help Chi Chi get on stage."

 Suzaku: “…”

Xia Chichi glanced at Zhao Changhe, smiled slightly, and said nothing.

Zhao Changhe asked: "What's your opinion? If you don't want to, then let's discuss it separately."

Xia Chichi smiled and said: "If you don't want to do it, of course it's just me. Do you really want to stay away from the world and fight against it, leaving others to fight for the world here? When did I, Xia Chichi, become a saint?"

 “emmmm…”

Xia Chichi looked deeply at Xia Longyuan's body and whispered to himself: "And I want to do it. He left you alone, and his last words were like Zhao Lie to Wu Hou... I want to say why should he, he is nothing like Zhao Lie , and why do you regard me as Adou? Not only do I have to do it, I also have to pay off his debts to the world. In the future, ask him, what about your daughter, who you never even saw a glimpse of in the end? Maybe the only valuable thing you have in this world is I gave birth to this daughter!”

Zhao Changhe nodded: "Since you have this intention, I will definitely help you."

Zhuque asked: "It's actually easier for you to do it yourself, why don't you do it? Because Xia Longyuan asked me to leave alone?"

Zhao Changhe said: "Lao Xia owes others, but he doesn't owe me. I think he is wrong in official matters. I should try my best to complete the private matters entrusted to me. This is the right thing to do."

 Suzaku was silent.

　　I don't want to give up the throne in front of me, for the sake of justice... No wonder someone like you would meet the Tang family's eyes. They are really a match made in heaven.

 Hum, how did I meet your eyes?

"The more important point is..." Zhao Changhe whispered: "I can't be the emperor, and I have to fight in all directions. In the future, I will have to deal with gods and demons. If I also take this position, it will be the first Two Xia Longyuan. If you are truly peerless as a warrior, why would you want to become an emperor... A person who is blind can really feel bright in his heart..."

 Blind man: “…”

Suzaku didn't hesitate and said directly: "Since you all have this intention, let's discuss it. Her blood relationship and the so-called inheritance of the great line are all negative effects if you think about it. If it's like this, it's better for me to teach myself the Four Elephants." The world must be upright and self-reliant.”

“That's it, you stand on your own feet, and I'll help you conquer the world.”

 Suzaku's eyes behind the mask widened.

Zhao Changhe tilted his head slightly. Even if it was covered by a mask, his look looked too much like Huangfu Qing's expression of surprise and cuteness. Be cool, if you keep doing this I can't help but expose your mask...

He calmed down and said seriously: "There are not many decent soldiers and horses in the capital. The last elite force has been taken to Puyang by Huangfu Shaozong. There are several people who can fight now. One is the servants and thugs raised by each family. The nature of the capital's territory Unlike the armed forces of the landlords everywhere, they are not an army. You and I can defeat them alone. The second is the Demon Suppression Division under Wan Zhuang's rule. These are the real elites, and most of them still serve Wan Zhuang..."

Suzaku said expressionlessly: "Yes, evening makeup."

Zhao Changhe tilted his head: "The third one was played by Venerable Qing'er and I..." There is no pause between the words Qing'er and Venerable, and the word "chui" is accented. I don't know what it means.

Zhuque wanted to tell him to be more careful when he spoke, but at least he paused to make it clear. Zhao Changhe continued: "The Four Symbols Cult has great potential. Officials from the DPRK and China have infiltrated it, and there are also a large number of lurking followers among the people. We can organize them at any time. Strengthen the army. I think Qing'er has already organized it, and is waiting for Lao Xia to take control of the imperial city at any time. With this announcement from the Book of Troubled Times, work may be happening outside."

Zhuque's lips curved into a smile: “You're not stupid.”

 Of course I am fully prepared! As long as the late Tang Dynasty makeup doesn't get in the way, we can directly rely on the capital to stand on our own. Not to mention learning from Dong Zhuo, but learning from Li Jue and Guo Bin to hold hundreds of officials hostage is just like playing.

 The biggest difference from the late Han Dynasty is that the legal system of the Han Dynasty is still there, and messing with it will lose justice. And this Daxia is really independent, as long as you can convince others.

While he was talking, there were the sound of neat footsteps coming from above, and someone reported from above: "Reporting to Your Majesty, the four gates of the capital and all the gates of the palace city have been controlled. Hundreds of officials have been escorted to the palace gate by the brothers in the teaching, waiting for the court meeting... Well, not all of them are detained, many of them are actually our brothers."

Zhen·Dong Zhuo entered Beijing.

 The Four Elephant Cult has been dormant for many years and finally revealed its fangs.

The three of them left the Ancestral Temple underground and quickly headed to the palace gate. They saw hundreds of officials standing there, looking at the three people who came, with unclear meaning in their eyes.

Many "informed people" believed that Zhao Changhe was the hidden prince, and they were waiting for the news that he would announce his succession to the throne. It was his words that many people had been preparing for for a long time, so it was not unacceptable. But there is a very serious problem. The whole world was rebelling before, and Xia Longyuan didn't even have any dragon energy anymore, which means that these people are actually rebelling. If he is really succeeded by the prince, should he be liquidated?

And there are many aristocratic families here, as well as their disciples and former officials...basically all of them.

 So, Lao Xia's legacy is basically all negative influence. Knowing that you are the prince, I have psychological expectations that you will be the one, but I don't think there are many people who will succeed you.

It would be better to use absolute force to establish a new world. The Four Symbols Sect has officials, an army, and a high-level team. The foundation is there, but it may need to go through a relatively brutal purge.

In front of the hundred officials, an old man slowly spoke: "I am Lu Jianzhang, who has been appointed as the prime minister. The prince and his nephew Shouyi had a relationship..."

　　It sounds like a relationship-building thing, but in fact it is full of irony. A "prince" who is now planning to ascend to the throne does not even know what the prime minister looks like.

 Zhao Changhe smiled: "I've met Mr. Lu."

Lu Jianzhang said: "If the prince wants to succeed to the throne, why does he get involved with the devil's sect and threaten all officials?"

Zhao Changhe said: "Who said that the prince succeeded to the throne? My surname is Zhao."

Hundred officials were stunned at what he said...

But I heard Xia Chichi speak calmly, with a clear and cold voice: "The ignorant king has no way, and the world will attack him. The Four Elephants Sect inherited the destiny, sent the blue dragon to the world, and established the kingdom of the world. Could it be that the origins of Lu Xiang's family and scholarship were unknown to the people of the previous era? Where is the emperor?"

Lu Jianzhang was stunned. The Human Emperor of the last era seemed to be the ancient Qinglong. Because of this nonsense, the Four Symbols Sect even mistook Xia Longyuan...

  Legal principles and legal traditions can be found all over the Confucian debates. The legal traditions of the Four Symbols Sect have been inherited to ancient times. Where is the need to take over from Xia Longyuan...

Many people are thinking that this step is interesting. It seems that it is not impossible to get down... What is Lu Jianzhang doing here as a representative of all officials? Why can't we first express our stance to follow the dragon? The main thing is to think clearly. Now the forces of the Four Symbols Sect are not only the capital but also Jianghuai. Will they be able to succeed in the future?

There are many people who are just former officials of aristocratic families, but they are not from a wealthy family themselves... If they follow the right master, why can't they become a new aristocratic family?

Just as he was thinking about it, a neat queue suddenly appeared at the palace gate and went straight up the steps.

Xia Chichi looked coldly and saw Tang Wanzhuang striding over with a group of elites from the Demon Suppression Division.

 The two looked at each other, with sparks in their eyes.

All the officials who wanted to speak stopped talking, secretly thinking that something good was coming. Tang Wanzhuang's prestige in the government and the public is not a joke. As long as she objects, if the Four Symbols Sect wants to wipe out the Demon Suppression Division, it will still be a demon sect in the eyes of the world. It will lose the hearts of the people and is not as good as Dong Zhuo.

In full view of everyone, Tang Wanzhuang stood in front of Xia Chichi and looked at each other for a long time. Suddenly, she turned slightly sideways and knelt down on one knee to salute: "Tang Wanzhuang and his colleagues from the Suppressing Demon Division are here to see the crown prince."

 No one saw that the direction of her kneeling was slightly off. In fact, she was only willing to kneel to Zhao Changhe.

In the eyes of others, he was the first to show his support for Xia Chichi's proclaimed emperor!

 Everyone was stunned. This character of Tang Wanzhuang is ruined... Everyone knows clearly from the previous notice in the Book of Troubled Times that the person who said he wanted to kill your clan was a puppet and a fake, not the real majesty. Now you are going against it? If Tang Wanzhuang's character collapses and she becomes the first one to support the demon sect and rebel, her halo will be lost... Why are all the colleagues in the Demon Suppression Department quiet and silent, no one objects?

 Wait a minute... She said she was meeting the prince. What prince was she meeting?

Xia Chichi curled her lips invisibly and bent down to help Tang Wanzhuang: "Although I am the orphan of Emperor Xia, I am not the crown prince. I am even going to change dynasties. I don't need to mention this anymore."

The crowd roared.

  Relates to what Zhao Changhe said just now, "My surname is Zhao", and the person surnamed Xia is here!

 This is the bloodline of Emperor Shinatsu!

This time it's interesting, whether those who support the change of dynasty or those who support traditional legal principles, they can all correspond to the same person. The complex reactions that came together were difficult to sort out for a while. The first point is that the prince rebelled on his own, and she will not liquidate him!

Tang Wanzhuang said: "I receive kindness from others, and I am willing to assist him in his wishes. This is a private matter. I am a citizen of China, and it does not matter what dynasty or generation I am in. This is a public matter. I hope that your majesty can learn from the past and take the world as a guide. Heart."

The essence is the first half of the sentence... It sounds like I am willing to support his daughter because of the kindness of the late emperor, but why not just say it...

 Suzaku kept squinting without saying a word, looking in the direction where Tang Wanzhuang was kneeling. He said, "I support you unconditionally. If you are a man, just say it directly, and still beat around the bush..."

But turning around to look at everyone's dumbfounded looks, she had to admit that Tang Wanzhuang's platform was much more effective than her Sixiang Cult's intimidation and coercion. One person could serve as a hundred thousand soldiers... This is a righteous heart. Who said that? Things are useless!
