523 Chapter 523
The king of Chu wanted to build a new palace, and everyone in the court was against it, and there was no one who agreed, and even a loyal minister who died by hitting a pillar for this reason, such a dead admonition made the atmosphere of the whole country a little wrong, as if the silence before the storm came.
"This thing..."
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible, my Chu country has always believed in the god of fire, it is impossible to believe in any water god, then the great witch of the Jiang country is a demon and evil generation, how can he prepare to build a water god palace for it? This is impossible!"
"But the way it is..."
"The king is in a coma, and the prince is over forty years old, and he should have succeeded to the throne a long time ago. ”
The state of Chu, which has always been extravagant, stumbled on the matter of a palace, and those who don't know think that this is about to change.
In fact, it really is, but a few days later, I heard that the king of Chu had eaten the pill offered by Fang Shijin and returned to heaven, and the forty-year-old prince cried bitterly in front of the spirit of the king of Chu, like a child, The great witch of the Fire God Palace appeared in front of everyone, and solemnly completed the ceremony of the king of Chu ascending to the sky.
The ministers repeatedly bowed to the prince, and finally the prince ascended the throne and became the new king of Chu, and the first order was to send those monks and the female relatives in the palace of the queen of Chu to be buried underground, and countless gold and silver ornaments were buried together.
"King Chu is dead?" Shui Zhen was slightly stunned, this really disrupted a lot of his plans, especially since King Chu did not fight with the Fire God Palace to the point of serious injury, which was really unexpected to him.
Is it because the Fire God Palace is too strong, or is he not the only one who is so happy with the world?
"Yes, he died so suddenly, but the princes of Chu are in their forties, and their grandsons are in their twenties, and it is not too early to ascend the throne at this time. Mizuno said what he knew.
His character is still too weak, and the water father has long known that even if he exercises repeatedly, he still can't face the real battlefield, and together with the small fights in the western country, he came back with a fart and pee after going once, and his wet pants were laughed at by the maids for a long time.
For this matter, he didn't dare to appear in front of everyone for a long time, but he was still forced to slip out by the water father, and the court was full of adults, all older than him, and no one told him to make him shameless, which made him feel better.
Because Shui Zhen showed the unpredictable power that belonged to the Great Witch, the Western Kingdom also turned a blind eye to their encroachment on the land, which was a tacit attitude, even if they relied on Zhong Guo, they were afraid of luring wolves into the house, and they didn't dare to provoke Zhong Guo over because of such a trivial matter, at that time, their own country might not survive.
The collapse of the Zeng State did not make other small countries too vigilant, in this era, this kind of small country, its own fate is unpredictable, it may disappear at any time because of some problems, and at the same time, other small countries will emerge for some reasons.
"When the monarch heard about this and wanted to abdicate to the crown prince, maybe in two days, we will also change the monarch. Mizuno continued, he was still happy to accept the news, and in layman's terms, it was some gossip.
In the past, the only people who could gossip with him were Princess Han and those maids, which is why even if he was ridiculed by the maids, he didn't kill anyone.
Now the Father of Water has taken him out of the back house, and said that he will not be allowed to enter the back house again, and the people under the command of the Water Father are obviously not in line with his eyes, and he has not told anyone this news for a long time.
And Shui Zhen behaved more kindly, and the renovated Water Temple was also more atmospheric, the place was bigger, and more beautiful, it looked more majestic than the Imperial Palace, and Mizuno had always liked such things, so he often came to the door, and found that Shui Zhen was willing to listen to these news, so he began to find more news to please Shui Zhen.
This kind of flattery is very natural for him, and he doesn't feel that his brother's identity has any decline in pleasing his younger brother, which is also rare.
"I haven't heard of anyone who follows the trend to change the king. Shui Zhen complained silently, but he couldn't stop the leading role of the big countries in these years, as if the Qin State changed the law, the surrounding small countries followed the change, and some didn't know how to change, just followed the cat and the tiger, and finally got a Handan toddler four like coming back, but the country was even worse.
"It's not to follow the trend, Shen Guo has already changed, the monarch owes a lot of debts, and he can't afford to pay it back, so he let the prince take the throne and shrink himself. Mizuno continued.
Shui Zhen is silent, small countries are like this, it is not easy to survive, if you want to do something, you will always find such and such financial difficulties, and if you want to have fun, the financial difficulties are even more difficult, but those businessmen will always lend a hand at this time, please believe that the national debt is not unique to modern times, and the national debt of the country is the root cause of the country's bankruptcy.
Well, at this time, there was no bankruptcy of the country, just the early entry of the crown prince to the throne.
I don't know what the new monarch will do with that pile of debts.
Think about the current prosperity of Shen Guo, even the monarch will live with merchants in debt, the attitude of the people of Shen Guo towards debt has the meaning of not worrying about debts, anyway, there is a son, as long as the son can still give birth to grandchildren, the next generation will repay the loan, there will always be a day when it will be repaid.
Jiang Guojun really did not resist this "wind of abdication", two days later, officially announced the abdication to the crown prince, the prince and the monarch staged a "three concessions and three resignations" in the court, and after the historian on the side confirmed that it had met the model and could circulate the history, the monarch breathed a sigh of relief and said happily: "In the future, you will have to worry about this country." ”
Such simple words don't seem to come from the mouth of the king of a country.
Shui Zhen watched this scene from the sidelines, as a witness and as the host of the succession ceremony later, he didn't see much joy on the prince's face, and the other party responded, "It seems that I didn't worry about it before." ”
This father and son!
Relieved of the burden of the king, Shui Yong's whole person seemed to be much more relaxed, and his movement was free, so he didn't have to stay in the palace all the time, so he found a room in the new water temple, declared his sovereignty, and stayed.
I have to say that the new water temple that makes the monarch distressed by the big price is not in vain, the magnificent water temple is not only the appearance of the pass, the comfort inside is also commendable, especially the shower and toilet settings, so that the monarch has been fresh for a long time, there has been a glorious page in the bathroom for half a day.
Craftsmen from foreign countries were kept by Suijin with high salaries, and after the water temple, a new city was built, and the palace was not so grand, and the more advanced drainage system and novel toilets attracted the attention of many people.
The people of Jiangguo are willing to go there to help when they have nothing to do, not only to get a more generous salary, but also to see what the place to live in the future will be like, and to build their own homes little by little, this kind of beautiful hope is nothing compared.
"The money is going to run out. "Since the former monarch Shui Yong came, he always likes to complain to Shui Zhen that the new city spends too much, the money stolen from the western country, the money transported back from Zeng Guo, and half of the annual treasury income is invested in the construction of the new city.
A large increase in population means a large increase in spending, because they are currently limited in the amount of wealth they can create, and if it weren't for Shui Zhen's current status, and the fact that he has taken on the lion's share, I am afraid that there would have been a protest long ago.
"These are all musts. Shui Zhen hadn't seriously discussed this issue with the monarch before, but this time, he put down the silk silk in his hand, turned his head and said, "The power of the Great Witch cannot be inherited. ”
"What?!" Mizuyong said in shock.
"Yes, it can't be passed on. Shui Zhen repeated again, his expression became more serious, once Jiang Guo is gone, the weakening of magic power is inevitable, and after a long time, it will naturally withdraw from history.
"The inheritance of witchcraft is difficult, and this can only be known by one disciple from the great witches of all ages..."A single line of inheritance can be broken at any time, and the complexity of witchcraft cannot be conveyed in words and words, which means that it cannot be transmitted in an ordinary way, and... The most embarrassing problem is that the previous Shui Wu probably didn't expect that he would die at that time before he died, so Shui Zhen didn't know what those whimpering words he used were.
"And rashly show the power of the Great Witch, although there will be no country against us in a short period of time, but after a long time, we will usher in the most powerful enemy, they will exterminate everyone in the water tribe with the determination to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, so that the blood of the water god will be completely cut off. ”
Shui can really postpone the time of destroying the country, as long as he shows the power of the great witch, but he can't let the destruction of the country not come again, because a small country like Jiang has no possibility of unifying the world, and the chaos of various countries is far from being able to be completed by "dividing for a long time", different races, different languages, different civilizations, different beliefs... So many countries, or able to be linked over time, but by no means now.
Because of the additional Lin County, Shui Zhen has verified too many speculations, the study of witchcraft, if you don't take the step of bloodline purification, this is already the end, this is a witchcraft that can't be recorded in words and words, and without such a bloodline, in the future world, he may not be able to use such an ability again, so the research can end here.
The rest of the thing is how to keep the inheritance of the water tribe, not the inheritance of magic power, but the bloodline, which is also what he can do.
On the silk, the layout of the new city is outlined by ink lines, and each horizontal and vertical line on it has been carefully considered by Shui Zhen, and his fingers are crossed along a certain horizontal line.
"This is hope, the last hope of the water tribe, the city of water gods. ”
Combining magic power with the formation, after the new city is built, he will use the magic power of his whole body to infuse it and establish a cycle, after that, the city can complete the absolute defense, this is the last city of the water tribe, the immortal city.
Shui Yong looked at the city layout map full of symmetrical beauty on the silk, there was expectation in his expression, he still didn't understand, but in the face of the increasingly majestic Shui Zhen, he didn't ask more questions, the fate of the small country may have been doomed from the beginning.
"Ahh

The end of this world!
Good night!
Let's go tomorrow.
