Chapter 214: Restlessness
The next day, when the people on the front lines of the war noticed that the Bloods had not moved all night and were puzzled, the news of the end of the war came.
The situation is like a reappearance of four years ago, but the sensation caused is far from being comparable to that time, at the time of the orc war, many people in the Vermilion Bird Continent did not suffer a disaster, but the nightmare brought by the blood clan this time really haunted everyone.
No matter what the orcs say, they are just fighting, but the blood clan brings more fear than fighting. They are like a plague, and the spread of this time has filled everyone's heart with fear, fear of being enslaved by others, fear of relatives doing it to themselves, fear of never being able to live beyond life.
To be precise, the Bloodline didn't pay much attention to it at first. However, their locust-like spread, mysterious powers, strict hierarchies, and various rumors have made the Blood Clan 'demonized', and the civilians of the Vermilion Bird Continent have seriously overestimated them.
Therefore, when the news of the end of the war came out, the whole continent could not be quiet, and at this time, the news came that Xia Han was going to unify and other kingdoms, and for a while, conflicts broke out frequently in various places.
"We're going to resist and get him out!"
Barren Hill City, a border city of the Chunhui Empire, the bloated city lord stood on the city wall and gave a speech: "Our prince is imprisoned and his life and death are uncertain, how can the throne be plundered by an outsider!" β
"Don't forget who gave you food and drink, now that the national crisis is at hand, everyone must join the struggle!"
Beneath the walls, thousands of civilians whispered as they surrounded the guards.
"The lord of the castle is crazy?"
"He wants us to start a riot together and stop the king of the Xia clan."
"How can this be. That man saved us......"
"Yes, he's a savior."
Hearing these whispers, the knight captain gave a shout to the interlocutor, "Quiet. β
"Who said he was the savior, didn't you hear from the lord of the city? This is a conspiracy of the Blood Clan, Xia Han has betrayed us, and as long as he becomes our king, he will let those monsters in. β
As soon as the reason for the blood clan's truce came out, some people doubted its authenticity, and Xia Han was also questioned as a person who defected to the blood clan, which caused many people to be uneasy. In the midst of this uneasiness, like this scene in Wasteland City. It is staged in almost every area. This made Xia Han, who received the news, feel quite tricky.
He expected a revolt, but he didn't expect it to be so huge.
Throughout the morning, Xia Han frowned at the information about the disturbances in various places, but for a while he had no choice.
"Why should Your Majesty be worried?"
The study room of the Chunhui Palace. Ji Bai was refreshed. Unimpressed by Xia Han's troubles: "The general trend is the general trend." The news of the cessation of the invasion of the Blood Clan will inevitably do more good than harm, as long as public opinion is controlled a little, those fleas will not be able to turn over. β
He had the confidence to say this. In fact, the information coming from all over the country is generally positive, because there was a precedent four years ago, and people's trust in Xia Han far outweighs suspicion.
Xia Han also knew this, most of the people who stood up and made trouble were nobles and commanders with military power, and they had their own ambitions to spread suspicion. However, there are not many people among the poor who will doubt Xia Han, and the miracles that Xia Han has created in the past have already made them believe in him. In the eyes of these people, the high-ranking people are omnipotent, and Xia Han's reputation was laid a long time ago.
The mind of this world is far from open, superstition occupies a large share among the human poor, Xia Han can be said to be the desire of the people, and doubts about him will disappear sooner or later.
However, 'sooner or later' is the origin of Xia Han's entanglement, he is not worried that the disturbance will lead to another split, but the tide is still two days away, if the human race cannot stabilize to resist the enemy, there are too many variables for the future layout.
[What a hassle! γ
Xia Han hates iron but not steel, those noisy people are simply looking for trouble, can't their eyes be bright to see current affairs?
As he thought so, one of the guards bowed in.
"Your Majesty, there are several great lords who want to see you."
He whispered, his voice a little shaky, for fear that the new master would be angry.
"High Lord?" However, Xia Han's personality is different from that of the two princes, and he will not vent his anger in the morning on the new servant casually. Hearing the word 'Great Lord', Xia Han quickly reacted.
"Quick, please let them in!"
Expectation flashed in his eyes, and it seemed that the nobles of the Chunhui Empire were not all blind.
Soon after, seven lords of different ages walked in, their expressions respectful and cautious, and after entering the door, they called Xia Han His Majesty, and without even making any other indications, Xia Han knew that the problem of commotion could be solved.
The most troublesome problem in the Chunhui Empire is that the two princes do not cooperate with his actions very well, but if some people at the top of the nobility are willing to bypass the prince to serve Xia Han, then the restlessness can quickly subside.
No one had come to Xia Han since the morning, and he thought that these nobles were stubborn, but it didn't seem to be the case.
Clever nobles don't make choices lightly, and they are obviously also gathering intelligence in the morning, and they only came to Xia Han after determining the general situation. These people have the same starting point as the nobles who rioted everywhere, for ambition and profit, but they are smarter, and they can distinguish the situation in a short time, and it is an indisputable fact that Xia Han rules mankind.
That being the case, choosing to surrender is the best option. Now that the new political system is not perfect, the nobles have a greater chance of rising, and they take the initiative to show their strength to Xia Han and solve his troubles, which is the best period for meritorious service. The only problem was that these seven Great Lords didn't understand Xia Han's attitude towards them.
Fortunately, Xia Han gave them a reassuring pill.
"I don't have the idea of completely cleaning the aristocratic system of the Chunhui Empire for the time being, at least not for the time being. As for the future, I think you'd have studied what I did during the Orc Wars, and it won't change. β
In that war, the original Emerald Empire's aristocratic system did not change much, and the nobles could use their existing strength to plunder the credit, including the battlefield and post-war reconstruction. At the time of the establishment of the Radiant Empire, the previous aristocratic system was ineffective and power was redistributed.
γNirvana Born ......γ
The seven Great Lords glanced at each other a few times, and almost all of them saw the naked ambitions of the others.
"I am willing to serve Your Majesty."
They have the foundation to work hard, and naturally they will not let go of this God-given opportunity.
Nearly 10,000 years of history, this is the second co-master in the history of mankind, and the future blueprint of the Glorious Empire can be predicted, these realms can mainly squeeze into the upper echelons of the empire, which is much stronger than being limited to Chunhui alone.
