With Emperor Xia leaving Sanchuan County, the bureaucrats and magnates here all breathed a sigh of relief.

There is no way, as the first emperor to unify the human race, the majesty of Emperor Xia is too heavy, and the law of Xia is extremely strict. Although Emperor Xia never showed up after that, except for a round when he first came, they were still worried that something was wrong and he would be questioned by Emperor Xia, who was close at hand.

Now that he has finally survived until Emperor Xia leaves, at least there is not so much pressure in his heart.

However, as the head of this county, the Yutai clan has other ideas.

The status of the Shantai clan in the entire human race is somewhat special.

Because this family was not originally born in the elite, and started with physiognomy.

Unlike most of the physiognomy masters in the Canglan realm, they have won the favor of emperors and generals with their strange and ingenious skills, they are the real Xiangxing Palace, and they are famous for obeying the heavens.

The earliest Jin royal family was the Xiong clan, but later the Xiong clan declined and was replaced by the Shantai clan and became the new lord of the Jin kingdom.

But even if they were kings, they never had much ambition.

In the later period of the Five Kingdoms War, although the national strength of the Jin State was not comparable to that of the Xia Wu and Zhou Kingdoms, it was much stronger than that of the Qian. But in the war, it has always behaved more salty. Later, after Great Xia swept away Zhou Wu, the Jin State also surrendered directly and did not resist much.

Because of this, the entire family is relatively well preserved, which is also the benefit of knowing the destiny of heaven.

At this time, in the land of the Tantai clan, there were two sisters sitting on the side of the Water Pavilion and discussing the matter.

"Great Xia is dying." Tantai Jinshu looked at the northwest direction and said softly, that is where the Xia Huang chariot is at this time, and there is a faint light flickering in the amber pupils.

"Sister, the fall of Emperor Xia does not mean that Great Xia will die." Yutai Shengge retorted. Her eyes were also different from ordinary people, shimmering with a pale golden glow.

"If your words are heard by the elders of the clan, they will not be able to spare you." Wearing a plain white dress, the woman who looked a little older didn't care about her sister's words, but just admonished lightly.

"Cut, a bunch of old-fashioned." The young girl in the long cyan dress stuck out her tongue when she heard this, revealing a bit of elf eccentricity. Turning his head to look at his sister, "Is the destiny really unchangeable?" ”

"How to change?" The woman in the white dress sighed, her eyebrows shrouded in sorrow, not knowing whether she was worried about her naïve sister or sighing for this short-lived unified dynasty.

......

Yecheng, Donghai County.

Zifei looked at his teacher and asked in a deep voice, "Why did Emperor Xia kill the crown prince?" ”

The old man with white hair also looked at the most proud disciple in front of him, and asked rhetorically, "Why is the reason, don't you know?" Or rather, don't want to believe it. ”

Zifei fell silent, and his face became more and more pale.

Seeing this, the old man was a little unbearable, and comforted: "The hearts of the people in the world are fluctuating, and re-establishing order is not necessarily a bad thing. ”

"But teacher, senior brother, why did he do this?" The young man was a little confused, and this was the point he couldn't figure out the most.

"Huai Jin......" Han Guiren sighed, a little speechless for a while.

But in the end, he said, "He's different from you." Zifei, although you are not from a noble background, after all, you are the legacy of the ancient royal family, and you have your own pride. Your senior brother is different, although he has excellent qualifications, he comes from a poor background, and his ideas are naturally more complicated. ”

"Is it true that my human race can't see the sun through the clouds?" Zifei's voice was a little astringent.

"How can you achieve the extraordinary without grinding?" The old man's tone began to become stern, "This is a trap for the dragon. If you survive this calamity, the road ahead will be smooth; Can't cross it, there is the next king to lead the human race! ”

Zifei had to nod silently.

"What do you think of Liang An?" Han Guiren asked again.

He knew that his disciple had traveled to the area ruled by the Liang clan in Donghai County.

"He has the posture of a commander, is resolute and brave, and is strict and moderate. But it's a pity that he is too conceited and cherishes feathers, lacks long-term strategy, and is not a king. ”

"yes, it's not the king."

The old man looked in the direction of Anning County in the west, his eyes were misty, as if he was wandering out of the world.

......

Qucheng, Donghai County.

Liang An, who had just been commented on by the old and young as "the posture of the kingless", was very excited at this time.

"Uncle Yuan, I didn't expect that Emperor Xia actually transferred troops to encircle and suppress the crown prince Qin Zhao!"

"yes, it's unbelievable." There was still a residual look of shock in the eyes of the middle-aged man standing on the side, which had not yet dissipated.

"God help me Liang! Emperor Xia's heirs were scarce, and except for Qin Zhao, there was no one to inherit the throne and subdue the ministers. The harsh government and the people are not happy, and the authority of the Xia Emperor is declining. When Qin Zhao dies, the world will be in chaos! It is the day when we will send troops to seize the world. ”

"Xiao An, this is not a good opportunity." Uncle Yuan's face was serious, and he admonished, "I told you before that no matter how much Great Xia declines, the Xia Emperor is the Xia Emperor after all!" ”

"Uncle Yuan, this time is different from the past! Father and son can still kill each other, Emperor Xia has lost his righteousness, he can be the emperor, why can't I?! ”

Seeing that Liang An's eyes were firm and confident, Uncle Yuan didn't say much, so he had to sigh lightly: "Let's wait until the crown prince dies." ”

"You and I all know Emperor Xia's soldiers, Qin Zhao will die in this battle!"

Uncle Yuan was speechless for a while, he did learn about the distribution of troops near Anning County through the Liang family's news network, and he didn't think that Qin Zhao could still survive.

......

Xiangxian County, Jiangbei County, in the camp where Zhou's private army was stationed.

"General, have all the 100,000 Cangshan guards been sent?"

"Back to the young master, there are a lot of them, and they are all sent out!"

"Very good, since Emperor Xia wants to kill the crown prince, then we will help him!"

Zhou Yu looked excited, looked at his own general Zhou Xi and said, "General, you should also go to the front line to lead the troops." ”

Zhou Xi replied calmly: "Young master, in fact, there is no need to be like this. Qin Zhao is alive, and the father and son are facing each other, which is more beneficial to us. ”

Zhou Yu was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then thought thoughtfully.

"But it's a pity, even if I don't make a move, it is estimated that Qin Zhao will not be able to escape this catastrophe." Zhou Xi said indifferently.

"Well, you're right. But the crown prince died, and the result was not bad. As soon as this incident comes out, the world will inevitably be in chaos. I have been in obscurity for many years, and I finally have the opportunity to return to China! ”

Hearing this, Zhou Xi's eyes stared, stared at Zhou Yu, and said in a deep voice: "Don't act impulsively!" There are so many heroes in the world, chaos together, there are people who are the king's precursors, why do you want to be this bird? ”

Seeing his stern expression, Zhou Yu hurriedly lowered his head and admitted his mistake, "It's as simple as I thought, there is really no need to rush for a while." ”

Zhou Xi nodded with satisfaction when he saw this.

"By the way, General, I heard that there have been some commotions in Shangyang County recently?"

"I went to investigate, and the specific reason is still unclear." Zhou Xi sneered, "This is a sign of the death of the country." ”

......

The capital of Great Xia, Yangcheng.

In the Prime Minister's Mansion, Chu Huaijin was quietly sipping tea.

Suddenly, a guard came in and reported: "Prime Minister, Taiwei Yan often asks to see you." ”

"Let's just say that the official is in poor health and won't see the guest for the time being!"

"Yes!"

The guard was just about to receive the order to leave, when he suddenly heard Chu Huaijin say again: "Forget it, please let him in." ”

A moment later, the guard walked into the house with an old man with frosty temples.

Although the old man's sideburns have turned white, he is in good spirits, and he does not show the slightest old age.

After seeing Chu Huaijin, he hugged his fists and said in a loud voice: "Prime Minister, I'm disturbed." ”

Chu Huaijin waved his hand and retreated from his subordinates and looked at Yan Chang.

"I don't know why the captain is here?"

"My granddaughter sent me a letter some time ago and spoke highly of the current prince. Now that I heard that His Majesty wants to execute the crown prince, I wonder if there is still room for maneuver? The old man directly took out the words that he had prepared a long time ago.

"Emperor Chrysostom, how can he change his order?" Chu Huaijin took a sip of tea before he said softly unhurriedly.

"After all, there is no edict issued, and I think Your Majesty has not yet made up his mind."

Chu Huaijin nodded and did not refute.

In fact, both of the people present knew about the poisoned wine, but at this time, both sides had their own thoughts, and neither revealed the matter.

"I'm old and frail now, and I don't have the energy to worry about state affairs, so this can be regarded as the last time Daxia makes a speech." The old man sighed.

When Chu Huaijin heard this, his expression moved slightly, and he understood that this was Yan Chang's concession.

He nodded and said, "Your Majesty's intentions are beyond my reach, and I will try my best to persuade them." ”

"In that case, I won't bother the prime minister too much." Yan often knows that it is useless to say more, and it is the limit to do this step. didn't talk any more nonsense, and turned around and left.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, what do you think I should do?"

Chu Huaijin looked in the direction of Anning County from afar, and said to himself silently in his heart.
