Chapter 148: Why Don't You Earn Money If You Have Money?
Four years later.
In four years, there was chaos on the five continents.
I don't know how the flames of war started at that moment, and spread to the ten countries, and every frontier was filled with the smell of gunpowder smoke and human blood.
These are not the most shocking, the most shocking thing is that the Great Zhou State, which was once a power on five continents.
In four years, the regime of the Great Zhou Dynasty changed dramatically.
The Empress Dowager Qing Ripple used to be eyeing the imperial power, but since the fire in the Cheng'an Palace three years ago, Princess Cheng'an passed away suddenly.
King Cheng'an was like a different person.
It is rumored that on the seventh day of Princess Cheng'an's first day, he carried a sword into the Ci'an Palace in the middle of the night, and arrested the queen mother and the foreign minister Qin Zhimu in bed.
At the end of that day, Qing Lianyi raised his sword and killed himself in Ci'an Palace.
A generation of queen mothers, the death of the whole world was shocked.
However, more people feel that these are rumors and cannot be trusted.
However, the next actions of the king of Cheng'an made people have to doubt the authenticity of these.
He is already powerful and vaguely involved in politics.
After that, he no longer even hid his means.
The little emperor was completely constrained, had no decision-making power in political affairs, and became an empty shell emperor.
And King Cheng'an is also crowned by the world as the 'regent'.
It is said that King Cheng'an has changed.
Ruthless, authoritarian, violent.
He turns into a bloodthirsty monster.
The most terrifying thing is that a small country has constantly provoked the border of the Great Zhou Dynasty, which is not a big deal, and it is enough to send a team of troops to suppress it.
But that time, it was King Cheng'an who stepped forward.
I heard that he led 50,000 troops, directly set foot on that small country, and shot countless people.
Blood stained the land of that country black and red.
The head of the king of that country was hung on the great periphery of the city down to the bones.
No one knows why King Cheng'an changed.
If it was because of the death of Princess Cheng'an and her son, King Cheng'an never erected a monument to them, nor did he miss them in front of the world.
But if not, I heard that the side princess, together with the newly born little son, lost all news after the fire.
The once charred Begonia Garden in Cheng'an Wangfu has never been renovated.
I heard that this place has become the most terrifying existence in the Cheng'an Palace.
Walking through the night, the wind blew the half-burned lantern, whining, as if a ghost was crying.
His Royal Highness the Prince Regent is not often in Yanjing, and in the past three years, he has fought in the south and the north, and has traveled to all places in the five continents.
Everywhere he went, there was the smoke of war.
However, there is another country that has gradually emerged in the past four years.
Shangyang is a belligerent country, a country on war horses.
In recent years, wars have been raging everywhere, making life difficult for the people of the five continents and ten people.
The most important thing is that their eldest prince, Meng Jiu'an, threatened to take Da Zhou into his pocket.
The relationship between Shangyang and Da Zhou became increasingly tense, and the two countries continued to fight in a small area.
However, it is clear that Wuzhou can no longer afford any major war.
In the past few years, the war has been rampant, and the people have struggled to make a living, and there have been many more displaced people.
Shuttling through the land of five continents, there are people everywhere who go south.
They walked through the war-torn land, wounded and sick, in search of a place to plant a living crop.
It is said that war is in turmoil, people's livelihood is in turmoil, and God is damned.
Ji Shiyan and Meng Jiu'an's infamy spread far and wide in the land of five continents.
However, the end of everything came from a place called Yakuo Valley in Chaoge.
The crow crows in the branches.
In the distance, a group of fast horses shuttled through the official road, setting off a gust of wind accompanied by yellow sand.
The army holding the banner of the Great Zhou Dynasty slowly stepped on the gravel, and the army of 30,000 people, from five miles away, still looked mighty.
"Ji Shiyan has a head, and he has already offered a reward of one million gold." A voice said, "Millions of gold are not easy to kill, right?" ”
"Nonsense, if it's good to kill, you can still offer a million bounty? So many people in the rivers and lakes didn't come back with their lives, the force of this season's banquet is really scary for no reason, big boss, do we really want to go? ”
The 'big boss' was dressed in a short red robe, lying on his side on the gravel, looking at the mighty army in the distance.
Her long hair was tied up in a crown high above her head, and she was obviously dressed as a man, but because her facial features were too beautiful, people could conclude that it was a woman at a glance.
The good-looking affectionate eyes narrowed slightly, and she opened her mouth: "It's all for money." ”
At this time, a brother who went out to inquire came back, he took off the face towel used to cover his face, revealing Xu Bai's baby face, and walked over quickly: "I heard it, they set up camp in Lotus Pass ten miles away tonight, and set off for Yanjing tomorrow." ”
"Girl, we only have one chance tonight."
Qingjiujiu turned his head and rolled his eyes: "Don't call me a girl, I'm dressed as a man now." ”
Xu Bai: "......"
He said to himself, "You don't look like it."
But in the end, I shut up and didn't dare to say it.
However, the assassination of Ji Shiyan was still too dangerous, and he still wanted to persuade him.
"The big boss, they all say that Ji Shiyan has changed a lot in recent years, bloodthirsty and violent, it seems that there is only murder in his eyes, we finally escaped from Yanjing at that time, are you sure you want to take the risk?"
Qingjiujiu got up from the sand and patted the sand off his body.
She has changed a lot compared to four years ago, her body is much rounder, and her face is more bright.
"Of course I'm prepared." Qingjiujiu threw something to Xu Bai: "A total of twenty bullets, eight times the scope aiming." ”
She didn't plan to run into Ji Shiyan head-on.
Escaping from Yanjing back then was a dead end, what would happen if you bumped into him again, Qingjiujiu was not stupid.
I heard that he even forced Qing Ripple to death.
If he knew that the fire was set up by herself from the beginning, he would have guided Qing Ripples step by step.
There's no doubt that your head will be screwed off.
Xu Bai's hand was a cold guy, and when he lifted it, he couldn't understand what the structure was.
However, it has a very long tube, very heavy, and there is a long-sighted mirror on it, and when the eyes look at it, it seems that the person ten miles away is in front of him.
Qing Jiujiu said: "Pull the trigger below, although the lethality is not as good as AWM, but if you can hit the heart, you will not be far from death." ”
Xu Bai knew that Qingjiujiu had always liked to tinker with these strange things.
He wasn't surprised, but Qing Jiujiu was able to kill Ji Shiyan so decisively.
His eyes flashed in the 'eightfold mirror', and Ji Shiyan's figure was riding on a horse.
I haven't seen him for four years, which made Xu Bai a little surprised.
It is said that Ji Shiyan is brutal and murderous, and the world thinks he is high-spirited.
But when he looked at it, he found that King Cheng'an, who was known as the first handsome King of the Great Zhou Dynasty, actually had a trace of gray hair on his sideburns.
"Big boss, do you really want to kill him?"
What they are doing is not a killer's business, but they are really short of money recently, so Qingjiujiu said that they would come out to take over a business.
However, Ji Shiyan is like a stranger here in Qingjiujiu.
She raised her eyebrows and wondered: "Why don't you earn money if you have money?" ”
