Chapter 418: Twin Emperor Mode
Three days later, in the middle of Jidu.
Yang Zunhuan left the embassy with mixed feelings.
Their Yang family, all along, has also been one of the first-line families in the Qi country. Although it is not as powerful as the Cui clan, there have always been clansmen in important positions throughout the ages. And himself, as the head of the Yang family, a monk of the late Yuan Infant Sect, has been in charge of the construction of the whole country of Daqi since sixty years ago.
But even so, with his status, two days ago, he was only qualified to welcome the arrival of Lu Qing, the savior of Qi State, at the gate of the city, together with the Emperor Qi and many important ministers.
According to the original plan, they should have feasted Lu Qing next as a thanksgiving. At the same time, during the banquet, I had to discuss with Lu Qing what to do next.
Now everyone knows that the person who is really in charge of the Yan Kingdom is no longer the Yunxiao Sect, but their Lu family. This time, Lu Qing came to aid the Qi State, although he did not want to expand the evil realm of Dongyang City to the point where it was difficult to deal with and avoid it from evolving into a crisis of annihilation, but in general, the Qi State was still the first to bear the brunt of this catastrophe. Moreover, in the war of words for a long time before, Wei and Yan both threw the pot on them, believing that the birth of this crisis was inseparable from their Qi State.
To tell the truth, the country of Qi is up and down, but I really hate Cui Zaiwen.
But so what? At present, their national strength is weakening, and there are no top masters in charge, so they naturally suffer a big loss in state-to-state diplomacy.
What's more, Dongyang City is within the Qi Kingdom, and the person who caused this disaster is the ruler of their Great Qi. This black cauldron can't run away.
It is precisely because of this that after the Qi State heard about the catastrophic incident in Dongyang City and was solved by Lu Qing, they were already ready to bleed once.
Of course, they knew that a person like Lu Qing, who could almost be regarded as the number one master in the world, probably didn't have much time to get entangled in all kinds of small details with them. They just wanted to use this banquet to make Lu Qing's impression of Qi Guo better, and then roughly set a direction.
As for the follow-up more specific negotiations, it will definitely have to be handed over to the people below.
But no one expected that in the follow-up banquet, Lu Qing took the initiative to ask for a small exchange with Emperor Qi and a few two or three important ministers.
Until today, people like Yang Zunhuan and them, who can be regarded as high-level in the Qi State, but have not reached the level of the top few people, and they all think that they are just discussing what kind of compensation the Qi State wants to give to the Yan State after the Dongyang City incident, as the price of Lu Qing's personal action.
However, when Yang Zunhuan received the invitation, today, he came to the embassy and met with Lu Qing, and after hearing the news, he felt like he had been struck by lightning.
This news is too shocking:
When the Emperor of Qi was about to abdicate four days later, he would be honored as the Emperor of Qi, and his fourth daughter, Kong Anyang, would succeed him as the Empress of Qi.
Moreover, Kong Anyang will marry Lu Chaohe, and at that time, Lu Chaohe will share the crown of Great Qi with Kong Anyang.
This wave of operations...... Yang Zunhuan was stunned.
The Empress is not too uncommon in the cultivation world. Not to mention other places, they are Qi country, and in the records of history, there have been six empresses.
The cultivation world, after all, is still respected by personal strength. In the practice of the path of immortals, there is hardly a particularly significant difference between men and women.
And in this way, among some Xiuzhen forces, it is not inconceivable to choose women as the leaders of the forces.
Although the succession to the throne is generally dominated by male descendants, if there are outstanding female descendants, they are usually not excluded because of their gender.
But the empress succeeds to the throne is nothing, although the matter of the emperor is rare, but it is barely acceptable, after all, there is a precedent, but ......
What the hell is sharing the throne?
The throne is also something that can be shared?
The entire Nine Great Immortal Kingdoms, in such a long history, had never heard of such a thing.
This operation is too sassy.
Moreover, generally speaking, in history, whether it is the Qi State or other countries, although there have been empresses, there have never been two emperors. The wife of the emperor was called the empress, and the husband of the empress was usually titled prince.
But according to Lu Qing's meaning, Lu Chaohe, as the husband of Kong Anyang, the empress, is not treated as a prince, but with the title of 'emperor'.
How can there be two masters in one country?
Of course, Yang Zunhuan can realize what the meaning behind this operation is - the Lu clan wants to annex the Qi State.
It was not the Yan State that wanted to annex the Qi State, but the Lu Clan.
If this matter comes true, after Lu Chaohe married Kong Anyang, although Kong Anyang has the title of empress on his head, I am afraid that no one will think that Kong Anyang is the one who makes the decision.
What's more, according to Lu Qing, in the first twenty years, the Supreme Elder of the Yunxiao Sect, Patriarch Weiyun, would also come to the Qi State as an 'advisor' to sit in Jidu and protect the three emperors of the Qi State at that time - the Taishang Emperor, the Empress, and the Emperor.
With the current domestic situation of Qi State, as soon as Wei Yun came, he brought a more elite Yan State monk to fill the façade, basically up and down Qi State, big and small families, all had to be honest and obedient.
When the time comes, within the Qi country, the Lu family has the reputation and strength here, so what else is there to say?
What's more, Lu Qing's words, I'm afraid that seeing people is not just himself. Major families, even some second- and third-tier families, should meet him.
After Yang Zunhuan returned home with a heavy heart, he immediately sent his henchmen to find out the news.
At the same time, he himself shut himself up in his study, pondering the matter.
The family, if you want to say how loyal they are to the Kong clan of the Great Qi royal family, it may not be - at least not their Yang clan. Relatively speaking, who is the emperor above is not much different for him, anyway, it is not their turn to be the Yang family.
Of course, it is not excluded that there are people who are loyal to the monarch, but Yang Zunhuan estimates that most of the so-called loyal people should be personal behaviors. Those families in the country, who doesn't know whose ass?
The most important thing is that after changing this emperor, will the Yang family be treated better than before?
From Lu Qing's mouth just now, although he didn't get any specific promises, there were some things vaguely that made him quite excited.
What's more, even if they oppose it, they can't do it!
Thinking about it, Yang Zunhuan's own intention is biased towards supporting the future 'Double Emperor Model'.
