Chapter 163 The king retreats from the gods and gathers the princes
On the other side, the Land of Relic.
"Have you heard? The king was destroyed in a fire, and even the king died in the fire!"
"What's more, not only is the king dead, but I heard that even the inheritance treasure of the royal family has been lost. ”
"Yes, I've heard about it too, and because of the loss of the inheritance treasure, the royal family has lost its personality and has been overthrown by many ministers and nobles!"
......
Ten days have passed since the barbarians invaded the royal city, and many news have already spread on the land, some of which are true and some are false, and there is no lack of sensationalism.
In the past, at such times, there would inevitably be officials in charge of public security in the city to come out and reprimand, but now even those nobles and officials don't know the specific situation of the royal capital, and they don't know the bottom of their hearts, where do they still have the heart to pay attention to the discussions of the people in the city and the people in the field?
In addition, in the era of the Great Fall, because of the traffic, the news was blocked, and after the movement of the barbarians was transmitted, it didn't take long for the news of the destruction of the king's capital, and then there were many rumors of truth and falsehood, fiction and reality, so many people chose to wait and see.
Moreover, the princes around them also tensed their nerves and sent their own spies to find out the specific situation of the royal capital.
In fact, the destruction of the royal capital is not uncommon in history, even the Great Fall has had two similar experiences, among which there is also a Great Fall King who chose to move the capital, that is, to the location of the current royal capital.
However, at that time, the destruction of the royal capital was not accompanied by the fall of the Great Fall King, but represented the martial arts who would rather die than retreat, and in the end, it was the Great Fall King who led the army and thwarted the enemy, and both times after recuperating for a while, launched a counterattack and revenge against the enemy.
Only this time the situation was different, because many princes realized that this may be a turning point in the decline of royal power, the prestige of the royal court. Maybe after this incident, it will decline rapidly.
This also creates an opportunity for their rise -
There is never a shortage of wars between the princes, but because there is a royal family in the middle, they all need to be restrained, otherwise once the royal court launches a crusade, it will immediately be an enemy from all sides, and there were once two quite powerful vassal states, which declined because of this, and finally annihilated in the long river of history.
However, if the prestige of the royal court declines. No one takes the royal family seriously, and of course the situation has changed.
Of course, the current princes, they haven't thought so far, but most of the princes, especially the princes who originally rose from the dragon, mostly hope that the rumored news of the death of the Great Fallen King is true, and the best news of the loss of the emperor's sword is also true.
In this way, they will undoubtedly be able to get rid of the royal shackles as they wish. At this time, the princes did not have much intention of replacing them, after all, after the establishment of the Great Fall, there was a reason for the temple to spread supreme. The princes of the four directions bathed in it, and many rules had been established and obeyed by all, and it was like a net.
For those who have power and power. It's not like following the rules, and even a lot of times, all the people who make up this net. They are not willing to obey, but when someone is openly raising the banner and wants to violate the rules, others will attack them en masse.
As a result, many ambitious princes, under the balance of each other, made the rules firm.
However, there is a limit to this firmness.
Soon after, as new news arrived, rumors of the death of the Great Fall King were finally confirmed, but strangely enough, he did not die in the onslaught of the barbarians, but at the hands of a rebel general.
It's just that there is no clear explanation of the royal family's inheritance treasure.
After some time, the chaos in the royal capital finally settled, and the nineteenth son of the first king ascended the throne and became the new Great Fall King, but it was the two ruling princes who really upheld the government, and the power of these two, with the support of many martial nobles, almost overnight, mastered the administrative power of the dynasty, and the power was extremely inflated.
Half a month later, the two archons established a formal ruling cabinet, and the internal members were many respected martial nobles, and many relatives sent by the border princes.
All of a sudden, the Great Fallen Dynasty was completely mastered by many nobles and princes, but on the contrary, the temple that originally mastered a lot of power contracted its power under the leadership of the Great Commander.
Originally, after the many nobles grasped the power, the power of the temple could be said to be bright for a while, and seeing that in the situation of declining royal power, the next situation should be the struggle and struggle between the two sides in the dynasty.
But at this critical moment, the temple took the initiative to retreat and gave all the power of the dynasty to the ruling cabinet, which is incomprehensible, but the principal of the ruling cabinet could not push out the benefits sent to the door, so he naturally laughed at it.
At this point, the Great Fall Dynasty entered a situation where the real ruling chief and the aristocratic elders participated in politics, and the royal power was gradually hollowed out.
Because it is a combination and represents the nobles all over the Great Fall, in many matters, the decisions of the ruling cabinet are universal and compromised, and in a certain way, they play the role of a lubricant, so that the undercurrent in the dynasty has a tendency to subside.
On the other hand, in the ruling cabinet, there is room for competition between nobles and princes for the control of administrative power, and they also have the responsibility of mutual supervision.
It didn't take long for the Great Fall Dynasty to transition from a simple alliance of agricultural civilizations to a military alliance, and gradually reflected the characteristics of war opportunities, and many princes took the initiative to provoke wars, marched in all directions, and gradually expanded the legal territory of the Great Fall.
The entire Great Fall Dynasty, after experiencing several barbarian invasions, although the losses were not small, but it was also like being reborn from the ashes, and began to embark on a new path, and it was full of vitality.
It's just that......
"Any kind of system, with the circumstances of the world, must be constantly changed and improved, at present this ruling cabinet by the decline of the royal power and the retreat of the divine power of the opportunity to rise, and burst out of great power, but this structure is not foolproof, even due to the lack of many conditions, but also subject to the level of technology and productivity, the foreseeable future, will inevitably cause drastic changes, but these things, after all, are the evolution of humanity here......"
In the sky above the entire dynasty, a grand will slowly floated, and it was Qiu Yan's heart demon body, its shape had obviously changed, and the attributes of the heavenly demons in it were completely stimulated, and the characteristics of the heavenly demons were also squeezed dry, and the form that appeared almost enveloped the entire Great Fall Dynasty in it!
Even, even the luck that circulated within the dynasty was affected.
However, the heart demon body did not interfere too much, although his thoughts were concerned about the qi luck veins on the earth, but he did not go deep into it again, because at the moment his purpose was temporarily completed, it was not an urgent need for qi luck, if he continued to absorb it, although it was a follow-up trend, it would also affect the development of this world, on the other hand, there were some details that Qiu Yan paid attention to.
"There seems to be a connection between the luck of this relict land and the terrifying will that wants to be revived, which can also be seen from the words of the previous god, but now I don't know enough about the will to recover, and it is very likely to be self-defeating to stop it, it is better to wait and see what happens, and this time the time is almost up. ”
This time, Qiu Yan entered the place of reliction, and he did a lot of things, and the impact was far-reaching, and even advanced the turning point of the fate of the Great Fall Dynasty - this time the changes of the Great Fall Dynasty, Qiu Yan's chess pieces, played a lot of roles in the whole change, but it can only be regarded as a catalyst, and it did not really affect the historical trend, but only detonated the trend in advance.
However, this kind of catalysis also brings a lot of inertia, and a lot of luck is intercepted by Qiu Yan, which also consumes the power of the fusion of the heart demon body and this world, and it begins to be rejected, and it is time to leave.
"It's just that before leaving, there is still some preparation after all, although the god who originally controlled the divine power of the dynasty retreated, but he was obviously not reconciled, he then shrank the power of the temple, and I don't know what the next step is, what is the layout of the so-called Zhili?"
..................
"Brother Liyuan, this time you summoned us here in order to form this so-called Supreme Council?"
On the other side, in a vast and magnificent hall, several people were gathered here, each sitting on a seat, each with a different momentum, but all different from ordinary people.
Sitting in the center is a man dressed in silk, if anyone is here, he should be able to recognize him, it is the same person who used to accompany the Great Fall King to the temple commander.
The other four are different.
One of them was a man covered in flames, with the mark of a winged spell on his forehead;
There was also a woman, who did not look like a big man in her clothes, with a delicate face and long fiery red hair;
There was also an old man, dressed in plain clothes, with electric flashes on his body from time to time, his eyes closed, his breath was weak, as if he would be in the ground at any moment;
The last person was a seemingly young man, dressed in a gray linen robe, and he would have been surprised if he had been present, because this person was the taster who had suddenly said goodbye!
These five people, sitting in the hall, do not seem to be empty in the hall, but each supports one side with momentum, and there is a faint taste of opposition and confrontation.
And it was the man who was wrapped in flames, his face was angular, his body was as tough as marble, and his words were sonorous and powerful, and as soon as he spoke, he echoed repeatedly in the temple.
"Brother Shenniao, I will gather you today in order to save the common people!" (To be continued......)
