Qianyuan thirty-three years.

At the beginning of the first month of this year.

Donghu rebelled in Wanyan Jin Kingdom, and Daqian sent troops to the north for a four-pronged expedition.

The war lasted for several months and ended with Donghu being pacified and Liaodong recaptured, with both sides having a victory or defeat.

In May of this year.

Daqian cut off the supply of military rations to the Zhenbei Army in order to force the Zhenbei Army to spontaneously disarm.

This June.

The "Sea Alliance" between the three vassal kings was secretly signed. Countless grains were secretly transported from the sea to the North, and many weapons and horses were secretly transported from the North to the South.

At the end of the month, Liaodong was also officially placed under the command of King Zhenbei.

September of this year.

A large number of new scholars served as officials of the Great Cadre.

Emperor Zhao Purui of Daqian Dynasty promoted dozens of officials in an unusual manner, and later, Zhang Zheng, the "Mr. Zhang San" who was the minister of punishment at the time, was appointed as the new prime minister.

The position of Prime Minister of Daqian has been vacant for more than a year, and now there is a new one.

As an official, Zhang Zheng has always been honest and upright. He also had a personal friendship with the previous prime minister, Qin Xiang, and shared the same political views.

He also guarded the laws of Daqian all year round and provided help for countless imperial examinations and military examinations. He was deeply respected by officials and loved by the people.

After Zhang Zheng became the prime minister, he followed the "Xiao rules and Cao Sui", implemented the reform measures of Qin Prime Minister to the end, and vigorously rectified all kinds of extravagant and unhealthy trends in Daqian officialdom.

For a time, the government and the public were clean and honest, and officials were honest.

The prosperous age of the Great Qian Dynasty once reached a new peak.

This is November of this year.

Emperor Zhao Purui of Daqian wanted to reorganize the direct army of Daqian.

For a time, many bad things such as over-staffed officials and empty pay in the army began to be dealt with one by one.

Promoted many young generals.

Following the example of the Zhenbei Army, the military merit system was re-established, the general merit was linked to the title, and an eighteen-level military merit system was established.

Prepare your troops and prepare for war.

Daqian's four frontier troops suddenly became as powerful as a rainbow.

The end of this year.

Princess Zhao Lingrui of Zhenbei was diagnosed by the palace doctor as being several months pregnant.

The following year, Zhenbei Princess Zhao Lingrui gave birth to the eldest son of Zhenbei King, Yan Zheng, and established him as the heir apparent.

…

Time passes.

The thirty-fourth year of Qianyuan.

This year is a year of good harvest and peace for the people.

This year is also known as the most bloody year in the world.

This year was also recorded by countless later historians as "the year when the Daqian Dynasty turned from prosperity to decline."

Since the sudden death of Penglai Pavilion boss last year and the change of pavilion master in Donghai Penglai, there has been no peace in the world.

The Wulin Alliance declined.

Emei, Four Seasons Palace and other forces successively withdrew from the Wulin Alliance and established their own businesses.

The demonic sect disappeared and ceased to exist.

The Shadow Sect of the Western Regions continues to expand its influence on the Central Plains.

The most shocking thing is that the four major Jianghu sects, including Baihua Valley, Iron Blood Sect, Blood Spirit Sect, and Corpse Immortal Sect, were massacred one after another, and their blood flowed into rivers, and their involvement was widespread.

Among these four major sects, there are good and evil, but they all ended up in the same miserable situation.

Even back then, when the Wulin Alliance fought against the Demon Sect, and countless masters died mysteriously in Guangmingding, it was just a grudge between the members of the Demon Sect and the knights of the Wulin Alliance, and there was no longer such widespread killings.

Above the rivers and lakes, countless fears filled the air for a time.

The knights with good intentions investigated and found that the clues behind the collapse of these four major sects seemed to be vaguely related to King Zhenbei.

The terrifying reputation of the young King of Zhenbei spread more and more widely in the world, and became more and more popular.

Some knights even feel that there seems to be a huge conspiracy hidden in it...

Some knights also discovered through investigation that after the Xiyi Corpse Immortal Sect was destroyed, many methods of refining corpses and storing corpse soldiers within the sect fell into the hands of King Ping Xi's forces.

As for the destruction of the Baiyue Blood Spirit Sect, it seems that the influence of King Dingnan was involved.

The three vassal kings secretly colluded.

There are faint signs of surfacing.

…

The thirty-fourth year of Qianyuan.

Mid October.

After nearly a year of military reform and retraining, Emperor Daqian had several large-scale elite armies in his hands.

Zhao Purui issued the "Tweening Order", intending to take action against San Francisco.

The Tie En Order, as its name suggests, requires the vassal king to distribute the fiefdom's army to each of his heirs, establish a separate portal, and break it into pieces, so that it can no longer resist the central dynasty.

There is no doubt that this move was the old emperor's preparation to take back the power he had given him from the hands of San Francisco.

The three vassal kings accepted this order.

However, there has been no clear response yet.

For a time, under the peaceful and prosperous times, undercurrents surged.

…

Daqian Dynasty.

The thirty-fourth year of Qianyuan.

Late October.

Facing the mountain of government affairs, the old emperor Zhao Purui gradually felt exhausted and exhausted.

He gave Prince Zhao Lingfeng the task of supervising the country, and began to gradually delegate more of the power that he had firmly grasped to Prince Zhao Lingfeng and Prime Minister Zhang Zheng.

In early November of the same year.

The old emperor Zhao Purui suddenly fell seriously ill and fell into a coma less than a month after he had just issued a "favor order" to San Francisco.

The imperial doctors in the Jinling Palace conducted many rounds of consultations.

Every imperial doctor actually already has a rough result in mind.

But none of the imperial doctors dared to speak out, and they all declined by saying that "their medical skills were not good enough and they could not see the cause of the disease."

Finally, Yao Yingran, the medical sage from Yaowang Valley, was invited to come to Jinling in person.

Yao Yingran checked the old emperor's pulse three times and received thirty thousand taels of gold.

Then, Yao Yingran said——

"It's hopeless, just bury it."

At that moment, everyone present, including the Prince Zhao Lingfeng, who was known for his kindness and kindness, all turned pale for a moment.

Prince Yu Zhao Lingrui even wanted to personally kill this old man who took money for nothing and did not do practical things.

Prince Zhao Lingfeng stopped Prince Yu in time.

He slightly bowed his hand to the medical sage Yao Yingran and respectfully asked what the cause of His Majesty's illness was.

When Yao Yingran saw that the prince Zhao Lingfeng was so polite, he opened his mouth to explain -

"Your Majesty, you have been busy with government affairs for many years and have been overworked. Your life span has expired. There is no disease, and there is no medicine to save you."

"...His Majesty is over seventy years old, almost eighty years old, and he has come to the end of his life."

Even the medical sage of Yaowang Valley said there was no cure.

For a moment, silence enveloped the entire Yangxin Hall.

Prince Zhao Lingfeng was also speechless for a moment.

He recalled the life of his father, who was revered as the "Great Qian Sheng Emperor".

He ascended the throne through the "battle to seize the direct descendants" when he was over 10 years old, stabilized the imperial power, killed off the clan members, destroyed all the kingdoms, and unified the troubled times; drove out the Northern Hu, swallowed up the Eastern Yue, and subdued the four barbarians; used the family to settle down, and established the San Francisco Town Bian, under the control of the immortals, maintained the sanctity and majesty of the imperial power.

He cleverly maintained the delicate balance between the noble family and the feudal lord, and continuously deepened the power of the imperial power.
