"All dead?"

At this time, the fire in the Dou Ling Empire's palace had been completely dispersed, and among the ruins, a large group of people stood.

The one who exclaimed was Xu Sanshi's mother, Xue Lingxun. She listened to Tianyang Douluo's words in disbelief and fell into confusion.

On the side, Xu Sanshi looked at each other with the middle-aged man next to him, and the shock in his eyes was undisguised. The middle-aged man was naturally his father.

The current leader of the Xuanming Sect, Xu Qingan, is a level ninety-five super Douluo, titled Xuanming.

Because Xu Sanshi returned to the sect to shake people, a total of one Super Douluo and three Soul Douluo came in the end. Unfortunately, they arrived late, and when they arrived, the matter was already over.

Tianyang Douluo said with a sad tone: "The matter has come to this, please Lingxun to take charge of the overall situation."

Xue Lingxun's body went limp and she almost fell down. Fortunately, Xu Qingan's eyesight was short and his hands quickly caught her.

Xue Lingxun leaned in Xu Qingan's arms in confusion, taking charge of the overall situation? How could he take charge of the overall situation?

All the direct male descendants of the royal family are dead, and the only remaining female descendants, some of whom are married, are still alive. However, according to the ancestral rules of the Douling Empire, women are not allowed to ascend the throne and become emperor.

Even if he ascends the throne, I'm afraid those branches of the aristocracy that hold real power will also riot. Once the empire riots, and if the Tianhun Empire happens to attack, wouldn't everything be doomed?

In the past, the Tianhun Empire was restrained by the Sun and Moon Empire and would never take action against the Dou Ling Empire, but now the Sun and Moon Empire itself is in trouble, and the situation has long since changed.

"I think the top priority is to elect a regent." Xu Qing'an interjected. He actually had no feelings for the Douling royal family, but was a little shocked when he heard the news.

Tianyang Douluo, as the chief priest of the Enshrinement Hall, has the highest qualifications, so it is naturally best for him to choose. However, the choice of the regent is more troublesome.

Others don't know it, but Tianyang Douluo knows that none of the nobles who were separated from the royal family are good. When they were nobles, they were greedy for power and money. If they become the regent or even the future emperor, they will not be able to do it.

Knowing how messy it will be, I am afraid that the lifespan of the empire will be greatly reduced by then, and I will have no more fun before other countries invade.

Thinking about it, Tianyang Douluo frowned and looked around. Suddenly, his eyes fell on a person.

Xu Sanshi happened to be looking at Tianyang Douluo, and his heart skipped a beat, I'm a good boy, I won't choose him, thinking that Xu Sanshi walked quietly and hid behind Qin Ze.

Qin Ze: "???"

"Let him take the position of regent." Tianyang Douluo finally made up his mind.

Hearing this, everyone present collectively aimed their gazes at the direction Tianyang Douluo was looking.

Qin Ze seemed to have noticed something, and quietly moved aside, revealing Xu Sanshi behind him. The latter was immediately exposed to everyone's gaze.

Xu Sanshi's face froze, he really couldn't run away.

"Sanshi?" Xu Qing'an was stunned, "Senior Tianyang, my Sanshi is not a member of the royal family, how can he serve as the regent."

Tianyang Douluo shook his head and said: "The regent is the regent and the emperor is the emperor. They cannot be confused. Besides, Sanshi also has the blood of the royal family, so it is very suitable to be the regent."

Di Yueli leaned close to Jiang Nannan's ear, covered her mouth and whispered, "You will be the regent princess from now on."

Jiang Nannan's pretty face froze, she didn't know what to say, she came over to do a task and inexplicably turned into the regent princess.

Xue Lingxun took a few glances at her son. She was willing to let her son become the regent, but the problem was the same as what her husband said. Sanshi was not a member of the royal family. This was the biggest problem. Moreover, Sanshi was still in Shilai.

It is impossible to neglect studying in the Kennei Academy and do these things.

"Sanshi, what do you think?" Tianyang Douluo must have met Xu Sanshi. Xue Lingxun took Xu Sanshi to the palace when he was a child.

In an instant, everyone's eyes fell on Xu Sanshi. Regardless of whether they supported or opposed it, it was better to listen to the decision of the person involved first.

"Aze, Sanshi doesn't really intend to be the regent." On the side, Jiang Nannan's soul power sent a message to Qin Ze.

"I don't know about this, probably not." Qin Ze doesn't know either, but if it develops according to the original work, Xu Sanshi was indeed appointed as the regent in the face of danger, but now except for the royal family, everything else is intact, Xu Sanshi

The choice of three stones may vary.

Xu Sanshi was silent for a few seconds, and finally shook his head, "Mr. Tianyang, the regent should be assigned to someone else." He didn't want to waste time arguing with civil and military officials. It would be better to practice and improve his level. Besides, he really deserves it.

, the future will not be too cool.

Hearing this, Tianyang Douluo frowned, but Xu Sanshi was the best candidate in his opinion. He had seen most of the branches of other royal families, and their strength was not worth mentioning, and they did things without any scruples.

For a while, the atmosphere fell into depression.

"Sigh." Tianyang Douluo sighed, "In this case, I can't force it, so let's temporarily trouble Lingxun to handle the state affairs."

Xue Lingxun held back the grief in her heart and showed her strong side, "Okay."

"Mr. Tianyang, I have something to say." Suddenly, Xu Sanshi glanced at Qin Ze, then seemed to have decided something, and shouted directly to Tianyang Douluo.

Everyone looked at each other, Xu Sanshi had changed his mind.

Xu Sanshi said solemnly: "I want to talk to you about this matter alone."

Hearing this, Tianyang Douluo was a little surprised, but he still agreed, "Come with me, change places and I will listen to you."

Soon, the two left the place.

"Qing'an, please stay and help me temporarily." Xue Lingxun said to Xu Qing'an.

Xu Qingan pondered for a moment, and finally nodded: "Okay."

Xue Lingxun turned around and said to the other four worshipers in the enshrining hall: "I would also like to ask the several worshipers to pay more attention to the nobles in the provinces, lest some people become impatient, especially the lords of Tianhe Province and Luo'an Province.

"

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The second worshiper nodded, "I have asked my subordinates to go to the two northern provinces to observe. If there is any trouble, I can report back at any time."

Xue Lingxun looked at Yan Shaozhe again, "Dean Yan, the royal family is suddenly in trouble today. Please wait a little longer to promote the method of self-condensing soul rings."

Yan Shaozhe said: "It doesn't matter. But I recommend promoting it as usual tomorrow. This should relieve your pressure."

Xue Lingxun is a smart person, and she guessed what Yan Shaozhe meant, "Dean Yan, do you mean to use the method of self-condensing soul rings to temporarily divert people's attention, and wait until everything is stable before announcing the royal family?"

Yan Shaozhe said gently: "Yes, the attack on the palace cannot be hidden, but no one knows what happened to the royal family members except everyone present. How many days can it be hidden for how many days?"

Xue Lingxun sighed and said to the second priest: "Then I would like to ask the second priest to arrange the promotion of the self-condensation method tomorrow morning. When things stabilize here, we will discuss how to arrange the affairs behind the royal family."

The second worshiper nodded, "Okay."

"Lingxun, the ministers and generals are here and waiting outside the palace." At this time, the fourth minister interrupted.

Mentioning them, Xue Lingxun's head got bigger, "Let them come in, it's impossible to hide this matter from them."

The four worshipers nodded, and disappeared in a flash.

Not long after, a huge group of people slowly walked up the gravel-strewn road with horrified eyes. The leader was about sixty years old, and his already wrinkled face looked even more frightened.

color.

This person is the prime minister of the Dou Ling Empire, which is roughly equivalent to the position of prime minister of Blue Star. However, because the world is different, there are some differences in some aspects. It can be roughly compared.

"Princess, what happened?" the Prime Minister said tremblingly. He is also a soul master, but his level is relatively low and he is just a soul master.

Xue Lingxun said in a deep voice: "Today was His Majesty's birthday, so I summoned the royal family members to gather together for a family banquet. As a result, when the royal family gathered together, they encountered an evil spirit master's surprise attack. The royal family..."

At the end of the sentence, Xue Lingxun couldn't talk any more.

But most of the civil and military officials were experienced, and they immediately understood what Xue Lingxun's unfinished words meant.

In an instant, all kinds of sounds of crying began to fall one after another.

Qin Ze on the side shook his head. With the strength of his mental strength, he could feel that among these officials, only a few were truly sad. Most of the others were just pretending, and some even had expressions that kept changing, as if they were in trouble.

What to think about.

Qin Ze directly remembered the faces of these people. If nothing else, according to what was shown in the TV series, these people are most likely to be traitors.

This prime minister is really sad. There is no suspicion of fraud. He seems to be a loyal minister.

After a while, the civil and military officials seemed to feel that they were done crying. They felt that they were worthy of the royal family's kindness, and finally stopped slowly.

The top priority is who will sit on the throne again. Conglong Gong is no joke.

The Prime Minister cupped his hands and said in a serious voice towards Xue Lingxun: "Princess, the country cannot live without a king for a day, and I also ask you to elect a new prince. At the same time, he announced to the whole country that from now on, the entire empire will hunt down evil souls.

Master, whoever kills you will be rewarded heavily."

Xue Lingxun said: "The crown prince can only be decided through discussion later, and I don't have a good candidate at the moment."

"Princess, I do have a recommendation." Suddenly, among the generals, a middle-aged man with unshaven beard and armor and stomach came out. He bowed respectfully, and then immediately expressed his thoughts,

"I recommend Xueyun, the lord of Yunhai Province."

But one stone stirred up a thousand waves, and soon after, several more people introduced their own recommended candidates.

"I recommend Xue Leng, the lord of Tianhe Province."

Just when Xue Lingxun frowned and was about to scold the officials for acting like Conglong heroes, the deputy prime minister of the Douling Empire spoke.

In an instant, in addition to the civil and military officials, several people from Shrek Academy, several people from Xuanming Sect, several people from the Consecration Hall, and Xue Lingxun all raised their eyebrows.

The atmosphere became inexplicably weird.

The deputy prime minister didn't notice anything was wrong and continued to praise Xue Leng's character.

Xue Lingxun's eyes sharpened suddenly. With Qin Ze's reminder, Xue Lingxun was now extremely sensitive to Xue Leng. Among all the nobles, Tianhe Province was the strongest, and Xue Leng was definitely the most powerful.

The strongest contender for the throne.

"You are all here, so that's good. I would like to announce that San Shi will temporarily take over the position of regent."

At this moment, a gentle voice came, and everyone looked around, only to see Tianyang Douluo and Xu Sanshi walking back.
