When the Emperor of Chu said, "I have little virtue," it was the emperor who sinned against himself.
Sanfenxianglou fled to Chu. It was rumored that the Chu court confiscated private property to the public treasury to replenish the declining power of the country. The merchants in the territory were afraid after hearing the news, and fled in large numbers... They never heard that the emperor had sinned against himself.
He only reduced business taxes, consolidated national laws, met businessmen personally, and soothed people's hearts.
When the country's system was reformed, many families were dissatisfied. Mr. Xun cried in the Ancestral Temple, and the latter continued to scold him when he drank. There was considerable turmoil in the government and the public... It was not heard that the emperor had sinned against himself.
He just drove to the Ancestral Temple to see the elders, laughed when he heard about the announcement, and then continued to push forward the government and carried out his plans. It was okay for the elders to scold him or to cry at the Ancestral Temple, but if he really wanted to stop the New Deal, he would just raise his hand and slash.
The valley was defeated, the people were panicked, the government and the public were frightened... and they did not hear that the emperor had sinned against himself.
He just prepared his troops and prepared for the next war.
Today's Emperor Chu is a man who never admits his mistakes.
Today, he killed the transcendent Gongsun Xi with his sword and established supreme martial arts. However, he committed suicide because of the death of Zhuge Yixian.
You can truly see the sadness.
As the last iconic figure in the era of Xiong Yizhen, Taizu of Chu, the fall of Zhuge Yixian seemed to mean a real turning point in history. At this time, the New Deal was in full swing, which was the "disadvantage of the founding of the country" in Chu today.
But saying goodbye to the past is often accompanied by pain.
Douzhao built a bridge at Juedian under Gongsun Xi's plan. As soon as he set foot on Juedian, he was kidnapped by Gongsun Xi.
The consciousnesses of Jiang Wang and Dou Zhao were mixed in the Santu Bridge and were easily moved by Gongsun Xi. The former's real body was in the Fallen Immortal Forest, while the latter reached the pinnacle of his achievements in the Great Chu Palace.
If Gongsun Xi wants to completely swallow these two supreme statues and swallow the Yin-Yang True Pill, the Meteor Immortal Forest is the inevitable place to stay.
And Xiong Ji, with the dignity of the overlord emperor, lurked in Douzhao's daydream, and stabbed him through the throat with a sword. This was simply destiny!
Did Zhuge Yixian calculate this?
Did he take advantage of the relationship between Zuo Xiao and Jiang Wang and not care about Jiang Wang's life?
There will never be an answer.
But he gave a relatively reasonable explanation. He said that he could not capture the methods of the transcendent. He said that he could not calculate them all, but he had made sufficient preparations in all aspects.
Jiang Wang is indeed still alive now.
Zuo Xiao could no longer complain.
Zhuge Yixian was also his elder, and he was also a Chu person whom Zhuge Yixian protected.
At such a moment, he just held the flag, lowered his head slightly, and paid tribute to this legendary star wizard as a great Chu soldier.
Duke Wu Zhaochang of An State and Prince Xiong Zidu of Da Chu both wore armor and behaved in the same manner.
Master Fanshijue of Dachu State put his palms together and chanted the Purana Sutra in a low voice. It was not that he had any special feelings for Zhuge Yi. To be honest, he was still a little confused until now. He didn't know why he suddenly started fighting.
, how come after the wave of clouds and brilliance turned around, a transcendent person suddenly died, and why did Zhuge Yixian also die...
It's just that when an old man who served the country all his life passed away, he always hoped that he would rest in peace.
He simply hopes that all sentient beings will not suffer. If this wish cannot be realized, then at least junior brother will not suffer.
After the stars faded out, the sky became clear again and it started to rain. Occasionally, the clouds rolled and thunder rolled, and the roar gradually came and went away.
Since then, the secrets of heaven have been confused and unfathomable.
Beyond death, the sun and moon fade away, and heaven and earth pay homage to it.
No matter how Gongsun Xi died in the end and how dishonored he was, the realm he had reached and the power he had were worthy of a tsunami of heavenly secrets and a violent surge of the sun and moon.
Zhuge Yi died first, and only the stars in Zhanghua Terrace rippled slightly. Of course, he also "greatly benefited the heavens". He was devoted to Chu when he was alive, and to heaven and earth after his death. And the memory of him in the hearts of people must be more than forty years old.
nine days.
The Emperor of Chu said that he was "poor in virtue", and everyone had his or her own sorrow. After a moment of recollection, he held the Red Phoenix Emperor Sword in his hand and suddenly said: "Prince! Come closer!"
Xiong Zidu, wearing all his armor, took a few steps and half-knelt in front of the king: "General, please obey your order!"
Except when he was a prisoner, this guy didn't look like a prisoner. At other times, he looked decent no matter what he did. He was meticulous in building the city, and he enforced orders and prohibitions when wearing armor. He looked like a prince when he put on a dress, but he looked like an idler when his hair was pulled down.
The emperor looked at him and slowly raised the Red Phoenix Emperor Sword.
The atmosphere in the Meteor Immortal Forest was solemn.
Xiong Zidu had been raising him for many years, and upon his release from prison, he accepted the title of crown prince. Everyone could see that the Emperor of Chu had the intention of handing him over to the world.
But today, Emperor Chu has established this unparalleled martial arts, which is so powerful that the world has been strengthened. The difficulties in the past have been cut away!
It can be said that no one inside or outside the empire can oppose his will. Is he still willing to let go of his supreme authority?
If the emperor is unwilling to delegate power, the prince will be his biggest opponent.
This sword of the emperor can cut down the world, cut off noble names, and the life, death, honor and disgrace of ministers can all be determined by his thoughts. Whether you are a civil servant, a military general, a clan member, or a god, you are a real person in this world, and you are at the top of your game!
Xiong Zidu half-knelt there, motionless, maintaining a posture of obeying orders.
He is both a minister and a son.
I will accept both honor and disgrace, and enjoy life and death.
In fact, time did not pass very long, but it felt like it was really long.
As people watched, Emperor Chu put the Red Phoenix Emperor Sword on Xiong Zidu's shoulder.
The emperor stands while the prince kneels, and the emperor's sword falls on the shoulder of the armor. This is undoubtedly a transmission of power and an expression of the delivery of glory!
If the prince has merit for what happened today, then he can be credited with it. His contribution to the preparation of the army in the early stage, and his contribution to assisting in the strangulation of the transcendent Gongsun Xi, are all worthy of recognition. As long as he is in Zhanghuatai,
Participating in the pursuit of the knowledge of famous scholars can be regarded as helping to crucify Gongsun Xi! Not to mention that the prince actually brought an army and was present throughout the process.
It's just that Xiong Zidu is now the prince of Chu. How much more reward can the emperor give to him for showing such solemnity?
The eyes of Zuo Xiao and Wu Zhaochang became extremely solemn. Even Huang Weizhen, who was about to leave, temporarily held his ground. To be more precise, he himself had gone to see his daughter, but he left a pair of eyes here.
.
And Xiong Zidu himself... raised his head in shock!
The Emperor of Chu was wearing a red dragon robe, standing there unusually tall and tall, as if it were the highest mountain in Southern Chu. His arm holding the sword was also straight, and he looked directly at the prince, and said like this: "The sage said, accept the honor of the country."
To be filthy is to be called the lord of the country. To accept the ominous omen of the country is to be called the king of the world. In the battle in the river valley, the younger generation was imprisoned for ten years, and it was for me that I suffered. To receive the filth of the country first is to bear the ominousness, and I can certainly bear the responsibility of the country. I have paid for the world.
With your heart, you have the virtue to inherit the world, and the people of Chu know this."
He sighed softly: "I originally planned to carry the sword for another ten years, to cut thorns in my palms and cut acres of land with my feet... But when the storm comes, how can I fight against the court? Life is dark, and I can only bear it on my own. I have lost the ambition of Liuhe.
, To choose mountains and rivers for the prince is nothing more than a complete courtesy, sooner or later. My son's wings have matured, and my mountains and rivers have spread. I have ruled the world for ten years, but I only see the old age and love. It is better to let go as soon as possible, so as not to create a gap between the flesh and blood and the resentment of the government and the public.
"
The Emperor of Chu wants to pass the throne to the Crown Prince today!
At an important moment in his life when he established his supreme great cause!
He thinks that everything he can do has been done and everything he can accomplish has been accomplished, so he will quickly stand up and hand over the state's control.
This emperor is really a bit of a charlatan and a bit willful!
Which family does not pass on the throne with great ceremony, does not hold a grand ceremony, does not appeal to the ancestors, does not communicate to the ministers, does not negotiate with many parties, and repeatedly cedes power?
Just in the Fallen Immortal Forest, with the Emperor Sword, was this supreme power in this world just given to me?
"Why did my father say this?!" Xiong Zidu knelt down on both feet, took two small steps in the air, and said with a loud voice: "You are the Emperor Dezhao, and your achievements are greater than those of the previous emperors. You can kill those who are transcendent.
Yongding Yuxian Forest, overthrowing old evils into new policies, slaughtering old classics into new laws, even if Taizu cannot reach it! If you hold the cadres and sit on the great treasures, and carry sharp weapons as the vanguard, then the guests from all directions will be subdued, the world will be unified, and the Liuhe will be unified
It was only you who could have accomplished this! Who in the world has any resentment? Who says this, who dares to have this intention?!"
"Prince Yan Hong has several mistakes."
The Emperor of Chu looked at him: "The Fallen Immortal Forest has not yet been decided, and will be decided in the hands of the new emperor. Today's plan to escape, cut off the old scriptures, and conquer the world is all the prince's plan. He has been in prison for ten years and has worked hard for the country. Once he is released from prison,
I vowed to save the common people! I went into the Fallen Immortal Forest first to build a majestic city and waited, attracting tens of thousands of troops to gather troops to kill and transcend——"
The emperor's eyes swept over Zuo Xiao and Wu Zhaochang, and then back to the prince: "Both princes can attest to this. They are good ministers, pillars of the country, and your elders. Prince, you have no responsibility for the world.
Disaster."
"Father!!" Xiong Zidu held the sword on his shoulder for a moment and looked up at the emperor.
This was indeed a scene he had never imagined, a beautiful beginning that he could never have dreamed of. However, he was not happy, and was even a little angry in his shock: "This is the great cause of this king and father, and his lifelong reputation! My son and minister are actually...
What kind of pigs and dogs can endure to steal fame and merit?!"
Chu Tianzi just looked at him silently, until he slowly loosened his grip on the sword's edge, and the sword pressed on his shoulder, sinking a little more, and then he said slowly: "I'll give it to you."
It's yours. Including this world, this sword, and your so-called gong - you just need to catch it and move forward. The Holy Emperor will accept nothing, unless you can't bear it."
As he spoke, the emperor loosened his fingers, and the Red Phoenix Emperor Sword fell from Xiong Zidu's shoulder.
It missed Xiong Zidu's armor and swooped down. It was the authority of the world. It passed by the dusk, which was suddenly sunny and rainy. It fell all the way without looking back at all. Falling is its only purpose, so it only measures people's thinking...
When he was finally about to fall off the knee line, Xiong Zidu caught him in his palm!
The prince of Dachu did not hold a handle, but only used his flesh to control the sword. The handle was red phoenix, and he still accepted his orders and authority when holding the sword, but he still had some will of his own, because this imperial sword
The sword is in his palm after all!
He was still kneeling there, raising his head and looking at Emperor Chu's eyes that were hanging down from his crown of peace - those extremely noble and supreme eyes.
Many times he looked up like this, kneeling, standing, in front of His Majesty's knees, and he had grown from a young boy to what he is now.
So many things have changed, but it seems that only these eyes will always remain unpredictable and majestic.
Xiong Zidu said slowly: "Your father has the ability to navigate the world, and he has made great achievements in the past generations, but he leaves the world to the future. My sons and ministers are weak in virtue, so I reluctantly take care of them. Your father has high hopes for your sons and ministers, but your sons and ministers must not do anything.
The king and father are inspired by a single thought. If the sons and ministers behave like the king and father, how can they be like the king and father? Therefore, some things will be accepted and some things will not be tolerated."
"Accepting the stain of the country, accepting the ominousness of the country, accepting the expectations of the world, accepting the burden of the common people, accepting the glory of the ancestors, accepting the trauma of the past generations——"
The Prince of Dachu held the blade of the sword with one hand and the hilt with the other. He knelt like this and raised the Red Phoenix Emperor Sword respectfully above his head: "Gold plating is not real gold."
"Being virtuous without virtue, merit without merit, it is unbearable!"
The inheritance of the throne is a matter for the world, but it is also a family matter for the father and son.
Everyone in the room was silent.
Emperor Chu suddenly opened his mouth to pass on the throne, which was like child's play. This was of course the final test question for Xiong Zidu.
And the prince's answer sheet was not just for the emperor to see.
The examiners also included two princes, a Shanhai Daoist who was born in the Chu region, the Chu army present, the towering Zhanghua Terrace... and even Zhuge Yixian's spirit in heaven.
After the Emperor Chu sighed with emotion, he wanted to pass it on to the Star Witch Spirit.
Now he heard the prince's answer, every word was clear.
He looked deeply at Xiong Zidu: "The king's power is Kuang Yunei. The world is so big that it cannot use all its strengths. Prince, you choose a difficult path."
"If you want to succeed in the past and present, you must break through the obstacles of the past and the present. Is the road to the emperor of Liuhe a smooth road?" Xiong Zidu responded generously, and then turned his generous mood into a smile: "Father, this is what I originally planned to do.
Said. Probably in the history books, such a dialogue is more heroic."
He looked up to the emperor and made no secret of a son's strong feelings for his father.
"But it's really shameful for me to be good and behave at a low price."
He almost had tears in his eyes: "Since ancient times, there is no one who has magnified treasures like my father. He has cut down the dangerous passes of the ages, eliminated the hidden worries of hundreds of generations, and paid for them with the foundation of Liuhe. Parents plan for their children, and kings plan for their subjects. They will do their best to achieve this.
As a son and a minister, I really have nothing to ask for advice from. I only hope that my father will be able to trust me in this matter. I only hope that my emperor will be virtuous for a long time to come!"
Xiong Ji was silent for a moment, then he opened his five fingers and placed them flat on the face of the Red Phoenix Sword, as if caressing the prince's forehead across the sword. At this moment, his eyes were very complicated: "In that case, I have taken away my achievements.
You can take over my empire."
"Father!" Xiong Zidu said sincerely: "My son is young and weak, and he still needs my father——"
"Okay! Don't play the trick of saying three words and receiving three words!" Xiong Ji flicked his sleeves and left Xiong Zidu there: "These are all my own family members. They are so coquettish that they are a joke!"
Xiong Zidu held the Emperor Sword in his hand and didn't know what to say for a moment.
He often does amazing things, always surprising others. But as his father, he can always give him some surprises...of course there are also scares.
Are you really just...not being polite?
At this time, Xiong Ji took off his flat crown again and squatted down. He hadn't squatted down to look at his son like this for a long time, but he didn't say anything. He just put the crown squarely on Xiong Ji.
Consult your head.
The beads swayed gently, swirling light and shadow, flowing on the prince's facial features. It seemed that he had not recovered yet, but he suddenly saw a bit of unpredictable majesty.
Xiong Ji grinned, raised his hand and patted his shoulder, then stood up. As he walked out, he casually pulled off his dragon robe, and the glory and majesty of the past turned into red clouds on the horizon.
The sun and the moon are fading, and it is sunny and rainy. It is just a brilliant dusk at this moment.
He just wore a thin undershirt and walked away alone——
"Go west and defeat the river valley, leaving millions of Chu households."
"To revolutionize the government of the country and kill the old heroes will harm the virtue of Taizu."
"I am the emperor of a country, but if I do something like an assassin, it will seriously harm the country's dignity! I can only harm the country by killing one evildoer, so how can I benefit the world?"
"It's time to go!"
There was a loud sound that gradually dispersed into the sky.
In the spring of 3930 in the Dao calendar, Xiong Ji, the emperor of Chu, passed the throne to the crown prince in the Yuxian Forest. The Duke of Huai, Zuo Xiao, and the Duke of An, Wu Zhaochang, were testified by the state master Fan Shijue. At that time, there were three armies in line, Zhang Huatai
Inherited.
After a lifetime of achievements, he became famous after abdicating the throne, and his posthumous title in the temple was "Emperor Lie Zongwu".
