Chapter 590 The Shadow of the World Lord? Ten years of development!
The Dali Dynasty had no choice but to swallow this anger.
"I'll give you a slap in exchange for ten years of development time." These were the words left by the assassin, although the old emperor didn't fully understand what they meant.
But the general meaning is that he knows that this person has bad intentions and hopes that chaos will arise in Dali. He hopes that chaos will occur in Dali.
However, things really developed in the direction he thought. I don't know whether it was the old emperor's tenacious vitality or the assassin's exquisite control of strength. The old emperor received his palm and was stunned. He was dying and hovering on the line of death.
This delay lasted for three years. Dali had been without a king for three years, so the whole country was naturally in turmoil.
Several cabinet ministers controlled the government, and the parties fought endlessly. Several princes lost their control, fought for power, and formed cliques. Everyone coveted the position after the death of the old emperor.
The officials below also took advantage of this opportunity to exercise power and make money. The people were living in dire straits.
In just a few years, the national strength of Dashang has been deteriorating. The revenue of the treasury has dropped sharply year by year. Coupled with natural and man-made disasters, peasant uprisings of various sizes have continued to arise in various places. Dali can be said to be in a state of turmoil.
The old emperor lay on the bed and said leisurely: "I now understand why a country cannot be without a king for a day. If I had died in someone's hands that day, I wouldn't have delayed it like this. Dali would have established a new king as soon as possible, and the country and the country of our ancestors would be the same."
It won’t be so precarious now.”
The old eunuch was slumped on the verge of tears: "Master, stop saying that. This is not your fault. It's all your fault, that damned assassin."
The old emperor sighed: "It's hard to get back now. I can only endure it for a few more days. I can endure it until a capable and capable prince eliminates his competitors and rebuilds the world. I will pass the throne to him safely."
In my hands, I can close my eyes with peace of mind. In this way, when I get under the Nine Springs, I can have an explanation for my ancestors."
Prince Cheng's Mansion, this is the residence of the eldest prince Zhao Chengrui. It is located in the very center of the capital, with a dance pavilion and a singing platform. It covers an extremely vast area and is decorated with carved railings and jade tiles. The palace is built in an extremely grand manner.
King Cheng is the eldest prince and the eldest son of the emperor. Although he is a concubine, he has a great advantage in Dali, a country that advocates direct lineage and eldest son. He can be said to be one of the popular candidates to compete for the throne.
Unlike the martial nobles standing behind the third prince King Jing, the people standing behind the eldest prince Cheng Wang were civil servants in the court. Because the eldest prince had always been courteous to virtuous people and treated scholars kindly, many civil servants regarded him as a holy lord and a wise king.
.
King Cheng is the oldest, about twenty-seven or seventy-eight years old. He has a square face and a long beard. He looks extremely mature and dignified. He does not appear to be of the same generation as the other eight princes.
In the eyes of the civil servants, the Holy Lord Mingjun, King Cheng, who looked smiling all day long, was currently in the study with a gloomy face, looking at the detailed information in his hands.
"I didn't expect this fifth man to have such a method. He usually keeps a low profile and almost blinded me. Fortunately, this time he showed his fox tail. Otherwise, I don't know how long this venomous snake would have been hiding."
King Cheng said with a gloomy face.
Sitting on the guest seat in his study was a man in Tsing Yi with a mustache and a wretched appearance. This was his most trusted aide, Su Qingnan.
Just listen to Su Qingnan cupping his hands and saying: "Why should the prince be so worried? You must know that the enemy in the dark is the most terrifying. King Yu jumping out this time should be a great good thing for the prince. The prince should be happy. King Yu is like this
After all, it is destined that he will never be that oriole or fisherman again. King Yu's power is weak after all. No matter what kind of calculation he has, we only need to strengthen the surveillance of him, and he will not be able to escape.
The palm of your hand, Your Majesty."
King Cheng's expression brightened slightly, and he raised his hands to Su Qingnan: "Sir, what you said is that I have lost my temper. Thank you, sir, for your advice."
Su Qingnan twirled his mustache and said he didn't dare, but it looked like he was extremely proud of Cheng Wang's attitude.
King Cheng and several of his staff discussed other matters in the study for a while. Soon, the staff left one by one, leaving King Cheng alone in the huge study.
King Cheng snorted coldly and slapped the table hard, "You're a fucking waste. I have so much money to support you, so you just said something that a three-year-old can see, and you're fooling me into being a fool, right?"
, these scholars are stupid because of reading, and they regard me as a fool, right? When I come to the throne, these scholars, huh, one of them will be waiting for me."
King Yu's unusual behavior may seem to others to be just a small counterattack from a low-key prince. However, to King Cheng, it is easy to see a different meaning.
King Yu had been keeping a low profile for so many years, so why did his temperament change drastically this time? He changed his low profile and turned the Ministry of Revenue into an uproar.
Some people may say that it was because Prince Yu's palace could no longer survive that Prince Yu fought back.
But King Cheng understood that this was not the real reason. King Yu’s low profile was not because he liked to keep a low profile. It was for other princes to see. He used this attitude to tell other princes that he had no intention of competing for the treasure, so in the past King Cheng and Jing
The king has never paid attention to this old man. But today, it is difficult for the two of them not to notice King Yu. You said that King Yu would get involved in the battle for the throne that had previously been like a snake and scorpion for a little money.
This makes no sense!
There are people in the Ancient Moon World whose words and deeds are inconsistent, and their behavior has changed greatly from before. This should be considered a normal thing. After all, people are always changing creatures, but this is different for some people.
meaning.
King Cheng's face was cold, his eyes were cold, another realm lord had arrived, right?
King Cheng was pacing back and forth in the study, with a gloomy look on his face. Although he and the third prince, King Jing, seemed to be at odds with each other in the court, he actually didn't take King Jing very seriously.
According to his findings, King Jing was just an ordinary native of the Ancient Moon Realm. King Cheng had plenty of means to deal with him if he wanted to.
Therefore, on the surface, he and King Jing were inextricably killed, but in fact, this was just a trick on his part to confuse the enemy, and he just released a plume of smoke.
Secretly, he has never let down his guard, and has been using his own power to secretly search for the whereabouts of various world lords.
Especially when it comes to the various princes, they are the targets of his focus. Dali's throne can establish a huge first-mover advantage for him, and possessing a huge indigenous force out of thin air is the target that he is bound to win.
He understood that he was definitely not the only one who had the ability to be reincarnated as a prince. Among the remaining eight princes, there must be a Realm Lord hiding there. Even King Jing, who had been ruled out of suspicion before, might not be the perfect disguise of the Realm Lord.
Although the princes have always behaved normally, King Cheng has never given up monitoring and investigating the princes.
This time King Yu made a big fuss in the household department. He keenly sensed the unusual meaning and was already 70-80% sure.
