At the same time, thousands of miles away.
The Great Qian.
The imperial palace.
The Great Qian Emperor was convening civil and military officials for a discussion.
The Great Qian Emperor was very young.
Looking at his appearance, he was only in his twenties, with a fair complexion, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and a rather handsome appearance.
Although he was young, none of the ministers dared to look down on him. Over the years, this Great Qian Emperor had managed the ministers submissively.
Moreover, the Great Qian Empress is still the granddaughter of the God of War family’s Cao Potian.
”You have all seen the ranking on the Rising Dragon List. Regarding the fact that King Wu of Zhou is still alive, what do you have to say？” asked the Great Qian Emperor.
An old minister said, “Your Majesty, we all thought that King Wu of Zhou was dead before, but unexpectedly, he actually appeared on the Rising Dragon List this time. It can be seen that King Wu of Zhou is not dead.”
Another minister said, “King Wu of Zhou is not dead, and he and the current Great Zhou Emperor both ascended the Rising Dragon List at the same time. This is not a good thing for our Great Qian.”
Then.
Another minister said, “King Wu of Zhou is not dead, but there has been no news for so many years. I think the Great Zhou has a big plan, and we should make countermeasures in advance.”
The Great Qian Emperor nodded and said, “One cannot be too careful when guarding against others, let alone a neighboring country. Indeed, some preparations should be made.”
”Our three kingdoms each occupy one side and check and balance each other. This balanced situation has been maintained for many years.”
”The appearance of King Wu of Zhou may break this balance.”
”If I guess correctly, the Great Wei is now in the same situation as us, and the Wei King is probably also making preparations.”
At this time, a military general said, “Your Majesty, I have a suggestion. We can unite with the Great Wei to jointly against the Great Zhou.
The Great Qian Emperor asked, “What about the others？ What do you think？”
One by one, the ministers spoke up in turn.
”Your Majesty, I think uniting with the Great Wei is a good choice.”
“If Great Qian and Great Wei join hands, perhaps we can destroy Great Zhou.”
“We can first ally with Great Wei, destroy Great Zhou, and then turn around and destroy Great Wei to unify Central Continent.”
“……”
Immediately, there was a hubbub of discussion at the scene.
After a while.
The Great Qian Emperor gently raised his hand, and in an instant, the scene was silent.
I understand what you all mean, which is to ally with Great Wei to jointly against Great Zhou. However, I want to ask everyone, since we are looking for someone to form an alliance, why not find a stronger one to ally with?
The Great Qian Emperor said： “For example, form an alliance with Great Zhou.”
“Your Majesty, this matter must not be done.” An old minister with gray hair said： “Great Zhou has wild ambitions. If we form an alliance with them, we may let the wolf into the house.”
The Great Qian Emperor said： “If Great Zhou has wild ambitions, doesn’t Great Wei also have wild ambitions？”
“Actually, I understand that whether it is the Great Zhou Emperor, the Wei King, or even I, we all have a common ideal, that is, to unify Central Continent and create eternal glory.”
“But in the current situation, no one can do it. Therefore, allying to first eliminate one country is the only choice!”
“Have you all thought about it? If we form an alliance with Great Wei, the combined strength of the two countries can only counter Great Zhou and it is impossible to eliminate Great Zhou in a short time.
“However, Great Zhou has a strong national strength and there are also two powerhouses on the Rising Dragon List. If we form an alliance with Great Zhou, we completely have the strength to eliminate Great Wei.
The previous old minister said, “Your Majesty, have you ever thought that once the Great Wei is destroyed, the Great Zhou will turn around and deal with us？”
The Great Qian Emperor said, “I have thought about this matter, but I am not afraid.”
”If the Great Wei is destroyed, then there will only be us and the Great Zhou left in Zhongzhou. Even if we go to war, we don’t have to guard against the Great Wei attacking in chaos. We can mobilize the strength of the whole country and work together to deal with the Great Zhou.”
”At that time, it is still unknown who will win.”
”Moreover, once we form an alliance with the Great Zhou, we must be prepared to go to war with the Great Zhou after destroying the Great Wei.”
”We must prepare food, grass and soldiers in advance, and at the same time win over the princes and ministers of the Great Zhou, and send secret agents to various places in the Great Zhou to incite the people. If we go to war, the Great Zhou will face internal and external troubles. At that time, it will not be possible to solve the problem only with a few strong people.”
Hearing this, the ministers shouted that the emperor was wise.
A minister said, “By the way, Your Majesty, if we form an alliance with the Great Zhou, should we directly send envoys to exchange state letters, or…”
”There is an opportunity right now.” The Great Zhou Emperor said, “Next month, the Great Zhou Emperor will hold a birthday banquet for his only daughter, Princess Ning’an, and at the same time recruit a son-in-law for Princess Ning’an. This is an opportunity for us.”
A courtier said, “Princess Ning’an not only has a noble birth, but also is a direct disciple of the master in Jixia Academy. It is said that she has a beautiful face and outstanding intelligence. It is probably not easy to become her husband. Do we have any young talents in Great Qian who are worthy of Princess Ning’an？”
Another courtier said, “It’s a pity that the emperor already has a queen. Otherwise, if the emperor makes a move, he will definitely be able to abduct Princess Ning’an to our Great Qian.”
There was also a minister who followed and said, “Having a queen doesn’t affect it either！ I believe that as long as the emperor goes there in person, he will definitely be able to capture the heart of Princess Ning’an. Then you can make Princess Ning’an a noble concubine…”
”Don’t be kidding.” The emperor of Great Qian smiled and said, “As for who will go to Great Zhou to participate in the competition for the position of the princess’ husband, I already have a candidate in mind.”
”My fourth younger brother and fifth younger brother have admired Princess Ning’an for a long time. A few days ago, when they heard that the emperor of Great Zhou was going to recruit a husband for Princess Ning’an, they have already set off. Presumably, they will arrive in Great Zhou soon.”
”The fourth younger brother is the number one talented scholar in our Great Qian. He has a good character and appearance. The fifth younger brother is a one-in-ten-thousand cultivation genius and also the general who guards the country. With the two of them making a move, presumably one of them can win the heart of Princess Ning’an.”
The ministers nodded. They also knew that the emperor’s two younger brothers were both outstanding among men.
If even the emperor’s two younger brothers can’t win the heart of Princess Ning’an, then they really can’t think of who else can make Princess Ning’an’s heart flutter？
The Great Qian Emperor said solemnly, “From now on, everyone perform their respective duties and start preparing. We will never fight a battle unprepared.”
If in this lifetime, I can unify Zhongzhou, then all of you will be founding heroes and meritorious.
I can promise here to ensure your prosperity and wealth for a lifetime, and also make your families prosperous and prosperous for generations.”
The ministers knelt on the ground and shouted long live the emperor.”
……
Qingyun Sword Sect.”
At the entrance of the council hall.
The Long-browed True Person looked at the name of King Wu of Zhou on the Heaven and Earth Bell and Secret passage , “So what if he is the sixth？ It’s better to obediently give me the clan-protecting imperial weapon, hehe~”
Ye Qiu found that the Long-browed True Person was secretly happy and asked, “Old thing, what are you laughing at？”
“Nothing.” The Long-browed True Person’s face quickly returned to normal.”
Just then, the words on the Heaven and Earth Bell disappeared.”
“Dang——”
Then, the bell rang again, resounding in all directions.”
Immediately after, a familiar name came into Ye Qiu’s eyes.”
“Fifth place, Dugu Wudi, Saint King realm, the first Headmaster of Shushan Holy Land, skilled…”
