The Wei King is dead.
Although he had long been turned into an Arhat by the Holy Monk of Ling Mountain and was no different from a dead person, now he is truly dead and cannot die anymore.
The tragic Wei King, his last bit of value was squeezed dry.
The sudden change not only made all the soldiers on the scene stunned, but also made Ning’an fall into a daze.
「What’s going on?」
「Why did the Wei King suddenly appear in front of me?」
「Also, why did he die? I didn’t even draw my sword.」
Ning’an lowered her head and took a look, even more confused. She didn’t know when the long sword was held in her palm by her.
This…
What exactly happened?
Although her mind was in a daze, the people standing beside her just now saw everything clearly.
They witnessed with their own eyes that it was Ye Qiu who pulled out Ning’an’s sword and killed King Wei. It’s just that when Ye Qiu did all this, it was incredibly fast. Those whose cultivation level did not reach the saint level simply couldn’t detect it.
It was only at this time that True Man Changmei, Lin Daniao, and Mo Tianjie suddenly realized why Ye Qiu repeatedly told them not to kill King Wei when they were besieging him earlier.
It turned out that it was to wait for this moment.
For a while, the three of them admired Ye Qiu’s methods from the bottom of their hearts.
「Brother Daniao, in terms of chasing girls, you have to learn from the boss.」 Mo Tianji said.
Lin Daniao sighed and said: 「I finally understand why so many peerless beauties like the boss. He is so good at pleasing women. I have to admit it.」
「Is it just being good at pleasing women?」 True Man Changmei said beside him: 「Could it also be because the little bastard is handsome?」
Lin Daniao asked: 「Second brother, what do you mean? Are you saying that I’m ugly?」
True Man Changmei immediately denied it: 「I didn’t say that.」
「That’s what you meant.」 Lin Daniao argued: 「I’m just fat, not ugly.」
「Right, right, everything you said is right.」 The Long-browed True Man was too lazy to argue with Lin Daniao, but in his heart he was complaining about Ye Qiu and the Great Zhou Emperor.
「Not being from the same family, they wouldn’t enter the same door! These two, father-in-law and son-in-law, are really dogs!」
「After doing all this, isn’t it just to pave the way for Princess Ning’an?」
「They said that no matter who it is, as long as they can kill the King of Wei, they can become the next emperor of the Great Zhou. But in fact, the quota has long been pre-determined by you.」
「What’s this called?」
「Manipulation behind the scenes?」
「Or internal recommendation?」
「Dogs, really fucking dogs!」
At this time, Ye Qiu said with a smile: 「Ning’an, congratulations on killing the King of Wei!」
Ning’an came back to her senses from the daze. Seeing Ye Qiu looking at her with a smile and winking at her, she immediately reacted and said: 「Changsheng…」
Ye Qiu whispered: 「Accept the arrangement of fate!」
When the Long-browed True Man heard this sentence, his old face turned to the side, and he cursed in his heart: 「Obviously it’s a man-made arrangement, but actually said it’s the arrangement of fate. Even more shameless than me, bah!」
On the ground.
The soldiers came back to their senses from the shock. They talked in disorder, and the scene was in an uproar.
「Did you see that? Princess Ning’an killed the King of Wei.」
「Doesn’t that mean that Princess Ning’an will become the new emperor of our Great Zhou?」
「This is impossible. Since the founding of the three kingdoms in Central Continent, from ancient times to the present, no woman has ever been able to become emperor!」
「Moreover, the emperor has so many princes. How could it be the turn of Princess Ning’an to become emperor?」
「However, the emperor is the supreme ruler, and his words are golden. Besides, he made a promise in front of all of us. How could it be easily changed?」
「Actually, if Princess Ning’an were not a woman, I would think she is quite suitable to be the emperor.」
「At a young age, she is already a saint-level powerhouse, famous for her talent, and has made amazing achievements at Yannan Pass. She can be said to be both civil and military. Moreover, she has the support of Jixia Academy behind her. Among those princes
, which one can compare with Princess Ning’an?」
「……」
「Dong!」
Suddenly, a drumbeat sounded, resounding through the heavens and the earth.
「Quiet!」 With an order from the Great Zhou Emperor, in an instant, the whole audience fell silent.
The soldiers on the ground straightened up one after another, raised their heads, and their eyes all looked at the Great Zhou Emperor standing on the bronze battleship.
At this moment, it seems that only the sound of breathing and the soft sound of the wind blowing through the armor remain in the whole world.
Extremely quiet.
The Great Zhou Emperor slowly opened his mouth, and his voice was loud and firm, saying: 「Since I ascended the throne, I have been diligent in governing. Fortunately, with the loyalty of all the soldiers, my Great Zhou River and Mountain are stable.」
「However, the years are unforgiving.」
「Although I seem to be in the prime of my life, in fact, I am already over two thousand years old. These years, I have been exhausted and have long been powerless in many things. Therefore, I have decided that today, here, I will pass the throne to my beloved daughter – Princess Ning’an.」
As soon as these words came out, there was a sudden uproar on the ground.
「Is the emperor really going to pass the throne to Princess Ning’an?」
「Passing the throne today is too fast, right?」
「The emperor wants to create a precedent for all eternity. After all, in Zhongzhou for so many years, no woman has been able to become the emperor!」
「……」
However, the Great Zhou Emperor ignored the discussions of the soldiers and said loudly: 「Read the imperial edict!」
The next moment, an old eunuch appeared in front of Ning’an with the imperial edict in his hand and said with a smile: 「Princess, please receive the edict.」
Hearing this, Ning’an knelt on the ground.
At the same time, all the soldiers also knelt on the ground.
The old eunuch opened the imperial edict, cleared his throat, and then read aloud:
“The Emperor, by the grace of Heaven, edict says: I have heard that the mandate of Heaven belongs to those with virtue. Since I ascended the throne, I have been diligent in government and loved the people. However, the years are unforgiving, and I am already exhausted. Now, seeing Princess Ning’an, with her upright character, kindness and generosity, she is to my liking.
I hereby issue an imperial ict to pass the throne of the Great Zhou to Princess Ning’an. From today, Princess Ning’an will be the new emperor of the Great Zhou, inheriting the great line and commanding the people.
「Princess Ning’an has been extremely intelligent since childhood, with both virtue and talent. Her moral character is noble and she is deeply loved by the common people. I firmly believe that Princess Ning’an will surely inherit the will of our ancestors and lead the Great Zhou to an even more prosperous and thriving future.」
「I order all officials to fully assist the new emperor and seek the well-being of the Great Zhou together. The court officials must do their best and be loyal to the new emperor to jointly create a prosperous era!」
「Today, I pass on the throne to Princess Ning’an. I will inform the heaven, earth and ancestors on another day. May the heaven bless the Great Zhou and the national fortune be prosperous!」
After the old eunuch finished reading, he handed the imperial edict to Ning’an and said, 「Princess Ning’an, please get up quickly.」
Ning’an looked at the Great Zhou Emperor and was about to speak. Unexpectedly, a group of palace maids walked out of the bronze warship.
They came to Ning’an’s and quickly arranged her hair, put on the imperial crown for her and also put on a dragon robe for her.
「Tut tut tut, another imperial edict, and then the palace maids. Now she is even wearing a dragon robe. You father-in-law and son-in-law really know how to play!」 The Long-browed True Man secretly curled his lips.
Subsequently, the Great Zhou Emperor took out the Great Zhou’s imperial jade seal.
The old eunuch shouted in a loud voice, 「Please accept the seal, Princess!」
