Style: Historical Author: Luo Mo KeWords: 2266Update Time: 24/01/11 13:50:21
An emperor should have the majesty of an emperor, and even if he dies, he should die in an emperor's way.

Zhou Xing did this to save the last face of the Jin royal family.

Maybe after things calm down, the historians will give him, the last emperor of the Jin Dynasty, a proud message in the history books. That would also be good.

At least it can give the hundreds of years of Jin Dynasty a decent ending.

However, Zhou Xing died a worthy death, but Fan Guangming's face was visibly ugly.

Because he was not prepared to kill Zhou Xing, or in other words, he was not prepared to kill Zhou Xing now!

If you want to sit in that position, big fists are key.

But it doesn't matter who has the bigger fist, just listen to whoever has it.

You have to have a good reputation!

Especially when the position is incorrect!

How did the Emperor Gaozu of the Jin Dynasty come to the throne? When Chu was at its peak, no one in the world dared to disobey those entrusted by the Emperor of Chu!

But Fan Guangming is different!

He was born as the son of a groom, and his success today was all due to his courage, quick thinking, and delicate mind, not to mention his big fists.

After all, it was the Zheng family who punched.

It is extremely difficult for a person like himself to gain recognition from the people of the world, especially from Da Chu, and to sit on the position of King of Jin.

But it is not hopeless, but no matter what method, the most unavoidable thing is reputation!

If he wants to sit in that position, his background will be criticized by countless people.

Princes, generals, and ministers, it is no longer an empty talk, but a fact before everyone's eyes!

After all, the son of a horseman can be the emperor, so what if the son of a fisherman or a farmer is not a bad idea?

However, just having a good reputation can greatly alleviate this!

Everyone will feel that although Fan Guangming is from a humble background, he loves the people like a son and is highly respected!

This is not something ordinary people can do. Invisibly, there are princes, generals and ministers who would rather have the talent to add a threshold.

But now, with Zhou Xing's death, it's gone, it's all gone!

All his plans and calculations came to nothing!

Not only that, it may even bring death to yourself!

Although Zheng Gong, the head of the Zheng family, kept his posture extremely low when he entered the city just now, Fan Guangming not only did not relax his vigilance, but became even more wary of the Zheng family.

After all, he has never had more than 10,000 people under his command from the time of the uprising to the present.

The reason why we were able to attack the capital of Jin, or even break into the capital of Jin, was entirely due to the strength of the Zheng family!

In this case, why doesn't the Zheng family let their own family sit in that position and go one step further to command the world?

There is absolutely no need to give up the throne to yourself!

These aristocratic families are all cannibals, how can they have such good intentions!

Fan Guangming thought about it before entering the city, and he could only think of one reason.

That is Zhou Xing!

Anyone with some knowledge would feel that the Zhou Dynasty was so unbearable that the century-old foundation of the Jin Dynasty was destroyed in just a few months.

The old King of Jin might as well pass the throne to the Seventh Prince.

However, no matter how miserable Zhou Xing is, he will always be the King of Jin!

It represents the majesty of Jin Dynasty that has been accumulated in this land for a long time!

This majesty is not developed overnight, but is produced over hundreds of years.

This kind of majesty instills an idea in the minds of the people of Jin Dynasty all the time: The Zhou family is the orthodoxy in this land!

Of course, this idea is not deeply ingrained.

It's fine in times of peace, but if it comes to troubled times, it will be in danger.

After all, a hungry person can do anything. Who cares whether you are authoritative or orthodox?

As long as you have food to eat, you can be a king if you want!

But the key point is that he, Fan Guangming, can't afford food, so he must care about this.

The orthodox status of the Zhou family is already in jeopardy, but someone always needs to stand up to break it!

But the first one to stand up will often die!

Therefore, Zhou Xing cannot die!

At least he, Fan Guangming, cannot die until he has established his own reputation and image!

He is Fan Guangming's protective umbrella! amulet!

But now, the protective umbrella is broken and the amulet is broken!

The most important thing is that the last obstacle to the Zheng family is gone, and the road to the throne becomes smooth!

Then what would Fan Guangming be left with?

"Close the door!" Fan Guangming thought in his mind, reacted immediately, and shouted loudly.

Everyone was a little confused, but due to Fan Guangming's power, they still did it.

"Third and Fourth, seal the palace gate and don't let the news of King Jin's death spread!"

Before Fan Guangming's uprising, he was just a grassroots bandit. He had no power and no wealth. How could he win over his subordinates?

Naturally, it is the so-called righteousness that takes the lead!

Therefore, he has many sworn brothers, among whom the most capable are the third and fourth brothers.

Hearing this, the third and fourth children looked at each other and saw the seriousness in each other's eyes. Then they nodded and said: "No!"

"Commander, what are you doing? It's better to let the news of Zhou Xing's death out as soon as possible, otherwise how can the eldest brother claim to be emperor?" Some people were confused and asked.

However, Fan Guangming just glanced at him and said nothing. The next moment, he took action boldly!

A sharp sword light was like lightning, decapitating the person who spoke!

Snap!

The blood-stained head fell to the ground and rolled around.

This scene undoubtedly shocked everyone. One moment they were chatting and laughing, and the next moment they were drawing swords to kill people.

This commander is a little too moody.

As a result, everyone couldn't help but move a little farther away from Fan Guangming.

However, Fan Guangming didn't care. Instead, he yelled: "Stupid!"

"If Zhou Xing dies, the Zheng family will definitely take action against us."

"For him to persuade me to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor at this time is simply to put me to death!"

"If he's not a spy from the Zheng family, who else could he be?"

After everyone heard this, they suddenly showed signs of enlightenment, but what they were thinking in their hearts was another matter.

"In the next few days, all of us will eat and live in the palace, and the palace gates must be guarded by trusted brothers!"

"We must not let the news get out, otherwise... we may become the dead souls of the Zheng family!"

"No!" When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but look at each other. This is different from what they thought before entering the city. They thought they were here to be uncles, but they didn't expect to be grandsons. But even so, due to Fan Guangming's majesty, everyone had no choice but to claim it was.

In this way, three days passed in a row.

Under Fan Guangming's strict requirements, the inside and outside of the palace were almost cut off, and it was absolutely difficult to convey news by ordinary means.

However, people outside the palace could not enter, but the people inside the palace were becoming more and more impetuous.

Some people have repeatedly approached Fan Guangming to protest, thinking that it would be better to either kill him or ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor, rather than being a caged bird waiting to die here.

But Fan Guangming refused. He was not waiting to die, but he was hesitating!
