Approaching Hengzhou City, Yi Chang saw a crowd of people at the gate of the city from afar, and almost thought that the county guard had set up a dragon gate formation to wait for her.
A man came on a flying horse, Gulu knelt down, "I heard that Her Royal Highness the Emperor Ji was coming, the county guard led the people in the city to come out to greet her, and asked Her Highness to move."
Lead the whole city?
What do you want to do?
Yi Chang's eyelids twitched, but she wasn't afraid.
"Welcome to Your Highness the Emperor!"
The voices of tens of thousands of people echoed throughout the sky. Yi Chang looked at the old county governor with neither happiness nor anger, "Master Qian, thank you for your trouble."
Sheriff Qian burst into tears and ranny nose, "You are the only one left in the Yin Dynasty. Today, I have finally expected you to come. I will die without regrets!"
Yi Chang's heart tightened, and just when he wanted to comfort the old minister, the chief minister next to him also cried. After a while, the greetings dispersed and turned into a cry.
She twitched her eyes, what was she trying to do?
"Your Highness," Sheriff Qian pulled her sleeves and cried while complaining, his loyalty clearly revealed.
But Yi Chang got another kind of information from his words.
He is denying, he is denying the current little emperor, he is even denying the missing prince, pushing her to the only orthodox position.
He wanted her to admit even more, to admit that the little emperor was a fake, to admit that the prince was dead, and to admit that she would take on the responsibility of the Yin Dynasty.
Yi Chang raised her hand to cover the rough back of Sheriff Qian's hand and looked into his clear and burning eyes, "Master, do you think I'm suitable?"
"Your Highness, it's not whether I think it's suitable or not, but whether you want it or not." The old man replied.
Yi Shang held the back of his hand tightly, with all kinds of emotions swirling, "I have never coveted the throne..."
"But," she gradually became determined, as if she had found her vision among thousands of things, "I want to stop the war, I want the rivers to be clear and the seas to be clear, and I want an enlightened and prosperous age."
"I don't trust it if it's in human hands," Yi Chang said solemnly, "If this is the case, I have to fight for it."
"Your Highness once suppressed the riots and expelled the barbarians, and saved the three states from fire and water. The world has long known your reputation as a virtuous man. In today's troubled times, the people are looking forward to you cleaning up the old country and starting over again. Don't belittle yourself!"
Yi Chang looked relieved, "I know this, and I will definitely restore a peaceful and prosperous world to the world."
There was a commotion not far away, and the county guard shouted, "What happened!"
The crowd made way for a path leading to the surging river.
Si River lies in front of Hengzhou City and is Hengzhou's natural barrier. It is tens of feet wide and of unknown length. It runs through almost half of the territory of the Yin Dynasty. It is the mother river worshiped by tens of millions of people along its coast.
"Your Highness, let's go over and take a look."
"Okay." She didn't know what kind of shock this old man wanted to give her.
The river is turbulent and the waves are rolling. If you look closely, there seems to be something under the water.
"Hey, what is that!"
"Look, it's surfaced!"
"Oh my god, how could there be such a big turtle!"
Yi Shang was also surprised. Visually, the turtle in the water had a circular diameter of three feet, and there were vague pictures and texts engraved on its back, which was really strange.
Sheriff Qian: "This turtle is a bit strange. Catch it quickly."
There was a lot of discussion among the people. They had never seen such a big turtle in their lives.
Some people also say that this is an auspicious sign, God has mercy on you!
The big turtle came onto the shore, stretched out its neck, looked at the crowd lazily, and climbed up a few steps. The crowd screamed and admired, and some even knelt down to worship, chanting about the coming of the water god.
Yi Chang squinted to distinguish the writing on the turtle's back, "Ti...ce."
Governor Qian's expression was solemn, "Who dares to use the word "Heaven" to discuss policies? Your Highness, when you come today, you will have a black turtle to send you policies. It is indeed God's will and the general trend!"
"It makes sense, Lord Qian is absolutely right!"
"Your Highness, please comply with the destiny of heaven. If you are not the emperor, it is not allowed by heaven!"
Before Yi Shang could say anything, Governor Qian lifted up his robe and knelt down, "Old minister, I sincerely ask Your Highness to take charge of Hengzhou and lead the people of Li to create Antai!"
"I and others (the common people) sincerely request His Highness to take over Hengzhou!"
Yi Shang pulled up Sheriff Qian and said, "It is my duty to work for the welfare of the people. Please get up quickly!"
After some pulling and pulling, the king and his ministers finally entered the city.
Yi Shang helped the old county guard enter the house, and the old county guard burst into tears of gratitude, "You really broke my old minister."
"My lord, your hard work has brought you great results, and you will be well rewarded."
The governor nodded movedly and pulled his sleeves, "Well, Your Highness, I can go on my own."
In the blink of an eye, he saw Yi Chang looking at him with a half-smile, and his heart skipped a beat.
"Did you enjoy your performance today, sir?"
The governor sneered, "Your Highness, what are you talking about? I'm not thinking very well lately and I can't understand."
"Then take me to someone who understands!"
The emperor's concubine and General Zhengnan was furious. The evil spirit was not something that an old man could withstand. The county guard was immediately frightened and said, "Your Highness, don't be anxious. You can't escape. It's in the backyard."
Yi Chang just didn't like the twists and turns in politics, but it wasn't that she didn't understand it. From Xifeng City to Jinzhou, and then to Hengzhou, she would never believe it if there was no one pushing behind her.
When she thought that the destruction of Xifeng City might have been planned by that little bastard, her heart was filled with anger. How could you not go to heaven!
The general raised his eyes, his phoenix eyes similar to those of Zhan Changfeng were extremely sharp. He grabbed his gun and rushed into the backyard, determined to beat up this crazy bastard. Even the old county guard couldn't stop him.
The old county guard simply didn't stop him. Alas, let His Highness the Crown Prince handle household matters by himself.
The backyard was empty, there wasn't even a guard. Yi Chang felt a sigh in her heart. For a moment, she thought she had found the wrong place. After walking around the winding path of the rockery, a gust of wind blew by, causing fallen leaves to flutter.
It was obviously the vibrant summer, but it was as desolate as autumn and winter here, and she actually felt a hint of chill.
Fallen leaves covered the ground, and a person stood on the porch, smiling lightly, "Auntie Huang, you are here."
Yi Chang felt as if she had been slapped, and the anger she had tried to increase turned into soreness when she saw the child. She took a few steps forward, knelt on one knee on the stone steps, and carefully touched the scar on her face with her fingertips.
The child's face was pale and weak, but his expression was firm and gentle. All of them fell into her eyes. This was the person she had cared about since childhood.
She should have been the most noble and dazzling person.
"I'm here." Yi Chang put down the spear and hugged Zhan Changfeng.
Zhan Changfeng said in a low voice: "I'm sorry, Huang Gu."
What are you sorry for? Sorry for not saving the emperor's grandfather, sorry for not guarding the Yin Dynasty, sorry for destroying Xifeng City, sorry for causing deeper turmoil?
Zhan Changfeng's few feelings of guilt were not for the Yin Dynasty, not for the world, but for her, sorry for treating her as an important piece in the chess game.
Yi Chang had no time to think deeply. She only noticed something strange in her arms. She went to hold her hand under her wide sleeves, and all she felt was cold and hard...
Bones.
"What's going on!" Yi Chang was frightened and panicked. He went to lift her robe, but she brushed it away.
"As you can see, Auntie Huang." Zhan Changfeng stood quietly with his hands behind his back, "I'm no longer a human being, but I'm fine."
This is also called nothing!
"What the hell happened!" Yi Chang was frightened and furious, and stabbed the spear three inches deep into the stone floor.
What happened to a good person to become like this? !
