The entire Longdu was in complete chaos because of Zhao Tianyi.
Countless maglev vehicles lost control on the spot, and traffic control was completely paralyzed.
Various car accidents occur one after another, and everything seems to be helping Zhao Tianyi escape from here.
A large number of troops were originally transferred to the imperial city.
The number of troops stationed in Longdu City is only over 10,000 at the moment.
Facing sudden chaos.
The War Preparedness Department was already in a hurry and had no time left to worry about the fleeing target.
With the collapse and explosion of the Zuo Group headquarters building, most of the city center was plunged into flames.
Without any choice.
The night watchmen in the city had no choice but to turn their attention to rescue and stability maintenance work.
Ever since——
There was almost no obstruction.
The silver metal sphere broke through the sky, successfully breaking through Longdu's city defense system, leaving only a mess behind it, and flew towards the distant horizon outside the wilderness.
"There are many ways to live forever..."
Inside the fast-moving metal sphere.
The cold-blooded man sat cross-legged. In the vessel next to him, his head was apparently safe and sound.
With a biting chill in his tone, Zhao Tian said expressionlessly: "As long as consciousness is immortal, there is no so-called death. From another angle, we can actually find the secret to immortality. The bodies of carbon-based organisms are too fragile. , one day, I will break through the technical barriers and achieve true eternity..."
The wind howled.
The metal sphere suddenly passed over the sea level, and the water splashed into the sky...
the other side.
The imperial city, which was also recovering from the disaster, gradually began to recover under the scorching sun in the afternoon.
"Duke Protector~~!!"
In the Ouchi Imperial Palace.
As soon as he saw Xue Yun, who had returned from a long journey, Xuanyuan Gong, who had already been frightened by the series of events, immediately rushed forward surrounded by a group of servants and guards.
But I saw this guy wearing a very conspicuous dragon robe, crying and crying, like a playboy who had just been beaten.
Xue Yun was stunned for a moment and could not react. He stood there with a surprised expression and said: "Prince Gong, what are you..."
"Well, it's a long story."
Gongsun Youhai on the side quickly stepped forward and said awkwardly: "In short, His Majesty is no longer the prince before, but the new king of our Great Xia Empire."
He raised his eyebrows.
Xue Yun nodded immediately and immediately figured out the hurdles involved.
The "Xuanyuan Sword Spirit" had been mentioned before in the underground imperial mausoleum.
The change of throne in Daxia meant that a new descendant of the royal family succeeded to the throne.
It seems now.
Most likely, the princes who captured the imperial city forced Xuanyuan Hong to abdicate and instead supported Prince Gong, who had royal blood, to ascend the throne.
no doubt.
Judging from the situation at the time, there was indeed nothing wrong with such an operation.
A country cannot live without a king for a day.
In comparison, although Xuanyuan Gong didn't have much ability, he was easier to control.
For him to inherit the throne will be of great benefit to the current Great Xia Empire and the princes and city lords.
"Understood......"
He smiled bitterly.
Xue Yun took a step forward, and in desperation made a gesture to salute Xuanyuan Gong.
Even if he is a puppet, his current identity is still the Emperor of Great Xia.
Under the eyes of the public, the rules that should be followed must always be followed.
"I can't do it, I can't do it..."
He quickly rushed forward and held Xue Yun's arms.
Xuanyuan Gong was sweating profusely and said with a mournful face: "The Lord Protector does not need to be polite. This king... ah no, how can I bear your worship!"
"How about that..."
Shaked his head.
Xue Yun said seriously: "Your Majesty is the king, and I am the minister. As the saying goes, there is a difference between king and minister. Should I kneel down or kneel down..."
As soon as these words came out.
The princes and city lords following Xue Yun immediately had their foreheads covered with black lines.
While he was laughing, he was complaining crazily in his heart.
Their understanding of Xue Yun is profound.
When this guy first debuted, he was a master who was fearless.
I never paid much attention to the imperial power of Daxia...
A dozen years ago.
Before the Daxia royal family was as weak as it is now, he dared to contradict it face to face.
Nowadays, although it is for the sake of the overall situation, I have to compromise, but the traces of showmanship are too obvious, which makes people feel a bit ridiculous.
"Lord Protector, are you kidding..."
The corners of his mouth twitched.
Xuanyuan Gong came closer and murmured in a low voice: "The Great Xia Empire is in danger now, and we have to rely on you, Lord Protector, to turn the tide. To put it bluntly, I got this throne by accident..."
Smile flatteringly.
Xuanyuan Gong continued: "What's more, we are old acquaintances. It's not a joke. The Great Xia Empire will have to count on you, Lord Protector."
The monarch and his ministers whispered to each other for a while, causing other people present to speculate.
Many low-status servants were even more frightened.
They squatted on the ground on the spot, with their heads pressed tightly against the floor, for fear of hearing something they shouldn't have heard, and thus being in trouble.
"This is what you said, I didn't force you..."
I originally had a strong objection to the idea of supremacy of imperial power.
Seeing Xuanyuan Gong take the initiative to lower his posture, Xue Yun was happy with it.
after all.
In the future, for the safety of the entire Great Xia Empire, it is inevitable that we will often deal with these palace nobles.
Being able to flatter someone without having to kneel down is naturally a happy thing for everyone.
"Ahem..."
He cleared his throat quickly.
Although Xuanyuan Gong was uneducated, his ability to observe words and emotions was extremely proficient.
After looking at Xue Yun's expression, the guy immediately straightened his sleeves in a pretentious manner and declared seriously: "Xue Yun, the protector of the country, has made great contributions to the Great Xia Empire. Today I grant his grace and he will be in the palace in the future." Walking avoids the need to kneel down.”
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty!" Xue Yun responded quickly.
The monarch and his ministers had a good understanding of each other, and after singing and harmonizing, the matter was finally settled, and it can be said that everyone was happy.
Ever since.
Everyone was talking and laughing, and finally climbed to the highest peak of the Imperial City Mountains and arrived at the meeting hall of the Great Xia Palace.
Sitting on the dragon chair.
As a puppet emperor, Xuanyuan Gong was very aware of his status. He just raised his hand and ordered his servants to arrange seats and tea for the big bosses.
As for other things, I didn’t dare to mention them too much at all.
"Leader Xue."
Drink all the tea in front of you.
Luo Qingyang, whose temples were turning white, cupped his hands towards Xue Yun, and suddenly said: "I just received a report from the fiefdom. According to the precise information, the bastard of Aisha Principality has once again assembled an army of tens of thousands. , wandering on the grassland border of our Shenju City..."
He gritted his teeth.
Luo Qingyang clenched his fists and said in a deep voice: "We must come up with a countermeasure, otherwise, there will be endless troubles!"
actually.
It's not just Shenju City in the northwest that is in danger.
Yangcheng, which is close to the coastline in the south, and Rat City, which borders Yangcheng, are now intimidated by the armies from the Ocean Federation and the Sun Never Sets Empire.
Once these important border areas are lost, it can be said that the enemy's troops want to invade the hinterland of the Daxia Empire.
Especially after a decade of civil unrest.
The internal strife of the Great Xia Empire was extremely serious. Whether it was in terms of economy, military, or even people's livelihood and logistics, the overall national strength was no longer comparable to what it had been before.
Even if you want to work hard to restore the previous national strength, it will be difficult to achieve without three to five years of hard work.
Unfortunately.
Those external forces would never give the Daxia Empire a chance to breathe.
All of a sudden.
The entire meeting hall was filled with gloom, and all the big bosses frowned, looking a little worried.
"Everyone."
Take a deep breath.
Xue Yun glanced at everyone and said in a deep voice: "The matter has come to this, we can only accept the reality, choose a good time, and fight a battle that can shock Xiaoxiao to establish his authority!"
