Chapter 317 Passing on Martial Arts

Just when a big turmoil broke out in Yunzhou, a big turmoil also broke out in Kyoto.

The news of the battle at Qixia Mountain had not yet spread. The 200,000-strong army of the Huben Camp, led by the third ancestor of the Ji family and Ji Songlie, entered the capital and led to King Qin. A bloody incident occurred in the imperial city.

On the second day, when the ministers went to court,

They were all surprised to find that Emperor Ji Yi, who had not been in court for many days due to serious illness, actually went to court again. But at the same time, the courtiers also found that there were a large number of people who went to court today, many of whom were

He was an important minister of the dynasty.

On the dragon chair,

Ji Yi's face was very pale, as if he had just recovered from a serious illness. His white hair and skinny face were completely different from the wise Shenwu in the past.

In the main hall, the atmosphere was very depressing.

Amid the doubts of many courtiers, Ji Songlie, the commander of Huben Battalion, led his troops into the palace, escorting a group of disheveled and very embarrassed people behind him. These people were apparently the ones who had not come to court today.

The courtiers were also surprised to find that these people were basically relatives of the Lu family and the Ji family, and there were a lot of Dukes, Marquises and Dukes.

All the officials in the capital knew about the incident in the palace last night and had some speculations. However, they never expected that it would cause such a big fuss and that the royal family would directly suppress the Ji family and the Lu family.

.

This turmoil was a turmoil for the entire Xia Kingdom.

At this moment, the courtiers had different feelings, some were shocked, some were afraid, and some were worried.

Those who can come to the court are either ministers of the court or officials of the capital. They have been hanging out in Tai'an City, the political center of the Xia Kingdom all year round, and they are more or less aware of the situation in all aspects of the Xia Kingdom.

The Xia Kingdom's court mainly consisted of three factions:

One is the royal family headed by the emperor, the other is the Ji family, and the other is the Lu family.

Although the royal family is also a member of the Ji family, there are certain differences after all. The attitude of both parties has always been very ambiguous, both close and mutually resisting. The Lu family, a relative, is even more amazing. It seems to be incompatible with the royal family and the Ji family.

The royal family is close to each other but also resists them.

However, it is undeniable that the royal family, although nominally the lord of the Xia Kingdom, has always been restricted by the Ji family and the Lu family. In recent years, they have sometimes cooperated and sometimes got angry.

They are all still very restrained, and they all clearly understand that if they want to stabilize the country, these three parties must not fall apart.

The reason why the Xia Kingdom's surname is Ji is because the royal family, the royal family and the Lu family are stronger than all other forces. After all, there are many forces in the Xia Kingdom, including the Dugu clan and the Ling family who rebelled before, and the Ling family who rebelled before.

There are the Confucian family, the Confucian family, which controls the gentry in the world, the mysterious Ming family, a reclusive family that rarely appears in the world, the two Buddhist sects that have been at the top for more than two thousand years, and now, even worse, the Gu family, Jixia Academy and the current limelight

The prosperous Yunhou Gu Zhan and so on,

It can be said that the Xia Kingdom is a battleground for various forces. The reason why the Ji family is the master of the world is because the three lines have joined forces and the overall strength is strong enough.

But now,

In a one-night coup, the emperor actually directly took down the royal family and the Lu family. In the eyes of most people, this was tantamount to digging his own grave.

However, Ji Yi, who was sitting on the dragon chair, had a calm expression and waved slightly to the eunuch next to him.

The eunuch understood the idea and immediately took out an imperial edict and read it out.

After hearing the imperial edict, all the courtiers were shocked.

The imperial edict said,

It turned out that the royal family and the Lu family colluded with the prince Ji Yunyang in an attempt to rebel and were suppressed.

And in the edict describing this matter,

Two major events actually happened:

One is that the prince rebelled, and Queen Lu Wantang was actually involved. After the emperor announced his dethronement,

The second is that it was Yunhou Gu Zhan who suppressed the turmoil, and the emperor directly declared Gu Zhan to be the king, titled Tianwu, and the fiefdom was directly based on Yunzhou!

The first thing was expected by all the courtiers. Not to mention whether the queen was really involved, even if she was not involved, the queen would still be responsible for the prince's rebellion. Even the queen mother was not necessarily clean. After all, they were all

The Lu family, now that the Lu family has fallen, the two of them will naturally fall as well. However, the Queen Mother is the emperor's nominal mother after all. Although she is not a biological child, her status is there and she cannot be dealt with openly.

However, the second thing made it difficult for all the courtiers to accept it.

Even if Gu Zhan had contributed to quelling the rebellion, he could not be granted the title of king. Since the founding of the Xia Kingdom, there had been no precedent for granting the title of king with a different surname. What's more, directly using the entire Yunzhou as a fiefdom, this is completely equivalent to allowing Gu Zhan to establish his own country and using Tianwu as his lord.

Wouldn't a title be a public acknowledgment of being equal to the emperor?

only,

At this time, in the main hall, the soldiers of the Huben Camp were all watching with eager eyes. Ji Songlie even went to the hall with his weapons. The emperor had no intention of discussing it. The courtiers were not sure about the current situation, so no one dared to stand.

Come out and oppose.

A court meeting ended in a strange silence between the monarch and his ministers.

After the court, all the courtiers left in a hurry and began to investigate what happened last night.

Emperor Ji Yi took Ji Songlie to the imperial study.

"Your Majesty," Ji Songlie cupped his hands and said, "Lu Wantang has been relegated to the cold palace, and the Queen Mother has also been imprisoned."

Ji Yi nodded and said, "Everything that needs to be settled has been settled."

Ji Songlie nodded and said: "The Ji family's side is not bad. Last night, Lord Gu... King Tianwu killed all the top fighters. Today, even with the Third Ancestor coming forward, no one dares to raise any objections.

However, as for the Lu family, their ancestral home is not in Kyoto, and when they receive the news, their entire family will definitely flee, and it will be difficult to deal with it again."

Ji Yi waved his hand and said: "It doesn't matter, it's just a lost dog."

Ji Songlie pondered for a while and said: "Your Majesty, why did you suddenly make Gu Zhan the king and give him the entire Yunzhou as a fief? This is probably not appropriate!"

Ji Yi shook his head slightly and said, "No, this is the most appropriate approach."

"It is indeed the most appropriate approach."

At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded in the imperial study room, and Ji Yi and Ji Song looked over.

There was a wave of fluctuation in the air,

The figures of the three ancestors of the Ji family slowly emerged.

Ji Yi and Ji Songlie both stood up in a hurry to salute.

The third ancestor of the Ji family waved his hand and said: "Song Lie, you saw it with your own eyes in the battle at Qixia Mountain last night. Gu Zhan is so strong that he is not just the best in the world, he can be said to be the best in the world, leaving no one behind.

By.

His strength, except for the legendary Immortal Sect, no one or force in this world can restrain him. And it just so happens that he has no hatred towards our royal family, but is kind to us.

The emperor now calls him King of Tianwu, using Tianwu as his title, and making him equal to the emperor. He is taking the initiative to show his favor to him. This is very necessary and the most important thing to do now. To be honest, with Gu Zhan's strength, can you still

Do you want him to bow down to our royal family?"

Ji Songlie twitched the corner of his mouth and said: "This...I'm afraid..."

"The royal family is not worthy," said the third ancestor of the Ji family: "Instead of embarrassing everyone like this, it is better for our royal family to find out what is interesting, just like when we faced the second Buddhist sect, take the initiative to find out what is interesting, and everyone will be okay."

Ji Songlie sighed and said: "Actually, I understand the truth, but... alas, Gu Zhan is different from the second sect of Buddhism. The second sect of Buddhism is a holy land of martial arts. They are above the royal family, but Gu Zhan is different.

Ah, what if he really wants the throne?"

"Then give it!" Ji Yi stood up and said, "If Gu Zhan really wants the throne, then I will take the initiative to give him the throne!"

Ji Songlie was horrified.

Ji Yi sighed and said: "First, Gu Zhan's cultivation level is already inhuman, and he has the method of seeing gods. In time, he can cultivate many unrestricted masters comparable to the cave heaven realm. It is impossible for the royal family to be Gu Zhan.

Gu Zhan's opponents, even the second Buddhist sect, may be pulled down by Gu Zhan.

Secondly, our Xia Kingdom is not the only country in this world. If Gu Zhan really has some power in the world, with his current strength, he can easily bring chaos to the world and then cultivate masters in the realm of seeing gods, just like the first one more than two thousand years ago.

Emperor Yu Yang, who mastered the method of cave heaven, could easily dominate the world. I, Ji, would have gained more benefits if I had known his interests earlier, so why bother fighting with him at the risk of annihilation?

In addition, after last night’s battle, Gu Zhan has killed almost all those who dared to disagree. Even if there are still some who still think they are of noble birth and look down on Gu Zhan, they probably don’t dare to touch Gu Zhan’s brow!”

Ji Songlie frowned.

The third ancestor of the Ji family gently patted Ji Songlie on the shoulder and said: "Songlie, this world is different from three thousand years ago. Since the martial arts was created by the Martial Saint three thousand years ago, and the cave monks appeared two thousand years ago, the royal family, the royal family

, the emperor is no longer the pinnacle of this world, the real pinnacle is the group of top monks.

The real nobility in this world is not bloodline or status, but cultivation. From the moment Gu Zhan became the best in the world, and became the best in the world in a completely crushing manner, his status was already nobler than all of us.

,

Just like the two Buddhist sects in our Xia Kingdom, the Longhu Taoist sect of the Southern Jin Dynasty, and the Confucianism sect of the Northern Wei Dynasty, the world has been divided and reunited for more than two thousand years, and at most it divided sixteen kingdoms, but these three forces have always been

They are all there. Whoever they decide will be the emperor will be the emperor. If they want the world to be unified, the world will be unified. In this kind of world, there is really nothing noble about the royal family.

And Gu Zhan is now able to make all three forces fear him, and may even challenge these three forces to become the fourth martial arts holy land. Is there anything he can't do if he wants the throne?

The class distinctions in this world, pride and prejudice, noble and humble birth, shallow and broad knowledge, etc., are all meaningless in the face of absolute strength!"

Ji Songlie said doubtfully: "Third Ancestor, since you know it this way, and Your Majesty knows it the same way, why didn't you cooperate with the First Ancestor and the others to deal with Gu Zhan before?"

Ji Yi chuckled lightly and said: "This is the pride and prejudice that the Third Ancestor said. They think that if Gu Zhan can achieve that level of achievement, the more noble they are, the better they can do. I think whether it is the method of seeing the gods or Gu Zhan,

The unnecessary inheritance behind Zhan's death is because of Gu Zhan's current achievements.
