"Report! Huge changes in the Miao Kingdom!"

Great Zhou, in the imperial palace of Shangjing City.

When Liang Jing was dealing with memorials, the commander of the Western Factory suddenly ran in hurriedly.

He shouted loudly, "Report! Your Majesty, the Miao King has suddenly passed away. The news they spread is that the Miao King was too excited when he was doing something shameful with a palace maid, so he died immediately."

"But according to our deduction, it's definitely not that simple. Someone must have seized power. It must be the high priest. The Miao Kingdom has undergone tremendous changes in recent times."

"I heard that the Han Empire has been urging the Miao Kingdom to send troops as soon as possible to weaken the power of Shu Kingdom and our Great Zhou."

"It's just that the Miao King has been hesitant to act, and the ministers in Chaozhou don't dare to say anything. But the one who opposes the most is the High Priest Luo Feng. As a former general, he holds the military power in his hands."

"He has always wanted revenge and wanted to avenge his previous humiliation. He has been urging the Miao King to send his troops as soon as possible. The imperial court has also been urging him to do so, but the Miao King has remained unmoved."

"I guess they'll send troops soon. We'll join forces."

Liang Jing frowned when he heard this. This was something they could imagine. After all, the relationship between the Miao Kingdom and the Han Empire was not simple.

If it weren't for the Han Empire, the Miao Kingdom would not have attacked the coalition forces of Shu and Zhou so quickly.

This matter is a foregone conclusion, and they all know it!

It has to be said that this matter was extremely bad. Thinking of this, Liang Jing hurriedly called Shangguan Yun and Wang Xiangguo, hoping that the two of them could come up with some moves.

"Your Majesty, we are located in the southwestern three kingdoms, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack. However, there is a very bad point. If the Miao Kingdom attacks us from the inside, it will put us in a very passive position."

"If the Great Zhou and Shu Kingdom unite, they will certainly be very powerful, but the Miao Kingdom is no ordinary opponent. Moreover, the high priest will definitely do whatever it takes to weaken our strength."

"Then we will have no choice but to defend. This will definitely weaken our strength. If the Emperor of the Han Empire sends troops, we may not be able to resist at all."

Shangguan Yun said this with a very sad look on his face. He was very clear about the gap in strength between the two sides. Besides, the Miao Kingdom did not really want to take them down, but just wanted to weaken its own strength.

This is an open conspiracy and there is no solution.

No way, this is really bad...

Prime Minister Wang also sighed, and he explained helplessly, "Your Majesty, the general is right."

"There's really no solution to this problem at the moment. We can only try to delay it. We're being attacked from both sides. If Lu Yun were here."

"Perhaps things wouldn't have become so passive, but right now our army is simply not on the same level as the enemy's."

"What should I do..."

Liang Jing listened to their analysis and felt inexplicably sad. That man, the man who was very vague in his memory.

Is he still alive now? I don’t know where he is.

Is he really that powerful? Can he lead the team to a victory despite being surrounded by enemies?

"Oh...try harder."

"We can only try our best. If all else fails, we'll have to fight to the bitter end."

"General, you should practice Pegasus more often in the near future. I believe the enemy will attack us soon."

"yes!"

At this moment, Prime Minister Wang suddenly remembered something, "Your Majesty, perhaps we still have a way."

"Please speak, my Lord Prime Minister."

"That is to seek help from the Savage Kingdom of the Grassland. When Eunuch Lu was here, he had a very good relationship with the Queen of the Grassland. The Savage Kingdom of the Grassland will definitely be willing to help us."

"They don't have to worry. Even if we can't defeat them, they can still escape and run to the grassland. The grassland is so vast that the emperor won't chase them directly to the grassland. He won't be able to find their whereabouts at all. There is no need to worry about this."

"Alright! I'll send them a letter right away. I hope the grassland queen can help us, Great Zhou."

In fact, they didn't know whether the queen of the grassland would help or not, so they could only give it a try. What if it worked? What if there was such a possibility?

…

Western continent.

Holy Empire, City of Athens.

In the past few days, after preparing everything, Felicius began to prepare for his own seizure of power.

When the people in Parliament learned that the Queen had completely ignored the affairs and handed all power to the Pope, they were all furious.

In fact, they had pushed the Queen out before so that she could fight against the Pope. The Pope's power was growing, which was seen by these old men, but they could do nothing about it.

But now the Queen has passed away and doesn't want to deal with such matters at all. She has thrown all the problems to the Parliament, and the Parliament is speechless.

These old men had no choice but to fight Filixiu to the end.

House of Parliament.

It was a huge mansion next to the imperial palace castle, which was equivalent to the largest power center of their Holy Empire.

Every order issued here is extremely important to the Holy Empire. Generally, the Queen will convey it to her subordinates through the Parliament.

However, now the Queen doesn't want to care at all, which makes them look very bad.

Just now, Pope Filius came to the parliament. He looked at this group of nobles and old men and shouted angrily.

"Everyone, the Queen has now handed over power to me."

"As Pope, I must lead our Holy Empire towards a brighter future."

"What do you think?"

"I advise you not to resist, but to obey me obediently, instead of trying to stop me one by one. Is this appropriate?"

After hearing his words, these old men lost their composure, and the leader of the council scolded loudly.

"Felix, you must never forget where your power as the Pope comes from. It is all given to you by our Parliament and the Queen. Otherwise, your power as the Pope is limited to your Holy See."

"The Holy Empire can never belong to you, the Pope. You should just do your job well. Why are you fighting for this right?"

"The Holy See should not be involved in such matters."

However, Felicius didn't listen to any of this. He said nonchalantly, "And then?"

"Why can't the Holy See get involved in this matter?"

"Once the Holy See gains power, we will be able to better control the Holy Empire and make our empire even stronger. Isn't that a good thing?"
