Although Qi and Su also believed that Li could not defeat the other three countries, they were both very clear.

The reason for the three countries' alliance was not only because Li Kingdom only provoked An, Chu and Wu Kingdom, so An, Chu and Wu Kingdom only united the three countries and did not unite with other countries to target Li Kingdom.

Except that the three countries of An, Chu and Wu looked down on small countries like them and believed that there was no need for them to intervene in dealing with a small country like Li.

Another reason is that the other three countries did not trust these small countries and were worried that they would make small moves or stab them in the back on the battlefield.

Even whether it was Chu State, An State or Wu State, all three countries believed that they could defeat Li State with their own strength.

The reason why they chose to unite and attack the State of Li was that the three countries were checking and balancing each other and were suspicious and wary of each other.

If the State of Chu attacked the State of Li with its own military force, and if the States of An and Wu had ulterior motives, they would secretly help the State of Li while the war between the two sides was raging, and deliberately approach the State of Chu under the pretext of attacking the State of Li.

If the other party took the opportunity to attack Chu Guo from behind...

Chu Guo judged others by himself. If they were in his shoes, they would definitely take advantage of the situation.

Therefore, the State of Chu took the opportunity to unite with the States of An and Wu to first suppress the State of Li that wanted to jump around.

Because of this behavior, the people of Li and the ministers became more resentful towards Bai Zhirou and her companions.

When Baizhirou came to power, although there were complaints and dissatisfaction, due to the fear of life threats, no one dared to complain.

Moreover, at that time, because Baizhirou gave women the option of becoming officials and leaving the harem, some women in the society also admired her.

But now, in the eyes of everyone, the actions of Zhui Yao and Li Hua Shi are tantamount to the destruction of the entire Li Kingdom, so the desperate ministers and people started a civil war.

Wanmin pleaded, hoping that Baizhirou would hand over Zhui Yao and Li Huashi as an apology.

Baizhirou didn't say anything, just issued an order.

Anyone who causes riots in the streets will be killed without mercy.

If there are many rioters, it will be regarded as a city-wide rebellion and the entire city will be massacred.

At the beginning, some people who did not believe in evil united together, hoping to use their numbers to resist and force those in power to not punish the majority.

Baizhirou lost the support of the people.

The great general who had stayed behind from the previous dynasty took this opportunity to send out a message, preparing to stir up civil unrest.

Li Huashi thought about it and decided that the mob was easy to deal with and there were many solutions.

The easiest thing is to kill them all.

But this is a bit of a waste of time and not interesting.

Killing all the people in your own country first in order to deal with foreign enemies is a very bad strategy.

Most people are dead now, who will make money for me?

Another method is to guard the gates of the palace and use mechanisms and the snake tamer's poisonous snakes as threats to isolate them outside.

Then they arrested a group of people and threatened them to stop in front of everyone. If they didn't stop, they would kill them and arrest another group of people.

This process was repeated until they were forced to admit defeat for the sake of their loved ones.

But this move is not the best strategy, it can only be considered a medium strategy.

Li Huashi's best strategy is to let the military advisor, in the capacity of the state advisor, announce to the people that the current empress is the one chosen by heaven, a true dragon who will unify the world and lead the people into a peaceful and prosperous age.

And everything that is happening now is the only way for the empress to lead the people of the world into a prosperous era.

If not for this, it would be impossible for the current empress, as a woman, to cause a change of dynasty overnight and sit on the throne.

In order to convince everyone, the imperial teacher also announced to the people that the empress could use her divine power to bring the dead back to life.

He also built a sacrificial altar outside the palace and demonstrated it in person in front of the people.

Bai Zhirou even threatened that if she could not bring the dead back to life, she, Zhui Yao, Li Huashi and others would be willing to die to apologize to other countries!

There are people who do not believe this, but there are also many who do believe it.

After all, the ancients had little knowledge and were mostly ignorant, so many of them believed in gods.

On this day, escorted by a group of 500 soldiers, Bai Zhirou's carriage slowly appeared in front of everyone from the palace.

I don’t know if it was because the army’s momentum was too majestic, or when some people saw Baizhirou actually dared to show up, they had already secretly believed in their hearts that the current empress was a real dragon incarnated into the world.

Yes, if there was no real dragon coming to the world, how could a woman become the ruler of a country overnight?

Both sides of the road were crowded with people.

Some were whispering, some were looking unfriendly, and some were expectant and nervous.

"Is it really a real dragon?" "But how can a real dragon be a woman?" "Resurrection from the dead? It can't be some kind of trick by some street performer, right?"

. . .

The national teacher stood on the altar and spoke majestically, "In case there are villains from other countries who want to disrupt the ceremony and offend the majesty of the True Dragon, before the ceremony is over, anyone who dares to make noise, question, or cause a commotion will be killed immediately!"

The spies from other countries who were originally mixed in with the people and were ready to make a move immediately gave up their thoughts and did not dare to act rashly for the time being.

I thought it would be the same anyway if I exposed this dog emperor after the ceremony.

Bai Zhirou got off the carriage and, supported by a group of maids, walked slowly to the altar and finally stood beside the imperial master.

The national teacher bowed to Bai Zhirou, performed a solemn salute, and then stood up and looked at the people below the stage.

"If there are any of you who suspect that the real dragon will use juggling tricks to deceive people, you can come on stage and experience it for yourself! Participate in it!"

For a moment, the people below who heard this did not dare to speak and avoided his gaze.
