"System prompt: All players, please note that the Han Emperor has been assassinated and the Emperor Star has fallen."
A short system prompt, few words, but a big deal.
All the players on the server were in disbelief when they heard this system prompt. The subsequent history of Dong Zhuo's Rebellion was completely overturned at this moment.
As the players were shocked, a new system prompt came out.
"System prompt: All players, please note that the Han Emperor has been assassinated. Han territory is left without an emperor. The mighty Han has lost its throne, and the world is chasing it. [Princes' Battle for Hegemony] is now open. All princes and players may claim the throne of emperor and receive the blessings of heaven and earth, becoming the legitimate ruler of the world."
As soon as the system prompt came out, the players were in an uproar again.
[The Battle of Princes] has arrived.
History becomes disordered and unpredictable, and players no longer know where the future will lead.
The player forum went crazy.
"Who killed the emperor?"
"Emperor Xian of Han is dead, and the struggle for supremacy among the princes of the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods is about to begin."
"The waters of Han land were completely muddy. During the Dong Zhuo Rebellion, people said that after the Dong Zhuo Rebellion, history would not strictly follow the trajectory and anything could happen. But no one expected that Emperor Xian of Han would be killed."
"Killed by the Champion Marquis?"
"Bullshit, Xiao Hange's strength is there. If he can get Emperor Xian of Han, he will be the Cao Cao of the new era. Unifying the Han territory will be a piece of cake."
"What if he wants to be emperor?"
"This may not be impossible."
"Now that the era of hegemony has begun, what should we do next?"
"You're still supposed to play the game the way you want to play it. The Age of Hegemony is the business of super guilds and those big forces. It has nothing to do with us ordinary players."
In the forum, many players were particularly surprised by the sudden death of Emperor Xian of Han.
The death of Emperor Xian of Han was equivalent to the killing of King You of Zhou. The world was without a ruler, and many heroes rose up. Chaos in the world was inevitable.
…
In Yanzhou, Cao Cao woke up in his mansion with a terrible headache. Hearing some noise outside, he hurriedly got up and left.
"Sir, you are awake." Cao Hong came over.
"What happened? There's an uproar outside the mansion."
"I heard someone say that the Emperor Star has fallen and something has happened in Chang'an."
"What?"
Cao Cao's expression changed in shock. He looked up and saw that where the Ziwei Emperor Star was, there were shooting stars everywhere, but the Emperor Star was nowhere to be seen.
…
In Jizhou, Yuan Shao saw a strange phenomenon in the sky and asked someone to take the sorcerer away. His eyes flickered and he hurriedly turned and went into the house.
The emperor was assassinated, and there was no emperor in Han territory.
…
In Nanyang, Jingzhou, Yuan Shu was shocked to hear that the Emperor Star had fallen. He hurried out of the house and laughed loudly towards the sky. The Ziwei Emperor Star disappeared, and the world was left without a master.
Suddenly, a general came running to report: "Sir, there is great news."
"explain."
"There's news that the Han Emperor's lost imperial seal is in Sun Jian's possession."
"Is this true?" Yuan Shu was overjoyed and asked his general.
"It's true. This is what Sun Jian obtained when he attacked Luoyang. It was witnessed by his soldiers and the people of Guannei Hou Yang Ji also saw it." The general said with certainty.
"Good, good, destiny is with me." Yuan Shu was ecstatic and cheered repeatedly: "Please invite Liu Biao to come and have a chat tomorrow. We have something important to discuss."
Also in Changsha, Jingzhou, Sun Jian saw a strange phenomenon in the sky, his expression changing with uncertainty. The imperial seal in his hand, now gleaming brightly, was wrapped in brocade.
…
The news of the Han emperor's murder spread throughout the world after several days, causing an uproar.
Everything happened too suddenly.
However, after everyone was shocked, there was no further news. The princes of the world remained silent about the death of the Han emperor and fell into a terrifying silence.
No one knew the truth. Even Li Jue and others were caught off guard by Liu Xie's death.
The instigator, Jia Xu, nominally "received orders" to return to Daxia two days before Liu Xie's death, and no one suspected him.
Amidst the storm outside, Jia Xu quietly entered Hanjiang City.
"My lord, I am back to report." In the study, Jia Xu bowed to Lin Han and said he was back to report.
"Sit down." Lin Han gestured for Jia Xu to sit down and poured him a cup of tea. "This journey is full of dangers. Returning safely is more important than anything else."
"Does anyone know about what happened in Chang'an? Does anyone doubt your identity?" Lin Han asked.
"No. Before the incident in Chang'an, I informed Li Jue and others to return to Daxia to report. After leaving the city, I returned in disguise. I left only after the Jinyiwei completed their mission." Jia Xu said in a low voice.
Lin Han nodded slightly.
"As for Shanggu Commandery in Youzhou, I have the governor's seal, identification badge, and decree. I can order people to move in. Juyongguan can serve as a barrier for Daxia."
Jia Xu took out the prefect's seal, identity card and the emperor's edict and handed them to Lin Han.
"Why do you suddenly want to kill Liu Xie?" Lin Han was puzzled.
"My lord, the Han Dynasty exists in name only. As long as the emperor is alive, some things will eventually be unreasonable. The world can have the surname Ying, the surname Chu, or the surname Liu. Why can't there be other surnames?" Jia Xu said firmly.
Lin Han nodded calmly, understanding what Jia Xu meant.
"That's right, go back and rest for two days, and don't let anyone else know about this."
Jia Xu smiled and said, "This trip is just a trip back to my hometown for a tour."
The two looked at each other and smiled.
He left at the beginning of Dong Zhuo's Rebellion and has returned since then. Except for Lin Han who knows the inside story and Cao Zhengchun who is in charge of the Jinyiwei, no one else knows where Jia Xu is.
In Hanjiang City, all the generals gathered together.
Sitting there were Bai Qi, Li Jing, Dian Wei, Ji Ling, Gan Ning, Zhao Yun, Xu Chu, Yue Fei, Man Chong, Tian Feng, Jia Xu, Xun Yu, Xi Zhicai, Chen Gong, Sang Hongyang, Bao Zheng and others.
An extremely luxurious lineup.
Anyone present here would be a leader in other forces, but in Lin Han's hands, they dare not show the slightest bit of pride.
Everyone looked serious and meticulous.
