Chapter 166 My dear ministers, please stand up

Southern boundary.

There are more than 10,000 demon countries of all sizes in the southern border.

Some of these demon countries are only as big as an ordinary human city.

The territories of some demon kingdoms are as large as the ten dynasties of the human race.

In the chaotic place of the Southern Border, national wars occur almost every day. Some demon countries are destroyed, some are annexed, and some are divided.

The only demon kingdom that remains standing is, like the human dynasties, ten of them.

One of the ten demon countries in the southern border, there is a demon country named Wanxiang.

On this day, the whole country of Wanxiang Demon Kingdom was shocked.

The eldest princess who disappeared ten years ago, and now the only bloodline of the late emperor of Vientiane Kingdom - Princess Bingsheng Bai Libing, is back.

There is no need for a blood test or verification of background or identity.

The Baifeng Honghu bloodline in Bai Libing's body is the best proof.

When Bai Libing returned to the Demon Capital of Wanxiang Kingdom under the escort of Black Dog and Bifang, before he even entered the city, civil and military officials were already lining up outside the city to greet him.

Looking at the civil and military officials, among whom there were familiar faces as well as unfamiliar faces, Bai Libing walked forward slowly without any fear.

After returning to the palace, Bai Libing took a bath with the help of the palace maids and then changed into the palace dress of the royal family of Vientiane.

Bai Libing walked into the imperial study, looking a little dazed.

Ten years ago, it was also in this familiar room.

My father was reviewing memorials and my mother was serving him. If I had nothing to do, I would go to the palace from time to time.

But now, his father died in that rebellion, his brothers are all dead, and his mother is still unknown whether her body has been found or her whereabouts are unknown.

Bai Libing also learned about this on the way back to Vientiane Kingdom, as she was the only one left in this huge palace.

After his bloodline was sealed by his mother and he was forcibly sent out of the Kingdom of Vientiane, his mother disappeared without a trace. Apart from that, no one knew what happened.

The prime minister and the great pillar of Vientiane led the forces loyal to the royal family and continued to fight against the rebels.

It took another three years for the imperial court to quell the rebellion. All the rebellious princes and vassal kings were killed, and peace returned to Vientiane.

But the current Vientiane Kingdom is only calm on the surface.

Because all the princes of Vientiane had died, leaving only the eldest princess in exile, many people believed that she was dead as well, so they proposed that a relative of the royal family should inherit the throne.

However, the Prime Minister and the Grand Pillar of Vientiane refused, saying that it was too early to choose a relative of the royal family as the king, and the eldest princess could still be found.

Although many people disagreed with the words of the Prime Minister and the Grand Pillar of Vientiane, the civil and military officials were unable to reach a unified opinion because they also had their own royal relatives to support them.

Different people wanted the person they supported to be the King of Vientiane, but they couldn't reach a consensus, so they simply left the position vacant with the name "Her Royal Highness the Princess is not dead, we are looking for Her Royal Highness the Princess."

The state affairs of Vientiane were naturally resolved through consultation between the prime minister and the cabinet.

In addition, the reason why the Prime Minister of Vientiane and the Great Pillar of the State were able to suppress the rebellion was because they had the support of many princes and generals behind them.

Are they just loyal to the royal family? Some, but most of them just want to take sides and gain greater benefits.

After the rebellion is quelled, don't you need to reward them?

As a result, the territories of those princes who were destroyed were divided up.

Today, the power of the princes of Vientiane has not only not been weakened, but has become even stronger.

Although the Vientiane Kingdom seems to be a huge country, it is actually showing signs of falling apart.

If it weren't for the fact that there are too many monster kingdoms in the southern border, many monsters are eyeing Vientiane Kingdom, and Vientiane Kingdom is also adjacent to Wu Kingdom, they must maintain a certain degree of unity, at least maintain the appearance of "an elephant that is about to die of illness is still an elephant", if it weren't for the fact that the Bai royal family of Vientiane Kingdom has been nurturing scholars for two thousand years.

Otherwise, they would have established their own country long ago.

Bai Libing sat in her father's seat, somewhat absent-minded, with mixed feelings in her heart.

She missed her mother, her father, and the man who always called her "big stupid goose". In fact, Bai Libing knew that her best choice was not to come back.

Because what if I came back?

Can I command these court officials? Can I make all the princes obey me?

In the eyes of most people, I am just a puppet, a tool to allow them to maintain their power.

But Bai Libing knew that she had to come back.

I come back for those who can't come back.

For the sake of his dead father, his dead brothers, and his mother whose whereabouts are unknown, he must protect this territory and not let it fall into the hands of others.

And can I not come back? If I don't come back, it will bring endless trouble to Xu Ming.

"Your Highness, it's time for us to meet the courtiers."

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Bifang Miaohuo had already changed into a set of palace clothes at this time and was serving Bai Libing, becoming Bai Libing's personal bodyguard.

"Let's go." Bai Libing nodded.

There have been female emperors in the history of Vientiane Kingdom, so even if Bai Libing is a woman, she can still become an emperor.

But there is still a need to follow a charter.

"The princess is here!"

In Fengming Palace, Bifang's voice kept echoing.

The ministers who had already arrived hurriedly saluted: "Greetings, Her Royal Highness the Princess!"

Bai Libing walked to the throne on the high platform, but in the end, she sat on the stool next to the throne.

"It is a blessing for Vientiane that Her Royal Highness the Princess can return to Vientiane. Now the Wan Yao Kingdom needs the princess to take charge of the situation!" An official stepped forward and shouted loudly.

"The Kingdom of Vientiane cannot be without a ruler for a day! I beg Your Highness the Princess to guard Vientiane!"

"I beg Your Highness Princess to guard Vientiane!"

The ministers bowed to Bai Libing one by one.

It seems that they really want her to ascend the throne. In fact, Bai Libing knows that they must do this. She sits on this position not just because she is the princess of Vientiane.

Rather, it is because this is the result of a trade-off among various interest groups.

Glancing at the crowd - Vientiane Prime Minister Qishan, Vientiane Grand Pillar Lin Wu, Vientiane State Master Guangchen, and the Minister of Personnel, many court officials felt Bai Libing's gaze and didn't know what she was doing. They even felt a little unhappy in their hearts.

You should quickly refuse a few times, and then we will ask for permission again. After you refuse two or three times, it will be enough and everyone will save face.

Then you just need to be a vase.

but.

Her Royal Highness the Princess said nothing.

Bai Libing stood up, sat directly on the throne, and stretched out his hand:

"My dear ministers, please stand up."

Xu Ming, you always talk about the dirty court.

Now, I'm going to take a look.
