Chapter 25 New King
[Ding~ding~ding~]
The system sounded.
Ji Zhao woke up from a deep sleep, his pupils gradually turning golden, "Is something major going to happen?"
With a quick glance at the development of Bangzhou, he immediately realized that Bangzhou was on the eve of a situation where the situation was difficult to reverse and contradictions were concentrated.
If there is just one more unreliable monarch who launches a major failed reform, he will most likely die suddenly.
Although history has changed slightly, the accumulation of social contradictions cannot be changed by human will. Over the years, he has gained a deeper understanding of destiny and realized that everything will return to normal.
According to his judgment, the course of history is about to enter a period of the collapse of rituals and music, and frequent wars among nations. Even the Luo family will begin to face a real crisis.
The luck that has been accumulated since the Luo Su period has become very large by now, reaching 340,000, a quarter of which was contributed by Luo Su alone.
Since it is such a historical juncture, we still need to prepare some props. "Take out 300,000 and leave 40,000 to deal with it."
[You have obtained a yellow-level item. ]
[You have obtained a yellow-level item. ]
【……】
[You have obtained a Xuan-level item. ]
【……】
[You have obtained a Xuan-level item. ]
There are thirty times of ten consecutive draws, and there are thirty guaranteed yellow items alone, plus extra yellow items drawn, and two Xuan-level items drawn.
Ji Zhao's inventory suddenly became abundant.
First of all, there are the strongest heaven-grade and earth-grade props. A total of 5 items have been obtained, one has been used, and 4 are left. The heaven-grade props can reverse the destiny of the dynasty, and the earth-grade props can change people's hearts and realities. Each one has unpredictable power.
[① Heavenly Rank·Heavenly Man Card (How could one be like this if not the incarnation of a god?): Use this card to instantly become the incarnation of eternal wisdom. The three-dimensional attributes are upgraded to 100. As a prime minister, you can stabilize the country, comfort the people, provide food and supplies, and ensure that the army has an uninterrupted supply of food. As a strategist, you can make plans in the tent and win battles thousands of miles away. As a general, you can lead millions of troops to win every battle and take every city.
②Tianjie·Sitianjiantai (If you own this, you are a god): This is a national treasure. Users can build it according to the blueprint. After it is built, they can stand in it to adjust the celestial phenomena of a country and bless the dynasty with good weather and good harvests.

Although Xuan-grade items are not as powerful as Tian-grade and Di-grade items, they are also extremely rare and unique. This time, out of the thirty draws, only two Xuan-grade items were drawn, which shows how rare they are.
[①Xuanjie·Qianli Fu (The ends of the earth will arrive in an instant, the assassin will kill him, and he will have nowhere to escape): Use this talisman and think silently in your mind, and you can appear at any place instantly.

⑤ Xuan Tier·Heavenly Soldiers (Not created by humans, but created by nature): The user can select 3,000 people to become heavenly soldiers, and after a month of training, they can obtain a corps that is disciplined on the battlefield, fearless, strong, proficient in weapons, warfare, and horsemanship. 】

June Snow ×3: A heavy snowfall occurs at a designated time and place.
A shower of sweet rain: rain falls at a designated time and place.

Medicine Talisman × 2: This talisman can be dissolved in water and taken, and can instantly cure difficult and complicated diseases. It can only save one person.
Guards x 12: Summons 10 puppet guards with a force value of 80, which can be used as guards. If there are more of these cards, you can form an elite assault team.
Speed is of the essence: It can increase the marching speed of an infantry corps of no more than 50,000 people by 30% without consuming much physical strength.
Whiteboard props x 384 (There are no junk props, only people who don’t know how to use them. These props will bring unimaginable benefits)]
Ji Zhao felt that relying solely on these props was not safe enough, because the further back in history went, the more difficult it would be for the Luo family to gain greater influence, and the speed of acquiring props would become slower.
The starting point was too high, which allowed Ji Zhao to directly obtain the heavenly-grade props, but it also meant that many small props could only be obtained through lotteries, which was truly a blessing in disguise.
…
Ho Kyung.
After the palace maid informed him, Luo Houlin went up to the palace to pay his respects to Emperor Ci. Emperor Ci was sitting in front of the imperial desk. When he saw Luo Lin coming in, he smiled and said, "Lord Luo is so anxious. Do you have something important to tell me?"
After paying his respects, Luo Lin replied, “I heard that Your Majesty wanted to conquer the Quanrong, so I came to advise you.
Five years ago, you interfered in the succession of the princes, which made them unhappy.
Now that we are at war with the Quanrong, I am worried that it may lead to bad consequences.
When my ancestor Duke Wen died in the past, I advised King Zhao that the emperor's army should not be moved lightly, as unforeseen events would occur if it was defeated.
There are Marquis Shen and Marquis Zeng in the northwest, so why should we trouble you to lead a large army to conquer them?"
Ji Ci was naturally unhappy when he heard this, but considering Luo's status, he did not get angry.
But he still said coldly: "I am not a monarch like King Zhou and King Li. Even if your ancestors, King Su and Duke Wen were still alive, they would surely praise me as a sage king. Lord Luo is worrying too much."
"Your Majesty, you are naturally a Holy King, but..." Luo Lin wanted to persuade him again, but Ji Ci said directly: "Lord Luo just came back from Nanshen Kingdom, he must be tired, go down and rest."
Luo Lin was helpless. With the passing of a large number of famous ministers who restored the country, the emperor had become more and more arbitrary in recent years. He would not listen to the advice of his ministers, and he could not support himself.
The prestige of the Luo family within the royal family has been declining day by day since the death of Duke Wen of Luo.
The Luo family's status is no longer the undisputed number one among the princes as before.
Especially in Luo Lin's generation, when King Huang was in power and the republic was in power, he could only rank fourth and even lost his position as one of the Three Dukes.
Now I know that there are problems everywhere, just like a house that is leaking and I can only do my best to patch it up.
The feeling of having his flesh cut by a soft knife made him feel very uncomfortable. There were too many problems and he didn't know where to start. What was the use of having the divine weapon in his hand?
Ji Zhao, who was increasingly influenced by reality, shook his head. Luo Lin himself did not have the talent to be a famous minister who could turn the tide of the revival of the country. His current achievements were the result of his hard work.
[Luo Lin: Power Struggle: 82; Governing the Country: 78; Controlling People: 81; Commanding: 79; Military Strength: 71; Military Strategy: 76]
This data template cannot be said to be bad. For most families, if talents of this level can appear from generation to generation, it would be a great honor to have them.
But for the Luo family, a clan leader who is in charge of the dynasty's national policies, a head of the family who has no shortcomings and is merely mediocre cannot save a country that is going downhill.
In Ji Zhao's opinion, if it was Luo Su, if he was given 20 to 30 years, he should be able to barely prolong his life for another 60 to 70 years. By then, it would be truly too late to reverse the situation.
…
In the thirty-seventh year, the king attacked Tiao Rong and Ben Rong and defeated them in Qingyang.
In the thirty-ninth year, the king attacked Tiao Rong and Jiang Rong and was defeated at Qianmu.
The Zhou Dynasty, which had been prosperous for forty years, suddenly fell into a deep gloom. The princes of the world became even more restless, and the princes and ministers in the capital were also talking about it.
collapse.
Posthumous title: "Xuan".
The eldest son, Jine, succeeded to the throne.
…
Luo State.
In the palace, most people have a very bright red dot between their eyebrows, which adds a touch of solemnity to the whole person.
This is a strange phenomenon that appeared after Ji Zhao's influence on reality became stronger and stronger. All the direct descendants of the Luo family will have this red dot. Currently, there are only a few dozen people in the entire public office.
Luo Houlin had an old face. He held Luo Cheng's hand tightly, looked at the people in the office, and said in a voice full of reluctance: "I am very ill, I am afraid I have to follow King Su.
But I am unwilling to give up.
I succeeded to the throne for fifty years and served the emperor for decades. I drove out tyrannical rulers like King Huang and ruled the country together with Duke Shao, Duke Ding, Duke Qi, Duke Jin and others.
When the king ascended the throne, he worked hard to govern the country, and the people were in harmony. He pacified the Yundi in the north and the Quanrong in the west.
I do not have the extraordinary talents of my ancestors King Su and Duke Wen, but I have also made many contributions to the Zhou Dynasty, the most important of which is the defeat of the rebellion of the State of Chu.
What a prosperous time it was! The decline since the reign of King Huang was swept away, the rule of Wu Kang reappeared, and the Holy King ruled the world!
I have seen the prosperity of the Zhou Dynasty."
The sobbing sounds in the room all disappeared, and Luo Lin's voice was filled with resentment, "As the Son of Heaven, you interfered with the succession of the throne of an important minister, abolished the eldest son without any cover-up and without reason, is this what a Saint King should do?
It was King Xuan's fault that complaints arose among the vassal states. Without the assistance of wise men, how could there be a sage king to rule the country?
This led to the two subsequent defeats, and twenty years of hard work were destroyed in an instant."
At this point, Luo Cheng felt the hand holding him getting stronger and stronger, and even his veins bulged. Luo Houlin glanced at everyone, and finally stared at Luo Cheng and said, "I am incompetent and cannot help the country. I have failed the expectations of the Su King.
But my son is a natural hero, with the appearance of Su Wang Wen Gong, he will definitely be able to take on great responsibilities, and he must be brave enough to make progress in the future. My son, you must remember that Su Wang is watching over the descendants of our Luo family, don't let him down! "
As he spoke, he took off the ring on his finger and put it on Luo Cheng's hand, "This is the family head's token passed down from the time of King Su. I give it to you today."
Everyone cried and said, "My Lord, why do you have to be so self-deprecating? It is your credit that our Luo Kingdom has grown stronger and stronger, and the royal family has become more prominent over the years. You deserve to meet King Su and Duke Wen."
Luo Cheng was the only one in the room who knew what his father said. He held the ring tightly and said with tears in his eyes, "Don't worry, father. I will try my best and live up to the expectations of the Su Wang Patriarch. When I succeed, I will come to your grave and let you know."
"Good! Good!" Luo Lin gradually let go of Luo Cheng's hand and slowly raised it up into the air. A smile of surprise suddenly appeared on his face, and he said happily: "King Su, you came to see Lin. Is Lin not that bad? Lin..."
His voice stopped abruptly and his arms dropped down. Ji Zhao sat cross-legged in the air silently, and a sound of sad crying was heard in the office.
Another generation has passed away. He has become accustomed to it, but he is increasingly unable to remain indifferent.
As his influence on reality grew, after Luo Su's death, he would appear and see off almost every generation of Luo Hou when they died.
Except for Luo Cheng, everyone thought that Luo Lin just had hallucinations before he died. This happened to almost every generation of Luo Hou before they died.
"The destiny of the state of Zhou is burning fiercely. After the glory, there is the flickering candlelight. Although it is weak, it has not yet died out. If we make the right choice, there is still a chance to recover."
Ji Zhao's voice rang in Luo Cheng's ears. Luo Cheng, with tears in his eyes, nodded heavily and whispered: "Grandmaster Su Wang, I understand, I understand."
Ji Zhao actually lied. As his family existed longer and longer over the years, his understanding of this world became deeper and deeper.
History can be changed. The existence of Luo State has changed the fate of many people, but the trend will not change. Luo Su sealed the three clans of Jiang, Shen and Ying in Fenghao. This is the destiny.
The destiny of the Western Zhou Dynasty is about to end. If the Luo family just wants to save themselves, it is very simple, but if they want to reverse the destiny of the Western Zhou Dynasty, they need at least one heavenly item.
Heavenly-grade items are true divine artifacts that can offset the effects of historical correction forces.
Ji Zhao only has two heavenly-grade items, and he won’t use them here.

With Luo Cheng's abilities and attributes, there would be no problem for him to be a capable minister who governs the country, but there is no hope for him if he wants to go against the will of heaven.
Perhaps these props can give him a slight chance of winning.
Luo Cheng himself did not have a great reputation among the princes of the world, especially in the military of the royal capital. The princes in the capital had become increasingly powerful in recent years.
However, the reputation of the Luo royal family among the entire royal family, royal family, army, and people is still very good, and the contributions of the eight generations of Luo Hou in serving the king will not be erased.
Such a high reputation of the family means that as long as Luo Cheng does a few things in front of the people of the world, his reputation will skyrocket.
The news of Luo Lin's death soon spread to the princes in all directions. Luo Cheng arranged the funeral for his father and sorted out the affairs of Luo State one by one. Then he went to Haojing to prepare to take over his father's position.
…
In the past, King Huang’s rule was chaotic and the Zhou Dynasty declined. King Xuan revived the country and restored the Zhou Dynasty.
However, if the thousand acres were not registered, the southern country would lose its army, and the beauty of the restoration would not be complete. - "Historical Records·Zhou Benji"
