Therefore, whether it is the buyers who lost their treasures, the people who coveted the red spider lilies, or the spectators who wanted to watch the fun...
At this moment, they are all gathered in the Phoenix Power Country. No matter how high the compensation offered by the other party is, there are only a few people who are willing to stop.
At this moment, the monarchs of those countries also turned their attention to the Phoenix Power Kingdom, which was at the center of the storm.
It was not because the empress killed her husband and the emperor to usurp the throne, but to put pressure on the empress and gain more benefits.
After all, as a king, whose past can be clean?
They are all just fighting their way through blood and sweat, and they are all standing on a mountain of bones to claim to be the king. Who can be more innocent than who?
Therefore, the kings of other countries do not care about the past of the Phoenix Power Kingdom, but now that the red spider lily monster has appeared in the world and has been bought by the royal family, they will of course stir up this muddy water and take the opportunity to fish in troubled waters.
For example, handing over the short-lived Lycoris radiata at the auction;
For example, ceding territory and paying compensation, or resorting to war on the grounds of illegitimate status;
For example, spreading public opinion and forcing the empress to carefully consider whether to abdicate or grant trade concessions...
The incident happened suddenly, and Prince Yi performed a blood sacrifice to his ancestors in public. The empress had not even seen him before and was caught off guard by this sudden bad news.
After the incident, the first time everyone saw the empress in person was after Prince Yi's blood was spilled at the palace gate.
The almighty empress, the extremely powerful empress, knelt in front of Prince Yi's body with an expressionless face, fixed his hair crown, wiped off the bloodstains on his face, called the guards, and buried him with the highest etiquette.
There are different opinions on this...
Some people believe that she was guilty and afraid of the curse, so she did some good deeds in the end, hoping to alleviate the resentment of King Yi and to have a smooth and peaceful life.
Some people think that she is determined and as the saying goes, a man with a clear conscience fears no slander. She disdains the slander of others, and even more disdains to argue with those people. She is just sad about the departure of her old friend, lamenting the misfortune of her fate, and angry at the viciousness of human nature. She actually uses Prince Yi, who has no interest in government affairs and has a pure mind, as a pawn. How vicious!
People thought she was guilty because she didn't shed a single tear from beginning to end;
People believed that she was sad because Prince Yi was someone she had watched grow up and she regarded him as her own brother. After ascending the throne, she even made an exception and made him, the deposed prince of the previous dynasty, the Prince Yi of the current dynasty.
It can’t be said that he doesn’t love me, and it can’t be said that he doesn’t care about me.
In short, the two sides are in opposition and neither will give in.
People with ulterior motives added fuel to the fire, hoping to stir up chaos in the world.
So... when Shen Wuyou appeared holding the incense burner, the situation had already evolved into the empress burning the bones of the royal family of the previous dynasty, and even grinding them into ashes to vent her anger!
Shen Wuyou:?
"No, when did it happen? I was only away for one night, wasn't I?"
She felt as if she had missed out on a hundred million.
Bai Yumo was studying the incense burner she had brought back, her eyes serious and growing more solemn...
Yan Qingli replied, "It really only happened in one night. In just one night, things have escalated to this extent. I'm sure those hostile forces are involved."
"Taking advantage of troubled waters..." Shen Wuyou commented, touching his chin.
Finally, he asked, "Do you want to help?"
After all, there is the relationship with Long Aojun.
Unexpectedly, the other party shook his head and said helplessly: "This is a power struggle and a political conspiracy between countries. It does not fall under the jurisdiction of Xuwang Mountain. We cannot interfere."
One of the reasons why Xuwang Mountain is superior to other countries is that Xuwang Mountain never cares about the mundane world, is not overly involved with the world, and does not exchange interests with other countries.
They are only responsible for protecting the world from evil spirits. They have no desires and live in seclusion from the world. In the eyes of the world, they are gods who save the world.
And if one day, the powerful gods begin to have selfish desires, then they will feel unfair to those who are not part of their selfish desires.
Once a god falls to the mortal world and is used by humans, others will also want to win over the god.
By then, everything in the world will no longer follow the rules, the balance will be unstable, and it will eventually lead to chaos in the world and people will suffer.
"I see..."
Shen Wuyou nodded, and then asked curiously:
"What about Long Aojun? Isn't his identity embarrassing?"
Do I really have to watch my mother being slandered and my country being destroyed while I can do nothing?
How helpless and hopeless that feeling must be...
"It depends on what he chooses," she explained.
"If he wants to help his motherland, he must temporarily abandon his status as a disciple of Xuwang Mountain and present himself solely as the Second Prince of Huangquan Nation. He must also not use any of the skills he learned in Xuwang Mountain."
"Like that time you came home?"
"That's right." She nodded.
Last time she went back as a minister of Northern Yan State and the eldest daughter of the Duke of Yan's Mansion, so when the killer slandered and the Emperor of Northern Yan attacked the Duke of Yan's Mansion, she was inevitably placed under house arrest in the mansion as a minister.
"I understand." Shen Wuyou understood, and then asked, "Then how did Long Aojun choose?"
Yan Qingli shook her head slowly.
Shen Wuyou suddenly cried out in surprise: "He can actually hold it in?!"
This was not in keeping with his fiery temper.
"It's not that he doesn't want to, but the Crown Princess doesn't agree." Yan Qingli explained.
"Because of the corpse puppet incident, Long Aojun almost made a big mistake. The Crown Princess thought he was too naive, brave but not wise, and would only make things worse. So she strictly stopped him from getting involved and even sent two secret guards to watch him to prevent him from showing up. Now he is locked up in his room and throwing a tantrum."
