Chapter 1807: Who will inherit the throne of the Saint?
As the big boxes were opened one by one.
Countless gold and silver jewelry, antiques, jade, pearls, silk, etc. were displayed before people's eyes.
Especially those boxes of gold ingots, which made it almost impossible to open one's eyes under the sunlight.
Blind... They are almost blinded...
"The high priest is wise!"
Someone shouted excitedly.
Then, a deafening voice rang out.
"The high priest is wise!"
Everyone shouted loudly.
In their hearts, the high priest became increasingly unattainable.
Although it lacks a bit of mystery, it has a bit more of the brilliance of money.
Their high priest is not only the messenger of Sulamo, but also the patron saint of their southern border and their god of wealth!
Especially those powerful and wealthy businessmen, they had a glimmer of hope of getting their heirlooms back.
If they behaved well in front of the high priest, he might reward them...
When they thought of this, the hearts of all the powerful and wealthy businessmen began to beat wildly.
Sulamo! They must follow the high priest, follow his lead, and be loyal to him for the rest of their lives!
It has to be said that Tang Bao's high-profile actions have made Shiliu's position in southern Xinjiang even more rock-solid!
Shi Liu's eyes turned red as she looked at the boxes in front of the altar.
The lady really gave all these things to herself!
Shi Liu could feel that because of these things, everyone from the king of Southern Xinjiang to the common people looked at him with a lot more enthusiasm and admiration.
——Fanatical worship built up with money!
Because, now she is not only the high priestess of Southern Xinjiang, but also the richest high priestess in the history of Southern Xinjiang!
The lady is right, these will be the basis for her to gain a foothold in southern Xinjiang in the future!
As the saying goes, if you have money in hand, you will not be worried.
Shi Liu became more and more confident in his ability to rule southern Xinjiang.
Even if she has to use money, she can make all her subjects obey her!
Pomegranate looked at the Saint.
The saint's eyes were somewhat complicated.
No wonder my daughter made such a request. It turns out that this little princess is so devoted to my daughter.
She naturally understood how important these treasures were to her daughter and to southern Xinjiang.
The saint nodded slightly to Shi Liu, then looked at Tang Bao under the altar.
"Sulamo, I, Zhuo Shiya, will pass the title of Saintess to the Dual Princess Su Tang today!"
The saint's voice was as clear and cold as water, just like the feeling she gave people.
but--
What does this mean?
Why don’t they understand?
Everyone looked confused.
What did the saint say?
They must have heard it wrong!
Yes! I heard it wrong!
Tang Bao was also confused.
Su sugar?
Is there someone named Su Tang in Southern Xinjiang? Or is it Shuangjunzhu?
But why are you looking at me?
Tang Bao stared blankly at the saint on the altar, waving at herself.
Princess Linghua and Xia Siya looked at each other and almost jumped out of their seats with excitement.
"Sister Fuya, the Saint is calling you." Xia Siya said in a low voice.
"Su Tang, hurry up!" Princess Linghua also whispered.
Tang Bao was pushed onto the altar by two people in a daze.
The saint put a red shawl on Tang Bao's shoulders, then took Tang Bao's hand and looked at the people below the stage.
"From now on, she will be the new Saint of Southern Border!"
The saint's voice was not loud, but it was like thunder, which woke up the southern border subjects under the altar instantly and caused an uproar!
"How could this Saintess from Southern Xinjiang be from Dayan?"
"How can the princess of Dayan be the saint of Southern Xinjiang?"
"This is against the rules..."
“…”
At this time, not to mention ordinary people, even the king of Southern Xinjiang was full of disbelief.
Only Jing Man's face lit up with joy and his eyes were filled with surprise.
He was so far-sighted that he surrendered to the future high priest and saint so early!
Shi Liu was originally looking at Tang Bao with a smile, but when she heard the discussions below, her face immediately darkened.
"What? Are you not convinced?" Shi Liu snorted coldly and asked.
The southern border subjects under the altar: "..."
"High Priest, this... this is against the rules." A minister said stubbornly, "Princess Su is, after all, the princess of Dayan..."
"So what?" Shi Liu said proudly, "Princess Su is not only the princess of Dayan, but also the younger sister of the princess of Western Qin. Holding the golden imperial decree of Western Qin, she can supervise all officials, mobilize troops, and exercise the power of Her Majesty the Queen of Western Qin!"
As soon as Shi Liu finished speaking, the crowd exploded again.
"How is this possible?"
"Is the Queen of Western Qin crazy?"
"Doesn't this mean that this little princess is second only to one person in Western Qin and above ten thousand people?"
"Are the rulers and ministers of Western Qin all fools?"
"Yeah? Are you crazy? Why give a foreign princess such great power?"
The news released by Shi Liu once again refreshed their views.
Such a thing has never been heard of in history.
Could it be that Western Qin was annexed by Dayan?
Even so, shouldn't the person who should be granted the title be a princess?
You must know that this little princess is not from the royal family of Dayan.
A person of an outsider has such great power in Western Qin. Can the emperor of Dayan sit still?
Aren’t you afraid that this little princess might develop rebellious thoughts?
How can this be impossible...
Many people under the altar were talking about it, and the King of Southern Xinjiang understood something at this time.
The common people did not know the news from Western Qin. As the king, although he was just a mascot and did not have much real power, his status was there, and he still received some news from spies.
At this time, Pomegranate spoke again.
"If Princess Su can be the Imperial Sister of Western Qin, why can't she be the Saint of Southern Xinjiang?" Shi Liu looked at the minister who had spoken and asked, "Or, should I return all the gifts Princess Su has sent?"
"How can that be?" the minister blurted out.
"Why not?" Pomegranate showed a sarcastic expression.
Minister: "..."
Isn't it obvious?
If such a huge amount of wealth were returned, wouldn’t the national strength of southern Xinjiang be greatly weakened?
Although it was given to the high priest, what belongs to the high priest is equivalent to what belongs to Southern Xinjiang, right?
Shi Liu naturally understood what the minister meant.
"No reward without merit! I am not so shameless as to accept such a generous gift without giving anything in return!"
Minister: "..."
I opened my mouth, but couldn't say anything.
Not only was he speechless, but everyone else was speechless too.
What does it mean to take advantage of others?
This is called taking advantage of others!
However, they still felt uncomfortable that the position of the Saint was held by someone from another country.
After all, there's no precedent for this.
Many people looked at the former high priest.
They hoped that the former high priest would speak up to dissuade them.
In their view, the new high priest was young and impulsive, but the former high priest was knowledgeable and would definitely not allow the current high priest to act recklessly.
