Feng Wenzhuo was the only heir of the original Dongyang clan. Now that these people were dead, it was only natural that King Cheng Qian Yechen, as the emperor's brother, would become the first heir.
At that moment, Ye Lixuan's only thought was to act quickly. After confirming the death of the emperor and the princes, he immediately supported Qian Yechen's ascension to the throne.
He was really depressed during this period.
After the unification of the six kingdoms, Qian Yeming gathered together all the civil and military officials of the courts of the six kingdoms of Nanyue, Northern Wei, Dongyang, Dongxiang, Western Jin and Xiliang, and then used the method of survival of the fittest to assess those officials who were willing to be loyal to the court.
There were only so many official positions, and now ministers from all six dynasties were vying for those already scarce ones. And he, once a first-rank minister of the Ministry of Works, had fought tooth and nail in this competition for official positions, only to end up with a third-rank minister of the Ministry of Rites, a worthless position.
Although this third-rank official position is not small, considering that Prince Cheng and Prince Li once harmed the emperor, Ye Lixuan should be grateful to the emperor for being able to get a third-rank official position.
It’s not that he doesn’t know how to be content, but... it’s that the duty of this damn Honglu Temple is to entertain foreign guests.
To entertain foreign guests!!!
Damn it, this is such a bummer!
The Kyushu continent has been completely unified, becoming the Kyushu Kingdom. There's only one country on the entire continent, and on weekdays, you won't even see a single pirate, let alone a foreign guest. What the hell is the Honglu Temple, which is used to entertain foreign guests, for?
This third-rank official wasn't just cheating his father, he was cheating his ancestors! The entire Honglu Temple, including him as the official, and his minions, only had ten people in total!
Now he finally encountered such an unprecedented divine punishment. It was probably because God took pity on him that the several unshakable mountains standing in front of him collapsed completely in an instant, which allowed him to see the light.
If he still can't make use of it, then he truly deserves God's punishment!
But now, looking at the intact Tie Shicheng, Ye Lixuan's excitement was instantly extinguished by the ice water.
"master!"
Behind him, Ye Lixuan's men returned from King Cheng.
After the Chengwang Mansion was taken away by Ji Feng, Chengwang Qianyechen was so enraged that he fell seriously ill and his health deteriorated. Since he no longer posed a threat to Qianyeming, Baili Xiao later returned the Chengwang Mansion to him.
After obtaining the Chengwang Mansion, Qian Yechen never appeared in the court again, and never even stepped out of the Chengwang Mansion.
Just after the thunder tribulation, Ye Lixuan immediately sent someone to Prince Cheng's Mansion to inform Qian Yechen, thinking that he would be very happy after knowing it, and then rekindle his fighting spirit.
Who knew——
"Master, His Royal Highness King Cheng has sent me a message to you. He said that he does not believe he has the talent to rule the world. In the past, he could not even conquer Nanyue, let alone the huge Kyushu Kingdom.
His Royal Highness King Cheng said that if any one of Qian Yeming, Baili Yi, Baili Han, Baili Feng, or Feng Wenzhuo survived, they would all become unrivaled emperors. However, if they all died, the Jiuzhou Kingdom would surely be divided again, becoming the target of division by various factions.
His Royal Highness Prince Cheng asked the master to spare his life and let him be a leisurely prince without ideals and ambitions. The emperor's decision to spare his life was already the greatest gift to him. After the previous battle for the throne, he was tired of fighting.
