Chapter 157 The Army Sets Out to Dongyin
The Dream God Chang Yuan controls all dreams, and his dream-making skills have long been mastered. Therefore, when the people woke up, somewhat bewildered, they discovered that the land distribution was just a dream. The Great Xia still ruled, and Emperor Li Min'an, supported by the Hundred Changes Star Lord, had not yet ascended the throne! Although the people kept silent, they secretly hoped that Li Min'an would ascend the throne so that they could distribute land to the common people. He was truly a good emperor; otherwise, the gods in heaven would not have descended to help!
The common people all thought so, eager for Li Min'an to ascend the throne immediately. They secretly inquired about the situation and learned that this future emperor was none other than the immortal Li who had risen up in Dongyin!
So, the people didn't act rashly on the surface, but secretly they were all hoping that Li Min'an would quickly lead his troops to conquer all directions, come out of Dongyin, and take over other places!!! In any case, they all supported him!
The emperor in the capital also dreamed of these things, especially when he saw the scene of Li Min'an ascending the throne. Those lowly people actually shouted "Long live Li Min'an", as if they wanted Li Min'an to live forever. Then he saw Li Min'an distributing the land to those untouchables. How could those untouchables deserve to own land?
Don't you know that when the common people are rich, they will cause chaos? We must keep these people hungry. Only when they are hungry can they continue to work. If everyone can eat well, won't chaos and chaos arise frequently?
Emperor Gao Xi was so angry that he smashed many things. The eunuch Wei Zhong tried to persuade him, but it was useless. In the end, the emperor smashed his head with a cup and then arranged for him to receive treatment. The way of the emperor is not something that everyone can learn. The people are like ants, and the emperor is supreme. Gao Xi is not afraid of Li Min'an, even if the other party has the endorsement of a god, Gao Xi is not afraid, he just hates him!
He hated the fact that Li Min'an had lifted up the people and even wanted to distribute land to those untouchables. This was a heinous crime!!!
So Gao Xi immediately ordered someone to summon General Shao Rongwei, but he didn't know that General Shao Rongwei was already with Prime Minister Yu Qing, whom the emperor thought was in direct conflict with him.
"If this dream is real, then we have reached a strange place. Prime Minister, have you prepared a way out?"
Shao Rongwei was not surprised when he dreamed that the new emperor was a poor commoner. After all, the other party was blessed by gods, and such a person was more terrifying than the so-called aristocratic family.
"The children at home have been sent back to their hometown. As for me, I will naturally live and die with Daxia."
What Yu Qing did in his life was to rely on his own abilities step by step to become the prime minister of a country today from a humble family. Therefore, he would rather die than surrender, and would not change his allegiance to the emperor, otherwise his name would be cursed for all eternity in history books.
"But you know that Daxia is not worthy of loyalty."
What Shao Rongwei said was true. In fact, he was originally a young general who worked hard on the frontier. Later, the emperor saw his outstanding ability and kept him in the capital to train the troops, command the troops in the capital, and made him a general. However, everyone knew that these soldiers were used as the last line of defense for the emperor. If the dynasty was gone on that day, these people would die.
In fact, the military has been in chaos recently. Shao Rongwei can control rumors, but he cannot control people's hearts.
The soldiers knew that Daxia was going to fall, so how could they be willing to die for the emperor? So they didn't even train that hard.
The emperor's regime was already vacant. Not only could decrees be issued from the capital, but outside the capital, many states were controlled by aristocratic families. Officials all turned to the aristocratic families and waited for the next emperor, not to mention the princes entrenched in their fiefdoms, who were all silent.
After the Beiyang incident, Emperor Gao Xi issued several decrees to send troops to Beiyang, but who has taken action now?
Almost two months have passed, and no one has moved. Imperial power has fallen, and the emperor's orders are no longer effective. After this dream, I'm afraid everyone is in a state of panic...
"General, it's better to make some plans. Now that His Majesty has sent you to attack Dongyin, I think this is an opportunity. It would be better to take your soldiers and surrender directly to the new king. If the new dynasty comes, you, the general, will be considered a meritorious person."
Yu Qing did not beat around the bush. There was no need to waste time on the useless rhetoric he had used in the court. He directly gave a pointed suggestion.
Shao Rongwei was stunned for a moment, then he understood what Yu Qing meant, and then he bowed to Yu Qing.
"Thank you, Prime Minister, for your help. If someone from the Shao family survives in the future, they will take care of the people from the Yu family."
The two of them discussed their escape plan in a few words, and then entered the palace together. Sure enough, they saw the crazy look of Emperor Gao Xi. Sometimes, the crazier a person is, the more powerless he is.
Gao Xi's madness is just the final declaration before extinction.
"General Shao, I order you to lead the army to attack Dongyin! Take the head of the traitor Li Min'an! Can you do it?"
Gao Xi spoke in a somewhat neurotic tone, his body shaking constantly. After the fire in the palace, after experiencing the nightmare, and after all the news coming from everywhere, the already old emperor seemed to be going crazy.
"Yes, I will definitely help Your Majesty capture the traitor!!"
Shao Rongwei agreed. Gao Xi was going mad. After the gods had given him this dream, he knew Daxia was doomed. But even so, he would send someone to kill Li Min'an. He wouldn't allow Li Min'an to do such a thing! That was contempt for imperial power! How could those lowly poor people own land! Bitch! Bitch!
In the end, Shao Rongwei left. Originally, Shao Rongwei was in charge of 100,000 elite troops in the capital. This time he went to Dongyin, he was determined to capture Li Min'an, so he left 50,000 to protect the emperor's safety and took 50,000 away.
Once they left, they would never come back. Yu Qing sent the army off on the city wall and ordered an army of 50,000 to guard outside the capital, not allowing the people inside the capital to enter or leave. It seemed that everything was about to come to an end.
This was different from what Yu Qing had imagined. He had thought that even if the whole structure was about to collapse, this ship could still hold out for ten years. But now, with the advent of the gods, all hearts and minds were crumbling before the gods' grace. Daxia was still Daxia on the surface, but in reality, it was in chaos...
Once people’s hearts are in chaos, they can never be brought back.
Naturally, the princes from other places also had such dreams. They all wanted to go to war, but the problem was that the brothers around them were still alive. If they went to war and the soldiers were killed or injured, even if Li Min'an was killed, wouldn't it be a waste of time for others to reap the benefits?
Therefore, the princes of other fiefdoms actually remained silent towards the "rebel" Li Min'an, waiting for him to take the first step.
In fact, the people in the fiefdom have also begun to get restless. On the surface, people dare not say anything, but in fact, they close the door at home and discuss the new emperor and the division of land. They can't wait to see the demise of Daxia, and they can't wait to change their surnames.
Li Min'an in Dongyin woke up from his dream. Zhuge Tianzong hurried over and saw Li Min'an laughing.
"Sir, it seems that God is on my side. Destiny is in my hands!"
Li Min'an laughed wildly, showing his arrogance at this moment, but only such a person can shoulder the responsibility of being the common ruler of the world. Although he is still working hard to learn everything, the road to becoming an emperor has begun to slowly unfold towards him. After today, Li Min'an will be the people's choice!
When Li Min'an's army goes out to fight in the future, they will march forward without hesitation! There will be no stopping them!!!
"Congratulations, my lord! I believe this is the intention of the Lord of Changes, so my lord should go and see him. He is a god, and he may know about past and present lives. Why don't you go and visit him and ask about the doubts in your heart?"
Zhuge Tianzong also wanted to meet this legendary star god. When the Great Xia was about to perish, the star god came down to earth to support the emperor.
If this were said to ordinary people, they would believe it, but Zhuge Tianzong did not believe that a person could be without greed and desire.
Even after descending to the mortal realm, the Hundred-Change Star Lord remained a mortal. Even if he had awakened his divine memories, wouldn't he want to reign supreme? He still had so many divine friends to help him...
"Of course I have to go and pay him a visit. This Lord of Changes is very interesting. Very interesting."
Li Min'an still doesn't believe in God. He knows that God has come to the world, but he always feels pain in his heart. Even when he hears about God, he can't help but ask himself, why didn't God come sooner? Why did He have to wait until everyone in his family died before He appeared?
Perhaps Li Min'an was rebellious at heart. He wanted to see the gods and ask them in person why his life in this world was so painful and difficult. Even now that he had become the Lord of Dongyin, he still couldn't sleep every night and was in great pain.
He rebelled to prevent more people like his parents and villagers from being killed, but in his dreams at midnight he couldn't help but think that if nothing had happened, if the gods had come earlier, he would have his parents, brothers and sisters, and with these people by his side, he would be willing to be an ordinary person.
These are all things that the Human Emperor wants to know, but he does not understand fate, nor does he understand what it means to be an emperor by destiny.
The road to becoming an emperor is paved with blood. Family, friends, beloved teachers, are all thorns that must be stepped on on this road. Even if blood is flowing, one can only keep moving forward.
Perhaps the high profile of the gods in this life is destined to change something, just like Li Min'an now, and like Liu Wen who has lived a new life.
Liu Wen has packed her luggage, and Qin Lie, Qin Taohua and everyone in the Qin family are going to Lingzhou together.
In the next few days, Liu Wen led the Qin family and several hundred of her own men towards Liangzhou, and Dongyin, which was very close to Liangzhou, actually received the news.
"…Is this true or false? Is it feasible?"
Princess Ying, under the orders of the Lord of Change, wanted to take people to kill King Gao Kun of Yin, but why did the news have to be passed to him?
"I actually think this is a good thing. My Lord, why don't you take this opportunity to capture Ling Zhou!"
Zhuge Tianzong immediately understood the benefits. If Gao Kun, the King of Yin in Lingzhou, died, then as long as their Yingwu army occupied Lingzhou, their territory would be expanded again.
Li Min'an naturally understood all this, but he was also worried that this was a trap. However, when he thought of the Hundred-Change Star Lord, he decided to give it a try.
On the day he received the letter, Li Min'an led his troops towards Lingzhou. At that moment, Princess Ying, Liu Wen, had already taken the Qin family and secretly entered the Yin Palace...
