Chapter 473: Shake the foundation! Force Ye Changan to abdicate!
"Ye Tianwang, our request is actually very simple. We just want you to remove the Xia family from the ranks of the Five Clans of the Imperial Capital, and then let Pope Gu return to Yanxia and establish the Gu family to replace the Xia family and become the new Five Clans of the Imperial Capital."
"Also, from now on, you promise not to provide any assistance to the Xia family. In other words, the fate of the Xia family has nothing to do with you anymore."
Wang Shou said in a calm tone.
Ye Changan's eyes were as calm as still water, he just stared at him, and as he listened he actually started to smile.
"Do you think I would agree to such a condition? Even if you say it a thousand and a hundred times, I will never agree to your request."
Let’s not talk about what will happen if someone with such wolfish ambitions like Gu Yumo establishes the Gu family in Yanxia. If this continues, it will inevitably disrupt the foundation of the country.
He would never agree if Guangguang asked him to exclude the Xia family from the five clans.
The Xia family is full of heroes. Xia Zun was seriously injured while protecting Yan Xia and Luo Wuye.
The same thing happened to Xia Yuanyang, who died in battle. Xia Qingcheng's husband was even more of a hero in Yanxia.
Now that the Xia family has lost power, should Ye Changan stop caring about the life and death of the Xia family?
If he really did this, he would be sorry for Luo Ming even if he died!
"I know you're anxious, but don't be anxious, Ye Tianwang... That's why I said I was analyzing the situation for you."
"Actually... I've received quite a few letters of surrender from the Yanxia aristocratic families recently..."
Ye Changan's expression suddenly changed, and Wang Shou smiled as expected when he saw his expression.
"Look... the Yuan family of Demon City, the Xu family, the Du family, the Ren family of Jinling, the Su family of Chang'an Prefecture, the Gu family of Taiyi Prefecture, the Nanqiao Territory, the Yu family..."
One by one, the names of families that were relatively well-known in Yanxia came out of Wang Shou's mouth.
These big families have been rooted in Yanxia for many years. There are many in the seventy-two regions and thirty-six states. They are related to all walks of life in Yanxia and control half of the economic lifeline. Some of the wealthy families in the counties even have great power in the local area!
In this situation, if these people and their clans and the king leave Yanxia, then in a short period of time, this behemoth Yanxia may be paralyzed!
Crunch!
Ye Changan clenched his fists tightly. How could these families propose to leave Yanxia at the same time for no reason?
There must be someone behind the scenes who is instigating this!
"You...are so bold as to shake the very foundation of Yan Xia!"
Not only does it shake the foundation, but it also tries to force its way in!
It’s too cruel! The wolfish ambitions of these guys are so obvious!
"I want to convene... a meeting of the Yanxia family, in the name of... the Celestial Blazing Holy Order!"
Ye Changan announced with a wave of his hand.
"Then we'll apply for an auditing seat."
The two sneered.
In this situation, you, Ye Changan, are caught in a dilemma. Are you going to shake the foundation of the country for the Xia family... or are you going to compromise?
If we firmly reject them in order to protect the Xia family, the ordinary people of Yanxia will probably have something to say, right?
After all... Luo Ming is dead. Is it necessary to waste so many resources for the family of a dead person?
A family meeting was held and the patriarchs of each major family appeared on the big screen.
Including the five clans of the imperial capital.
Now there is no one in the Xia family, and the person who appears on the screen is Xia Qingcheng.
She was wearing a white long dress, with her long hair draped over her shoulders, sitting quietly by the window.
In her arms was a brown teddy bear doll, but the little doll was wearing a long black windbreaker, the hem of which dragged on the ground.
Xia Qingcheng looked out the window, neither crying nor laughing, with a melancholy expression. The afterglow of the setting sun shining on her made her look a little sick.
Ye Changan felt it was extremely dazzling and could not help but turn his head away.
That teddy bear was a gift from Xia Qingcheng's father to Wu Ye for his second birthday.
And that piece of clothing was what Luo Ming was most used to wearing on a daily basis.
But... the things are still there, but their owners are gone.
If he continued reading, he was afraid that he would lose control of his emotions, so he could only turn his head away.
It just seems that Xia Qingcheng's depression...is getting worse.
Ye Changan sat in the main seat, took a deep breath, and his face became gloomy.
"Which families want to leave Yanxia?"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a loud bang!
Half of the clan leaders raised their hands.
Ye Changan's face looked extremely ugly!
"reason."
Everyone pondered for a while.
"Ye Tianwang, now that Yanxia has withdrawn from the Shanhaixiongguan Pass, monsters are not allowed to enter the walls. The Human Federation strictly controls the sale of beast cores to us. The low-level beast cores in the garrison are not enough for us to use!"
"Ye Tianwang, the Federation controls a large number of metal veins, and the high-grade metals produced can be used to forge powerful weapons and armor. However, the metal veins in my country of Yanxia were almost completely destroyed during the battle with the Evil Moon Shadow Wolf!"
"Ye Tianwang... Regarding the medicine..."
Generally speaking, it is because Yanxia is now being targeted by the Federation, resulting in a large reduction in various resources and the interests of these families are getting smaller and smaller. At this time, the Federation promised to give them a large amount of resources.
This is the reason why they say money can move people's hearts.
Wang Shou and the other man smiled and said, "In this situation, what can you, Yanxia, use to play with us?"
Without Luo Ming, it's like going from hell mode to hard mode.
There was a lot of quarreling among the major families, and the two factions started arguing in public.
One side accuses the other side of being treacherous and treasonous!
One side defended itself by saying that it was only for itself and its family, and that if one did not care for oneself, heaven and earth would punish him.
The noise was endless.
"Okay, stop arguing. You want my Xia family to withdraw from the Five Clans of the Imperial Capital, right?"
At this time, Xia Qingcheng spoke. Although her voice was not loud, it instantly suppressed everyone.
"Okay, I agree."
Her cold voice sounded again.
Ye Changan looked up at her in disbelief.
"Qingcheng, don't be impulsive!"
Xia Qingcheng shook her head.
"Brother Ye, enough is enough...it's really enough. You've done enough for Luo Ming, for me, and for the Xia family."
"In the current situation, the Xia family shouldn't become a burden to Yan Xia..."
"I, Xia Qingcheng, declare in the name of the head of the Xia family that from today on... the Xia family will withdraw from the Five Clans of the Imperial Capital. There is no need for you to argue anymore."
As she spoke, she slowly stood up.
"I'm tired... so I'll take my leave now."
After she finished speaking, the screen on her side went black.
Xia Qingcheng was indeed tired. She felt like she was living in the deep sea, unable to see her fingers in front of her.
She was exhausted and had no time to deal with these so-called petty intrigues and schemes.
If Wu Ye was not still alive, she would still have a glimmer of hope in her heart.
She had already gone to find Luo Ming.
After all... she once said that she would die with him.
Xia Qingcheng huddled in the corner, hugging the doll and the coat tightly in her hands.
"Luo Ming, Wu Ye... Dad, I really miss you..."
"Why...why does everyone leave me alone..."
