He knew that Han Zhe had sent envoys to Zhao Ning and Ji Dong respectively, asking them to support him.
If the conditions offered by Zhao Ning and Ji Dong had not been unacceptable to them, the three kingdoms of Yan, Wei and Han would have disbanded long ago.
But just because this is unacceptable doesn’t mean that cooperation cannot succeed.
If someone takes a step back...
The Zhou emperor was very worried. Once Han allied with Li or Jidong, there would be no need for him to exist as a mascot. Haojing was next to Han's fiefdom and not far from Wu and Yan.
By then...
Doesn't it all depend on other people's mood whether you live or die?
Could it be that...
Is it really going to come to that?
Emperor Zhou looked extremely conflicted, and his facial muscles trembled again and again.
Finally, he made up his mind.
If I don't take that step, I will be handing my life over to the princes.
If you reach that point, you will have to hand over your life to the Celestials.
The former will not gain any benefit.
In the latter case, you might even be able to drink a sip of the soup.
It’s decided!
He gritted his teeth and activated the mysterious pattern on the palm of his hand that had not been activated for a long time.
A moment later.
The lines shone brightly, and the light spots that seeped out condensed into a vague figure.
"you……"
Guangying looked at Zhou Tianzi, and his tone seemed a little unhappy: "Didn't I ask you to destroy Guangying? Why are you still..."
Before he could finish his words, he heard a plop.
The Zhou Emperor actually knelt down!
And it was a very grand ceremony.
"Meet the Special Envoy!"
“…”
The envoy was stunned for a moment, then waved his hand and said, "It's useless to pay respect to me. After the last battle to pacify the demons, the Celestials have been completely disappointed in you. Although your failure was partly due to Ji Dong, as the Emperor of Zhou, you can't even control Ji Dong. How can the Celestials trust you?"
There are two factions within the Celestial Clan, although he intends to continue supporting the Emperor of Zhou.
But after the war against demons, the Zhou Dynasty was doomed. They sent so many elite fighters, but in the end, not only did they all die, they also became background members of others.
With such a record, how can people believe that he can unify the world?
He was forcibly summoned this time, and originally wanted to destroy the mark directly to stop Emperor Zhou's thoughts.
But I never thought...
If the King of Zhou had not knelt down, he would not even have said these words to the King of Zhou.
"special envoy!"
The Zhou Emperor said in a deep voice: "Do you really think Ji Dong is trustworthy?"
The envoy was silent for a moment, then shook his head and said, "If the Celestials want to descend to the mortal world, they must bring with them the faith of the people. Whether they are trustworthy is one thing, and whether they can influence the people is another. Not to mention me, the entire Celestials trust you more, but what's the use? Do you still have even a little chance of ruling the people?"
What he said is true.
Since the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the shadow of the Celestial Clan has always been present, and there have rarely been any problems in the cooperation between the Zhou emperor and the Celestial Clan.
Originally, the tampering of the concept of "heaven" in Zhou Li was developing in a good direction, but unexpectedly, Haojing was destroyed, and the rituals and music collapsed from then on, and the Zhou royal family never recovered.
The Celestials definitely had more trust in the Zhou Emperor.
But if you want to unify the world, it seems that only Ji Dong and Ying Wuji can do it. Although they are not so trustworthy, they have the resources of the Celestial Tribe in their hands, and there is still room for negotiation.
He shook his head, ready to destroy the mark and leave.
The Zhou Emperor suddenly said, "What if I have a way to help the special envoy completely enslave Ji Dong?"
"Um?"
The light and shadow on the envoy suddenly brightened, and his eyes became scorching: "What did you say?"
Emperor Zhou took a deep breath and repeated word for word: "What if I have a way to help the special envoy completely enslave Ji Dong?"
The special envoy also became a little uneasy: "Tell me in detail!"
The Emperor of Zhou stood up and said solemnly, "This is a secret of the human race. Only those who sit on the throne of the world can know the secret. This has been the case from the time of Emperor Yan and Emperor Huang to the Great Xia, and from the Xia and Shang dynasties to the Great Zhou!"
The envoy asked anxiously, "What secret?"
The Zhou Emperor said in a heavy tone: "The common ruler of the world is not a specific position, but a rule condensed by the destiny of the clan. As long as you stay within this rule, you are the common ruler of the world.
Of course, the position of the common ruler of the Zhou Dynasty has now reached the brink of collapse, just like during the reign of King Zhou of Shang.
The last time Haojing was forced, it was close to collapse, but it was forcibly restored by King Xi and the princes.
But if Haojing is destroyed again this time, we can only wait for new rules to emerge."
The envoy was somewhat displeased: "Since it is already on the verge of breaking, why are you still saying this?"
The Zhou Emperor shook his head: "It is true that it is on the verge of collapse, but the only thing that can truly destroy this position is the general trend of the world. As long as Haojing is not destroyed, no one can destroy this position. Although this position is mysterious, it is actually no different from a formation.
Special Envoy! The Celestials are also the result of the distribution of clan fortune. In the past, the Celestials and the Humans separated and lived on opposite sides of the wall. They used clan fortune formations to control their servants and puppets. You said..."
The envoy suddenly became excited: "You mean... you are willing to use your status as the emperor as a puppet, and then abdicate the throne to Ji Dong?"
"yes!"
The Zhou Emperor said firmly: "Although this position is on the verge of collapse, it is definitely not something that can be escaped by one person alone, not even a saint! Ji Dong has long coveted the throne of the emperor. If I agree to abdicate, he will definitely not refuse.
By then, Ji Dong will be a slave of the Celestial Clan. He will have the Black Armor Legion under his command, and he will also be in charge of the Ji Clan Alliance. Why should he worry about not being able to unify the country?
It just so happens that the Celestials don't trust him enough, so this move will solve the Celestials' biggest hidden danger!"
