The news of Emperor Chengwu's ascendance to the throne was passed to the imperial capital three days ago.

As the news came at the same time, there were grand ascension and military parade videos.

The four electoral families, stimulated by the fear of destruction, took out the final capital to form a new "orthodox real human empire protector". Although they no longer have the reputation of the Ace Fleet and the King Kong Fleet, at first glance, they are strong and serious.

In terms of bloodline, this "Emperor Chengwu" should be the clan brother of Emperor Shenwu. His bloodline is uncommon, but he is also an absolute candid and just a puppet of the four major families.

The so-called "Supering the Martial Arts" is naturally the four major families who hope that he can inherit the martial fortune of Emperor Shenwu and unify the empire again.

The four major families spread the news of the new emperor's ascension to the throne and the grand scenes of the military parade ceremony throughout the empire through the spiritual network, as an extremely effective psychological offensive.

The thousand-year empire is deeply rooted, and the idea of ​​"the sky must be without sun, and the country must be without a king" is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Even though he knew that Emperor Chengwu was just a puppet, and even the ceremony of the throne was not held in the imperial capital, the so-called "supreme throne" was temporarily refined, but once he sat on the throne, he naturally had a sacred and inviolable glory, which caused a different kind of turmoil in the hearts of middle and lower-level immortal cultivators.

Especially today when the situation in the empire is so chaotic, the emperor's righteousness is even more powerful than a joint fleet.

"I know this naturally."

Li Yao nodded, "What is Emperor Chengwu? He is just a new puppet."

"Puppets are puppets, but many times, the power of habits is extremely powerful. For a thousand years, the imperial people have been influenced by the idea of ​​"loyalty to the emperor and patriotism". Many ideas have been deeply rooted in the bone marrow and cannot be changed overnight."

Li Jialing paused and said, "It has been almost a year since the death of the late emperor. Now the pseudo-emperor capital of the four major families has been crowned as a monkey and has 'ascended the throne' with a hypocritical '. The battle flag used by the Reformers to call on heroes at the time was eight words. The latter four were 'reform empire', while the first four were 'respecting the emperor to fight against rebellion'. Now there is no 'environment'. If the name is not right and the words are not right, how can we fight against rebellion and unify the empire?"

"Yes, this is indeed a big headache. Has General Lei Chenghu been inspecting the new emperor recently? He dragged me over and inspected many times, but the result was really unsatisfactory."

Li Yao is now considered a real-powerful figure in the empire. Putting aside the support of the Starry Glory Federation, he is the serious "King of Black Wind" with the support of the Arsoners Combined Fleet, but he still saved the number one hero in the imperial capital and the strong contender for the "strongest warrior in the empire". Even if his combat power is not the first, at least he can fight for the top three and five, and he will not fall out of the top ten even if he is not good.

Looking at the entire empire with such comprehensive strength, except for the "God of War" Lei Chenghu who can compete with him, the other small and medium-sized warlords have no opponents at all.

Therefore, Li Yao is not an electoral emperor, but is better than an electoral emperor. Whether it is the old reformist leader Li Linghai or the new reformist leader Lei Chenghu, if he wants to choose a new emperor, he has to respect his opinions.

However, the royal family has been going on for thousands of years, and after generations of deliberate laissez-faire and distorted by generations of powerful ministers, it has long turned into a deserted wasteland. The new generation of royal family that grew here is not only "uneven good and bad", but it is simply a bunch of crooked melons and no one is "good".

"I didn't have much objection to the emperor's candidates. I told General Lei Chenghu several times that this is an internal affairs of the empire. My position is not awkward, and it is easy to leave a word."

Li Yao sighed and frowned slightly, "But, those candidates are all too dissatisfied, not even half-looking. They are either looking at the eagle or looking at the wolf, or looking at the deer-headed and rat-headed. Their strength and ambition are not in line with their minds, and they are not clear about their minds. In a word, they are like "doing things are not enough, and they have enough trouble"!

"You know, even if it is just a puppet, you should have the self-cultivation of a puppet. I really don't care who is the emperor. I just hope that a guy with a clear mind and a little longer-term vision, knows such a simple truth as 'no eternal friends, only eternal interests' can temporarily put aside the differences between cultivating and cultivating immortals, communicate and cooperate with each other with his nose - but such a simple requirement cannot be found!"

Li Jialing smiled: "It seems that Brother Yao is really dissatisfied with those candidates?"

“It’s more than just dissatisfaction?”

Li Yao said, "I designed several small test sessions for General Lei Chenghu, and immediately tried out the ambitions of those guys. Those guys were really hostile to the cultivators, and they wanted to eat the Arsoners Fleet and the Starry Federation in the next second!

"I didn't say that the emperor of the Empire cannot be hostile to the Starry Flag Federation, but at least you have to consider your own strength and distinguish the enemy's primary and secondary? Now that the four major families have not been destroyed and the main force of the Holy Alliance has not been released, you are anxious to slaughter the heroes after ascending the throne, clean up all the cultivators, swallow the arsonist joint fleet, and then work to expedite the Federation on the border of the Star Sea? This is not what you are looking for!

"If these guys can tolerate their temperaments a little, even if they can wait until they solve the four major families and the Holy Alliance and then use their swords to the cultivators, my evaluation of them is still a little higher. Now, let alone me, even General Lei Chenghu is extremely dissatisfied with it."

"Yes, I've been with His Highness in the hospital these days. I often see General Lei come to her to discuss the new emperor's choice, and I often hear him complain."

Li Jialing smiled slightly and said, "Actually, General Lei attaches more importance to the candidates of the new king than Brother Yao. He never wants to just choose a new puppet."

"oh?"

Li Yao was slightly stunned and couldn't help but smile, "Don't you want to have a puppet, does Lei Chenghu still want to get a 'wise king'?"

"General Lei does think so."

Li Jialing nodded and said, "General Lei thought that the source of the disaster that the empire's decline over the past few hundred years was that the monarch was weak and the powerful ministers were too strong, and the two sides failed to form effective checks and balances.

"If the reformists now also choose a new puppet, what is the difference between them and the puppets of the four major families? Where is the so-called "innovator"?

"Yes, when General Lei Chenghu and His Highness were there, they could use their iron fist methods and lofty prestige to suppress warlords from all sides and ensure that the concept of innovation remains unchanged. However, General Lei is old and may die within a hundred years. His Highness now has lost all his strength, and it is unknown whether he can be transformed into a ghost cultivator. They cannot keep the puppet forever.

"If one day General Lei and His Highness fell one after another, and the new generation of warlords were full of wings, how would that puppet emperor do what he should do? Even if the reformists defeated the four major families at that time, wouldn't they transform into the four major families of the new generation?"

Li Jialing's words made Li Yao respect Lei Chenghu: "This is right. General Lei Chenghu thinks for the long term. No matter whether I am an enemy or a friend of him in the end, I have to admit that he is indeed a purest soldier who never seeks personal gain, devotes himself to the country, and devotes himself to it!

"But then again, it's good to have a clear-minded wise king instead of a puppet, but the wise king is not a leek in the field, so how can it be so easy to find? These days, General Lei Chenghu has dug all the royal families on the Pole Star three feet into the ground? I have read all the information on those lists. There are really no people who can be praised on the table, and there are not many people who can barely make do. It's not necessarily that they will find a few three or five-year-old babies now, and they will take decades to train them to become "wise kings"? No, according to General Lei Chenghu's strict standards, it is estimated that they have to start cultivating from the womb to meet his requirements, hahahaha!"

Li Yao laughed dryly, but Li Jialing did not respond. The atmosphere was a bit awkward and strange.

"No, why are you talking to me about this?"

Li Yao felt that Li Jialing's expression was a little strange, and he raised his head and took a mouthful of strengthening potion, saying, "If you want to choose the emperor, please leave it to His Highness and General Lei Chenghu for a headache. What important thing do you want to say to me? Do you still have to get my support?"

"Brother Yao——"

Li Jialing was silent for a long time, and finally made up his mind, plucked up the courage, took a deep breath, and said, "If General Lei Chenghu and His Highness both want me to become the new imperial emperor, will you support me?"

"puff!"

Li Yao sprayed the enhancement potion on the opposite wall, and then he coughed loudly, so he couldn't breathe, and even coughed out tears, "Cough cough cough cough, cough cough cough cough, what are you kidding? Cough cough cough cough, did you say it wrong or did I hear it wrong or did Li Linghai and Lei Chenghu have their brains in water? You are the emperor? You are not a royal family at all, and you are not surnamed Wuying!"

"This is a small matter."

Li Jialing had no expression on his face and said lightly, "Brother Yao thought General Lei Chenghu was the kind of foolish and loyal person, and he had to kneel down at the feet of the Wuying clan, right? Today's empire is no longer an empire with one surname. General Lei is loyal to the empire belonging to all mankind, not to Wu Yingqi and his unscrupulous descendants.

"Of course, for the vast majority of the people of the empire, they will definitely not be able to accept an emperor of a different surname. It doesn't matter. I was originally an unknown person, and not many people know my true origin.
