Chapter 158 The general trend of the world
Many wealthy families in the world who were dissatisfied with Li Chongjun began to use their methods.r?anw enw?w?w?.

Li Chongjun was a wax emperor who disappointed the Demon Sect and all the famous families in the world. After he ascended the throne, his decrees were only circulated around Chang'an. Following the Demon Sect's instructions, he washed the ministers of the court, and he also scrubbed the eyes of the newly promoted ministers carefully.
A smear of darkness will do nothing. The remaining ministers will either escape or be arrested, and the city of Chang'an will be in a state of uproar.
In fact, the real masters of this world are the wealthy families and the gentry class. If the emperor cooperates happily with these people, the world will be stable. If the interests are contrary, the wealthy families have a hundred ways to give the emperor a headache.
The Demon Sect doesn't know anything about governance. After putting the puppet emperor on stage, it immediately felt like it controlled the world.
After a few days, Xiaoyao realized that no one was paying attention. The order could only be implemented within Chang'an City and could not leave the city gate. He was very domineering and ordered various places to pay tribute to property and training resources. The messengers who sent messages to various places were either killed or directly defected to other forces. Looking forward to it.
His wish to collect massive resources to supply cultivation has not been realized.
The gentry know very well the virtues of the people in the Demon Sect, and no one wants to be with a group of psychopaths who extort excessive taxes.
Since the emperor is not qualified, then replace him with another one.
It's a very practical idea, and the wealthy families actually do it.
The representatives sent by the clan boarded Mount Huashan. Chu Zhe was ordered by the boss to face the wall and reflect on his past. Lian Tianxing was nowhere to be found. The third child at the end of the Wannian Crane had no choice but to come out to receive the reception. The recent busyness reminded everyone in Chunyang Palace.
It turns out there is another third senior brother.
The content of the discussion has already been set by the big bosses, and now all we need to do is follow the process.
The third child just needs to nod his head. All he wants is his head.
Not long after, another group of people went up the mountain.
These people brought a lot of things, mainly prince-level ceremonial guards and maid guards, all prepared for Li Chongqian. After all, if he needs to be emperor, there should be some scene.
Qingxu Palace is very lively.
Bai Yu sat on the window sill and looked at the busy people in the backyard.
The maids served Li Chongqian to take a bath and put on the new prince's yellow robe. For the sake of face, everyone automatically promoted him from the previous prince to prince before helping him up. All the ceremonial guards were sent to him, and masters from various aristocratic families were assigned to serve as temporary guards.
, Chunyang Palace even arranged for two senior disciples to protect him day and night.
Bai Yu watched the excitement as always.
The wooden stairs creaked, and Xu Ling pushed the delicate wooden door open without knocking, and came in with Yang Mu carrying a lot of things.
It was thrown all over the bed.
There were a bunch of jade bottles filled with elixirs, and a bunch of gold that he didn't know where to get. Bai Yu looked like the golden tripod in a certain temple had been broken into pieces...
There was also a pile of dried meat. Xu Ling threw a paper bag to Bai Yu and then followed suit and sat on the other side of the window.
Yang Mu rushed outside and sat on the roof. The two obedient babies who followed etiquette had never done this before. They both learned from a certain snake demon.
Open the paper package, pick up a piece of dried meat and throw it into your mouth to chew slowly.
"Isn't it heavy with so many things on you?"
Xu Ling found it amazing that Li Chongqian could wear so many messy things. It was rare to see such crazy dressing in the mountains. He seemed to have some special hobby for putting things on his body.
"Maybe the higher the status, the more things you have."
Yang Mu always speaks very insightfully.
Bai Yu knew that the two of them came here to comfort him. Those pills were probably their inventory in the past two years. It was a poor way to change the topic.
He looked at Yang Mu, who had a cold face.
"What about Princess Xiangling? I remember she has been pestering you, why don't you just accept her?"
Yang Mu pouted.
"I think Li Chongqian is not bad. You are going to join the palace anyway, so why not become his queen? At least you can become the mother of the country, and the two of us can follow suit and be honored."
Bai Yu's mouth twitched to resist the urge to kick him down.
The side hall in the backyard is still busy, and the maids who were given to Li Chongqian by the aristocratic families are still busy with various things. For example, the tea sets originally provided by Chunyang Palace need to be replaced, and the original set of beds also need to be replaced with new ones. Compared with However, Li Xiangling, who has now started practicing, seems much more deserted.
"Won't the princess return to Chang'an?" Bai Yu asked curiously.
Yang Mu shook his head.
"She said she was tired of Chang'an's machinations. After the death of Emperor Tang, so many princes died and even the one-month-old baby could not escape. Maybe she was frightened or tired."
Xu Ling added another sentence.
"She said that if she goes back, she will most likely be used as a bargaining chip to marry off. She may marry into a tribe in the wilderness outside the customs."
The princess was also quite pitiful. Bai Yu recalled the princesses who had been sacrificed in previous lives. They were sent to foreign tribes for marriage at a young age. What they called marriage marriages was actually just a punching bag given to foreign tribes by incompetent men in the dynasty to save trouble. It sounds good, but in reality, life is miserable. For example, several famous marriage princesses in history did not end well.
A group of men in the court who kept talking about their family, country and the world didn't care about national justice and dignity and pushed the girl into the pit of fire. They also said that it was for the sake of the people of the world. It was ridiculous and they were just a bunch of wimps.
"Did you hear when we are leaving?" Bai Yu was concerned about the time of going down the mountain.
Xu Ling looked at Yang Mu, she didn't know about this either.
"It's coming soon. It is said that several states around Chang'an have declared Li Chongjun's ten major crimes and decided to be loyal to Li Chongqian. The other anti-kings also shouted the same. I don't know what their intentions are. It will probably take less than a month for Li Chongqian to come forward to organize an army. Besiege Chang'an."
"What about me? What to do?"
"I don't know. I heard from the senior brother who came back from the mountain that there is a rumor among the people in various places that Li Chongqian is the real emperor because of the help of the divine dragon. The divine dragon who helped him once appeared in Longze County and Nanyuan Lake. Many people have seen it, so it spread very quickly. Southeast The army has pledged its allegiance to this boy under Yang Chen's instruction, and he now has his own troops."
"Haha, you really know how to create momentum."
No matter what era you want to do big things, you need to build momentum in advance, create favorable conditions with the help of various miracles, and then use the miracles to compete for world supremacy. Especially the emperor needs to build momentum. The premise is that Li Chongjun is very unpopular, and then he has no reputation or even once was a person. Li Chongqian, who was seriously ill, appeared and took the title of True Dragon Emperor.
The appearance of divine dragons from various places is very beneficial to hype, and half-truths and half-falsehoods can become true over time.
Bai Yu was curious about how the magic stick Yuan Tianshi asked him to protect Li Chongqian's dragon energy, and how to regulate the damaged and weak dragon veins under the Daming Palace. This boy looked so excited that he could hear his heartbeat from a distance. , it’s really exciting to be about to sit on the dragon’s throne.
