Emperor Daqian summoned the civil servants and generals to discuss matters.
Emperor Daqian was very young.
He looks to be in his twenties, with a fair face, sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, and is quite handsome.
Although he is young, no minister dares to look down upon him. Over the years, the Daqian Emperor has managed his ministers obediently.
Moreover, Queen Daqian is also the granddaughter of Cao Potian from the God of War family.
"You have all seen the rankings on the Shenglong List. What do you have to say about the fact that King Wu of Zhou is still alive?" Emperor Daqian asked. ??
An old minister said, "Your Majesty, we all thought King Wu of Zhou was dead before, but we didn't expect that he actually appeared on the Shenglong List this time. This shows that King Wu of Zhou is not dead."
Another minister said, "King Wu of Zhou is not dead, and he was also on the Rising Dragon Ranking at the same time as the current Emperor Zhou. This is not a good thing for our Dagan."
then.
Another minister said, "King Wu of Zhou is not dead, but there has been no news for so many years. I think Zhou has a big plan, and we must prepare countermeasures in advance."
Emperor Daqian nodded and said, "It is essential to be on guard against others, not to mention that we are neighboring countries, so we really need to make some preparations."
"Our three countries each occupy one side and check each other. This balanced situation has been maintained for many years."
"The emergence of King Wu of Zhou may break this balance."
"If my guess is correct, the Wei Dynasty is in the same situation as us, and the King of Wei is probably making preparations."
At this time, a military general said, "Your Majesty, I have a suggestion. We can unite with the Great Wei to fight against the Great Zhou."
Emperor Daqian asked, "Where are the others? What do you think?"
One by one, the ministers spoke.
"Your Majesty, I think
Joining forces with Dawei is a good choice."
"Da Qian and Da Wei join forces, maybe they can destroy Da Zhou."
"We can first unite with the Great Wei and destroy the Great Zhou, and then turn around and destroy the Great Wei again to unify Central Continent."
"..."
Suddenly, the scene was filled with discussions.
After a while.
Emperor Daqian raised his hand gently, and instantly, the scene was completely silent.
"I understand what you all mean, which is to unite with Wei and fight against Zhou. However, I would like to ask you, since we are looking for someone to form an alliance, why not find a stronger alliance?"
Emperor Daqian said, "For example, forming an alliance with Dazhou."
"Your Majesty, this must not be done." A gray-haired veteran said, "The Zhou Dynasty is ambitious. If we form an alliance with them, we might lead the wolf into the house."
Emperor Daqian said, "If Da Zhou is ambitious, then isn't Da Wei also ambitious?"
"Actually, I understand that no matter the Emperor of Zhou, the King of Wei, or even me, they all have a common ideal, which is to unify Central Continent and create glory for all generations."
"But given the current situation, no one can do it, so forming an alliance to destroy one country first is the only option!"
"Have you ever thought about it, if we form an alliance with Da Wei, the combined strength of the two countries can only compete with Da Zhou, and we will not be able to destroy Da Zhou in a short time."
"However, the Great Zhou Dynasty is very powerful, and there are two powerful men on the Shenglong List. If we form an alliance with the Great Zhou Dynasty, we are fully capable of destroying the Great Wei Dynasty."
The old minister said before, "Your Majesty, have you ever thought that once the Wei Dynasty is destroyed, the Zhou Dynasty will turn around and deal with us?"
Emperor Daqian
The emperor said, "I have thought about this, but I am not afraid."
"If the Wei Dynasty is destroyed, then only we and the Great Zhou Dynasty will be left in Central Continent. Even if a war breaks out, we don't have to be prepared for the Wei Dynasty to take advantage of the chaos to attack. We can use the strength of the whole country to deal with the Great Zhou Dynasty together."
"When the time comes, we still don't know who will win."
"Moreover, once we form an alliance with Da Zhou, we must be prepared to go to war with Da Zhou after destroying Da Wei."
"We must prepare food, troops and horses in advance, and at the same time win over the princes and ministers of the Great Zhou, and send spies to go deep into various parts of the Great Zhou to stir up people's hearts. If a war breaks out, the Great Zhou will face internal and external troubles. At that time, it will not be possible just with a few strong men. It can solve the problem.”
Hearing this, all the ministers shouted that the emperor was wise.
A courtier said, "By the way, Your Majesty, if we form an alliance with Zhou Dynasty, should we directly send envoys to exchange credentials, or..."
"There is an opportunity now." Emperor Zhou said, "Next month, Emperor Zhou will hold a birthday banquet for his only daughter, Princess Ning'an, and at the same time recruit a consort for Princess Ning'an. This is an opportunity for us."
A courtier said, "Princess Ning'an is not only of noble birth, but she is also a direct disciple of Master Jixia Academy. It is said that she is beautiful and talented, and it may not be easy to become her consort. Are there any of us who are worthy of Ning'an?" The princess’s handsome young man?”
Another courtier said, "It's a pity that the emperor has a queen. Otherwise, the emperor would have taken action and abducted Princess Ning'an to work with us."
Another minister followed up and said, "It doesn't matter if you have a queen! I believe that as long as the emperor personally takes action, he will definitely win the heart of Princess Ning'an. When the time comes, you can make Princess Ning'an your concubine..."
"Don't be joking." Emperor Daqian smiled and said, "As for who will go to Dazhou and participate in the position of consort, I already have a candidate."
"My fourth and fifth brothers have admired Princess Ning'an for a long time.
, I heard a few days ago that the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty wanted to recruit a consort for Princess Ning'an. They have already set off and will surely arrive in the Great Zhou Dynasty soon."
"The fourth brother is the most talented person in our army. He has good character and appearance. The fifth brother is a unique cultivation genius and a general who governs the country. If they two go out, one of them must be able to get Princess Ning'an. Heart."
The ministers nodded, and they all knew that the emperor's two younger brothers were both dragons among men.
If even the emperor's two younger brothers couldn't win Princess Ning'an's heart, then they really couldn't think of anyone else who could sway Princess Ning'an's heart.
Emperor Daqian said seriously, "From now on, everyone will perform their duties and start preparing. We will never fight an unprepared battle."
"If I can unify Central Continent in my lifetime, then all of you will be heroes."
"I can promise here to ensure that you will be prosperous and wealthy for the rest of your life, and that your family will be prosperous from generation to generation."
All the ministers knelt on the ground and shouted long live the emperor.
…
Qingyun Sword Sect.
The entrance to the meeting hall.
Master Changmei looked at the name of King Zhou Wu on the Heaven and Earth Clock, and thought to himself, "So what if the sixth place is ranked? You might as well just give me the Zhen clan's imperial weapon, hehe~"
Ye Qiu noticed that the Changmei Master was having fun and asked, "Old man, what are you laughing at?"
"Nothing." Changmeizhen's expression quickly returned to normal.
At this moment, the words on the Heaven and Earth Clock disappeared.
"when--"
Then, the bell rang again, resounding in all directions.
Immediately afterwards, a familiar name caught Ye Qiu's eyes.
"Fifth place, Dugu Wudi, Saint King realm, the first headmaster of Shushan Holy Land, good at..."
