Chapter 1099: Let’s be polite first and then attack
City of Gods, Wushuang Mansion
If Shangjing in the Shenwu Dynasty was already quite prosperous, then the Divine Capital of Daxia was at least two to three times the size of Shangjing. Ever since Long Taizu conquered the Divine Capital, this ancient capital with thousands of years of history has been properly managed.
The capital of the gods is backed by the Longjiang River and connects the north and the south. The financial and material resources from all parts of Daxia will be concentrated in this great city.
This was not the first time Chu Qianqiu came to the divine capital, but the last time he came, the Dragon Emperor controlled the Human Emperor Sword, the Imperial Palace Formation, etc.
At that time, Chu Qianqiu was able to kill the Dragon Emperor with a sneak attack.
But he couldn't really kill the opponent. He could even rely on the Human Emperor Sword to save his life.
But now that the Dragon Emperor died on the Whirlpool Island, Princess Wushuang, whom he supported, relied on the Dragon Emperor's body, his edict, and the witnesses of five ministers who cared about life and more than a dozen golden-armored generals to obtain the great treasure.
"Is it because the wife is calling her husband urgently because the enemy is very difficult?"
When Chu Qianqiu saw Madam Wushuang coming in a hurry, she couldn't help but smile and said:
"indeed so."
"The prince, the fourth prince, and the emperor's uncle seemed to have colluded to oppose my enthronement, disrupted the enthronement ceremony, and claimed that the edict was false."
"But with the strong support of Marshal Wei and others, the court of Daxia is now divided into three parts."
"On the one hand, the five Gu Ming Ministers, Yulin Army, Siming Sect, Dragon Tiger Sect, Jade Deer Academy, Guiyi Sect and other forces, as well as some forces that I used to run, as well as Tianfeng Sect, etc., support them.
I ascend the throne."
"The second piece is the crown prince, the fourth prince, the emperor's uncle and the others."
"Originally, the crown prince and the fourth prince had their own disputes. Behind the crown prince was the Long Xiang Army, and behind the fourth prince was the Xiaoguo Army."
"Of course, before my father died of illness, these two field armies were loyal to my father. The eldest brother and fourth brother only had some supporters."
"Not only that, the eldest brother is backed by the Yuxiuzhai, the fourth brother is from the Taixuan Sect, and the emperor's uncle is from the Yuxiao sect."
"If you take into account the attitude of the aristocratic family and the mother clan, the situation will be even more complicated."
Princess Wushuang will keep the story short and try to explain the current situation of the Daxia royal family as simply as possible.
Daxia also has three major field armies, namely the Yulin Army, the Longxiang Army, and the Xiaoguo Army.
Wei Wuji was the nominal generalissimo, and theoretically had the ability to command the three armies.
It's not that Wei Wuji's status surpassed that of Xu Guogong, but that Daxia learned the lessons of the Taizhou battle.
An important reason for the disastrous defeat of the Imperial Guard Army was that General Long had the power to dispatch the three field armies at that time, while Wei Wuji could only control his own Imperial Guard Army. There were problems with the coordination of the three armies.
So he was pushed to the ground and rubbed by General Long.
After this battle, the Dragon Emperor not only did not blame Wei Wuji, but also gave him the position of generalissimo so that he could coordinate the three armies in combat.
Then in the battle at Tianlang City, it was Wei Wuji who violently beat up the Shenwu Dynasty.
This position of generalissimo has duality. Only when war breaks out, Wei Wuji has the authority to dispatch. On weekdays, he is influential but cannot directly interfere with the other two armies.
"This Long family is indeed much more powerful."
"The three major field armies are under the control of the royal family. Once there is any trouble, a large number of clans can take action."
"No wonder Daxia has been able to survive the decline of times many times and remain standing for thousands of years."
"Sure enough, there is a reason."
Chu Qianqiu couldn't help but sigh after hearing Lady Wushuang's brief explanation of Daxia's situation.
For example, the Xiao family royal family has wiped out all legitimate descendants, and the only royal branch, King Jing, is still very ambitious.
For Daxia, what they lack most is the sons and grandsons of dragons.
The royal family members are extremely strong. There are princes, princes, princes, and imperial uncles. None of them is a fuel-efficient lamp.
For example, the crown prince and the fourth prince, two strong candidates for the throne, are both masters of the manifest realm, and they are no different than the princess.
Such a strong clan can stand up when faced with a dynasty crisis and prevent conspirators like Chu Qianqiu from changing the royal family's property.
Having a strong clan has equal advantages and disadvantages.
The disadvantage is that once the old emperor leaves, there will be a situation where Kowloon will seize the throne.
Originally, the Crown Prince and the Fourth Prince did not have much hope. The Dragon Emperor was in his prime, so there was no problem that he could live for another two hundred years.
If Chu Qianqiu hadn't sent off the Dragon Emperor in advance, his position could be said to be as secure as Mount Tai.
As a result, when the Dragon Emperor died, they got a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, but they watched helplessly as this opportunity was taken away by Chu Qianqiu. Can they be convinced?
Obviously it's impossible.
The entire Shenwu Dynasty has now succumbed to Chu Qianqiu's force, but the prince, the fourth prince and others have never felt it.
Once the Dragon Emperor died, the entire Daxia court was now in chaos.
"The Long family has always attached great importance to the clan. As long as the main line is strong, we are not afraid of rebellion by the dragon sons and grandsons from all over the country."
"Especially the inheritance ceremony of Daxia, which allows the descendants who inherit the throne to quickly master the "Taizu Shilong Jue"."
"The emperor's uncle did not obey the imperial edict and questioned the authenticity of the edict, which made me very passive."
"The emperor's uncle is obviously an excuse, so I suspect that he has joined forces with the eldest brother and the fourth brother."
Lady Wushuang also said helplessly.
Although she has a legacy, she has the bloodline given by her father, and even has the title of Military Prime Minister.
But to truly match the power of Taizu Shilong, it is necessary to go to the [True Dragon Pond] treasured by the royal family. Only then can the Wushuang Lady truly achieve transcendence and transform herself into the True Dragon Emperor.
The problem is that the True Dragon Pond is controlled by the Emperor's uncle. He is another strong man at the peak of martial arts in the royal family, and his status is quite respected. Even if the Dragon Emperor is resurrected, he will be called "Uncle Wang" when meeting him.
Now he suspects that Princess Wushuang is fake and even murdered the previous generation Dragon Emperor, so naturally he refuses to let Princess Wushuang complete the ceremony.
"It's indeed complicated enough."
"Almost all the forces in Daxia are involved, and many of them are familiar old friends."
Chu Qianqiu nodded. When he went to Beijing, the situation was not that complicated because Chu Qianqiu only needed to complete it as quickly as possible.
Then the masters of the palace, the imperial guards and other royal forces will be of no use.
This time it was different, although Wei Wuji and others had quickly returned to the Divine Capital in an attempt to control the situation.
However, the news of the Dragon Emperor's death still returned to the divine capital earlier than Wei Wuji and others. The enemy had time to react and quickly formed an alliance, making it impossible to successfully inherit the throne.
"But with this little strength, Wei Wuji and the others should still be able to suppress it."
"The key is still the rumors about Laojun Guan, right?"
"Yes, husband."
"Marshal Wei found out an important piece of information, which was uploaded from the Fourth Prince's Mansion."
"It is said that the descendants of Laojun Guan are active in this operation, and the cooperation between the eldest brother and the fourth brother was also facilitated by them."
Princess Wushuang could have suppressed the situation, after all, the prince and the fourth prince seemed to be inseparable.
As a result, they united this time, and there was Laojun Guan behind them.
Laojun Temple also produced Hedao deities in the beginning, which is not comparable to other sects.
Now that the decline of the times is approaching, not only the Future Temple is coming back, but also the Laojun Temple is about to move.
"Then please come over."
Chu Qianqiu said with a smile after listening to Lady Wushuang's story.
