The sixth prince's move to become emperor is no different from playing monkey tricks, but it is very attractive to some forces with uncertain attitudes.
Just like the monks from the Luo family who have committed crimes and made meritorious deeds, they might really turn to the Sixth Prince if given the chance.
There were still many people who supported the Sixth Prince back then. More than half of the Zhao family members under Emperor Zhao had supported the Sixth Prince.
There are also many small forces, such as the Guiyuan Sword Sect, which is the Sixth Prince's biggest supporter.
Most of the monks below Jindan and below led by Wang Daoyuan were trained by the Guiyuan Sword Sect.
Among them, those who are not strong-willed, or those who are ambitious and do not have enough brains may defect to the past.
Emperor Zhao was stationed in Nanli Mountain in the south of the central part of Zhennan County. There was a fourth-level middle-grade non-attribute spiritual vein here.
Two thousand miles southwest of Nanli Mountain is the remaining line of Fulong Mountain defended by monks from the Song Dynasty and Wanling Sect.
The Sixth Prince sent someone to send a message to Emperor Zhao, asking the Ninth Prince to abdicate immediately and return power to him.
For other members of the Zhao family, those who turn from darkness to light will not be punished.
Those who stubbornly resist will be killed without mercy.
When the message came, all the monks in the Zhao family yelled at him.
In the past, it was okay to be timid and incompetent. It could only be regarded as a character flaw.
It would be better now to collude with Emperor Song to kill his father's enemy and beat his own brother.
This is no longer a character flaw, this is a heinous crime.
Zhao Jingguo bowed to Emperor Zhao and said, "Your Majesty, as Zong Zhengqing, I have the responsibility to discipline my clan members.
There is such a scum among the tribe, I have neglected my duty, please forgive me, Your Majesty."
Emperor Zhao waved his hands and said: "As the emperor, I have the responsibility to educate all people.
If something like this happens, my responsibility is even greater.
Now is not the time for accountability. Song Yan borrowed the name of Sixth Brother to unite with the remnants of Wanling Sect and Can Yang Palace to bring trouble to the Southern Territory.
If we cannot control him, Zhao will never have peace."
King Linhai said angrily: "Drive him out of the Zhao family, and none of his descendants will be left alive."
Emperor Zhao shook his head and said: "After three rebellions, the Zhao family's bloodline is already low enough.
He doesn't care about those descendants, but I can't bear to fight with him."
Zhao Jingbang, who had a wrinkled face on the side, said: "Your Majesty is kind, but you don't have to be so merciful.
Ling Tian is a wicked person who is brave and cowardly, and he is greedy for power and position.
He is just a white-eyed wolf who is not familiar with the food, and it will be of no use to him no matter how good he is.
The veteran has stayed in the Song Dynasty for hundreds of years and knows Song Yan very well.
This kid is like a hungry wolf, as long as he is given a taste of something sweet, he will keep chasing and biting him.
If you want to make him honest, you can only break his bones, leaving him with no hope of turning over.
The number of Song family's golden elixir monks is too small. If you want to kill his ambition, it's best to kill a few more Song family's golden elixirs.
This left him without enough financial resources to maintain stability, and the Song Kingdom returned to a state of disunity."
Emperor Zhao nodded: "Uncle Huang is right. When the war begins, try to keep an eye on the Song family's golden elixirs."
Everyone claimed it was.
Zhao Jingguo cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, since you want to kill the Song family's golden elixir, you need top experts to take action.
There are no particularly strong masters in the Song Dynasty, but Song Yan's strength should not be underestimated. He should be about the same as Zhao Lingtian.
Coupled with the Yulong Rebel, there are three top masters.
There is also the Xuan Ming Rebel. He has the Dark Water Xuan Turtle with him. Even outside the water, his strength should be higher than that of Lingjiang.
However, the Dark Water Black Turtle's attack power is not strong, and Ling Jiang can barely hold off the Black Sea rebel.
We only have two top combat forces, the minister and your majesty, here. Facing the enemy's three top combat forces, it's really hard to kill them by force.
In my opinion, it is better to transfer Prince Qingli and Zhong Zhenyang over.
Once the county king uses his small magical power, coupled with the Golden Crow variant, his strength exceeds that of Xuanming Zhenren.
The last time Zhong Zhenyang was in the Jiuyou Xuanjing Mine, he just used his small magical power to escape, and he was able to instantly overwhelm the county king's small magical power. His strength should not be inferior to that of Yulong Zhenren.
Transfer the two of them over so that we can kill the Song family's golden elixir."
Emperor Zhao pondered for a moment: "What the young uncle said makes sense. King Linhai, go to Yanyue Mountain and ask Prince Qingli and Zhong Zhenyang to come over.
You will temporarily sit in Yanyue Mountain to prevent the enemy from threatening the hinterland of Zhao State from the north."
King Linhai bowed his hands and said yes, and then left Nanli Mountain.
Came to Yanyue Mountain and conveyed Emperor Zhao's wishes to Wang Daoyuan and Zhong Zhenyang.
The two of them did not waste any time, explained the matter about Yanyue Mountain, and then hid themselves and rushed to Nanli Mountain.
Arriving in front of Emperor Zhao, the two of them bowed and saluted and said, "I have traveled a long way to meet you, Your Majesty."
Emperor Zhao nodded slightly: "The two beloved ladies are of equal height."
Wang Daoyuan and Zhong Zhenyang both expressed their gratitude.
Emperor Zhao asked: "I have discussed with all the ministers that in order to defeat our opponents, we must first dissolve their alliance.
Wan Ling Sect and Can Yang Palace have no way out and will fight to the bitter end.
If you want to disintegrate them, you can only frighten Song Yan, which requires killing a few more Song family golden elixirs.
On the rebel side, there are three top masters, Zhao Lingtian, Yulong Rebel and Song Yan, as well as Xuanming Rebel, a slightly inferior master.
I wonder if the two beloved ladies are strong enough to deal with these four people?"
Zhong Zhenyang did not dare to take the initiative, so Wang Daoyuan answered first: "Your Majesty, among these four people, I have only seen Zong Zhengqing fighting against the Yulong rebels.
Even if I try my best, it will be difficult to defeat him."
Zhong Zhenyang continued: "I know a thing or two about the strength of the four of them and His Royal Highness.
In my opinion, the prince's strength should be slightly lower than that of the top masters.
Not in the water, he can defeat the Xuan Ming rebels.
The Zhao family's exercises and spells are somewhat restrained.
Therefore, I am not sure how to deal with the Sixth Prince.
But against Song Yan and the Yulong rebels, we don’t have to fall behind."
Zhao Jingguo smiled and said: "Zhao Lingtian is as timid as a rat, so he will definitely not dare to take action.
Your Majesty and Emperor Zhao are the kings of a country and should not act lightly.
At the beginning, the opponent will only have two masters, Yulong Rebel and Xuanming Rebel, to fight.
I can withstand the Yulong rebel, and Ling Jiang can also entangle the Xuanming rebel.
His Royal Highness and Zhong Daoyou kill enemies very quickly, but they can kill the Song monks as quickly as possible."
Everyone had no objection and wanted to make some preparations and attack the remaining areas of Fulong Mountain.
Unexpectedly, the Sixth Prince took the initiative and the group left Fulong Mountain and headed towards Nanli Mountain.
Naturally, Emperor Zhao couldn't let go of the benefits that came to his door, so he led the monks to the outside of the mountain.
Of course, Wang Daoyuan and Zhong Zhenyang did not show up directly, but hid three hundred miles north of Nanli Mountain.
They hid themselves when they came to Nanli Mountain. Emperor Song probably didn't know they were here.
Both of them are very good at hiding their secrets. From this distance, it would be difficult for the golden elixir monks to detect them.
Soon, a large auspicious cloud flew over from the southwest.
The Emperor of Song Dynasty and the Sixth Prince all wore royal robes and twelve crowns on their heads.
Standing next to them were Master Yulong, Master Xuanming, Master Diyan, and four late-stage Jindan monks from the Song Dynasty.
The sixth prince spoke first: "More than five hundred years ago, three sects rebelled and captured the capital.
Before his death, my father ordered Zhao Jingguo to hand over the Mountain and River Seal to me. This is the legend passed down to me.
You actually disobeyed the late emperor's decree and forced me to abdicate. This is an act of great rebellion and injustice.
As the saying goes, "If you gain the right path, you will get many help, but if you lose the right path, you will get few help."
I am the orthodox emperor of the Zhao Kingdom and a righteous king.
First, the Song Emperor raised his troops to help me suppress the rebellion, and then the Wanling Sect and Canyang Palace monks repented and were willing to be my pioneers.
If you still think that you are descendants of the Zhao family, kneel down and ask for surrender.
For the sake of being part of the Zhao family, I will spare your life..."
Looking at his triumphant face, Zhao Jingguo couldn't suppress his anger and cursed angrily: "A beast that has betrayed its ancestors, a lost dog, dares to bark in front of His Majesty.
Now, just surrender and follow me to the ancestors' souls to plead guilty. I will also recognize you as a descendant of the Zhao family.
If you persist in your stubbornness, I will drive you out of the Zhao family."
After saying that, a phantom of an aqua blue sword condensed in his hand.
Master Yulong flew forward on a cloud and angrily said: "You traitor dares to insult the Holy One. I will take you down and tie you to the Holy One to plead guilty."
Master Yulong's hands are stained with the blood of the Zhao clan, and now he calls himself a loyal minister of the Zhao family and calls Zhao Jingguo a traitor. It is really a thief's cry to catch a thief.
