Journey to the West: From the Primordial Era

Chapter 143 Emperor Yi's Death

Huang Feihu hesitated for a moment and said, "I agree with Doctor Fei Zhong's opinion. However, Your Highness has not yet ascended the throne, so we cannot arouse the hostility of the ministers in the court. Even if we issue a recruitment order, we have to wait until Your Highness ascends the throne!"

"I think the same as General Huang!"

Seeing this, Fei Lian hurriedly spoke.

Crown Prince Yinshou nodded slowly, agreeing with the opinions of everyone in the hall.

At this time, a guard came hurriedly.

"Your Highness, something bad has happened. His Majesty suddenly fainted while walking in the back garden. The Grand Tutor and the Emperor's uncle sent someone to ask Your Highness to come to the palace as soon as possible!"

hum!

As soon as the news came out, everyone's face turned pale.

"Father fainted?"

Crown Prince Yin Shou was greatly surprised and stood up suddenly.

Since the Five Emperors, the cultivation of successive emperors has not been very high, especially Emperor Yi, who suffered indelible injuries in order to eliminate the overlord of Xiqi, Ji Li. His life span was greatly affected.

The reason why he was able to hold on until now was thanks to Grand Tutor Wen Zhong who used his connections to get an elixir from Jin'ao Island to alleviate his injuries.

After Yin Shou returned from the Eastern Expedition, Emperor Yi seemed to be relieved to see that his successor was both civil and military and could be entrusted with the fate of the country, so he put his worries to rest.

Without the strong desire to survive, his body deteriorated rapidly.

"Your Highness, please come to the palace immediately! Even if the Grand Tutor and the Emperor's uncle are here, you must not be careless. You must not let the eldest and second princes get there first!"

Huang Feihu reacted quickly, holding onto Prince Yinshou's shoulders and rushing out.

After he came out, he shouted repeatedly, asking the guards of the Eastern Palace to prepare the carriage and rush to the palace quickly!

"A new emperor appoints new ministers! It is finally time for His Highness to ascend the throne. I can also make a name for myself!"

Fei Zhong, who was left behind by Yin Shou and Huang Feihu, tried hard to suppress his joy.

If he hadn't seen the guards and maids in the East Palace all with panic-stricken faces, he would have even laughed out loud!

"By the way, if His Majesty dies, the Four Marquises and the Nine Provinces Marquis will definitely come to Chaoge to pay tribute. Your Highness's attitude towards the Marquis of Xibo is not very good. When the time comes, I will help Your Highness come up with a plan to see if I can solve the problem!"

"Well, there are also Xuan Clan leader Xuan Kong and Qingzhou Hou Xuan Zong, especially Xuan Zong, Xuan Kong's son. Xuan Zong came from the Eastern Continent to Eastern Qingzhou and led an army to fight for the Qingzhou. During the Eastern Expedition, Your Highness thought highly of him. I have to find a way to make friends with him!"

Fei Zhong kept calculating in his mind.

Not long after, loud bell sounds rang throughout Chaoge, attracting the attention of everyone in the city.

When many high-ranking officials heard the bell, they jumped up suddenly and rushed towards the palace.

The sound of the bell even spread everywhere, reaching the tens of millions of miles around Chaoge. Countless slaves working outside the city raised their heads, their eyes filled with numbness.

In the void, the flying black bird let out a mournful cry, as if seeing off the Human Emperor.

Swish! The black bird spread its wings, extending for thousands of miles.

Even the golden immortals and demon immortals at the immortal level could feel a powerful aura and appearance, and they could not exert even one-third of their full strength.

"The Emperor has passed away!"

Experienced immortals and monsters all turned their eyes towards Chaoge.

Within 27 days of the death of the Emperor, the mysterious bird transformed by the luck of the Great Shang Dynasty will spread its wings and shock the barbarians, immortals, gods, demons and monsters in all directions. Any immortals, demons and monsters that are unfavorable to Chaoge will be counterattacked by the Great Shang Dynasty with all their strength.

The black bird, which was blessed with good fortune, flapped its wings, and Chaoge was shaken!

When the news of the death of the Emperor spreads everywhere, both the Shenzhou occupied by the human race and the four barbarian lands will be in turmoil, causing countless undercurrents.

......

Qingzhou City in the east of the Shang Dynasty.

The affairs of Qingzhou were nothing more than internal affairs and military affairs. Military affairs were handled by the four generals, and Xuanzong only had to take charge of the overall situation.

As for internal affairs, with the relatively simple customs of this world, as long as the safety of the people in the city can be guaranteed, they can accept the rule with peace of mind.

"Da Lang has really grown up!"

After seeing his son Xuanzong constantly issuing orders and quickly taking control of Qingzhou, Qin Hua, who controlled Xuankong's divine clone, couldn't help but sigh.

Since his son Xuanzong did a good job, he was happy to let this divine clone practice and put all his attention on his original body.

At this time, after sorting out various information about Qingzhou, Xuanzong found that in the past two years, the population of Qingzhou had increased by more than two million compared with before. Looking into the reasons, it was also related to him.

Before the Shang people set out on the Eastern Expedition, his father Xuankong had given him some soldiers, farms and slaves.

During the Eastern Expedition, Xuanzong captured a large number of Dongyi prisoners of war. These prisoners of war and slaves could not be kept and food wasted, so he ordered these people to be registered and cultivated in the wilderness of Qingzhou.

These people were very effective in farming, which resulted in a lot more grain in Qingzhou.

After the grain was available, the farm steward who worked for Qingzhou Marquis Xuanzong followed his decrees in Linzi and managed the farm slaves accordingly, and many slaves who had made contributions were deported from slavery.

After learning the news, the savages outside Qingzhou City and humans from other ethnic groups in the mountains and forests took the initiative to surrender to Xuanzong's men in Qingzhou.

Coupled with the influence of the later order to recruit talents, the greater Xuanzong's reputation, the more people came to him.

The Xuan Clan of the Eastern Continent was too far away, and many of those who came to seek refuge there were unwilling to make the long journey, so they stayed in Qingzhou.

"With more than two million people, it is comparable to a smaller vassal!"

More than two million people plus the many people who traveled a long distance to Linzi, the number of people who came to seek refuge is extremely impressive! If you tell others about it, even Donglu will be jealous.

Only then did Xuanzong realize that his reputation was so useful.

In addition to the increase in population in Qingzhou, the reputation of the medicinal wine refined by the elders of the Xuan clan also spread.

In addition to supplying most of these spiritual wines to the elite troops, a portion was also sold, earning a lot of profits from the city's merchants and the large and small forces affiliated with the Xuan clan.

Today, there are nearly a thousand peak celestial warriors trained with spiritual wine.

Although the chance of a celestial immortal warrior advancing to the earth realm is not high, but even if the chance is only one percent, Qingzhou can still have dozens more true immortals and five or six profound immortal generals.

Moreover, as time goes by, the number of celestial warriors can be increased again.

In less than a few decades, Qingzhou's military talent will catch up with Xiqi and surpass Donglu to become the leader of the two hundred princes in the east.

In addition to the spiritual wine, the medicine refined by Taishang Laojun was also secretly given to the Xuan clan. The elders of the Xuan clan also had the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, with hundreds of Golden Immortals, thousands of Taiyi Xuan Immortals, and more than a dozen Taiyi Golden Immortal elders sitting in the Xuan clan.

Now the strength of the Xuan clan is not weaker than that of Dong Bohou, but the core force of the Xuan clan has not entered Qingzhou. Only Xuanzong's own forces can suppress Qingzhou. These Qingzhou troops are all forces cultivated by Xuanzong himself.

......

Qingzhou Marquis Mansion, inside the backyard.

Qin Hua controlled Xuankong's divine fetus clone to practice in seclusion. He was preparing to take back some of his spiritual consciousness and concentrate on seclusion in the prehistoric sea.

When Qin Hua was about to withdraw his consciousness, a messenger from Chaoge came galloping over, conveying something extremely important!

When the Human Emperor passed away, the Four Directions Marquis and the Nine Provinces Marquis would serve as representatives of the eight hundred towns and go to Chaoge. On the one hand, they would see the Human Emperor off, and on the other hand, they would pay homage to the new Human Emperor who would take over.

"Emperor Yi passed away, and Yin Shou succeeded to the throne and became Emperor Xin! The great calamity of the Conferred God is about to come!"

When Qin Hua suddenly received this news, even though he had expected it, he couldn't help but be shocked.

After Emperor Xin ascended the throne, Yuan Futong of Beihai rebelled first, which attracted the Grand Tutor Wen Zhong to go and fight against him. Then Emperor Xin recited a poem in Nuwa Palace and issued an edict asking Jizhou Hou Su Hu to offer his daughter.

As a result, Emperor Xin angered the goddess Nuwa, which completely marked the beginning of the great calamity of the Conferred Gods.

"The Emperor is both civil and military, and his actions are not so superficial! He asked Jizhou Marquis Su Hu to offer his daughter as a gift, probably to win over Jizhou Marquis, the richest of the nine marquises, and use Jizhou Marquis to balance the power of Donglu in Chaoge..."

Qin Hua's spiritual consciousness continued to stay in Xuankong's divine clone, and he began to recall the information in his memory.
