Monarch of Evernight: The road to the 117-liter valve
bsp;Eunuch Liu's face was as calm as water, and he could not tell whether he was happy or angry. He asked again: "There are several ways to ascend to the throne. I wonder which one your Majesty intends to take?"
"As the empress of the Qin Dynasty, I should follow the ancestral system and practice ancient methods."
Eunuch Liu's face softened slightly and he said: "My empress has farsightedness and is far superior to men. I admire her."
The so-called ancient law is the rule established by Taizu, which involves acquiring land through conquests, conferring titles based on military achievements, and gradually expanding until it reaches the standard of the clan. This is the most orthodox, oldest and most difficult path. Ordinarily, if a high-ranking family wants to advance into a powerful family, they need a lot of military merit. Therefore, in the early days of the empire, the path to the rise of each clan was paved with countless corpses of the dark race.
It's just that this method is too difficult and slow to increase the status of the family. Even if a family has many talents, it will have to operate for more than a hundred years, and it will take several generations of hard work before it is possible. But precisely because it is too difficult, the clan system has gradually been criticized as a tool for powerful clans to remain stubborn and monopolize resources. Many poor scholars even ran around and cried out, even wanting to abolish the clan.
When the Martial Ancestor was resurrected, there were many capable ministers and powerful generals, and the most powerful men gathered in the court. Many of them had outstanding achievements in the contemporary era, but according to the ancient law, they could not be promoted.
The Martial Ancestor moved according to the times, opening more ways to ascend the valve, and then there was a grand scene where the nine valves were together. At that time, the Nine Clans were all well-deserved, and no one in the world was dissatisfied.
However, after Wuzu, the world declined and people's hearts were not as old as before. The emperors of several dynasties were very happy about their achievements and wanted to leave a name in history. But they did not have the unparalleled martial arts skills of Wu Zu, and they were instigated by people with ulterior motives, so they set their minds on the road to promotion.
Suddenly, there were more and more ways to rise to the top, sometimes more than a dozen, and the number of sects also increased dramatically. There were more than 20 sects in chaos, and in order to remove the real sects such as Zhang and Zhao, To differentiate from this, the emperor at that time also divided the clans into three levels.
The more clans there are, the less valuable they are. Many families were unable to expand externally, so they had to rely on internal fighting if they wanted to gain territory. Therefore, the court was full of chaos and chaos.
Fortunately, a wise king finally emerged, who vigorously rectified the chaos among the sects, restored the ancient system, and downgraded the many sects that were involved, until only five sects were left. These five valves are the real and worthy gate valves.
The emperor also compiled history at the same time, making no secret of this chaos, and only recognized the five clans, and the rest were labeled with fake names. For a long time, the descendants of the family involved have been controversial about this, believing that one dynasty cannot be retroactively abolished for three generations and must be treated differently. However, successive emperors have never relaxed on this matter.
After rectifying the clans, Da Qin reorganized the path to ascending to the clan, and finally left five avenues. So far, the most controversial one is the king's opening of the valve.
This article has been used several times, but the rich family has a long heritage and a profound foundation, which cannot be accumulated in a short time. After the death of the King of Heaven, there is a precedent for his descendants to lose all their property soon after. In addition, a wealthy family is not just about profits and reputation, but also responsibilities. Just the responsibility of defending the land and the burden of war are enough to deplete a family's savings in more than ten years.
Right now, rumors of the empire's resurgence have been circulating for several years. In fact, turmoil has also begun at the same time, and the ups and downs of the clans have reappeared. First, the Song clan was downgraded, and then many aristocratic families were eyeing the promotion.
Empress Li revealed her intention at this moment and wanted to be promoted according to ancient methods. That would only be possible if the Li family would gain massive military exploits in the coming war. In this process, it goes without saying that he must have contributed a lot to the empire.
So Eunuch Liu was also impressed by it. In fact, given the special nature of the Li family's Tianjishu family and her status as empress, there are at least two other ways to choose from. But as a woman, Li Hou had great determination and courage and resolutely chose this most difficult path.
Choosing this path is actually equivalent to choosing the interests of the empire. After Eunuch Liu admired her, he said: "Your Majesty understands righteousness very well, and I admire you. If you need me, I can use you wherever you want. Just give me your orders."
Li Hou said: "I was thinking about it, and there is indeed something I want to ask my father-in-law."
"Your Majesty, please speak."
"The father of this child is currently exploring a new world over at Yonglu. I heard that he recently encountered a Mossar werewolf. The Mossar lord Sousa also heard that he has appeared in the new world. This What to do? ”
"It is the responsibility of the king to deal with the king. The old slave is weak and dare not go beyond it."
Empress Li sighed and said: "Father, I might as well say it clearly, this matter involves two factions of people in the court and China. The key is how to treat the father of the child. To be honest, there is a faction of people with motives other than mine. They wanted to use the hands of the Mosar werewolves to get rid of that person. But father-in-law, think about it, that person has been growing up in the empire since he was a child. Dazai, the adopted son of Lin Dazai, has he ever done anything to disgrace the empire? If he hadn't destroyed two Grand Duke ships first and defended Baicheng behind, how could we have won this battle so smoothly? Fighting. Treating heroes like this will make people feel cold."
Eunuch Liu was silent for a long time, and after a long time he said: "Those who are not from my race will have different hearts. These eight words were passed down by Taizu and are ancestral precepts. How should we evaluate today, thousands of years later?" It's not something that the old slave can comment on. That person's actions in Yonglu are not beyond criticism. If nothing else, just taking in so many werewolves is enough to prove the meaning of self-reliance. In my humble opinion, it might be more appropriate to just consider how to resolve Sosa’s crisis at the moment.”
"My father-in-law is absolutely right. It's just that Sosa is not an ordinary person, but how should he deal with it?"
Eunuch Liu said slowly: "After much thought, the only kings who can move the court now are the old prince and King Qingyang. Neither of them are suitable."
Empress Li smiled bitterly, "It would be embarrassing to have this matter brought to the attention of King Qingyang."
"For today's plan, it seems that only the old slave can take a trip for the empress."
Empress Li lowered her eyes and said, "My father-in-law, what will happen if we ignore him?"
"No!" Li Kuanglan blurted out from beside him.
Empress Li glared at her and said, "There is no place for you to talk here."
Empress Li has been accumulating power for a long time, and Li Kuanglan really doesn’t dare to say anything more.
Eunuch Liu said: "Your Majesty, you probably know that group's plan. Do you still think you can bring that person back?"
Empress Li sighed and said: "I came to see my father-in-law just because I knew their plan. Even if I couldn't pull that person back, I couldn't push him to the other side. If it weren't for the old prince among them, I would have doubted their intentions. ”
Eunuch Liu thought for a while and said, "There is a way, which may be effective."
"Father-in-law, please speak."
"There is a treasure in the palace. It was a spear made by the greatest master craftsman in the empire during the reign of Emperor Wu. It was named Longquan. The master craftsman had a lofty ambition and wanted to make a new weapon. Longquan still couldn't bear Wuzu's shocking force, but the gun's body was still intact. The quality of the heart-burial gun barrel is comparable to that of a famous gun. If you add Longquan, the power should be comparable to the top ten famous guns. With this artifact in hand, you can still deal with it even if you encounter Sosa."
"Longquan? I have never heard of it."
"Your Majesty, your only focus is on the magic of heaven. There are too many clutter in the imperial palace's warehouse, and Longquan is already a piece of scrap metal. How can it be of any concern to you?"
Li Kuanglan was a little curious, "Why didn't the Martial Ancestor use the Human Emperor back then?"
"The Human Emperor's power is scattered but never gathered together. He is good at killing enemies in battle, but he is of little use in the battle of kings. The Martial Ancestor has a stubborn temperament, and he can destroy the heaven and earth when he strikes. The Human Emperor is against him. However, it was too weak. That’s why we summoned craftsmen from all over the world to make the famous gun again, and that’s why Longquan was made. However, the material of Longquan is still not as indestructible as the famous gun.” /
After explaining it this way, Li Kuanglan understood.
But Empress Li still had doubts, and said thoughtfully: "If it's from that warehouse, I can get it, but how do I send it there and how do I install it?"
Two different force guns cannot be easily put together. Especially masterpieces such as Burial Heart and Longquan, which are just one step away from the top ten famous guns, cannot be operated by non-real masters. As long as there is a slight difference, the power will drop sharply.
Eunuch Liu said calmly: "Your Majesty, there is no need to worry. This matter was brought up by the old slave. Of course, the old slave must go through it."
Empress Li stood up and bowed deeply, "Thank you, father-in-law."
Yonglu, the city of blue waves.
Qianye returned to the Grand Duke's Mansion again and summoned the generals to learn about the intelligence during this period and the progress of the war in various parts of the land. What Qianye didn't expect was that the Allied Forces of the Family were making extremely rapid progress. They had penetrated more than 200 kilometers into the Burning Fire Territory, captured several large cities in succession, and annihilated more than 200,000 Burning Fire werewolves.
With the werewolf heavy infantry taking over the hard work of hand-to-hand combat, the family’s elite private army took advantage of firepower and equipment to the extreme. Even the cargo ships were equipped with anti-surface artillery. In every battle, the fire-burning werewolves had not yet charged. When they reach the front line, most of them will be wiped out by layers of firepower.
In front of this force that was armed to the teeth, the charge of the Fire Werewolves showed no courage at all, and only had records of being massacred one by one.
The tragic defeat on the frontal battlefield made Duke Burning Fire furious, and he couldn't help but want to fight Duke Wind several times. The Duke of Gale Wind has not recovered from his old injuries and is already in a weak stage, so he is not willing to really fight against Ran Huo.
Fortunately, after William conquered the Gale Territory last time, he ordered someone to send several pieces of equipment collected at the top of the peaks, including a long and short sword, and a set of armor that can enhance speed and defense. With these, Duke Gale's combat power increased greatly, and he confronted Ranhuo several times, but in the end, Ranhuo did not dare to take action.
But now the fire has almost been pushed to the limit. At this time, fighting on two fronts is not a good thing.
After Qianye thought about it, he immediately ordered a large-scale construction project to be carried out at the border fortress in the Gale Territory, renovating the fortress, and then accumulating heavy troops for defense here. At the same time, they withdrew the Allied Forces of the Family that had penetrated deep into the Burning Fire Territory, and prepared to enter the new world after reorganization. Duke Gale was also secretly recalled.
After giving the order, the representatives of each family were overjoyed. Although it was a pity to spit out the territory they had already obtained, they could finally enter the new world, the legendary place full of gold and treasures. And this also means that the aristocratic families are finally recognized and accepted by Qianye and can participate in his core war.
From beginning to end, Qianye was not easy. When he enters the new world again, he will have to compete head-on with Sousa to see how powerful this legendary lord of Mosal really is.
