Chapter 1061: The Burial Area Army Conquers the Capital
A smile slowly appeared on He Jingzhong's face: "Lin Changxing, please sit down!"
"Elder He, please!" Lin Su smiled and gently extended his hand.
The two of them sat down as host and guest.
Things are finally getting back on track after meeting each other.
It was only because Lin Su said in person that he would not interfere in the change of dynasties, he just came to watch the ceremony.
As long as it is based on this starting point, He Jingzhong has no reason to be hostile to him.
At the city gate, the new emperor returned on foot.
Crossing Xuanwu Avenue, people all around knelt on the ground.
Walking through Suzaku Avenue, scholars on both sides bowed.
Stepping onto White Tiger Avenue, the stern and murderous Royal Guards formed a solid shield.
Stepping onto Qinglong Avenue, the Confucian Temple is in front of you. Almost all the first- and second-rank court officials gathered here to welcome the new emperor.
The new emperor looked around and felt extremely happy.
Zhuge Qingfeng was right after all, wealth and honor are achieved through risk!
This request is the most dangerous one in the world.
However, this request also permanently determined the overall situation.
If it were in the past, he still needed to worry about the stability of the court officials. Three days ago, the Military Saint appeared and rebuilt the Military Saint's Holy Family. The court officials that he had difficulty controlling in the court all returned to the Holy Family. His current court official system is an unprecedentedly weak system, and he can fully control it.
The imperial court of the burial place was cleaner than ever before.
The road under his feet at Dongfang Pavilion was smoother than ever before.
If there is still a little bit of concern, it is probably the post-war dividends of these participating alien races.
These alien races are more ruthless than each other, it's really hard to deal with them...
Let’s talk about these things later, let’s finish the last process first…
He got off the sedan chair and started his first show as an emperor under the watchful eyes of the people of the city.
As he stepped towards the golden circle of the Confucian Temple, the Grand Secretary of Wenyuan Pavilion next to him extended his hand and handed him three incense sticks.
These are three holy incense sticks...
In the Confucian Temple, He Jingzhong slowly put down his teacup: "Lin Changxing, please drink tea and watch the ceremony here. I..."
Suddenly, his voice stopped...
Lin Su suddenly raised his head and stared at the horizon...
With a loud bang, the sky shook violently. Where the white clouds were floating, a huge and boundless white skeleton seemed to come from the sky. The skeleton slowly leaned over, and its thousand-foot-tall body looked like a huge mountain about to collapse, giving people in the city a boundless oppression.
Everyone in the city was startled at the same time, and their eyes suddenly raised and stared towards the northwest.
Even the music behind the new emperor suddenly went off track...
The new emperor suddenly looked up!
A golden-armored general behind the new emperor shouted, "Who are you?"
The four words were like a sword, turning into a hundred-mile torrent shooting towards the northwest with earth-shaking momentum.
However, the skeleton opened its huge mouth, and the giant sword that was carrying floating clouds and boundless momentum was swallowed into his mouth and disappeared into nothingness!
At the same time, it seemed as if a giant from outer space took a step, accompanied by a dull sound of footsteps, and another skeleton appeared beside the skeleton.
There was another dull sound of footsteps, and a skeleton appeared in the east.
Then there was another dull sound of footsteps, and a skeleton appeared in the north.
The dull footsteps followed one after another, and in the blink of an eye, nine white skeletons appeared in the four corners of the capital.
Nine skeletons, all of them were thousands of feet long.
The nine skeletons gathered together, and the capital city, which was a hundred miles away, seemed to be in their hands.
The commander of the Forbidden Palace was horrified: "War spirit in the burial area! Burial King..."
Before the voice fell, a golden throne descended from the sky and appeared far above the capital.
On the throne, the distinctive fat body of the King of Burials leaned forward slightly, looking down at Xiongzhou. Behind him was the eternal blue sky without a trace of floating clouds. His expression was extremely majestic. He wore a golden crown on his head and gorgeous clothes. This was a completely different image from the burial area in the past.
Today he is dressed up!
"King Zang!" The new emperor raised his head slowly. "I have specially sent an envoy to the burial area to invite King Zang to come to the capital to watch my ascension ceremony. King Zang is here today, are you here to watch the ceremony at my invitation?"
Everyone could see that this was not the right way to watch a ceremony, but the new emperor was quite shrewd and gave King Zang this step.
Unfortunately, King Zang refused to take this step.
The Zang King said coldly: "I came here today only to eliminate the traitors for the country!"
All the court officials were shocked at the same time. To eliminate the traitor for the country?
Except who?
Could it be me?
If others wanted to get rid of them, that would be sheer nonsense, but the Burial King himself is a ghost...
The strength of the burial area is not inferior to that of the dynasty.
The king's actions were extremely unscrupulous.
When the previous emperor was in power, he had killed the Seventh Prince in front of the previous emperor, and issued an annihilation order to all the families that had ties with the demons. Even though the previous emperor was so tough, he couldn't save his son, and even had to cooperate with the annihilation order of the Burial King, picking out some people from those families and punishing them in response to the Burial King's concern. Although there were only a few people picked out, it was just a symbolic meaning, but this symbolic meaning also reflected that the Burial King was not easy to mess with...
The new emperor said: "It is a great honor to eliminate traitors for the country, but it is not appropriate at this time. If you are interested in burying the king, please wait. After I pay my respects to you in the temple, I will meet you in the Golden Palace!"
Although under the strong oppression of King Zang, the new emperor was calm and composed, neither humble nor arrogant, and initially displayed the demeanor of a great emperor.
King Zang shook his head: "The traitor I want to get rid of is a great traitor who killed the king and seized the throne. How can I allow a traitor like you to ascend the throne smoothly?"
His voice covered the whole city...
Everyone was shocked at the same time...
Kill the king and seize the throne?
omg...
What's going on here?
The new emperor's face suddenly darkened: "How outrageous!"
As he shouted, the imperial seal in his palm suddenly lit up, and the boundless imperial holy light made him look extremely sacred and solemn.
But the Zang King in the air shouted: "Dongfang Pavilion, you dare to collude with alien races and demons, kill the king to seize the throne, kill your brothers, and try to hand over the land of Zangzhou to the demons. You are not worthy of ruling Zangzhou! For four hundred years, your Dongfang family has been doing evil things, deeply connected with the demons and alien races, and causing chaos in the border city. You are not worthy of ruling Zangzhou at all! For the great cause of the human race, my Jun family will return to Zangzhou and pick up the inheritance of the previous emperor to restore the land of Zangzhou!"
"King Zang, the era of your Jun family has passed four hundred years ago! Today's Zangzhou belongs to my Dongfang family!"
King Zang said coldly: "I will give you four hundred years to govern the mountains and rivers of Zangzhou. If your Dongfang clan can govern it, my family will be willing to settle for a corner of the Zang area. However, Zangzhou under your Dongfang clan's governance has become a demonic area on earth. How can we allow you, the threat to the human race, to be pinned to Zangzhou and become the greatest disaster for the human race? Therefore, today, the battle between this king and you is a battle for the fate of the human race!"
As soon as these words came out, a subtle change occurred in the hearts of the people in the city...
Today is the coronation ceremony. Theoretically, anyone who causes trouble would not be doing the right thing, at least not in the eyes of hundreds of millions of people in Zangzhou.
However, a few words from the King of Burial changed this perception.
He first dropped the explosive news that the new emperor had murdered the emperor and seized the throne, causing the mystery of the previous emperor's death to surface again.
The death of the late emperor was indeed full of doubts. In one day, the late emperor and four princes were killed by foreign forces at the same time. Why? The simplest inference is: let's see who will benefit from this mystery.
The person who benefited was obviously the new emperor.
After the death of the previous emperor, the country cannot be without a ruler for a day, and there must be an heir.
All the princes of the previous emperor are gone, leaving only one, the new emperor. Naturally, this new emperor is worthy of suspicion.
It's just that no one dared to say it before.
Now the King of Burial has made it clear.
Now the topic has gone a step further, pointing directly to the collusion between the new emperor and the demons and alien races.
This is actually what everyone has always suspected. Last time, Lin Su used the Taoist method to interrogate the Seventh Prince at the Zanghua Pavilion and cooperated with King Zang. The seeds of the royal family's connection with the demons and alien races had already taken root in the hearts of the people at that time, and no one dared to mention it openly.
If it were just these, King Zang would still be at a disadvantage, because suspicion is just suspicion, and King Zang could hardly shake the deeply rooted imperial laws.
However, the two of them changed the topic and switched to the issue of who between the Dongfang family and the Jun family was more suitable to be the ruler of Zangzhou.
This is a delicate topic.
Jun family was the imperial family name before Dongfang family.
The Jun family has ruled this world longer than the Dongfang family.
Now it seems that it is no longer a question of a new emperor taking office and another outsider disrupting the situation, but a question of who is more legitimate in the dynasty. Few people realize that when the topic enters this realm, the King of Zang has already won. Why? Because in the minds of the people, he is competing with the emperor for the first time - an outsider who is obviously in the role of a disruptor is at the opposite end of the topic with the emperor in the blink of an eye, and it is not abrupt at all, which is a great victory in itself...
In the Burial Flower Pavilion, Zhuge Qingfeng dropped the teacup in his hand heavily: "Idiot!"
Yes, he was scolding Dongfang Pavilion.
Others might not be able to see the intention behind King Zang’s words, but how could he not see it?
The most special thing about King Zang's identity is that he is a descendant of the Jun family. His ancestors were once the emperors of this world, and the Dongfang family took the throne from the Jun family.
These things must not be mentioned in front of you.
If you, Dongfang Ge, had a little bit of brains, you should have cut off all the legitimate rights and interests of King Zang in seizing the throne, and you should not have extended the topic in public. After all, Dongfang Ge is still a little naive. Aren't you a fool to lead the topic back to four hundred years ago?
Du Bing, who was standing next to him, had a gloomy expression on his face. “Did you see that the sudden appearance of the Burial King was most likely related to Lin Su?”
Zhuge Qingfeng's whole body trembled, and his eyes slowly raised: "We have been guessing the angle of his attack, and now the answer is out. This is the angle of his attack! Directly subverting the imperial power!"
Du Bing said, "That's right! You also said that the Temple's legal principles blocked all his possibilities, but the legal principles also blocked the Temple. If the Burial King took action to overthrow the imperial power, the Temple would have no reason to stop him."
Zhuge Qingfeng exhaled softly: "What a great Lin Su, he can solve any problem. Under such circumstances, he actually has an angle to attack. King Zang... How could I have overlooked this variable?"
He actually did not ignore the King of Burial.
He had already prepared several plans for the burial area, but all of them were based on the assumption that Dongfang Ge would successfully succeed to the throne.
But now...
Lin Su placed the piece on the chessboard first, and directly activated the key piece, King Zang, at the coronation ceremony of the Dongfang Pavilion.
If this is a game, Lin Su has already taken the initiative.
Du Bing asked, "What should we do now? If a fight really breaks out, will it be convenient for us to mobilize our forces? Will it give Lin Su an excuse to seduce the other races to join the war?"
"The excuse... the excuse is not important anymore. What is important is whether this force is enough to stop the Zang King's God-Slaying Sword and the nine war spirits..."
"If we can't stop them, do we have to retreat?" Du Bing was already getting restless.
She is a wise woman. As Zhuge Qingfeng wished, she has gathered a large number of remnants of the Wenxin Pavilion for Zhuge Qingfeng, and her strength is unprecedentedly strong. Zhuge Qingfeng did not disappoint her and connected with various alien races to form an incomparable huge power combination.
Their power, placed in the mortal world, can easily change the destiny of a country and overturn billions of miles of mountains and rivers. However, the strength of their opponent still makes them tremble with fear, because this opponent has never been a secular force, but Lin Su, a quasi-saint of the Heavenly Dao who even the Three Heavens look at with awe.
Everything seems calm in the Confucian Temple.
However, as soon as the Burial King appeared, a gust of wind quietly formed, arising from He Jingzhong's brows and the coffee table in front of him...
He Jingzhong turned his gaze to Lin Su: "Lin Changxing, have you ever thought of this scene?"
Lin Su gently lifted up the teacup: "Where is Elder He? Have you ever thought about it?"
He Jingzhong said calmly: "How could I have thought that there would be such a subversive thing? But I still have to remind Lin Changxing that controlling a hidden force and subverting the secular imperial power is also clearly recorded in the Temple Code as 'interfering with the secular imperial power'!"
Lin Su nodded: "Elder He has mentioned the Temple Code three times today, and has repeatedly reminded me not to interfere with the succession of secular imperial power. I would also like to remind Elder He not to interfere in the next succession of imperial power."
He Jingzhong suddenly looked up and stared at Lin Su.
Lin Su also looked up and looked at He Jingzhong quietly.
At this moment, He Jingzhong's mind was completely clear...
He finally understood all of Lin Su's chess games.
He had reminded Lin Su not to interfere with the imperial power, and Lin Su accepted it completely. Now, this reminder fell on his own shoulders, and he had no reason not to accept it.
As early as when he first gave the hint, Lin Su already knew that the King of Burial would appear.
He hit Lin Su on the forehead with a hammer, locking Lin Su's hands and feet. At the same time, Lin Su also completely locked him, the night watchman.
Next, he couldn't interfere.
The court cannot interfere.
None of the three heavens of the Temple can interfere.
This is the fundamental reason why Lin Su came to the Confucian Temple today. He is here to take charge of the cultural affairs for the King of Burial!
He cleared away all the variables from the temple for the King of Burial!
Therefore, it was he who arranged for the King of Zang to come and break the impasse today!
You, Lin Su, are so bold as to interfere with the imperial power so blatantly and break the rules of the temple so blatantly!
However, all of this is not on the table.
Whether it was the Burial Flower Pavilion or the Confucian Temple, the game was just out of sight. The new emperor in front of the Confucian Temple had a face as livid as water, and suddenly raised the imperial seal in his hand: "The laws of the temple are above, and the imperial seal is heaven! Those who dare to resist the imperial seal are traitors and will be executed!"
With a loud bang, the Royal Guards suddenly leaped into the air, and the huge flags in their hands hit the King of Burial above the sky.
This attack combined the strength of the entire Royal Guard.
This attack also incorporates the power of the imperial seal.
At the same time, countless golden grids appeared in the air, and the great formation to protect the capital was activated simultaneously.
Within the great formation, there is the might of the Emperor's seal and the combined strength of a hundred thousand strong Imperial Guards.
Transformed into one strike!
The new emperor is unwilling to fight endlessly, so the first attack will be all-out...
The Burial King in the sky laughed: "The one who possesses the imperial seal is the orthodox one? Very good, my king. No, I will take your imperial seal!"
As soon as the voice fell, the golden throne he was sitting on suddenly shook, and a long sword flew through the air.
The long sword is in the air...
The two big characters turned into a rolling torrent: Kill the God!
"God-killing Sword!" Someone below shouted...
With a loud bang, the God-Slaying Sword expanded thousands of times and turned into a terrifying giant sword...
As it expanded, the sky-wide array patterns shattered, and the palace array platform collapsed with a loud bang...
As the sword rose, the golden light of the imperial seal swayed suddenly...
As soon as the sword fell, the flag of the Royal Guards turned into nothingness!
The sword struck straight down, and a dragon roar came from the golden light of the imperial seal...
"Escort!"
Along with a wild roar from the commander-in-chief of the Imperial Guards, countless people in the capital city flew into the air and pointed directly at the King of Burial in the sky.
In the blink of an eye, the Zang King's God-Slaying Sword was engulfed by the wave, and his golden throne was also driven far into the deep space by the wave...
The Burial King's face darkened: "Burial District Legion, attack!"
Behind him, there suddenly appeared a dense mass that covered the entire sky.
The nine great war spirits all looked up to the sky and roared, and tens of thousands of figures in the sky were thrown into chaos.
The nine war spirits marched forward in unison, raising their swords...
boom!
The earth is shaking!
"Kill! Kill! Kill!" After three orders from the new emperor Dongfangge, tens of thousands of masters flew up again.
The warships of the Imperial Guards broke through the air and went straight into the sky. An extremely fierce battle began. The sky was raining blood and the Xiongzhou City was swaying in the bloody wind and rain.
In the Confucian Temple, holy light permeates and blood rain does not stain it.
Inside the Confucian Temple, He Jingzhong's expression was uncertain.
Outside the Confucian Temple, countless students knelt down and shouted in unison: "The rebellion of the King of Zang has brought disaster to the capital of the country. Please help us to rectify the world."
"To seize the throne directly by force will cause great suffering to the people. This is not tolerated by the Holy Way. I beg you to consider the people of the world and the Holy Way and protect our orthodoxy!"
This is the voice of the literary team.
Every time a large-scale riot occurs, the team of literati will do this. Although under normal circumstances, the night watchmen will not take action, there are occasional exceptions. For example, if the killing is excessive, the night watchmen will stand up and restrain both sides. Now, the killing has undoubtedly reached its peak, so outside the Confucian Temple, almost all the top Confucian scholars in the city have gathered.
Even the Grand Secretary of Wenyuan Pavilion was among them.
He Jingzhong listened to the pleading outside the Confucian Temple, and his face twitched: "Lin Changxing, have you heard the pleading outside?"
"Of course I heard it!"
"What do you want?"
Lin Su said: "I can only sigh. Thinking back to the past, when the Great Cang Nation faced the Black Bone Disaster twice, the voices of pleas to the Confucian Temple were hundreds and thousands of times more sorrowful than this plea. However, the Holy Temple still refused with a single word, saying that it was a matter of the human world. How much more so today?"
He Jingzhong said: "I would like to ask, is this scene today related to Lin Changxing?"
"You are being presumptuous, really presumptuous..." Lin Su said, "I hope you are just asking a presumptuous question, not making a direct accusation."
"What will happen if we accuse him directly?" He Jingzhong narrowed his eyes slowly.
"If you accuse me directly, I might go to the Dharma Capital and ask the Dharma Sage how he trains his disciples."
He Jingzhong's pupils contracted and locked onto Lin Su.
Go to the Dharma Capital and ask the Dharma Saint!
These words were so bold and presumptuous that anyone in the world who dared to say them would be seeking death, but Lin Su was an exception.
Because it is very convenient for him to go to the third heaven.
Because it was convenient for him to meet the saint.
Moreover, he had been to a capital once in the early days, and that was Ledu. Once there, the Saint of Music was gone!
From then on, whenever Lin Su went to a certain city, he could always stimulate everyone's most sensitive nerves.
He Jingzhong was shocked. He was a little worried that he might have said something wrong and might really bring trouble to the Sage of Law. If Lin Su went to the Capital of Law because of him, whether Lin Su deserved death or not was another matter, but he himself, a disciple of the Palace of Law, probably deserved to die.
Lin Su lifted the teacup, raised it slightly towards him, and took a sip: "This tea is good. Is it the 'Dinggui Tea' that you brewed yourself?"
"Yes! The word 'fixed rules' seems to have a different flavor when it comes out of Lin Changxing's mouth."
Lin Su said: "It's probably because I suddenly thought of something interesting. The Fa Dao School is good at setting rules for others. I have always wanted to know if there is anyone who can set rules for the Fa Dao School as well?"
He Jingzhong's face was as gloomy as water and he didn't dare to respond.
He felt that this was an exciting lead, and this topic really couldn't be expanded...
The battle outside was intense from the beginning, but any intense battle can never last...
The streets were flooded with blood!
There was a lot of noise in the sky!
Outside the Confucian Temple, there were cries everywhere!
Finally, with a terrifying roar from King Zang, the imperial seal in the new emperor's hand was knocked away by the Sword of God-Slaying and fell into the hands of King Zang.
The imperial seal in the hands of the King of Zang suddenly shone brightly, and the entire capital city was covered by the golden light of the imperial seal.
His body rose out of thin air and went straight to the top of the golden palace. Beside him, there was a man lying at his feet, and it was unknown whether he was dead or alive. It was really the new emperor wearing imperial robes...
"I am already the emperor of Zangzhou!" The Zang King shouted in a deep voice: "All soldiers, put down your swords and guns now. The past will not be punished. Those who resist stubbornly will be treated as treason!"
The sound was like thunder, shaking the whole city.
The two sides fighting fiercely below stopped almost at the same time. The soldiers looked at each other, their swords and guns flickering...
Under the Confucian Temple, a group of ministers flew up at the same time, led by the prime minister.
The prime minister and his ministers landed in front of the Golden Palace. He looked up at the Zang King, his eyes bloodshot. "Jun Wuji! You are the king appointed by the previous emperor, not the legitimate emperor. What you did today is pure rebellion. It is a pipe dream to expect the ministers to submit to you!"
"That's right! Since ancient times, imperial power has had its own laws. How can you take it by yourself?" The Grand Secretary of Wenyuan Pavilion next to him also echoed.
"The traitors want to disrupt my Zangzhou. How can I tolerate them?" The third one was the Grand Secretary of the Imperial Academy.
"Jun Wuji, if you have the guts, kill all the ministers in the palace. Otherwise, your evil deeds of rebelling against the imperial laws and usurping the throne will be recorded by the historians..."
For a moment, all the ministers were excited.
The hearts of the people in the city are once again hanging high...
