Chapter 126 Emperor Qian is about to die
After learning from Li Yuan about the destruction of Dayue, Emperor Anyue remained silent for a long time.
"Xuan'er, I couldn't hold on after all."
After a long time, Emperor Anyue sighed.
When there was a disagreement on the migration, he had thought about severely punishing his second son.
But in the end he softened his heart a little, and did not want to leave his people without anyone to lead them.
However, Ji Xuan ultimately failed to live up to his expectations and failed to protect the scarred Dayue Kingdom.
"Have those countries that annexed Dayue massacred the people of Dayue?"
Emperor Anyue gazed into the distance outside the palace, not knowing what he was thinking.
Li Yuan hesitated slightly:
"A lot of people must have died, but they weren't wiped out."
Emperor Anyue closed his eyes and nodded.
"When Anyue prospers, I will go back and take a look."
Li Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly.
The look from Emperor Anyue was likely to lead to the gathering of soldiers and horses and the start of a bloody storm.
However, Li Yuan did not interfere with any decision of Emperor Anyue.
"Do you have any idea about Xuguo?"
Li Yuan sat in a side hall of the palace, drinking tea and chatting with Emperor Anyue.
Emperor Anyue took a sip, his manners were elegant and he exuded a noble aura.
"I will not be at peace until the Xu Kingdom is destroyed."
"Although war is ruthless and both sides suffer losses, I have to remember the account of 140,000 dead souls on behalf of the soldiers."
Li Yuan nodded slightly, but said nothing.
Emperor Anyue is a benevolent and wise emperor who cares about the people and his subjects. He will not tolerate this humiliation unless the Xu Kingdom is destroyed.
Moreover, it is also for the long-term peace of Bao Yue.
After all, no one would feel at ease with a predatory country like Xu around.
"What does Qianguo say?" Li Yuan asked after thinking for a while.
Emperor Anyue stroked the porcelain jade teacup.
"Emperor Qian is dying."
Li Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly.
"What's going on?"
Emperor Anyue took out a map from the table behind him without haste.
He pointed to the direction of the capital of Qian State.
"Emperor Qian has regained power, but the rebellious Prime Minister Wang has also left behind some ruthless tricks."
Li Yuan was a little curious.
Emperor Anyue continued:
"When the prime minister knew the situation was not good, he ordered someone to secretly poison the dragon throne."
"In order to ensure that Emperor Qian would not become suspicious, this sinister prime minister remained sitting on the dragon throne until Emperor Qian's army broke into the palace."
"At that time, the army of Xu Kingdom was approaching, and Emperor Qian sat on the throne again, holding the imperial power and issuing orders to all directions. As a result..."
Emperor Anyue stopped there, and Li Yuan understood why he said that Emperor Qian was going to die.
"The Qian Kingdom tried every possible means, but they could only protect Emperor Qian's life for five years."
Emperor Anyue looked at the map with a strange expression.
"Emperor Qian met with me not long ago."
Li Yuan nodded and listened quietly.
"He wants me to seize the Qian Kingdom."
The more Emperor Anyue spoke, the stranger his expression became.
Li Yuan was shocked and speechless.
Emperor Anyue said: "Emperor Qian saw the rot in Qian State. Although he is the emperor of Qian State, he is in the midst of corruption and cannot cure it."
"He wanted to take away the unhealthy trends of Qian Country when he died."
"Even if Qian Kingdom will cease to exist, his people will continue to live."
"Because he knows me and knows that I will not be cruel to innocent people."
Li Yuan also looked at the map and sighed slightly.
"I thought he was a moderate emperor."
Emperor Anyue also sighed slightly.
"Although Emperor Qian has no great ambitions, he has also worked hard to govern the country."
"However, even if he foresaw the outcome, he could not change the overall situation."
"Perhaps this is Emperor Qian's last ditch effort, knowing that his fate is imminent."
The teacup is warm and filled with a wisp of mist.
The two sat in a side hall, chatting around a map, but what they were talking about was An Yue's future.
"Then what do you think?"
Li Yuan asked.
There was a gleam of light in Emperor Anyue's eyes.
"Not to mention that Emperor Qian begged him, even if he wasn't poisoned..."
"I will conquer the land of Qian!"
At this moment, Emperor Anyue exuded a strong sense of dominance.
"The land of Qian Kingdom is too important. If Anyue wants to grow stronger, she must not allow others to restrict her!"
"But, since Emperor Qian has asked me to do so, I can take over the Qian Kingdom and avoid war!"
In front of Li Yuan, Emperor Anyue never called himself "I".
Li Yuan nodded:
"Since you already have a plan, I won't ask any more questions."
The two talked about other things again.
While the god and the emperor of Anyue were having a long conversation, the country of Qian was already in chaos.
In the magnificent and golden imperial palace of Qian Kingdom, in the grand and majestic hall.
Emperor Qian sat on the brand new dragon throne, his gaze overwhelming and his majesty overwhelming.
Wherever Emperor Qian's eyes went, all the ministers lowered their heads.
Because outside the hall, there were countless soldiers standing, swords drawn, full of murderous intent.
Although Emperor Qian had great power over the court, his face was pale and gaunt, with sunken eyes.
Anyone with eyes could see that Emperor Qian was at the end of his strength.
"I want to send the royal family's heirs to Anyue to study. Who has any objections?"
Emperor Qian's words were heavy and filled with a sense of decadence.
During this period, he was no longer as gentle as before and became particularly domineering and fierce.
Many ministers of the Qian Kingdom looked at the soldiers outside the hall, then looked into the blood-stained hall, and immediately closed their lips, not daring to say anything.
Anyone who dared to speak out against him has been chopped into two, and his body is now lying in the middle of the hall.
Emperor Qian looked around:
"Since you have no objection, then...all the royal family's descendants will go to Anyue to study from now on!"
"When to come back depends on the emperor's order!"
None of the ministers dared to say anything, but many young people of royal blood looked bitter.
There was a bloated prince who couldn't help but complain.
"Father, why did you send me and others to Anyue's shabby place to suffer?"
"Your son must never understand!"
Emperor Qian looked over, his eyes flickered for a moment, then became indifferent.
"You don't understand, do you?"
The prince nodded repeatedly:
"Father, I really don't understand!"
Many royal children were also in the hall. Seeing someone taking the lead, they knelt down one after another and advised Emperor Qian.
Emperor Qian looked around, was silent for a moment, and slowly shook his head.
"If you don't understand what I mean, then that is fate."
"If you don't want to, then stay."
The prince was overjoyed. Although he did not understand what Emperor Qian said, he immediately kowtowed to thank him.
Emperor Qian glanced at his children and descendants:
"Who else doesn't want to go?"
Many princes and princesses requested to stay in Qian Kingdom and refused to suffer in the desert of Anyue.
They had never been to Anyue in person, so of course they didn't know that Anyue is now beautiful, but the climate is still a little hot.
But according to rumors, it is a barren land.
Most of the royal descendants were unwilling to go.
Emperor Qian's eyes trembled, and he was obviously angry.
But he, who had been so determined just now, suddenly relaxed after his chest twitched violently a few times and he took several deep breaths.
"If you don't want to go, don't go."
Emperor Qian slowly closed his eyes and spoke calmly.
After hearing this, the descendants became even happier, and said one after another that they did not want to leave Qian Country and suffer in the wild.
Only a few well-behaved, obedient and thoughtful princes and princesses seemed to have guessed something.
They looked towards Emperor Qian, tears in their eyes, and kowtowed, saying that they were willing to go to Anyue to "study".
Many ministers were also somewhat confused.
It was Emperor Qian who was determined to send the royal heirs to Anyue; it was also Emperor Qian who suddenly gave in at this critical moment of giving the order.
Why has His Majesty become more and more strange after being poisoned?
Emperor Qian had a dignified expression and immediately ordered people to send away those princes and princesses who were willing to go to Anyue.
There was a lot of discussion in the court, and many ministers noticed that Emperor Qian looked strange.
Emperor Qian ignored the uneasiness of his ministers. He just looked at the chaotic court; he also looked at the royal descendants who were complacent because they could stay.
I couldn't help but murmur.
"A bunch of fools seeking their own destruction..."
"Ugh......"
"Don't blame me, this is your fate."
