Sweeping both worlds: Starting from idealistic martial arts

Chapter 119 Several Ways to Become an Emperor
At the scene, the atmosphere in the entire Golden Palace became solemn because of the marshal's words.

It was not because of any other reason. It was because although this old commander was only at the third level and his personal bravery was not outstanding, he had 100,000 imperial guards under his command.

These 100,000 imperial guards follow the inheritance of military formations and fighting, and are matched with several second-turn warriors and a dozen first-turn warriors. If they charge head-on on the battlefield, even a fourth-turn warrior will have to avoid their sharp edge.

A hundred years ago, it was with the help of millions of strong troops that the late emperor felt that he could conquer the world. He had to stabilize the country before he could conquer the outside world, which led to the tragedy of "Horse trampling on the river and lake".

Although the number has shrunk by more than 90% now, the highest level present at the moment is only the third level, and anyone who sees it will shrink their neck.

"Hey, Marshal Yang, don't be so excited."

Prince Qing coughed lightly to ease the awkward atmosphere in the palace: "This prince has asked Taixuanmen for instructions, but even the national teacher cannot find out the real culprit, so while finding the real culprit, we must first settle the throne and calm people's hearts."

"If we can't even find the real culprit, who knows whether the designated crown prince will be in line with the thief's intentions." Facing the prince, old Marshal Yang finally softened his tone and was not so aggressive.

"It's very simple. I have consulted the leaders of all major sects, and after serious discussion, we have come up with a method that no one can find fault with." As Prince Qing spoke, he couldn't help but frowned.

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present couldn't help but hold their breath. As for the outcome of those fourth-turn experts, it seemed that they had to consider it seriously.

"According to the military restriction order, excluding the few who are not suitable for the age, there are a total of seven people who meet the requirements, and they are all the legitimate daughters of the emperor."

Prince Qing paused halfway through his speech and said, "So, those rank 4 masters decided to... draw lots to choose His Majesty."

Draw lots?

The atmosphere in the venue was silent at first, and then a huge noise broke out.

"What the hell did you say!" Marshal Yang shouted. If it weren't for the other party's identity as a prince, he would have punched the person who was speaking to death.

"How ridiculous! It's totally disgraceful! How can one be so careless in declaring oneself emperor?"

"I am so angry. I am so angry. Is this something you can just joke about?"

Except for the marshal, all the civil and military officials in the court were filled with indignation.

This is too bullying. Choosing the emperor depends on drawing lots. This is the conclusion reached by those who have passed the fourth level. They are indeed gangsters.

If they were able to defeat them, they would probably have carried out the "Ride into the World" strategy again.

Choosing an emperor by drawing lots is simply a child's play and the greatest insult to the dynasty!
Being stared at by the audience, Prince Qing said awkwardly: "Although it is indeed a joke, those fourth-level masters also gave relatively reasonable explanations."

"Since we don't know who the murderer is, his purpose must be to support one of the seven to ascend the throne. If so, he would directly choose one of them as the emperor in the most hasty way. Even the murderer would never expect it."

There is another saying that Prince Qing is reluctant to say.

That is, the election of the emperor is actually not very important to the stability of the country.

The court officials present looked young, but in fact they had all practiced martial arts. Most of them were centenarians, with a lifespan of 200 to 300 years.

At least a dozen of them had the glorious record of outlasting three mortal emperors.

But people have lived for a long time and have seen all kinds of scenes.

Watching himself live year after year, the emperor, as the supreme ruler, is like leeks, replaced every few decades. The respect for imperial power has been eroded bit by bit by time.

They say some extremely disrespectful words, and sometimes they even have the thought that being the emperor is not as good as themselves.

In the hands of this group of long-lived court officials, as long as the emperor was not a madman, the country could be governed relatively peacefully.

Moreover, in today's Dayan where various major forces are in power and the imperial power is infinitely weakened, does it really matter who is chosen as long as they are of royal blood?
"No, no, how can His Majesty ascend the throne so hastily? He should be popularly supported. I recommend Princess Jiang Li. She has the longest experience and the most experience among all the princesses. She will definitely lead Dayan to prosperity."

A court official jumped out, but was met with contemptuous looks from the crowd. Because the person who spoke was the head of the Jiang family, this move clearly revealed his intentions.

Moreover, the eldest princess had no chance of inheriting the throne. The deaths of the emperor and the prince were so strange, and the Jiang family was the biggest suspect.

Following this opening, the ministers then began to speak their own words, righteously recommending their own candidates for their own interests.

Since it was a matter of interest, the entire hall immediately became noisy.

A large number of them rose to power by relying on the merits of following the emperor, and of course they were aware of the importance of the succession of the throne.

It doesn’t matter to them who the emperor is, but the power in the emperor’s hands is important to them.

At this moment, this group of warriors started quarreling in the hall, and it was like a continuous rushing river.

The sound caused the golden roof to shake continuously.

But the more you argue, the less results you'll get.

The more reasonable the statement is, the more it seems like the real murderer who murdered the late emperor.

The courtier, who was fully aware of his own innocence, became increasingly angry during the verbal battle, thinking that he, a loyal minister, could lose, but BYD, the real murderer who plotted to murder the emperor, would never win!
During the ongoing debate, the ideas that had just been thrown out of their minds gradually emerged in the minds of these court officials.

Could it be that... we really have to draw lots?
……

Without mentioning the topic in the Golden Palace, inside the sedan, Ye Qingshi looked at Fang Can, who was wielding a broadsword, curiously and asked, "Ah Can, what are you doing?"

"I'm considering whether I can melt this knife." Fang Can said while playing with the broadsword.

"I'm thinking about how to turn it into a gun or a stick. The broadsword doesn't quite fit my aesthetic. It's too bulky."

According to Li Xiangyang, a warrior's heritage will not change easily as long as his will remains intact.

Even if mountains and rivers shift and dynasties change, the will of warriors always runs through ancient and modern times.

Therefore, even if this sacrificial vessel is melted and cast, its function will not change. In this case, it is better to melt it and recast it.

The only question now is what the melting point of this broadsword is.

Don't make it like Adelman alloy, because once it is formed it is difficult to change.

Just as Fang Can was fiddling with the broadsword in his hand, there was a knock on the door.

"Open the door." Fang Can raised his eyes and said, and several maids serving beside him naturally stepped forward to open the door.

"My lord, we have arrived at Cangren City. Do you want to get out of the sedan chair and walk around?" Ye Yonglie asked respectfully.

"Okay, I'm just bored of staying in the sedan." Fang Can readily agreed, turned his head and looked at Ye Qingshi and said with a smile: "My Miss Ye, do you want to go out for a walk with me?"

Being asked this question suddenly under her father's gaze, the girl's ears turned red.

"Well, thank you for your help." The girl nodded slightly in a pretentious manner, and stretched out her hand to be pulled up by Fang Can. She said to Ye Yonglie obediently, "Then Daddy, Fang Can and I will leave first."

"Remember to be safe and don't lead the Lord God astray." Ye Yonglie had no objection.

Since the Jade Cabbage God is willing to lower its standards to promote its own little cabbage, we can only support it.
