Emperor: When will the Seventh Prince rebel? I will open the city gates to welcome him.

Hong Li's thoughts said:

"It's my own personality that caused me to be feared and respected by everyone in the future! After hearing what Hong Xuan said today, I realized that I have brought this upon myself!"

Hongli suddenly realized a problem.

Even if he were given military and political power, it would be useless.

Instead, it will bring him fatal disaster!

After Hong Li was abducted, Yunzhou rebel prime minister Li Haicheng saw that Hong Li was incapable of grasping the overall situation, let alone commanding the army.

That's why he kept him by his side and made him a puppet emperor.

Good fortune and misfortune depend on each other.

Hong Li's personality is only suitable for being a free and easy king, but where in this world can he be a free and easy king?

"Hongxuan is the military god of Dafeng! His reputation is well-deserved."

Hong Li came back to his senses and looked at Zhenbei King Hong Xuan.

"Yes! King of Zhenbei! This prince respects you as King of Zhenbei here! But this prince will soon return to Dafeng Kyoto to report to my father, and I will say goodbye to my seventh brother! Oh! No! King of Zhenbei is bidding farewell here!"

After the eldest prince Hong Li finished speaking, he turned around and was about to leave the hall, but before he had taken a few steps,

Then he heard Zhenbei Wang Hongxuan say behind him:

"If you return to the imperial capital now! Humph! You will surely die!"

Hong Li turned around and said:

"This prince was coerced! I don't really want to be the emperor of Yunzhou! It was the Yunzhou rebels who pushed me to the throne. If this prince doesn't agree, I will surely die!"

Hong Xuan said faintly:

"That's why you, Hongli, will definitely die if you return to Kyoto this time!"

"Of course! Hongli, if you don't believe me, then leave Ezhou City and return to Kyoto."

Hongli heard Hongxuan say this.

He found that he could not take a step forward, so he returned to the hall and looked at Zhenbei King Hongxuan.

"Father won't kill me! After all, I am his eldest son."

Hongxuan said:

"The whole court of civil and military officials, princes and ministers are talking nonsense! You, Hong Li, have committed too many sins to count. As the King of Southern Frontier, you lost Yunzhou, and you asked me, the King of Zhenbei who guards the Northern Frontier, to deal with your mess!"

"The Yunzhou rebels have gathered more than 400,000 soldiers, and under the name of you, Hongli Yunzhou Emperor, they have successively occupied Yunzhou and Xiangzhou. The Dafeng Kingdom is in such a mess. If you return to Kyoto now, I'm afraid you won't have enough heads to chop off even if you grow a hundred!"

Hong Li stared at Hong Xuan with a desire to survive and said:

"King of Zhenbei! How can this prince survive? I! I just want to live!"

Hongli just wants to live.

Hong Xuan said:

"It's easy! I will take you back to Kyoto! Of course, you have to swear to me before that!"

"From now on, Hongli, you must be loyal to me! Help me achieve my ideals."

Hong Li was stunned.

Suddenly he discovered that

Having just escaped from the clutches of Yunzhou rebel Li Haicheng, he has now fallen into the devil's lair of Zhenbei King Hongxuan.

"Hongxuan! From now on, this prince will be loyal to you? What do you mean?"

"I, Hongli, don't understand what this sentence means! You are my seventh brother, and I am your elder brother. Do I need to be loyal to you?"

Zhenbei King Hongxuan looked at Hongli:

"Hongli! Why are you so naive? You know, what should you do now? Instead of telling me that you are my brother!"

"My purpose in saving you is very simple. If you are loyal to me, I will make you the emperor of Dafeng Kingdom!"

Hong Li felt as if struck by lightning after hearing what Zhenbei King Hong Xuan said.

He doesn't want to suffer the feeling of holding the emperor hostage and ordering the princes around again.

"You! You! King Zhenbei, why don't you become the emperor yourself?"

The eldest prince Hongli, who had always wanted to be the emperor, felt as if he was thrown into a pit of fire when he heard himself being called the emperor.

"I don't want to be an emperor. I absolutely don't want to be an emperor! I just want to be a peaceful and carefree king!"

Being an emperor is a high-risk job, he has experienced it personally.

Only to hear the majestic voice of Zhenbei King Hongxuan sound again:

"You don't have to be so nervous. I didn't make you a downtrodden emperor in troubled times, or make you wander around in misery or fear!"

"This king will give you a peaceful and prosperous world where you can enjoy happiness!"

"You and I are brothers, how could I do such a stupid thing as holding the emperor hostage to control the princes!"

Hong Xuan's words made sense. Hong Li looked at him and said:

"I am the emperor of Dafeng State, what do you do?"

Hongxuan said without hesitation:

"Of course, I will continue to be the King of Zhenbei. Of course, after I destroy other countries, I will naturally incorporate the territories of other countries into my Great Feng Kingdom."

Hong Li looked at Hong Xuan and said:

"What if I, Hongli, am unfaithful to you after I become the emperor?"

Zhenbei Wang Hongxuan said lightly:

"Being loyal to the king is not something that can be discussed."

"What I want to do is to control all the countries surrounding Dafeng. With Dafeng as the center, all the surrounding countries will submit to Dafeng!"

"The kings and monarchs of all the surrounding countries must be the princes of our Great Feng Kingdom!"

Hong Li's thoughts were in disarray due to the shock. Even Miao Sina, who had not left yet, was stunned by the shock.

Miaosina said:

"King of Zhenbei! You don't want to be the emperor of one country! Do you want to be the ruler of all countries?"

Zhenbei Wang Hongxuan looked at Miao Sina and said with a smile:

"Haha! Miao Sina is right. I want to be the common ruler of all countries! I have even thought of a name! It will be called, The Great Emperor, the Common Ruler of the World, of course! It's called The Great Emperor for short!"

"I, King Hongxuan of Zhenbei, will not only be the emperor of Dafeng, but also the emperor of all conquered countries!"

What Zhenbei Wang Hongxuan wanted to do was,

He would unify the measurement, language, system, and culture of the countries he conquered, and the new emperor of the country must be the prince of Dafeng.

What Zhenbei King Hongxuan wants to be is not the emperor, but the emperor above the emperors of all countries in the world!

As for the fact that a country cannot have two emperors at the same time, it is because the two emperors are equally powerful, so there will be internal friction and competition between them.

But when the emperor emeritus became the common emperor of all countries,

Even the emperor of this country was appointed or dismissed by the emperor emeritus.

He wants to be the ruler of all the kingdoms in this world.

Of course, these are just Hongxuan’s preliminary ideas.

So after seeing Hongli's character, Hongxuan would definitely push him to the throne.

Hongxuan is thinking!

If he became the emperor of Dafeng Kingdom, how much significance would it have?

In fact, it doesn't make much sense! If he wants to be the emperor, with his current military strength and advanced weapons, he can directly become the emperor.

But what happens after becoming emperor?

All government affairs and all matters need to be decided by the emperor. The emperor will be an important component in balancing all ministers and all the powerful dignitaries. The emperor cannot have freedom, let alone do whatever he wants.

But the emperor emeritus is different.

This is a problem of power structure, and Hongxuan certainly understands it.

Therefore, as the emperor, he only needed to control the military power, and the complicated political affairs were left to him to handle.

This was Hongxuan's idea. He didn't intend to become the emperor right away. Growth requires a process.

And more importantly,

After becoming an emperor, he could no longer go on expeditions everywhere. The best identity for conquering all directions was the identity of King Zhenbei.

All of these are operational ideas.

Hongli recovered from his shock and realized that his ambitions were like those of a sparrow and an eagle. They were incomparable.

Knowing Hongxuan's ambition, Hongli said sincerely

"This prince is willing to be your subordinate, King Zhenbei!"
