The video takes us to ancient times; Li Er transforms into the Tongtian Emperor of Shu Han.

"Oh? If that's the case, then this challenge is quite interesting."

Ying Zheng smiled.

If Zhao Gao were incompetent, he wouldn't have been able to rise to the position of Chief of the Imperial Carriage Office under Zhao Gao's command.

Zhao Gao, who clearly knew who the ultimate winner would be, instead sided with the court of Emperor Gengshi, which was about to perish.

Not only Ying Zheng, but many people also had expectations in their eyes.

They were curious whether Zhao Gao had lost his mind or actually had some good idea.

"Although we know that someone like Zhao Gao can't possibly stop Emperor Guangwu's unification of the country, as long as he can make this challenge more exciting and let us see more of Liu Xiu's abilities, he will have already succeeded."

Liu Xiu: “…”

"Although I don't know what his plans are, if I had a choice, I would rather not face such a madman."

The family knows their own affairs.

At this critical juncture, his elder brother Liu Yan had just died, he had been stripped of most of his military power, and Hebei was in a state of great chaos.

This was when he was at his most vulnerable and when his strength was at its weakest.

If it were any other time, it would have been before his brother's death, or after he received Liu Yang's support.

Zhao Gao's presence would definitely not cause him too much trouble.

Of course, it's now.

Having just left Nanyang, and not yet firmly established himself in Hebei.

At this point, he didn't even need many enemies. As long as Zhao Gao persuaded Emperor Gengshi to send troops to pursue and kill him, he would have a slim chance of survival!

"Emperor Guangwu is too modest. With your strength, let alone Zhao Gao, you could easily defeat him in another Battle of Kunyang!"

Liu Xiu: “…”

Guys, can you please not drag me into your bragging?

"Gentlemen, stop bragging about me. There are some things you say that even I am ashamed to listen to."

"Especially that so-called Chosen One, I was just a little luckier, not blessed by destiny, much less a great magician!"

His explanation sounded somewhat helpless.

From being the chosen one at the beginning to becoming a great fire mage now.

These people really know how to come up with all sorts of nicknames!

Just when many people thought that Liu Xiu was still trying to keep a low profile, the scene on the sky had reached a critical juncture.

Liu Xiu went to Hebei to report back, while Zhao Gao led more than a thousand cavalrymen to meet Liu Xuan directly.

Even for the powerful Green Forest Army, these thousand-odd riders were a force to be reckoned with!

After all, they were once the most elite cavalry in Wang Mang's Xin Dynasty.

Furthermore, Liu Xuan personally did not dislike Zhao Gao.

During this time, he also learned some things.

A ruler should discard superfluous personal feelings and consider the advantages and disadvantages of everything.

Zhao Gao indeed brought disaster to the Qin Dynasty, and the crimes he committed are too numerous to count!

But that was the Qin Dynasty, not him!

Putting everything else aside, the thousand cavalrymen that Zhao Gao brought alone could be considered a generous pledge of allegiance!

What's more, he also brought Hu Hai's head!

What does it take to gain recognition from others as the legitimate authority of one's own line of success?

name!

Hu Hai's head is in his own hands. He has achieved what even Emperor Gaozu of Han, Liu Bang, could not!

After receiving Zhao Gao in the inner hall, Liu Xuan looked at the head Zhao Gao was holding in his hands. Although he felt disgusted, he still pretended to appreciate it.

"Zhao Gao, you have already rendered a great service by coming to join us. What do you want?"

"I have something to tell Your Majesty."

Zhao Gao chuckled lightly.

This world was chosen by the immortals for a challenge, and those living in it did not know that Liu Xiu would ultimately rule the world.

Therefore, after joining Liu Xuan's side, the first thing he had to do was to reveal the outcome of this struggle for supremacy!

"Wang Mang's Xin Dynasty has already collapsed. Soon someone will indeed rise up and reunify the world, but that person is not Your Majesty."

"what?"

Upon hearing Zhao Gao's words, Liu Xuan stood up in surprise.

"Could it be those Red Eyebrow Army soldiers?"

Among the rebel armies, the two most powerful forces were the Green Forest Army and the Red Eyebrow Army.

In everyone's mind, only these two forces are qualified to contend for supremacy over the world!

But Zhao Gao still shook his head.

"Whether it's the Green Forest or the Red Eyebrows, in the end they can only be the wedding dress made for others."

"In the end, the one who won this empire was Liu Xiu, whom Your Majesty recently bestowed the title of Marquis of Wuxin!"

"He is the future Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty, and also the sixth on the list of wise rulers compiled by the immortals!"

These words immediately turned Liu Xuan's face from white to red.

In an instant, anger surged to the top of his head.

Liu Xuan had always been suspicious of Liu Xiu and his brother, as both of them were exceptionally talented and had made numerous great contributions, which had already overshadowed the emperor.

He killed Liu Yan but spared Liu Xiu only because Liu Xiu was obedient, low-key, and showed no signs of rebellion.

They were also afraid that killing the two brothers at once would easily make other meritorious officials feel a sense of shared fate.

But if what Zhao Gao said is true, then his soft heart this time seems to have made a big mistake!

"Your Majesty, there is no need to panic. Liu Xiu has just arrived in Hebei, his foundation is not stable, and he has few men under his command. We only need to send troops to pursue and kill him, and we can easily take him down!"

Liu Xiu knew that this was his most vulnerable moment, but did Zhao Gao not know that?

Despite being a notorious traitor throughout history, his abilities were no less than those of capable ministers!

"Send troops to hunt them down?"

"But right now, Hebei is completely unruly and is even extremely sensitive to the people I send there."

"Under these circumstances, if I were to rashly send troops into the area, regardless of whether I could pursue and kill Liu Xiu, I fear it would first provoke an attack from all the forces, large and small, within the area!"

Liu Xuan shook his head repeatedly.

Killing Liu Yan would be effortless.

If Liu Xiu were still in Nanyang, the killing wouldn't have caused any trouble either.

But when it comes to the issue of sending troops, he finds it difficult to make a decision.

Or rather, when he learned that troops were to be sent to Hebei, many people might not have obeyed his orders.

When we're on good terms, he's the emperor, and whatever he says goes.

But when it comes to sending troops, he might not be such a person anymore.

"Your Majesty, if you are worried that the other generals will not obey orders, you can leave them to me, and I will take care of your worries."

"If you're worried about provoking a united attack from those forces in Hebei, then you don't need to worry at all."

"If they really have this idea, we only need to make an example of them to deter them, and we might even have a chance to directly win over some of them."

Zhao Gao's face was full of confidence.

A hint of hesitation appeared on Liu Xuan's face.

Zhao Gao struck while the iron was hot.

"Your Majesty, in the past, I was able to control the Qin Dynasty with one hand, kill Prince Fusu, General Meng Tian, ​​Prime Minister Li Si, and even Huhai."

"Since I have said such things today, it is naturally because I have confidence."

"Do you want to be a puppet for the rest of your life?"
