The queen must start from the head

Chapter 260 The Building Will Fall
The lower realm is the sand dune platform of the Qin Empire.

In the bedroom where the first emperor rested, there were eight people standing.

These eight people all had tense expressions, as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

Because the first emperor died, he died suddenly and without warning last night.

Once such news is released, it will definitely shake the hearts of the ministers outside, and the country will also fall into instability.

Among the people present today, only Prime Minister Li Si, CRRC Commander Zhao Gao, and Second Prince Hu Hai are the most powerful.

Several other people were eunuchs who accompanied the First Emperor.

After a long silence, Prime Minister Li Si said with grief on his face, "Your Majesty's sudden and long death is really a pain for our Great Qin Empire! But to prevent chaos in the world, I'm afraid we can't mourn for His Majesty."

Zhao Gao, who was at the side, echoed, "Your Prime Minister, Gao Yi! Now that the whole country has just been plundered by the demons and heard that His Majesty has passed away, the people will definitely be in panic. And we have not yet returned to the capital, stranded in the sand dunes Everything here is inconvenient. I will not hold the funeral in secret first, and will hold the funeral for His Majesty when I return to the country. This is the best policy!"

The second prince Hu Hai put away the pain on his face when he heard the words, and bowed to the two of them, "This matter is up to the two adults to decide!"

After the three most powerful men settled the matter, the other six eunuchs looked at each other and could only obey the orders.

Soon, Prime Minister Li Si loaded the first emperor's coffin into the carriage, and led all the civil and military officials back to Xiancheng, the capital.

Along the way, many officials came to report to His Majesty, and the eunuchs in the car also pretended to convey the words of these people to His Majesty, but there were Hu Hai and Zhao Gao sitting inside.

Zhao Gao's appearance is not impressive, but his eyes are clear and bright, people can't help but believe him at first sight.

Hu Hai once studied Da Qin law with him and regarded him as his teacher.

Encountered great changes this time, he is also at a loss at this time, not knowing what to do next.

At this time, listening to the minister outside, he looked at his teacher in a panic, asking him how to go in the future.

In response to his panic, Zhao Gao just patted the back of his hand gently and said, "Second Prince, there is no need to panic. Didn't His Majesty say in the edict he left behind that he would kill the young masters Fusu and Meng Tian, ​​and make you the crown prince?" "

Hu Hai still felt that something was wrong.

"But I don't think my father would leave such an edict..."

Obviously the eldest brother is much better than him, although he is also very dissatisfied and has caused a lot of trouble for the eldest brother, but he still thinks that the father will pass the throne to the eldest brother before he dies.

After hearing his words, Zhao Gao looked upright and said, "Second Prince, don't underestimate yourself! The prime minister personally recorded the imperial edict issued by the First Emperor on his deathbed. How can this matter be false? Wait until I return After the funeral for His Majesty in Xiancheng, you, the second prince, will inherit the great rule and become the second emperor of the Great Qin Empire! I also ask the second prince to show the courage that a prince should have from now on! I have placed my trust in you High hopes!"

When Hu Hai heard his teacher praise him so much, he was very moved.

"Yes! I will never let you down, teacher, and I won't let the common people down!"

No, you will.Zhao Gao thought.

Although you may not disappoint me, you will definitely disappoint the common people.

Because your teacher, I am a spy sent by the Monster Race Wanshou Mountain!
Only by making the water in the lower realm more chaotic, can our monster clan take advantage of the situation and rise up.

A few days ago, it received a message from its clan elders, saying that the demon clan had regained a foothold in the upper realm, and the demon clan must also speed up to swallow the lower realm as soon as possible!
Outside the carriage, the wheels of the carriage were still rolling forward, carrying the people on the carriage towards Xiancheng, the capital of the country.

……

Upper Realm, Yuheng District, Kunyuan Sect.

In a gorgeous palace-like room, there was a burst of cracking sound suddenly.

There was only one young man and one middle-aged man in the room.

It was the young man who reached out to smash things, while the middle-aged man stood in front of the former with a look of awe.

Because the young man in front of him is not an ordinary person, but the most beloved descendant of his ancestor.

After the young man finished smashing things, his expression regained his composure.

He knew he had just lost his composure, but he couldn't be blamed for it.

One must know that his old ancestor had stayed at the peak of the immortal for many years, and was only one step away from becoming a god.

But it is extremely difficult to become a god in this upper realm.

In ancient times, the world was first opened, and there were many gods.

Those are innate gods who were born according to the fate of heaven and earth, and are in charge of wind, rain, thunder, lightning, mountains, rivers, swamps and other things in the world.

Later, after the spiritual energy between the heaven and the earth is filled, all things are alive.

After going through countless hardships and obstacles, these acquired beings finally opened up a path for themselves to cultivate and become gods.However, the innate gods would not sit back and watch their jobs being taken away, so many protracted wars broke out between the two sides.

In the end, the gods fell and entered the twilight age.

After that, the demon tribe rose up and became the helmsman of the new era.

Then the human race also rose after the monster race, writing this era.

The divine power of today's gods can no longer match that of the ancient gods.

Even so, becoming a god is still the pinnacle of the avenue that countless practitioners long for.

There are two ways to become a god.

The first is to practice step by step and practice again, to practice hard to reach the peak of immortality, and then after thousands of years of painstaking suffering, it is finally possible to touch the glimmer of opportunity to become a god.

This step can be said to have stumped countless immortals.

Because that trace of opportunity is mysterious and mysterious, it is really elusive.

The second way is a shortcut.

This method was discovered by a mortal who aspires to become a god. It is to use the luck of the world to support orthodoxy and establish a fortune dynasty, and then use the incense and vows of hundreds of millions of people to cultivate into a god.

It is also a coincidence, the mortal who discovered this method just wrote down his bold conjecture in the book.

After all, he himself died of old age and failed to become a god.

But his book was accidentally obtained by a practitioner.

That person tried to perfect this method and successfully practiced it to the level of a saint.

Later, he was beheaded by another saint, and the book was also taken by him.After the pilgrim was promoted to enlightenment, he was led to the upper realm.

He didn't realize how important the new method of becoming a god was in the upper realm, so he leaked the contents of this book.

This news soon attracted immortals and even gods to seize the book.

The book was eventually stolen by a god.

This man of God made repeated revisions and polishes to this book, turning it into a true mystical book.

Since then, there have been more gods and men in the upper world.

Almost every few hundred years, a new god appears.

Corresponding to this is the change of dynasties in the lower realm, and the battle for the throne is fickle.

These gods and men became gods by establishing the orthodoxy of the world in the lower realm, establishing destiny and extracting luck.

Today's ancestor of Kun Yuanzong, after being trapped in the peak of the fairyland for many years, finally took this step.

In order to establish the current Great Qin Empire, the ancestor of the Kunyuan Sect paid a heavy price.

Because in the previous competition among the heroes in the lower realm, the royal families of many large countries may have had a force from the upper realm to support them.

However, after paying a lot of benefits in exchange, the ancestor of Kun Yuanzong finally allowed Qin to rule the world, and it became inevitable that he would become the co-lord of the world.

After the establishment of the Qin Empire, the Kunyuan Sect ancestor began his cultivation with peace of mind.

However, he had only practiced for a few decades, and a catastrophe came.

Immediately afterwards, the demons crossed the endless sea and landed in the lower world of the human race, massacring countless human people on the way.

Today's Great Qin Empire has become riddled with holes, people's hearts are scattered, and the luck that the ancestor of Kun Yuanzong can absorb is naturally greatly reduced.

Therefore, in the previous negotiations with the demons, the third proposition requiring the demons to withdraw from the lower realm was the result of Kun Yuanzong's strong advocacy.

Now the demons in the lower realm have withdrawn.

I thought that the Great Qin Empire would follow suit.

But who would have thought that the founding emperor died suddenly.

When the ancestor of the Kunyuan Sect sensed that the Great Qin Empire was suddenly in decline, he immediately called one of his favorite descendants and ordered him to take people to the lower realm to investigate the matter.

He also asked the other party to find a way to stabilize Daqin's current situation and extend Daqin's Guozuo.

Because he still needs to absorb at least ten years of national fortune before he can become a god.

Once the Great Qin Empire collapses before becoming a god, the ancestor of the Kunyuan Sect will also suffer a decline in cultivation, and there will be no hope of becoming a god in this life.

Knowing the seriousness of this matter, this descendant of the ancestor, that is, the young man now, immediately sent his confidants to the lower realm to find out the matter.

However, the results of the investigation showed that the First Emperor Yingzheng died of natural causes, and there was no black hand behind it.

This confidant, who hurried back to resume his life, did not notice that the prime minister under the First Emperor had secretly corrected the edict and planned to support the Second Son of the First Emperor to ascend the throne as emperor.

This move pushed the Great Qin Empire into a real abyss.

Therefore, the ancestor of Kunyuanzong, who sensed that the situation was getting worse, directly called his descendant to reprimand him.

That's how the other party vented his anger by smashing things in the house.

Now that the young man had regained his composure, he asked his confidants, "When you went to the lower realm, did you find any unclean people sneaking into the Great Qin Palace? Could it be that there are some people in our Kunyuan Sect?" Trouble behind your back?"

For example, the person from the Qianyuan Sect, my arch-rival?
The middle-aged man thought for a while and said, "I haven't found any traces of other big forces in the upper realm meddling in the lower realm. Instead, there are some monster races around the First Emperor."

"Monster?"

The young man sneered, "It's just a race that is on the decline. It can only live in the monster clan's territory in Kaiyang District. What kind of climate can it be?"

The middle-aged man said cautiously, "The demon clan still has demon gods, so don't be careless."

The young man frowned upon hearing this.

When the ancestor called him to give a lecture, the other party told him that the current situation has reached the most critical time.

Any hint of danger must be snuffed out.

No matter what, he must find a way to save Da Qin's national destiny.

Thinking of this, he had to make a decision.

"Go down and get ready, we have to go to the lower realm ourselves! I want to see who dares to play tricks behind our Kun Yuanzong's back!"

The middle-aged man was shocked. Could it be that the situation in the lower realm was so bad that the young master had to take action personally?

After recovering for a moment, he immediately took the order to retreat.

And that young son also searched for information about the Great Qin Empire in his house.

……

Lower realm, fire in August.

On the road from Zhidao to Xianyang, the first emperor began to mourn.

Soon, Hu Hai inherited the Datong and was known as "Qin II" in history.

In October of the first year of the Second Emperor, the new king ordered amnesty for the world in that month.

When he first came to the throne, he ordered all the childless concubines in his father's palace to be buried.

All the craftsmen responsible for burying Qin Shihuang were also sealed in the Lishan Mausoleum.

Immediately afterwards, he recruited 5 warriors to garrison Xianyang, and asked these people to teach him how to shoot and hunt birds and animals.

On this day, a "thin eclipse of the sun and the moon" suddenly appeared in the sky.

As the old saying goes, "the comet flies, the sun and the moon eclipse thinly".

This "sun-lunar eclipse" refers to a scene in which the sun and the moon appear in the sky at the same time, covering each other as if they are devouring each other.

Such celestial phenomena are really ominous.

The descendant of the ancestor of Kun Yuanzong who had just brought people to the lower realm heard many people talking about the ominous weather in private.

He just scoffed at this.

It's just an ordinary celestial phenomenon, there's nothing to be afraid of?

These people in the lower realm are ignorant, and a mere celestial phenomenon can scare them into a state of incomprehension.

If his ancestor hadn't been waiting for the Great Qin Empire to recover quickly, he wouldn't have come down to such a humble place. He would have dirty his feet.

After the group arrived in the lower realm, they headed directly to Xiancheng.

They are going to directly control Qin Er Shi, and let the other party find a way to govern the country quickly.

But they didn't know that it was a bit late for them to come to the lower realm this time.

Because it was July just before August.

The imperial court conscripted a group of poor people to guard the border in Yuyang, which was ravaged by demons.

And the junior officers of this team, that is, the head of the village, are Chen Sheng and Wu Guang.

These two men followed the two captains sent by the imperial court and led more than 900 soldiers to Yuyang to guard the border.

However, this team encountered a downpour when they walked to Daze Township, Qi County on the way.

In the simple thatched hut, I watched the heavy rain falling outside.

Inside the room, Chen Sheng and Wu Guang felt a little heavy in their hearts when they heard the sound of crackling rain and the cool breeze blowing into the room from time to time.

According to the laws of the Great Qin Dynasty, if the 900 people they brought could not arrive in Yuyang on time, they would all have to be sent for questioning and beheading.

And this time, it happened to be the rainy season here, so the postponement was probably doomed.

After the two of them looked at each other, they both knew they had to come up with a solution.

Little did they know, it was October of the previous year.

There was also a small official named Liu Bang who was ordered to escort the prisoners to Lishan, and many mortals escaped on the way.

And letting a mortal escape is a serious crime.

This person simply let go of all the prisoners, and he also started to flee because of this.

A dozen or so prisoners thought that Liu Bang was a man of loyalty, so they decided to follow him.

So these dozen people started their escape.

On their way to escape, they had to pass through a narrow mountain road that was only accessible to one person.

At this time, a huge white snake suddenly appeared on the road blocking the way.

This snake was coiled around its body, blocking everyone's way forward and refusing to retreat.

Seeing that there is no way to go ahead, the guards from Lishan Mountain may come after them at any time.

As the leader, Liu Bang pulled out the sword from his waist in a cruel heart, and killed the white snake with one sword.

At the moment when the white snake died, an ordinary-looking old woman suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

I saw her crying at the white snake's body, "My son! You are the son of the White Emperor. You turned into a white snake and lay on the ground, but you were killed by the son of the Red Emperor. Mother can't avenge you. !"

After crying for a while, the old woman hugged the white snake's body and disappeared in the same place in a blink of an eye.

The others who stood behind Liu Bang and witnessed this scene were horrified.

You must know that Qin Xianggong, the ancestor of the Great Qin Empire, said that he was a descendant of the White Emperor, but now Liu Bang, a descendant of the Red Emperor, killed the White Snake who was the son of the White Emperor.

Doesn't this mean that the destiny to replace the Great Qin Empire lies with the man in front of them? !
With this in mind, when everyone looked at Liu Bang again, their eyes were full of fanatical admiration.

my lord!
They decided that this person would be their future lord!
Liu Bang, who was still wondering what happened just now, turned around and noticed the fiery gazes of everyone, and coughed slightly unconsciously and said, "Well, let's leave quickly! Let's get out of here first!"

"Okay! Everything is up to the lord!"

"That's right, we all listen to the lord!"

So the group of people meandered down the mountain road.

At the top of the high stone on the inner side of the mountain road, the figure of the old woman holding the white snake flickered and turned into Mu Lian's figure in an instant.And after the white snake fell to the ground, it also turned into a small ball, Andiwa.

As soon as it landed, it began to ask for credit, "How about it, isn't the transformation technique I performed just now very good?"

Seeing Mulian nodded, it immediately grinned triumphantly.

And Mu Lian watched Liu Bang and others go away, still thinking about things in her heart.

Now that the Great Qin Empire is in chaos, it is only a matter of time before it falls apart.

She knew that the Kun Yuan sect sent people to the lower realms, trying to turn the tide.

But the Great Qin Empire is now in decline, and the Kun Yuanzong family is not the only one in the upper realm who desires to become a god.As far as she knows, there are already big forces that have placed heavy bets on the young man who is about to be born in Chudi.This force is still an "acquaintance" of hers.

Since everyone wants to support orthodoxy and become a god by absorbing luck, let's play a game on the chessboard of the lower world!

I also want to see who is the winner at the end!
