Transcending into a god

Teng Wu and Wu Yangdi were in no mood to go to Mary Street again, and told Jack to go back by himself, and they hurriedly mounted their horses and ran towards Karen Mansion.Along the way, common people can be seen kneeling in the street, praying for their monarch to the majestic statue on the sacred mountain. The bustling and joyful market suddenly became panic and disorderly. Cry in fear.

Teng Wu rode his horse and ran all the way, and Emma's pace was steady and powerful.Wuyang followed closely on horseback, biting his bright red lips because of nervousness.

"Why are people so panicked?" Teng Wu suddenly stopped his horse at a turning, turned his horse's head, and asked Wuyang, "The high priest predicted the death of the monarch, has it happened before?"

Wuyang's chest heaved, "There have been only a few times in the past thousand years. The monarch was still healthy but was predicted to die. Soon, the monarch really died. So..."

"So what?" Teng Wu was impatient at this time.

"So the history books record that once the Dragon God predicts the death of the monarch, it means that the Dragon God has rejected the monarch. Without the blessing and favor of the gods, the monarch cannot become a monarch again."

"You mean, this is me asking King Richard to step down?" Teng Wu raised his voice.

Wu Yang looked at Teng Wu, "Your Majesty, even if the dragon god predicted death, he must provide a sufficient reason. Only once in a thousand years, the high priest conveyed the dragon god's will, and the monarch was rejected by the gods, but in the end the people took over On the side of the monarch, the high priest was executed by the monarch for blasphemy."

Teng Wu felt a sigh of relief, either you die or I die?

"Your Majesty!" Wu Yang took a deep breath, lowered his head and said in a low voice, "Actually, there have been rumors that King Richard is seriously ill, but His Majesty has turned a blind eye to it. It is also said that King Richard has lost the favor of the Dragon God..."

Teng Wu was helpless, "I don't have the ability to heal King Cha."

"But..." Wu Yang glanced at Teng Wu quickly, "But His Majesty saved the old woman who was hit to death by a carriage in full view."

"That's..." Teng Wuxin said that he didn't know when the small universe burst out!

Wu Yang looked up at Teng Wu, "Your Majesty, whenever the death knell rings, it means the confrontation between the gods in the sky and the monarch on earth. Regardless of the reason why King Zha is not favored, Your Majesty should think about it early."

Teng Wu frowned, death knell?Isn't this just the usual political tactics, ridiculous and stupid private fighting tactics?It is about the monarch of the Canglong Kingdom, and the high priest is undoubtedly involved...

Cass... Teng Wu's eyes suddenly turned cold, he snorted coldly, and galloped away.

At this time, Cass, who was in the Hall of Qinzheng, was shocked, and King Richard, who was sitting on the throne, was also pale.

In today's Qinzheng Palace, Princess Una helped King Richard, who was more energetic, to come out to discuss politics in person.Lu Xiu and Duke William took the opportunity to raise the navy's military expenses again.Prime Minister Itami and Cass did not object, but stood with a smile on their faces.Burton, an official on duty at the Financial Secretary, once again detailed the revenue and expenditure of the treasury, but the answer was still impossible.

Princess Una forced herself to suppress her mad temper, and turned to King Richard in a coquettish tone, pointing and cursing Cass, who tricked the loyal nobles into offering gold, silver and warriors.

In contrast, Lu Xiu was much calmer.Since the national treasury really couldn't afford military expenses, Lu Xiu didn't bother, but he hoped that King Richard could send envoys to Zhu Huangguo to learn sailing and shipbuilding.

At this moment, the roaring bell rang.Immediately, no one spoke in Qinzheng Hall, and the sudden sound of the bell was melodious and far-reaching, which made the whole palace feel uneasy.Everyone in the scholarly family was still in a daze, and the servants from outside the palace stumbled through the door and fell to the ground, "Your Majesty! The priest in the palace said that this is... the death knell..."

"What nonsense?!" Cass yelled loudly.

The gate of the Qinzheng Hall was open, and the sound of the bell came in more clearly. Except for the servant who was sobbing in a low voice because of fear, King Richard and Cass listened attentively to the meaning of the bell.Sure enough, a trace of compassion swayed into the palace with the bell, as if floating in front of King Richard.

King Richard stood up tremblingly, his voice was full of doubts, "Dragon God detested me?"

"No! Father! No!" Cass yelled and stepped forward to hold him.The ministers and servants in the hall knelt down one after another, and Una and Lu Xiu seemed to have no time to react to this sudden change.Then, in full view of everyone, King Richard fell on his back.

The big bell rang just above the head of Gerryland City, and several corresponding bell towers outside the city heard it, and immediately rang together. The sound was passed down one by one like the fire on a beacon tower in ancient China. , Just like a spark that is starting a prairie fire, the news that King Richard was rejected by the dragon god is spreading to the whole country.

"Where's Cass?!" Teng Wu rode Emma into the gate of Karen Mansion, tightened his hand on the reins, and Emma raised her front legs high and let out a long hiss.

The guard who had heard the bell sounded bewildered, and replied helplessly, "His Highness is discussing state affairs in the palace..."

Teng Wu turned his horse's head and ran towards the palace, but Wu Yang hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, "Your Majesty, it's better to meet the high priest directly."

Teng Wu was hesitating when a group of riders came running in the distance, and the sound of hooves showed anxiety.Teng Wu saw that it was Cass with his guards.

"Cass!" Teng Wu yelled in the street, with annoyance in his voice.

As soon as Cass waved his hand, the guards whistled and lagged a little behind. Cass rushed over, leaned over and pulled Emma's reins, and rushed into the gate of the mansion with Teng Wu.

The two got off their horses at the door of the podium, and hurried into Teng Wu's living room one after the other.With a cold face, he waved the servant away, closed the door, and Teng Wu turned around and asked, "Are you so impatient? Or are you unwilling to use me?!"

"What?" Cass opened his mouth to ask, but Teng Wu's question choked in his throat, and he didn't react for a while.

"Death knell? Humph!" Teng Wu sneered, looking at Cass, "Your father has long been terminally ill, you won't wait too long. Even if Lu Xiu fights with you, you are the real crown prince after all, you Inheriting the throne is a matter of course, and I won't get in the way. Or are you...really ready and can't wait?"

Now Cass understood Teng Wu's words, "Isn't the death knell your will?"

"My will! What a wonderful answer!" Teng Wu laughed back angrily, "When Crown Prince Cass wanted to ascend the throne, did he use the will of the Dragon God as an excuse to overthrow King Richard? The priests must have discussed it! From the first day I lived in Karen Mansion, you have been thinking about how to use this card!" As he said, Teng Wu smiled and leaned into Cass' ear, "You crawl every night When you go to my bed and condescend to serve me, are you thinking how worth it is?"

Cass' expression changed, "Teng Wu!"

Teng Wu looked at Cass seriously, and stepped back slightly, "I thought such a day would never happen."

Cass didn't answer, but stepped forward to hold Teng Wu's shoulders tightly, "Stay in the Karen Mansion, never go out!" Saying this, Cass turned around and walked away, the cloak hanging behind his shoulders fluttering with the breeze.Teng Wu looked at Cass' back with a blank expression on his face.

The mournful and honest death knell continued to spread to the whole country, and rumors that the dragon god rejected King Richard were widely spread, and the entire court was also fried.All the nobles gathered at the palace in unison. After King Richard was helped into the bedroom, the ministers and powerful nobles in the Qinzheng Hall were silent and waited for the news silently.Lu Xiu and Princess Una sat on both sides with serious expressions.

After a while, the servant announced loudly: "The priest has an audience!"

A priest in formal attire slowly walked into the Palace of Qinzheng.Everyone was staring at the priest. Princess Una was about to speak when she heard the servant shout, "His Royal Highness Cass is here!"

Cass hurried into the hall, and saw the priest standing aside at a glance. "This is……"

Lu Xiu sneered, "This is the messenger sent by the high priest. He will tell us why the death knell is ringing."

Cass looked at the envoy with the same unkind look, "Say it!"

The priest looked solemn, "The high priest has always been able to communicate with the gods. After getting up this morning, the high priest meditated for half a day, and found that the dream at night was actually the will of the dragon god, so he rang the death knell."

"What dream?" Princess Una asked.

The priest lowered his eyes, "The high priest dreamed that the new king was enthroned."

Hearing this, there was an uproar in the hall.

Cass said loudly, "Dragon God didn't dislike my father, nor did I dislike my Canglong Kingdom! His Majesty the Dragon God is in Karen's house right now, and he told me personally that this is not his will."

The priest glanced at Cass, "This is indeed the will of His Majesty the Dragon God. The high priest also dreamed about the three major mistakes King Richard made."

"Fault?!" Princess Una slapped the armrest of the seat.

"Thirty years ago, he led troops to conquer the western rebels. He was very successful and did not seek practical results. For his own face, he caused 30 soldiers to bury their bones on the western border. Up to now, the mountains and rivers there still have the bones of the people of Canglong Kingdom. This is one of them." The priest said in a loud voice, "7 years ago, King Richard accepted the harem but didn't know how to correct the centralizer and indulged in the spread of rumors, which resulted in the innocent death of Queen Dulan. The second is the second."

Princess Una's complexion changed, and Cass bit her lower lip tightly.

"King Richard squandered the national treasury because he loved women. The severe drought in the north that started 10 years ago led to starvation everywhere. However, the national treasury was short of money due to the luxurious life and was unable to rescue, causing countless people in our country to starve to death. This is the third."

After speaking, everyone present stopped talking, and Princess Una and Lu Xiu also didn't speak.Indeed, if it is carefully explored, which generation of monarchs has not misjudged?Not to mention Queen Duran, but King Richard's handling of the war 30 years ago and the impressive drought 10 years ago was indeed inappropriate.

The hall was completely silent, Cass took a deep breath, and said, "Dragon God himself said that he has never made such a will, nor has he rejected his father." Then, he turned to the priest, "You said it was the will of the Dragon God , what proof is there?"

The priest was taken aback.As the herald priest, his words and deeds are unconditionally believed. Now that Cass is really serious, the priest doesn't know what to do.

Princess Una suddenly coughed and said in a clear voice, "I believe this is the will of His Majesty the Dragon God."

"What?" Everyone looked at Una.

Una smiled helplessly, "His Majesty the Dragon God can rescue an unknown old woman in the street, but he is unwilling to cure Richard. The favor of the gods has left Canglong Kingdom."

Cass frowned, but couldn't refute.

Princess Una suddenly turned to the priest, "Excuse me, the high priest dreamed that the new king was enthroned. So who is the new king?"

The priest lowered his eyes, and was silent for a long time under the gaze of everyone, and said, "It's His Highness Cass."
