Chapter 225: The True Dragon Emperor
The reason why all the officials came to cry and howl as soon as possible was to show their loyalty.
If they were implicated by the furious emperor, they did not want to die together with the Qi court at this time of dynasty change.
No matter how many dynasties have changed in this world, who will be the emperor in the palace.
These dignitaries from aristocratic families can still occupy the highest place as human beings.
Even though the emperor has unlimited power, he always keeps his word.
But it is impossible for him to govern the entire world with the power of one person and manage countless big and small affairs in all directions in Jiuzhou.
In the end, shouldn’t we still use people from aristocratic families with vision and background to serve as officials and run the country?
But what made them uneasy was that Xiyang Emperor Jiang Guang learned such bad news.
He didn't say a word from beginning to end, but just ordered people to wait outside.
The atmosphere in the palace gradually became lifeless, oppressive, and extremely cold.
No matter what measures the emperor takes, no matter how angry he is and accuses everyone of being incompetent.
I still knelt down and cried bitterly like them, crying that I was an unworthy descendant, incompetent and ignorant.
These high-ranking officials can also cooperate with each other to play out this scene and deal with today's events smoothly.
But what made them most uneasy was that from beginning to end, Emperor Xiyang showed no sign of anything.
In fact, since the past few years, Emperor Xiyang has gradually become reclusive, and many memorials must be sent to the palace by special personnel for processing.
Most of the ministers have never seen the emperor's face even since they took over.
Only a few favored ministers can be lucky enough to enter the palace.
But they could only vaguely see the majestic and oppressive figure in the palace through layers of gauze screens.
Bathing in the imperial power, those courtiers who came to see him could only bury their heads as low as possible.
From the beginning to the end, he did not dare to raise his head and look directly at the emperor.
Even in these years, the emperor has never favored any concubines, and the few concubines in the harem have become mere decorations.
If the emperor had not been very diligent, he would have responded properly to all the memorials sent in, and all the replies would have been commendable.
Otherwise, the ministers may really suspect that there is something wrong with their Emperor.
Just when the ministers pretended to be in great mourning, they heard a cold and deep voice coming from the palace.
"My dear friends, please go back and perform your duties."
When everyone heard the hoarse voice, they couldn't help but be inspired by the fear deep in their hearts, and they had goosebumps all over their bodies.
He was preparing to stand up and leave tremblingly, but suddenly he heard the voice coming from the palace again:
"Hu Aiqing, stay."
A middle-aged man had not yet kneeled down. Zizhong stood up and subconsciously responded:
"I am here..."
The next moment, this minister was completely dead while wailing.
When the ministers were horrified, they looked up and saw a black dragon with chaotic eyes rushing out of the palace at an extremely fast speed.
With one bite, he bit the important minister named Hu into a ball of minced flesh and swallowed it directly.
The ministers were extremely horrified, thinking that something terrible and evil had been mixed into the palace, the residence of the emperor.
But what they didn't expect was that the terrifying blue dragon did not trigger the formation in the palace to suppress evil spirits.
There is no evil spirit in his body, but he reveals a very strong royal power.
The next moment, the blue dragon turned into a shadow and disappeared.
But in contrast, a tall and majestic man slowly walked out of the palace.
Wearing a black dragon robe with a five-clawed golden dragon embroidered on it, he is more than ten feet tall.
The most terrifying thing is that its upper body does not have a human face, but a dragon body covered with scales and a pair of chaotic pupils.
Looking at this half-human, half-dragon terrifying creature slowly walking out of the temple, everyone felt as if something was pinching their throats. I couldn't breathe, couldn't say a word, I could only be immersed in fear and couldn't extricate myself.
"My dear friends..."
The half-dragon, half-human emperor glanced at everyone present with his emotionless golden vertical pupils.
The ministers were so frightened that they suddenly realized that it was an extremely disrespectful act to look directly at the emperor like this.
Not to mention facing such a terrifying emperor...
Most people hurriedly knelt down and buried their heads as low as possible, too trembling to dare to make any move.
"My dear friends, don't worry." Emperor Xiyang's tone was very slow, but full of a sense of power:
"The dragon veins of Daqi have long been integrated into my body. Daqi welcomes you at this moment. What is coming is a prosperous age that will last for eternity.”
"I will lead all my dear friends to slay the rebellious evil spirits and restore the situation in the world."
While speaking, Emperor Xiyang also raised the dragon claw on his body and quietly placed it on a on the officer's head.
"Zhao Aiqing, do you think so?"
"Yes...yes."
The man was covered in sweat and almost fainted.
The person who had just been eaten by Canglong was the Minister of War, and he was the Minister of War.
If the emperor kills the minister because of his incompetence in doing things, then there is a high probability that he, the minister, will also die.
But who knew that Emperor Xiyang put the dragon's claw on his head, but did not squeeze it tightly.
Instead, he continued in a gloomy tone:
"Hu Aiqing is dead and the position of minister is vacant. It will be up to you, Zhao Aiqing, to take over. The governor will eliminate the thieves and rehabilitate him."
< br>
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, thank you."
After handling the important affairs of the court with an extreme calmness, Emperor Xiyang, who shocked the ministers, slowly returned to his palace again.
Only the ministers who were so frightened that they no longer dared to have any small thoughts left the palace one after another as if they were running for their lives.
And Zhao Shangshu, who had experienced a fright and was inexplicably promoted, went through a cycle of great sorrow and great joy, and no longer dared to have any small thoughts.
I just think about how to do things to achieve some results and save my own life.
When the dragon's claw pressed on his head before, the indescribable and extreme fear made him almost lose his mind.
This feeling was a hundred times more terrifying than death, and he didn’t want to have the chance to try it again.
And when Zhili began to mobilize its forces at full speed, preparing to assemble all the counter-insurgency and anti-traitor forces to fight hard.
Xu Ke also met again the demon Qin Shezhi who always saw the beginning but not the end of the dragon.
“Congratulations, your posture is indeed extraordinary when I see you today, and your temperament is completely different from before.”
"I think your Excellency has succeeded the world-preserving true spirit and has mastered one of the powers in this world?"
Looking at Qin Shezhi's enthusiastic smile, Xu Ke couldn't help but sigh, and then asked:
"Now our position is not like in the past where we can temporarily cooperate."
"I live in this world, and there are intact eggs under the nest. What's more, I already have the task of ruling the world, and even more so in this world. We share weal and woe."
"You are the devil who plays with the world and plays with the world, and you are the devil from outside the world that we need to guard against."
The two people's positions are becoming more and more extreme. It can be said that they are tit-for-tat and sworn in.
But Qin Shezhi slowly rode a gray donkey to look for him. Was it just to provoke him?
You must know that Xu Ke, who has some authority to control the world, is no longer as powerless against the thoughts of the devil as in the past.
As long as he is willing, he can even capture and then destroy Qin Shezhi's demonic thought.
