Chapter 1038: It is impossible to defy fate!

Kaiyang County.

In the county government office, a flag was flying high, with the four characters "Xingdao for Heaven" written on it.

A large number of people gathered in front of the Yamen, most of whom were refugees passing through. Zhang Jiao stood in the main hall, with several figures standing in front of him.

"Everyone, the court is unjust, traitors are in power, and the people are displaced. I accept the destiny of heaven, obey the people's will, and decide to overthrow the tyranny of Dayan!"

"From now on, our Tiandao Alliance will rise up!"

"I am the general of Heaven, Liang is the general of Earth, and Bao is the general of Ren!"

"We will uphold justice for heaven, overthrow Bao Yan, and return power to the people!"

"Would you like to follow me?"

Zhang Jiao greeted the core members of the Tiandao Alliance below and shouted in unison: "We are willing to follow the general and work together to achieve great things!"

"good!"

Zhang Jiao nodded with satisfaction and looked at Pei Yuanshao: "Go quickly to send the message, and bring the second and third brothers to join us!"

"Send literati to publish a message, and then send out documents from the Tiandao Alliance to spread throughout the world!"

"Gather the righteous people from all over the world to work together!"

"promise!"

"From now on, strictly guard the four city gates, train my disciples, and form an army!"

"promise!"

After everyone left, Zhang Jiao stood quietly in the lobby and said with a bit of solemnity on his face: "This time, I will never lose!"

…

royal palace.

The emperor died, the prime minister passed away, and there were no ministers in the court.

"Everyone, the country cannot be left without a master for a day. Now, Dayu's millions of troops are pressing down on the border, and there are even Hunu cavalry knocking at the pass in the north."

"News just came that rebels have risen in the suburbs of Beijing and have already swept tens of thousands of people."

"I'll wait, what should I do?"

Li Xiang had a look of pain on his face. The prime minister had feared Dayu like a tiger when he was still alive. Now, both the emperor and the prime minister have passed away without clearing up their affairs. The princes are fighting among themselves, and the princes are coveting the throne of emperor.

Externally, wars continued to fail, and internally, famine broke out and the people were in dire straits.

What should we do in this situation?

"His Royal Highness the Banquet King has arrived!"

Following a loud shout, a tall figure walked into the hall.

All the ministers looked stern. His Royal Highness the King of Banquets is the current emperor. He has ignored government affairs all year round and usually lives in seclusion, but today he actually entered the palace!

Why come?

"See His Royal Highness the Banquet King!"

"You don't have to be polite!"

The King of Banquet waved his hand, looked at Li Xiang and said: "Li Shangshu, the land of Gyeonggi Province is becoming more and more turbulent now!"

"I wonder what countermeasures you adults have?"

"Uncle Emperor, the ministers are discussing. After all, the country cannot be without a master for a day, and the court cannot be without a prime minister for a day!"

"I, Da Yan, have no reserves. My top priority is to choose a prime minister for the imperial court and support the new emperor's ascension to the throne!"

A young man wearing a python robe spoke calmly, with a touch of pride in his expression, as if he had already embraced the throne of emperor.

"Um!"

"This statement makes perfect sense!"

"However, the enthronement of the new emperor cannot be done in a day or two. What do you think, my king, why not ask the empress to take charge of the overall situation first?"

"Um?"

Li Xiang also looked a little surprised. The queen had been out of favor for many years and had been very low-key in recent years.

Emperor Yan is even planning to abolish the queen!

Now, the King of Banquet is actually willing to come forward for the Queen?

"Uncle Emperor, this is inappropriate!"

"Since ancient times, I, Da Yan, have no precedent of the harem intervening in politics. The Queen has been living in the harem all year round and does not understand the affairs of the court. This matter is against the ancestral system!"

Li Xiang silently watched her uncle and nephew argue, feeling a little inexplicably sad in her heart.

Is the once-powerful Da Yan Empire really about to fade away?

He remembered the discussion between Yu Shang and the Prime Minister that day in the study room of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

"Everyone, the top priority is the rebels in the capital!"

"The Tiandao Alliance has summoned the world with a piece of paper, and it has become a climate. If it cannot be extinguished quickly, I fear that the world will be in chaos!"

"At that time, rebels from all over the country will follow suit, and our country, Da Yan, will be in danger of subjugation!"

Li Xiang expressed her worries, and the King of Banquet waved his hand and said calmly: "It's hard for a mere thief to become a great weapon!"

"It is more important to establish a new king."

"No!"

"These rebels have gathered tens of thousands of people. If they are allowed to develop, they may attack Bauhinia City in a few days!"

"Master Li is serious."

"How about withdrawing a frontier army?"

"As for the position of crown prince, the second prince is extremely talented, loyal, filial, courteous, and has the style of the previous emperor. He is worthy of the heavy responsibility!"

"Everyone, the matter of His Majesty's funeral has not been discussed yet, but you are still arguing here!"

"The top priority is His Majesty's funeral!"

"Master Wang, what you said is wrong..."

After a meaningless quarrel, Li Xiang left the hall in a state of despair.

The court has no owner!

Even among these civil and military ministers, no one can turn the tide at this time!

"Who can save the country?"

"he?"

An idea flashed in Li Xiang's mind and he quickly left the palace.

"Master, are you going to the Yamen?"

"No!"

"Go to the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion!"

Da Yan's Imperial Master, Yu Shang's father, is known as the most mysterious being in the hundred years since the founding of Da Yan.

However, Yu Qian stays behind closed doors all year round, never sees outsiders, and does not get involved in government affairs. In this situation, it may not be that simple to ask him to come forward.

"etc!"

Li Xiang quickly stopped the carriage, pondered for a moment, and said softly: "Go to the Prince's Mansion first!"

"yes!"

So, the carriage drove to Prince Ci's mansion again.

Prince Ci is Old Ghost Yan!

"Please inform the Minister of Personnel Li Xiang that he would like to see His Royal Highness Prince Ci."

"Sir Li, His Royal Highness has gone to the Imperial Master's mansion!"

"Oh?"

Li Xiang was also stunned for a moment, sighed lightly, and took the carriage to the Imperial Master's mansion again.

...

In the Imperial Master's mansion.

Yu Qian and Old Ghost Yan sat opposite each other, and Yu Chang personally served on the side.

"Master, Dayan is in trouble now. You absolutely cannot stand by and watch!"

"Your Highness, you are too kind!"

Yu Qian looked far away and shook his head slightly: "When Yu Qian entered Dayan, he said that he would never interfere in Dayan's state affairs."

"The survival of Dayan has nothing to do with me!"

"But you are a Yan after all!"

Old Yan showed a hint of helplessness on his face and sighed: "The situation is so chaotic, Quan Ji is dead, and the people in the court, such as Li Xiang, are unable to take on the heavy responsibility."

"None of the younger generation has a promising future."

"I can't watch my brother's foundation being ruined like this. ! ”

Yuchang also had a gloomy face, Yuqian still shook his head and said softly: "Some things are already destined!"

"It is hard to defy fate!"

"Hmm?"

Old Ghost Yan caught a key message from Yuchang's words: "It is hard to defy fate?"

"Could it be..."

"Yes!"

"This time, fate is in Dayu, no one can change it!"

"Even the people in the mountain can't do it!"

"Hehe!"

Old Ghost Yan smiled bitterly, with a bit of gloom in his expression: "Isn't fate always determined by them?"

"Really not!"
