It's Time to Meet Shu's Little Sweetheart
The Great Beast's lips curled slightly, and with a straight sweep of its tail, it sent the collapsing man flying. He wouldn't die, anyway.
Then he roared to the sky, the enormous roar shocking the entire Hundred Societies and almost blowing the whole city away.
One month later
No one expected that Wang would be defeated so quickly; even True Dragon, who was holding popcorn and ready to watch the show, was dumbfounded.
Dude, what did you say to the Former Emperor more than forty years ago?
What did they say to my face a few years ago?
They said they were 100% sure, and this is the result?
The speed at which she knelt was a little too fast.
I was hoping to make a name for myself in history, but look what happened.
While he may not be branded a tyrant, his place in history is certainly not good; at the very least, there are no kind words about him.
Is Wang still alive inside? It seems Jie also ran inside. Should we send someone to help him?
Will the civil and military officials agree?
Two days later, almost everyone knew the whole story.
The True Dragon sitting in the palace trembled slightly, then collapsed weakly onto the floor.
"This guy actually failed. I really shouldn't have believed him."
The True Dragon breathed a sigh of relief and ordered the Imperial Guard to be on high alert, ready to deal with the Sui Beast breaking out of its cage at any time.
But soon the tombs beneath Baizao returned to tranquility.
Age: He roared, trying to scare people, did he really think I'd dare go out? And where's my divine sense?
The Sui Beast was furious but helpless, because it truly could not perceive the location of its divine consciousness.
Or rather, it has completely disappeared, which is terrifying.
To instantly destroy divine consciousness right under one's nose—even Demons couldn't do that so quickly.
Could this be another new technology touted by outsiders?
Until He has a clear understanding of the whole picture, He currently only dares to roar from underground.
But the impact of this roar was far from small. The court and the public were shaken, and countless memorials from civil and military officials flooded the True Dragon's desk like snowflakes.
"Lock this guy up. No one is allowed to see him without my order!"
As True Dragon reviewed the memorials, he shouted loudly.
This guy really screwed himself over. How could he and his father have believed his empty promises?
But
True Dragon looked at a calligraphy scroll hanging on the wall of his study; the strokes were vigorous and beautiful.
The signature below is Jie.
"No, according to the information that Shuo originally told Great Ancestor, if the agent returns to the original body of Sui, some of the items corresponding to the returnee will completely disappear, and even the Remembrance will become blurred."
But not only myself, everyone else knows Jie. Could the information be wrong?
Or have things already changed?
It can only be said that he is indeed the leader of a country. When the whole country was busy and overwhelmed, True Dragon quickly realized that something was wrong.
"Issue my decree: the operating expenses of the Si Sui Tai shall be increased fivefold compared to the year before last. At the same time, additional personnel shall be dispatched to the library to review the materials left behind by the Great Yan True Dragon throughout history. All the books related to the year shall be transported here, and I will personally examine them!"
"However, the court and the public are in turmoil. If you neglect state affairs, it would be inappropriate. I urge Your Majesty to reconsider!"
The Grand Tutor was waiting nearby, knelt on the ground and begged the True Dragon to entrust this matter to him.
However, the contemporary True Dragon has a different perspective.
"I think the Crown Prince is about fifteen years old this year."
"Your Majesty is wise; His Crown Prince is indeed fifteen years old."
"Issue my decree that Crown Prince Yan Wu will assume the regency in three days, and all matters of the court, large and small, will be handled by the Crown Prince, including these memorials."
At this moment, what True Dragon was thinking was:
Fifteen is the perfect time to strive, my good child. Now it's your turn to clean up the mess ahead.
The civil and military officials were probably itching to give them a good scolding, but they couldn't very well adopt that aggressive tone when dealing with a child.
He did indeed take the blame. True Dragon had frankly admitted his mistakes and his Absolute Authority from the very first day things changed, as for his inability to admit his errors.
Nothing major has happened yet, has it?
So True Dragon felt the pressure was manageable, and besides, there was nothing to hide.
If you didn't fight, you didn't fight. What else can you say?
It's not like I did anything terrible like patricide or regicide. No one can criticize my morality. History books might just say I was a little willful.
In short, there's not much of a problem; the advantage lies with me!
Chapter 317 It's time to go see Shu's little sweetheart.
"Has Teacher Jie really passed away?"
Crown Prince Yan Wu was forcibly brought here by his father to assume the responsibility of overseeing the country, was completely bewildered.
What exactly happened in just one month?
No wonder Teacher Jie was willing to give me a two-month break; how come I died right after the break?
The passing of his teacher, who had been there for him as he grew up, was undoubtedly a blow to Yanwu.
But as the crown prince, he could never show his sadness on his face, especially since he was still overseeing the country.
Although Jie's power was not very high, his influence on the entire court was second only to True Dragon.
Even if Yanwu were to inherit the throne in the future, Jie would still be respectfully addressed as the Imperial Tutor by the officials in the court.
Yanwu ascended the throne at an inappropriate age, a throne that should have been his in the future, while also facing obstruction and verbal attacks from his ministers.
An inappropriate emotion arose in his mind: let whoever wants to sit on this throne sit on it.
However, he suppressed the thought as soon as it came to mind, after all, matters of national importance cannot be decided impulsively based on a mere thought.
Although Yanwu is still young, he already possesses the demeanor of a ruler and is not swayed by emotions.
"Is Jie really dead?"
None of Jie's brothers and sisters noticed her passing, but something seemed amiss.
Especially the girl who gave her the necklace, she's been feeling a bit off lately.
Theoretically speaking, the return of the Sui will trigger extraordinary phenomena in the heavens and earth, and even be reflected in the rules.
For example, the loss of Remembrance.
But... why does it always feel so wrong?
Just then, Nian, who was wandering aimlessly in Lungmen, suddenly had a newspaper smeared on his face.
"What the hell is that?"
She ripped the newspaper off her face, but before she could even start tearing it up, she was stunned by the headline.
The newspaper headline read, "Imperial Tutor Jie died peacefully yesterday and was buried with the honors due to a prince by the Yan Emperor, with a cenotaph erected for him."
Wait, why do these people still remember their sister?
As if he had discovered something extraordinary, Nian immediately thought of the necklace that Master Huang wanted him to give her.
Perhaps things are not as they seem.
Why did the company's annual meeting think this way, instead of questioning whether their information was incorrect?
Because you can't lie to yourself; once the fragment returns to its original form, everything related to it will disappear.
Everyone knows this perfectly well and no one would doubt it.
But now other things have happened, and Nian, who was involved in the "love triangle" from beginning to end, has also noticed that something is wrong.
Perhaps this relationship wasn't what she had imagined. Just two and a half months ago, Master Huang had found her and repeatedly told her to give the necklace to Jie.
The tone of his voice didn't seem to convey affection, but rather a deep sense of worry, and only then did Nian understand.
"Damn it! I've never been in a relationship before."
He slapped his forehead, stuffed the newspaper in his hand into his pocket, and hurriedly found Ji's textile factory in Lungmen.
After revealing her identity, the staff led the "young girl" into the manager's office inside the factory.
In the words of Victoria or Columbia, the president's sister has arrived.
Without saying anything, Nian directly instructed the factory's management to contact Ji immediately.
Although the Sui Beast are very close to each other, they often only have a telepathic connection with each other under certain special circumstances.
Connecting with each other is also a problem.
Si can roughly sense where his family members are, but he cannot communicate with them verbally.
8. Unless one uses their own abilities, the ability to communicate over long distances is not something everyone possesses, and just because someone can do it doesn't mean that others can.
Therefore, most of the time, the communication between this large family still relies on communication technology. Fortunately, Yan Country has now built a communication network of a certain scale.
4. Although it cannot compare to Utopia, it has basically achieved commercialization.
Soon after, Nian told Ji about her discovery, but the latter obviously realized it even faster than she did.
Ji was unclear about the cause of this phenomenon, but after Nian's reminder, he remembered again the tea that Master Huang had been providing to his sister.
Every month, a batch of tea from Utopia is sent to Great Wilderness City. This trade has been going on for decades, and the tea is believed to have the power to suppress the pollution of underground Demons.
If Master Huang really preserved Jie's consciousness...
It's not impossible, after all, this man could even cure his own sister's illness, so maybe he really can.
Moreover, the timing was just too coincidental. As for the gossip that Nian revealed, not hearing any follow-up information is indeed disheartening.
"Shu"
My older sister is too old to stay at home... Why him of all people?
How could Shu's inner thoughts possibly escape Ji's notice, especially since there had been signs of this many years ago?
Even if we wanted to keep it a secret, Nian, with her big mouth, definitely couldn't hide it. Besides, we're all family, so there's really no need for us to keep things from each other.
Ji wouldn't feel sad about this. Although she would feel a strong sense of reluctance, it was not a reason for her to stop her sister from pursuing happiness. Besides, the other party's conditions and status were indeed suitable.
But why is it that he is a married man, and not just one?
He initially harbored resentment, but if this man truly saved Jie's life...
This minor flaw is acceptable; it balances things out.
As Shu's younger brother who cared for him the most, he immediately shared the news with Shu and his other siblings.
However, perhaps it was dissatisfaction with the imperial court that led them to seek information.
When Ji discovered that his second brother wanted to solo Sui, Yan Country actually had the ability to rescue Jie.
However, the cost is that it may cause political instability and all sorts of strange troubles.
But no matter what, these officials stood by and did nothing, not even caring about the contributions their family had made to the Yan Country in the past.
This made Ji particularly unhappy, so he prepared to tell the Emperor of Yan Country about it.
However, whether or not to tell this to my second brother when telling others is still a question.
Moreover, there is currently no evidence, and Ji is unable to convey this news to his second brother.
As the principal offender of a major crime, Wang is now under constant guard by the Imperial Guard, and even the surrounding area is protected by extremely strong Originium.
Even the Old Heavenly Master has arrived. Even if Ling can send this message to her second brother through a dream, it will inevitably be discovered.
The relationship between his family and the imperial court was already tense, so now was not the time to cause any more trouble.
Let's wait and see.
Through the business channels he had built, Ji spread the news to almost all of his family members at an extremely fast pace.
