Chapter 11: Issuing Orders, The Royal Family of Qin

Countless people remembered the old prince's kindness when he was still alive, and they cried endlessly. If the people of the eighteen continents of the Southern County didn't have the King to defeat the Southern Barbaric Nether Domain, they would still be in the middle of the sea and could be robbed at any time by the Southern Barbaric Army, or they might even become the food of the Southern Barbaric Nether Domain.

Due to the haste of the event, the funeral procession could not be as grand as that of the Emperor's funeral, but the funeral procession formed by the citizens themselves was also a terrifying one. A huge flag of ten thousand citizens was waving in the wind, followed closely by hundreds of Southern County's civil and military officials, and behind them were the unending stream of filial piety. Even when the current emperor died, he would not be able to enjoy such honor.

The Royal Tomb was located in the center of the Nine Flower Mountain, surrounded by two dragons. There was a huge ice cave inside, and it had been made into a huge ice palace to store the coffin. Originally, the ancestor of the Hao family had chosen this place as his burial ground, but because the Feng Shui aura here was too precious, it was impossible for anyone other than the Son of Heaven to enjoy.

During these past few days, Haotian had stayed inside the ice palace to guard the spirit, as if he did not hear anything from the outside world. At this time, the entire Da Xia Empire seemed to be exceptionally calm, and everyone's eyes were focused on the funeral in the south. Other than the people from the Southern County, no one else came to pay their respects, but no one dared to sabotage it.

It was impossible for the current emperor to turn a blind eye to the great treason of the Prince's Mansion, and even more so, he could not allow the Southern County to become a kingdom. Without a day or two, there would be no two lords in the country, and if the king became the master of the Southern County, then how could he, the emperor, continue to exist? So no matter what, the imperial family would not allow the Prince's Mansion to continue to exist.

However, just as the seventh head of the Old Shoulder King passed by, a report was issued from the Mansion of the Prince and delivered to the hands of the dukes of Grand Xia, causing the entire world to shake.

The report said:

"The Prince Mansion of the Shoulder King declared to the world righteously that the previous dynasty was in turmoil, that the country was destroyed, that the kingdom of God was destroyed, that the dynasty had collapsed several times, that the late emperor was aided by his own power to pacify the riots, that the former king was at peace with the nation, that the people of Li were safe and peaceful for a hundred years, and that the people of Li were safe and stable throughout the world. However, the current royal family was weak, treacherous officials led the way, influential officials took power, causing the loyalty and righteousness of the court to be ruined, and good officials died in vain. Now, they were even trying to shake the foundations of the Da Xia Empire, framing their late father for conspiring against the empire, committing crimes and crimes, there was no reason for them to let their late father's illustrious name be sullied by petty people. In order to repay the late emperor's kindness, Haotian wanted to eliminate the traitors, support the royal family, rescue the dawn, and seek the help of the public. "When the time comes, you can carry out the orders as quickly as possible!"

Moreover, this battle should have been between the royal family and the traitors of the Southern County, but now, it had become the Peerless King who, in the name of the diligent king, had launched an army. The meaning of this would be vastly different, but to the people of the world, they would definitely prefer to believe that the Peerless King was wronged. It was obvious that the Emperor had been bewitched by the treacherous officials and had thus framed loyalty.

He was known as the pillar of Grand Xia, and with his citizens in Grand Xia, he would be at ease even if he were to rebel now, who would be willing to believe him? Even if this was the truth, it would be difficult for them to admit it, after all, he was the person they relied on the most and trusted the most.

The current Da Xia Empire had over thirty kings, other than the members of the Zhao Clan, many of them had been bestowed the title of Marquis during the previous dynasty war. The majority of these people were raised by the King Shoulder Emperor, and they had even considered themselves to be the subordinates of the King Shoulder Emperor. Thus, when the royal family's order was sent to them, they immediately responded, leading tens of thousands of troops to attack the capital city.

Although he had been diligent in governing for the past few years, most of his knowledge about the political and economic aspects of the war was completely unknown. With regards to the large scale army that Haotian had mustered in the name of the diligent king, aside from being enraged, he was also at a loss as to what to do. The current Da Xia still retained the attitude of a martial artist from the previous dynasty, and as the emperor, he was not favored by the majority of the people in the world, not to mention that most of the nobles were subordinate of the king.

"Quick!" Summon the old royal uncles from the north! No one can touch my mountains and rivers! No one can take it away! "

In the Imperial study room, the son of the Zhao Family was roaring in anger, but it only made a few eunuchs tremble in fear. It was said that the son of the Heaven was furious and had buried a million corpses, but in the Da Xia Empire, the wrath of the Son of Heaven was nothing compared to the fury of the King of Shoulder Kings.

… ….

In the Southern County, the Prince's Estate stood shoulder to shoulder.

Hearing Xue Xuan, this place was originally one of the residences of Haotian when he was resting. Normally, no one would stay here often, and besides Haotian's personal maid, no one would dare casually step in.

His eyes were slightly closed, and a faint purple aura appeared between his eyebrows, making his handsome face look all the more heroic and threatening. Not far away, a white-robed Tantai Mingyue was quietly standing there, nodding slightly with an expressionless face, and a child of about seven or eight years old was tightly holding onto the corner of her clothes.

"Your father used to talk about you to me." Haotian's deep voice suddenly rang out, breaking the tranquility of the Lotus Pond. He still had his eyes closed and had yet to open them. Tantai Mingyue also nodded and did not raise her head. Only Tantai Mingjing, who was beside him, had a glimmer in her eyes. It was unknown what she was thinking.

"He once said that he would betroth you to me. I heard that you forced yourself to do so with your death, swearing that you would not marry a fool, and that my father would personally speak of it, so I let this matter go. And your name, Tantai Mingyue, has spread throughout the entire Southern Prefecture, even into the capital."

Honestly speaking, aside from this beautiful body, I don't see anything special about you, Tantai Mingyue. If it wasn't for your father having helped my father before, this duke would have killed all of your family members by secretly contacting Madam Zhao and betraying the Prince's Mansion. Now that your father wants to be the crown prince's master in the capital, you should obediently stay in the prince's mansion as a bed maid in the future.
