Chapter 125 Is The Little Emperor The Real Boss?
Chapter 125 Is The Little Emperor The Real Boss?
White Snake Miss furrowed her brows, feeling that repaying kindness did not necessarily require offering oneself...
"Just now, listening to what he said, he should also be a talented scholar who has not been recognized, facing such unfortunate events against his will. We are heading to the Sun-Moon Dynasty, why not take him along, have the young emperor appoint him an official, so he can showcase his talents."
"I won't take him... he stinks... Sister, you figure it out yourself."
The woman in green covered her nose and mouth, a burst of green smoke vanished, while the woman in white waved her hand, sending a huge stream of water rushing forward.
Mr. Zhu was already dead, his body washed aside, and Xu Xuan, who had been knocked unconscious underneath, woke up groggily from the cold water. As he raised his head, he saw a white-robed fairy not far away, although veiled, her beauty akin to a Celestial Immortal was evident.
"Thank you, Fairy, for saving me..."
Xu Xuan adjusted his crimson robe and his face, now smeared by water, looked quite disheveled, making him feel somewhat embarrassed in front of this fairy.
The back door was even hotter, his face burning...
"I intend to go to the Sun-Moon Dynasty, would you like to come along?"
"Sun-Moon Dynasty... I'm willing!"
In his heart, Xu Xuan had already labeled the Great Xia Dynasty with a series of tags: a tyrant ruler, treacherous officials, evil people, a trio of the downfall of the Great Xia Dynasty!
He wanted to go to the Sun-Moon Dynasty to fulfill his ambitions, overthrow the Great Xia! Make them pay for their crimes!
"Mm..."
The white-robed fairy frowned, seeming to ponder for a moment, then a white ribbon flew out of her hand, wrapping around Xu Xuan, turning him into a cocoon in an instant, leaving only his head exposed to prevent suffocation. She then flew up, lifting Xu Xuan like a helicopter, soaring towards the Sun-Moon Dynasty.
Sun-Moon Dynasty
Recently, everything seemed to be going wrong, especially for the Empress Dowager.
The court was on the verge of collapse, with the Duan Yi's continuous conquests, and her hope, Murong Yan, was actually defiled by Qin Tianjiao!
This matter had become a laughingstock in the Sun-Moon Dynasty, and the Cloud Firmament Heavenly Palace's prestige was in tatters. Not to mention the two deaths, Murong Yan was even stripped of her position as the Saintess and sent to the back mountain for reflection!
Rumors spread among the common people that the Empress Dowager Murong Yi was a demoness.
Not only was she accused of immoral behavior and keeping thousands of lovers, but also of causing the death of the late emperor, controlling the court, and the Murong family was now in the spotlight!
All of this left the Empress Dowager exhausted. In such a vast empire, there was not a single person to share her burdens...
The young emperor was still immersed in his animal kingdom, except for two old eunuchs, no one else was allowed in.
"Your Majesty, the envoys of the Monster Race, Venerable White Snake and Venerable Green Snake, have arrived..." the old eunuch bowed.
"Mm... Please, bring them in quickly."
Although still young, the young emperor's eyes were full of wisdom, far from resembling a clueless ruler who only sought pleasure.
Soon, the two individuals known as Venerable White Snake and Venerable Green Snake entered, the same ones who had rescued Xu Xuan.
The two bowed slightly, "Greetings, Your Majesty."
"Venerables, please dispense with formalities, I must thank you." The young emperor's eyes sparkled upon seeing them.
Since childhood, he had been interested in animals, which had brought him a great opportunity. When he was young, he saved an injured little fox, who turned out to be the daughter of the Nine-Tailed Monster Sovereign of the Monster Race.
In the Monster Race, the position of a Monster Sovereign was similar to that of a human Saint Lord, but the upper echelons of the Monster Race naturally suppressed the lower bloodlines. The authority and rule of a Monster Sovereign in the Monster Race far exceeded that of a Saint Lord, akin to a combination of a Saint Lord and an Emperor.
The Monster Race had three Monster Sovereigns, and the Nine-Tailed Monster Sovereign was one of them. After the little fox recovered, in gratitude, she gave him a token and promised to help him once.
This led to the young emperor secretly establishing a zoo as a cover, while actually establishing contact with the Monster Race, seeking their help to eliminate the control of the Empress Dowager's lineage over the court and the Cloud Firmament Heavenly Palace's control over the Sun-Moon Dynasty!
Monster Race lived north of the barbarians, engaged in battles for thousands of years, suffering casualties and inhabiting unfavorable territories.
Finding a new habitat in the Sun-Moon Dynasty would benefit both the Monster Race and the Sun-Moon Dynasty, thus a strategic cooperation was formed!
While the young emperor developed his power in secret, he let the Empress Dowager bear the brunt of the attack, showcasing his despicable artistry to the fullest.
Truly a filial and cunning eldest son!
He was not worried that the Monster Race could control the Sun-Moon Dynasty like the Cloud Firmament Heavenly Palace. Without his protection and concealment, once the Monster Race was exposed, they would face a united human retaliation!
Now, with the Empress Dowager representing the Murong family and the Cloud Firmament Heavenly Palace's prestige greatly diminished, the country was in dire straits, providing him with a perfect opportunity to fish in troubled waters.
This led to the arrival of Venerable White Snake and Venerable Green Snake, both of Self-Liberation Realm strength, but due to the immense physical strength of the Monster Race, their combat power at the same realm was even more formidable than that of humans, excluding exceptional cases.
White Snake and Green Snake had a favorable impression of the young emperor, and both sides sat down to discuss strategies.
Their main task was to ensure the young emperor's safety and carry out specific targeted elimination missions.
The rest was up to the young emperor to handle himself. Finally, White Snake recommended Xu Xuan to the young emperor.
"Your Majesty, I see great talent in him, with ambitions but nowhere to showcase them, so I brought him here. Your Majesty, you may test him. If satisfied, you can keep him to serve you. If not, I will find him another way out." White Snake smiled as she spoke.
With White Snake's words, the young emperor naturally understood the significance of this person's relationship with White Snake.
"A person recommended by Venerable White Snake must be a talented individual. Where is he?" The young emperor was ready to owe White Snake a favor without hesitation.
Although he did not involve himself in court affairs, arranging a person was quite simple.
"He is at the palace gate."
The young emperor waved his hand, and the old eunuch understood, going out and soon bringing Xu Xuan in.
Xu Xuan was excited!
After so many years in the Great Xia Dynasty, he had never been summoned by the empress!
"Xu Xuan pays respects to Your Majesty!"
Xu Xuan knelt directly in front of the young emperor, knocking his head three times resoundingly!
"Please rise quickly, you are brought here by Venerable White Snake, from now on, you are one of us. May I ask, who are you, Brother Xu?"
"Your Majesty, I am a man of the Great Xia Dynasty, named Xu Xuan, styled Hanwen. I am the top disciple of the Jixia Academy, and my family ancestor was the Grand Libationer of the Great Xia Dynasty..."
"Oh? A scion of a noble family... But with your status, how did you come to the Sun-Moon Dynasty?" The young emperor suddenly became interested.
At this mention, tears of humiliation welled up in Xu Xuan's eyes...
"A tyrant ruler is in power, treacherous officials run amok! I was persecuted by Qin Tianjiao, then abducted to the home of evil people... I... I have suffered greatly..."
Xu Xuan cried bitterly! The experiences of being attacked by two father-daughter pairs weighing three to four hundred catties each had caused him countless nightmares!
"Ah, it seems the days of the Great Xia Dynasty are numbered..." the old eunuch said with lowered eyes and a submissive tone.
"Brother Xu knows more about the Great Xia Dynasty than we do, care to share?"
Although somewhat arrogant, Xu Xuan had knowledge, having been invited by the Southern Ping County Princess to participate in a poetry gathering.
His practical skills were unknown, but his theoretical knowledge was extensive, influenced by what he had heard from his grandfather. Especially the erosion of royal power by aristocratic families struck a chord with the young emperor! After a few words, the young emperor was overjoyed!
Truly a capable minister for governing!
This Xu Xuan had transformed into a prominent figure by the young emperor's side!
