Within three days, various countries on the mainland sent condolences to their ancestors for their death in battle, and expressed that if the Pujin Empire was in need, they could provide assistance in all aspects.
The emperor looked at these condolences and the words written on them, and sneered. Helping in every aspect, isn¡¯t this a joke? Can your country's actions be hidden from my eyes?
Although I am not satisfied with such hypocritical condolences, the necessary etiquette must still be maintained. The emperor ordered the Minister of Rites, Lin Dong, who had just taken office, to express his gratitude to various countries.
Time passes slowly, and in the days of national mourning, the day for the ancestor¡¯s burial has also arrived. Because when the ancestor died in battle, there were no bones left, so the ancestor's body was replaced with things that the ancestor liked.
Today is a very important day for the Pujin Empire, the day when the ancestor is buried. Whether they are poor people or nobles, they all wear sackcloth and wear filial piety. No matter where you are, you must go out of the city gate to express your high respect and condolences to your ancestors.
In the imperial capital, the funeral procession stretched endlessly, and everyone acted in accordance with the orders. In the early morning before dawn, everyone gathered outside the four city gates, waiting for the ancestor's burial ceremony.
The Imperial Mountain is the mountain range where the empire¡¯s holy warriors live. It is also the only mountain range in the capital. Behind the Emperor Mountain are the tombs of emperors of the Pujin Empire.
When the sun just rose, the ancestor¡¯s burial ceremony began. The huge coffin, carried on the shoulders of one hundred and eight people and guarded by the Imperial Guards, slowly walked out of the palace.
At the same time, when the ancestor¡¯s coffin had just come out of the palace, the people outside the four city gates, supported by the imperial guard legions, slowly approached the capital.
The ancestor¡¯s coffin walked slowly towards the Emperor Mountain. Behind the coffin, the emperor walked on foot wearing hemp and mourning. Behind the emperor is the prince, and behind him are three thousand beauties.
"Further behind are the royal relatives, ministers, and nobles. The last ones were those with prestige, fame, and wealth in the capital. They all wore sackcloth and mourning, and closely followed the burial procession.
The huge funeral procession slowly marched through the streets of the capital. A strong feeling of pain permeated the capital, lingering for a long time, as if mourning this great human being.
"Crack" A thunderous sound shook the heaven and earth. The sky that was bright just now quickly darkened, and the thunder continued to sound. In the end, it started to rain hazy. God is crying, crying for our ancestors.
The ancestor¡¯s original name was Ximen Yan, and he was a four-star holy-level fire magician. He held a magic wand that was 1.23 feet long. The magic wand was inlaid with the crystal core of a fire-based holy-level monster.
A four-star saint whose strength has been recorded has the "Pseudo Heavenly Tribulation of Fire Cloud Tribulation". This move was used to kill the empire's rebellious two-star saint Huangfu Xin when wiping out three major bandit groups.
"The Gate of Hell of Blood Sacrifice", this move was the ancestor's last move before his death. On the battlefield of Warcraft, kill the Purple Golden Rat King, the five-star saint who leads the Warcraft, and there are many powerful Warcraft.
The ancestor lived for more than three hundred years and had a great reputation. During his reign, he used a hundred years to develop the Pujin Empire from a second-rate country in the mainland to the current most powerful country in the mainland.
After abdicating the throne, he lived in the Imperial Mountain and served as the protector of the Pujin Empire. He once solved countless disasters in the empire, and even recruited several powerful holy warriors to protect the empire.
The ancestor has given his entire life to his country and is always thinking about the empire. But such a generation of heroes died in battle. How can the world accept this?
The funeral procession of the poor people outside the four city gates moved forward slowly, like four long white dragons, wandering on the four main roads of the capital, mourning for their ancestors.
On the way to the Emperor's Mountain, four funeral dragons joined the funeral procession coming out of the palace. The team gradually merged together over time and headed towards the Emperor Mountain together.
At this time, Emperor Shenshan is more solemn and sacred than before. The protective cover of the Emperor Mountain has been removed. Under the Emperor Mountain, seven holy warriors stand side by side, with white ribbons tied around their wrists.
They are all holy warriors, and even the emperor's orders cannot affect them. If it weren't for the kindness of their ancestors, they wouldn't be standing at the foot of the Emperor's Mountain, let alone have their wrists tied with white ribbons.
Behind the seven holy-level warriors are the guards who serve the holy-level warriors on Emperor Shen Mountain, numbering twenty. They alsoThere is no linen or mourning, just a white cloth tied around the waist.
The burial and funeral procession soon came into their sight. Twenty people quickly stood on both sides and moved out of the way. The seven saints slowly floated in the air, their eyes always staring at the huge coffin.
"Meet the Emperor." When the team arrived in front of the Emperor Mountain, the twenty people did not kneel down, but only bowed slightly to salute. The seven saint-level warriors did not land, but just nodded slightly.
Looking at the actions of these people, although they were respectful, there was no sign of surrender. The emperor's face flashed with anger, but the proper etiquette must still be maintained.
"Hello, seven adults. On behalf of all the citizens of the empire, I would like to thank you for guarding the Emperor's Mountain and protecting the safety of the empire. You warriors have made great contributions in guarding the Emperor's Mountain, and I will reward you for your merits."
The emperor gave a slight salute to the seven saint-level warriors in the air and spoke. Of course, the last few words were spoken to the twenty people. None of these twenty people were his cronies, they were all personally selected by the ancestor from within the empire.
The seven saints didn¡¯t pay attention to the emperor¡¯s words at all. After nodding, they floated towards the Emperor Mountain. The twenty guardian warriors also did not speak. They straightened up and kept staring at the huge coffin.
Deep sadness permeated the faces of the twenty people, their eyes were slightly red, with a trace of tears flickering quietly. They were all personally trained by their ancestors, and some were raised from childhood. For them, their ancestors were their reborn parents.
"Farewell, ancestor" The loud and deep voice, like the last roar of a wild beast, suddenly sounded, shaking the Emperor Mountain, shocking the team, and frightening those who had ulterior motives.
Under the attention of twenty people, the team slowly moved forward towards the Emperor Mountain again. It's enough to send the funeral procession here. The only people in the burial procession were the emperor, princes, ministers and prominent nobles, while the others stayed here.
On the Emperor's Mountain, in front is where the saints live. In the back mountain are the tombs of emperors of the Pujin Empire. Around the tombs, there are secret legions of the empire guarding them, but after this, they will no longer be here.
The team moved forward quickly and arrived at the Imperial Tomb. The seven saints slowly took over the coffin carried by one hundred warriors, supported the coffin with strong fighting spirit, and buried it amidst wailing sounds.
"Crack" Thunder continued to sound, and streaks of lightning illuminated the tomb. The drizzle gradually became heavier, and finally turned into a downpour, like the god of thunder wailing.
In the afternoon, after eight hours of historical funeral, he was finally buried. The huge coffin slowly landed in the tomb, and then the muddy soil slowly covered the entrance of the tomb, and the ancestor left.
A brand new tombstone is located in front of this brand new emperor¡¯s tomb. "The 108th emperor of the Pujin Empire, the strongest man in the history of the empire, the protector of the empire for more than two hundred years, the tomb of the royal family Ximen Yan."
In the evening, everyone left the back mountain of Emperor Shen Mountain one after another, and the ancestor¡¯s funeral was over. In front of the ancestor's tombstone, only the seven saints and twenty guardian warriors were left.
"Ancestor, dust returns to dust, dust returns to earth. Our agreement with you ends here." After a long time, the hoarse and dry voice of an old man of holy rank sounded, and the seven people walked towards the distance and gradually disappeared. .
"Ancestor's kindness in rebuilding, I will definitely repay you in the next life." The twenty guardian warriors knelt on the ground, kowtowed heavily in front of the tombstone in the pouring rain, and then got up and left .
It rained heavily all night long. When the sky had just cleared up the next day, the emperor's furious roar came from the south study room of the palace.
"What's going on? Can any of you tell me what's going on? It was fine yesterday, but why are five countries declaring war on our empire at the same time today? And the Bright Empire has also started to attack. Tell me this What's going on? Are you ministers of the empire just living for a living?"
Originally, the emperor had just gotten up. When he thought that the five families were about to leave the capital, he walked into the south study room in high spirits. As soon as I walked into the South Study Room, I saw Prime Minister Li waiting here with several officials.
The emperor thought it was nothing big, so he just asked them to wait. After breakfast, he returned here again. Listening to their words, the emperor was almost pissed off from the meal he had just eaten.
The latest military report came from the Empire's Frontier Guard Corps, based on the report. When the ancestor had just been buried yesterday, the five kingdoms bordering the empire and the Bright Empire issued a declaration of war to them.
The War Book clearly states that because of the Pujin Empire's consistently domineering style, the oppressive countries find it difficult to survive. In order to survive and for the future of the kingdom, they declare war on the Pujin Empire at the same time.
This is not what makes the emperor very angry. The news that can make the emperor so angry is the next sentence. For the sake of our ancestors taking care of us during his lifetime, we officially declared war after our ancestors were buried.
What does it mean? Isn't it obvious that when the ancestor was here, he protected them everywhere, but he, the emperor, suppressed them everywhere. Now that the ancestor is dead, you, the emperor, will accept our declaration of war.
"Your Majesty, this is the latest war report we just received this morning. Two kingdoms bordering our empire in the northeast, two kingdoms bordering on the southeast, and one kingdom bordering on the east have declared war on us at the same time."
"These countries are all small kingdoms with very limited military strength. Even if they make trouble, it won't cause any big trouble. What we need to pay attention to is the declaration of war by the Bright Empire."
"The Bright Empire borders our empire to the east and has been against our empire for many years. Although no major disputes have occurred, small disputes have occurred from time to time. Now the Bright Empire is declaring war on our empire. This has already happened. It shows that they are already prepared, and we need to prepare quickly."
Li Qiang looked at the emperor's furious face. Although he didn't say anything, he knew in his heart why the emperor was so angry. Listening to the minister's latest battle report, Li Qiang also felt worried and quickly stood up and said.
"Your Majesty, the Bright Empire is one of the major empires on the mainland, and its strength cannot be underestimated. Although we are the most powerful country, we really need to find a way quickly to deal with the attacks of so many countries at once. ah."
"Hmph They are just a bunch of autumn grasshoppers. They can't jump around for a few days. Prime Minister Li, pass on my decree and order the Zhan family, Wang family and Ai family to take up their posts without any mistakes." The emperor snorted softly and said in a low voice. said.
"Yes, Your Majesty, I will take care of it now." Li Qiang bowed and left. Just as he turned to leave, the Emperor spoke again. "Prime Minister Li, we need to keep some hostages to prevent them from escaping. You should know what to do."
"I know, Your Majesty, please rest assured, I will not let you down." Listening to the Emperor's words, even Li Qiang's body trembled slightly. One moment, they were relying on others to guard the border, and the next moment, they were leaving hostages to prevent escape.
This time, Li Qiang did not go there in person, but ordered someone to convey the emperor's will. The Zhan family, Ai family and Wang family all received notices of taking office almost at the same time, but this notice made people somewhat angry.
The order is very simple, let them immediately lead their legion to their own protection range. They can use all flying monsters on the way. They must reach the border in the shortest possible time and arrange defense matters.
At the same time, when they left, all their family members stayed in the capital and were not allowed to follow them. This order sounds good, but if you think about it carefully, it means leaving a so-called hostage.
"Wu Wen, after we leave, all the hidden killings will be led by the heads of the Feis family and the Lin Dong family. We must protect the safety of the five families. If anything goes wrong, all members of your hidden killing team will come forward to see you."
After seeing off the guards who conveyed the order, Zhan Tian, ??Wang Hong and Ai Hu handed Xue Bin to them and gave Xue Bin the last order before they left.
"Three family heads, please rest assured that the hidden killing will definitely protect the five families. If you want to harm the five families, you must first step on the corpses of hundreds of people who have been killed by me, otherwise you will never be able to do it."
Xue Bin also knew the order. After understanding the power of it, he immediately knelt down on one knee and issued his military order to Zhan Tian and the others. The five families will never suffer any casualties due to the hidden killing. After listening to Xue Bin's military order, the three legion commanders immediately went to their legion jurisdictions and led their legions to their posts immediately to protect the border.
