Chapter 243 The Second Emperor!
"Well, it's fate. Don't worry, you won't die!"
Hearing what Zhou Yang said, the old eunuch breathed a sigh of relief, but his back was already wet with sweat.
"Master Zhang, start organizing your defenses!"
Zhou Yang and Xiao Tiance were wandering around the palace boredly.
After daybreak, the ministers in the court realized that the sky had changed overnight, and now two immortal masters controlled the court.
After taking control of the court, Zhang Zhongquan organized troops to defend because the rebels were about to arrive.
Two days later, the rebels arrived outside the city.
Looking at the army of 200,000, there were 100,000 defenders in the city.
Under normal circumstances, 200,000 troops are not enough to deal with the 100,000 defenders with city walls. Under normal circumstances, at least four times the number of troops is needed to break the city.
Next, Zhang Zhongquan did not ask Zhou Yang and Xiao Tiance to take action, but just stayed behind closed doors and did not fight.
He knew that this was a year of famine, and the rebels didn't have much food. If the 200,000-strong army stayed like this, it would probably collapse in less than ten days.
The rebels attacked after a day's rest, but in vain.
In the following days, the attacks became larger and larger in scale and frequency. The rebels lost between 20 and 30 thousand people but were unable to breach the city wall.
By the fifth day, the rebels' momentum dropped significantly. By the seventh day, they had no fighting spirit, and the attacks they launched were just for show.
By the eighth day, they were no longer even showing off, and some soldiers even began to flee.
On the ninth day, the scale of the rout was huge, and the rebel supervisory team began to capture the fleeing soldiers. On the tenth day, the rebels mutinied, beheaded the rebel leader, and then claimed credit for the imperial court.
Only then did the rebels know that someone had arrived first and killed the emperor.
A war that engulfed this place of exile disappeared inexplicably.
From early spring to now, nearly a year has caused millions of people to be displaced and hundreds of thousands to freeze and starve to death.
On the third day after the rebellion subsided, the women of Zhou Yang and Xiao Tiance also began to determine their residences.
At this time, the old eunuch had trouble arranging accommodation for the four women.
Because there are two immortal masters and four women, who should live in the palace of the harem master? This is a question.
Unfortunately, both Xia He and Dong Mei are interested in the former queen's palace.
"Sister Xia He, what a coincidence, I arrived first. I'll come and sit here often from now on!"
Dongmei asked the little eunuch to send her luggage inside.
Xia He frowned slightly at this time and didn't say much, so he said to the old eunuch: "Where did the Queen Mother live before? Send me over there!"
The old eunuch quickly took him to the old queen's residence.
As an old man in the palace, the old eunuch knew that the conflict between the two had ended today.
However, Zhou Yang and Xiao Tiance did not participate in this. They casually designated their own residences in the palace and then began to practice.
"Mortal life is getting more and more boring!"
Xiao Tiance said suddenly, obviously intending to leave. When Zhou Yang heard this, he felt very happy, probably because he had had enough fun.
"yes!"
Zhou Yang also quickly agreed.
"But I want to see what are these guys going to do next?"
Xiao Tiance now sees everything in the world from God's perspective.
"Already starting to choose sides!"
Zhou Yang has also been paying attention these days and found that Chunlan, Xiahe, Qiuju, and Dongmei no longer talk much.
The reason is that the imperial court now honors Zhou Yang and Xiao Tiance as the second emperor. That is, if there are two emperors in this country, then there will be two queens.
The civil and military officials below also chose sides.
"Lets see!"
In the days that followed, Zhou Yang and Xiao Tiance stayed behind closed doors and did not participate in court meetings. The decision was basically made by the cabinet and the four women.
However, Xia He and Dong Mei's opinions often go to the left and are difficult to reconcile.
Scenes of equality and mutual love like those in small villages can no longer be seen.
At that time, one person would light the fire and the other would cook, and the cooperation was intimate.
Of course, it's still within control now, after all, the Second Emperor hasn't spoken yet.
And it is impossible for them to meet the second emperor, because these two are immortal masters and usually practice.
A year later, the four women each adopted a boy, both of their own family blood.
After that, the fight between the four people became more intense.
Fortunately, these fighting caves are limited to the court. As long as there is no war, the people can still live their own lives.
Zhou Yang also wanted to see how long the new court could last.
Fortunately, he doesn't have to worry about his cultivation for the time being. He has refined his demon cultivation three times in the past two years.
Now he has refined his demon cultivation five times, and after four more refinements, he will be ready to break through in four years.
Not surprisingly, he will make a breakthrough here.
However, this is about to reveal his trump card.
However, his guard against Xiao Tiance was also lowered, after all, Xiao Tiance did not avoid him in his practice.
Three years have passed like this, and Zhou Yang's demon cultivation is about to be refined. Once completed, it is impossible for him to continue to waste time here.
In addition, the fighting in the court became more and more intense, and the two camps in the harem basically had no contact with each other.
Moreover, Xia He and Dongmei established themselves as queens, and Chunlan and Qiuju became imperial concubines.
In the end, they had major differences on the issue of establishing a reserve.
Logically speaking, a country has only one emperor and one prince. But now that there are two emperors, should we establish two princes?
But this is something that has never happened before. They cannot see the second emperor, and the problem can only be solved by themselves.
Another year passed, and not only was the issue of establishing the crown prince unresolved, but both Chunlan and Qiu Ju wanted their children to become crown princes.
As a result, the two factions split into four factions, and the fighting became increasingly fierce.
Everyone knows that the issue of establishing a heirloom will not be left alone forever. After all, the four women in the harem are ordinary people with limited life spans. After a few decades, they will definitely return to dust and dust.
Another year passed, and the conflict between the four people became obvious. The four women in the harem each issued their own political decrees, and different political decrees restrained and conflicted with each other.
Zhang Zhongquan also had a headache at this time. As a general with real power, he became the target of four women in the harem.
But it was a mistake to follow anyone, so he voluntarily gave up his position as a first-class military attache and went to the palace of Zhou Yang and Xiao Tiance to stand guard. In return, he took care of the two old horses and the calf, and became a veritable horse officer.
After Zhang Zhongquan left, his military power was also divided, especially the defense of the capital had fallen into the hands of the four women in the harem.
The four of them seem to be in balance again!
One summer night a month later.
Chunlan is eating iced bird's nest to relieve the heat in the harem.
I just finished one bowl and I felt sick!
Immediately, a mouthful of blood spurted out.
When the maid next to her saw this, her face turned pale with fright.
"Physician, call the physician quickly!"
Poor Chunlan only felt like her stomach was churning with knives, and life was worse than death!
At the same time, a large number of forbidden troops in the palace began to mobilize!
