Chapter 429: The Ruler Comes
In the world where Li Chunqiu just left, the old village chief has been waiting in Chang'an City for dozens of days.
In fact, it is not a difficult thing to wait in Chang'an.
But when time carries the fate of an empire and when people bear the responsibilities of an empire, time becomes particularly enduring.
The villagers of the Li family are of the royal bloodline. They are the first candidate to take on the mission of the empire. Although they have not really taken charge of the Kaiyuan Dynasty, the old village chief still feels that he should do his part.
Because this bloodline is constant, the disputes between ancestors are the disputes between ancestors, as descendants, they still have to bear this responsibility.
So the old village chief took over the authority in Chang'an City. He listened to the opinions of Prime Minister Du Chenxue and blocked Chang'an on the grounds that Chang'an assassin had not been completed. This effectively curbed the spread of the news and completely sealed the royal family affairs of the Kaiyuan Dynasty in Chang'an City.
The warehouse was then opened to make up for the food shortage in Chang'an City. Then, under the order of Emperor Kaiyuan, the order of the four directions was ordered to be handed over to the outside of Chang'an City, and no one was allowed to enter Chang'an City.
Of course, these memorials were not handled by the old village chief, but by Du Chenxue, the real prime minister.
After all, the old village chief is naturally the only way to deal with other matters, but he is really not able to handle the government affairs.
"Brother Mu Bai, how long will it take?" Du Chenxue couldn't help but ask. Such things can be delayed for a while, but not for a lifetime.
"Wait a little longer." The old village chief could only say this, because he didn't know when and how that senior would take charge of the Kaiyuan Dynasty.
"It's not that I don't want to wait, but... I'm almost unable to hide it."
Du Chenxue looked worried, and she seemed to be several years old. Each person was responsible for the responsibility of a country. If there were few mistakes, there would be danger of overthrow.
Du Chenxue has never done such a thing in her life. She is too tired, not just the physical fatigue, but this fatigue penetrates into the muscles and bones, almost following her like a shadow.
"Now the memorials of all counties and states are asking when Chang'an will be able to lift the blockade. It said that since the Kaiyuan Emperor, the Kaiyuan Dynasty has never been locked down like this, and the capital has been sealed."
"If there are another three or five days, I'm afraid even the soldiers on the border will be filled with people's hearts."
Du Chenxue looked at the old village chief with expectant eyes. He had already walked all the way and could only look forward to the old village chief.
He had even done it. If no one took over again later, he would help the old village chief to the throne. With the strength of Lijia Village, it was hard to say that he could really pacify the world.
However, a few tough battles are inevitable, but this is also the greatest protection of the people of the Kaiyuan Dynasty.
"It should be soon, wait!"
All the old village chief could do at this time was waiting, and he didn't know when this would end.
The old village chief now regrets a little, why didn’t he ask too much: When will he come?
Unfortunately, there is no regret medicine in the world to sell.
"Can't wait any longer, Brother Mu Bai, if there is still no news for another three days, then..."
When Du Chenxue said this, his expression became solemn. He gave a standard courtesy of his subjects and said:
"Please ascend the throne!"
"Ascend the throne?" The old village chief was shocked by Du Chenxue's actions and quickly stood up.
"This is three days, it will be within three days."
The old village chief suddenly felt a little panicked. He had never thought about becoming an emperor. He also knew what level he had. Being an emperor shouldn't have been done by him, an old village farmer.
Can he manage a good job of a dynasty as big as the Kaiyuan Dynasty?
Just kidding, it's already very hard for him to manage a village.
Emperor, it is impossible, absolutely impossible, isn't this a joke?
Just when the old village chief was frowning, a light suddenly lit up outside Chang'an City, illuminating the entire city like daylight.
The old village chief suddenly seemed to have a premonition. He suddenly turned his head, his eyes seemed to see something through the cold tiles of the prime minister's mansion.
The old village chief was surprised to Du Chenxue in the next moment:
"It seems like it will take less than three days."
"Come?"
Du Chenxue didn't know what she should be in the mood. In fact, he instinctively hoped that the old village chief would be the emperor. After all, compared to a person who didn't know the depth of the situation, it would be better to let the old village chief come.
At least Du Chenxue knew what kind of character the old village chief was, and the old village chief was also a descendant of the Kaiyuan royal family.
Unfortunately, the old village chief was unwilling to do so.
"Maybe this is fate!"
Du Chenxue suddenly felt that being an emperor was ultimately based on his life. After all, he didn't want to be the throne when he was placed in front of him.
"What did you say?"
The old village chief looked at Du Chenxue who was muttering with his head down and said in confusion.
"Ah? It's nothing. Since we're here, let's go and take it. If there is a conflict, it will be bad."
After Du Chenxue finished speaking, she pulled the old village chief and walked out of the city.
………
Outside Chang'an City, no one has ever stepped out of the city gate for more than a month, and the path is already deserted.
Weeds grow on the earth, and a city seems to be so deserted.
Under the darkness, a light suddenly lit up in the silence, as if there was a sun suddenly in the sky, and the earth was illuminated in an instant, as if it was day.
At this time, the azure blue light invaded the earth, and the sizzling arc lit up and then disappeared invisible.
The defenders on the city wall were still veterans from Lingnan. Du Chenxue recruited them back and explained the situation.
As a team that once guarded the border, the generals in Lingnan knew best what it would look like if the Kaiyuan Dynasty collapsed. All peace was supported by strength, and all prosperity was exchanged for the soldiers guarded the border with time and lives.
Once the Kaiyuan Dynasty collapses, how many people will die? This is unimaginable.
People in peacetime can never imagine a period of turmoil.
So the general stayed, and he wanted to defend Kaiyuan and his own country.
"what happened?"
The general walked up to the wall and saw the blue light shining on the earth, which almost made him unable to open his eyes. It seemed that there was an invisible power between heaven and earth gathering outside Chang'an City.
"I don't know, there was a strange phenomenon outside the city."
"Under the strong light, I can't see anything clearly."
"Damn it!" the general cursed in a low voice. Chang'an must be unable to blockade this kind of vision at this time.
"Be prepared for the garrison first and let everyone cheer him up."
Just as this Chang'an guardian was teaching, the light on the earth seemed to expand to infinity in an instant, encompassing the entire Chang'an City.
Then the next moment, the light instantly contracted, and all the light instantly turned into nothingness.
