Chapter 245: Jiuding's Aspiration

The black dark clouds finally covered the entire Luo City. Although it was broad daylight, it made people feel extremely depressed. When Ji Mo dragged his heavy steps into Zichen Palace, he did not think about how to deal with the unreasonable demands made by the Qin people.

Even the stupidest person should understand now that the Qin State was undoubtedly the driving force behind the sudden attack of these little princes led by Zhongshan Hou. In connection with what they have done all the time, we can no longer ask what they want to achieve this time.

Just now, after the Qin envoy entered the city, he asked the emperor to summon him with a very arrogant and rude attitude to submit letters from the King of Qin in person. Even all the imperial guards were staring at him with very angry eyes, the envoy who had only two followers had no fear at all.

"As a prince, isn't Qin's so unreasonable to the emperor? How should people in the world view him!"

Ji Mo looked at the envoy calmly and tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart. However, the other party just bowed to him and replied indifferently.

"Mr. Mo said this! The princes besieged Luocheng, and the king who had been in danger for hundreds of years was in danger. The Qin King ordered the Qin soldiers to come here to relieve the danger for the emperor. How could it be unreasonable? Haha!"

"Since that's the case, let's ask the Qin army to disperse all the princes' troops!"

"Well, don't worry. The Qin soldiers are a righteous army! The principles of the world require a right and wrong... I heard that there is a reason why the princes' army rose up in anger! If we don't ask clearly, we can't act rashly."

The special envoy of the King of Qin was named Hu You, who served as the chief minister. Although he was not an important minister, he was as cunning as an old fox. The reason why the King of Qin sent him this time was because he was attracted by this.

Ji Mo wanted to curse "shameless"! But he finally held back again. Under the current situation, any unnecessary anger is useless. He snorted coldly, asking them to wait outside the palace first, and then he walked into Zichen Palace by himself.

Hu You didn't care about the coldness he was being received. He looked at Ji Mo's back hidden behind the palace and felt secretly proud. Tens of thousands of Qin troops were at the city, and the little princes obeyed the orders. If the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty did not know the best, he believed that the Qin prince who was in the army would not be patient to wait for a long time.

The King of Qin was not interested in Luocheng. This small land was not necessary for the time being. The thing he had coveted for a long time was the Nine Cauldrons hidden in the altar of the Great Zhou Dynasty. This time, the King of Qin had already issued a death order to the general Wang Feng. No matter what the price he paid or what method he used, he had to transport the Nine Cauldrons back to Qin.

If the original military plan was followed, the Qin army should proceed step by step. When the princes forced the Great Zhou royal family to a desperate situation, it would not be too late for them to take action. After all, the military power in Luocheng was not enough to fight against the Qin army. Destroying this broken dynasty was just a breeze. If unnecessary infamy could be avoided, of course it would be the best.

However, Mu Xueqing's crushing defeat in Qi State had to make Qin King Nie Feng change his strategy and directly accelerate the pace of Qin's participation in the Battle of Luocheng. Perhaps, the King of Qin and his ministers had already had a foresight that the strong rise of Zhao State might be inevitable. Since he was destined to face such a powerful opponent, it is crucial to take the lead in the overall situation of the world and gain the initiative.

Hu You, the chief doctor who accepted the Qin King's instructions before leaving, understood the key point very well. He was even more aware that if he successfully completed this mission, he would definitely become the King of Qin's confidant. His important position in the future royal court is self-evident.

The Qin King's special envoy, who was the follower of Gou Mie Execution, leisurely admired the brilliant building complex of Zichen Palace. Although he was not a brave man, he was not worried about safety at all. The two followers around him were full of evil light and were always alert to the surroundings. They were all masters, and no accident would be enough to protect him from safety. What's more, there were army gathering outside the city, and no one in the city dared to act rashly.

As for the attitude of the Great Zhou royal family, he was not worried. If what was expected was good, he would soon be summoned by the Emperor of Zhou. At this time, if they still couldn't see the form clearly, they would really not know the current affairs.

Sure enough, half an hour later, the palace guards came out and Xuan summoned the envoys of the King of Qin into the interior. Hu You entered proudly, crossing the long corridor. The palace was full of shadows. Soon after, he entered the main hall at the end.

The so-called "a centipede insect dies without being stiff." Although the Great Zhou Dynasty was in name only, the great dignity in Zichen Palace was still retained. Etiquette officials guided Hu You to the hall and let him stand in the designated position. Then, under the gaze of several ministers of the royal court who rushed over after hearing the news, the Qin envoy raised his head and saw the figure of the Great Zhou emperor.

The legendary emperor, lying on the wide dragon throne, looked very decadent. He was already very old and a little far away. Although he couldn't see his face clearly, a decadent aura came faintly, making people invisibly doubt whether the emperor who was high above was still a living person?

This was of course the evil thought in Hu You's heart. Even if Emperor Zhou had a breath left, he still represented the last trace of the long-standing dynasty. Moreover, his idea was obviously redundant. After finishing the meeting and handing over the memorial written by the King of Qin, he soon heard the emperor's voice.

"Where is the place where the King of Qin is seeking the throne... Haha! Brother Wang, take a good look."

The attendant respectfully took the book from the desk. Emperor Ji Yuan just took a look and signaled him to take it over and hand it over to Ji Mo.

The more than ten nobles below were silent. At this point, they were all helpless. Who doesn’t understand the meaning of the King of Qin? What other ways can they imagine besides being full of fear? Perhaps, the only hope now can only be placed on Ji Mo.

Although he had guessed this result long ago, after reading the unruly words written by King Nie Feng of Qin, Ji Mo still felt both sad and angry.

According to legend, the treasures secretly hidden by the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty are one of the nine tripods and the other is the map of mountains, rivers and the country. These two treasures that are related to the luck of the world are all in Zichen Palace in Luocheng, Zhongzhou.

Hundreds of years ago, the former king collected iron from the nine states in the world, cast treasure tripods, carved mountains, rivers, and geographical relics, and then hid them in the altar of the country, thinking that they were the treasure of the country and the country. It is said that the Nine Tripods hide a huge secret of the universe and the cycle of reincarnation, which was only passed down by the emperors of all generations, and the outside world does not know it.

However, for hundreds of years, legends have only been legends. There are very few people outside the world who can see the true appearance of the Nine Cauldron with their own eyes, almost no one. So later, whether there are Nine Cauldrons in the royal family has become an indeterminate thing.

Of course, that was just a common debate among ordinary people. For the princes in all parts of the world, they certainly believed that the nine tripods cast by the previous kings had always been there. Because they had heard of the magic of the nine tripods from their ancestors. And they believed even more that from the records above, they could calculate the great fortunes from the sky who replaced the Zhou royal family! As long as the princes who had ambitions in this regard, their greatest wish was almost to personally take a look at what was recorded on them.

Such a wish, as the Zhou royal family declined day by day, has become a reality that is about to be realized. Perhaps, whoever has the most courage and the strongest strength will be the most likely to get the Nine Cauldrons first. Therefore, the King of Qin, who has always been obsessed with this matter, can finally no longer bear it. This goal must be realized in his life!

"The Nine Cauldrons are in the Altar of the World. Each of these magical artifacts weighs ten thousand pounds. Can the King of Qin be confident that he can move it?"

Ji Mo stood in front of the Nine Dragons throne, and he used his body to block the cold wind blowing from outside the hall gate, and also blocked the invisible swords outside the city. If the dynasty had really reached the end of the world, he would block the front of his brother and bury the country for him first.

"My Great Qin army is powerful and invincible in the world! All soldiers are loyal to His Highness the King of Qin. They can move mountains and spread the sea... Although the Nine Cauldrons are heavy, they are just a blink of an eye! What's more, Your Majesty and Mr. Mo should not misunderstand. The King of Qin only considers that the world is in chaos. If the Nine Cauldrons are damaged, it would be bad. Therefore, he kindly wants to save the royal family. Alas! Although the people in the world may not understand the beauty of the King of Qin, they hope that Your Majesty and Mr. Mo can understand!"

Hu You did not give the wrong name, and the foolishness that was not blushed and his heart was not beating was spoken seriously. If it were another occasion, it would almost make people believe it. The people in the hall looked at each other in a row, and the Qin envoy was bound to be heard, and the fool could hear it. They looked at Ji Mo with frustration on their faces, not knowing how he should answer.

Ji Mo looked back at Emperor Ji Yuan. There was no expression on his old wrinkled face. Perhaps, in his few days, the final outcome of this dynasty seemed to have nothing to do with him anymore. Since that is the case, there is no need for any compromise or perfunctory treatment!

"You go! Go back and tell the King of Qin that the Nine Dings should survive and perish with the Great Zhou country. The day when Luocheng fell is the time when the Nine Dings perish in the world."
