C209 The King
"What I want to say next is the national policy of our Cloud Sea Country. We, the Cloud Sea Country, have decided to pledge our allegiance to the Cloud Rising Country and become its vassal state." Wang Xiuwen said.
This shocking news caused the entire scene to explode once again. Faced with this sudden situation, everyone was at a loss for what to do.
After saying that, Wang Xiuwen walked down from the throne and looked at Wang Yuncheng. Seeing the look in his father's eyes, Wang Yuncheng could only clench his teeth and step forward. Although he had never thought of taking over the throne like this, there was a need for someone to step forward.
"Ministers, I know that everyone is shocked by the news of my father suddenly giving up his throne. However, I also hope that after this, all of you can assist me and make Cloud Sea Country more prosperous and prosperous." Wang Yuncheng said.
"Crown Prince, I have an objection. This matter is too sudden. I think there is something fishy about this matter. His Majesty is still in his prime. Crown Prince, may I ask why there was no precursor to this matter? I think there is a need to investigate. " At this moment, a minister stepped forward and spoke.
"Your Majesty, this official thinks that it's inappropriate for Cloud Sea Country to submit to Cloud Rising Country just like that. Once the Cloud Sea Country is merged, it will definitely be devoured by the Cloud Rising Country. This is definitely not the right thing to do. " Another person stood out and said.
At this moment, even more people stood out. Regarding the matter of abdication and submitting to Cloud Sea Country, they were in a deadlock. Wang Yuncheng frowned as he watched this scene.
Chu Tian and the others also stood aside and watched quietly. After all, this was a family matter of the Cloud Sea Country. They had no reason to interfere. At this time, Wang Xiuwen was also watching this scene calmly. Chu Tian smiled.
"You are really making things difficult for the Crown Prince. I'm afraid this situation will not end so easily." Chu Tian said.
"So what? If he doesn't even have this bit of ability, how can I trust him with the future of Cloud Sea Country?" Wang Xiuwen said.
At this moment, just as everyone was in a stalemate, Wang Yuncheng frowned.
"You are trying to create something, as subjects, you should share the burden of the king. Now, you are questioning the king, and this is your way of serving the king." Wang Yuncheng said.
His voice had joined his Divine Ability Stage cultivation base. The scene was shocked for a moment, but soon after, someone stood out. Obviously, they weren't satisfied with Wang Yuncheng's ascension.
"As a wise subject, I should be supervising the king. Could it be that the Crown Prince is preparing to be a tyrant?" A middle-aged man said.
Wang Yuncheng glanced at the latter, then narrowed his eyes slightly.
"I remember you are the assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites." Wang Yuncheng said.
"Really!" The middle-aged man straightened his back and said.
"How dare you, the assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites, offend your superiors? You are disloyal. Men, arrest him and imprison him in the imperial prison. He will be stripped of his position as the assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites. The deputy minister will take up the vacant position." Wang Yuncheng said.
At this moment, the guards outside the door immediately walked in and escorted the middle-aged man out. Everyone was surprised to see what Wang Yuncheng did. The Assistant Minister of Rites was also quite shocked.
They originally thought that Wang Yuncheng had just succeeded the throne and could not do anything to them, but they did not expect the latter to be so tough. He was instantly sentenced to prison.
"Your Majesty, this old official has followed you for many years. How can you allow the Crown Prince to be so willful?" The Assistant Minister of Rites shouted anxiously. His gaze also turned towards Wang Xiuwen.
"I have already said that I have already abdicated from the throne and no longer ask about political matters. All political matters are now left to my son to handle." Wang Xiuwen said.
Hearing this, the civil and military officials finally woke up. They looked at Wang Yuncheng in front of them and their expressions became more serious. Wang Xiuwen was really preparing to let the Crown Prince succeed the throne. If they dared to disobey him again... The fate of the Assistant Minister of Rites would be their alarm. It would be useless to rely on his seniority as an old official.
"Since none of you have any objections, I hereby declare the official start of the court session." Wang Yuncheng said. At this time, he was already sitting on the throne.
After killing the chicken to warn the monkeys, the civil and military officials did not dare to have any objections. Everyone was in the process of starting a pilgrimage. The fact that Wang Yuncheng had taken the throne had already been decided.
After that, they discussed the matter of cooperating with Cloud Rising Country, because there was already a plan to kill the chicken to warn the monkeys. Now, no one dared to disobey Wang Yuncheng, and the decision to make Cloud Sea Country submit to Cloud Rising Country was actually approved by most of them.
The current strength of Cloud Rising Country was just too powerful. It wouldn't do them any good to oppose such a huge power. If Cloud Rising Country really wanted to make a move, they were afraid that their Cloud Sea Country would be destroyed in an instant.
"Princess Qing Lianer, my country has caused you so much trouble. This kind of mistake makes my country feel guilty. Therefore, I would like to invite Princess Qing Lianer to stay in my Cloud Sea Country for a while longer. Let my Cloud Sea Country make up for this mistake. " Wang Yuncheng said to Qing Lianer.
Qing Lianer also walked forward after hearing this.
"I am naturally willing to stay in your country temporarily because of the invitation of His Majesty. After all, your country is very attractive." Qing Lianer said.
Currently, the latter was no longer that willful girl, even though Cloud Sea Country had imprisoned her. But now that the matter had been resolved, Qing Lianer did not forget the purpose of their trip.
Therefore, she naturally agreed to Wang Yuncheng's invitation. It was considered as giving Wang Yuncheng some face. This way, it would be easier for them to discuss the matter of Cloud Sea Country submitting to Cloud Rising Country.
Although Wang Yuncheng had said some polite words after that, the morning assembly ended in a harmonious atmosphere.
At this time, Chu Tian had already left the main hall with Jian Fengling, and Wang Yuncheng had also rushed over.
"Saint Heavenly King, please wait. I wonder if you are willing to stay in Cloud Sea Country for a short period of time. After all, our Cloud Sea Country is only doing this because of your help, Saint Heavenly King. Therefore, it can be considered as letting the Cloud Sea Country act as a host." Wang Yuncheng said.
"I'm sorry, Your Majesty. I'm here to rescue the princess. Now that the mission has been completed, I have to go back and take care of my own matters." Chu Tiandao could tell that this Wang Yuncheng also had the intention of roping him in or befriending him. After all, after witnessing his strength, normal people wouldn't become enemies with Chu Tian.
"So that's how it is. That was my slip of the tongue. Please forgive me." Wang Yuncheng said.
"No, it is my honor to have His Majesty invite me. Although I can't escape now, I will come back after this. I will speak freely with His Majesty when the time comes." Chu Tian said.
Hearing his words, Wang Yuncheng's eyes lit up. He smiled and nodded.
After hearing that Chu Tian and the others were leaving, Qing Lianer and the others also came out to see them off.
"Chu Tian, is it really good to leave the princess here like this? I was too careless this time, but with my strength alone, I'm afraid that it will be difficult to protect the princess." Gong Lei said with a frown.
Initially, he was quite confident, but after the experience of the Luosong Cult... If the people of the Luosong Cult were to attack him again... He was afraid that the princess would fall into a crisis once again.
"Gong Lei, you are the dignified president of the Hundred Treasure Chamber of Commerce after all. You have some confidence in yourself. Don't worry, the Luosong Cult won't do anything for the time being. I have already dealt with all the enemies they sent. I think they haven't received the news yet, so you don't have to worry about it. " Chu Tian said.
"I'll stay too. Although my strength may not be of much use, at least one more person and one more helper." Qing Mingcheng said.
Chu Tian glanced at the latter, then nodded his head. The two Life Death Stage warriors now had more insurance, and Huifeng naturally chose to stay as well. After that, only Chu Tian and Jian Fengling left.
