History of the Great Zhou Dynasty

Chapter 160: King's death·Change of monarch (4,000)

"...Witch hopes that Patriarch Anfeng will be safe and well."

An Feng was surprised when he heard this and then smiled.

"An Feng thanked the witch for her blessing..."

An Feng lowered his head, and when he raised his eyes again, he looked directly at Feng Yun.

"Fengjun, the witch also mentioned Nuwa and Baiyue, right?"

Feng Yun hesitated... and nodded.

An Feng smiled sadly.

"Will Lord Feng stop An Feng?"

"What to stop?" Feng Yun asked back, but just like what An Feng said beside Daze before governing Fengze, he repeated it again: "Things that are beneficial to the Baiyue Kingdom should not be blocked."

"..." An Feng was silent.

"Fengjun, can you protect Nuwa's secret for Anfeng?"

Feng Yun heard this and nodded slowly.

An Feng smiled brightly, with a hint of tenderness in his eyes, but soon, the silver ornaments on the silver dragon hat blew on his face due to the wind, An Feng's smile disappeared, and the perseverance in his eyes was replaced by tenderness.

"Now that the people of Baiyue are stable, how could An Feng, a Nuwa clan, destroy this stability... Even if An Feng is not Lord Feng, he will not betray the Nuwa clan."

"It's windy in the water, so it's better to go back to Xunyang City."

An Feng turned around, and the silver ornaments on the silver dragon hat jingled in the wind, but there was nothing sweet about it...

…

"Report!"

"Report!"

In the city of Xunyang, one day after the witch was buried, Baiyue commanded the Malays to report urgently, shouting: "The king has passed away!"

"King, passed away!"

In Xunyang City, there were cries of surprise.

Feng Yun looked indifferently towards the southeast skyline, where the capital of Baiyue Kingdom was located.

"Wang, Yun still vaguely remembers the taste of beef when we first met him."

A sense of sadness spreads in Xunyang City...

Feng Yun sighed.

What can he do about people's birth, old age, illness and death?

King Baiyue's body did not improve even after Wu Yi's long treatment, and Feng Yun also expected his decline.

The feeling of sadness and sadness still cannot help but emerge.

No matter what happened to the King of Baiyue, he treated Feng Yun courteously and entrusted the country with his full support to Feng Yun in carrying out national policies...

"Come here, prepare your horses, and go and see the king off."

"No!" the waiter responded with a cry in his voice.

The people who came from Baiyue City also ran into Xunyang Palace quickly, and no one dared to stop them.

"Fengjun!"

Weeping all over the place, the man shouted loudly: "The king passed away, he made Qihu the king, and asked Feng Yun to go to Baiyue City to host the ceremony!"

Big gift...

Sacrifice and royal rites.

To worship the old lord of Baiyue and welcome the new king to the throne, who else in the entire Baiyue country except Feng Yun can preside over it?

Maybe the previous witch can do it, maybe the now-promoted Great Elder and the Second Elder can preside together...

"Go and wait, and you can set off on your journey."

"promise!"

The man retreats.

An Feng, who was waiting outside the hall, followed this man with his eyes and could not look back for a long time.

"King Ji is dead..."

An Feng said softly.

"He is a good king."

After An Feng finished speaking, he stepped into the palace.

When Feng Yun saw this, he took out the Xunyang City Order that the witch gave him.

"You stay in Xunyang and keep an eye on Xunyang's urban construction and wind and water. It is the season of heavy rains. You must not make any mistakes, and you must not harm the workers due to the scorching sun or rain."

An Feng took the Xunyang City Order, lowered his head and said: "Promise."

Feng Yun didn't have much to do and immediately asked Manwa to pull the cart with a bear and drive towards Baiyue City.

After Feng Yun left, An Feng summoned a maid...

The waitress said: "Chief, King Naji passed away and his son Hu succeeded to the throne. He also ordered Princess Yue to marry Ba Kingdom in order to make Ba and Baiyue friends..."

An Feng nodded and looked into the distance, his eyebrows full of thoughts, and he said softly: "Prince Yue is not a submissive person, and this edict is not like what King Qi did... Where is she now?"

The maid is respectful, she is a member of the An family brought by An Feng, and she is the meticulous work of An Feng outside.

"Clan leader, now Princess Yue has escaped from Baiyue City and gone to the farmland in the east. It seems that she wants to restart the White Tiger Division under her."

"Red Tiger Department?"

An Feng pursed his lips and smiled.

"There are many branches of the Red Tigers, and how many of hers are there? How can they resist the Qihu who has already taken the lead?"

After thinking for a while, An Feng said: "Let Duonan protect her..."

With that said, An Feng found animal skins to use for writing.

When the waitress got the animal skin, she left quickly.

"well……"

An Feng sighed slightly: "Mr. Feng, Baiyue is feeling uneasy right now."

An Feng's eyes flashed with struggle, and finally he used the Xunyang City Order to summon the servants and give the order.

"The king passed away. In order to avoid unrest among the people, we immediately sent the guards around Fengze back to Xunyang City to be on standby at any time to comply with the king's orders!"

"promise…"

…

It was also at this time that a metal bird flew into the roaring carriage.

There is a roll of cloth at Ye Niao's feet.

Feng Yun took it off, looked at it, and put it in his arms.

"Li Yue...Qiu Hu..."

"Did the king really make Qihu the new king?"

Feng Yun was skeptical about this, and even more suspicious about what Qi Hu said about the king's order for Li Yue to go to Ba for marriage.

But no matter what, only by going to the capital of Baiyue can everything be confirmed.

nonstop……

In the early morning of the next day, Feng Yun rushed to the capital of Baiyue.

"The new king is too impatient..."

Feng Yun opened the car curtain, and the servants outside sounded the gong and told him that the King of Baiyue took the tiger as his name. The voices calling him Tiger King kept coming and going. This was to say that the old king had passed away and the new king had been established.

On the streets, armored soldiers patrolled, and some questioning voices were suppressed.

"Hey, where did the big black bear come from?"

When Feng Yun was thinking about how the tiger would face him, he heard a cry of surprise from outside.

The black bear that turned out to be Manwa scared someone.

Feng Yun was in a hurry and did not arrange for horses to drive. This was the first time that a black bear drove into the city.

"In the criminal code, ferocious beasts are strictly prohibited from entering the streets. They must be guarded by armored soldiers when entering the streets. What do you mean by this?" asked the man outside.

Some patrolling soldiers also came to suppress the black bear.

"Everyone, step back."

Feng Yun frowned slightly.

"Fengjun!"

Not to mention these armored soldiers, even the Baiyue people watching the excitement around them could recognize Feng Yun's voice. How dare the armored soldiers block the way and hurriedly gave way.

The person who just asked the question also hurriedly said: "Feng Jun, please forgive me. I am a corporal of the Ministry of Justice, but I don't know Feng Jun's car, so I disturbed you!"

Ministry of Justice…

I don’t know what his car is…

That's a good excuse.

Maybe they still don't know that Manwa is Feng Yun's bodyguard.

"You are also strict with yourself, so retreat."

Dukes and princes have privileges, and kings have privileges. Although Feng Yun has resigned from the position of Prime Minister, no one dares to say that he has no privileges.

Feng Yun does not stop you from acting with privileges. As long as you act under the privileges, act for the country, be worthy of the name, and be recognized by the people... then it is okay.

"Man baby, go to the Palace of Classics."

"promise."

Manwa drives the chariot. This chariot was made for him to travel far away with Feng Yun. It has strong bones and strong bones, and the carriage is spacious. When driving in Baiyue City, the black bear pulling the chariot is extremely conspicuous.

Not long after, in the Baiyue Palace, Ge Bao, who had just lost his temper, heard the news that Feng Yun had come to the city.

"Send someone to catch him!"

The tiger roared angrily, but of course it was not to catch Feng Yun. The tiger did not have the courage at this time.

"Qibao actually colluded with Baoluo, and also intended to secretly collude with Gu Ai to seek the throne of king!"

"Haha, you are so courageous. My father's throne was passed down to me by my father. It is just and legitimate. What name can he...and Li Yue have to fight for!"

At this time, a soldier hurriedly came to report!

"Report!"

"King, Baoluo and hundreds of Bao's children fled to the border of Guai..."

"Huh?" The tiger slapped the tiger-skin throne angrily: "He had already planned it!"

"Where's the leopard?"

Jiabing reported: "Prince Bao has been captured. I don't know what the king will do..."

"..." Qi Hu pondered, with a flash of cruelty in his eyes, but thinking that he had just gained the throne, and Feng Yun had come to the capital of Baiyue at this time...

"Detained in the city, his freedom is not restricted, but he must be guarded by guards at all times."

"promise…"

"Report...to the Grand Duke and the Second Duke to ask for an audience..."

…

Baiyue Gicheng, the situation is changing...

After Li Yue disappeared, it was rumored that Qi Bao and Bao Luo were colluding, intending to make friends with Gu Ai and plotting to find a new king. His Bao Luo defected and the king ordered his arrest. However, Qi Bao was captured and could not come out of the royal city.

For a time, everyone was in danger.

But the young man inside the court felt strangely calm.

And the classics are in the palace.

Feng Yun was sitting in the hall, silently watching the information sent by Xi Zuo——

Wuhu recalled his close confidant Chibu, who was guarding Fengze Fengchou, to capture Baoluo.

And Baoluo has now fled to Aidi with hundreds of his disciples...

“The outlet must not be lost.”

Feng Yun picked up his pen and wrote the edict, but heard that Wu Yi came to see him.

"Please." Feng Yun silently put down the animal skin.

Wu Yi walked vigorously and quickly arrived in front of Feng Yun.

"Fengjun is well."

"Wu Yi'an is well."

Feng Yunzheng wanted to find Wu Yi, because Wu Yi was the king's close doctor. The king's illnesses were all taken care of by Wu Yi in the past, and Wu Yi was also the Grand Duke of the Medical Department.

"The king's affairs..."

Wu Yi raised his hand and said calmly: "The king's illness has been predicted for a long time. I used the blood of the princess Yue to nourish him and hang him for life. It was helpless. Now that Baiyue has Lord Feng's plan, the king can feel at ease."

Leave."

Feng Yun was silent for a long time.

"The king has really left?" Feng Yun was still in disbelief. He was more willing to hear that this was the king's deception, just to test Feng Yun's national policy.

Wu Yi shook his head.

"The king's body will be buried soon. There is no doubt about it. Mr. Feng does not need to remember the past, but should look more at the future..."

"But..." Wu Yi stretched out his hand and pressed down on the animal skin where Feng Yun had only written a few words.

"Fengjun, Baiyue must adapt to life without you."

"The king passed away at this time. I just hope that Fengjun can take action when Baiyue cannot hold on, and not at this time."

Feng Yun took a deep breath.

"Yun understands, but when is the king's funeral, I want to personally host the funeral."

Wu nodded.

"Three days later."

After Wu Yi finished speaking, Feng Yun no longer wanted to continue talking, and the two of them said goodbye.

In the evening, the tiger came to pass the news and wanted to ask Mr. Feng to talk about it.

Feng Yun said: "I came to Baiyue just to preside over the king's funeral. If Baiyue's state affairs are left to the new king to govern himself..."

The chamberlain left.

When Qihu, who was in the Baiyue Palace, heard what Feng Yun said, he was overjoyed, thinking that Feng Yun recognized him.

One night later, all matters related to the king's funeral were moved to the Palace of Classics and Feng Yun took care of it. For a time, the entire Baiyue City was peaceful, and there were no more questions about the new king, only the sadness of the former king's departure.

.

…

Two days later, it became widely known that the new king and Feng Yun had never met.

The people all thought that Feng Yun was in charge of the funeral of the late king and had no time to see each other. However, the princes and princes of the Jiuli and Shi tribes believed that this was because the new king was alienating Feng Yun and wanted to seize Feng Yun's prestige and destroy Feng Yun's momentum.

In the meantime, many young men and women laughed secretly and had many little thoughts.

"People's minds change." Feng Yun was in the Palace of Classics and had been exhausted for two days. When he heard Xi Zuo's words, he couldn't help but have a headache.

"The Monuments of the Grand Duke and the Grand Duke require a large number of examples. Step by step, the privileges in the Monuments of the Grand Duke and the Grand Duke become a hidden system. At this time, the assassination of the Grand Duke has not yet completely stabilized, and the king has changed. It is really..."

Feng Yun thought for a moment, if it hadn't been for the witch who left some room for his grandfather's burial, I'm afraid the young prince would have taken advantage of the situation to cause trouble instead of being sneaky as he is now.

"I hope the new king can take this into consideration and not be fooled by the grandpa's rhetoric..."

Feng Yun's eyes were filled with anger.

In the past few days, the young and old have complimented the new king, and the tiger has been lifted up to the sky, but it is not known whether it will be able to reach the ground.

"It's better to make Li Yue king."

Feng Yun put down the list of names for tomorrow's funeral, stood up and left the palace, looking at the horizon where dark clouds were about to come. He took a deep breath, but couldn't let it go.

"It is going to rain."

It was clearly dusk at this time, but there was not a trace of the setting sun shining through. The sky was like dark night, and the wind was blowing loudly, giving people a feeling of depression, as if the sky would collapse in the next moment and press the entire Baiyue Kingdom under it.

"Report...Feng Jun, Wang Zibao colluded inside and outside, and now uses the remaining power of the Tu family to escape from the Baiyue capital..."

Feng Yun's face was expressionless. Perhaps Qi Bao, who had been deceived by the Dukes, didn't know about this, but he knew very well that Qi Bao stayed in the Baiyue capital, not because he couldn't escape, but because he was colluding with the Dukes in the city.

"Remember those people. After the funeral, those who participated in the clan will be killed. The rest of the clan will be divided into various places and demoted from the public clan."

"promise."

Those who are treasonous and conspirators, Feng Yun doesn't care about the privileges of the big and small clans. After all, these people no longer regard Baiyue as their own country, so why should they treat them with national privileges?

"Reporting to Lord Feng, Queen Nuyue raised her troops in Ai City, denounced the Tiger King for being a son of man in vain, and killed the late king. At this time, she has led a large army, crossed the Feng River, and is heading towards the capital of Baiyue!"

Feng Yun was slightly stunned.

"Princess Moon?"

"Donan..."

"Come on, go to the city gate!"

"promise!"

…

Baiyue City is restless.

The news of Li Yue's military expedition was extremely strange, and it appeared in Baiyue City immediately.

Outside Xunyang City, Wu Yi rode a carriage and led his nine disciples on a quick walk into the interior of Xunyang City.

"Mr. Wu Yi, don't we need to host the funeral of the late king?"

Wu Yi sat in the car and shook his head slightly.

"The king originally wanted to send his daughter as an envoy to the Ba Kingdom to seek marriage, but the princess had no intention and the king did not want to force it. This time, he can only send the Baiyue women collected earlier to the Ba Kingdom."

"And when we come to Xunyang, we are also preparing the envoy convoy in Xunyang, waiting for Lord Feng to finish the funeral of the late king, so that we can go to Ba as an envoy..."

"Oh I got it……"

"Da da da!"

"Mr. Wu Yi, why did Xunyang City send out troops?"

When Xunyang sent out troops, he saw An Feng standing on the chariot, looking into the distance. He was wearing leather armor and a silver dragon hat. His beautiful face was extremely majestic, as if he was determined and unstoppable.

But at this moment——

"flood!"

"What is this sound!" An Feng frowned, his heart beating rapidly...

She looked back and saw thunder and lightning roaring in the dark cloud-covered sky in the distance, and beneath the thunder and lightning, a huge wave was approaching!
