I have been painting skin in the cemetery for fifteen years
Chapter 378 Epilogue! The true ending! (Complete)
"Your Majesty Yingque, have you really thought it through?" Emperor Solomon said.
The souls of Emperor Solomon, Marquis Leanna, Duke Xiyuton, Archbishop Gregory, and Archbishop Rogge were released by Yingque and returned to their bodies.
Marquis Leanna said: "Your Majesty Yingque, the entire Western world has just emerged from the absolute darkness, and it is the most vulnerable time. You can take this opportunity to destroy it in one fell swoop and complete the grand cause of unifying the entire world."
Yingque smiled and said: "Destroy the Western world, unify the world, and then what?"
Yes, then what?
Then, Ying Que said: "Your Majesty Emperor Solomon, I must tell you that you and your subjects don't have much time left. In ten years, Queen Xia Yi and I will abdicate, and our son will inherit the throne. By that time, I don't know what he will do, and I won't force him. If he launches an army to attack the West, I won't stop him. If he wants to realize his ambitions, I won't stop him either."
Emperor Solomon said: "I understand."
Then, Archbishop Gregory said: "Your Majesty Ying Que, what role will you play in the future? Or to put it more bluntly, what kind of existence will your Sky Book City be?"
Ying Que thought for a while and said: "Sky Book City will become pure and will no longer have a transcendent status."
Emperor Solomon said: "Your Majesty Ying Que, if you wish, you don't But you can become the spiritual leader of the Eastern world, or the Western world, or the spiritual leader of the entire world, and supervise the development of this world. You currently have such ability. "
Ying Que said: "You mean, I build a super powerful behind-the-scenes organization in the Eastern and Western worlds, named the Skull Party or the Illuminati, to attract the best people in the world to join the organization and secretly manipulate the development of the entire world?"
"Hahaha..." Ying Que smiled lightly and said slowly: "Emperor Solomon, you don't have to test me. I just want to ask you a question. Do you know how your Western place will develop in ten years, twenty years, thirty years, fifty years...? Do you know how the world will develop in fifty years? How will the world develop in a hundred years?"
Emperor Solomon Emperor said: "If it was before, I might know, but now the whole world is undergoing a great change, so I don't know."
"Yes, I don't know." Ying Que said: "You don't know, and I don't know either. If a person can predict the development path of the world in the next hundred years, there are two situations."
"In the first situation, the world has no development or progress at all, it is just a boring repetition, over and over again."
"In the second situation, this person is a madman, who regards himself as a god and tries to make the whole world develop according to his vision."
"The first situation is sad. The second situation is even more tragic."
"People are not gods, and they can't be gods, so don't regard yourself as a god."
"At present, all my tasks have been completed. I don't have that kind of will, the will to manipulate mountains, rivers, sun, moon and stars." Ying Que said slowly: "If it is a long-term goal, it is great. But this should be the long-term goal of the whole country and the whole world, not my goal alone."
Emperor Solomon said: "Your Majesty Ying Que, I understand your painstaking efforts. You helped the Eastern world through the most dangerous time. Now he has begun to learn to walk, so you can lead them a little bit on the way ahead, and then they will have to walk on their own. Even if you want to destroy the Western world, let them do it themselves."
Ying Que said: "The most important thing is that my ability and wisdom are limited. I don't know what to do in the future. If I want to be a god, of course I can, and no one in the world can object to it at present, but it is too tiring and too stupid to do so. In the end, I will definitely become the target of others' hatred and scorn. It's enough."
Marquis Leanna said: "Your Majesty Ying Que, you have made us complete. While we are still alive in this generation, we may be full of admiration and gratitude for you. But the next generation, the next generation, this gratitude will no longer exist. By that time, our Western and Eastern worlds may be enemies to the death again. ”
Yingque said: "Born in sorrow, die in comfort."
Emperor Solomon said: "Your Majesty Yingque, we will take our leave now."
Yingque said: "Take care!"
Emperor Solomon hesitated for a moment, led a few people to kneel down to Yingque and said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your help."
Several other giants in the Western world knelt down to Yingque and said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your help. ”
……………………………………………………………………
Three months later!
A grand coronation ceremony was held in the capital of the Dongli Kingdom.
After fleeing his homeland for seven years, Longren, the former emperor of the Dongyi Empire and now the king of the Dongli Kingdom, once again returned to his hometown and officially ascended the throne.
Prince Lian, the Zongzheng of the Great Xia Empire, led His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, no, to be precise, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Xia Yun, led Prince Lian and his entire delegation to the Dongli Kyoto to watch the ceremony.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince crowned King Longren on behalf of Ying Que and Queen Xia Yi.
Even this crown was forged by Ying Que himself, and the gems on it were inlaid by Queen Xia Yi.
After King Longren ascended the throne, he issued his first decree.
The Kingdom of Dongli will always be loyal to the Great Xia Empire, to the Xia Ying family, and will always be the Eastern Sword of the Great Xia Empire, and will always be loyal to the blood and fire of the two families.
The seven-year-old Crown Prince and King Longrong held hands in the hall and raised them high.
………………………………………………………………
An old man climbed the mountain with difficulty, crossed the river, and walked through the desert.
He was the King Mi who once called the wind and rain.
After the war, Ying Que ordered him to exchange his extremely powerful body with Lord Jiumogang, giving him a sixty-year-old body. The martial arts of this body were neither strong nor weak, and under normal circumstances, he could probably live for another twenty or thirty years.
Mi You, who once manipulated conspiracies indoors, had to complete another mission in the last thirty years of his life.
A mission he had never said, or even told Ying Que.
Before leaving, he said that this was his last mission in this life, and it would take ten or twenty years to complete.
After finishing, he wanted to write a book.
Then, he left alone.
He was full of infinite regrets, because his dream of hegemony was completely shattered.
But... he was infinitely fortunate.
Because Ying Que was tolerant after all, Mi Li finally became king, established a large kingdom, and continued to expand the territory to the south.
The hegemony of the Mi family was still mostly accomplished.
Under the leadership of Mi Qi, the Mi family in the Great Xia Empire was not strong, but at least it could bear fruit.
After the war, he could not find any reason to stay.
Because... no one missed him, and no one needed him.
So, he was alone and embarked on a vast road ahead.
…………………………………………………………
Master Fu Caiwei and Master Jiumogang led a 100,000-strong army to the west, destroyed the Kingdom of Uz, and captured King Shaluman, who had resigned from the throne, back to Yingjing and cut him into pieces.
Revenge for Lord Jiumogang's son, and for many young elites of the Sky Book City reformists.
The former Kingdom of Uz was strong under the protection of the Western Church.
But now, the entire Western world is busy with its own affairs, so how can it care about him?
However, after revenge, Lord Jiumogang still did not find peace of mind.
When Mi You wanted to return his body to him, he refused again and again.
Before, he was full of a sense of mission, which was to help Yingque complete the great cause, and now that the great cause has been completed, what else can he do?
Two months later!
Wen Daozi brought a few people to Yingque to say goodbye.
Now that the great cause has been completed, Lord Wen Daozi wants to go to Nanman, build a new academy, and educate the barbarians, which the reformists have not completed before. Yingque agrees.
Lord Jiumogang, follow Wen Daozi to Nanman.
…………………………………………………………
Next month!
The Emperor of the Apocalypse Empire sent people to Yingjing to request to be relieved of the title of emperor, to be demoted to the emperor, and to be a vassal state of the Great Xia Empire, and to join the Eastern Alliance headed by His Majesty Ying Que.
Ying Que refused.
Then, the Emperor of the Apocalypse Empire sent another envoy to ask the Great Xia Empire to enthrone him as the King of Beiqi, to guard the northern border for the Great Xia Empire forever.
Ying Que and Queen Xia Yi refused again.
The next month, the King of Zhenbei, Li Rujing, led the army to the north to attack the Apocalypse Empire.
The Apocalypse Empire was defeated.
The Sword Saint Dugu Bai cut off the head of the Emperor of the Apocalypse Empire, went to Yingjing in person, and knelt in front of Ying Que.
Kneeling beside him was the youngest prince of the Apocalypse Empire royal family.
It was the first time that Ying Que saw this former number one in the world.
"Your Majesty can accommodate the Western world, but not the thousands of miles of territory of the Apocalypse Empire." The Sword Saint said slowly: "This is something that I understand."
Ying Que said: "Tell me about it."
The Sword Saint said: "The Western Church is strong enough, advanced enough, and different enough to serve as an external enemy, constantly urging the Great Xia Empire and sharpening the Great Xia Empire. The Apocalypse Empire has fallen behind and is outdated. It can just become the future resource treasure house and buffer of the Great Xia Empire."
Ying Que said slowly: "You are indeed a wise man."
"For a long time, we were the whip of the north, whipping the Central Plains Empire, but from now on we will lose this opportunity forever, and this ending cannot be changed, but... I beg you to leave the Apocalypse royal family. Perhaps in the next hundred or two hundred years, our ethnic group will become an indispensable part again."
Ying Que and Queen Xia Yi agreed.
So far, the Apocalypse Empire has completely perished.
The Apocalypse royal family retained a lineage and was canonized as a vassal king by the Great Xia Empire.
………………………………………………………………
Ten years later
Ying Que and the empress's son Xia Yun came of age.
Her Majesty fulfilled the agreement of the year and passed the throne to the crown prince Xia Yun.
Xia Yun ascended the throne and became the emperor, and he didn't even have the title of the emperor emeritus.
Shen Wuzhuo, Li Zhan, Ning Daoyi, and Xu Enzeng were the regents.
Empress Xia Yi had conferred the title of king on Shen Wuzhuo six times.
Because the Shen and Ying families were one.
So far, there were three royal families in the entire Great Xia Empire, the Ying family, the Li family, and the Shen family.
However, Shen Wuzhuo refused every time.
Finally, he publicly stated in the court that if the emperor insisted on conferring him the title of king, he would commit suicide immediately after returning.
The emperor had to give up.
So, the Queen once again issued an edict to posthumously confer the title of Wu Prince on Shen Gongao.
After seeing Shen Wuzhuo's statement, Zhenbei King Li Rujing also publicly submitted a petition to resign the throne.
Her Majesty the Queen resolutely refused to allow it, and promoted Li Rujing to Rong Prince.
Li Rujing resolutely refused to accept it.
And he wept and submitted a petition that he would accept this title until the day he died, but he would never inherit it.
So everyone knew that the Li family's throne would end here.
Li Zhan could only be conferred the title of Duke.
From now on, except for the Ying family, no one else in the Great Xia Empire would be conferred the title of King.
Shen Wuzhuo laid the foundation for the power class of the entire Great Xia Empire with his selfless spirit.
In a sense, Shen Wuzhuo pulled the Li family down from the title of King.
In terms of merit and seniority, no one can surpass Shen Wuzhuo, and he is also the elder brother of His Majesty Ying Que. If even he cannot be conferred the title of King, who else can be conferred the title of King?
But the Li family is full of gratitude to Duke Shen Wuzhuo.
Although they lost the throne, they gained wealth and peace for generations.
Because the royal family will become stronger and stronger in the future, Ying Que's generation will certainly not take action against the Li family, and even Xia Yun's generation will not do so, but what about the next generation?
Even if the Xia family does not take action, the descendants of the Ying family will be ready to move.
It's fine for us Ying family to be king, because the royal family is our brothers, and this world was conquered by our ancestor, His Majesty Ying Que. Why do you Li family claim to be king? Can your Li family's contribution in this great struggle exceed that of the Shen Gong family?
………………………………………………………………
Five years after Xia Yun ascended the throne.
Ying Que and Empress Xia Yi completely retired, and even completely disappeared from everyone's sight.
After that, Emperor Xia Yun couldn't wait to make all his brothers kings.
Ying Que and Empress Xia Yi gave birth to a total of five children, three sons and two daughters. Two brothers with the same father and mother were named Jing Wang and Han Wang.
Among the half-brothers, the son of Ying Que and Princess Li Yang was named King Cheng.
The son of Ying Que and Zhi Fan was named King Ying.
The remaining half-brothers were all county kings, not princes.
There were two exceptions.
One was the child of Fu Caiwei, who was only named Duke because he had to inherit the Fu family business.
The other was the son of Shen Lingluo, who also had the surname Shen and was also named Duke.
Shen Lingluo originally adopted the child himself, but the Shen family had made too many contributions and sacrifices, and it was really unfair for the family to have only one Duke.
So, Ying Que and Shen Lingluo had a son and a daughter. The daughter took Ying Que's surname and was named Princess, and the son took Shen Lingluo's surname and was promoted to Duke.
All the Shen family members restored the Shen family.
In this way, the Shen family also had two Dukes, and the hereditary title was worthy of everything the Shen family had paid for decades.
After her son was nineteen years old, Fu Caiwei officially left and lived with Ying Que.
…………………………………………………………
Emperor Xia Yun has been on the throne for fifteen years.
He is now thirty-two years old, truly in the prime of life, and in control of power.
However, he also has worries in his heart.
He is the flesh and blood of his father Ying Que, and of course he worships and respects his father infinitely.
And the whole world worships and respects his father even more, especially his father Ying Que's brave retreat, which has made him a perfect reputation in the whole world, a reputation that is almost like a god.
So in the eyes of the people of the world.
If the Xia family can be emperor, then the Ying family may also be able to do so.
In the future, if the Xia family does not live up to expectations, can the Ying family replace it?
Now the number of princes of the Ying family even exceeds that of the Xia family, and the Ying family and the Shen Gong family are absolutely loyal. The two families are one. In a sense, the Xia family is not the most powerful family, but the Ying family is.
Of course, the two princes of the Ying family and the two dukes of the Shen Gong family are all loyal to Emperor Xia Yun, so there is no need to worry about any drastic changes in this generation.
We are all children of our father and half-brothers.
This generation is fine, but what about the next generation?
What about the next generation?
Then what should be done?
Fighting against each other? !
How is this possible?
In that case, he would become a tyrant and a tyrant.
Not to mention that he can't do it himself, even if he can, the world will not tolerate him.
At this time, he should learn from his father and improve his value and reputation.
If he can't suppress others, then improve himself.
His father and mother abdicated early and handed over the throne and power to him.
So how to avoid inner worries?
Of course, he should make the throne more noble and sacred.
Use one generation, two generations, to create great achievements and distinguish himself from his brothers.
Let the whole world have a concept that the throne must be the descendants of Xia Yun, and not the descendants of any other brothers.
Even if a certain descendant is not useful, he should look for the heir to the throne among his descendants who are ambitious and promising, rather than looking for it from others.
I can't suppress these half-brothers, but I have to use them, so as not to disappoint my parents, and I have to be tolerant.
But at the same time, I have to completely stabilize and sanctify the succession of the throne.
And I have to solve the problem in my generation.
Because the relationship between the brothers of this generation is very good, and the elder and younger brothers surnamed Ying are completely loyal to me, without any unreasonable thoughts.
When it comes to the next generation, and the next generation after that, things will be hard to say.
Therefore, Emperor Xia Yun set his sights on the other end of the map, the huge Western world.
After twenty years of recuperation and development, the Western world has become strong enough, and it should be strong enough to fulfill its reputation.
………………………………………………………………
A few months later!
There was a trade friction and dispute between the Daxia Empire and the Xiting Empire.
Both sides sent missions to start negotiations.
After more than a month of talks, the trade dispute between the two sides has subsided slightly.
But not long after.
There was a maritime conflict between the Kingdom of Dongli and the Kingdom of Weedon, and the two ships collided.
The Kingdom of Widun, as the middle continent between the Eastern and Western worlds, covers an area of more than 7 million square kilometers and has a population of nearly 10 million.
Under the perennial penetration of the Daxia Empire, immigrants from the east accounted for a full 30% of the entire kingdom's population.
This country is the center point of the Eastern world and the Western world, and the dividing line between the forces of the two sides.
After the maritime conflict, within the Kingdom of Witton, the kingdom's army also killed Eastern immigrant merchants, which then evolved into a conflict between the army and the merchants' armed forces.
This conflict soon evolved into a small-scale naval battle.
King Longreng of the Dongli Kingdom asked for help from the Daxia Empire.
The Daxia Empire sent troops.
On the surface, it seems that the Daxia Empire sent troops to help the Dongli Kingdom, but in fact it was King Longreng who took chestnuts from the fire for the Daxia Empire.
The Kingdom of Witton also asked for help from the Xiting Empire, and the Xiting Empire sent troops.
The war between the East and the West is about to break out.
It was at this time that Emperor Solomon of the Xiting Empire suddenly made a public visit to the Daxia Empire.
Twenty years later, Emperor Solomon of the Western Empire once again set foot on the land of the Eastern World.
Of course, this was also the first time he set foot on the land of the Great Xia Empire.
………………………………………………………………
Emperor Xia Yun officially became the emperor of the Western Holy See in Yingjing Palace.
Emperor Solomon was nearly eighty years old.
"Your Majesty, the Great Emperor, has there been any news about your Majesty in recent years?" Emperor Solomon asked.
Emperor Xia Yun said: "No, my parents live like gods. I don't know where they are. I haven't seen them for nearly ten years. Just last night, I dreamed of them."
"I also miss His Majesty Yingque." Emperor Solomon said: "Your Majesty Yingque loves and values you the most. Everything he does is with good intentions."
Then, Emperor Solomon said: "Great Emperor, I very much understand your motivation and necessity to launch this war. Even if deep down in your heart you are unwilling to launch this war."
Xia Yundao: "I also know that you and your father have a deep friendship."
Emperor Solomon said: "I dare not say friendship, more accurately, it is His Majesty Yingque's great kindness to us."
Then, Emperor Solomon said: "You need a victory. Is a diplomatic victory okay?"
Xia Yun was silent.
Emperor Solomon said: "Your Majesty, you are still very, very young in your prime of life, so there is no need to be so anxious."
Xia Yun remained silent.
Emperor Solomon said: "The reason why His Majesty Yingque left the Western World is to provide the Eastern World with a whetstone at all times. I hope that you and your descendants will have a whetstone for generations to come. After more than 20 years of development, although our Western world is strong enough, as a whetstone, it may not be strong enough to sharpen your sword. I believe you are a great king. You’ll have the best trade-off.”
Xia Yun looked at the map again and nodded.
Then, he said hoarsely: "Everything I do, the first thing I think about is not to disappoint my father. How much I hope he can come back and see me."
Emperor Solomon said: "It's a pity that I don't have enough weight, and my funeral is not big enough for him to appear in person."
Then, he said slowly: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for this."
……………………………………………………
After this meeting between the two emperors, the Xiting Empire announced sanctions against the Kingdom of Witton.
It was claimed that all responsibility for the conflict lay solely with the House of Witton.
Emperor Solomon issued an edict to reprimand King Witton for his persecution of Eastern immigrants and merchants, asking King Witton to apologize to Eastern immigrants and merchants, pay huge compensation, and execute all troops who harmed Eastern immigrants and merchants.
Next, the Kingdom of Witton ceded the land of two counties as autonomous states for eastern merchants and immigrants.
Afterwards, a coup occurred in the Kingdom of Witton, the prince came to power, and the king was imprisoned.
The newly enthroned king ceded another county to the Daxia Empire as a concession for 100 years.
In this way, the war between the East and the West was eliminated.
However, Emperor Solomon was reviled by the entire Western world, saying that he was old and weak, and that he had lost power and had humiliated the country.
You know, the Xiting Empire is the protectorate of the Kingdom of Witton and the absolute leader of the entire Western world.
How can the entire Western world lose face by making such concessions?
The following year, Emperor Solomon abdicated and the prince proclaimed himself emperor. He called himself the Supreme Emperor.
Five years later, Emperor Solomon died of illness, and an unprecedented grand funeral was held.
Prince Ying of the Great Xia Empire led a delegation to attend the funeral of Emperor Solomon.
The newly ascended emperor of the Xiting Empire wants to marry his daughter to Prince Ying, the son of Ying Que and Princess Liyang.
Before that, the extremely beautiful Princess Anne had met Prince Ying and had feelings for him.
Prince Ying did not accept it immediately, but wrote a letter to ask Emperor Xia Yun.
His Majesty the Emperor loved this younger brother very much and directly said that if you like him, you can marry him.
So, the 26-year-old Prince Ying married Princess Anne of the Xiting Empire as a concubine.
The Great Xia Empire and the Xiting Empire officially married.
Many people in the Xiting Empire breathed a sigh of relief. The marriage between the two sides should be good news.
However, a love and a marriage obviously cannot stop any ambition.
But... just three months after the wedding.
Conflict broke out in the Kingdom of Witton. The armies of the two autonomous states and concessions had an armed conflict with the army of the Witton royal family.
This conflict gradually evolved into a civil war.
The elderly Prince Eugen of the Xiting Empire personally led a team to visit the Great Xia Empire, wanting to emulate the good deeds of Emperor Solomon in turning hostility into friendship.
The last time Emperor Solomon personally visited Emperor Xia Yun, he exchanged for six years of peace.
But this time, Prince Eugen's visit failed.
The Great Xia Empire officially sent troops to the Kingdom of Witten on the grounds of protecting the lease and Eastern immigrants. In just one month, the Kingdom of Witten fell and was completely occupied by the Great Xia Empire. The Empire also supported a seven-year-old prince of the Weir royal family to ascend the throne, and this prince had half Eastern blood.
After the fall of the Kingdom of Witten, it meant that the balance between the East and the West was completely broken, and the middle line between the East and the West did not exist at all.
So far, the full-scale war between the East and the West has officially begun!
Then, Emperor Xia Yun officially announced to the world that he officially changed his surname to Xia Ying.
From now on, the supreme royal family in the Eastern world is Xia Ying. He is not only the master of the Xia family, but also the master of the Ying family.
All the people in the world shouted long live.
He has been preparing for this for more than ten years.
All the people in the world have been looking forward to it for more than ten years, and there is no obstacle to acceptance.
In the eyes of the world, His Majesty Ying Que never called himself an emperor, and he was only a regent for his whole life. He even abolished his position as the Holy Lord of Sky Book City. This was his noble character and his divine temperament.
However, the world felt sorry for him. He was the supreme master of the Eastern world, and this should be reflected.
And now, His Majesty the Emperor has finally completed this step.
So far, this has become the most noble surname in the world.
But...
All this has nothing to do with Ying Que.
He completely let go and lived a fairy-like life with his wives.
He is just an observer of this world.
A distant god.
An even more distant savior.
A savior who may never appear again.

Note: It is officially finished. Thank you everyone. Then we will see you in the new book. Thank you again for your company.
