Chapter 1013 The Previous Royal Family
"My lord, you once sent an army to excavate Wuhua City. The army entered the underground palace of Wuhua City, causing the underground palace to collapse and the souls of the previous kings to be invaded!"
"That's why God punished the Ming Dynasty and brought disasters to the Ming Dynasty! The people had no choice but to rise up and conquer several city-states!"
"The Ming Dynasty is in danger, but you, the king, are hiding in the palace, trying to escape! Why should a king like you be described as immoral?"
Hou Bufan's words made Yang Daoming so angry that he vomited blood.
"General Hou, what nonsense are you talking about! I don't know anything about the underground palace in Wuhua City! Besides, the army of the Ming Dynasty belongs to you, how can I mobilize it? The Ming Dynasty is full of disasters, and it's not me It’s my fault, I don’t even have the slightest power, so how can I deal with this matter? Hiding in the palace is not what I want, but what can I do besides hiding in the palace?”
Hou Bufan simply turned a deaf ear to Yang Daoming's excuse.
"Master of the country, it's useless for you to explain to me alone. If you are really the leader of a country, please explain to the world!"
"Explain? How to explain?" Yang Daoming asked tremblingly.
"Of course I'm going to die to apologize!"
Hou Bufan expressed his decision.
Only now did Yang Daoming know that Hou Bufan broke into the palace not to discuss with him, but to kill him.
"Hou Bufan, how dare you!" Yang Daoming said bravely.
"I dare? Of course I dare!" Hou Bufan showed a cold look on his face, "As long as I put all the responsibility for the collapse of the underground palace on your head, and then use your head to appease the homeless thugs, the entire Ming Dynasty will regain peace. Then I will appoint a younger ruler and command the princes with the help of the emperor, and the entire Ming Kingdom will still be in my possession!"
Hou Bufan was filled with murderous intent, and Yang Daoming knew that he had no way to fight against it.
"General Hou, if you want the position of king, I can give it to you! Really, as long as you don't kill me, I can give you anything!"
Yang Daoming couldn't help begging for mercy.
Hou Bufan was unwilling to listen. He had already pinched Yang Daoming's neck with his palms.
"My lord, death is imminent. Please don't be so cowardly and face death calmly!"
Hou Bufan's strength reached the fourth level of feathering.
He was the strongest man in Ming Dynasty, how could Yang Daoming be his opponent?
Yang Daoming felt that his whole body was shaken by Hou Bufan's power, and he couldn't move at all.
In desperation, Yang Daoming could only close his eyes and wait for death.
Suddenly, a black shadow flashed past, and Yang Daoming was taken away from Hou Bufan's hand.
"who!"
Hou Bufan shouted, but the movement of this black shadow was extremely fast, carrying Yang Daoming like smoke, and disappeared in an instant.
When the leader of the country was about to be killed, a lot of troubles arose, and Hou Bufan was immediately furious.
Who was it that rescued the leader of the Ming Kingdom?
Hou Bufan was a little panicked, but as a general of the Ming Dynasty, no matter how panicked he was, he couldn't show it to outsiders.
After staying in the palace for a while, Hou Bufan walked out of the king's palace.
A large number of soldiers have gathered outside the palace, which Hou Bufan prepared for the regicide.
Hou Bufan said loudly: "Soldiers, the leader of the Ming Kingdom has committed suicide out of fear of crime. From today on, I will temporarily rule the Ming Kingdom! If someone claims to be the leader of the Ming Kingdom, this person must be a fake. After seeing it, , shoot without mercy!”
Since the king was missing, Hou Bufan naturally assumed that the king was dead.
The soldiers all shouted loudly, and they all obeyed the general's orders.
On the other hand, Yang Daoming has arrived on a small hill outside the capital.
Only now did the leader of the Ming Kingdom see clearly who saved him. It was the champion of the Jing Kingdom whom he had just met.
"Champion Hou, thank you!" Yang Daoming said gratefully.
Zhou Ran smiled slightly: "Master of the Ming Kingdom, you don't need to thank me, I just haven't gone far! I saved you, and I just want to ask you one thing: Do you regret it?"
Zhou Ran's words made Yang Daoming silent.
The eyes of the leader of the Ming Dynasty actually flashed with tears.
After a long time, Yang Daoming said: "I regret it! Of course I regret it! Champion Hou, I regret not listening to your advice and cooperating with you, but I almost died in the hands of that traitor Hou Bufan. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I wouldn't even have the chance to regret it. nothing."
"In that case, are you willing to help me?" Zhou Ran mentioned the old words again.
After experiencing life and death just now, Yang Daoming's state of mind was naturally very different, and he nodded heavily.
"Champion Hou, you are right. I have no other choice but to cooperate with you! But now I am alone, powerless and unable to mobilize the army. I cannot help you at all!"
Yang Daoming was bitter, but Zhou Ran patted Yang Daoming on the shoulder.
"Master of the Ming Kingdom, only you can help me with this matter. This has nothing to do with the power you have. You only need to take me to the ancestors of the Ming Kingdom. You should know these things, right?"
"Previous royal family?" Yang Daoming was startled. "But the Ming Dynasty was in turmoil. Over the past few hundred years, it had changed dynasties many times. When was the royal family of the ancestors you mentioned?"
"The king buried in the underground palace of Wuhua City, what I am looking for are his direct descendants!"
Zhou Ran stated his request. Although the Ming Dynasty was controlled by a general, only the royal family knew best about the inheritance of the royal bloodline.
The Beiyang Immortal told him that the pillar core of the Shura Pillar of the Ming Dynasty was kept by the royal family of the Ming Dynasty. As long as the previous royal family was found, the pillar core could be found.
"It is the Xue Dynasty! But the Xue family is now indistinguishable from the crowd. Is it really useful to find them?"
Yang Daoming said the surname of the previous royal family.
When the Ming Dynasty was in turmoil and the royal family was replaced, the previous royal family would be granted a title and would have no worries about food and clothing from then on.
But one royal family after another came to power, and the royal family that was originally granted a title naturally had no way to continue to be prosperous and wealthy, and gradually fell into the ranks of ordinary people.
As the king himself, he was also miserable. Yang Daoming did not believe that ordinary people could save the entire Ming Dynasty.
"King of Ming, do you know where the descendants of the Xue family are now?" Zhou Ran asked again.
"I only know that they were granted the title of Huangsha City, and they were the city lords of Huangsha City for generations. However, with the changes of the times, the city lord has long been changed. However, there are still many people with the surname Xue in Huangsha City. If we want to find the descendants of the previous king, we can only try our luck."
"Huangsha City?" Zhou Ran smiled slightly, "In this case, let's go to Huangsha City quickly!"
Although I don't know whether the trip to Huangsha City will be useful, I don't have much time left. If I can't find the core of the Shura Pillar of Ming Country, the entire southern border will fall into dire straits.
