Many children bring happiness, starting from marrying a wife and starting to dominate the world

After Lu Chen led his troops to the city gate, Situ Ce immediately led the civil and military officials of the court to salute and said: "The King of the North broke through the conspiracy of the Demon Cult, saved Daxia, and made outstanding contributions! Now that His Majesty has gone west, the country cannot If there is no king for a day, we sincerely ask the Northern King to ascend the throne and take charge of Daxia!"

After Situ Ce finished speaking, all the civil and military officials in the court knelt down and said in unison: "I beg the Northern King to ascend the throne!"

Lu Chen glanced at the ministers, then at the princes who bowed their heads and saluted him, and then said calmly: "I am only ninth among the many princes. If I go by the order, I'm afraid I won't be able to turn." Let’s get to that position as King Bei, right?”

Hearing this, cold sweat broke out on the faces of all the princes. Doesn't Lu Chen's words mean that there are other princes in front of him, hindering his ascension to the throne?

Could it be that he wanted to go on a killing spree, right?

At this moment, the second prince quickly stood up and said: "Ninth brother, don't worry, the succession to the throne of Great Xia has long been no longer based on the eldest son's method. The heirs to the throne in recent generations have all been chosen by those who are capable.

"Now that the world is in turmoil, we urgently need a capable person to lead Daxia out of the predicament. Neither I nor the other royal brothers have experience in governing the country. We are not as good as you in both civil and military affairs. I believe that only the ninth brother can make Daxia stronger. , please Ninth Brother please don’t refuse any more!”

As soon as these words came out, the seventh prince also said quickly: "Second brother is right. Now that there are rebels in the south and the demon sect is raging, Daxia has reached a time of life and death. At this time, it needs a capable person to lead Daxia. Get out of this predicament, looking at all the children of my father, only you, the ninth brother, have such ability!"

After the seventh prince finished speaking, other princes also agreed.

After a while, Lu Chen finally said: "Since several royal brothers have recommended me, I won't be pretentious."

"But my father has just left for the west, so I will put aside the matter of his enthronement for the time being and finish my father's funeral first."

"In addition, my father, who was harmed by the Demon Cult, went crazy and became possessed, which eventually led to his death. We must get this debt back."

"From now on, the entire city will be searching for people from the Demon Cult. Anyone who is a member of the Demon Cult will be killed every one they see!"

Hearing Lu Chen's words, all the ministers were shocked.

Lu Chen was searching for the Demonic Cult here and there. He was looking for an excuse for his own liquidation. If someone jumped out to oppose him at this time, he would definitely accuse that person of colluding with the Demonic Cult and then get rid of him directly. (っ◔◡◔)っ

After Lu Chen finished speaking, the ministers immediately shouted in unison: "Long live my emperor, long live long live!!!"

Although Lu Chen has not officially ascended the throne, since Lu Chen has agreed to ascend the throne, he will be the emperor from now on. Daxia's highest power center cannot be in a vacuum for a long time.

Lu Chen said calmly: "Pingshen!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Immediately, Lu Chen led the Jin Yiwei and hundreds of officials directly into the capital.

After entering the capital, Lu Chen immediately ordered various aftermath matters. By the time the matter was dealt with, it was already ten o'clock in the evening.

At this time, Lu Chen, led by Situ Ce, came to the imperial study room where Emperor Xia used to handle government affairs.

After entering the royal study, Situ Ce raised his hands and said to Lu Chen: "Congratulations to your Majesty for achieving your first goal. Your Majesty will surely dominate the world and be powerful all over the world!"

Hearing this, Lu Chen smiled faintly, and then said: "When did the Imperial Master learn to flatter me?"

Situ Ce said: "Your Majesty is now a real dragon, not a horse."

Lu Chen said: "Let's not talk about this for now. I still have some questions that I would like to ask the National Master for advice."

Situ Ce said respectfully: "Your Majesty, please speak. I will tell you everything I know."

"How many great masters are there in the royal family now?"

After hearing this, Situ Ce thought for a moment and then replied: "Your Majesty, there are seven of them in total."

Lu Chen thought for a while, seven grand masters were not too few, and this was after the royal grand masters of the Great Xia Dynasty were cleared by the heavenly beings of Xuanyue Palace.

Thinking about it this way, it seems that other dynasties only have many more hidden great masters.

It’s no wonder that when the Great Wu Dynasty attacked the Northern Kingdom, Emperor Wu was so willing to send two great master generals to attack the Northern Kingdom.

There are great masters, but I don’t know if there are false gods or hidden gods.

At this time, a shadow suddenly appeared behind the pillar in the study room, and then a person appeared in front of Lu Chen.

At this moment, Bai Qingqing, who was personally serving Lu Chen, thought he was an assassin and immediately stood in front of Lu Chen, "Who is it?"

But Bai Qingqing quickly reacted.

This is Emperor Xia's shadow guard.

At this time, the Shadow Guard commander wearing black armor knelt on the ground and said: "Shadow Guard Commander Zhou Hai, pay homage to Your Majesty!"

The Shadow Guard originally belonged directly to Emperor Xia, but now that Emperor Xia is dead, the Shadow Guard has also lost its ownership.

The Shadow Guards are free to a certain extent, and they can leave the capital. However, they have all taken Emperor Xia's poison, and no one knows when the poison will take effect.

So in the end, the Shadow Guards decided to continue to join the new emperor and become his minions. They were all loyal to the emperor anyway, no matter which emperor they were loyal to.

Seeing the Shadow Guard Commander appear, Lu Chen felt happy. Compared to Situ Ce, the Imperial Master, the Shadow Guard was the most trusted person of Emperor Xia. The Shadow Guard must know many things about Emperor Xia.

Now Lu Chen was very curious about what secrets Emperor Xia had.

Thinking of this, Lu Chen glanced at Zhou Hai and used the system to identify his identity.

[Name: Zhou Hai]

[Identity: Commander of the Shadow Guards]

[Strength: Grandmaster Realm]

[Loyalty: 80]

Among the people who met him for the first time, eighty was not low in loyalty. The ministers of the imperial court were generally not even fifty loyal to him. They were just a bunch of twenty-five-year-olds.

Thinking about it, the Shadow Guards are more dependent on the imperial power, so they have such high loyalty to themselves.

Lu Chen said calmly: "Get up!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

At this time, Bai Qingqing was still protecting Lu Chen. Although it was confirmed that he was the commander of the shadow guard, the shadow guard was the former emperor's dog after all. No one knew whether Zhou Hai would take action against Lu Chen.

Lu Chen patted Bai Qingqing's shoulder at this time, "Xiao Bai, don't be nervous, he won't attack me."

After hearing this, Bai Qingqing walked aside.

Lu Chen said to Zhou Hai at this time: "You are the commander of the Shadow Guard. You should know many secrets of my father."

Zhou Hai then asked: "What does your Majesty want to know? I will tell you the truth."

Lu Chen said: "I want to know if my father has any secrets to hide."

Zhou Hai instantly understood what Lu Chen meant, and he immediately replied: "Your Majesty has a secret room, and there are a lot of secrets of the royal family in the secret room."

Lu Chen immediately asked: "Where is it?"

Zhou Hai replied: "Your Majesty, please take the jade seal."

Hearing this, Lu Chen walked to the desk in the study without saying a word and directly took the jade seal in his hand.

At this time, Zhou Hai walked to a bookshelf and took away several scrolls inside. "Your Majesty, please put the jade seal in this hole."

Lu Chen immediately came to the bookshelf and did as Zhou Hai said. At this time, the bookshelf suddenly trembled, and then the bookshelf slowly moved away, and a huge tunnel opening appeared on the ground where the bookshelf originally was.

Zhou Hai then said: "Only the previous emperors have entered the secret room. I don't know what is in the secret room. If your majesty wants to know what is stored in it, you can enter the secret room and check it out."

Hearing Zhou Hai's words, Bai Qingqing hurriedly came to Lu Chen and said, "Your Majesty, be careful there is a trap inside. I will explore the way for you first."

Bai Qingqing still didn't quite believe Zhou Hai. Zhou Hai was the commander of the Shadow Guard, and this status was enough for her to be on guard against him.

Lu Chen thought for a moment, and then said, "You can wait outside first."

Then Lu Chen walked directly into the tunnel.

Seeing that Lu Chen asked her to wait outside, Bai Qingqing couldn't say anything more, so she could only wait quietly at the entrance of the tunnel.

After Lu Chen entered the tunnel, he soon came to a hall in which portraits of previous emperors were hung.

There are bookshelves under each emperor's portrait, and the bookshelves are filled with scrolls.

Lu Chen walked directly under the portrait of Emperor Xia, picked up the scrolls on the bookshelf, and started reading one scroll after another.

These scrolls recorded all the major events that Emperor Xia had done, including how he rose to power, how he became emperor, and even his conspiracies and tricks. It was like writing a diary.

Lu Chen then flipped through these scrolls, and finally found a scroll about his mother.

After reading the scroll, Lu Chen sighed. His mother was really killed by Emperor Xia, and the purpose was naturally for the sacred objects of Xuanyue Palace.

The sacred objects in Xuanyue Palace can help people improve their cultivation, but if they forcibly improve their cultivation, as long as they improve once, their cultivation will not be able to go further in the future.

Among the great masters of the Daxia royal family, several of them used the sacred object from Xuanyue Palace to forcibly improve their cultivation.

After reading the scroll about his mother, Lu Chen no longer stayed in the secret room. Now everything in the palace belonged to him, and he had enough time to read through these royal secrets.

Seeing Lu Chen come out of the tunnel, Bai Qingqing, who was guarding the door, breathed a sigh of relief.

For a period of time after that, Lu Chen came to the secret room almost every day to read the scrolls of the late emperor. These scrolls should have been written by the late emperor himself.

What concerned Lu Chen the most were the scrolls left by the first Xia Taizu. According to Xia Taizu's records, he was able to establish Daxia because of the guidance of an immortal, and the immortal told him that Daxia would definitely give birth to a son of destiny. , one day, Daxia will unify this world and step out of this world.

A large part of the reason why Emperor Xia wanted to revitalize Daxia was that he also read the scrolls of Taizu Xia. Emperor Xia believed that he was the destined person.

Of course, this was what Emperor Xia had thought when he was young. After being the emperor for decades, Emperor Xia gradually realized the shortcomings of Daxia. His dream finally woke up and he returned to reality.

In fact, Emperor Xia was not the only emperor who believed that he was the son of destiny. Since Taizu, many emperors of Daxia believed that they might be the person of destiny.

Lu Chen also felt a little emotional, the dog system is really harmful to people.

He didn't know if Xia Taizu met an immortal, but judging from Xia Taizu's prophecy of the appearance of his destined son, this must be a systematic arrangement.

Lu Chen is now more and more curious about the system. Why has the system been laid out so early? What happened to his time travel?

After reading the scroll left by Xia Taizu, Lu Chen also tried to ask the system. As a result, the system remained silent when asked, and Lu Chen had no choice.

Now he can only take one step at a time. Maybe when he becomes a heavenly being, he will be able to know the secrets of the system. (End of chapter)
