Chapter 246 246
The war lasted for two years, and the royalist princes were not willing to defend the emperor, after all, the consumption of the war was too huge, and the emperor did not have much financial support at all, all at their own expense.
At the end of the following year, the royalist princes signed an agreement with the Duke of Jin to armistice and the royalists guaranteed the emperor's safety, but the emperor had to abdicate.
As a result, the prestige of the imperial family completely declined, and the empire ushered in the era of princes competing for hegemony, and without the army, the emperor was no longer qualified to command the empire.
In order to recover the losses of the war with the Jin Dynasty, the royalists gave the empire important territories, and the territory of the Zhou Empire gradually shrank.
Because there is no army, they dare not refuse the demands of the princes, and the royalists are indeed desperate to protect you, you don't give something meaning, meaning, I'm afraid that the royalists will become the royalists by then.
And the Jin State intimidated the entire empire because of this war, and its national strength ushered in its peak, he began to gradually annex small countries, annexing the vassal states of the entire Central Plains, and the Chu State in the south also began to annex small countries, and the empire ushered in the moment of competition between the two heroes.
At that time, the imperial family of the empire completely lost the ability to influence the princes of the empire, and the two heroes of the empire competed with each other, ending with the division of the Jin State, and the national strength of the Chu State was greatly reduced, and the central government of the Chu State also had no ability to call on the whole country, and the scholars slowly grew bigger in the country.
Although several wars broke out in the Central Plains, the number of population deaths could not be compared with the previous two civil strife, and even the war between Chu and Jin could not be compared.
Emperor Zhou Shengdi ascended to the top floor, and in front of her was a large incense burner, holding three incense sticks in her hands.
These three incense sticks represent the sacrifice to the sky, the earth, and the ancestors!
She inserted the three sticks of incense into the incense burner, and at this time one of the ministers knelt down, and then all of them knelt down, and the whole imperial city resounded, 'Congratulations to the new emperor on his accession to the throne!' ’
From this time, Emperor Zhou Shengdi completely ascended the throne, and the year name also changed from the year name of Emperor Zhou Ren to the year name of Emperor Zhou Shengdi.
Ji Mingyue turned to look in all directions, and saw the black people underground, as well as the princes, she knew that from this period, she had become the most powerful person in this empire.
Of course, this most powerful is only in name, the princes give her a face, she is the most powerful, if you don't give her face, she is nothing.
Since the Duke of Jin forced the emperor to abdicate, the emperor no longer had the ability to command and deter the princes.
Then the enthronement ceremony was the pilgrimage, and after the worship, Emperor Zhou Shengdi came to his court, and the princes stood there one after another.
The princes took out gifts to the emperor one after another, of course, the princes gave the emperor gifts for the sake of face.
Qin Guo took out a sword made of gold and gave it to Emperor Shengdi Zhou, and King Wu of Wei had just ascended the throne, and the things he gave could not be too shabby, after all, he had just ascended the throne, and his face still had to be more showy, and he gave a night pearl, which was worth a lot of money.
And South Korea also gave the emperor a sharp sword, they all know that South Korea's ability to make weapons is the best in the empire, although the value of this sword they built is not as good as that of Qin, but it is very sharp, as long as the hand lightly touches the blade, its hand will be injured, it is sharp to such a realm.
And Zhao Yong of Zhao State presented a white horse, this horse is a Xiongnu BMW, Zhao Yong took a lot of money in order to get this horse, and gave the Xiongnu Shan Yu in exchange to get this BMW.
And what Qi Xiaobai brought up was a four-horse carriage, Qi Xiaobai looked at Emperor Zhou Shengdi: "What Xiaogong dedicated to His Majesty is a jade car!" ”
Qi Xiaobai asked people to pull the car in, the car was very luxurious, Zhou Dan walked forward and touched the carriage: "This is the best mahogany?" ”
Qi Xiaobai nodded: "Zhou Shangqing is right, the material used to build this car is the high-quality mahogany!" ”
"Of course, this car is not only luxurious, but also the horses are very precious!" Qi Xiaobai said on the side.
And Zhao Yong snorted and said, "Hmph, your horse is precious, can it be more precious than my Hun BMW?" ”
"Everyone in the world knows that the Huns are good at raising horses, and the Huns are the kings of horses!" As soon as Qi Xiaobai finished speaking, Zhao Yong said: "Since you said that this is the king of horses, then what kind of horse do you still show, just show off your carriage!" ”
Zhao Yong can be said to be very unhappy with Qi Xiaobai, of course, this stems from Qi Xiaobai's attack on Zhao, although his father Zhao Minggong was not killed by Qi Jun, but this is no different from being killed by Qi Jun.
If it weren't for Qi attacking Zhao, his father Zhao Minggong might have lived a few more years, so it is good to say that his father was indirectly killed by Qi State.
The hatred of killing his father is not shared, and he Zhao Yongneng and Qi Xiaobai can already bear it when they talk here.
Think about your father-killing enemy in front of you, and you haven't gone up to beat him, kill him, and talk to him calmly, isn't this very bearable? If it were an ordinary person, I am afraid that they would have rushed forward and killed the other party.
"Although the horses raised by the Xiongnu are the kings of horses, these four batches of my horses are all from overseas, they can run on the plateau, they can not be tired in the desert, maybe not as fast as the horse you offered by Zhao Gong, but it definitely lives longer than your horse, and it is more resilient and patient!" Qi Xiaobai said to Zhao Yong.
This carriage was a total of four horses, originally eight horses, and the four horses Qi Xiaobai was reluctant to give them, so he insisted on overriding public opinion and got the four horses down.
The original eight-horse-drawn carriage has become a four-horse-drawn carriage, although it is a four-horse-drawn carriage, but because the carriage sets off its proud temperament, it still does not fall out of gear.
This horse is an American horse pulled from the New World on the other side of the Qi country, which was originally a local BMW, and with the high transportation cost, it can be said that a horse is worth ten thousand gold......
Qi Xiaobai sacrificed four horses, and he was already dripping blood......
"From overseas?" Zhou Dan looked at Qi Xiaobai from the side.
"Everyone knows that our Qi country has a huge maritime business, and we trade with foreign races overseas, and these four horses are transported by us from the New World 'American Slave Country' on the other side of the sea!" Qi Xiaobai said to everyone.
On the other side of the ocean, there is a country called the New World called the United States, Qi Xiaobai looks at the records of the Qi country, this America is actually a group of criminals of the British Empire, hooligans, exiled to where the country is formed, and some people are low-level people, who can't live in their own country, where did they go.
Where to go means for a new life, to start all over again, so they call it where the new world is.
Although it is a nice name, there are many places that have not been reclaimed, and have always belonged to uncultivated land, and the whole people of America are in the period of reclaim.
However, many places have not been cultivated, and there are some grasslands or something, where the original ecology is particularly good, so the animals are also very good, creating where the vitality of horses and other animals is unusually stronger than other places.
