Resurrection of the Mystery: Starting from the Clone of the Stone-born Monkey.

Chapter 1 The King of Yue
Daxuan 2nd year, Kyoto, February

Cool breeze, hazy night

A convoy slowly drove out of the mansion and headed towards the street.

The size of the motorcade is quite grand, with thousands of people accompanying it, and there are guards of honor and escorts. In the center of the team, the four-carriage with a black sedan chair and a soap cover is particularly prominent. There is a "Yue" with flying dragons and phoenixes on the flag.
However, at this time, the whole capital is like a giant beast dormant in the dark, and the accompanying people are all silent, only the wheels sparkling and the horses neighing, appearing lonely.

However, as time went by, the sky gradually became clearer, and the capital became more popular.

First of all, the officials of the imperial court, wearing long crowns and holding jade tablets in their hands, gathered at the royal road and went to the morning court in a mighty manner.

Outside the palace, although it was early spring and a little cold, they could not resist the enthusiasm of the people. They walked out of their homes one after another, and the vendors and goons hawked their goods along the street.

The streets of the capital also became lively.

When the dawn breaks, the city is full of pearls, households are full of Luoqi, and the voices of people are full of people, which is very impressive.

Since King Xuan defeated King Wu in Jumu three years ago, King Wu claimed to be the "number one martial god" in the world and refused to be humiliated. He fought bloody battles with Daxuan's army. One man killed 3 people. They fought fiercely for three days and three nights, and finally died from exhaustion. Die, die on the battlefield.

King Wu was defeated, and then King Xuan settled in the Central Plains and proclaimed himself emperor. The Great Xuan Dynasty was established and everything was renewed.

This is a new empire, from top to bottom, from the inside to the outside exudes a vigor and vigor, and everything is competing to develop.

Teams of soldiers armed with swords and guns patrolled the streets and alleys of the capital. Their cold faces were like shining swords, guarding against any criminals who dared to commit crimes in the streets.

The empire is young and has many potential dangers.

A battle-tested veteran patrols the streets with his colleagues to ensure law and order.

Suddenly there was some restlessness in the crowd. The veteran noticed it and moved his eyes. What caught his eye was a large flag embroidered with the word "Yue" with flying dragons and phoenixes.

"King of Yue." The veteran's pupils narrowed.

This is one of the seven kings with different surnames canonized by the emperor.

Before the establishment of Daxuan, it was King Xuan who united other princes and King Wu to fight for hegemony in the world.

Until King Wu's defeat, Emperor Xuan expressed gratitude to the seven princes for their hard work and great contribution in defeating King Wu, and granted him the throne and the country.

This "King of Yue" is one of the seven kings.

The veteran saw the scale of this team of carriages and horses, and suddenly remembered the rumors in recent days:

"King Lao Yue was suffering from injuries and passed away two months ago. Now he needs his son who is in the capital to return to Yue to succeed him."

Thinking of this, the veteran's eyes narrowed.

It can be seen that in the convoy of the King of Yue, the people spontaneously retreated to both sides of the road. However, the expressions of these people in the capital were indifferent, but because of their status as the King of Yue, they lowered their heads and did not choose to look directly.

The place where the King of Yue's motorcade passed seemed to have been pressed on the pause button, and all the lively and noisy sounds on the streets disappeared, as if the prosperity of the capital did not belong to the people of the King of Yue.

Feeling the subtle atmosphere, the veteran's heart sank for no reason.

It seems that after defeating King Wu, they, Daxuan, became alienated from these princes and kings who once fought side by side.

The veteran didn't quite understand the reason for this. After all, he was just a soldier with a grassroots background. He had not read many books and could barely recognize his name.

"Let's go and take care of one or two. Don't let anyone who is short-sighted collide with the King of Yue's carriage."

There was a voice in his ear, and it was the captain calling him to act.

The veteran looked serious, and immediately went with his superior to take care of the King of Yue's trip.

The people and soldiers lined up on both sides of the road, silently waiting for the King of Yue to leave.

Suddenly, a person got off the moving carriage.

This person originally sat on the right side of the Yuewang carriage.

Carriage usually takes three people

The driver stands in the middle, driving the carriage, while the dignified man, the king of Yue, sits on the left.

As for the position on the right, only the close associates or personal guards of the King of Yue can ride.

The person who gets out of the car is the person sitting on the right.

The man wore a waist knife with a shark black leather sheath. It was restrained and dark, but a knowledgeable person could tell at a glance that this sword was worth a lot of money.

This is a middle-aged man with sharp edges and sharp eyes, but his frosty white hair and wrinkles at the corners of his eyes show that he is no longer young.

However, his posture was as straight as a slack, and his strong clothes were bulging with muscles.

The middle-aged man walked like flying. After jumping off the carriage, he came to both sides of the street in two steps.

The soldiers standing on both sides of the street felt a strong breath rushing towards their faces when they saw the man approaching.

"This man is a master of martial arts, I am far behind him!" The soldier swallowed secretly.

Seeing the man approaching, the soldier subconsciously clenched the weapon standing in his hand, bit the bullet, and secretly nervous.

But who would have expected that the middle-aged man looked slightly embarrassed and the first thing he said was:

"Young master said, if you leave the capital, you won't be able to eat these local delicacies."

The soldier was taken aback for a moment, then turned his head to look, and found that behind him was a scallion pancake and a puff pastry roast duck stall.

These are indeed two well-known food stalls in the well of Beijing.

The soldier grimaced, then gave way to the man.

Only then did the middle-aged man take out copper coins from his pocket, and went to the roadside vendors to purchase market snacks.

When the man returned to the frame, his left and right hands were already carrying bags.

When seeing the movement of the king on the left side of the carriage frame, the soldier slightly lowered his eyelids, shifted his gaze, and dared not look directly.

It’s not that we can’t peep into the king’s majesty, it’s just that this king
"Hehe, give it to me. If you leave the capital, you won't be able to eat such crispy duck."

On the left side of the frame, there is a 16-year-old boy, wearing an Eguan Bo belt, embroidered silk clothes, decorated with sun, moon, stars, flowers, birds, fish and insects, extremely luxurious.

But his figure is a little thin, and it seems that he cannot support this luxurious and spacious robe. However, the young man has excellent skin, his face is as white as the bright moon, his nose is high, his lips are bright, his eyes are like ink paintings, and he is full of energy. He is so noble, he can be regarded as a young man in troubled times.

But this son's bright black eyes were staring closely at the food bought by his guards.

This is the successor of the current King of Yue, Prince Wang Ge.

Everyone could see that the heir of King Yue begged for food the moment his personal guard got on the car.

The middle-aged man with gray temples said helplessly:

"Sir, please pay attention to your manners."

He is Prince Wang Ge's personal guard, named Yan Fei. Since Prince Wang Ge was nine years old, he has personally guarded Prince Wang Ge's life safety, but he is said to be the most trusted person of Prince Wang Ge.

"What's the matter with manners? Just give it to me first."

Prince Wang Ge pursed his lips, as if he couldn't wait any longer. The duck with crispy skin is only crispy when it comes out of the pan, and the meat is juicy and elastic.

It will take a long time, the puff pastry will be soft, the duck meat will be old, and the juice will be cold, the flavor will be greatly reduced!
The corner of Yan Fei's mouth twitched. After all, he could do nothing to his master and let the food in his hand be snatched away.

Prince Wang Ge is so sincere and free-spirited that everyone is used to it.

Compared with the shocking words that the young master said a month ago, it's nothing more than taking some food to make a fool of himself.

Yan Fei couldn't help recalling what happened a month ago
That day, Emperor Xuan summoned Wang Ge and said that he was the king of Yue. According to the inheritance system, Wang Ge should return to Yue to inherit the throne.

But who knows what the young master Wang Ge said?
"Happy here, don't think about it."

How could there be such an heir?
Although everyone knows that Yuedi is located in southern Xinjiang, and a large area of ​​territory is uncivilized and wild, far less prosperous than the north and the capital.

But this sentence should not be uttered by you, the heir to the King of Yue!
Absurd, absurd, absolutely absurd.

For a time, the Prince's Song became an interesting private conversation among the princes and nobles of the entire Daxuan Dynasty, and historians even wanted to record this shocking words in the annals of history for the entertainment of future generations.

This is good, it has become a joke of the Daxuan court.

However, others laugh at me for being too crazy, but I laugh at others because they cannot see through it.

Wang Ge expressed his grievance in his heart: "I am a time traveler, is it easy for me?"

Watching the vehicles gradually drive out of the capital gate.

Wang Ge called out in his heart:
"slate."

The next moment, only Wang Ge could see the translucent gray wide stone slab appeared.

The surface of the stone slabs is mottled with vicissitudes of life, giving people an extremely ancient feeling.

However, Wang Ge could only summon the phantom of the slate, but could not do anything to it.

"Ever since I traveled to this world, the phantom of this stone slab has been with me. I thought it was the golden finger of the time traveler, but I didn't expect that not many years later, the stone slab didn't react at all, even though I have now After getting out of house arrest and leaving the capital, there is still no movement at all. How should I use this stone slab?"

Wang Ge sighed quietly, his thoughts moved slightly, and the shadow of the stone slab disappeared, and he couldn't help but recall his experiences since time travel.

In his previous life, he was an ordinary person in Blue Star's hometown. In this life, he had just opened his eyes and became a newborn baby, the third son of the King of Yue.

Of course, at that time, the King of Yue hadn't been conferred the title of King of Yue, he was just a prince who supported his troops and respected himself.

According to the eldest son inheritance system in this world, it stands to reason that the title of king of Yue should not fall to the third son of Wang Ge.

But three years ago, this world was still in a state of war between princes and kings, and the situation was quite chaotic.

Wang Ge's two elder brothers died one after another in this troubled world, so the inheritance right fell on Wang Ge.

However, this title is not so easy to inherit.

The so-called general is outside, and the emperor's orders are not accepted. When the King of Yue could not defeat King Wu and turned to King Xuan, he left his only legitimate son, Wang Ge, as a hostage in the capital.

What is a proton?
It is to put his heir under house arrest in the capital as a hostage, under the eyes of the monarch. This is a bargaining chip for cooperation between the two parties.

Wang Ge was left in the capital by his cheap dad!
It can be said that since he was nine years old, he has basically stayed in the capital without going out, and his every move has been secretly monitored by King Xuan's secret agents!

"It is said that the most ruthless emperor's family, once something rises to the level of power, any blood relatives have to give way."

Wang Ge deeply understood this truth as soon as he traveled to this world.

When he was still young, he spent most of his time thinking about how to activate the power of the slate, and the rest of the time he prayed that his cheap dad would not get angry and engage in rebellion, otherwise he, a proton, would not survive. Save!

Fortunately, his cheap father is still upright, King Xuan maintains the alliance and fights King Wu together.

At the moment when the Daxuan Dynasty was established, the knife hanging around Wang Ge's neck was finally removed.

But new problems emerged.

Wang Ge's cheap father was crowned king and became one of the seven kings with different surnames in the Daxuan Dynasty.

It stands to reason that cracking the earth to seal the king is already the greatest achievement in life. As the successor of King Yue, Wang Ge should be happy.

He didn't do anything, he could become the king by relying on his own blood. This is no longer winning at the starting line, but lying directly at the finishing line.

But the question is, under the inertia of a unified dynasty and the need for centralization, which emperor would not want to have a higher level of power?
And also beware of whether the king with a different surname will rebel?
Even if the kings with different surnames will not rebel this time, what about the next one?

Next time?
What if the emperor's successor is too useless to keep the country and is taken away by a king with a different surname?
Wang Ge is a time traveler. He didn't have any great achievements before time travel. He was just self-sufficient and had no worries about food and clothing. He was an ordinary person who was content and happy.

However, due to the long history of Wang Ge Lanxing's hometown, the compulsory education is in place, the cultural atmosphere is strong, and the information dissemination is developed.

Wang Ge has never eaten pork, haven't he seen a pig running?
In the end, he came to a conclusion that in order to establish a unified dynasty, the power of kings with different surnames would inevitably be gradually weakened, and even the princes themselves would be eradicated by the emperor.

Even if this world has extraordinary military power that one person can defeat thousands of troops, this result is still unavoidable!
This can be fatal!

In Wang Ge's view, the title of King of Yue was probably a reminder to stick on his forehead.

"Cutting down the clan will definitely cut down the clan, it's a matter of time!"

This is Wang Ge's judgment.

When he was a child, he was used as a proton, and the slate that was suspected of being a golden finger could not work. Wang Ge lived every day with fear and fear. Now that he is 16 years old, Wang Ge is still worried about the imperial court cutting the vassalage.

The power struggle is the cruelest, and if you are not careful, it will be Jiuzu Xiaoxiaole.

"Although the slate is not very useful, fortunately, compared to the other six kings with different surnames, as the king of Yue, I pose the least threat to the court."

The so-called as long as I am useless, others will look down on me.

Wang Ge found that compared with the other six kings with different surnames, the young King Yue had the most desolate land, the smallest population, and was located in the southernmost place, far away from the center.

Although it has the specifications of a prince, it is still not as good as other princes.

As for him, the king of Yue, because he lived a proton life since he was a child, he didn't have many opportunities to cultivate his own power team, he had the lowest control over the fiefdom, and his reputation was very poor.

The other six kings with different surnames are all heroes who came out of the blood and fire wars between princes. They hold great power, have many proud soldiers and generals, and their fiefdoms are fertile and fertile. They also occupy many easy-to-defend and difficult-to-attack areas. Passes, or transportation thoroughfares, dominate the Central Plains.

Therefore, compared to the other six powerful vassal kings, Wang Ge is simply a harmless little sheep.

This is why Wang Ge guessed that Emperor Xuan was willing to let him return to his fiefdom. On the one hand, he, the young King of Yue, was too weak to cause trouble.

On the other hand, it also expresses its position to the other six kings with different surnames, and the Daxuan court guarantees the power and status of the vassal king.

Otherwise, as soon as King Lao Yue dies, the court will keep the heir of King Yue under house arrest and take back the King of Yue's fiefdom. Then what will other kings with different surnames think when they see him?
The six kings with different surnames are all cunning and calculating people, they don't need any evidence, as long as they see something wrong, they will immediately act like hedgehogs, hiding their soft and weak points, and exposing their sharp thorns.

This is not conducive to the subsequent reduction of the imperial court.

Promoted by various factors, Wang Ge, who had been under house arrest for several years, finally left the capital and returned to Yue to inherit the throne.

The sky is high and birds can fly, and the sea is wide and fish can leap. However, Wang Ge is also cautious, fearing that the court will be jealous, so much so that he said the words to Emperor Xuan a month ago that shocked the court and the public:

"You are happy here, don't think about going beyond"

In the eyes of others, your father, Yue Wang Rongma, worked hard all his life to build a foundation, but was denied by your heir with a single sentence?
But the more this happened, the more reassured Emperor Xuan was about Wang Ge, and he worked hard to persuade Wang Ge.

It is said that the vassal king is the barrier of the empire. When the world is first established, there must be a vassal king like Wang Ge stationed in the pass to appease the people.

He also said that Wang Ge is not young anymore, he should not be greedy for luxury, but should take up the responsibilities of his parents, guard the frontier, and stabilize the country and society.

Emperor Xuan had advised him so, what else could Wang Ge do?

It can only be the title of the King of Yue who is reluctant to accept it.

Of course, Wang Ge also talked back and forth, saying that Yuedi is too desolate, there are many uncivilized places, and he will live a bad life when he goes back.

Emperor Xuan said that it was easy to handle, and sent carpenters, blacksmiths, farmers, and other technical personnel to Yuedi to guide production development.

You see, my Daxuan court will never treat any meritorious officials badly!
In short, Wang Ge was asked to quickly return to Yue to inherit the fiefdom, for fear that if he stayed in the capital, other vassal kings would think that the court was going to put the Yue King under house arrest and prepare to cut down the vassal.

Only by guaranteeing the power of Wang Ge, the king of Yue, other kings with different surnames will feel at ease, relax their guard and trust the court.

Only by giving up can you gain. As the saying goes, if you can't let go of your children, you won't catch the wolf.

Ever since, Wang Ge led thousands of people, guarding the road, and drove out of the capital.

At the last moment of leaving, Wang Ge turned to look back at the capital and said to himself:
"Farewell, Cage"
