"Haha, you think too much. In fact, they know more than you do." Tang Ansheng said, "In terms of knowledge and insights alone, the worst of them is better than you."

"Ok?"

Xia Mingyang was shocked. Ever since she read the books Tang Ansheng gave her, she always thought that her knowledge and insights were second only to Tang Ansheng's.

How come four random people are stronger than her?

Novel No. 8

With this doubt, she looked down.

In a short while, she finished reading.

Tang Ansheng said, "Have you finished reading it?"

"Ah."

Xia Mingyang said: "I didn't expect so many people would agree with me."

"The lower class people agree, but the middle class and above are mostly against it, and the higher the status and the more money they have, the louder the opposition."

Tang Ansheng said: "But look at the numbers. Only one person out of a hundred is against it. What does that mean?"

“Does this mean that among a hundred people, one is richer?”

Tang Ansheng shook his head and then told her:

"When 99% of the world's people trust you and think you are the most noble hero and the greatest emperor, do you think you are wrong?"

Xia Mingyang understood a little, "Yes, then it can't be wrong."

"Master Zhou, I understand. I killed too few people. If I killed more, it wouldn't be just one person out of a hundred who opposed me."

"It's only one person in a thousand who opposes, or even one person in ten thousand."

"We haven't killed all the aristocratic families and corrupt officials yet."

"Master Zhou, I'll take my leave first."

"..."

Looking at the other person's departing back, Tang Ansheng seemed to be hesitant to speak.

"Is that what I mean? I guess so, yeah, that's it."

Children can be taught!

Tang Ansheng stood up, took out a full body armor from the treasure house of the imperial palace, and put it on.

Then he picked up a musket and played with it.

"I've always wanted to be the best among all the enemies, but I didn't expect that I would have the chance now."

"Let's go to the Tiger-Inlaid Army in the north first."

"Da da da!"

A terrifying and ferocious figure walked out of the palace and disappeared into the night.

…………

"Haha, Your Highness, the First Prince, we will attack the city tomorrow and we will definitely take it."

"Hey, General, can we still call you His Highness?"

"Ah, judging by my memory, Your Majesty, it should be Your Majesty."

In the big tent, several figures were laughing loudly, looking very uncomfortable.

Chapter 8 The Protagonist (k, monthly ticket requested)

The eldest prince Xia Qiangguang did not expect that he would be closest to the throne at this moment.

He had originally thought that since he was the eldest prince and his mother's family was powerful, it was natural for him to become the emperor.

But who would have thought that after so many years, not only the emperor, but even the prince had not been conferred the title.

Yes, not only did his cheap father ignore the affairs of state, he was even worried that enthroning a prince would affect his ruling position, so he kept dragging it on.

Is there a crown prince in this world who has been in office for twenty years... No, the eldest prince?

"This prince has long wanted to rebel, kick the old immortal down, seize the throne, and become the emperor himself."

The eldest prince Xia Qiangguang sat in the main seat and thought silently, while looking at the other three people in the big tent.

The old man standing next to him was his confidant who had watched him grow up, and he was a second-rank master.

The other party is responsible for his daily life and safety.

The person sitting not far away, wearing armor, with gray hair, and an elderly man, is General Zhao Yu, the Zhenbei General, a first-class master.

These 100,000 Tiger-embellished troops are controlled by the other party.

However, Mr. Zhao is already old and not well-known among the first-class masters.

Mr. Zhao is loyal to Da Xia and has a long history of military exploits. He is like a military god of Da Xia and has a great reputation in the army.

But sometimes having a high reputation is not a good thing, as it can easily arouse suspicion from people above you.

In order to weaken his influence, the eldest prince Xia Qiangguang volunteered to go to the north to guard the border.

The emperor at that time, Xia Hengzhuang, did not think too much about it and agreed directly. The ministers who had their own ideas did not dare to say anything more when they saw this.

As for the others, how could they know that the General Zhenbei was originally the eldest prince's man.

The other party is loyal to Da Xia, but also desires power. As the eldest prince, Xia Qiangguang should have inherited the throne according to the legal system, and his mother's family has influence in the court.

If there is support from General Zhenbei, the throne can be said to be secure.

As for the young man standing next to him, he was the grandson of General Zhao Lao, the Zhenbei General—Zhao Lei, who served as the vanguard officer.

"How come when I woke up, my father passed away and I was crowned the emperor?"

"Although it's sudden, this prince likes this feeling."

After taking a quick look inside the tent, the eldest prince Xia Qiangguang felt a little happy.

He said, "We are all family, so there is no need to beat around the bush. Mr. Zhao, what is the current situation in the capital?"

General Zhao of Zhenbei stroked his beard and said, "Lei'er, you tell me about this."

"Yes, General."

Zhao Lei took a step forward and said, "Your Majesty..."

"Well, just call him Your Highness." Although the eldest prince Xia Qiangguang was happy with him addressing him that way, he still asked him to change his words.

"Things haven't been accomplished yet, so don't let people talk about it."

Zhao Lei paused, then looked at his old man, and when he saw him nod, he said, "Yes, Your Highness."

"I have disguised myself these past few days and sneaked into the capital, and I discovered the following strange things."

"Oh, tell me about it." The eldest prince Xia Qiangguang nodded.

"First of all, after His Majesty passed away, it was not the Fifth Prince who ascended the throne, but Princess Changming..."

"What?" The eldest prince Xia Qiangguang was stunned, and even Mu Lao, who was calm and composed beside him, had a flicker in his eyes.

General Zhao, the Great Zhenbei, showed no expression. Judging from his appearance, he must have known the result long ago.

"It has never happened before that a woman ascends the throne and becomes an emperor."

"What does my fifth brother think? Give the throne to someone else?"

"Could it be some sinister plot?"

The eldest prince Xia Qiguang thought: "No, no, if the fifth brother ascends the throne and makes a solemn promise, the ministers in the court will support him."

"But Princess Changming is a woman, not a legitimate woman, and no one will support her."

Xia Qiangguang's eyes flickered slightly, but he still signaled Zhao Lei to continue.

Zhao Lei said: "The second is that the ministers in the court are close to..."

"Almost what?"

Could it be that he is almost supporting Princess Changming?

This is not in compliance with the law!

Zhao Lei took a deep breath and said, "Almost all of them died. The few ministers who were still alive were locked in prison cars and paraded through the streets."

"hiss!"

The eldest prince Xia Qiguang took a deep breath and said, "What a cruel method! Isn't this cutting himself off from the court? What is Fifth Brother thinking?"

“Not only that, any noble families in the capital who showed resistance were slaughtered.

"hiss……"

Xia Qiangguang felt that he had absorbed all the cool air in the tent.

He didn't expect that what the other party did was crazier than the last.

Killing a minister is just to cut oneself off from the court.

But to massacre the aristocratic families would be to cut oneself off from the world.

You still want to be an emperor? Go home and farm.

"How is the defense of the capital city?" asked Xia Qiangguang, the Grand Emperor's son. This was the issue that worried him the most.

"Your Highness, the garrison is the same as usual. They don't seem to be worried at all about the enemy's approach."

"Is this... the Empty City Strategy?"

The eldest prince Xia Qiguang looked at the general Zhenbei and asked, "Mr. Zhao, what do you think?"

"Your Highness, I believe that these actions are a manifestation of the Fifth Prince and Princess Changming's increasing madness. There is nothing to be afraid of."

"The one we really need to be wary of is His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince who leads the Tiger Might Army."

"Yeah, indeed."

Now it seems that it only takes a blink of an eye to capture the capital, but in addition to his army, there is another group returning to the capital to defend the king, led by his fourth brother.

"But please rest assured, Your Highness. The Tiger Army has not fought for many years and its military discipline is lax. If a fight really breaks out, even if the enemy has three or five times as many troops as us, we will still be defeated."

"Not to mention that our forces are equal now. As long as we are the first to attack the capital and occupy the palace, the enemy will be powerless to turn the tide."

The eldest prince Xia Qiguang nodded: "Of course I believe in Mr. Zhao, you are the military god of our Great Xia."

"Fourth brother, you are still one step behind."

The two were talking happily, and the vanguard officer Zhao Lei didn't say much.

In fact, there was one thing he didn't say, which was that he saw many people who seemed to be refugees outside the city.

The reason why I say "seems" is that the other party is dressed like a refugee, but his appearance is not as skinny as ordinary refugees. Instead, he is full of energy.

After he entered in disguise, he found that these people were all refugees, and the reason they did not starve to death seemed to be because of a certain "True Lord who saves the suffering and saves the evil".

Legend has it that the other party is a real immortal from heaven, who saves people from suffering.

Zhao Lei naturally didn't believe these words and thought they were misleading by a certain religious sect.

He continued investigating and found that many refugees were assigned to a certain place in the city to make something.

He followed all the way, but when he got to the place, he didn't go any further because of the guard problem.

Fortunately, the other party had no intention of covering up completely. From the refugees who came out, he learned that the other party was making something called a firearm.

However, the raw materials are scarce, the production is difficult, and the output is very low.

He also looked at the firearm and found that it was even worse than ordinary hidden weapons.

"Forget it, they may just be rare items, not firearms, and not as good as ordinary hidden weapons."

"It doesn't shoot far, it's not accurate, and the production is rare. It's just a gimmick and it's not worth showing off."

"There are other strange weapons, but they are not well guarded. I guess they don't care about them themselves."

"It's better not to disturb His Highness and Grandpa's fun."

"After we capture the capital, I'll go take a look."
