If you don't give up, I'd like to be your adoptive father.
Chapter 1164 Group Transmigration to Another World
Chapter 1164 Group Transmigration to Another World
Jiang Lü did not kneel, but bowed again, saying, "We will all obey Grand Tutor Yu's orders. Whatever arrangements the Grand Tutor makes, we will certainly follow."
Xiao Yu said very honestly, "Originally I had no plans for you. Hu Hai may be incompetent, but he had a three-year imperial mandate."
Your eldest brother, Fusu, is a true sage.
If he were to become emperor during a time of peace, his talent and character would be more than enough.
Therefore, he was sent to plant his flag in Zhao territory.
Even if he fails and cannot defend his fiefdom when the rebels enter Zhao territory, his talent will still earn him a good reputation in Zhao, making the Qin people there feel more attached to Qin.
In short, Prince Fusu's decision to become king in Zhao is beneficial and harmless to both the Qin Dynasty and the Ying clan.
None of you have experience in governing a region, and alas, your fates are beyond your control, so I won't elaborate.
I hope you can stand tall and support the Ying family's eternal legacy, but I dare not have too much hope.
I only hope that you will live safely until the end of the great calamity, so that the late emperor will not die out.
If you believe you have any talents, or have developed specific plans, I'd like to hear them.
Then I'll use divination techniques to predict your future.
If it is feasible, I will certainly open the door wide and help you achieve your wishes.
Jiang Lü's second brother, Ying Wu, couldn't help but ask, "Grand Tutor, what do you mean by our fate? We don't really understand."
Xiaoyu glanced at him and said, "How could you not understand? I made the prophecy publicly in the court back then."
Ying Wu said, "I know the Grand Tutor's prediction about the fate of the Qin Dynasty. But I don't know the specifics about the three of us brothers."
“You three brothers are nothing special. Just like I didn’t give individual fortunes to each of you, but your fates are all in the ‘Heavenly Streets are trampled with the bones of all the nobles’,” said Grand Tutor Yu.
Ying Wu pressed further, "What exactly was the manner of death?"
"So what if you die? Let's talk business, stop with the nonsense. What are your plans?" Grand Tutor Yu asked.
The three Jiang brothers exchanged glances, their expressions somewhat awkward.
There was no plan; they were only thinking about securing a good position when the princes were enfeoffed.
"Grand Tutor, what is missing from your grand plan that we are capable of filling?" Jiang Lü asked.
Xiao Yu sighed, "If you want to become feudal lords, have you chosen a 'prime minister' and a general to protect the country? You can't just go to the Central Plains alone to become a king, can you?"
Jiang Lü said tactfully, "In the past, when the Great Zhou enfeoffed the feudal lords, the prime ministers all came from the capital of the Great Zhou and were appointed by the Emperor."
Grand Tutor Yu said irritably, "Don't you understand the current situation of Great Qin?"
Did they think being made a king was just for enjoying a life of luxury?
You went out to become kings to relieve Xingyang of the pressure from various rebel armies.
You must possess the ability to stand on your own and not become a burden to the court.
She simply felt they were incompetent; if they were granted fiefdoms, they would not only fail to help the Qin Dynasty recover but would actually accelerate its decline, which is why she never considered granting fiefdoms immediately.
Her planned enfeoffment was simply to select a few capable princes and send them out to serve as "prefectural governors" after Xingyang was stabilized.
Similar to the situation at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Liu Biao went to Jingzhou, Liu Yan became the governor of Yizhou, and Liu Dai became the governor of Yanzhou.
The major enfeoffment would only take place after the westward migration.
They are not capable enough to deal with the heroes of China, but they are sufficient to deal with the natives of the wild lands.
Seeing that Grand Tutor Yu was a little angry, Jiang Lü quickly followed suit and said, "Grand Tutor, although we have always stayed in Xianyang and have never governed any region, we have not wasted our years."
Over the years, I have learned a lot from listening to the ministers and officials govern in the imperial court, but I lack practical experience.
Moreover, we all have retainers, including martial arts masters, literary giants, and reclusive scholars from rural areas.
In any case, we won't do any worse than the local sheriff.
Xiao Yu pondered for a moment and said, "Words are not enough. Let's have a test, called 'The Wise King Test'."
It's not limited to just a few of you.
Any prince who is willing to serve the country and has the courage to face the rebels can participate in the 'Examination of Wise Princes'.
The assessment will be held tonight at Zhangtai Palace.
Jiang Lu felt that selecting a king through a public examination was not very dignified.
But he's not even a "king" yet, so what right does he have to express his opinion?
"Grand Tutor, what are the examination items for the Wise Prince? What preparations should we make?"
Xiaoyu said, "There are no specific projects. You really need to prepare well. When you get back, don't mess around. Have a good meal, then get a good night's sleep. After you've recharged and are full of energy, then you can participate in tonight's Wise King Examination."
If one lacks physical strength or mental fortitude and loses a significant portion of the score, it will be too late for regrets.
The three Jiang brothers left with puzzled expressions.
Prince Gao was left alone by Xiao Yu, and the two opened up to each other, exchanging a few heartfelt words.
“I remember my friendship with Your Highness. If it is something truly great, I will certainly not forget Your Highness.”
Sending the prince out to serve as a vassal king is a great adventure.
The chances of success are slim, but failure could cost you your life.
"Your Highness is better suited to be a ruler in times of peace; it is too dangerous to be a king in times of chaos," Xiao Yu said.
Prince Gao sighed, "I know my own limitations without the Grand Tutor's explicit instructions."
They understood even more clearly that the Second Emperor risked his life to govern Xingyang, let alone the King who guarded Xingyang.
The rebellion in the Central Plains originated from the six states of Shandong. The nobles and common people of the six states all hated the Qin people!
If he were to become king of one of the six kingdoms of Shandong, he would likely meet a terrible end.
But I am content to be a carefree prince. My son, however, tells me that fighting for the throne is not only for myself, but also for building an estate for my descendants.
Now that I am a prince, if I do not have the throne, my son will be a "prince" and his son will likely be buried among the nobles, with no chance of rising to prominence.
Why not take a chance now?
Even if I lack ability, I won't blame fate or others in the future.
Xiao Yu comforted him, "Reassure Prince Ying Song. Whether or not Great Qin can avert the tide of fate, he will not lose a royal title. At most, the kingdom will be placed outside of Shenzhou."
The trend of human development is to gradually reduce the weight of Jambudvipa in human affairs.
The future of these barbarian states may not be worse than that of the feudal lords of the Central Plains.
The prince asked in surprise and doubt, "Why is the weight of the Chinese nation in the realm of humanity gradually decreasing? Is there any country that can replace China?"
Xiao Yu said, "The Divine Land is only in China, that won't change, what will change is the weight."
If the Ying clan migrated westward, bringing the wisdom and systems of the Central Plains to the Western Wilderness, wouldn't that increase the importance of humanity in the Western Wilderness?
The overall weight remains unchanged, but the weight of Shenzhou decreases. As the four continents successively experience great development, Shenzhou will still be worthy of the admiration of other nations, but those nations will no longer be considered 'barbaric'.
Prince Gao seemed to be deep in thought, "If developing the four continents can strengthen humanity, then the late emperor would have performed a great service!"
“If he were completely useless, he wouldn’t have become the first human emperor of all time,” Xiaoyu said.
Ying Zheng was truly despicable for sending the Imperial Astronomical Observatory to dig up dragon veins and plunder seedlings for the sake of a prophecy.
However, the fact that Ying Zheng could freely exploit the dragon veins and plunder the Miao people in the barbarian lands was based on one major premise: that the Qin Dynasty had already established its rule in the area.
For example, Qingsong Daotong could plunder the Dao Miao of Xishu, but he could not plunder the Dao Miao of Beihuang Shaman, even though the Shaman longed to be plundered.
The Qin Dynasty's rule over barbarian states often brought them a safe living environment, advanced political systems, culture and doctrines, and even the realm of immortal martial arts. These barbarian states were able to achieve comprehensive development.
Like the Liusha River on the border of Western Sichuan.
Without the Qin Dynasty's efforts to eliminate evil spirits and establish the Water God's Palace, how could the Western and Eastern Sand Regions have achieved their current prosperity and trade?
After seeing Prince Gao off, Xiao Yu summoned Ying Qian, the City God of the capital, and asked him to summon the City Gods of various prefectures and counties to Xianyang to compile the "Book of Life and Death" from all over the country.
Soon, the sun set in the west, and the moon rose high in the sky.
All forty-three princes came, and there were also dozens of "young masters" from the minor branches of the royal family.
Even most of the thirty-seven princesses came.
They didn't come alone; their children were with them.
Xiaoyu was both speechless and happy.
They treated the "examination of the wise king" as a process of sitting in a row and dividing fruit, which left her speechless.
Grand Tutor Yu was pleased that the descendants of the Ying clan had not been completely spoiled and that so many of them were still "ambitious" (unaware of their own mortality).
I'm not afraid of their greed and stupidity, but I'm afraid they'll completely give up and lose all their drive.
"Come in, all of you, and take your seats in the hall in order."
Xiaoyu instructed the eunuchs to open the gates of Zhangtai Palace and let the entire group of people in. Not caring that the floor was too cold at night, she told them to find a comfortable position, either sitting cross-legged or lying on the ground.
"I will use the 'Dream of the Yellow Millet' technique to let you experience another life in your dreams. Life is divided into two stages, which can also be considered two challenges."
The first level is called "Battle Royale in the Capital". You are considered successful if you leave the capital alive. The total score is 100. You need 60 to pass if you leave the capital. The better you perform, the higher your score will be.
The second challenge is called "I Want to Be a Prince". Among you are princes, noblemen, and heirs. Your identities are different, so your starting points are definitely different. In any case, you will be in charge of a region.
The total score is 150 points. You all know how well you performed from your own experience.
If you feel you're not cut out to be a master, you can choose to become a general or a regent, serving as a 'minister' for other princes.
When Grand Tutor Yu entered the room, he spoke these words directly, leaving everyone in the room somewhat bewildered.
Jiang Lü then asked, "Grand Tutor, what is the Great Art of the Yellow Millet Dream?"
Xiaoyu waved her hand and said, "Don't ask too many questions. You'll naturally become familiar with the process after you've experienced it. Now, I'm asking you, are you ready?"
One princess wanted to raise her hand and speak: "Grand Tutor, we're just here to get a title by bringing our child. We're already married and living a good life. We don't want to be 'tested as a wise prince'!"
But they were also afraid that their own children would be kicked out along with them, so they could only sit there nervously.
"Ready, Grand Tutor, please unleash your great magic!"
Grand Tutor Yu stood on the steps of the palace, his hands behind his back. His wide star-patterned robe fluttered without wind, and his large, bright almond-shaped eyes suddenly flashed with a mysterious light. Anyone who met his gaze was involuntarily stunned.
The Dream Demon Chapter of "The Magic Eye Technique".
It blurs the boundaries between the human world and the dream dimension, forcibly pulling people into a dream world.
"Your Highness, news has arrived from Sand Dunes that Emperor Wu is suspected of having passed away, and it is said that he intends to pass the throne to the young prince, Tom. This matter is highly suspicious!"
Just as Prince Jiang Lügang was being dazed by Grand Tutor Yu's demonic eyes, he heard an urgent call in his ear.
It sounds familiar yet unfamiliar.
He subconsciously rubbed his eyes, then froze.
Why are his hands so white? And why is the person opposite him a brown-haired, white-skinned "lower barbarian"?
Well, there are white people in the Pangu world, such as the Rakshasa people of the Rakshasa Kingdom.
According to the symbols of the Central Plains, the greater the difference between them and the people of the Central Plains, the lower their status.
"What is this?" Jiang Lu was about to ask in confusion when suddenly his mind was like a fountain, gushing out a large amount of information.
—Have I transmigrated? Transmigrated into Jimmy, the third prince of the 'Gamba Empire'? Gamba is a lowly, barbaric empire, full of white-skinned demons.
After quickly digesting the new memories in his mind, Lü Bian became bewildered and uncertain, unable to determine whether what he was seeing was a real reality.
He pinched his arm, wincing in pain, and his internal energy circulation was incredibly realistic.
"Your Highness, what's wrong?" asked Edison, an elderly white man in a white robe with gold trim, puzzled.
“I’m fine, please continue.” Looking at the old white man in front of him, Jiang Lu was even more surprised.
—Why does this old man give me a sense of familiarity? He looks a lot like "Mr. Shi Rong" from the prince's mansion in my previous life?
By the way, this Gamba Empire is somewhat similar to the Qin Dynasty of my previous life.
The story of Emperor Wu, who became the number one martial emperor in all the ages of the "Eight Desolations World" by defeating all opponents with the "Imperial Extreme World-Shaking Fist," is somewhat familiar.
Afterwards, Jiang Lu lived in the capital of Gangba for a period of time, which helped him adapt to the new world. He also felt that Gangba was somewhat like a variant of the Qin Dynasty from his previous life.
He secretly called out to Grand Tutor Yu, but received no response.
Every blade of grass, every tree, even a clump of mud, appears so real.
—Could it be that I have really been transported to another world?
Before Jiang Lü's doubts could be dispelled and his beliefs were firm, the young prince Tom returned, bringing with him the body of Emperor Wu!
The old minister Edison's guess was completely correct. Sure enough, something happened at Dune. Emperor Wu died, and Tom deliberately placed abalone on the carriage to cover up the stench of Emperor Wu's rotting body.
But since things had come to this point, he could only accept that Tom would become the new emperor.
To be honest, he had no objection to this, nor did he show any resistance. Tom had the support of ministers, and Tom had even ordered the death of the eldest son of the emperor, who was of higher status than him. Oh dear, why does this feel more and more familiar?
Then, Tom suddenly summoned Lü to the palace and demanded that he commit suicide.
"I have never overstepped the bounds of court etiquette; I have never disobeyed in the imperial court; I have always been careful and cautious in serving the emperor. Why do you say I have disloyal intentions? If you want me dead, you must explain your crimes clearly!" Jiang Lü shouted excitedly.
“The Emperor does not wish to see you. I am merely following orders. Your Highness, please go with dignity!” the guard said.
Jiang Lu cried out three times, "Heavens, I am innocent!" He wept bitterly, filled with grief and indignation, and then drew his sword and committed suicide.
Even after death, his soul lingered above his corpse, and a detached voice echoed in his ears, "Are you content? Do you still want to travel through time?"
"I'm not reconciled, I want to travel through time!" Jiang Lu said without any hesitation.
