Chapter 527: Chapter 19: The Stud Crown Prince
When the Emperor of Great Zhou found out that Yun Bahe had made a breakthrough to beco a Martial Emperor, he was being intimate with a newly favored beauty.
Right then, the Emperor’s complexion changed, and he trembled as he spoke: "You say Yun Bahe has made a breakthrough?! How is that possible? He was clearly a cripple, how could he have made another breakthrough! Quick, send soone to the Yun Residence. No, soone co, I shall go to the Yun Residence myself."
Martial Emperor, that is a Martial Emperor.
Great Zhou... it should be said, the Five Great Countries, have not had a Martial Emperor for many years.
The existence of a Martial Emperor alone could ensure Great Zhou keeps its borders in peace for decades.
Now, the only thought the Emperor of Great Zhou harbored was that even if he had to plead, he needed to bring Yun Bahe back.
When the Emperor of Great Zhou arrived at the Yun Residence hastily accompanied by a group of court officials, the vast Yun Residence was already empty, with no trace of Yun Bahe to be found.
The two large doors of Yun Residence were wide open, eerily empty, as if a split mouth laughing mockingly, scoffing at the Emperor of Great Zhou for his inability to see the truth.
"What! You said Great Zhou Yun Bahe made a breakthrough!" This news, like growing wings, flew to Tang Yuan and Hou Qin.
Yun Bahe had beast blood poison lurking inside him for a long ti, and he was already sixty years old, logically there should have been no possibility for recovery, but he not only recovered, but also made a breakthrough.
Within just three short years, Great Zhou not only gained a new Martial Saint but even a more astonishingly powerful Martial Emperor.
The person most astounded by this news was the Emperor of Great Zhou.
Three years ago, due to Yun Bahe being afflicted by beast blood poison, he beca a cripple. Given Yun Bahe’s age, there was absolutely no likely chance for recovery.
The Emperor of Great Zhou thought that having Yun Cang Lang was already a miracle.
Miracles absolutely do not occur a second ti, yet...the Yun Residence once again proved to the world the na of a genius.
"Great Zhou Yun Bahe beca a Martial Emperor?" Among the nations, particularly Hou Qin, received the news of Yun Bahe’s breakthrough the fastest.
In the Golden Throne Hall of Hou Qin, a group of court officials stood divided to left and right.
A stern-faced iron-masked king was sitting regally on the dragon throne, and beside him on the right stood another person, the very Crown Prince of Later Qin, Dugu Xiu.
Among the Five Great Countries, the one where the Crown Prince can stand beside the reigning monarch is only Hou Qin.
This shows how solid Dugu Xiu’s position is in the heart of the Emperor of Later Qin.
"Your Majesty, Yun Bahe has made a breakthrough, but he handed over his Commander Seal and left Yujing several days ago," the Military Departnt’s spy brought back the most accurate ssage.
"Ye Chengtian cunning his entire life, this ti, really was blinded by the eagle," Emperor Qin Dugu Sheng was initially stunned. After learning the whole situation, a schadenfreude spread across his face.
Martial Emperor, oh, Hou Qin, by rely losing a Martial Saint Tian Quezi, the warrior realm of Hou Qin experienced quite a significant earthquake. Now, their old foe Great Zhou has directly lost a Martial Emperor."
"It looks like the ti for the destruction of Great Zhou is not far away, Xiu’er, what do you think?" The Emperor of Post Qin looked delighted as he turned to Dugu Xiu.
The Dark Crown Prince, as if deep in thought, the Emperor had to ask twice before he ca back to his senses.
"Father Emperor, I also think the sa," the Dark Crown Prince withdrew his thoughts.
With Yun Bahe leaving, Yun Cang Lang establishing the Hunting Corps, the only one left in the military of Great Zhou now is Marquis Weiyuan, this man’s strength isn’t frightening and he’s a duplicitous person, subduing him would be very easy.
But the Dark Crown Prince thought that the Emperor of Great Zhou was not as simple as one would imagine.
If he were truly foolish, how could he have distinguished himself among all the princes back then and beco the Emperor of Great Zhou?
"Prince, you seem a bit distracted today," Dugu Sheng noticed that Dugu Xiu appeared sowhat absent-minded.
No man knows his son better than the father, Dugu Xiu had never been like this today at the court before.
"Father is overthinking it, I was just thinking about a Combat Skill I practiced this morning," Dugu Xiu responded.
"That’s good then, Xiu’er, you are twenty this year, it’s ti to establish your Crown Princess Consort. Did you consider carefully about that marital proposal I ntioned to you a few days ago?" Dugu Sheng was very satisfied with this Crown Prince of his.
He and the Emperor of Great Zhou were both emperors of the two great nations, but the prince he raised was far better than Ye Chengtian.
Ye Chengtian had three Crown Princes; each was worse than the last. The first was blind, the second incompetent, and the third is just a child now.
In the eyes of Emperor Qin, the fate of Great Zhou had run out, and in a few years, Post Qin will surely annex the territories of Great Zhou.
"Father, I am still considering," Dugu Xiu declined.
"This is nonsense, you cannot establish an heir if you do not have a Crown Princess Consort. Besides, no one is more suitable to be your Crown Princess Consort than the Princess of the Donghuang Dynasty," Dugu Sheng was sowhat dissatisfied.
Dugu Sheng was quite pleased with Dugu Xiu.
Only one thing, the number of won in Dugu Xiu’s harem was not plentiful.
As the Emperor of Hou Qin, Dugu Sheng had always believed that only having enough won can produce excellent heirs; his harem contained more than one thousand five hundred concubines and female servants, not including so aged and faded palace maids, and he fathered over a hundred children.
Since Dugu Xiu beca the Crown Prince at thirteen, Dugu Sheng had granted him many beauties, along with so beauties sent by his subordinates from their territories, amounting to nearly two hundred won. Even so, in Dugu Sheng’s eyes, the number of won in Dugu Xiu’s harem still seed insufficient.
The won of Dugu Xiu’s harem had borne him two sons and one daughter, but none of them possessed the talents that matched their father, Dugu Xiu.
Moreover, in these past three years, none of Dugu Xiu’s concubines had conceived or given birth to an heir, which deeply disappointed Dugu Sheng. Ultimately, he believed it was because these won lacked the proper bloodline and talents. As his father, Dugu Sheng had exhausted all thods, seeking out noble families from various nations and even princesses, and finally, he had set his sights on the only Princess of the current Donghuang Dynasty, Donghuang Lingling.
Donghuang Lingling was the sole noble female of the current Donghuang Dynasty.
Her status was illustrious, and it was said that she also possessed exceptional Magic Talent.
Although the Donghuang Dynasty was no longer the empire of the past, it is still considered the only legitimate dynasty on the continent.
The young Emperor of the Eastern Capital even has a status above the emperors of the Five Great Countries, being the only true Emperor recognized by the subjects of the entire continent.
In Emperor Qin’s mind, a plan had long been considered; if Crown Prince Dugu Xiu marries her, it will gain the support of the Donghuang Dynasty, raising the status of Hou Qin.
If it had been the forr Dugu Xiu, as long as it was sothing beneficial to his position and Hou Qin, he would have readily agreed without hesitation. After all, it was rely a Crown Princess Consort for show.
If she was beautiful, she would be just another beauty in the harem, and if she was unattractive, then simply ignore her forever, as it was rely the title of marrying a Princess Donghuang.
But this ti, to Dugu Sheng’s surprise, Dugu Xiu said he needed to consider it.
This considering had lasted half a month, and even until today, there had been no response.
