Chapter 1 "The People?"

Feng Wang frowned slightly.

He had thought that Han Chang Gong would speak of the nation’s fortune, military strength, land fate, hidden dragons, martial arts sects, and so on, but he did not expect that he would suddenly mention the people.

"I have lived in Fengdu for forty-three years..."

Han Chang Gong walked to Feng Wang's side, held the railing, and said softly:

"San Niang from the front street often sends some vegetables to the Qintian Jian (Directorate of Astronomy). She likes to sing, but she sings a little off-key, so I never liked to listen... Niu Er is a ruffian but the most filial to his old mother. To cure his mother's illness, he sold himself into servitude. A tall, burly man, he spends his days humbling himself...

"Old Lady Li has lived for more than sixty years, with children and grandchildren all around. She loves to gossip, and although she's a bit of a busybody, she's easy to get along with... Zhang Da Yong, who served as a soldier for a few years before returning home because of a broken leg, has worked diligently all his life. He only married at forty and had a big, fat son last year...

"Zhao Da, who sells steamed buns, rushes about every day, making a living for his family, and also likes to give a few buns to neighbors in need..."

"They have no special abilities, not to mention martial arts, some don't even have a skill, but they still try to live..."

Feng Wang listened quietly.

He had never come into contact with these people. Even decades ago when he was an unpopular prince, he was still a great figure out of reach for ordinary people.

In the past, when he toured the various states, he never had contact with the real common people.

Listening to it, he found it a bit interesting.

A trace of sorrow flashed across Han Chang Gong’s face.

With the art of Qi Observation, he had seen more death than anyone else in the world, and far too many terrible disasters.

However, seeing a lot did not mean becoming numb.

For more than two years, when he truly saw people coming and going on the long street, all facing mortal tribulation, his heart was still touched.

The Qi fate of people has traces to follow, just like the trajectory of the sun and moon, and the changes in stars, but seeing it does not mean that one can change the Qi fate with a flick of the fingers. He could deduce the nation's fortune, but he could not change the death tribulation of millions of people out of thin air.

Han Chang Gong turned to look at Feng Wang, his expression calm and somewhat indifferent:

"They are also living people. Your Majesty, have you asked for their opinions..."

"Han Chang Gong."

Feng Wang shook his head slightly, his expression a little cold:

"What do you want to say?"

"People all have Qi, which gathers to form fortune. The nation's fortune is the gathering of millions of people, and the turmoil of the nation's fortune is closely related to everyone..."

Han Chang Gong suddenly raised his head, his eyes shining like stars:

"I want to ask Your Majesty, before you take their lives, have you asked them? Are they willing!"

A storm seemed to rise on the viewing platform, and the huge royal city seemed to echo with the aftermath.

Below the viewing platform, countless soldiers came in a hurry, only to be stopped by Yu Tian.

Whoosh~~~

In the midst of the storm, Feng Wang's clothes fluttered, and looking at Han Chang Gong, who was close at hand, his face suddenly darkened:

"Are you questioning me?!"

His aura suddenly subsided, and Han Chang Gong regained his composure: "Consider it so."

"Then I will tell you!"

Feng Wang's clothes fluttered, and his eyes seemed to light up with fire, but his voice was extremely indifferent:

"The will of the weak is never valued, whether in Da Feng, the Jinlang Kingdom, Da Yan, or the other countries, whether in the present or the past, it has always been the same..."

"Da Feng has hundreds of millions of people. Can you ask them one by one?"

Finally, Feng Wang's tone softened:

"Han Qing, what's wrong with a temporary sacrifice in exchange for eternal peace?"

"Eternal peace..."

Han Chang Gong lowered his eyes.

Besides heaven and earth itself, what else is eternal?

The sun and moon still have their waxing and waning, and mountains and rivers will change. What certainty does Feng Wang have? Why is he so confident?

"That's right, eternal peace..."

Feng Wang smiled faintly, looking at Han Chang Gong's eyes with great sincerity:

"What about great disasters and tribulations? If this is successful, and the dynasty collapses, I can reshape it with a wave of my hand. In the future, there will be no rebellious people in the world, no martial artists who will bring disaster to the country, and no madmen who will disrupt the law.

"What's wrong with a temporary disaster in exchange for tens of thousands of years of peace in the future? How is it not beautiful?"

Since ancient times, even during the heyday of a dynasty, when the founding emperor was alive, he could not truly subdue the world. The aristocratic families and martial arts sects were hidden dangers in the hearts of countless emperors throughout the ages, and they could never be resolved.

Even if a wise ruler appeared in the dynasty, he could suppress them for a lifetime, but they would only lie dormant and emerge afterward.

They were never truly able to subdue the martial world.

This was because of the existence of the divine meridians.

The divine meridians not only allowed one person to become an army, but their lifespan was as high as three hundred years. Historically, there had been emperors who achieved divine meridians, but even if they exerted their power for three hundred years, the world still did not change.

That was why Da Feng's Grand Ancestor sealed the Dragon King Armor.

It was to use the power of the celestial divine weapon to suppress the martial world and deter the world!

The completely refined celestial divine weapon would become the divine weapon passed down from generation to generation in Da Feng, but the weapon master was not available in every generation. Each generation of Feng Wang would wield the world's strongest martial power and the strongest country.

They would surely become the master of the vast land, and none would dare to disobey their royal orders!

"People live for a hundred years, and even the divine meridians only last for three hundred years. How can you talk about tens of thousands of years?"

Han Chang Gong remained unmoved.

He was proficient in the art of Qi Observation. Although he could not observe Feng Wang's Qi under the nation's fortune, emperors who lost their countries had never had a good death since ancient times. How easy was it to make a comeback?

He had not even secured his current gains, so how could he talk about tens of thousands of years, or eternity?

"Han Qing, can't you trust me one more time?"

Upon hearing this, a touch of desolation appeared on Feng Wang's face: "Just like back then, when I trusted you..."

Han Chang Gong was a little moved, but then sighed:

"Your Majesty only speaks of the past, but now you don't trust Han Chang Gong..."

Feng Wang was silent.

On the viewing platform, a moment of silence fell.

In the distance, Yu Tian, ​​looking at the two people on the viewing platform, was also frightened.

He had never seen Feng Wang show such tolerance to anyone. Han Chang Gong's position in Feng Wang's heart was higher than he had imagined.

"Forget it, forget it."

After a long silence, Feng Wang sighed and spoke first.

He glanced at Han Chang Gong, then turned to look at Fengdu City in the night:

"You will resign as the head of the Qintian Jian (Directorate of Astronomy) and go to travel the world, which will not be in vain for our decades of friendship as ruler and subject..."

"Has Your Majesty developed a murderous intent towards me?"

Han Chang Gong gripped the railing, his expression calm:

"But Your Majesty has forgotten what kind of person Han Chang Gong is... Han Chang Gong was born as a commoner, has seen much of the world's suffering, but does not yearn for wealth and glory, and naturally, is not afraid of life and death..."

"You!"

Feng Wang's pupils shrank, and a sense of foreboding rose in his heart.

He knew Han Chang Gong very well and immediately sensed something was wrong.

He immediately reached out and firmly grabbed Han Chang Gong's shoulder: "What do you want to do?"

He had a deep understanding of Han Chang Gong, and he instantly sensed something was wrong.

With the eruption of his aura, he instantly controlled Han Chang Gong, but this was also because Han Chang Gong had no intention of resisting at all.

"How could Han Chang Gong be the kind of person who would assassinate the king?"

Allowing Feng Wang to grab his shoulder and restrain himself, Han Chang Gong pointed to Fengdu City under the red moon, which seemed to be draped in red:

"Since Your Majesty does not care about the soldiers and civilians of this city, then disperse the fortune to the people and preserve the last bit of Da Feng's Qi fate!"

Crack!

Feng Wang instantly crushed Han Chang Gong's shoulder bone, and his expression changed drastically.

Then he heard a earth-shattering explosion.

Rumble!

With Han Chang Gong's casual finger, it seemed that thousands of auras rose from Fengdu City in the night.

The rays of light, some red and white, some yellow and gray, were either connected to each other or rose independently.

In an instant, it seemed to illuminate the world!

Feng Wang's face changed wildly, and he saw that the rays of light intertwined, forming an incredibly three-dimensional and complex network that seemed to envelop the entire Fengdu City!

Looking down from above, it looked like the head of a giant dragon roaring to the sky!

However, in the eyes of the many armored soldiers under the viewing platform, they only saw Feng Wang suddenly erupt in anger, crushing Han Chang Gong's shoulder with a single blow, grabbing his neck, and lifting him high.

Han Chang Gong, with his divine meridian body, did not resist at all.

They could not see the rays of light intertwined in the entire night sky.

But Yu Tian's expression also changed drastically, and he rushed into the viewing platform.

"What are you doing?!"

Feng Wang strangled Han Chang Gong's neck, and his majestic true Qi rose a hundred feet into the air like wolf smoke, stirring the clouds in the night sky.

He was not proficient in Feng Shui and Qi fortune, but this scene made him feel very uneasy!

"Cough cough..."

Han Chang Gong had difficulty breathing and let out intermittent laughter:

"Your Majesty, as ruler and subject, you can kill me, but I will not harm you... The nation's fortune is dispersed among the soldiers and civilians in the city. From now on, the country will be destroyed if the city is broken and the people die, and the country will be here as long as the city and people are here!

"Unless all the soldiers and civilians in the city are dead, no one can cut off my Da Feng's Qi fortune, even...

"You!"

"Han Chang Gong!"

Feng Wang's eyes suddenly turned scarlet, and an unprecedented killing intent filled his heart:

"Stop, stop all of this!!!"

"Cough cough..."

Han Chang Gong looked up at the dazzling Qi fortune network, a smile on his face:

"It's too late..."

Roar~~~

Before he could finish speaking, he heard a substantial dragon roar explode in the hearts of Feng Wang and everyone in Fengdu City whose divine sense was strong enough to perceive the changes in Qi fortune!

It seemed that the majestic Qi fortune dragon head roared to the sky, spitting out something.

In the next instant, the mighty Qi fortune current, like a dragon, reversed!

Spreading from the royal city to the entire city!

"What happened? The celestial phenomena and Qi mechanism changed..."

"Could it be a divine meridian attack?"

"Qi mechanism changes, that is... the nation's fortune?"

All the experts in Fengdu City who could sense the changes in Qi mechanism were awakened.

"What's going on..."

Huang Pu woke up in horror in the Qintian Jian (Directorate of Astronomy).

He jumped out of the room, climbed to the top of the building, and his expression changed wildly as he looked up:

"The Qi fortune dragon head? Who is it, what kind of person, actually shook Da Feng's nation's fortune???"

Qi fortune is ethereal and cannot be shaken or manipulated by human power. Even if you have the power to uproot mountains, you can never shake Qi fortune, because a person's Qi fortune is like fate, and a nation's fortune is even more like the life of a country!

"So spectacular..."

On the eaves of a restaurant, An Qisheng sat diagonally, drinking wine. Seeing the huge dragon head intertwined with the Qi fortune in the sky, he could not help but praise:

"What a Han Chang Gong!"
