The 15th year of Great Ming s Zhaowu.
The three rebel kings of the South surprisingly elected a single ruler, granting him the honorific title of King Wen of Zhou, while the original three kings became the great generals under King Wen of Zhou. When this news broke our, it sent shockwaves throughout the world.
if the southern rebels had maintained their state of three mutually independent kings, the integration of the southern rebels would have taken some time, creating a chance for the Great Ming to restore its ruling norm.
However, now that the southern rebels have suddenly unified under the so-called King Wen of Zhou, the situation in the Great Ming is precarious.
In other words, at this moment, the political winds have completely changed.
This event happened too suddenly, no one knew what had actually transpired in the South, but after the unification, the three generals immediately each led an army, attacking the north simultaneously.
From then on, the Southern rebels gained momentum like a bamboo breaking through. After Emperor Zhaowu, Ye Chen, received the battle reports at the Great Ming Capital, it was the final straw, lie was left with no alternatives.
He could only muster his troops, preparing for leading the troops in person. All the people in the world watched Yanhe River with trepidation.
It was there that the final showdown between the Great Ming Dynasty and the rebel army was likely to take place. It was at Yanhe where the Lifeless Sect had won their decisive battle against the Dayan Dynasty, establishing a solid foundation for the Great Ming Dynasty.
But who could have imagined at that time that only fifteen years later, history would repeat itself, causing turmoil in the world. Regardless, this battle was destined to be earth-shattering, it will decide the fate of rhe world.
The Capital.
The Imperial Palace.
At this moment, within the Grand Temple, Ye Chen and Ye Kai were sitting opposite each other, with food and wine set before them. Outsiders might find it unimaginable that at this critical juncture of the Great Ming Dynasty, the two of them could remain so composed, conversing casually.
“When 1 led the Lifeless Seer into the Capital back then, did you harbor any ill feelings towards me?’1
Ye Chen suddenly asked this question. Caught off guard, Ye Kai paused, bur then shook his head and laughed.
“At that time, I did have some resentment, but nor against you. I was resentful of my father, the ex-emperor, for leaving me such a mess to deal with. However, 1 was also looking forward to seeing you make a fool of yourself. As the leader of a rebellious heretic sect who happens to bear the Ye Family bloodline, I thought you would surely be left in a state of confusion in the face of worldly affairs.
But in rhe end, it was I who got a taste of humble pie. You did very well, far better than 1 could ever have. I accepted my lot then and started managing the affairs of the White Lotus Sect, casting a shadow over the Ye Family.”
“It sounds like you really admire me. Ha-ha-ha…”
“Well, if you say so. I wonder if that mysterious elder will show up during your personal expedition?”
