Chapter 1094 (2/2)

Tens of millions of voices gathered, like they were in unison as it rang about the clouds. Then, it became a little chaotic.

“The Heavens bless Great Gan which is why we have a Saint Ruler!”

“Great Gan has prosperous people, the ancient three emperor rule had appeared all because of the Saint King!”

“Bless our King for winning all wars!”

Zong Shou sat in the carriage and his lips twitched.

In comparison to the first time that he entered the city, the words people said felt closer the last time.

Now they were more respectful, but instead, their words made him feel a little weird…

Kong Yao was happy when she heard this and she had a joyous expression.

In the past, her goal was to support a wise ruler and command huge troops to sweep the battlefield to leave her name in history, so that her father’s divination would come true.

Although she had joined Great Gan and for some reason had became Zong Shou’s concubine, her wish had never changed.

Now, her husband was recognized by all the people, which made her feel much happier than others praising her.

However, she noticed the weird look that Zong Shou had and looked over curiously, “Husband, you are respected by all because of your morals and ruling ability. Why does Ruler not look happy?”

Zong Shou shook his head and he didn’t know how to explain.

“Too much respect is not a good thing. If there is only one voice among tens of millions it will cause problems.”

He didn’t dare to say that at that moment when everyone cheered, he had a drunk feeling.

He also knew that his prestige in Gantian Mountain had reached its peak now.

No matter what he wanted to do, people would listen to him and no one would go against him.

Luckily, he wasn’t someone who craved power. However, due to special reasons, he took over to be the Ruler. What he searched for was still the peak of the sword.

This was why after a moment he came to his senses.

However, he also felt that he and the entire Great Gan was in a really dangerous state.

Each word and action could influence the direction of Great Gan. The problem was he himself wasn’t sure which things were good for Great Gan and which policies would harm it.

He sighed and had made his mind up. From now on, he couldn’t say anything about governance, otherwise, he might cause huge problems.

Maybe he should listen to what Zhang Huai said and move the capital. The people in Gantian Mountain City really respected him too much.

If it was in the Central Cloud Continent, the unstable five states would make him more awake.

“Only one voice?”

Kong Yao muttered and then she said doubtfully, “I don’t get it! What is bad about that? Like the Great Shang Emperor, isn’t he restricted by all the aristocrats? He could only use a tenth of the power of his country and actually couldn’t beat Great Gan which only had seven barbaric states with little population…”

Her husband really was weird.

Zong Shou burst out laughing. As expected, even if he said it, Kong Yao wouldn’t understand the pros and cons.

He didn’t continue to explain and just kept silent.

This ceremony was much bigger than the last time. The carriage made one large round before heading back to the mountain.

At this moment, a huge number of people gathered in the square. From a rough estimate, there were hundreds of thousands of them.

The people with the rights to stand there were either officials or really rich people.

Based on rites, Zong Shou was led to a high platform.

He just needed to receive their respect and hand out the war rewards before all this was over.

The moment Zong Shou sat still on the throne, he saw Renbo and the officials bow toward him.

Even the Department of Rites secretary in charge of the whole ceremony did the same.

“Great Gan has spread far and wide, please Your Majesty, please change the system to call you an Emperor!”

Zong Shou was stunned and looked down at the black suppressive bunch.

This didn’t fit the ritual, there wasn’t this part of what was planned.

He came to his senses, it was probably planned out and it was a sudden strike on him?

Hundreds of thousands of people knelt on the ground and he had no chance to reject at all.

He wanted to scold them but the words were at the corner of his mouth before he swallowed it down. At this time, he knew that it was useless if he said all this and would only make them feel awkward.

He looked around at Xuanyuan Yiren and she was also shocked.

He laughed bitterly, his wife was devoted to refining pills, so why would she bother about all of this?

“I approve! Like what you all said, we will change the reign title to Shenwu…”
