Chapter 555 Reactions from all parties

On June 1, the eighth year of Huaxia, the core members of the Hua family had just finished discussing the next month's affairs, and Huaxia began to make many new moves on this day.

There was a mansion not far from the palace of King Lu, with two ordinary guards standing at the door. Suddenly, the Prime Minister of Lu came to the door of the mansion with more than 20 officials of Lu, which surprised the pedestrians on the road.

"General Cai, hurry up and inform the king, I have something to report to him!" The Prime Minister of Lu said to the guard.

"Prime Minister Cheng, you..." This guard was a guard beside King Lu, wearing his ordinary armor here just to hide the traces of King Lu.

"Don't ask so many questions, King Qin Zheng killed King Yan, King Hua Kai of Huaxia went to Jicheng of Yan State to fight with King Qin, King Qin was seriously injured and disappeared, and now Yan State has surrendered to Huaxia!" The Prime Minister of Lu said loudly.

Hearing this, General Cai no longer stopped Prime Minister Cheng, and took the officials of Lu to see King Lu together.

The King of Lu had already sensed the movement outside the palace. The reason why Lu could hold on to the present and compete with Qin and Chu was because of his ability to hide. In addition, Huaxia needed them to block Qin and Chu, and Lu was needed as a buffer. That's why Lu could survive until now.

When he saw the Prime Minister and the General, together with the important officials of Lu, came directly to him, he knew that this matter must be no small matter, and most of it was good.

"Meet the King, there is news from Huaxia…" The Prime Minister of Lu excitedly told the King of Lu that Qin Zheng was seriously injured and his life was unknown.

"Are you serious? Who told you this news?" After hearing this, the King of Lu hurried forward and grabbed the Prime Minister's arm and said excitedly.

"It was the news sent by the son-in-law. He also brought the words of the King of Huaxia, asking Lu to open the border with Qin and Chu, and all caravans to return to normal taxation. Qin and Chu have troops entering Lu, so we should not hold back." The Prime Minister said with a happy smile.

"The news sent by Zichen must be correct. Even if Qin Zheng did not die this time, Qin's momentum would certainly decline greatly, and the chances of winning the war with Huaxia are not great. The King of Huaxia is less than 35 years old now, but he has become the strongest in the world. The world may very well belong to the Hua family!

The King of Huaxia allows us to trade normally and become stronger, which shows that Huaxia has the confidence to fight against Qin and Chu. Now that wild beasts are rampant, Huaxia will certainly not be willing to take over the ruined Central Plains. Now everything is actually very clear!" King Lu heard himself savoring it carefully and said.

As a foundation-building realm, Lu can deal with the four first-class countries for decades. On the contrary, Lu can become stronger and stronger. King Lu's ability is unquestionable, and all the officials of Lu also nodded in agreement with King Lu's opinion.

"My king, what will Huaxia do next? What should we do?" The general looked at King Lu and asked.

"Since its founding, Huaxia has never taken the initiative to attack any country. Instead, it has been able to become the world's strongest country step by step. It relies on their incredible resources and the system of discussing and making decisions together.

At this time, they will definitely not take the initiative to attack. The goal of the King of Huaxia is different from that of the King of Qin. He is for the common prosperity and strength of the people of the world, so there are so many civilians who have gone through untold hardships to go to Huaxia.

Qin and Chu will definitely not dare to take the initiative to attack Huaxia again in the future, unless the wild beasts in the world are completely pacified. In the past, everyone was afraid of facing the King of Qin. Now Chu and Qin are afraid of facing the King of Huaxia, which is of great significance!

What we have to do is to continue to deepen relations with Huaxia. If they can send elite troops to Lu, it would be great. Even if Qin Zheng is not dead, it is unlikely that he will attack me again, because even if he kills me, it will have no impact on the general situation of Qin and Huaxia!" King Lu said with a smile. He did not hide his fear of Qin Zheng's assassination. It was precisely because of this that many families felt at ease and were willing to follow him.

"So, if we hold on until the wild beasts are pacified, we will become the battlefield of the three kingdoms in the final battle. It is very likely that we will face the attack of Qin or Chu and rely on Huaxia for support, right?" A Lu official said at this time.

Everyone thought about it and began to worry again. Last year, Lu lost three foundation-building masters. This year, the pressure of wild beasts must be greater. Without the golden elixir realm, it is difficult to compete with the three kingdoms and protect themselves. If they can hold on until the wild beasts are almost eliminated, then what can Lu do in the final battle of the three kingdoms?

Lu's approach must be the same as it has been in the past few years, but it may be more tragic. Seeing that everyone was silent, King Lu also knew what everyone was thinking. In the past few years, he had communicated with Hua Zichen many times and knew some unknown secrets of Huaxia. These secrets are normal among the core members of the Hua family. Hua Zichen said it easily.

"I know what you are thinking. Yan has surrendered to Huaxia, so there is no point for us to persist in Lu.

In a few days, I will go to Huacheng to have a detailed discussion with Zichen, and then we will gather all the noble families in Lu to discuss whether to surrender to Huaxia." King Lu said.

It is normal for the Lu family to surrender to Huaxia, because the Lu family and the Hua family are relatives. King Lu knows the real strength and potential of Huaxia, and it is normal for the Lu family to surrender to Huaxia from the perspective of friendship.

It took less than half a month for the news of Hua Kai's victory over Qin Zheng to spread throughout the East Land Shenzhou, and even the Wusun Kingdom in the northernmost part of the grassland knew it.

In the palace of the King of Chu, after receiving the news, the King of Chu paced back and forth dozens of times in the hall. Not far away, several ministers of the State of Chu bowed their heads and said nothing. This incident had a huge impact on the entire Central Plains. The State of Qin would be at an absolute disadvantage. If Qin Zheng died, the State of Qin would be torn apart. As the first opponent of the State of Qin for hundreds of years, the State of Chu's understanding of the State of Qin was not comparable to that of other countries.

"Did anyone mention how Hua Kai and Qin Zheng fought? Did the State of Qin come out to refute the rumor? Is Li Si or Bai Qi in power in the State of Qin now?" The King of Chu finally stopped and asked.

"I heard that Qin Zheng sacrificed his own [Killing Barrier], and Hua Kai also used the [Journey to the West] Scripture as a price. The two of them fought with true fire, and Qin Zheng's [Daxia Dragon Bird] has been obtained by Hua Kai. Our spies in Huaxia can confirm this.

Qin is still presided over by Li Si on the surface. Qin has been trying every means to eliminate the rumors of Qin Zheng's death in the country, but Qin Zheng has never appeared. I think the news that Qin Zheng was seriously injured this time must be correct, otherwise Qin would have clarified it!" said the Prime Minister of Chu.

"It can't be wrong! Hua Kai defeated Qin Zheng, this is correct, Qin Zheng must have been seriously injured, but I don't believe Qin Zheng will die so easily, he must have a chance to turn over, otherwise..." The King of Chu stopped talking here. How could the King of Chu not know Hua Kai's strength, but he didn't expect Hua Kai to be so strong.

Now the Central Plains is all on the side of Huaxia. If Qin Zheng falls, how can the King of Chu be a match for Huakai? Chu can only hope that Qin Zheng will not die, so that the two countries can work together to counter Huakai, and Chu can have that glimmer of hope.

While the whole world is discussing the battle between Qin Zheng and Huakai, Xianyang City is already in chaos. Many people in the foundation-building realm who were imprisoned in Xianyang City by Qin Zheng also began to find various excuses to make trouble. If Qin Zheng falls, it will be meaningless for them to stay in Xianyang City, and Qin's promise to unify the world will be completely broken.

Bai Qi and Li Si and other important members of Qin are discussing countermeasures. Qin Jiao is sitting in the main seat and everyone's expression is very heavy.

"We don't know the specific results of the battle between my father and Huakai in Jicheng. All the rumors now are from Huaxia. My father must have been delayed by something and didn't come back. We must not let Qin be in chaos!" Qin Jiao said to the important officials of Qin present.

"I have dispatched all the elite soldiers and the standing army and the city defense army. If anyone spreads rumors again, they will be killed without mercy. However, many of the foundation-building families in Xianyang City have been looking for opportunities to return home. They must have believed the rumors. We cannot keep suppressing them." An official of the Qin State replied.

But there is a problem with him saying such a thing. He claimed to be a minister to Qin Jiao, but Qin Jiao is still only the heir of Qin State and the prince of Qin State. In fact, everyone knows that the King of Qin will be in danger of falling as long as he fights with all his strength. According to what they know about the battle on that day, the chance of Qin Zheng's survival is very small.

"Or we can kill all these people!" Bai Qi suddenly said. Everyone has been preparing for the worst result, because even if Qin Zheng can come back intact, Qin Zheng will lose the title of the strongest man in the world, and the hatred accumulated in the hearts of many families in Qin State will inevitably be ignited, and Qin State may explode because of this.

"This is absolutely not allowed. If we do that without telling them how much we have lost, people will think the rumor is true, and the consequences will be disastrous.

The best news for us now is that the spiritual rain that has been falling in the Central Plains is of water attribute. Everyone knows that the king is of dark attribute. The king is not dead yet, so everyone must be worried.

The best way for us now is to discuss a solution with each foundation-building realm. First, ensure the stability of each urban area, and wait for the king to come back. Everything will be fine!" Li Si said.

Li Si agreed to put all the foundation-building realms back, so that at least the Guanzhong area can be guaranteed to be safe. Those foundation-building realms will definitely gain power after they return. Qin will recall most of its elite soldiers to Guanzhong, which is equivalent to using cities in exchange for those families to temporarily rule the urban areas outside the Guanzhong area. Li Si is letting Qin protect itself!

Several important officials of Qin wanted to object when they heard this, but they didn't say anything in the end, because no one knew how long they would have to hold on before Qin Zheng could come back. Giving up these urban areas would allow Qin to keep the core area, and there would be no need to worry about the defense of cities outside Guanzhong in winter.

If Qin Zheng could come back, they didn't say to return these cities to these aristocratic families in the Foundation Establishment Stage. Qin Zheng could easily take these cities back.
