Chapter 1216

The Western Xinjiang Protectorate's unscrupulous appointment of administrative officials in Jiangnan and Wuhu areas actually announced the end of the power of the central government of the Tanghe Empire. Li Wufeng could no longer wait for himself to enter the imperial capital to officially take over the power of the central government before exercising power. The situation in the empire also forced him to transcend his power in advance. To allow the empire to re-enter the normal operation earlier and to restore and develop the local economy earlier, many times he had to abandon those moral hypocrisy. Since he had been determined to do it, there was no need to hide it.

The appointment of administrative officials in the Wuhu and Jiangnan region of the Western Frontier also caused endless storms in the imperial capital. Before this, although Li Wufeng was still fighting with the Situ family, he largely avoided the imperial central government and targeted several vassal kings. Even the imperial central government, such as the City Guards, were called chaos troops. But the situation is somewhat different now. This appointment of administrative officials in the Wuhu area of ​​the Jiangnan region of the imperial south was undoubtedly openly ignoring the power of the imperial central government, which means that the imperial central control over the imperial territory officially died.

Once the floodgates were opened, no one could stop them. The news that King Li Wufeng of Qin would become emperor in Hanzhong soon spread in the imperial capital. Although I don’t know whether the source of this news was accurate, once this news spread, it indicates that King Li Wufeng of Qin officially established a new dynasty was no longer a dream, but a real possibility.

In addition to a small number of extremely conservative nobles in the imperial capital, they were still cursing Li Wufeng's rebellion every day, more people were already considering how their next path should go. Even the major media in the imperial capital have changed their direction, no longer talking about the whereabouts of the empire, but instead talking about the national interests and national direction of the Tanghe nation. Such changes have also made the people of the imperial capital clearly feel that the empire is probably going to change this time.

Although the First Division of the Imperial First Legion still firmly controls the north gate of the imperial capital, the city guards who stayed under the imperial capital were unable to enter the city after being ordered by Ma Yuan to prohibit entering the city. I wonder if they were worried that Ma Yuan would turn against each other. Tielongping also politely declined Yusufu's request to enter the city from the north gate, but only asked his city guards to be stationed outside the north gate. The situation in the imperial capital still seemed a bit chaotic. The imperial emperor Situ Yuan had been with the court many times.

Some ministers discussed their own stay or leave, and the ministers in the imperial court now do not know what to do. In fact, the entire empire only has one imperial capital and four prefectures in Yanyun County are not under the control of Xijiang. Such an emperor is no longer meaningful. Situ Yuan is not a fool. He hopes to end all this with a decent step down, but Xijiang has never responded to Situ Tai's firm opposition, which makes him undecided.

The two sitting withered hands kept sitting cross-legged and facing each other silently. Situ Yuan, dressed in ordinary clothes, picked up the teacup and took a sip, and put it down again. He really didn't want to drag it like this anymore, but when he saw the other party's cold and calm face, he felt that he didn't know where to start. It was just that even if he sat down like this, it would be difficult to solve the problem even if he sat for three days and three nights. Situ Yuan did not think that there was any value or significance of sitting like this.

"Thirteenth sister, do you think it's more meaningful to continue our stalemate like this? Can't we find a more appropriate solution?" Perhaps because he felt that if he didn't speak, his sister would probably be able to sit down forever, Situ Yuan finally couldn't help but open his words and asked him to visit his sister, who still has a considerable influence among the nobles of the imperial capital.

"Brother Seven, what do you want to do? Do you want to surrender to Li Wufeng or take the initiative to abdicate? Do you want the Situ Dynasty and the Tanghe Empire to end on you like this?" He glanced at this brother who had no backbone with some disdain. Situ Yushuang really didn't understand why the Situ family's generation was full of these corrupt and cowardly, Situ Biao, Situ Lang, Situ Jun, Situ Yuan, and the elder brother Situ Tai who was very talented and talented.

She just watched the land of the empire fall into Li Wufeng's hands, and watched the people's attitudes change little by little. Even the attitudes of the nobles and gentry who were most loyal to the Situ dynasty began to become ambiguous and hiding. Could this be the trend of history really irreversible? A helpless melancholy and confusion flashed in Situ Yushuang's beautiful Danfeng's eyes. I wonder if it was a mistake to let the Seventeenth Sister replace him and Li Wufeng. If she took on the role of Seventeenth Sister, would it be helpful to the empire?

What about help? This question has also been rumbling in Situ Yushuang's mind many times, but until now she has not made up for it. No one can predict what has not happened. However, Situ Yushuang believes that if she replaced Situ Yutang, she would definitely do better than the seemingly intelligent sister. She completely let down her father's instructions at that time. Sometimes Situ Yushuang wondered if she had forgotten the blood flowing on her own body, devoted herself to Li Wufeng's arms, and even had Li Wufeng's dream of a concubine and empress?

"Thirteenth sister, I can understand your mood, but, look at the current situation, my brother's army has completely collapsed. Although I am not very expert in military affairs, I also know that with the little military strength in my brother's hands, I can't defend Yan Yun at all. My sixth brother also left the field. His army and territory were accepted by Li Wufeng. My brother thought that the Puer and Duoton people who were aided had issued a statement that they would no longer intervene in the affairs of our empire. Do you still think that there is still room for reversal in the affairs of the country?"

She sighed helplessly. Situ Yuan didn't know why her sister was so persistent. She had to fight against Li Wufeng. The problem was that she had no capital to fight against each other now. Did she really think that Ma Yuanzhang and Yousufu would be loyal to the Situ Dynasty? Situ Yuan did not believe the two, but was too familiar with human nature. This confrontation without any chance of victory was equivalent to seeking a path to destruction. Even ants were greedy for life, let alone people? As long as there was a way of life, no one was willing to choose death. If you were like this, how could you ask those outsiders? The sixth brother had already taken a step forward. It seemed that Li Wufeng did not make things difficult for him. He could actually come to the imperial capital safely. Situ Yuan really admired Li Wufeng's generosity and courage. At this point, Situ Yuan believed that no one could have such a great spirit as Li Wufeng.

"Situ Yuan, are you so greedy for life and fear of death and longing for a comfortable life, where is the blood of the Situ family going? Even if our Situ Dynasty has reached the last step, can't you perform better? It makes people miss you? Do you want to let history be so gloomy in the history books?"

Situ Yushuang could no longer find the right words to criticize her brother. She also knew that her brother was not a wise and decisive person, otherwise she would not have reached this point today. However, the performance of these men in the Situ family was so disappointing. Several older generation clan uncles had come to the door to inquire about it, clearly trying to inquire about their attitude. Situ Mingxiang, a scum from the Situ family, actually wanted to let her take the lead in inviting Li Wufeng to Beijing to preside over the overall situation. She could not understand how they were so bloody?

"Random! Yushuang, what are you saying?! I have heard that you have committed a few clan uncles today, and I don't believe it. Anyway, clan uncles are always your elders. How can you scold the elders in a rude manner?" Situ Yuan was finally angry. Maybe he wanted to show his majesty in front of this thirteenth sister. His attitude seemed more and more serious: "You only have one person, but our Situ family still has hundreds of people in the imperial capital. If you don't think about yourself, you should also be for our Situ.

There are so many people in the family who think about it! Our Situ family has come to this point today, which is something we don’t want to see, but since we have come to this point, we should have the courage to face reality. The kind of unwillingness to admit reality and just mess around is even more of a cowardly manifestation! Don’t think that your tough attitude is a manifestation of courage. The solution we want to find is to be greedy for life and fear death. Is it a manifestation of rationality to hit a stone mantis arm with an egg? I tell you, that is stupid, not brave!"

Unexpectedly, my brother suddenly broke out at this time, and his words sounded pretty. If someone else had said that, Situ Yushuang might have calmed down and thought about it, but when she saw Situ Yuan's performance, Situ Yushuang felt even more despised: "Is that right? I can't tell that the Seventh Brother is really wise. My younger sister is indeed a little foolish, but my younger sister knows that she is willing to give everything for our Situ family. But look at your performance at the beginning, if it weren't for your intrigue to fight for power and profit, how could she let Li Wufeng take advantage of the situation? You are still embarrassed to teach your younger sister a lesson, Situ Yuan, are you not treating yourself as a human being?"
