Chapter 488: Dynasty Situation
"Aunt, no, aunt, I can't make the decision on this matter." Kong Hui sat opposite Kong Nan. Although she had doubts in her heart, she didn't dare to ask Kong Nan what happened.
Kong Nan also knew his fellow Taoist's temper, so he didn't say much to Kong Hui about this matter and motioned Kong Hui to stay.
Turning her attention to Cui Qingwan, who was sitting next to Kong Nan, Kong Hui asked, "This girl looks like a member of our Kong family. What is her relationship with my aunt?"
Kong Nan nodded: "He is destined to be with my Kong family and is my apprentice."
Kong Hui looked at Cui Qingwan again, searched in the space ring, and found a set of soft spiritual armor: "I asked someone to make this for me before. I found the color is pretty, so I gave it to the girl."
Cui Qingwan looked at Grandma Kong again, and Grandma Kong nodded, and then Cui Qingwan took the soft armor.
Kong Nan's dark eyes were fixed on the void, and he asked, "You and I both know who your uncle is. There are some things I can't ask him, but as a girl from the direct line of the Kong family, Huihui, do you know how His Majesty has treated the Kong family over the years?"
Kong Hui sighed, "Your Majesty is old and confused, and the princes under him are controlled by the Duan Ye family. None of them can take charge of the overall situation. The royal family has long lost the possibility of ruling. The current Great Qin Dynasty is better said to be the Duan Ye Dynasty. The Duan Ye family has been suppressing us legion families over the years, probably because they want to take the military power of the dynasty into their hands."
Lin Zhao had a strange expression on her face when she heard this. How could the aunt and niece discuss this issue without even being shy about talking about themselves?
Unexpectedly, when Kong Nan heard this, he "looked" in her direction and asked, "Miss Zhao, what do you think?"
Lin Zhao paused for a moment and said, "Is it the Duan Ye family who proposed to compete for the position of the super dynasty?"
Kong Hui looked at her in surprise: "The Duan Ye family has never expressed their views on this. This was jointly proposed by several general families. On the one hand, they want to make the dynasty have more resources, and on the other hand, they also want to use this opportunity to get rid of the situation of being suppressed by the Duan Ye family."
Lin Zhao was even more surprised: "So the emperor of the Great Qin Dynasty did not approve this action?"
"The powerful men above the royal family nodded, and His Majesty has been ruling for many years and has been using beauties to comfort his soul in the palace. He has not expressed his views on these matters."
Lin Zhao: "...You might as well just say he is obsessed with beauty."
Kong Hui shrugged.
Although she also looked down on such a monarch, Kong Hui would not say anything to the ruler of the Qin Dynasty unless the Kong family wanted to rebel.
Lin Zhao pondered for a moment, "How many powerful people are behind the royal family?"
In this world where strength is respected, Lin Zhao didn't believe that a royal family that had lost its ruling power could still sit firmly on the throne without a strong foundation.
Kong Hui said: "There is a person who has achieved the Great Perfection of Crossing Tribulation and is in seclusion to strive for the True Immortal. There are two more who have achieved the Great Perfection of Crossing Tribulation and three remaining Great Powers of Crossing Tribulation."
This strength is indeed enough for this family to sit on the throne of a high-ranking royal family.
But compared with the Super Dynasty, it is still far behind.
In the Qing Dynasty, there were three true immortals.
Of course, this is not the case. The Qing Dynasty was ranked among the top three super dynasties.
If this person of the Great Qin Dynasty who has achieved great perfection in transcending tribulation truly enters the level of True Immortal, not to mention competing with the top super dynasties, he will certainly have some qualifications to secure his position as a super dynasty.
"Where is the Duanye family?" Lin Zhao asked.
Kong Hui glanced at Kong Nan, and seeing that she had no intention of stopping him, she said directly: "As a founding noble family, the Duan Ye family has three powerful people in the Tribulation Crossing Stage."
Lin Zhao understood: "The other families combined don't have three people in the Tribulation Crossing Stage?"
Otherwise, why would all the generals be suppressed by just one family?
Kong Hui's face looked a little ugly now. She nodded and said, "Our Kong family has an ancestor who is in the middle stage of the tribulation. The An family has an ancestor who is in the early stage of the tribulation. The strongest people in other families are at the great perfection of the fusion stage."
In other words, all of these generals combined cannot defeat the Duan Ye family, unless the royal family dislikes the Duan Ye family.
However, the emperor, who is now in charge of the royal family, favors the Duanye family. It can be said that the Duanye family is the royal family in secret. How could these bigwigs of the royal family take action against the Duanye family?
The bosses above the Tribulation Crossing Stage have not had their bottom line of power touched, and they don’t even bother to look at other political struggles.
The reason these generals were able to ignore the Duan Ye family's attitude and forcibly start conscription to fight for the position of the super dynasty was all due to the support of the royal family in the Tribulation Period.
Otherwise, the entire Qin Dynasty will have to look to the Duan Ye family for their opinion.
Lin Zhao said bluntly: "Although we are among the top three in terms of hard power among the several high-level dynasties vying for the position of super dynasty, the dynasty masters have different opinions, and the ruling families are also undecided. I am afraid it is impossible to strive for the position of super dynasty in this way."
Kong Hui sighed: "What if we don't fight for it? The dynasties bordering Daqin are all eyeing Daqin covetously. If they take over the position of a super dynasty and obtain the resources of a super dynasty, Daqin will be gone."
His Majesty does not care about the situation of the Qin Dynasty, but the generals who founded the dynasty cannot help but care.
Lin Zhao thought for a moment and said, "This matter is easy to solve but also difficult to solve. What are the cultivation levels of the three people in the Tribulation Crossing Stage of the Duan Ye Family?"
"One is in the middle stage of the tribulation, and two are in the early stage of the tribulation."
Lin Zhao asked, "In other words, if you have one more strong person who has reached the early stage of the tribulation, you can get rid of the Duan Ye family?"
Kong Hui looked at Lin Zhao with a look of confusion: "Do you know how many strong people there are in the Tribulation Crossing Stage?"
The other generals' clans also wanted to bring down the Duan Ye family, but unfortunately, a strong man in the Tribulation Crossing period was an absolute uncrowned king in any force. As long as a family or a force had a Tribulation Crossing person, even if this person did nothing, he could still be among the best.
If there is a true immortal, that would be a super power.
In the world of cultivation, strength is respected. Sometimes, thousands of years of power struggles are still no match for a real fight between these strong men.
Lin Zhao said, "My Lord only said that if there is another expert with the strength of the Tribulation Crossing Stage to help, then would the two Tribulation Crossing Stages be willing to help the Duan Ye Family with a big one?"
Kong Hui glanced at Lin Zhao and thought to herself, what on earth do you, a mere consecrator, want to do with the tribulation period?
But in front of her aunt, she could only follow Lin Zhao's line of thought and answer: "That's natural."
Several major generals' families have been suppressed by the Duanye family for many years, and they have wanted to kill them for a long time.
The strong men from the Duanye family had a solution, but the problem of the royal family had not been solved yet. This was beyond the imagination of Lin Zhao, an outsider whose knowledge of the Qin Dynasty was limited to hearsay.
Kong Nan thought for a moment, "I remember that the third prince of the dynasty was pretty good, how is this child?"
