Chapter 121: It's Not a Woman's Fault, but the Tra

    

ushed red.The bet was that he would kiss me.But, in front of so many people, to kiss him...Even thinking about it makes me feel ashamed."Hee hee hee, big sister can't go back on her word," little nine...Yang Lin also nodded.

Knowing your enemy and yourself will ensure victory in a hundred battles. Right now, we have very little information about them. We don't know the size of the rebel army, nor do we know if they can even reach us. It's definitely difficult to respond effectively.

I'll have Ziyi investigate this!

Li Yuyao said, then immediately called out to Ziyi.

"Miss."

Li Yuyao said seriously: “My husband just brought news that there is a rebellion in Suizhou. You go and see what is going on there. Who are the rebels What is their scale How is the battle situation Time is short, I give you a maximum of six days, within six days, you must come back!”

"Yes!"

Ziyis responded without hesitation, then went out the door, not even bothering to pack her belongings. She went into the courtyard, saddled a horse, leaped onto its back, shouted "Drive!", and in the blink of an eye, she was gone, leaving Yang Lin dumbfounded.

"Did she just leave like that Or did she go to Sui State"

The Eighteen States of Great Qin, the Jianghe County where they resided was in Jiangzhou. Suizhou was located far from Jiangzhou, with Jizhou situated between them, a distance of a thousand miles!

Don't say that transportation is inconvenient now, a journey of a thousand miles is extremely difficult.

Even in past lives, traveling across provinces on a whim was rare.

"Rest assured, Ziyi will be fine."

Li Yuyu looked solemn and seriously said to Yang Lin, "No matter what the situation is over there, I suggest that we here should make preparations in advance!"

"Oh Why" Yang Lin was a little puzzled.

He is now only worried about the impact of the rebels on this place.

Once war breaks out, the people suffer greatly.

The most important thing is that it affects oneself to hide in the mountainous village and make money and develop!

He didn't want to go to war at all, he only wanted a peaceful prosperous world, so that his skills could make him wealthy.

Living in this mountain village, I have no worries about food and shelter. I have multiple wives and concubines. When I'm not busy, I tinker and invent things. Isn't that a good life

If the rebellion is not large enough to reach Jianghe County, then it has nothing to do with him.

As for the people in war-torn areas, although he knew they were pitiful, he didn't want to meddle.

I am neither a saint nor a god, I cannot control worldly affairs, nor do I have the ability to save all beings.

It's better to focus on taking care of your own small piece of land and ensuring that the people who rely on you for sustenance are well-fed and clothed, than to worry about the whole world. That is more valuable than anything else.

Li Yuyao, however, frowned and said, "You don't know the current situation in the world!"

"What's the situation"

Yang Lin was puzzled again.

He really doesn't know what the situation is like.

Whether it's the original owner's memories or this period of experience, they are only a general understanding of the situation in Dayan.

"Yes, the current situation is very bad!"

"There are eight princes today, do you know"

Yang Lin shook his head, looking bewildered.

As an ordinary peasant in a remote valley, was this something he should know

Li Yuxiang, however, disregarded Yang Lin's reaction and continued:

"These eight princes are all the late emperor's own brothers. After the late emperor ascended the throne, in order to stabilize the court, he assigned these eight princes to various states, giving them idle positions and no real power."

"The late emperor reigned for thirty-two years. During those thirty-two years, the Eight Kings appeared calm on the surface, but some of them secretly amassed their own power! Once the late emperor passed away, someone among them would definitely not be able to contain themselves!" Yang Lin listened in astonishment.

Although he had built a business in the mountain village, he still felt that things like emperors and princes were too distant from him!

"Wait a moment You're talking about the former emperor You mean the old emperor is dead"

Yang Lin stared in disbelief.

Li Yuyao frowned solemnly and said, "The late emperor indeed passed away six months ago. You must show respect to the deceased!"

Yang Lin waved it off: "It's fine, there's no one else here anyway."

He understands that people of this era have a sense of reverence for emperors.

"You..."

Li Yiyong opened his mouth, but ultimately didn't explain. He sighed and continued, "The previous emperor passed away and a new emperor ascended the throne just three days ago, and already the Prince of Yan amongst the Eight Kings has rebelled!"

"Because Yan State was closest to the capital city, and the Prince of Yan had already colluded with many officials, when the Prince of Yan rebelled, in just one night, he seized control of the court. He falsely claimed that the new emperor had died from a serious illness, and he ascended the throne through rebellion."

These are all the things Ziyi and Qingyi said to her after they arrived.

Yang Lin clicked his tongue and shook his head, sighing: "This little emperor is no good either. He allowed someone to rebel successfully in just one night Didn't he know about the wolfish ambition of this King Yan before he ascended the throne In my opinion, he is too indecisive and doesn't understand the principle of striking first. He has brought ruin upon himself."

Yang Lin spread his hands helplessly.

Before Li Yuyao could even open her eyes, Yang Lin continued to sigh, "Now I understand what you meant when you told me to prepare early."

“The King of Yan has already succeeded in his rebellion, but he gained his position through treachery. His legitimacy is questionable, and even if he ascends the throne, he will not be secure. Meanwhile, the other princes were already harboring dissent. Now that the young emperor has been killed by the King of Yan, the other princes can use the pretext of eliminating corrupt officials to claim they are coming to Beijing to help the new emperor. They can then raise their armies and openly rebel.”

Thus, with uprisings erupting everywhere, vying for the throne, chaos in the world is imminent! Alas! Only the common people suffer.

Yang Lin let out a long sigh, as if talking to himself: "I really don't understand, why did the old emperor pass the throne to such a weak and easily bullied little emperor Even you know that the Eight Kings are eyeing the throne covetously. The old emperor couldn't possibly not know, yet he still went his own way and passed the throne to the young emperor. That's why this country is in chaos, both he and the young emperor are responsible!"

Li Yuyao's face flushed red, and her expression became extremely agitated: "You don't understand! They had no choice!"

"No choice"

Yang Lin frowned again: "Could it be that the old emperor only had one son, just like the young emperor That's not right, isn't an emperor supposed to have three palaces and six courtyards, with dozens of concubines How could he only have one son."

Li Yuyao shook her head bitterly, clenching her fists tightly, and said with red eyes: "The late emperor didn't only have one son, but only one daughter!!"

"Oh, only one..."

"What!"

"Daughter!"

Yang Lin was taken aback.

"So you're saying the old emperor only had one daughter, and he passed the throne to her"

Yang Lin's eyes widened in surprise.

This makes perfect sense!

No wonder the other princes have ulterior motives and secretly amass their power; no wonder that just three days after the young emperor's ascension, the Prince of Yan would rebel.

It turns out he's not a frail little emperor who can be bullied, but a woman who is simply not accepted by others!

A woman claiming to be an emperor, how difficult it must have been. Yang Lin believed she understood it better than that female emperor who had lost her life.

After all, there has never been a successful female emperor in this world, but he had a successful precedent in his past life. The deeds of the Empress Wu Zetian, a legendary female emperor, are well-known throughout the ages!

Even with the capability and political acumen of Wu Zetian,

the result was still widespread rebellion and instability throughout the empire.

It's not a woman's fault.

But it is the tragedy of the times!

Seeing Yang Lin's surprised expression, Li Yunyao's eyes welled up with tears. A pang of sadness pierced her heart: "Even you think a woman can't be emperor"lem is what he said.Don't come out!Nowadays, metallurgy is so underdeveloped that it can't even smelt steel, let alone extract metal titanium from ilmenite.And even if it could actually be refined, wh...
