" His Majesty is dead!!!"
A mournful cry spread throughout the Imperial Palace.
The guards, eunuchs, and palace maids who heard the voice all knelt down and kowtowed.
The bell rang in the palace thirty-six times.
This was the sound of a great funeral. It could only be heard when the Emperor, Empress, Empress Dowager, and Grand Empress Dowager passed away.
And the one who had passed away tonight was the current Emperor of Tianqi Kingdom, Jingtai Emperor Shangguan Hong.
............
In Weiyang Palace, everyone knelt down and cried.
A cold corpse lay on the bed.
At the very front of the kneeling crowd was a young and handsome youth. He held an imperial edict with both hands.
Before Emperor Jingtai died, he issued a posthumous edict, ordering Crown Prince Shangguan Lin to inherit the throne and become the new Emperor of Tianqi.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for ascending to the throne. The World Tyrant System has awakened.”
The electronic voice in his mind made Shangguan Lin's eyes flash.
Shangguan Lin remained calm. He did not ask about the system's function, nor did he make any strange movements, as if nothing had happened.
It had been eighteen years since Shangguan Lin had been reborn into this world, but he had yet to awaken his golden finger.
He did not expect that after his father passed away today, the system would actually awaken.
It turned out that the Awakening System had to sacrifice his father. This price was a little high.
......
This world was very big, and there were many countries.
There were seven big countries: the Tianqi Country in the east, the Chu Country and the Liang Country in the south; In the north, Yan State and Qi State were established, and in the west, Li State and Yue State were established.
There were also many small countries that survived in the cracks of the big countries, relying on paying tribute to survive.
Shangguan Lin was currently in the Eastern Tianqi Kingdom.
The Tianqi Kingdom had been established for 226 years. After he ascended the throne, he would be the 13th Emperor of the Tianqi Kingdom.
............
According to historical records, in the 226th year of the Tianqi Era, in the 8th year of Jingtai, Jingtai Emperor Shangguan Hong died of illness in Weiyang Palace. The world mourned and observed mourning for three months.
Eight years later.
Indeed, Shangguan Lin's father, Shangguan Hong, had only been the Emperor for eight years before he passed away.
During Shangguan Hong's reign, he had no interest in politics and only knew how to enjoy himself.
Perhaps it was because of excessive indulgence that he died young.
Shangguan Lin didn't know what to say as he looked at the emaciated corpse on the bed.
He was her father, and she had been his son for eighteen years.
No matter how ridiculous he was when he was alive, now that he was dead, her sorrow was not fake.
......
When the emperor passed away, the concubines and princes were on night duty.
Throughout the night, Shangguan Lin knelt respectfully in front of Shangguan Hong's body.
Throughout the night, his posture had not changed at all, just like a clay figurine.
It is the ethics of heaven and earth to observe filial piety for parents.
As the crown prince, he should set an example.
When the ministers behind him saw Shangguan Lin's expression, a strange look flashed across their eyes.
Two of them were excited and happy. As for the others, they were indescribable.
The old emperor passed away and the new emperor ascended the throne. It was the time for power to change.
Although these ministers were now as powerful as ministers, it would be hard to say for sure after a period of time.
............
The emperor's mourning period lasted for seven days.
During these seven days, Shangguan Lin had been staying in Weiyang Palace, never leaving his side. He could only rest for less than four hours a day.
Seven days later, the Emperor was buried and the funeral was over. Shangguan Lin finally got a chance to rest.
Xiao Ming Palace, Shangguan Lin's bedroom when he was the Crown Prince.
Shangguan Lin dismissed his attendants and sat on the bed alone.
" Open the Tyrant System."
Shangguan Lin said softly.
"Ding, the Tyrant System has been activated. Welcome, host.”
"What functions do you have?"
Shangguan Lin asked softly.
"Replying to the host, the system has powerful functions. Its goal is to nurture the host into a tyrant.”
"Those who obey me will prosper, and those who resist me will die!"
"You're quite arrogant. Let's start with the novice gift bag.”
"Alright, host. The novice gift pack has been distributed.”
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining the personal guards, Six Sword Slaves, 500 Shadow Secret Guards, the supreme Taoist mental cultivation method, Myriad Rivers and Autumn Waters, and the Mysterious Spirit Treasure Pill (increases 30 years of cultivation strength without side effects).”
As the system's electronic voice fell, seven figures suddenly appeared in the room.
"Greetings, Your Majesty! Long live our emperor!"
The seven of them knelt down and kowtowed at the same time.
Shangguan Lin looked at the six people on the left. There were four men and two women, and they all carried famous swords on their backs.
True Strength, Disorder God, Broken Water, Moryo, Soul Rotation, Soul Destruction.
The six of them were all sword experts. The six of them were one, and their killing methods were even more impressive.
In his previous life, the Six Sword Slaves were the killing weapons of the net and were ranked first in the world.
Then, Shangguan Lin looked at a man on his right. He was wearing armor and had a stern expression.
He was the commander of the Shadow Secret Guards, Zhang Han. His strength was not weaker than any of the Six Sword Slaves.
In the world of the Qin Dynasty, the Shadow Secret Guards were the personal guards of the Qin Emperor, Ying Zheng.
It was said that there were many experts in the organization, which was the only way to ensure Ying Zheng's safety.
"System, what realm are they at?”
"Replying to host, among the Six Sword Slaves, Zhen Gang and Chaotic God are at the early-stage Grandmaster Realm, and the other four are at the late-stage Grandmaster Realm.”
"As for Zhang Han, he is also at the early stage of martial grandmaster.”
(Martial Arts Stage: Third-rate, Second-rate, First-rate, Xiantian, Grandmaster, Great Grandmaster.)）
Giving Shangguan Lin three martial grandmasters and four grandmasters at once was considered very generous.
Then, Shangguan Lin asked again," Where are the five hundred Shadow Secret Guards? Where are they?"
"Replying to host, the five hundred Shadow Secret Guards have been automatically implanted with their identities. They are now undercover in the Imperial Army.”
"Zhang Han's identity has also been implanted. He is now the Vice Marshal of the Imperial Army.”
"As long as Zhang Han gives the order to assemble, the five hundred Shadow Secret Guards will gather.”
