Chapter 197
Startled as they were.
But scenes like this—of the imperial house fighting for power—
had happened more than once or twice across the Nine Provinces Continent.
Therefore.
They all took it in stride.
But the Great Sui and the Great Han were vastly different!
Setting aside the fact that the Great Sui Dynasty had only just been overthrown.
Under normal circumstances, it would surely develop like the Great Han.
There was no way it could unify so quickly!
Let alone—
The three great dynasties of Great Qin, Great Yuan, and Great Tang would never sit idly by and watch it restore itself whole!
At this.
It would be strange not to be surprised.
As for the Great Han.
They weren't surprised by the unification itself.
On the contrary.
What surprised them was the speed of that unification.
One must remember.
Not long ago.
The Great Han was still a scene of warring lords carving up the land.
From the look of it.
If no outside force intervened.
Even eight or ten years might not have been enough to unify.
But as it turned out.
They'd only looked away for a short while.
And it was about to be unified.
This speed.
Was simply outrageous!!!
Great Qin, Xianyanggong.
"This matter is extremely suspicious."
"Send someone to the various kingdoms at once—be sure to investigate it thoroughly for me!"
Listening to Hearing Zhang Han's report.
Hearing Ying Zheng's expression turned solemn as he said in a heavy voice.
The five great dynasties.
Apart from the Great Ming.
The remaining four great dynasties had all undergone such tremendous changes in this short span of time.
To say there was nothing fishy about it—
Even if you beat him to death, he wouldn't believe it!
"Yes!"
Hearing Zhang Han answered loudly.
And hurried out of the great hall.
"Your Majesty, could this be the work of the Qinglong Society?"
Watching Hearing Zhang Han depart.
Zhao Gao, who was attending at his side, seemed to think of something.
His heart stirred slightly, and he spoke up.
Apart from the Qinglong Society.
He truly could not imagine.
What other force could pull off such a grand stroke!
Even the three dynasties of Great Qin, Great Yuan, and Great Tang, whose national strength ranked at the top.
Even thinking of doing this, it would likely be extremely difficult!
After all.
No matter how you put it.
These were still four great dynasties.
No matter how weak.
To deal with them all at once would require an enormously powerful force.
And looking across the entire Nine Provinces Continent.
Only the incomparably mysterious Qinglong Society seemed capable of doing this!
At this, he could not help but suspect.
"It's possible."
"In any case, we'll know once the Black Ice Terrace's investigation returns."
Hearing Ying Zheng nodded.
His expression was somewhat startled and uncertain.
In fact, the instant he heard this news,
his first thought had also been the Qinglong Society.
But this involved the four great imperial courts.
And on top of that, the Qinglong Society was still stirring up trouble over in the Great Ming.
That would be a full five great imperial courts!
If it really was the Qinglong Society's doing,
the terror of their power
was simply unimaginable!!
Therefore,
after thinking it over,
he felt this matter might possibly be related to the Qinglong Society,
but it absolutely could not be the work of the Qinglong Society alone!
Otherwise,
he truly could not fathom why the Qinglong Society had endured in silence until now.
Having thought of the same point,
Zhao Gao nodded, then fell silent in a low voice.
…………
Great Yuan, the Imperial Court.
As the messenger finished reading the secret report aloud,
the atmosphere in the hall suddenly grew somewhat oppressive.
The entire great hall was so quiet one could hear a pin drop.
Only the sound of Tie Muzhen's fingers tapping the armrest
rang out rhythmically within the hall.
After quite a while passed,
Tie Muzhen finally stopped tapping.
With a somewhat complicated expression, he spoke.
"The Qinglong Society — truly terrifying beyond compare!"
