Chapter 561: Since ancient times, coups have relied on meetings!
"This Moon Worshiper is a beast!"
"The most brutish of brutes!"
"Evil, beast, evil animal!"
The high-ranking members of the Bai Miao tribe shouted and cursed, expressing their solidarity with the Moon Worshiping Sect Leader.
They were originally hostile to the Moon Worshiper, and now that they knew of the even greater evils he had done, their hatred towards him had increased significantly.
"Your Highness, you are right. This Moon Worshiper is no longer an ordinary cult leader. We must strike hard." The Southern Barbarian King looked at Murong Fu and said, "But the Moon Worshiper has been calling the shots in Dali over the years. He has many followers and enormous power. There are also terrifying water monsters helping him to do evil. It is not easy to deal with him! I wonder what strategy your Highness has?"
Murong Fu said: "First of all, to deal with the Moon Worshiper, we must not resort to large-scale war. If the conflict between the two sides turns into a war, even if one side can win, it will cause great damage to the country."
Murong Fu, who had been an emperor, naturally understood how to fight.
In his opinion, the most successful person in conquering the world from within the system was Li Shimin. The Xuanwu Gate Incident did not affect the people and the country's bureaucratic system. He only beheaded Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji, and completely completed the change of power.
This is the best way for a dynasty to seize power.
The worst way to seize power was the Jingnan Campaign.
Although Zhu Di had no choice but to do this, the internal power struggle within the Zhu family evolved into a civil war in the Ming Dynasty, causing countless casualties and was extremely difficult. It was the only one of its kind in history and was ultimately not a good thing.
After Yao Guangxiao achieved success and fame, he was hated by his relatives and friends because the Jingnan Campaign had such a wide impact and committed so many sins that this conspirator had a very bad reputation.
War is best avoided if it can be avoided.
Moreover, Murong Fu also saw that the King of the Southern Barbarians did not want war, because the strength of the Bai Miao tribe was significantly behind that of the Black Miao tribe, and the chances of winning the war were slim.
The fear that the Dali Kingdom would be seriously damaged and that the people would suffer were just nice words from politicians. If the King of the Southern Barbarians was powerful enough to crush the Black Miao, he would have wiped out the entire territory, unified the Miao area, and even changed the dynasty.
Once she has enough strength, even if she doesn't want to do it, the people below will force her to do it.
Although the Bai Miao were not as powerful as Murong Fu, what Murong Fu wanted was for Zhao Linger to be the queen of Dali and rule the country, not a bandit who would do a few tricks and leave. The intimidation could not be too obvious. What was more important was inducement and taking advantage of the situation.
After all, managing the Dali Kingdom still requires people like the King of Nanman.
Sure enough, after hearing Murong Fu's words, the Nanman King could not hide his admiration in his eyes, and nodded, "Your Highness is right. We are dealing with the Moon Worshiper in order to save the people of Dali. If this leads to a war, we will be the eternal sinners of Dali."
Murong Fu said: "So the best way is to launch a coup! The key to a coup is to unify the people. From now on, we must stay together and act in unison. No one can leave the team to avoid leaks! I will use magic to monitor everyone. If anyone dares to tip off the Moon Worshiper, he will be like this tree!"
After Murong Fu finished speaking, he stretched out his finger and pointed at the paulownia tree in front of him.
The energy of One Yang Finger was released, invisible and intangible, and struck the phoenix tree.
boom!
The sycamore tree was instantly smashed into pieces.
The Nanman King and the others were shocked and said, "We dare not, we dare not!"
Murong Fu continued, "In addition to unity of people, the most important thing for a coup is to be quick and determined, and to directly behead the most important person without any hesitation. So we must quickly find the Moon Worshiper, directly attack him, and kill him. Now we are in the dark, and the Moon Worshiper is in the light. He doesn't know our current strength, which is an information gap. We must make good use of this information gap."
The Queen of the Southern Barbarians looked at Murong Fu in surprise. She did not expect Murong Fu to be so experienced. She was puzzled: Why does this beautiful young immortal give me the feeling of a veteran in a coup?
"As for the method of the coup, I think you, King Nanman, can use the excuse of negotiating Dali's water resources to hold a meeting with Moon Worshiper and Witch King in the Dali Palace." Murong Fu said, "And the Sword Saint and I will disguise ourselves as ordinary Bai Miao soldiers. Once the Moon Worshiper arrives, I, the Sword Saint, and the Drunken Sword Immortal will attack together to surround and kill the Moon Worshiper. Even if the Moon Worshiper has supernatural powers, he will surely die."
The Sword Master said with a strange look on his face: "If the three of us join forces to besiege one person, even if this person is a true immortal, he will die immediately. This is how we act. It's a bit shameless."
Murong Fu said sternly, "This is not a dinner party or a martial arts competition. This is a coup d'état, a life-and-death struggle! We cannot harbor any illusions, and we cannot give the Moon Worshiper any chance to merge with the water monster. We must end the battle in one fell swoop! I have become an immortal, and my status is more noble than the two of you. I have no shame, so why do you two still have any shame?"
The Sword Master had nothing to say.
The Drunken Swordsman sighed, "Senior Murong, you are a ruthless person."
He was also shocked in his heart.
With Murong Fu's cultivation, he actually doesn't have martial ethics. This kind of person is really terrible. The eyes of the Nanman King lit up, and he said excitedly: "The Moon Worshiper is very strong, but he may not be stronger than Senior Sword Saint. What's more, if the three of you join forces, this plan has a high success rate! Moreover, I have not dared to go to the Dali Palace in these years. I just asked General Gai to garrison in Dali City on my behalf. If I go to the meeting in person, the Moon Worshiper will definitely come. Maybe the Moon Worshiper intends to deal with me personally. I will definitely be able to earn the Moon Worshiper by using myself as bait."
Murong Fu said: "As long as the Moon Worship leader dies, his followers, the Black Miao tribe, will be leaderless. At that time, General Gai Luojiao will rush out from outside the palace and join forces with us to wipe out the remnants of the Moon Worship."
"I've also thought of a way to deal with the aftermath!"
"We can expose the Witch King's identity in public, expose the fake Witch King to the public, find the real Witch King's body and bury it, and then let Ling'er ascend the throne as the Queen of Dali to appease the people."
"This way we will have a righteous cause! Then, in Ling'er's name, we will list ninety-nine crimes against the Moon Worshiper, make them public, and thoroughly denounce him. We must have ironclad evidence to ensure that he will never be able to turn over a new leaf!"
"As for the high-ranking members of the Moon Worship Cult, we will bribe those who are opportunistic and ask them to betray their brothers. We will pretend to give them an opportunity and ask them to help us clean up the remnants of the Moon Worship Cult leader. When the remnants of the Moon Worship Cult are almost all cleansed, we will then say that these people went against the will of the leader and get rid of them to appease the public opinion of the Black Miao."
"In this way, the Moon Worship Cult was disintegrated, and the Black Miao tribe was intimidated by our power and had no choice but to obey. Dali entered a period of long-term peace and stability."
"Finally, we need to solve the drought problem. Ling'er is a descendant of Nuwa. I have the Water Spirit Pearl, and at the very least, I have the Water Demon Beast. The Water Demon Beast is used to do bad things, such as causing floods. If we use it to benefit the people, we can make the Water Demon Beast produce water crazily, and we can build reservoirs to store water and irrigate the fields. In short, in the name of Ling'er, she will personally solve the drought problem in Dali, and the people will be grateful and regard her as a god. Her position as queen will be secure. In ancient times, Dayu controlled floods, and now Ling'er controls droughts!"
"Of course, we will not forget our meritorious officials. King Nanman, you have made great contributions and may be appointed as the prime minister of Dali."
Murong Fu spoke clearly and methodically, and he seemed very skilled in convicting, dividing and ruling, pacifying the people, curing drought, and making big promises.
Zhao Linger looked at Murong Fu with admiration.
Everyone was a little stunned, but they couldn't think of anything wrong with this plan. The Sword Saint and the Drunken Sword Immortal looked at each other and guessed that Murong Fu's identity before he became an immortal was not simple. Could he be a member of the royal family of the old dynasty?
The Nanman King was stunned and couldn't help asking, "My Lord, what did you do before?"
Murong Fu said: "I said I was an emperor before, do you believe it?"
The Southern Barbarian King: “.”
Dali City.
After sending his sect's masters to capture Zhao Linger, the Moon Worshiping Sect Leader was still not at ease because he heard that Gai Luojiao was also heading to Jiangnan, so he sent Elder Shi to follow closely behind.
It is still early now, and the Moon Worshiping Leader does not know that his men have failed, while Murong Fu, Zhao Linger and others have come to the Dali Kingdom.
"The power of the water monster has been fully restored. This time, I can even obtain Nuwa's spiritual power and eliminate the biggest threat. At that time, I will be a god!"
"Humph, by then, the drought in Dali will become more serious and war will be inevitable. I will kill all those bastards of the Bai Miao tribe!"
"I defeated the Bai Miao and my prestige is unmatched. I can also make this puppet Witch King die of illness. He will have no descendants, while my prestige is high. I will be crowned as the new Witch King. This is an inevitable trend and cannot be stopped."
"When I rule the Dali Kingdom, I will be completely unstoppable with Nuwa's spiritual power and the water monster. The Shushan Sect in the Central Plains will not be my opponent. By then, I will unify the world and become a god on earth!"
At this moment, the Moon Worshiper was dreaming of his own great dream.
In recent years, the Moon Worshiping Sect Leader has been stirring up trouble in Dali but has not gone to the Central Plains. Even though he knows that the Shushan Sect in the Central Plains is very powerful and that he himself has great magical powers, he may not be a match for the Sword Saint.
He never left Miao territory. Anyway, the people in the Central Plains were arrogant and would not pay attention to him, a foreign leader.
In addition, after the water monster was sealed by Lin Qing'er, the Moon Worshiper had been busy unsealing the water monster and did not even have the energy to deal with the Bai Miao tribe. Otherwise, with his ability, he would have destroyed the Bai Miao tribe long ago and made the Dali Kingdom his one-man show.
When the water monster was sealed by Lin Qing'er, the Moon Worshiper was very shocked. He also investigated the deeds of Nuwa's descendants and finally discovered that the Nuwa spiritual power of Nuwa's descendants was the only threat to the water monster. The fact that Lin Qing'er's daughter was rescued meant that there were still descendants of Nuwa in this world.
So the Moon Worshiping Sect leader conducted many investigations and finally determined that this generation of Nuwa's descendants might be on the Xianling Island outside Yuhang Town and were adopted by the Lord of Lingyue Palace.
The Lord of Lingyue Palace was also an expert, so the Lord of Baiyue Sect sent his men to test the waters. If they succeeded, that would be the best. If not, he could do it himself.
"Master, the King of the Southern Barbarians wrote a letter to the Witch King, hoping to come to Dali for a meeting to discuss the issue of water sources with our Black Miao tribe." Suddenly, a disciple came in and said respectfully.
"The King of the Southern Barbarians? That bitch finally dared to see me?" The Moon Worshiping Sect Leader sneered, "Very good, I will make sure she never comes back this time!"
