Chapter 492: The Past of the Yue Clan(2/2)
Yang Qingyuan felt more and more that there was something fishy between the two old men and women, otherwise why would his tone be so doting?!
"Alright! Let's get down to business. Master Yang is here to ask us about the ancient Yue tribe's illusion technique of communicating with the underworld. I don't understand this either?! You should talk to Master Yang about it!"
When the ancient Yue tribe's illusions were mentioned, the high priest's face became serious.
"Master Yang, I don't know what you want to ask?!"
"That's right, High Priest, a few days ago, one of my army from the Great Zhou Dynasty encountered Yin soldiers taking advantage of the passage near Songyang County! After checking with many parties, I heard that this was an illusion of the Ancient Yue people.
That’s why I came here.”
"What Mr. Yang just said is indeed like my Gu Yue's illusion!"
The high priest is the leader in charge of the Guyue tribe, and his political sensitivity is much higher than that of Ouye, an old blacksmith!
Someone used Gu Yue's magic to attack the imperial army's liberation army.
Although Yang Qingyuan did not say that this army was for escort or something, the only thing that could make the imperial army go out was ordnance and food.
No matter which one it is, it is a major crime to exterminate the Yi family, and the Guyue people have now become suspects for this crime.
Zhou Ting was dissatisfied with the ancient Yue people for a long time. He refused to obey the king's rule and did not obey government orders.
But it was because the Guyue people usually kept to themselves and never caused any big troubles. Moreover, they were the clan that guarded the tomb of the ancient Holy Emperor Yu and had a great reputation, so Zhou Ting turned a blind eye.
Now, doesn't this incident give Zhou Ting an excuse to take action against the Guyue people?
"Master Yang, our Guyue clan is completely unaware of this matter! Someone must be using this illusion to frame our Guyue clan!"
Now it is too late to deny that this is not an illusion of the Guyue tribe! Yang Qingyuan can only make Yang Qingyuan believe that this matter has nothing to do with the Guyue tribe.
Although the Guyue tribe has a population of hundreds of thousands and two Dongxuan, such a force is nothing more than an ant in front of the imperial court.
The Shenwu Army came here and crushed them instantly, leaving no room for fighting back.
"High Priest, don't worry. I didn't say that the Guyue tribe was the real culprits in attacking the liberation army. I just want to ask if this illusion is unique to the Guyue tribe. Who else besides the Guyue tribe might be able to do it?!
Or in other words, what enemies do the Guyue people have?!"
After the high priest was silent for a moment, he said, "The Guyue tribe does have an enemy who is also good at illusion! He was once also a Guyue tribe!"
"oh?!"
"I wonder if Mr. Yang has ever heard of a rebellion in twenty-five years!?"
How could Yang Qingyuan, a walking Hanlin Academy, not know this?!
"What the high priest was talking about was the rebellion of the Yue people in the southwest back then!?"
"Exactly!"
Twenty-five years ago, when Taizu killed Lan Hu and quelled the Mingjiao rebellion, Zhou fell into a relatively weak state by scraping bones and treating poison.
The weak Zhou Dynasty also gave opportunities to careerists.
Among the Baiyue tribes in the southwest, there was a man who held high a banner and called himself the King of Baiyue. He summoned many people from the Yue tribe in the south and established a country of his own, known as the Yue Kingdom.
At that time, the Yue people in the southwest and some of the Yue people in the southeast responded one after another with great momentum.
But unfortunately, he met the Duke of Guizhou of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Prince Zhaojingmu of Qianning.
Although the King of Baiyue had 300,000 soldiers under his command, he failed to realize his ambition.
He faced Zhou's famous generals, Duke Mu of Guizhou and Duke Fu of Ying.
Faced with the flanking attack of the two famous founding generals, King Baiyue had no power to fight back.
So the King of Baiyue began to absorb the power of various tribes and set his sights on the Guyue tribe.
Although the Guyue people are one of the Baiyue people, they are the descendants of the Emperor's family with their roots in the Miao Dynasty. They have guarded the tomb of the Holy Emperor Dayu for generations and are unwilling to participate in this kind of struggle.
So he rejected the request of King Baiyue.
Furthermore, the Guyue tribe had a very high prestige among the Southeastern Yues, and their refusal caused the Southeastern Yues to reject the offer of King Baiyue one after another.
The King of Baiyue, who could not get any strength replenishment, was finally defeated by the Duke of Guizhou and the Duke of Ying, and was defeated and died.
All the Yue in the southwest were almost wiped out in this battle.
However, the whereabouts of Baiyue's son, the former crown prince of Baiyue Kingdom, are unknown.
"The prince of Baiyue Kingdom?!" Yang Qingyuan couldn't help but murmur, this character feels so familiar!
"Yes! He is the legitimate son of the King of Baiyue, and he is a king, but he is extremely talented and proficient in Baiyue witchcraft. He is also called the Red Eyebrow Dragon Snake, or the Red Eyebrow Lord because he was born with a different appearance... His
