Regarding the history of the hidden spirits, let alone Yang Yi, even Lin Feng doesn't know much.
Being able to rank among the top civilizations, and standing for thousands of years, the Hidden Spirit Race has its own advantages. However, the most glorious period of the Hidden Spirit Race is not now, but four thousand years ago, that is, one thousand years before the Second Greenwich War. At that time, under the rule of the three emperors respected as "Holy Emperor", "Ming Emperor" and "Might Emperor", the Hidden Spirits not only won the two Greenwich Wars, they were also leaders in the Galactic Alliance, their status and influence The strength is above the Lei Ling clan. It's just that these three emperors who opened up an era planted hidden dangers for the future internal worries of the hidden spirit race. After the "Wei Huang", the hidden spirit clan broke out in civil strife due to the throne dispute, and has never recovered from it.
It was during this period that the Presbyterian Church stepped onto the stage of history.
Although the Presbyterian Church existed when the Hidden Spirits came to the Southern Alpha Galaxy, before that, under the suppression of the powerful emperor, the Presbyterian Church had not been able to play its due role, let alone contend with the emperor, even words Without power, it seems insignificant. Especially during the thousand years of the reign of the three emperors, the elders' council has become a display, and it is not even qualified to comment on the important affairs of the hidden spirit race.
The civil strife after the "Weihuang" made the Presbyterian Church.
Of course, this is the shame of the Hidden Spirit Race, and it is also the greatest secret of the Hidden Spirit Race.
In Amy's words, let alone foreigners, even hidden spirits, very few know this period of history, and it is forbidden to talk about it in the royal family.
It's just that Amy knew something and told Yang Yi about them.
In the Second Greenwich War, "The Emperor" was the main commander of the Galactic Alliance. He participated in almost all large-scale battles and made great contributions to defeating the Silicon Magic Alliance. However, in this war that lasted for hundreds of years, "Weihuang" also paid a huge price, especially in the final decisive battle, "Weihuang" challenged the battle king of the Silicon Magic Alliance alone and was seriously injured. .
When the war ended, "Weihuang" was dying when he returned to the hidden spirit star.
Although relying on advanced technology and powerful sacred objects, it is not difficult to save the life of the "prestige emperor", but according to the tradition of the hidden spirit tribe, only the strong can sit on the throne. More importantly, the Second Greenwich War has just ended, and the internal order of the Galactic Alliance has been reshuffled. If the hidden spirit race is in charge of the "prestige emperor" who is not as powerful as the previous one, then the hidden spirit race will divide the fruits of victory. The interests of the people will definitely be affected. Don't forget, in addition to the Hidden Spirit Race, there are also the Lei Ling Race and the Star Weaver Race, and these two top civilizations are all eyeing them. In order to ensure the interests of the Hidden Spirit Race, the "Weihuang" decided to abdicate and give way to the virtuous.
"Weihuang" has no children, but has three illegitimate children, and none of them have grown up.
Of course, this is not the key.
If one of the three illegitimate children is selected to inherit the throne, there will be no problem at all. After all, the illegitimate child itself does not have much influence, and there is no power to fight for the throne, because no matter who you choose, the other two will not pose a threat. There will be no battle for the throne.
However, the problem still lies with the three illegitimate children.
This is, "Weihuang" has more than a dozen nephews, and these nephews who have the right to inherit the throne are all recognized members of the royal family.
As for the three illegitimate children, their identities have been questioned.
You know, not just the hidden spirit royal family, all royal families value bloodliness, and it can even be said that bloodlines are the most important thing the royal family cares about. From the princes and princesses to the prince’s children, as long as they are members of the royal family and have the right to succeed to the throne, they will get an identity proof item at birth and be recorded in the royal family tree. Without these, even if you have royal blood, you won't be recognized.
The three illegitimate children of "Weihuang" have such a problem.
Although they were both sons of the "Weihuang" and were successively canonized as kings, one of them was still a prince, but their royal membership was never confirmed. When the "Weihuang" died, they were still not recognized by the royal family. , Their names have not been written into the royal family tree.
When "Wei Huang" was alive, the problem was not very big, because questioning the identity of the three illegitimate children was tantamount to challenging the authority of "Wei Huang".
However, after the death of "Wei Huang", his authority followed him into the tomb.
The result can be imagined.
On the day the "Weihuang" died, the battle for the throne, known as "Ten Kings Seizing the Prophet", broke out. Within a few days, the two illegitimate children of "Weihuang", the older two were killed one after another, and the whereabouts of the other one is unknown. It's just that this civil war for the throne has just begun, and it's very early to end. There is only one throne, but there are many coveters. After eradicating the three illegitimate children of "Weihuang", the seven princes who took the lead in rebellion continued to fight, and other princes were also involved. In the next ten years, the hidden spirits became torn apart because of this civil strife, and the prestige of the royal family was greatly affected. Although the hidden spirit royal family kept secrets about this civil strife, it never mentioned it, and it was forbidden to mention it on any occasion, but in just ten years, at least half of the royal family members died as a result of the war.
In fact, the impact of this civil war on the hidden spirit tribe is even more serious.
In addition to a large number of hidden spirits who lost their lives in the war, the hidden spirits also lost the crown of the number one civilization of the Galactic Alliance. If it were not one of the three top civilizations of the start-up Galaxy Alliance, I am afraid that before the end of the war, the hidden spirit race would be expelled from the central region where the top civilization is eligible to enter.
The disastrous life caused by ten years of war is enough to awaken the hidden spirits, and it is also enough to let the careerists see opportunities.
When the princes who participated in the battle for the throne were incomprehensible to the South, a person who suddenly appeared, completely changed the situation of the war, and finally ended the war.
This person was the third illegitimate son of "Wei Huang", the one who disappeared when the war broke out, and that was Argos, who was later honored as "Jing Huang".
This person is also the ancestor of the current royal family of the Hidden Spirits, including the Heavenly Sage Emperor, Princess Sija, and Prince Kadozo.
Although Argos was just a weak boy before his disappearance, he was not seen by those powerful princes at all, or he would have been eliminated like his two brothers, and it would be impossible to survive for ten years, but When he returned to the Hidden Spirit Star, Argos was no longer the boy he used to be. Not only did he gain an adult status, but he also possessed a powerful strength no less than that of any prince.
Argos was able to return to the Hidden Spirit Star thanks to the help of the Presbyterian Church.
However, the Presbyterian Church was not optimistic about Argos from the beginning, and it was not even clear where Argos died.
In the early days of the Civil War, the elders remained neutral, but they didn’t last long before they were threatened by the powerful prince. However, in the civil war that lasted for ten years, no prince gained absolute advantage, and no prince was able to unify the hidden spirit race, so the elders have been swinging between their strengths. Although this stance of right and left allows the elders to take care of themselves, it also makes the elders insignificant.
Of course, the impact of the civil war has not changed in any way because of the Presbyterian Church.
As the princes one after another were destroyed in the flames of war, as the royal family gradually declined, and as the status of the Hidden Spirits in the Galactic Alliance plummeted, several core members of the Presbyterian Church finally realized that if the civil war continues, it will eventually be unfortunate Not just the royal family, but the entire hidden spirit family.
This civil war must end, and it must end as soon as possible.
Obviously, none of the princes who have been involved in the civil war is a good thing. More importantly, the elders will be on both sides before this, so even if they openly support a certain prince, the elders will not be reused after the end of the civil war, and may even be abandoned by the new emperor.
The key is that those princes have a strong background, backed by the entire royal family.
Obviously, as long as the civil war is over, the royal family will unite around the new emperor to ensure the status of the royal family and will never assign power to the presbytery.
The only way to end the civil war and profit from it is to support an emperor who has no foundation.
Until this time, Argos appeared on the stage of history.
In fact, Argos had been hiding in an elder's manor. In order to survive, he changed his name and surname and dressed as a small servant.
For the Presbyterian Church, Argos is indeed an ideal choice.
At that time, the wishful thinking of the elders was very simple. Pushing Argos to the throne of the emperor, because there is no foundation and background, after proclaiming the emperor, Argos can only rely on the presbytery, and through the support of the presbytery, to fight against the powerful royal family, and to rule the hidden spirit family.
Without the support of the royal family, in the eyes of the Presbyterian Church, Argos could not become a powerful emperor like the "Weihuang".
Obviously, a weak emperor is the foundation of the presbytery in power.
Unfortunately, the elders underestimated Argos.
With the support of the Presbyterian Church, the key is to obey the public opinion, and it took Argos only two years to eradicate all his opponents for the throne. However, Argos did not go to war against the royal family, but amnesty the world after ascending to the throne. Of course, Argos's move also won him the recognition of the royal family.
As a result, Argos, who was pushed to the throne by the Presbyterian Church, was not good at being weak or bullying.
The result of this was that after the "Ten Kings Seized the Prophet", the war continued for another five years, and it was a war between Argos and the Presbyterian Church.
Although Argos won the support of the royal family, the royal family suffered heavy losses in the previous wars, and its status in the eyes of the hidden spirits has plummeted. When the two sides are exhausted, reconciliation becomes the only way out, and reconciliation means that both sides need to make concessions.
Since then, Argos has made a lot of efforts and won the hearts of the people, but the war for more than ten years has had a very serious impact on the prestige and image of the royal family. Even if the emperor of the ZTE Yinling clan is loved by all the hidden spirits, he cannot reshape the tall image of the royal clan.
Just like this, the hidden spirit race has the present situation.
The emperor is still the supreme commander of the hidden spirit clan, but the imperial power has been greatly weakened, and the vital military power is no longer under the emperor's sole control.
