I Can Control My Ancestors-Chapter 277 - 6: Reality Transformed, The Uncrowned Sovereign

Chapter 277: Chapter 6: Reality Transformed, The Uncrowned Sovereign

Even the peninsula witnessed faith in Gu Kang.

This might be due to Gu Chen expanding the influence of the Gu Clan.

As for Gu Xi and Gu Chen, their statuses were also extremely high.

——Gu Chen was placed in the Martial Temple, and even in later historical assessments, he was always regarded as a monarch!

Gu Xi’s status was also extraordinary.

What made Gu Yi feel both amused and exasperated was that Gu Xi actually replaced the position of Master Guan.

During that chaotic time.

The object of worship by grassroots forces changed from Master Guan to Gu Xi!

Even abroad!

And the sacrificial matters mentioned by the old couple were also thoroughly investigated by Gu Yi.

Just like the holidays created by ancient figures in original history, Gu Chen introduced a brand new holiday in modern times.

——[Dingning Festival]!

The date of this festival is the day Gu Chen passed away.

And this festival is quite important, with a three-day holiday.

Different traditions exist in various regions.

Many places will hold grand sacrificial ceremonies.

These ceremonies are led by the Gu Clan.

The more Gu Yi looked, the more he was startled, although the things that have been passed down so far still cannot completely impact his current life.

But such matters cannot be rushed.

A thousand years of history, time’s power can destroy too many things.

As long as he continues to persist, there will eventually come a time when these can be fully passed down.

Gu Yi kept convincing himself.

But then——

He noticed something off.

The well-known game "Three Kingdoms Kill" had actually turned into "Chaotic Times Kill," featuring character cards of Gu Xi, Gu Chen, Gu Wei, and other Gu Clan members, each with different forms.

At the bottom of these card collections.

The game company clearly stated——they had reached an exclusive cooperation with the direct descendants of the Gu Clan.

There was even a photo of Old Gu with the product company.

Staring at this photo, Gu Yi was stunned for several seconds.

Then——

His expression changed dramatically!

Old Gu was hiding money with him!

Although he didn’t know the specifics of the cooperation, judging by the game’s money-trapping nature, the income from this cooperation must be quite substantial!

No wonder he wasn’t urged to take the civil service exam earlier!

Gu Yi sighed helplessly, but his mood immediately became excited.

——The influence of the Gu Clan has already started to change life little by little.

If it continues.

As long as he ensures the family’s existence, this influence will only grow.

This is definitely great news for Gu Yi.

At least——

This gave him hope.

Gu Yi then carefully looked over the dynasties of the future. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

But unfortunately, once he left the game, it seemed the Gu Clan no longer had the means to fight against historical corrections.

Although the original Jin Dynasty was transformed into Yan Han.

The subsequent dynasties did not change.

Even the influence of the Gu Clan waned over time.

Yet, Gu Yi was not disheartened.

Human effort can overcome the heavens!

——Just like when he first entered the game, he never expected Yan Han to emerge.

As long as he is there.

The Gu Clan will always be the greatest variable in history!

Now the influence of the Gu Clan has already spread, and with the progress of the era, as long as he is still around, the influence of the Gu Clan will only continue to grow.

This is something Gu Yi can be certain of!

He closed the computer and lay back on the bed.

Picking up the gaming device for focus.

The scene unfolding in the game rapidly expanded before his eyes.

....

Gu Yi’s first concern was naturally family information.

The seventh generation of descendants is the most outstanding group in the Gu Clan to date,

In the rising new dynasty, the Gu Clan also ushered in the first peak of the family’s talent reserve.

In fact, Gu Yi had already been paying attention to the seventh generation of the Gu Clan.

After all, for him——

He had long envisioned controlling one of them.

The one he was most concerned about was Gu Wei, whose martial arts skills were the highest.

History has completely changed!

Compared to the original morally corrupt history, the current Great Han, following Gu Chen’s actions of slaying Lu Bu and executing the disloyal, is moving towards the moral standards of the Later Han.

Moral politics and non-moral politics are completely different matters.

Although Gu Yi had never been involved in politics.

Politics was not a challenge that the Gu Clan needed to face.

After all, the current emperor of the Great Han is Liu Shan!

With his feelings towards Gu Chen, all descendants of the Gu Clan would naturally receive his favor and trust.

However, martial arts were different!

This was not something that Gu Yi could quickly train.

Moreover, what he needed to do could not be done without martial prowess!

——Choosing Gu Wei, who had the highest martial command, meant the greatest benefit for Gu Yi.

However, Gu Yi did not directly choose to take control.

Gu Chen’s actions before his death significantly influenced Gu Yi’s judgment.

His efforts to weaken the barbarians were already quite successful.

If the upheaval of the world would not occur.

For Gu Yi.

With the current achievements, he could choose to draw lots, once again using tools to cultivate talents capable of turning the tide for the Gu Clan.

Luoyang.

The news of Gu Chen’s death had long arrived.

Upon hearing of this, Liu Shan, the Emperor, cried heart-wrenchingly.

An unimaginable gloom instantly spread across the skies of the Great Han.

——The world was in mourning!

People from all quarters wept upon receiving the news.

Some old soldiers who once followed Gu Chen even chose to end their own lives, willing to continue following Gu Chen in the afterlife.

It was as Gu Chen had predicted.

Liu Shan truly cared greatly about Gu Chen’s funeral.

He even wished to bury Gu Chen with the rites of an emperor, but it was fortunate that Gu Chen’s final words arrived, suppressing Liu Shan’s intention.

Yet despite this——

Liu Shan still adamantly elevated Gu Chen’s funeral to the status akin to that of Gu Xi.

He bestowed ceremonial vessels;

Buried him with the rites of a princely lord;

Erected a statue of Gu Chen, enshrining it in the ancestral temple of the Great Han, to be worshipped;

And decreed that future generations must perform grand rituals of kneeling and bowing.

For this, there would be no opposition.

The current court of the Great Han was not what it once was; now, it consisted mostly of those selected by Gu Chen, who held deep respect for him.

Even if someone wanted to oppose,

No one would choose to go against the prevailing trend at such a time.

It was destined to be a monumental event across the Great Han.

When Gu Chen’s coffin was sent back to Julu, the mourning sounds along the way never ceased, and countless citizens gathered by the Luoshui River, merely wishing to offer incense for Gu Chen.

The collapse of faith——

For an individual, it was an unimaginable sorrow.

And Gu Chen was the faith of the world’s people!

Zhuge Liang was also deeply saddened, but as the regent minister appointed by Gu Chen, he had to bear all the responsibilities at this time.

He ordered the court officials to determine a posthumous title for Gu Chen.

And quickly made public the results of the officials’ evaluations, hoping to use such a joyous event to dilute the impact of Gu Chen’s passing.

Allowing ordinary citizens’ descendants to be on the list.

This would be a source of great excitement for the common people at any time.

——But at present, it was of no use.

Even the families of those selected found it difficult to escape from the sorrow.

It was even more sorrowful.

It was Gu Chen who bestowed this opportunity upon them.

And now this Saint had departed.

Heavy sorrow pervaded the Great Han.

And under such circumstances, Gu Chen’s posthumous title was finally determined.

——Zhaolie.

Illustrious and beautiful in appearance is called Zhao; well-heard and widely knowledgeable is called Zhao;

Commemorating Gu Chen’s achievements in expanding territories and establishing the foundation of the dynasty.

Having merit in pacifying the people is called Lie; firm and overcoming challenges in conquests is called Lie;

Commemorating Gu Chen’s lifelong contributions to the nation and the world.

In fact, given Gu Chen’s accomplishments, no posthumous title could fully encapsulate everything he did.

For he had already transcended the status of a mere subject.

Liu Shan would have liked to bestow a royal title, or even an imperial title, upon Gu Chen.

But Gu Chen’s final words had to suppress this thought.

No matter what, perfection is unachievable;

However, in Gu Yi’s view, given Gu Chen’s character, this posthumous title was sufficient.

Everything he did had already spread as a legend throughout the world.

Why rely on a mere posthumous title to declare all he had done?

....

Ps: It’s the end of the month, begging for monthly votes!
