"I have met the prince, the marshal."
The loud salutes of the crowd rang out in the hall, like thunder.
Under the piercing gazes, Xiao Yi and Guan Yubai sat down on both sides of the hall, and the hall was quiet for a moment.
The King of Zhennan looked at Xiao Yi impatiently. If he hadn't been concerned about the people present, he would have shouted out. King Zhennan held up the tea cup and drank tea to adjust his mood, but he heard Xiao Yi casually say:
"Father, now that all the counties have been settled and the people are happy, my son thinks it's time to establish a country!"
Xiao Yi's words made the whole hall silent for a moment. Then, a stone struck a thousand waves, and all the officers and soldiers in the hall were boiling!
There are some things that no one dares to discuss on the table. In fact, many familiar colleagues have already discussed this topic in secret. Since their southern Xinjiang has separated from Dayu, now they have brought Baiyue and Nanliang to the throne. , Xiye and other countries have taken over the territory. In just a few years, the southern border area has expanded several times. Is it time to establish a country? !
However, founding a country is not such a simple matter. First of all, who should take the throne? !
No one in southern Xinjiang knows that the King of Zhennan has long been ousted by the prince, not to mention that this huge foundation was also won by the prince on the battlefield...
This issue has left many people scratching their heads and not daring to put the issue of nationhood on the table easily.
Now that the prince is speaking, he must have already made plans in his heart!
Their southern Xinjiang is finally going to establish a country!
Then all of them are founding fathers!
Most of the people in the hall had brilliant eyes and radiant faces, wishing to surrender immediately and shout long live.
Only King Zhennan, who was sitting at the top, was dumbfounded and almost spit out the hot tea in his mouth...
After a moment, King Zhennan hurriedly swallowed the tea, and then pretended to be calm and put the tea cup on the table aside, but his heart was almost roaring:
The traitor is here again!
First he conquered Baiyue, Nanliang and Xiye without permission, and now he talks about establishing a country without permission!
You are so reckless in everything you do, why don’t you know to warn your father beforehand? !
Thinking about it, King Zhennan’s head was throbbing, and he clenched his right hand into a fist, resisting the urge to beat the traitor.
Does this traitor have a brain? Does he know what he is doing? !
When Zhennan Palace became independent last year, it was because of bad luck that the late Emperor Dayu passed away. Dayu's court was in a state of distress and had no time to pay attention to their southern border, so they luckily escaped the disaster.
Now they are proposing to establish a country. Isn’t this a clear provocation to Dayu? !
Once Dayu is angered, the new emperor will be furious and will send his troops south, with millions of troops approaching the city...
The emperor's wrath laid down millions of corpses and bled thousands of miles.
When I think about the fact that I have worked hard all my life, and finally managed to be happy with my grandson, but because of this treacherous son's reckless behavior, I may die without a whole body, and the decades-old foundation of the Zhennan Palace will be destroyed!
However, no matter what he says, this traitor will probably not listen, right? !
The veins on King Zhennan’s forehead jumped and jumped, and his eyes looked expectantly at Guan Yubai on the other side. Guan Yubai has always been more stable than Xiao Yi, a rebellious son, and the two of them are quite speculative. If Guan Yubai were to advise this rebellious son not to be too impulsive...
Guan Yubai seemed to understand King Zhennan's eyes, smiled slightly, stood up, and bowed to King Zhennan righteously: "Your Majesty, the prince is right, now Southern Xinjiang is separated from Dayu Independence, if we don’t establish a country, people will think that we are afraid of Dayu..."
Guan Yubai’s words were like a sharp arrow shooting straight into the heart of King Zhennan. King Zhennan’s face became even more ugly. He was not afraid of Dayu in his heart...
Guan Yubai added another word of advice as if nothing had happened: "Your Majesty, establishing a country is also establishing prestige."
To establish a country is also to establish prestige. King Zhennan squinted his eyes thoughtfully, repeating this sentence in his mind, his mind turning quickly: If they don't establish a country, will Dayu feel that Southern Xinjiang is weak, so he is afraid that Dayu will not Dare to establish a country? Everyone in this world bullies the weak and fears the strong, no matter whether they are ordinary people or high-ranking emperors, there is no exception.
If Dayu thought that Southern Xinjiang was afraid of Dayu, would he covet Southern Xinjiang instead?
Establishing a country is also establishing prestige. Once a country is established in southern Xinjiang, Dayu will not be sure of their strength and will not dare to take action easily...
The more King Zhennan thought about it, the more he felt that establishing a country was the right way. He looked at Guan Yubai with approval. Fortunately, he reminded himself that Guan Yubai was indeed many times more reliable than his rebellious son!
Seeing the relaxed look on King Zhennan's face, Xiao Yi said nonchalantly: "If my father has no objection, then let's choose a day to ascend the throne!"
Hearing this, everyone was shocked and could not hide the shock in their eyes. They did not expect that the prince planned to let the prince ascend the throne.
Tang Qinghong quickly took a look at Xiao Yi's face and saw the smile on Xiao Yi's face. He took the lead and knelt down decisively. Then, everyone else also looked at Xiao Yi and saw that he was not displeased. Instead, their smiles grew even stronger, and they knelt down one after another, bowed their heads and clasped their fists, and shouted in unison: "Please, Your Majesty, choose a day to ascend the throne for the sake of the overall situation!"
Looking down at the dwarfed generals, King Zhennan looked calm on the surface, but was trembling in his heart: Hey, being a grandfather is not easy. In order to protect this inheritance for his grandson, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and ascend the throne!
With a casual glance, Xiao Yi knew that his father was thinking about something else, and he curled his lips with a half-smile.
Since the southern territory is independent, it must establish a country. Since it establishes a country, it naturally needs an emperor.
Xiao Yi himself is too lazy to be an emperor. For him, ascending the throne means two words:
Trouble.
Anyway, he holds the real power in this southern territory, and his father is responsible for all the troublesome things like socializing on the surface. Anyway, his father has always been concerned about face, and he likes these things in name only, and he also This gives him more free time, and he can occasionally take his Crown Princess around for fun.
Life is short, you must enjoy yourself in time!
Everyone in the hall secretly exchanged glances with each other while bowing down. Most people, such as Tian He and Yao Yan, had a clear mind.
It is both unexpected and natural that the crown prince would ascend the throne.
Given the prince’s temperament, this is most likely because he wants to be lazy!
Southern Xinjiang, no, the power of Southern Xinjiang is in the hands of the Crown Prince. They and other ministers know it well, but outsiders may not know that the Crown Prince wants to show the prince to his face. You can take a break and leave the red tape to the prince to deal with!
I have to say, this is really the prince’s style!
Yao Yan couldn't help but quietly raised his head to glance at Xiao Yi's expression, and saw that he was still sitting lazily on the armchair, yawning lazily.
When Yao Yan's eyes met Xiao Yi's, Xiao Yi winked at him mischievously, as if to confirm his thoughts, which made Yao Yan suddenly feel an indescribable feeling.
The King of Zhennan cleared his throat, raised his hand, and said forcefully but calmly: "We are all united, so I will not refuse! Everyone, get up."
While speaking, King Zhennan was almost crying in his heart. His grandson's father was so unreliable, and Jin Sun could only rely on himself as his grandfather. For his grandson, he must hold on!
Hearing this, everyone finally stood up.
"Father," Xiao Yi didn't seem to notice that King Zhennan was about to cry, and suggested again with a smile, "I have already turned over the almanac, June 14th is the auspicious day, so father will choose this day. It’s time to ascend the throne!”
When I heard this time, the atmosphere was strange for a moment. Some smart people have already guessed the special nature of this day. Isn't this the birthday of the Crown Princess?
Is this day a coincidence, or did the prince choose it deliberately?
In fact, there is no need to ask, they already have the answer.
Judging from how much the Crown Prince cherishes the Crown Princess, it is self-evident.
Next, the hall was filled with harmony, and everyone agreed one after another, unanimously agreeing that this was a great day, and so on. However, facing the general trend, King Zhennan could not say a word "no" at all. Neng forced himself to smile and agreed.
In less than a stick of incense, the founding of the country was officially decided.
Except for King Zhennan, the other soldiers and officials were all immersed in the joy of establishing a kingdom in their southern territory, and all of them were excited.
On February 28th, the Zhennan Palace issued a notice to all directions, establishing a country in the south. The country was named "Yue". The territory extended from Nanjiang, Baiyue, Nanliang, and Xiye to a number of small counties, Qili County, and Da Chijun, Luo Siamjun and others.
Across the southern border, everyone is celebrating, and the people are cheering and immersed in joy!
Especially Luoyue City, the city is even more prosperous. Although the official announcement has not yet been made, it is conceivable that once King Zhennan ascends the throne, he will definitely make Luo Yue City his capital. From now on, the people of Luo Yue City will naturally rise!
For a time, many foreign businessmen flocked in to buy houses and rent shops in Luoyue City, making it a bustling place.
Of course the busiest one is the Zhennan Palace. Gifts from various palaces, cities and counties are pouring into the Palace and Bixiaotang. Baihui and the others are busy counting the gifts every day and sorting them out one by one. Register and store.
For several days, everyone in Bixiao Hall was as busy as a spinning top. The most idle person was probably Nangong Yue, who was already eight months pregnant. The maids did not dare to bother them with trivial matters. Nangong Yue.
On the third day of March, Nangong Yue had nothing to do, lazily rubbing her belly and flipping through the gift list, when Magpie suddenly came to report that Young Master Yan came to see the Crown Princess.
It is not unusual for Yan Xijun to come to Bixiaotang, but what is rare is that he actually comes to see him.
Nangong Yue is now heavy and rarely sees guests on weekdays, but this time, she agreed, straightened her clothes a little, and then went to the Shu Zhi Hall in the front yard to meet Yan Xijun with the help of the maid.
After the two people saw each other, Yan Xijun did not sit down, but saluted again. Unlike the first time, this time it was a formal salute, which showed a hint of prudence.
Nangong Yue stared thoughtfully at the other party.
Yan Xijun made eye contact with Nangong Yue without hesitation and said straight to the point:
"The Crown Princess, I came here to see the Crown Princess specifically to ask for a hand in marriage. I beg you to marry the eldest daughter in the house to me!"
Yan Xijun also knew in his heart that his behavior today could be said to be illegal.
He wanted to marry Xiao Fei. Logically speaking, he should report it to the elders in the family and ask a matchmaker to come and find out before formally proposing marriage. However, his aunt is unreliable, and his biological mother has a low status and limited knowledge. It would be too much to ask a matchmaker to come to his door. It was careless and not careful enough, so I just did it myself...
He must first let the Crown Princess see his sincerity.
Nangong Yue's expression remained unchanged, she looked at him calmly and said, "Mr. Yan, since you have come to me, have you thought clearly about the pros and cons? You and Sister Fei are not a good match."
Nangong Yue’s tone was soothing, but the meaning behind her words was extremely sharp.
"I know." Yan Xijun looked at Nangong Yue firmly, his waist still straight, "I am not worthy of Miss Xiao, but I will protect her whole life, wholeheartedly."
Nangong Yue was not easily moved, and her words became even sharper: "I believe you are whole-hearted at the moment, but time is ruthless and people's hearts can change. Sister Fei is the eldest daughter of the palace. After her father ascends the throne, she Even if you are a legitimate princess, your master is an honor, but there will always be people behind your back who will point fingers at you and make irresponsible remarks..."
Nangong Yue can imagine that once Yan Xijun, who is the concubine of Yan Mansion, marries Xiao Fei, there will be countless good people gossiping behind his back, such as eating soft rice, climbing up dragons and phoenixes, relying on women...
If the mind is not strong enough, it can turn a pair of divine lovers into resentful couples.
"One day, two days, one year, two years... you may not care, but what about ten or twenty years later? Can you still maintain your original intention?" Nangong Yue said almost questioningly.
Yan Xijun is not a fool, so he naturally understands what Nangong Yue means.
In other words, long, long ago, when he fell in love with Xiao Fei, he had thought about the problems he had to face.
"Prince Princess, if I cared about other people's eyes and thoughts, I would not join the army or move away from the Yan Mansion..."
If he wanted to strive for a glorious reputation, he should stay in the Yan Mansion obediently every day, and live out his remaining life in peace and order, just like his legitimate mother wished.
But he was unwilling to do so.
Why should he make himself mediocre all his life for the sake of others?
The day is his own.
After getting married, it belongs to him and his wife.
Nangong Yue seemed to have noticed what he was not saying, and the corners of her lips curled up slightly, "Then what if the consort is not allowed to participate in politics?"
What if a prince-in-law can only be a prince-son-in-law and cannot hold any actual position, and he will be rich and noble all his life but can only live in ignorance? !
Nangong Yue looked at Yan Xijun with a smile. This time, she was a little surprised. Yan Xijun must be an ambitious person. She didn't expect that her words did not touch him at all.
"Your Majesty, I won't." Yan Xijun said without hesitation.
Xiao Yi is a talented person, and those who follow him and fight on the battlefield know this best.
It is precisely because the Crown Prince is such a Crown Prince that all of them are loyal and willing to sacrifice their lives and blood for the Crown Prince, no matter what!
This answer from Yan Xijun made Nangong Yue even more surprised. The smile in his eyes became thicker, and the eyes that looked at Yan Xijun became much softer.
Quie'er and Huamei on the side tried their best to keep their faces straight and hold back laughter. At this moment, she really felt that the eyes of the Crown Princess had a feeling of "the more a mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, the more pleasing she is to her eyes."
Nangong Yue pondered for a moment and then ordered: "Huamei, go and invite the eldest girl."
Huamei hurriedly accepted the order and left, but Yan Xijun, who had always been relatively calm, stiffened when he heard this, and there was a hint of embarrassment in his words.
Nangong Yue had a hint of interest in her eyes, but she never said anything to Yan Xijun. She just drank tea quietly and let him stand aside.
If you want to marry a wife, it can’t be too easy, right?
Quietness spreads in the hall, with only the sound of the spring breeze blowing the trees and flowers in the courtyard, like a leisurely spring song.
At this time, time seemed to have slowed down a lot, and I don’t know how long it had passed before I saw a figure in an aqua dress walking slowly towards this side. The girl was dressed very well. It was a homely look, her black hair was only **** in a loose bun, and there were no other accessories except a hosta and a pair of jade earrings.
The youth of 28 is the most beautiful and splendid period for a woman. It does not need too many ornaments at all. It is already so dazzling that people can't take their eyes away.
Yan Xijun watched Xiao Fei approaching with burning eyes...
Xiao Fei, who entered the courtyard, naturally saw Yan Xijun in the hall, with a flash of surprise in his eyes. Huamei just told her that her sister-in-law wanted to see her, and didn't mention Yan Xijun at all.
Why is Yan Xijun here? !
Xiao Fei suddenly had the answer in her heart, and her eyes sparkled, shining like obsidian in the sunlight.
A daughter is growing up in my family! Nangong Yue felt a little emotional in her heart, her sister Fei had really grown up! Immediately, a feeling of reluctance began to grow in her heart...
