Become a feudal king from today - #880 - Chapter 894: King's Heart
“Your Highness is a thousand years old! Your Highness is a thousand years old…”
Zhao Xu rode on horseback, and the people and merchants on the street turned their attention to him. read
There is love, trust and adoration in his eyes.
They consciously stood on both sides of the street and kept raising their fists and shouting.
The sound waves were so loud that they almost overturned Yan City.
Although they were far away in Yancheng, they had been following the war in Jiangnan through newspapers.
Now, King Yan is the soul of Da Song.
King Yan’s every move will affect their hearts.
Therefore, they naturally expected King Yan to clear out the powerful clans of Dashong and put an end to the civil strife.
Furthermore, Dasong has been weak for a long time.
In the past, people would not talk about state affairs, and it would be sad to do so.
But now it’s completely different. Under the leadership of King Yan, they are full of confidence.
This victory undoubtedly strengthened their confidence.
They no longer have to be as frightened as they used to be.
In the land of Dasong, from now on, they will no longer be oppressed by wealthy and powerful families, nor will they be massacred by foreign tribes.
They can live a stable and prosperous life just by relying on their hard-working hands.
At this moment, Zhao Xu was sitting on the horse.
Facing the enthusiastic people, all the fatigue in his body seemed to disappear at this moment.
The years of hard work, sweat, and blood and tears seem to have been worth it.
Finally, with his own will, he defeated the powerful clan and transformed Dasong.
In this threatening era, let Dasong be reborn so that the contemporary century-old humiliation will not be repeated.
But looking at the innocent faces of the people, he felt that he still had a lot to do to maintain the smiles on their faces.
Dasong is reborn like a phoenix from nirvana.
But for this reborn Eastern dynasty, the danger has not yet passed.
In the north of Dasong, Beidi, the sworn enemy for two hundred years, has not yet been destroyed.
But now, the country of Ross, known as the Bear of the North, has extended its tentacles here again.
Facing Japan across the sea to the east, the southern feudal lord led by the Watanabe case is still resisting, waiting for the arrival of the Western natives to open the cage he has set.
At the same time, intelligence analysis was revealed from the Russian Foreign Minister.
The Western-Turkish coalition forces gathered by Britain will arrive in Tianzhu in only two or three months.
They will use Tianzhu as a bridgehead to prevent him from seizing the colonies in the southern region of Dongtu.
The ultimate goal is to hang him.
This signal was equivalent to the Westerners putting the muzzle of their gun on his head.
Is it tolerable, which one is intolerable?
Therefore, the internal strife in Dasong has been calmed down, but there are still many battles going on outside.
His responsibility is to maintain the growth of Dasong’s trade while fighting the war.
Avoid foreign wars that may affect development.
In addition, there is the Tubo territory.
This place, like Beidi, must be captured.
For him, that is the territory of Dasong.
While he was thinking, he suddenly saw a group of forbidden troops appearing in front of him.
In the center of the Forbidden Army is Zhao Heng’s Luan Jia.
Zhao Heng personally greeted him.
Arriving in front of Luan Jia, Zhao Xu dismounted, and Zhao Heng and Concubine Mi walked down.
Seeing Zhao Xu, Zhao Heng was all smiles.
The betrayal of powerful clans and the glorification of civil strife were a wound in his heart.
For an emperor, it is the greatest shame to shatter the inheritance left by his ancestors.
What’s more, he has a very happy personality.
“King Yan, you are truly the pillar of our Dasong Kingdom. This great victory in Yizhou has finally put an end to the civil strife and unified Dasong. I am very pleased. Compared with you, I am nothing.” Zhao Heng grabbed Zhao Xu’s Arms, squeezed hard.
He was really happy, it was like the debt owed by his father was repaid by his son.
“My father has given me too much praise, and my son is just doing his duty.” Zhao Xu said with a smile.
If Zhao Heng had exaggerated like this a few years ago, he would have been shocked, fearing that his great achievements would shock his master.
But now, he knew that Zhao Heng had no ill intentions.
Hearing this, Zhao Heng nodded with satisfaction.
But he still couldn’t help but sigh in his heart.
If he had treated King Yan like this from the beginning, perhaps he and King Yan would truly be loving like a father and a son.
Rather than just another layer of faint estrangement like now.
As if to make Zhao Xu happy, he added: “Before you come back, I have decreed that in the future, your mother and concubine should be called Queen Mother instead.”
Officials such as Liu Fu and Yang Feng accompanied Luan Jia on both sides.
They nodded to Zhao Xu at this time, confirming this.
Zhao Xu was startled.
Zhao Heng first decreed to make him the prince, and now he made Concubine Mi the queen.
He had let go of the last bit of attachment in his heart and completely cut ties with the powerful clan.
After all, it is the ancestral motto of the Zhao royal family not to make a woman from a poor family a queen.
In ancient times, it took courage for any emperor to break the ancestral precepts.
“Father is wise.” Zhao Xu looked at Zhao Heng and smiled.
Zhao Heng is the emperor of Dasong, and his move is of great significance to Dasong.
Although he destroyed the powerful clan, the powerful clan was physically wiped out.
But in the hearts of many people, the shadow left by the powerful clan is still there.
Therefore, Zhao Hengli’s concubine Mi, who was born in a poor family, was a heavy blow to those who still looked up to the rich and powerful.
For Dasong Hanmen, it is a heart booster.
“Hahaha…” Zhao Heng couldn’t help laughing when he was praised by Zhao Xu for the first time in such a long time.
Zhao Xu looked at Concubine Mi at this time, no, it was Empress Mi, and said: “Congratulations, Queen Mother.”
The former Concubine Mi and now the Empress Mi looked at Zhao Xu with only mother’s concern for her child in her eyes.
To her, the title didn’t matter at all.
But she also knew the meaning of this title, so she accepted it.
Touching Zhao Xu’s head, she said: “Since the war in the south is over, you can stay in the palace for a few more days in the future, so you should hurry up and give birth to a big fat boy with Susu, so that your mother and your father can rest assured and enjoy the happiness of family life.”
Yang Susu was also there, and her sedan chair was behind the imperial carriage.
When the imperial carriage stopped, she got off the sedan chair and personally supported Queen Mi.
Hearing this, her face couldn’t help but blush, and she looked at Zhao Xu with shame and anger.
“Your Majesty is right.” Yang Feng also joined in the fun and winked at Yang Susu.
Liu Fu looked at Zhao Xu and smiled very ambiguously.
Obviously, it was very interesting that the King of Yan was urged to have a baby by Queen Mi in public.
Zhao Xu had no choice but to urge everyone to return to Wuji Palace before Concubine Mi said anything more explicit.
Halfway, Yang Susu returned to the palace with the service of Feng’er and Luan’er.
He and the civil and military officials went straight to Wuji Palace.
Now that everyone was there, he could introduce the war situation in Yizhou to them.
At the same time, he would learn about the government affairs during the war.
The most important thing was that the unification of Dasong was imminent, and naturally there would be no distinction between Jiangnan and Jiangbei in the future.
He and the court officials had to consider the overall situation and restore the people’s livelihood in Dasong that had been damaged by the war.
Among them, the military needed to set up defense zones.
The government affairs needed to take over many Jiangnan cities.
Moreover, in order to defeat the Western countries more efficiently in the future, it was necessary to further reform the military and government agencies.
