Narrow Imperial State, Dongdu Bay, on the battleship "Longxing".

Although the facilities and equipment had been prepared, it took some time to set up the venue, and the signing ceremony of the surrender and armistice agreement officially began at around 10 a.m. Because the members of the Entente bloc, such as the Empire and the Kingdom of Goju, had declared war on the Sakui Empire, it was necessary for representatives of all countries to sign the armistice agreement and exchange texts in both languages.

The ceremony was very tedious and did not end until noon.

In the afternoon, the big drama was staged.

Emperor Narrow had already come to the battleship "Longxing" in the early morning, but he had been staying in the commander's cabin.

As for lunch, it was sent by Liu Changxun's secretary and served in the officer's cafeteria.

Two meat and one vegetable, a bowl of seaweed soup, and a bowl of white rice, no matter how simple it is, the narrow emperor ate it so well that he almost didn't lick the plate clean.

The gobbling up look was like he hadn't eaten a full meal for a long time.

When the secretary talked about it, Liu Changxun didn't believe it and felt that the secretary was joking.

Although he had long heard that because of the high-intensity strategic bombing and comprehensive strategic blockade, an unprecedented famine broke out in the Narrow Imperial State after the beginning of spring, Liu Changxun felt that in such a large country, even if the common people could not eat enough, the Narrow Emperor should not be hungry.

No matter how dilapidated the Narrow Imperial Kingdom is, it will definitely be able to guarantee three meals a day for the Narrow Emperor.

Seeing Emperor Narrow, Liu Changxun knew that the secretary was not joking.

That short, thin, little old man who looks like he has rickets, is it the Narrow Emperor?

This person is Zhaohe, the 124th Emperor of the Sayi Imperial Kingdom.

In fact, he is not yet 40 years old, and he has nothing to do with the "little old man", but because he is too thin and small, coupled with long-term hunger, he looks a little old.

Looking at his face, you can know that it has indeed been a long time since he has eaten a full meal.

Not to mention anything else, the oil stains on the corners of his mouth have not been wiped off.

Liu Changxun also sighed, reminded the Narrow Emperor, and handed over his handkerchief.

This is the case with all the dignified and narrow emperors, and it is conceivable what kind of life the civilians of the narrow imperial kingdom lived.

In the afternoon, the canonization ceremony was held.

According to tradition, it is the king of the subject state who travels to the empire and receives the imperial canonization at the time of the Hajj to establish his dominance in his own country.

Normally, the king of a subject state was only required to be canonized once in his lifetime, that is, in the year in which he was crowned or in the following year he made a pilgrimage to the empire.

After that, only envoys were sent to the empire every year to pay tribute, and they received imperial titles and titles issued by the imperial family to represent the legitimacy of the rule.

As a rule, only the king of a subject is qualified to be king.

Hajj and canonization were not only rituals, but also the foundation of empires and vassals.

On this basis, the Empire provides basic security for the subject countries, including homeland security, and the subject countries support and participate in military operations initiated by the Empire by sending personnel and providing resources, etc., to safeguard common interests and obtain rewards proportional to their contributions.

For nearly a hundred years, the five kings of the Kingdom of Goju have done this.

In fact, this is the key to the Empire's inability to tolerate the Lower High Kingdom and its inability to reconcile with the Narrow Empire.

The reason is that the existence of the Lower High Kingdom has made the Empire's promise to the High Giant Kingdom an empty talk, which has seriously damaged the reputation and prestige of the Empire.

Of course, the Imperial State was no ordinary vassal state.

At the time of the surrender, the Narrows Emperor made only one request: not to abolish the Narrows and to recognize that the Narrows were still the supreme rulers of the Narrows.

The Narrow Emperor did not propose that the Emperor should not be set up above the Narrow Emperor.

What is being done now is to let the imperial family override the narrow imperial family, and only by obtaining the canonization of the imperial family can the rule of the narrow emperor have legitimacy.

If you do not receive the Imperial Imperial Canonization, even if you are of the right blood, you will not have the right to rule the Narrow Imperial Kingdom.

came to Dongdu Bay to canonize the Narrow Emperor, not because the Narrow Emperor was ill and could not withstand the fatigue of the boat, but to do this outside the gate of the Narrow Emperor country, so that the 70 million Narrow Emperor knew that the Narrow Emperor, who had been worshiped by them as a demigod for more than 2,000 years, had bowed down to the imperial family.

From now on, the emperor of the empire will be the emperor of the narrow imperial kingdom.

To say, a few decades ago, in the era of Chen Bingxun, this thing should have been done!

If Chen Bingxun had not been benevolent back then, he canonized Emperor Narrow on behalf of Emperor Shiwu, and made Emperor Shiwu the Emperor the Emperor of the Narrow Empire, or let the prince who went out with the army stay, exercise the right to rule, and let the Narrow Emperor become a puppet, I am afraid that the Narrow Emperor would have been surrendered long ago.

According to historical records, the Imperial Kingdom of Sayi begged for the canonization of the empire at that time.

The reason is also very simple, after being bombarded by Chen Bingxun with a huge cannon, the Narrow Imperial State, which had been locked for hundreds of years, suddenly found that its former neighbor had become so powerful.

Subsequently, the wind blew again.

Under this trend, the commoners from the narrow emperor down to the bottom all believed that it was not a shameful thing to learn from the powerful countries of the western continent.

Who would have thought that Chen Bingxun simply refused, and then left the Imperial Kingdom with the fleet.

Of course, the history books are written like this just to reflect Chen Bingxun's heroism and generosity.

The real situation is that after Chen Bingxun led a fleet to knock on the door of the Sagi Empire, which attracted the covetousness of the Western powers, the Bran Kingdom even sent a fleet into the Guia Ocean in an attempt to make the Sagi Imperial Kingdom open for trade in the same way after the Liang Xia Empire.

In order to monopolize the Imperial Kingdom of Sayi, Chen Bingxun led a fleet to Yanhai according to the edict of Emperor Shiwu.

In the decades that followed, Chen Bingxun fought against the navies of Western powers such as the Yanhai and Fanyanyang and the Bran Kingdom until he was martyred outside the Kibu Fortress.

There is also a very key reason for not canonizing the Narrow Emperor, which is to stabilize the rising Nuland Federation.

Although the Nuland Navy was not strong enough at that time, the Imperial Navy was also not strong, and there was no reason to add another enemy. The point is that the Nuland Navy is the main opponent of the Empire in the Guia, and when Chen Bingxun is on an expedition to the Fanyan Ocean, it is definitely necessary to keep the rear stable.

Under the circumstances, if the Emperor was canonized and the Imperial State was monopolized, the Newland Federation would most likely join the camp of the Western powers and use troops in the Guia. Because Chen Bingxun lacked skills and could not fight on both sides at the same time, the probability of the empire's defeat was extremely high.

The most ideal outcome is only to keep the overseas territory of the Guia Ocean and miss the opportunity to expand into the Fanyan Ocean.

Without the resources from the surrounding areas of Fanyanyang, as well as the market in the Fanluo region, there would be no comprehensive industrialization later, and the current Liangxia Empire would not have been possible.

It can be seen that Chen Bingxun did not look down on the narrow imperial state, but was forced by the situation.

In addition, at that time, it was an order from Emperor Shiwu, and Chen Bingxun was ordered by the emperor to act.

Now, none of these problems exist.

All the great powers have entered the war, and they are divided into two distinct camps, and they must fight for victory, so even if the Narrow Emperor is canonized, it will not make the situation worse.

The canonization ceremony was actually very simple, less than fifteen minutes before and after.

The key is one thing, the great prince of the empire will give the canonization gold book stamped with the national seal to the narrow emperor, and the narrow emperor has to receive the decree after three bows and nine knocks.

After this was completed, Emperor Sasa became a courtier of the imperial family and became the child emperor of the empire.

Of course, it's still the godson kind.
