——Two in one, 4,000 words in a big chapter——

The Son of Heaven of the Dahong Dynasty was not on these people, and they secretly hid it as early as when they realized that the danger was coming.

The location was in an inn in Cangcheng, buried in the ground, and it was hidden by an old minister at the time, but as early as two years ago, the old minister could not withstand the punishment and died in prison.

Fortunately, the search is not very wide.

Yang Mu ordered Jinyiwei to rush to Cangcheng immediately, and be sure to find the Son of Heaven and bring it back completely.

Because after moving the capital, there was some distance between the two places, so after he got the Seal of the Son of Heaven, it was already half a month later.

The seal of the Son of Heaven of the Dahong Dynasty is not a boxy seal in Yang Mu's impression, but it is also engraved with some inscriptions around it.

At the top, there are some reliefs, which can vaguely be seen as a picture of the first emperor of the Dahong Dynasty ascending the throne, preaching the set of orders from heaven.

At the moment when they saw Tianzixi, Ji Anling and Ji Qingyue, who were standing next to them, breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time, it could be seen that they were very uncomfortable.

The Son of Heaven, who represents the supreme power of a dynasty, was personally handed over to a foreign emperor by them, and in order to survive and have a little hope in his heart, he also wronged himself to enter the palace to serve this person.

There are always a thousand kinds of pain in their hearts, and they can't show it.

Yang Mu just looked at it for a while, then put down the Tianzi Seal, nodded and said: "Yes, let the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Jinyiwei prepare, and tomorrow Qichen will rush to the Dahong Dynasty, bring the national letter, and present this great gift." ”

"Congratulations to Your Majesty, concubine."

Ji Anling and Ji Qingyue saluted Yang Mu at the same time.

"Hahaha, congratulations to yourselves." Yang Mu nodded at the two of them and said, "Okay, the matter has finally come to an end, during this time, your body has almost been raised, so let's go to the palace and sleep tonight." ”

Entering the temple and sleeping ...... It's still a day.

Ji Anling and Ji Qingyue's hearts are lost, these days they are cultivating in the palace, brocade clothes and jade food, enjoying the service of the palace maid every day, compared with the daily punishment in the past, it is simply a fairy-like day, I still have a little luck in my heart, I thought that the emperor of Cangguo would forget about it, or that the emperor of Cangguo just valued their identity and kept it for later use, the harem is as beautiful as a cloud, and they have already forgotten about them, but I didn't expect to point it out today.

Yang Mu didn't care what the reaction of the two was, he directly hugged them one by one, and moved his hands and feet in the hall, and after a while, there was a coquettish panting, and under the service of the palace maid, he entered the warm pavilion of the inner hall.

……

In the fifteenth year of Taiding, February.

At this time, when the dragon raised its head, Cangguo sent the Vermilion Bird Legion through the Yan Country and stationed in the territory of Xiangguo on the grounds of aiding Xiangguo.

At the same time, it accepted the request of the Yuan State for annexation and announced that the Yuan State would be included in the list of subject states.

This time, it is equivalent to pouring a scoop of water in a pot of boiling oil.

What does this mean?

Cangguo has shot!

All countries, without exception, understand this as the revenge of the Cangguo, and a kind of response to the sudden announcement of the break with the Cangguo by the Chu State last year.

The two big countries are finally going to wrestle their wrists!

Everyone can see that Yuan is Chu's neighbor in the east, and it is too far away from Cangguo, and it is impossible for the two countries to have any normal military exchanges.

Cangguo, you want to be famous!

The countries speculated, and at the same time stepped up their preparations, sending envoys to Cangguo in an attempt to find out some rumors.

Several small countries are the most jubilant, in the past few years, they have been forced too tightly by the Chu State, and finally got on the thigh of the Cangguo, so they had a little respite, but far water can't quench the thirst, as long as the strength of the Chu State is strong, there may be a danger of extinction at any time.

Now, finally, when Cangguo is about to use a knife against Chu State, a dragon and tiger fight between each other is about to be staged, and there will be an answer to who will die in the two countries.

It's a delight!

And those big countries that do not have a border with Cangguo also have a positive view of this.

The war between Cang and Chu can consume the strength of both sides, and it is the opportunity for the rise of various countries, such as Wei and Wu, to stand up impatiently, create a large number of public opinion among the people, and spread the news that Chu is going to war with Cang.

Because, the rumors in this era are very terrible, even if they are nobles and those in power, there is no shortage of enthusiastic people, and if more news comes out, it may be able to cause changes in public opinion in the courts of the two countries.

As a result, soon after, some countries that were not adjacent to Chu expressed their support for Cangguo.

It is precisely because Cangguo is famous, and the main purpose shown is not to compete for the world, but to look like he wants to fight with Chu State, so even Ruan Guo does not have much hostility towards Cangguo, but waits and waits for changes, ready to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight.

At the same time, the nobles of the Chu State began to attack the Chu Emperor Chu Minne.

In everyone's hearts, it was Emperor Chu's provocation for no reason that annoyed Cangguo, and all the losses suffered by everyone today were because of the emperor's stupidity and arrogance.

The nobles of the family asked the Emperor of Chu to write a letter of state and sent envoys to rebuild the old friendship with the Cangguo.

But soon news came out that Chu Emperor Xiong Minne had been in the deep palace for several days, refusing to meet with any ministers of the family, and heard that the head of the Qu family was blocking the door outside the palace, and finally was beaten out by the palace attendants in the middle of the night.

The emperor's attitude is already very clear!

For a time, there were voices of discussion in Chu, and all kinds of rumors were rampant.

And the most widely discussed is to compare the first emperor of Chu Huang to the Jin Kingdom.

The subjects and people of the Chu State all thought that their Emperor Majesty, just like the previous emperors of the Jin State in the past, got carried away after expanding the territory and was stubborn and self-serving.

As a result, all kinds of discussions and rumors fermented little by little, and the prestige of Chu Emperor Xiong Minne in the Chu State began to plummet, and the nobles who had always trusted him in the past also began to look a little out of tune.

For all this, Chu Emperor Xiong Minne was very angry.

The approach of the nobles of the family is simply excessive!

Rats' eyes!

Looking around, in the entire court, there was no one who understood him!

You must know that even at the beginning, when he had just issued an edict to break with the Chu State, there were still some courtiers who agreed with his idea after listening to him analyze the pros and cons.

Now, those who supported it at the beginning are also silent, do they see that the situation is serious?

Emperor Chu's heart swelled with sadness.

At this time, he was extremely envious of Cangguo, because in the court of Cangguo, the majesty of the emperor is incomparable, even if it is a big national strategy, it can be decided in a word, and the emperor of Cangguo does not have to be constrained by the family, he can do whatever he wants, even if it is a rumor, it is impossible to spread among the people.

On the one hand, it is because Cangguo has the kind of artifact of "Dacang Times", so that the thinking of the people of Cangguo is highly unified, and it has almost achieved the emperor's edict, and the officials and people below have shouted and agreed.

On the other hand, Cangguo has a very harsh criminal law, and those who dare to spread rumors, if they are traced, the circumstances are serious, it is a major crime to kill the head!

Due to the propaganda on the "Dacang Times", it generally has a very large credibility, so even the imperial courts of various countries buy almost every issue, as a way to understand Cangguo, and also as a means to understand some major events in various countries in the world.

Because, today's Cangcheng, that is, the new Cangcheng, has confirmed the status of the first city in the world, with developed commerce and trade, merchants from all over the world coming and going, scholars from all over the world gathering, and a place with a brilliant culture, which has become the center of the world and a window to see the world.

For example, at this time, there was a newspaper on the table of Chu Emperor Xiong Minne.

The date indicated above is February 23, which is a month ago.

Because the two countries have severed diplomatic relations and trade, the monthly newspaper is not easy to come by, and it took a lot of twists and turns to bring it back by the meticulous work of the Chu State hidden in the Cang State.

This is the case every month, so in the current Chu court, there are not many "Dacang Times", and at most it can only guarantee the supply of a group of top nobles and palaces.

"Do you have no intention of starting a war with the State of Chu?"

Chu Emperor Xiong Min muttered, and then let out a long sigh and sneered disdainfully.

Bad excuses!

This is just a temporary fig leaf for Cangguo, he doesn't believe that Cangguo is thousands of miles away, and will wave the flag and shout for several small countries.

If it was four years ago, when there were still many small countries, if Cangguo had the intention to compete for hegemony, this would be a good means of alliance, which could quickly increase its strength and expand its influence.

But today, when small countries have been almost wiped out, what is the use of a few countries that are surviving?

Any war can destroy it.

To describe it in the fable of Cangguo, this is to cover your ears and steal the bell.

Xiong Minne saw it very clearly, and he believed that the emperors of other countries could also see it.

However, it was precisely like this that made her heart panic.

Why?

After a series of means, almost all countries believe that this is a contradiction between Cangguo and Chu, even if Cangguo wants to go to war, it is against Chu, even if the potential threat of Cangguo is great, there is Chu in front.

As the saying goes, if two tigers fight each other, one will be injured, no matter who wins or loses, it will consume their own strength, and then it will be too late for countries to wait for the opportunity to move.

Not to mention anything else, the battle of the Jin Dynasty has just come to an end for a few years, and the countries now have a kind of mysterious self-confidence, that is, if the Cangguo really has superior strength, then the countries can follow the example of the original alliance to defeat the Jin, just like defeating the Jin State, and also defeat the Cangguo.

"What a rat-eyed guy."

Chu Emperor Xiong Minne sighed, very regretful in his heart, in a sense, the crisis that Chu is facing now is similar to the crisis faced by Cangguo in the past, it has encountered an unprecedented enemy, the difference is that Cangguo has the courage to die and survive, dare to fight, and promote the alliance and form an alliance.

Today's Chu State, although there is not such a serious crisis as the original Cang State, but it is precisely like this, boiled frogs in warm water, so that Chu State does not have the atmosphere of swearing to the death, the whole country from the ministers of the world, down to the common people, have a blind confidence in the Chu State, thinking that the current Chu State is already the largest country in the world, even if the Cang State is strong, after the war, the two sides will be evenly matched at most.

In fact, is that really the case?

Xiong Minne's heart was full of hesitation and uneasiness, Cangguo has been selling weapons and equipment to other countries over the years, although it is only some standing weapons, but as long as you are familiar with the military formation, you know that Cangguo's weapons are at least one era ahead of the countries, as long as it is equipped with a full set of Cangguo weapons, even if it is the second-hand equipment eliminated by the soldiers of Cangguo, it is enough to become a country's ace army.

How terrible is this!

The most core, the most advanced, and the most powerful weapons, Cangguo will definitely not sell to all countries, just these ordinary Cangguo weapons and equipment are so powerful, so how powerful should the Cangguo army be that can be replenished by a steady stream of weapons?

In other words, every army in Cangguo is equivalent to the trump card among the trump cards in the armies of various countries!

On the other hand, the state of Chu, since it began to annex the rest of the small countries, the annual trade of weapons and equipment between the state of Chu and the state of Cang has shrunk a lot, and the quota is even less than that of some small countries.

Two years ago, after the rapid expansion of the Chu State, the Ministry of Commerce and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the State of Cang have been delaying the sale of weapons to the State of Chu on the grounds of shortage of weapons and equipment and too many orders from various countries.

Therefore, the first batch of weapons purchased from Cangguo have been consumed in the wear and tear of the two or three years of successive wars, and the rest also need to be maintained, and even face the fate of elimination.

The combat effectiveness of the Chu army is destined to be lower than that of the Cang army.

These gaps are not only understood by him as an emperor, but also by those ministers of the world, and it is precisely because of this that it gives a good excuse to those families, which means that it is advisable to advise the Chu State to be the enemy of the Cangguo before the equipment is developed, and the Chu State should preserve its strength, and if the Cangguo takes the initiative to attack in the future, it can follow the example of the Cangcheng Alliance to come to the Chu City Alliance and unite the countries to attack the Cangguo together.

Xiong Minne wanted to flip the table.

Can the State of Chu be the same as the original State of Cang?

First of all, it is said that the world environment at that time, the Jin State was too strong, and all countries felt a sense of crisis, and all countries bordering the Jin State were enveloped by a great pressure.

Secondly, at that time, the strength of Cangguo itself was not very strong, and all countries could accept it, but it only played a liaison role.

Then, it was the Great Gift Son at that time, who was in Cangguo, that is to say, most of the influence of the Cangcheng Alliance came from the exiled Great Gift Son of Heaven.

The conditions of all aspects were combined, and this created the Cangcheng Alliance.

But now?

The state of Chu does not have any of these advantages, and if the state of Chu wants to call for an alliance to defeat Cang, the two opponents of the state of Ruan and the state of Yun, it will be thankful that they do not come to make trouble.

Now, all countries are busy watching the big drama of the confrontation between Chu and Cang, where do they have any thoughts, and what alliances do they participate in.

No, just yesterday, he received a reply from Emperor Mangguo, and he was blunt and very unkind about his alliance to attack Cang.

In the original words of the Emperor of Mangguo, it is - His Majesty the Emperor of Chu is probably in the wrong situation, Mang and Cang are friends, the two countries have a very good relationship, Mang is not against Chu is already very good, Hugh wants to mention the alliance against Cang again, don't ruin the diplomatic relations between the two countries.
