Chapter 15 No way, in a hurry!
After recovering Lu Kang and the entire Lu family, the next situation will be much easier.
Between Cheng Hao, Zhuge Liang and Lu Kang, the four major families of Lu, Zhu, Zhang, and Gu in the Jiangdong region successively chose to be loyal to Cheng Hao.
As for some of the other larger families, they have always been the leaders of the four major families, and seeing that the four major families have all taken refuge in Cheng Hao, they naturally dare not object, and offer generous gifts one by one to express their allegiance.
At this point, even if Liu Xuan, the assassin of Yangzhou, is still a little unwilling in his heart, but he is helpless, the four major families have taken refuge in Cheng Hao, and his rights are directly elevated, and in desperation, he has to write to Cheng Hao to express his loyalty.
Cheng Hao did not embarrass him for Liu Xuan's performance, and still let him continue to serve as the assassin of Yangzhou, although it is only a nominal assassin history, but at least the various treatments have not been reduced in the slightest.
......
Time passed little by little, after a year of integration and conquest, Cheng Hao exterminated all the disobedient forces in the Jiangdong region, so far, there is only one voice left in the entire Jiangdong region, that is, Cheng Hao's voice.
Today's Cheng Hao can be regarded as a rich group of talents, including Zhuge Liang, Zhou Yu, Lu Kang, Lu Su, Gu Yong and others, and military generals include Huang Zhong, Sun Ce, Wei Yan, Gan Ning, Tai Shici, Huang Gai, Zhou Tai and others.
Especially Huang Zhong, now he is in the prime of life, and after Cheng Hao unified Jiangdong, he broke through the barrier between the red general and the golden general, reached the early stage of the golden general, and became the number one fierce general under Cheng Hao, which really made Cheng Hao feel like he had picked up a treasure.
For Cheng Hao, Huang Zhong can be said to be loyal, he has been in the Jiangdong region for many years, but he has always been nameless and not valued by his superiors, and now under Cheng Hao, he is a fish leaping into the dragon gate, promoted several levels, and was named the general of Zhengdong, which has made great contributions to pacifying the entire Jiangdong.
On this day, it was the tenth day after the early spring year, Cheng Hao sat in the study of the palace of King Hongnong in Moling City, eating the snacks handed by Tang Yueyao from time to time, while reclining on the bench, reading the information in his mind.
"The host occupies the Jiangdong region, and there are more than five generals under his command, and as soon as the main quest is completed, the task reward has been distributed to the inner heaven and earth. ”
"Main quest two opens: please host the throne and become emperor within a year, and subdue at least one golden general and one sage realm minister!"
After digesting the information in his mind, Cheng Hao couldn't help but scratch his head, it is not difficult to ascend the throne as the emperor within a year, as for a golden general, he has already met the conditions, but in the end, it is a little difficult to subdue a sage realm minister.
Nowadays, in the whole world, there are at most a few half-step sages of Wenchen, and I have not heard of the birth of a sage in the world, maybe there is a slight possibility of Poison Shi Jia Xu, but in Cheng Hao's opinion, the possibility is not too big.
"Since you can't recruit others, you can only cultivate yourself. Cheng Hao sighed, his heart was also full of uncertainty, "The most promising ones now are Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu of the half-step Sage Realm. ”
"Zhuge Liang wants to step into the realm of sages, he needs to be in a high position and deal with national affairs, but how long it will take to step into that realm, no one can say!"
"As for Zhou Yu, although he is a Wenchen and cultivates Wenqi, but the main direction of attack is to lead the army, every time he wins a battle, his strength can be improved, as for how many battles he needs to win to break through, only God knows!"
Cheng Hao was a little helpless, he was most annoyed by this kind of uncertainty, this kind of task was about to be completed, but he could fail at any time, which made him very unhappy.
"No matter what, it's time to ascend the throne and become the emperor, otherwise if it drags on, the possibility of these two advancing will be even lower!"
Zhuge Liang needs to serve as prime minister as soon as possible to deal with national affairs, and Zhou Yu also needs to lead the army to conquer the Quartet as soon as possible, all of which require a premise, that is, Cheng Hao is the emperor and occupies the righteousness, otherwise whether it is dealing with national affairs or conquering disobedient people, it is a bit unjustifiable!
"Yueyao, our queen mother is too leisurely now, you go for me and help me do something!" As he spoke, Cheng Hao got up and whispered a few words in Yueyao's ear, and then Tang Yueyao turned her head and left with a serious face.
As early as half a year ago, Cheng Hao took the Empress Dowager He from Nanyang He's house, and now, it's time to use her!
......
In the early morning of the next day, in the palace of King Hongnong in the center of Moling City, Zhuge Liang, Zhou Yu and other civil and military generals stood in two columns on the left and right, quietly waiting for Cheng Hao to go to court.
"Lord Zhou, I don't know if you were summoned by the Queen Mother yesterday?" Zhuge Liang asked in a low voice to Zhou Yu beside him.
"I've seen it, presumably Lord Zhuge was also summoned by the Queen Mother, right?" Zhou Yu, who looked to be less than twenty years old, was already in a high position at this time, and his position was only under Zhuge Liang and Lu Kang, and he was a celebrity next to King Hongnong.
Zhuge Liang nodded, and then glanced at Lu Kang, Huang Zhong, Wei Yan and others, with a hint of a smile on the corner of his mouth, "Presumably you have already met the Queen Mother, I don't know what you mean by the Queen Mother?"
"What else can you say about this, Your Highness was originally the Son of Heaven, and now he has swept Jiangdong in less than a year, with tens of millions of soldiers, and his subordinates are like clouds, and he should have ascended the throne and called the emperor!"
"That's right, with His Highness's true dragon qualifications, how can he always be a king, now that everything is ready, it's time to ascend the throne!" Gan Ning was also full of smiles, His Royal Highness ascended the throne, and these people, their official positions can be mentioned again!
"The Son of Heaven set up by Dong Thief is contrary to the Han Code, and it is time to support His Royal Highness King Hongnong to re-ascend the throne and take the title of Emperor Zheng. Lu Kang also spoke up.
"So, everyone, when the court meeting begins, let's support His Highness to ascend the throne together, okay?" Zhuge Liang finally glanced at the court and asked.
"That's how it should be!"
"Lord Zhuge is very good, His Royal Highness should ascend the throne and become the emperor!"
......
In the whispers of a group of civil and military ministers, Cheng Hao, followed by Zhong Dahong, slowly walked to the dragon chair.
This Hongnong Palace, before the first construction, was built according to the appearance of the Luoyang City Palace, from the very beginning of the construction of the palace, everyone has already understood in their hearts that His Royal Highness Hongnong King ascended the throne, and it was only a matter of time sooner or later.
"Ladies and gentlemen, is there something important to start today?" Cheng Hao's meaning is already obvious, that is, let the ministers hurry up and support him to ascend the throne.
There is no way, Cheng Hao is in a hurry, the completion time of the main task two is only one year, and if he delays for one more day, the mission may fail, for this reason, he can only ignore the power of the Son of Heaven, his eyes continue to sweep over Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu, and signal the two of them to come forward and persuade them to enter!
"Your Highness, the minister has something to play!"
Zhou Geliang naturally understood what Cheng Hao meant, and came out of the crowd at the moment, talking about the past and the present, and talked about a bunch of big truths, and finally, when Cheng Hao was a little impatient, he slowly bowed and saluted.
"Your Highness, tomorrow is the grand ceremony of the birth of our human race, and please ask Your Highness to ascend the throne tomorrow for the sake of all the people in the world!"
"Please also ask Your Highness to ascend the throne tomorrow for the sake of all the people in the world!" The ministers echoed the moment Zhuge Liang's words fell, and the sound was like thousands of thunder sounds exploding at the same time, spreading throughout the city.
"Your Majesty, please ascend the throne tomorrow!" This time, it was no longer the ministers who echoed, but tens of millions of people in the city and millions of royal forest soldiers, kneeling and kowtowing at the same time, asking Cheng Hao to ascend the throne!
Cheng Hao was very satisfied with everyone's attitude, and after three rejections and three invitations, Cheng Hao looked reluctant and agreed to ascend the throne tomorrow!
