Chapter 696: The Partition of the Western Rain Domain
For the establishment of Cuiyun City, the imperial court has no time to pay attention, because in this troubled era, all forces are rising, and Cuiyun City, as a place of displaced people, is also a good thing that someone manages it.
The West Rain Country is already chaotic enough, the war in front is still going on, and if there is more chaos in the rear, it will be even more uncontrollable.
Therefore, the establishment of Cuiyun City is a good thing for the court of Xiyu Kingdom, it can be regarded as helping them solve a big hidden danger, and it is said that they should also give great help, but it is a pity that the country has no emperor, and no one cares about it.
On the day Mu Qianmei came back, it was officially announced that the City Lord's Mansion of Cuiyun City was established, and Mu Qianmei served as the first city lord of Cuiyun City.
The new City Lord's Mansion was established, and Mu Qianmei officially appointed a large number of civilian and military generals, removing the two words temporary in many people's previous positions.
Since the previous appointments were all appointed by Zhou Yunxi, they could only be regarded as temporary, but now that the City Lord's Mansion has been officially established, it can naturally be officially appointed.
For those people appointed by Zhou Yunxi before, Mu Qianmei almost did not change, but only made a few adjustments and added some new appointments.
On the day of its establishment, Mu Qianmei made some modifications and additions to the rules and regulations drafted by Zhou Yunxi, and then officially released them.
Three days later, Emperor Wu Changhao's coffin was successfully transported to Yulan City, and a grand funeral ceremony was held, which was handled in full accordance with the specifications of Emperor Zun, Mu Qianmei also led the important people of Cuiyun City to attend the funeral, and Zhou Yunxi, as the emperor, naturally also went.
He is the emperor's teacher, and he can be regarded as Wu Changhao's elder, the so-called one day as a teacher and a lifelong father, Wu Changhao is the child that Zhou Yunxi watched grow up, and now that the emperor has been assassinated, he feels sadder than everyone else.
The white-haired person is already sad enough to send the black-haired person, not to mention that he was stabbed to death, how can he not make Zhou Yunxi sad?
However, although the funeral was done, Wu Changhao was not buried, because the imperial tomb of Xiyu Country was located in Yong'an City, according to the rules, all emperors must be buried in the imperial tomb, not to mention Wu Changhao, the remains of the old emperor Wu Shengjie are still placed in the cold secret room of the palace.
Wu Changhao's coffin and Wu Shengjie's coffin were parked together, waiting for the time to return to Yong'an City, so that they could truly enter the earth.
Before the funeral, everyone was still relatively restrained, and there was no big action, and many forces also sent people to Yulan City to mourn, and by the way, they inquired about the movements of the imperial court and the situation of all parties.
In just one month, more than 30 local feudal towns emerged, with large feudal towns having more than a dozen cities, ordinary feudal towns having seven or eight castles, and the smallest even having only one castle became a feudal town of its own.
Although the division of feudal towns has sprung up, but no feudal town king dares to risk the world's disapproval to declare the emperor, and each feudal town is declared to be established, all under the banner of avenging the emperor, and trying to make his power justified.
Therefore, in private, a rumor began to circulate that whoever can avenge the emperor of all the feudal forces is the new emperor of Xiyu Kingdom.
Anyone with a heart can see that this is not groundless, this is a signal deliberately sent by someone, because everyone wants to hear this signal, so this rumor quickly became a default criterion for everyone, whether or not to avenge the emperor, at least there is a reasonable reason for existence.
In this month, Mu Qianmei devoted herself to the construction of Cuiyun City, and with the real backbone and leader, Cuiyun City has grown by leaps and bounds.
Of course, the construction of the city was only Mu Qianmei's superficial work, when the situation of the division of feudal towns was developing rapidly, Mu Qianmei knew that now was the time when the Xiyu Kingdom was really in danger.
If you want to really save Xiyu Country, you must have your own power, Mu Qianmei is not the king, she is just the lord of a city, although there is no appointment from the imperial court, but this city has grown from scratch, and then expanded rapidly step by step, she has run it step by step.
Due to the formation of the forces of the feudal towns, the number of displaced people has become much smaller, because many forces are recruiting a large number of troops, and the young and strong people have a home, and their families naturally have a home.
For a feudal town, in addition to the need for an army, it naturally needs ordinary people, and everyone is competing to take in the displaced people.
Unlike before, when things were not about oneself, now the homeless people have become the sweets of various tribes.
However, Mu Qianmei's newly built Cuiyun City has natural advantages, firstly, she won the championship in the competition of the Outer Heaven Lingyun List and became a hero in the minds of many teenagers, and secondly, the reason why Cuiyun City was created was to take in the displaced people, so many of those who fled will naturally choose to come to Cuiyun City.
In just one month, Cuiyun City has increased from 10,000 people to 30 million people, in peacetime, this is already a super city, but at this time, it can only be regarded as a medium-sized city, not to mention anything else, it is the nearest Yulan City, with a population of more than 100 million.
The population of 100 million is beyond the capacity of Yulan City, so Liang Xinghe has long begun to control and no longer continue to let displaced people enter the city, which is also one of the reasons why the population of Cuiyun City can still grow rapidly.
On this morning, according to the usual practice, Mu Qianmei, Liu Tingfeng, Zhou Yunxi and the heads of each branch hall all gathered together for a one-day meeting to discuss various affairs.
After everyone sat down, Mu Qianmei sat on the main seat and said slowly:
"In the past month, the situation in Xiyu has become more complicated and confusing, although the emperor died unexpectedly, but the imperial court has not collapsed for the time being under the auspices of the prime minister, and because the army has fought back with hatred, it has caused a certain amount of pressure on Wu Changkong."
"However, as time goes by, Wu Changkong's advantages will become more and more obvious, no matter what, he is the purest royal bloodline of Xiyu Country after all, and he is the most qualified person to inherit the throne, if there are no other variables, he will still become the real emperor of Xiyu Country in the end."
Bai Xiaolong shook his head and said:
"Even if he can inherit the throne of the emperor, it is just a puppet, firstly, he used the assassins of the demon realm, secondly, he also accepted the assistance of the other four countries, and presumably also accepted a lot of unequal treaties, such an emperor, for the Xiyu country, it is a greater disaster."
Zhou Yunxi said in a sad tone:
"Yes, what can an emperor who is subject to others bring to the people? Most of the annual financial income will be contributed, what conditions does he have for the benefit of the people? ”
白芊芊 also interfaced:
"According to the information we have gathered, now the West Rain Country has been divided into four regions by the other four countries, on the surface, it is to assist the West Rain Country and rescue the West Rain Country, but in fact, it is plundering everywhere, according to this situation, the West Rain Country will soon cease to exist."
Mu Qianmei has experienced the process of the unification of the Yugu Continent from seven countries to one country, and naturally understands the truth, for an emperor, the national interests are above all else, and the current Xiyu Country is a big fat meat, they don't need to start a war, they only need to move their mouths at the negotiation table, and they can quickly decide the fate of the Xiyu Kingdom.
The Tiger King said with a big grin:
"Instead of letting these people make Xiyu Country into a miasma, it is better to have the landlord in charge of this country!"
Mu Qianmei immediately said:
"Don't talk nonsense, we hear that Xuelou is still just a weak gang, and our Cuiyun City is just a lonely city, if such words spread, we will soon become the target of public criticism, and what awaits us is the end of destruction."
After listening to Mu Qianmei's words, no one else spoke again, and after a while, Mu Qianmei continued:
"In the future, I won't have the energy to take care of the matter of Xuelou, Xiaobai will spend more time to continue to quickly discover and cultivate talents, our foundation is too weak, let alone save Xiyu Country now, even the strength of self-protection is still insufficient, if you want to enhance your strength, Chuangongtang is very important."
"And for a gang, the bigger the development, the higher the requirements for discipline, and Bing Lan has done a good job these days and hopes to continue to strengthen."
"Qianqian's Vermilion Bird Hall is now the fastest growing intelligence network in Tianwaitian, but due to the complex and changeable situation in Xiyu Country, our timeliness is still insufficient, if there is a war, obtaining timely and effective information is often the key to victory, so we still have to further improve the speed of development."
"Wang Hu's God of War Hall is performing very well, and it is more than enough to control Cuiyun City now, but it will meet more cruel tests in the future, I hope you don't slack off."
"Jubaotang and Chunfeng Hall have done a good job in Tingxue Building, but we also need to invest more energy in Cuiyun City to develop and grow, because in the future, we will face more than just a city, and in the future, we must broaden our horizons."
"Tingxue Lou is the foundation of the development of Cuiyun City, we need to develop as soon as possible, however, we can't just focus on the increase in the number of people, more importantly, we want to improve as soon as possible, but it is by no means the advantage of numbers, more important is the overall strength."
At this moment, the Tiger King said expectantly:
"Miss, I want to join the City Lord's Mansion in Cuiyun City, because to improve combat effectiveness, actual combat is the key."
After Mu Qianmei pondered for a moment, she shook her head and replied:
"Actual combat is indeed the best way to improve your strength, but as an autonomous, you don't need to do everything yourself, and when there is a war, as a coach, you can't charge into the front every time you fight, because you need to control the overall situation."
