Chapter 318: I want to send troops to the Four Kingdoms
On the second day after the inspection, another minister coldly raised the matter of the imperial heir, but this time it was Shangjuan who asked Qianyue to issue a holy decree and draft again.
They thought that since the emperor was fine, they could only start with women.
However, Qian Renxue directly rejected the cantata, and in order to divert attention, she took advantage of the situation to propose a plan to recover the imperial power.
The so-called recovery of imperial power is the merger of the four kingdoms.
At the beginning of the establishment of the two empires, the system of feudal feuds was implemented, a large number of territories were divided into vassals, and there were countless nobles with armed forces.
The Heaven Dou Empire originally had ten provinces, but with the division of the four kingdoms, the empire itself only controlled five provinces.
There are five left, one each of the four kingdoms controls, and one principality, second only to the kingdom, occupying one of the smallest provinces in the eastern part of the empire.
On the surface, the four kingdoms and the one principality were all under the rule of the Heaven Dou Empire, but in fact, these five countries had already become a state within a state, and they were completely autonomous except for the necessary tribute. If it weren't for the Heaven Dou Imperial Family's heavy military control, perhaps civil strife would have already occurred.
Although the Star Luo Empire also had a similar situation, all the emperors there were killed from the blood path, and their abilities were outstanding. Under the rule of the iron fist, the kingdoms in the Star Luo Empire obeyed the royal family and did not dare to disobey the yang and the yin.
The recovery of the four kingdoms and principalities was planned by Qian Lingxue a long time ago, and Bai Yifei also agreed, not to mention that unification was the trend of the times, and he himself was looking for an opportunity to train his subordinates.
Thus, the four decrees were sent to the kings of the four kingdoms and a small principality.
What is written on the holy decree is nothing more than to turn the kingdom and principality back into the provinces of the Heaven Dou Empire, gather Chinese power, and resist the wolf ambitions of the Wuhun Hall and the Star Luo Empire.
But these kingdoms and principalities that are accustomed to being the emperor of the soil are willing to hand over the power in their hands, and they directly and sternly refuse. told the envoy that the territory was divided by the founding emperor of the Heaven Dou Empire, which violated the ancestral system, and actually wanted to use the ancestor to suppress Qianrenxue.
But Qianyue said in her heart, my ancestor is an angel god, and he doesn't eat your set.
Privately, the four kingdoms began to link up, intending to form an alliance to resolutely oppose Qianrenxue's plan to take back power.
Some ministers also wrote against it, believing that the Heaven Dou Empire had just returned its blood in recent years, and rashly launching a war would cause huge losses, giving the Martial Spirit Hall and the Star Luo Empire an opportunity.
In the early morning of this day, Qian Lingxue was sitting on it, with a majestic expression, quite a Ming Jun.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I have received the news that the four kingdoms have secretly colluded to form an alliance, which is already harboring evil intentions. I am determined to send troops to conquer, unify the Heaven Dou Empire, and rebuild the glory! What do you think? β
As soon as they heard this, the ministers below exploded instantly, and they whispered one by one, but no one dared to be the first to speak.
"Chen Gelong, there is a play!"
Among the generals, Marshal Ge Long, who was standing second, walked out, and his loud voice combined with his deep soul power instantly suppressed the noise.
"Oh, what does Marshal Goron have to say?"
Qian Lingxue was still very polite to this most decorated general of the Heaven Dou Empire on the surface.
"Your Majesty, the hearts of the four kingdoms have been revealed, if you don't send troops to fight, how can you raise the power of my Heavenly Dou. Minister, I am willing to share your Majesty's worries! β
Ge Long knelt on one knee and killed decisively between his words.
Bai Yifei, who was standing at the head of the generals, his mind became active, and the corners of his mouth hooked, revealing an evil smile. Secretly Dao Gelong, this old guy, finally couldn't sit still.
At this time, Ge Long, who was bowing his head to the ground, felt a little sour in his heart.
In the past few years, Qian Lingxue has always promoted some generals intentionally or unintentionally to share his power, although he still respects him as before, but his status is inferior to before.
Taking advantage of the fact that his old arms and legs can still move, he wants to take the juniors of his family this time and let them earn military merits, so that they can really have a foothold in the army.
"Prime Minister Zuo, I see that your brows are furrowed, if you have anything to say, you might as well say it directly."
After Ge Long returned to his original position, Qian Lingxue set her sights on Hayes, the prime minister of Zuo.
"Your Majesty, the minister is not opposed to the use of troops. It's just that I'm worried that the Star Luo Empire and the Martial Spirit Hall will get in the way, after all, they don't want to see a unified Heaven Dou Empire appear. β
Hayese voiced his concerns.
"What Prime Minister Zuo said is not unreasonable, but according to Benhou's understanding, the two princes of the Star Luo Empire, Davis and Dai Mubai, are still fighting openly and secretly for the position of crown prince, and the two sides have won and lost each other. Therefore, Ben Hou concluded that the Star Luo Empire had no intention of interfering in foreign affairs during this time, and if it waited for any of them to free up their hands after victory, it would be a great opportunity to delay. β
"As for the Martial Spirit Palace, if they make a move, there will naturally be Ben Hou to follow."
Bai Yifei said lightly.
Hayes swept around and found that all the generals looked eager to try, and his old friend and opponent, Murong Yunlei, was also silent, and Hayes didn't want to say anything to spoil the fun, so he walked back with interest.
"Okay, then I will order the bloody clothes to wait for Bai Yifei, Marshal Ge Long, and General Qin Jianfei are fully responsible for this conquest, and the affairs of the three armies will be negotiated by the three of you. After reporting to me, let's go! β
"Obey the order!"
After getting off the court, Murong Yunlei found Bai Yifei for the first time.
"Master Hou seems to be in a good mood today, and people are happy events!"
"It's very nice. However, the prime minister's face is ruddy, and he is also old and strong. β
Bai Yifei laughed lightly, everything has been going well recently, and he is also willing to sell Murong Yunlei a smile.
"Where is it, it can't compare to the Hou Ye, this conquest of the Four Kingdoms must be another military achievement."
Murong Yunlei's words were a little sour.
Compared with the qualifications of civilian officials, military attachΓ©s earning military merits is the fastest way to be promoted.
As for the risks or something, those are the soldiers underneath. A marshal like Ge Long, as long as he is willing, can casually arrange the positions of grain and grass officer and supervisor to the children of the family, not to mention the least danger, and he can also make military merits, which is also the reason for Ge Long's main battle.
It's a pity that there is no one in his Murong family's army.
After a pause, Murong Yunlei looked at no one around him, and whispered, "What does Master Hou think of His Majesty's eagerness to use troops in the Four Kingdoms?" β
"What do you mean by that?" Bai Yifei asked.
"The major affairs of the country are in worship and worship. In my opinion, our emperor wants to establish prestige, so he sent the three of you together. β
Murong Yunlei said cautiously.
"Perhaps!" Bai Yi said ambiguously. "Ben Hou remembers that the three sons of the prime minister's family have also reached the age of official careers, so it is better to come to Ben Hou's account this time and record a military exploit."
"Hey, thank you Master Hou, then the lower official will let this unsuccessful son go to see you when the time comes!"
Murong Yunlei didn't expect things to go so smoothly, and he was busy thanking him.
Bai Yifei waved his hand, "No need to thank Benhou, your daughter will do her best to serve Benhou, she should be." β
After speaking, Bai Yifei left here quickly.
