Chapter 124: Next Year's Big Wedding?
"Move the capital?" Ning Fengzhi frowned, "The matter of moving the capital ......"
He thought for a moment, he was a smart person, and naturally thought of Lu Yuan's intention to move the capital.
"Xiao Yuan, are you worried that there is still a Heaven Dou Emperor in this imperial capital...... Is there a remnant of the previous dynasty? Ning Fengzhi sighed and asked.
"Not just for that reason, but for Dad...... Do you think I really care about these remnants of the past? Lu Yuan shook his head and said with a blazing gaze.
Ning Fengzhi and Bone Douluo were a little surprised when they heard this.
Lu Yuan continued, "The Xue family itself doesn't have much power anymore, and it can be said that after the Snow Night and the Avalanche Two Emperors, the loyal ministers and good generals of the Heaven Dou Empire have been almost centrifugal. ”
He didn't have much scruples about the Heaven Dou Empire's royal family.
Although he did not take the throne very rightly, he did not care about the crime of killing the king and seizing the throne.
And after Lu Yuan seized the throne, he repeatedly issued edicts, declaring that he was forced to be helpless.
At the same time, he also issued an edict, stating that the Celestial Shadow Empire will be used in the future by loyal and virtuous people.
The empire governs the country with loyal, righteous and virtuous people, which may sound a bit mocking, but Lu Yuan, a usurping thief, actually said that he would govern the country with "loyalty".
It's kind of funny how it sounds.
Shouldn't it be "the Fuwei Empire governs the country with filial piety"?
However, what Lu Yuan said was not just "loyalty", but the words "loyalty, righteousness and wisdom", and this "loyalty" was not foolish loyalty.
Foolish and loyal people, in the face of the king's ruthless and unrighteous harm to themselves and their own family, must insist on foolish loyalty, knowing that they are a faint king, but still loyal to them, can such a person be worthy of the virtuous two?
Moreover, in the general righteousness of the country and the people, the foolish and loyal people are even more untenable.
Therefore, what Lu Yuan's edict said was, "If the emperor is mediocre, then as a courtier, for the sake of the empire, for the people of the empire, and for his own sake, if the three conditions are met, then the emperor is also reasonable, and he is a wise minister, on the contrary, he is a sycophant minister." ”
This can be regarded as his own endorsement of his rebellion, but what he said is also very reasonable.
There is another sentence at the end of Lu Yuan's edict, "If I do the same in the future, please ask the loyal ministers and sages of the empire to rise up and fight against the faint monarch with all the rebels!" ”
How could such words not touch the people of the Celestial Shadow Empire?
In addition, Lu Yuan was indeed not a "deliberate" rebellion, but an avalanche that forced people too much, before this, who didn't think that Lu Yuan was a loyal minister and a great hero of the Heaven Dou Empire.
In the eyes of outsiders, Lu Yuan was such a hero and loyal minister before.
He faced the tide of soul beasts and beasts twice, fought to the death, and fought hard to fight the main battle, protecting Heaven Dou City and the thousands of people in the city.
went to Zhennanguan and rode the Savior alone; In the end, he led the army of the Heaven Dou Empire, and turned the previous defeat of the Heaven Dou Empire against the Star Luo Empire, killing the Star Luo Empire in an unprecedented rout.
After returning to Heaven Dou City in triumph, he was even more rescued by the emperor and saved the life of the Snow Night Emperor.
In the face of the prince "Xue Qinghe", who was about to be disguised by the Martial Spirit Palace, the Emperor of the Snowy Night was rescued again.
This last rescue, piercing the conspiracy of the Wuhun Palace, gave Avalanche, who had become a prisoner under the stairs, a chance to ascend to the throne.
It can be said that Lu Yuan can obviously let the Snow Night Emperor die, and he can also take this opportunity to directly rebel and kill Snow Night and Avalanche after repelling the Martial Spirit Palace, so that Avalanche has no chance to ascend to the throne.
But he never did, he never took the initiative even on the day Avalanche ascended the throne.
It's not that Avalanche itself is too arrogant, on the day of his accession to the throne. wanted to forcibly marry Lu Yuan's sister, but in the end he didn't get consent, and he even exiled Lu Yuan to the frontier of the empire.
He may not rebel in the end and kill the Heaven Dou Empire such as Avalanche.
Of course, this is what outsiders think of Lu Yuan's experiences, including Ning Fengzhi.
Only the two siblings, Lu Yuan and Lu Qingqing, understood that these experiences were their long-planned actions.
The goal is to connive at the avalanche's arrogance, and at the same time, let him regard Lu Yuan as a thorn in the flesh after ascending to the throne, and he can't wait to pull it out on the spot.
Of course, Lu Yuan didn't expect that Avalanche would have the support of Haotian Sect's powerhouse, so he dared to attack him on the spot so boldly.
But this is also in line with his wishes, and the rebellion is more in line with the righteousness.
It was precisely because of this that the subjects of the Heaven Dou Empire were originally very sympathetic to Lu Yuan, and they were not very opposed to Lu Yuan's change of dynasty.
This is the effect of exalting righteousness.
It is only the Star Luo Empire and the Martial Spirit Palace, which are hostile to Lu Yuan and the Seven Treasure Glazed Glass Sect, that will criticize Lu Yuan's behavior and try their best to discredit him.
However, if anyone who knew a little bit about the ins and outs of this, even if the Star Luo Empire and the Martial Spirit Hall tried their best to discredit Lu Yuan, they should know that Lu Yuan's rebellion was very reasonable.
The knives are all on the neck, and it would be too stupid not to rebel.
Therefore, Lu Yuan also understood this truth, so he would not take care of the Xue family, the remnants of the previous dynasty of the Heaven Dou Empire, and the useless things such as rebellious ministers and thieves.
He also understood that under the unfair treatment of him by the snow night and the avalanche, there would not be many foolish and loyal people in the original Heaven Dou Empire who thought that what Lu Yuan did was wrong.
Coupled with absolute strength, they have no idea of going against Lu Yuan.
But there may still be only a few left......
"The only ones left are those who are pedantic and stupid and are not the vested interests of my Celestial Shadow Empire today, only these people are still loyal to the only remaining Emperor of the Snow Family, how many storms can they stir up." Lu Yuan said calmly.
He also knew that Xuexing's young son was taken away by Hao Tianzong and others, but so what?
He, Lu Yuan, is sitting upright, would he be afraid of the youngest son of a prince of the previous dynasty?
Giving death to Xuexing's entire family is just to avoid trouble, and it would be too merciful to plot the dynasty and usurp the throne without killing the royal family of the previous dynasty who had grievances with him.
Too merciful...... For an emperor, it's not a compliment.
"Then Xiao Yuan, you want to move here to ......," Ning Fengzhi asked curiously.
Lu Yuan said at this time, "I think it...... Liuli City is too far away, although the geographical location is safe, but it is precisely because it is too safe, so the imperial capital and the empire have no sense of crisis, let alone the spirit of forging ahead. ”
Ning Fengzhi frowned, "The imperial capital is the head of a country, of course you have to be safe, otherwise once the imperial capital falls, the empire will be doomed......"
"But in a safe corner, is it useful to linger?" Lu Yuan said lightly.
When Ning Fengzhi and Bone Douluo heard this, they were both stunned
"I don't want my empire, and even my descendants, to become as cowardly and incompetent as the Heaven Dou Imperial Family...... Not even the ability to hold the empire. Lu Yuan said at this time, "Such a descendant, such an empire, it is also a good thing that it is destroyed." ”
"But I hope that they will forge ahead, even after I unify the Douluo Continent, I still want to expand the territory, conquer the sea, and even conquer another unknown continent." Lu Yuan said excitedly.
His words were full of rhetoric, unifying the Douluo Continent, he was not satisfied, he still had to conquer the sea, conquer the unknown continent overseas.
"Therefore, the emperor must be relocated." Lu Yuan continued, "And I want to move the imperial capital to ...... Heavenly Shadow City, only two hundred miles away from Jialing Pass, can just guard against the attack of the three major kingdoms and the Martial Spirit Hall in the future. ”
"This is not appropriate...... Ning Fengzhi said although he was a little moved, "The scale of Heavenly Shadow City is too small, and it is too close to the front line, and the slightest war will affect the imperial capital. ”
Lu Yuan shook his head and said, "This is exactly what I want, even if there is a war, I can go to the battlefield as soon as possible." ”
He even said those blood-warming words in Ning Fengzhi and Bone Douluo, "Isn't this what you should do as the supreme of a country and the imperial family of the empire?" The emperor guards the country, and the king dies! ”
Ning Fengzhi and Bone Douluo were immediately shocked, and they couldn't help but be touched by Lu Yuan.
"The emperor guards the country, and the king dies...... The emperor guards the country, and the king dies! Ning Fengzhi muttered this sentence, and his eyes became clearer and clearer.
"Yes, Xiao Yuan, you are indeed a natural emperor!" His eyes lifted, he looked at Lu Yuan and said, "I have unparalleled heroism and ambition, this is ...... There are few people in the world who can compare to you! ”
"Then Dad, you should have agreed, right?" Lu Yuan said with a smile.
"If you have such great ambition and heroism, how can I, a small and clever man in a remote corner, object to it?" Ning Fengzhi smiled dumbly and said, "And you are His Majesty the Emperor of the Empire, everything is up to you, what's wrong?" ”
Lu Yuan nodded, "Since that's the case, then I'll send an edict announcing this matter...... Moreover, in fact, I am not in a hurry to move the capital. ”
"Dad, you're right, the scale of Sky Shadow City is too small, as the capital of a country, it is far inferior to Liuli City." He said, "What I plan is that after announcing this matter, I will order the skilled craftsmen and the army to build the Celestial Shadow City at the same time. ”
"This period of time also coincides with the expansion of the army, and the number of my Celestial Shadow Army was not much before, although the original Royal Knights were incorporated into the Celestial Shadow Army, but the number is still not much."
"I intend to double the number of Celestial Shadow soldiers to 200,000 troops, and train them to become the best soldiers of the Royal Order."
"This can also be regarded as training for them during the expansion of the army, and the expansion of the city and the training of the troops go hand in hand."
When Ning Fengzhi heard this, his eyes lit up, "Xiao Yuan...... It seems that you have already thought about these things, and I am very relieved that all your actions are quite orderly and unpretentious. ”
Lu Yuan smiled dumbly, "As a monarch, you must think twice before acting, although I will also be rash, but I will try to restrain myself." ”
"Actually, I still have a lot of ideas, but for the sake of the stability of the empire, it is better not to be too radical and rush to change all this...... Follow-up step by step. ”
Ning Fengzhi suddenly showed a satisfied smile and nodded.
It is a good thing for His Majesty the Emperor to forge ahead, but it is not good for the governance of the country to be too enterprising and high-spirited.
Sometimes, the emperor is too anxious, which is equivalent to a fierce medicine for the disease.
Some empires with more serious illnesses may not be able to do it on the spot when they encounter this dose of fierce medicine, and they will directly enter the crooked neck tree link.
And the empire that is not so sick may have a small lesion and a big illness with a dose of fierce medicine, especially the change of the law, the slightest mistake in this thing will destroy the stability of the empire.
It's not that the change is bad, it's just that the change should be done slowly and not in a hurry.
Lu Yuan, as a traverser, understands this very well.
Ning Fengzhi was also very pleased that Lu Yuan was so reliable, so reliable that he felt at ease.
It's just that......
But at this time, he chuckled again, and suddenly said with a straight face, "But Xiao Yuan, although you have to take your time to govern the country, and you said that you still have a lot of ideas, I don't know...... Do you know that there is a huge crisis in the empire that is imminent......"
Lu Yuan was stunned for a moment, he frowned, and asked, "Imminent crisis...... The Martial Spirit Hall and the Star Luo Empire should not have started so quickly, could it be that there is something wrong with the empire's finances? ”
Ning Fengzhi shook his head and said with a smile, "I just ordered someone to take out three million gold soul coins from the sect last month to fill the treasury, so there is no problem with the imperial finances at all. ”
"Not only is there no problem, but there is also a surplus, I believe that you will move the capital to the Sky Shadow City next, and the planned cost of the expansion of the Sky Shadow City will only cost 700,000 gold soul coins."
This is the benefit of the Seven Treasure Liuli Sect and the royal family as a family, at least in terms of finances, Lu Yuan doesn't have to worry about it at the moment.
However, he has actually thought of some business and can fill the treasury, otherwise it would not be a matter to let his father-in-law pay for help.
Lu Yuan pondered for a moment and said, "Could it be that there is a disaster or a miracle in the empire?" Someone is using this to spread rumors that I am not in the right position to provoke visions? ”
Ning Fengzhi smiled dumbly, "No, in the past few months, the empire has been calm and calm, and there have been no disasters, but there have been a lot of 'auspicious rui'." ”
Lu Yuan smiled helplessly, he knew very well that this "auspicious rui" was probably made by the people below who wanted to pat him on the back.
However, in the face of the crisis in Ning Fengzhi's mouth, he really couldn't think of it, and he didn't plan to guess.
He asked directly, "Dad, just tell me directly, we are a family, what can't we say." ”
Ning Fengzhi's originally elegant and dignified handsome face showed a rare sly smile, "Your Majesty, there is no prince of the empire today...... Even the wedding ceremony between you and the queen has not yet been completed, and there is no heir to this empire, and many subjects are afraid that their hearts will be uneasy......"
Lu Yuan was momentarily stunned, "Huh? Yes? …… Ah, this ......."
Didn't he hear the meaning of Ning Fengzhi's words, didn't Ning Fengzhi make it clear that he was urging marriage?
urge him and Ning Rongrong to get married as soon as possible and give birth to a prince!
For this reason, Ning Fengzhi also specially called him "Your Majesty", which was to urge him and Ning Rongrong to marry and have children.
Bone Douluo, who was originally silent on the side, also had a bright eye at this time, and said with a straight face, "Yes...... Imperial...... The empire does not have a single son of yours...... Eh, prince, everyone is not at ease. And one prince is not enough, if you want me to see, it is better to have ten or eight, so that the empire can be stable"
Lu Yuan suddenly stammered a little, "Huh...... Within this year, Rong Rong and I will probably still have to go through the cultivation of the Seagod's Light, and it may be ...... In a hurry, or ...... Next year? ”
"Good! Wait a minute, let's go and prepare for the wedding of Your Majesty and the Queen next year! Ning Fengzhi said neatly at this time.
He directly gave Lu Yuan, who was originally just asking and possibly, a nail was finalized there.
"Huh?" Lu Yuan's eyes widened.
A transition? I just entered the new company to work, and I've choked enough recently, so I've been a little more watery in the past two days, and then tomorrow should be a lot more stable, and then try the 10,000-word update to speed up the progress.
