Chapter 220: The new country should be decided, and Wang Mang will be the emperor
The land of Yuzhou is a busy scene in full swing.
During this period, you can even see soldiers dressed in national military uniforms such as Dayong and Daqi running around, helping to transport various materials, digging rivers, and cleaning up silt.
It was absolutely unimaginable before, but it really happened.
The culprit of all this is trying to make up for the aftermath of this disaster.
Even if it's not easy, it has to be done.
The war in the strict sense of the word is over, and the change of identity has not even made many people get used to it.
Some of the people who had just been brought here saw the soldiers of other countries, and they couldn't help but look for something to make a hole in their headsβin order to solve this matter, Wang Mang even had to send some people around to explain.
The Four-Nation Coalition has surrendered.
Yes, surrender!
Most of the soldiers who were originally used for combat were withdrawn, and the rest of the people had to help control the source river that broke the embankment, which can be compared to forced labor.
And Shikoku's compensation for Otsuki is also being shipped one after another.
The war, which was originally in full swing, came to an abrupt end after the source river burst its embankment.
The emperors of the four kingdoms have sinned against themselves, nominally being educated by Moqiu, and have seen the glory of the saint - no matter how bullshitty this reason is, there will always be people who will believe it, anyway, to give an explanation to the people.
Moreover, after the defeat, the people of all countries did get benefits, even if this benefit was taken from their own treasury, and the wool came out of the sheep, but it was better than the wool being taken and trampled on.
On the whole, Da Yue has been replenished with sufficient materials at this time, and all kinds of people have also received tangible benefits, and everyone has earned, so who loses?
Maybe it's time to ask the grandmasters who have moved up and the emperors who are about to dismount and abdicate to make way for the virtuous to hurry up and raise the butcher's knives in their hands to aim at the family
Wang Mang is very busy.
No, he was busy before, but now he's even busier.
Gu Dan handed over the affairs of Yuzhou to him, and he had to do it well.
Fortunately, the body of the cultivator of the Great Martial Arts is still struggling to support him, and he will not fall down exhausted after ten days and half a month of hard work like ordinary people.
Unfortunately, even if the body of a martial artist is dirty, he can't withstand being so troubled by him.
In the midst of countless choices and fatigue, Wang Mang still fell down and needed to recuperate.
"Wang Lang, it's time to drink medicine."
The former White Lotus Holy Maiden, Xu Wanrong walked into the room with the soup, and Wang Mang on the bed was pale, which was a sign of overthinking.
The squeezing of spirit and qi and blood will have a backlash, and ordinary people also have the opportunity to bless their hearts and explode with extraordinary power in an instant, but the price is life.
A martial artist who has achieved cultivation can control his ability to a certain extent, but there is also a limit, and this price needs to be repaid.
"I've been resting for half a day, and I'm fine."
Wang Mang wanted to sit up while holding on to the bed, but before he could move, he was pressed down by Xu Wanrong.
First, Xu Wanrong is also a martial artist who practices dirty and successful, and secondly, she is pregnant, and Wang Mang does not dare to compete with her.
Well, it must be so.
"Although it is a matter of priority, you will never be able to do this. I'm going to burn my body to death, so lie down for me and rest well, at least for a day. β
Xu Wanrong said undoubtedly.
Now, two months have passed since the source river burst, and the situation is much better than the original chaos, what should have been done is almost done, and the rest is by no means something that can be completed overnight.
Continuing to oppress one's own potential has no benefit other than hurting one's body.
"It's not that I don't want to rest, you know what's going on outside. Brother Gu told me to watch, even if I was allowed to lie outside and watch, how could I stay in the house by myself? β
Wang Mang said a little anxiously.
One thing that has to be mentioned is that no one was prepared for the bursting of the source river, or even the surrender of the four-nation coalition forces, including what needs to be done after that, two months ago!
When things were pressed down in a hurry, they didn't even have a really effective team.
There are indeed many warriors in the Mo family, but it's okay to let them fight for their lives, if you really want to talk about the talent of governing the country, even if you have to see your opinions.
It's not that they can't, but they need to take over the affairs of a country step by step.
And the loss of the Mo family is not small, there were originally more than a thousand ink masters, and only a few hundred gathered at this time, following Yu Lisheng's side to calm the order.
Of course, under the chaos, talented people are bound to appear, and gold has reached the time to shine.
For example, the two apprentices of Qing Pingzi have outstanding talents, they can be called the dragon and phoenix among people, although they are young, they have many methods, and they have made a great contribution.
But there can only be one person who can really make the final decision and control the overall situation.
Gu Dan entrusted this matter to Wang Mang, so Wang Mang must be responsible for this matter, and he is the person in charge.
In his absence, without the nod and the person to take responsibility, many things can only be put on hold, and he does not dare to overstep his responsibilities.
As for Yu Lisheng, who was promoted to grandmaster, he had already left Yuzhou at this time, and he wanted to tell the whole world of Dayue that the war was over.
In the name of the Mo family.
"Dragons are leaderless, you want to say this, right?"
Xu Wanrong scooped up the medicinal soup, blew it gently, and sent it to Wang Mang's mouth.
The bitter decoction entered his throat, Wang Mang was a little helpless, "I can't say that I can't do it without it, but governing the source river is a big deal, where to govern it, how to govern it, there must be a nodding person, otherwise so many people are staying in that place, it's still winter, it's too luxurious!" β
What you want to do in winter costs far more than in other seasons, and there are all four countries to compensate, but there is no need to worry, but without a co-ordination, the power will not be used.
"It's okay, I've already asked Xun Ke to help with the top first, so let's have a good rest." Although Xun Ke is not very old, he has profound knowledge, so there is no problem for a few days, right? β
Xu Wanrong didn't give Wang Mang a chance to defend herself, and another spoonful was sent to her mouth.
After the Great Prayer trip, Xun Ke returned.
It is enough to see one place, to see the whole picture, to open the mind is the most important thing, and the rest is personal effort.
"Well, well."
Wang Mang lay on the bed helplessly, swallowing the decoction that Xu Wanrong handed to his mouth again and again like a puppet, obviously absent-minded.
Angry, Xu Wanrong flicked his forehead lightly.
"That's how you want to be the emperor?"
Xu Wanrong asked.
Although when Wang Mang first revealed this idea, she was also very excited.
But in an instant, the fact that the four countries surrendered had already made her understand, who would be the emperor?
It's not like to see Mr. Gu's face!
Mr. Gu thinks you can do it, and if you can't, you can go down.
If the Great Moon is like this, what is the difference between the other four countries?
If the emperor cannot represent the supreme authority, and must rely on people, he is just a puppet.
It's as if she used to be the Holy Maiden of the White Lotus, and she was the number one person in the White Lotus Sect, so she didn't have to listen to the White Lotus Sect Master?
Thinking about it this way, the emperor's temptation seems to be just like that.
Is the right to be put in a cage still worth looking forward to?
It's hard to say.
If there is no pursuit of fame and fortune in your heart, this kind of emperor is not appropriate.
This is not to say that Mr. Gu is bad, but it is obvious that the emperor in this situation will never be as chic and happy as Emperor Zong Ming, although she has not thought about it that way.
"A manly man, born in the world, how can he not want to do something great?"
Wang Mang's eyes widened, and there was an outstanding look in his bloodshot eyes, and it could be seen that he really wanted to be recognized through his own efforts.
"What kind of great cause?"
Wang Mang heard someone ask.
"Of course."
Just as he was about to answer, Wang Mang came back to his senses and looked at the door.
A figure in green clothes stood there, the sun shining on his body, making it impossible to see his face.
"Brother Gu!"
Wang Mang wanted to sit up.
Gu Dan stepped forward, green as promised, making up for the body that seemed too empty, "Go on, what is a great cause?" β
Wang Mang was silent for a moment, did not dare to conceal it, and replied according to his inner thoughts: "The name is left in the world, the world praises, and a hundred generations remember!" β
This is indeed the supreme pursuit of ordinary people.
The so-called name before and after death is nothing more than this.
It's just that the vast majority of people can't even leave their names in the annals of history, let alone remember them for hundreds of generations.
Even saints may not be able to survive a hundred generations without being removed.
"The position of the emperor can be mentioned by the people for three generations, and he has already been counted as the master. Those who have been mentioned in a different dynasty can be called the hero. And after changing the number of dynasties and generations, it can still be compared with human beings, and if you talk about it, you can call it an emperor through the ages. β
Gu Dan patted Wang Mang's shoulder, "Your ambition is not small!" β
"Isn't it too boring to live in the world and not make some achievements?"
Wang Mang said seriously: "Brother Gu, you know me, I am not afraid of hardship, I dare to do it, I will do it." β
Gu Dan looked at Wang Mang, when Wang Mang was not yet ten years old, this little guy became familiar with him, and his mind was indeed different from ordinary people.
But can you be a good emperor?
No one can guarantee this.
Just like when Emperor Zongming first ascended the throne, anyone thought that they had ushered in a Ming lord, who could have thought that there would be disasters for more than 20 years in the future.
It is easy to say that the original intention is ambitious, but it is too difficult to do it.
"You want to do it, you can. If you don't do it well, you have to go down. If you make a big mistake. I'm even more merciful. β
Gu Dan said.
"Good!"
Wang Mang's eyes burst into bright brilliance.
On this day, he had never thought that the previous competitors were more terrible than the other, the Yellow Dynasty and the White Lotus Sect Master, which one was not a grandmaster, and which one did not lay down his own family business?
But in the end, this position was still won by him close to the water.
Although it is about maintaining the trust of Gu Bao and the risk of being replaced if you are not qualified, what is that?
I don't know how many people are lining up to get up!
To have this opportunity to prove his strength and leave a name in the annals of history is terrifying.
Otsuki Otsuki, this title has been shouted for too long.
The war is over, the Great Moon is dead, and a new kingdom will rise, giving its people a different life in another name.
"What's the best name for a new kingdom?"
Wang Mang asked.
"That's for you to think about."
Gu Dan shook his head and declined the right to name it.
"The beauty of uniforms is called Hua; The state of etiquette is called summer. How about taking these two words? β
