hum~
All civil and military officials were overjoyed.

It's just that they were in the mourning hall of Emperor Changxing, and each of them had to try hard to suppress the expressions of surprise on their faces and try to squeeze out a little sadness.

Otherwise, once the old scholar of the Ministry of Rites investigates him, everyone will look bad.

However, everyone knows what Tiele's petition represents.

It means that the empire has five or six more territories the size of Dingxi County, and at the same time, Yunchui's territory extends further into the hinterland of Xiliang.

Not only does it expand the strategic depth of the Western Frontier, but also the empire can receive timely information and respond whenever there is a change in the depths of the grassland.

In addition, there is a large and fertile horse farm.

Although Yunchui already owns the three major racecourses of Jiuyuan, Ruinan and Yingling, no one would have too little of war horses, a rare strategic material.

And compared to the vast territory, the war horses trained by the three major horse farms are still not enough.

At the same time, this petition also represents the legal ownership of the territory.

Even if thousands of years have passed, the world has changed.

But as long as I present this petition, the descendants of Yun Chui can justifiably point to this land and say that it belongs to me...

However, the petition at this time only had Tiele's seal on it, and had not yet been stamped with the imperial seal.

Therefore, it cannot be counted for the time being.

Seal?
Chen Xiujian's expression changed.

He turned his head and glanced at the historian holding a green pen under the golden pillar, and then lowered his head deeply.

According to what Guanyi just said, the Ministry of War received this petition the day before yesterday, but he did not submit it to Emperor Changxing as soon as possible.

So unfortunately,
The old emperor only saw the restoration of the empire's territory until his death.

No matter how brilliant the historian there is, he will only have the reputation of "guarding the land with responsibility, guarding the land with responsibility, and guarding the land with due diligence".

As for the historical achievement of "opening up territories and expanding territories" that is easily available to him, it has nothing to do with him.

Ugh.

Chen Xiujian sighed secretly.

That's it.

Nowadays, the royal family and relatives are all over the court, and everyone's hearts are on the side of King Ning, and they are doing their best to make him famous.

I have nothing, so I'd better go back and spend time with my wife and children, and don't seek death again.

There was no imperial seal on the petition. Chen Xiujian saw it, and naturally no one else missed it either.

For a moment, the huge mourning hall couldn't help but whisper.

Some brave ones even stood up directly and bowed in the direction of Guanyi, the Minister of War.

"Master Shangshu, now that the late emperor's edict has been issued, His Highness Prince Ning is our rightful next emperor."

"With the Tao, a family cannot be without a master for a day, and a country cannot be without a king for a day. Now that the empire has regained Beikuan, there is no longer an obstacle between Yunchui and Baekje."

"I wonder when His Highness will return to Yunchui and Star City?"

As soon as these words came out, the huge mourning hall was silent, except for the incense candles on the table that made a reluctant and lonely sound.

Guanyi looked calm.

He first bowed respectfully to the spiritual tablet above, then scanned the crowd before speaking slowly.

"Everyone, the late emperor is the destined emperor. Now that his merits have been fulfilled and he has been promoted to immortality, this is the first joy. And under the late emperor's legacy, the empire will soon have a new wise king to rule the world. This is the second joy. In addition, the empire has expanded a large area of ​​territory. , this is the three joys."

"The ancients said that if a country has three joys, the world will be at peace."

"So I, like everyone else, want to know the answer as soon as possible."

"Just now, the Ministry of War's urgent order for eight hundred miles has been issued. I believe His Highness Prince Ning will return to Xingji City soon after receiving the news."

----

Baekje, east coast plain.

It was not the publication day of the newspaper, but because of the windmill summons, Ren Ning knew the news about Beihai Customs and Star City as soon as possible.

Town of Tara.

It means yellow grassland in Baekje language.Lei Er touched his bare chin, rarely without something in his mouth.

He took the news from Ren Ning and just took a look at it, and he had mixed feelings.

A few years ago, he and Ren Ning rode together on the Xiliang prairie.

It was also summer then, and just like now, I would hide from enemies in a remote corner.

Although he was thousands of miles away from home, Lei Er kept chattering at that time.

Calculating which prince will eventually become Yun Chui's crown prince or even the next emperor.

The outcome was countless, but the final result turned out to be someone he could never have dreamed of.

It has to be said that things are impermanent.

"General," Lei Erzai read the news carefully several times before he couldn't help but speak, "Now that the Beihai Pass has been recaptured and Genjing Masato is at ease, as long as we spread the news, it is estimated that the Japanese pirates in the east coast plain will soon be They will become like birds and beasts and scatter."

"That's right." Ren Ning nodded.

He turned to look at the messenger and said, "Send the news to Liang Qianchang immediately."

"Yes!" Xiaobing responded quickly.

Ren Ning nodded and looked up into the distance.

Although he recalled most of the Xingluo soldiers on the east coast, Liang Rushi's battalion was an exception.

At this time, the [-]st Forward Battalion was still wandering in the territory near Wu Siyuan in the north, trying its best to put pressure and threats on the enemy from the rear.

As for spreading news, the First Battalion had been doing this job a lot since Ren Ning led his troops to attack Nanfeng a few years ago, and it could be said that they were very familiar with it.

Of course, warriors are also deceitful.

Some of those messages are true and some are false.

It is difficult to distinguish between true and false.

Anyway, as long as it can dampen the enemy's ambition and improve one's own courage.

Now all he needs to do is get the news at hand into Liang Rushi's hands.

I believe that in less than two days, the news of Masato Nei's death will spread throughout the east coast plain.

"General," Lei Er hesitantly flexed his hands, "the overall situation here on the east bank has been decided, and the brothers will take care of the rest. How about you return to Yunchui first?"

After saying that, he glanced at the windmill news in his hand.

Although Emperor Changxing left a posthumous edict, Ren Ning was already the legitimate next emperor.

But after all, it was a power that surpassed tens of millions of people. Not to mention the other biological sons of Emperor Changxing, even the descendants of the dragons from the collateral and even remote clans were all greedy for it.

Therefore, before he completely sits on the throne, everything is possible.

"It doesn't matter."

Ren Ning understood what he meant and shook his head with a smile.

"I know that you will definitely be able to fight this battle successfully, but if you go back so early, don't you want to be a dutiful son to Emperor Changxing?"

uh~
Lei Er was a little confused, and after a while he nodded slowly.

In the past ten years or so, that old guy, Emperor Changxing, has secretly harmed many good generals and loyal ministers of the empire.

Especially during the last invasion of Xiliang, he almost gave away the entire Dingxi County and Yanjie Fortress to the Xiliang people.

Thinking of this, Lei Er's stomach felt tight.

"The general said so."

Rather than go back and kowtow to Emperor Changxing as a filial piety, it is better to stay here and let the people from Xingji City take him to the imperial mausoleum.

Furthermore, with the protection of the Starfall Legion, there is no need to worry about Ren Ning's safety.

"If you continue to stay here, you can also take the opportunity to see if there are any other princes or forces lurking in the country."

It's better to say if there are none, if there are, we will catch them all.

"I see." Lei Er understood.

Since Ren Ning has his own plan, he will stop talking nonsense. (End of chapter)
