Raid

Chapter 338 King Ning

After Gu Lingxu recovered, she went to see Li Shengxi again. He met alone. No one knew what the two of them talked about. But after that, the imperial edict came again.

That's all, there is one decree that is particularly ingenious, and this decree is to change the Marquis of Xiangcheng into the Marquis of Fuyuan.Although they are both Marquises, they were accepted as Marquises in the Southern Jin Dynasty after all.

And Li Sheng attacked here, and also started a large-scale march. Li Sheng's army was as powerful as a bamboo, and within five months, he took down a small half of the city in Northern Qi.

Li Shengxi strictly enforced military discipline and treated the people well. In addition, in order to prepare for the Northern Expedition, the Southern Jin Dynasty prepared a lot of money and food.So before Li Sheng attacked a city, the first thing he did was to stabilize the hearts of the people. After rectifying the army, he asked Rong Zhi to appease the people.

So for the common people, after Li Sheng attacked the city, their life became much better.

However, Li Shengxi was kind to the common people, but he was soft on others.She will not let go of the stubborn officials and powerful families.Just captured the city, this time is a good opportunity to clean up the wealthy clan.

Seeing that Li Sheng attacked with such methods, she didn't even need to lead troops to fight in some places. After she came to the city, what she saw was that the other party opened the city gate and waited for her to arrive.

The rich families and officials in these places believed that they had made meritorious deeds, and Li Shengxi could not clean them like the officials and rich families in other cities.

However, Li Shengxi also has a way to deal with these people. The first is to change the official system. After all, although the two countries are at the same time, the systems are actually slightly different.She rearranged the officials, and replaced important positions with her confidantes. Naturally, if there were officials who lost their positions or were demoted because of this, Li Shengxi would also compensate them with compensation.

She also asked Zhan Qirui to lobby in various ways, sow distrust among the powerful clans, make them distrust each other, and split them up. In this way, once Li Shengxi swung the butcher knife at some people, other wealthy clans would not take action.

In the end, there are strict laws and regulations. If anyone commits a crime, she will kill him without mercy.

Such wealthy families in various state capitals can only behave obediently with their tails between their legs.

Li Shengxi's reputation and prestige grew day by day, almost everyone in the Northern Qi Dynasty knew about it.Her prestige is also becoming more and more prominent. In the Northern Qi Dynasty, from the royal family to the common people, when mentioning the Southern Jin Dynasty, the first three words "Li Shengxi" would come to mind.

She is going forward indomitably, and after another three months, she hits Xiaqiu. As long as she takes down Xiaqiu, the next step is to go straight to Wangjing.

At this moment, news of Emperor Hongxing's death came from Linxi.

When Li Shengxi heard the news, she couldn't believe it, so much so that she forgot to kneel for a moment when the servant brought out the imperial decree.

She stared blankly at Dai Xiao's servant in front of her. He looked sad and wanted to deliver the order, but Li Shengxi just stood there blankly.

For a moment, he didn't know how to deal with himself. He wanted to remind him, but he was afraid of offending him. Now, with the power of Princess Jinning, who would dare to offend her?

He didn't dare to declare the decree directly, for fear that someone would impeach the eldest princess for being arrogant and domineering, and the eldest princess would use him to make amends.People in the imperial court may not be able to deal with the eldest princess, but it is more than enough to deal with him.

I was also afraid that the eldest princess was really sad and forgot to salute for a while. If he just announced the decree, the eldest princess would realize it later, and I am afraid that he would be the first to be held accountable.

Therefore, the servant did not dare to proceed hastily to the next step.So, for a while, he didn't know how to deal with himself.He had no choice but to hold the imperial decree and stand there in embarrassment.

"When did it happen?" Li Shengxi finally spoke. She tried her best to suppress the grief in her heart, and managed to squeeze out a word.Her eyes were flushed, her eyes were full but lifeless, but she never shed a single tear.Poor, but still not hiding the edge.

She moved her eyes almost mechanically to the servant who delivered the message, and the servant couldn't help but shivered, regardless of what she said to deliver the decree, she quickly replied: "Ten days ago, the fourth day of November."

"After the Holy Majesty passed away, he rushed all the way to send the news to you without stopping." At the end, the servant quickly added, for fear that Li Shengxi would blame him for delaying the news and punish him.

"The fourth day of November..." Li Shengxi murmured softly. Every word she said was very light, but when she said it, it was as heavy as a thousand pounds.

She lost her mother at birth, and her father at the age of three. For the remaining 20 years of her life, she was brought up by Emperor Hongxing. Now, how could she not feel pain when her elder brother, who was like a brother like her father, passed away?
Although she knew that her brother would not live for a long time, when the news really reached her ears, she still couldn't bear it.Over the past few months, she has been trying her best to ignore this matter, making herself forget that her brother was poisoned.

Self-deception and evasion, as if in this way, her elder brother, who was in his prime, would be able to live for a long time.

But reality is reality after all, and reality cannot be covered up without deception.

Elder brother died after all, not only that, but she didn't even go to see him for the last time, and she couldn't even be buried with the royal family members to keep watch.

"Brother has been in the imperial court for twenty years, but he is only 37 years old. Did he abandon me before he reached the age of forty?" Li Shengxi said sadly.

When the servant heard the words, he also shed tears.

After a while, Li Shengxi persuaded herself to accept this fact. Her eyes were filled with hot tears, and she managed to stop the tears. She looked at the servant and said, "Let's declare the decree."

After Li Shengxi finished speaking, he just knelt down.

The servant breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly proclaimed the decree.

The purpose is very simple, that is, to make her King Ning.

Emperor Yuan Jia wanted to issue the imperial edict to seal the king as early as a year ago, but Li Shengxi at that time was not as powerful as he is now.Those who opposed her at that time also had certain forces in the court.Feng Wang is risking the disgrace of the world, so she can only put it on hold temporarily, each step back, and give her the treatment of a prince.

The courtiers naturally refused to accept this imperial edict, but to this day, Li Shengxi can be said to have power over the government and the public, and it can even be said that he has made great achievements.And those who opposed this edict back then have long since lost their former power.

No one can stop Li Sheng from becoming king.

However, the servant brought two orders, and the other was the oral order issued by Emperor Hongxing before his death.

"My life and death are really destiny. My sister, don't be too sad. Although I am dead now, I especially want to unify the Northern Expedition. I hope that my sister will fulfill my wish. Don't stop the Northern Expedition. Anyone who hinders the Northern Expedition will be punished. I also hope that the industry will be established as soon as possible, and the world will be unified in the future, and the emperor's mausoleum will be sacrificed, so don't forget to tell it."

After Li Shengxi heard the words, she couldn't hold back her tears after all, the will was settled, she took it reluctantly, and then went back to the camp, crying uncontrollably.

Happy New Years Eve!ヽ(*≧ω≦)
