My Chinese ancestors

Chapter 532 Announcement
When Su Cong returned to the ancestral temple, Sima Yi and his son had been thrown off the torture rack, and the torture of the two did not end so simply.

A group of emperors brought them and their heirs' spiritual tablets into a small room in the side courtyard of the ancestral temple, probably to distinguish it from the altar table.

But Sima Yi and his son had seen big battles before, and even though they were tortured terribly, they still didn't say a word to beg for mercy.

On the other side, a minister of Zhou Dynasty named Lai Junchen became even more excited about such an object of torture.

"Your Majesty, I will prepare new torture instruments for these two people in two days and keep them for the enjoyment of the emperors."

Flattery is his instinct to survive. He bows and kowtows, which makes Su Chen feel comfortable. However, as a descendant, he has always been wary of such sycophants.

Looking at Lai Junchen, Su Chen just smiled at the corner of his mouth, raised his hand to let him stand up, and said a few words of encouragement: "Since you have come under my command, you should work hard and enjoy endless glory and wealth. But in the past, you bit the ministers of the DPRK. , please don’t use it freely here.”

Sweet dates and big sticks must be served together.

Although Lai Junchen had not read any books and did not know a few Chinese characters, he was astute and good at observing people's emotions, so he naturally took Su Chen's words to heart.

He nodded repeatedly: "Yes, Your Majesty, I will definitely keep it in mind and never let down Your Majesty's regard."

After returning from the sea, I worked non-stop at the ancestral temple for half a day, and I was really exhausted now. Most of the emperors over there were quite satisfied with bringing Sima's family over at this time.

"Your majesties, I have accomplished what I promised you. Let me go back and have a good sleep first."

"What the Sima family has done will cause disaster for thousands of years, so naturally we will not let it go easily."

With that said, Su Chen waved his hand and summoned Xu Chu, who was guarding outside, and asked him to take the man away from the ancestral temple. Along the way, he also moved the two torture instruments outside and placed them in the courtyard where Li Xuanba often practiced martial arts.

After doing all this, Su Chen looked at the figures of the emperors over there.

"That's right, we have something to play with this time."

Here, the two of them walked under the eaves, and everything was quiet. Along the way, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, Yang Jian, added some suggestions from time to time based on what Su Chen had just said.

While everyone was talking, Su Chen turned around and left the ancestral temple. Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, Yang Jian, who rarely spoke to him, followed him out. The two walked under the eaves together. The passing maids and eunuchs only saw the emperor and two central guards following him. Behind them, they all retreated to one side, waiting for the emperor to pass by.

"That's right. Don't imitate my son. If Yang Yong had succeeded to the throne, he might not have died in two lifetimes."

"Changsheng, if you want to rest, hurry up."

"Continue to recuperate. The Western Regions have been conquered. There is no need to go on a conquest. From now on, we will send some scholars there every year to open the Chinese Museum there and set up the Western Regions Protectorate. We will use culture to gradually erode the Western Regions and use soft means to conquer the Western Regions. Incorporate into my Daxia territory.”

"That way, I feel relieved."

As he was about to leave the ancestral temple, Su Chen stopped and said, "Your Majesty's words make it clear to me. Things in the Western Regions should be simmered slowly!"

Yang Jian looked at this Chinese descendant who came from later generations and couldn't help but sigh, "My prince Yang Yong, although he is a scholar and a bit sloppy in his work, he is not so impatient. Yang Guang... has talents that are not inferior to those of his elder brother. My martial arts skills are also good, but I am impatient and think I can do everything I want to do in one go.”

"The Japanese pirates have been defeated and the sea has calmed down. What are Changsheng's next plans?"

Su Chen is dressed in imperial attire, looking bold and tall. Although Yang Jian, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, is old, he has a strong figure and is only slightly thinner.

Seeing that political affairs were being discussed, Dian Wei and Xu Chu were seven or eight steps behind, and waved their hands to drive away the eunuchs and guards who wanted to come over.

"Your Majesty, why bother dwelling on the past?"

"How can I not be entangled? If it weren't for my father's dying instructions, Ah Sheng would not be in a hurry to complete these instructions."

Yang Jian took a breath, then smiled and waved to Su Chen: "Okay, the past is over. If I talk about it anymore, I will be even more sentimental." Standing under the corner of the palace eaves, the two chatted again. After some gossip, Yang Jian was called away by Li Shimin, while Su Chen returned to the palace.

Dian Wei stayed outside, and he asked the palace maid to come over to serve him. He took off his heavy imperial robes, took off his crown, and let the palace maid move around. Then he lay down on the dragon bed, and within a few breaths he began to whine tiredly. Fell asleep.

When I woke up, it was already the next morning. I had slept for more than five hours. I had regained the sleep I had lost during the previous expedition against the Japanese pirates, and I felt much better.

After breakfast, I walked among the flowers in the back garden. While twisting and stretching my muscles, I asked Dian Wei and Xu Chu, who were also twisting and exhaling, if any military generals were coming from the front palace.

"Commander Liu didn't send any news, well...it doesn't seem like that!" Dian Wei went to bed in the middle of the night. When he woke up, he and Su Chen had breakfast together and came here to stretch their muscles.

Xu Chu also nodded and said angrily from the other end: "Indeed not."

"It's okay if you don't. We've all been floating at sea for several months, so it would be good to have more rest."

Su Chen slowly finished a set of movements. When his hands lowered, a circle of dust blew up from the ground around him. After finishing his movements, he took the silk handkerchief handed by the palace maid and wiped his forehead: "Go and convey my will to the deer. Yang ordered a batch of grain, wine and meat to be taken to the military camp.

By the way, I will allocate 500,000 yuan from my internal affairs treasury and distribute it to the soldiers. Soldiers who died in battle will be counted separately. "

Hundreds of thousands of guan is not a small amount of money, but to Su Chen, this money is just ashes in the warehouse. It is better to reward it and let the soldiers spend it. It can also circulate in the market and promote the market. Set prosperity.

After all, at his level, especially those from later generations, the desire for this world is actually relatively low. Fun and beautiful things are basically indifferent.

"This is the reward I promised my soldiers. You can't break your promise."

The guard who conveyed the order rushed away. Su Chen handed back the silk handkerchief, and another guard came forward to wait on one side.

"I will convey my decree to the Taiwei again, and defeat the Japanese pirates. It must be spread throughout the Western Regions and Nanyang to promote the power of Daxia. Some things must be done."

After doing all this, Su Chen did not continue to practice martial arts to strengthen his body. Now he came to Luyang to stay temporarily. He was just resting and recuperating. He would not waste time here. When he returned to Yanjing, he still needed to take over the government affairs from Xun Yu and Guo Jia. .

With Xun Yu, a talented person in charge of the army, sitting at the rear, and Guo Jiacong supporting him, this was Su Chen's greatest support for daring to fight in person.

Soon after, the Taiwei Mansion received orders one after another. Jia Xu already knew what Su Chen was thinking yesterday. When the order came again this morning, he was already working on it. All matters related to the army must go through his hands. .

Reorganize the words and write a document of declaration.

The news of the bloody massacre of Japanese pirates was finally confirmed by the government on this day. After the document of the announcement was printed here by Su Chen, it immediately began to spread throughout the Central Plains and the north and south of the Yangtze River.

Whether it is the land of Youyan, which is like a calm water, or the hot desert of the Western Region on the grassland, when I heard the news, it was already late August.

The battle that took place on the sea showed that the Xia army was not only unrivaled in land warfare but also as terrifying as a dragon on the sea.

Tie Fo looked at the message in his hand and couldn't help but sigh at the glorious scenery of Xia Kingdom. At the same time, Zheng He, who was far away in the north, was ordered to go south.

A fleet was formed in Linjun to patrol Nanyang. On August 27th, the Youyan army who massacred the remaining Japanese returned from the sea.

Also coming back was a huge meteorite. The local people were shocked when they saw the two huge ships carrying the giant meteorites side by side.

They never imagined that the destruction of the Japanese island was really what the storytellers said, and that the demise of the Japanese people was indeed related to this meteorite.

After hearing the news, Su Chen waited in the palace early. In the afternoon, dozens of carriages carried the meteorites and placed them outside the East City Gate.
