Chapter 627: Emperor Yong's return

"So, the next official went back and set about arranging the matter."
There was a smile in Fiji's eyes, and this smile was self-satisfaction that he suggested to be taken seriously.
His suggestion on the matter of the rich family was recognized by Xiao Ming, which must be a recognition of ability for Xiao Ming.
From Xiao Wenxuan to Xiao Ming's side, the people who served have changed, and he naturally wanted to prove his outstanding talents to Xiao Ming.
Xiao Ming nodded when he heard the words. He said: "The enthronement ceremony is just one month later. This month is enough time for you to pass the news of your king's enthronement to other vassals, and you can test their reaction while you are on the throne."
"Yes, Your Highness." Pang Yukun and Fiji nodded at the same time. They still have a lot of things to deal with before the ceremony.
After talking about this, the two were about to leave. At this moment, Fiji suddenly remembered the affairs of King Chu. He said to Xiao Ming: "His Royal Highness, something strange happened before the official came to Qingzhou."
"Listen to it." Xiao Ming was in a good mood these past two days.
"King of Chu's fleet once appeared outside Jinling City, and we also saw missionaries from the West on board." Fiji said.
"Western missionary?" Xiao Ming showed a look of interest. He said: "Wang Xuan said that King Chu had contact with the French. Now it seems that this contact is not shallow."
"King of Chu's army has already captured Guangzhou. It is said that there are many Western businessmen and missionaries living in Guangzhou. Perhaps they are not French." Fiji pondered.
"No matter where the missionaries are, this is not a good thing for us anyway." Xiao Ming frowned. In Xiao Ming's view, Chu Wang's recognition of firearms was higher than that of other feudal kings.
Just as the King of Chu was severely taught by the Western powers in the late Qing Dynasty, the King of Chu was also severely taught by the Dutch. Now the stimulating King of Chu did not know what would happen to his psychology.
In other words, the current king of Chu may be more willing to accept changes. This is also his habit of dealing with the Dutch to keep good health. It is also because of this habit that it is estimated that he will establish contacts with the French at such a speed instead of showing up. The mentality of the heavenly kingdom screamed barbarians.
Now that the north is undecided, and the country has no time to go south, Fiji frowned and said: "His Royal Highness, this king's subordinates think that King Zhao is a threat, and now it seems that King Chu is not easy."
Xiao Ming looked to the south, his eyes deep, but he didn't worry about how big the waves the King Chu could make.
Because even if there are French to help the King of Chu, Chu can not keep up with the industrialization of Qingzhou, and the nature of war in the Age of Great Navigation is just a competition of industrial capabilities.
And if the French were involved in the civil strife in Da Yu, he would have reason to clean up Annan.
"The King of South Chu, King of North Zhao, the mother concubine said that his father had always been jealous of them, and now it seems to be so, but now King Chu will not rashly tear the covenant even if he cooperates with the French. He still has a lot of goods I didn't get it. Taking advantage of this time, this king wants to unify the north as soon as possible." Xiao Ming said calmly.
"His Royal Highness only needs to follow Wei Di's decree to the rich family. Once the army of King Yan and King Liang is defeated, the rich family of Yan and Liang will rush to show their loyalty to His Highness." Fiji believes.
Xiao Ming nodded, Fiji's idea was tantamount to lowering the difficulty of unification from high to low. Of course, everything has to pay a price, so the problem of the rich still remains.
Speaking of Wei Di's situation, Xiao Ming began to discuss the details of the enthronement ceremony with the two. Now a more prominent problem is that Qingzhou does not have a palace.
However, it is obviously too late to build the palace in one month. The three people discussed and decided to hold the enthronement ceremony in Qingzhou Fuya.
Compared with the Qi Palace, the Qingzhou Palace was very large, and it was divided into front and back halls, and the back hall could be used as a temporary court hall.
In addition to the court discussing politics, there are also cumbersome issues such as the arrangements of the first emperor's concubines. Xiao Ming was also helpless, so he simply handed the matter to the concubine Zhen.
These concubines may be a little dissatisfied with his arrangement depending on their seniority, but Zhenfei personally manages them even if they have opinions, they have to endure, after all, after he became the throne, Zhenfei will be the empress dowager.
The two of them left the palace after setting these details.
Since Fiji is proficient in the process of enthronement ceremony, he will be responsible for the arrangement of the entire enthronement order this month, while Pang Yukun can only be responsible for passing on the news of Xiao Ming ascending to the other vassals.
...
Five days later, Jizhou.
King Yong fell into silence after sending away the envoy from Qingzhou.
Concubine Yong asked inexplicably when he saw King Yong like this: "His Royal Highness, what happened?"
"Xiao Ming is ready to ascend the throne. The emperor really gave him his will." King Yong sighed slowly.
Princess Yong shook her head lightly. She said: "During the Chang'an Rebellion, the concubine said that the emperor would definitely pass his seat to Xiao Ming. Now which prince can turn the tide in the world?"
"The princess has always been smart, and this time I guessed it correctly. If it weren't for the princess's help these years, he would have lost his life with my reckless temper." Wang Yong looked at the princess Yong with affection.
Concubine Yong showed a faint smile, everyone knows that the king is irritable, but they don't know that the king is the only one who loves her.
"Then what does your Highness plan to do?" Princess Yong asked.
Thinking of this King Yong’s face a hint of horror appeared, "Brother Three Emperors is dead, he is not Xiao Ming’s opponent, how could I be Xiao Ming’s opponent, and I promised the emperor brother, no matter who is enthroned, I will Be loyal to the royal family."
"His Royal Highness said so." Concubine Yong took the hand of Wang Yong, "In that case, this time Xiao Ming ascended the throne, we might have to go there to show our intentions~EbookFREE.me~ Wang Yong nodded," Now Xiao Ming already has the Wei land. With the addition of this king's title, he is equivalent to occupying half of the northern part of the country, so it is much easier to settle the North. "
"His Royal Highness is wrong. Isn't King Kang's statehood in the hands of Xiao Ming? Now Xiao Ming has the power of the Four Kingdoms." Princess Yong said with a smile.
At the same time, the envoy from Qingzhou was driven out by King Yan from Bozhou City.
In the Yan Wang Mansion, Yan Wang jumped like thunder.
"Xiao Ming child, do you really think that the world today is still the world of the Great Yu Kingdom? Do you think that this world will always be your Xiao family's final say?" King Yan roared.
The officials and generals in the palace were all silent, and no one dared to feel bad at this time.
After venting the anger in his heart, King Yan sneered: "Isn't he going to ascend to the throne? This king will give him a surprise. The people will follow the order, and you will immediately summon the army. Now Xiao Ming has made it clear that he is not going to take Wei to the throne. When I spit it out, this king doesn't believe that he can stop the coalition forces of Yan, Zhao and Liang."
