  Chapter 407 It’s simply not something done by humans

  . With the help of Prime Minister Liu, Wang Yue’s ascension to the throne pretending to be King Xiao Nanchen went smoothly without any setbacks.

  The prefectures and counties in Beichen that were about to make a move immediately quieted down, and only Taiyuan, where Jin Rong was located, was still about to make a move.

  The people of Zhongzhou were very happy when they heard that King Xiao Nanchen was going to ascend the throne as emperor. They felt that Zhongzhou could also enjoy peace like Xizhou in the future.

  Hong Xiaoyu and Zhou Tianxing, who went to Xizhou to mobilize troops, worked hard along the way and soon brought more than 100,000 troops to Zhongzhou.

  On the day when the army entered the city, when the people of Zhongzhou heard about the arrival of the king's division, they all responded lively in the streets, as if they had forgotten the military turmoil not long ago.

  The first thing Wang Yue did after he ascended the throne was to announce that Jin Rong had rebelled, sent Jian Feng and Hong Xiaoyu to lead troops to exterminate him, and then implemented a series of familiar measures to stabilize the situation in the court.

  Prime Minister Liu looked at Wang Yue's methods and quickly calmed down in Beichen. He even admired him, but it was a pity. If Wang Yue was the real King Xiao Nanchen, that would be great.

  ...

  Time passed very quickly, 3 months passed, Zhou Shengchen's injury was healed, Wang Yue patted his butt without any regret, and together with Mole, he took Qingzhou's soldiers and horses back to his Qingzhou. .

  Before King Xiao Nanchen went to court for the first time, he read the official documents left by Wang Yue and found that Wang Yue handled them very properly. He not only solved the problem, but also stabilized the somewhat chaotic situation. In just three months, he let Beichen, which almost collapsed, stabilized again.

  After King Xiao Nanchen went to court, he discovered one thing. The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty seemed to be much more docile than the last time he came to Zhongzhou, which made him admire Wang Yue's methods even more.

  Thinking of Wang Yue, who had no nostalgia and was anxious to go home, and was about to give birth, King Xiao Nanchen suddenly made an announcement in the court.

  This time Wang Yue was diligent and accomplished in quelling the chaos, so he was granted the title of King of Qi, and his fiefdom included Qingxu Prefecture.

  The civil and military officials throughout the dynasty were talking a lot, and they all looked at Prime Minister Liu, waiting for his decision to stop the emperor's insanity.

  You know, Wang Yue already owns the land of Qingxu and Xuzhou. If he is given the throne again, he will definitely be unable to lose his power in the future.

  Prime Minister Liu had always been worried, fearing that Wang Yue would become addicted to the throne and suddenly kill Zhou Shengchen. He would be a sinner through the ages.

  However, when Prime Minister Liu sent Wang Yue out of the city yesterday, he found that Wang Yue really had no nostalgia and wanted to return to Qingzhou. This made Prime Minister Liu suddenly feel reluctant.

  Prime Minister Liu thought of the cooperation over the past few months, which made him feel for the first time how happy it was to work beside a wise king.

  Seeing that Zhou Shengchen seemed to want to reward Wang Yue, Prime Minister Liu came out to support Zhou Shengchen's opinion. After all, without Wang Yue, he was sure that King Xiao Nanchen would have surrendered to Liu Yizhen, who was supported by Jin Rong. Then he would really It's over.

  Seeing that Prime Minister Liu had no objections, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty had no objections. After all, in the past few months, they had been numbed by Wang Yue and Prime Minister Liu's double act. They were afraid that this would be another show. And they are just actors on the stage, and none of them dare to say anything.

  Zhou Shengchen was a little surprised. He didn't expect the decision to be crowned king to be passed so easily, which made him feel incredible.

  However, when Zhou Shengchen returned to the palace and looked at the pile of memorials that followed, he thought of the memorials approved by Wang Yue again, and he suddenly understood why Wang Yue ran so fast.

  Wang Yue may not only be doing it because Shi Yi is about to give birth, but there is also a possibility that Wang Yue really doesn't want to do it anymore.

  Trying to be a wise king is simply not a human thing to do.

  Zhou Shengchen recalled Wang Yue in Xizhou Xiaoyao Valley, and he felt more and more that this was very possible.

  As soon as Wang Yue returned to Qingzhou with his army, he received news that Shi Yi was about to give birth. Wang Yue had no time to deal with the follow-up matters and left his troops to Mole, so he hurried back to the house.

  Perhaps due to fate, as soon as Wang Yue stepped into the backyard, he heard a loud voice. When Wang Yue heard it, he knew he was a brat. But before he took two steps, he heard another cry. This was obviously a girl. .

  At this time, Zhou Shengchen's reward also came, and the news that Wang Yue was granted the title of King Qi soon spread throughout Qingxu.

  For Wang Yue, this was a double blessing, and for the people of Qingxu Prefecture, it was even more worthy of celebration.

  When Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan were full moon, suddenly an imperial edict came from Zhongzhou. Zhou Shengchen recognized Tuan Tuan Yuan Yuan as his adopted son and adopted daughter, and asked Wang Yue to send Tuan Tuan Yuan Yuan to Zhongzhou after Tuan Tuan Yuan was 3 years old to be raised by Zhou Shengchen.

  Wang Yue twitched the corner of his mouth, what does this week's birthday mean? He is Shi Yi's master, what kind of logic does it have to recognize Tuantuan and Yuanyuan as adopted daughters.

  Wang Yue glanced at Shi Yi suspiciously. Could it be that his birthday this week would be interesting to his apprentice?
  Thinking of the words of a certain star in the future, he said that the former master and apprentice were once a master and a lifelong father. However, the current master and apprentice are really not sure what the relationship is.

  Wang Yue, who felt something was wrong the more he thought about it, asked suspiciously, "Shi Yi, what does your master mean by this? Why did he suddenly lower his seniority?" Shi Yi rolled her eyes. She knew

  what Wang Yue was thinking. She Looking at the two sleeping children, he said speechlessly, "What are you thinking about? My master takes good care of me, but I am your wife, and you have nothing to do with him. Besides, you two are not much different in age. , maybe he is willing to discuss friendship with your equal?"

  Wang Yue still looked at Miao Shiyi, as if you think I am easy to deceive? However, Shi Shiyi still did not change his statement, and Wang Yue could really feel depressed. He said a little depressed, "Your master wants to discuss friendship with me, but you can't let Tuan Tuan Yuan Yuan go to Zhongzhou. I will write a letter soon." The child is too young and cannot be separated from his mother. We will wait until the child is older."

  Looking at Wang Yue who was sulking, Shiyi felt a little helpless. She turned around, walked behind Wang Yue, rubbed Wang Yue's shoulders, and smiled. He said, "My master has been fighting in the world since he was a child. He vowed not to marry for the rest of his life. He probably wanted to raise Tuantuan as his own child."

  Wang Yue was noncommittal. Zhou Shengchen was not the emperor before. Of course it was possible, but now he is the emperor. How could he not? Take a wife.

  However, Wang Yue said nothing more to Shi Yi, because he only saw admiration for Zhou Shengchen from Shi Yi.

  Wang Yue was struggling here, but Zhou Shengchen couldn't bear it after dealing with the memorial for a few days.

  It happened that when Feng Feng and Hong Xiaoyu conquered Jin Rong, things did not go particularly smoothly. Zhou Shengchen quickly handed over the affairs of the DPRK to Prime Minister Liu and the cabinet, and then went off to conquer in person.

  ...

  Jin Rong was also a tycoon. After he returned to his base, he immediately appointed Liu Zizhen to the throne. Then he used the emperor to command the princes, and quickly captured the surrounding important places, and his strength expanded rapidly.

  When Jianfeng and Hong Xiaoyu mobilized soldiers and horses from Xizhou and rushed to Taiyuan, they faced a pass with a high city and thick gates. They attacked for several months but failed to capture it. For a time, there was really nothing they could do against Jin Rong.

  Because the attack by Luo Feng and Hong Xiaoyu did not go smoothly, the unruly alien leaders in the North saw hope and responded to Jin Rong's call. The aliens in the six towns in the North sent troops to assist Jin Rong in defending the city. Zhou Shengchen also It was at this time that Yujia personally conquered.

  After all, these foreign races have long coveted the power of the Central Plains. The Three Kingdoms War has long exhausted the potential of the Han Dynasty, and these foreign races are no longer afraid of the Central Plains Dynasty. Now there is an opportunity to further weaken the Central Plains Dynasty. Those who How could the heroes not be willing?

  That's why Zhou Shengchen decided to go on a personal expedition. Not only did he not want to deal with government affairs, he felt that if Beidi was not conquered, Beichen would never have peace.

  However, the Northern Expedition, which had already been captured, suddenly fell into a bitter battle due to the changes in the six northern towns.

  Seeing that even Zhou Shengchen could not quickly quell the troops of Jin Rong and Six Towns, the Yuwen family of Guanlong Map also began to attack everywhere to expand their territory. The Gao family of Hebei also started to attack various places in Hebei under the banner of revenge for Empress Dowager Gao. Make trouble.

  If Xiao Yan of Nan Xiao had not just ascended the throne and was also cleaning up Nan Xiao's affairs, Beichen might have been in big trouble.

  In the entire Beichen, only Xizhou and Zhongzhou of Qi State were relatively stable. A large number of refugees came from the north and poured into Xizhou and Qi State.

  It's not that no one goes to Zhongzhou, but because the north of Zhongzhou is full of miscellaneous soldiers supplying the army, and the people in the north are really afraid that something will go wrong.

  Moreover, it is not particularly easy to make a living in Zhongzhou. Unlike Xizhou and Qi, they never refuse refugees and have a very good reputation.

  ...

  But Wang Wangyue of Qi is implementing reforms, following the same path he had adopted when he knew it. The resistance was particularly strong at the beginning. Compared with the resistance in the Song Dynasty, it was like child's play.

  The power of the clans in this era is really too powerful. Any family has thousands or hundreds of private soldiers and slaves, let alone the clans.

  However, now Beichen is fighting and Nanxiao is busy. Wang Yue's army is too idle. Hundreds of thousands of soldiers are waiting at the ready, always ready to wipe out the disobedient clans, which also makes the noble families of Qi watch. The Tao family.

  However, they were disappointed. When Tuan Tuan Yuan Yuan was full moon, Yang Guang listened to Wang Yue's reform plan and asked the Yang family to support the reform. Wang Yue did not hesitate anymore and immediately carried out the reform.

  The largest family in Qi State, the Tiao family, all supported the reform, which made the reforms in Qi State unusually smooth.

  It's not that the old fox like Guang Guang suddenly became enlightened, but that he really couldn't bear it. In just a few days, he also saw that Wang Yue was in a great position, and that Yang Shiyi was Wang Yue's concubine again and gave birth to Wang Yue. As a young prince, he certainly had no reason not to support him.

  You must know that Yang Shiyi's son also has the blood of the Yang family. As long as Qi is here, the Yang family will be stable.

  Yang Guang passed away a few days after the full moon of Tuan Tuan Yuan Yuan, and he died peacefully, because he seemed to have seen the future glory of the Yang family.

  The death of Guang Guang did not affect the reform of Qi State at all. Beichen and Chen were all paying attention to the war in the north, and the reform of Qi State did not attract the attention of other places.

  By the time they reacted, Wang Yue's reforms had already been completed and entered a stage of rapid development.

  Through this reform, Wang Yue not only improved the lives of the people within the territory, but also recruited many private soldiers to join the team.

  Coupled with the conscription in Qi State during this period, Wang Yue's Qi State already has 700,000 to 800,000 troops.

  All major military camps throughout Qi State are training urgently and busily, always preparing to deal with sudden wars.
