Chapter 688 Great Merit

After paying homage to Cao Wei, the high school's evaluation of Yang Zheng was much higher.

The voices urging people to move in have become much quieter.

But this is like the calm before the storm, there is only one opportunity left.

It is the general trend that Yang Zheng ascends the throne and proclaims himself emperor.

Even the streets and alleys are whispering about it.

On the fifth day of the third month of the tenth year of Ganlu, a good news came back from the Western Regions, and the whole country rejoiced.

The eldest son of the king, Yang Yi, led 25,000 horses, crossed the Jinshan Mountains, and attacked for 5,000 miles. He defeated Wusun in one fell swoop and captured Wusun King Dakun Mique Anmi.

More than ten people received 130 million in gold and silver, and the population was nearly 400,000.

The back road to Xianbei in the western desert was cut off, and the hundreds of thousands of troops on the front line were like duckweeds in the water. Only Yin Chun defended Gaochang, and defeat was inevitable.

Wusun and Xianbei noble captives were on their way to Chang'an.

"Young man has defeated the enemy!" Yang Zheng pretended to be calm.

But I knew in my heart that this battle was decisive for the Western Region.

With Wusun and Gaochang constraining the east and west, the north and south of the Tianshan Mountains are like cooked meat in a pot, just cook it slowly.

This battle also showed that the Qin cavalry was almost invincible in field battles.

Double stirrups, high saddles, iron horseshoes, armored cavalry, long spears, repeating crossbows...

These things are definitely ahead of the surrounding countries.

Before I could be happy, another good news came from behind.

After learning that Wusun had been captured, Moxi Xianbei lost ground, lacked food and grass, and dispersed people's hearts. The enemy troops were instigated by the lurking Xuanyi Lang, and a fight broke out. Leaders Zhi Danluo and Luo Rilu were hacked to death with random swords, and dozens of them were killed.

Wan Dajun asked Yin Chun, the governor of Xizhou, to surrender.

The countries of Qiuci, Shule, Khotan, Yueban, and Yanqi sent envoys to beg for surrender.

In Kangju, Dawan sent envoys to Chang'an to ask for peace.

All threats to the west have been eliminated!

This battle was extremely glorious, no less than Cao Zhen's Battle of Hexi.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty!" Lu Zhi took the lead and saluted with raised hands.

"Congratulations, king!" Others followed.

"Congratulations to you all!" The Moxi Xianbei and the Western Regions have been solved together. All the enemies around Qin have surrendered, and they can concentrate on dealing with the Central Plains and Jiangdong.

"The Qin Dynasty is so powerful that it controls Mobei in the Western Region. Its territory far exceeds that of the Central Plains. Your Majesty has great martial arts and is a plan for all the people. I invite you to ascend the throne to determine the people of the world!" This time Lu Zhi took the lead in persuading him to come forward.

"Your Majesty, please ascend the throne!" the ministers said in unison.

At this time, Du Kuan came out of nowhere and said, "There have been natural disasters in the Qin Dynasty for two consecutive years. Your Majesty has ascended the throne and obeyed the laws of heaven. Heaven and man will respond. If the laws of heaven are upright, then the four seasons will be right. This year, the Qin Dynasty will have good weather and good weather."

Yang Zheng gave a long laugh, and the meaning of his words seemed to be that he wanted to ascend the throne to congratulate the Qin Dynasty.

But having said that, the Qin State has withstood natural disasters for two consecutive years.

There is plenty of rain and snow this year. It gets cold when it should be cold and rains when it should rain. The weather in Guanzhong should be smooth.

If God doesn't take it, he will be blamed for it.

Now that things have happened, there is no need to deliberately pretend to be modest and chill the hearts of everyone.

Yang Yi's victory came at the right time, pushing Yang Zheng's prestige to its peak.

"Since the destiny of Qin is in Qin, I should obey the will of heaven and respond to the people's will!" Yang Zheng said solemnly.

Three resignations and three concessions are usurping the throne. I am ascending the throne in a dignified way.

In the final analysis, Qin was fought with swords and spears.

There is no need to give in. As a hero, you should do your part!

"I will see you, Your Majesty!" Everyone in the hall knelt down.

"Everyone loves you!" Yang Zheng held up his hands.

After the news spread, the city of Chang'an seemed to be on fire instantly. People put on new clothes and spontaneously took to the streets to cheer.

The soldiers are also different than before. Their waists are straight and their eyes are brighter than before.

The big flag with the word "Qin" on the city wall made a sound.

Countless clouds floated over Chang'an City.

The sound of war drums is long and majestic, sounding from Chen hour to Zi hour.

Nothing should be more important than correct position, and etiquette should not be more important than changing the Yuan Dynasty.

Ascension to the throne and proclaiming himself emperor is not a trivial matter, involving complicated etiquette, grand ceremonies, etc.

If you want to run something more prosperous, you need to spend a lot of money and food.

In addition, there are various enfeoffments.

Others are easy to handle, just follow the rules. The key is Yang Yi, who made great achievements this time.

He originally had a great reputation among the Qiang and Hu people, but this time he expanded his territory, was responsible for the destruction of the country, and was the eldest son. Can he be the same as before when he returns to Chang'an?

There is no need to think about it, a battle for the inheritance will definitely break out!

The rules of politics are not that you can do whatever you want, but that the various forces and factors behind it are superimposed, time and momentum, and eventually become uncontrollable.

Yang Xu was only nine years old, while Yang Yi was able to destroy the country at the age of nineteen.

In the past, when I didn’t have such a big business and didn’t have children, I felt that I had to build a business with strong abilities.

But after studying politics for so many years, I realized that things are certainly not that simple.

Those with strong ability to establish themselves are tantamount to encouraging future generations to seize the throne.

No one who wants to seize the legitimate prince would think that he is incompetent.

If Cao Wei had not been too anxious to fight against each other, and if the Sima clan had not had the Eight Kings Rebellion, China would not have gone into darkness step by step.

Therefore, if you want the country to be stable, it is very important to establish a direct line of succession.

This is about establishing a set of rules.

Emperor Li Er was indeed very capable, but the Tang Dynasty could never escape the shadow and curse of the Xuanwu Sect.

At least Yang Zheng, the man who created the foundation, cannot set a wrong example for future generations.

The Yang family is already very thin, and if there is another attempt to seize the heir in Kowloon, the consequences can be imagined.

From another perspective, if there is a descendant like Li Er who is so powerful that he will not be restricted by the rules.

Wei Guan, Suo Jing and others all remained silent and did not express any opinions.

Back in the harem, the relationship between Xia Houzhi and Jiang Ah Lian also became subtle.

A child is valued by his mother, and a mother is valued by her son.

There were also more eunuchs and maids gathered around Jiang Ah Lian.

Although Jiang Ah Lian was at a loss, she couldn't resist the enthusiasm of others.

Yang Zheng did not go to Jiang Ah Lian's dormitory, but went directly to Xia Houzhi. There was indeed something wrong with Xia Houzhi's eyes.

Yang Zheng ordered people to recall Yang Xu from Taixue.

Born in an imperial family, I understand everything I need to know.

The family of three faced each other, and Xia Houzhi prepared some food and wine.

Although they are ordinary mutton, beef, and spring vegetables, they are all made extremely delicately.

Yang Zheng smiled and said: "Your eldest brother has made great achievements, how do you think Xu'er will reward him?"

Xia Houzhi was nervous at the side.

"My brother has made great contributions to the country, so he must be rewarded generously. It is too tiring for my father to conquer the world alone. If I had my brother to help me, my father would not have to work so hard."

"What are you talking nonsense about Xu'er?" Xia Houzhi was anxious.

Yang Yi has already accomplished the task of destroying the country. If he returns to the dynasty, his reputation and power will directly exceed that of Yang Xu.

This is not changed by human will.

In the Qin State, Han people accounted for 60%, Qiang people accounted for 20%, and other Di, Xiongnu, Xiongnu, Xianbei, and mixed Hu people accounted for 20%.

It seems that Han people are the majority, but the problem is that among the 60% Han people, 70% are Shu people.

Not everyone may support Yang Xu.

The Qiang people, on the other hand, regard Yang Yi as one of their own.

Other Di, Xi, Xiongnu, Xianbei, and Zahu will more or less side with Yang Yi.

"Are you telling the truth?" Yang Zheng's smile did not change, and he could tell that this child really cared about him.

A nine-year-old child knows that caring for his parents shows his filial nature.

"My father is the soul of the Qin Dynasty. Xu'er only hates that he is too young to be able to contribute to his father. It is truly a happy event for my family to have an elder brother fighting."
