Jia Lian smiled softly, looked at the Supreme Emperor with a slightly scrutinizing look, and spoke leisurely.
"My lord, what do you think of making me a king?"
Faint age spots have begun to appear on the old face of the Supreme Emperor. Today, this supreme human being who has enjoyed power all his life is already aging, and his end is not far away.
Seeing this, Jia Lian couldn't help but sigh secretly.
If this person really disappears, given Emperor Baode's temperament, he may not be able to continue to live in harmony with him.
It seems it’s time for the Jia family to move out, but...
The old lady has enjoyed the blessings in Daqing her whole life. I am afraid she has become accustomed to the life in Shenjing City, and her sisters...
"Become a king? Okay, it's rare for you kid to want anything, just a throne. With your contributions over the years, you have already accumulated enough merit.
However, I am curious, what is your purpose of specifically asking for a throne?"
The face of the Supreme Emperor was full of teasing, and an inexplicable look flashed across his slightly narrowed eyes.
"Hehe~ The main reason is that my cousin is getting older. After all, she is my aunt's daughter. I don't want to let her marry outside in the future, so..."
Having said this, Jia Lian couldn't help but feel a slight heat on his face.
The Supreme Emperor was speechless, not expecting this guy to give such a reason at all.
However, he suddenly remembered the report sent by the Imperial City Department during this period, and took a closer look at Jia Lian's expression. It really didn't look like he was lying.
Also, this boy has never played tricks in front of him. He is disdainful and unwilling to stop.
In this way, the old emperor, who had been in charge of the world for more than a century, put down his doubts, temporarily of course.
In fact, this person is also hesitant. After all, he knows his own body well.
Bystanders knew clearly that Jia Lian could vaguely sense the thoughts of Emperor Baode, not to mention the Supreme Emperor.
Although he suppressed and adjusted in secret for so many years, he could not change the situation.
As an emperor, it is normal for Emperor Baode to have the ambition to control everything. Otherwise, he would definitely not be called a qualified emperor, and he would not be worthy of the imperial mentality taught by the royal family since childhood.
It has been more than ten years since Emperor Baode boarded the plane, and his throne has long been stable. Even if the Supreme Emperor wanted to do something at this time, he was already powerless.
Then help Emperor Baode to attack Jia Lian?
In recent years, all the forces under Jia Lian, not only the East China Sea Chamber of Commerce, but also the Personal Guards, have never deliberately covered up the Imperial City Division.
What the Aether Emperor learned was that there were more than twenty beings in the Qing soldiers of the Rongguo Mansion alone.
Such exaggerated strength has long been beyond the range of the entire Daqing Dynasty, and even the Supreme Emperor is helpless.
It is true that the speed of expansion of power under Jia Xiaozi is too exaggerated.
Thinking about it this way, Emperor Baode was not stupid. How could he catch Jia Lian and refuse to let him go?
It's just jealousy at work.
While the Supreme Emperor was thinking to himself, Jia Lian took a few steps forward. Under the watchful eyes of the eunuch beside the old emperor, he reached out and gently put his hand on his wrist.
fine!
Jia Lian breathed a sigh of relief. Although the situation was not very optimistic, it was not the worst.
If you take care of it carefully, there won't be any big problems within three to five years.
If I think of some more ways to use the spiritual objects of the "game world" for this old man, I should be able to survive for another ten years... right?
Ten years is enough time to complete the original timeline no matter what.
By the way, how long did the old lady of the Jia family live?
But given the current situation, it shouldn't be a big problem for the old lady to live another twenty or thirty years.
Until then……
That’s all, let’s take a step at a time.
Jia Lian joked and chatted with the Emperor for a long time, declined the Emperor's invitation to stay for dinner, and then left the palace and went home with a relaxed look.
The royal meals in the palace, especially in Longshou Palace, are all kinds of medicated meals supervised by the imperial doctors all year round. The taste is really not as good as at home, so it’s okay not to eat it.
[Jia Lian's Army] destroyed nearly forty of the most powerful men in the European countries. This incident caused an uproar throughout the Daqing Dynasty.
What, how can a strong person in that realm be called a legend?
Those who are innately strong are called masters, and those who are innately strong are called legends, which is just right!
The next day, "Daqing News" suddenly published the story about the Battle of the Seven Islands in Mumbai, which made countless people amazed and excited!
The people who were amazed were naturally aware of the martial arts possessed by the innate masters. In previous years, such powerful men were almost the limit of combat power in the world.
But in recent years, news about innateness has appeared one after another. This time, there has been a large-scale cluster war among top powerhouses!
Think about it again, the overseas European countries can actually mobilize more than forty legendary warriors to cross the ocean and come to the East, it is simply terrifying!
If it weren't for the man from Duke Rong's mansion, so many legendary barbarian forces coming to Daqing would turn the world upside down in an instant, and even Shenzhou Lu Chen wouldn't know...
What I am excited about is that the "Daqing News" clearly stated that with the demise of the legendary countries of Europe in large numbers, even the strongest English will never be able to maintain such a strong colonial power.
If the other side is weak, then our side will be strong!
Also, when the enemy retreats, we advance!
The colonies of the European countries have a lot of fertile land. Although Tianzhu has made it clear that it will belong to the Duke of Rongguo, there is a vast land called Africa further away, which is still an unclaimed land.
Although the journey is far away, that place is even the hometown of Kunlun Nu. Although it is said that the weather in that ghost place is extremely hot all year round, it is a territory that can be completely owned by oneself!
This kind of temptation is unparalleled for flower growers.
As for America, the royal family has already clearly targeted it there, so it’s okay not to talk about it.
After countless forces that boasted some strength got the news, they all fell into a carnival.
Many people are very interested in the fact that the European countries can support such a large number of legendary strong men. It is said that the Age of Discovery began hundreds of years ago.
Is it because of this that the Western barbarians were able to obtain huge resources and support such a large number of peerless strong men?
You must know that there are already more than forty Europa legends who came from the expedition, so there is a high probability that the number of strong men of the same level in their hometown will not be lower than this number!
How could such a terrifying number of top-level experts not scare people and not make people yearn for them?
Based on the sense of crisis that countless insightful people felt at this time, countless stubborn and conservative forces finally had a new attitude towards the policy of opening up the sea.
Coupled with the various temptations Jia Lian deliberately released through "Daqing News", it must have been the ultimate guide for civil forces to expand overseas.
And as Jia Lian's decree to be crowned king came out, the discussion about this series of events reached a climax!
On this day, the rare middle door of Rongguo Gongfu, the top noble residence in Shenjing City, was opened wide. Early in the morning, countless servants were extremely busy and began to clean and decorate.
Not long after, the old lady was unusually decked out in top-grade imperial clothes. The long hair accessories alone weighed five or six pounds, which was really embarrassing for the old lady.
However, the old lady was radiant at the moment and did not show any signs of fatigue due to the increased weight.
When the eunuch from the palace led a large group of people to enter from the middle gate, the Rongguo Mansion had already set up incense tables, fruits, etc. according to the rules.
But Jia Lian was a little surprised by the person who came to promulgate the decree. He was wearing a python robe and uniform, with a smile on his face, and he looked very handsome, but his identity made people a little complicated.
This is none other than the Prince of Yizhong County - Yang Zhao!
The Supreme Emperor and Emperor Baode actually asked this man to come to convey the decree, obviously hoping to gain some favors from him!
It was easy for the Supreme Emperor to understand, after all, the old man always loved Yuan Sun, but how could Emperor Baode give benefits to Yi Zhong so easily?
But at this time, Jia Lian had no time to delve into the matter, so he had to quickly follow the procedures and lead everyone in the house to kneel down in front of the incense table to listen to the decree.
"The emperor is destined to be transported by heaven, and the edict says:..."
In short, Jia Lian, as an outstanding representative of the noble military ministers, has made great achievements this time.
In order to raise this merit, the emperor decided to confer the title of king on Jia Lian after discussing with the Supreme Emperor!
King of the opposite sex!
Titled "Tang"!
He was also granted permission to open a government office and establish a feudal country on his own.
"boom!"
Such an excessive reward immediately shocked the old lady. For a moment, she didn't even know whether this was a blessing or a curse.
But seeing Jia Lian and Prince Yizhong chatting and smiling after announcing their decree, it didn't look like anything was going on.
The old lady was a little worried in her heart, but it didn't show on her face at all. She was so happy that everyone in the house started to celebrate.
The Rongguo Mansion was full of celebrations, and there was an endless stream of relatives and friends who came to congratulate you. The entire Jia family in Shenjing was also honored.
In Rongxi Hall, Jia Lian and Prince Yizhong sat one after another. The two of them were full of politeness...and strangeness.
After the two exchanged pleasantries, the atmosphere became a little awkward. Fortunately, Qin Keqing appeared on the stage and staged a touching scene of brother and sister recognition with Prince Yizhong.
Although Yi Zhong may not be somewhat sincere, Jia Lian can see that Qin Keqing is somewhat serious.
Yes, after all, he is a biological brother by blood, although he has the same father but different mother...
Jia Lian sighed inwardly, what can he do, this is his own wife.
Fortunately, what Prince Yi Zhong requested was not difficult for him. To a certain extent, it was extremely beneficial to his plan to open up the sea.
What's more, Jia Lian actually just didn't like this guy in the past, but he never really had any grudges.
That's all, I'm taking advantage of this guy...
In fact, Prince Yizhong knew Qin Keqing's identity from the moment she entered the royal family again. However, due to various reasons, he did not come forward to recognize her sister in the end.
The relationship with Jia Lian is naturally like that.
In addition, the founding fathers headed by Rong Guofu have always been lukewarm or even alienated from Yang Zhao.
How could such an attitude satisfy the arrogant Prince Yi Zhong? Although he tried to win over him several times, he gave up these useless efforts long ago after seeing no results.
According to the original timeline, the founders of the country were really in decline. Only the Niu family, the Duke of Zhenguo, could barely maintain their family status, not to mention the Jia family.
But at this moment, especially after experiencing the hardships of the Annan War, King Yi Zhong finally grew up a lot and truly realized the difficulty of conquering a foreign country alone.
At this moment, he finally corrected his mentality and asked for today's job from the Supreme Emperor. For this reason, he even bowed his head and reached a tacit understanding with Emperor Baode.
This means that Prince Yizhong will completely give up the throne of Daqing as emperor in the future, at least publicly, and will focus all his attention and energy overseas.
In exchange for some support from Emperor Baode, Emperor Baode agreed because his five princes were getting older...
There are five sons, but there is only one dragon chair.
In the future, my son will also need to go overseas to develop his style, so it may not be a good thing to have a direct cousin to explore the way first.
This was the consensus reached after Jia Lian left the palace that day and the Supreme Emperor summoned Emperor Baode. The father and son had a rare heart-to-heart talk and talked in secret late into the night.
The so-called imperial tricks are ultimately nothing more than political tricks.
And the art of politics is compromise!
Now that it has been determined that Jia Lian cannot be eliminated, the only option left is to cooperate with him or even become one of his own!
It was not that Emperor Baode was willing to change his mentality, but had to change, so the situation was just stronger than others.
Not only that, after the Rongguo Mansion received the order, the old lady and Jia Lian entered the palace to express their gratitude, and were received by the Supreme Emperor and the Queen Mother in two places respectively.
But unlike the Queen Mother, she actually tried to test the marriage of the Sanchun sisters of the Jia family to the old lady in words...
"Going back to your Majesty, I still have three granddaughters, a grandniece and a niece at home, but they are all still young and have not been married yet."
The old lady originally thought that the Queen Mother was just having sex, but she didn't want to:
"Oh, that's a coincidence. Not long ago, my queen's daughter-in-law was talking about how my eldest grandson would be fifteen after the Chinese New Year this year, and she was worrying about what kind of princess to choose for him in the next few years...
…”
this?
The old lady was suddenly confused. The grandson of the emperor is 15 years old?
As soon as these words came out of the Queen Mother's mouth, the old lady already knew who she was talking about.
However, with the current status of her family, I am afraid that it is not appropriate to fall into a fight for the right to inherit the throne too early. What does the Queen Mother think?
But since this person said it in front of the old lady and at such a good time, it was obvious that she did not mean it alone.
There is a high probability that both emperors have this intention, so...
The old lady's heartbeat could not help but accelerate slightly. If the great emperor's grandson, the eldest son of the current Emperor Baode, marries his granddaughter...
Fortunately, the old lady has been a director for many years and was not overwhelmed by today's sudden surprise. She understood that Jia Lian attached great importance to the marriage of her granddaughter and had not really expressed her position.
But he still said: "I'm not afraid of your mother-in-law's jokes. I'm old and oblivious. Since my husband left, I have stopped paying attention to all the big and small things in the family."
As for the marriages of several granddaughters, Yuanchun is from the second child's family and is also the eldest daughter in the mansion. She married into the Li family the year before last. The remaining Yingchun is just a concubine, but she is deeply loved by her father and brother.
It was decided to welcome the Spring Festival only to recruit a son-in-law but not to marry anyone.
