Chapter 316: A Gentleman’s Covenant

Fosang has been a vassal state of Daqi for nearly thirty years, and its image of being ferocious and warlike is deeply rooted in people's hearts.

The most elegant and elegant young master Shen Qi in the south of the Yangtze River, Shen Guijiu, appeared to be having fun and not studying, but in fact he was learning the art of emperors.

From an early age he understood his mission.

As soon as he returned to Fosang, with the support of the Shen family, he swept through the entire royal family with thunderous power, grasped military power and political power, and secured the throne.

Mrs. Shen hinted to him to wait for the opportunity, so he kept waiting.

The moment the Zhennan Palace fell out and Fu Jing declared himself king, he knew that the time he had been waiting for had come.

Independence as a country is something worthy of celebration.

Li Xi, the king of Fosang, invited all the heroes from the world to come to Qinchuan, the royal city, to participate in the grand event.

Many envoys had just attended the enthronement ceremony of the new Emperor Daqi and rushed to Fosang without stopping.

What was a slap in the face was that Cintiq neither received the invitation nor the notification.

"He still dares to hold a grand ceremony with great fanfare. He simply doesn't take me seriously!" The emperor said with a dark face, unable to swallow his breath no matter how much he thought about it, "They have clearly sworn allegiance to the Daqi royal family."

Lord Su, who was standing with his head bowed below, rolled his eyes. He was convinced by the female general Xing of the Shen family. He said he was loyal to the royal family, but it was better to say that he was afraid of the Shen family from the beginning to the end.

From the day when there was a conflict between the royal family and the Shen family, step by step until now, it can be said to be the inevitable result.

"What do you want to do?" the emperor asked.

Thinking of Fosang's brave and capable soldiers, he felt heartbroken and aggrieved.

The heads of several ministers lowered their heads lower and lower, and no one spoke. Even Mr. Lu Guogong, who had danced the highest recently, remained silent.

The emperor said solemnly, "Da Qi's majesty must be maintained, and he cannot be allowed to ride on Da Qi's head like this."

The Secretary of the Ministry of War stood up bravely and said, "Bianguan and Beirong are in a confrontation. If Daqi uses troops to attack Fosang, he will be attacked from both sides. Daqi cannot afford a war between the two sides."

Moreover, the most powerful Fu Jiajun escaped, and Daqi's military strength was severely damaged.

The emperor's face became more and more ugly, "Then just watch him become independent?"

No one answered, and the emperor could only get angry.

It was already dark by the time the group came out of the palace.

Avoiding Lu Guogong, Su Houye couldn't help but said, "I did it myself, now I know I'm worried."

The Taifu touched his beard and asked, "What do you think, Lord Marquis?"

"See with your eyes." Mr. Su said, hating that iron cannot become steel. "The root of the disaster has already been laid in wait. Daqi may wish for more blessings."

As for the Su family, it’s time to think about a way out.

The only invitation sent to Daqi finally reached Fu Jingchao's hands.

The Shen family has already settled in Yannan.

Li Xi had a special status, and Fu Jingchao really wanted to talk to him about something, so he finally rushed to Fosang with Shen Mochen.

The whole town of Qinchuan was filled with colorful ribbons and was extremely lively.

The people of Fosang celebrated their independence with songs and dances, and cast friendly glances at the influx of outsiders.

Fu Jingchao's white hair was so conspicuous that everyone knew he was coming as soon as he entered the city.

This was his first public appearance after proclaiming himself King of Luo, and it attracted much attention.

After Li Xi received the news, he immediately sent people out to welcome him to the palace.

Fu Jingchao and a group of people went directly to the palace where Li Xi lived. Envoys from other countries immediately focused their attention on the two of them, wanting to know what they talked about.

Li Xi stood at the highest point of the royal city and watched them walk in, feeling filled with emotion.

He asked people to prepare wine on the tower.

Shen Mochen and Fu Jingchao climbed up the tower step by step under the leadership of the guards.

Li Xi stood in the wind, turned around and said softly, "Long time no see."

The once rebellious Master Shen Qi now stood there quietly, already possessing a somewhat domineering aura.

Shen Mochen smiled and said, "Congratulations, go back to the wine."

Fu Jingchao said softly, "Congratulations to Fosang for its independence."

The three of them sat down on the tower and looked up at the great rivers and mountains of Fosang.

Li Xi first asked about the situation of the Shen family and the Shen family. Shen Mochen told him in detail and told him not to worry.

Fu Jingchao listened quietly on the sidelines, and waited until the two of them had finished talking about old times before getting down to business.

"I wonder what King Fosang thinks of Daqi?"

Although Fu Jingchao had hatred for the Daqi royal family, he still said that the people were innocent. This was the reason why he came.

Li Xi looked at the mountains and rivers in the distance, "In the past hundred years, Fosang has never been truly peaceful. It has been constantly falling into wars."

Whether actively or passively, the mountains and rivers have always been devastated.

"If Daqi doesn't take the initiative to fight, Fosang has no preparations for a war with Daqi for the time being."

Li Xi grew up in the Shen family. The history of the Shen family is also accompanied by the rise and fall of the country. The Shen family once almost paid the price of genocide in order to maintain peace.

Li Xi was deeply affected. He cared about the world and was not a warlike person.

Fu Jingchao's eyes flashed with admiration, "Brother Li is so kind."

Li Xi laughed and looked at him seriously, "But I still hope that the Daqi royal family will be finished."

The hint couldn't be more obvious. Fu Jingchao raised his glass and touched it, all without saying anything.

This meal lasted from afternoon until dark.

Li Xi pointed at the lights of thousands of houses and the fireworks of the world, "Compared with ambition, this is what I want to protect."

For a moment, the three of them stood side by side on the tower without saying a word.

Probably due to the smell of alcohol, Li Xi became more and more candid. His character was already proud and unruly.

"King Luo, if you become the new master of Daqi in the future, I am willing to make a hundred-year agreement with you."

Fu Jingchao glanced sideways at him and said, "I would like to hear the details."

"If you are the new master of Daqi, then Fosang is willing to conclude a hundred-year agreement with Daqi to trade with each other, be mutual friends, and not start a war within a hundred years." Li Xi said solemnly.

You must know that Fosang and Daqi have always been entangled and the war continues. Almost every king wants to defeat Daqi and add Daqi's land to his own map.

"What a courage!" Fu Jingchao cheered, "If one day comes, I am willing to make a century-old agreement with Fosang."

The moonlight was the witness, and the two high-fived each other under the moonlight and made a gentleman's agreement.

If that day comes, the two countries can be guaranteed to be free from war for a hundred years, which will be a blessing to the world and the people.

As for a hundred years later, they will have turned into loess, so it is not something they should worry about.

Each generation has its own mission story, and the story a hundred years from now should be written by future generations.

Shen Mochen was a little excited on the side, "Grandma will be very happy if she knows."

Li Xi smiled and said, "Finally, I have lived up to her teachings."

This was also the reason why his father agreed to send him to the Shen family. He hoped to cultivate a different king for Fosang who could bring peace to this land and water.

Li Xi was born in Qinchuan and grew up in Jiangnan. He has feelings for both sides and does not want them to be destroyed by war.

"It's getting late, let's go back." Shen Mochen said.

Li Xi patted Shen Mochen on the shoulder, "I'm waiting for the day when our agreement comes true."
