Chapter 222 Good news comes one after another, and border troubles are relieved
Inside Nanmu Castle.
Lu Baifeng looked at the letter coming from the south, his expression gloomy and uncertain for a while.
Not only the Haili army retreated, but the Yuwu Royal Court and the Sanmiao Royal Court also withdrew their troops one after another. This situation was something he had not expected before.
For Nanmu City, the retreat of the Haili army seems to be a good thing, at least there is no need for them to fight with the Haili army, but for Lu Baifeng, this is definitely not a good thing.
Because Nanmu Castle has lost even the opportunity to put the icing on the cake.
The border troubles in the southwest of Dali have been completely resolved. It can be foreseen that in the next few years, or even more than ten years, the three southern barbarian countries will never dare to invade Dali again.
In this way, what is the significance of Nanmu Castle’s existence?
Today's Dali is no longer the original Dali. In the original Dali, there were six holy places that fought against the court. But now the six holy places have fallen apart and can no longer fight against the court.
Moreover, the eldest lady of Beiyuan City is already the queen. With this close relationship, Beiyuan City will definitely not resist Dali, but what about their Nanmu City?
He didn't get anything, didn't say anything, and made a fuss. He was not a human being inside and out.
Leaning back on the chair, Lu Baifeng closed her eyes slightly, with thousands of thoughts in her mind.
"Get ready, go to Kyoto!"
He said in a low voice.
Things in the world are unpredictable, and he didn't expect what was happening now.
At that time, he walked out of Nanmu City, arrogant and full of ambitions.
But now he realizes that so-called ambition is just ignorant arrogance.
…
Nanyang City.
Lan Yuehou also received the news that the Sanmiao Royal Court had withdrawn its troops.
However, he had expected all this, and although he was still a little surprised, he was not particularly shocked.
"Finally I can go back to Beijing!"
He stood up, walked under the eaves of the lobby, and looked at the clear sky, with a hidden gleam in his eyes.
More than two years have passed since the old emperor drove him out of Kyoto.
Recalling all the arrangements the old emperor had made, he couldn't help but feel a little depressed.
He and the old emperor were neither monarchs nor ministers, nor friends. They were more like a pair of collaborators.
He was still in awe of the old emperor from the bottom of his heart.
Although there are many emperors in the Qiongtian Sea, there are not many emperors as talented and strategic as the old emperor.
Dali couldn't get out of the spiritual wasteland, not because the old emperor was incompetent, but because it was really difficult for a dynasty to get out of the spiritual wasteland.
Recalling the past with the old emperor, he couldn't help but feel a little regretful.
It is a pity that the old emperor was born in this spiritual wasteland. If the old emperor had been in the Qiongtian Sea, he would definitely have become a holy emperor.
Thinking of the current Li Emperor Qin Wei again, he felt disgusted in his heart.
He felt that Qin Wei seemed to be more difficult to deal with than the old emperor.
He saw the majestic ambition in Qin Wei, the kind of ambition that is fearless of everything in the world and dares to challenge everything.
But some things have to be faced eventually.
The Awakening Fruit Tree is about to mature, and even if Qin Wei doesn't let him go back to the capital, he will rush back to the capital.
"Master Marquis, everything is ready and ready to go at any time!"
The old man came to him and said softly.
Lan Yuehou thought for a while and said: "Send a message to Ninghai City and let the ship set sail back!"
The old man nodded and asked, "Would you like to tell your family about the situation here?"
Every time the Awakening Fruit tree matures, the Dongfang Family sends people from the Qiongtian Sea Area to pick it, and then brings it directly back to the family.
Lan Yuehou said: "I have written everything that needs to be said in the letter. As for whether those guys believe it or not, I don't know."
Not to mention that Qin Wei hasn't done anything yet, even if he has done something, the Dongfang family probably won't pay attention to it.
The Dongfang family would not pay attention to a dynasty in a spiritual wasteland.
Moreover, Lan Yuehou's thirty-year guarding period has expired. When the Awakening Fruit Tree matures, his mission has been completed. As for the follow-up, he no longer cares about his affairs.
He could completely leave Dali and go to the vast Qiongtian Sea.
As for whether the Dongfang family would punish him, he didn't care.
The Dongfang family is a very large family, and he is just a young man who is not favored. Otherwise, he would not be sent to this spiritual wasteland, where he would stay for thirty years.
To be honest, his feelings for the Dongfang family are not as deep as his feelings for Dali.
Recalling those distant and unfamiliar memories, Dongfang Yue had an unspeakable emotion in his heart.
Thirty years!
A whole thirty years!
He left home for thirty years and came to this spiritual wasteland to guard a spiritual awakening fruit tree.
"Maybe I shouldn't go back!"
He murmured softly.
The voice was very low, but the old man next to me still heard it.
The old man's expression froze and he said softly: "Young Master should go back."
"What are you going to do?" Dongfang Yue asked a little confused.
"Young master has not gone to worship the master and the old lady for thirty years!" the old man said softly.
Dongfang Yue's whole body trembled slightly, "You are right, I should go back."
"Get ready and go back to Kyoto first!"
His voice became hoarse at some point.
He no longer had the freedom and ease of the past, but instead had a sense of dejection.
…
The first year of Shenghua.
Dali has opened a new chapter.
After Qin Wei ascended the throne, the Ministry of Rites named the reign "Shenghua". This was the expectation of Qin Wei by the ministers of the Ministry of Rites, and also the expectation of Qin Wei by all the people in the world.
We look forward to Qin Wei opening up a new dynasty with great prosperity.
The twentieth day of the first lunar month.
The flavor of the New Year in Kyoto has gradually dissipated, but the joy in the hearts of the people has not faded.
In the past month, too many things happened, and good news from all sides continued to spread to Kyoto.
On December 13, the 46th year of Takeori, the northern frontier army broke through the Rong camp and annihilated 200,000 Rong troops.
On December 17, 100,000 Rong cavalry attacked Jinshan City. Jinshan City was defended by 20,000 soldiers for three days. Supported by 50,000 garrison troops from Beizhou, the 100,000 Rong cavalry had no choice but to retreat.
On December 20th, Situ Changkong, the lord of Beiyuan City, personally led an army of 100,000 Sky Eagles, together with Zhou Hai, the commander-in-chief of the former left army, to attack the Wuhuan capital over a thousand miles. The Wuhuan capital was captured in just one day, and Wuhuan was defeated.
Almost all the princes and nobles in the royal court were captured.
On the same day, the Fire Worshiping Court launched an attack on Lingwei Pass.
On December 29, one hundred thousand corpses attacked Lingwei Pass.
In the early morning of the next day, dozens of sacrifices from the Fire Worshiping Court were killed by Zhao Gao, and all 100,000 corpses were wiped out. The defenders of Lingwei Pass launched a counterattack, united with the three royal courts, and destroyed the camp of the Fire Worshiping Court.
After more than ten days, the three southern barbarian kingdoms withdrew their troops one after another. Xue Yi united with the three royal courts in the Western Regions to win consecutive battles, all the way from Lingweiguan to the capital of the Fire Worship King.
Just yesterday, news of the Fire Worshiping Court reached Kyoto again.
The court and the people of Kyoto were full of joy.
Even the imperial city was filled with an atmosphere of joy.
Inside the Imperial Study Room of Shengtian Palace.
Qin Wei looked at the good news coming from the Fire Worshiping Court, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly.
Next to him, Eunuch Lu, who was always stern and unsmiling, also showed a bright smile today, but his old, dissatisfied face looked a bit ugly when he smiled.
"Your Majesty is wise!" Eunuch Lu rarely praised Qin Wei.
"How do I compare to Grandpa Huang?" Qin Wei said with a smile.
Eunuch Lu's expression froze and he didn't say a word for a long time.
"Hahaha~~"
Qin Wei laughed.
He just liked to see this old guy shriveled up.
Xiao Shunzi next to him was also snickering.
Qin Wei patted Eunuch Lu on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will do better than Grandpa Huang! Dali will also become stronger and stronger!"
"I believe in Your Majesty!" Eunuch Lu said solemnly.
Before, he doubted whether Qin Wei could be a good emperor, but now he no longer doubts it.
Qin Wei stood up and stretched.
"Inform me, there will be a small court meeting in the afternoon, and I order the cabinet ministers, the left and right governors of the Dudu Mansion, the six ministers, the commander of the Zhenwu Department, and Wu Zheng of the Yanwu Pavilion to attend."
"Shen Fu and Qi Chao will also participate."
He ordered.
Eunuch Lu and Xiao Shunzi responded quickly.
Afterwards.
Qin Wei left Shengtian Hall and came to Fengyi Hall in the harem.
Now he is the emperor. Although he does not have three palaces and six courtyards, he still has a queen and four concubines. Qin Wei is a man who is exposed to both rain and dew. He will come to Fengyi Palace every other day, and the other concubines
Then he favored everyone in turn and did not neglect anyone.
However, he rarely came to the harem during the day and spent most of his time in Shengtian Hall.
"I have something I want to discuss with you!"
Qin Wei sat at the square table in the room, and the old Eunuch Luo immediately arranged for Gong E to serve tea.
"What's the matter?" Situ Qianxue looked at him in surprise.
"About Beiyuan City!" Qin Wei looked serious.
Situ Qianxue's expression changed slightly. She lowered her head and remained silent for a while, then said: "Your Majesty, Beiyuan City is my home after all."
She didn't know how Qin Wei wanted to treat Beiyuan City, but since Qin Wei mentioned it, he would definitely change the current situation.
Qin Wei held her jade hand and said softly: "Don't worry, I won't force it. I still hope that Beiyuan City can take the initiative to surrender!"
Situ Qianxue frowned, she already understood what Qin Wei meant.
In the past, Beiyuan City and Dali were separated from each other. Although they relied on Dali, they were independent from Dali.
Qin Wei obviously wanted to completely incorporate Beiyuan City into Dali.
"I am willing to persuade my father!" Situ Qianxue said softly.
She naturally does not want a conflict to break out between Dali and Beiyuan City. Although she does not interfere in government affairs and rarely pays attention to things outside the imperial city, she knows that Dali is now very powerful and can crush Beiyuan City.
the point.
She also understood Qin Wei's thoughts, so she was willing to come forward to persuade him.
Qin Wei smiled brightly and said: "After a while, I will recruit City Lord Situ to come to the capital. Then you can meet me first."
The problem of the Holy Land must be resolved, not only in Beiyuan City, but also in Nanmu City, as well as the Qiyuan Sect, which has already surrendered to him.
Uncontrolled forces are not allowed within Dali, and forces that threaten Dali are not allowed to exist around Dali.
"Um!"
Situ Qianxue responded in a nutty tone.
Seeing her well-behaved look, Qin Wei couldn't help but feel a little moved, and couldn't help but move his hands up and down.
Eunuch Luo glanced at it and quickly called the eunuchs and palace ladies in the room to retreat.
"His Majesty!"
The hot palm made Situ Qianxue feel a little uncomfortable.
"Ahem~~"
"It's getting late, let's take a lunch break!"
Qin Wei'an couldn't bear the heat in his heart and directly picked up Situ Qianxue and walked onto the bed in the bedroom.
"His Majesty!"
Situ Qianxue's cheeks turned red and she couldn't help but murmur.
Although the two of them were considered an old couple, Situ Qianxue could never change her shyness.
