Chapter 820 The dragon boat succeeded and went to Yongjiang
At midnight.
The Hundred Generals' Banquet was over. Emperor Chu withdrew from Ningxiang Palace and found that Zhuge Liang was still waiting outside the palace.
"Kong Ming, it's late at night, why haven't you left yet?"
Emperor Chu's confused voice sounded, and he walked towards Bi Ning Palace. Zhuge Liang followed closely behind him and said, "Your Majesty, I have come here specifically to congratulate you on the birth of your prince."
"Wei Chen observes the sky at night and discovers that the prince is the overlord of heaven and earth. He deduces that if the two masters seize the world, the world will be unified."
"My emperor will rule the world in the future. The arrival of the prince will bring unfavorable fortune to the emperor. This is the blessing of Wu Chu."
Born with a strange phenomenon, Kong Ming observed the stars at night and discovered that the prince was different. Emperor Chu did not find it strange.
When the time comes, the prophecy he puts forward makes people feel miraculous: if the two masters seize the world, the world will be unified.
"Kong Ming, Chen'er has just been born. I have no special requirements for him. When he is five years old, I will leave him to you for training."
"I am very frightened. If I can teach His Highness the Prince, I will give you all my money to teach him, and I will live up to the great trust of the Emperor."
Emperor Chu raised his hand to help Zhuge Liang, turned around, looked at Xiao Guizi, and said, "Send a chariot to escort Master Zhuge back home."
After Zhuge Liang left, Emperor Chu strode towards Bining Palace, thinking constantly in his mind as he walked.
The prince's successors include Kong Ming, Liu Bowen, Wu, Zhao Yun, Ye Gucheng, and Li Yuanba. I believe his future achievements will not be too low.
Arriving at Bining Palace, Shangguan Bangning had already rested. When the maids outside the palace saw the arrival of Emperor Chu, they all bowed and saluted.
Emperor Chu waved his hand to the palace maids to step back, opened the palace door and entered. Shangguan Bangning was presiding over the Hundred Generals Banquet tonight, and he must have been very tired.
The gauze curtain is fluttering, the moonlight is shining, Shangguan Bangning and Qin Yi are like immortals on the bed, elegant and outstanding, just like the moonlight fairy, lovable.
Emperor Chu felt guilty. Seeing that he was sleeping soundly, he stood up and turned around to leave, only to hear a resentful voice coming from behind.
"You're here, just stay!"
"Having been in the Chu Palace for half a year, the emperor came to the Bining Palace no more than five times, but never stayed overnight. Could it be that the friendship between you and me is so weak?"
"Since my beloved concubine has not gone to bed, I will naturally stay!"
Shangguan Bangning came to Emperor Chu wearing a light gauze and holding a lamp. He gently raised his jade hand and began to change his clothes.
"The Emperor has a double happiness today and has been busy for a long day. I ordered someone to prepare hot water for the Emperor to take a bath."
That night Emperor Chu stayed in the Bining Palace, first bathing with Mei, and then the two of them turned upside down, and the beautiful melody echoed in the palace.
.............
The next day.
In the early morning, Emperor Chu glanced at the sleeping beauty, got up and left Bi Ning Palace. After last night, Emperor Chu finally understood the meaning of a little separation over a wedding.
Just as he walked out of the palace, Xiao Guizi stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, Master Zhou Yu has received news from Yongjiang City that the dragon boat has been successfully built. I asked the Emperor when he will go to Yongjiang City to check the launch of the dragon boat."
"The dragon boat was built successfully!"
"Zhou Yu has indeed lived up to my expectations. I sent an order to inform Zhuge Liang, Zhao Yun, Guan Yu, Lu Bu, Ran Min, and Li Yuanba to set off in the afternoon and follow me to Yongjiang City."
Yongjiang City is the city closest to the East China Sea in Chu State. The people here basically go to sea to make a living by fishing, and there is also some freight turnover at sea.
Since Zhou Yu, Qi Jiguang, and Zhou Yu arrived, all the people in the city who had not joined the navy went to Zhou Yu to help forge dragon boats.
Emperor Chu decided to go to Yongjiang City to personally try out dragon boat launches. If the experiment was successful, once the navy training was successful, Chu's plan for foreign wars would be implemented.
After Xiao Guizi stood up and left, Emperor Chu turned around and walked towards Ningxiang Palace. Yongjiang City was thousands of miles away from the imperial capital. It was a long journey and he needed to inform Nangong Ning in advance that the child had just been born.
It was already noon when he left Ningxiang Palace. Nangong Xi left Diao Chan and Chen Yuanyuan with Emperor Chu, hoping that they could go to Yongjiang City with Emperor Chu and take care of them along the way.
After bidding farewell to Nangong Xi, Emperor Chu took Diao Chan and Chen Yuanyuan away from Ningxiang Palace and walked outside the palace.
"Your Majesty, I'll go down and change my clothes first. I hope your Majesty will wait outside the palace wall for a while."
Diao Chan has always been an eccentric person. Emperor Chu didn't know what she wanted to do, so he just saw her dragging Chen Yuanyuan away with her lotus steps.
"Xiao Guizi, I am going to Yongjiang City. All affairs in the imperial capital are decided by Fang Xuanling, Liu Bowen and Di Renjie. If there is anything particularly important, let the secret guards come at any time to send news."
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I know what to do!"
Emperor Chu glanced at Xiao Guizi, his eyes full of approval. At present, Chu State unified the south of the East China Sea, and all the state capitals were undergoing intensive construction and development. He believed that under the management of Liu Bowen, Fang Xuanling, and Di Renjie, there would be no
A huge mess occurs.
Arrive outside the palace walls.
Zhuge Liang, Zhao Yun, Lu Bu, Guan Yu, Ran Min, and Li Yuanba had been waiting for a long time. Emperor Chu strode forward and saw that there were ten thousand soldiers under their command.
"Zilong, Ran Min, Baima Yicong and the elite of the Yue family army are staying in the imperial city. This time we can go to Yongjiang City together. You don't need to lead too many soldiers."
"South of the East China Sea is the whole world of Wuchu. Who dares to be so arrogant? I just take this opportunity to take you all to appreciate the scenery of Wuchu and see how the construction and development of various places are going."
"You will eventually understand!"
"You will eventually understand!"
Generals Zhao Yun and Ran Min turned around and waved, and the elite soldiers behind them left in an orderly manner and disappeared under the palace wall.
A few moments.
When Diao Chan and Chen Yuanyuan arrived, they saw two handsome young men walking in the distance. They wore green clothes and folded fans, walked lightly, and looked like suave noble gentlemen.
If the Emperor of Chu and the generals had not known their identities, they would never have been able to tell at first glance that they were women.
"I've met the emperor, I've met Zhuge's military advisor, I've met all the generals!"
"Greetings to the two empresses!"
"Chan'er, is this your evil idea again?"
"Okay, let's set off immediately and head to Yongle City!"
Emperor Chu jumped onto his horse, and all the generals mounted their horses one after another. The rumble of horse hooves sounded, and everyone disappeared under the palace wall.
As the sun sets in the west, tired birds return to their nests, like a bloody setting sun covering the sky and earth, a group of people gallop on their horses on the official road in the wilderness.
"Zilong, you must enter Huwei City before the curfew. We will stay overnight and continue our journey tomorrow."
Huwei City is the closest city to the imperial capital and is also the second most prosperous city in Chu State. Because the imperial city is overcrowded, it still cannot accommodate it even after expansion.
Many wealthy families had no choice but to settle for the next best thing and move their families to Huwei City. Although it was not as good as the imperial capital at the feet of the emperor, it was built close to the imperial city and could still receive the blessing of the emperor's power.
Therefore, Huwei City became the second largest city in Chu State, and its prosperity was no less than that of Huxiao City.
It was just dusk, and the long street was already full of people and bustling, and the shops of all sizes were even more crowded.
at this time.
Emperor Chu and his party had just arrived at the gate of the city and were waiting to enter the city. Suddenly there was a rumble of horse hooves behind them. Everyone looked back and saw the horses galloping forward like lightning, with no intention of stopping. (To be continued)
