Chapter 369 Long Live
"The movement...why is the movement so loud?"
"I heard that all the people in Qinzhou are excited."
Shang Rui was a little dumbfounded when he heard this.
It was not until he was stunned for a moment that he murmured: "The King of Qin, but the prince, the prestige in Qin is so much greater than that of the emperor, am I still the king of the world..."
Dong Hua was silent.
All the imperial ministers also sighed secretly.
Once upon a time, no one among these people looked down upon the Qin people, and no one looked down upon Xiao Yuan.
But now, facing the King of Qin, no one is as silent as a cicada.
And this time Xiao Yuan's military parade is an unprecedented event. It is not only a big move, but also like releasing some kind of signal.
A few days later, the country was declared.
Prime Minister Yao Tingyu bowed and said:
"Your Majesty, according to detailed reports, after King Yan proclaimed himself emperor, King Qin's first action was to review the troops in Qinzhou and conduct a large-scale military parade."
"Well, King Qin must not be able to sit still, otherwise, the price of the emperor in his hands will drop."
King Xuan said something and then added: "Send an order to Yan Qi and ask him to gather his troops and mobilize them frequently to the northern front."
"What does the king mean..." Yao Tingyu asked in a condensed voice.
"Since the King of Qin is reviewing his troops, I, Xuan Guo, will also respond and put some things out." King Xuan said.
"In this case, the king is preparing to join the war?"
King Xuan smiled slightly and said nothing more.
Lingguo.
King Ling also received the news. Without saying a word, he directly issued a royal edict stating that Ling Kingdom had no relationship with Yan Kingdom and would never stand together with the rebels.
To King Yan, this was just a trick on him, but to King Ling, it had achieved the desired goal.
Liang Kingdom.
After hearing the news of the Qin Kingdom, King Liang pointed directly at the court meeting hall and said:
"Immediately send an envoy to Qin and ask the King of Qin when he will attack the rebels! I, the Liang Kingdom, will be the first to form an alliance!"
"The thief is so bold that he dares to usurp the throne. Who does King Yan really think he is!"
Why did King Liang react like this? It was because he had cooperated with Xiao Yuan to destroy Jin and tasted the sweetness of supporting war with war.
This opportunity was even better than last time, so there was no way he was willing to miss it.
At this time, there was no need for Prince Liang to send envoys to ask, in fact Xiao Yuan had already started making preparations for the war.
As the saying goes, before the soldiers and horses are moved, the grain and grass go first, and the war has not started yet, Liu Yuzhi has received the king's order and started to prepare grain, grass and ordnance, and transported them in batches to the front line area where the Qin army left the customs.
All the movements of Qin State mean that war is coming. Even if there is no alliance with any country, Xiao Yuan must attack Yan State!
Before the war begins, there is no doubt that Xiao Yuan needs the imperial flag in Shang Rui's hand, which is an edict from the emperor, so that he can be justified.
On this day, Qin Palace, Chaoyi Hall.
Xiao Yuan hung the king's sword on his waist and strode into the palace. After entering the palace, the imperial ministers lined up on both sides. They all hunched their shoulders and bowed their heads and said nothing. He directly raised his hands to Shang Rui and said straight to the point:
"Your Majesty, your Majesty must already know about King Yan's rebellion and usurpation of the throne, right?"
"This, yes, that traitor is hateful! He is tampering with the country and disrupting our country, King Qin." Shang Rui said sadly.
He is the emperor and the royal family is orthodox. How can he not be angry when he sees others proclaiming themselves emperor? No matter how coward he is, he cannot bear this.
But he had no choice but to worry.
When Xiao Yuan heard this, he said seriously: "Then please issue an edict, in the name of the Emperor, to inform the world and invite all countries to raise their troops to defeat the thieves!"
"But, but...but will the monarchs of other countries listen to me?" Shang Rui said worriedly, still somewhat self-aware.
"Your Majesty, just issue the edict! I, you and the rebels are at odds with each other! You will be the first to send troops!" Xiao Yuan said in a high-sounding voice.
But hearing these words in Shang Rui's ears undoubtedly gave the latter hope!
No matter how much Xiao Yuan tried to intimidate him, he still recognized him as the emperor, but King Yan was different. He directly usurped the Shang family and changed his name to emperor.
Comparing the two, Shang Rui even felt grateful. He stood up in a hurry and said excitedly: "Really, is it true, King Qin?"
"Of course!" Xiao Yuan answered seriously.
"It's great! It's so great! I...I don't even know what to say!"
Shang Rui was so excited that he kept saying: "The King of Qin protects the empire and protects the country from danger. He is really the pillar of the world!"
"Your Majesty's words are serious, I am ashamed of myself." Xiao Yuan replied, and then said: "Your Majesty, please issue an edict as soon as possible. If the traitors are not eliminated for a day, the world will not be at peace."
"Yes, what King Qin said is so right. I'm going to write now. I'm going to write now. Quick! Bring me the pen and ink!"
When the attendant brought the tray, Shang Rui did not hesitate at all. After unfolding a golden silk book, he dipped it in ink, picked up the pen and started writing.
After all, he was still the emperor. No matter how extravagant he was in the past, he still had writing skills. In this imperial edict, he even listed the crimes of King Yan and scolded him bloody, saying that he had no king and no father.
Rebellion...
He writes like a god, venting all his anger on it, and it flows smoothly.
After he finished writing, he put away his brush, first took the edict and looked at it, and then hurriedly said to the attendant: "Quickly, take it to the King of Qin for review."
"No." The eunuch responded, took the edict, walked down and handed it to Xiao Yuan respectfully.
The latter unfolded and after a brief glance, Shang Rui couldn't wait to ask: "Does the King of Qin think the edict is feasible?"
"Well... okay." Xiao Yuan looked at it, confirmed it was correct, and nodded.
"Then, when does King Qin plan to send troops?" Shang Rui became nervous again, fearing that Xiao Yuan was just showing off.
"Military orders will be issued tomorrow!" Xiao Yuan said directly.
"Okay, okay, great." Shang Rui nodded repeatedly: "Then, I'll leave it to Aiqing."
"Where, it is the responsibility of the minister to defeat the rebels, your Majesty does not need to worry."
Xiao Yuan, in the name of the royal family, issued an imperial edict and began to send troops to fight against the rebellion.
On the morning of the next day, in the large square inside the Qin Palace, countless soldiers of the Qin Army formed two square formations, with a passage in the middle and a high platform directly above them.
A majestic horn sounded.
Xiao Yuan wore royal robes, a royal crown on his head, and a Qin sword hanging on his waist. He walked between the two armies and headed straight towards the high platform.
There, the emperor Shangrui was waiting. After seeing Xiao Yuan, he hurriedly stepped forward.
"In the name of the Emperor, I confer the title of King Wu of Qin, and also command the general of the empire. I hold the sword of the Emperor and command the kings of the world to attack the rebels!"
Although these names are all false, Shang Rui can be said to be very excited.
After Xiao Yuan heard this, he turned around, facing the countless soldiers below, and drew the King of Qin Sword.
The clear and sweet sound of unsheathing sounded, and all the soldiers below began to shout in unison:
Chapter completed!
