More than a month ago, a twelve-word proverb was circulated everywhere in various countries: "The Phoenix God Star appears, the list is unified, and the Phoenix and Luo combines the Phoenix and Luo". More than a month later, it was rumored in various countries that Hanla's country used evil tricks to imprison the Phoenix God Star, which triggered a war between Tang and Song. Hanla's country wanted to force the Phoenix God Star to surrender and help him unify the list of the mainland was fully exposed.
For thousands of years, kings from all countries have been one after another, and everyone wants to achieve the great hegemony of unifying the mainland. However, no one has been able to achieve it.
Hanla's ambition to dominate other countries caused unfaithful indignation. A country whose land area accounts for more than one-third of the desert area, except for selling gold and gems for food and other substances, the agriculture and animal husbandry industry is pitifully small. Why should he be the overlord of the list of mainland?
As the saying goes, to start with anything, there must be a leader. Of course, they don’t need any leader. What they need is an excuse or reason for the war between the Tang Song Kingdom and the Hanla Kingdom, which just gave them a good reason.
It is said that when the five countries in the list of mainlands had a strong situation, the five countries had established a covenant: If anyone provoked a war first in the future, the rest of the countries had the right to jointly attack it. This is also the main reason why the list of mainlands has been able to continue peace over thousands of years.
But now, the two countries of Tang Song and Hanla are the first to destroy the alliance, which also means that the other three countries can send troops to attack them at any time.
So, Qianyue Kingdom sent troops. Just when Tang Song and Hanla were fighting fiercely, Qianyue Kingdom secretly planned and deployed troops from east to west to attack Tang Song and Hanla.
The Jin Hui Kingdom, known as the Snow Kingdom, was divided into two factions. One was led by the second prince Lan Xiaolang, and advocated assistance to the Tang and Song Kingdom; the other was led by Concubine Guan Shu and Prime Minister Dun Shuliang, and advocated assistance to the Hanla Kingdom, because the sixth princesses born by Concubine Guan Shuliang and the second daughter of Dun Shuliang, successively married the Hanla royal family.
This made Emperor Jin Yuan dilemma. Both sides were in-laws and both sides sent troops to provide assistance. What was this? Don’t end up in the end, it’s better not to do a thankless job. Emperor Jin Yuan issued a holy order, and no one would help. If anyone wanted to help, he would find a way, the royal army would not be allowed to call. If anyone violated the order, the whole family and those who were related to the relationship would all go to jail.
The Myanmar Jin State, located at the center of the list of mainland China, politely declined the military cooperation of the Qianyue State and did not send troops to aid the Tang and Song State. He just kept his troops and watched from the wall.
After Emperor Zongzheng untied his heart, he decisively issued an edict to pass the throne. On the eighth day of the 44th year of the Zongyu year, in the midst of war, the new emperor of Tang and Song ascended the throne, and did not change the year name, and continued to use Zongyu as Emperor He of Han. Emperor Zongzheng was honored as the Supreme Emperor, Empress Jue was the Empress Dowager, Concubine Lan and the four concubines were respected as the Imperial Concubine.
This is also the youngest Supreme Emperor in the history of the mainland.
Shortly after Mu Yun ascended the throne, Emperor Zongzheng called him to Duanyi's bedroom and handed him a white jade token engraved with colorful phoenixes. The colorful phoenixes on it were bright in color and realistic in image, making it a rare and excellent engraving product.
"Father, does this phoenix jade plaque have special significance?" Mu Yun asked, knowing in his heart that his father would not ask him to come alone for no reason, just to give such an exquisite jade plaque.
Emperor Zong Zheng said with a serious expression: "Yun'er, this Phoenix Token was engraved by the famous craftsmen of the world three years ago. There are three pieces in total, one piece in the father's body, one piece in the beautiful girl, and one piece in the waiting for its owner."
"Father, please tell me more." Mu Yun said in surprise.
Emperor Zongzheng said: "Three years ago, the father removed Xixi's identity as a royal daughter-in-law and was given the title of Bingjing Jushi. Xixi traveled all over the world and secretly established an army organization. It took three years to successfully establish it, which was shortened by two years than the five years that the father said. Xixi's girl is a treasure in her body!"
Mu Yun seemed to be stunned. When he recalled the situation back then, he suddenly asked, "Father, did you care about it and voluntarily?"
Emperor Zong Zheng smiled and said, "That girl, who is determined to wander around the world, how could she voluntarily? The father reached an agreement with her on the condition of repaying her complete freedom. She established an underground army for me, and after completion, she could gain true freedom. But I didn't expect that she only took three years! Three years, and it was still secretly carried out, unknown to everyone. The father was very curious, how did she do it?"
Speaking of later, Emperor Zongzheng couldn't help but sigh that even if he was himself, he might not be able to complete it in just three years. That little girl is so surprising.
"This Phoenix Token can call for the mobilization of underground troops. Seeing the token is like seeing someone. If you look carefully at the seven stars on the back, the position is exactly on the head, wings, claws, abdomen and tail of the phoenix on the front. If you look more closely, there are seven different colors in the corresponding position of the seven stars. This is a measure taken to prevent the phoenix token from being faked by others if it is accidentally lost."
Mu Yun looked at it carefully and it was indeed the case. A question in his heart asked: "Father, why should you do this with Xixi? We have our own army, why should we build an underground army?"
Emperor Zongzheng said: "Yun'er, the peace of the List Continent has always been on the surface, in the dark, like the bottom of the sea, with turbulent waves. Unifying the List Continent is the greatest dream of the emperors of all countries. The five countries had an alliance. If anyone provoked a war in the future, the rest of the countries could attack this country. Now it is the first country of Tang Song and Hanla that we started the war, destroying the alliance of our ancestors, and giving other countries an excuse to start a war.
Qianyue Kingdom took advantage of the situation and sent troops to attack me, Tang Song and Hanla. The troops were comparable to ours, but they had a Yinan tribe who was good at placing poison. Once the placing poison was used in large quantities in the military, we would suffer a secret loss, and it was difficult to find effective treatment and could be cured as soon as possible."
"The underground army established by Xixi is divided into the 3rd Division, Sixth Brigade, and Ninth Battalion. Each team has its own specialties. Here is a booklet for the underground army, you can take it and take a look." Emperor Zong Zheng said, handing a red booklet to Mu Yun and continuing, "The father is tired, and you still need to continue to complete the dream of his ancestors. Implementing the unified list as soon as possible and implementing a new peace policy is a great act of good for the list mainland. The father is going to fish later, so you can go back."
Mu Yun took the Phoenix Token and the booklet, and Jishou said: "Yes, the child will leave."
After walking a few steps, he suddenly stopped and turned around and said, "Father, I have always been, but I still don't understand something. I hope my father can tell you today."
Emperor Zongzheng said: "Yun'er, what's the matter?"
Mu Yun said: "Father, why did you insist on having your child become the crown prince three years ago? You are the king of a country. It is not a big problem to enthrone the second or fifth brothers as the crown prince."
Emperor Zongzheng stood up, walked to Mu Yun, stared at him for a moment, then looked at the bodyguard waiting not far outside the door, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Yun'er, Father knows your thoughts, but, alas... everything is destined. Father fishes, do you want to come?"
Mu Yun suddenly said silence, looking weakly at his father who had been lifting the emperor's burden, he became more and more like an old man from a commoner's house.
