Chapter 525 The sun and the moon shine, all are concubines
Mount Tai stands majestically in Taishan County, above the Qidi Plain, with the vast sea to the east, the Yellow River to the west, and the waters of Wen, Si and Huai to the south. Since ancient times, it has been the sacred mountain where emperors of all dynasties have offered sacrifices to heaven and earth.
Also because the war in Qidi had just ended, tens of thousands of elite Yun troops and more than 100,000 young and strong soldiers from the county were all in Taishan County.
Therefore, after Xiao Cheng decided to enshrine the Zen in Mount Tai, there was no need to re-recruit the people for corvee service, and he only needed to directly mobilize the army to build the altar.
The efficiency of this army is naturally much higher than that of recruiting civilians.
After Xiao Cheng issued the decree, in less than three months, everything needed for Feng Chan was ready!
Xiao Cheng, who had just stopped in Jinling City for a short time, set off again with his accompanying important officials.
Wherever you pass along the way, you will receive both kindness and power.
In a place that has been repeatedly invaded by wars, the people are treated with light corvee and low taxes, but generous rewards and kindness are given to the people.
Those who refuse to surrender to Dayun will be severely punished. When the army arrives, buildings will collapse!
In the areas that had just been conquered by Yun's army, under the combination of kindness and power of Emperor Dayun, the remaining unstable factors were swept away. Only when the local government was re-established, these states and counties could truly come under Dayun's rule.
Under the rule of Taishan County, above the official road outside Tai'an City.
The Forbidden Army Gongsheng Camp, who was in charge of the honor guard team, was dressed in gorgeous armor, with feathers on their heads, and parasitic wings. The cloak behind them was flapping, and they were clearly clearing the way in front.
Behind him were flags, flags, flags, umbrellas, and the emperor's majestic guard of honor. The carriages of hundreds of officials followed closely behind, slowly coming along with solemn rituals and music.
The nearly 10,000 troops guarding the surrounding areas were equipped with both foot and cavalry, shouting in front and supporting behind. They were all the elites of the Yun army. As they marched, they showed their invincible and fierce military power.
On both sides of the official road, the common people knelt down respectfully to welcome the Emperor's arrival.
But at this moment, in front of Luan Jia, a group of people wearing plain white clothes suddenly rushed out barefoot, and suddenly fell to their knees before the group went forward.
When the Imperial Guard saw this, they were immediately startled and were about to step forward to capture this group of people.
At this time, I saw the leader holding a letter of credence high and shouting in his hand:
"The sinful king of Goryeo, he was arrogant and unreasonable, and offended the power of the great clouds. Now he is guilty!"
"Li Xingyou, the foreign minister of Goryeo Guangping, came with the letter of credence on the orders of Prince Zizhao, especially to ask for surrender! From now on, I wish to pay tribute every year, send my son as a pledge, and be Dayun's vassal forever!"
The group of people kneeling down in front of them to confess their sins turned out to be the envoys from the Kingdom of Goryeo!
I remembered that half a year ago, Goryeo still threatened Dayun with a strong attitude and peeked into the Central Plains.
But he never thought that it would only be a short time before he took the initiative to send someone to accuse him and ask for surrender!
The general of the Forbidden Army who was responsible for Luan Jia's safety looked at the Goryeo envoy who almost disturbed the Holy Jia and made him bear the blame for nothing, with a look of displeasure on his face, and snorted coldly:
"Even if they are envoys from other countries, it is an unforgivable crime to offend the Holy Master. I will suppress all these people and wait for His Majesty's disposal!"
With a shout, the surrounding Imperial Guards immediately swarmed forward and dragged these people to the side of the road like dead dogs. Finally, they were not hindered from driving behind.
Seeing the extremely gorgeous jade chariot, symbolizing the majesty of the emperor, slowly passing by on the official road, the Korean envoy Li Xingyou, who was being held tightly by the imperial army general, suddenly became excited and shouted at the top of his lungs:
"It is known that the sinful country has made a mistake. Please show mercy to His Majesty Emperor Dayun. Please show mercy!"
The Yun Army Imperial Guards who were holding him down saw him suddenly howling, fearing that he would disturb the Holy Master, they immediately became furious and slapped him hard, saying viciously:
"Bold, if I scare His Majesty, you will not regret dying!"
Li Xingyou turned a deaf ear and just continued to shout to the jade chariot that had not gone far:
"Everyone in Korea has realized their mistake..."
"Please, His Majesty Emperor Dayun, be lenient and forgive us!"
When the Forbidden Army general saw this, he became furious. He immediately punched and kicked him, grabbed his head and pinned him to the ground.
As an important minister of Goryeo, Li Xingyou was also a man of both civil and military skills. His cultivation level had even reached the level of a high-level warrior.
But when faced with being beaten by a low-ranking general of the imperial army who was only at the fifth level of cultivation, and who was responsible for the survival of the Goryeo state, he did not dare to fight back at all. He could only cover his head with his hands and shout at the top of his lungs.
In the jade chariot, Xiao Cheng's ears twitched and he said in a deep voice:
"Korean envoy, when did you come again?"
Feng Bao on the side heard this and said quickly:
"Four months ago, the Goryeo Navy was annihilated by our Dayun Navy in a battle and captured the royal city. After the Goryeo kings and ministers were forced to move their capital, they sent envoys to sue for peace."
"More than a month ago, Dongchang came to report. Prairie Ashinasheer, under His Majesty's order, sent troops via the Bohai Sea to defeat 30,000 Goryeo cavalry head-on, causing the northern border of Goryeo to be on fire."
"Koryeo was no longer able to support the war, so Crown Prince Li Zhao took the opportunity to launch a coup, imprisoned the leader of Goryeo, Li Daoxiang, and sent envoys to request surrender."
Having said this, Feng Bao paused for a moment and then said:
"Just because His Majesty has previously issued a decree to exterminate Goryeo, the letter of credence and surrender have not been handed over to His Majesty. It must be because of this that these Goryeo envoys can only stop and invite them like this.
Surrender."
Although it had only been half a year since Goryeo made those arrogant remarks, facing the Dayun Navy, the grassland cavalry, and the Bohai Kingdom's troops, Goryeo could no longer hold on.
In order to ask for Dayun's forgiveness, even his own country's leader was put under house arrest.
Presumably, as long as Xiao Cheng says a word at this time, Goryeo will immediately send the old king to the Yun Kingdom.
At this time, Xiao Cheng said calmly:
"These Korean envoys should be punished for offending the Holy Emperor, but they do not need to be severely punished."
Although he was really angry at the beginning, Xiao Cheng had never cared about the little country of Korea, so naturally he didn't feel any sense of relief in his heart.
"As for Korea..." Xiao Cheng pondered for a moment and then said immediately:
"Who is the naval general who led the troops to capture the capital of Yanli this time?" The small division that captured Gao Tube in Tatsuren City is accurate.
"This naval force is under the command of General Jinghai Liu Rengui. Lieutenant Fu Yulong led his troops as the vanguard and fought bravely to capture the capital of Goryeo!"
When Xiao Cheng heard this, his brows suddenly raised.
Liu Rengui and Fu Yulong were both characters summoned by Xun Ka. They were the generals who defeated Fusang Navy in the naval battle at Baijiangkou during the Tang Dynasty.
"That Buyeo Ryong, I remember he is of Goryeo bloodline!"
"Yes, it is true that Colonel Buyeo Long was born in Korea." Feng Bao replied.
Xiao Cheng nodded and said:
"I decree that the title of the Goryeo Kingdom be removed, the Andong Protectorate be established, and that it be placed under the control of the former Military Governor General Di Qing!"
"General Jinghai Liu Rengui, with great military exploits, was granted the title of earl of Kaicheng and appointed as the Protector of the Andong Protectorate."
"I have granted you the title of Earl of Liucheng, Lieutenant of the Navy, Fu Yulong, and the command of the Andong Protectorate in Jin Dynasty. Liucheng, the capital of the Goryeo Dynasty, is my fief, and I am allowed to open a mansion to educate the people of Goryeo!"
After hearing Xiao Cheng's order, Feng Bao was stunned and said hesitantly:
"Colonel Fu Yulong deserves a reward for conquering his king's capital. But the fifth-class title in the country has always been a virtual title without a real estate. Your Majesty allowed him to open a palace and gave him the capital of Goryeo as a fief. Isn't it a bit...
"
Xiao accepted this decree and transferred the military affairs of Goryeo to the Andong Protectorate. However, he handed over the power to govern the local area to Fu Yulong.
This is of course because Buyeo Yong’s Goryeo ancestry can minimize the resistance of the Goryeo people.
But in the final analysis, it still broke the system that Xiao Cheng had personally formulated, that the Yun Kingdom's title had no real estate! The enfeoffment system that had long been abandoned by all the countries in the world was once again brought out.
Xiao Cheng leaned back slightly and asked casually:
"Do you know how many talents there are in the imperial court today who can serve as governors of the Six Ministries and Okawajin?"
Feng Bao was a little confused, but he still replied:
"It's all thanks to His Majesty's discerning eye for talents. Now I, Dayun, naturally have as many civil servants as the clouds, powerful generals as the rain, and abundant talents!"
Feng Bao's words were actually mostly empty talk. He couldn't see the attribute table of his ministers.
I only have a general impression in my mind of who is capable and who is not.
But Xiao Cheng knew that now, in the Yun Kingdom court, there were talents with attributes above ninety-five, enough to fill the high positions of third rank and above in all the ministries of the court!
And now, almost every few months, Xiao Cheng can draw a famous minister with 90 attributes.
With so many talents, if there are not enough ways to advance, I am afraid there will be no trouble!
"You just talk about the world under heaven, but do you know how big the world is?" Xiao Cheng asked again.
Feng Bao laughed sarcastically and said:
"As a servant, you are in the palace and have not been able to see beyond the palace walls since you were a child. How can you know how vast the world is?"
"To the west of the Western Region, there is the Great Yuezhi. To the west of the Great Yuezhi, there are other countries. Tang Ruowang, who developed artillery, and Matteo Ricci in Sitianjian came from those countries."
"To the west of our Great Yunnan Territory are the kingdoms of Tianzhu."
"North of the Northern Territory are the grassland tribes. North of the grassland are the bitter cold lands, and there are countries!"
"Even across the sea, there is such a huge land." "The world is so big that Kyushu is not the only land!" Feng Bao was stunned when he heard this.
Due to the limitations of his gaze, he has not yet realized what Xiao Cheng meant.
At this moment, Luan Jia slowly stopped.
An official from the Ministry of Rites came outside the jade chariot and said respectfully:
"Your Majesty, Mount Tai has arrived!"
Hearing this, Xiao Cheng straightened his imperial robe and walked out of the jade chariot slowly.
Mount Tai stands tall in front of us, and the climbing stairs have been swept and renovated. The soldiers of the imperial army are lined up on both sides to protect the holy driver.
All the officials and people on both sides knelt on the ground as soon as Xiao Cheng appeared, shouting long live the mountain!
"Long live, long live, long live!"
The sound of the mountain call was so powerful that it resounded above Mount Tai and continued to echo among the mountains and forests, startling the birds.
Xiao Cheng, neatly dressed and surrounded by officials, slowly climbed to the altar on top of the Jade Emperor, the main peak of Mount Tai.
Xiao Cheng personally offered incense and offered sacrifices to heaven, and there was solemn ceremony and music.
The ceremony officer held the sacrificial inscription in his hand and chanted loudly:
"Emperor Dayun dares to declare to the gods of heaven and earth:
The world is in disarray, and there are many kingdoms. There are frequent wars, and people are devastated. I gather talents and use force to unify the kingdoms, so that I can have nine states and dominate the common people.
Respect the Holy Spirit, establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a destiny for the people, create peace for all generations, achieve great success, and never have chaos. I only inherit the order of heaven, use sacrifices and warnings carefully, and only God can teach you.
Shang Xi! "
After reading it, he respectfully presented the sacrificial inscription in his hand to Xiao Cheng.
Xiao Cheng reached out and took it, lit it and placed it in the sacrificial tripod. Green smoke curled up, turning the sacrificial vessel into a ball of ashes.
At this moment, a golden ray of light suddenly flew out from the sacrificial tripod and shot towards the sky.
In the line of sight that only Xiao Cheng could see, a golden font suddenly flashed.
[The plot of seeking immortals has been triggered, and Mount Tai is enshrined in Zen...]
In an instant, I saw the ever-changing clouds and mist above the Jade Emperor Peak. At this time, there were waves and many strange phenomena appeared.
The clouds and mist dispersed, and it was like the door to heaven and earth opened.
A golden auspicious light slowly projected on Xiao Cheng from the air, illuminating Xiao Cheng's entire body with golden light spreading around him. The divine light circulated like a heavenly being coming to earth!
[Shocked by the vision, the ambition of all officials is permanently reduced by 20. Officials with moral attributes lower than 60 have morals of 10]
[The plot of "Looking for Immortals" "Taishan Fengchan" has ended. 】
[Trigger the Dika skill and travel to seek immortality.]
[Effect: The life span is 1 year and 1 month. There will be no natural disasters in the country within three years. The concubines, princes, princesses, and ministers have a life span of 1 year, and they will receive a "Heaven and Earth Longevity Pill". 】
A streak of colorful light shot straight into the sky.
The golden Qingyun that stretched for dozens of miles condensed again at this time. The phantom of the Kyushu Cauldron suppressed it. The dragon and tiger energy of Sheji took shape boldly, surged continuously, and manifested.
A divine beast emerges.
The national luck golden dragon, which symbolizes the luck of the Yun Kingdom, is constantly surging in the Qingyun, and bursts of exciting dragon roars, showing the joy.
Little bits of brilliance, invisible to ordinary people, scattered within the borders of the Yun Kingdom.
Zhongqing City and the capital area, Nanjun, Yongzhou, Anguo, Xinfu Xiaguozhou County...
In all the borders of the Yun Kingdom, the dry land became turbulent, the raging rivers suddenly became gentle, the clouds and rain became evenly dispersed, the locust eggs hidden in the land suddenly died, and the faint vibrations deep in the earth's crust also
Being stabilized...
Natural disasters that may occur in the next three years will disappear immediately under the influence of this heaven and earth phenomenon.
Xiao Cheng stood upright on the top of the Jade Emperor Peak, looking at the vastness of the world and the magnificence of the mountains and rivers from a distance, but he suddenly felt aspiration and pride in his heart.
He immediately turned around, looked at the officials kneeling on the altar, and shouted in a deep voice:
"It's all thanks to the help of all the ministers. Now the nine states have been settled, the three kingdoms have been unified, and the great cause has been accomplished!" After hearing this, all the officials stood up and bowed again, and the mountain shouted:
"My ministers, I congratulate your Majesty on your great achievements!"
Xiao Cheng waved his sleeves and said loudly:
"Since ancient times, the kings of all dynasties have always aimed at unifying the Nine Provinces, and then they kept to themselves. They put their swords and guns in the treasury, and their horses were released in Nanshan. They even eradicated the heroes in order to regain their power."
"But I am different!"
"The world is vast, with the Western Regions to the west, Tianzhu to the south, and Fusang to the east. On the other side of the sea, there is even richer land. How can I, the great cloud, stop at Kyushu?"
"Wherever the sun and moon shine, and wherever the rivers reach, they should all be under the control of the great clouds!"
"If anyone intends to go to the four places and expand the territory, I will grant him a city as in the case of Goryeo, and allow him to open a palace and build a tooth. If he can dominate one place, I will not hesitate to give him the gold seal of the king!
「
As soon as these words came out, all the civil and military officials present were shocked!
What your Majesty said today is clearly to reintroduce the enfeoffment system that has been abolished by other countries.
The drawbacks of the enfeoffment system are indeed not small. But upon closer inspection, it is the best way to expand the occupation of remote areas to the greatest extent and increase the sphere of influence of the Yun Kingdom!
As long as the central government remains strong enough, Dayun's influence will spread infinitely.
His Majesty's move clearly sets his sights on the real world!
For a moment, all the important civil and military ministers felt complicated, but they did not dare to dissuade him.
But the civil and military officials at the middle and lower levels were overjoyed.
Today, His Majesty has not stopped the pace of conquest and is aiming at all directions, which means that there are still countless meritorious deeds to obtain, so that they can become famous and occupy high positions!
Driven by interests, most of the courtiers were in high spirits, and they immediately shouted in unison:
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"
"."
Wearing an imperial robe, holding the Raging Dragon Sword in his hand, listening to the call of the officials, his eyes are filled with awe-inspiring power!
