The Prodigal Son of the Empire

Just like the Qi people look down on people from other countries.

Shouchun people also look down on people from other vassal states, which is a natural sense of superiority.

A place name forms a kind of person.

They have never worried about the Qi-Chu war before, and now they are fighting against the Quartet Alliance, let alone cared about it.

Life here is still normal, without the slightest disturbance.

Chu State is the most powerful country in the mainland, and it has never lost a foreign war.

Now, the impact is finally here

This is due to the urgent report sent by the front line. The million-strong army formed by the five princes and kings in the early stage was almost completely wiped out.

failed badly

Now the front line is facing a major crisis, Hengguo has fallen, and it is impossible to resist the enemy. Please think of countermeasures and support as soon as possible

It was as if a thunderbolt had landed on his head, making the mighty city of Shouchun shake like never before.

too fast.

Not long after the millions of reinforcements left, the news of the defeat came, which made many people at a loss.

reinforcements?

How can there be reinforcements?

The first thousand and 490 chapter three Xiang Lintian!

The citizens of the city are in a panic. Since the front line has sent back such a battle report, it must be impossible to hide it. The actual situation may be more serious than this.

Soon, the urgent report came again. ms

There are less than 20 troops left in our army, and Hengguo has been completely occupied by the enemy, so we have no choice but to retreat to Pingguo.

Looking at this situation, it has already collapsed across the board.

All kinds of rumors arose.

All eyes are on the palace, facing this crisis, how to deal with it?

The urgent report from the front disrupted the normal rhythm and order.

Recently, the whole Shouchun has been doing one thing, that is the emperor's empress ceremony.

A country cannot be without a king for a day, and it cannot be without a queen for a day.

The current emperor of Chu, Xiang Lintian, is a new king succeeding to the throne. Not long after he took the throne, he encountered the battle between Qi and Chu. It was finally over, and a new war ushered in, so the matter of establishing a successor has been stranded.

It's on the agenda now.

It's just that the queen's origin is unknown, quite mysterious, and has never been announced. All I know is that she is beautiful, beautiful, and the most beautiful woman in the world

According to the established plan, it will be held when the battle is clear and the victory is determined, but now something like this happened.

The fear of the people also shocked the entire ruling and opposition parties.

The officials of various ministries and positions hurriedly walked, with solemn faces, rushing back and forth, some went to the palace, some went to the yamen, in short, it was a mess

The palace also lost the peace of the past, and the atmosphere has changed

"How did this happen, how did this happen? Is Hengguo a bottomless pit? Why can't the number of troops be filled?"

In the resplendent hall, a man in a dragon robe was furious

He wears a purple gold crown with hair inlaid on his head, his eyes are like a phoenix, his eyebrows are like lying silkworms, his lips are square, his forehead is wide and his top is flat, his skin and flesh are full, and his slender, tall but not rough figure is set off by the dragon robe. down, very tall

His face gives people the feeling that he is a natural dragon face, with the appearance of an emperor, and even more the air of an emperor

He is the current emperor of Great Chu, Xiang Lintian

It is said that when he was born, there was thunder in the sky and appearance on the earth. His father, the emperor, caught his eye and named him, Lintian.

It means that when he grows up, he can directly rule the world

As soon as he was born, he was established as a prince.

The position of the crown prince was directly confirmed, and the old Chu emperor had been cultivating him. After his death, he successfully inherited the throne.

However, in fact, he was not in Shouchun for many years, but traveled to various vassal states. During this period, he established good relations with many vassal states, which is why he was supported at the beginning of his succession , and there was no rebellion among the vassal states.

From a long time ago, he started the layout, paving the way for his succession

Although he was the new king who succeeded to the throne, he quickly took control of the court, and no major changes occurred, and he kept his word.

Therefore, when he got angry, his courtiers were frightened and did not dare to make the slightest sound.

Xiang Lintian lost his mind

This is the first time he has been so angry in front of his ministers since he took the throne

Like the people of the country, he also didn't have too much worry about this war. The difference in strength between the two sides was not even a tiny bit.

In terms of size, there is also a huge difference.

On his side are the three allies of Wei, Wu, and Ba.

Therefore, the result of this battle did not surprise him.

In the beginning, the five princes and kings hoarded more than a million troops to fight on the border. These five princes were the five largest princes in the west of Chu, and because of their geographical location, they formed a group, which was a great threat to the central government. .

Yes, after succeeding to the throne, Xiang Lintian was determined to change the political system of Chu State, abolish the enfeoffment, change counties and counties, and strengthen the centralization of power.

This idea has been there since he was still the crown prince.

But he never expressed this intention positively.

The essence of abolishing feudalism is to abolish princes, which cannot be accomplished in one sentence.

Earlier, there was an Emperor of Chu who took tough measures to abolish the princes. However, at the beginning, he faced considerable resistance, which caused the alliance of the princes to counterattack. That time, the royal family almost changed hands.

These are lessons learned.

So he never mentioned it, but has been doing it secretly.
