The Prodigal Son of the Empire

"Yes!"

"Okay, let's do it!"

"Yes."

Guo Zude withdrew, and Wang Kang rubbed his swollen head. There were too many problems to deal with.

Let the news out now, so that everyone can have a mental preparation, and then make a further announcement after officially proclaiming the emperor.

What he has to do now is to prepare for proclaiming himself emperor.

Soon, the news began to spread in Shouchun City.

Those city residents and aristocratic families who were still waiting and watching finally gave up their thoughts.

In fact, when Wang Kang iron-bloodedly dealt with the three major families, they should understand that what Wang Kang wants is not the so-called indemnity, but the entire Great Chu!

The old dynasty is gone, and the new dynasty is standing.

Da Chu will become a thing of the past.

At the same time, Wang Kang also selected some people from the army, formally appointed officials, established a bureaucratic system, including city defense and city guards, etc., and many people were sent out to the occupied areas of Dachu, and the non-occupied areas informed this matter. Everything is going on as planned...

In this regard, the city residents remained silent. The matter was a foregone conclusion, and they had no choice but to accept their fate. Many people were optimistic.

I dare not say anything else, Wang Kang has a reputation for his attitude towards ordinary people.

During the course of the war, wherever he went, he would put forward some excellent policies for the people, and this is how he earned the title of King of Righteousness.

As for those aristocratic families, they all faced the reality. They didn't want to follow in the footsteps of the three major families. They all asked to meet Wang Kang, began to show their loyalty, and expressed that they would fully cooperate and not make trouble.

At the same time, Xiang Tai was sent out, and he led the army of the headquarters to start the work of stabilizing the place.

At this time, Wang Kang realized that he was seriously short of manpower.

Originally, his army was quite large, but it belonged to the alliance army.

In fact, Jiang Chenghua, Lu Zhao, etc. are all troops from other countries, and he cannot directly employ them, so those summoned to Chu came in handy...

There are so many things to deal with, even Wang Kang is a bit overwhelmed, but fortunately, the progress is going smoothly, and good news is coming one after another.

The defenders of Tiemenguan and Wushengguan, the two major pass fortresses, officially announced their surrender. Excluding those who fled, there were still 15 regular troops.

This is undoubtedly good news.

The list drawn up by Guo Zude has been formally implemented with the approval of Wang Kang.

The selected ones are all relatively important official positions. Although they are not complete, they can already guarantee normal operation.

The chaotic situation improved little by little, and a new order began to be established again.

Everyone knew that Wang Kang was about to proclaim himself emperor, and now there was only one formal ceremony left.

Also at this time, an urgent message came, Zhao Huang Jiang Chengli had already set off and was about to arrive in Shouchun, and now he had reached the area of ​​the original Great Chu Heng Kingdom.

It will take some time for him to arrive, but Yan Huang Murong Zhao who is ahead of him has already arrived.

In order to relieve Wang Kang's pressure, he led his troops to chase the enemy all the way. Murong Zhao played a very important role in Wang Kang's successful capture of Shouchun. To show his sincerity, Wang Kang went out of the city to greet him...

Chapter 3

The first thousand 620 eight chapters I have a plan!

In order to pursue the enemy army, Murong Zhao came to the hinterland of Dachu from the border of Yanchu. After learning the news, Wang Kang immediately sent a prairie cavalry of 10 to assist. destruction.At this time, Wang Kang also captured Shouchun, and Murong Zhao was about to return to Yan.It was Wang Kang who sent a letter to him, asking him to come to Shouchun, first to discuss the division of interests, which Wang Kang promised before the war.The second is to invite him to attend the enthronement ceremony.

Originally, he was planning to invite Yuejun Xia Yanchun, but Yueguo was too far away from Chuguo, so it was inconvenient, so he had to give up... For Murong Zhao, Wang Kang was very grateful. After wooing him into the Four Kingdoms Alliance, he was a qualified ally and has been keeping the enemy at bay, especially this time chasing the enemy, which made Wang Kang feel inexplicable... He came outside the city ahead of time and waited for a while. A large army ahead came into view.The size of this army is not small. There are [-] troops sent by Wang Kang to support Yan State earlier, [-] grassland cavalry, and the army of Yan State itself.

However, it is impossible to preserve such a complete number of people. After a long war here, there must be casualties... After a while, the car arrived in front of the city, and Murong Zhao came out surrounded by a crowd.The experience of the war made Murong Zhao look more like a military soldier than before, but he also seemed to be in the dust...Wang Kang walked up to him quickly. "Haha, I'm finally looking forward to your arrival." "Looking forward to me?" Murong Zhao said calmly, but without a smile on his face, "Isn't this statement a bit hypocritical?" Oh, it's quite arrogant.It's been a long time since I saw this guy, but he still looks like this.Wang Kang shook his head and said, "I'm telling the truth."

"But what should I call you now? Commander of the Allied Forces, or... Emperor Chu?" During this period of time, I don't know how many times I have heard similar questions. This is because the news has spread, and everyone knows him. To be enthroned as emperor. "If Emperor Yan doesn't dislike it, just call me Brother Kang, and we can be regarded as a model of turning hostility into friendship." Murong Zhao obviously didn't expect Wang Kang to say this, he hesitated for a while, and still didn't speak... Maybe it felt unnatural Well, he once suffered a lot from Wang Kang.But what kind of situation is there now, it also profoundly explains a truth.

There are no permanent enemies, only permanent interests.When Wang Kang lured Murong Zhao onto the boat, it was for the purpose of intimidation, but also for the benefit... "Let's go, take him to see the palace of Chu State." Wang Kang didn't care about his attitude, in fact, Murong Zhao It's just a little embarrassing.

A group of people entered the city.Wang Kang also confessed to settle down the army that followed Murong Zhao. They were always in short supply of food and grass, and even stopped for a while... Riding in the open car, Murong Zhao looked outside curiously.

He also came to Shouchun for the first time. "It's better these few days. If you come a few days earlier, it's very chaotic." Wang Kang explained beside him.After several days of hard work, Shouchun has finally restored order. At least the city residents have no resistance to him. Many shops on the street have opened, and the flow of people has increased. At least they have returned to normal life.

The rice needs to be eaten in one bite, first stabilize the center of Shouchun, the big Chu, and then slowly map it, taking this as the center and spreading to the surrounding area.In fact, he has appointed many officials and troops to stabilize the local situation.After the war, there was chaos everywhere, no law, no order, and frequent incidents of burning, killing and looting. For him, this was the troublesome thing.And this matter is urgent, he doesn't want Tian Wen to take advantage of it.Wang Kang has arranged for people to discuss the enactment of laws and redefine political regions.

He fought all the way to the west, northwest, southwest and other places. The forces that originally belonged to the princes and kings were all wiped out. This is an excellent opportunity to change counties... "East Chu, what are you going to do?" Murong Zhao, who was looking outside, asked.This is indeed a big problem, because Eastern Chu is an area he has not set foot in, and the system of princes and kings is still preserved there.

However, the military strength is not good, because the armies of the Eastern Chu vassal states have basically been drained by Xiang Lintian.Even so, if they gather together, it will be a great hidden danger... It is indeed relatively difficult to deal with.The territory of Chu State is too large, and it will take a long time to conquer it one by one.

And the current situation is that it is no longer realistic to launch a large-scale war again.There is a big gap in military supplies and food. "It's best if it can be resolved peacefully, if not, we can only fight..." Wang Kang hasn't figured out the specific strategy yet, and there are too many things going on recently, and he can't care about it at all.

"In my opinion, it's better not to fight." Murong Zhao said: "The allied forces are exhausted, the soldiers are exhausted, and now the people are in dire straits. I have seen many tragic things along the way." "You If you are enthroned as emperor, the most urgent task is to restore the production order as soon as possible, and you need to recuperate, not only you, but my country of Yan is also the same, I am afraid that the country of Zhao is not much better..." "I know." Wang Kang shook his head, of course he knows the current situation situation.It's better not to fight, or not to fight. "In fact, the problem can be solved through negotiation."

Murong Zhao said: "I think the princes and kings of Eastern Chu are also panicking at the moment. It's nothing more than an agreement, and I think it can be resolved." In this regard, Murong Zhao is indeed experienced, after all, he has been an emperor for many years. "Negotiations are possible. I can even think of what conditions they will raise. It is nothing more than allowing them to continue to retain the vassal state and the vassal system that originally belonged to the Great Chu." "Then what do you think?" Murong Zhao said: " This is inevitable, if it were me, I would also raise such a condition, and I can't go back."

"You directly abolished the three major families. It should be that you are extremely repulsed by the enfeoffment system, but I want to remind you, don't be too anxious. Being an emperor is not so easy. More often than not, you need to compromise and balance. I suggest you, temporarily promise Their request, wait for you to stabilize the court situation, and then slowly implement it." Murong Zhao was able to say these words, but it was not easy. He knew Wang Kang's character was too rigid, he would never compromise, and he also wanted to persuade him.

Wang Kang smiled and said: "I will agree to their conditions, but I will also abolish the system of feudal lords." Did it?" "Then do you dare to make a bet with me?" Wang Kang said with a smile: "I have a plan, it is a real conspiracy, and I can easily abolish the feudal system..."

.

The first thousand 620 chapters and nine open and honest talks...

Hearing this, Murong Zhao didn't seem to care.

"You think the problem is too simple. The vassal system is deeply rooted. It didn't happen overnight, nor can it be easily solved. In the final analysis, it is driven by interests."

Murong Zhao said: "If you really have such a method, then I would like to thank you, and Emperor Zhao Jiang Chengli, similar problems also exist in Yan and Zhao."

"Just like you, you were originally the biggest nobleman in Zhao Kingdom."

Wang Kang laughed in surprise.

This Murong Zhao did not forget to ridicule him.

"I'm not talking empty words that will cause chaos and let them disintegrate themselves."

Of course Wang Kang was convinced.

Because his strategy has been proven through practice, and it is known as the most upright poisonous strategy, which can be seen in general.

"Just wait and see."

Wang Kang asked with a smile: "Do you dare to bet?"
