Reborn as the crippled king's favorite

Chapter 560: Not a Person Who Sells His Daughter for Fame

If a country wants women and men to have equal status, it cannot be achieved with just a few words.

To many people, this is nothing short of a pipe dream.

Therefore, Murong Jiu wanted to promote women, let them become officials, and slowly change other people's thinking.

Nothing can be accomplished overnight, let alone something this difficult.

Hong Yi is a martial arts master, but she is only a small maid, which is a bit of a waste of her talent.

Murong Jiu wanted her to give it her all and show a different side of her.

In the future, maybe Hong Yi will also want to make great achievements, lead troops to fight, and become the first female general of Dayan.

Even if Hong Yi was not the first female general of Dayan, it was possible that she would appear in Hong Yi's female royal guards.

This will bring different meaning to Dayan.

"I'd love to do it!"

Hong Yi said excitedly.

She found her original passion again and was full of fighting spirit.

Murong Jiu smiled and nodded: "Just go for it, I'll support you from behind."

Hong Yi nodded heavily, stayed up all night, and compiled a list the next day, which included all her junior sisters from the same sect.

This sect was originally loyal to Jun Yuyan.

Even the secret guards around Jun Yuyan were trained here.

After Jun Yuyan knew Murong Jiu's plan, he sent a group of female warriors to Hong Yi without saying a word.

The royal family has its own channels for training secret guards and maids. Some of those with outstanding abilities are arranged to protect the emperor and princes, or placed in important positions, and some even become spies to other countries.

The others are not as good as the former, but they are also full of skills.

Now that we have a female royal guard, we can train her better.

Just like Murong Jiu said, we can train female generals who can lead troops into battle.

Women are inferior to men, which is just a prejudice of the world.

Jun Yuyan felt that no man in the world could compare to his queen.

Of course, life wasn’t always smooth sailing.

The exiled second prince was lucky enough not to die from the miasma in Lingnan and was still alive.

Murong Man also tried her best to survive and gave birth to the second prince's "son".

It is said that Murong Man lost the baby in her womb, but she bought a son from a peasant woman and passed him off as her own.

As soon as she arrived in Lingnan, she began to instigate local gentry and tyrants to support her son. She also wanted to poison the second prince and become the local queen mother herself.

However, the Second Prince's Concubine Yun Weiwei was no pushover either. She even secretly kept a guard as a lover. It was not known whether it was Murong Man who inspired her, but the two of them were fighting each other in Lingnan.

But it didn't cause any waves.

Lingnan is completely under Jun Yuyan's control. All local officials were appointed by Jun Yuyan himself and can report directly to the emperor.

In other words, every move of the Second Prince was under Jun Yuyan's eyes.

The reason why it is said to be unsatisfactory is that a small sea city in Lingnan was actually occupied by the "sea monkeys" of a tiny country, and more than a hundred people were massacred.

This made Jun Yuyan extremely angry.

That tiny country is just a small country by the sea. Because of its small size, it likes to invade other countries at sea and occupy the islands of other countries. It has a typical bandit style and is called "sea monkey" by the people of Dayan.

It’s just that these “sea monkeys” used to only test the country when there was civil unrest in Dayan. Now that Dayan is rich and powerful with a strong army, they dare to massacre the people of Dayan. They simply don’t want to live.

Murong Jiu was also shocked when he heard the news.

Because this was totally beyond people's expectations.

She frowned and said, "Could it be that there is some important treasure in Sabin County that these sea monkeys would rather offend the Great Yan court than take action?"

"Spies have already entered the city to investigate, and results should be available soon."

Jun Yuyan looked at the sand table in front of him. In his hand was a small flag of Dayan. He took Murong Jiu's hand and said to her:

"Ajiu, let's destroy it."

As he spoke, the flag he and Murong Jiu held in their hands was planted on the territory of a small country outside Dayan.

"Without it, the Great Yan would not have been invaded and nearly destroyed a thousand years later, and the people would not have suffered terribly. Originally, I was afraid of changing history and affecting the fate of the country, but they were the ones who provoked me first, weren't they?"

Murong Jiu pursed his lips and looked at the small country with a flag planted on it.

She didn't think about it for long before nodding heavily.

"Okay, I support you. Do whatever you want. If we are afraid to act because we know history, we will not be ourselves. Moreover, even if we don't know history, as the emperor of Yan, you will not be able to swallow your anger when encountering such an emergency. This may not have happened in history. History has already changed after Wang Yingluo appeared."

This sea monkey country has never been liked by the people of Dayan. They have committed many evil deeds on the sea. Murong Jiu's fleet at sea has been harassed before, but they like to disguise themselves as other countries, so it is difficult to find reasons to impose sanctions on them.

"In the final analysis, these sea monkeys dared to take action because they were good at naval warfare, and perhaps they were driven by huge profits, but it was also inseparable from their arrogance."

They may have thought that Dayan was recuperating and would not rashly go into battle.

But they didn't know that since last year, Murong Jiu and Jun Yuyan had ordered people to secretly build ships and train the navy in Fujin, Tianjin Wei and other places.

After learning about the subsequent failure of the naval war from Wang Yingluo, Jun Yuyan allocated more silver funds to expand the navy.

They were never afraid of the enemy coming.

Jun Yuyan held Murong Jiu's hand tightly.

What more can a husband ask for when his wife is like this?

The two people's beliefs are almost the same.

On the evening of the second day, the flying eagle brought back a letter, reporting the reason why the sea monkeys massacred the people.

The reason was outrageous. It turned out that when the fleet of the Sea Monkey Kingdom passed by Sabin County and docked, a prince on the fleet fell in love with the county magistrate's daughter and wanted to force her onto the ship after giving her some silver.

The magistrate of Sabin County was not the kind of man who would sell his daughter for fame and fortune, so he firmly disagreed. Because the other party tried to snatch her away by force, an armed conflict broke out.

The county magistrate had his own priorities, and since the other party had revealed his identity, he naturally did not dare to take any ruthless action, lest he become the source of hostility between the two countries.

But the prince only suffered a minor injury, and he felt that his status and position were being looked down upon, so he led his men to launch a sneak attack at night, broke into the county magistrate's house, killed the county magistrate with his own hands, and raped the county magistrate's daughter in public. His subordinates also followed suit and their behavior was extremely bad.

When the people saw this tragic scene, they were furious, because in their eyes the county magistrate was a good official and an upright ruler, and the young lady was also kind and generous, but she had suffered such a tragic scene. They all spontaneously picked up hoes and axes and rushed over.

The conflict escalated, but although the civilians outnumbered them, they were no match for these sea robbers, and more than 300 people died in the end.

It was not the more than a hundred people mentioned at the beginning.
