Heaven

The spring of 1247 in the Celestial Calendar.

Jing Hao finally led his army to break through Danyang, the capital of the Qi State, and the voices of his generals for him to be called emperor are getting louder day by day...

Jing Xuan considered the pros and cons of becoming emperor. On the one hand, he needed a legitimate position to continue commanding and recruiting various rebel armies. On the other hand, he had to prevent the imbalance of subordinate forces, and he also had to prevent the surrounding countries from taking the opportunity to attack.

Alas... First of all, we still need to obtain the recognition of a big country...

Jing Yan sent away the envoy of Jing Guo with his eyes above his head, and let out a sigh of relief.

He made a request to Emperor Jing three months ago to form an alliance with his relatives.But... want to be my queen?Jing Yan sneered in his heart, do you want to take this opportunity to control the soon-to-be-established country through marriage?He is not willing to be a pawn of Ji Zhihuang.

"Your Majesty, what kind of treasure is that heavenly and human secret treasure you gave to Chu?"

Even as the number one military advisor under Jing Yan's command, Lu Yuanchen found that he still couldn't see through the true thoughts of this young man who was many years younger than himself.

Is this the unfathomable power of the sky?

Back then, he thought highly of himself and would easily accept Jing Hao's invitation, maybe because he saw the impressive unique majesty in this person?

Jing Yan entertained Jing Guo's envoys with the best standards, but he was still unwilling to let go of marrying Jing Guo Princess as his queen.He finally took out a secret treasure that was claimed to be used by the Queen of Heaven and Man and gave it to the envoy as a compensation.

Lu Yuanchen didn't think that Jing Yan, who was born in a humble place, could really own such an ancestral treasure, but after secretly researching it with his half-baked antique appreciation experience, he really found that the seemingly wooden box was hundreds of years old. History, the pattern on it is also the cloud bat pattern that can only be used by the Queen of Yuguo.

It is said that it can increase the chances of conception of the descendants of heaven and man?What the hell is this thing?Lu Yuanchen couldn't help being aroused a little bit of curiosity.

"I said Brother Lu, I haven't proclaimed myself emperor yet, so you should call me Xiao Jingde. Your Majesty, it sounds awkward." Jing Yan said with a chuckle, "You mean that box? That's really Cong Yu The treasure handed down from the imperial palace!" And it is the secret treasure handed down by the Queen of Heaven and Human to the Wangfu's family... the box outside, he added in his heart.

"Using this can really make the descendants of heaven and man easy to conceive?" Lu Yuanchen asked in surprise.It is very simple for a man descended from heaven and man to impregnate an ordinary person, but for a woman descended from heaven and man to conceive offspring, it is almost very difficult except when the other party has many more imprints than himself.

But... thinking that the Queen of Heaven, as a real celestial being, was able to give birth to ten sons for the husband of the king, maybe there really is such a secret treasure?Lu Yuanchen stroked his beard and felt that this treasure was given away too easily by Jing Hao, and he should be able to win more benefits.We must know that there is no royal family in the world who has some blood of heaven and man. For the sake of the descendants of the royal family, such a secret treasure can definitely be sold for a "good price"!

"What do you think?" Jing Yan smiled mysteriously, and patted Lu Yuanchen's shoulder after a while, "Even I don't know. But the age is right, maybe there is such a magical effect... ..."

"Ah! Your majesty is wise, your majesty is wise!" Lu Yuanchen had a sudden realization on his face.Indeed, even if there is no such miraculous effect, it will take many years to see it, and by then the most vulnerable moment in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic will have passed.

The two looked at each other and smiled, there was a kind of joy that the trick was successful, and everything was unspoken.

"When Princess Jing arrives, will His Majesty ascend the throne on the day of the wedding?" Lu Yuanchen suddenly had a sad expression on his face, "However, the brothers below are a little restless recently..."

"These boys, the wild horses can't hold the reins once they enter the capital!" Jing Yan snorted coldly with some dissatisfaction, "Emperor Qi just fled north and is not dead yet, he still has tens of thousands of horses under his command , they can’t sit still anymore?”

"Ah... Who's to say it's not, but it's not hard for the big guy to look forward to the day when His Majesty proclaims himself emperor, and he should be happy. It's just..." Lu Yuanchen hesitated to speak.

"Just what?" Jing Yan said in a deep voice.

"It's just that the brothers are also a little uneasy." Lu Yuanchen said with a bitter face, "Your Majesty recruited Chu Tianshu, the general of Qi State, when he entered the capital, and he hoped to use his prestige to recruit Qi State. An old minister. However, His Majesty also knows that Chu Tianshu is not only a general under King Qi, but also has a pure blood of heaven and man. He accepts disciples, and those who are not descendants of heaven and man will not take them. In addition, His Majesty suddenly asked Jing Guo to marry him. Brothers are all worried that when His Majesty's prince is born in the future, His Majesty will also go down the old road of Qi that only values ​​blood!"

Jing Yan frowned, and said angrily, "What are they guessing about? Hmph, life is too comfortable! Since I won't marry Princess Jing as my queen, naturally I won't make a prince born by her in the future. As a reserve! If you want to talk about the sufferings of those descendants of heaven and man with no talent or virtue, do I have to eat less than them?"

When Lu Yuanchen saw that Jing Yan was angry, he immediately knelt down on the ground: "Your Majesty, that's not what I explained to them. Your Majesty doesn't have a trace of celestial blood in him, so why would he treat outsiders instead of his brothers?" It’s just that His Majesty beheaded a few brothers with tears in order to strictly enforce military discipline, and later reused Chu Tianshu... Alas, people are now rumoring that His Majesty will use Chu Tianshu as a chancellor to restore those clay bodhisattvas Let us bring you into the court again!"

Jing Yan knew in his heart that Lu Yuanchen was far inferior to the famous minister Chu Tianshu in terms of talent.But in terms of mind, there are really not many people in the world who can match him as a dog-headed military advisor, and even he himself is occasionally surrounded by Lu Yuanchen.

That Chu Tianshu is a descendant of a famous family, has made great achievements for generations, is capable of both literature and martial arts, but he is honest and upright, if not for this, he would not stand up to Emperor Qi, and has been "retirement" at home for more than ten years.

Although Lu Yuanchen was originally a penniless scholar, he was extremely sensitive to the overall situation and was very good at guessing people's hearts.He has devoted himself to himself all these years, and he has no bad habit of being greedy for petty gain. In terms of character, he is also considered to be second to none among the rebels.

Jing Yan had no intention of using Chu Tianshu, a madman, but he could understand the intentions of Lu Yuanchen and a group of brothers who had been following him.He is not a narrow-minded person, and he will never do things that are full of birds. He will never withhold what should be given.Of course, he will definitely not let go of what should be beaten.

"Brother Lu, your Lian'er will be nineteen this year, right?" Jing Yan suddenly changed the topic, and asked about his younger sister who was greatly different from Lu Yuanchen in age, and who was brought up by him since childhood.

Lu Lian'er had already reached the age of marriage, but Lu Yuanchen said that he wanted to take care of his younger sister for a few more years, and wait for the world to be peaceful before discussing marriage. He has never accepted anyone's dowry.If it is said that the innocent girl's admiring eyes towards him are all from the heart, what my old brother thinks in his heart may not be so simple.

As soon as Lu Yuanchen heard Jing Yan's words, he immediately understood: "No, Lian'er is not young anymore. It's funny, but she actually told me that she has seen too many real heroes like His Majesty, and those who come to propose marriage Young talents, I don't even like any of them. I'm really worried about her marriage, oh..."

"Then why don't you enter the palace with the princess of Jing Kingdom!" Jing Yan patted Lu Yuanchen on the shoulder, "Brother, if I want to talk about my title, I can only give Lian Er a noble concubine first. In the current situation, you are also You know, it looks like everything is going well, but in fact, there are internal and external troubles. I really need the support of Jing Guo, so I can't let Lian Er overwhelm the princess of Jing Guo for the time being! But you must understand in your heart that my affection for Lian Er is dear Like brother and sister. If she enters the palace, I will definitely not treat her badly!"

"Oh, what Your Majesty said! That's what you said! This is really a great blessing for Lian Er! I want to go back and tell her, yes, yes, I will go back now. Oh, happy event, great happy event Ah!" Lu Yuanchen's face was full of surprise, and he was so moved that he almost shed tears.

"Wait!"

"His Majesty?"

"Let me tell you first, you have been busy arranging the founding ceremony these two days, but you still have to take some time to look at the official systems of various countries and come up with a plan for me. Alas, the burden of the prime minister is a bit heavy, Brother, you have to help me carry it!"

Hearing Jing Yan's words, Lu Yuanchen was overjoyed, and immediately grinned and knelt on the ground and gave an out-of-the-ordinary thank you ceremony.

Jing Yan rubbed his chin, and watched with some amusement as his military division stumbled out after he waved his hand.

He lowered his head and counted the days, and found that it had been almost a year since the last time he saw Yan.This mysterious person who comes and goes without a trace will bring new surprises to Jing Ran every time he meets.As soon as Yan's coming day is approaching, Jing Yan always tends to be distracted, and every subtle expression of the other party seems to keep passing by before his eyes.

What will Yan bring to herself this time?

In fact, even if he doesn't bring anything, just seeing him is enough to make people happy!

But this time, Jing Lan seemed destined to be disappointed.

and,

When he is disappointed,

That's two years...
