Chapter 901: Building a Kingdom

Leng Zhuo has been very frustrated recently, especially because he was brainwashed by Duke Wei every day, which made him feel a shadow.

The empire has been established for more than 500 years, and there are not many people loyal to the empire. Even under Leng Zhuo, if he really raises a flag to rebel, perhaps people will be in a state of turmoil. Maybe someone will fight against him once he is instigated. This is definitely not an unfair worry.

Especially during the period when Duke Wei was in Zhuque City, he often wandered around the military camp. You should know that Duke Wei had led his troops for more than 30 years and was appointed as the imperial marshal of the imperial commander several times. In addition, he had been the dean of the Shengtian Academy for more than 20 years, so he had a great influence in the army.

Fortunately, when Leng Zhuo accepted the imperial guards and went south to Chuzhou, he did not ask for the generals above the camp. Otherwise, there would be a lot of people standing on the side of Duke Wei at this time. Secondly, there were many forces still loyal to the empire in the local area.

The Tang Empire before the Tianlong Empire had a weak royal family, which led to separatist rule in the late Tang Dynasty, conquering each other, and completely in chaos. However, there were not many people who actually wanted to overthrow the Tang Empire with flags. At least on the surface, they still maintained the Tang cloak. This was not a matter of strength, but caused by thousands of years of ethics.

Especially in the Tianlong Dynasty, the great saint Kong Yan strengthened the etiquette and principles. For hundreds of years, literati in the world have been regarded as sacred scriptures. Loyalty, faithfulness, etiquette and morality are deeply rooted in people's hearts. If you don't mention it in other places, just talk about Chuzhou.

There were many people rebels in Chuzhou, but they were all people, including nobles, landlords and clans, but there were no scribes, and even some places, due to the resistance of scribes, many family extermination incidents. Even if the nobles and aristocrats and clan rebels can gain a temporary advantage, it is difficult for them to rule the area.

The big reason why Leng Zhuo was able to occupy Chuzhou was that Leng Zhuo was able to capture cities and territory with the banner of the empire and occupy the title of righteousness in this way. After the establishment of the government, countless talents were invested, helping Leng Zhuo establish a basic ruling system and stabilize the ten prefectures of Chuzhou.

But there is a good way to change this passive situation at the founding ceremony, which is to take advantage of the promise of Wang Ru, a brother of different surnames, to jointly rule the country. As long as Leng Zhuo grasps this point, it is equivalent to occupying the truth and no one can do anything to him.

Despite this, it is equivalent to openly dividing the empire and forming a country, which is similar to rebellion and self-esteem. It is just a turn. To put it nicely, the effect is very different.

The latter is called rebellion, and everyone in the world will kill him, while the former is called imperial court, which is the empire nodded and promised you to establish a country. When doing business, literati like to take off their pants and fart, and the worst is a layer of fig leaf. With this, Leng Zhuo can establish a team that is loyal to himself.

The government of the government does not have to be in the military and horse office. It is not a bad person and does not even have a serious official position. However, there will be a lot of trouble in building this country, which may cause a stir and shock Kyushu.

"Yes, build a kingdom. With this country, we don't need to look at the empire's expression. In the future, Your Highness and Emperor Situ Hao will be on an equal footing. He can't try to suppress Your Highness with the title of Dayi, let alone issue an order like this and force you to submit. Even Duke Wei can't tell you a lesson!"

Nangong Yuhu's eyes were almost laughing and she was like a trick. Nangong Yuhu used his tricks to play, but he was not inferior to Situ Xue. The only thing worse was that Nangong Yuhu's ambition was not that great, but in terms of **, it was not inferior at all.

Wei Zhilan hummed twice, obviously a little dissatisfied with Nangong Yuhu carrying his grandfather out at this time: "The establishment of a kingdom is too much involved, and there is no precedent for this matter. Doing so will cause a lot of shock. The situation that has finally stabilized in the local and military may be in chaos again!"

"Zhilan, you should also know the ambition of our husband. Although he is now under the empire, he is not a ruthless thing. Now the empire is in chaos, so there is a place for his husband. Once the empire quells the chaos again, the first thing he needs to target is his husband. If he does not rebel, he will have to rebel. But then we will be passively beaten! Moreover, the empire comes with great momentum, and many fences will fall over. Don't forget that the empire has been in power for hundreds of years and has a great righteousness. But this is enough to be worth millions of troops."

"So, we have to prepare for the future. Establishing a kingdom is the best opportunity. This was personally enfeoffed by the empire. Although there has been no precedent for hundreds of years, what's wrong? What we want is that promise and preservation. With this reason, our husband can pull a team that truly belongs to us!"

"With this foundation, even if the empire turns against each other in the future, we will not be afraid, because at that time, we will not be traitors, but an equal country, and there will be a name for fighting wars. We must seize this opportunity now, otherwise when the empire breathes, there will be no such a good opportunity!"

This is what the bold Nangong Yuhu dared to say. The other women present all opened their eyes and listened. Even Wei Zhilan didn't know where to refute it, because the proposal of founding the country was too tempting, and they actually accepted what Nangong Yuhu said in their hearts. It seemed that founding the country was not a big rebellion, because there was the promise of the founding emperor and it was carved on the main monument of the Tianlong Ceremony, which no one could refute.

Although this article has become an empty article for hundreds of years afterwards, there is a lot of articles to do because Leng Zhuo is not a direct royal family.

"This matter cannot be delayed. We must strike while the iron is hot, but we must also be prepared. Once I announce the establishment of the kingdom, it will definitely cause a big shock. Whether we can withstand it will determine our future!"

"Leave the propaganda matters to our secretariat. I will make you, the king, legitimate and accept this newly built country. However, the most important thing is the army. As long as the army is stable, even if Chuzhou is shaken, it will not hurt its muscles. Once we go there and spend this time, we can exchange for a new life!"

Leng Zhuo nodded, stood up and said, "I will summon the generals of each army immediately. This time I will come to try people's hearts and see who is truly loyal to me, Leng Zhuo!"

After leaving the backyard, Leng Zhuo came directly to the government and summoned all his think tanks to talk about the founding of the country. Although the think tanks here did not know that the empire had this, they all agreed after hearing the possibility of founding of the country and began to work together to prepare as much as possible for this founding of the country.

Time is very hurrying, Leng Zhuo only gave himself three days. Three days, which seemed a bit rushed for Jianguo, and even a bit of a play, but they all felt very hurrying for them, so those who heard this news would definitely be very sudden.

Leng Zhuo didn't have much time to prepare, and Situ Xue and even Situ Hao from the Imperial Capital were even less prepared. After they digested this, the overwhelming publicity of the founding of the country was followed. Leng Zhuo believed that everything he did in Chuzhou was enough to deal with this.

The founding of the country was led by Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong himself, and Nangong Yuhu even summoned a group of scholars from the Nangong family to stuff them into a small black room, and made every effort to establish Leng Zhuo and become the king to support the king. The whole city printed books, and even the movable type printing press for gold and silver bills, began to rotate day and night, just after Leng Zhuo stood up and announced the founding of the country, he was distributed everywhere.

The convening of military generals from all over the country is still continuing. After the founding of the country, the message will be transmitted for a while, so Leng Zhuo has enough time to make various arrangements to mobilize troops and prevent mutiny in the army.

In the 1950s and 1960s, history ushered in a heartbeat day. This farce-like founding day became another great empire after the Tianlong Empire, the Great Chu Empire, more than ten years later.

Historical books have mixed reviews about the founding of the country on this day, but it was from this day that the Great Chu Empire took shape and laid the foundation for future hegemony.

On November 10th, the breeze is smooth and the sun is no longer as hot as summer, and everything looks very refreshing.

The day before yesterday, all the well-known families in Zhuque City received an invitation from the Military Envoy's Mansion. Although everyone felt puzzled when they received this invitation, they all went out on time before the agreed time, and did not dare to neglect the slightest.

Zhuque City, the largest square, is built at the south gate of the inner city. It is not only the north-south central axis, but also the intersection with the east-west main street. Today, the city gate has countless soldiers with distinctive armor, occupying the south gate of the city, and there are also soldiers standing guard around the square.

Countless wealthy businessmen from Zhuque City gathered here and gained a place in front of the south gate of the city, while most of the square was open to civilians.

"Hey, why are there so many people gathering in front of you? Is it fun to watch?" A pedestrian looked at the crowded crowd in front of him and couldn't help but hold a small vendor and asked.

The vendor replied with a smile: "I don't know, but there are many people here, and it happens to be sold. There is no military master there. Go over there and ask!"

People like to join in the fun. Although they don’t know what happened, as more and more people gathered, more and more people squeezed here. When people gathered, it was naturally a matter of Zhang’s family and Li’s family. They all guessed that they were both noses and eyes, as if everyone knew the inside story.

"What are you doing this early in the morning?" Beicheng Mingyue was also confused, but when she thought of her niece's expression that seemed to be hiding, it seemed that today's affairs were a bit unusual.

"Master of the Nangong Family, you are here too!" Mingyue in Beicheng sat down for a moment and saw Nangong Lie being led over. Of course, they were not sitting at the bottom of the city, but at the top of the city.

"Yes, I don't know what happened. I sent the air cavalry to Yangzhou overnight and called me up in the middle of the night. Looking at the crowded crowds, could something big happened?"

"You are that boy's father-in-law. You don't know, how could I know!"

"Oh, what did that girl Bing Xin say to you?"

"What, what did that girl Yuhu tell you?"

Nangong Lie shook his head and said, "I didn't say anything. After I came, I went to find that girl, but I didn't even see anyone, and I don't know what the hell!"

"I didn't think about it anymore, just wait and see!" Beicheng Mingyue said, and before she could sit down, she saw that the new head of the Dongfang family was also attracted.

"All the people who come to the Dongfang family are here? Why do I feel that something bad is going to happen!" Beicheng Mingyue said with her eyelids twitching.
