Chapter 364 Why Is the Emperor Unhappy? (Please Subscribe)
The next day, the Nan'an County Prince's Palace announced the death of the contemporary Nan'an County Prince.
As soon as the news came out, it immediately caused a shock in the entire officialdom of the capital!
That's the Prince of Nan'an County!
Controlling the entire southwest region and commanding an army of 100,000, he is truly the king of the southwest!
It's really hard to accept that he died like this. There was no news about it before, right?
Although Prince Nan'an was defeated and captured, no one thought that his life would be in danger.
Just kidding, there is no deep hatred between Daqian and Qianxiang Kingdom, so there is no need to kill a big boss like Nan'an County King.
On the contrary, if done properly, the benefits can be astonishing.
In fact, Qian Xiangguo also operates in this way!
They sent envoys to conduct secret negotiations with Daqian.
The so-called secret is basically known to ordinary people and officials in the capital.
Originally, the negotiations had come to fruition, but who knew that Jia Huan would win the battle in the southwest.
In this way, the previous peace talks will naturally be invalidated.
It was originally thought that there would be another peace talk, but no one expected that it didn't take long for the Nan'an County Prince's Mansion to spread the news that the Prince was dead.
While the officials were surprised, they also had to lament that barbarians are barbarians and they don't know how to adapt at all.
Of course, for Jia Huan who caused such a result, he kept praising him on the surface, but he probably didn't know how to arrange it in his heart. After all, what he did caused the death of a powerful prince of the opposite sex.
Didn't you say that Rong Mansion and Nan'an County Prince's Mansion have a good relationship? How could such an oolong incident happen?
That is to say, if Jia Huan was not in the capital, if he heard such words, he would probably yell "ridiculous"!
Is it child's play for two countries to fight?
Mobilizing 100,000 troops, almost all the mobile men and horses in the southwest region were mobilized!
In a battle of this scale, isn't it hard to accept that a king of the opposite sex will die?
The most surprised person is undoubtedly the current emperor.
When the emperor saw the letter from the Prince of Nan'an County, asking him to make the crown prince the new Prince of Nan'an County, he had a rare look of confusion on his face: "What's going on?"
Dai Quan, who was standing nearby, hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, not long ago the Nan'an County Prince's Palace announced the death of the previous Nan'an Prince!"
"What, the Prince of Nan'an County did this?"
Now he was a little surprised: "Before that, wouldn't it be a joke to pay such a high price to save Prince Nan'an?"
Dai Quan naturally didn't answer this, and he didn't know how to answer.
Obviously not needing an answer now, he frowned and murmured: "It should have been like this a long time ago!"
"Is it too late to announce the death of Prince Nan'an now?"
When he said this, there was an unconcealable sneer on his face, and a look of disdain flashed in his eyes.
Previously, in order to persuade him, the old concubine Nan'an offered a lot of benefits.
Even if the peace talks and marriage are unsuccessful in the end, the benefits that should be given must not be less.
The emperor's face is not so easy to beat!
"Tell me, what exactly happened in Nan'an County Prince's Mansion? There can be no warning at all!"
Today, he quickly reacted and asked directly: "There should be news from Jinyi Mansion, right?" ’
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Dai Quan hurriedly replied: "Just yesterday, among the eight founding prince families, except for Ning Rong and Ning Rong, the principals of the other six mansions all gathered at the Nan'an County Prince's Mansion!"
"They can't keep their anger!"
Now Leng Ran said: "It's not that simple to take advantage!"
With that said, he put the fold aside first.
He has no intention of being a bad person, but if Nan'an County Prince's Palace doesn't provide him with sufficient benefits, it's impossible for him to agree easily. Rules are rules.
"Let the people in Jinyi Mansion keep an eye on it!"
Jin Jin warned: "If anything like this happens again in the future, report it as soon as possible!"
After saying that, it’s time to start reading the memorial.
That afternoon, the old concubine Nan'an entered the palace.
No one knew what kind of deal this woman had reached with the current emperor. In short, when she left the palace, the old concubine looked very ugly, as if her face was covered with ice and she was unhappy.
But the next day, Jinjin approved the candidate for the new Nan'an County King very quickly!
The emergence of the new Nan'an County Prince naturally caused a shock in the officialdom of the capital!
It is a pity that the civil service group has not expressed any response to this, as if such a thing has not happened.
until……
"A great victory, a great victory in the southwest!"
"Uncle Dingyuan led his army to defeat the Qianxiang Kingdom's invading army and drove them all out of the southwest border!"
"A great victory, a great victory in the southwest, and countless prisoners captured!"
Messengers rushed eight hundred miles to deliver the message, shouting loudly while galloping on their horses, and rushed in directly from the gate of the capital.
All of a sudden, the whole capital was in a sensation.
No one expected that the combat effectiveness of Jia Huan and his army would be so powerful!
The last time, it was just a confrontation at the border with the invading army of the Qianxiang Kingdom. Now they have successfully defeated the enemy and successfully driven them away.
Such a record is a sure victory!
The news spread into the palace immediately and reached the ears of the current emperor!
"Okay, okay, Uncle Dingyuan really did not disappoint me. Sure enough, he is also a tiger general!"
The current emperor was overjoyed, with a happy smile on his face, and he felt happier than ever.
Jia Huan's battle directly cleared away the stains on his current martial arts.
This is definitely a very happy thing for today.
"Your Majesty, the Prince of Nan'an County also has six family members of the founding fathers who want to see you!"
At this time, Dai Quan hurried over and reported in a low voice.
"Well, what a coincidence?"
Nowadays, he was stunned for a moment, and then he immediately reacted, his face suddenly became solemn: "Did they do this intentionally?"
If this is the case, then Jia Huan, who is far in the southwest, is also involved.
Thinking of this, today's mood immediately sank, and I felt unspeakably unhappy.
"Let them come!"
Now Leng Ran said: "I would like to see what exactly they want to do?"
After a while, the new Prince of Nan'an County, who was only fourteen or fifteen years old, and all the heads of the other six Duke families except Ning Rong's second mansion among the Eight Founding Dukes came.
After the greetings, let’s get straight to the point!
The first is the young prince, who directly requested orders from the current emperor and planned to go to the southwest territory to take charge.
Today, he is dissatisfied and directly expresses that the war in the southwest has just subsided, and the new Nan'an County King is too young. It will be dangerous to go there at this time, so it is better to wait.
Immediately, the head of the founding family said that they could send elite personnel to help the Nan'an County Prince and go to the southwest to control the chaotic situation and quickly restore peace there.
Today Qingxiao said bluntly that the imperial court has made plans to send officials and troops into the southwest region.
There are already some southwest regions that can adapt to the direct rule of the imperial court. There is no doubt about this.
A noble man spoke slowly: "It is reasonable for the imperial court to send officials and troops to the areas that Your Majesty values, but I don't know how many prefectures and counties there are?"
"In addition, after all, the southwest region is far away from the center of the court, and the number of Han people there does not constitute an absolute majority. Moreover, most of the southwest region has high mountains and dense forests, and the environment is harsh. Officials sent by the court cannot manage it well. Nan'an County Prince's Palace is still needed cooperative!"
Now nodding his head in approval, he directly stated that the imperial court would only take over one or two states close to the hinterland of the south, and the remaining areas would still be governed by the Nan'an County Prince's Palace.
There is no other way, Tiannan is an absolutely remote area, and not many officials are willing to go there.
It's not that he doesn't want to be an official, but he is worried that he will be forgotten by the court after he passes, and will be directly destined to die in the southwest. That would be really miserable.
The same is true for the troops sent there!
In the eyes of the officials and the people, Tiannan is definitely a desolate place on the frontier and cannot be stayed for a long time.
Under such circumstances, it is impossible to send people by force today.
Being able to occupy several elite state capitals is already quite satisfying.
The new Nan'an County Prince and other heads of noble families did not expect to be so easy to talk to today.
Now that their goal has been achieved, they have no thoughts and intentions of wrestling with today's people.
As for the division of territorial interests in the rest of the southwest, that is a matter within the forces of the founding fathers.
Not to mention others, even if you want to intervene now, it is not feasible.
They hurriedly stood up to thank the emperor for his generosity, and then left the palace with faces full of joy.
"Huh, there really was some connection in advance!"
Now, looking at the departing figures of a group of noble men, his face suddenly became very ugly, and he murmured to himself in a low voice: "Jia Huan, Jia Huan, don't let me down!"
The performance of the distinguished bosses just now has already explained many problems.
If there was really no one available, Jia Huan would be transferred back from the southwest immediately, and he would sit on the bench from now on, without any chance of making a comeback.
Again, what is lost is the interests of the Nan'an County Prince's Mansion, so that the current mentality can remain stable.
If Jia Huan has other conditions, such as wanting to obtain a title with real territory, he may be the first to find a way to kill Jia Huan.
On the other hand, Ning Rong's Second Mansion has nothing to do with this matter on the surface, which is one of the reasons why there has been no outbreak today.
If nothing else, at least the attitude of Ning Rong's second mansion is acceptable!
On the other side, the new Prince of Nan'an County, who had left the palace, and the heads of the six founding families rushed to the Palace of Nan'an County Prince to discuss the division of the southwest territory.
Soon, they were standing in front of the topographical map of the southwest region, clearly allocating the territory they were about to acquire.
Among them, the two largest pieces of land are three or four states and counties in size. They are also border areas and are classified as the territory of Ningrong Second Prefecture.
They believed that if the territory of Ningrong Second Mansion was placed in the border area, it would definitely not be able to develop.
But the happy nobles didn't know that at this time, Jia Huan had occupied a large area of territory in Qianxiang Kingdom, and it happened to be linked to the divided territory, which was definitely a rare good thing.
