Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower-Chapter 2563: Emperor Yang Zhou’s Inauguration

Long Qian Xing coughed dryly and glanced at Nan Hua beside him helplessly.

It seemed that he had indeed forgotten about this.

Nan Hua shook her head and said, "It's fine, Great General Wei."

Great General Wei looked at the two of them and nodded, not wanting to care about this matter. freёnovelkiss.com

Afterwards, they talked about the city construction progress, which was doing quite well lately. With the help of many people, Ying City had developed rapidly and many nobles had also arrived, waiting to claim some land for their future development.

For this matter, the officials were happy.

Because they could sell the land and obtained a lot of money to these nobles. Who would not like the fact that they could get some bonuses?

Besides, there were indeed a lot of open land in Ying City after rapid expansion in the city construction.

"How about Qi Xi Kingdom's take over progress?" Long Qian Xing asked another question. When he left, the negotiation was already over but the handover of power was not complete yet.

There were still many things that needed time to be fully integrated to FeI Yang Kingdom.

"The core power has been handed over. Prime Minister Hao from Qi Xi Kingdom is already in Ying City. The people who controlled the cities in the areas formerly belonged to Qi Xi Kingdom have been changed," Great General Wei replied.

"Don't ask me the details. I don't pay much attention to it."

After all, Great General Wei is a general instead of an official. Even if he did pay some attention to the progress, he would not pay complete attention to them and only know bits and pieces.

But this knowledge was more than enough for him to guess the political direction and if there would be something that might affect him.

"Ok." Long Qian Xing nodded.

Since they have already handed over the power, it meant that next year Emperor Yang Zhou could fully focus on the north border and the northern tribe.

It seemed that he would have to find some time to investigate the situation at the north border. Even if he had sent some people to spy into Fan Yi Kingdom back then, he didn't know much about the north border's situation.

After all, it was not necessary at that time.

What he needed to know at that time was the time when the northern tribe come and attack Fan Yi Kingdom. If he knew that, he would know that Fan Yi Kingdom would have to split their soldiers, dedicating half of it to protect Fan Yi Kingdom.

In the last war between Fei Yang Kingdom and Fan Yi Kingdom, many soldiers remained on the north border because they have just been attacked by the northern tribe the year before.

Afterwards, General Yang didn't allow the commanders under him to leave.

They stayed at the north border until they finally negotiated and switched side to Fei Yang Kingdom.

The three of them talked about a few more things before Long Qian Xing and Nan Hua left. They wanted to rest for the day and then watched the grand ceremony the next day. If they were not wrong, the ceremony would start from early morning, so they need to have enough rest.

…

<Ying City, Emperor Yang Zhou's side>

Emperor Yang Zhou was busy in the past few months. After the discussion with the two prime ministers about who they should send to the cities that previously belonged to Qi Xi Kingdom, he has been staying in the palace and worked on various matters.

The good thing was that the construction of Ying City was going well.

The bad thing was that there were many reports about things that happened miles away from the capital city.

Even with the road built during the war and still continued to be built, the news arrived late to Ying City.

This undoubtedly troubled Emperor Yang Zhou.

The news that arrived here was something that happened two days ago.

Two days…

The daylily was cold.

Many things would have changed when the news arrived on Emperor Yang Zhou's side.

And the main reason was that there was no transportation methods that could allow them to deliver the news to the capital city in time. Moreover, the capital city that Emperor Yang Zhou picked this time was located further to the north.

Many things that happened at the south could be said to arrive late.

But even if Emperor Yang Zhou was troubled, he had no intention of setting the same method as Zhang Xu Kingdom in the past. They ordered people to go to the north and south, essentially dividing the land.

With time, these people not only divided the land but also expanded it further.

Even though the emperors who lead Zhang Xu Kingdom were dissatisfied, they couldn't do anything much. The power grown by these appointed 'kings' was getting bigger and bigger.

Eventually, war broke out.

It resulted in several kingdoms forming and eventually ended as 6 kingdoms.

Now, Emperor Yang Zhou finally united all the land under one rule. Not only that, the territory had expanded even further from the era when Zhang Xu Kingdom was the one who ruled it many centuries ago.

The history record was not complete, so Emperor Yang Zhou didn't know the details.

But he knew very well that all kingdoms had formed their own expansion one after another. After all, We Da Kingdom used to be the east border of Zhang Xu Kingdom and Fan Yi Kingdom had expanded further to the north.

It could be said that its expansion more than one century ago was one of the reasons why the battle against the northern tribe was getting fiercer.

They breached the territory that could belong to the northern tribe!

But even without this expansion, the northern tribe would still attack them because they had done it several centuries before this expansion.

So, the main problem was simply the problem of profit and resources.
