I have 800,000 private soldiers. The emperor forces me to hand over military power?

Chapter 172 The King of Jin sent envoys to visit Jiangnan

When the Daxin Prime Minister Qin Ruhui and his party members launched a coup in Jinling City, intending to depose the Daxin Lingwu Emperor and establish a new emperor, the Jin King Chen Huaian also embarked on his return to his fiefdom, Longcheng.

It was the second day of June in the second year of Daxin Lingwu.

Chen Huaian returned lightly packed, and was overtaken by Dragon City's internal guards who hurriedly came from Jinling City in Jincheng, less than a hundred miles away from the fiefdom of Dragon City.

"Your Highness——"

The person who came was Luo Yucheng, the deputy commander of the Dragon City Internal Guard. His other identity was that he was a member of the Bai Hu under the command of Fang Tianyao, the admiral of the Daxin Navy.

It must be of great importance to allow the deputy commander of the Dragon City Internal Guard to rush back to Dragon City in person to report to His Highness King Jin, even at the risk of exposing his identity.

drive!

drive!

drive!

Call——

Luo Yucheng came on horseback, and finally reined in the horse next to Jin King Chen Huaian, and stopped the horse.

When he was about to get off his horse and kneel down to Chen Huaian, he was stopped by Chen Huaian: "Luo Yucheng, there is no need to go through such red tape;"

"For you to catch up with me personally from Jinling City at night and under the stars, something big must have happened in Jinling City. Let's talk about it directly!"

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Luo Yucheng took a few deep breaths, adjusted his breath, and said word by word: "Your Highness, the traitor Qin Ruhui launched a coup in Jinling City three days ago;"

"Su Chen, the governor of Liangjiang, led 50,000 Liangjiang troops to attack the imperial city. He Changdong, the commander of the Royal Forest Army, protected the empress dowager Su Waner and the young emperor Zhao Lingwu and escaped from the palace and took refuge with the naval admiral Fang Tianyao!"

Um?

Chen Huaian frowned slightly, but the expression on his face did not change.

Chen Huaian had long expected that the treacherous prime minister Qin Ruhui would launch a coup to force the palace to go to the palace, but it was only a matter of time.

On the contrary, Chen Huaian was a little surprised when Su Waner, the Queen Mother of the current dynasty, took the young emperor Zhao Lingwu to seek refuge with the Navy Admiral Fang Tianyao.

In his impression, Navy Admiral Fang Tianyao was a master who never let go of rabbits or hawks.

To make him break up with Qin Ruhui and come forward to protect the safety of Queen Mother Su and the little emperor, Queen Mother Su must have offered him some price that he couldn't refuse, right?

Chen Huaian smiled and said: "Luo Yucheng, if I guess correctly, Queen Mother Su and Fang Tianyao have reached some kind of agreement, so that Fang Tianyao would not hesitate to become Qin Ruhui's enemy, but also to protect Queen Mother Su and Xiao The emperor’s safety?”

"Your Highness, you really know things like a god!"

Luo Yucheng cupped his hands to Jin Wang Chen Huaian and continued: "Your Highness, the Queen Mother Su has reached an agreement with Fang Tianyao, as long as Fang Tianyao can protect the safety of the Queen Mother and the Emperor;"

"After Wu Sanjia leads his troops to Beijing to serve the king and quells the coup initiated by Qin Ruhui, Queen Mother Su will issue an edict in the name of Emperor Daxin Lingwu;"

"Consecrate Fang Tianyao as the King of the Four Seas, and award all the sea areas outside the territory of the Great New Dynasty to Fang Tianyao, and the court will pay Fang Tianyao all the naval expenses required every year;"

"In other words, this Fang Tianyao will become the legitimate king of the sea!"

snort!

Hearing this, Chen Huaian snorted coldly and said with disdain:

"Su Waner is a prodigal bitch. Emperor Gaozu and my father, the older generation, fought with all their lives to conquer this great new country. She just put her lips together and gave up the territory of the sea. Fang Tianyao, the pirate leader?”

"What else will happen if a woman is in charge of the house and the house falls down?"

Of course, this is just Chen Huaian complaining about Su Waner.

In fact, from the moment Qi Jiguang and the Qi Jiajun of the Dragon City Navy led by him were born, it was already destined that there could only be one king in the four seas of this new dynasty—that is, the King of Jin Chen Huaian!

Those bullshit Four Sea Kings like Fang Tianyao are nothing more than a stepping stone on the way for the Dragon City navy army to set sail on its journey to the stars and the sea.

After a pause, Chen Huaian continued to ask: "Luo Yucheng, after the Queen Mother Su and the young emperor received Fang Tianyao's protection, how did Qin Ruhui react when the news came out?"

Luo Yucheng replied without thinking: "Back to Your Highness, Qin Ruhui is making two plans;"

"On the one hand, he sent Luo Yuanji, the Secretary of the Ministry of Household Affairs, to the fiefdom of King Fu to welcome back Zhao Lingzhan, the son of King Fu, and prepared to announce the dethronement of Emperor Lingwu in Jinling City and support Zhao Lingzhan on the throne;"

"On the other hand, Qin Ruhui also sent envoys to Nanyue and Nanzhao to seek help from Guangxin King Li Zongmin and Pingxi King Murongfu;"

"Trying to persuade Li Zongmin and Murong Fu, who have already proclaimed themselves emperor, to jointly send troops to deal with Wu Sanjia, who went south to Beijing to rescue King Qin!"

oh?

As soon as he heard the news, Chen Huaian's expression suddenly lit up, showing strong interest, and said: "If you didn't tell me, I would have almost forgotten that there are two clowns, Li Zongmin and Mu Rongfu!"

"From this point of view, this grand drama of the new dynasty's coup is becoming more and more exciting and interesting!"

Chen Huaian asked again: "How did the aristocratic families in the Jiangnan region react to the palace coup in Jinling City?"

Luo Yucheng replied: "Back to Your Highness, currently all the aristocratic families in the Jiangnan region are sitting on the fence and watching, and there are also some who privately recruit soldiers and train them into armies."

"Generally speaking, the aristocratic families in the Jiangnan region still tend to favor the orthodox Great New Dynasty!"

Um!

Chen Huaian nodded and said: "It's time for me to consider sending a special envoy to Jiangnan to promote my policy agenda!"

As he spoke, Chen Huaian suddenly changed the subject and said sternly: "Luo Yucheng!"

"The general is here!"

Luo Yucheng on horseback straightened his back as if he had been electrocuted, waiting for the king's order.

Chen Huaian ordered: "From now on, I will promote you as the special envoy of the King of Jin. You will go to the south of the Yangtze River with my king's tokens and handwritings, and secretly make friends with the three idle kings of different surnames in the south of the Yangtze River, as well as various aristocratic families;"

"Promote to them my policy agenda and philosophy of governing the country. If they can declare their allegiance to me at the right time, I can preserve their privileges and interests in the Jiangnan region;"

"I hope they will put the people of the world first and not resist needlessly, let alone follow the new dynasty that is rotten to the core and end this melee as soon as possible!"

"The general will get the order!"
