Volume 1 Chapter 210 Only Five People

Tang Shui answered without any hesitation: "The Governor of Yuanli Province, Deng Yan; the Governor of Ganchang Province, Fang Xinghai; the Governor of Dongwang Province, He Guang; the Governor of Liaogu Province, Zhou Xin; and the Admiral of Weihai, Gan Ce!"

"Deng Yan, Fang Xinghai, He Guang, Zhou Xin, Gan Ce!" Xiang Yun silently recited them in his mind, then frowned and said, "Are these five the only ones who still have the Great Sun Dynasty in their hearts? This really makes me feel uncomfortable!"

After thinking about their respective power, Xiang Yun asked doubtfully, "It's ok that the rest of them have low power, but this Weihai Admiral Gan Ce has a million naval forces under his command and has long managed the Canghai area by himself. He can advance into the Central Plains to seek the throne, or retreat to the Canghai to be the king. He is free and easy. He is the most powerful among all the rebel kings. How could he have the intention to surrender to the Great Sun Dynasty?"

Tang Shui hesitated for a while and then said, "Your Majesty, Gan Ce has indeed never expressed his intention to submit to the court. It is just my unwarranted speculation."

Xiang Yun frowned and narrowed his eyes when he heard this. Just as he was about to explode, he heard Tang Shui explain, "Before I followed Your Majesty, I traveled around the world. I was fortunate enough to meet Gan Ce near Canghai. We had a great conversation and talked about many things in the world.

At that time, his subordinates learned from Gan Ce that the imperial court did not care about him, and his million-strong navy did not even have military pay. He had to be self-sufficient to support these men. If he had the opportunity, he would only be an idle general and not want to take care of too many trivial matters.

Therefore, I presume that if the imperial court truly wants him, he will definitely surrender, provided that..."

Tang Shui teased again before saying, "He must ensure the safety of the millions of navy brothers under his command, and even the food and clothing for their families."

Xiang Yun nodded thoughtfully, and after thinking it over, he said, "If you are really like this, then Gan Ce is just a mediocre person with no ambitions and it is difficult for him to achieve great things."

Tang Shui said: "I don't think so. Gan Ce is not only good at fighting, but also a talented commander. Otherwise, he wouldn't have convinced the million-strong navy. He's just a little lazy and needs someone to force him."

"I didn't expect there are such weirdos in the world!" Xiang Yun murmured softly, with some thoughts in his mind. If he could bring Gan Ce under his command, he would have a million more naval forces for no reason, and would be able to regain control of the Canghai area. This would be of much greater significance.

Controlling the vast ocean would allow for a significant development of the maritime industry. Fishing and shrimping alone would be enough to feed most of the people of the Great Sun Dynasty.

The most important thing is to be able to develop the navy, assemble a large-scale naval fleet, discover new land and islands, and explore for countless resources and treasures such as gold mines, iron mines, copper mines, etc.

Coming from another world, he deeply knows how important the maritime industry is to a country. It is the most advanced economic industry!

Xiang Yun's breathing became rapid when he thought of this. This Gan Ce must be captured!

After thinking for a while, Xiang Yun ordered: "Even so, you go to Gan Ce in person and tell him that if he is willing to submit to me, I will forgive his rebellion and keep his original position. From now on, the salaries of the million navy under his command will be managed by the court!"

"Yes!" Tang Shui was delighted when he heard that and quickly agreed.

Xiang Yun changed the subject and said in a cold voice: "As for the rest, carry out the decapitation operation!"

Tang Shui agreed again without any hesitation, and disappeared on the spot the next moment.

Xiang Yun quickly picked up his pen to draft an imperial edict, sending another letter of surrender to the five rebel kings, asking them to surrender to the imperial court and forgive their past mistakes. As soon as the imperial calendar was distributed to all parts of the dynasty, these imperial edicts would be sent out immediately and placed on the desks of these five rebel kings!

By then, Xiang Yun would no longer believe that they, having lost the support of the people, would still have the capital to compete with the imperial court.

As for the other rebel kings, Xiang Yun thought about it and still felt uneasy about Wu Guotao and Guo Xuan, so he immediately called Qin Su over.

Although Qin Su lived in the harem, when Xiang Yun called her to the imperial study, she knew in her heart that she was not going there for personal matters but for government affairs, so she consciously put on her red armor and came to the imperial study in a heroic manner. Here, her identity was not Concubine Qin, but the General Zhenbei!

When Qin Su came in, Xiang Yun was reading the memorials, so she bowed and said, "Your Majesty!"

Xiang Yun looked up when he heard her voice. Seeing her dressed like this, he felt relieved and said straight to the point, "I am still a little worried about the rebel kings in various places, so I need to send more troops to support them!"

Qin Su smiled slightly and immediately said, "Your Majesty, I am willing to go!"

Xiang Yun also smiled, and without hesitation, he immediately said: "I order you to lead 200,000 Fire Cloud Army to wipe out the rebel kings except Deng Yan, Fang Xinghai, He Guang, Zhou Xin, Gan Ce and the other five. Set off immediately!"

Qin Su knelt down immediately upon hearing this and said, "I accept your order!"

After saying this, Qin Su turned around and left without any hesitation. She was almost going mouldy staying in the palace these days. Finally, she had the chance to go out and fight. Although she was reluctant to leave the emperor, the overall situation was more important now.

She knew that the emperor would never let her fight unless it was absolutely necessary, and it must be a critical moment.

She was never afraid to go to war for the emperor!

Just as Qin Su was about to leave the imperial study, Xiang Yun thought for a moment and called out, "Little Su Su!"

Qin Su turned around and looked at him in confusion. Xiang Yun said quickly, "You have to understand me. Jiang Fei is not in the capital. Jiang Yue needs to reorganize the entire army of the dynasty and is busy with government affairs. Now you are the only general who can go to war in the Great Sun Dynasty. I am worried about handing over the 200,000 Fire Cloud Army to others!"

Qin Su nodded obediently and said, "I know, I'm going!"

Xiang Yun called out again: "Be careful, go early and come back early!"

Three months passed in the blink of an eye. During this period, Xiang Yun worked hard to govern the country and settled down. He did not continue to meddle in other things. He stayed in the imperial study every day to manage government affairs, dealing with agricultural policy, military policy, finance and other matters, big and small, including spring planting, military service system, expansion of borders, and the annexation of the Mahayana Kingdom.

Xiang Yun was exhausted these days. Every day he had to summon Jiang Yue, Zhu Qiyu and the six ministers to discuss matters big and small. One day he even summoned Zhu Qiyu seven times and discussed matters until late at night.

However, after a tiring day, she still had to walk around the palace at night, flipping through the names of several concubines. She worked hard every night and slept less than two hours a day.

This is all supported by the Golden Dragon Energy in the body. If it were an ordinary person, the body would have collapsed long ago.

But it's worth the effort. After three months of hard work, we have finally got the progress of these things underway and solved most of the problems. The only thing left is time to perfect it, which depends on the hard work of the people below.

After being exhausted for a while, he could finally take a break. However, the ministers below did not have any time to rest. It was none of his business.

Xiang Yun was in a very good mood that day, because today, the Black Witch Kingdom's wedding procession arrived in the capital, and their eldest princess Song Yun was brought there in white!

Who wouldn’t be happy to have a wife like this!

The Ministry of Rites organized a large number of people to go out of the city to welcome the bride. The journey was grand and lively. Even after the wedding procession carried the bridal sedan into the palace, Xiang Yun was still staying in the imperial study to handle government affairs and had not gone there yet.

This is how a marriage of peace is done. The emperor does not need to go there. He just needs to wait until evening to enjoy the first night's sleep with the marriage partner.

It’s so comfortable and refreshing!

It is still daytime, but Xiang Yun in the imperial study is a little impatient. Although he has a memorial in his hand, his mind is no longer on it. All his attention is on the bride, Song Yun.

Good fellow, you were still arrogant and proud of me in the Imperial Study Room three months ago, but now you have to become my wife, you can’t run away~

However, as an emperor, if he could not wait to run to see the bride in broad daylight, and then the news got out, although the civil and military officials would not dare to say much, they would definitely laugh at him.

Besides, there are mountains of government affairs in the Imperial Study. As an emperor, I have to be diligent!

After warning himself in his heart, Xiang Yun stopped thinking about it and continued to review the memorials. However, his mind was drifting and drifting, and he could not even see what was written on the memorials.

After an hour of such torment, Xiang Yun admitted that he was an unqualified emperor. He immediately threw away the memorial in his hand and headed towards Yaohua Palace where Song Yun was.

The speed was so fast that even Xiao Guazi could not catch up with him even if he tried his best. He could only keep shouting from behind.

Because the newlyweds were moving in, Yaohua Palace had been cleaned thoroughly a long time ago, and was decorated with lights and red silk wedding flowers, creating a joyful and lively atmosphere.

Xiang Yun saw this scene from a distance, and immediately strode over with a smile, his hands still waving in front of him. He looked extremely vulgar and like a lecher.

When the palace maids guarding the gate saw the emperor like this, they couldn't help laughing out loud. It wasn't because they were not afraid of death, but they really couldn't help laughing and wanted to suffocate themselves to death.

Xiang Yun was in a good mood, and was only thinking about his bride, Song Yun. Naturally, he didn't care about the teasing of these palace maids and eunuchs. He just glared at them fiercely, and then hurriedly walked into Yaohua Palace.

In front of the bedroom door, Xiang Yun opened it carefully, and was stunned when he entered.

Although Song Yun was still wearing her bright red wedding dress at this time, she had taken off her red veil and was sitting at the table eating cakes.

After working all day, she was already very hungry, but according to the rules, she had to cover her head with the red veil until late at night, when the emperor came and personally lifted it up for her.

But it was still several hours before evening. As the eldest princess, she could not bear to be pampered for such a long time, so she took off her red veil without permission and came out to eat.

How could she have known that in broad daylight, Xiang Yun was not in the imperial study handling government affairs, but actually came to her. This emperor is really shameless!

I have seen people who are impatient for sex, but I have never seen someone like Xiang Yun.

Song Yun secretly complained in her heart, but now that she was caught by the emperor, she was in the wrong, so she laughed dryly and said softly: "Hi~ The weather is nice today!"

Xiang Yun looked up at the sky when he heard that. It was cloudy and it was about to rain.

He couldn't help but frown, narrowed his eyes, then looked at Song Yun again, and finally muttered: "It must be that I opened it the wrong way!"

Then, Xiang Yun slowly closed the bedroom door again under Song Yun's stiff smile.
