Chapter 114: Gaoyang surrenders, the capital celebrates the third day of settlement



Think about the ministers in the court, which one of them is not shrewd and scheming?

To deal with these people.

You must have a mind that most people don't have.

So, after some time, Zhao Lingying figured it out and felt that His Majesty was actually very happy, but because he was the emperor, he could not show any of his emotions.

Thinking of this, she suddenly felt a little sorry for His Majesty.

Your Majesty is the emperor, the Son of Heaven.

But he is also a living person.

But because of his identity, he cannot even let others know his joys, sorrows, anger, and happiness.

Keep it all in your heart.

“Huh~”

At this moment, Zhao Lingying took a deep breath and then said softly: "Cuiguo, from today on, you clean up the small kitchen. From now on, I will personally cook some meals for His Majesty and stew some supplements."

"Ah?" Cui Guo was shocked upon hearing this and couldn't help but say, "But Madam, you would never do such things before."

"The past was the past, and the present is the present. They are different."

Zhao Lingying thought for a moment and said, "I used to think that just handling memorials for His Majesty was enough to relieve His Majesty's worries. But after what happened today, I deeply understand that I am a concubine, and as a concubine, I must fulfill my duties as a concubine."

"Especially now that the Empress is pregnant, she can't work too hard. I'm the only one left in the harem now."

"If I can't take good care of Your Majesty at this time, how can I face Your Majesty?"

"Okay, no need to ask any more questions, just go and get ready!"

Said.

She glanced again at the direction Wei Yunyi left.

Although he knew that his cooking skills were no match for the Queen's.

But now something has to be done.

Since I cannot share the joys and sorrows with Your Majesty, I can at least give more in other aspects.

That is the duty of a concubine.

"Yes, my lady."

Cuiguo didn't know what her queen was thinking, but she knew she had to obey her orders.

...

Generally speaking.

Except for the secret memorial.

Memorials sent to the Imperial Study must go through the Cabinet.

Therefore, the news that Song Hongzhi led the Liaozhen garrison to destroy Gaoyang State and took the royal family of Gaoyang State to the capital was also completely spread on this day.

For a moment, all the officials who received the news were shocked.

Those who had not been optimistic about Song Hongzhi were also frightened.

This is not simply about preventing Gao Yangguo from entering the palace.

But it means destroying the country!

Since Emperor Taizu Gao.

The Great Wei no longer had the intention of destroying other countries.

Even when faced with provocations from neighboring countries, the most they would do is send troops to punish them and then make them their vassal states.

After all, destroying a country requires tremendous effort and cost, and it cannot be done overnight.

Especially during the reign of Emperor Taizong, in order to stabilize the domestic situation, he chose to recuperate.

Apart from the wars on the grasslands, the Wei Dynasty hardly launched any major wars.

But today.

It was the third year since His Majesty ascended the throne.

A war to annihilate a country happened unexpectedly.

More importantly, this battle took less than a month.

Even the large army mobilized only numbered 50,000 men.

Especially the military reports that came out.

It also shows that in this battle, the total casualties of the Liaozhen garrison were less than one or two thousand.

With such a small price to pay, Gaoyang Kingdom was destroyed...

It's hard for anyone to believe.

But this news came from the cabinet. A university scholar revealed that the memorial was stamped with the seal of Gaoyang State. Under this situation, no one doubted it and confirmed that it was true.

At the same time, the memorial submitted by Song Hongzhi was not a secret memorial, and it was good news.

Therefore, the news of Gaoyang's destruction also reached the ears of the people.

For a while.

The whole capital was in an uproar!

The people were jubilant and took to the streets to celebrate, praising Song Hongzhi who had just led the army to destroy the country.

Many people know it.

This battle is a battle to maintain the dignity of the Great Wei.

This battle.

It truly demonstrated the majesty of the Wei Dynasty.

As a citizen of the Great Wei, who would not be proud of it?

Of course, more people are shouting "Long live the emperor."

Because most people are very clear that the decision to use military force against Gaoyang was made by His Majesty the Great Emperor. It was His Majesty's wisdom and bravery that upheld the majesty and dignity of the Great Wei.

Under such circumstances, Wei Yunyi, who had only been on the throne for three years, began to rapidly gain prestige among the people.

Before this, although many people knew that His Majesty was implementing the land-based tax system that would benefit both the country and the people.

But this is just internal affairs, and many places have not yet started.

Even if it begins to gain recognition from the people, it is still wrong.

But he ordered troops to be dispatched.

It would be a different matter if we destroyed Gaoyang Kingdom, which challenged the majesty of Wei.

The Great Wei and the people have always been one. If the country is bullied, the people will also feel angry.

But if the country maintains its dignity, the people will also be encouraged.

Especially victory in war.

It will also bring unprecedented pride to the people.

Therefore, the people of the capital of the Wei Dynasty all took to the streets to praise His Majesty the Emperor.

Of course, except the common people.

The court officials were also very happy.

Originally, they had no confidence in this battle, but who knew that it would end with the destruction of Gaoyang? How could they not be excited?

Just like that, the whole capital celebrated, and the streets were filled with cheers from the crowds.
