Beilu Pass is nearly eight hundred miles away from the edge of the mountain.
With Emperor Wen with them, it was naturally impossible for them to run for their lives.
It took them five days to reach the edge of the hill.
After such a long period of repair, the edge of the hill has basically been repaired.
Emperor Wen did not say much to the generals on the hillside, and could not wait to climb up the city wall.
Standing on the city wall, Emperor Wen slowly turned around and looked down at the city inside and outside the hill.
"Okay! Okay!"
"I never thought that I could still stand on the tower beside the hill in my lifetime!"
"I finally did not lose my ancestral land. After I am in the underworld, I will have the face to see the late emperor..."
As he spoke, Emperor Wen's eyes became moist.
...
...
The construction of Sanbian City began during the reign of the previous emperor.
After he ascended the throne, it took several more years to completely repair the three border cities.
Sanbiancheng is the first line of defense on the northern border of Dagan.
In order to build the three border cities, a huge amount of manpower and financial resources were consumed.
Being forced to cede three border cities has always been a thorn in his side.
Now, these three border cities have finally been recovered!
He finally climbed up the city wall on the edge of the hill again and could see the territory of Beihuan from afar!
What he failed to do, his son did for him!
Listening to Emperor Wen's words, Yun Zheng couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
This cheap father of mine is actually a qualified emperor.
Although they were forced to cede three border cities that year, they still had this land in their hearts.
Although, this piece of land is actually not that big.
This matter actually has little to do with the size of this piece of land.
An emperor should have the courage not to lose an inch of land.
Without this kind of courage, it would be difficult to preserve the ancestral heritage.
Of course, it was precisely because Emperor Wen had this courage that he compromised with him before.
He knew in his heart that the reason why Emperor Wen was willing to compromise was not because of the deep affection between father and son, but because Emperor Wen really wanted to take back the three border cities and did not want to become a king who lost land.
If there were no three border cities and no enemy Beihuan, if he dared to seize military power, even if Emperor Wen did not go to war with him directly, he would certainly not provide him with supplies.
They are father and son, and they complement each other!
Just when Yun Zheng was feeling deeply moved, Lu Xing suddenly came quickly and whispered in Yun Zheng's ear.
After hearing what Lu Xing said, Yun Zheng was stunned.
"What happened?"
Emperor Wen glanced over and asked, "Could it be that somewhere was attacked by the Northern Huan?"
"That's not the case."
Yun Zheng shook his head slightly. "I just got the news that Jiayao has forcefully integrated the various tribes of Beihuan. As the regent princess, she exiled her brother Luntai and honored Luntai's three-year-old son Qiyan as the Great Chanyu of Beihuan. The positions of the Left and Right Wise Kings are temporarily vacant! The tribes of the Left and Right Wise Kings only have leaders, and only leaders with outstanding merits can be awarded the title of Left and Right Wise Kings..."
It was within their expectations that Jia Yao would take charge of Beihuan.
But I didn't expect that this day would come so soon.
The key point is that this woman did not proclaim herself the first female Chanyu in the history of Northern Huan, but she performed the deeds of a Great Chanyu.
Honoring Luntai's youngest son as the Great Khan of Beihuan would be more conducive to the allegiance of Luntai's tribe and minimize internal friction.
The vacancy of the positions of the Left and Right Wise Kings was almost equivalent to the removal of the Left and Right Wise Kings, further strengthening her control over the tribes.
But it’s a temporary vacancy, it’s not like there isn’t one.
Leaving this position vacant is like giving a shot in the arm to the leaders of each tribe.
She held all the power, but in this way she minimized the internal friction of Beihuan as much as possible.
This woman is really not simple!
damn it!
None of the Beihuan kings and Jia Yao’s brothers can fight!
Hearing Yun Zheng's words, Emperor Wen couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
After a brief moment of distraction, Emperor Wen suddenly turned around, looked into the distance in the direction of Beihuan, and laughed out loud.
"Ha ha……"
Emperor Wen smiled particularly happily.
But Yun Zheng and the others looked puzzled.
Not only did the Northern Huan not fall into chaos, it also achieved centralization.
This is not a good thing for Da Gan, right?
Why is Emperor Wen happy now?
Could it be that he thought it was funny that a woman like Jia Yao could become an emperor?
"Father, what are you laughing at?"
After a long time, Yun Zheng couldn't help but ask.
Emperor Wen turned around, slapped Yun Zheng's shoulder hard, and laughed: "Didn't you and Jia Yao secretly get married? According to the way of our dynasty, from now on, the Great Khan of Beihuan will have to call you uncle when he sees you! Haha..."
When he was happy, Emperor Wen couldn't help laughing out loud.
“…”
After listening to Emperor Wen's words, everyone was speechless.
Many generals in Shuobei knew what was going on between Yun Zheng and Jia Yao.
They are just husband and wife in name only.
Does Emperor Wen really want to make Jia Yao his daughter-in-law?
Yun Zheng killed Jia Yao's father and brother!
There is no way Jia Yao would marry Yun Zheng no matter what!
Of course, if Yun Zheng led his troops to attack and directly destroyed Beihuan and captured Jia Yao, the princess regent, that would be another matter.
"After I return, I will order the Ministry of Rites to draft a letter of credence, approving your marriage with Jiayao!"
Emperor Wen laughed loudly, "You must send someone to deliver the letter to Jia Yao! From now on, you will be the uncle of the Great Chanyu of Beihuan! Haha..."
Emperor Wen was in a particularly good mood and laughed as he spoke.
Yun Zheng looked at Emperor Wen with a helpless look, feeling speechless.
He understood Emperor Wen's intention.
Jia Yao once publicly acknowledged herself as his husband, and this was something many Beihuan people knew.
Emperor Wen wants to teach Jia Yao a lesson about the emperor's words!
This requires occupying a name first.
I am a good at having fun, but this title has no practical meaning!
Instead of using this name, it would be better to just destroy Beihuan!
Seeing Yun Zheng's expression, Emperor Wen couldn't help but shook his head and smiled, "Old Six stay, the rest of you leave!"
Everyone knew that Emperor Wen wanted to talk to Yun Zheng alone, so they quickly withdrew.
"Do you think I'm delusional?"
Emperor Wen asked Yun Zheng with a smile on his face.
Yun Zheng smiled embarrassedly, "To be honest, it is a bit."
"You are better than me in fighting, but you are not as good as me in governing a country!" Emperor Wen pulled Yun Zheng to the front of the tower, and looked to the north with Yun Zheng. "What do you think is the basis of governing a country?"
Yun Zheng thought about it and said uncertainly: "It should be the will of the people, right?"
“That’s about right!”
Emperor Wen nodded and smiled, then continued: "Of course I know that Jiayao will not marry you, but some things must be done legitimately..."
Having said that, Emperor Wen began to explain it in detail to Yun Zheng.
Even if Yun Zheng destroys Beihuan one day, he can't kill all the people of Beihuan, right?
But he governed Beihuan as a great man, and even if the people of Beihuan submitted on the surface, they would not accept it in their hearts.
This is the will of the people!
But things were different because Yun Zheng had the identity of being the uncle of the Great Chanyu of Beihuan.
With this identity, Yun Zheng and Bei Huan are now a family!
If Yun Zheng goes to win over the hearts of the people of Beihuan again, the resistance will be much smaller.
This is like the difference between ascending the throne by rebellion and ascending the throne legitimately!
The letter that Emperor Wen sent to Beihuan was to make this matter legitimate!
Anyway, a letter of credence is not worth much.
Even if this letter can play a small role, it will be worth it!
Listening to Emperor Wen's words, Yun Zheng suddenly realized.
have to!
Just give it away!
It’s just a name anyway!
