Chapter 970 The Imperial Edict Spreading Throughout the World
For a small country, when war comes, the whole country must prepare for war, and many things must give way to war.
Isn't Ezhou today equivalent to an isolated small country? Instead of the Hubei Northern Army worrying about how to prepare, it is better to get the entire Ezhou into action.
This will not only mobilize the enthusiasm of the people, but also allow them to see hope in the abnormally cold climate.
Shen Qingqian's suggestion was based on Ezhou's rich mineral resources, including coal, copper, iron and other hard resources, so that Ezhou could engage in war preparations as quickly as possible.
"As long as we can do these, this battle will be relatively easier, and it will also be of great help to the subsequent takeover of Chenzhou." Shen Qingqian finally finished speaking. She was so thirsty that she turned around to find some water to drink.
Sheng Ze poured a glass of water and handed it to her. "Everything you said should be achievable. No wonder you wanted to find Lord Zheng. He and Uncle Liang have to give the order together for this matter."
Liang Cheng is in charge of the army, and Zheng Shicheng is in charge of the general affairs of the entire Ezhou. What Shen Qingqian said can only be convincing if the two of them give orders.
Shen Qingqian raised an eyebrow and asked, "Have you ever thought about taking over the affairs of Ezhou?"
Even the people in Huanxiyuan had heard of his identity, and most people in the army should know about it. Shen Qingqian didn't understand why Sheng Ze didn't take over the military and political power.
Sheng Ze shook his head, "I don't want to make the same mistake again."
In his first life, he took over the military power of the Hubei Northern Army before contacting the Jiayu clan's Grand Princess Chengyu. However, Sheng Zhan took advantage of this and nailed Liang Cheng to the pillar of shame as a traitor forever. He also colluded with King Zhao, causing the Hubei Northern Army to suffer heavy losses.
In his second life, he bypassed the Hubei Northern Army and went to the Jiayu Clan to ask for reinforcements, but Sheng Zhan somehow suspected that Liang Cheng had ill intentions. He actually joined forces with the Jun Clan and King Zhao to attack from three sides, causing the Hubei Northern Army to be completely wiped out on the banks of the Lan River.
In this life, he had made up his mind that he would never stand in front of others unless it was necessary.
Perhaps God was helping him, as was the case with his and Liang Cheng's previous decision. Furthermore, Old Qi was also in northern Hubei now, so it would be useless even if Sheng Zhan tried to throw dirty water on Liang Cheng. The common people and the neutral factions in the court all knew what was going on.
When Shen Qingqian heard him talk about his previous two lives, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart. She didn't expect that a general like Liang Cheng would have such a heroic ending.
Then she would have to think of a way to ensure that all of them could live safely to old age in this life.
"Master, Lord Zheng is back." Xuyang's voice came from outside the house.
Sheng Ze and Shen Qingqian looked at each other and walked out together.
"You need to discuss this matter in detail with Lord Zheng. Don't worry about the money. I will find a way." Sheng Ze said as he walked.
Shen Qingqian nodded. Now that she knew the whole story, she naturally understood what to do.
However, when the two met Zheng Shicheng, they were shocked by the news he brought back.
"What do you mean by Sheng Zhan issuing an edict to exonerate the Shen family and conferring the title of Marquis of An Ning? That's fine, but why did he directly confer the title of Consort Fu on the Sixth Girl? And even spread the imperial edict throughout the world!"
Zheng Shicheng came to find Liang Cheng, so Sheng Ze and Shen Qingqian were naturally brought here as well, and then they heard Liang Cheng's angry question in disbelief.
Sheng Ze's expression turned extremely ugly, and Shen Qingqian's mouth twitched fiercely.
She had thought of countless possible consequences of Sheng Zhan knowing Sheng Ze was in northern Hubei, but she had never considered that she was involved in this!
