After the integration of Lanhai's army and Daliang's 300,000-strong army, the two sides also spent some time getting used to each other.
Fortunately, marching and fighting were difficult in themselves, and everyone was going to the Western Regions, a place they had never been to before. So during the march, both sides put aside their previous grudges and barriers, and not only supported each other, but also blocked each other's swords and killed the enemy.
Most people even thought they would never come back, but they didn't expect that not only would they return victorious this time, but the two armies would also cooperate to create a life-and-death friendship.
So when they first returned to Mantuo City together, the two armies drank and talked happily together, imagining a future of peace and friendship between the two countries.
However, happy times are always short-lived.
Things are just as Mrs. Pei said.
Before they had a few days of peace, Da Chu and Daliang started quarreling.
Not only were they noisy, but they were noisy as well.
The cause of the incident was the robbery of people.
The Great Chu wanted to welcome their Majesty back to the imperial city of Nan'an.
And Daliang also wants to welcome their Prince Su to the imperial city of Jinling.
Originally, the relationship between Da Chu and Daliang had been reconciled after their joint fight against the expedition to the Western Regions.
After this incident, the two sides are once again at odds with each other.
Wei Zhaolie and Pei Qinghong came together to find Duan Rongshi again today.
Because there was another fight in the army...
Not only that, the civil officials were also arguing until their faces were red.
When Wei Zhaolie and Pei Qinghong arrived at the front hall of the City Lord's Mansion, they heard the Daliang civil officials shouting, "Things must also be served in a first-come, first-served manner!"
"His Royal Highness Prince Su's surname is Duan. It's time for him to return to our Jinling! Even if he inherits your Great Chu, it's because of your emperor's coercion and favor that he has no choice but to take over your Great Chu's mess."
"Now your city has been taken back for you."
"Westerners also helped you drive them away."
"Isn't it time for you to return His Highness to us?!"
The civil officials of Da Chu were not polite either. They pointed at the civil officials of Daliang and jumped up and down.
"Do you have any shame?!"
"Your Majesty is now the Emperor of our Great Chu. If he doesn't want to be the Emperor, why would he become your Prince Su?"
"Back then, your Daliang couldn't tolerate our Majesty, and even forced him to fake his own death and hide in our Great Chu."
"You cannot see His Majesty's glory, but we can!"
"Your Majesty, whom you do not cherish, we cherish!"
"You are reluctant to give your majesty power and honor, but we in Great Chu are willing to give it all!"
"Your Majesty is now respected and loved by all the people of Great Chu, and you are just thinking of snatching him back. Why don't you try to rob the Jade Emperor in Heaven?"
"Besides, why would I go back to Daliang? To continue being an unloved Prince Su?"
"I've heard that our Majesty has performed countless great deeds since he served as the Minister of Justice in your Daliang Dynasty. However, except for attending court, he is not even allowed to enter the palace on weekdays. The people shun him like the plague."
"Why, do you want to go back to Daliang and suffer your wrath?"
The Daliang civil servant was so anxious that his face turned red, but what the Dachu civil servant said were all facts in the past, so the Daliang civil servant could not refute a word.
The civil officials of the Great Chu were even more proud.
When Wei Zhaolie and Pei Qinghong saw Duan Rong sitting in the upper seat, their expressions were still as expressionless as usual.
The two of them hurried forward and said, "Your Majesty!"
"Greetings, Your Highness!"
Wei Zhaolie said, "Your Majesty, the two men who caused the disturbance in the army have already been punished."
"There's also a letter from Nan'an saying that Prince Ying and Prime Minister Zhang have both departed from Nan'an, leading civil and military officials to personally come to Mantuo City to welcome Your Majesty back to the court."
When the people from Daliang present heard this, all their expressions changed.
With such a big commotion in the court of Great Chu, how can they in Daliang take back Prince Su?
Pei Qinghong cursed softly, "You guys are quite shameless."
"Can't I find an outstanding prince in Great Chu?"
Wei Zhaolie remained calm and said, "You did have an outstanding prince, but wasn't he killed by yourselves, forced to flee to another country?"
Pei Qinghong: "Do you, Great Chu, still want to fight and decide the outcome with us, Daliang?"
Wei Zhaolie: "Fight! Whoever wins will own the emperor!"
Seeing that the two of them were also getting more aggressive with their swords, Duan Rongshi finally said, "That's enough."
He held his chin in his hand, looked nonchalantly at all the people in the hall who were arguing fiercely for him, and said calmly, "Wei Zhaolie, let Prince Ying and the others return to the imperial city first."
The people of Da Chu, led by Wei Zhaolie, felt as if the sky had fallen.
"His Majesty!!"
They knelt on the ground, looking at Duan Rongshi anxiously.
Does His Majesty really not want them anymore?
The people of Daliang all had ecstasy on their faces.
However, before they could rejoice, they heard Duan Rongshi say, "I do need to go back to Nanjing."
"Because there are still some grievances that have not been settled."
Wei Zhaolie: "When will Your Majesty return to the court? Let me escort Your Majesty to Jinling!"
Duan Rongshi did not refuse. He nodded under the expectant gaze of Pei Qinghong and others.
"Except for those who must stay in Mantuo City, all other officials from the Great Chu can accompany us."
When the people of Da Chu heard this, they were so excited that they almost jumped up on the spot.
If Your Majesty allows them to accompany you, then Your Majesty will still be the Emperor of Great Chu!!
Your Majesty is not going back to Nanjing to abandon Da Chu, but to go back to Nanjing to settle past grievances!
As long as you don't abandon the Great Chu, they will follow your Majesty in whatever he wants to do. Can your Majesty really abandon them all?
All the officials of the Great Chu were laughing in their hearts.
