Chapter 553: Explosion is Over
The Mo family just listened to this kind of thing.
It is not necessarily false that Emperor Shunwu had symptoms of a stroke, but it is not tenable to say that he wanted to try to train the Fourth Prince.
You never know when he might have a stroke. Isn't it a huge joke to expect a child of a few years old to support the entire empire?
The Mo family saw through it but did not say anything, but they believed that the official who delivered the imperial edict would not dare to lie about the fact that Emperor Shunwu was ill.
The messenger had just left with his entourage after eating and drinking at the Mo family when Meng Huaining brought a letter from Nanyu via carrier pigeon.
This letter was actually written to Mo Jiuye.
The content mainly informs Mo Jiuye about the situation in the capital.
Emperor Shunwu kept his word and gave up the throne to him three days later.
Now he has become the emperor of the Dashun Dynasty.
The first thing he did after ascending the throne was to punish several officials related to the Xue family, which served as a warning to others.
After all, there are too many officials involved with the Xue family, and he cannot completely eradicate them. After all, the court is in need of people now. He hopes that those officials can remember the new emperor's grace of not killing them, make amends for their mistakes and serve the court well.
As for Minister He, he had sincerely urged him to stay, but Minister He had made up his mind. Since that was the case, Nan Yu did not force him and approved his resignation.
When writing the letter, Minister He had already disposed of his real estate in the capital and would soon arrive in the northwest to reunite with them.
There was also the case of the Ninth Prince's rebellion. Nan Yu knew that He Ziming was implicated, so he no longer controlled his actions and, like Minister He, agreed to his resignation.
Nanrui was conferred the title of Prince Rui.
Nanrui did not refuse the title of prince, but he told Nanyu on the spot that he did not like to get involved in government affairs and just wanted to live a free and easy life.
Now that Nanyu has taken control of the power, he has no reason to stay in the capital.
However, he did not refuse the Prince Rui's Mansion given to him by Nan Yu. Perhaps when he missed his brothers in the future, he would come back to live here.
On the day he was conferred the title of prince, Nanrui said goodbye to Nanyu, saying that he planned to go out and travel.
Mo Jiuye was more clear about this, Nanrui must have rushed back to the northwest.
Emperor Shunwu kept his promise to enjoy his retirement. Since he abdicated the throne to Nan Yu, he has never been involved in the affairs of the court.
Although Nan Yu harbored resentment towards Concubine Yuan, she was his biological mother after all. The first thing he did after ascending the throne was to enthrone her as empress dowager.
I don't know what was the mentality of Emperor Shunwu, but he didn't pursue the crime of deceiving the emperor by Concubine Yuan. Since he abdicated the throne, he has lived with Concubine Yuan for a long time, and the two of them get along like an ordinary couple.
And there is Nan Qi. After he found out that the person he was swapped with was Nan Yu, he started to go crazy.
In order to prevent any fraud, Nan Yu specially sent several imperial doctors to diagnose him, and finally confirmed that he was indeed insane.
After all, he was the child raised by Concubine Yuan, and Nan Yu had also exchanged conditions with Nanny Fei to save Nan Qi's life.
Nan Yu could not feel any sympathy for people like Nan Qi.
He directly ordered people to release Nan Qi from the prison and let him fend for himself.
In short, things in the capital are moving in a positive direction step by step.
Even if Nan Yu didn't write to tell them, Mo Jiuye and He Zhiran knew from their understanding of history that he would become a wise ruler.
As a king, especially one who had just ascended the throne, he had to deal with countless matters big and small every day. However, Nanyu still thought of writing a letter to inform about the recent situation. This shows how much Nanyu valued the Mohist school.
After putting away the letter, Mo Jiuye began to arrange the garrison matters.
Now the Mohists have the legitimate reason to defend, and there is no ambiguity at all.
The private soldiers raised in the mountains no longer have the problem of not being able to see the light, especially since they have bombs and crossbows in their hands. These people will become the main force of this battle.
Including the people that his second and third brothers took to hide in the western border, Mo Jiuye divided the entire team into three parts.
Some of them followed the eldest brother, the fifth brother, and the sixth brother to the southern border.
The fifth brother will be the head coach because he is bold and careful, and Mo Jiuye is most confident in him when doing things.
The Mo family particularly hated the people of southern Xinjiang. Therefore, Mo Jiuye asked his fifth brother and other brothers to take away a large number of bombs when they set off.
Once the war breaks out, these people won't have to worry about anything, just bomb it all...
By the way, let the superiors of Dashun know that the Mohist School is capable of resisting any force, but we Mohists are loyal and disdain to do those things!
In short, the goal is to raze southern Xinjiang to the ground and avenge the shame suffered by the men of the Mohist school.
The northwest has become the fiefdom of the Mohist school, and many things need to be replanned.
This matter was left to the fourth brother. Although his body had almost recovered, it was still a little worse than that of the other brothers.
Mo Jiuye arranged for him and Meng Huaining to be responsible for the government affairs in the northwest.
The so-called government affairs include many things, such as public security within the city, as well as various major issues such as people's livelihood.
The fourth brother was aware of his situation and knew that his ninth brother was taking care of him. Even so, he was somewhat uneasy because his brothers could all go into battle to kill the enemy, while he could only be responsible for logistics.
Mo Jiuye saw through his thoughts and understood his feelings.
As a general who is used to fighting on the battlefield, he must be unwilling to stand in the rear.
"Fourth brother, don't think that what you need to do is easy. Not only are you responsible for the security of the city, but most importantly, you have to continue to produce bombs to supply them to the battlefield.
Only our brothers know how to make bombs. Now that the war has begun, the number of bombs needed will increase. I'm afraid you will be the one who works the hardest among us brothers."
After hearing Mo Jiuye say that he would be the hardest-working one among his brothers, the fourth brother immediately stopped worrying.
"Don't worry, Ninth Brother. Dad and I are now very skilled in making bombs. We guarantee that they can be used."
Seeing that his fourth brother was no longer depressed about this, Mo Jiuye continued to make other arrangements.
"Second and third brothers are already lying in ambush in the Western Territory. I will rush over with seventh and eighth brothers, Liang Hao, and the others later. I will be in charge of the battle in the Western Territory."
The reason why Mo Jiuye chose to bring his seventh and eighth brothers along was because he knew that these two brothers were the most impulsive, and only when they were under his supervision could he ensure that they would obey his orders.
Finally, there is the eldest brother.
The eldest brother is calm and steady, and stays in Xiling Village to protect his home.
After all, Mo Jiuye had just taken the position of King of Zhenxi, and it had been the same in every dynasty; the court would not grant any mansion to the prince who was granted a fiefdom.
The entire territory becomes yours. Where you want to build a mansion and what kind of mansion you want to build depends on the ability of the fiefdom owner.
