Chapter 184: Consecrating the Crown Prince and preparing to leave

After the military parade was over, the legion headed by Qin Qiong and the legion headed by Li Mi set off directly from the imperial capital and began the first foreign war after the establishment of the Wu Dynasty.

According to His Majesty the Emperor, all the land illuminated by the sun and moon is Han territory, and the Wu Dynasty's army was not for external expansion, but to conquer the territory lost by the ancestors.

As for whether there is any legal basis for it?

Of course!

If you don’t believe it, if you look through the Classic of Mountains and Seas, the customs and customs of the entire world have been recorded in ancient times. If these are not the territory of our Chinese nation, why can they be recorded in such detail?

After the two armies went out, Song Xuan did not continue to pay attention. Instead, he ordered the six ministries to do logistical support work, then left other trivial government affairs to the cabinet, and then prepared to retreat.

Before retreating, he asked cabinet member Li Shimin a question.

Would you like to change your last name?

Li Shimin hesitated.

Then, there was no more. Song Xuan didn't say anything more, but turned and left.

After Song Xuan walked away, Li Shimin finally came back to his senses. His expression changed again and again, his expression full of annoyance.

He understood that he had missed his last chance to ascend to the throne!

When His Majesty asked him if he wanted to be emperor, he didn't have the courage to directly express his thoughts. Today, Your Majesty gave him another chance, but he still failed to grasp it!

In fact, this is indeed the case.

After meeting with Li Shimin, Song Xuan turned around and summoned Song Que and his son.

"Since I ascended the throne, many officials in the court have asked me to appoint concubines as soon as possible and give birth to royal heirs as soon as possible, but I have always ignored them. My dear, do you know why?"

Song Que said cautiously: "Your Majesty is the number one in the world, a grandmaster-level existence, and his lifespan can reach two hundred years. There is really no need to worry about heirs!"

Song Xuan waved his hand and said: "That's not the case!"

He paused and continued: "Ai Qing, have you ever heard of Shattered Void?"

Hearing this, Song Que trembled and said with some uncertainty: "Your Majesty is talking about the legendary Broken Void Realm?"

"Yes!" Song Xuan nodded, "I have already touched this realm. Now, do you know why I am reluctant to leave an heir?"

Song Que pondered for a moment and suddenly said: "No wonder, Your Majesty is worried that one day the void will suddenly break apart and fly away, leaving the young master unable to control the situation of the court?

In fact, Your Majesty does not need to worry about this. Although I am not talented, I will swear on my life that I will loyally assist my young master! If you have second thoughts, your entire Song family will be wiped out and your descendants will be cut off!"

Song Xuan shook his head slightly, "I still trust your loyalty, but it's not necessary!"

"I must have noticed that I don't care about the throne at all. The reason why I sit in this position is just to make the people of the Han family live a better life and to strive for a future for the Chinese nation.

Now, I have already done almost what I need to do, at least this big framework has been completed, and the follow-up is nothing more than perfecting it little by little within this framework until the territory of Wu Dynasty is expanded to the whole world!"

"What does Your Majesty mean?" Song Que swallowed, seemingly guessing His Majesty's plan.

In fact, he had some vague speculations as early as a year ago, but His Majesty's attitude was not clear before, but now, is His Majesty going to have a showdown with himself?

"You should have guessed what I mean!" Song Xuan smiled slightly and said: "I may break through the realm and fly away at any time, so before leaving, I must determine the successor!"

Song Que was silent for a moment and said: "Your Majesty has taken a fancy to this child Shi Dao?"

Song Xuan nodded and said: "In fact, all civil and military officials in the dynasty guessed that I was born in the Song family. This is very good, and it saves a lot of trouble!"

"My lord, I understand! When I get back, I will ask the elders of the Song family to adopt the child Shidao to Your Majesty!"

Song Xuan shook his head, "No need to go to so much trouble, just his surname is Song!"

Early the next morning, Song Xuan held a rare imperial meeting.

In front of all the civil and military officials, Song Shidao, Song Que's son, was canonized as the crown prince.

It seems that many people in the civil and military circles of the Manchu Dynasty had expected this, and were not too surprised.

After all, His Majesty's surname is Song, and he has a very good relationship with Song Que. One is a great master of swordsmanship, and the other is a great master of swordsmanship. It is not impossible to say that they are brothers.

Your Majesty has never cared about the issue of heirs. Thinking about it, he already had a candidate in mind among the Song family members.

Now, it is exactly as they expected.

After the prince was confirmed, Song Xuan once again announced that the prince Song Shidao would supervise the country, and then announced his resignation under the complicated eyes of the civil and military officials of the court, and Shi Shiran left.

He left behind a sentence that left all officials speechless.

"In the future, if you have anything to do with the Crown Prince, please don't bother me. It's not a matter of major importance to the survival of the Wu Dynasty!"

After leaving the court, Song Xuan went to the royal training room.

In the room, Zhou Zhiruo had already made tea for him. When she saw him appearing, she smiled softly and said, "Has the court affairs been settled?"

Song Xuandao: "I canonized Song Shidao as the Crown Prince of the Supervisory State!"

"I thought you, husband, valued Li Shimin more!"

Song Xuandao: "Li Shimin is good, but if he takes over, unless I clean up the family before I leave, he won't be able to control him!

Song Que alone is not something he can compete with!"

Zhou Zhiruo agreed: "That's true. After the death of Ning Daoqi and other great masters, Song Que is indeed unstoppable. With his loyalty to His Majesty, if the successor is his husband's heir, he may help him wholeheartedly, but if it is someone else, this

There is a high chance that people will rebel!"

Song Xuan nodded, "Li Shimin is good, but as a disciple of the same sect, Song Shidao is no worse than him. In addition, with Song Que's support behind him, at least after I leave, the Wu Dynasty will not fall apart."

Next, I will stay in seclusion in the royal training room for ten years and sit in the imperial capital. This will be enough for Song Shidao to gather power and control the overall situation.

As for the future, I really don't care about it. With Song Que here, it will be enough for the Wu Dynasty to stabilize its regime within a hundred years and there will be no major turmoil.

In a hundred years, the entire world has already completed national integration and cultural unification, and all the people in the world are Chinese.

The conflicts at that time were internal conflicts within the Chinese nation. No matter who won the throne and ruled the world in the end, he would be the heir of the Han family, my son of China.

I am a person who cultivates immortality and is a cultivator. Is it enough for me to achieve this level?"

Song Xuan did not explain the issue of black skin and white skin, because he knew that Song Que would handle these matters himself. Song Que, the Heavenly Sword, had many years of research experience on how to keep the Han family's bloodline from being tarnished.

As for the experience, it’s hard to say much.
