Chapter 391: 209 Founding and Ascension to the Throne

He was only 102 years old this year, an age at which ordinary people might have already reached their limits.

But for an Inborn Grandmaster, this period of life was the prime time, with nearly fifty years left to live.

What was even rarer was that his current cultivation had reached the second stage of Inborn, and he had a slight chance of touching the third stage, the legendary Great Grandmaster realm.

Given all these conditions, for Shen Qiu, the temporary failure and concession were entirely tolerable.

He looked at those discouraged and dispirited fellows and scolded them loudly.

“Isn’t it just giving away three counties?

Let Lu Yuan and those thieves delight in it for now.

When I become the emperor and inherit the throne, I can recuperate for twenty or thirty years, and with the wealth of Linhai County and Yuzhang Prefecture, gather millions of strong soldiers without any trouble.

By then, I will personally lead the soldiers and eliminate those bandits one by one.”

In Shen Qiu’s heart, he was filled with great ambitions and aspirations.

He could afford to wait.

He could use twenty or thirty years to recuperate, and another twenty or thirty years to conquer the world.

By then, the lost territory of the former Xiao Yue Dynasty would be recaptured by the new Shen Dynasty, undoubtedly proving the legitimacy of the Shen Dynasty over the Xiao family.

With such merits, his Shen Clan of Changzhou would gain the support of other aristocratic families. It would be natural for him to hold the throne for another hundred or two hundred years.

So even if he lost three counties when he took office, it was terrible.

But for Shen Qiu, it wasn’t too terrible either.

Upon hearing his words, people like Yang Jing couldn’t help but feel a little more spirited, finally regaining some confidence.

Indeed, given the strength and life expectancy of this Grand General.

As long as they could catch their breath, there would be no big problem in reassembling the old territory based on the four prefectures of Jiangdong in another twenty or thirty years.

With this in mind, Yang Jing also encouraged himself, “When the time comes, I am willing to be the vanguard for the Grand General, wipe out the Lu bandits, and reclaim Dongting County.”

Twenty or thirty years later, Yang Jing would only be eighty or ninety years old, in the prime of life, with his strength at its peak.

By then, he would personally resolve the mistake he had made.

Upon hearing his words, Shen Qiu laughed heartily, “By then I will appoint Yang Qing as the General of the Western Conquest, leading an army of 300,000 to eliminate Lu Ni.”

Shen Qiu still valued Yang Jing very much.

After all, he was one of the six Inborn experts among the aristocratic families.

And by then, he might be one of the top five.

Because the Marquis of Wuan, Bai Mengyang, was nearing the end of his days and would not live long enough to see the court revive and conquer the world.

By that time, Shen Qiu himself would also grow old and gradually weaken.

By then, it would be up to the younger generation like Yang Jing and Shangguan Ming to shoulder the responsibility of the dynasty.

Seeing the younger generation with such determination now, Shen Qiu was naturally very happy, as it represented the vitality and vigor of the future New Dynasty.

“I hereby congratulate the Grand General.”

Seeing the two of them so spirited, others like Shangshu Ling Huo Tingyu could not help but congratulate them.

However, compared to the two of them, they were not as excited.

Besides Shen Qiu and Yang Jing, the other four were not Inborn, and could only live as long as ordinary people, eighty or ninety years old, or maybe a hundred.

Being in such high positions now, they were already in their fifties or sixties, or even older.

The prosperity of the New Dynasty that Grand General Shen Qiu spoke of was something they were destined not to see or participate in.

On the contrary.

Before the prosperous New Dynasty arrived, during the difficult days of the fall of Da Yue and the early establishment of the New Dynasty, these few people had to go through.

Such a thing was not worth celebrating.

Of course, if the Grand General and Yang Jing could have such fighting spirit, and if the New Dynasty could really regain the lost territories of the three counties in the future, that would be a good thing for these people.

After all, they could not enjoy the prosperity, but their families and their descendants could indeed enjoy it.

The prosperity of the New Dynasty would be a good thing for them and the entire Coastal Aristocratic Family.

With this consensus, the six people, including Shen Qiu, reached a compromise, and the imperial edict to confer Lu Yuan and the other three as kings was quickly drafted by the court and sent down with the seal of Emperor Hongdao.

However, it is said that Emperor Hongdao choked and sobbed several times when sealing the edict, crying out that he was unfaithful to his ancestors and did great harm to the Altars of Soil and Grain, with an extremely sad expression.

Apparently.

Although they could continue to be one of the six or seven aristocratic families after abdicating and hold high positions in the New Dynasty, looking down on all living beings from on high.

But having been accustomed to being the royal family and sitting on the throne as the supreme ruler, and having been used to being bowed to by everyone in the world.

It was still a bit hard for the emperor of the Xiao family to accept this sudden fall from power.

But there was no way out, as the consensus reached by the entire Coastal Aristocratic Family represented the opinions of the entire court.

Under this trend, as a puppet emperor, he was helpless.

He could only act as a rubber stamp and couldn’t do anything else.

In the fifth month of the seventh year of the Hongdao era, on the fifteenth day,

Yang Jing, who had been away for nearly a month, quickly returned to Dongting County after receiving the court’s canonization decree and then traveling day and night.

And again he met with Lu Yuan outside Yiyang City.

“The court has agreed to confer you as the King of Changsha, with Dongting County as your nation. Yan Wangqiu is to be conferred as the King of Nanhai, with Nanhai County as his nation. Su Xuange is to be conferred as the King of Ninghai, with Yulin County as his nation.”

Upon meeting, Yang Jing went straight to the point and informed Lu Yuan of the court’s canonization.

King of Changsha?

Dongting County as a nation.

Upon hearing these two key pieces of information, Lu Yuan, who had long hoped for this, could not help but laugh, “I thank the emperor for his grace and the court for its generosity here.”
