Dugu Sheng put down the tea bug, picked up the brush and wrote on the paper. After a while, he took out his jade seal from his arms and covered it. He raised his eyes and looked at the underworld.
"Pluto."
"Yes, what can I do for you, prince?" The underworld came forward and bowed his hand.
"Here are twelve instructions from the king. Take a group of people back to the East China Sea immediately."
Dugu Sheng handed out a stack of letters, and the underworld immediately took them.
Dugu Sheng said: "this is the letter that the king ordered to assemble the Yinglong army in the East China Sea. When you go back to the East China Sea, divide the Yinglong army into twelve teams and send them to the twelve border of Daxia. Later, they will be the town generals of the twelve border. The king asked them to defend the border of Daxia to the death. If they are slighted, they will be killed."
"Yes." The underworld answers.
His voice was sonorous and powerful, and his tiger eyes were bright. He saluted Dugu Sheng deeply, then turned around and walked out of the hall quickly.
The courtiers were glad to see Hades leave.
Prince Sheng, the new emperor, is really vigorous and resolute. The twelve border gates are the border towns guarding the gate of Daxia.
No matter which country, when the emperor dies, it is most likely to cause a coup. In case of civil strife, the covetous enemy country will take the opportunity to attack. That's worse.
As long as you keep the door of the country, you can deal with the family's affairs slowly. To keep the door of the country, you have to have an absolutely strong army, and the Yinglong army of Prince Sheng, who has been through many battles, is there. They will have no worries.
Gu Ziyun walked out of the court, saluted Dugu Sheng, and said, "the emperor is wise. God bless me for Daxia, and Daxia will finally have the master."
"Emperor Shengming." The courtiers all knelt down to worship.
Dugu Sheng was not moved by the courtiers' worship. He still had no facial expression. He reached out and stroked the teapot, which was no longer hot. He picked it up and poured it into his mouth.
He did so because he had been busy for a long time and he was really thirsty.
And this kind of bold and forthright action, let courtiers surprised stare big eyes.
In the eyes of courtiers who pay attention to etiquette, the emperor's words and deeds must be dignified and appropriate, because the emperor represents the great Xia. If other countries see such rude behavior, they will laugh at it.
If it had been in the past, some officials would have come forward to warn the emperor. But to the new emperor, they looked at each other and did not dare to say anything.
When Dugu Sheng was full, he put the teapot on the table. He got up and went down the steps.
The courtiers looked at him puzzled, waiting for the new emperor's admonition.
Dugu Sheng comes to Dugu Qing. Dugu Qing gives him a little salute. Dugu Sheng grabs his wrist and walks up the steps.
"What do you want to do, emperor?" Dugu Qing was dragged up the steps by Dugu Sheng and asked.
Dugu Sheng didn't say anything. He just pulled him to the Dragon case and pushed him to the seat of Jiulong.
Dugu Qing jumped up in fear and said, "emperor, why don't you believe in my loyalty? I swear to heaven that I have no second intention towards the emperor. I...... "
"Shut up. Sit still for the king. " Dugu Sheng said coldly.
"Well."
Dugu Qing looked at him with great anxiety, thinking whether Dugu Sheng was testing him or trying to find a reason to kill him.
After all, after the death of the emperor, he failed to inherit the grand unification. His identity was too embarrassing and sensitive. Did Dugu Sheng want to attack him?
However, when he saw that Dugu Sheng came to the front of the Dragon case and suddenly knelt down in front of him with one leg, he was stunned.
"Emperor, this is..."
Dugu Qing jumps up and Dugu Sheng kneels down on one leg. It's a military ceremony, not a monarch's and his officials' ceremony, but it has shocked him.
You know, when my father was alive, uncle Jiuhuang had never knelt down before, not even the one legged kneeling ceremony in the army.
Uncle jiuhuangshu is now the emperor. His behavior to himself makes him more scared.
All the courtiers were shocked to see what the new emperor was going to do.
"Sit down." Dugu Sheng drank fiercely, and his blue eyes were awe inspiring.
Dugu Qing slowly sat on the seat of Jiulong, feeling like a needle on a needle. His pretty face was full of confusion and panic.
Dugu Sheng arched his hand and said, "I'd like to see the emperor. I'm willing to do my best to help the emperor settle the country and achieve great achievements."
"Ah? This This... "
Dugu Qing couldn't sit still any longer. He quickly got up, ran to Dugu Sheng, knelt down, kowtowed and said, "emperor, you must not. You have promised what your father asked you to do. You can't go back."
The courtiers were also flustered. They all knelt down and said, "emperor, you have promised the former Emperor. You can't break your promise. Please put the overall situation first."
Dugu Sheng took Dugu Qing to his feet, took his shaking hand and looked at the courtiers. He said, "what I promised my brother was that I would protect Daxia from foreign enemies. I didn't make it clear that I should inherit the throne."
"This, you, when is it? You still play the square character game with me." The courtier said bitterly."I don't want to play games with you. I don't want to be an emperor. I don't like to be bound. It's as if I just picked up the teapot and drank it. Your face changed. You must think that my words and deeds are not elegant. The emperor shouldn't be like this.
However, I'm a cheerful and forthright man. I don't like to be bound by etiquette and law... "
"The emperor has a bright disposition. These little things are harmless. In the eyes of his ministers, the one who can govern the country well is a good emperor. There is no need to stick to these rituals." Gu Ziyun said.
"You say you don't have to be rigid, but once you sit in this position, you have to attach everything you say and do to it, which is like putting yourself in a shackle. I know what you mean, but I'm not the only one who can save Da Xia, and it's unfair to the prince. " Dugu Sheng said.
"No, there is no unfairness. I really can't take the big responsibility. As long as I can make Daxia better, I can do anything. What I say is from the bottom of my heart." Dugu Qing said.
"I believe you, but I don't agree with your brother's decision. I will help him keep it in summer, but I won't be emperor.
I've made up my mind. Don't talk to any of you. I'll let the prince inherit the great rule and become the new emperor of the great Xia Dynasty. I'll help the new emperor, and I'll be happy. "
Dugu Sheng said, pulling Dugu Qing to sit him on the dragon's seat.
He went to the head of the Dragon case, pointed to the waiter and said, "go and bring a chair for the king."
"Er, oh, right away." The waiter answered blankly, and hurriedly took the chair and put it behind Dugu Sheng.
When Dugu Sheng sat down, he took out a letter from his arms and called Dugu Qing, who was on the dragon's throne.
Dugu Qing took the letter with trembling hands. When he opened it, he saw Cang Jin's powerful handwriting, which was about all kinds of official placement.
Because of Qi Zixian's betrayal, most of the court officials in Daxia were killed and injured, and the government was paralyzed. Dugu Sheng's Zha Zi clearly arranged the official positions of the court officials, and he had to admire this Nine Emperor uncle.
Only now did Dugu Qing realize that uncle Jiuhuang was not testing him. He really wanted him to be the emperor of Daxia. He was moved and his eyes were full of tears.
He stood up, went to Dugu Sheng, knelt down and saluted him the most.
