Chapter 685 Shocking the Government and the People
Chapter 685 Shocking the Government and the People
In the past, poisons were prepared according to the degree of toxicity. I never thought that by using the principle of drug antagonism, I could prepare a highly toxic poison like the eye-rolling poison.
After understanding the principle, Sun Qian gave Shang Rou a thumbs up in admiration.
"Junior sister is really amazing!"
He really couldn't help but accept it. At this moment, he admired the little princess in front of him very much.
I used to think that I was a medical genius and that my medical skills were unique.
But compared with the little princess in front of him, she is simply incomparable. The little princess has completely inherited the medical talent of the Crown Princess.
He can't compare to her. She is so capable at such a young age. When she grows up, I'm afraid even the Crown Princess will be inferior to her.
After deciding to annex Tiansheng Kingdom, preparations began in the next few days.
Sun Qian was responsible for purchasing medicinal materials, while Shang Jiao and Shang Rou were responsible for the production of the rolling eyes. Everything was in preparation for the battle.
Shang Zhanchen planned to use courtesy before force, and wrote a letter to Emperor Tiansheng, ordering them to surrender Tiansheng Kingdom within three days.
Otherwise, the Shang army would attack the imperial city directly. How could Tiansheng Kingdom agree so easily?
After receiving Shang Zhanchen's letter, there were intense discussions in the court every day to discuss countermeasures against the Shang army.
In fact, Shang Zhanchen did not expect them to surrender voluntarily. After three days without receiving a reply, he led an army of 300,000 and entered the territory of Tiansheng.
The mighty Da Shang army was in high spirits. According to the previous deployment, they directly used the rolling eyes to clear the way, even though the Tiansheng army had already taken protective measures.
But it was inevitable that some soldiers would roll their eyes and still a large number of them would be hit, and large numbers of Tiansheng troops would fall down continuously.
They were not at an advantage in terms of numbers to begin with, and now their combat effectiveness has been greatly weakened. The outcome of the battle can be imagined.
In order to preserve combat effectiveness, Chu Yunba could only order his soldiers to abandon defending the city and retreat.
As a result, this retreat opened the chapter of the country's destruction, and Shang Zhanchen led his soldiers to pursue the victory.
The Tiansheng Army was defeated step by step, with no momentum and morale. Later, they heard that the Dashang Army treated the prisoners well.
Some of them surrendered, while others deserted. For a time, the Tiansheng Army was in chaos.
This also made the Da Shang army more powerful, and they marched forward like a hot knife through butter and headed straight for the Tiansheng Imperial City.
The emperor, who was far away in the capital, was completely unaware of all this. Firstly, they were afraid that the emperor would object if he knew about it. Secondly, they were afraid that the emperor would worry and it would affect his health.
At this moment, the emperor was counting on his fingers, waiting for his beloved grandson and granddaughter to return to the palace, but what he got was the news that they had already gone to Lingbei.
I was really shocked again, but I also knew that even if I asked them to come back, they would not listen.
But when I heard that they brought so many white-eyed people with them, I thought the war in Lingbei would soon be over.
Even Shen Yiyi and the Queen thought so. Rou'er rolled her eyes so vigorously that it seemed that the war in Lingbei would be over soon.
As a result, they waited in a row but still did not receive any news about the great victory in Lingbei, which made Shen Yiyi and the Queen very worried.
Even the emperor could not sit still. Could something have happened in Lingbei? If not, why had there been no news for so long?
Messages were constantly sent by carrier pigeons to Lingbei, and the news we received was that everything was normal.
He felt at ease at first, but as time went on, the emperor realized that something was wrong.
Given the habits of the Tiansheng Kingdom, how could there be no movement for four or five months? And given Chu Yunba's warlike nature, how could there be no movement for several months?
Even the court officials found it very abnormal. It was too unreasonable.
At the morning court, after discussing matters, the emperor brought up the matter of Lingbei again.
"I plan to send someone to Lingbei." He looked at the court officials.
Lingbei has been so quiet for so long, which seems very unusual. Chen'er must be hiding something from him.
Since he couldn't get the answer by asking, he sent someone to take a look and see what was happening over there.
Just as the ministers were about to express their opinions, war reports came from outside.
"A great victory in Lingbei. Our army has invaded the Tiansheng Palace and incorporated Tiansheng into the territory of Dashang."
"What?!" The emperor stood up suddenly.
He looked at the messenger in disbelief, thinking he was hallucinating. Even the others looked stunned.
He stared at the messenger, just like the emperor, like a fool.
"Your Majesty, the Crown Prince has led our army into the Tiansheng Palace three days ago, and the officials of Tiansheng have already surrendered to our Great Shang!"
The messenger's voice was still a little trembling. When he received the news, he thought he had seen it wrong.
"What did you say!" The emperor was even more shocked.
Just as he was about to rush down the court to confirm whether he had heard it wrong, he was pulled back by Eunuch An.
"Your Majesty, let me go."
After helping the emperor back to sit on the dragon throne, Eunuch An ran down with shaking legs.
As soon as he took the letter back from the messenger, he couldn't wait to unfold it. When he saw the contents inside, his voice changed.
"Your Majesty, it's true!"
I thought I had misheard just now, but now I see it clearly written above, it turns out that what I heard was true.
"Quick, read it to me." The emperor's voice was also trembling.
"Yes." Eunuch An hurriedly began to read.
“Your Majesty, in order to eliminate the threat of Tiansheng Kingdom, I am leading the army to invade Tiansheng Kingdom.
After a long journey of five months, they finally invaded the Tiansheng Imperial City and killed the Tiansheng Emperor. Now the officials of the Tiansheng court are willing to submit..."
Next, Shang Zhan City had to stay there to deal with some follow-up matters, but the emperor basically refused to listen.
There was only one sentence in his mind: Chen'er attacked the Tiansheng Imperial City and killed the Tiansheng Emperor.
Even the other court officials were standing there like fools, their mouths open in shock.
My head was buzzing and I always felt like I was dreaming.
"..."
The prince actually took over Tiansheng Kingdom. This is too horrifying.
There were more than a hundred people in the court, but now it was as if no one was there, it was eerily quiet.
It was a long time before the emperor saw Eunuch De.
"Read it again." It always feels like this isn't real.
"Yes." Eunuch An read the memorial again, and everyone's expressions recovered a little.
"Your Majesty, the Crown Prince has a far-sighted vision and is a master at using military force. He is truly the patron saint of our Great Shang." Shen Ze stepped forward excitedly.
His voice was shaking. He never dreamed that the Great Shang Kingdom could annex the Tiansheng Kingdom, which had always been brave and warlike.
"That's right, the prince is truly a god!"
After everyone recovered from their shock, they came forward and echoed.
I still feel hard to calm down at this moment. I never thought that one day Tiansheng Kingdom would be incorporated into the territory of Dashang Kingdom.
Listening to the praises from the ministers, the emperor finally came to his senses.
"My dear ministers, you are right. Chen'er is indeed a descendant of the Great Shang Dynasty. Hehehe...
The smile was so forced. Even though I confirmed it was true, it was still a little hard to accept.
Tiansheng Kingdom was destroyed by Chen'er...!
