Rebirth of the Four Seas Emperor

After Li Jingfeng set sail with 3 people, the Tianwu Gang's expedition was also put on the agenda.

It's just that the Tianwu Gang has a great cause, and they can't get rid of so many people at once.

According to the plan, the first batch of 3 people will be relocated, all of whom are young and strong.

The second batch of 5 people will be relocated in June next year.

The remainder would immigrate the year after.

After the Tianwu Gang's immigration is completed, most of the Han people on Xiaoliuqiu Island will be lost and will need to be filled by immigrants from the mainland.

These things all need to be coordinated by Hou Yao.

While Hou Yao was busy arranging for the Tianwu Gang to move to North America and establish a country, the war in Daxia resumed.

In early April, Gao Xiaosong led [-] new troops from the imperial court to attack Luoyang City, the royal city of King Zheng, and destroyed the city in three days.

King Zheng set himself on fire in the royal city of Luoyang, shocking the whole country.

Then Gao Xiaosong led his army southward, approaching Nanzhili.

King Huai, who was guarding Poyang, sent an army of [-] to attack them. They were defeated in one battle and Nanzhili surrendered.

Gao Xiaosong took advantage of the situation and led his army to attack Poyang City.

The King of Huai had no choice but to abandon Poyang City and flee with his family to Xiangyang to seek asylum from the King of Chu. However, they encountered bandits on the way and the whole family was killed.

At the beginning of May, Gao Xiaosong took advantage of the great victory and attacked Xiangyang again. The king of Chu led the navy to attack.

The division that defeated the navy and fought for a long time was not comparable to the peaceful divisions of King Zheng and King Huai.

With all their equipment lagging behind, Po Haijun relied on matchlocks and a few cannons to withstand Gao Xiaosong's fusiliers.

The two sides fought for more than ten days, and each lost several elite troops. Gao Xiaosong's new army was frustrated and had to return to Beijing for preparations.

Within a month, two kings were killed, and the world was shocked.

In early June, King Tan and the old emperor were furious when they heard the news in the ancient city of Xinnanbai.

Ji Honghe told the world that he was still alive, and at the same time announced that Ji Gaosheng, the king of Zhou, was a traitor who killed his father and brother in order to seize the throne.

Immediately, King Yin also announced that he would raise troops from Xinnan to defeat the rebellious Ji Gaosheng on behalf of his father.

After these pieces of news came out one after another, the whole country of Daxia was shocked.

Zhejiang and Fujian were originally the separate territories of King Huai. After King Huai was forced to death, many officials in the two places were angry with the Zhou Dynasty and dared not speak out.

Now that King Yin has raised an army, it should have been the time for everyone to respond, but instead he used the banner of the old emperor, which was daunting for a while.

In addition, powerful people all know how Xinnan Province was defeated, so no one is really optimistic about King Tan.

So some officials came to Bao'an County. At first, it was just one or two powerful families seeking the protection of the Bao'an Army.

However, as King Tan and the old emperor officially sent troops, officials from the two provinces were worried that the war would spread to their own provinces, so they simply organized a group and came to Bao'an County.

The princess hotel was blocked for a while and it was impossible to get out.

"Your Highness, Zhou Ding, the political envoy to the left in Zhejiang, and Liu Kan, the political envoy to the left in Fujian, are here to ask for an audience."

Luo Yan came back with an anxious look and reported to Ji Wenjun that there were too many officials asking to see them in the past few days, and she couldn't tell who was coming, which was really annoying.

Ji Wenjun was fighting for landlords with Yu Xiuer and Zhou Sheng's wife Zhao. When she heard the official titles of Zhejiang Zuo Buzheng Envoy and Fujian Zuo Buzheng Envoy, her eyes suddenly twitched.

At the moment, I could only lament: "Oh, these old people are really annoying. It seems that I can't play this card."

Yu Xiuer didn't know much about Daxia's official system, so she still asked with a confused face: "Princess, you ignored so many officials before, why can't you play cards when these two people come? Are their officials very big?"

Ji Wenjun smiled bitterly: "These two are the heads of civil servants in the two provinces. They are both emotional and rational. I cannot offend them."

Yu Xiuer was also secretly surprised. The people who came before were prefects, counselors and the like, but Ji Wenjun ignored them at all. Unexpectedly, the top officials from the two provinces came today.

"Then Your Highness, my sister-in-law and I went into the room first. You can call us after you finish your work here."

Ji Wenjun nodded: "Well, I will send them away as soon as possible."

After Yu Xiuer and Zhao entered the inner hall, Ji Wenjun asked Luo Yan to bring them in.

"Your Majesty Liu Kan (Zhou Ding), please see Your Highness the Princess."

After saying that, he had to kneel down and bow down.

Ji Wenjun hurriedly took the lead, supported the more senior Liu Kan with both hands and said: "Master Liu, you are a highly respected man, how can I accept such a great gift from you?"

Liu Kan was over seventy years old and had served as the Zuobu envoy in Fujian for ten years. He was supposed to retire and return to his hometown three years ago, but due to the civil strife in the Daxia royal family, he continued to serve until now. In the past few years, Fujian Province has been so peaceful. It can be said that Liu Kan has contributed a lot to its development.

"Your Highness, the old and new emperors are now at war with each other, and I don't know what to choose. Moreover, this year's veteran minister is already over [-], and he really does not have the energy to shoulder the heavy burden of official affairs in this province. There is no great talent in Fujian Province that can be put to great use. , so after much thought, I realized that only Her Royal Highness, the Princess, has both political integrity and talent, as well as wisdom and courage, so I would like to ask Your Highness to move to Fujian and take charge of the overall situation."

When Zhou Ding heard this, he immediately said anxiously: "Master Liu, how can this be done? Your Royal Highness, I have been in charge of the official affairs of Zhejiang Province for more than three years. However, my talents are insufficient and I have not made much achievements. Now the turmoil is about to break out. The Jiangnan granary is related to the country. I am afraid that I will interfere with political affairs, so I also ask Her Royal Highness the Princess to move to Zhejiang to take charge of the overall situation."

Liu Kan didn't expect that Zhou Ding also had the same goal as him, they both wanted to draw the princess into his territory, and he suddenly became very angry.

"Master Zhou, you are young and powerful, how can you do such a recommendation? It is true that Fujian is not as wealthy as Jiangnan, but Fujian's population is not less than Zhejiang. If there is really trouble, it will also shake the foundation of Daxia."

Now the whole world knows that Ji Wenjun has a powerful army. They think that as long as the princess goes to their territory, her elite troops will naturally follow her.

No matter who wins in the end, King Zhou or King Xi, they will not attack a princess with strong soldiers.

In the end, the world is settled, and the winning emperor will only be gentle and win over the princess. By then, as people in the princess camp, they will naturally have enough capital to negotiate terms. This is the real purpose of the two bosses.

Betting on the King of Zhou or King Nian only has a half chance of victory, but betting on the Princess will make you invincible.

This was basically a score-rewarding question, so they came to Bao'an County not far away from Qianli in person.

"Two gentlemen, may I ask if there are any places in Fujian and Zhejiang that have running water?"

Liu Kan and Zhou Ding shook their heads together.

Ji Wenjun asked again: "Is there any place with electricity?"

Liu Kan and Zhou Ding looked at each other with blank expressions on their faces.

Ji Wenjun smiled when he saw their faces: "You two adults have just arrived in Bao'an County today, right? You might as well stay here for two nights to carefully experience the charm of the sleepless city of Bao'an County. To be honest, except for Bao'an County, where is the owner now? Neither of them will go, and besides, I don’t even have a title, I am just an idle princess, and I have no intention of participating in political affairs, so you two adults should not mention it again about moving the town to another place. Of course, I am the princess of Daxia, so naturally I will not let the local government collapse. If the two adults have any trouble to deal with, I will lend a helping hand."

Liu Kan and Zhou Ding arrived in a hurry, and did not know enough about the princess's character, nor did they know what words to use to impress her. Now that the topic was about this, they couldn't say anything more, and in the end they had no choice but to surrender.

"Wei Chen retire."

"Luoyan, send the two adults out."

"Yes, princess."

After Liu Kan and Zhou Ding left, Ji Wenjun fell into deep thought.

After thinking about the current situation carefully, she knew from her perspective that Daxia was about to be ruined by her brothers and her father, but she never worried that Daxia would be destroyed.

Firstly, she came because she knew that with the Baoan Army there, she would not let Daxia really fall into chaos.

Secondly, I have been with Hou Yao for so many years, and after seeing Baoan's New Deal, I also know that Daxia is plagued by chronic diseases, and it can only be broken and then established.

This civil strife may actually be a major opportunity for Daxia to rise from the ashes.

The only uncertainty is who will become the Great Xia Supreme after resurrecting from the ashes.

Moreover, she also knew that Hou Yao's attitude was crucial to Daxia's wish to rise from the ashes, so she was willing to follow him namelessly and without status.

Love is only one aspect. More importantly, she wants to win over Hou Yao on behalf of the royal family. At the same time, she will also take away most of Hou Yao's huge political achievements.

As long as she is in Bao'an County for a day, both the people and officials will think that Bao'an County achieved its results with the support of the royal family. Therefore, no matter how great the achievements Bao'an achieves, it will all be due to the royal family.

But once she leaves here, Bao'an County will immediately be out of the control of the royal family.

In the past two years, she has been desperately trying to win over important people in the county, just to help the royal family win over people here.

Let the dignitaries here not completely alienate from the Daxia royal family.

Although it seems that Hou Yao has no ambition to become emperor at present, who can say for sure in the future?So we have to be careful.

In her heart, she naturally hopes that her brother, King Tan, can achieve the final victory.

But she also knew that Hou Yao had some reservations about his support for King Xin's petty behavior in Xinnan.

Xinnan was conquered by Hou Yao, but King Xin ran to pick the fruits without any hesitation. In the end, even Hou Yao's legacy industry had to get a share of the pie.

Of course, Ji Wenjun knew that Hou Yao wouldn't care about this loss of interests, but King Xi's placement of a spy in Bao'an and the fact that he brought his father back to Tiannan completely offended Hou Yao.

And since he knew that Hou Yao was Ji Qianhui's grandson, King Xi gave up the idea of ​​asking Hou Yao to send troops. After that, he acted even more without scruples. He even took away half of the shares of Xinnan's natural rubber factory.

Ji Wenjun was also a little confused about what his good brother was thinking. He knew that Hou Yao was an important person who needed to win over, but he still wanted to offend him again and again.

We had a good relationship at first, but now it's getting worse and worse.

Ji Wenjun wanted to help his eldest brother seize the throne, so he gave all his power to him.

I thought I would never be able to help my elder brother in any way, but I didn't expect that new power would come to my door now.

It is the power of two provinces, Zhejiang, which is home to the prosperous land in the south of the Yangtze River, and Fujian, which is home to the important maritime trade center of Quanzhou.

One of these two provinces has money, and the other has food. It would not be a bad thing if they could both be conquered and support the elder brother's rise to power.

But it is absolutely impossible for oneself to leave Bao'an County, but how can one win over the hearts of the people in these two provinces if he doesn't leave?

Ji Wenjun thought hard and couldn't find the solution.

At this moment, Luo Yan came again to report:

"Your Highness, there is Mr. Shen Yingwen, the Right Chief Minister of Guangxi, outside asking for an audience...".
