sweeping the world

Chapter 378
For Ran Min, the country's title can be dispensed with, but the throne cannot be dispensed with.After all, he is not alone, there is a whole group below.

It was more than a month after Liu Yan, who was thousands of miles away, learned the final result of the Guanzhong War. He read the battle report several times, and his brows never relaxed.

"Your Majesty, did Fu Hong really make an unexpected choice?" Ji Chang was talking about Fu Hong decisively leading people to Longxi, and he said with a smile: "This is the most suitable choice for the Fu clan." .”

"Tai'an's 'suitable' is a good word." Liu Yan said with a little melancholy: "There is never the best choice in the world, only the most suitable one. It's just that in the future... I'm afraid there will be troubles in Guanzhong."

"King Qin is on his way to Zizi." Ji Chang still didn't understand what Liu Yan wanted to do, and asked again: "What is the king's arrangement for King Qin?"

Speaking of it is still very tangled, Liu Yan didn't become emperor, he is a king himself, it can be said that it is very fucked to keep the throne after Ran Min surrendered.

As for proclaiming himself emperor, Liu Yan is not a macaque who is crowned the king. Although the territory of the Han Kingdom is not small, it is far from proclaiming the emperor.

"The widow is also worrying about this matter." Liu Yan had nothing to hide from Ji Chang, and said directly: "If the widow doesn't make Ran Min the king, will he directly... um, independence? Rebellion?"

It's hard to choose words, because Ran Min wants to belong to him, but the necessary ceremony and thorn seal have not been carried out. If the name is not right, the words will be wrong.

This time, it wasn't just Ran Min who brought people to Lazi, Xie Aicai from Zhang's Liangguo returned to Lazi without taking on an important mission.

The former "Three Kings Alliance" Although Liu Yan never admitted it, the world would not see it that way. It is obviously Ran Min's intention that Zhang's Liang Kingdom is coming, but they don't know why Ran Min is pulling Zhang's Liang Kingdom. What are you going to do.

For Liu Yan, the troubles are not limited to those. Apart from Liao Yidong, the most noteworthy thing is the personal conquest of Shihu with a lot of thunder and little rain.

The Zhao army in Shijie in Dunqiu County has been increasing, but Shihu is still nestled in Yecheng and has not left.

The news reported to the country by the secret operations of several countries in Yecheng is that Shihu is still singing every night, but the number of murders at every turn recently is far more than ever.Shi Hu's hobbies are no longer satisfied with sticking or beheading. I heard that he has recently become obsessed with skinning and lighting lamps, especially with those great scholars.

Shihu's singing and singing every night and his hobby of killing did not hinder worshiping the Buddha. While "Namo Amitabha" he used all kinds of means to kill people. Not to mention how frightening Shijie's officials were with this weird painting style.

One of the matters that the Han State attaches great importance to is the collusion between Murong Yan State and Shijie Zhao State. After many inquiries, there is no news.This is also something that surprised the whole Han country. If it weren't for knowing that Shihu was brutal but not stupid, he should really suspect that he was a fool, and he could only think in the direction of temporary brain cramps.

Ji Chang disagreed in every possible way that Ran Min should continue to be the king of Qin. The reason, of course, was that Liu Yan did not claim the title of emperor. It would be weird to be crowned king by a king, and it would shake the state of the country.

Originally, when something happened in Guanzhong, Xie An should lead his troops to join Li Kuang's troops according to the plan, and threaten Shijie's Zhao army from the flank of Dunqiu County. Happy, but it is really better to change than to change according to the plan, and become Nanyang County where Xie An led the army to break into the Jin territory. It needs to teach the Eastern Jin Dynasty to know that the Han army is not forbidden to enter the Jin territory.

To put it bluntly, Liu Yan also wants to know how well Xie An and other people south of the Yangtze River can deal with the small ~ court ~ court officials of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and this is very important.

The immobility of the stone tiger is the most unavoidable thing to guard against, which has led to several countries having to treat it with caution.The most troublesome thing belongs to the Han Kingdom, where the road to Guanzhong must be kept open. Xie An and Li Kuang's plan to seize Nanyang County is also based on such considerations.

"The stalls are getting bigger and bigger..." Liu Yan found that he was a little out of control recently, and it became more and more out of control with the expansion of the site: "It's not enough to occupy those places."

Ji Chang, as Prime Minister Zuo of the Han Kingdom, naturally hoped that the larger the territory, the better, but he also knew that the prosperity of a country was not only determined by the territory, but also by the stability and instability of the structure, which is why he believed that Guanzhong would become a hidden danger.

In fact, no matter whether it is Ji Chang or whoever it is, no one knows why Liu Yan is so obsessed with Ran Min. According to them, it is in the interests of Han to keep Guanzhong in a state of contention, but whether to include Ran Min is a matter of choice. optional.

"Your Majesty, the land of Nanyang County... cannot be occupied by force." Ji Chang was not afraid of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, nor did he have any favorable impression of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. He said matter-of-factly: "The land in Guanzhong is too far away from Qingzhou, so it is an enclave. It's a huge burden."

So to say that something is out of Liu Yan's control does not mean being forced to do something, but being forced to do something by the current situation.He said annoyedly: "Whether Ran Min is real or fake, he has removed his country title and changed his flag, and people are rushing to Linzi. The Han country cannot be pushed out."

Ji Chang was speechless for a moment.

Their guess beforehand was that Ran Min's claiming to be a vassal meant something. After all, not everyone could do it after building a country by himself, especially after he tasted the throne.

The result was good, Ran Min quickly went to the country. Although he still wanted to be the king, he left Guanzhong and his subordinates in ruins very sincerely, and would soon arrive in Linzi.

"Maybe... you can... refuse King Qin's king's request. If he doesn't accept..." Ji Chang said helplessly: "I mean, if he doesn't accept it, then it's not the king's fault. The bad reputation outside is also the fault of King Qin. .”

Liu Yan can directly call Ran Min's name because both of them are kings.As a minister, Ji Chang is a minister after all, and he must maintain respect for the king even if he does not want to appear on the surface.

No matter how depressed Liu Yan was, Ran Min arrived in Linzi in light clothes.

Ran Min, who came from far away from Guanzhong, brought only [-] entourages, including some important confidantes, and his sincerity towards Liu Yan couldn't be more serious.

When the group arrived in Linzi, they didn't just gallop into the city directly, they dismounted in order to show respect according to Tiao You's opinion, and they also wanted to see how Liu Yan would react.

Naturally, Liu Yan did not greet him in person. The person who came forward was Zuo Prime Minister Ji Chang. The courtesy given to Ran Min could only be said to be appropriate but not grand.

After waiting for the etiquette to be completed, Ji Chang talked with Ran Min for a while, and it was only after Ji Chang left that Ran Min's face darkened.

"The widow thinks that the king will come to greet him in person." Ran Min didn't think there was anything wrong with his claim, let alone expressing dissatisfaction with his confidant, and said directly: "The widow wants to offer the king a big pass. No matter how important the etiquette is, it is appropriate!"

Tiaoyou said happily: "The king will not really pay attention to you if he does not come in person. If he comes in person... we will be in trouble."

Liu Yan didn't come, but Ji Chang brought Ran Zhi along.Now Ran Zhi is staying in the car where Ran Min is, and he couldn't help but interjected: "Father said carefully, the king has taken a lot of pressure to rush for thousands of miles. Besides, father should stop calling himself a widow, and wait for the king. The king promised his father that it will not be too late."

"You bastard, you've only been in Linzi for a few months and... just..." Ran Min couldn't go down anyway, what he saw was that Ran Zhi's immature face was full of seriousness, and changed his words Ask: "What else does Zhi'er know?"

Ran Zhi is not the eldest son of Ran Min, so why was he appointed as the crown prince... Oh, it should be the eldest son, but even if Ran Min appointed the crown prince, he didn't know if it was because of some deep meaning or because he didn't understand etiquette.He was established as the prince, even if he was still ignorant, the education he received later would teach him.

"The only thing I know is that my father has a lot of love this time." Ran Zhi said very seriously: "The king's kindness to his father is as high as the mountains and deeper than the sea. Since the father has decided to serve the king, he should be a courtier." You should not follow the path of self-destruction."

Ran Min and Tiao You looked at each other in an instant, and the expressions on their faces were as ugly as they could be.

"Thunderstorms, rain and dew are all the grace of the king, father should know." Ran Zhi didn't know whether he thought it up or who taught him, the child said big things, "Furthermore, who in the world doesn't know that the king is not concerned about the war, Travel thousands of miles to help. A villain knows his kindness and wants to repay it. My father is a great man, so don't be inferior to the villain."

This time Ran Min was really surprised. It was a kind of complex emotion as a father. He didn't know how to express his emotions. He was relieved that his son could say such words, or he felt ashamed and angry when he was taught by his son.

Regardless of Ran Min's mood, Liu Yan still gave him the dignity to come to the gate of Miyagi City to greet him.

Maybe some of Ran Zhi's words played a role?After getting off the car, Ran Min walked quickly towards Liu Yan. Before he got close, he shouted "Finally see the king", compared to the posture of saluting, and when he got close, he made a gesture like pushing a golden mountain and falling a jade pillar.

Liu Yan should have accepted Ran Min's kneeling, but he didn't, he quickly stepped forward to support him, and there was no third hand to help Tiao You and others.

Ran Min tried hard again and again but couldn't go on praying. He was very surprised that Liu Yan was so powerful. He lowered his head and had a gloomy expression on his face, but it was much better to find that Liu Yan was stronger than himself.

Not knowing what kind of consideration it was, Liu Yan asked very directly: "Do you still want the prince?"

"This..." Ran Min didn't know how to answer for a while, he stared blankly at Liu Yan's lips moving again and again, just kept saying "uh", other than that, he really couldn't say anything else.

"If you want a prince, I will receive you with the gift of diplomatic relations." Liu Yan looked more cheerful, and said: "If you don't want a prince, let's enter the palace together."

Ran Min gritted his teeth again and again, and suddenly said in a low voice: "The world is in chaos, and the barbarians and beasts have human faces and beast hearts, and you still proclaim yourself emperor. You have a grand plan and a heart to restore the glory of the Han family. You should be promoted to the throne to rectify your name."
