Iron Dynasty

Ciming Hall.

This used to be the side hall where Concubine Zhen lived. Because Xiao Ming ascended the throne, the name here was changed to Ciming Hall, because this Ciming Hall was the residence of the Empress Dowager in the Great Yu Kingdom.

After admonishing the maids and eunuchs in the palace, Xiao Ming and Fei Yue went to the Ciming Hall, which was the last ceremony of the enthronement ceremony to show the emperor's virtue of benevolence and filial piety.

After the salute, Xiao Ming and Fei Yue'er both breathed a sigh of relief. They were both physically and mentally exhausted after the day's tossing, and now they can finally rest.

Concubine Zhen has always disliked these messy etiquettes. If she hadn't cut down a lot of etiquette at the enthronement ceremony, the two would have been busy for a few hours.

It's the same with Pang Yukun and Fiji. The queen is pregnant, so it's not easy for the two of them. Concubine Zhen said, pulling Fei Yue'er to sit down.

Fei Yue'er said, Mother, don't worry, the emperor ascended the throne today, the ministers are very happy, and they all feel that it is better to be grand.

Okay, okay, you're the one who is the most amicable. Concubine Zhen smiled.

Now that Xiao Ming has become emperor, she is also at ease. From now on, her son will be above ten thousand people, and no one can challenge her authority. The only thing she needs to worry about is whether Xiao Ming will always be a famous monarch. .

After a pause, she turned to Xiao Ming and said, Your Majesty, the Queen Mother doesn't want to say much about the rest. With the current situation in the Great Yu Kingdom, the Queen Mother only hopes that you can be a person who can turn the tide as before.

Don't worry, Queen Mother, I will not be greedy for pleasure and forget the original intention of ascending the throne. Xiao Ming said, and suddenly changed his name to Zhen, but Xiao Ming was a little uncomfortable.

The two sat in the Ciming Hall for a while and then came out of the hall.

As the days passed, Fei Yue'er's belly was also getting bigger day by day, and it was more inconvenient to move than before, so Xiao Ming didn't want her to show her face everywhere now.

Back in the main hall, Xiao Ming helped Fei Yue'er to sit down on the edge of the bed. At this time, Qian Dafu went to the front of the hall and asked, Your Majesty, it's getting late, it's time to eat.

Xiao Ming glanced at Qian Dafu, and at this moment Qian Dafu's eyes flashed with excitement.

After he ascended the throne, Concubine Zhen assigned Qian Dafu to Xiao Ming. According to Concubine Zhen, the eunuch around him must be reliable.

Now Xiao Ming can only trust Qian Dafu, after thinking about it, he did not refuse.

Now Concubine Zhen also lives in the palace, she can just ask Qian Dafu to talk to her when she has nothing to do, and Concubine Zhen's mood has gradually stabilized now.

On weekdays, if you have nothing to do, you can eat fast food and recite Buddha, but you don’t need someone to accompany you all the time.

Xiao Ming nodded. At this time, the palace maid entered the main hall with the dishes, and the carefully cooked dishes were quickly placed on the table. These dishes were handed over to the dining room by Xiao Ming in order to supplement Fei Yue'er with nutrition.

When the dishes were served, Qian Dafu and the palace maid’s door stood guard outside the door, and the lights outside the bedroom were brightly lit. Although this was still a palace, it had some traces of life in the palace.

But even so, for Xiao Ming, he just changed his self-proclaimed name, and changed the servants to palace maids and eunuchs. This country is still the same country, and he needs to beat him down a little bit.

Your Majesty, our child is moving. Fei Yue'er's face was filled with happiness as a mother.

Xiao Ming's heart suddenly warmed when he heard the words, he said, So naughty, he must be a little prince in the future.

Fei Yue'er smiled softly, she stroked her stomach and said, I hope she is a girl, so that she will not be involved in the right and wrong in the future.

Xiao Ming's expression was gloomy. He naturally understood what Fei Yue'er meant. The Chang'an Rebellion must have left her with lingering fears. She didn't want her children to fall into this cruel political struggle.

Just being in the royal family has already destined her to be unable to escape some fate even if she is a princess, but Xiao Ming will never allow the battle of princes to repeat itself in the Great Yu Kingdom.

Because he will be the last emperor in the history of the Great Yu Kingdom, there will be no father-to-son inheritance after him, and the imperial power will continue from generation to generation.

Because he holds the technology spar, he must maintain his supreme imperial power, so that he can fully promote the development of technology, otherwise he will only be pulled to slice.

An emperor who has lost his rights is no different from a dog. In addition, he believes that he can use the knowledge of technology spar to lead the Great Yu Kingdom in the right direction.

It is precisely for this reason that he feels that it is impossible for him to occupy the throne, because whether it is in the past or in the future, the Great Yu Kingdom will follow the policy of sages governing the country, so that the country will not go down the road of destruction due to personal interests.

I will definitely protect him. Xiao Ming smiled gently, which made the happiness in Fei Yue'er's eyes even more intense.

Unable to restrain herself, she gently leaned on Xiao Ming's shoulder, facing the bright moon, she began to fantasize about the future.

Xiao Ming also looked at the bright moon in the sky, the enthronement ceremony ended successfully, and today's success is due to the bloody fighting of the soldiers of Fengguo to resist the coalition of the three kings.

He is a little worried now. He doesn't know what the current situation in Yunzhou City is.

While he was thinking about it, the soldiers of Yunzhou City had just ended a war. The city walls of Yunzhou City were full of coalition soldiers and corpses. The blood had dyed the city walls of Yunzhou City red, and the smell of blood was disgusting. , while under the city more corpses of soldiers lay in various shapes.

This was the fifth day of the Three Kings Allied Forces siege. Facing the city defended by artillery and muskets, the Allied Forces, which had lost 18,000 soldiers, were defeated again.

Taking advantage of the night, Niu Ben and his group of generals directed the soldiers to reinforce the city wall and transport artillery shells and gunpowder. Although the Three Kings Allied Forces attacked the city as usual today, they clearly felt the war-weariness of the allied soldiers.

Although the Overseer of the Allied Forces was still carrying out the cruel military orders, the soldiers didn't care when they attacked the city, and some soldiers even pretended to die under the city.

When they were cleaning the battlefield, these coalition soldiers would suddenly get up and surrender collectively. When they cleaned the battlefield tonight, they detained another 2,000 coalition soldiers who pretended to be dead.

General, the number of soldiers in the coalition army has dropped significantly these days. According to these prisoners, there are more and more deserters in the army, and the commanders of Yan, Liang, and Zhao are also on guard against each other, and they are unwilling to send their own soldiers to strike the front. , It seems that, as His Highness said, these three kings are in harmony, but there are many contradictions within, and they are also guarding against each other. Lu Fei said.

Niu Ben nodded and said, It's just that it's not yet time for a counterattack. The news of Yongzhou's capture of Bingzhou hasn't come yet. As soon as the news arrives, it's time to go out of the city to fight.

Lu Fei scratched his head. He had long wanted to go out of the city to annihilate the three-king coalition, but Niu Ben was obviously much more stable. Now that the general said this, he had to nod his head.
