Chapter 191: Becoming the King of Shu

Faced with the attack of four legions, the army sent by the Song Dynasty court was unable to resist at all.

Especially those soldiers, after seeing the high-powered firearms used by the Shu army, basically collapsed at the first touch of the battle.

When facing the attack from the Shu army, the high-ranking officials of the Song Dynasty hid behind the enemy early on.

Shu won every battle, even if two unlucky guys were hit by arrows during the massive rain of arrows launched by the Song army.

However, with the nourishment of spiritual power, basically every one of these soldiers can avoid fatal places.

The injured parts were arms or thighs because they were careless and didn't pay attention.

"Xiao An, we have now occupied two roads in the Song court. When do you plan to officially declare yourself king?"

After receiving the military report, Li Qing and others occupied another one of the Southern Song Dynasty court. Father Li Shaoyang happily found Chen An and said to Chen An with a smile.

"How can I be king when you are here, father? Why don't you be the one to take charge of the throne?"

Chen An looked at his father holding the military newspaper and talking to him excitedly, and immediately responded to his father Li Shaoyang with a smile.

"Ha, are you sure you want me to be king, not to work for you for free? Stop talking nonsense. Think about it honestly. What should we be king of next?"

Li Shaoyang gave his son Chen An a displeased look and said to Chen An with a sneer.

Li Shaoyang didn't want to fall for Chen An's temptation anymore.

Fortunately, Huang Yaoshi came to help when the cabinet and the Grand Council were being formed.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for an honest man like him to establish and run the cabinet and the Grand Council.

Even if it is established, it will take Li Shaoyang a lot of time.

"Well, father, since you don't want to do it, then I'll do it."

Chen An saw that his father Li Shaoyang had made up his mind and there was no way he could go back on his word. He could only helplessly look at his father Li Shaoyang and said disappointedly.

Establishing a unified dynasty has always been Chen An’s belief.

He wanted this dynasty to unify the world and make everyone in the world write Chinese characters like him.

"Are you willing? Then let's go and gather some people to discuss and see. What should we call ourselves kings?"

After hearing what his son Chen An said, Li Shaoyang happily pulled Chen An and prepared to take Chen An to the cabinet to discuss matters related to becoming king.

"Become king? Isn't it too early for us to become king now?"

In the cabinet, when Huang Yaoshi heard what Chen An's father Li Shaoyang said, his eyes flashed and he spoke seriously to Chen An and Li Shaoyang.

"It's getting late. With the power we have now and the blessing of firearms, it won't take much effort to conquer the entire Song Dynasty."

"We should become king as soon as possible. After we have conquered all the places occupied by the Song court, we will need to guard against the Jin Kingdom in the north and the Mongols on the grassland. They are our biggest enemies."

After hearing what Huang Yaoshi said, Chen An shook his head and spoke to Huang Yaoshi seriously.

"In that case, what title should you choose after you become king? What should you choose? Tang? Or Shu?"

Huang Yaoshi looked at Chen An and Li Shaoyang and asked seriously.

"I think Tang is a better name. We can look for the genealogy of the emperors of the Tang Dynasty to prove that our surname Li is the emperor because of the mandate of heaven."

Li Shaoyang thought about it, turned to look at Chen An, and spoke to Chen An seriously.

"Father, I think we should choose a new title instead of sticking to the few words in history."

When Chen An heard what his father Li Shaoyang said, he thought about it, shook his head calmly, and said to his father Li Shaoyang.

"I don't want to talk to you. Just tell me which one you choose. There's no need to beat around the bush here. As soon as I heard you say that, I knew you had already made your choice."

After hearing what Chen An said, Li Shaoyang glared at Chen An unhappily and said to Chen An.

"I meant to choose the word 'Ming' as the king's title."

"Ming, which means brightness, is a word with a good meaning. Are you sure you want to choose this word?"

After hearing what Chen An said, Teacher Huang whispered it twice and asked Chen An with a smile.

"Well, father-in-law, I have decided to choose this word. What do you think?"

Chen An saw a smile on Huang Yaoshi's face and knew that Huang Yaoshi approved of the word, so he said to Huang Yaoshi with a smile.

"Okay, that's a good word. Let's choose this one."

Huang Yaoshi nodded and said to Chen An in approval.

"Dad, what do you think?"

After asking Huang Yaoshi, Chen An turned around and asked his father Li Shaoyang.

"Alas, I still think we should choose Tang. After all, the Tang Dynasty was so powerful, and it also implies that the dynasty we establish can be as prosperous as the Tang Dynasty."

Although Chen An chose a very good word, his father Li Shaoyang still spoke to Chen An with dissatisfaction.

"Father, our founding of a new dynasty is a matter of great honor to our ancestors. If you casually change the name of an ancestor like this, I'm afraid the real ancestor will come to the underworld to settle accounts with you."

Chen An looked at his father who was still struggling with the Tang Dynasty's words. He looked at his disobedient father unhappily and said to Li Shaoyang in a deep voice.

"Uh……"

After hearing Chen An's words, Li Shaoyang immediately froze in place and did not react for a long time.

"How can you talk like that, little brat? Okay, just choose the word you chose. Your father has no objection."

Li Shaoyang gave Chen An a displeased look and said to Chen An.

"Haha, I'm glad you approve of it, father. Then I will prepare for the ceremony of becoming king."

When Chen An saw that his father Li Shaoyang had approved of his choice, he stood up with a smile and said to his father Li Shaoyang.

After saying that, Chen An stood up and walked out the door.

"This kid is usually too lazy to move, but I didn't expect him to be so active when he became king."

Chen An's father Li Shaoyang watched Chen An hurried out to arrange the ceremony of becoming king, and said to Huang Yaoshi beside him with a smile.

"Hey, this is the throne after all. This kid is still young. He can't resist the temptation of being a king."

When Huang Yaoshi heard what Li Shaoyang said, he thought for a moment and spoke to Li Shaoyang calmly.

"Brother Li Bin, Brother Li Qian. I'm going to trouble you two from now on."

Chen An came to the Chengdu City Lord's Mansion, a place specially provided for the officials of the Ministry of Rites to work. He found the two heads of the Ministry of Rites, Li Bin and Li Qian, and said to these two senior brothers with a smile.

"Young Master, please rest assured that becoming king is not that difficult. We will arrange it for you in advance."

Li Bin looked at Chen An and said to him with a smile.

"Brother Li Bin, I am not nervous about becoming king. I would like to ask you two to include the wedding ceremony of the king. I want to marry Rong'er and Nianci at the same time on the day I become king. Is that ok?"

Chen An looked at his two senior brothers seriously and said to them.
