However, after eleven days, the ruler of the State of Song changed.
The former Lord of Shu City, Tan Xingye, became the new Emperor of Song and changed the country's name to Tai'an.
It is said that everyone has his own destiny. You should know that Qin Xingye spent most of the past ten days on the road.
Qin Xingye exhausted three horses to death while rushing from the border city of Shu to Kyoto. Finally, he seized the best opportunity before other city lords had time to get the news or start to react.
When the princes under them were unable to support the Song Dynasty, on one side was the emperor who was poisoned and unconscious, and on the other side was the lord of Shu City who was supported by the people and had the world in his heart. The ministers quickly made the most favorable choice.
The young prime minister, who had long since surrendered to Qin Xingye, was the most brilliant chess piece deployed by Qin Xingye. He won the hearts of a large number of ministers for him at this time, and quickly cleared out the spies of other princes, leaving him a Kyoto without any worries.
The entire Song State was stabilized before it had time to fall into chaos.
When other princes and nobles reacted and began to covet the throne, the people were extremely happy that the Lord of Shu City had become the Emperor of Song. Even the remote border towns were decorated with lights and lanterns everywhere. This was what the people wanted.
When the kings and princes saw this, even though they felt a little uncomfortable, they had to submit.
Of course, some people think that Qin Xingye was just too lucky and was just one step ahead of everyone else.
But sometimes luck is also a kind of strength and a symbol of destiny.
Even Qin Xingye's master, the old tutor with many students all over the world, was somewhat amazed at his disciple's good luck.
The old tutor looked into the sky and said with emotion, "With the Prime Minister inside and Song and Ming outside, the talents in the world seem to be particularly fond of Your Majesty. I just wonder if I can see the world truly unified in my lifetime?"
When facing his mentor, Qin Xingye did not have the slightest imperial airs. He was even slightly behind the old tutor.
Just thinking about those letters from Song Ming, Qin Xingye's face showed a confident light, and he said in a domineering tone: "I believe in Song Ming's ability, and this day will not keep us waiting for long."
If there is no peace between the two countries, then the two countries will be turned into one country. He will personally create a peaceful and prosperous era and make the Tai'an Year the best year in history.
"Song Ming is indeed capable," the old tutor looked at him sideways and suggested, "But Your Majesty, it's time to reward Song Ming. Young people should have achievements before they will be more willing to continue to serve Your Majesty. By the way, I heard that he has not yet married. The young ladies of the official families in the capital..."
Qin Xingye listened to his master's words and nodded thoughtfully.
His ministers help him solve his problems, and he should also consider his ministers.
It’s time to find a wife for Song Ming, otherwise he will always be thinking about his dead cousin, which is not a good thing!
However, these young ladies in Kyoto seem to be cast in the same mold. They are virtuous, but too dignified and boring. I'm afraid they are not suitable for someone as interesting as Song Ming. He needs to think about it carefully.
*
Mingyue didn't know that Qin Xingye was secretly trying to find a wife for her.
She looked at Jiang Yunqi, who was swinging a big hammer and hitting one bandit at a time, with dark eyes, and clenched her back teeth tightly.
Even Mingyue had not expected that he would meet Jiang Yunqi on the battlefield during this guerrilla warfare. His innate supernatural power was indeed not fake. The seemingly heavy iron hammer was wielded with great power in his hand, making it impossible for the bandits to get close to him. Once they were hit by the iron hammer, they could never get up again.
In just a short while, more than a dozen bandits were beaten to the ground by Jiang Yunqi, and then killed by the Wu soldiers next to them. The other bandits were terrified of Jiang Yunqi, but at the same time they wanted to avenge their dead brothers.
But when they rushed forward, they gave away their lives in vain.
They can't drag it on any longer. Guerrilla warfare is a battle of time and information asymmetry. Once Wu's reinforcements arrive, none of them will be able to escape.
Mingyue looked at Jiang Yunqi with dark eyes, and finally blew the whistle hanging around her neck, which meant retreat.
After hearing the whistle, the bandits evacuated in the original directions without any hesitation.
This was also the point that Mingyue emphasized when she trained them, that is, on the battlefield, as long as they were still breathing, they must unconditionally obey orders from above.
That's why even though these bandits hated Jiang Yunqi to the core and wanted to kill him to avenge their brothers, they still left without thinking after hearing the whistle.
Because at this moment they are soldiers.
When Mingyue and his group returned to their own territory, the eyes of these bandits were red, and they still gritted their teeth in hatred when they mentioned the man wielding the big hammer.
This was the first time that they had lost so many brothers. They were brothers who had been through life and death with them and who could trust each other.
Mingyue's face was also very ugly. You know, these bandits were trained by her personally, and each of them was a guy she could call out by name. How could she feel at ease when she saw them being killed one by one
But she held back and didn't get angry. She just let the bandits vent for a while and then sent them away.
It was Mingyue's negligence that she asked someone to find Wan Yu at this time. She should have used the chess pieces secretly, otherwise she would lose troops in vain.
Wan Yu had learned about what happened tonight before he came here. After all, Jiang Yunqi was highly praised by the new commander and was even appointed as a centurion. This matter had already spread throughout the army.
That's why as soon as he saw Mingyue, Wan Yu immediately knelt on the ground, his face showing an unconcealable blue-gray color due to nervousness and guilt.
He said almost helplessly, "General Xu is really wary of General Li's old subordinates like me. He has been leaving us aside these days and not letting us participate in military affairs. I didn't even hear a word about Jiang Yunqi and others leaving the camp tonight, and I didn't have time to warn you. Please forgive me."
Mingyue didn't expect this to happen, so naturally she couldn't blame Wanyu.
She thought for a moment and whispered, "You can't be blamed for this, but I have an idea. Find someone to take the initiative to show goodwill to Jiang Yunqi. It would be best if you could become his confidant or even his younger brother. Wait..."
Wan Yu was slightly stunned. In fact, he couldn't understand why Mr. Song always paid attention to Jiang Yunqi.
However, when he saw Mingyue's solemn face, Wan Yu nodded in agreement.
He knew that Mr. Song was highly regarded by the city lord, oh no, His Majesty, and it was always right to listen to Mr. Song.
