Queen Flower

Liu Chang had already received a letter from Murong Xiling, ready to lead the army to surrender.

Since his defeat that day, his morale has been very low, but now many people don't understand if he surrenders without a fight.

"His Royal Highness, why should we surrender without a fight? I'm afraid the soldiers will not accept it."

Liu Chang glanced at him, "Why do we fight?"

"Naturally, it is to protect our territory and not let the people suffer," the general replied.

"Defending the territory is to protect the people, but now that the country is respected in the south and the old system of respecting the country is restored, do you think this will harm the interests of the people?" Liu Chang asked him.

The general hesitated for a moment, "If that's the case, then it's a good thing. However, His Highness believes in Murong Xiling so much, their Murong family has no credibility."

"Of course I don't believe in the Murong Clan, but I do believe in General Lan." Liu Chang smiled, "So I made harsh conditions, and they agreed."

"Your Highness is saying..." The general hesitated.

"Yes, I will read out our conditions and Murong Xiling's reply in public. Soon, everyone in the Zun Kingdom will know about this decision. You have no joke, he has no room to go back, otherwise everyone will still revolt." Liu Chang replied calmly "The original intention of our uprising that day was to protect the public, so unnecessary wars cannot start now."

He has always been bored with rules and has eccentricities. In fact, he is already very tired of being this King Jing, and respecting the country should have a new look.

Liu Chang led the army to surrender, and Jiang Lan personally greeted him.

When Jiang Lan was standing in front of everyone, dressed in an ordinary white shirt with blue silk and drooping shoulders, all the soldiers from Jingdi looked straight. Is this the female general who defeated King Jing that day? The current queen? It's really nice, no wonder King Jing had to make her a queen before agreeing to surrender, and now I understand.

Liu Chang was the first to kneel and give a big salute, "I see your Majesty." The soldiers behind him saw this. Also hula la knelt down.

Jiang Lan's heart skipped a beat, looking at the drooping black heads and bent backs, he finally realized that he had been pushed into a very hellish position. She really couldn't bear such a big gift, it was like being pricked by a needle. She didn't wait for Xia Henqiu to wink her, and immediately stepped forward and attached her lower body to help Liu Chang up.

A white jade-like hand took his arm, and even unknowingly, he used his internal strength to forcibly pull him up.

"You don't have to do this big gift, all the soldiers and soldiers will come quickly." Jiang Lan said very sincerely, in her heart, she always felt that she was an acting queen. And she is not an ancient person after all, it is very awkward for others to give her such a kneeling ceremony, and it is physiologically disgusting.

Liu Chang glanced at the slightly tough hand on his arm. With a slight smile, this newly appointed queen is really interesting.

Xiao Yan stretched out his hand and pulled Jiang Lan, "Your Majesty..." He couldn't get used to it for a while, and almost called him Aman.

Jiang Lan waved his hand. She didn't care about her momentary gaffe, she needed time to get used to it, even hearing the words of His Majesty in her ears, she was very sympathetic.

After some detailed discussion, Jiang Lan ordered the teachers to return to the DPRK. Liu Chang led a 200,000-strong army to Huicheng with her, and the remaining 100,000 soldiers were deployed at the border.

The troops are now very plentiful. When the 300,000 army returned from the original route, they suddenly turned to Xiancheng.

King Xian is now the only outlier in the south of the country, since now the south is the ruler. First of all, it should be the unity of ideology, and he cannot allow him to engage in one country, two systems. This is not only a condition for Liu Chang's completion, but also to prevent some people's fluke.

When they arrived at Xiancheng, they realized that King Xian had already received the news. Kuibugai went to Murong Jian because he was in a hurry. In order to hide the fact that only ten thousand people followed him, most of the troops stayed where they were and were directly taken over by Jiang Lan, but the troops who had donated the land could not be immediately pulled out to fight, they had to be integrated. She ordered Ma Zheng to lead a 30,000-strong army to stay, absorb the combat power, the sooner the better, and be ready to go to the north at any time.

When Jiang Lan returned to Huicheng, the city gate was wide open. From a distance, there were many people at the gate of the city, with great momentum and flags flying. A group of Eredivisie soldiers lined up to fight. In front of the soldiers was a line of ministers, and there were many more behind them. The people, Murong Xiling, Chu Qingcheng and Shangguanhong led the crowd to greet her.

The rumbling hooves are still in my ears, and the cheers have been heard one after another, resounding through the sky, "Long live the queen!" "Long live the queen!" In order to respect the south of the country, the south will return to the old practice of respecting the country from now on, and the basic rights and interests of the people will be effectively protected.

When Jiang Lan approached, these people stopped cheering and knelt on the ground in unison, except for the sound of clothes rubbing against each other, there was no other movement.

"Your Majesty." Murong Xiling knelt at the front in a white shirt, Chu Qingcheng in red and Shangguan Honglue in red, their palms were flat on the ground, their foreheads were on the ground, their backs were curved, pious and solemn.

The people behind them, whether they are soldiers or commoners, are all like this, with sincerity and sincerity.

Jiang Lan immediately handed the bright silver spear to Xiao Yan, quickly jumped off the horse, and went straight to them. The master knelt three times and nine times for her. This is to make her be struck by lightning. She has already deceived her master and destroyed her ancestors. Although she does not have a very orthodox concept of master and apprentice, as a modern person, who would let her teacher kneel in front of yourself.

"Master, please get up." She reached out and pulled him up.

Murong Xiling didn't get up. He raised his head to look at her with a serious face, and reminded softly, "You should say that the ministers are flat."

Jiang Lan glanced at it and saw that all the people were still holding their heads on the ground, quietly waiting for her order. As long as she didn't speak, they would not be able to kneel for a long time.

If she didn't have a clear feeling when she led the army abroad, she has only deeply felt the difference between being a general and being a queen. When she was General Lan, no matter how much everyone liked her, they just surrounded her and looked at her, and it was very lively around her. But now, there are so many people in the dark, but it is silent and awe-inspiring, no noise, no impulse, no loving eyes, only the bent back and the pious back of the head. If it was a feeling in the past, it is now a kind of faith, relegating myself to the dust, and offering all my life and loyalty willingly.

Jiang Lan felt that his back began to sweat, and there was a vague and unpleasant feeling. This is no child's play, she is really a queen now and will be carrying their future.

"All the ministers are flat." She looked around and said loudly, her voice was calm but clear and powerful, and it was loud.

A shallow smile appeared on Murong Xiling's face, "Thank you, Your Majesty." He slowly got up, and the people behind him also stood up one after another, looking solemn.

Jiang Lan looked at Chu Qingcheng on his side, and saw that his face was serious and serious, and the corners of his mouth were tightly pursed. It's just that the phoenix's eyes were full of smiles, and even with a hint of banter, it disappeared in a flash.

Jiang Lan's heart suddenly relaxed. Really, why did she suddenly become trembling, now it's no different from before, isn't she just acting in front of people? She won't always occupy this seat, and what people worship is actually kingship. It's not necessarily her. To be honest, many people worship their butts, not their heads. This is a normal thing in modern society, and she is stupid again. So she can do whatever she wants, but she can't be fooled.

Jiang Lan smiled and turned on his horse. With a wave of his hand, "Go back to the city."

Along the road, the people of Huicheng greeted each other, and the voice of Long Live the Queen could not be heard, but Jiang Lan's mood had returned to calm.

She entered the palace directly, and the accompanying army had already arranged a place to go. Don't worry about her.

The group entered the study room to discuss relevant matters, and Jiang Lan took the top seat for the first time. After sitting upright, he glanced down, and when he saw that they were all acquaintances, he immediately returned to his true appearance.

"What's going on with Murong Jian in the north?" She asked without talking nonsense.

Shangguanhong shook his head and said, "Keep the status quo, the army has been stationed on the border, neither advancing nor retreating, General Yan has been standing by, so don't worry, Your Majesty."

Jiang Lan pondered for a moment, "Sooner or later we will fight with Murong Jian. It is inevitable. Now that the South is in power, there is no need to worry about the future. All the energy should be on the army."

She looked at everyone seriously, "I have an idea. Since I am sitting in this seat now, I might as well clarify each person's responsibilities."

She pointed to Liu Chang and said, "Liu Chang and Yan Zhan at the border are both generals. You command the army in Jingdi, and Yan Zhan controls the rest." A brave general and a Confucian general can also cooperate with each other to fight.

Liu Chang complied.

Jiang Lan said to Xiao Yan again, "You are wronged. I will give you all the city defenses and 100,000 troops of Huicheng. In addition to ensuring the safety of the palace, you must also ensure the safety of the imperial city." That is to say , Xiao Yan is not only her personal bodyguard, but also the leader of the Royal Forest Army. As a king, he must retain a personal guard to deal with emergencies.

Xiao Yan nodded.

"You two go to work first, you will fight someday." The two left the table.

"Xia Henqiu and Shangguanhong were originally the descendants of the prime ministers of the previous dynasty, so now you continue the glory of your mother's family and continue to serve as the left and right prime ministers." The arrangement of the chief prime minister of one man and one woman can take into account the interests of all parties.

Jiang Lan turned his head again and said to Chu Qingcheng: "All financial matters are left to you. During the war, I will send someone to assist you. If there is no war, I will count on you to revitalize the country's economy." These are the Minister of Finance and the Minister of Commerce. Well, it couldn't be more suitable for him.

It really was the best use of it, and the three of them knelt down to give the order.

Only Murong Xiling stood on the side, and Jiang Lan did not assign him a post.

This is natural. Murong Xiling is only temporarily leaving the throne. Jiang Lan has made up his mind to return the throne to him after the reunification of the Zun Kingdom, so these practical things cannot be carried on him now, so as not to have more problems in the future. Come on, it takes time to develop a competent person, so start training now.

But what should the master do? Jiang Lan really can't think of it for a while. It's best to have an idle job. When she gets out, it won't affect the overall situation at all. At the same time, she must have a noble name so that she can be in a righteous position of Zen.

Jiang Lan thought hard, she had an idea, and without thinking about it, she blurted out, "I still lack a queen, why don't the master be my queen?" Isn't the most noble job the emperor's wife, and can always be Being within the scope of imperial power is very beneficial to her handover work, and the team under her can easily accept it in its entirety.

The idea was good, Jiang Lan looked at everyone excitedly, and saw that the four of them were silent, staring straight at her, and immediately woke up from her fantasy. This is the country of women, and a man's reputation is very important. She He hurriedly changed his words, "Then..."

Before he could finish speaking, Murong Xiling knelt down on his knees, bowed his head, and said, "I will obey the order, I will thank you." He raised his head, his eyes had a burning meaning, as if suddenly a long-held fireworks had been lit. Brilliant.

Jiang Lan was stunned, and suddenly felt that her proposal was bloody. She waved her hand and said, "I'm joking, joking, joking, this is not a discussion, don't take it seriously, don't take it seriously."

Shangguanhong said, "You have no joke, how can you go against the imperial decree from your Majesty's own mouth? I congratulate Your Highness Queen." She turned to salute Murong Xiling, and was very happy for him. What did Jiang Lan think, now that the status is ironclad and can't run away.

Xia Henqiu hesitated, but after a while, he returned to his senses, "Congratulations, Your Highness."

Chu Qingcheng's phoenix eyes picked it up, but did not speak.

Jiang Lan was so anxious to jump, she didn't mean that, really didn't mean it.

It's not good to be a queen, and people are not allowed to talk nonsense. How can she control her own nonsense in the future.
