“Your Majesty, it’s possible,” Prime Minister Xian finally said.Thinking about various things in a short period of time, Prime Minister Xian came to the conclusion that this city would be quite good. But they would have to develop it properly for it to become a proper capital city.
With that in thought, Prime Minister Xian glanced in Prime Minister Lan’s direction.
He knew very well that the one who will manage this matter would be Prime Minister Lan, so he was waiting for Prime Minister Lan’s decision.
“Your Majesty, Fei Yang Kingdom is not rich, but there’s still enough resources left.” Prime Minister Lan looked at Emperor Yang Zhou carefully. “As long as the next war didn’t consume more resources and we can enter the recovery period, it should be fine.”
There was still one more kingdom left.
Emperor Yang Zhou smiled when he heard Prime Minister Lan’s words. “In that case, prepare to depart to this city. Before that, tell Great General Wei to repair the wall and expand the city. Fei Yang Kingdom’s Capital City couldn’t be too shabby.”
“Yes, Your Majesty!”
…
<Fei Yang Kingdom’s Capital City, Nan Family Residence>
Old Master Nan received the news of Fei Yang Kingdom’s victory and the details of the last battle almost at the same time as Emperor Yang Zhou. While he was no longer active in doing anything, there were still more than enough people under him who will tell him if there was anything that happened outside.
Besides, Nan Hua and Nan Luo could send him messages through their own people and let Hou Lin knew about it.
“The war is over now?” Old Master Nan’s eyes lit up.
“Yes, Old Master,” Hou Lin replied. “Fan Yi Kingdom’s capital city is now in the hands of Fei Yang Kingdom. However, it’s estimated that the repair would take quite some time.”
Old Master Nan’s lips twitched. Thinking that these generals destroyed the entire city’s wall, Old Master Nan could imagine that the repair price would simply shook through the ceiling.
For such a big city, the cost of repairing the city wall would be high.
“Moreover, His Majesty wants to move the Capital City to that city, so expansion is inevitable,” Hou Lin added.
“Oh?” Old Master Nan arched his eyebrows.
He felt that the current Fei Yang Kingdom’s Capital City was actually fine.
There was river nearby and there were also many other cities developing rapidly. But Emperor Yang Zhou didn’t care about this.
He cared more about the northern tribe.
“What a person who’s fixated with war.” Old Master Nan chuckled, but there was not even any trace of dissatisfaction nor disapproval from his tone.
It was clear that he knew this was a necessary move from Emperor Yang Zhou.
If there was no threat for Fei Yang Kingdom from the north, there was no need to do this kind of thing. Why would one abandon a perfectly developing city that was getting better and
better to a city that was still in ruins.
Uh wrong, the city itself is fine.
Just the wall required repairing.
Moreover, if Emperor Yang Zhou wanted to move there, they had to rebuild an Imperial Palace suitable for his identity. That building would definitely take a long time.
Thinking about his granddaughter who was there, Old Master Nan sighed deeply. He could guess that Nan Hua should be staying there for a longer period of time and it was impossible for him to see his granddaughter anytime soon.
And here Old Master Nan wished that he could reunite with his granddaughter soon.
Old Master Nan sighed deeply.
“Did Hua’er said anything about returning?”
“Old Master, Young Miss said that she’ll stay there to help Young Master Long with the work. Afterwards, she wants to help her brother to pay a visit to the Wei Family.”
“Hmm?” Old Master Nan immediately sat up straight. He had just remembered that Nan Luo was still working hard to get the approval of Great General Wei.
That old general wouldn’t want to hand over his daughter just to anyone.
Now that Nan Hua said this, it meant that Nan Luo has gotten Great General Wei’s approval.
“Hahaha, my grandson is going to get married soon.” Old Master Nan laughed out loud. He was happy that Nan Luo is going to settle down soon.
Of course, Old Master Nan knew that Nan Luo was unlikely to return to Fei Yang Kingdom’s Capital City anytime soon. He might even roam on the battlefield longer, become a general, and served Fei Yang Kingdom for a period of time.
In any case, Nan Luo is still young and Old Master Nan didn’t care too much about what Nan Luo was planning to do in his life.
“Give me the list of my things. I want to prepare the betrothal gifts for Nan Luo,” Old Master Nan gave the order directly.
He had already gave a lot of things during Nan Hua’s marriage. Now that it was Nan Luo’s turn, Old Master Nan still has plenty of things.
The rest of the things would be for his own retirement.
Anyway, Old Master Nan didn’t think much of them and it would be more than enough for him
to live comfortably for a long period of time.
“Yes, Old Master.”
With that, Hou Lin directly left.
Old Master Nan sat on his seat and looked into the distance.
Now that the war with Fan Yi Kingdom was over, he wondered how those people from Qi Xi Kingdom would react.
If this was the past, Qi Xi Kingdom would never be willing to accept this.
Because they used to be a powerful kingdom with the largest territory and also expanded
rapidly, taking over other kingdom’s territory for themselves.
Their rapid development had made many people feared Qi Xi Kingdom.
That was when the largest coalition army was made.
And through that war, Qi Xi Kingdom was beaten up to the point that their remaining territory was nothing more than a few pitiful cities.
