"The snow has stopped!"
Fang Ziyu, who was sleeping on the thick stack of memorials in Changle Palace, was awakened by the eunuch's shrill voice.
She struggled to open her hazy eyes and looked in the direction of the door.
She had a very bad life these days. All the territories that belonged to Great Zhou had already surrendered to Chen Country. In the eight continents of Great Xia, apart from the last Yan Province, the other seven continents also began to submit to Chen Country one after another. Of course, this was not Fang Ziyu's militaristic feat, but a common decision made by the people everywhere and the local rulers under the impetus of the desire to survive after the grain was depleted.
Just a few days ago, the Great Xia Yan Continent, which was also struggling to support itself, had finally exhausted all its grain reserves. Without sufficient military resources, Great Xia was forced to ask for help from Chen Country. The apostle Nangong Jing, who was in charge of heading to Jinling of Chen Country, was already on his way. Obviously, the submission of the Great Xia Imperial Court was imminent. Fang Ziyu had probably never expected that after the collapse of the Great Chu Dynasty, the various heroic powers had fought over each other for two hundred years, and had tried their best to fulfill their long-cherished wish of reunification in her hands.
But in reality, Fang Ziyu did not have much of an impression of this matter. Even if it was possible, she did not wish to take over the mess of Zhou and Xia. Of course, it would be best if not even Chen. She had been busy for too long, there were always endless memorials on her desk, and there were always endless matters to be dealt with by her side. Every day she needed to dispatch all parties to solve the problems everywhere with the best strategy. Such a busy month and endless days and nights made her half-step Immortal Realm body somewhat unable to hold on, and she unconsciously fell asleep in the middle of the night yesterday.
For the first time in a month, Fang Ziyu, who had tasted a good sleep, was still a little unsatisfied, but the moment she raised her head, the door of the main hall of Changle Palace was pushed open. Fang Ziyu's pupils suddenly widened, as if he had seen the most inconceivable scene in the world, and he was stunned.
Naturally, what surprised her was not the reckless eunuch with a happy expression, nor was it the other party's rash act of barging into her palace. Instead, the warm spring light that followed when the palace door was pushed open was like a blue sky and white clouds that had separated from each other for a long time.
"Your Highness, the snow has stopped!"
The eunuch knelt down in front of Fang Ziyu and repeated what he said when he woke Fang Ziyu up. Of course, he didn't disturb his master's fear at all, because even the lowliest eunuchs in the palace knew that in this world, no one would be unhappy because of this news.
It was already the thirteenth day of the first month, and a full month had passed since the calamity. However, even though spring had already begun, the snow that had covered all the territories of the three kingdoms since the beginning of winter did not stop in the slightest. If this continued for a few more days, then it would be the season of spring plowing. At that time, the grain reserves of the Imperial Court would allow the people to survive until the autumn. However, they missed the spring plowing. Without the autumn harvest, how would they spend the next year?
For the majority of the people in this world, hardship would at most make them complain more, but as long as there was still hope, they could grind their teeth and swallow the bitterness in front of them. But if there was no hope, who would dare guarantee that the fragile order in this world would be maintained?
At this moment, the heavy snow that stopped and the sunlight that entered Fang Ziyu's pupils through the palace gate of Changle Palace were the hopes in the hearts of the common people, as well as the hopes that supported this world to drag its broken body forward.
"Congratulations, Congratulations, Consort. It is your goodwill that touched the heavens. Li Min can be expected, and the country can be restored!!!"
The eunuch clearly understood what the scattered snow meant to Fang Ziyu and the entire world. At that time, he spoke loudly again. His tone was high and his expression was quite moved. Over the past few days, he had been following Fang Ziyu and witnessed how Fang Ziyu worked day and night for the people of Chen and Xia Zhou. He thought that the heavens had truly blessed him and ended this harsh winter, giving life to the people of the world. Therefore, these words were absolutely not flattering or flattering. Instead, they were sincere words from the bottom of his heart.
Most of the palace maids and guards outside the palace gates also had such thoughts. At that time, they all knelt down outside the palace gates and shouted loudly.
"Congratulations, Congratulations, Consort. It is your goodwill that touched the heavens. Li Min can be expected, and the country can be restored!!!"
For a moment, this voice echoed throughout the entire palace, lingering on the palace gates of Changle Palace for a long time without stopping.
...
As if to prove this point, a guard quickly walked into the palace and knelt outside the palace gates. He said loudly, "Your Highness, the envoys of Great Xia have arrived. They brought the royal watch of Great Xia and are willing to serve the Chen Kingdom as their master. I only ask Your Highness to quickly divert grain to save the people of Great Xia!"
This matter was not Xin Mi. A few days ago, an advance messenger came to inform him of this matter. With Fang Ziyu's temperament and Chen Country's current sufficient grain, he had already asked the officials in charge of managing the grain to prepare the grain that Great Xia needed. As long as the envoy worked together, he could bring it away. However, this matter, which had already become a foregone conclusion, had now fallen into the ears of the officials beside him and changed their appearance.
Just imagine, this heavy snow had fallen for several months, but there was no intention of stopping at all. Why did it happen to stop after Great Xia handed over the documents of submission? Didn't this imply that the people of the world, Xia, Zhou, and Chen, had been separated for hundreds of years. At this moment, their auras had been exhausted, and they had all fallen under Fang Ziyu's command before the calamity ended? Wasn't Fang Ziyu the son of the heavens?
Thinking of this, the faces of the officials all changed. At that time, the eunuch in the lead seemed to have thought of something. He subconsciously reached out and touched his bosom. There was a letter left behind, a letter Chen Xuanji had left for him. He vaguely realized that it was time to open the letter.
...
Xia Chao surrendered. Such a thing was naturally a major matter. Even if Fang Ziyu did not care about it, whether it was due to etiquette or rules, such a thing required the presence of civil and military officials in the Imperial Court.
However, the Emperor of the Chen Kingdom had disappeared long ago when the calamity occurred, so the dragon chair in the court was empty. Only Fang Ziyu, who wore a phoenix crown, was sitting on the side. Only after accepting the memorials and conferring the title of Grand Xia Emperor as the Xia King and classifying Yan Province as his territory did he finally understand this matter.
After Nangong Jing, the envoy, took over the document that Fang Ziyu had issued and thanked him, he had already finished his work today. Fang Ziyu also yawned. She decided to temporarily let go of the endless tasks at hand. She would find time to walk around the palace for a while and then find the eunuch. She must ask him about Chen Xuanji's whereabouts. After all, at this moment, the heavy snow had stopped. Spring had already appeared, and the grain in her hands was enough to support the surviving people until the autumn harvest. The bet between her and Chen Xuanji had finally come to an end.
Fang Ziyu wanted to escape quickly and try to find traces of everyone. These past few days, she had also sent people to investigate. She had obtained very little information about what had happened in the Great Abyss Mountain that day, but there were still traces of it. The few survivors around the Great Abyss Mountain had mentioned that they had seen a huge mountain peak that could not be found in the sky, but it quickly disappeared. Fang Ziyu realized that the rumoured 100,000 mountains of that thing were there at regular intervals. Naturally, it was impossible for such a large object to disappear out of thin air, and it was even impossible for it to be nowhere to be found since then. The only place where the hundred thousand mountains could hide was in the west of Qingzhou, where the hundred thousand mountains used to be.
However, before, she had to take care of the Chen Kingdom and the people who had submitted from all over. Now, she could finally let go of these worries and had the opportunity to go to the west of the Azure Province to search for 100,000 mountains and traces of the possible survival of the people.
However, there seemed to be something insisting on going against Fang Ziyu. Just as she wanted to announce her retreat, the little eunuch who had been following Chen Xuanji suddenly appeared. Along with his iconic spy voice, "The decree is here!"
At that time, it was unknown if it was Fang Ziyu. Apart from Great Xia's envoy Nangong Jing, everyone else was stunned.
Chen Xuanji's mysterious disappearance had initially frightened the civil and military officials of the Chen Kingdom. There were even some people who suspected Fang Ziyu, so much so that they organized people to search for Chen Xuanji. However, under the calamity of the natural disaster, everyone was extremely busy. Adding on Fang Ziyu's miraculous handling strategy, everyone gradually let go of this matter. After all, compared to the emperor, national peace and security seemed to be more important. Of course, there might be a small group of people who still had misgivings, but in the environment where everyone from officials to civilians gradually loved Fang Ziyu, this kind of voice would often be drowned out by the crowd's mountain shouts and tsunami-like surroundings.
At this moment, the eunuch brought the imperial edict, and everyone remembered that there was also an Emperor in the Chen Kingdom.
After a brief moment of surprise, Fang Ziyu thought to himself that this fellow had finally appeared. However, although she was somewhat dissatisfied, she still took the lead to kneel down and shouted, "This concubine respectfully welcomes the imperial edict."
The civil and military officials below the stage also came to their senses and knelt down one after another.
The little eunuch's gaze swept across everyone before his brows sank solemnly. Only then did he say, "The sun bears its name and the moon bears its god."
"I inherited the throne for two years, ask oneself virtue is not enough to govern the country, strategy is not enough to reassure the people. But the heavens do not stop me, Great Chen. After I was fortunate enough to marry Fang Ziyu, I believe that all of you have already reached a consensus on this woman's virtue. I naturally do not need to say anything further. And most importantly, I, Su Tongqi, observe this child, carry the Dragon Form, the sun and moon above my head, is a person who is destined to return from heaven. So think for a long time, finally decided to draw up this decree, from now on, for the world, for the brilliant heavenly dao, dhyana is located behind my Fang Ziyu. Ever since then, the world has been unified for generations to come. "
...
Deer horn plain, Ya Qishan mountain peak.
The black-robed, handsome man stood there and looked up at the horizon.
It was evening and dusk, and something was surging in the dim horizon, coming from all parts of the world, circling the horizon, and then all the way to the eastern horizon. A gigantic divine dragon form had already condensed there, and with the influx of this aura, the aura surging around the divine dragon form became even more formidable.
"Condensing the Dragon Form with the will of all living beings and gathering luck. I didn't think of such a scheme." The handsome man took a deep look at the Dao Dragon Form before withdrawing his gaze. Then, he turned to look behind him and said,
Behind him stood several figures. There were white-browed, black-haired youths, young men with elegant faces but long sabers on their backs, Confucian scholars who sat in wheelchairs with eyes like stagnant water, and men who had pendants carved on their hard waist like tigers and wolves. Upon hearing this, the white-browed, black-haired youth smiled faintly and said, "The Gods of the Outer World will not give up after all. When they return, it will definitely be the pressure of the army. Naturally, we must be fully prepared to mobilize all the power we can muster."
The white-browed, black-haired youth said this. The three people beside him all had calm expressions, and none of them commented on his words at all.
When the handsome man in the lead heard this, he sized up the white-browed and black-haired youth. His gaze was strange, as if he was considering something. It was undeniable that under the gaze of the other party, the youth's entire body was somewhat indescribable and uncomfortable, but he did not want to reveal his situation in front of the man. Only after observing the situation for more than ten breaths did the handsome man withdraw his gaze.
At that moment, the young man felt as if he had been granted an amnesty, but his forehead was unconsciously covered in dense sweat.
"That's right." The handsome man's voice sounded at that moment. "Although they are just stupid cattle and sheep, since they are doomed to perish, we must make the most of them. There is more or less something we can do for them, right?"
A warm smile appeared on the man's face like the spring breeze, but the meaning behind his words made the young man feel as if he had fallen into an ice purgatory. He hurriedly lowered his head and didn't dare to look at the man, fearing that the slightest change in emotion on his face would be captured by the man, so as to penetrate the true thoughts in his heart. The only thing that surprised him was that the three people beside him seemed to completely agree with the logic of the man, and they did not show the slightest bit of dissatisfaction or surprise at this.
After the man finished speaking, the atmosphere fell into silence. For the young man, this silence undoubtedly increased the burden on his heart. As more and more sweat accumulated on his lowered head, a light footstep came from behind him.
A figure dressed in a long green robe slowly walked to the front of the crowd. He smiled and bowed to the crowd one by one. Then, he looked at the handsome man and whispered, "King, you're awake."
