Chapter 136 – Can’t Bear to Leave (2)

“What?” In confusion, Zhao Yunqin raised her head and looked at him with a dangerous stare through her sleeves, but she only heard him laugh as he spoke.

“Because I will not leave, so there is no need for grandmother to be sad.”

After a moment of muddle-headedness, Zhao Yunqin soon returned to normal.

“Foolish child, what nonsense are you saying? Now that someone has violated our country’s might, as the Son of Heaven, you should go forward and suppress them–take back our lost territory! How can you retreat before the battle has even begun!?”

With these last words, the empress dowager’s voice rose a little, causing the dejected officials nearby to look over.

Mo Linyuan merely smiled in reply, refusing to speak.

During this tense atmosphere, a horse suddenly galloped from over the border. From afar, everyone could hear the deep and happy voice of the person riding atop the horse!

“Reporting! The Yue Country’s Emperor was overjoyed when he heard that His Majesty had ascended the throne. He decided to retreat back to the city and was even willing to present a generous gift to congratulate His Majesty!”

He announced again and again, letting all the commoners, officials and soldiers hear his words clearly. They were more than overjoyed!

From the looks of it–there was no need to fight?

The empress dowager’s fake mournful facade froze as she listened to the war report being repeatedly shouted. Then, she felt a bone-piercing cold wind, as if someone had just slapped her silly. She immediately felt the onslaught of dizziness as she stood rooted to her spot in shock.

Without waiting for her to say anything, the originally sorrowful faces of the ministers brightened, and they excitedly came over towards Mo Linyuan.

“His Majesty is indeed the genuine Son of Heaven! As soon as he ascended the throne, he resolved a war without the need for even a single soldier!”

“That’s right, that’s right! Since we can already reclaim back the lost territories, there’s no need to expend our resources. His Majesty’s achievement is comparable to that of the Sacred Ancients!”

“Indeed! His Majesty’s achievement is tumultuous that the entire Yue country would be terrified just by hearing this news. They could only offer up their treasures–how would they dare contend against you?!”

They talked until the empress dowager was pale and tottering in the background.

And truly setting things in stone, the Imperial Tutor led the way for the officials and kneeled down reverently in front of Mo Linyuan.

“His Majesty obtaining the approval of the heavens and bringing good fortune to this country can only be an incoming auspicious prosperity of the Mo Country! For the wealth of the common people! These old officials wish that His Majesty will live a long life! Meanwhile strengthening the Mo Country and spread the might of our lands!

As soon as he knelt down, the other ministers quickly followed suit. “May His Majesty’s blessings last forever!”

Some of the ministers that followed the empress dowager’s lead saw this and could only copy the other ministers. Since there were so many commoners watching, it would be tantamount to rebellion if they were not to pledge their loyalty to the new emperor.

The empress dowager was angered to the point her words trembled “You all–”

But without allowing her to finish her sentence, as soon as the commoners below heard the speech of the Imperial Tutor from the city walls, they all quickly knelt down!

“May His Majesty’s blessings last forever!”

As soon as they thought of this little emperor ascending the throne, and they no longer had to fight or pay taxes. The citizens’ enthusiasm soared as they shouted even louder!

“May His Majesty’s blessings last forever and ever!”

The voice covered the sky and whistled through the air, causing everyone’s ears and souls to tremble! Atop the city wall and everything below it–almost everyone was kneeling down. The scene before their eyes was much grander than the simple and crude inauguration ceremony!

The empress dowager didn’t want the world to have any good impression of Mo Linyuan, and he was about to die anyway. But who knew, that in the end, Mo Linyuan’s being would suddenly transform as a fortunate omen for the Mo Country that everyone would recognize and remember!

Thinking of this, she could not catch her breath, almost fainting! However, she was steadily supported by Mo Linyuan as he smiled and said.

“Is grandmother too happy? Like I said, this Emperor does not have to leave!”

“You…” The empress dowager openly glared daggers as she pointed at him. She wanted to speak, but Mo Linyuan held her hand.

“Does Grandma want to talk about the hundred-thousand-man army?” His smile was still as harmless as before, “Once it is in my hands, I will definitely take good care of it. Grandmother should definitely not worry about it.”
