Start Being a Vassal King Today - Chapter 1041

[Chapter 1041 Preparations]

Yanzhou University.

After the daily classes, the students went to the cafeteria to eat in twos and threes.

After the merger of the School of Science and Technology, the School of Government Affairs, and the School of Medicine, Yanzhou University became the first comprehensive university in Dasong.

Different colleges have been established within the university to study in different areas of the university.

As a result, the number of students increased sharply, reaching 26,000.

At this moment, the cafeteria is full of students who are eating.

At this moment, a student suddenly rushed in, stepped on a chair, imitated the tone of a newsboy, and shouted: “Extraordinary, extraordinary, big news, the emperor wants Zen to be located in King Yan, and the Zen Hall will be held soon, King Yan Your Highness is about to become the Great Song Emperor.” After the

student’s voice fell, the originally noisy cafeteria suddenly fell silent, and then heated discussions broke out again.

Many students immediately came to the door of the student who spread the news, and someone said: “Xiao Yan, you are too courageous, you can’t talk nonsense about this matter.”

“If I want to talk nonsense, I will choke to death immediately after eating. At that time, the princes of the court came out of the palace just now, all of them were beaming, that’s what they said.”

“So, it’s true!” A student covered his mouth in surprise.

The other students were silent for a while, and suddenly burst into warm cheers.

News spreads to ten, ten to hundreds, and hundreds to thousands.

As the students in the cafeteria returned, warm cheers rose from everywhere in Yanzhou University.

In the hearts of these students, King Yan is their hero.

It was the King of Yan who quelled the civil strife in Dasong, eradicated the powerful clan in Dasong, defeated Dongying and Beidi successively, took back pieces of lost territory, and even expanded the territory to farther places.

The most important thing is that it was King Guangjian of Yan who established many universities to give them, the children of the Han family, the opportunity to study.

It was still King Yan who created the official examination system so that everyone had the opportunity to enter the imperial court through their own efforts.

Even if they miss the imperial court, they can still use their knowledge to enter research institutes, workshops, and commercial firms to get high monthly salaries.

It can be said that King Yan rescued them from the darkness and gave them a bright future.

Therefore, King Yan is about to ascend the throne, and they are even happier than King Yan himself.

And tonight, doomed to sleepless.

Seeing the madness of the students, the professor at the university in Yanzhou not only didn’t stop them, but smiled knowingly.

If it wasn’t for the image, they might be crazier than the students.

After all, King Yan once taught them personally and was their respected teacher.

Now, they pass on what they have learned from King Yan to generations of students.

At the same time, houses, restaurants, chambers of commerce, shops, government offices, military camps, and newspaper offices were all in a carnival.

Everyone is looking forward to his new emperor – Zhao Xu.

And the next day, the “Yanzhou Daily” officially published the news of the Zen ceremony, and the news occupied the entire page of the first edition, which made people who were still a little hesitant about this matter no longer have any doubts.

Because Mi Wen finalized the layout last night, it was sent by telegram to newspaper offices in various states and counties.

At the same time as the newspaper published in Yancheng, newspapers in other states and counties also published the same content.

The news of the Zen Ceremony spread throughout Dasong within a short period of time.

The carnival naturally spread from Yancheng to other places.

State shepherds and county guards from all states sent telegrams to Yancheng one after another, requesting to participate in the Zen ceremony.

Ma Han, Yang Zhen and other generals sent news to the Ministry of War.

Since there is no urgent war in Dasong at present, these requests are all approved.

Wait until the date of the Zen ceremony is set, and then set an itinerary for them.

In addition to the officials and generals of Dasong, the consulates of Goryeo and the four countries of Japan in Yancheng also sent people back after receiving news.

King Yan’s ascension to the throne, such a big event, they must come to congratulate grandly.

“Your Highness, the auspicious day of the zodiac has been selected, and it will be on April 22.” At the same time that the Zen Throne Hall caused huge waves in the Great Song, various preparations for the Zen Throne Ceremony were already in progress.

Zhu Tuo suddenly became a frequent visitor to the palace, and came to discuss various details with Zhao Xu every day.

“April 22nd, isn’t there still a month left?” Zhao Xu asked.

Zhu Tuo nodded, “Prime Minister Liu said Qin Shan, Guan Tong and other generals are far away overseas, and he wanted to give them time to come back, so I chose 22 days from the two days.” After

a pause, he continued, “Furthermore, Director Chen of the Naval Department said that he would give His Highness a big gift before His Highness ascended the throne. It would not be too early. Wang Chong, the head of the Institute of Research and Development, also said that he would give His Highness a big gift.”

Zhao Xu nodded upon hearing this, “Then It will be on the 22nd.”

He had some calculations in his mind, the gift Chen Shou said must be Dasong’s first ironclad ship, and what Wang Chong said must be Dasong’s first airship.

These two sharp weapons, one to control the sea and the other to control the air, are exactly the war weapons that Da Song urgently needs.

Because comparing the number of warships with the navy of the Western Turks, he must be incomparable.

Then the only thing comparable is quality.

The emergence of ironclad ships will change the rules of naval warfare.

Although the airship is only the first generation, it is driven by the combination of an old-fashioned steam engine and a propeller, which is decades behind the electric Zeppelin airship during World War I.

But even so, the birth of the airship is equivalent to giving Dasong a simple air force.

It is more than enough to use these airships to fight the current Western Turks.

After all, although the war in the south went smoothly, the casualty rate of the army and marines was significantly higher than when they fought with Beidi and the five southeastern countries.

And after seeing the fighting methods of the Dasong army, the generals of the Western Lands will inevitably learn from it and make targeted improvements.

Then the next war will have to make them desperate again.

In the following month, Zhao Xu, Yang Susu, Feng’er and Luan’er were busy with the Zen throne ceremony.

Either Zhao Xu tried on the dragon robe, or Yang Susu tried on the phoenix robe.

Officials from the Ministry of Rituals continued to come and explain various etiquettes to them.

In addition, there is another very important thing, which is to select eunuchs and court ladies.

When they moved from the palace to the Wuji Palace, they had to get along with eunuchs and maids day and night.

It can be said that they control their own basic necessities of life, even their safety.

Naturally, unreliable people cannot be allowed to stay in the Wuji Palace.

However, this incident did not bother Zhao Xu, Xu Ke knew the details of the people in the palace.

After arguing with the roster for a while, the two decided to let the eunuchs and maids from Jinling continue to take care of Zhao Heng and Empress Mi.

Afterwards, the eunuchs and court ladies that Zhao Xu selected for Zhao Heng continued to stay. Their backgrounds were clean and they were also his eyeliner in the palace.

He also selected personal attendants from among the many eunuchs.

This man’s name in the palace is Xiaoguizi.

When he formed the Yanwei, this little Guizi was one of the team members who passed along with Tsui Hark and Chai Wu.

Later, they learned of the miserable experience of this little Guizi.

He was from Yanzhou, and both his parents died at the hands of Beidi.

At that time, Beidi people could also kill him, but Beidi people did not, but viciously eunuched him, so that he would not want to live.

After that, he was sold to a tooth shop, and then to the palace, where he finally lived like a human being.

Therefore, he has no doubts about his loyalty.

After Zhao Heng arrived in Yancheng, he was sent to the Wuji Palace again due to physical reasons, as an eyeliner.

This time, the reason why he chose Xiaoguizi was that Feng’er and Luan’er would officially become concubines and could no longer serve him. The palace needed such a chief eunuch.

Another aspect is that Xiao Guizi is originally from the Fourth Academy, so it is convenient for him to understand various information.
