C649 Disturbance
At this moment, Shen Muqing took a step forward: "I have something to say."1
He looked at Shen Muqing with a bit of oppression in his eyes. Ji Chang, Ying Zheng, and Yang Guang were also extremely nervous. In this atmosphere, the Human Emperor nodded and said, "What is it? Tell me."
Shen Muqing said, "Your son requests Imperial Father to retract his order and temporarily reject the title of Prince of Yan."
The civil and military officials were puzzled. This Shen Muqing? Prince of Ning rejected the title? Since this title was the head of the Seven Nations, it could be said that Prince of Yan's title was extremely important.
The Human Emperor frowned as well. "Why do you say that?"
Shen Muqing said: "Reporting to royal father, according to the agreement back then, this son has to stabilize his Lingnan in order to obtain this title. Although the current Lingnan seems calm, in reality, it has not calmed down yet.
Ji Chang, Ying Zheng, and Yang Guang were all dumbfounded. They fought so hard to stop Shen Muqing from getting the title? However, in Shen Muqing's eyes, it was nothing. It made them feel powerless. If Shen Muqing didn't even put Prince of Yan's title in his eyes, what should they do?
Liu Che and Zhao Kuangyin smiled bitterly, wasn't this Shen Muqing too sincere? So sincere that they couldn't accept it! Compared to Shen Muqing, the argument from before was obvious.
The Human Emperor was stunned for a moment before becoming slightly angry. He had already said so much, yet he still wanted him to take it back? Was it really that difficult for him to make things difficult for the Human Emperor? The Human Emperor immediately said, "I can't take back my golden words. You have to take it, Prince of Yan. If not, you have to take it."
Shen Muqing said helplessly, "In that case, I can only reluctantly accept it. Thank you, Imperial Father."
The Human Emperor nodded. Not bad, but then he felt uncertain. It was obviously due to his Emperor's kindness. Why did it feel like Shen Muqing suffered a loss? The civil and military officials also fainted. Shen Muqing was definitely the first prince who was forced to accept the title.
Now that the Human Emperor gave Shen Muqing the title of Prince of Yan, the assembly was going on. The assembly became heavier because of Shen Muqing, and after each prince spoke, they would look at Shen Muqing and only let out a sigh of relief after confirming that there were no objections.
Wei Zhongxian watched the movement below from above and laughed to himself. Prince of Yan was indeed powerful!
At this moment, Wei Zhongxian suddenly said, "The next proposal is about the mutinies in the southern Chu. Hundreds of thousands of rebels have gone abroad to rob the monasteries. More than a hundred cities have been attacked."
State of Chu was one of the seven nations in the ancient times. If they could capture it, then it would be a glorious battle accomplishment. Many generals were moved, but none of them dared to stand out rashly.
Amongst the seven nations of the Primordial Era, even though their State of Chu wasn't the strongest, it wasn't weak either. Its terrain was vile, filled with poisonous gas, and there were a few Evil Gods that ordinary people couldn't subdue.
There was also one more point. They could not take too many troops with them. After all, most of the rebel soldiers were farmers. If they really brought over a million troops, the whole world would laugh at them.
The Human Emperor swept his gaze over the crowd and asked, "Who are you?"
After a moment of silence, Yang Guang came out and said, "I recommend Li Xin as my general that he will be exterminated."
Everyone was somewhat surprised, but they were not familiar with the name Li Xin. Who was this? Standing in the last row of the military generals, Li Xin was so excited that he fell to his knees and kowtowed, "This lowly general is willing to conquer State of Chu, and will not let down Your Majesty's grace!"
