Chapter 9
Chapter 9 — The Lord gave my whole family the crime of Tru Di, I smiled and turned around to besiege the city
This is the first time since ascending the throne that I have left the palace. Along the way, people spontaneously knelt on both sides of the road, chanting in unison "Your Majesty is holy". I sat in the sofa, looking through the curtains at the simple yet sincere faces outside, I couldn't help but feel countless emotions. There was a time when I was just one person among thousands of subjects. But now, I have become the person they look up to. Power is truly a magical thing. Half a month later, the spreader arrived at Van Chau City, the largest town in the North. Hac Lien Tranh led all the Northern generals ten miles outside the city to welcome him. He wore a silver armor, a crimson cloak, riding on the back of a tall white horse, proud and majestic. When he saw my price, he immediately threw himself off his horse and knelt on one knee to the ground.
"I, Hac Lien Tranh, welcome your majesty! Long live your majesty!"
Behind him, tens of thousands of generals knelt down at the same time. The sound echoed far into the clouds.
"Welcome your Majesty! Long live your Majesty!"
I stepped down from the shelf and personally helped Hac Lien Tranh stand up.
“General Hac Lien, calm down.” I looked at him and said sincerely. “In this battle, your contribution is the greatest.”
Hac Lien Tranh's eye sockets turned slightly red. He looked at me, his eyes extremely complicated.
“I don't dare take credit.”
He replied in a low voice.
“If it weren't for your majesty's trust, I'm afraid I'd be a dry skeleton in the grave right now.
If it weren't for Your Majesty plotting and deciding to win from thousands of miles away, I absolutely could not have won today."
“The credit for this battle belongs to your Majesty.”
I smiled softly. Don't continue arguing with him anymore. From this moment on, the man in front of me truly admired me. I stayed in Van Chau city for ten days. I personally built the sacrificial stele for the fallen generals. I personally went to the invalid barracks to visit the wounded. We divided half of the reward money from the national treasury to the families of the soldiers who died in battle. The things we do. All soldiers could see clearly. Their eyes looking at me from the initial awe gradually turned into passionate worship. I have completely conquered this team of tiger and wolf lions of the Northern region. The night before leaving Van Chau city. I summoned Hac Lien Tranh. I gave the military emblem of Kinh Ky General Camp into his hands.
"I want you to return to the capital and take on the position of Admiral of Kinh Ky, taking charge of all the defense work of the capital."
Hac Lien Tranh was stunned. How important a position is Kinh Ky Commodore? That is like leaving the entire safety of the capital in his hands. He almost couldn't believe it.
“God... what kind of talent does he have to be so trusted by people…”
“If I say you can do it, you can do it.”
I looked at him and slowly said each word.
“Hac Lien Tranh, I want you to become the sharpest sword in my hand.
There are still many people in this world who are looking at my country. I need you to wipe them out for me.” Hac Lien Tranh looked at me. The excitement in his eyes was beyond words. He suddenly knelt on one knee to the ground. The voice was resounding and steadfast as iron steel.
“I, Hac Lien Tranh, wish to be brave enough for your Majesty until I die!”
I nodded with satisfaction. Captured Hac Lien Tranh. Our Jiangshan is truly as strong as Thai Son. After triumphantly returning to the court, I held an extremely solemn public banquet for Hac Lien Tranh. At the banquet, in front of all civil and military officials, I officially handed over the military talisman of Kinh Ky General Camp to him. This action once again shocked the whole court. But this time. No one dares to stand up and protest anymore. Hac Lien Tranh used an impeccable victory to prove his ability. At the same time, it also proves that my eyes are correct. After the banquet ended, I returned to Kun Ninh palace alone. This place used to be my and Quan Huyen Chieu's new room. It's also where I was once imprisoned. After ascending the throne, I did not move to the Qianqing Palace, which symbolized the supreme power of the empire.
