HCB Chapter 860 Ascending the Throne
Chapter 860 Ascending the Throne
"Your Majesty Jiang! You can do it!"
"Do great things quietly!"
"Didn't you tell me before that you would help our grasslands!?"
"I even gave you a warhorse, and now... you are the emperor!?"
The prairie princess got angrier the more she thought about it!
When she learned that Jiang Chen had really become the emperor, she was completely shocked!
She felt deeply deceived!
Those are all purebred war horses!
"Your Highness, I can help you now!"
"Think about it, I was just a duke before, so my abilities were limited."
"But I am now the emperor of Ming Dynasty, formerly known as Dajing."
“You say, can I do more?”
"There will be many things I can help you with in the future."
Jiang Chen said with a smile on his face.
But the prairie princess was so angry that she wanted to kill someone!
What she wanted Jiang Chen to help her do was to capture Dajing!
But now that Jiang Chen has taken over Dajing himself, how could he possibly give the grassland to them!
She...she...
"Your Highness, you came at the right time today. I plan to open up trade between Dajing and the grassland. What do you think?" Jiang Chen seemed not to see the grassland princess's anger and smiled slowly.
"You...you want to trade with the grassland!?"
The prairie princess was shocked!
You know, Dakang and Dajing had been blocking the grassland before!
They refused to provide the imperial court with grain, refined salt, and iron tools, fearing that the grassland would develop.
But now, Jiang Chen actually wants to trade with the grassland...
"Why? Princess, you don't want to?"
Jiang Chen saw the shocked look on the grassland princess' face and asked with a smirk on his face.
"I... of course I am willing!"
"You...are you telling the truth?!" The prairie princess stared at Jiang Chen, afraid that he would go back on his word!
……
"Of course it's true. We can sell food, ironware, and even refined salt to the grasslands."
"But I also have a condition, that is, the grassland must sell us war horses, cattle and sheep."
"As long as the grassland agrees, we will trade!"
Jiang Chen said calmly.
When the prairie princess heard Jiang Chen's words, she fell into deep thought.
Smuggling some war horses to Jiang Chen and General Luo and opening the country's borders to sell war horses to Dajing on a large scale are two different concepts!
However, the conditions offered by Jiang Chen were really tempting.
She couldn't bear to refuse...
"Okay! I agree!"
"I will write a letter right away and ask my brother to discuss it with our father. They will agree!"
The prairie princess finally agreed.
In the opinion of the grassland princess, even if Dajing got war horses, it would not be able to train powerful cavalry!
Their grassland cavalry is invincible!
When Jiang Chen heard the grassland princess agree, he couldn't help but smile faintly.
"Thank you, Your Highness. I believe that Your Highness will not regret the decision you made today."
"Hmph! I hope so!" The prairie princess snorted coldly and turned to leave!
But before the Prairie Princess took two steps, Jiang Chen called her.
"Wait a moment!"
"Ok?"
Princess Prairie frowned slightly: "Your Majesty Jiang, do you have anything else to do?"
The Prairie Princess looked at Jiang Chen in confusion.
"Princess, why are you in such a hurry to leave?"
"You haven't seen me for so long, don't you miss me?"
Jiang Chen walked towards the grassland princess step by step with an ambiguous smile on his face.
"you you……"
When the prairie princess saw Jiang Chen’s smile, she instantly panicked.
Just when the prairie princess wanted to escape, Jiang Chen hugged her slender waist.
I have to say, the prairie princess has a really thin waist...
……
An hour later, the prairie princess left the palace with weak legs.
Her face was full of resentment at this moment.
Jiang Chen actually dared to use force!
She was also very comfortable during the process.
But...but she was still not satisfied!
"Humph! Sooner or later I will deal with you! Even if you become the emperor!"
The prairie princess snorted angrily!
And in the next two days, Jiang Chen finally felt a little more relaxed.
It was not until the day of his enthronement that Jiang Chen became busy again!
Early in the morning of that day, Jiang Chen began to prepare for the ceremony!
The capital city is extremely lively!
When the people knew that Jiang Chen ascended the throne as emperor, they were so excited!
They had long heard that Jiang Chen was virtuous and loved the people!
Naturally, I look forward to Jiang Chen ascending the throne!
Especially after Jiang Chen announced his decrees after ascending the throne, people all over the world were even more excited!
Even the merchants were extremely excited!
Because their descendants can also serve as officials in the court!
This is what they have been looking forward to all along!
However, although these wealthy businessmen were happy, the aristocratic families were unhappy.
In the past, they were able to show off their power in this land because they controlled the officials.
Now, with Jiang Chen's decree, their privileges are gone!
According to Jiang Chen's decree, anyone can be an official as long as they are talented!
How can they attract talents?
In the past, if ordinary people had talent and wanted to become officials, they had to marry into aristocratic families!
……
This kind of people, even if they become officials, will be controlled by aristocratic families in the future and will not have freedom!
And now, with Jiang Chen's decree, ordinary people can also take the imperial examinations.
In this case, how can the aristocratic families still be competitive?
The more they thought about it, the angrier they became.
However, most of the most powerful families now support Jiang Chen.
They...they want to do something wrong, but they don’t have the chance!
No matter how angry everyone was, they had to endure it!
And just three days after Jiang Chen ascended the throne, General Feng was escorted back.
At this time, General Feng was sitting in the prison car, with disheveled hair and dirty face.
It no longer has the brilliance and beauty of the past.
He thought he would soon become the grandfather of the Crown Prince of Dajing, but who could have imagined that he would be captured by his men while he was sleeping!
"Haha, General Feng, long time no see!"
After Jiang Chen saw the imprisoned General Feng, he laughed coldly!
"Jiang Chen! You traitor! How dare you rebel!"
"You have to die!!!"
General Feng shouted angrily!
General Feng knew that he could not escape death, so he was no longer afraid!
In General Feng's opinion, he ended up in this situation today because of Jiang Chen!
If Jiang Chen hadn't rebelled, how could he have ended up like this! ?
"I am a traitor?"
Jiang Chen laughed coldly when he heard what General Feng said.
"General Feng, the reason I was able to ascend to the throne of emperor is thanks to your daughter and son!"
"They imprisoned that tyrant, so I have the opportunity!"
"Tell me, really, who is the traitor?"
When General Feng heard what Jiang Chen said, he shouted in disbelief!
"This is impossible! You are talking nonsense! Where are my daughter and son!?"
