Chapter 267: The Face of the Sovereign <<<

"Good! Father! You're a smart one!"

As soon as these words left his mouth, Jin Jiande let out a sigh of relief. He was afraid that his father and elder brother would be like him, still thinking about relying on the Shenji Camp to defeat the rebel army.

A rebel has nothing to lose; he's already barefoot, what does a shoe matter? If he loses, it's death anyway. But if the court loses, they stand to lose everything.

To risk the family's century-old business for a mere rebel? It's clearly not worth it!

As the saying goes, fortune favors the bold. This year, those who were once considered unlucky have had their luck turn around. However, as time goes by, conflicts are bound to arise!

First, return to Nanze, our ancestral home, and conserve our strength. In the future... we'll talk about it later!

At that moment, Jin Jiande unexpectedly found a glimmer of hope amidst his grief.

But soon, Jinfengluan's roar made his heart skip a beat, and all joy vanished.

"Move the capital? Have me move the capital?!"

"Damn it! Nanjing is the capital of the Great Xia, and I am the emperor. Nanjing is my imperial residence! How can we move the capital!"

"Never! I will never move the capital!"

The Golden Wind Phoenix had risen from the Dragon Throne, his face contorted in anger.

Alas.... Jin Jiande's heart was filled with bitterness.

Without the slightest hesitation, he hurriedly said:

"Your Majesty, it's time like this, we cannot delay any longer."

"The elder brother led his troops to suppress the rebels, and the result is yet to be known. If something goes wrong and the rebels break into Jinling, it will be disastrous!"

Before King Qing could speak, Jin Fengluan's sharp cry followed.

"Jianren isn't there still the Divine Machine Camp! How come it doesn't work anymore!"

"The smoke signals reached the capital, but it wasn't the rebels who had arrived! What are you moving things for? The rebels haven't even come yet, should I just sneak away?"

"Am I to be disregarded?"

"If we move the capital, won't that be a laughingstock for the whole world?"

In fact, Jin Fengluan was unsure whether they could suppress the rebellion in the coming battles.

But to relocate the capital, she simply couldn't accept it. This would be tantamount to telling the world that she was afraid of the traitorous rebel, as if she were handing over the throne to him.

How can this be accepted?

To know throughout the ages, since the Jin family became the ruler of Dagan, no matter what state Dagan was in, no emperor ever moved the capital.

If it falls into their hands, will they set a precedent and make a hasty retreat to their hometown of Nanze?

As a king of a nation, wouldn't that be a disgrace to your face, and bring you ridicule?

She can't give up on this person.

When Jin Jiande saw that she disagreed, he could only turn to his father for help again.

At this moment, hearing the shrill cries of the golden wind lark, King Qing sighed:

"Your Majesty, the situation is unclear at present. If it weren't for necessity, your humble servant would not dare to suggest a move of the capital."

"It's just... what can we do? The battle situation is still undecided. No one can guarantee which side will prevail in the coming events.

"Your Majesty, though you bear the dragon's fortune, it seems that the traitorous rebel also possesses some auspiciousness now."

Although it may be a passing fad, his current brilliance is undeniable and difficult to contain.

As the saying goes, "A crouching dragon in the abyss waits for its time. When misfortune strikes, one should hold back and bide their time. It is best to retreat to Nanze, our original Dragon's Rise territory. Now that the dragon returns to its ancestral home, it may not be a bad thing after all."

Jin Feng's chest, which had been heaving violently, gradually calmed, but she remained sullen and silent.

King Qing pondered for a moment, then continued:

"Bei Liang was occupied by rebels, the East Sea had Fusang causing chaos, and there were those from the Chi Chao Alliance stirring up trouble in secret, creating havoc everywhere."

"As for the Southern Border, it is much more peaceful. It's all our people there, loyal and devoted. They have ample troops as well. Going there would be better than staying in Jinling right now."

“Besides...”

When he got to this point, his voice became grave.

"The South China Sea ports are under our control. Jianzhong has made many connections with prominent figures overseas, they are all influential people. Perhaps we can cooperate with them."

Even if a traitor takes control of Jinling and declares himself emperor, it would only be a temporary victory.

"Your humble servant dares to say, within a year, he will be in great distress."

The current mess in Dayuan is quite extensive. Kushan is invading, and before Xijing fought with Tu Yuan, which means Tu Yuan will definitely come again for another fight.

Of course, he didn't say that out loud.

But these words already made Kim Geon-deok, who was standing nearby, deeply moved.

He's right. He makes a good point, and I have to admit that it makes sense.

But when Jin Fengluan heard this, his face turned ashen.

Only one emperor can rule a country. Just thinking about the treacherous rebels invading Jinling and sitting on his dragon throne, Jinfeng Luan almost ground her pair of silver teeth to dust.

In fact, the pair of delicate hands concealed within the sleeve had already clenched into fists.

She glared furiously, the more she thought about it, the angrier she became, but she just couldn't bring herself to speak about relocating the capital.

Meanwhile, seeing her in this state, Jin Jiande quietly bumped his father's shoulder and then winked at him, urging him to say a few more words.

King Qing shook his head, but still said:

As long as the green mountains remain, there's no need to worry about running out of firewood.

"Your Majesty, our century-long foundation has been hard-won. Along the way, we have faced many storms, but in the end, we have weathered them all."

"It's just that perhaps this storm is fiercer, but luckily the foundation remains. Your Majesty is truly the Son of Heaven, blessed by the heavens. Even if rebels try to usurp the throne, they are simply unjust and their words are nonsensical."

"Look at this sort of person, could they really be fit to rule a nation? Hmph."

Upon hearing this, Jin Fengluan narrowed her eyes and her fists, which had been clenched tightly, also relaxed.

Of course, no matter what Qin Ze does, he's just a traitor. Revoltng against the emperor is something that will get him scorned by everyone.

He is a psychopath, he has killed so many people, his methods are cruel, who isn't afraid of him?

He was a kind and compassionate person, even in the midst of war with other races. He always sought to leave room for reconciliation and never aimed for complete annihilation.

Let him swagger for a while then.

The Great Qin dynasty is still ours; it's just a temporary setback. Who hasn't experienced a low point?

Back in Nanze, it's all our people, a solid wall. Even if rebels enter Jinling, we can just bring our forces back later.

As soon as she thought of this, Jin Fengluan's slightly quelled anger flared up again.

I, the emperor of a nation, would never be driven to such a desperate point as to threaten to return and slaughter the capital!

This shouldn't be something I say, nor should I even think about it!

Oh, damn it! This traitorous wretch is driving me mad!

Thus, she gritted her teeth, her chest heaving with anger.

This look made Jin Jiande unable to help himself. He pleaded, almost begging,

"Your Majesty, this matter cannot be delayed any longer, it must be arranged immediately."

If we delay any longer, what if the rebels come? Then it will be too late to regret!

No sooner had he finished speaking than a cold retort from Jin Fengluan followed:

"Alright! Shut up!"
