Chapter 551: Surrender
Today, the Tianxuan Empire is decorated with lights and people are jubilant.
Whether it is Kyoto or the four states, all the people of Tianxuan are in a state of extreme excitement.
Because today is a day that can be recorded in the history of Tianhan Continent, a day worthy of national celebration.
After today, the human race of Tianhan Continent will become a unified country!
Her Majesty will accept the surrender letter of Ning Yu, the new emperor of the Blue Flame Empire, in Yanjing, the imperial capital of the Blue Flame Empire.
From now on, the Tianxuan Empire will unify the territory of the human race.
Mo Fan followed the empress's carriage to the Yanjing Palace.
Along the way, the people of the Blue Flame Empire did not seem to have much resistance.
Their expressions were wooden. Although they were about to become slaves of a conquered country, they were not particularly desperate.
They looked calm, just watching the empress's carriage all the way.
From now on, they will also become subjects of the Tianxuan Empire.
At the gate of the imperial city, Mo Fan and the empress were surprised to find that a group of people kneeling at the gate were dressed in plain clothes and wearing mourning scarves on their heads.
The leader was not Ning Yu, the new emperor of Lanyan, but his son Ning Shen.
Mo Fan had an ominous premonition and appeared in front of Ning Shen.
"Ning Shen, where is Ning Yu?"
"Father said that he would not be a king or a minister of a fallen country. He passed away early this morning." Ning Yu looked sad and his eyes were red.
Mo Fan suddenly.
It must be said that Ning Yu was a madman who would do anything to achieve his goal. He asked him for this month's time just to satisfy his emperor addiction for a month.
Perhaps Ning Yu would be the emperor with the shortest reign in the entire Tianhan Continent.
But he was not the most foolish emperor.
Mo Fan admitted that Ning Yu's ability to govern the country was still very outstanding.
In the last month before the destruction of the country, Ning Yu not only appeased the people of the entire Lanyan Empire and stabilized the people's hearts.
He also sorted out the entire country in an orderly manner.
Otherwise, Tianxuan's army would not have taken over the city defense of the Lanyan Empire so smoothly.
Thousands of years of hostility made the people of the two countries hostile to each other, and it was not so peaceful.
Ning Yu did all this in just one month.
Although he was also a traitor who plotted rebellion.
However, he did much more than that.
In this month, Ning Yu eliminated all the remaining forces of the Lan family in the Blue Flame Empire, and the restoration faction headed by Prince Lan Yun and Kong Kong were all wiped out.
Except for Kong Kong, all the others were cleared by Ning Yu.
From then on, the Lan family of the Blue Flame Empire will also become history, and the royal family is almost gone.
Ning Yu did what he said, and handed over a pacification of the Blue Flame to Mo Fan.
Without the Lan family, the future Blue Flame subjects will have no backbone, and it will be difficult to cause unrest again.
But after doing all this, Ning Yu maintained his last dignity and guarded his last dream.
I, Ning Yu, planned my whole life and used one month to prove that I could be a good emperor.
My failure was not because I was a tyrant, but because the enemy was too powerful, so powerful that I could not resist.
Even if I die, I did not die under the house arrest of the king of the fallen country, nor did I die on the sword of the rebel who surrendered, nor did I die in the battle of the enemy country.
I died in my own hands, I died on the throne, and I did not write a surrender letter.
As for what will happen to the empire after my death, it has nothing to do with me.
Although it was only a month, I was still an emperor.
Mo Fan's eyes were a little complicated, and Ning Yu's actions touched him greatly.
This is a person who is desperate for his ideals. He knows the current affairs, but he has principles.
It's just a different standpoint.
Ning Yu was originally a character that Mo Fan didn't write much about. He only mentioned him as a vassal of Lin Yang in the later Blue Flame's war of destroying the country.
Until the end, his dream was not realized.
Now, although it was only a month, he died on the throne after all, which can be regarded as a wish come true.
"I know, what are your plans after the ceremony?" Mo Fan sighed.
"Great Sage, my father is dead. Suo Tianxuan is merciful and will not kill all of our Ning family. My father and I hope to retire to the mountains and mourn for our father." Ning Yu whispered.
"Great Sage, please rest assured. My father and I have no ambitions. We just want to live a peaceful and stable life."
"Yes, it's okay." Mo Fan nodded and agreed.
Not to mention that Ning Shen didn't have such ambitions from the beginning. Even if he did, with him and the empress, what kind of storm can a mere Minghuang cause?
Han Yan'er had already pulled Ning Xian, who was crying like a pear blossom, aside and whispered something.
And the moment when Ning Shen handed the letter of surrender to the empress will be recorded in the history books forever.
…………
And at this moment, somewhere on the street, behind a closed door, a lame boy with a haggard face was sitting in front of a small house at the back of the courtyard, gulping down strong liquor.
An unnatural blush rose on his face, and his beard was untidy, as if it had not been trimmed for a long time.
His eyes were filled with confusion and despair, and tears slid down the corners of his eyes. He suddenly sighed to the hut behind him: "Grandpa, Tianxuan has been unified."
"Bang!"
The door of the hut was pushed open by a strong force, and an old man with disheveled hair and a dirty face poked his head out.
He was slovenly, his clothes were messy, and his hair was gray and messy, like a crazy old man.
In fact, for a long time, he was indeed a crazy old man.
But at this moment, the cloudy and confused eyes of the past have disappeared.
Replaced by the wisdom and brilliance that has not been possessed for a long time.
"Tian...Tianxuan, unification..."
It seems that he has not spoken for a long time, and the old man's speech is a little unclear.
But the difficulty and pain in his tone are deeply touching.
He grabbed the wine pot in front of him and drank a few mouthfuls fiercely.
The spicy wine stimulated his mouth, nose and throat, causing him to cough violently.
"Cough cough. Your Majesty, I have failed you!"
As if the wine made people brave, the old man spoke more fluently.
"Oh, which majesty did Mr. Wang feel sorry for?"
Suddenly, a ghostly figure appeared in front of the door of the hut, and a young man in white clothes put his hands behind his back.
He looked tired, as if he had not rested for a long time.
He was Kong Kong.
These days, under Ning Yu's constant pursuit, he tried his best to protect the children of the Lan family and the descendants of his adoptive father.
But his strength was low, and he could not protect anyone except his fiancée, Lan Caiwei, the youngest daughter of the Blue Flame Emperor.
Wang Hua's complicated eyes fell on Kong Kong. Even though he was tired, Kong Kong's appearance was still meticulous.
"Hehe, I'm sorry to the two majesties." Wang Hua smiled.
Then he drank the wine in the pot and looked up at the sky.
He seemed to see the high spirits when he left the Blue Flame Palace.
It seemed that he saw everyone praising him when he ruled Tianxuan.
It seemed that he saw the despair when his plan was exposed.
There was the earnest eyes of the Blue Flame Emperor.
There was also the disappointed eyes of the empress.
He had been serving two emperors at the same time for a long time in his life.
One of them has now passed away, and the other no longer needs him.
"Hahahahaha..." Wang Hua laughed up to the sky, and his skinny and decayed body slowly fell backwards.
The life gradually disappeared from his eyes.
At the last moment of his life, he shouted loudly.
"Long live Tianxuan! Long live the Blue Flame!"
