After conquering the Southern Zhou Dynasty, the emperor ordered the research on new warships, the kind that could withstand waves. Several types have been produced over the years, and the latest one is said to be able to withstand storms.

"This time..."

"I can come back." The emperor was full of nonsense.

"But Ah Liang is alone in Chang'an!"

"I was alone back then. Then, wouldn't he soon become two or three people?"

"Wedding?"

"Yes! Wedding!"

The prince is getting married.

On the fifth day after the emperor returned, Yi Niang went to the Wang family on behalf of the emperor.

The Wang family had nothing to say and nodded in silence. They just felt that the dowry was a bit shabby. Yi Niang said that too many dowries for the prince's women would be a disaster.

These words implicitly pointed out the emperor's attitude: the prince's woman, and even the prince's woman must be of ordinary origin.

Then don't even think about women from wealthy families.

The Wang family thought the wedding would take its time, but the emperor's vigorous and decisive actions once again caught them off guard.

The prince's wedding was held in midsummer. This was achieved only after the emperor repeatedly urged it. For this reason, the officials of the Ministry of Rites often slandered the emperor.

Weddings are very lively.

There are also many guests coming.

Those who were interested noticed that the attitudes of the envoys from foreign vassals who came to congratulate him changed greatly. When they faced the emperor, the fear in their eyes was impressive.

There was even an envoy from a small country who knelt down when he saw the emperor.

After the prince's wedding was over, the emperor couldn't wait to pretend to be sick in court, saying that he had been fighting for many years and needed to recuperate...

He also moved out the queen, who was very skilled in medicine and said very seriously that he must rest, otherwise...

The ministers were a little uneasy.

Although the prince showed pleasing abilities, they were still accustomed to governing the world under the emperor's rule.

Will there be any problems if we change the emperor?

This is not only a concern for the ministers, but also a concern for everyone in the world.

But the emperor simply lay down.

He won't come to court.

This is such a shame!

Finally, Liu Qing, who had gone home to wait for death, came back again and said, "Don't push him anymore. If you push him again, he will really run away quietly. It'll be up to you what you do then."

have to!

The ministers could only bow their heads.

An emperor who abdicates should be depressed, but at the ceremony, the emperor could not hide his pride and joy.

At the end of the ninth year of Yongde, Emperor Li Xuan passed the throne to Prince Li Qi.

…

"You said His Majesty abdicated the throne?"

Luocheng has now become a complete port city, with countless ships coming and going every day. Three years ago, the DPRK set up the Municipal Shipping Department to manage Luocheng full-time and collect taxes.

"yes!"

Two clerks stood on the pier, waiting for a fleet to dock. The next step was to inspect the goods, value them, and collect taxes.

"Your Majesty is still in his prime! Now that he has abdicated, where can he go?"

"It's because he's not in good health. I guess he's taking care of the children in the palace!"

"Trying with grandson with pleasure?"

"The fleet is coming, no, this is a warship!"

The navy is back.

The huge fleet of ships slowly docked.

Several generals got off the ship, and the officials of the Shipping Department were about to come forward to say hello when they saw them saluting behind them.

"I have met His Majesty!"

Everyone turned around and saw the emperor... no, they saw a middle-aged man walking around surrounded by others. In the distance, there were a group of women and children of different ages.

"I am the Supreme Emperor!"

This is the emperor who everyone said was raising the new emperor's children in the palace.

"I've met the Supreme Emperor!"

The Supreme Emperor nodded, "Are you all ready?"

A general stepped forward. He glanced at the emperor quickly, with unconcealed enthusiasm in his eyes, and lowered his head, "The navy is ready to attack. I would like to ask your majesty for instructions on the purpose of this trip."

The emperor looked at the end of the sky and showed a smile that was familiar to countless opponents in the past.
