Capítulo 1698: Chapter 55: The Past Is Like the Moon, Unreachable
Duan Qingyu thought for a moment and sighed:
“However, the Dragon Chair, is ten coins still a bit too little?”
He wanted to say that ten coins weren’t much, but Prince Qin thought for a moment and replied: “Indeed, it’s just a Dragon Chair, it really isn’t enough. Someday, let’s place the Dragon Chair of Ying Country next to it.”
His casual words seemed like the whispering of a sharp sword.
The chilling and solemn aura, the king’s resolve all poured out.
Duan Qingyu’s pupils contracted violently, Yue Qianfeng’s laughter vanished, as he looked at the young monarch, Prince Qin said: “Place both Chen Country and Ying Country Dragon Chairs together, swords, seals, the scars of three hundred years of chaos, and let ten coins prove its end.”
“Do you two think this price is fair?”
“Ten coins, a meal, a bowl of porridge, an egg.”
“A cup of tea.”
“Two Dragon Chairs, three hundred years of chaos.”
Yue Qianfeng and Duan Qingyu’s expressions grew solemn, they finally lowered their heads, in this scene, pressed their lips together, saying: “In this way, it’s best…”
Prince Qin laughed heartily.
Emperor Chen, Chen Dingye executed various officials, but still in Jiangzhou City, there were many mid to lower-tier bureaucrats, and after those Great Officers disappeared, they came out, wearing court dress, respectfully to visit Prince Qin.
Chen Dingye’s actions and deeds, Li Guanyi couldn’t understand.
Chen Dingye annihilated most of the high-ranking officials, butchered the great families, yet left many middle and lower-tier officials, letting these officials witness firsthand, or indirectly, the Emperor Chen’s massacre of officials, his intent to burn the city.
This resulted in Prince Qin’s name being remarkably great, without any tarnish, and no one claimed that Prince Qin himself set fire to the city.
Thus, the hundred officials expressed their desire to offer congratulations to Prince Qin, claiming that Emperor Chen was foolish and ungodly, both people and officials suffered under his tyranny, fortunate that a Saint descended from heaven, Prince Qin raised an army, swept away the evils, came to Jiangzhou City, the hundred officials came to welcome him.
Prince Qin simply said: “Since he is ungodly, then before this.”
“Where were you all?”
With just this one sentence, the officials couldn’t say anything more.
The hundred officials again kneeled forward to pay respects, claiming to hope Prince Qin Your Majesty would reside in the Chen Country palace, and they would naturally maintain order in Jiangzhou City. Prince Qin heard and laughed loudly, saying: “All Chen Country officials, yet wanting to come under my Qin’s rule?”
“Seeing this palace majestic and splendid, Chen’s great world perished because of it.”
“You all, want to harm me?”
Thus, these hundred officials and ministers, their faces flushed, momentarily not knowing what Prince Qin meant, this so-called magnificence and grandeur of the palace, what exactly was it pointing at, the literal palace, or themselves?

Only a subtle fear reached a certain level in their hearts.
Even the hundred officials welcoming the Royal Army event, this Majesty didn’t care at all, they previously thought, by choosing sides, they would surely gain importance, but they didn’t expect that Prince Qin did not care about their choice.
Several days of anxiety, not knowing how this Prince Qin Your Majesty would deal with them.
Among them, someone was calm, muttering to himself: “We are not like Feng Yuning, Wu Yun such greedy officials, do not wear that blood-stained scarlet robe of the people, only wear blue, have practiced for many years, also considered to have some skills.”
“If Prince Qin uses us, we will work diligently, can contribute to the world.”
“If Prince Qin doesn’t use us, is it not possible to find a place for our talent? Can always go to places like private schools around the country, just being a teacher, teaching children, letting them read and write, isn’t that also living up to what we’ve learned in this life?”
He was naturally calm, yet there was also someone furious and unwilling, just gritting his teeth:
“Afraid the wolf is gone, the tiger will come.”
“Prince Qin, Prince Qin, he’s just a wandering man, his father, Taiping Duke has a reputation, but after all, he came out from the marketplace, without guidance, afraid he retains the peasant nature of his ancestors.”
“Such a person ascending to heaven, might not be a blessing…”
His words fell, the surrounding young generation of officials’ expressions changed, as if there were springs from the Mo School under their seats, popped up like this, in an instant pulled away at least three zhang distance from him.
Just with a clatter, a large space cleared around this young scholar.
Huh!!!
Frightening!
Don’t drag us to death!
This young man was slightly startled, immediately realized what this behavior represented, momentarily enraged, his face turned bluish-purple, an elder rose and stepped forward, raised his hand and slapped him fiercely, made this young man almost spin several times in place, then sat down.
His eyes widened, staring blankly at the teacher in front.
“Teacher?”
The elder angrily leaned on his cane, shouted: “Rebellious student, scourge!”
“What nonsense are you spouting!”
“You’re not my student, I have no qualification, to take such a critical talent as a student!”
“Prince Qin Your Majesty, is one appointed by destiny, heaven said eight hundred years ago there will be a Saint, with compassion for all life in eyes.”
“Not fond of beauty, not greedy for gold and silver.”
“Sword in hand, only came to rescue all life, that is Prince Qin Your Majesty, now, the great Prince Qin has arrived in Jiangzhou City, we may not be lucky, cannot serve Prince Qin Your Majesty wholeheartedly, but must rise in this world, spreading His Majesty’s benevolence.”
“How can you, speak such nonsense?”
