Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!

Qin Ming was very surprised, as it was well known that Empress Xiao was petty.

But there must be a limit to revenge.

Daqian suffered a series of defeats, and officials in the court tried every possible way to escape.

Not only did she not help Emperor Qian, but at the critical moment, she took her anger out on many officials because of her dissatisfaction.

This will only accelerate the decline of Daqian.

"Ugh……"

Chen Shimao sighed helplessly. When he thought of the plight of the officials in the court, he couldn't sleep the whole night.

Qin Ming saw what he was thinking, so he said:

"Teacher, if you have the means to get them here, please do it as soon as possible. I will not accept any more in half a month."

Chen Shimao served in the court for many years.

Naturally, there are also many acquaintances, and they are all still in the court.

Seeing them being persecuted by Empress Xiao, he, who had always been loyal, must have felt uncomfortable.

After receiving Qin Ming's promise, he slowly nodded and said:

"Your Highness, have you ever thought of becoming emperor?"

"proclaim oneself emperor……!?"

Qin Ming was stunned for a moment.

To be honest, until now, he has never thought about establishing a dynasty.

This requires the formulation of new laws, the establishment of reign titles, etc., which is very troublesome.

"Teacher, isn't it too early to declare yourself emperor now?"

"No... If most of the officials in the court sided with you and followed the old system, inheriting Daqian, wouldn't that also count as becoming emperor?"

Chen Shimao believed that given Emperor Qian's stubborn character, he would never pass the throne to Qin Ming even if he died.

Then there's no need to start with him.

Qin Ming proclaimed himself emperor and deposed Emperor Qian.

By then they would also be Daqian, just one Southern Dynasty and one Northern Dynasty.

Qin Ming, on the other hand, was able to attract all the officials who could no longer stay in the capital and reorganize them on the spot according to the old system without any effort.

"This is a good idea."

After listening to Chen Shimao's description, Qin Ming also felt that there were many benefits.

The most important thing is that they can attract a large number of Daqian’s troops and generals at once.

"Can you please come forward?"

Qin Ming certainly wouldn't go there himself, so he turned his attention to Chen Shimao.

Daqian is crumbling, it's time to defeat them completely.

"If you agree, I will set off tonight with the money and materials."

Qian Cai and Chen Shimao both have great influence in the court.

Seeing this, Qin Ming explained:

"Let Chang Baishan go with you, and remember to bring a shotgun for self-defense."

Qin Ming only made a few shotguns, and only the most important people around him were equipped with them.

"understood."

Chen Shimao smiled and nodded, then turned and left.

After he left, Qin Ming went to the pavilion in the yard under the moonlight, sat down, and lowered his head in thought.

When he came to this world, he thought that one day he would be in charge of a region.

But he didn't expect that as his business got better and better, he would become emperor.

"Half a month later... send troops to the Central Plains."

Qin Ming murmured softly.

Since ancient times, whoever controls the Central Plains controls the world.

After taking this area, the next step is to take the capital.

On the morning of the second day, Qin Ming called Cao Chuan, Liu Chuang, Wu Qingye and Chen Pi and said:

"I'm ready to deploy all my forces in the attack on the Central Plains. Feel free to share any ideas you have."

Liu Chuang laughed loudly and said:

"What can we think of? We can just lead our men to attack. Daqian won't be able to gather troops to resist in the short term!"

Wu Qingye shook his head and pointed to the border on the map.

"Aren't these border troops human beings? They still have at least hundreds of thousands of troops stationed in various places."

Cao Chuan stroked his chin and whispered:

"That's easy. Let Chen Dai lead a group of soldiers and wait. If Daqian dares to dispatch border troops here, we will march to the border and capture all the major cities in the northwest and east."

Daqian is now in tatters, and the only option left for them is to shrink the front line.

And shrinking the front line will inevitably lead to the reduction of their territory.

After listening to their analysis, Qin Ming showed approval.

After countless battles, the generals and soldiers under his command now have extremely high qualities.

"You are right. Let's fight like this. Gather our forces and attack in half a month."

"Your Highness, are you going to take action so soon?"

Several people looked at Qin Ming with some curiosity, obviously worried that there were not enough people.

Qin Ming whispered:

"There may be a new batch of reinforcements coming soon, so don't worry."

Judging from the time, if Chen Shimao could convince those court officials, he would definitely bring some military generals with him.

If these generals of the Daqian Dynasty turned against Qin Ming, they would definitely be of great help to him.

Just looking at the present, many aristocratic families have begun to flirt with Qin Ming openly or secretly.

They all bet on Qin Ming, thinking that he would have the potential to achieve great success in the future.

This is also a common practice used by various aristocratic families.

Some of the military rations, weapons and equipment, and even some war horses in Qin Ming's army were provided by those aristocratic families.

"That's fine."

Cao Chuan seemed to have thought of something, but did not say it directly. He nodded and agreed to Qin Ming's arrangement.

On the other side, Chen Shimao had already arrived at the outskirts of Beijing.

Chang Baishan followed behind and sighed with Qian Cai.

"Oh, it's such a wonderful feeling to be back home again."

Qian Cai smacked his lips and continued:

"I just didn't expect that when I returned to the capital, it was already in turmoil. I don't know how those old brothers have been able to survive these days of living with the emperor like a tiger."

While the two were talking, they saw Chen Shimao come to a tree beside the road and stand still.

"Prime Minister Chen, what are you doing...?"

The two stepped forward in confusion, and Chen Shimao said with a smile:

"An old friend and I have made an appointment to meet here."

"What!?"

When these words came out, both of them opened their eyes wide, their faces full of disbelief.

You have to know that this trip is very dangerous for them.

He did not dare to reveal his whereabouts to the court officials along the way.

He was afraid that the other party would get the information and hand it over to the court to claim the reward. By then, Emperor Qian would arrange people to ambush here in advance and capture them all in one go.

"Don't worry, nothing will happen."

Chen Shimao tried to comfort her, but at this moment a voice suddenly came from behind the tree.

"I, Ye, shouldn't be so unbearable in your eyes, right?"

Hearing this voice, Qian Cai's eyes suddenly widened.

"General Ye! It's you!"

"Prime Minister Chen...you're so cruel! You even called General Ye here?"

As the figure behind the tree slowly walked out, Chang Baishan took a few steps back with shock on his face.

"Ye... General Ye!"

The person who came was General Zhengde, Ye Shoujiang, a close friend of Guan Yue's father Guan Zhenshan, and a person who had an extremely close relationship with Qin Ming.
