Chapter 7947
7947 Chapter 7945-
His feelings for Sima Yunqi and his wife were not fake, Lin Yi could see that.
There were some things Lin Yi couldn’t tell Liu Ziyu too clearly, like how he wouldn’t be staying here for long.
So there was no way Lin Yi would sit on the throne himself!
As for handing it over to Sima Yunqi, it was not impossible. The problem was that if Sima Yunqi became the Emperor, the throne would belong to the Sima family!
Once Lin Yi left, Sima Yun would have no other sons, and it might end up with Sima Zhongyi and Sima Zhongxiao, these two idiots.
After all, the Sima clan was a large clan. Even if Sima Yun were to become the Emperor, it was impossible for him to be separated from the Sima clan!
After he passed away, the throne would definitely still fall into the hands of the Sima clan, and Liu Ziyu would have nothing to do with it.
Even if si Ma Yun could have stood his ground and passed the position to Liu Ziyu, wouldn’t the outcome still be the same?
As such, Lin Yi decided to just leave the Sima family and let Liu Ziyu be the Emperor.
With Liu Ziyu’s temperament, he would definitely not mistreat Sima Yunqi, his wife, Sima Zheng Xin and the others.
As for the other members of the Sima family, Lin Yi couldn’t be bothered with them.
Of course, Lin Yi had his considerations as well-MA Sijun was a martial artist at first, and wasn’t suited to be an Emperor.
“Then that’s it. I’ll be more at ease if you become the Emperor. As for my grandfather and the others, you can also make arrangements. Hongshang Commandery is a little smaller, so it should be enough to be conferred a larger fief and promoted to a conferred Kingdom!”
Lin Yi didn’t care about a small place like Hongshang Commandery, where several families took turns to be the Commandery Prince.
If he were to allow the Sima clan to establish a new conferred Kingdom, he would be doing them a good favor.
“Cousin Zhong da, although that is what you say, but this little brother is not an Emperor …”
Liu Ziyu felt his head throb and subconsciously wanted to continue declining.
Lin Yi glared, pretending to be displeased.”What happened? My words really don’t work, do they? You won’t listen no matter what I say, right?”
“I don’t dare! Don’t be angry, cousin Zhong da, I was just saying …”
Liu Ziyu’s forehead was covered in sweat-he really didn’t dare disobey Lin Yi.
However, he was really afraid that he would not do a good job as the Emperor.
“It’s good that you don’t dare! If I were the third Princess, I wouldn’t be interested in you!”
Liu Ziyu couldn’t help but puff up his chest when Lin Yi mentioned the third Princess.
That’s right. For the sake of his beloved third Princess, he must be a good Emperor of this new empire!
At the thought of making his beloved girl the Empress of the new empire, Liu Ziyu felt more confident, and he finally couldn’t help but feel excited.
“Cousin Zhong da, what should we do next? I don’t know how to govern a country! After I become the Emperor, cousin Zhong da, you can’t just leave me alone! In the future, you will be the retired emperor! So, elder cousin retired emperor, what do you think we should do now?”
Liu Ziyu immediately gave Lin Yi the title of Emperor.
Lin Yi didn’t really mind-as long as he didn’t get involved, it didn’t matter if it was the Emperor or the Grand Madam, as long as he had a good reputation.
“What are you afraid of? I’ll learn it! Besides, with so many people helping you, are you afraid you can’t learn it?”
Lin Yi pointed lazily at the fallen ministers.
It was hard to say whether these people were talented or not, but it should not be a problem to temporarily use them to stabilize the situation!
“Next, you should prepare for your own Ascension ceremony. In a moment, I will announce in front of everyone that I will pass the throne to you! Therefore, your Ascension ceremony must be fully prepared and Grand. ”
“Why? This little brother should just be a little simpler. Otherwise, there would be so many red tape … Just thinking about it gives me a headache!”
Liu Ziyu had some understanding of rituals and etiquette, so he knew that this was definitely not an easy task!
“Nonsense, I’ll be the Emperor for a day, you’ll be the Emperor for a lifetime! How can we be the same? The grandness of the ceremony had to be proportional to the time he had been an Emperor! Don’t tell me you don’t even know about this?”
Lin Yi’s nonsense sounded reasonable, but it was all bullshit!
Liu Ziyu was dumbfounded. There was such a saying?
Brother, I’ve read a lot, don’t lie to me!
You lied to me … I can only believe you!
“You, and you, you you you!”
Lin Yi didn’t care about Liu Ziyu anymore after his nonsense-he turned around and picked a few people. “You’re in charge of making Liu Ziyu’s Ascension ceremony grander, and you can relax the timing a little. After that, you’ll have to inform the surrounding empires and conferred kingdoms.
“They don’t have to come to my succession ceremony, but all the princes of conferred kingdoms must be present for the Ascension ceremony! The other empires should at least send an emissary to attend. ”
“Any Prince of a conferred Kingdom who is not there will be regarded as a traitor and will be listed on the punitive expedition list! If the neighboring empires didn’t send any emissaries, they would also be listed as enemy nations! I’ll send troops to kill them at any time!”
Lin Yi didn’t want to fight, he only did this to help Liu Ziyu establish his authority!
Liu Ziyu had always been under Lin Yi’s wing and didn’t have much prestige, but once he ascended to the throne, he’d naturally have a lot of prestige if he taught those ignorant bastards a lesson.
It would be even better if there were no blind people. If everyone gave him face, his face would naturally become bigger!
The people who were chosen were surprised and overjoyed-they were overjoyed that they’d be able to build a relationship with Lin Yi, but they were surprised that these missions weren’t easy.
It was hard to say whether sending out such a notice to the conferred kingdoms and surrounding empires would bring fortune or disaster.
“Do you all understand? Is there any problem?”
Lin Yi’s stern eyes swept over them, and they quickly bowed and said loudly that they had no problems with it.
“If there’s no problem, then do it! Don’t waste time here!”
Lin Yi waved his hand and asked the eunuch to find a place for him to rest.
The fight with the elder seemed easy, and he wasn’t injured, but the limited contact made Lin Yi’s body uncomfortable.
In the end, it was still because his body was too weak.
He had no choice but to take a good rest first and slowly think of ways to improve his body’s strength.
Lin Yi went to rest, while Liu Ziyu and the guards were busy comforting the entire Imperial City.
After that, the news of the Shanlian Empire’s destruction and the new Hongshang Empire’s establishment was spread out using Messenger Eagles.
Lin Yi had already attracted the attention of the surrounding empires when he brought 800 men to conquer the cities.
A big country like the Shanlian Empire could not be compared to small countries like the Hongshang Commandery, the black magic Commandery, and the seitong Commandery.
