Ye Zhen was still having a headache about the name of the country. If the Li family's royal family no longer existed, then Dongqing would naturally perish. What kind of country name would be suitable?
"How about … merging with the Jin Kingdom?" Ye Chunnan looked at Shui Yichen and whispered to Ye Zhen.
She wanted to! But would the 100,000 elite soldiers outside be willing to do so? Ye Zhen glanced at Ye Chunnan. This suggestion was not reliable at all!
Shui Yichen did not even say a word of objection. She just sat aside with a cold face, waiting for Ye Zhen to decide on the country's name.
"In the past, people used the same surname but different country names, such as Zhang Mingde. Why don't the Heavenly Concubine use her own surname as the country's name?" The one who spoke was a middle-aged man sitting next to Shui Yichen. He was a counselor arranged by Ye Yiqing. Although not as intelligent as Ye Yiqing, he was qualified to be the prime minister of a country. His name was Liu Zhanhu.
Should the surname be Ye or Lu? Ye Zhen felt that it was not good to use the surname as the country's name. She shook her head and rejected the idea.
"Since ancient times, no woman has ever been able to unify the country. Why don't … we use Yuan as the country's name? It can also be considered as the beginning of history." Huang Fuchen said in a low voice.
Shui Yichen's eyes flashed, seemingly very appreciative of Huang Fuchen's proposal.
"Yuan?" Isn't that the same as Ming Yu's title in the Hua Nation?
"Isn't Ming Yu's title in the Hua Nation Yuan?" Ye Chunnan asked. In fact, he preferred to merge Dongqing with the Jin Kingdom. In this way, the Jin Kingdom would be stronger and Yao Yao would not have to choose between the Heavenly Concubine and the Jin Empress.
Shui Yichen said lightly, "That is the title of the Princess in the Hua Nation. It has nothing to do with the one here."
Ye Zhen quite liked the title Yuan. In the future, Ming Xi would definitely return to the Jin Kingdom to be the Crown Prince. If she had to be the Heavenly Concubine, she would need an heir in the future. Wasn't Ming Yu just right?
"Then let's use the country name Yuan!" Ye Zhen said with a smile. When Ming Yu grew up, she would be able to give the country to her daughter. Wouldn't it be good to have Mo Rongzhan take care of it for her?
"Okay." A smile appeared on Shui Yichen's face. She had already decided to become the Heavenly Consort of this country.
Following that, they began to discuss how to settle the 100,000 soldiers. This discussion lasted for three days before they finally came up with a comprehensive plan. Following that, they met with the original ministers of Dongqing. Ye Rou then realized how tiring it was to be the ruler of a country. It was fortunate that Mo Rongzhan had the energy to barge into her bedroom at night.
She was so tired that she wanted to sleep for three days and three nights.
Finally, after half a month, the dust seemed to have settled.
Ye Zhen had lost a lot of weight.
Shui Yichen then asked her to prepare for her coronation as the Heavenly Lady. Huangfu Chen had already predicted the best date, which was the fifteenth of the next month.
There was still more than a month to prepare. The next step would be to send invitations to various countries to invite them to the Yuan Nation's Founding Ceremony.
"Invite the emperors of the various countries to participate?" Ye Chunnan touched his chin. He heard that the emperor was already on the way: Do you want to invite Beitang Yu?
Ye Zhen showed a cold smile, "Please! Of course! "
She hadn't met Beitang Yu yet. She wanted to see what kind of person he was first so that she could know how to beat him in the future.
"Then I will send messengers to send invitations to various countries." Huangfu Chen said with a smile.
"Master, I have something to say to you." Ye Zhen stopped Huangfu Chen. Originally, she wanted to talk to him half a month ago, but she couldn't find the time to do so.
Ye Chunnan said, "Then I will go out first. The soldiers in the barracks have not been settled yet."
The treasury of Dongqing was not full. Ye Zhen took out her gold and rewarded it to 100,000 soldiers. She also circled out the fields that originally belonged to the royal family for them to settle down in Dongqing. The royal family had a lot of fields. In addition to the fields and houses of some officials who had been confiscated, there were also tens of thousands of soldiers who had settled down in the border cities. It would take at least half a year to arrange everything in this way, but it was not a problem.
Now, no one would dare to offend them. They had a few years to settle down and bring back their families in the country.
Although Ye Chunnan was not a general from the country, he had been with the soldiers for a long time. He had become a respectable general in their hearts.
There were only Ye Zhen and Huangfu Chen in the hall.
"Master, please sit down." Ye Zhen said with a smile, motioning Huangfu Chen, who had already stood up, to sit down again.
"Well, what do you want to talk to me about?" Huangfu Chen looked at Ye Zhen with a smile.
Ye Zhen personally poured him a cup of tea. "Master, do you still want to go back to the country?"
Huangfu Chen came back with her from the country to help her stabilize the morale of the army and to better manage the 100,000 elite soldiers. Now that everything had been settled, she was not sure if he was willing to stay.
With his talent, he was qualified to be the prime minister of a country. After the founding ceremony, Yuan Kingdom would be officially established. She needed someone to help her. There were no real capable people among the original ministers of Dongqing. Except for those who came with her from the country, she would not put anyone else in an important position.
"Do you want me to stay?" Huangfu Chen asked in a low voice.
Ye Zhen was slightly stunned. Of course, she hoped that Huangfu Chen could stay, but shouldn't this kind of thing be his own decision?
"Master, I don't want to force you to stay." Ye Zhen said.
Huangfu Chen looked at her with bright eyes. "I have no fixed residence. I can stay anywhere. If you want me to stay, I will stay, no matter what."
"Mingxi and Ming Yu are growing up. I want to ask Master to enlighten them." Ye Zhen whispered her request. "Master, are you willing to be Mingxi's tutor?"
"You want me to stay and be the tutor of Mingxi and Ming Yu?" Huangfu Chen was silent for a moment, but his voice was still as gentle as water.
Ye Zhen nodded gently. She couldn't find a more suitable person than Huangfu Chen. In terms of knowledge, knowledge, and status in the world, Huangfu Chen was the best. If he could become the tutor of Mingxi and Ming Yu, it would be a blessing for the two children.
"Good." Huangfu Chen nodded with a smile. In the past, he couldn't find a reason to stay. Now, at least he could stay openly.
Ye Zhen's face lit up. "Really? Master, I don't want to force you. It doesn't matter if you don't want to stay. "
Huangfu Chen shook his head with a smile. "I don't want to force you. I can stay here for a few years."
It would be good to stay by her side for a few years.
"Great, I'll ask Mingxi and Ming Yu to come over." Ye Zhen said happily. After thinking for a moment, she said, "They are my sons. They should have called you grandmaster. Now that you are their tutor, it's a bit messy."
"It doesn't matter. It's just a status." Huangfu Chen said helplessly, "Although you call me master, I have never fulfilled my duty as a master. It's good to compensate Mingxi and the others."
