I Became the Legendary Emperor Throughout the Ages After I Started Giving Away My Territory
Chapter Summary
At that moment, an older disciple of the Beggar Sect stepped forward and said, “Elder, I am deeply indebted to you, but I am the only son in three generations of my family, and I cannot let our lineage end with me! Elder Lai muttered to himself, “Perhaps my choice was the right one…”He didn’t go up to acknowledge the connection but secretly left behind a few taels of silver, hoping that it would help the other person live a better life. ”“Your Majesty, even if they come, we have nothing to fear ...
That night, Elder Lai gathered everyone to announce an important matter.
“Alright, it seems that there are no brothers of ours here.
Great Xia does not have the ground for the development of our Beggar Sect!
Therefore, I have decided that we will set off tomorrow to leave Great Xia and head back home!
”The disciples of the Beggar Sect were shocked and began to speak out to persuade him.
“Elder, are you leaving so soon?
”“Let’s search a bit more, perhaps we can still find a few more brothers!
”“Elder, let’s stay for two more days!
”“Do you want to stay here until the New Year?
” Elder Lai glared at the group of reluctant Beggar Sect disciples.
“Elder, that’s not what we meant…” The Beggar Sect disciples replied with a sheepish smile.
Elder Lai let out a deep sigh: “Actually, I understand what’s on your mind.
You just want to stay in Great Xia!
Because here, you have the chance to escape poverty and live the life you desire, right?
”“Elder…” The disciples of the Beggar Sect lowered their heads in shame.
“I fully understand your thoughts,”The elder said.
“You wish to pursue your own happiness, and there is nothing wrong with that.
I am not an unreasonable man!
”Elder Lai sighed again and pointed towards the doorway, saying, “Well then, I’ll give you a chance.
If you wish to stay in Great Xia, leave now.
Walk out that door, and I assure you, I will not blame you!
”“Elder!
” Everyone looked up in shock.
The elder was actually allowing them to stay?
Was this some kind of joke?
Elder Lai said with a stern face, “This is your last chance!
If you don’t leave now, don’t even think about leaving later.
Just come back to the Beggar Sect with me peacefully!
”The disciples of the Beggar Sect looked at each other, very hesitant.
At that moment, an older disciple of the Beggar Sect stepped forward and said, “Elder, I am deeply indebted to you, but I am the only son in three generations of my family, and I cannot let our lineage end with me!
My mother’s greatest regret before she died was that she couldn’t see me get married and have children.
Therefore, I must stay here to have a chance to find a wife and have children!
I am truly sorry!
”With that, he knelt down and kowtowed three times with loud thuds, then resolutely walked away…After the first one left, the second one quickly spoke up, a young beggar.
“Elder, I too must leave you, because I don’t want to live a life of hardship with no end in sight!
I am still young, I yearn to stand out, I am eager to make a mark and achieve great things, I want to become a general, and I also want to find a wife and have many children!
So, I am truly sorry, Elder.
Please take good care of yourself!
”After saying this, he too knelt down and kowtowed three times with loud thuds before turning around and leaving.
Then came the third, the fourth, the fifth…Everyone first shared their hardships, then they kowtowed three times before leaving this place.
Elder Lai was very reluctant to see them go, but he sincerely wished them well.
Until at last, they had all gone.
Elder Lai looked at the empty house and began to laugh, a laugh filled with bitterness.
“Everyone’s gone, huh… It’s better this way, better than being a beggar in the Beggar Sect for a lifetime!
”Just then, someone came running back.
Elder Lai’s eyes lit up, and he nodded with satisfaction: “Xiao Hei, you’ve returned, only you are most loyal to the Beggar Sect!
”The other person was greatly startled and waved his hands repeatedly.
“Elder, please don’t misunderstand, I’ve only come back because I left something behind.
I’ll just take my things and leave; pretend I never came back!
”Picking up a package from the ground, he immediately dashed out the door, running even faster than before.
Elder Lai spat out blood: “Pfft!
”Elder Lai was also looking at the empty house, tears streaming down his face as he burst into laughter.
It was unclear whether he was laughing or crying.
Although he said he would leave early the next morning, Elder Lai did not go.
Instead, he hid himself and quietly followed behind the disciples of the Beggar Sect.
Watching them register with the court full of hope, watching them mine and build houses, watching them enjoy steaming hot meals, watching the smiles bloom on their faces…He finally left with peace of mind.
He didn’t immediately leave Great Xia but instead retraced his steps, wanting to see how the other disciples of the Beggar Sect were faring.
In the end, he found that they were all doing well, better than when they were in the Beggar Sect.
During this time, he also encountered a Beggar Sect disciple who had disappeared long ago and quietly followed him.
He discovered that the man’s wife had just given birth, and the man, holding the newborn baby, had a blissful smile on his face like that of a proud new father.
Elder Lai muttered to himself, “Perhaps my choice was the right one…”He didn’t go up to acknowledge the connection but secretly left behind a few taels of silver, hoping that it would help the other person live a better life.
Unknowingly, he had arrived at the border of Great Xia.
When he came, there were over thirty people, but when he left, he was the only one remaining.
Elder Lai’s mood was extremely complex.
He turned his head for a last look at Great Xia, said nothing, and then departed.
However, not long after, the number of Beggar Sect disciples sneaking into Xia had increased.
Lin Beifan secretly smiled; his plan had succeeded.
Talents of the Beggar Sect, come to my bowl!
I, the Emperor, welcome everyone!
…….
Time slowly passes, and the weather has gradually turned cold; winter is about to arrive.
Since Great Xia is free from external threats and internal strife, the nation enjoys peace and prosperity, and its people live in happiness and contentment.
However, the countries surrounding the great edifice—Great Xue, Great Zhu, and Great Shi—are still embroiled in fierce conflict.
Now, the great war among these three nations has finally been decided.
As expected, it was Great Xue who won.
Great Xue not only had formidable military strength but also many experts.
He had already defeated the allied forces of a million soldiers from two countries, breached their borders, captured their territories, and would soon reach their capital city.
Thus, the regional situation of the countries surrounding Great Xia was about to undergo a significant change.
In light of this, Lin Beifan rarely convened a court meeting and asked, “Honorable Ministers, what are your views?
”Chai Yulang, the Grand General, stood up, bowed respectfully, and said loudly, “Your Majesty, we should observe the changes and watch the tigers fight from the mountain!
”“Why?
” Lin Beifan asked again.
“Because whether it’s Great Xue, Great Shi, or Great Zhu, they are all enemies of our Great Xia!
Since they are all enemies, let them fight it out.
No matter who wins or loses, their national power will be greatly weakened, which will be advantageous for our country!
”“Aren’t you afraid that after Great Xue annihilates Great Shi and Great Zhu, they will turn against us?
”“No need to fear, for our Great Xia has grown far stronger than before!
”General Chai proudly declared, “The might of our Great Xia Kingdom is now on par with a dynasty!
Back then, when the three countries joined forces, they were no match for us.
Now that there’s only one left, they are even less likely to dare.
”“Your Majesty, even if they come, we have nothing to fear because we have the strength to stand firm against the Great Xue Kingdom!
”“Great Xue is but a minor threat to our Great Xia, isn’t it?
”“Just send out Generals Tiangong, Digong, and Rengong, and they will ensure that the enemy has no chance of return!
”Flattery followed one after another.
Lin Beifan burst into joyful laughter: “Honorable Ministers, well said!
Now let us discuss how we can ensure that our Great Xia secures the greatest benefits in this war!
I invite everyone to share their views!
”One after another, they began to speak up, expressing their opinions.
Some suggested deploying troops to expand the territory and reclaim the five northeastern countries.
Others proposed sending envoys to Great Xue to demand tribute.
There were also suggestions to join forces with Great Xue’s troops and invade the countries of Great Shi and Great Zhu to plunder resources.
However, Lin Beifan was not entirely satisfied with these suggestions.
At that moment, Yuan Tiangang stepped forward.
