Nine Princes Struggle for the Throne: The Mad Prince

Chapter 363 Preparing to Relocate the Capital

Qin Wu no longer paid attention to what was happening in the capital.

He has much more to do.

Most of the Central Region is located in the sea, so if you want to build cities in different places, you must choose a suitable location.

It's impossible for every city to be built entirely on reclaimed land, just like the future imperial capital.

Moreover, the project is enormous, and the land reclamation is still ongoing.

It would take at least ten years to complete such a large project.

Qin Wu is currently overseeing the entire matter.

In addition, the deployment of formations in various places is also underway. Fortunately, resources have been sent from above; otherwise, such a large project would be impossible for a mere lower-level domain to undertake.

Everything is proceeding according to plan.

More than a hundred years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Over the past hundred years, the entire Eastern Qin Dynasty has undergone earth-shaking changes.

The entire Central Region was also completely incorporated into the territory of Eastern Qin.

Furthermore, Qin Wu also divided the various forces in the entire Eastern Qin into nine levels.

Above the ninth rank are the royal family and the imperial family.

The four ancient clans were designated as the four royal clans, and they were stationed in the four directions of the Central Region.

Meanwhile, the new imperial city of Dongqin was recently completed.

"Your Highness, news has come from the new capital that the imperial city has been fully completed. They've sent word asking if we should prepare to move the capital. What do they need to prepare?"

Liu Feng reported this to Qin Wu.

"Now that everything is ready, instruct all departments to prepare for the relocation of the capital."

"It's time to move on."

"And what is the background of the group of people who have emerged in recent decades? Is there any way to find out?"

Qin Wu gave the order.

He had been waiting for the new capital to be completed for a long time, and it finally took more than a hundred years to complete.

The reason why the construction of the city was so slow was that the spiritual veins and immortal veins needed to be buried under the city, and a large number of formations needed to be set up to lock all the spiritual energy and immortal energy in the city to prevent them from leaking out.

He wanted to transform the new imperial city into a paradise on earth.

Furthermore, it is necessary to gather spiritual energy and immortal energy in different places.

Defining the area was the most difficult part, which is why the city's construction was so slow.

Now that it's finally done, let's move the capital directly.

Another thing is that a mysterious organization has recently emerged, which has quite a few powerful members and has been causing trouble in various parts of Eastern Qin.

This greatly annoyed his subordinates, who reported it to him one after another.

We've been having people investigate this force for some time now.

"Your Highness, we have a lead. Based on our deductions, it's likely a remnant of the Immortal Sect. They've been secretly lurking all these years, seeking revenge. However, they probably know they're no match for us and only dare to cause trouble in the shadows."

As Liu Feng spoke, he took out a document and handed it to Qin Wu.

This document contains all the clues they have found.

"The Immortal Sect? What a bunch of rats! Find them with all your might. And since they could do these things, there must be some force secretly helping them. Order the Zhenwu Division to find them for me."

Qin Wu took the documents and read through the contents at a glance.

He gave the order in a cold voice.

Over the years, the Eastern Qin court has been hunting down members of the Immortal Sect, but these rats are endless.

They dare to make such a big move now; this is a complete provocation against Dong Qin and against him.

This is something he will absolutely not tolerate.

And it's a good opportunity to see if anyone dares to secretly collude with people from the Immortal Sect.

If so, then deal with them together.

These people are truly despicable. If they don't kill someone for a while, someone else will want to die.

"Yes, I will make arrangements now."

Liu Feng accepted the order and withdrew.

"Yushu, come in."

After Liu Feng left, Qin Wu called out to the outside.

"Your Majesty."

Yu Shu walked in.

"How are the preparations for the coronation going?"

Qin Wu inquired, and Qin Wu began to have Yu Shu and the other women prepare after the Eastern Qin Emperor handed him the imperial edict.

What he needed to prepare as the emperor who unified the region.

Especially the dragon robe and crown.

Not only his, but also Jiang Pingle's phoenix robe and jewelry.

These all required meticulous crafting, and for this purpose, a considerable number of weapon refiners were mobilized from the Qin clan.

The imperial seal also needs to be reforged, as the current seal is simply unable to withstand the flow of fortune.

A new jade seal had to be forged, and Qin Wu used a lot of the best materials for this purpose.

After more than a hundred years of refining, it is almost finished.

"Master, it's almost finished. It should be almost done once we complete the relocation of the capital."

Yu Shu lowered her head slightly and reported to Qin Wu.

"Will it take so long?"

Qin Wu frowned slightly.

This relocation of the capital may take a long time, possibly at least several years.

Even longer.

After all, this relocation of the capital is not as simple as it has been before.

It's not as simple as just moving the capital to the Central Continent; this time, the royal family needs to take everything with them.

We also need to take the national treasury with us. The distance is quite far this time, and there are too many items to send over using a teleportation array. The cost would be too high, an astronomical figure.

Moreover, several universities are also relocating this time, and the vast majority of officials will be leaving as well.

It can be said that the core of Eastern Qin was almost entirely moved from the Central Plains to the new capital.

"Yes, Master, there are some materials that, with our current methods of weapon refiners, would take a lot of time to dissolve, and when you add the refining time, it would take even longer."

Yu Shu explained.

There was one more thing she didn't say: Qin Wu's demands were too high.

It's already quite an achievement that those weapon refiners can complete it, but it won't be something they can finish in a short time.

"Alright, there's still time. We can finish refining it before the chosen date after the capital is moved."

Qin Wu nodded.

He was well aware that his expectations were too high.

He was still very clear about the skill level of the weapon refiners in Dongqin, after all, the time for training weapon refiners was too short.

Many weapon refiners learned by themselves by exploring the texts provided.

They still need a lot of time to mature.

Qin Wu did not blame them.

"Yes, I will urge them to hurry up."

Yu Shu accepted the order.

"Master, the dragon robe and phoenix robe are ready. Would you like to bring them over for your inspection?"

"The rest of the things are almost ready too."

After pausing for a moment, Yu Shu continued to ask questions.

"No need, these matters can be discussed with the Princess. You may leave now!"

Qin Wu said calmly.

He didn't value things like dragon robes very much.

He has other things to take care of now.

"Yes."

Yu Shu withdrew.

Next, Qin Wu summoned many officials of the second rank and above to discuss the relocation of the capital.

This relocation of the capital involves too many factors and requires the cooperation of everyone to complete it as quickly as possible.

After making the arrangements, Qin Wu went to the palace again to meet with the Eastern Qin Emperor and the Retired Emperor to discuss the relocation of the capital.

Half a month had passed by the time everything was arranged.

The news quickly spread throughout Xianyang City, and all the major powers began to make preparations.

Especially the families of officials.
