Chapter 98
The eighth prince Nanchen was so famous that he was even more favored by the emperor. He even wanted to abolish the prince from the Queen of the Yuan Dynasty several times and change him into a prince, but unfortunately, he did not have time to implement it, and he met the country.
In the year of the country's subjugation, the Nanchen clan was almost completely wiped out by the Great Zhou soldiers. Only the eighth prince, who was only thirteen at the time, led the 20,000 remnants out of the capital and headed south. Finally, he gained a firm foothold in the south. Of course, the main reason for gaining a firm foothold was the Beishuo invasion, Dazhou dispatched soldiers and horses urgently, and Pei Ling went to the north.
But it is inseparable from the intelligent response of the eighth prince Chen Xuan. In fact, at the beginning of Nanchen's attack, he had appeared to the emperor and asked to send an envoy to contact Beishuo to jointly attack Dazhou.
It is a pity that Emperor Nanchen was mediocre and did not adopt this suggestion, and he became a subjugated slave.
After the death of Nanchen, many clansmen died in martyrdom, including the prince who had always been lonely, but the Emperor didn't have the guts to commit suicide. It is estimated that he still wanted to continue living in the capital of Zhou Dynasty.
However, he was hit repeatedly, melancholy became ill, coupled with the stimulation of the spoiled concubine suicide, could not afford to be sick, and died on the way to the north.
After retreating to the south, Chen Xuan quickly proclaimed himself emperor, and while leading the troops to stand firm, while contacting the local barbarians, scattered the gold and silver goods, and made friends with powerful men. The soldiers and horses of the Great Zhou have organized several expeditions in the past ten years, but they have never wiped out this force.
Although the Nanchen Remnant Party's territory was shrinking day by day under the continuous suppression of the Great Zhou soldiers and horses, from the original six counties to only two counties still under control. But they are just like Xiaoqiang who can't beat him, and they also get through the follow-up of Wuli Kingdom. Chen Xuan married the daughter of Lord Wuli Kingdom. After the old king died of illness, he killed several princes in one fell swoop and became the new king. remember when was in the palace last year, heard that Wuli Kingdom’s internal affairs were unstable, and opposition forces were one after another. Now can send people to Dazhou Capital to engage in trouble and rain, presumably internal affairs have stabilized.
Qin Nuo asked himself, if he encountered the tragedy of subjugation at the age of thirteen, he would really not be able to achieve such a tough level, let alone a comeback.
The internal affairs of the small court of Nanchen, under the leadership of Chen Xuan, have always been extremely stable. Maybe the enemy is pressing the land, but everyone is united. Many of Nanchen's nobles and talented people who were unwilling to subdue the country tried their best to run to the south to serve this small court. Therefore, although Chen Xuan's court was small, it was full of talents. Over the years, it was a real success against the attacks of the Great Zhou. A few commanders.
Huo Youjuan expressed disdain for Qin Nuo's approval. "Perhaps this person has great talents, but it is too cruel to be a person."
"Only because he can kill his wife who shares the ups and downs, he is cruel. Fortunately, the princess of Wuli Kingdom fell in love with him at first sight, and for him even his own fathers and brothers are willing to betray."
Kill your wife? Qin Nuo blinked. According to the information he saw, Chen Xuan's wife was the daughter of the Bai family of the Nanchen family. The Bai family is one of the top families in Nanchen, with outstanding military service and unparalleled loyalty.
The head of the family was the governor of the Nanchen Navy at the time. He was killed on the battlefield when the country was destroyed, leaving only a pair of young children, who followed Chen Xuan and fled to the south. What surprised Qin Nuo was that these children were also twin brothers and sisters, just like himself and Qin Zhi.
Soon after proclaiming the emperor, Chen Xuan established the Bai family as the queen.
What caught Qin Nuo’s attention was not the white queen, but her brother Bai Guangxi, who was originally a student of Chen Xuan, and fled to the south with him. Although young, he is the star of the world who has risen rapidly in the past ten years. One. Has defeated the soldiers and horses conquered by the Great Zhou several times. When Pei Ling was chatting, she also mentioned this matter, saying that Bai Guangxi was born at an untimely time, and she felt pity.
Because this person has been killed in battle.
That was a drastic change in the battlefield of Nanchen. Four years ago, Southern Defence General's Residence in Great Zhou mobilized a full 200,000 troops, thinking of annihilating Nanchen's remnant forces in one fell swoop, seizing the land of three counties in a row, and falling into its capital. Unfortunately, it fell short. Chen Xuan escaped.
It was because at that time Bai Guangxi led the army to stand firm, and bought Chen Xuan time to escape. Although he died on the battlefield in the end.
After that, Chen Xuan took the little court and fled to the border of the extreme south. Soon, the White Queen died of illness quickly. Chen Xuan married the princess of Wuli Kingdom and entered Wuli Kingdom from then on.
Huo Youjuan is so contemptuous of Chen Xuan, is she suspecting that the death of the White Queen was too coincidental?
"Fleeing all the way, it is normal for a weak woman to die of illness." Qin Nuo said.
"The White Queen is not a weak woman. According to the information I have read before, this white queen is proficient in martial arts, has a good bow and horse, and has always been in good health. How could the emperor not die, she died first." Huo Youjuan Not convinced.
"I heard that after Nanchen's imperial imperial court fled to Wuli Kingdom, the princess fell in love with Chen Xuan at first sight and Feiqing did not marry. And Chen Xuan rushed to request Wuli Kingdom's shelter and rescue."
Qin Nuo didn't speak. It was really difficult to judge the matter. It is undeniable that the White Queen died very cleverly, leaving a good place for Chen Xuan to marry Princess Uli.
But just after the brother desperately decided for himself, he kept his foundation, turned his head and killed his sister and his wife. Is Chen Xuan really so vicious?
The two spoke briefly. It was getting late, and Huo Youjuan retired.
On the moon, Qin Nuo walked out of the Beginning-of-Creation Palace.
At a glance, Fang Yuan was standing on the corridor outside the temple, looking up at the sky.
The cold moonlight shone all over the body, drawing a clear outline.
Hearing the footsteps coming from behind, Fang Yuan turned around and fell to his knees.
"No need to be polite." Qin Nuo smiled.
Seeing Fang Yuan standing up, Qin Nuo suddenly thought, Fang Yuan's resume seemed to be Bai Guangxi's subordinate before?
I wanted to ask something about this young general who even Pei Ling praised, but after thinking about it, still don't poke heart. He wished that Fang Yuan had completely lost his memory of the past.
Looking at the emperor with a confused smile.
Fang Yuan:? ? ?
"Uh, in fact, these few people have been discussing the matter of conquering Nanchen." Qin Nuo regretted it after speaking, and really wanted to delete the sentence just now!
Fang Yuan's expression was flat: "The minister knows."
For such an important matter, he followed Qin Nuo in and out every day, and of course he would hear the wind.
Without waiting for Qin Nuo to speak, Fang Yuan suddenly knelt down again: "The emperor, the minister asked to be transferred to the eastern camp for training."
Qin Nuo was startled: "What?"
Fang Yuan repeated it again.
"No!" Qin Nuo's first reaction was to refuse. He immediately understood why Fang Yuan would ask for such a request. Once he started a war with Nanchen, his position next to the emperor as Nanchen would be even more embarrassing. I was afraid that the situation of opposition from the officials a while ago would happen again.
But after thinking about it, Qin Nuo's second reaction still refused.
"I'm not allowed." There are not many credible and usable people around him, and he doesn't want Fang Yuan to leave.
"Well, I am selfish." Qin Nuo admitted readily.
"emperor……"
The refusal of the request seemed to be expected, Fang Yuan still had a gentle expression, got up and stood aside in accordance with Qin Nuo's instructions.
Qin Nuo felt restless.
He really didn't want to fight Nanchen so quickly, and all his plans were disrupted. Three and a half years later, there is still Beishuo's troubled enemy.
Chen Xuan, Chen Xuan, you can't be your Wuli Kingdom king, and you can be friends in the future. have to do something...
***********
Within Wuli Kingdom.
Although it is winter, this country in the extreme south is still hot.
Although Wuli Kingdom is a country of Nanban, it is strong among the Nanyang countries. It is Nanchen's vassal country for generations. Nanchen treats him with courtesy. Many years ago, he married a princess. Among the royal families, there are often concubines from the Wuli Kingdom clan.
The palace is made of piles of pure white marble, carved with rich patterns, and decorated with textures of gold and gems, dazzling.
The lush green plants are full of vitality, with large golden red flowers blooming in the middle. This is the Tuluo flower that is a specialty of Wuli Kingdom, which is very popular among local powers.
In front of the steps of the palace, there is a huge pool, which is full of clear water, and a tail of golden and red swimming fish is shaking its head and tail, which is very smart.
Before, this place was not so peaceful.
The flowing blood almost dyed the entire pool red, and the floor was covered with fragments of limbs. The corpses of palace people were covered with white steps, and many nobles were mixed in it.
However, after just a few months, the place was renovated, the pool was restored to the bottomless purity, and the marble pillars splashed with blood were also completely new.
The new king will naturally have a new atmosphere.
To this new master of Wuli Kingdom, he moved up and down at first, and even the people were indignant and unconvinced. However, Chen Xuan put down the local rebellion with a thunderous hand, and put down the old enemy of Wuli Kingdom, Myanmar and the country. After begging for mercy, the ruling and the opposition's evaluation of him gradually changed.
Today, the folks of Wuli Kingdom have begun to praise the monarch's extraordinary talents and the handsome face like a god. Within the imperial court, the fact that the dynasty changed was gradually accepted.
Of course, if the new queen can give birth to a prince with the noble blood of the two dynasties as soon as possible, everything will be perfect.
Suddenly a white jade vase was thrown into the pool, splashing water splashing wildly.
The maids at the front pillar held their breath one by one, trying to suppress their own existence to the lowest level. Just because their master is angry.
"Has the king come over yet?" A woman stood up angrily, her face was beautiful, her complexion was fair, her dark brown hair was curled up, her cheeks were hanging down, and the pearls and gems between her hair shone. With a seductive luster. But no amount of seductive luster can match her bright and bright eyes.
Because of her anger, there was a rosy glow on her cheeks, adding more gorgeous color.
The princess of Wuli Kingdom is also the queen of today. She is only sixteen or seventeen years old. It is the most beautiful time for a girl. She has sent people to the main hall three times to invite her husband, but she has not seen anyone.
"Queen, His Majesty the King is dealing with government affairs, indicating that no one is allowed to disturb." Finally, the palace maid whispered back. Not long after he came to power, Chen Xuan had quickly controlled the entire court, both the former and the harem.
The new queen of Wuli Kingdom angrily threw a vase into the water again. I don't understand why my words are becoming useless, and my husband is becoming colder towards himself.
The palace people did not dare to speak. When he used to be a princess, this highness was known for his innocence and innocence. Who knew he would become so irritable and irritable now. Just as before, no one could imagine that this princess could unite several ministers and collude with the foreign army, taking advantage of the king's serious illness, killing all the elder brothers who were fighting for the throne, and then boarding with her husband. On the throne.
Although there is also the role of the queen supporting her only daughter, it is unexpected that the princess, who was originally a simple and lively princess, will become so extreme and cruel.
Maybe that person has such magical powers. Let any woman change for him.
****
Inside the hall, the heavy eaves cut off the bright sunshine outside, and it looked dim and cold.
But no matter how cold the air is, it can't compare to the face of the man after the case.
He was holding a piece of letterhead in his hand, which was a secret report that just came from Dazhou Capital.
A bit of news that made him piercing!
Finally, he raised his head. The moment he raised his head, it seemed that there was light illuminating the whole hall, which was brighter than the sun outside. As long as he saw the young man in front of him, no one would deny this.
It was a face without any blemishes. Anyone who is picky will recognize the peerless elegance of the person in front of him. If there is any regret, it may be that his lips are a little thin, regardless of shape or color. Generally speaking, such people are usually less affectionate. But such a light color, appearing on this beautiful and thrilling face, will only give people infinite compassion.
Just like the gorgeous woman next to him, staring at the beloved with a scorching gaze full of love.
She is plump and slim, with dark brown hair and naughty curls. Even her appearance is similar to the girl in the atrium, but more mature and attractive.
"Chen Lang, what is the bad news?" Seeing her beloved frown, she asked gently. The language used is the Central Plains Mandarin.
"It's bad news." Chen Xuan closed the letterhead.
"Is it the person we sent to execute the poisoning plan?"
"No, the epidemic is still prevalent." Chen Xuan said coldly.
Because the two places are far apart, the information that has been sent is many days ago, Nanchen's disease layout is in full swing, and the fact that the capital of Dazhou has found a solution has not been passed on to Wuli Kingdom.
"I just got news from an old person. I remembered some old times." Chen Xuan's face showed an indescribable expression, like nostalgia, like pity, and hate.
What old person? The woman was full of anxiety and wanted to ask, but saw that he looked wrong and did not dare to ask.
After hesitating, Chen Xuan glanced at her coldly and said, "The Queen Mother first go back and rest."
After a pause, he said: "Remember to take away the noisy one outside."
The glamorous woman is Wuli Kingdom's current queen mother Ulya. She was born in a noble family of Wuli Kingdom, and her ancestors were married to Nanchen Xungui. She is a famous beauty in Wuli Kingdom. After his wife died of illness, the king married her as the new queen with grand etiquette. To him in all kinds of grace, for her, even the previous sons have been criticized continuously.
It is a pity that Urya has been in the palace for many years and only gave birth to one daughter. Seeing the old king's river go down, his body is dying. He simply joined forces with his daughter and son-in-law, and drove the family of the seriously ill old king to an end, and then ushered in a new monarch.
Not only for the authority in his hand, but also because of the love at first sight for the young man in front of him. Even if it is because of this rebellious relationship, it can't be considered. Anyway, the land of the barbarians does not pay attention to these. And heard that even in the harem of the Central Plains, there are blood relatives who serve a husband together.
Compared with such a handsome person and such a noble blood, the Wuli Kingdom King Line is simply a bunch of stupid pigs. How could he watch him bow his head to those stupid pigs?
Ulya didn't mind Chen Xuan's indifference, and got up obediently, "Then I'll go back to the palace first. Mi'er has a straightforward character, don't blame her."
After Ulya left, the hall quickly fell silent.
Chen Xuan couldn't suppress it anymore, he lowered his head, buried his face in his hands, and his body trembled.
Why, I hope you will hear of your death when you are alive! And when I thought you were dead, you were not dead, and you appeared in the palace of Da Zhou.
Do you play polo? Very happy, isn't it?
The days when the two played together in Nanchen Palace...
Yes, he can never play polo anymore, he is disabled!
Chen Xuan stood up trembling, but because she was too anxious to get up, her figure shook and she had to support the table with her arms.
On the day when the country was destroyed, his leg was injured and an arrow pierced his knee. Although the rescue was timely, he still left a hidden danger.
Every day I walk, I can feel the pain of my knees. But he is a very strong person. In the past ten years, he has worked hard day and night and restrained himself. Now that he is walking, he is no different from ordinary people.
Only today, he didn't care about his manners anymore, hovering quickly, staggering and bewildered.
In this cold place, he felt fear and loneliness that he had never had before.
There seemed to be something in his chest tearing and burning, making him wish to die immediately to get free...
