As soon as she mentioned this, the eldest princess's pretty face sank, and her anger remained. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Eastern Qin envoy?" Shen Ning didn't hear this term for the first time, Chu Shaobai also mentioned it once, but she never took it to heart.

At this time, when he saw the angry look on the eldest princess's face, he took it to heart.

She searched in the memory of the original owner, but vaguely knew that in addition to the Western Chu Kingdom, there were three other countries in the era she had traveled from.

Among them, the Eastern Qin State was the most powerful.

It's just that what does this have to do with the Western Chu Kingdom?

While comforting the eldest princess, she asked the eldest princess about the ins and outs of the matter.

As soon as the eldest princess mentioned the past, she was filled with righteous indignation, gushing, holding her hand, and saying that it was an hour.

It happened twelve years ago, before Mochuan ascended the throne and became emperor.

At that time, the two countries of Eastern Qin and Western Chu were evenly matched, tied for two heroes, and although Eastern Li was eyeing Western Chu, Western Chu was also ill-intentioned towards Eastern Qin.

The war between the two countries is on the verge of breaking out.

At that time, the Western Chu Emperor was ambitious and wanted to annex the Eastern Qin Dynasty and dominate the world.

In order to realize the grand cause, he personally led the troops and personally drove the Eastern Qin.

Unexpectedly, in the most critical battle of Baishui Pass, the Western Chu soldiers led by him were defeated miserably.

Not only was the whole army annihilated, but even he, the emperor of the Western Chu State, was taken captive by the Eastern Qin State, thus becoming a prisoner of the Eastern Qin State.

The emperor was exiled, the Western Chu State was in danger, the country could be destroyed at any time, the people were displaced, and they became a subordinate country of the Eastern Qin, and since then they have fallen into dire straits.

The ministers have no leader, and the Western Chu State cannot be without a king for a day.

It was the Empress Dowager Zhou who stepped forward at this critical moment, brought together hundreds of civil and military officials, and tried to support Mochuan, who was the cousin of the first emperor, to ascend the throne and become emperor, and put this heavy burden and responsibility on her teenage son.

I have to say that Empress Dowager Zhou is a great woman with great foresight, and she insisted on supporting her own son Mochuan to ascend the throne, not because she was greedy for glory and wealth, but to stabilize the military and people's hearts of the Western Chu State.

At that time, Chu Shaoyang was still young, and as the son of the first emperor, if he was called emperor, Eastern Qin could unscrupulously threaten Western Chu with the life of the first emperor.

This is also one of the reasons why the ministers strongly opposed Chu Shaoyang's accession to the throne.

The new emperor ascended the throne, and the people of Western Chu were settled.

Next, the Empress Dowager Zhou entrusted Shen Ning's father, General Shen, and sent him to lead the elite soldiers and strong generals under his command to meet the Eastern Qin army.

General Shen won more with less, fought a beautiful turnaround battle in the battle of Baishui Pass, and then forced the Eastern Qin army to the border in one go.

Just when General Shen was about to continue the march, go straight to the hinterland of Eastern Qin, and welcome the first emperor back to the court, things suddenly changed.

Just between the confrontation between the two armies, the Eastern Qin State suddenly tied the Western Chu Emperor to the front of the battle, and Yang Qian asked the Western Chu State to retreat, and not a single soldier or pawn was left, otherwise, if one person is left, one of the emperor's hands will be cut off, and if two people are left, the emperor will be cut off a pair of feet!

Although General Shen was ordered by the Empress Dowager Zhou, he was also fiercely loyal to the first emperor, how could he let the first emperor be cut off by the enemy in front of him and give him his life?

He did not hesitate to withdraw from the army.

Then the Eastern Qin State put forward an even more rude request, they wanted Western Chu to pay tribute to Eastern Qin every year in the future, the amount was huge, and it was almost necessary to exhaust half of the national strength of Western Chu every year to achieve it.
