Chapter 145: Shen Yu's Trap

"Jiang Yan was born to the concubine, that is, the queen's concubine. However, the status of the queen of Jiang Guo is not high. Queen Jiang's boudoir is famous for thousands of acres, and her mother's family is a giant merchant in Jinling, who makes spices. Shen Yu said with a smile without waiting for An Yixin to finish.

An Yixin couldn't help but be embarrassed when she heard Jiang Yan's mother's name. Flower Qianqing, for Mao is not called Hua Qiangu?

"Prince Jiang's father is called Jiang Dayu." Shen Yu misunderstood why An Yixin was smiling, and added another sentence.

An Yixin couldn't help but smile. No wonder last time in Yiyuan, Shen Yu didn't even put down the shrimp in his hand when he returned the gift to Prince Jiang, the child knew too much, and he really lacked reverence.

"How do you know that?" An Yixin asked.

Shen Yu raised his eyebrows, "Jiang Yan's own sister married Zhao Ziyan's eldest brother, and she gave birth to a son and a daughter before he ascended the throne, and she is now the empress of Zhao State. Shen Yu said, but sighed.

An Yixin was inexplicable and didn't understand what there was to sigh about. Isn't it good that a princess marries a prince and has children and is promoted to queen?

Shen Yu didn't explain, but pulled the topic back again.

"Jiang and Zhou have always been harmonious, but the founding emperor of Zhao, that is, Zhao Ziyan's father, was born as a military general, and after the peace talks with King Wu of Zhou, he fought a few battles with Zhou, and the two countries won and lost each other. It wasn't until Zhao Ziyan's father died nine years ago that the situation took a turn for the worse, and he has not attacked Zhou again. And King Wu of Zhou and Zhao Ziyan's father died almost at the same time, and Zhou Chang, who succeeded to the throne, was weak, and he still had no intention of going south, and the two kingdoms were peaceful. ”

Wusheng Mountain is in the territory of Zhou State, An Yixin listened to the little hairy child carved in pink and jade calling the name of the current saint, and said that he was weak, but he only shrugged his eyebrows.

In the winter, the emperor will be criticized behind closed doors, and he will not listen to others anyway.

"When Zhao Ziyan's father was still in power, the Hu people took advantage of the chaos, but they did not invade the Zhou State. On the one hand, the Lu Jiajun had to guard against the Hu people, on the other hand, to fight against the Zhao State, and on the other hand, to resist the enemy, and it was also a long time of hardship. ”

That's the old general's willingness, I don't believe that after King Wu of Zhou's bedroom conspiracy overnight, he trusted the old general so much, and would rather watch him fight on both sides, but didn't want to take the opportunity to train another southwest army out. An Yixin thought secretly. Obviously, the old general wanted to be a big one, so he would rather grit his teeth and endure hardship.

However, An Yixin only thought about this in her heart, but did not say it, after all, she is now eating and drinking Lu Mansion, and she is ready to scrape Lu Mansion at any time.

So keep your mouth shut.

"In short, when the days were the most difficult, King Wu of Zhou did his best to ensure that this strongest army in the country was absolutely loyal to him, not only renamed the Northwest Army as the Lu Family Army, but also set up eight cities and two passes in the northwest at the suggestion of the old general, and all the cities and passes within a radius of 100 miles were under the jurisdiction of the Lu Family Army."

The old general is really an old fox, well, no, he was still a young fox when he invited favors. An Yixin gave the old general a thumbs up in her heart.

But then again, it seems that the old general's loyalty to King Wu of Zhou is also average, not to mention that it has been ten years since King Wu of Zhou died, and the old feelings are scattered, if the scumbag father wants to usurp the throne in the future, Princess Jiayi is Zhou Chang's own sister, but the scumbag father is the son-in-law of the Lu Mansion, and I don't know which side the Lu Mansion will stand on?

It's all about my fart...... An Yixin stopped thinking and didn't bother to think about it anymore.

"The current Zhou Emperor Zhou Chang has not changed the Wuwang rule after succeeding to the throne, but because Zhao is unable to fight again, the Lu family army is all stationed in the northwest military city, each military city is paid 100,000 taels a year, and the spoils captured in the battle with the Hu people are also owned by the military city, in addition to the taxes collected inside and outside the military city also belong to the military city, although it is not much, but every New Year's holiday, it is enough to drink wine and add a dish. The most important thing is that there is almost no expenditure in the military city, except for the military rations, military uniforms, and ordnance directly supplied by the state treasury, the purchase of the rest of the materials is all made by the Lu family army himself, and it is verified and reimbursed to the national treasury every six months.......

Seeing An Yixin's eyes widen the more he listened, Shen Yu smiled and blinked, indicating that there was no need to be so surprised.

"How do you know...... An Yixin changed his words halfway through speaking, "Your senior brother ......"

Shen Yu nodded, "He will be a general in the future, not if he has high martial arts, Lu Yunsheng didn't say it before, but now of course he has to tell him this." ”

"Then your senior brother ......"

"He's not a fool, he doesn't make a king-eight-egg if he has money!" Shen Yuman said nonchalantly.

That's right, too.

As long as he stands in that position, the cold-faced god will not only make money, but also be a fox.

"In order to ensure the loyalty of the Lu family, the emperor of the Zhou State simply allowed the general to claim the throne in the northwest." An Yixin said with emotion.

Isn't it just the king, the general died, and the new general was not appointed by the emperor, but by the Lu family's lineage to compete for the commandery, in fact, isn't it self-elected? Obviously, it is to divide the territory and provide a lot of money.

Of course, it is not for nothing, the Lu family army also has to fight against the Hu people and protect the country and the country.

The money Lu Jiajun earned, but he bought it in exchange for his life.

It can't be said that the emperor of Zhou is a wretch, it can only be said that the Lu family is too powerful.

The army is mighty, and the emperor does not dare to blow up.

Speaking of the Lu Mansion's way of making money, Shen Yu and An Yixin were silent for a moment very tacitly. Shen Yucai continued. "After Zhou Chang ascended the throne, although there was no change in the precedent of King Wu of Zhou, and he himself was mediocre in virtue and talent, he still did a very amazing thing in the past ten years. He single-handedly promoted An Shouhe, who has the blood of the imperial family of the Great Calendar, and eliminated objections a year ago and appointed An Shouhe as the prime minister. The royal family of the Great Calendar declined, and was later washed by the blood of King Wu of Zhou, and the royal family, which was supposed to disappear silently, walked out of the ashes with another prime minister. ”

When Shen Yu said this, the big black and white eyes flashed, and he glanced at An Yixin quickly.

An Yixin let out an 'oh', "His Majesty the Emperor takes a fancy to An Shouhe, maybe because he married the daughter of the Lu Mansion. ”

"I don't know what happened to Lu Rongjin back then, he married An Shouhe." Seeing An Yixin answer with a calm face, Shen Yu quietly gossiped again.

An Yixin lowered her head and took a sip of tea.

She didn't expect Shen Yu to say so much before, just to make her relax her vigilance, thinking that he was just talking about history, but waiting here to hook her, she was just aroused by him.

The family style of the Lu Mansion is so unrestrained, and the scumbag father is bent on clinging, if he wants to take this shortcut, what else is impossible? An Yixin thought silently. The scumbag father is handsome and beautiful, and he has a bookish atmosphere, and his gestures are as warm as jade. The speed of promotion shows that he is scheming, good-looking, scheming, and of course, good at flirting with girls.

Although An Yixin didn't remember that he had tried his best to please the Li family, the Li family still waited for him for so many years.

He must have tried his best to please Lu Rongjin, right? It is said that they have a very good relationship with each other.

Well, I don't know if Lu Rongjin used my balm? An Yixin thought secretly.

Shen Yu looked at An Yixin, the expression on the baby's fat little face changed, and he didn't know what he was thinking. (To be continued.) )
