Chapter 1: Goal: Throne! (Ask for collection)

Next Chapter

The 100th anniversary of the founding of the Great Chu.

After the rise of the first generation of Chu kings, there have been four generations of kings, and he is now the sixth king of Chu reigning.

Chu is vast, with dozens of states, hundreds of cities, and more than 3 million households.

The soldiers of Chu are strong and strong, but the Eastern Qi, Southern Yan, and Northern Wei are on the side, and there is no ability to expand the territory.

Western Chu emphasized literature over military force, the people's livelihood was prosperous, and although the national strength was strong, under the leadership of such kings, it was inevitably a little weak, so the three kingdoms often invaded the border.

The king of Chu didn't care.

He is proficient in everything about land reparations, as long as he doesn't bother to write poems and writes, he asks for money!

This is not counting, the king of Chu loves the wind and snow very much, and he was in the early dynasty once a month.

In order to save worry, he actually set up a "regent" to hold the seal on behalf of the king and exercise the power of the king!

A few months ago, the 300,000 soldiers of the Qi army came to the Shanque Pass, and the Shanque Pass guard sent a letter to ask for help 17 times in a month, but the King of Chu also ignored it, and the regent did not know why he delayed sending troops, causing the Shanque Pass guard to fight alone for more than a month, and finally could not resist.

The Qi army broke through the pass, and within seven days, more than 40 cities were connected, and the Chu army was killed more than 200,000 and more than 100,000 were captured!

To this day, the generals of the Qi army camped more than 500 miles east of the splendid city of the capital of Chu, showing off their might.

The morale of the Chu army was completely lost, so the king of Chu ordered, and pro!

The indemnity was 30 million taels of silver, 27 cities were cut, and the rest of the money and materials were innumerable, and Princess Xu 16 went to Dongqi to marry the third prince of Qi, which was the eighth time that the king of Chu ordered peace!

——

"If you continue to play like this, Chu Guo will have to die, this cheap dad is afraid that he has a brain disease!"

Chu Yuqing stood at the head of the splendid city, watching the sixteenth sister's convoy leave, remembering the appearance of this sister's pear blossoms and rain just now, he sighed and shook his head, and smiled bitterly again and again.

I thought that I had crossed over and become the son of a king, and I could have no worries about food and clothing in this life, relying on my identity to bully men and women, and I would try all the blessings that I had not enjoyed in my previous life, and then die of old age in peace.

Why is this "father" so unlucky!

Chu Yuqing still remembers that at the beginning of the crossing, the national strength of Chu was strong, and it was the head of the four countries, before the death of "grandpa", the state of Qi had just been defeated, and the land was pushed east for a hundred miles!

Now that it has only been ten years, Xichu, the head of the four countries, has become the backyard of the other three countries.

No money?

Go to Chu to ask!

No food?

Go to Chu to ask!

Don't give?

If you don't give it, you will fight!

When the "father" ascended the throne, Chu Yuqing's "Jade Kingdom" mansion still had hundreds of servants and maidservants, thousands of guards, and a quota of 100,000 silver a year, but now?

Because of the continuous tightening of the war and the countless indemnities, Chu Yuqing's mansion alone has undergone tremendous changes, the number of servants and maidservants has been reduced to less than 100, and the number of guards has been directly reduced to 300, and the annual quota has changed from 100,000 silver to less than 10,000 taels today.

Chu Yu settled an account.

In the past ten years, the king of Chu has lost hundreds of millions of silver, grain, cloth, war horses, ores and other materials are countless, the original known as "a thousand cities" of Chu, but now it has shrunk by nearly three percent, and the national strength has dropped by at least half!

If it weren't for the fact that there was a nominal "Wu Dynasty" on top of the Four Kingdoms, he estimated that the Chu State would have been gone a few years ago......

A good hand of cards was played by his "father"!

"Your Highness, the regent sent someone to invite His Highness into the palace."

Someone came to report, Chu Yuqing suddenly frowned, why is the regent looking for himself?

This regent is Chu Yuqing's uncle, the younger brother of the contemporary King of Chu, because of the principle of "standing long", so it was his cheap father who took the throne.

But in fact, since the position of regent was "invented" by the king of Chu, the "king" of the state of Chu has almost changed.

"I see."

Although he didn't really want to contact this uncle, Chu Yuqing was also helpless, whether it was public or private, he had to go when summoned by the regent.

——

Palace.

Inside the Imperial Study.

This place has become the place of the regent, the king of Chu himself built a "listening to the rain pavilion", wrote poems and wrote poems in it, drank and had fun every day, and the imperial study had long since ceased to come.

"See the Regent."

Chu Yuqing arched his hand, and after the other party signaled that he didn't need to be polite, he straightened up and looked at his uncle.

"Yu'er."

Oh, by the way, Chu Yuqing's name is "Chu Yu".

The regent looked at him and smiled, "If I'm not mistaken, you're sixteen years old, right?" Grow up......"

Chu Yuqing frowned slightly, and replied, "It will be sixteen next month." ”

After speaking, he remembered the sixteenth sister who had just left, and this sister had just turned sixteen a few days ago!

There are a total of sixty-eight children under the knees of the king of Chu, but more than half of them are daughters, Chu Yuqing is the seventh prince, and there are nearly twenty younger brothers below, a total of seventeen sisters and twenty younger sisters......

This year alone, there are six!

"Well, sixteen, it's not too small."

Chu Yuan said with a smile: "Now that the state affairs are uneven, since Yu'er has grown up, she has to share the worries of the king, and the pressure on the treasury has been a bit big recently." ”

If you lose 30 million again, can the pressure not be great?

Chu Yuqing sneered in his heart, but he didn't show it, but asked, "What does Uncle Wang mean is to reduce the quota of the Jade Kingdom Mansion?" ”

"Not really." Chu Yuan said, "Your mansion quota is now only worth more than 10,000, and it won't be like a reduction anymore." ”

Chu Yuqing said: "Uncle Wang, forgive me, my nephew is stupid, I don't understand what Uncle Wang means, please speak up." ”

Chu Yuan stood up, walked around the desk, walked in front of him, patted him on the shoulder, and sighed.

"The Lan Yu Kingdom in the west has begun to invade again, and the pressure on the border side is also very strong, but the army of the Qi State has not retreated yet, and there is really no way to divide the energy to defend it, so I want to send you to the peace talks. As your seventh prince and the prince of the Jade Kingdom, you must be able to get enough attention, what do you think? ”

Chu Yuqing's brows jumped wildly.

He thought of his elder brother, the third brother Chu Yang, the brother who had the best relationship with him after the crossing.

Three years ago, Chu Yang also went to peace talks, but was killed by the rebels!

The king of Chu cried for several days when he listened to the rain pavilion, and the whole country mourned for March, and then ......

It's okay!

Anyway, the king of Chu didn't dare to send troops to fight anyone, he just wanted to live his life, as long as the enemy army had not reached Splendid City, he could continue to enjoy, it was sad that his son died, but didn't he still have dozens of children, in fact, there was not much loss.

And if I remember correctly, the third brother Chu Yang died at the hands of Lan Yuguo!

Lanyu Kingdom was only a small country, with a population of less than a million people, and when the Wu Dynasty was still there......

Not to mention the Wu Dynasty, even when Chu Yuqing's grandfather was in power, Lan Yuguo didn't dare to put a fart, but over the years, he has also kept up with the pace of the Three Kingdoms, after all, in today's Chu State, anyone can step on it!

If the world is compared to ancient China in Chu Yuqing's previous life, then the four kingdoms of Chu, Qi, Wei, and Yan are the kingdoms of the Han people, while the Lanyu countries are ethnic minorities such as Qiang and Di.

These guys are uneducated, they are completely white-eyed wolves who can't be raised, and no matter how much benefit they give, it's useless!

Chu Yuqing didn't know why Chu Yuan wanted him to go to peace talks, but he knew that if one was not careful, he might follow in the footsteps of the third brother, they had already killed a prince of Chu!

——

After walking out of the palace, Chu Yuqing's frowning brows loosened, and he exhaled heavily.

"It's ...... You're forcing me! ”

After all, he agreed to Chu Yuan, because he knew that if he refused today, Chu Yuan would have to wrestle with him in the future, and his convenience as a regent would be too great!

is just a jade prince, but he can't compete with it, and he is so ......

It's better to leave!

"Buzz!"

Chu Yuqing waved his big hand, and a pale golden translucent light curtain immediately appeared in front of him, which was visible only to him.

No longer hesitating when he made his decision, he reached out and tapped lightly on the light curtain.

Glancing back at the palace, he strode away without any nostalgia.

[The main quest has been accepted, goal: ascend to the throne!] 】
