Chapter 344: The Princess's Wedding
Just when the strategy of the western expedition was set, Su Chen's third son, Suning, told him through Ying'er that he wanted to follow the army to participate in this war. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Hearing this news, Su Chen was not surprised, now among his sons, the eldest and second have made achievements in Jingzhou and North Korea respectively, and they have been crowned king by him one after another, it is conceivable that the other sons can't hold back.
Although the third Suning was born to Ying'er, and the second Su Mu is a mother, but the personality is diametrically opposite, the third child does not like to read, but likes to practice martial arts, at a young age, martial arts are the most powerful of all his sons, has broken through the real martial arts realm, can be regarded as a first-class master.
Since he had this idea, Su Chen didn't stop him, and the next day, he summoned Su Ning alone and asked, "Ling Si, have you thought about it?" You must know that the battlefield is ruthless, and your mother is not worried about letting you go to the battlefield. ā
"Father and Emperor Rong, the child is a martial artist, if you can't serve the battlefield, stay in Luoyang City, it is really a waste of the child's fighting spirit, so many years, although the child has participated in too big a war, but in the Eagle Yang Mansion has also learned some fur, and now the Western Expedition is a good opportunity for the child to realize his ambitions." Suning said excitedly.
"Hehe, good boy, it's a bit like me, let's talk about it, are you all about it?" Su Chen looked at him with a smile after speaking.
Hearing this, Suning really smiled and replied: "Father's eyes are like torches, it is true, the child has made an appointment with Zhang Hu, Zhang Bao, Tai Shiheng, Dian Man, Xu Yi, Tian Pengzu, and Sun Lang, and they are ready to join the team of the Western Expedition together." ā
"Hmm." Su Chen responded, he didn't expect that Suning would actually wipe out all these young generals of the younger generation, his Wenchen military generals, their heirs are all studying in Yanjing Academy, and his own sons are also in Yanjing Academy, over time, these meritorious children will unite around several sons, most of them are based on age level.
Su Jin is older, so he is surrounded by Zhuge Liang, Guan Xing, and Xu Gai, Su Mu is a little younger, and he is surrounded by Sun Quan, Sun Yi, and Zhuge Jun.
However, he did not hit his son's enthusiasm and said: "Since you are so confident, I will also promise you, but in the army, there is a set of discipline, although you are my son, but when you enter the army, you are an ordinary sergeant, I will later instruct General Wenyuan to treat you equally." ā
"Thank you, Father!" After getting Su Chen's approval, Suning finally breathed a sigh of relief.
After Suning went down, Su Chen felt that he had cared too little about his sons and daughters over the years, especially his eldest princess, who was so old that she had not been married yet, and it was almost inconceivable to be in the Han Dynasty, but it was true, the eldest princess Su Ying was above the top from her small eyes, and few people could enter her eyes, so she had been single until now.
Thinking about this matter, Su Chen came to Cai Yan's palace and cared about his daughter's marriage, Cai Yan heard him talk about it, but said with a smile: "Your Majesty doesn't know, our eldest princess seems to have a sweetheart." ā
"Oh? Who is so honored? can actually get her love, you must know that our princess has been spoiled by the queen since she was a child, and she is not afraid of the sky, as a daughter, she doesn't like red makeup and loves arms, so that she is still single at such an age, you must know that when you are as old as her, you already have Lingyun. ā
Speaking of this, Su Chen was depressed for a while, but he also knew that this daughter admired his father since she was a child, and once said that she must find a man like her father before she was willing to marry, his eldest brother has done very well outside these years, and the relationship between the two brothers and sisters is very good, although Ling Yun is leading the troops outside, he often writes to her, which also makes her eyes more and more above the top, if it weren't for her mother's refusal, I'm afraid that she would have been ready to go to the battlefield a long time ago.
Although her mother did not allow it, she still formed a team of 500 people, named the Women's Army, one by one under her training really looked good, and later even Sun Xiaomei also joined in, which allowed her to find a sense of belonging, and under repeated begging, her Women's Army was allowed to expand to 2,000 people, training soldiers in the palace all day long, and properly looking like a general, otherwise he would not have given her the title of a princess of Zhenguo.
Speaking of this, Cai Yan was in a good mood, and even started a dumb riddle and asked: "Your Majesty, why don't you guess, the concubine can remind me that this person is a general in the army entrusted by His Majesty." ā
"A general in the army?" Thinking about it like this, Su Chen couldn't guess that there seemed to be no general in the army who was similar in age to Su Ying, except for ......
"Could it be Lu Xun?" Lu Xun is older than her, Lu Xun has been busy with military affairs all these years, and he is still single now, this is almost impossible, you must know that there are three unfilial pieties, and there is no queen, Su Chen has also mentioned this question to Lu Xun more than once, but he refused, he didn't expect this to happen.
"Your Majesty guessed right, in fact, the two of them have already had a good impression of each other a few years ago, but I am afraid that Your Majesty will not agree, so I have not let my mother, know, now that Lu Xun has been named Xu Guogong by His Majesty, and has also become a hot person in the Great Yan Kingdom, Ying'er may feel that the time is ripe now, so she tactfully told me about this mother, otherwise I will still be kept in the dark."
It's really Lu Xun, for Lu Xun, Su Chen is very satisfied, Lu Xun can be regarded as a humble gentleman, he has been in the military aircraft for so many years, and when he is around, whether it is dealing with the world or anything else, it is amazing, since the two are happy, then he has nothing to say, after all, he has finally solved her old problem.
"Since they are in love with each other, then leave this matter to the queen to do, I also like Bo Yan very much, this expedition to the west, originally considered that Bo Yan is not qualified enough, but I didn't expect that there would be this one, maybe it is the fate of God."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Soon, the news that the princess of the town was married to Lu Xun, the prince of the country, spread, and the Lu family can be regarded as the gate lord of the family, and it has not insulted the royal identity, especially Lu Xun himself, who has been named the prince of the country in less than a year, this is the youngest prince of the Great Yan Kingdom, and the future is immeasurable.
What's even more difficult is that now that Lu Xun has become a colt, the rise of the Lu family has become unstoppable, and after the news spread, I don't know how many people have broken through the threshold of the Lu family.
The wedding of the eldest princess was held very strongly, but because of the westward expedition of the army, although it was heavy, it was not extravagant and wasteful, on the day of the wedding, almost the entire Luoyang City people were bathed in joy, Su Chen even ordered that the Wuyuan Chamber of Commerce in Luoyang City was promoted at a 50% discount on the same day, and the people were happy.
Su Shuang is also a clever person, he not only let the Wuyuan Chamber of Commerce get a 50% discount, but also ordered that wherever there are shops in the Wuyuan Chamber of Commerce, a three-day flowing water banquet will be held, so that all subjects can share this great celebration.
In this way, the entire Dayan Kingdom is full of festive atmosphere, and all states and counties have sent valuable gifts to the princess's wedding, looking at the four hundred years of the entire Han Dynasty, there has never been such a grand wedding celebration, you must know that the three-day flowing banquet almost cost the Wuyuan Chamber of Commerce 100 million money, but these are insignificant in front of the princess's wedding, and now the income brought by the Wuyuan Chamber of Commerce every year has almost exceeded the treasury, so Su Chen has to pay money and grain to the household department from time to time.
After the establishment of the Great Yan Kingdom, Su Chen opened the Five Yuan Money Village, and improved the currency, he destroyed the five baht coins of different quality in various places, and re-minted copper coins, silver coins and gold coins, the front of the gold and silver coins is Su Chen's head, and the north is the word of the Great Yan Kingdom.
Most of the ordinary people will only use copper coins, at most silver coins, gold coins are mainly used for bulk commodity transactions, at the same time, Wuyuan money village also launched a credit currency silver ticket, silver ticket is a silver coin or gold coin bill, can be exchanged in other places, greatly facilitating business transactions, Wuyuan money village also made a lot of money.
In addition to Qian Zhuang, he also encouraged the development of industry and commerce and activated the economy of the Great Yan Kingdom, which is why it only took four years to recuperate, and Su Chen had the strength to calm Xiliang.
After Lu Xun married the princess, Su Chen asked him to serve as the Minister of the Navy Yamen, replacing Zhou Yu to deal with naval affairs, the navy is a very important force in his vision, over the years, the navy has been self-sufficient, and there is a lot of surplus, so that the ministers of the Military Aircraft Department and the cabinet have seen the huge profits of the ocean, but this is not enough, what he needs is a fleet that can go to the sea, just like Zheng He went to the Western Ocean, but with the fleet there is also a caravan, he wants to take the lead in the Three Kingdoms to open the prelude to the colonial war.
This is not difficult to achieve, but it will not be implemented until the Quartet is pacified, and in the future, there are two directions for the expansion of the Great Yan Kingdom, one is to the south, to the South Sea, and the other is to the west, to develop the Western Regions. As for the north, the Far East is a very cold place, and with the present conditions, it is impossible to develop to the north.
The 400,000 troops of the Great Yan Kingdom marched westward, after Ma Chao got the news, he was very uneasy, he sent the eight strong generals to garrison in Michi, to intercept Sun Ce's vanguard troops, but Sun Ce has hardly participated in the war over the years, and finally got a battle, and he was very excited.
After Ma Chao got the news of the defeat of the eight strong generals, he decided to go to meet Sun Ce in person for a while, one is the Jiangdong Xiaobawang, and the other is Xiliang Jin Ma Chao, Sun Ce's martial arts have made rapid progress over the years, and few people in the army are his opponents, for Ma Chao, a rising star, Sun Ce is very willing to use the big gun in his hand to teach Ma Chao how to behave.
