Chapter 66

When Empress Chen woke up, she saw Sima Yan and couldn't help but sob.

Seeing that the opportunity could not be missed, Sima Yan hurriedly whispered: "Why should the queen be excited? Just think about it, if my eldest brother wants to pass on the throne to Sima Dan's distant relative, why don't I pass it on to Chen'er's nephew? I've been loved by my eldest brother since I was a child, and he will never want to do this. But now that he has a son, he will definitely pass on the throne to his own flesh and blood, in this way, wouldn't he finally cheapen the slut surnamed Wang? Why don't we do it sooner? ”

"What's the solution? It's too late now! ”

"As long as the queen can be of the same heart with me, there must still be a chance, there are rumors in our family, Taoguang is obscure, and it is said that one peach kills two soldiers, now that I think about it, the prince is high and powerful, far away, and he is not threatened by us, and the eldest son of the emperor is deeply protected, I am afraid that very people can move what intentions, but ......"

"But as long as these two tigers fight...... Hum! The ghost knows, is your Wang family a nostril of gas? ”

"How can there be no clan on the side? As long as the queen ...... The queen should not think that with the crown prince as her adopted son, she can understand this truth as she does now, plus the union of our Wang family and the Chen family, wouldn't the world be in the palm of your hand? ”

"The Chen family and the Wang family jointly ......" The queen thought thoughtfully, and suddenly remembered that the prince was her adopted son, which may not be without opportunities, and the alliance with the Wang family could also be done randomly, and it may not necessarily be necessary to put all the eggs in one basket.

******

Wang Guifei is also from the Luoyang Wang family, and her brother Wang Dungui is the Marquis of Wei, who controls the feudal town and is a powerful figure in the court, but he has always been at odds with the patriarch Wang Dao in the family, although the two have the same grandfather, but Wang Dun is more of a young Zhuang faction who repeatedly wants to suppress Wang Dao by virtue of his momentum in the court.

Wang Bing, the son of Wang Dao, is the husband of Sima Yan, and his son Wang Chen will also take over the patriarch in the future, so if Queen Chen can get the full support of the elders of the Chen family, the so-called Wang-Chen alliance can control the world.

The Chen family, like the Xie family, has its strength rooted in the south, so it was only after a day late that they received the information that the royal concubine gave birth to the emperor's eldest son, although this cannot be said to be an accident.

For many years, the Chen family has relied on the queen in the palace or the military power in the Central Plains, and the source of its strength is the strength of its private soldiers and the heavy profits of business.

Internally, it has long departed from the traditional Central Plains clan management model, which the Chen family calls the "Roman model".

First of all, the Chen family will recruit all kinds of talents regardless of a qiē, and marry through guò, these talents are willing to be used for their purposes, according to legend, Sima Cheng, the master of Zhongxing in the Jin Dynasty, is actually the representative of the Chen family sent to Chang'an to rule the world.

Second, the Chen family does not have a patriarch, and there are two big treasurers every year, who are in charge of the internal and external affairs, and the two are also in charge of financial power and military power, which are collectively called the two "martial merchants".

Third, there is a house of elders in the house, which is served as elders by all the clansmen who have become the chief treasurer, and the heavy decision of the chief treasurer must be approved by the elders' house, and there is no shortage of people with foreign surnames in the elders' house.

After the big treasurer Liao Bi and Chen Hao received Empress Chen's message, they immediately convened a meeting of elders.

After the two finished their reports, Chen Shi, the former treasurer, began to discuss: "Although Chen Ximei's belly is not angry, but there is more Sima Dan, the adopted son, the Chen family is like a tiger with wings, this is a great joy, Chen Fat Niu (Yan Hou) is said to like Sima Dan very much, why not recruit this kid to the door, if he is really a talent, we choose him as the big treasurer, and the deacon can enter the elders' house in a few years, which is much more reliable than Chen Ximei's belly!" ”

"Haha!" The elders at the scene were very excited about Chen Jia's summoning an outsider to be the big shopkeeper, and they didn't feel sorry at all. "Sima Dan has now made a small situation in the Western Regions, and besides, he has never known the true strength of the Chen family, so how can he want to join? Yun'er is a ** seed, and she should not be married to the prince, in the family, I think only Lihua's little girl can win the heart of such a hero. ”

"Hah! Want to sell your daughter? If you can bring back the seeds of the "little fire" pepper from Nanyang this year, I will definitely vote for you to be the big shopkeeper, and then you can marry your daughter to whomever you want to represent the Chen family...... Hehe! ”

"Wait, are we going to let the people of the royal family ascend to the throne? Sima Dan can't be the emperor, we're in trouble. ”

"I think it's better for Sima Dan not to be the emperor, I read those notes, this kid is really a talent, and it will threaten us if he sits in the world for the Sima family."

"It makes sense, the Jin room is too strong, which is not conducive to our business!"

"Yes! I don't have much interest in ruling the world, but seeing so many people with food and clothing, I think that doing business is also a way to rule the world. ”

"Some people give money to the royal family and say that they are talented in the world, fart!"

"Can you not digress!"

Chen Hao had to say loudly: "Okay! If you say this, there will be no result tomorrow, I will present three choices with Brother Liao and the other counselors, and the House of Elders will vote again, but if you don't like these three choices, don't blame me and Brother Liao for doing our own thing, the matter is very urgent, and we may not have time to meet and discuss it again! ”

Liao Bi also said: "If we want to mobilize the samurai, the compensation and mercy afterwards will be a lot of money, I hope you don't let those young people bleed, although I don't have the surname Chen, but these children are grown up by me!" ”

******

Chen Yun danced in front of Sima Tong, and as the drums joined, the rhythm became faster and faster, Chen Yun's clothes became fewer and fewer, and his posture became more and more moving.

Sima Tong "exponed" the beauties of the world, but he still couldn't help but feel itchy, and finally couldn't control it and rode on the queen's cousin.

"You whore, you're no longer a **!" Sima unified the gun to the end, and couldn't help but increase his efforts.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty's ......" Chen Yun did not intend to answer this question, the Chen family has always ignored the etiquette of the Central Plains.

Sima Tong suddenly turned into Sima Dan, Chen Yun's voice was louder, and his heart was more fulfilling, as if there was only one man in the world.

Suddenly, Sima Dan let out a long scream, and his whole body spurted blood, and Chen Yun screamed and woke up from the nightmare.

In the middle of the night, I dared to ask to see him.

******

"Yan Hou, the big shopkeeper has a letter and orders you to open it immediately. I also have one, why not refer to some of them? ”

"You old ghost, you can't sleep, you don't have to disturb people's dreams like this!"

"I heard from your maid that you couldn't sleep well tonight, so I helped you find a way to pass the long night!"

Chen Yun opened the envelope and changed color, "Are you afraid that I won't listen to the words of the Elders' House and come over to persuade me?" ”

"With the wisdom of Yan Hou, I also know what the Senate will decide after receiving our report, right? That's why I can't sleep at night these days? ”

"They think that as long as they can find a consistent compromise between their interests, then anyone, even the enemy who killed their father, can become an alliance, and there is no shortage of former enemies in the Elders' House, let alone slaves and the like, and it is not surprising that they want the prince to join."

"The Senate's requirements for talents are not much higher than those of the court, and Yan Hou can't enter yet, but Yan Hou is probably most dissatisfied that they want to marry Lihua to the prince, right?"

"The woman in Sima Dan's heart has always been Xiao Min, and now Jiabao, although she has feelings, Xiao Min's position in his heart is absolutely irreplaceable, Lihua ...... Lihua, she is not like me, this will ruin Lihua! ”

"It's rare that Yanhou still cares about others at such a time."

"Humph! Why don't I worry about Chen Yun without a man? Although Sima Dan is excellent, how can he be a man who can conquer me? ”

"Conquer ......? Yan Hou's words are really wonderful. ”

"Stop talking, I don't support the Senate's decision, but what's the use? In this case, we went directly to him, and sold this batch of goods to Shelun by the way, and he was now anxious to serve the people, and would not skimp on some gold coins, I want the gold coins of Rome! ”

******

Sima Dan has won the trust of Shelun since he helped Shelun defeat the joyful Gasth Khan, and not only has he been given many slaves, but even Gao Chun and Niu Tian have been named commanders and are in power in Shelun's direct tribe.

This night, Sima Dan was sleeping soundly, but he didn't expect a group of Rouran people to pounce on him like wolves, tie him up, and push him into Shelun's tent.

Being in the enemy camp, this kind of situation of capturing alive will occur at any time, and Sima Dan knelt down calmly.

In the center of the sweat tent, there is a worry-free princess who sits Shelun and a bright and shining person.

Gao Chun and Niu Tian were also tied up and pushed down, and the two shouted: "It's all our fault, we fell for the trick." ”

It turned out that although the two insisted on guarding Sima Dan, they were strongly invited by several generals of Rouran tonight, so they drank a few bowls of wine, and fainted while standing in Sima Dan's tent.

"I don't blame you, the Great Khan didn't want to hurt you, so he took sweat medicine!"

Shelun laughed, "Sima Dan, the prince of Jin, really understands the righteousness, not only helps me lead the army, but even if he becomes a prisoner, he still thinks for Ben Khan." ”

"Did the Great Khan recognize the wrong person?"

"That's right, you're Sima Dan." A big man came out of the crowd, and it turned out to be Kaman, who had crossed paths with Sima Dan several times under the tent.

Sima Dan looked at Kaman, and then looked back at Princess Sanssouci, the guards tightened the hemp rope that bound his neck, and fixed his head at the time, and he couldn't breathe for a while.

Shelun smiled and said, "Loosen a little, loosen a little, he can't get angry!" ”

The princess has a face like water, without the slightest wave.

"He is a benefactor of Kedun, and he has risked his life for Kedun I don't know how many times." Carman smiled softly.

"Great Khan, if I hadn't threatened his former subordinates, he would never have come to help me, and besides, his elite soldiers are still in Dayue, so he can't help me with all his might!"

"Haha, yes, yes, yes! Kedun is really smart and can distinguish between right and wrong! ”

Sima Dan sighed in his heart, and his carefree words could not be said to be lies, so he turned his heart sideways, "What does the Great Khan want?" ”

She Lun's face suddenly turned cold: "The prince has been in our army for so long, and he is too familiar with Rouran's Yiqiē, how can we let go of such a Jin person?" ”

"Humph! When Jin Wengong was a hostage in Qi, didn't Qi people send him back? There are many similar histories in history. ”

Princess Sanssouci sneered, "How can the example of Jin Wengong be compared? He didn't have access to military secrets, and besides, didn't Duke Wen of Jin later compete with Qi for hegemony? ”

Gao Chun and the others listened carefree and so ruthless, but their mouths were tightened and they couldn't speak, so they could only "hmm...... Not...... The face was flushed.

"The princess said very much! However, the Great Khan did not immediately behead us and the other three, but why? Is it just to catch a glimpse of our anger? ”

"Sima Dan, I won't kill you, if you can cooperate with my plan!"

Sima Dan saw that Wuwu's eyes flashed, and he knew that Wuwu must have some poisonous plan in order to help Shelun consolidate his position.

"I heard that Dayue City is full of gold and silver treasures, and I want them to open the city, so how about letting this kid of yours live?"

"Why don't you ask Princess Sanssouci that I will let thousands of people be robbed by you for my own life?"

"Humph! You don't believe in Ben Khan's methods, do you? Come on, push this out and cut it off! With a finger of his hand, the guards pushed Gao Chun out of the tent.

Sima Dan was shocked, thinking of struggling, he suddenly tightened the hemp rope again, couldn't speak, the back of the head was slammed with the back of the knife, and the sky was full of stars, only to feel that his back was wet, and his head was bleeding, he fell to the ground, and wanted to stand up, but he was stepped on, how could he stand up?

"Throw it in front of him!" Shelun's voice came.

Sima Dan's front was dark, and when he saw a head with blood and water in front of him, his face was angry, it was Gao Chun.

"Ahh Sima Dan saw his tears, everything was no longer visible after the tears, he didn't expect that in a thought, the tragedy had become a tragedy, he mourned in his heart, this kid who came all the way from Beidaying was like his own brother, watching Gao Chun grow up, he was the source of his smile, for a moment and a half, he endured this kind of grief, as soon as the rope on his neck was loosened, he cried, and his mind was blank.

"Excellent! This kid is finally scared! If you ask you again, if you say no, this boy who is as strong as a cow will be the same as this white-faced boy!"

Niu Tian didn't know where the strength came from, and he drank like thunder: "Prince! Ignore me! Then he swept the man with the hilt of his sword, and his face was covered with blood, and he fell to the ground.

"Livestock! Don't you remember how many enemies he killed for you? Sima Dan howled angrily.

"But now he keeps too much treasure for us?"

Sima Dan's head flashed the situation of the life of Dayue City, but in front of him was Gao Chun's head, and he suddenly felt that his chest was like a giant hammer.

Xiao Min's face lit up, yes, she won't fall for it, she will definitely protect Dayue City!

"I promise!" Sima Dan said desperately.

"Well, if you agree early, you won't have to suffer these things!"

"Great Khan, Zhuge Xiaomin in Dayue City is resourceful, we must ask him to write a letter in person to lure Zhuge Xiaomin out and capture him, otherwise it may not be easy to break the city." Carefree raised his eyebrows and smiled.

"Good plan, how to write a letter you drafted first, how about it?"

"By the orders of the Great Khan!" Worry-free with a flattering smile.

******

Murong Ming took the key to the underground passage of Dayue City in his hand and kissed Yin Yin passionately: "Don't worry, I will return it to you soon!" Absolutely unaware. ”

"Uh-huh!" Yin Yin was so confused that she couldn't speak.

A few days later, someone reported to the queen that Yin Yin had suddenly disappeared, and Jia Bao was startled, and hurriedly looked for the key to the underground passage in the bedroom.

In the afternoon of the same day, a body was found in the moat, and it turned out to be Yin Yin.

This incident alarmed Xiaomin, and she hurried into the palace to meet the queen.

"I said it's just an ordinary servant, you don't have to be too nervous."

"She is the queen's favorite maid, and the cause of death is extremely unusual, I just want the queen to try her best to think about what secrets she has at the bottom, and I hope the queen will tell me."

"Really Xiaomin, she doesn't grasp anything, I'll think about it again, if there is a certain sue for you."

"Queen, this matter is not a child's play, her death is more important than a patriarch!" There are hundreds of patriarchs, and there is only one personal maid, Yin Yin.

"Enough! Are you the queen or am I the queen? Is she your maid or my maid? You just want the prince to think that I am incompetent, and I can't even manage a maid, I sue you, it's impossible! ”

The two would quarrel every time they met, and Xiao Min was also extremely angry: "This is not your business alone, it's the business of Dayue City!" ”

"I don't care, it's just my maid, out of company!" Garbo finished speaking and walked away.

After Xiao Min left, she found that her fists were clenched so tightly that her nails had pierced into the flesh, and the pain pierced her more tears.

If it weren't for Sima Dan, she would have torn Jiabao apart, and if she couldn't do it, she could at least brush her sleeves away before Jiabao.

Thousands of stinky ducks!
