Chapter 1204: Rich Merchant

"Min'er, do you see that? It's all your father's army, and it's yours from now on. Ye Lu pointed to the army and said to her son.

Three years ago, Princess Shi Xuan did not take good care of Chen Gaoxuan's son, which led to the death of her eldest son, Ye Lu finally found evidence that Shi Xuan was not dedicated to the two children, and deliberately did not give the two children a doctor to cause problems, so that Chen Gaoxuan abolished Shi Xuan.

Shi Xuan's only powerful eldest brother Shi Rui has long since died, and she has no son and half a daughter by her side, so no one speaks for her, Ye Lu successfully sat on the throne of the princess, and her child Chen Min was named the prince.

Seeing that it was about to be completed, Ye Lu couldn't help the agitation in her heart, she looked at the army, and only felt that the queen's position was beckoning to her, so that her years of forbearance were nothing.

She just didn't expect that the cheap big brother Ye Qiu would last so long, and he was actually Chen Gaoxuan's last opponent.

In this battle, Chen Gaoxuan personally led the troops, and Ye Qiu himself personally commanded the battlefield, the two looked at each other across the army and the high city wall, and finally Chen Gaoxuan waved his hand and took the lead in attacking.

The battle lasted for two days, and the soldiers on the battlefield were red-eyed and could not see fatigue, and the city was full of blood and the wails of the soldiers.

Fortunately, the people in the city had already heard the news and fled, otherwise they didn't know how many innocent souls there were.

In order to be able to sit on the throne of the queen safely, Ye Lu is now very afraid of death, she did not go to the battlefield, but hid in the army's supply camp.

Every day when she heard the sound of fighting on the battlefield, she was frightened, and at the same time, she looked at the batch of black powder that had just been made behind her, revealing sharp eyes, no matter what, she could only win this battle, not lose.

On this day, there was a strong wind in the sky, and the King of Linshan led Ye Qiu's army into a valley, and then ignited the buried black powder.

Ye Qiu was keenly aware that something was wrong, and quickly returned to the city, but fortunately, the purity of the black powder configured by the King of the Mountains was not enough, so the lethality was not so strong, and the iron cavalry was soaked in potion to improve his physique, so in the end, the casualties were not large.

The next day, King Linshan received the news from Ye Wen that Ye Qiu was about to sneak attack King Linshan's grain and grass, and King Linshan sent an army to defend it strictly, and really found a team sneaky.

But before they could rejoice, their black powder camp suddenly exploded violently, and the sky was full of fire that lit up the night.

Chen Gaoxuan's eyes turned red in an instant, he watched all this, and he couldn't believe this fact.

Originally, the Black Powder Battalion was the most heavily defended place for him, but after receiving the superstition today, he transferred the two teams of soldiers who were guarding it to this side.

"All soldiers, listen to my orders, take up arms, and we will counterattack immediately."

Chen Gaoxuan immediately realized that if he didn't make a move at this time, he could only wait to be slaughtered by the Ye family's army after his morale plummeted, he hadn't lost yet, but the black powder was gone, and he had only lost a small part of the army, but he still had a bow and arrow battalion, as well as a repeater and a heavy crossbow army, and the Ye family's iron cavalry was not necessarily his opponent.

But what he didn't expect was that in addition to him, there were also people in this world who had black powder, even more powerful than what he made.

Chen Gaoxuan and his army were ambushed, and the moment they were captured, he never imagined that he would be so completely defeated.

"You also have the recipe for black powder, and you've been hiding it!" He looked at Ye Qiu with red eyes, and blood spat out of his mouth.

"Ye Lu, she's your person, isn't she? She's pretending to be really good, you guys are really thinking long-term, I thought I had mastered the magic weapon to win, but it turned out to be a trap from beginning to end, a good means, you are really a good means! ”

Chen Gaoxuan was crazy, looking up to the sky and laughing, because he mistakenly believed in a woman, so he lost step by step, in vain he really thought that Ye Lu was moved by his true feelings, and in vain he really planned to crown Ye Lu as the queen after the matter was completed, his true heart was trampled on like this, that woman, did she have no heart?

At this time, the woman who was scolded by him fled in a hurry under the protection of Zhao Xiong, she never expected that Ye Qiu would also have black powder, she knew that no matter whether Chen Gaoxuan won or lost this battle, he had no share of his own, he must suspect that he was a spy.

But now it seems that Chen Gaoxuan lost, so Zhao Xiong fled back.

Ye Lu hated, obviously he was only one step away from the queen's throne, why did the battle suddenly take a sharp turn? Ye Qiu: Where did he get the black powder?

Could it be said?

She had a bold idea in her heart, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that it was possible, so she said Why did the Ye family suddenly participate in the battle for the throne? She said that why did the temperament of the cheap big brother change so much?

It's all just because Ye Qiu may be the same as her, and she has already changed a person in her core.

Everyone is crossed, why are the circumstances so different?

The more Ye Lu thought about it, the more he vomited blood, and even began to hate Ye Qiu's inauthenticity, since you are a fellow villager, why don't you say it? Isn't it good for everyone to join forces?

But Ye Lu herself forgot that she took the initiative to escape from the Ye family, and she was the one who single-mindedly identified Chen Gaoxuan, she didn't take the initiative herself, why should she ask others to take the initiative?

And why does she think that everyone is a fellow villager? Maybe it's reborn to seek revenge?

The battle for the throne finally came to an end this winter, and Ye Qiu sat on the throne with the support of everyone and gave the country the title of An.

The country has been in turmoil for too long, and the people have suffered too much, and the first thing Ye Qiu did after ascending the throne was to exempt the agricultural tax for three years and let the people recuperate.

If there is no land, the peasants are encouraged to borrow seeds from the imperial court for planting, and if they open up more than five acres of land, half of the seed money will be exempted.

Such a policy was cheered and supported by the common people, and those mountain bandits and anti-thieves saw that the overall situation had been decided, and they laid down their weapons and picked up farm tools one after another, and the country was in ruins and thriving.

As for the King of Xichuan who fled back to the northwest, Ye Qiu did not take advantage of the victory to pursue, as if he was letting it go.

In fact, the country is too consumed because of the war, Ye Qiu is unwilling to fight anymore, and the king of Xichuan is just the end of the crossbow, sooner or later he can't stand the fear and the economic blockade, and he will take the initiative to surrender.

As soon as Ye Qiu ascended the throne, the ministers began to urge him to choose a concubine, after all, the country is stable, you should also give birth to an heir to the world!

But Ye Qiu was as busy as a ghost, how could he have the heart to choose a concubine? Isn't this a waste of money and labor?

So with a wave of his hand, he gave Ye Cheng and Bai Xianyi a marriage, and the matter of the heir was handed over to the two of them!

Year after year passed, the ministers saw that Ye Qiu still refused to accept a concubine, and brought the eldest son of Prince Cheng and Bai Junhou to his side to raise him personally, and they had a bottom in their hearts, but some people secretly muttered, could it be that their emperor was injured in his early years because of his hard work?

Thinking about it like this, I was afraid of offending Your Majesty and your Majesty's self-esteem, but no one really mentioned it anymore.
