Chapter 535: Foreshadowing
Both countries began to devote themselves to internal affairs, allowing the people to recuperate, and the state of Fujian, which had been huddled aside, breathed a deep sigh of relief when it saw this.
Chen Jian and his henchmen sighed: "My Fujian country will be stable for a few more years. ”
"But Xiangye, we can't always look up to people, if today's general trend is not Liang or Shu, where will our Fujian country go?"
Chen saw that his heart was a little heavy, and he sighed: "That is also the trend of the times, we have few villains in Fujian, so we can't take eggs to hit stones." ”
The Min State was the tail of the south east of the Tang River, and after the world was in turmoil, the Wu family killed the assassin of Fuzhou at that time, thus establishing the Min State.
The Chen family has a very high reputation in Quanzhou, and the Wu family is related by marriage, so he also stood on the Wu side and persuaded the Quanzhou assassin to join the Wu family.
Through suppression and expansion, in the end, the Min State occupied only four states, which were not as large as the Jiangnan Province of the Liang State.
Originally, in the east of the south of the Yangtze River, the economy of this area was not good, if it were not for the chaos in the world at that time, and later after the establishment of the Liang State and the Southern Han Dynasty, they fought with other countries, and looked down on the small place of Fujian, which had already been swallowed.
If their king is wise and intelligent, he may be able to learn from Zhou Yu and assist the monarch in annexing rivers and mountains and fighting for the world.
It's a pity that although the emperor has ambitions, he can't endure hardship, he began to assist him from the crown, at first he hated iron and steel, and then fought, and now the actual power of Fujian is in his hands.
The emperor has become an ornament in him, how can such a person compete with figures like Emperor Liang, Emperor Chu and Emperor Shu?
So Chen Jian is also dead, as long as he manages the people below.
It's just that now, the Southern Han Dynasty and the Chu State have been destroyed, and Dali is in a corner of peace, as far as the Central Plains is concerned, it is also Liang and Shu'er.
What will I do in the future?
Fight too, and then wait for the country to be destroyed?
But if he wants to surrender, he is unwilling to surrender to others, he is still like this, not to mention Emperor Min, who has always been high?
Chen Jian didn't know that when he was struggling with anxiety, his nephew and student Chen Gu had already set a line for the family and the Yue family, so that the two families could start a business.
After Chen Gu married Qian Yuyu, he took her back to Quanzhou to meet her parents, and the Chen family's attitude towards Qian Yuyu was good, and it was better for her when she became pregnant.
Because the Qian family is a local gentry in Suzhou, and the Chen family is a gentry in Quanzhou, through this young couple, they found that each other had a lot of things they wanted, so they began to communicate with each other.
Fujian has a port to the outside world, and a large part of the treasury's income comes from here, so there are many strange imported goods, which are even better than those in Hangzhou.
So the Qian family started from the in-laws.
It can be said that in the relations between several countries, only Fujian has a good relationship with other countries, and the merchants of Fujian can travel to every country, including the former Southern Han Dynasty.
No country would refuse to come and go from Fujian, because they were not afraid of Fujian, and the goods brought by the Fujian people were good.
Chen Gu's matchmaking has only made people-to-people exchanges between the two countries more frequent.
What surprised the Chen family even more was that Mr. Ji also accepted Chen Gu as a student.
Not to mention the Chen family, the other in-laws also pulled their children to Chen Gu and asked him to take people to Suzhou, maybe they are also lucky enough to make Mr. Ji take a fancy to him?
The movement was too loud, so that Chen Jian, who was the prime minister in Changle Mansion, also knew.
He called Chen Gu and carefully asked about the situation in Suzhou and the process of accepting apprentices, and after being silent for a long time, he said: "Since you are going to Suzhou to study, you have to stay for a long time, and it is not good to leave your daughter-in-law at home, so you can take her with you." ”
After a pause, he said: "Your parents have never been out of Quanzhou in their lives, while they are still strong, it is better to take them out for a walk, I heard that the climate in Suzhou is suitable, you can take them to live for a while, and you can also take care of your daughter-in-law to give birth." ”
Chen Gu looked up at Chen Jian in surprise, and hesitated: "Uncle, can my nephew come back after this trip?" ”
Chen smiled when he saw it, "Quanzhou is your hometown, you just don't want to come back, I also want to call you back." ”
Chen Gu breathed a sigh of relief, got up and saluted, "Sir, don't worry, the student knows how to do it." ”
Chen Jian is not only his uncle, but also his husband.
Speaking of which, when it comes to blood, they are just distant relatives, or the master and apprentice are closer, and he went to Suzhou to study on the orders of Chen Jian, one is to do learning, and the other is to read the library.
Unexpectedly, in the end, not only did he marry a daughter-in-law and come back, but he also worshipped Ji Yuan as a teacher.
Chen Jian advised: "If you talk about teaching and educating people, I can't beat the horse as well as Mr. Ji, since you worship him as a teacher, then learn from him." ”
Chen Gu should be down.
Chen Jian sighed: "You have all the talents, but unfortunately you are not in the official career, and I never force you, but Quanzhou raised you and raised you, and you will always have to do something for it in the future to repay one or two, and it is not in vain to come to this world to go through this experience." ”
"Sir, the students know it." Chen Gu said with a resolute expression: "The student union will try its best to maneuver." ”
Chen saw his expression and laughed, shook his head and said, "How can you control the major affairs of the two countries as a nobody?" What do you think I want you to do? ”
Chen Jian said with a smile: "As long as you learn from Mr. Ji well, but if you learn his two points of educating people, when you settle down in the future, you will return to Quanzhou and teach more talents, and it will be in vain that I taught you." ”
Chen Gu was stunned, and then his eyes turned red.
He also thought that his uncle wanted him to go to the Chen family, so he asked him to leave with his parents, wife and children, so that his family would at least not be implicated in the future, but it turned out that he thought too much and his heart was too narrow.
"Uncle ......"
"You still call me sir," Chen Jian shook his hand and smiled, "That sounds better." ”
Chen Gu took a step back, bowed and saluted, "Sir, the student will live up to your trust." ”
Chen Jian nodded and sighed, "Go, go." ”
He didn't know who to talk to, but on Liang Guo's side, although he had some thoughts, there was no way.
Chen saw that there was no way, but Ji Yuan had already found a way, otherwise he would not have accepted an apprentice at this age.
He always remembered what he promised Lin Qingwan, and he didn't know if she knew Chen Gu's identity when she pulled the marriage line for the Qian family and the Chen family.
But apparently, this identity will help him a lot in the future.
In the Min Kingdom, the emperor is surnamed Wu, but the government of the Fujian State is in the hands of Chen Jian, and the people are more convinced of Chen Jian.
As long as Chen Jian is willing, the matter of surrender will become seventy percent.
And what he has to do now is to achieve the seventy percent, as long as Chen Jian is willing, he can stand in the court of the Fujian Kingdom and strive for the remaining thirty percent.
Liang Guo didn't know that Ji Yuan had begun to plan, and after Cui Zheng came back from Suzhou, Emperor Liang knew that Lin Qingwan had also begged Ji Yuan, and he was even more moved for a while.
sighed again in the court, looking at the position where Lin Qingwan once stood and crying.
Ministers who don't know the inside story: ...... Your Majesty is getting more and more sentimental, what can I do?
