Chapter 222: The King's Speech: The Lord has changed
Since Mu Zixuan gave birth to a child, Lu Chen basically didn't go out for a period of time, neither to inspect the construction of the new city, nor to the arsenal, and most of the time he stayed in the palace to deal with government affairs.
The construction of the new city is proceeding in an orderly manner, and the first batch of weapons manufactured by the arsenal is about to be completed, and Lu Chen is now mainly waiting for the arrival of Zhuge Chongguang, the great master.
Of course, in addition to Zhuge Chongguang, Lu Chen was still waiting for the birth of the child in Da Zhou and Xiao Zhou's womb, and he wanted to know what kind of surprise these two children could bring him.
Early morning.
Lu Chen came out of Yelu Nanyan's room with a spring on his face, and he cultivated a one-night relationship with Yelu Nanyan last night, and Lu Chen is now very happy.
After leaving Chunsheng Courtyard, Lu Chen planned to go to the main courtyard for breakfast first, but at this moment, a maid walked towards Lu Chen.
"The slave and maid meet the prince, the prince is a thousand years old!"
Lu Chen nodded slightly, and was about to continue walking towards the main courtyard, but the maid did not give way, she opened her mouth and said, "Lord Wang, Commander Qin is looking for you." ”
"He's already waiting for you in the study."
Hearing this, Lu Chen was stunned for a moment.
Qin Yushan came to find him early in the morning, could it be that there was any important information?
Lu Chen didn't eat breakfast afterwards, and went directly to the study, wanting to see what Qin Yushan was looking for him.
When Lu Chen came to the courtyard where the study was located, he found that not only Qin Yushan was at the door of the study, but even Wang Qianci was also standing at the door of the study.
After seeing Lu Chen coming, Qin Yushan immediately saluted and said, "Meet the prince, the prince is a thousand years old." ”
Lu Chen nodded, and then walked directly towards the study, saying as he walked, "Come in." ”
Immediately afterwards, Qin Yushan and Wang Tianci followed into the study, and Lu Chen asked at this time: "Commander Qin, what is the matter with you looking for this king early in the morning?" ”
Qin Yushan took out a piece of information from his sleeve and put it on the desk, "Lord Wang, there is movement in the capital!" ”
Hearing this, Lu Chen's brain was stunned.
In the past few months, he has been waiting for his father to make a move against those families, and only when Great Xia is in turmoil can he completely divert the attention of the imperial court, and he can incorporate the northern land into the northern kingdom.
If the northern land is included in the northern kingdom now, it will definitely attract the attention of the imperial court, which is very unfavorable for him.
However, after waiting for a few months, there has been no movement in the capital, which makes Lu Chen a little suspicious that his father, the emperor, has really given up on the family.
Dawu and Daqian have already been in civil strife, but they haven't done it for so long, if they don't clean up those ancient families within the Great Xia Dynasty as soon as possible, and wait for Dawu and Daqian to come to their senses, Daxia will miss a good opportunity.
After a few months, there is finally movement.
Lu Chen immediately opened the information on the table, and then looked at it seriously.
After reading the information on the table, a smile appeared on Lu Chen's face, it seemed that the civil war in Great Xia was about to break out.
A few days ago, Emperor Xia cleaned up some of the officials of the imperial court and began to mobilize troops on a large scale, and Emperor Xia said that there was a plague in the southern Daqian Dynasty, and he would send troops south to guard the southern border to prevent the plague of the Daqian Dynasty from reaching the Great Xia Dynasty.
This kind of fool can see that it is an excuse.
first cleaned up some officials of the Jiangnan family, and then mobilized the army to the south on a large scale, which is not obviously aimed at the Jiangnan family.
It was true that there was a plague in the Daqian Dynasty, but even if there was a plague, with the southern vassal kings guarding the border, the plague would not spread to Daxia so easily.
Although the number of troops in the fief of the feudal king is limited, there are at least 50,000 soldiers in a fief, and 50,000 soldiers can't hold a border, and the Daqian Dynasty has not launched a war, and the soldiers of the fief only need to prevent the common people infected with the plague from running to Daxia.
This kind of small matter does not require the imperial court to mobilize a large army to the south, and Emperor Xia's intentions are too obvious.
Lu Chen is now a little unable to understand his father.
I didn't do it before, not only did I not do it, but I also made Lu Shuyun's guy the prince, and later released the right to operate the salt industry, which led to the rising price of salt in Daxia now, and fed the salt-making families in the south of the Yangtze River.
As a result, after so long, now I think about cleaning up the family, and it's still with such fanfare.
No matter how stupid those Jiangnan families were, they could guess that Emperor Xia was planning to send troops south to clean them up, right?
According to the current situation, I am afraid that the news of the family's rebellion will come in a few days.
After reading the information in hand, Lu Chen said: "Send a reply to Commander Liang, and ask him to always pay attention to the movements of the families in the Jiangnan area." ”
"Yes, lord."
"Lord Wang, if there is nothing to do, the subordinates will retire."
Wang Qianci is still on the side, and Qin Yushan still has a little eyesight.
Lu Chen nodded and said, "Well, you go and get busy with you." ”
When Lu Chen's words fell, Qin Yushan turned around and left the study.
After Qin Yushan left, Lu Chen looked up at Wang Tianci in front of him.
After this period of time, Lu Chen's nourishment, Wang Tianci's figure has become more enchanting, and the whole person has become more charming.
Lu Chen said with a smile: "Is there anything that Lord Wang Lou is looking for this king early in the morning?" ”
Wang Tianci took out a piece of information, put it on Lu Chen's table, and said lightly: "Lord Wang, it is rumored that the great master of Huanyu Academy went to the Dayue Dynasty, and talked about something with Emperor Yue in private, it seems that he intends to move Huanyu Academy to the Dayue Dynasty. ”
Hearing this, Lu Chen smiled faintly, he picked up the information on the table, and only glanced at it roughly.
Obviously, Zhuge Chongguang went to the Dayue Dynasty just to hide people's eyes, and his real purpose was to come to the northern country.
After all, there are so many students in Huanyu Academy, it is impossible to go to the northern country all at once, it needs a process.
As for the meeting between Zhuge Chongguang and Emperor Yue, it is not surprising at all, Zhuge Chongguang is also the great grandmaster of Wensheng, and a great grandmaster will be respected no matter what dynasty he is in.
There is a high probability that Emperor Yue wants to win over Zhuge Chongguang and let Zhuge Chongguang join the Yue Dynasty, so Zhuge Chongguang will meet in private.
However, it is a pity that Zhuge Chongguang will not be able to join the Dayue Dynasty.
Wang Tianci reminded at this time: "Recently, the situation of Huanyu Academy in the Daqian Dynasty is relatively poor, some people say that the reason why the Daqian Dynasty will encounter the plague is because those students of the Huanyu Academy do not abide by the etiquette and do not respect ghosts and gods, so God will send the plague to punish the Daqian Dynasty." ”
"Zhuge Chongguang, the dean of Huanyu Academy, went to visit other dynasties at this time, most likely to find a new place for Huanyu Academy, doesn't the prince think this is an opportunity?"
What is most lacking in the north now, Wang Tianci can also see it.
Lu Chen basically hasn't done that kind of thing with her in the study in the past few months, most of the time because Lu Chen is too busy.
There are not so many officials in the northern country, and many things need to be handled by Lu Chen personally, which causes Lu Chen to basically be in a high-intensity work state after entering the study, and he has no heart to talk to Wang to relax.
In the past, it was Lu Chen who cleaned up Wang Tianci in the study, but since Lu Chen's affairs became more and he became busy, Wang Tianci returned to the inner courtyard by himself, and lured Lu Chen into his room on the way to Chunsheng Courtyard at night.
If she doesn't cultivate a relationship with the little prince for a long time, Wang will also be greedy, so she will occasionally go back to the inner courtyard to find Lu Chen to satisfy her hunger, although every time she comes back, her brain is confused the next day, but once in a while, there is no big problem, as long as it is not like this every day.
What Wang Qianci is thinking now is that since Huanyu Academy is so unpopular, why don't Beiguo take this opportunity to recruit Huanyu Academy to Beiguo.
Not to mention that all the students of Huanyu Academy are officials, Zhuge Chongguang, the great master of Wensheng, is worthy of Lu Chen to accept the entire Huanyu Academy.
With Zhuge Chongguang, the great master, the deterrent power of the northern kingdom will be greatly improved in the future, even if the northern kingdom wants to be independent in the future, the imperial court will not dare to act rashly.
So far, the Great Xia Dynasty has not yet had the existence of a great grandmaster in the feudal state of a vassal king, and it is difficult to say secretly, but at least there is no one on the surface.
There is already a great grandmaster of Lu Chen in the northern country, plus a great grandmaster, that is, two great grandmasters, and the feudal country with two great grandmasters can completely disobey the words of the imperial court.
Of course, this is just Wang Tianci's personal thoughts, and she also knows that the minds of those scholars in Huanyu Academy are full of unrealistic ideas all day long, so it is difficult to say whether Lu Chen, the ruler, is willing to accept those scholars.
After all, for the time being, there is no ruler who is willing to accept a scholar whose mind is full of Datong thought.
After hearing Wang's words, Lu Chen smiled, and then asked, "Opportunity?" What chances? ”
"Could it be that in your opinion, the group of scholars in the Huanyu Academy is of great use to the Northern Kingdom?"
Hearing Lu Chen say this, Wang Tianci thought that Lu Chen, like other rulers, looked down on the group of scholars in the Huanyu Academy, so he said: "Lord Wang, although the minds of those scholars are full of some unrealistic ideas, their ideas are good for the common people, if those students of the Huanyu Academy can come to the northern country to be officials, the slave family believes that they will definitely serve the people wholeheartedly." ”
"If the officials are wholeheartedly for the common people, the common people will definitely count their merits on you at that time, which can make the common people trust the Northern Prince's Mansion more and stabilize your rule."
Hearing Wang Tianci's words, Lu Chen smiled, and then asked: "Didn't you think that if this group of people came to the northern country, would one day they directly overthrow me, the prince, and then they would have the final say in everything in the northern kingdom, and even let me hand over all the property of the northern palace?" ”
This......
Wang Qian thought for a moment, if it was the group of people from the Huanyu Academy, I am afraid that they would really be able to let the ruling class give up their interests to the common people.
So these people are indeed a threat to Lu Chen, the prince, and it's no wonder that Lu Chen doesn't want them.
Then the king said: "What the prince said is that the slave family is a little whimsical. ”
Just when Wang Qian said that Lu Chen was not interested in Huanyu Academy, Lu Chen suddenly said at this time: "No, you are not whimsical, if it is an ordinary vassal king, it is true that you will not want these scholars of Huanyu Academy, and you will also worry that those people will come to you to empty yourself after sealing the country." ”
"But I'm different from other vassal kings."
Hearing Lu Chen's words, Wang Tian was stunned for a moment, and then she asked, "Does the prince mean to recruit Zhuge Chongguang and those students from Huanyu Academy?" ”
"Solicitation?" Lu Chen smiled faintly.
"You're thinking too much, I'm not going to solicit them."
This......
Lu Chen didn't recruit them, so how could they come to the northern country? Lu Chen clearly didn't have much interest in Huanyu Academy.
Thinking about it, Lu Chen is the supreme ruler of the Northern Kingdom after all, although he said that he would not have too much rejection of them, but he definitely didn't have much interest in the group of scholars in Huanyu Academy.
Just when Wang Qian was thinking so, Lu Chen opened his mouth and said, "Huanyu Academy is mine, and I still need to recruit them." ”
What?
Hearing Lu Chen's words, Wang Tianci was stunned, she seriously doubted that there was something wrong with her ears, which caused auditory hallucinations.
After Wang Tian came back to his senses, he immediately asked, "Lord Wang, you are not joking with the slave family, is Huanyu Academy yours?" ”
Lu Chen smiled and asked, "What, are you surprised?" ”
"Slave ......"
The king was about to say something and stopped, and it was no longer a question of whether he was surprised or not.
Huanyu Academy is in the Daqian Dynasty, and the entire Huanyu Academy is actually Lu Chen's?
As far as she knew, the history of Huanyu Academy seemed to be much older than Lu Chen's, right? Huanyu Academy has been born for decades, it was founded by Zhuge Chongguang when he was young, why is it that the entire Huanyu Academy has become Lu Chen's now.
Wang Tianci asked curiously: "Lord Wang, is Zhuge Chongguang also your person?" ”
Lu Chen said: "This is nature. ”
"He didn't go to the Dayue Dynasty this time to join the Dayue Dynasty, his real purpose was to come to the northern country."
"In a few days, Zhuge Chongguang will come to Yancheng."
This......
Although she felt a little incredible, Wang Tianci quickly accepted the shocking news in her heart, after all, the man she was facing was Lu Chen, a strange man who could break through the realm of the Great Grandmaster at the age of seventeen, and there was nothing impossible in him.
Wang Qian thought for a moment, and then said: "Since Huanyu Academy is the power of the prince, the slave family will no longer pay attention to the affairs of Huanyu Academy. ”
"No, we still have to pay more attention to the situation of Huanyu Academy, Huanyu Academy is still in Daqian and has not moved to the northern country, if something happens to Huanyu Academy, Tingyulou can help appropriately in secret."
Wang said: "The slave family understands, if there is nothing to do, the slave family will leave first." ”
"Well, okay, you go and get your hands dirty."
When the words fell, Lu Chen lowered his head and picked up the information sent by Qin Yushan just now, and looked at it seriously.
Seeing this scene, Wang Tianci pursed her cherry mouth, Lu Chen's recent changes are really big, if it was before, Gao Gao would have scolded her in the study, but now Lu Chen is not scolding her in the study, which makes her feel very uncomfortable.
Wang Tianci sighed slightly in his heart, the little prince has become too serious, but it is not a good thing.
Just when Wang Tianci was sighing in his heart, Lu Chen noticed that Wang Tianci did not leave the study immediately, he looked up at Wang Tianci, and asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?" Is there anything else you can do? ”
Wang Tianci hurriedly said, "No...... It's okay, the slave family will leave. ”
With that, Wang turned around and left the study.
Wang Tianci thought in his heart that all the ridiculous things Lu Chen had done in the past were because Lu Chen was still young, after all, he was only sixteen or seventeen years old.
As Lu Chen grows up, his heart will become more and more mature, and after he matures, Lu Chen may not do the ridiculous things he used to do again.
I don't know why, she doesn't want Lu Chen to grow up, in the past, she was able to come and go in front of Lu Chen, and then provoked Lu Chen in various ways, stimulating Lu Chen to clean her up.
But I'm afraid it won't be like this in the future, once a person matures, her thoughts will also change, if she still wants to tease Lu Chen like before, not only will it not make Lu Chen feel excited, but it may make Lu Chen disgusted with herself.
As soon as he thought of this, Wang felt extremely lost in his heart.
She had long realized that there would be such a day, but she didn't expect this day to come so quickly, and in a year's time, Lu Chen had changed so much, becoming so mature and so masculine.
She still likes the little prince who does things to her at every turn and always thinks about being rough with her.
The more Wang thought about it, the more depressed he felt.
At this time, Lu Chen also discovered that Wang Tian's words were wrong.
Lu Chen always felt that Wang had something on his mind.
Lu Chen then called up Wang Tianci's personal information.
[Name: Wang Dumping]
[Identity: Beiwang's favorite slave girl, Beiwang's concubine, Tingyulou landlord, half-step grandmaster, she found that Beiwang has changed recently, has become serious, mature, and no longer treats her like in the past, which makes her feel very lost, she feels that Beiwang has had enough of her as a slave girl, and she may abandon her at any time. 】
[Rating: 95]
[Opinion: 100]
This......
Seeing the latest information on Wang Tianci, Lu Chen felt a little speechless.
During this period of time, he really rarely spoke to Wang as he did in the past, firstly, because he had too many things to do, and there were endless government affairs to deal with every day, and when he was in the study, he had almost no thoughts about women, so Wang Tianci came to the study to find him, and he was talking about things.
Although he rarely did that kind of thing to Wang Tianci in the study, Wang Tianci occasionally came back at night, and he would still go to Wang Tianci's room to play role-playing with her or something.
Wang Tianci actually thinks he has changed? She even felt lost because of it?
Could it be that in Wang Tianci's heart, he scolded her because he cared about her performance, and now that he has become so serious all of a sudden, he just doesn't like her?
Scold......
