Linzhou.

After Xia Zhiqing gave birth to a child, Chen Mo accompanied them to stay in Xiangyang City for more than half a month, and then picked up the matter of inspecting the entire territory of Linzhou that had been put on hold.

Before the start of spring, the inspection was completed.

Chen Mo made a special tour of the shipyard.

The sailor of the Wu family in Jiangdong can be called first-class, and the shipbuilding skills of the Wu family have been inherited for thousands of years, far above the Nangong family.

After marrying the Wu family, the Wu family provided support to Chen Mo in the manufacture of warships and the training of sailors.

Under the dual efforts of the Nangong family and the Wu family, the overall strength of the fish scale guard has been greatly improved.

After the inspection, Chen Mo was very satisfied.

Although the Xiao family took refuge in him, he had to really control Jiangnan in his hands before he could feel at ease.

Therefore, after the beginning of spring, he planned to send Nangong Xian and Wu Changlin to lead the fish scale guard and the Wu family's sailors to enter Jiangnan and receive the Xiao family's private soldiers.

That's right, the Xiao family is different from the Wu family, Chen Mo will never allow the Xiao family to have a private army of their own.

Also, Suzaku Wei's side.

After inspecting the redcoat cannon and having no quality problems.

Chen Mo allocated silver taels to Suzaku Wei.

All the "dowry" that he had obtained from King Huai was invested in Suzaku Wei for the expansion of the factory and the research of the flowering bomb.

Previously, Suzaku Wei could only make a red-coated cannon in a month.

With the expansion of the plant, the number of furnaces increased.

According to conservative estimates, five red-coated cannons a month is still not a problem.

In terms of gunpowder, Chen Mo no longer needed to take out nitrate from urine, but found a nitrate mine in Linzhou.

……

Lonan.

Queen Xu Ying fell to the ground weakly, her eyes full of fear.

She wanted to get up, but she couldn't help but tremble, and her eyes gradually moistened.

The palace maid hurriedly helped her up.

Just now, she received a message.

Ashimori staged a mutiny, and his father was killed by Ashimori.

The Xu family was also raided, and a group of family members were thrown into prison by Lu Sheng.

"Hahaha."

At this moment, Chu Nan, the Son of Heaven, walked into Xu Ying's bedroom with a big laugh.

That's right, he's here to gloat.

He didn't have any feelings for Queen Xu, and he only had anger and hatred in his heart.

If he hadn't been coerced by Xu Guozhong, he wouldn't have married Xu Ying at all, let alone made her a concubine, and even Xu Guozhong forced Liang Ji to abolish the position of queen and make her the queen instead.

Not only that, Xu Ying used the power of her father Xu Guozhong to constantly suppress the concubines in the harem and prevent the concubines from getting pregnant.

Even, Chu Nan suspected that Liang Ji had not been pregnant for so many years, and it was Xu Ying who bought off the palace people and did something behind her back.

All these made Chu Nan extremely resentful of Xu Ying.

"Xu Guozhong's old thief is finally dead. I look forward to him day and night, curse him to die early, and even do not hesitate to learn the magic of witchcraft, after all, God has eyes, hahaha cough cough"

It may have been too excited, which made Chu Nan's face flush and cough a few times.

It's been eleven years.

Since he succeeded to the throne, Xu Guozhong has been pressing on his head for eleven years.

Except for the first two years of his succession, Chu Nan felt like an emperor and could exercise the rights of the emperor, but he didn't leave Tianchuan, and in the future, no matter what happened, he had to nod Xu Guozhong to do it.

If it weren't for Liang Ji, who was chosen by the first emperor when he was alive, I am afraid that this queen would not be up to him.

This made his life very aggrieved.

Let him feel that he is not like the emperor, but someone else's prisoner.

Now, the mountain that weighed on his head and made him breathless was finally gone.

"I only hate that I can't slash the thief with my own hands, and I have relieved the anger in my heart." These words, Chu Nan said sonorously and powerfully.

Xu Ying silently shed tears, and her body trembled again.

"Xu Guozhong is dead, now no one can stop me, I want to abolish you, a poisonous woman, and re-establish Liang Ji as the queen, I want to revive the dynasty." Chu Nan's heart was extremely excited and ambitious.

Now he is still fantasizing that as soon as Xu Guozhong dies, he will be able to regain imperial power.

As he spoke, he glanced at the palace maid who was supporting Xu Ying, and shouted, "Whoever asked you to help her, get out of here." ”

The palace maid did not act immediately, but glanced at Xu Ying.

She followed Xu Ying into the palace together, she was Xu Ying's personal maidservant, and she obeyed the orders of the Xu family.

And this move undoubtedly made Chu Nanji extremely annoyed: "What, my words don't work, believe it or not, I punished your nine clans"

The palace maid was frightened, and hurriedly let go of Xu Ying, knelt in front of Chu Nan and kowtowed: "Your Majesty forgives your sins, Your Majesty forgives your sins"

Without the support of the palace maid, Xu Ying, who was already grief-stricken, sat on the ground.

"Don't get out of here yet." Chu Nan shouted.

The palace maid hurriedly left the queen's bedroom.

And this made Chu Nan feel a trace of the joy of the return of power, and the smile on his face became a little richer.

Just then, there was a rush of footsteps outside the door.

"General, you can't go in, this is the queen's bedroom, Your Majesty and the queen's mother are inside, you"

"Fuck off."

Hui Cheng kicked away the eunuch who was blocking him, and walked into the queen's bedroom with Lu Sheng.

Chu Nan frowned slightly when he saw Lu Sheng break in like this, and he was a little unhappy in his heart, but he still pretended to be calm on the surface and chuckled: "General Lu is here." General Lu killed the thief Xu this time and saved me from fire and water, I want to thank General Lu well, and I have decided to make General Lu the prime minister."

But the words were not finished.

Lu Sheng directly interrupted him.

Lu Sheng is not Xu Guozhong, he is a rough man, he doesn't like to engage in those twists and turns, so he turned back and commanded directly: "Come on, lay out the pen, ink, paper and inkstone for Your Majesty." ”

Then he looked at Chu Nan: "Your Majesty, now in order to stabilize Luonan and the outside, you need an edict, the minister will read it, and you will write it." ”

After speaking, he put the heirloom jade seal he got from Xu Guozhong in front of Chu Nan.

Chu Nan's face changed, and he realized that Lu Sheng was going to do Xu Guozhong's move.

Chu Nan's body suddenly weakened, his eyes were blank, his hands and feet were floating, like a marionette, manipulated by Lu Sheng.

He never expected that Lu Sheng would go even further than Xu Guozhong.

First of all, Lu Sheng asked Chu Nan to admit his guilt and use people unladylikely, so that Xu Guozhong controlled the government, caused chaos in the dynasty, ruined the lives of the people, and the people suffered.

Then let Chu Nan depose Xu Ying and make him a slave.

In the end, it was to let Chu Nan abdicate, pass the throne to the king of Qi, and order Lu Sheng to be the auxiliary minister, the position of prime minister, and Hui to become the general.

King Qi is the son of Chu Nan.

When Chu Nan was still the prince, he was born to a maid under drunkenness.

I can't get on the table all the time.

……

The other side.

In the cold palace.

"Mother, good news, good news." A palace maid trotted to the cold palace and told Liang Ji the news of Xu Guozhong's killing.

In the palace maid's opinion, Xu Guozhong is dead, then Queen Xu will be abolished soon, Liang Ji will soon be able to get out of the cold palace, and she has to take care of it now.
