Chapter 198: Sealing Heavenly Strategy
Ten days later, outside the city.
A team of carriages slowly stopped on the side of the road under the waiting of Wen Yuli, Wen Chen and others.
The "Sheng" banner held by the accompanying army indicates their identity, which is the minister sent by Emperor Jingren.
Wen Chen had a little solemn look on his face, he had already received Pei Zhi's secret letter, although he had already prepared in his heart, cheap Lao Tzu would not let go of Hekou City so easily, but he didn't expect that the dignified King of Zhennan, for the sake of profit, would let his subordinates kidnap and extort his subjects, such a despicable and shameless means!
Five million taels of silver, he didn't feel very distressed, he was afraid that he was ruthless and killed those children!
Wen Yuli, who was beside him, looked relaxed at this time, did not squint, and looked at the figure coming down from the carriage with a smile.
"Du, I haven't seen you for many years, you haven't changed at all! is not like this king, who guards southern Xinjiang for His Majesty, but he is already a bad old man! β
Wen Chen was stunned for a moment, looked up in surprise, and then saw that it was his old acquaintance when he was in Qingcheng, Dulun, the father of Dongchang Factory!
This world is really small, and this is where Lao Tzu meets you again!
The old eunuch looked kind and took the initiative to greet him, "The prince said that you are refreshed, and you do not see old age at all, Your Majesty will rely on you a lot in the future!" β
The two exchanged polite greetings and seemed to be very familiar.
Du Lun turned his words and glanced at Wen Chen, who was speechless, "Everyone, take the order first, right?" β
"Yes, yes, it's important!"
Wen Yuli waved his big hand, and everyone behind him, along with more than a thousand silver armors, knelt on the ground one after another.
The old eunuch cleared his throat, took out the yellow silk in his arms and spread it, and said sharply:
"Fengtian carried the emperor, and the edict said:
Wen Chen, the son of the king of Zhennan, brave and good at fighting, has meritorious service in quelling chaos, and purged the Southern Qi for my great prosperity, so that the enemy is frightened, and I am very comforted, and the twelve cities of Yizhou Gu, Mo, and Han are their territories, and they are crowned as the generals of Tiance!
Wangwen Chen is not arrogant or impatient, adheres to the original intention, and continues to make contributions to my Dasheng! β
The words fell, and the eyes of everyone kneeling on the ground gathered on Wen Chen's body, their faces full of disbelief!
Admiral Tiance?!
In the hundreds of years since the founding of the country, the emperor has only canonized two Tiance generals, all of whom are brilliantly fought and expanded the territory for the country!
The most important thing is that the title of Admiral Tiance is not a feudal marquis, but it is better than a feudal marquis, but in the Dasheng Dynasty, in addition to the first title under Emperor Jingren, he even overpowered the king of Zhennan!
The fiefdom of the twelve cities is equivalent to giving most of Yizhou to Wen Chen, you must know that this is the territory that Wen Yu has worked hard to fight a few years ago, and he has fought down one soldier at a time! Emperor Jingren is going to do something!
Wen Yuli's face was ugly, and he raised his head suddenly, with suspicion in his tone, "Gonggong Du can't be mispronounced, right?" Admiral Tiance, how is it possible?! β
A trace of helplessness flashed in the old eunuch's eyes, and he shook his head gently, "This is indeed Your Majesty's will, please don't get up, the holy decree has not been read yet." β
When King Zhennan heard this, he clenched his fists tightly and reluctantly bent down on the ground.
Du Lun then recited, "King Wen Yu of Zhennan has a way to teach his son, reward 100 Dongzhu and 8,000 silk, and give the marriage Princess Liyang as one of his two princes, and compete in civil and military affairs, and after the princess chooses a good son-in-law, she will choose an auspicious day to get married!"
Chin thisβ"
The four words of this godson are particularly harsh to Wen Yuli's ears, but he still suppressed the anger in his heart, pretended to kowtow respectfully, and said in a loud voice, "The minister is Wen Yuli, the order!" β
Got up and smiled meaningfully at Wen Chen on the left, "It's really a good son of this king, much stronger than when this king was young......
To his surprise, Wen Chen was unusually this time, and did not show a submissive look towards his beating, but responded with an expressionless face.
"The back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, the blue is better than the blue, and the father should feel happy."
"Also, as far as the sons know, this Tiance general should be slightly larger than his father's official title, and this holy decree should be received by the sons!"
As he spoke, he stretched out his hands to Wen Yuli in a serious manner.
When the people around him saw this, their faces suddenly changed greatly, this kid floated too fast, right? As soon as I received the title, I immediately stopped taking my own Lao Tzu in my eyes?!
The corners of King Zhennan's mouth twitched, his eyes were cruel, and he said without smiling, "That's right, I have to ask Admiral Tiance to take care of this king in the future!" β
With that, he pressed the holy decree on Wen Chen's hand and walked towards the city without looking back.
Everyone under his command hurriedly followed, only Wen Yuli stayed with a few people, and his expression was extremely strange.
Liyang, who was kneeling in the back, suddenly got up, hurriedly came to the old eunuch, and asked eagerly:
"Dugong Du, did you misread the holy decree just now, Uncle Wang clearly has three sons, how could my father let this palace choose between the two princes to marry?"
The old eunuch secretly rolled his eyes, what happened to these people today? Why are they all questioning our family's misrecital of the Holy Decree?
What does our family do to eat, if we can't do this well, won't we live most of our lives in vain?
But although Du Lun thought so in his heart, he still respectfully saluted Liyang, "Returning to Her Royal Highness the Princess, this is indeed Your Majesty's will, His Royal Highness the Sea King has been crowned as the Admiral of Tiance, so he will not participate in the process of the princess's selection of horses." β
"Why?"
Liyang's face turned pale, he kissed everything, touched it, and touched it, in the end, the palace couldn't choose him as a colt?!
Wen Chen chuckled lightly on the side, "Your Royal Highness Princess, don't you understand this?" Admiral Tiance is His Majesty's reward to the king, and the marriage of the princess is His Majesty's reward to his father. β
Liyang's expression was gloomy and he looked back silently.
Wen Chen sighed slightly in his heart, Emperor Jingren was really scheming, and he regarded himself as a chess piece at the mercy of him from beginning to end.
deliberately crowned himself the general of Tiance in front of the cheap Lao Tzu, just to pull the two sides against each other, and reward himself with the Yizhou that Wen Yuli had worked so hard to beat, but also to force him to act according to the emperor's own plan!
Didn't your King of Zhennan kill a Ning Peizhi?
Then I will cultivate another Ning Peizhi! I just want to see if you will risk the condemnation of the world and attack your own son in order to rebel!
Wen Chen understands that according to the routine of the game between the two sides, he can only be a victim of mutual checks and balances in the end, and it can be seen from Emperor Jingren's refusal to let him participate in the selection of horses in Liyang, in the eyes of the emperor, he is no different from a dead man!
"Du's father-in-law......"
The old eunuch in front of him was stunned for a moment, and arched his hand towards Wen Chen, "I don't know what General Tiance has to say?" β
Wen Chen smiled slightly, and hugged Du Lun's shoulders affectionately, "Who gave you the courage to dare to come to my Wen family's territory?" β
The two of them had a not very good memory before, first Wen Chen set up the old eunuch in order to save Lingyu's father and made him commit a capital crime, but due to the quick success of the household Shangshu Jin Dong, Emperor Jingren saw the clue and spared the old eunuch.
Later, when Du Lun left Qingcheng, he asked Ma Qingshan's uncle and nephew to find a way to put Wen Chen to death, but those two fools were far from being Wen Chen's opponents, but were finally betrayed by the old eunuch and ended up dead without a place to be buried!
Du Lun's face froze, but he immediately returned to normal, and said with a smile, "There is no contradiction between our family and the general, why don't you dare to go to Jingzhou?" β
"Really?"
Wen Chen raised his eyebrows, "What should I do if the general wants to get you if he doesn't like the factory master?" β
