As the war report was conveyed to the capital of Daji, it aroused a warm response from the courtiers, and soon, this war report also spread to the south bank of the Great River, in the palace of Chu State.

Scattered small snowflakes floated in Jinling, and Emperor Chu wore a fox fur cloak on his shoulders, standing at the door of the imperial study, holding the battle report in his hand, and his brows gradually wrinkled as time went on.

Muskets, artillery......

His hands clenched the battle report tightly, his eyes fixed on every word on it.

Why was the Chen Dynasty able to create such powerful things? Enough to unify the world, and he cannot.

He turned his head and glanced at Jia Yan, the old eunuch who was serving behind him, Jia Yan had served Emperor Chu for decades, and he knew what Emperor Chu meant with a glance.

Jia Yan leaned on his back and put a whisk on his arm.

Facing Emperor Chu's wordless inquiry, he shook his head lightly at Emperor Chu.

The flintlock pistols they now have a few in their hands, or they were accidentally obtained from the North Water Pass of the Qin State, but so far, countless efforts have been invested, and the military department of the Chu State has not imitated it, so the Chu Emperor was furious, and killed several groups of people, and the military department is now terrified.

If you can't rebuild the gun, when Daji finishes solving Goguryeo and Dongying, the good days of Chu will come to an end!

"Rubbish, what a bunch of rubbish!" Emperor Chu gritted his teeth fiercely, and shouted angrily in a low voice, "I eat and drink well to serve them, give them a lifetime of glory and wealth, after so long, they can't even make a small gun, it's really a waste, a waste!" ”

Jia Yan didn't dare to say anything.

It's just that my back is getting more and more bent.

After scolding a few times, Emperor Chu threw the battle report in his hand into the brazier, which was burned in an instant, he looked at the snow between the heavens and the earth outside, raised his head and muttered to himself, "Do you really want to give him this world......

"No!"

"Impossible!"

Emperor Chu waved his sleeves suddenly, put his hands behind his back, and said with more and more firm eyes: "This world is mine, it is mine, and no one can take it away." ”

Jia Yan listened, not daring to say a word.

He knew that his master had an almost crazy obsession with power, and that his master wanted to be the only emperor in the world, not just the emperor of Chu.

But in recent years, the country on the north bank of the river has risen step by step.

The speed of the rise shocked the emperor of any country.

And the state of Chu is still standing still, and even retreating.

If the situation still does not change, sooner or later the world will be a great era, which is something that Emperor Chu will never allow.

Emperor Chu clenched his fists and paced back and forth at the door of the imperial study, walking around.

At a certain moment, he suddenly stopped and said, "I don't believe that Chen Chao has no weakness, he must have!" Jia Yan, where did those people go? ”

"Your Majesty, it's almost there."

"Okay, prepare your pockets, be sure to catch them all, as long as you hold Chen Chao's weakness, it is equivalent to choking his neck, even if I don't have muskets and artillery, so what? I can defeat him. ”

"Slave and maid obey! The slave maid will arrange it immediately! ”

Jia Yan quickly stepped back.

So, on this day, many good hands who surrendered to the Chu Emperor secretly crossed the river and stepped into the land on the north bank of the river.

Their goal is clear!

It's two women and a couple of children.

When Concubine Lan heard the news, she frowned, interrupted the maidservant's report, looked at the young maidservant and said, "You mean, Your Majesty let that rootless thing summon the master of the Yanyu Building and go to the territory of Daji?" ”

"Yes...... After His Majesty abolished Empress Xiao, the masters in the Yanyu Building hid everywhere and did not show up in front of the world, but there were still people who surrendered to His Majesty and waited for His Majesty to send them. ”

"Your Majesty got angry in the imperial study today, and ordered Jia Yan to take the soft place of the Chen Dynasty and lock the Chen Dynasty's family back to Jinling."

"I see...... Stand down. Concubine Lan waved her hand and told the maid to leave the dormitory.

She sat on the soft bed with her hands folded.

Think about the seriousness of this matter!

After a while, her son Chu Yan swaggered into the palace, and on the way, he also teased two young and beautiful little palace maids.

But no one dared to accuse him of not, because he was Chu Yan, the current prince of Chu!

"The son asks the queen mother to say goodbye."

"Get up."

Concubine Lan beckoned, called her son closer, and whispered a few words in his ear.

Chu Yan didn't care much when he heard this, and said, "Queen Mother, isn't this good?" took the soft place of the Chen Dynasty, and this world is the father's emperor's. ”

Lan Guifei hated that iron could not become steel, and twisted Chu Yan's ears, which made him grin in pain, "What is good, you are a thing that cannot be made, your father and emperor have always been healthy, and it will not be a problem to live for more than twenty years, you have to work hard for more than twenty years before you can become an emperor, if you are not in a hurry, I will be anxious for you?" ”

Chu Yan frowned, but still didn't care, "Queen Mother, what's the matter, my son's blessings haven't been enough, and I don't want to be an emperor yet." ”

As soon as she heard this, Concubine Lan was immediately angry.

Ordered Chu Yan to stand up, picked up a feather duster, and slapped him hard on the ass a few times.

Lan Guifei taught while fighting: "Have you forgotten what happened to your fourth brother?" ”

Fourth brother?

Four Princes!

Chu Yan thought about it, and slowly, he put away the smile on his face, and there was no longer any nonsense just now.

His fourth brother died, and it was rumored that he was killed by the hands of Emperor Chu himself.

Lan Guifei put down the feather duster and said very seriously:

"Son, your father has always been ruthless, and you are cynical, after a long time, he may not have changed the prince, you can now be the prince thanks to your uncle's blessings, twenty years, twenty years later, can you guarantee that your uncle still has the power he has now? At that time, your crown prince will be abolished, and the queen mother will also be old, and you and my mother and son will be lost for many years. ”

Chu Yan took a deep breath, lowered his head, and finally realized the seriousness of the matter, he said, "Erchen listens to the queen mother's dispatch!" ”

Only then did Concubine Lan put her mind at ease, reached out and touched her son's head, with a loving smile on her face, "Son, be good, there will be no mistake in listening to your mother...... The royal family is the most ruthless, so whatever we do, it is a matter of course. ”

"What does the queen mean?" Chu Yan raised his head.

Lan Guifei didn't speak, just squinted her eyes, put a knife on her neck with her hand, and slashed lightly twice.

Although he did not speak, the meaning was already very obvious.

Kill!

Chu Yan was shocked, but seeing the determined look on Concubine Lan's face, he knew that he had no way out.

He gritted his teeth and said, "What does the Queen Mother need me to do?" ”

Lan Guifei flirted with her long sleeves and put them back on: "Wait for an opportunity!" Kill with a knife! ”
