Chapter 190: General Lu falls out of favor
Cui Cheng's face was full of disbelief, this was actually said by her most beloved mother, allowing herself to kill the woman she loved the most and her own children?
"No, Mother, I love Lei'er, Mother has your grandchild in her belly, I can't kill her, I won't. Cui Cheng stretched out his hand to block in front of Wen Huailei, his face full of determination.
"Regret, my mother doesn't want to do this, and my mother can't help it, but what will your father think? You are provoking his authority, you should remember that your father told you that he wants to train you to be the prince of the Ming Dynasty, the next emperor, and you will be the master of this great Ming. Do you want to disappoint him? You don't know your father's character, he hates people and disobedience the most, in case you anger him, you know the consequences, it doesn't matter if I die, but what should you do if you regret it?" After Cui Ning's words were finished, Wen Huailei, who was already in shock, was directly stunned, his man was the son of His Majesty? The successor of the Ming Empire? His grandfather told himself that Cui Cigui was unspeakable, and what he said was true?
But what now? I do love Cui Cheng, she is lucky, to be able to marry someone who loves her, and who is also the person she loves, in this era is almost impossible. And Cui Cheng's identity turned out to be the prince, from Cui Ning's words, Wen Huailei could see that Cui Cheng was being cultivated by His Majesty as much as he could, although his identity was not announced, but he was carefully cultivated from the army to civilian officials, and even Cui Cheng was His Majesty's heir, which is very likely to be true. His own man is the future emperor, and the thought of it excites him.
What's more, she still has this man's child, but now she has to face a choice, her union with him has not been approved by His Majesty, and she is even pregnant. In case His Majesty is angry, his man loses the qualification of the heir, it is all his own fault.
She is willing to sacrifice for the man she loves, but she is reluctant to give up her child, her child is innocent, he has not come to the world, he cannot die. Mother's love is the purest feeling in the world, a mother can do anything for her child, Wen Huailei can die, but she doesn't want to kill her child.
"Husband, I can die, please let our children go. Wen Huailei cried and knelt in front of Cui Cheng, with her lover and child on one side, and her mother on the other, Cui Cheng felt that her heart was about to burst.
Cui Cheng looked at his mother Cui Ning for help, but found that Cui Ning was stunned when he looked at Wen Huailei. Cui Ning is a ruthless woman, no, her heart is very soft, just like her character, her docile and virtuous personality is the reason why Chu Yun favored her back then. However, people will always become, and the upheaval she has experienced is even greater than Chu Yun's, and the blow to her is almost fatal. His younger brother betrayed his husband, and his younger brother and sister turned themselves into dirty women who could be husbands. But for the sake of his own children, he can endure it.
When she finally saw the figure she had been thinking about day and night, what was waiting for her was not a gentle hug, not a gentle safety, but a cold killing intent. His brother died, and the woman who bullied him also died, and although he found his husband, he lost his husband's heart forever.
From hope to despair, then from despair to hope, and finally complete despair, Cui Ning's life is definitely full of ups and downs. Just when she was ruthless about being a bad woman for her son, she actually saw the shadow of herself in Wen Huailei's eyes, did she want to let this woman her son like happen again? No, never.
"Husband, ah, Your Majesty. Just when Cui Ning was making up her mind to become an adult, she suddenly saw Chu Yun standing at the door, and she immediately knelt down. And hearing Cui Ning's words, Cui Cheng and Wen Huailei also turned their heads in shock, and saw His Majesty of the Ming Empire at a glance, and they also quickly knelt down.
Chu Yun's momentum was very strong, as soon as he appeared, the three of them were so frightened that they didn't dare to breathe, of course, this is also the constant declaration of the Supervision Department and Jinyiwei Chu Yun is a living god, so the people of the Ming Dynasty, including officials, are more and more in awe of Chu Yun, and even the elders of the cabinet have been affected, not to mention them.
"Are you Wen Huailei?Xing Guogong Wen Ge's granddaughter?" Chu Yun looked at his daughter-in-law, she really looked like a natural country, no wonder Cui Cheng couldn't help it.
"Back to Your Majesty, the little woman is Wen Huailei. Seeing that although Wen Huailei was a little trembling, she still answered her question politely, Chu Yun was very satisfied, this woman had the potential to become a queen.
"Well, your daughter-in-law, I admit it, I will let Regret marry you as soon as possible, but I don't want you to tell others about Regret's identity, even if it's your grandfather. Although Wen Qiao's old thing should have seen something, he still couldn't tell him. Let this old guy guess slowly. You go down first. Chu Yun said with a smile, Wen Huailei and Cui Cheng were overjoyed, she respectfully bowed to Chu Yun and retreated.
Chu Yun looked at Cui Cheng again, "Stinky boy, you are much more powerful than your father, you actually got on the bus first and then made up the ticket, but your eyesight is still good." This time, I let you come back from Ba County because of an important task entrusted to you, I am ready to let General Lu destroy Qiu Chi, you have been in Hanzhong for a year, you should be familiar with the situation where, I will appoint you as the deputy marshal, to assist General Lu to destroy Qiu Chi, you work hard, and strive to make a contribution. But I won't let you go back to the army, you still have to go to Wuwei County to take office. After arriving, you have to manage the people's livelihood on the one hand, and on the other hand, you have to assist General Liu Dongyong and Liu to stabilize the Western Front. I will attack the Great Liang Kingdom for the second time within a year, and Wang Jie will be the commander. You must do your homework well and strive to make meritorious achievements. When the time comes, I will appoint you as the assassin of Liangzhou, but I still won't help you, it's up to you. I have prepared an assistant for you, this man is named Zhang Oy, who is strong and agile, and can walk backwards with an ox, and can climb over the city walls, regardless of the height of the city. He and You Liangchen assisted you with one article and one martial arts, even if it was a little support from me as a father. Don't live up to my hopes, you go to accompany your woman, and after you get married, let her stay in Chang'an, and wait for her to give birth to a child before accompanying you. But during this time, I won't let you be alone, I have already found you a few concubines, they are all the children of middle and low-level officials of the Ming Dynasty, and they will not pose a threat to my daughter-in-law, you can reassure her. Okay, go see her, take care of it. Chu Yun's attitude towards Cui Cheng this time was very kind, which flattered Cui Cheng, he had never enjoyed a little fatherly love, he was groggy and didn't even know how to get out.
There were only two people left in the room, Chu Yun and Cui Ning, Chu Yun didn't speak, Cui Ning also knelt all the time, and the atmosphere in the room almost froze.
"Cui Ning, I really didn't expect you to have such a ruthless time. Chu Yun looked at this woman he was most familiar with and sighed, he was no better than pretending to be a high emperor in front of her, I didn't bother to say, he knew that there was no need in front of this woman, she even knew herself better than herself.
"Husband, it's not what you think. Cui Ning was about to explain, but Chu Yun shook his hand and interrupted, the two of them were no longer possible, Chu Yun could tolerate a woman who had been married, but he would never tolerate his own woman being by an unknown number of men, even if she was not voluntary. Every time he thought of this, Chu Yun wanted to kill her with his own hands.
"I know what you want to say, you are all for remorse, and I understand your feelings, but you must know that the next generation of emperors of the Ming Empire allows unmarried pregnancy with his queen, which may be a good story, but it will never allow a queen mother who has been defiled by countless wild men. After Chu Yun finished speaking coldly, Cui Ning sat on the ground dejectedly.
"Your Majesty, I know that I deserve to die, and I should have died a long time ago, and now that I regret my son, there is someone to take care of her for me, and my brother has done something wrong, and my sister should also pay the bill for him. Cui Ning said that he was about to hit the wall and die.
As soon as Chu Yun stretched out his hand, he grabbed her in the air, and Chu Yun threw her to the ground like garbage, "Do you want to make regret hate me for the rest of my life?"
After Chu Yun finished speaking, Cui Ning figured it out, if he really died here, Cui Cheng would never be able to forgive Chu Yun, and then the father and son would definitely be strangers, and thinking about Chu Yun's character, Cui Ning shuddered. Cui Ning knew that Chu Yun was ruthless and would definitely eliminate the sprout of danger as quickly as possible, even if this threat was his son. But although Cui Ning knew the character of the dispatch, after he failed to commit suicide, Chu Yun only focused on whether Cui Cheng resented this father, but never cared about himself at all, Cui Ning was still full of desolation. Could it be that Chu Yun really doesn't miss the old love at all?
"Your Majesty, just tell me how to do it. Cui Ning lowered his head and said, Chu Yun seemed to see Cui Ning's shadow more than twenty years ago, and his heart softened, but he immediately hardened.
"You are a descendant of the Bolingcui clan, although this family is only a medium-sized family, but it is better than your reputation. (Don't complain about me if you have the surname Cui, the Boling Cui clan of the five surnames and seven families is really not a big family at this time) I have already captured them all, I want you to choose a suitable dead person to become the mother of the penitent, and you are just a side aunt, do you understand? If there is no suitable one, make it up, and make one for me. In addition, you have to persuade the repentant to agree, don't you understand? You are just the aunt who raised Cui Cheng's adult, this time the repentant child's wedding, I will let the patriarch of the Cui family arrange it, and you can participate as an aunt and adoptive mother. I will give Regret another ten years to train him, and you can find a way to die in ten years. After Chu Yun finished speaking, Cui Ning's eyes flashed with emotion, Cui Ning was not only moved that Chu Yun left her ten years to accompany her son, but moved that Chu Yun was really thinking about Cui Repentance, and even arranged his background, he really wanted his son to become the successor, this is where Cui Ning was moved.
"Your Majesty, the concubine knows what to do. Cui Ning raised his head again and found that Chu Yun was gone.
Chu Yun returned to the heavenly prison and stayed alone for a while, without practicing or doing anything, just sitting alone. Today's choice of Cui Ning's fate Chu Yun is actually not a taste in his heart, her feelings for Cui Ning Chu Yun are very complicated, her love for herself is absolutely not mixed with any impurities, she can be said to be the woman who loves herself the most in this world, Chu Yun also reciprocated the favor and put her on the throne of the first person in the harem of the Iron Blood Army, even Su Jin, who saved her life, does not have her real power, and she also trusts her younger brother very much, it can be said that their Su family was the most powerful family in the Iron Blood Army back then, but what they repaid was betrayal. Although Chu Yun knew that Cui Ning had not betrayed him, but thinking about the fact that she had been ruined by countless men all these years in order to live for Cui Repentance, Chu Yun had a hatred in his heart, and he wanted to kill everyone in the world.
It can be seen from here that Chu Yun still loves Cui Ning, but Chu Yun must change Cui Cheng's identity to someone else and choose a woman from the Cui family as Cui Cheng's biological mother, which can make the people of the Ming Empire accept this prince to the greatest extent, and the daughter of the Cui family as Cui Cheng's mother, which will make him not have a little stain on his identity. If it was Cui Ning, even if Chu Yun agreed, then Ma Liang, Mo Han, Lu Zhong and other iron-blooded army veterans would not agree, they hated the Cui family sisters and brothers, and they would never accept that Cui Cheng was Cui Ning's child, which is why Cui Ning never went out and rarely saw guests. And Cui Ning's experience will become a stain on Cui Peng's life, and it will also become a stain on Chu Yun's life, although Chu Yun killed so many people and almost wiped out the insiders of the year, but who can guarantee that there will be no rumors and rumors? Moreover, the insiders who dealt with the Iron Blood Army back then did not all die.
Chu Yun is going to shape the emperor of the Ming Empire into a system similar to the Japanese emperor, the emperor is the god of the world, but the biological mother of the god is a woman who can be a husband? This is likely to become a big joke, and even shake the foundation of the Ming rule.
Chu Yun is a layman, what republican system, constitutional monarchy is rolled as far away as possible, Chu Yun is ready to leave his descendants a **** power system, if the previous generations are strong, then firmly hold the power of the empire. Even if they are in decline, because they are a symbol of divine power, at least they will not be wiped out, even if they are like the Japanese royal family, Chu Yun can accept it. Therefore, the scandal is absolutely not allowed by Chu Yun, but it will make Cui Ning suffer, and Chu Yun can only say that God will make people.
"Your Majesty, General Lu has returned to Chang'an. Hu Tiezhu cautiously walked in and said.
"Let him kneel outside the Daming Palace, and he is not allowed to get up without my orders. Chu Yun snorted coldly, of course he was here to punish Lu Zhong, after all, he had fought such a big defeat, but he was also trying to hide people's eyes and ears, so that all enemies would lower their attention to Lu Zhong, so as to realize the plan of destroying Qiu Chi Kingdom. Da Ming attaches great importance to intelligence and has made a series of achievements, other countries are not stupid, they are also paying more and more attention to intelligence, in the past, Chu Yun trusted the Supervision Department and Jinyiwei very much, but after the defeat of Da Liang this time, Chu Yun also figured it out, there is no foolproof intelligence network, so some things need to be extra careful.
Lu Zhong, the first general of the entire Ming Dynasty and one of the three generals of the Ming Dynasty, knelt outside the Daming Palace and became the topic of the entire Chang'an, many people who thought they were smart felt that the Lu family was going to fall, although the Lu family was not the top family in Daming, but it was also a first-class family. If it weren't for the fact that there were too few children in their Lu family, their family would definitely be in the top three. Lu Zhong is a general, the trust of Chu Yun, who is high and powerful, Lu Zhong's eldest son Lu Ao, who has been lost for many years, is now the commander of the Iron and Blood Praetorian Guard, although he is only a fourth-grade military attaché, but he is His Majesty's most descendant troops, and he has a natural advantage over the military attachés outside, and if he is released, he will definitely be the commander of an army. And the youngest son Lu Zhan worships You Ziyuan and Wen Qiao as teachers, and he has an extraordinary future in literature and martial arts, and now he is in charge of the Privy Council's recruit room, and has a certain amount of power to train soldiers. It can be said that their Lu family is also a role that can make the army tremble by stomping their feet, if it weren't for the fact that no one in their family served as a civilian official, their family would definitely go to the next level. However, this may also be that the Lu family is smart, they both have great power in civil and military affairs, what will Chu Yun think? Therefore, only the development of the army is the most suitable for them.
Lu Zhong has a straightforward personality and is straightforward, many times he is unsentimental and businesslike, and he doesn't know how many people he has offended. In the past, they didn't dare to offend the Lu family, but now that Lu Zhong was defeated and Tian's grace was not there, many people began to fall into the ground. Lu Zhong kneeling outside the Daming Palace was spread by these people, but the Chang'an Order, the Supervision Department, and the Jinyiwei institutions that controlled public opinion did not take any action, and everyone decided that Lu Zhong had really fallen out of favor.
Lu Zhong knelt for a whole afternoon plus a night, which completely confirmed the rumors that he had fallen out of favor, and of course the news was quickly transmitted to various countries. In fact, don't look at Lu Zhong who hasn't won many battles, but he is not without military achievements. He led the army to contend with Da Zhao many times, and in the more than ten years after the founding of the Ming Dynasty, he spent most of his time sitting on one side, so that Da Zhao did not get a little cheap on him, and several of Da Zhao's generals did not get a little cheap on him, this is the ability. Therefore, although the other two generals Xie Ai and Wang Jie can win the battle, Lu Zhong is definitely the number one general in the Ming Dynasty, if he really falls, then other countries will definitely celebrate with the crown, not to mention the rulers of other Great Zhao.
The next morning, Chu Yun summoned Lu Zhong, Chu Yun's roar could even be heard by the inner servants a few hundred meters away, many of these people were the eyes of the ministers and other countries, which were deliberately left by the Supervision Department and Jinyiwei, the purpose of course was to ask them to send false news out. As the news spreads, many countries have determined that the first military general of the Ming Dynasty is really going to step down.
