The devil is coming

Chapter 740 The Harem
"Please forgive me, madam, please forgive me, madam!"
Fan Zhengwen knelt on the ground. This warm uncle of the Emperor of Yan was trembling with fear at this time, and there was no deception at all.
Because this is unreasonable, but this unreasonable thing is the most terrifying thing.
A businessman is best at seeing people. Fan Zhengwen once came into contact with Ping Xihou.
The ancestors of the Fan family who grew flowers in the greenhouse once asked Fan Zhengwen what he thought of the Marquis Pingxi.
Fan Zhengwen’s answer is:
Living in a temple, I hold everything in my hands, my shadow falls in the rivers and lakes, my feet trample my spirit;
What this means is that Lord Pingxi seems to have a very high status and a lot of power, but he has such a free and easy and heroic spirit that can only be found in Jianghu Caohuang.
When doing things, sometimes you can really rely on your enthusiasm and ignore the rules and conventions at all.
Destiny does not match destiny, power does not match power.
The business is not done, but the store is destroyed;
For example, he once risked his life to snatch the princess. It is obviously a story about heroes in teahouses and restaurants, but it really happened to the Marquis Pingxi.
But you must know that in the original stories, the protagonists were all destined to die. Although Ping Xihou was only an uncle at that time, he had already become successful.
Therefore at this moment,
Fan Zhengwen did not dare to cooperate with this kind of beating with a perfunctory attitude, but he had to be sincere and fearful.
He understood that if he didn't keep the posture of being beaten very upright, maybe the princess in front of him would not really kill him, let alone take the initiative to manipulate the Fan family, but if word spread to that In the ears of the prince, it is likely to evolve into:
What's the big picture?
What is the Yan-Chu stalemate?
What is the role of his Fan family?
What are these?
It's gone, it's gone,
It makes me happy.
Even the new king may not be able to stop Pingxi Marquis. After all, the county magistrate is not as good as the current one.
Fan Zhengwen has never served the emperor, but to a certain extent, his impression of Pingxi Marquis is that he is like accompanying an emperor like a tiger.
Whether it's life or death, God's will is my will, the Son of Heaven, inseparable, that's what it means, right?
It's a pity that Fan Zhengwen can't say these words, otherwise, he, Pingxi Marquis, would really like to hear this fresh and refined flattery from a different angle.
Because of a cup of herbal tea,
Half of the clan members who were in charge of the Fan Mansion were captured. Among them were many close relatives, including one of Fan Zhengwen's younger brothers.
One group was killed, another group was crippled, and another group was distributed;
The original joy in the mansion, and the joy that spread to the entire Fan City, were completely destroyed by this fierce and bloody smell.
At last,
Xiong Liqing even felt a little sorry in her heart.
They hit their own boards, and the blow was much harder than you expected. Even Fan Zhengwen had to bear the blame. He was not a martial artist. The skin on his back was ripped open, and it was a real pain.
You know, I have just become a relative of the emperor.
"Go back."
Facing the head of the Fan family like this, the princess really lost her temper.
"Thank you princess, thank you princess."
Fan Zhengwen retreated as if he had received an amnesty.
The princess stretched out her hand, rubbed her eyebrows, and said with emotion:
"I was in the palace before, and then I was taken to the house by my husband. Little did I know that I was always in a protected basket. Mr. Gou, I have always thought too highly of myself."
"Ma'am, you are serious."
"It's not that I'm being harsh, but the world outside is really scary. It's better to go back, learn more songs from Sister Ruqing, and concentrate on serving your husband."
obviously,
Fan Zhengwen's performance made the princess a little scared.
It's not that Fan Zhengwen has a grudge behind his back, it's just that he sees the gap between himself and this kind of truly "ruthless" and "capable person".
It's so dangerous outside, but at home, it's safe and warm.
"Madam, this Fan Zhengwen is just the head of the Fan family now, but his subordinates see his character and methods. In the future, even if he is promoted to the position of Prime Minister of Yan by the new monarch, it will not be surprising at all. In time, it is impossible to say that he will be another As for Zhao Jiulang, a person like this is not powerful, how could it be possible, but he is also rare in the world."
After all, outstanding people like Fan Zhengwen are not just cabbages on the roadside.
"When I see one, I feel tired. There's nothing to do outside. In fact, they either let me or coax me. It's boring."
"It's great that Madam can think like this, but Madam actually doesn't need to care too much about this, because there is already a big tree beside you to rely on.
In front of that big tree, Fan Zhengwen...
Oh no,
Just a subordinate,
It's just a speck of dust in the shadow of a big tree. "
"You are right, Mr. Gou."
Before the wedding, when she chose Zheng Fan instead of Qu Peiluo, some things had already been determined.
"The more you walk outside and see more, the more you will understand some truths. Mr. Gou should know that I am ambitious."
"To use what the Lord likes to say, Madam, this should be called...a dream."
"Perhaps so. How can a royal woman be willing to be mediocre? Since the outside is not suitable for me, then inside, I grew up in the palace, so I don't even understand this truth."
Gou Moli was a little confused.
He understands the ecology of the Hou's "harem". He believes that a smart woman like the princess would not take it for granted to engage in palace fighting in the Hou's harem.
After all, Mr. Feng is here.
Among the many gentlemen in the Hou Mansion, the one the Savage King feared the most was the blind man.
To a certain extent, the blind man is very similar to himself, but there is one difference. The blind man actually has no ambition;
I want to rebel and build a kingdom to rule the world. The purpose is actually very simple, just for fun.
It's like painting a painting with great effort, admiring it twice, and then burning it directly, purely for the process and the brilliance of the flames.
Without ambition, there are no fetters, and the talent is more pure. This is the most terrifying thing about a blind man in the eyes of the Savage King.
In ancient times, counselors were often under suspicion, and it was even rarer for those in the shadows to die well;
But this Lord had complete trust in the blind man.
Among the blind men, the second gentleman whom I fear the most is Mr. Feng.
Putting aside his own abilities, if he can almost perfectly match his master's personality, he is already in an invincible position.
Anyway,
Gou Moli believed that Xiong Liqing was no match for Mr. Feng in a palace fight.
Gou Moli felt that Xiong Liqing should have a deeper understanding of this than he did.
Xiong Liqing reached out and touched her belly.
Road:
"Mr. Gou thinks, what does the current husband lack?"
The territory is there.
We have troops and horses.
The reputation is there.
The team is also there.
What is missing?
There is a lack of inheritance.
If earlier, Marquis Zheng deliberately held back both the princess and Liu Ruqing in order to have his first time with Siniang, then after that, he had actually let go.
But, heir, it is no longer difficult.
For the real rich and powerful, the difficulty of having heirs means that they gave birth to several children, but could not raise them, died in infancy, or that they were all girls.
But here at Ping Xihou, the three women had no news at all and had no reaction at all.
If Ping Xihou is a tuberculosis, that's it.
But although Lord Pingxi is not as powerful as outsiders imagine, second only to King Jingnan in strength, at least he is a top-notch martial artist, and his physique is not worse than that of ordinary people.
Just like this, despite all the hard work, he still failed to leave any heirs.
Gou Moli licked his lips, and halfway through, he suddenly felt that this action was inappropriate at this time, so he immediately retracted his tongue and lowered his head.
It’s not clear how to answer.
How can I, as a "foreign official", get involved in matters involving the palace?
With the current status of the Pingxi Houfu vassal town, it has long been possible to apply the "royal" model to think about things.
"Mr. Gou." The princess urged again.
"The subordinates are here." Gou Moli felt a little tempted to withdraw at this moment, even if he went to apply the gold sore medicine on Fan Zhengwen's back in person. You and I would both feel disgusted when it happened, but you would greet each other with a smile. I am,
It's more appropriate than staying here.
"Tell me, what will happen if I become pregnant with my husband's child?"
"Of course it is. It is a joy and congratulations. Congratulations to the Lord, congratulations to my wife, and congratulations to my Pingxi Marquis Mansion!"
"Mr. Gou, what I want to hear is not just this."
"Madam, please forgive me for being stupid."
"Mr. Gou, have you ever thought about reviving your holy clan?"
"The Holy Clan is on the right path to revival."
"Do you want a better revival?"
"I did it in my dream."
"Not in a dream."
"Subordinate, dare not."
This cake is too big and too direct;
The Savage King is a little afraid to take it.
The princess continued to caress her belly,
Road:
"Now that the matter in Yanjing has been settled, I guess my husband's return is not far away."
"Yes, I guess the Lord will come back after the national mourning is taken care of."
According to Gou Moli's understanding of the Lord, the Lord is a person who will be very homesick after being away from home for a while.
"I will get pregnant this time."
"The Lord should have heirs. God's will and the stars will definitely favor the Lord and the ladies..."
"Do not……"
The princess looked at Gou Moli,
Seeing this made Gou Moli feel a little scared.
"Mr. Gou, some things are different before I am pregnant than after I am pregnant. If I am pregnant with a child, will Mr. Gou be willing to assist my child?"
"I am the young master, and I will serve as an assistant. I will dedicate myself to you until I die."
Gou Moli knelt down to show his loyalty.
But this was actually said beautifully.
"Sure, Mr. Gou is a cautious man, I know that, but what I said remains unchanged. The savage is now a dog led by his husband. Whether the chain can be untied depends on Mr. Gou himself.
I'm exhausted, so Ruqing doesn't have to bring the bird's nest anymore because I can't eat it. "
"I understand, madam. Please have a good rest."
Gou Moli stood up and prepared to leave.
But at this time,
The princess stopped him again,
Road:
"Oh, by the way, if there is an envoy from Chu State coming, I hope Mr. Gou will inform me first."
The official exchanges between Chu State and Ping Xihou Mansion have never been interrupted, and it is also in the name of the princess. Not to mention that the two sides have not broken out and started a war, even when the war started, they were relatives, after all, they were still relatives.
Just like the time when Lord Zheng led his army to surround the regent in the city,
The regent sent people to bring cakes and snacks to his sister-in-law every day.
Mr. Zheng also gave a gift of fresh fruits and vegetables for one person.
"Yes, my subordinate understands."
Gou Moli finally walked out of the hall. As a former barbarian king, he was good at running things, but he really didn't expect that one day he would be involved in such a struggle between harem forces.
Although it was still early and there were no shadows left, the wind started blowing in advance.
But he also believed that the princess would not act without aim.
It was difficult for the Lord to have an heir, so he only had a godson.
But a godson is a godson after all, even if he is Tian Wujing's son.
At this level of difficulty, it would be great to have an heir to pass on.
But the problem is,
How can you be so sure that you can get pregnant?
Gou Moli reached out and knocked on his head.
Ah,
This damn thing is even more brain-consuming than tricking the savage warriors into committing suicide before.
……
"kill!"
"kill!"
The Chu army broke through the mountain gate. From the bottom of the hillside to the stream, there were corpses of Shanyue people and a small number of Chu soldiers.
General Nian Yao walked up the stairs with blood stains on the soles of his boots.
In front of it, there is a cave.
Here,
It is a sacred place in Montenegro.
The Heishanhe tribe is a Shanyue tribe in the southern border of Chu State. The tribe has a population of nearly [-]. It can be said to be a small hegemon within a radius of a hundred miles.
But today,
However, they were defeated by General Nian Yao, who had returned from the southwest battlefield and concluded a peace treaty with the Qian Kingdom. He led his army and defeated them.
The war in the southwest is actually not complicated.
Ganren's main force and center of gravity were on three sides. Therefore, Ganren's defense in the southeast of his home was poor at first. The Chu army also fought very simply. It could be said that it was an attack on the city and territory, and it made rapid progress.
Afterwards, Ganren began to take advantage of their national strength, build new cities, and hold on to the city, unable to retreat.
This battle is not easy to fight. To be precise, it is not as smooth as it was at the beginning.
The Chu State's goal has been achieved. It has just been beaten by the Yan people, and the Yan people's Nanwang burned the capital of Ying. He turned around and beat the Gan people, diverted the domestic conflicts, vented his depression about Yan's defeat, and re-entered the country. Gather the confidence of the people and temples, and reshape the authority of the regent.
In short, Chu Ren's goal was achieved, and Gan Ren was used to being beaten anyway.
From the beginning to the end, the Gan people did not send the elites from the three sides back to support, and the Chu people had no intention of fighting all the way deep. In fact, everyone was afraid of the Yan Kingdom that dominated the north.
Now, they are at peace again. After all, Yan State is the real enemy of the two countries.
however,
No one expected it,
General Nian, who could have returned to the court with peace of mind to accept the reward, suddenly sent troops to attack the Heishanhe tribe on the way.
Even when the Heishanhe tribe saw the Chu army crossing the border, they took the initiative to send food and civilians in the tribe to help the Chu army transport ordnance, etc. Their attitude was extremely respectful.
But it was still destroyed.
General Nian personally led the army, and under his control were the elite Imperial Guards of Da Chu. They were the most elite divisions of Da Chu that had faced off against the cavalry led by King Da Yannan at Zhennanguan.
Heishanhebe struggled, but only twice.
In front of the cave in the Holy Land,
The great elder of the Black Mountain River tribe looked at the corpses of the tribesmen around him and cried loudly.
When he saw Nian Yao coming up,
He roared almost hysterically:
"Why do you want to destroy my tribe? Why do you want to destroy my tribe? Why!"
Obviously, the Heishanhe tribe has offered its loyalty to Da Chu and lowered its head to Da Chu.
But Chu people, why did they still cut off this knife!
The young general reached out and gently dusted off the blades on his shoulder armor. With a wave of his hand, several shamans entered the cave behind him.
In the Heishanhe River, there is a totem treasure, which is a plant called sparrow grass.
Its grass leaves can relieve miasma and eliminate plague.
Therefore, Heishan River can pick a certain amount of leaves every year. The value is similar to the Dahongpao that Ganren people are passionate about, and it is extremely valuable.
Every year, the Heishanhe tribe actually pays part of its tribute to the Chu court.
"General, General, what did our troops do wrong? What did we do wrong?" the great elder continued to cry.
Nian Yao shook his head,
Road:
"The imperial decree ordered your tribe to offer the call grass, but your tribe refused. If you disobey the decree, you will be exterminated."
"But what the court wants is the whole grass. This is the lifeblood of my ministry. How can I hand it over?"
"Yes, so I, the general, came to get it myself."
at this time,
The wizards who had entered the cave earlier came out with a jar in their hands. The jar contained bird call grass, and they had uprooted it and put it in it.
When the great elder saw this scene, his face was ashen. This grass, just one plant, once its roots are removed, will never survive again.
"You damn Chu people!"
The great elder roared and rushed towards Nian Yao with his seriously injured body.
Nian Yao directly grabbed the great elder's neck with one hand, and then pressed down.
"Crack!"
hand,
release,
The great elder's body slumped to the ground.
The young general clapped his hands,
ordered:
"The Heishanhe tribe colluded with people and had evil intentions. This general learned about it, so he sent troops to exterminate the clan as a warning to others."
All the Chinese military officials immediately nodded in agreement.
then,
The general's eyes fell on the jars held by the wizards.
The dignified first general of Chu,
Personally lead an army to conquer the Shanyue tribe in a place,
Just to obey the emperor's order, take this grass.
The world only knows the effectiveness of its leaves.
However, the notes of the sages of the Great Chu Dynasty and the Great Wuzheng recorded that the rhizome of the Bird Calling Herb was used as medicine, and the essence of heaven and earth was gathered to refine it into the Bird Calling Pill;
This elixir,
Can assist pregnancy.
The young general is fully armored,
Sitting on the steps,
reach out,
Rubbing his face.
I don’t know what King Yannan, whom I regard as a role model, is doing now.
But anyway,
My current self, what I am doing;
"Ouch,
It’s really embarrassing…”
