Chapter 204 I have a very important news to tell you

When Lu Chen came to the study, Chu Xiong was standing at the door of the study. After seeing Lu Chen coming, Chu Xiong immediately said: "The common people pay homage to the prince!"

Lu Chen hurried over and held Chu Xiong's arms and said, "Grandpa, what are you doing? You don't need to salute me when we meet in private.

Chu Xiong was about to say something about etiquette that cannot be abolished, but was interrupted by Lu Chen, who continued: "Grandpa, you should have seen the assassin last night, right?"

Hearing Lu Chen's question, Chu Xiong sighed, and then said, "I saw it. I didn't expect that after I left the Chu family, they would do such a heinous thing."

Lu Chen said with a smile on his face: "What I did in the North Country has touched their bottom line. It is not surprising that they would do such a thing. After all, the Chu family is also one of the aristocratic families, and it is also the largest aristocratic family among the Jiangnan aristocratic families. "

Chu Xiong said: "Today's Chu family has fallen apart and can no longer be regarded as the top Jiangnan family."

Lu Chen said: "Grandpa, how have you considered what I told you before?"

"If the Chu family who follow you are willing to come to the Northern Kingdom, I can give the Chu family a piece of land for free. Of course, according to the laws of the Northern Kingdom, the Chu family only has the right to use it."

"But grandpa, you should understand that once the reform of the Northern Kingdom is completed, land will no longer be as important in the Northern Kingdom as before. The Chu family's future development does not necessarily rely on land."

Chu Xiong said: "I plan to return to Sufeng City tomorrow, but if I bring the Chu family to the North, I'm afraid there will be great resistance."

After all, he is the former head of the Chu family, and there must be many people following him. If he leaves the Chu family, the strength of the Chu family will be greatly weakened in the future. First of all, the new head of the Chu family will definitely not do it.

Secondly, now is the critical time for the Jiangnan Family to deal with the emperor. If the Chu family leaves so many people at once, it will mean that the strength of the Jiangnan Family has been weakened.

If it were in the past, those Jiangnan aristocratic families would definitely be very happy to see the Chu family's strength weakened, but today is different from the past. If the Jiangnan aristocratic family's power is weakened, Emperor Xia is likely to be interested in them.

So at least the Jiangnan family cannot be weakened now, and other families will certainly not let the Chu family leave Jiangnan and Sufeng City.

If Chu Xiong wants to lead his people to leave Sufeng City, there is another possible resistance, and that is Emperor Xia. Emperor Xia may not be happy to see the Chu family come to the north.

Although part of the Chu family went to the North to weaken the Jiangnan family, Emperor Xia was more suspicious. He might have been thinking about whether the Chu family had some other purpose in going to the North.

In a word, it is not easy for the Chu family to leave Jiangnan.

Hearing Chu Xiong's words, Lu Chen thought for a while and then said: "Grandpa, if you have any difficulties, you can ask my people for help. They will assist you in moving to the North."

At present, the Jinyiwei are all over Sufeng City, and the intelligence work in the Jiangnan area is very good. If there is any trouble in other aristocratic families, the Jinyiwei will soon know, and the Jinyiwei will be able to cover the Chu family's departure from Sufeng City to a certain extent.

Chu Xiong said: "Then I'll trouble you."

"I will go back today. I will send someone to inform you before we move to the North Country."

Lu Chen said: "Okay."

Then Chu Xiong left Beiwang Mansion.

Not long after Chu Xiong left, a vixen appeared at the door of the study room, leaning against the door frame of the door, perfectly highlighting her S-shaped waist.

"My lord, such a big thing happened last night. Why didn't you tell the slave family? If the slave family hadn't heard from my servants today, they wouldn't have known that such a big thing happened in Yancheng last night."

Seeing that Wang Qingci had returned, Lu Chen smiled and said, "Big deal? What big deal? It's just dealing with a group of petty thieves, it's not a big deal."

Having said this, Lu Chen glanced at Wang Qingci's graceful body and continued, "Do you have any information when you come back today?"

Wang Qingci said: "There is indeed a very important piece of information, and it is information that is likely to affect Daxia."

Hearing this, Lu Chen was stunned for a moment. Will it affect Daxia?

After Lu Chen came to his senses, he immediately walked towards the study. Just now he and Chu Xiong were standing in the courtyard while talking, without even entering the study door.

Since Wang Qingci said it was a very important matter, it would be better to discuss it in the study.

"Come in and tell me what's going on in detail."

Wang Qingci then followed Lu Chen into the study. After entering the study, Wang Qingci took the initiative to close the door, then took out a piece of information from his sleeve and placed it on Lu Chen's desk.

Lu Chen picked up the information, opened it and looked at it carefully. The corners of his mouth gradually raised, but soon his expression became serious again. He finally understood why Wang Qingci said that this information would affect Daxia. .

Wang Qingci said at this time: "It is normal for Dawu to launch wars with foreign countries every year and provoke civil unrest. If they had not launched a war against Daxia this time, they might not have led to civil unrest so quickly. I am afraid Dawu would not have I don’t want to deal with Daxia anymore.”

The content of the intelligence was about what happened recently in the Dawu Dynasty. Peasant uprisings broke out in two counties in the southwest corner of the Dawu Dynasty, and they were supported by the regular army of the Dawu Dynasty. The regular army and the peasant uprising army united to attack the Qing emperor under the slogan Heading to Dawu Imperial City.

It would be okay if there were only two counties, but now many counties in the Dawu Dynasty are ready to take action, especially the vassal kings.

It won't be long before the civil war in Dawu breaks out. To be precise, the civil war in Dawu broke out at the moment of the peasant uprising.

Lu Chen was a little happy to see the civil war in Dawu, but he soon realized that once the civil war broke out in Dawu, the external pressure on Daxia would disappear instantly.

Without external pressure in Daxia, my father may be preparing to attack the aristocratic family. If there is a civil war, Daxia will be next.

"In addition to the Dawu Dynasty, there is another piece of information from the Nu family, but this information is not as important as the outbreak of civil war in the Dawu Dynasty, and it has not been confirmed, there are just some rumors."

After he finished speaking, Wang Qingci took out another piece of information from his sleeve and placed it on Lu Chen's desk.

Lu Chen opened another piece of information Wang Qingci gave him, glanced at it, and the seriousness on his face disappeared. He turned to smile and said, "It seems that the development window of the North Country has come. God is really blessing me!"

The second piece of information given by Wang Qingci recorded some rumors heard by Tingyulou’s caravan in the territory of the Daqian Dynasty. It was rumored that a plague broke out in the south of the Daqian Dynasty. In order to prevent the plague from spreading, the Daqian Dynasty All the troops were mobilized to the south for epidemic prevention.

However, this matter is still under lockdown, and people have only heard some rumors, and there is no way to confirm whether the news is true.

At this time Wang Qingci continued: "Although we have not confirmed the authenticity of this news, judging from the fact that the Daqian Dynasty transferred soldiers from the Daxia border, I am afraid that something big happened in the south of the Daqian Dynasty. "

Originally, several major dynasties stationed troops on the border of Daxia at the same time, but when the war broke out, the Yue Dynasty stood still and the Daqian Dynasty transferred their soldiers back. Only the Dawu Dynasty launched an attack on the Daxia Dynasty.

Now the Dawu Dynasty has no intention of dealing with Daxia, and there is only one Dayue left. However, judging from the current situation of Dayue, Dayue will not expand externally for a while.

The empress of Dayue has just ascended the throne, and like the Northern Kingdom, they also face the threat of barbarians from the north. If the Dayue Dynasty expands to the south at this time, and the barbarians move south, it is uncertain whether Dayue's imperial city can be saved. .

Now the three major dynasties bordering the Daxia Dynasty all have their own affairs to deal with. In this way, all external pressure on Daxia is gone.

Once there is no external pressure, the conflicts that were previously squeezed internally will break out.

Chaos in the world is a great thing for the Northern Kingdom. The Northern Kingdom is on the edge. The chaos of other dynasties will not have much impact on the Northern Kingdom. The only impact may be that many refugees will come to the Northern Kingdom.

But refugees coming to the North Country is exactly what Lu Chen wants to see. The population of the North Country happens to be relatively small. The refugees come to the North Country to replenish the population of the North Country. Of course, the management pressure may be relatively high at that time.

So in the final analysis, the biggest problem facing the North is still too few civil servants.

After the Chu family arrives, Lu Chen plans to use some of the Chu family as officials. The split Chu family does not pose much of a threat, but he is not worried that the Chu family will form a new power in the Northern Kingdom.

After the Chu family came to the Northern Kingdom, they had no support in the Northern Kingdom and could only stand on the side of the Northern Palace. There was no big problem in using the Chu family's people.

The key is that the military power and economic lifeline of the Northern Kingdom are now controlled by the Northern Palace, which is why Lu Chen has such confidence.

If he is just a prince with nothing now, and he uses people from the Chu family as officials, he may be ignored by the officials of the Chu family. This is the dilemma Daxia is facing now.

The current imperial court is like this, using officials from aristocratic families, but as a result, Emperor Xia's orders cannot even leave the capital.

At this time, Lu Chen looked at the two pieces of information on the table and pondered for a moment, and then said to Wang Qingci: "Continue to send people to inquire about the situation of the Daqian Dynasty. I want to get the exact information to see if the Daqian Dynasty is real. Something happened."

Wang Qingci said: "Okay, Your Majesty."

Having said this, Wang Qingci took a serious look at Lu Chen. For some reason, she suddenly felt that Lu Chen seemed to have become more handsome today, and he had also become taller and stronger.

Is it her imagination?

Wang Qingci couldn't help but wonder, was it because he hadn't been back for so long that he felt that Lu Chen's body had changed?

Just when Wang Qingci was thinking this, Lu Chen looked up at Wang Qingci. He found that Wang Qingci's eyes were staring directly at him. Originally, he had planned to ask the maid outside to inform Jin Yiwei and ask Yancheng to All the officials went to the meeting hall to discuss political affairs.

But seeing Wang Qingci staring at him affectionately, Lu Chen suddenly had some thoughts.

Lu Chen smiled and said: "Master Wang, why are you staring at me like this? Is there something on my face?"

After hearing Lu Chen's words, Wang Qingci, who was in a nymphomaniac state, came back to her senses. She quickly said, "No, I was thinking about something just now."

Lu Chen smiled and said, "Oh? You are thinking about something, what are you thinking about, and are you so absorbed in your thoughts? You can talk to me about it."

Wang Qingci said quietly: "The slave family is wondering why the prince seems to have grown taller again."

Lu Chen said calmly: "I am now growing taller. Isn't it normal for me to grow taller?"

Wang Qingci said: "What the prince said is that if there is nothing wrong with the prince, the slave family will leave first."

Wang Qingci was afraid that Lu Chen would have thoughts about him again later, so he planned to run away quickly.

Lu Chen said: "Master Wang, don't leave in a hurry. I have important news to tell you, and this news is more important to you personally."

Hearing Lu Chen's words, Wang Qingci was stunned for a moment.

Very important news to her?

What's the news?

Lu Chen's tone didn't sound like he was talking about something serious. Could it be some important news?

Lu Chen would not call her Lord Wang when talking about serious matters in front of her.

Although he guessed that it couldn't be anything serious, Wang Qingci still asked curiously: "I wonder what news the prince is going to say?"

Lu Chen smiled and said: "Come over to me. Not many people know about this matter yet. I will tell you quietly."

Seeing Lu Chen's harmless smile, Wang Qingci's legs could not help but tremble.

Did he really have some important news to tell him?

It’s not because I want to…

Wang Qingci then twisted her hips and came to Lu Chen, and said with a resentful look: "My lord, if you want to do something bad, just say it. You also made excuses by saying you have some important news to tell the slave family."

When Wang Qingci came to Lu Chen, she was already prepared to be pinned down by Lu Chen on the table. However, Lu Chen did not move his hands or feet, but whispered in her ear: "There is not much news about this yet." People know that Lord Wang, please don’t let it out, otherwise you will be severely punished by me.”

Seeing that Lu Chen didn't move anything, Wang Qingci suddenly felt very curious. Did Lu Chen really have any news to tell him?

She thought Lu Chen was like before, mouthing "Lou Zhu Wang" and then pressing herself on the table to clean up the next moment.

Wang Qingci immediately said: "My lord, please tell me that the slave family will keep it secret for you and will never let a third person know."

Lu Chen immediately said: "I have broken through to the Grand Master level, and my body has become stronger than before. Before, I could only stay up for one night at most, but now it is not a problem for me to stay up for several days and nights."

At this point, Lu Chen paused for a moment, then leaned close to Wang Qingci's ear and said into her ear hole: "I wonder if this news is important to you, Mr. Wang?"

Hearing Lu Chen's last words, Wang Qingci's face suddenly turned pale, and her delicate body could not help but tremble.
