Chapter 51 Lu Chen also has a special identity

After hearing Mu Zixuan's suggestion, Lu Chen's eyes lit up and he felt that this method was feasible.

At first, his eyes were limited to Beijun, mainly because he was not strong enough yet and he did not want to be too high-profile.

Moreover, he had just come to Beijun at that time and was still very poor. Even if he issued an announcement to choose a concubine, beautiful girls from other fiefdoms might not come to Beijun.

Nowadays, Beiwangfu's soap, perfume, and soap products have spread all over the Great Xia Dynasty, and many people know that Beiwangfu is rich.

If the concubine selection announcement is issued at this time, many big families will definitely be interested and send beautiful girls from their families to the North Prince's Mansion.

As long as there are enough people, there will always be someone with a score of over ninety points.

After Lu Chen was silent for a while, he said to Mu Zixuan: "Okay, then just follow what my beloved concubine said."

Seeing that Lu Chen agreed, Mu Zixuan immediately said: "My lord, can you leave the matter of choosing a concubine to me?"

Lu Chen hugged Mu Zixuan's body, stroked her hair and said, "You just gave birth to a baby not long ago, you should take good care of yourself."

Although Lu Chen is a scumbag, he is not such a beast. His own princess just gave birth to a child and he made her busy and asked her to help take in concubines. What is it like?

Mu Zixuan said: "I want to share the burden for you, Your Majesty, please leave this matter to me."

Speaking of this, Mu Zixuan looked straight at Lu Chen with her bright eyes.

Seeing Mu Zixuan's eyes, Lu Chen felt a little touched in his heart and couldn't bear to refuse, so he had to say: "Okay, I'll worry about the concubine, but I need to be present in person on the day of choosing the concubine.

Seeing that Lu Chen agreed to let her take over the concubinage matter, Mu Zixuan was very happy. She immediately said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty. When choosing a concubine, I will definitely let you choose it yourself."

…

A few days later.

The Beiwang Mansion issued a concubinage announcement to the entire Daxia Dynasty.

As soon as the concubinage announcement was issued, Lu Chen was scolded by the people of the Great Xia Dynasty.

Not many people in Beijun thought this was a big deal. After all, King Bei didn't do anything to trouble the people after coming to Beijun.

Moreover, Beiwangfu seems to have recently cultivated grain seeds that can produce a thousand kilograms per mu. Beiwangfu has already had people try planting them in various places in Beijun.

If this kind of food called potatoes is popularized, then the entire North County will no longer be short of food, so the people of Bei County will be tolerant of Lu Chen's indulgence.

Of course, the most critical point is that the people of Beijun are all in Lu Chen's fiefdom. Lu Chen is the king of Beijun, and no one dares to scold their king in the fiefdom unless they don't want to live anymore.

It was different in other territories. Most people in the Daxia Dynasty believed that the Northern King indulged in promiscuity and was fatuous and incompetent.

They had long heard that King Bei kept many beautiful concubines in his palace, and they spent their days having fun and enjoying wine and meat.

There are already so many beautiful concubines in the Northern King's capital, but they still want to take concubines, and they have to face all the territories of the Great Xia Dynasty to take concubines.

Is it possible that King Bei has already played with all the beautiful girls in Bei County and is tired of playing with them, so he wants to harm the girls in other vassal kings' territories again?

Thinking of this, some upper-class literati and flirtatious people became very angry. If King Bei sent all the beautiful girls to King Bei's Mansion, how could they keep concubines?

For a time, literati from various places wrote articles criticizing the Northern King.

At the same time, there were also remarks about impeaching the Northern King in the court of Daxia.

The court officials impeached King Bei, naturally not because they were worried that King Bei would steal their women. Generally, things that were brought to court had political reasons.

Most of those who impeached the Northern King were officials from the Eighth Prince Lu Shuyun's faction. As for the purpose, it was mainly to belittle Lu Chen.

Although the Chu family has basically no contact with the Northern King, as long as there is that blood relationship, officials from Lu Shuyun's faction will not miss any opportunity to slander the Northern King.

It's not that they thought that if Lu Chen was impeached, Lu Chen would be deprived of the throne.

The vassal kings of the Daxia Dynasty were not easily deprived of their thrones, unless they rebelled or committed betrayal of the Daxia Dynasty.

For someone like King Bei who did not do anything wrong in Tibet, but just stayed in his own palace to have fun, the court would not care about him. Emperor Xia wished that the Great Xia Dynasty would all have vassal kings like Lu Chen.

If the Great Xia Dynasty had vassal kings like Lu Chen, then the Xia Emperor would be able to control the entire Great Xia more easily.

Faced with Yan Guan's impeachment of Lu Chen, Emperor Xia didn't take it seriously at all. The recent events in the capital were the most important. As for King Bei, as long as he didn't rebel, what he did in Bei County had nothing to do with the court.

After leaving the court, Emperor Xia went to the Imperial Garden.

Emperor Xia didn't take the commotion in the court seriously, and it was time to deal with business after the court.

At this moment, Imperial Master Situ Ce was already waiting in the pavilion.

Unlike the ministers in the court, the Imperial Master does not have to go to court. This is the prerogative of the Grand Master.

When Emperor Xia appeared in the pavilion, a shadow guard wearing black armor appeared in front of him, "Your Majesty, I have found out that the remnants of the Chen Kingdom entered the palace not to assassinate you, but to find something. .”

Since the remnants of the Chen State entered the palace, Emperor Xia sent people to investigate the purpose of the remnants of the Chen State entering the palace.

He didn't believe that the remnants of the Chen Kingdom would be so stupid, daring to enter the palace to assassinate him when there were only two half-step masters. That was no different from committing suicide.

After hearing the Shadow Guard's words, Emperor Xia narrowed his eyes slightly. As he thought, the remnants of the Chen Kingdom did not want to assassinate him, but had an ulterior motive.

At this time, Emperor Xia asked Situ Ce in the pavilion, "What does the Imperial Master think the remnants of the Chen Kingdom are looking for when they enter the palace?"

Situ Ce said: "The only thing that can make the remnants of the Chen Kingdom take such a big risk to enter the palace to look for it is the Chen Kingdom's jade seal."

"It is rumored that the Jade Seal of the Chen State is the key to the Chen State's treasure house. After Daxia captured the Chen State, the location of the Chen State's treasure house has not been found, but I believe that the remnants of the Chen State's royal family must know about it. "

"If the Chen State wants to recover, it needs money to recruit troops and horses, so they should be eager to open the Chen State's treasury and take out the gold and silver treasures inside."

After hearing what Situ Ce said, Emperor Xia snorted coldly and said, "Even I don't know where the Jade Seal of the State of Chen is. They actually want to come to the palace to look for the Jade Seal of the State of Chen. It's simply ridiculous!"

At this time, the shadow guard in front of Emperor Xia continued: "Your Majesty, my subordinates also found out one more thing."

Emperor Xia said calmly: "Tell me."

The commander of the shadow guards immediately said: "My subordinates found out that the remnants of the Chen Kingdom seem to be related to Xuanyue Palace. After the remnants of the Chen Kingdom disappeared, the disciples of Xuanyue Palace appeared in the place where they last appeared."

Upon hearing the words Xuanyue Palace, Emperor Xia's face darkened instantly, as if the words Xuanyue Palace touched something he didn't want to recall.

Emperor Xia then said: "I understand."

Having said this, Emperor Xia immediately asked, "How is Xiaojiu doing?"

The commander of the Shadow Guard replied: "After the Ninth Prince went to Beijun, he had fun in the palace every day. There was nothing unusual. In addition, the Ninth Prince's princess gave birth to the prince a few days ago."

After listening to the report from the Shadow Guard Commander, Emperor Xia said calmly: "Okay, you can go down."

"Yes, Your Majesty, I am resigning."

After the Shadow Guard Commander left, Emperor Xia clasped his hands behind his back and looked at the fish swimming in the lotus pond and said: "National Master, why do I feel that the grandmaster next to Xiao Jiu was not sent by Chu Xiong, but instead seemed to be placed under his control by Xuanyue Palace?" Around."

Lu Chen's mother, Chu Yue, was once a member of Xuanyue Palace and was also the goddess of Xuanyue Palace.

Emperor Xia didn't think about Xuanyue Palace at first. It wasn't until the Shadow Guard Commander mentioned it just now that he realized that Lu Chen had a special identity.

I've been sick these days, so updates are slow. I'll update after a while.
