Chapter 653 Collecting Queens
Chapter 653 Collecting Queen
"This woman is a bit unique. No wonder Wang Xuba and Wei Daoer brothers turned against each other and fought each other in the end. It really made people feel that they were indescribable and unclear after seeing her. Although she was a woman from a farmer, why do I think she is more attractive than those young ladies of aristocratic families?" Lu Shichong looked at Dou Hongxin's distant background and stroked the bearded face.
Guo Xiaoke, who was beside him, patted his shoulder heavily and whispered, "I said Lao Lu, your children can almost form a team, and my concubines are almost in a group. You are still looking around and have a lot of ideas."
Lu Shishen laughed a few times. He got married early. Before he joined the Liao army with Chen Pojun, he had already married his wife and had two children. In the years, during the war, he did not forget the great event of inheriting the family line and thriving offspring. The concubines were married one by one, and the sons and daughters were born one by one. So far, there are nine wives and concubines in total, which is not the ones that have no status. There are more children. According to him, the total number of big and small plus illegitimate children is almost forty.
The colleagues in the army all laughed at him as studded, but he didn't care. He was obsessed with the woman he liked. And he also had a characteristic: as long as he liked, he didn't care whether he was a yellow girl, a widow in the door, or a half-old Xu girl. Even whether he was a Han woman or a foreign woman on the grassland, he would find a way to get it back. Fortunately, Chen Kefu said a few times, but he had an unwritten habit, that is, he never had to be strong. If the other party really refused to follow, he didn't have to be strong either.
When Guo Xiaoke saw Lu Shishen's appearance, he knew that he must have had a 70% or 80% intention in his heart. He reminded him, "I said, Lao Lu, your head cannot be led by the thing below. Although this Dou family woman is good, she is the queen of Yan State. How could such a woman be taken into the mansion by a minister? Secondly, when did you see that Your Highness would say such a big nonsense to a prisoner?"
Lu Shishen was shocked and turned his head to look ahead. Chen Kefu was still standing there, looking up at the sky, as if he was a little unhappy. He couldn't help but wake up and pulled Guo Xiaoke and said, "Well, your highness is interesting to this Miss Dou?"
Guo Xiaoke lowered his voice and looked around again. Seeing that everyone else was a little far away, he said, "It goes without saying that Dou Hongxian and Li Shimin plotted to murder Your Highness together. You see, Your Highness is ruthless to Li Shimin? Didn't he force Li Yuan to kill him in public? But you see, Your Highness not only talks to Dou Hongxian, but also has no sense of embarrassment. He even sent someone to arrange to take care of her. This is not a prisoner, he is simply a VIP."
"Then eight-nine are there." Lu Shishen nodded and pulled Guo Xiaoke mysteriously, "Once I heard that your highness and Empress Xiao have an affair. I don't believe it. Seeing this today, Your Highness is probably like this kind of queen and princess. Fortunately, you remind me, otherwise, my old Lu would have gone to compete with Your Highness for a woman. Isn't you looking for a fight?"
Guo Xiaoke on the other side opened his mouth in surprise and couldn't say a word. He didn't expect that he would hear such a big gossip today, and immediately reached out to cover Lu Shishen's mouth, "You're going to die, you can also talk nonsense. No matter whether the matter is true or false, you must not spread it to the public. I have never heard of anything just now, and you have never said anything, remember?"
Lu Shishen nodded, and Guo Xiaoke took his hand back. In fact, Lu Shishen just spoke quickly just now, and he said it when he spoke. As soon as he said it, he lost his words. Fortunately, Lao Guo is a cautious person. If he encounters a frivolous person, if it is spread, King Chen will not spare them lightly.
The two of them breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. They looked at Chen Kefu with guilt, but saw him talking to Fang Xuanzao. Although they were a little far apart, they could still hear King Chen's voice loud. They even kicked Fang Xuanzao in front of everyone, and then seemed to be very angry and ordered the guard to drag the screaming Fang Xuanzao away.
Seeing that King Chen was so big a difference between Dou Hongxin and Fang Xuanzao, the two looked at each other in their hearts, confirming the guess just now.
Afterwards, Chen Ke reported to take all the spies he had actually captured back to the fleet for strict interrogation.
As soon as he returned to the Anlan flagship, Chen Kefu immediately called Chen Lei, "Immediately invite Changsun Shunde, remember to be more secretive, don't let others see it, especially don't let Li Yuan and others discover it. In addition, bring Fang Xuanzao, and be more secret."
"Yes." Chen Lei bowed and took the order and left.
In the cabin on the fifth floor of the Anlan, only Chen Kefu, Zhang Zhongjian, Guo Xiaoke, Lu Shishen, Cheng Yaojin, Qin Qiong, Luo Shixin and other generals were left. Since Li Xiuning learned about the dinner, she had already gone to the Lingbo to take care of her father Li Yuan.
"This trip to Mengjin has really achieved great success, which is a joyful congratulation." Guo Xiaoke bowed to Chen Kefu.
Chen Kefu smiled. This trip to the Communist Party had indeed made many unexpected gains. He originally wanted to temporarily form an alliance with Wang Shichong and ask him to help restrain Li Mi's power. By the way, he controlled Li Yuan and his son to seize Hedong. However, he did not expect that things had become like this. Wang Shichong, a generation of heroes who had always feared, was actually under Li Shimin's poisonous wine, and Li Shimin, who was right with him everywhere, was also forced to kill him by his father Li Yuan.
Although Li Yuan was not dead, he had only two days left. What surprised him even more was that during this trip, he even captured the envoy sent by Wei and Yan to secretly form an alliance with Li Shimin.
"It's really gratifying. Things are developing in the direction we expect. Now Hedong is already a mess. Although heroes from all sides gather, it's hard for anyone to swallow such a piece of fat in a short period of time. And we have now held the Li family in our hands. We only wait for two days to die when Li Yuan and his son die. By then, the disabled forces of the Li family in Hedong can only rely on me. Hedong is ours after all."
"Hedong is ours." Everyone agreed loudly. Since Li Jing and King Chen decided to take over the world, the generals of the Hebei Army have long understood the importance of Hedong to the court.
"The general situation in Hedong has been settled, and the Central Plains is also expected. The situation is now beneficial to me everywhere. I just received a memorial from Beijing Fang Xuanling and other prime ministers. In March of late spring, Liaodong, western Liaoning, Hebei, Shandong, Huaibei, even Shiwei, Danluo, Liuqiu and other places under the control of the court have fully launched spring plowing and planting, and the amount of land cultivated far exceeds the figures estimated by the court at the end of last year. As long as the summer grain is ripe, our court will not have to worry about food waste within two years."
Zhang Zhongjian was also very happy and said with a smile, "I have surplus food for my family, so I'm not panicked. Now, this year, our navy will no longer be transformed into pirates and rob the various countries on the sea along the coast. The navy can finally take time to strengthen training. King Chen, I am preparing to reorganize the navy's Hailong Guard into four major fleets, namely Anlan, Zhenhai, Lingbo, and Nutao. Among them, the two major fleets of Zhenhai and Nutao are stationed on Luozhou Island and Liuzhou Island, respectively, and are maritime fleets. Anlan fleet is stationed in Jiangdu County, Huaibei, Hudouzhou at the mouth of the Yangtze River, and specialize in patrolling the Yangtze River and inland lakes. The Lingbo fleet is stationed in Beisha Port, Liaozhou, responsible for the coastal waters of Shandong Hebei, the Yellow River and canal waterways."
Chen Kefu just thought for a while and nodded in agreement. In this way, among the four fleets, Zhenhai and Nuhai will be converted into offshore fleets. Anlan and Lingbo fleets will be converted into inland naval fleets. The four major naval divisions, divided their responsibilities, stationed in the north and south, can also check and balance each other.
"Okay, as you said, you can write a detailed note and hand it to me later, and copy two copies to the capital. One to the Secretariat and the other to the General Staff."
"Yes." Zhang Zhongjian was very happy to see Chen Kefu follow the good.
After talking about some other things, Chen Lei had already brought Changsun Shunde outside.
When Chen Kefu heard that Changsun Shunde had arrived, he immediately stood up and quickly walked to greet him.
Changsun Shunde was only over forty years old, and he was strong. However, at this time, he felt a little uneasy. Standing outside the cabin door, his head lowered to look at the tip of his shoes, and he did not dare to look up. He was not wearing an official robe, but wearing a simple linen cloth. However, as a descendant of the Xianbei, he was very tall and burly. Chen Kefu had already investigated Wugui's uncle. After knowing that he was born in a noble family, his fathers all entered the court as officials, and he also respected his honorary guards when he was young.
Moreover, he not only inherited the blood of the Changsun family, but also inherited the martial arts and strong genes of the Changsun family. He is both civil and military, and is a real talent. Before Chen Kefu arrived in Mengjin, he had already sent a letter to Changsun Wugui and Changsun Wuji to him. When Changsun Shunde followed Li Yuan to Mengjin, he sent someone to secretly deliver the letter from Wugui brothers and sisters and his own handwritten letter to him.
Later, after waiting for a long time but not seeing a reply, he thought Changsun Shunde was determined to follow Li Yuan and his son. However, he did not expect that when he was at ease, he sent a secret letter. If it weren't for him, Chen Kefu probably wouldn't have discovered Li Shimin's plan. Although he wouldn't have been caught by Li Shimin's plan, he would not have achieved such good results as he is now. Therefore, for a talent like Changsun Shunde, Chen Kefu no longer simply regarded him as Princess Chen's uncle.
"I hope to see Lord Changsun, I am looking forward to the rain. Today I finally hope to meet each other. I am so happy. Please come in quickly." Chen Kefu smiled. When he saw Changsun Shunde, he immediately seemed to be an old friend who had been together for a long time. He grabbed his hand, held it and looked into the cabin. Changsun Shunde was so flattered and surprised.
