...

The thrilling Hongmen Banquet finally came to an end. When the Wei clan stepped out of Zhaohua Palace tremblingly, he found that the clothes behind him had already been soaked in cold sweat.

Liu Ce stood on the high steps and watched the group of Wei clans leave together, with hands on their backs and an unpredictable expression on his face.

He believed that after today's scene, these former royal people would put away their little thoughts, and at least they would never dare to have any other intentions in their lifetime.

The so-called murder and heart-killing are probably the scene in front of you. After all, from the outside, Wei Jiong was unanimously sentenced to death by the royal family, but he did not interfere at all.

"King of Han, can I say a few words to the second wife..."

Just when Liu Ce was still immersed in his skill, Wei Ji quietly asked to meet Song Yanran in his ear.

Liu Ce looked at Wei Ji's head full of blue and swollen mass, and his heart was speechless. It was amazing that Wei Ji's body, as if he was a prince, would be beaten up by Chen Biyi's wife, as such a virtue.

Liu Ceqiang smiled and said to Wei Ji: "Zhu Jing is in the palace. If the prince has something to do, it's okay to go."

"Then I would like to thank King Han..."

After Wei Ji thanked him, he covered his face and moved his fat body and walked into Zhaohua Palace to find Song Yanran.

"Madam Song, can you speak with me?"

Song Yanran in the hall was just helping the palace maid to prepare to go back to Jiang Ruoyan. Xue Ruoyuan went back to her bedroom together. When she saw Wei Ji looking for her, she said to Jiang Ruoyan with apologies: "Sister, take the lead, I will tell you something to the prince, and then come."

Jiang Ruoyan glanced at Song Yanran, glanced at Wei Ji again, and replied to Song Yanran, "Sister, just go there if you have something to do, don't care..."

After saying that, he left with Xue Ruyuan under the service of the palace maid.

After Jiang Ruoyan left, Song Yanran asked Wei Ji in a low voice: "Your Majesty, why do you want me?"

Wei Ji rubbed his hands and said with a fat face flushed: "Madam Song, I don't know how to speak. I'm sorry to say this, hehe..."

Song Yanran frowned slightly: "If the prince doesn't know how to speak, then why not wait until he thinks about it next time. If nothing else, I will go back first..."

Seeing that Song Yanran was about to leave, Wei Ji hurriedly stopped her and said, "Madam Song, don't rush to leave, I said that..."

He sighed and said, "Mrs. Song, I will tell you that this king is difficult, it is really difficult. Please give me a judgment. I am a dignified prince after all.

But I don’t want to fall into such a field now. Look at my face. Just today, I am ridiculed by others on my way to attend the Zhaohua Palace Conference..."

Upon hearing this, Song Yanran couldn't help but smile, and the palace maid next to her was also holding her smile.

The day before yesterday, the story of Chen Bi's big fuss in Baihua Garden quickly spread in the main urban area of ​​Shendu like a plague. Many scholars, officials and ordinary residents were shocked to hear the news.

Everyone cannot understand that the dignified prince just went to a brothel and relaxed, so why was he so cruel to the princess? This is too much of a problem, and it is also an unheard of news that has never been heard of for more than 370 years since the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

There are also many pedantic students who beat their chests and stamped their feet, saying that this move is equivalent to losing all the husband's principles and being inverted by yin and yang, which is simply a disgrace to a man's face.

In the end, this incident even hit the Tai Chi Hall, which caused a sensation in the court and the people...

Song Yanran smiled back and spread her left arm and back. This natural movement showed a kind of unconventional and unconventional temperament.

"Prince, just say it, what is the matter of finding me?"

Wei Ji smiled bitterly and replied in a low voice: "Madam Song, I am not invisible. From this morning until now, my king has been empty. If such a thing happened, the one in my family has stopped me from having a sound on me.

Could you please ask Mrs. Song to help me with your husband so that I will not be rude in front of others? Alas, it is really embarrassing to say that I am a prince after all, and my life is miserable..."

As he said that, Wei Ji pretended to put his sleeve in front of him and wiped his eyes without tears, making a look of loneliness.

Song Yanran smiled slightly: "It turns out that the prince wants money? So how much does the prince want to borrow?"

When Wei Ji heard this, he quickly stretched out a finger: "I don't want much, I'll give you a hundred thousand or eighty thousand to help..."

“Geehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Song Yanran couldn't help but laugh. After laughing, she blinked and said, "Prince, this 100,000 or 80,000 is not a small amount. What kind of meal do you want to eat cost so much?"

Wei Ji said anxiously: "Madam Song, please help me. If it really doesn't work, just think it's because I asked you if I borrowed it?

I only know that over the years, you have received millions of dividends in various parts of the Far East every year. Such a small amount of money is just a drop in the bucket for you."

Song Yanran smiled and said, "But I didn't get the money out of thin air. Princess, I would like to advise you. The princess cared about you very much, so she took care of you so strictly. Don't let her feel sad..."

"I know..." Wei Ji nodded and responded, "I swear that I will never go to Baihuayuan again. Even if I carry the sedan chair to carry me, I will not look down on it!"

Song Yanran shook her head helplessly, pulled out a silver note from her wide sleeves, and handed it to Wei Ji:

"This is the silver notes from Anhu Silver Village. The total amount of 114,000 silver dollars, with principal and profit, will expire in two days. I originally wanted to take it out to subsidize the palace. Since the prince is urgent, I will lend it to the prince first..."

Wei Ji grabbed the silver notes and flattered with a smile on his face: "Mrs. Song is just happy. He is simply a living Bodhisattva who saves the suffering. Don't worry, this money will be paid back twice as much when I become rich in the future. It's getting late. I will say goodbye first. Mrs. Song stay..."

After saying that, Wei Ji couldn't help but kiss the banknotes in his hand and ran out of the hall with a spring breeze on his face.

“Geehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Song Yanran watched Wei Ji walk away like a child, and couldn't help laughing like a light bell again.

"Why is Madam laughing? Why should I tell you to my husband?"

Liu Ce, who was attracted by Song Yanran's laughter, walked behind her quietly while she was unprepared.

Song Yanran was startled and turned around to look at Liu Ce. When the palace maids around him saw Liu Ce, they hurriedly bowed and greeted him.

After Song Yanran came to her senses, she patted her heart and said, "I'm scared to death, husband, are you walking soundless?"

Liu Ce smiled faintly: "I'm afraid my wife didn't care about coming for her husband..."

Song Yanran blinked and looked at Liu Ce with resentment: "I lent the money to King Huai. Husband won't blame me, right?"

Liu Ce shook his head: "How could this happen? You can make your own decision on such a small matter, but Madam..."

The next second, Liu Ce's eyes turned a little hot when he looked at Song Yanran. He stepped forward and whispered in her ear: "Tonight, I want to go to your place to bed, I want to have a child with you, do you agree?"

Song Yanran's face was flushed with shame, she looked around nervously, and said to Liu Ce with some anger, "Husband, there are so many people around her who are watching, how can you say this? Tonight..."

"Report~~"

Song Yanran was interrupted by a rushing "report" as soon as she spoke.

Liu Ce angrily withdrew his hot gaze and said to Jiao Luo dissatisfiedly: "What's the matter?"

Jiao Luo bowed and replied: "Report to the King of Han! The information from the Information Department has been reported that Huang Fu ascended the throne in Qingzhou three days ago, and the country's name is Chu!"

"Have Huang Fu proclaimed himself emperor?"

Upon hearing this news, Liu Ce fell into deep thought.

After a long time, he looked up and sighed: "It seems that the south side is about to change the sky."

...

On the seventh day of the lunar month, Huang Fu ascended the throne in Qingzhou, established Zhenzhou, and renamed Tiandu, and the country was named Chu.

Originally, Huang Fu's original plan was to ascend the throne after conquering Yizhou, but unfortunately, the war against Yizhou was not as smooth as expected.

The tenacity of the Yizhou defenders exceeded the Chu army's expectations. The Chu army was repelled dozens of attacks on the border. Even Luo Song personally led the army to attack the city, he suffered a lot of losses and achieved little success.

Faced with the low morale Chu army, Fa Yang proposed to Huang Fu the strategy of stopping and continuing to attack Yizhou, and instead stabilized the Qing and Huzhou provinces that had already been in hand. It was not too late to wait for the time to fight before the war. At the same time, he advised him to quickly call himself emperor and appease the morale of the army.

In addition, Huang Fu followed Fa Yang's advice and ascended the throne to the emperor in the largest city in Qingzhou, and changed Zhenzhou to Tiandu. He stopped his plan to continue fighting against Yizhou and began to accumulate strength to rectify his arms.

The establishment of the State of Chu allowed the generals who had followed Huang Fu for many years to be assigned to different official positions, and also stabilized the restlessness in the army and became emotional.

After Huang Fu ascended the throne, he did not abandon his government affairs. Faced with the uneasy people in Qing and Huzhou, he began to urge Fa Yang to carry out comprehensive reforms and vowed to build a unit that dominated the world.

Fa Yang did not disappoint everyone's expectations, and began vigorous reforms and reforms on the third day of Huang Fu's ascending the throne.

On the early morning of January 10th, Tiandu Street.

"Bang bang bang..."

A deafening sound of gongs and drums broke the quiet morning and woke the residents of the city from their sleep.

"Dear neighbors, the Prime Minister (Fa Yang) has an order to gather at the North Gate before Chen Hou. The Lord has announced important things!"

The Chu soldiers who were fighting gongs kept shouting while holding the iron trumpet, which instantly attracted countless people to watch.

About a quarter of an hour later, the people on both sides of the street walked out of their homes one after another and walked towards the north gate with full of doubts.

When he arrived at the north gate, he saw many fully armed Chu soldiers standing in front of the gate. Fa Yang had already been waiting in front of the gate, looking at the people coming with a solemn expression.

After the crowded around, Fa Yang pointed to a log that was ten feet tall in the middle and said, "Everyone, I came to you to give you a fortune. As long as anyone can carry this log to the first gatehouse five hundred steps away, they will be able to get twenty taels of gold!"

After saying that, Fa Yang asked a soldier to come to the front with a plate covered with red silk, and opened it, but saw four or five ounces of gold lying quietly inside, which was eye-opening...
