A Timely Wife

After the news of Prince Zhong's death reached Jinghaiwei, Li Ruosong was silent for a long time, and then ordered the flag to be flown at half-mast for three days, no weddings and funerals will be held within half a year, and everyone should abstain from meat and vegetables. After this decree was issued, no one If they didn’t support it, Cheng Dong put on mourning clothes for Li Ruoshan and Li Ruofeng, and built a tomb for Prince Zhong in the best place in the cemetery. Inside was only a personal jade pendant that Prince Zhong gave to Li Ruosong. They couldn't find it. Even this jade pendant was brought to them by Prince Zhong two years ago. He said that he had worn it since childhood and gave it to Li Ruosong. Come to think of it, Prince Zhong had already made up his mind at that time. The idea of ​​dying for the country is why I sent this jade pendant.

The fall of Chu Jingcheng did not allow Dahe to win a major victory, but instead caused Dahe to fall into internal strife. Da Yuanfeng's death was too sudden. In just half a year, Da Yuanzhong and Da Yuanfeng died successively. The eldest son of the successor also died. Da Yuan Li wanted to take the throne, but Da Yuan Zhong did not only have two sons, Da Yuan Feng and Da Yuan Zhong. Da Yuan Zhong had eleven sons in total, and one died. The next ten, and Da Yuanli is just the youngest son, the nine elder brothers above him have never been easy to deal with, there is only one position, who would not want it, for the position of Emperor Dahe, a battle between these ten people In an extremely bloody fight, Da Heben is a race where the stronger one wins. In this case, the Da Yuan family is naturally fighting fiercely.

Except for the Da Yuan family, several other generals were also a little bit ready to move. Originally, these people had no intention of rebelling, but Da Yuanli did a stupid thing. Above the main hall, an order to kill all the generals who followed in was issued.

Da Yuanli, the traitor general of Fengguo and Dachu, was merciless in killing them. No matter what kind of thoughts these people had in mind, in Da Yuanli's view, these people were all uneasy and well-intentioned, and they were sent by other countries. The spies who came here were all those who intended to overthrow Dahe’s regime. Only by killing them all would he be able to make himself feel at ease and Dahe’s country to be stable. They were all killed by Prince Zhong. Among the remaining great generals, he did not move the two generals who belonged to him, but he also killed the other generals who did not belong to him very simply. No matter which elder brother is the master behind these generals, it will be less difficult for him to ascend the throne after one more death of these generals. In He's capital city, once the news of the death of these two people is known by his brothers, they can imagine what they will do with their toes. Therefore, Da Yuanli killed these people present so quickly. , also for the sake of silence, but unfortunately, there are too many people present, and there are many very clever people. Before Da Yuan Li made a move, the news of the death of Da Yuanfeng and his eldest son had already been rushed back to Hedu .

Da Yuanli immediately cleared dissidents and blocked the news in order to seek the throne. His brothers also made the same choice after getting the news. If it weren't for the news of the death of Da Yuanfeng and his wife, they couldn't hide it. None of them would want to do this. When it was leaked out, these people also chose to clean up their respective forces wantonly, leaving only their own people in the teams they were responsible for, and those who did not belong to them made excuses to kill them, even including each other's family members. They were all killed in sevens and eights. When Da Yuanzhong was alive, they still cared about ethics and brotherhood with each other, but when the temptation of the position of the emperor came out, what brothers and sisters, what nephews and nieces, Anyone who gets in the way deserves to die.

When Da Yuanli hurried back to Dahe's capital with his people, he found that Dahe's capital had been closed for a long time, and there was an extremely strong smell of blood in the air. Da Yuanli immediately realized that the news had leaked , and his brothers had already started, Da Yuanli did not choose to enter the city, but turned his horse's head around and stationed at a place not far from He, he was waiting, waiting for the fighting in the city to end before entering, In this way, he can win the throne without too much effort. As for the wives and children in the city, Da Yuanli doesn't care at all. He doesn't lack for women, and he doesn't lack for children. He is looking for, the child is dead and he will be reborn, in Da Yuanli's eyes, nothing is as attractive to him now as the throne.

Dahe's internal affairs were chaotic in order to fight for the throne, so naturally he had no spare energy to continue to invade the south, and Dachu now had no spare energy to fight back, and the situation stabilized strangely.

The current situation is that Dahe controlled the north of the Chu River, and the Da Chu shrank to the south of the Chu River. The west side occupied by Xi Zhong was also torn apart after Xi Zhong's death. Although it did not return to Da Chu, it was no longer the same as before. According to the current situation in the west, it is only a matter of time before it is taken back, but at this stage, no matter whether it is Dachu or Dahe, they don’t have the energy to clean up the few prefectures in the west. Li Ruosong and the others are considering whether Li Ruoshan should be crowned emperor.

This matter has been discussed for several days. Li Ruosong and Chengdong are not willing to let Li Ruoshan be the emperor now, and Li Ruoshan himself is not willing. The position of emperor is just a formal thing for the current Dachu, but General Zhou and the others insisted on letting Li Ruoshan take the throne, because even if it was only a formal title, as long as there is an emperor in the south, Great Chu will not perish, and the most important thing is that they need an emperor to call on the people of Great Chu to actively resist Dahe's reign.

Li Ruoshan is 15 years old this year, half a child is already very assertive, he feels that the throne is harmful to him, and in the past few years with Li Ruosong and the others, he has seen many things that he has never seen before, and has come into contact with a lot He knew very well that once he got to that position, he would not be able to be as close as he is now with Li Ruosong and the others like brothers. Even if he didn't mind, his brother and brother-in-law would definitely To avoid suspicion, even they don't mind, people around will always say all kinds of things, anyway, it won't make them feel better.

But Li Ruoshan also understands that this position must be done by himself, because according to his age and qualifications, he is the only one who meets the requirements best, but for Li Ruoshan, he doesn't want to touch that position at all. He has his own little calculations, he likes Zhou Jinyan, and has discovered his thoughts over the years. At that time, he was terrified, and reason told him that it was impossible for him and Zhou Jinyan, because both of them were men, let alone him at the time. How irritable, if either he or Zhou Jinyan was a twin, he wouldn't be entangled like this.

But feelings are things that he can't control. The more he tells himself not to pay attention to Zhou Jinyan, the more he persuades himself to give up Zhou Jinyan, the more he can't look away. He doesn't even know who to talk to. For these things, during those days he didn't think about eating or sleeping, and his mind was full of pessimistic thoughts.

It was Chengdong who found out that something was wrong with Li Ruoshan, and had a long chat with Li Ruoshan in private. At first, Li Ruoshan was unwilling to say anything, because he was afraid that once he said it, he would lose even the slightest hope. This kind of unspeakable thoughts should not exist, he should not have such thoughts at all, but after Cheng Dong broke Li Ruoshan's mind, Li Ruoshan thought that he would die sooner or later anyway, closed his eyes, As soon as he was ruthless, he simply said it.

After listening, Cheng Dong pondered for a while, and when Li Ruoshan's face turned pale and tears were about to fall, Cheng Dong told Li Ruoshan not to let others know his thoughts, and he would find a way to touch Zhou Jinyan first. It means that if Zhou Jinyan also has this idea, he will find a way to get them together, but, no matter whether it can be done or not, Li Ruoshan can't let others notice his thoughts at this stage, because Cheng Dong also understands that Li Ruoshan and Zhou Jinyan's road is much harder than his. Anyway, he is a twin, and he is allowed to marry here, but those two little guys are men, and their feelings are not tolerated in the world, let alone Their identities, one is that they are likely to become emperors in the future, and the Sangong Sixth Courtyard will be unavoidable at that time, or there is no way to avoid it at the moment, and the other is the future hope of the Zhou family. After coming out, General Zhou's hopes were all on Zhou Jinyan. He placed too much on Zhou Jinyan, so much that Cheng Dong didn't think General Zhou would agree.

Of course, the most important thing is to listen to Zhou Jinyan's thoughts first. Cheng Dong, who considers himself a confidant brother, comforted Li Ruoshan, sent Li Ruoshan back first, and then called Zhou Jinyan. Zhou Jinyan was one year younger than Li Ruoshan, who was 13 years old at the time. Zhou Jinyan didn't get the hang of it at all, and it took Cheng Dong a lot of effort to find out. Zhou Jinyan always thought that his feelings for Li Ruoshan were just between brothers, the kind that could be trusted by life and death, but when Cheng Dong said he was going to When seeing Li Ruoshan and preparing to marry Li Ruoshan a daughter-in-law, Zhou Jinyan's heartbeat stopped for a moment, a little flustered, a little angry, and a little disappointed. He is not a love expert, but he is the father of two children anyway, so he can still see this kind of thing.

Chengdong chatted with Zhou Jinyan for a while, which made Zhou Jinyan understand what he was thinking. The little guy turned pale at the time, and Chengdong didn't need to tell him that he knew this kind of feeling. It was hopeless and violated human relations. Chengdong comforted them for a long time, then called Li Ruoshan over, asked the two little guys to have a frank talk first, and then promised them that he would find a way to fulfill them, but they are too young now, and their relationship is so weak. This kind of thing must go through the precipitation and test of time. If the two of them can resist the temptation of the outside world, Cheng Dong will persuade others to agree when the national feud is avenged.
