The arms agent concubine takes the RV to raise a baby

The Chu State was worried about the choice of marriage partner. Seeing that the marriage team was almost reaching Yingdu, several princes were unwilling to marry anyone. After much discussion, there was no result. Finally, the old emperor gritted his teeth and decided to take the girl into his harem.

The matter was finally settled, and all the princes breathed a sigh of relief. Then they vied with each other to be the bride-welcoming envoys. At least they wanted to go to the border between Chu and Nanyue to welcome the bride, so that it would appear more serious.

As long as they were not the ones marrying, the princes would rush to be the bride-welcoming envoys so that they could show off in front of their fathers.

The wedding welcoming delegation arrived at Feng'an Posthouse on the border and waited for five days but still did not see the marriage party. They became a little anxious. They calculated the time and thought it would not be more than two days different, so they sent someone to inquire. The news they got back surprised the envoys.

The princess who was to marry into the Nanyue Kingdom has returned and will not be marrying again.

The King of Chu was furious when he received the news. It was outrageous. Wasn't this playing tricks on Chu? Weren't they afraid that when Northern Tang attacked Southern Fujian, Chu would take the opportunity to attack Southern Yue?

The news that was received later shocked the King of Chu. Li Xianglong was assassinated, and all his senior generals were shot to death with hidden weapons in the parade ground. The Northern Tang Kingdom might not be able to send a general to lead the troops within ten years, let alone attack Southern Fujian. It would be good enough if it could defend its own borders.

No wonder Nanyue dared to turn back halfway. Now that the crisis was resolved, it no longer took Chu seriously. How could it tolerate such humiliation? The small Nanyue dared to look down on Chu like this? This battle had to be fought.

So the King of Chu ordered that troops be mobilized within a month and that the Nanyue be caught off guard.

Liu Jingyu rode his horse as fast as he could back to Huicheng. Before he reached the palace gate, he felt extremely nervous for no reason. Huicheng today was no different from the past, and he didn't know the reason for his nervousness.

He hurried back to the East Palace, and the palace servants who greeted him were still the same people as before, but he could see that everyone's expressions were different from before.

"Di Shen, go and find out what has happened these days." After giving Di Shen the order, he ordered people to fetch water for a bath. After a long journey, he had to get himself in good shape when he entered the palace to see his father, the emperor, and his mother.

It didn't take much effort for Di Shen to understand what had happened in the past few days. He waited outside the bathroom and watched Liu Jingyu come out after getting dressed. However, he didn't know how to tell His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

"Say it, no need to use words, just say it like it is." Seeing him hesitant to speak, Liu Jingyu felt more and more uneasy.

"Or, Your Highness should go to the palace to see the Emperor first." Di Shen thought that he still couldn't bring bad luck. Everything would be clear after entering the palace.

"Okay, if you can do it, then go into the palace." Liu Jingyu laughed angrily. The guards started to play tricks on him. This was great.

He hurried to the emperor's study, but was stopped outside the door by the eagle guard on duty, "Your Highness, the emperor is summoning the imperial merchant now, please wait a moment."

Liu Jingyu's anxious mood calmed down all of a sudden. He didn't know what he was anxious about. Since his father had something to do, he decided to go see his mother first.

"Then I'll come back later," Liu Jingyu instructed the guards and went to Fengxiang Palace.

Outside Fengxiang Palace, there was a desolate scene. The autumn wind blew fallen leaves all over the sky. The palace gate was half-open, and the mess on the ground could be vaguely seen. In just a few days, it seemed as if no one had lived here.

Liu Jingyu pushed open the door in disbelief. There was no one in Fengxiang Palace. The Queen was not there, not even the palace maids. No wonder the ground was covered with fallen leaves.

He looked around, feeling more and more uneasy, and then he shouted loudly "Mother, Mother" and rushed into the bedroom.

The door curtain swayed, and an old maid came out and bowed to the prince politely.

"What happened? Where did my mother go?" The old nanny shook her head, indicating that she didn't know and wanted to run away quickly. She just came in to look for something. After all, it was the palace where the queen had lived, and maybe she could find some treasure here.

Liu Jingyu grabbed her and wanted to ask her for clarification, but was stopped by Di Shen, "Your Highness, Your Highness, the Queen has been demoted to a commoner and sent to the cold palace, and the Pan family has been confiscated."

"Impossible, this is impossible." He knew about his uncle's ambition, but he felt that his father would always find a way to deal with it, so he didn't take it too seriously.

Now that his mother has been implicated because of the Pan family, how long can he remain the crown prince?

"Your Highness, this is true. The dragon throne and dragon robes were found in the Pan family's storehouse. It is a crime of treason and the entire family will be executed." Everyone in the streets and alleys knows about this. You can find out by just asking around.

"I'll go ask my father, I'll go ask my father, nothing you say can be taken seriously." Liu Jingyu was distraught and stumbled to the door of the emperor's study again.

Just then, he met Zhai Liangyu coming out of the study, and he bowed to him politely, "Your Highness the Crown Prince."

Liu Jingyu had no intention of listening to Zhai Liangyu's idle chatter at the moment. He returned the greeting perfunctorily and walked in without waiting for the guards to inform him.

The emperor actually knew that he was coming a long time ago, and deliberately asked him to go to the queen's palace. There are some things that you have to figure out on your own, and you can't rely on your parents for support in everything.

"Father, father, mother..." He couldn't ask any more. How could he not know what the queen was thinking? How could he not know what his uncle had done? It was just that he had not made it clear to the public.

The "iron evidence" emperor did not blame him for breaking in without permission. He had already thought about how to answer his questions, so he gave him the answers without waiting for him to ask.

The father and son talked for a quarter of an hour, and finally Liu Jingyu left crying. Di Shen followed behind him to protect him, saying nothing, and accompanied the prince back to the East Palace. From then on, Liu Jingyu locked himself in the East Palace and no longer went out to see anyone.

The emperor had many important things to do and had no time to care about his son's fragile heart. As a member of the royal family and a crown prince, he was too delicate.

At this moment, Fu Yunyi, who was guarding the northern border, received a letter from his son, which elaborated in detail that the situation in the court had changed dramatically and the threat from Northern Tang had been lifted. He reminded his father that Northern Chu would definitely retaliate and he should be prepared to meet the enemy at any time.

He explained the family affairs again. The emperor has already granted a marriage between the Seventh Young Master and Fu Tingxuan. It is the princess who will marry into the Fu family, not the princess who will be married. The wedding date is set for March next year, and he hopes his father will return to Beijing to preside over the wedding.

Fu Yunyi was filled with mixed emotions when he read his son's letter, and his tense heart immediately relaxed. Previously he had to protect Bei Tang and be wary of Bei Chu, but now he could concentrate on dealing with Bei Chu and it was much easier.

Soon, the emperor's edict arrived. The powerful enemy Northern Tang was now leaderless, and the new emperor was busy consolidating his position and training new generals, so he had no time to take care of himself. The Kingdom of Nanyue took this opportunity to strengthen its northern border defenses, and then joined forces with the Southern Fujian Alliance to block Northern Chu and Northern Tang. Fu Yunyi of the Fu family army was ordered to defend the country's borders and not allow an inch of land to be lost.

Northern Chu was busy mobilizing troops, and Southern Vietnam was also busy mobilizing troops. Mei Yikuan led 50,000 troops to support the Northern Frontier. In addition to the 30,000 Mei family troops originally stationed in Xiaojing Mountain, he transferred another 20,000 troops from other places and rushed to the Northern Frontier day and night.

The journey from south to north is quite long, and the most consumed thing is food and fodder, which are the basis of all wars.

Zhai Liangyu left the palace dejectedly. While others were proud of being summoned by the emperor, he looked dejected. For modern people, the emperor lives on the screen. Even if he lives in reality now, the awe he feels is not as profound as that of the ancients.

From a modern people's perspective, the emperor's behavior is that of a lunatic. He has no money and no food but still wants to start a war. If that's not a disease, what is it?

When the national treasury had no money and no grain, it came to the common people for help. The emperor asked a businessman to raise grain, but he was not his official and did not receive his salary, so why should he do so?

But the emperor offered a very good price. If the deal was done, the emperor would allow his two sons to enter officialdom and would make his eldest son an imperial merchant.

Zhai Liangyu swallowed his words of refusal. His two sons were officials, and he and his eldest son were both imperial merchants. Does that mean that in the future, he, Zhai Liangyu, will be the top figure in the Nanyue Kingdom?

Although the price is good, one has to have the ability to earn it. He can't throw away all his years and savings. After thinking about it, the emperor realized that he just wanted to get it for free. He thought of Shen Wansan of the Ming Dynasty. His originally happy mood instantly became depressed.

He has to find allies and find another way, otherwise he will suffer a great loss.
