The imperial concubine, she murdered with beauty

Chapter 550 Sending troops to the Northern Jin Dynasty
The papers asking for the choice of concubine piled up like a mountain, several elders still spoke out about the choice of concubine under Song Chen's murderous gaze, relying on their weight in the court.

They felt that the emperor would not kill them just for a word of advice. Of course, they also found more high-sounding reasons for this.

The emperor chooses his concubine not for himself, but for his descendants, which is closely related to national affairs.

It is a private matter, and it is also a major event in the world.

For the stability of the country, for the sake of the dynasty, and for the foundation of the ancestors, the matter of choosing a concubine is imminent.

Not only elections, but general elections.

One by one speaks righteously and awe-inspiringly, not only involving the country, but also moving the ancestors out. If you don’t pass on the lineage, you will be sorry to the ancestors and the common people in the world. The truth is one set after another.

Not only persuasion, but many people also prepared portraits to send to the palace, all of them were of high family background and extraordinary appearance.

I heard that many people who were engaged to get married privately called off their marriage just to enter the palace this time.

Some families do not have daughters of the right age, so they look for them directly from other clansmen, and even go to buy them, trying every means, for fear that they will not be able to catch up.

Song Chen saw all this series of things in his eyes, seeing that they even discussed the position of the fourth concubine in private, and even began to intrigue in private for the latter position, he only found it ironic.

Who the emperor marries is entirely up to their arrangement?When the power he holds is a display?

Song Chen didn't reprimand, nor stopped him, but he didn't agree, and let it hang for now.

Not wanting them to be too noisy, he decided to find something for them to do.

Xuan Qinyan went to court, and issued a decree to make Qin Yan the Marshal of the North, and sent troops to the Northern Jin Dynasty.

As soon as the imperial decree was read, it was as if water had been poured into a frying pan and it exploded instantly.

There are some who don't understand, and some who oppose it. Why is it suddenly going to war with the Northern Jin Dynasty?
Song Chen directly presented the evidence that the person who assassinated him was from the Northern Jin Dynasty, and the poison also came from the Northern Jin Dynasty. Since they broke the covenant and wanted to murder him, then naturally he would not show mercy.

The Southern Jin Dynasty and the Northern Jin Dynasty have been separated for a hundred years, and it is time to merge.

The court fell silent.

Those who swore to be loyal to the emperor had no objection, and immediately knelt down and said that they would never spare the Northern Jin Dynasty lightly, and that they must avenge the emperor and recover the country at the same time.

Some people objected, but before they spoke, the emperor's power was suppressed.

Rectify, send troops.

Since Qin Yan's return, preparations have been made in secret. Today is not a discussion, but a notice.

Song Chen has built up a lot of prestige for so many years, not by marrying someone's daughter, if these people can't see the situation clearly and dare to make a fuss about it, there are countless lessons learned from the past.

The emperor governed for the emperor with benevolence and benevolence, but whoever wants to take him as a fool is making a big mistake.

When he couldn't bear it and finally settled the matter, his tactics were comparable to that of a tyrant.

If you don't make a move, you're done, and if you make a move, you will be slaughtered.

Thousands of people were implicated in the former Princess Chang's Mansion and Duke Rong's Mansion, and the stench of blood can still be smelled even today as they walked through the West Street boundary.

Some of them stretched out their hands, and they also learned about the criminal law that the emperor dealt with the eldest princess. Just listening to it made people frightened and their scalps went numb.

Therefore, if the emperor didn't speak, they could speak their own words, but once the emperor spoke, they had to listen to him.

Now that the battle is getting busy, the matter of concubine selection will naturally be postponed.

The emperor was assassinated and almost lost his life. Naturally, revenge is more important. At this time, who dares to talk about choosing a concubine? Isn't that rushing to court death?
I am anxious, but I can only wait for a while, not necessarily the end of the war, as long as there is a good news, when Long Yan is overjoyed, it is easy to say anything.

The Northern Jin Dynasty was smaller than the Southern Jin Dynasty and had a smaller population, but it was extremely fierce, and everyone was brave and good at fighting. However, the Northern Jin Dynasty had continued civil wars over the years, and the power was divided, and the self-consumption was very high, and the interior had already been short-lived.

Even if the emperor of the Northern Jin Dynasty came to the throne, what he held was not real power, and it was not difficult to win because it was scattered.

And Song Chen has been trying to find ways to recuperate the people's livelihood and gather military power these years, in order not to be afraid of any war anymore.

As for why he knew so much about the Northern Jin Dynasty, it had to be said many years ago. He helped his elder brother ascend the throne, and there were constant internal strife. If there was another foreign war, wouldn't it be over?

For the Southern Jin Dynasty, the surrounding Fanbangyi tribes were wolves staring at each other, while the Northern Jin Dynasty was a lying tiger, which had to be guarded against.

For this reason, after supporting his elder brother's ascension to the throne, he went to the Northern Jin Dynasty three times, and under a false identity, he supported the Northern Jin Zhongyong prince Kangle, made suggestions, and even contributed money.

Stretch your hand into the Northern Jin royal family's struggle to grasp the movement of the Northern Jin Dynasty, so that the Northern Jin Dynasty has no time to send troops to the southern border.

Three years ago, the new emperor of the Northern Jin Dynasty got married, and Song Chen went there in person. It was the first time he met the other party with his real identity.

Although a peace covenant was signed, the other party obviously felt that they had been cheated.

There is a treaty that prohibits the raising of troops, and many spies were secretly sent, some were pulled out, some were hidden deep, and they haven't played a role yet. The most powerful thing is this time, they actually killed him in front of him.

And he obviously succeeded in this.

If it wasn't for Song Chen's spiritual awakening, he would really have died. Once Song Chen died, he would not even have a puppet son behind him. When the clan members compete for the throne, there will be bloody storms. It is hard to imagine how chaotic this country will be. imagine.

It's a pity that fate didn't favor him in the end.

Song Chen was alive, recovered his memory, and easily knew everything he did.

Originally, this war did not have to be fought. His temporary plan was to strengthen the Southern Jin Dynasty, and he did not have a unified plan, but since the other party was unwilling to accept peace, he could only help him.

Qin Yan led 30 troops to the Northern Jin Dynasty. Weapons, armor, food, and military pay were all in accordance with the highest standards.

And Qin Yan did not disappoint Song Chen, led his troops out of the pass, and directly killed the city of the Northern Jin Dynasty.

The tall city of the Northern Jin Dynasty seemed nothing in his eyes, with a huge momentum, he directly broke through the city gate and rushed in.

He won the first victory with little effort, beheaded the commanding general, imprisoned the civilian officials, took a short rest, and continued to advance.

From the first day Qin Yan entered the Northern Jin Dynasty, good news came continuously, and the road was invincible.

He took down a city almost in a day, and hearing the good news, even those civil servants couldn't help but get excited.

How can you not be excited to witness the reunification of the North and the South?
A large number of idle officials were activated and sent to the occupied cities to take over the new territories as quickly as possible.

As for whether the Northern Jin Dynasty will take it back or let it go back, this is not something that needs to be considered.

Because before the documents from the Northern Jin Dynasty were delivered to Fengyang, Qin Yan had already reached the hinterland of the Northern Jin Dynasty and directly took the Northern Jin Dynasty Palace.

Beheaded the emperor of the Northern Jin Dynasty, and captured the royal family and civil and military officials of the Northern Jin Dynasty.

When the news came, the whole country was shaken.

Although no government order has been issued yet, there is no doubt that from this moment on, the Northern and Southern Jins were reunified.
