Concubine Allure: Pick up a prince and grab the country

Chapter 471 Chu Xun
The founding emperor of Qi State was born in a family of officials and eunuchs, but he was not yet an adult. His family was in decline. It was a troubled time, and the people were in dire straits. Chu Xun thought that studying was useless, so he abandoned literature and joined the military, and wandered around the rivers and lakes. Not good, but he is open-minded and righteous, so he made many friends. Later, he was rewarded with a lot of money by the government for his chivalry and righteousness.Many years ago, the Yan family and the Chu family had the rules of marriage between the eldest sons. Later, because the Chu family fell, Chu Xun did not think about making progress, and the official fortune of the Yan family canceled the marriage rules, but Yan Ruyi insisted on marrying Chu regardless of Yan's father's objection. Inquire as a wife.At that time, Yan Ruyi could be regarded as a married woman, and Yan's father loved Yan Ruyi, so he had to do what she wanted, and helped Chu Xun settle the case, and Chu Xun took advantage of the power of the Yan family to become an official, and the official was a seventh-rank military commander.

Because he is sociable and generous, friends from the rivers and lakes he met before came to pay homage to him one after another, and he gathered many heroes who could fight. It took less than half a year for the fifth-rank military garrison to ascend to the first-rank Wudu Division, and he specially led troops to patrol the outer periphery of the imperial capital.

Since Chu Xun met Yan Ruyi, he changed his old bad habits and lived with Yan Ruyi wholeheartedly. He gave birth to his eldest son Chu Jing, but the good times did not last long. The eunuch has dominated the government for many years, covering the sky with one hand, eliminating dissidents, killing courtiers indiscriminately, selling officials and nobles, and amassing money wantonly. Among them, Yan Ruyi's father, Yan Shilang, was forced to death by Wei Xian because he did not want to join forces with the eunuchs. Very sad.

Chu Xun vowed to avenge the Yan family. When there were uprisings in various places, Chu Xun quickly organized a Chu family army to formally revolt under the slogan of King Qin, and it grew rapidly. , rushed into the palace, killed Wei Xian, and killed the young emperor at the same time, proclaimed himself king, and occupied the imperial capital.

At the same time, another large-scale uprising army belonged to the Murong family. When Murong Zhang saw Chu Xun occupying the imperial capital, he made himself king, led the army to retreat to Guanzhong, proclaimed himself the emperor of Xiliang, and established Fengxiang as his capital.

Chu Xun's subordinates immediately invited Chu Xun to ascend the throne as emperor. In the same year, Chu Xun established Qi State and became the founding emperor of Qi State.

In the following year, a mysterious organization suddenly rose up in the south, occupied the south of the Han River, established Nanjing, and made Shengdu its capital.

The great country was established at the beginning, and there were crises on all sides. The Northern Qiang committed crimes against the South every year. At first, Chu Xun’s royal conquest was made by the Northern Qiang. The Northern Qiang did not dare to act rashly. In anger, he killed all the maids and eunuchs in the palace, which caused a sensation and never recovered.

Bai Linglong is Yan Ruyi's maid, and her face is somewhat similar to Yan Ruyi's. Because Chu Xun insisted on not accepting concubines, she was the only queen in the harem, so after she became pregnant with the eldest princess, Yan Ruyi sent Bai Linglong to Chu Xun. The second prince, Chu Chonglin, was born as a servant in the bedroom, but Chu Xun did not give Bai Linglong any title. She was still Yan Ruyi's maid, and it was because of Yan Ruyi's insistence that Chu Xun gave Bai Linglong Bai Jieyu. After Yan Ruyi's death, Bai Jieyu waited by Chu Xun's side every day, and Chu Xun, who was depressed, regarded Bai Jieyu as Yan Ruyi several times and favored her for many years.

Seeing that Chu Xun was no longer diligent in governing, the northern Qiang became more courageous and began to commit crimes in the south frequently. Chu Jing alone led the army to drive out the Qiang barbarians, and personally guarded the northern border to ensure that there was no war in the northern border for ten years.

Qi State used ten years to vigorously cultivate his health, encourage farming, develop handicrafts, and entered the early days of peace and prosperity.

Seeing that the emperor’s heirs are few and only Concubine Bai Xian is the only one in the harem, the ministers of the court ask the emperor to fill the harem with selected women, and slowly overcome the pain of losing his beloved. No one is more favored than Concubine Liang Shu, Beauty Lu, and Concubine Shen, while Concubine Baixian has become a noble concubine, and there has never been an offspring in the palace.

In his later years, Chu Xun became more suspicious and ruthless. The Crown Prince went against his wishes and married a medical girl with no background as his concubine. There was only one side concubine in the East Palace, and Chu Jing would openly disobey him for this side concubine, which made him very displeased. In addition, Chu Jing had made great military achievements, and the Shence Army only recognized the prince and not the emperor. Unable to bear his son threatening the throne, he cruelly forced him to death on the battlefield, and ordered his side concubine to die in love.But Chu Jing's son, Chu Yuanheng, and his grandson, grandson, were allowed to lead the army to quell the frequent harassment from Northern Qiang and Xiliang.Feng Chu Yuanheng was named King Qi'an, while suppressing Chu Yuanheng's growth, he handed over the strategic military power to the fourth prince Chu Nanyan to restrain the princes, and he personally sent the princes into the struggle for succession, want to see Whoever can become the final winner is qualified to be the successor of Qi State.
