Longevity: Never leave the mountain until you are invincible

In the spring of the twenty-third year of Chengwu.

The battle between Dayan Chaotang and Wusheng Cult came to an end with both sides taking a step back.

After nearly a year of confrontation, neither Dayan Chaotang nor Wusheng Sect could gain much benefit.

Under the suppression of the Great Yan Chaotang, the Wu Sheng Cult suffered heavy losses, losing thousands of members and severely weakening their vitality.

However, Dayan Chaotang also suffered heavy losses. More than ten marrow-refining warriors from Jinyiwei and Dongchang each died, damaging the vitality of Jinyiwei and Dongchang.

When an innate master with a magical weapon completely abandons his dignity and attacks the innate warriors, no one can stop him.

After all, Jin Yiwei and Dongchang are both on the bright side, while the Wusheng Heavenly King is in the dark.

The ancestor of the royal family cannot guard every Jinyiwei and Dongchang master, so he doesn't have to do other things.

Not to mention, Prince Kang's Palace and Prince Jin's Palace took the opportunity to send powerful men to secretly stir up troubles in all parts of Dayan and affect the energy of Dayan Court.

As a last resort, the ancestor of the royal family could only invite King Wusheng to have peace talks and stop the fight.

Wusheng Heavenly King agreed to a truce. For Wusheng Cult and Dayan Chaotang, there is no benefit to continuing the fight. No one is absolutely sure of completely destroying the other.

In this case, a truce is the best option.

The battle between Dayan Chaotang and Wusheng Cult did not affect Jin Buhuan, let alone Yicuilou's business.

Jin Buhuan has been very happy recently and married a wife.

Shortly after Emperor Chengwu was assassinated, the Wusheng Cult announced to the public that the saint of the Wusheng Cult returned to the Wusheng Cult from the imperial capital and died of serious injuries, and her soul returned to the West.

later.

Gold is not exchanged for one more wife.

"Congratulations to Brother Jin for bringing home this beauty. I'm so envious of you."

For this reason, Chu Chen specially offered Jin Bu in exchange for a glass of wine.

"Brother Chu is joking. With your financial resources, you can have ten concubines without any problem."

Jin Buhuan had a happy smile on his face, followed by a gentle and beautiful woman.

The two looked at each other and smiled from time to time, exuding the sour smell of love.

"You can't say that. I have never thought of marrying Shifang's concubine. Does Brother Jin have such a plan?"

Looking at Jin Buhuan and the two of them, Chu Chen said calmly.

The beautiful woman's expression suddenly changed, she looked at Jin Buhuan with an unkind expression, her eyes flashed with dangerous light, she snorted coldly, turned around and left.

Jin Buhuan glared at Chu Chen secretly, and quickly begged the beautiful woman for mercy, persuading her all the way.

Chu Chen laughed heartily and drank three large cups.

"Brother Chu, you have hurt me."

Soon after, Jin Buhui left and returned, pouring bitterness on Chu Chen.

"Who asked you to show affection in front of me?"

Chu Chen looked sideways at the gold.

"No matter how affectionate you are, the elders in the family don't like it, but it's a pity that you can't get their blessing."

Jin Buhuan sighed softly, poured himself a glass and drank it in one gulp.

"I thought it was such a big deal. As time goes by, the elders in the family will understand your thoughts and bless you two."

Chu Chen expressed relief.

"maybe."

Jin Buhuan forced a smile.

"Come to think of it, you've been in charge of things for a long time and have seen so many beauties, and now you've actually become a henpeck?"

Chu Chen changed the topic at the right time and asked curiously.

"One pair for life people."

Jin Buhuan's expression became serious, and his whole body exuded a certain kind of light.

"Speak humanly, otherwise, don't blame me for telling my wife some of the things you have done before."

Chu Chen put down his wine glass and looked at the beautiful woman who was busy not far away.

"Brother Chu, don't."

Jin Buhuan hurriedly smiled and said: "You may meet someone in the future. When you see her for the first time, you will know that she is the one for you in this life."

"It should be impossible for me to have this experience."

Chu Chen smiled and shook his head.

He is the only one who walks alone in his long life, and most people are just temporary passers-by in his life.

There is a high probability that love is something he has no luck with.

At least, not now.

After chatting with Jin Buhuan for a while, Chu Chen left Jin Mansion and headed to Yicui Tower.

I ate a lot of dog food here in Jinbu Huan and I urgently need a young lady to soothe my injured soul.

Moreover, before leaving, Jin Buhuan hinted that another group of barbarian girls had arrived at Yicui Tower.

In the spirit of appreciating beauty, Chu Chen felt that it should not be missed.

…

In the spring of the twenty-fourth year of Chengwu.

Emperor Chengwu's condition suddenly worsened, and the old illness he suffered two years ago recurred, so he recuperated in Yangxin Hall.

The memorials were all sent to the Yangxin Hall by Queen Qian, and the power of the Qian family, a relative of the family, increased greatly.

History is a cycle, going around and around, as if returning to the starting point.

The emperor is bedridden, the queen is involved in politics, and relatives are in power.

This scene is just like the scene when Chu Chen first came to this world.

However, it was Emperor Jingzheng who was ill in bed at that time, and Empress Zhang who was in power.

Now the one who is ill in bed is Emperor Chengwu, and the one in power is Queen Qian.

Of course, there is one difference between the two, that is, there is Queen Mother Chen pressing down on Queen Qian's head, so she does not dare to be too presumptuous.

Empress Dowager Chen originally had the same opportunity as Empress Qian, but she gave it up and after Emperor Wu ascended the throne, Empress Dowager Chen retreated behind the scenes and focused on managing the harem.

With Empress Dowager Chen's suppression, Queen Qian and her cousin Qian were not as able to control Dayan's government as Empress Zhang and her cousin Zhang were in the past.

But in any case, Emperor Chengwu was bedridden and unable to manage the affairs of the court too much.

At first, many of the reforms he promoted could continue to be implemented, but as time went on, the reforms in various places began to stagnate, and some places even deceived their superiors and subordinates and re-implemented the previous policies.

The once prosperous Great Yan Kingdom has shown signs of decline again.

"The Great Yan will repeat the scene of the Jingzheng Emperor."

Chu Chen looked at the palace, and a familiar feeling came over him.

In the late period of the Jingzheng Emperor and the early period of the Hongguang Emperor, the world was in turmoil and the people were living in misery.

The foreign relatives, the vassal kings, the Xichan Temple, and the Wusheng Sect were all ambitious and stirred up chaos in all parts of the Great Yan.

Later, after the efforts of several outstanding people such as Yan Nanfei, the decline was reversed.

Now the scene of the past will be repeated.

"The Great Yan royal family had the possibility of clearing all obstacles and continuing the country's fortune for another hundred years, but unfortunately, things are not always satisfactory."

Jin Buhuan sipped the wine and sighed.

Emperor Chengwu was a capable person.

At the beginning of his ascension to the throne, he had set the national policy and thought of a plan to conquer the world.

But things never went as he wished, either because he did not know people well, or because he was assassinated, or because he was unlucky, so the good situation was lost in one day.

"How chaotic the situation in Dayan will be depends on how many years Emperor Chengwu will be bedridden."

Chu Chen used history as a mirror to point out the current predicament of Dayan.

Either Emperor Chengwu will recover from his injury and regain control of the court of Dayan, or Emperor Chengwu will die as soon as possible and be replaced by a new emperor.

Emperor Chengwu being bedridden is the most unsuitable situation, which will only make the situation in Dayan worse.

"Emperor Chengwu's injury is quite serious. It is said that the medical masters of the Imperial Hospital can only maintain Emperor Chengwu's life. It depends on how many years Emperor Chengwu wants to hold on."

Jin Buhuan is very well-informed. He has spies in the palace and knows Emperor Chengwu's situation very well.
