Before confiscating the house and going into exile, he emptied the enemy's warehouses and fled.
Chapter 200: An era without martial ethics
Chapter 200 An era without martial ethics
The three-dimensional space area performed very well this time, and the area actually increased to one hundred square kilometers.
Plant grass, plant fruit trees, and raise poultry and livestock.
Food and meat cannot be missing.
"Xiao Mei, please exchange for 50,000 chickens, ducks, and geese, and three months' worth of feed each."
[Redeem successful]
The day after Xie Yanyan and Xu Wenrong left Chencheng, the Chencheng Bank of the wealthy Nanzhong Prince was suddenly stolen.
Thieves are crazy.
Not only did they rob the bank, but also the princess's private treasury, and also took away everything that could be taken from the princess's mansion.
The agate and tortoise shell inlaid on the wall above the door were all dug out.
The salt industry has made huge profits, with more than 10,000 taels of silver coming in and out every day. How much money is in the bank of Princess Xiyue's mansion? Even she couldn't count them.
The bank is gone, the furniture is gone, and the big iron and bronze doors that sealed the bank are gone.
In this era, iron was also valuable, and copper was even more valuable.
Princess Xiyue received the notice and immediately returned to the mansion from Yanshi. She couldn't breathe and fainted.
The housekeeper quickly sent out a few people:
Go all the way to report to the city lord and seal the city gate;
People and horses were chasing each other along all roads, and no silver convoys were allowed to let go;
Go all the way to Nanzhong Prince’s Mansion to report to the Prince and the Crown Prince;
I went all the way to report to the accounting offices of each branch and quickly made an inventory of how much was lost.
Two days later, the accountant made a summary: the lost property in the princess's mansion totaled 16 taels of gold, 16 taels of silver, and 22 copper coins. The total value of the princess's private treasury is 10 taels. Other miscellaneous things are worth over ten thousand taels.
The city lord is also worried. This is the most prosperous salt market in the Sixteen Kingdoms. How can the city gate be kept closed?
Salt merchants and farm owners outside the city were anxious to settle accounts with him. The other three salt farms strongly suggested opening the city gates. If the city gates were not opened for trading, the Chencheng Salt Market might be destroyed.
As a last resort, Chencheng opened its gates, and elite soldiers from the Nanzhong Palace were checking behind the gates around the clock. All silver cars leaving the city would be provided with detailed and reliable provenance.
In the chaos, the people in the mansion checked the silver carts everywhere, and they actually offended King Langya's silver cart! !
King Langya was a powerful official in the clan of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. He had controlled the government for many years and acted tyrannically. No one looked down upon him. How dare a soldier of the King of Nanzhong dare to stop his silver car?
In anger, King Langya killed the elite soldiers of the Nanzhong Palace who were blocking the silver car, leaving only one person who reported the message. He gave the King of Nanzhong an ultimatum: Bring your sincerity within half a month, otherwise, don't blame me for being rude.
In Lingnan, Nanhai King, Nanzhong King, Dongguan County and even Houwu Kingdom were all overlords, but they were far inferior to King Langya.
King Langya said: "I don't want much, just give me Linqiong Salt Well and 5 cities in the east."
Linqiong Yanjing plus five cities in the east are the economic lifeline of Nanzhong Palace. This is a clear case of taking advantage of the situation.
The housekeeper of the princess's palace worked hard and reported 600 miles to the border guard of Nanzhong Palace. The guard sent troops day and night to report to the king of Nanzhong.
King Nanzhong returned from Chencheng and happened to return to the palace.
The King of Nanzhong was so angry that he cursed: "Old man, do you want my salt well or five cities? You are not afraid of dying!"
He shouted to the manager of wheat harvest: "Mai harvest, wheat harvest dead things, where did they go?"
His personal guard whispered: "Your Majesty, Wheat Harvest is dead."
Mai Batian suddenly shut up and was speechless for a while. If Mai Shuai was here, he wouldn't need to worry about these things at all.
In the middle of summer, the King of Nanzhong suddenly had a cold war.
He came to Chencheng to discuss cooperation with Chu Xiwang, but he didn't come to see the King of Nanhai, let alone the Yuheng Salt Mine.
The leader of the Song Dynasty is young and courageous. He was originally a hero in the world, but now he is the leader of a country.
He said that he fully supported McDull Duo in helping the Hanlon seize the salt mine, but in fact he made a special trip to see Chu Xiwang.
The former Qin court was in chaos, and Qiu Chi and Later Qin joined forces to attack the former Qin's city from the southwest. The King of Nanzhong wanted to take the opportunity to join forces with the Song Dynasty to seize the retreat of Qiu Chi and Hou Qin.
They even participated in cannibalizing the former Qin Dynasty.
The king of Nanzhong wanted to become emperor in the southwest.
After meeting Chu Xiwang, he was even more surprised. This young king not only had outstanding abilities, but also had an extraordinary appearance.
"I wonder if the Lord of the Song Dynasty is married?" King Nanzhong immediately thought of Princess Xiyue, who was waiting for marriage. It would be best if Princess Xiyue betrothed to Chu Xiwang.
"We haven't," Chu Xi looked at her. "My mother just left last year. I have to stay filial piety for my mother for three years. We will talk about the marriage later."
"Then it can be decided first, and the wedding can take place after observing filial piety." King Nanzhong continued, "Your Majesty has seen Xiyue. I wonder if it has fallen into the eyes of Lord Song?"
Chu Xiwang would not refuse such a good offer. In any case, in Lingnan, Nanzhong King was the biggest.
Unexpectedly, Chu Xiwang declined politely: "Thank you very much, King Nanzhong, for your kindness. However, the Song Dynasty has just been established, and there are many wastes to be revitalized. I'm afraid it will cause hardship to the princess. We will discuss this matter later."
The King of Nanzhong knew that Chu Xiwang didn't like Princess Xiyue, or maybe he didn't like the Prince of Nanzhong's palace.
The cooperation with Chu Xiwang failed to be negotiated. Originally, the King of Nanzhong didn't care too much. If the negotiation couldn't be concluded once, there would be a second and third time. He could even find other small countries nearby to join forces.
Unexpectedly, the bank was robbed!
The robbery was so complete that not a single copper plate was left, and even the door was torn off.
What else can be done without money?
Now, King Langya is eagerly waiting for his "sincerity". He knows that King Langya is eyeing not only his five cities, but also the entire southwest hinterland.
King Langya wanted to devour him!
Mai Batian said to Mai Shizi: "We have lost money inside the wall and made up for it outside the wall. The Song Kingdom has just been established and is unstable. We must capture the Song Kingdom first, unite with Guzang and Xiliang, and encircle King Langya on three sides."
Princess Xiyue became anxious: "Father, didn't we agree to unite the two families? You promised me to help Lord Song!"
"Help him? Why should I help him? He is my biological father?" King Nanzhong said coldly, "Why didn't he help me win Guzang and win Xiliang?"
"But, father, you can't attack him either. You have to be moral, right?"
Princess Xiyue said anxiously, "Father, we have salt wells and fertile soil. Isn't it good for us to defend our territory?"
King Nanzhong said: "Morality? My father knows that you like the leader of Song Dynasty, but he has no intention of marrying you. When your father establishes the Southern Kingdom, you will be the princess. What kind of man do you want to marry? Isn't it an imperial decree from this king?"
"Then, my father must expand his territory. Why not take the King of Nanhai? The former Qin court did not want to see the King of Nanhai. He is too busy taking care of himself. We can attack him secretly."
"The King of Nanhai is a king with a different surname from the former Qin Dynasty. Even if they draw their swords at each other, as soon as we attack the Nanhai Palace, they will immediately turn their swords towards us."
Princess Xiyue still wanted to object, but King Nanzhong shouted angrily: "The war is coming. If you continue to disturb the morale of the army, I will sacrifice you to the flag!"
The king of Nanzhong organized his troops and horses, united with Gu Zang, suddenly launched an attack, and attacked the Song Dynasty with all his strength.
King Langya did not move. He was in the south of Song State and east of Nanzhong King's territory. He could attack Song State or Nanzhong King.
Let the Song Dynasty and the King of Nanzhong fight for a while. If one side fails, he will take the opportunity to lead the Jin soldiers to destroy the other side and obtain the maximum benefit at the minimum cost.
Outside, the king of Nanzhong and Gu Zang invaded, while inside, there were remnants of the former Yan and former Zhao royal families who took the opportunity to unite and destroy Xiwang of Chu.
For a time, Song Dynasty was in trouble at home and abroad.
Chu Xiwang Yujia personally marched, wearing black armor and looking majestic.
"We want to win the war quickly. We will use the money in the treasury for food and grass. We don't need to waste money and people." He looked at the devastated new country. The entire country had only been extinguished for a month, and it was about to flow into rivers of blood again.
Qingshan stood beside him and made arrangements.
The army sets off!
