When the prince of no descendants found out that he had a baby, he went crazy

Chapter 250 248 Ambitious Mei Ji, Concubine Yue

The experienced Sun Chengfeng, Chen Ling, and Zuo Xianghan, who was already skilled in managing the local economy, were transferred by Gu Hua to take over the rear management here.

The people have encountered great disasters in recent years and have experienced long years of chaos and war. The people are very worried. Gu Hua, with some gentle civil officials who have surrendered to them, began to calm the panic-stricken emotions of the people.

Some people recognized Gu Hua as the living Bodhisattva who had sent them medicine and life-saving food during the year of famine and plague. They also learned that she had enabled the people in Shuzhou to live and work in peace and contentment, making it the most stable and safe place in this chaotic world. They happily took out the gongs and drums that had not been used at home for a long time and went to the streets to happily welcome her to take over their city.

At this point, the Shuzhou army led by Gu Hua and Xiao Junlin occupied half of Daxuan.

Instead of rushing to continue north, they stopped to reorganize their troops.

The high-yield and high-quality seeds that Su Fuying and Murray brought back from overseas or other regions for business were distributed to the people for free to help them grow high-yield crops.

Within two or three years, these cities taken over by Gu Hua's army went from being unstable to being stable, safe and orderly under her iron-blooded wrist.

The people no longer had to hide from place to place, and some even had to flee their homes and become displaced to escape the chaotic civil war.

Gu Hua also used her own business to support and promote the commerce and agriculture of these cities, and soon all the prefectures and counties in her territory underwent a major transformation.

Business became prosperous, the streets were clean and tidy, and the people grew high-yield crops, finally having enough food and clothing to live the life they had longed for, living and working in peace and contentment.

Gu Hua, the leader who was voluntarily relegated to the second line to assist Xiao Junlin, has become a god-like existence in the eyes of many businessmen and ordinary people. As long as someone is heard saying bad things about her behind her back, they will definitely be put in a sack if they take the wrong path.

During this period, some other small forces, knowing that they could not accomplish anything, came to join in.

Two years ago, when Gu Hua and his men stopped in the south of the Yangtze River to repair their troops, the capital city urgently dispatched a large army led by Huo Zhenglu and his son to garrison in the north of the Yangtze River.

-

Capital City, Imperial Palace.

In a palace, a man with a gloomy face and a look of madness was watching five or six burly and ugly men abusing and violently assaulting a naked woman who had not a single piece of good skin on her body.

The woman's red and swollen eyes narrowed into slits, her eyes full of resentment, "Xiao Yang, you will not die well."

The man's voice was feminine, "Don't you want to die a miserable death?"

Xiao Qingzhi, who was dying, saw the fierce look on the man's face and shrank back. Then the big man on her...

She was so weak that she couldn't even make a sound. She murmured, "Xiao Yang, for the sake of me being your aunt, please let me die quickly."

Who could have imagined that the eldest princess Xiao Qingzhi, who once relied on the support of her royal brother to act tyrannically, arrogantly, and ruthlessly in the capital, killing countless innocent people and ravaging countless young men, would end up in such a situation.

Like a bitch at this moment...

Obviously, the woman who had been imprisoned in the dark room of the palace for a long time and was tortured to a state worse than death had long lost her former arrogance and now only wanted to die.

"Ha!" The man laughed sarcastically and crazily, "You want to die."

"When I came to you, you were not like this."

"Lewd aunt, do you like the filial piety of my royal nephew?" Xiao Yang looked sinisterly at the royal aunt Xiao Qingzhi who was being pinned down and abused by a man in the center of the palace. She was in a miserable state. She was once so arrogant and had once trampled on the dignity of a prince like him.

Disgusted, he said, "Don't you like men?"

"You can even drag your own nephew into bed... It's impossible for me to let you go."

Standing outside the hall door was Mei Yue, who was once Xiao Junmo's favorite concubine. She was dressed in luxurious and beautiful palace clothes. She looked coldly at the obscene scene happening in the hall. She glanced at the crazy Xiao Yang with disdain, turned around and left with her men.

"Miss?"

Mei Yue looked at the group of dignitaries headed by Wenchang Hou with her charming eyes, "Don't worry about him, he is just a puppet emperor."

Wenchang Marquis Ji Su said with a gloomy face: "I heard that during this period of time, he has frequently contacted some ministers and noble families, hoping to gain support through marriage and take back the imperial power."

"Humph!" Mei Yue snorted: "If it wasn't for the fact that he wanted to stabilize those old and pedantic ministers of the royalist party, he would still be rotting in that desolate place, and now he wants to seize the imperial power..."

When others saw the viciousness and cruelty in Concubine Yue's eyes, they knew that Xiao Yang, who had been fed the Wu Shi San with his food for two years without his knowledge, was about to become the abandoned child of this ambitious concubine.

If the young princes in the palace had not died or been disabled in the infighting among the concubines, this favorite concubine would have ascended the throne with the little emperor in her arms.

Nor would she go to great lengths to win over more powerful families, secretly bribing and tempting generals who hold military power and some leaders in the capital to work for her.

Mei Yue was like a peacock with its head held high, her eyes filled with a proud and noble light, her eyebrows raised with a charming look, and her voice was sinister: "The woman who leads the Shuzhou Army south of the Yangtze River is very annoying, and now she is also the biggest hidden danger to the court. Do you have any ideas to kill her quietly?"

It is enough for Daxuan to have her as a woman with power.

She wanted to make the man who had given her to Xiao Junmo as a favorite concubine regret not cherishing the love of her, a concubine who had been raised in the prince's mansion since childhood. It was such a big mistake.

If that man had accepted her confession, with her ability, she would have given him the throne. Unfortunately, that man chose to be a vassal king in the remote Bashu and was unwilling to accept her.

I heard that he has lowered his status and is willing to stay under that woman as a subordinate. How could Mei Yue not be angry? She took her hatred out on Gu Hua.

"Everyone, tell me what you can do. If that woman leads her troops to attack us, the prosperous life we ​​are living now will vanish into thin air."

A group of ministers who were won over by Mei Yue looked at each other. They were all weak civil officials who could neither lead troops to fight nor have the ability to carry out assassinations.

To quietly kill a rebel leader with a large number of troops, they just want to say, I can't do it...

Looking at the group of ministers around her who usually only knew how to talk big, Meiyue cursed them as trash in her heart.

She had some understanding of her former master Xiao Junlin. As proud as he was, if he was not proud of that woman, he would never bow his head and be willing to be driven by her.

Mei Yue waved her hand, and the others retreated, leaving only Wenchang Hou and his son.

"Yue'er, do you have any instructions?"

Mei Yue narrowed her eyes and looked at Ji Su and Ji Yuanming. There was a hint of resentment in her eyes, but she quickly concealed it and said softly, "Uncle, cousin, go find a beautiful crane from the group of cranes raised on the farm and send it to the prefecture south of the Yangtze River where the woman is."

"Yue'er, you want to..."
