Chapter 193 Mu Changtian’s reminder
After the news that Beijun had returned the land ownership to Beiwang Mansion spread throughout Daxia, Lu Chen suddenly gained countless enemies, and there were already many forces and organizations ready to take action, and some even placed a bounty on Lu Chen's head.
After all, Lu Chen is also the King of the North and the son of Emperor Xia. Someone actually dared to put a bounty on his head. This is enough to show how much Lu Chen was hated for what he did this time. It also proves from the side that the current Emperor Xia has nothing. Deterrent.
The most important thing is that the court did not respond at all to this, and Emperor Xia had no intention of protecting Lu Chen.
The matter was caused by Lu Chen himself, so he should resolve it. As for the dignity of the royal family, what kind of royal dignity can they have? As an emperor, he was forced to compromise by his family, so how could he talk about dignity?
Only when all the aristocratic families are wiped out will the forces supported by those aristocratic families not be so arrogant.
One month later.
North County.
Lu Chen was handling government affairs in the study. At this time, Li Rui and Mu Changtian came to the study to report to Lu Chen the recent reforms in Bei County.
The population of Beijun is relatively small. After the propaganda of Jin Yiwei and Beijun soldiers, the people are basically relieved about the land issue.
Many people even obtained more land for farming, which made them believe that King Bei did not cheat them.
The reform was successfully implemented.
The military reform did not encounter too many problems. The Northern Law stipulates that every adult has the obligation to perform military service, but it is a compulsory soldier. The compulsory soldier is different from the recruited professional soldier.
After serving as compulsory soldiers for a few years, soldiers have the opportunity to become professional soldiers, and professional soldiers receive very good treatment. Nowadays, many former soldiers in North County have become professional soldiers.
Today's professional soldiers will not only distribute fields, but the Beiwang Palace will also give them a large allowance when they become professional soldiers. Lu Chen even stipulated that the descendants of professional soldiers can study for free, which suddenly raised the status of soldiers. Come up.
At this time, Mu Changtian said to Lu Chen: "Your Majesty, I feel that there are still too few promotion channels between conscripts and professional soldiers. According to the current reform plan, conscripts must serve for several years before they can be promoted to professional soldiers. In this way For ordinary conscripts, I'm afraid the motivational effect is limited. In the future, some conscripts will definitely think that they can just hang out for a while."
"So I suggest adding more promotion channels, such as improving their salary based on military merit."
Lu Chen said: "I also have such an idea, but there have been too many things recently. I haven't written down the detailed promotion rules yet. Now that you have thought of it, when you go back, write down your thoughts in a paper and hand it over. I will refer to it. one time."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
It’s not that Lu Chen has never thought about the treatment of conscripts. He deliberately created a treatment gap between conscripts and professional soldiers, mainly to encourage conscripts to work hard to become professional soldiers.
If there is only one promotion path, it is obviously impossible to compete with ordinary conscripts, so Lu Chen is also considering improving the military merit system.
After talking about the promotion of soldiers, Mu Changtian and Li Rui continued to report on some of the problems they had encountered recently during the reform.
About half an hour later, the maid's voice sounded at the study door, interrupting the two people's report.
"Your Majesty, Commander Qin is here."
Qin Yushan was assigned to make weapons. Recently, he rarely came to deliver information to Lu Chen in person. Basically, Qianhu of Jinyiwei came to report to Lu Chen what happened in Daxia recently.
But since he is here, it means there must be something important.
Li Rui and Mu Changtian immediately stood aside and stopped talking.
At this time, Lu Chen said to the maid at the door: "Let him come in."
Qin Yushan then opened the door and entered the study, "Meet the prince!"
Lu Chen said "hmm" and his eyes fell on the bamboo tube in Qin Yushan's hand.
"Commander Qin, has something big happened in the capital again?"
Qin Yushan walked up to Lu Chen, handed the bamboo tube containing the letter to Lu Chen, and then said: "My lord, now the major families in Daxia have secretly sent many assassins to Beijun with the intention of doing harm to you."
"According to Commander Liang's information, they know that there are three waves of assassins coming to North County, and these assassins are very strong. Each wave of assassins has Grandmaster-level Martial Artists, and even Grandmaster-level Martial Artists. Artist exists.”
Hearing Qin Yushan's words, Lu Chen just smiled. Then he took out the bamboo tube, took out the information inside, and took a serious look at it.
Lu Chen had basically anticipated what would happen next. He touched the nerves of the aristocratic families. Those aristocratic families definitely did not want him to live. Although he was far away in Beijun, he had made this start, which was enough to make him live. The aristocratic families were intent on killing him.
After hearing Qin Yushan's report, Mu Changtian immediately stood up and said: "Your Majesty, I will strengthen the security of Yancheng when I return later, and try to prevent those stranger Martial Artists who are relatively strong from entering Yancheng."
Lu Chen said: "No need."
"There are countless ways for them to enter Yancheng, but the city wall cannot stop them."
"Let them all come. I just need to find some more powerful Martial Artists to practice my skills with."
Lu Chen has started to practice the Dharma Absorption Technique. Since he obtained the Dharma Absorption Technique, he has been running to Chunshengyuan every day. The Dharma Absorption Technique has now reached the first level.
It's just that he has never used this technique. He is staying in Beiwang Mansion and has no contact with the enemy. Now that the assassins are coming to his door, he can try out his power-absorbing technique to see how powerful it is. How about it.
After hearing Lu Chen's words, Mu Changtian thought for a moment, and it seemed that Lu Chen did not need to be afraid of those assassins. Lu Chen himself was the Grandmaster, and Lu Chen had many mysterious weapons on his body. Those assassins came to assassinate Lu Chen. court death.
However, although Lu Chen is not afraid, others are different.
Thinking of this, Mu Changtian said: "My lord, you are now the Grandmaster. Of course, ordinary Martial Artists cannot hurt you, but your wife, concubines and children in the North Palace are different."
"If those assassins find it difficult to assassinate you, they might turn against the people around you."
Hearing Mu Changtian's words, Lu Chen fell into deep thought.
This is a problem.
Mu Zixuan and Dazhou and Xiaozhou are just ordinary people, and his children are also ordinary people. They have no fighting power when encountering a Martial Artist.
Lu Chen said: "In the future, I will ask General Xuanyuan to guard the palace to prevent assassins from sneaking into the palace."
Seeing that Lu Chen already had a candidate to protect the North Palace in his mind, Mu Changtian didn't say anything more.
Xuanyuan Chen and Wen Renlie are both very powerful. They already have the strength of a Grandmaster. They are not ordinary Grandmasters. With them guarding the North Palace, and the mysterious weapons of the North Palace, they want to resist the assassins. The attack is no problem.
Of course, it is easy to hide from open guns and hard to guard against hidden arrows. If the people from Bei Wangfu leave Bei Wangfu, it will be different. However, Mu Changtian believes that in the next period of time, Lu Chen will ask the women from Beiwang Mansion to try not to leave Beiwang Mansion.
Mu Zixuan is Mu Changtian's daughter, and Mu Zixuan is now the princess of the North King, so compared to Lu Chen, Mu Changtian is more concerned about the safety of the North King's Mansion.
If something happened to his daughter, the relationship between their Mu family and King Bei would not be so close.
At this time, Qin Yushan continued: "Your Majesty, there is another news."
After hearing Qin Yushan's words, Lu Chen realized that he had a double copy of the information, and there was another one below.
Lu Chen then opened the first piece of information and checked the contents of the second piece of information.
Qin Yushan continued: "Dawu gathered an army of one million and launched an all-out attack on Xiwu County. The Eighth Prince was sent by His Majesty to the front line to fight against Dawu's army."
Lu Chen laughed, and then said: "It seems that the war should be over. My brother, I, has gone to the front line to do military exploits. Are you planning to let my father make him the prince?"
Mu Changtian said: "Your Majesty, I heard that the head of the Chu family has come to Beijun. If you are willing, you may try to win over the Chu family and prevent the Jiangnan family from uniting. This may be more beneficial to you."
Lu Chen put down the information in his hand and said calmly: "It's useless. My grandfather is no longer the head of the Chu family. Now there are only a few people in the Chu family supporting him. The Chu family has basically turned to my eighth brother." Brother Huang."
At this moment, the maid's voice came from the door again, "Your Majesty, Wu Qianhu is here."
Lu Chen said: "Come in."
Wu Yuan then entered the study room and said, "Meet the prince!"
Lu Chen asked directly: "What's the matter?"
Wu Yuan replied: "Your Majesty, General Lin has led the imperial court's 20,000 troops to withdraw to Yancheng. They should leave Yancheng at sunset."
The imperial court's punishment measures for Lu Chen came to Beijun half a month ago, which was to withdraw the imperial court's 20,000 soldiers and let the northern country deal with the barbarians on the grassland.
The court's punitive measures were not painful to Lu Chen, and he did not take them seriously at all. evil
Lu Chen said: "Let them leave and ignore them."
Wu Yuan said: "Your Majesty, General Lin said he wants to meet with you in private. I wonder if it would be convenient for you."
Hearing this, Lu Chen suddenly became interested, "Oh, meeting me in private? This is quite interesting."
"Then make arrangements for me to meet with him in the evening."
Wu Yuan immediately said: "Yes, Your Majesty."
"My subordinates resign."
Lin Xiuming's father is Prime Minister Zuo. If Lin Xiuming wants to meet with him in private, it means that Prime Minister Lin Gaoyuan is on his side. Otherwise, Lin Xiuming will not meet with him in private when he is about to leave Beijun. .
As a general of the imperial court, it was taboo to meet a vassal king in private. If the imperial court found out about this, both Lin Xiuming and Lin Gaoyuan would be in trouble.
After Wu Yuan left, Qin Yushan quickly left the study, while Mu Changtian and Li Rui continued to report on the reform situation in Beijun.
at dusk.
Lu Chen came to a restaurant under the arrangement of Jin Yiwei. If Lin Xiuming wanted to see him, he would definitely not be able to let Lin Xiuming come to Beiwang Mansion, so they specially arranged a private room in Tingyulou to open a restaurant.
When he saw Lu Chen, Lin Xiuming felt a huge pressure. Lin Xiuming was startled. Sure enough, it was similar to what he felt last time. Bei Wang was a Martial Artist, and his strength was not low. Even in above oneself.
