Chapter 147: At such a young age, he secretly watched the palace maids bathing, gave them money, food, and people
[When no one cared about you, only your third brother was very kind to you. He was willing to play with you, take you to play tricks on the eunuchs in the palace, and peek at the palace maids taking a bath]
[After being discovered, he took the initiative to speak up and took the blame alone. His father hit his palms hard with a ruler, which frightened you terribly.]
[The days that followed were always very dull]
[During this period, there was nothing worth mentioning]
[In the blink of an eye, fifteen years have passed]
[Shenwu Fifty Years]
[This year, you are eighteen years old, and your third brother has reached the age of twenty. He was named the King of Jin by your father and given the fiefdom of Lingnan. He will go there to take up his fiefdom on a certain day.]
[You are extremely sad to learn about this]
[On the day when the King of Jin left for his fiefdom, you accompanied him for a long distance alone]
[You know, after you part, I don’t know if I’ll ever have the chance to see you again in this life]
【Farewell to Queen Jin】
[Your life is becoming more and more dull]
【Completely no one cares】
[Two years passed like this]
[In the 52nd year of the Shenwu reign, you have reached the age to be enfeoffed. Your father, whose health is getting worse and worse, canonizes you as the King of Zhao and gives you the fiefdom of Yangzhou.]
[After hearing that your fiefdom was actually the wealthy Yangzhou, you were very surprised. Similarly, the court officials and even the princes were a little bit unbelievable.]
[Your father did not explain anything about this, but waved his hand and asked you to go to the vassal state]
【then】
[You went to Yangzhou and became the King of Zhao]
[But what you didn’t expect was that when you just arrived in Yangzhou, a piece of bad news came from Chang’an: your father passed away.]
[You were slightly startled when you received this message, but you didn’t have too many emotions]
[You are not sad, just a little melancholy]
[After all, no matter what he says, he is still your father]
[You have no intention of going back to pay your respects. You also know that the Crown Prince will not allow you, the princes, to go back.]
[As expected]
[Not long after, you received a letter from the King of Jin. In the letter, the King of Jin first congratulated you, and then immediately started to curse the Crown Prince.]
[You looked at the letter in your hand and shook your head, saying with a smile that the Third Brother is still the Third Brother.]
[After that, you and the King of Jin often exchanged letters]
[And the King of Jin has also told you that he is not willing to be just a vassal king in this life. If there is a chance, he also wants to sit in that position.]
[You read the letter from the King of Jin. You saw his ambition from it, so you kept it in mind. If that day ever comes, you are willing to lend a helping hand to your brother.]
“Is that so?”
Seeing this, the empress frowned.
Now I understand why the simulator evaluated him as King Zhao, whose life was mediocre.
will be in the previous simulation.
Send troops and food to help King Jin seize the country.
"Yangzhou is rich and has no shortage of money and food. Although Prince Zhao is mediocre, we must still be on guard against him." The empress thought, and immediately decided to wait until the White Lotus incident was over.
He immediately sent a group of Jinyiwei to Yangzhou to garrison and keep a close eye on Prince Zhao.
Although the King of Zhao did not seem to pose any threat, he was loyal to the King of Jin.
It is hard to say how much money and grain were secretly sent to Lingnan over the years to help the King of Jin raise his army.
[After you made up your mind to lend a helping hand to the King of Jin if he rebelled, you began to take good care of your fiefdom, making the already prosperous Yangzhou even more prosperous in just ten years. The people lived and worked in peace and contentment, no one picked up things on the road, and no one locked their doors at night.]
[And in recent years, you have sent people every year to secretly escort a batch of money and grain to Lingnan]
[The King of Jin was very grateful for this, and wrote to you that if that day ever came, he would share the country with you, and his country would be half of yours, the King of Zhao’s.]
[You don’t care about this]
[You don’t have any ambitions, and you don’t want to be an emperor who rules the world. You think it’s fine to just be an idle prince.]
[In this way, the days passed by]
[Until the 30th year of Emperor Yuan's reign, when Da Wu was imprisoned, your peaceful life had finally changed.]
[Thirtieth year of Emperor Yuan]
[Da Wei, Da Li, Nan Yue, and Bei Man all invaded, and the border was in crisis]
[You are very worried about the King of Jin in Lingnan]
[In the 31st year of Emperor Yuan, you received news that Lingnan had fallen and the King of Jin had been defeated and retreated to Chongli Prefecture]
[You were shocked and immediately sent people to deliver a batch of money and food to the King of Jin. At the order of Emperor Yuan, you even began to recruit soldiers in Yangzhou. You also sent the recruited soldiers to Chongli Mansion to give to the King of Jin.]
[You know that you are not cut out to lead troops in battle, and the Emperor Yuan knows that too. The Emperor Yuan also knows that you have had a close relationship with the King of Jin since you were young, so even though you acted against the rules, he did not intend to punish you, but turned a blind eye.]
[Moreover, in the past two years, you have not only sent money and food to the King of Jin, but also continuously sent part of the money and food to the army led by Emperor Yuan.]
[The 32nd year of Emperor Yuan’s reign]
[You heard a name, Jiang Xuan]
[After hearing about his deeds, you became particularly interested in him and sent a letter to Chongli Mansion, saying to the King of Jin with a smile: If the emperor wants to rebel, it is better to recruit this man as soon as possible. With his help, you will be able to achieve twice the result with half the effort.]
[In the 33rd year of Emperor Yuan’s reign, Jiang Xuan made many military achievements and was granted the title of Marquis of Divine Power. He led the army and, together with the King of Jin, defeated the elite troops of Nanyue and recaptured Lingnan.]
[When you receive the message, cheer loudly]
[After recovering Lingnan, Marquis Shenwei did not stop there. Instead, at the order of Emperor Yuan, he marched non-stop to attack the Wei and Dali dynasties, successively recovering the lost territories, and then turned his guns and attacked the northern barbarians.]
[34th year of Emperor Yuan’s reign]
[You received a letter from the King of Jin. In the letter, the King of Jin told you that Jiang Xuan must be a god. While expressing his admiration, he also said with a wry smile that he had tried to recruit him but failed, which was a pity.]
【After that, you received another message】
[Marquis of Divine Power Jiang Xuan, under the order of Emperor Yuan, personally led an army of more than 700,000 to settle accounts with the various dynasties, and won victory after victory. His prestige was at its peak, and he was named King of Zhenbei by the previous emperor.]
[At this point, the crisis of the Dawu Dynasty has been resolved]
[Your life has returned to what it was like in the past, as plain as water, without any waves]
【You have remained the same over the years】
[Every year, a large amount of money and grain is sent to Lingnan, which not only strengthens the foundation of King Jin, but also makes King Jin's ambition grow and become difficult to control.]
[Such days continued for more than ten years]
[The 45th year of Emperor Yuan’s reign]
[You received bad news. His Majesty has passed away.]
[You still have some feelings for Emperor Yuan. After all, apart from Prince Jin, Emperor Yuan, who was still the Crown Prince, was the only one who cared for you.]
