Chapter 231

After a closer look, Chen Shubao's two daughters were very beautiful and very tempting.

It seems that it is good to accept it as a concubine.

He is the King of Jin and the Prince, with only one wife and not a few concubines, which seems abnormal.

But when Xiang Yu thought of Chen Shubao's identity, he was very ashamed.

They are both plastic brotherly relationships, but they are so plastic.

I think you are a brother, but you want to be my dad. It's not interesting enough!

Xiang Yu coughed and said, "Mr. Chen, I regard you as a brother, how can I take the daughter of a brother as a concubine?"

Chen Shubao said: "For your brother and be the devastated king, you may not be able to take good care of your two beloved daughters. If your Highness is willing, you can put the two daughters in the room as concubines. If your brother does not agree, the two daughters will definitely be taken to the palace as slaves!"

Xiang Yu said, "Mr. Chen thought a lot! Aristocrats do not kill aristocrats, and the emperor does not kill the emperor. My father is a wise king. How could he kill the emperor of the enemy country? He only treats Mr. Chen's wives, concubines, children, and does not allow any military generals, princes, etc. to insult him. If someone bullies Mr. Chen, he will definitely draw his sword to help him!"

As he said that, Xiang Yu took off the jade pendant he carried with him and handed it to Chen Shubao, saying, "Mr. Chen, if someone bullies you, you can report my name!"

Chen Shubao took the jade pendant and said gratefully: "Thank you, Your Highness!"

Xiang Yu said: "The two nieces are both beautiful and beautiful. But if you marry a powerful man in the capital, why should you marry someone as a concubine!"

At this moment, a woman said, "The King of Jin is too humble. As the saying goes, "I would rather marry a hero than be a mediocre concubine. Your Highness is a contemporary hero. Why should I be humble!"

Another woman said, "Your Highness, treat us well, but after all, we are people who are devastated in our country and cannot help but live or die. Please beg your highness to be merciful and take us as our two men to seek protection!"

As he said that, the two women fell to the ground with a nice expression.

Xiang Yu was stunned and looked down. He happened to see the two girls' ravines and endless wonders.

After drinking a glass of wine, Xiang Yu covered up his embarrassment and said, "Don't want this to happen to you, Mr. Chen! This is in the army, everything is inconvenient. Even if it is others, I will talk about other things when I arrive in the capital!"

Chen Shubao said, "Thank you, Your Highness!"

"I've been drinking almost all the time, so I've said goodbye!"

He said that, he got up and left.

Chen Shubao tried to keep it, Xiang Yu responded, and the two said goodbye.

Watching King Jin go away.

Back in the big tent, Chen Shubao breathed a sigh of relief and sat aside weakly.

The more respectful and polite the King of Jin was to him, the more uneasy he became.

After a moment, Zhang Lihua walked out from behind. Although she lacked the luxurious embellishment, she still had a beautiful appearance and indescribable charm.

Chen Shubao said: "Who is King Jin?"

Zhang Lihua said, "King of Jin, a gentleman! That day, the Sui army broke into Jinling, and someone gave me my body to King Jin, but King Jin refused. He also used soldiers to protect me, and there were many sisters to avoid being humiliated by soldiers. If it weren't for the protection of King Jin, we would have become other Sui generals and desecrated them arbitrarily!"

Thinking back on that day, when I saw King Jin, my heart was thrilled.

Chen Shubao was a literati of a generation, elegant and indifferent, like a clear spring, clear and cool; but King Jin was so majestic, like a glass of strong wine, which was hot in his throat.

Chen Shubao said: "Only by forming a marriage with King Jin can you protect yourself. Unfortunately, King Jin is a gentleman and does not accept it!"

"King of Jin, be my real brother!"

The Sui army looked at him, and they all took his position as the devastated king, and they looked at him with contempt; only the King of Jin looked at him with regret.

During these days, King Jin treated others sincerely and was a gentleman.

But this is why he made up his mind to give his two beloved daughters to King Jin as his concubine.

A woman will get married sooner or later. Instead of asking someone who is not a human being, it is better to give it to someone who knows the truth. Even if it is a concubine, it is also the concubine of the King of Jin, and his status is above other wives.

"It's better to go to the capital and talk about other things!"

Chen Shubao said.

"Your Highness, it's too late to arrive in the capital!"

Zhang Lihua said: "Even if the emperor of the Sui Dynasty was kind and the King of Jin was a gentleman, the others were not sure. Only by making friends with the King of Jin can you be safe!"

Chen Shubao hesitated and said, "But the King of Jin has refused. If it continues, it will cause dissatisfaction with the King of Jin!"

Zhang Lihua said: "Your Majesty, you should think about it early!"

Chen Shubao sighed.

It was already dark, with lights and torches around it.

Looking at the starry sky, Chen Shubao was at a loss.

But I can't sleep at night.

As I walked, I arrived at a tent, and there was a woman sitting in the tent, paying sincerity to the Buddha.

This woman is dignified and generous, has a plump body, kind eyebrows and good eyes, has an outstanding appearance, and is not inferior to Zhang Lihua, but is the queen

It was the queen who sank Wuhua.

It’s Chen Shubao’s cousin, and they have a bad relationship with each other.

"Empress, just now, King Jin just left!" Chen Shubao said.

"I am not the queen, and Your Majesty is not the emperor anymore. Be careful of your words!" Chen Wuhua said: "As long as you are careful in your words and actions, we can be safe and worry-free."

"I hope so!"

Uncle Chen said.

...

The army was advancing, and a month later, it arrived in Chang'an.

First, the ceremony of offering the captives.

Chen Shubao knelt down, held the jade seal in his hand, raised it high above his head, and said, "Sinner minister, I don't know the heavenly soldiers, come and ask for surrender!"

"The world is united, and the public can be safe!"

Yang Jian looked at the former enemy emperor and knelt at his feet, unable to express his happiness.

He generously forgave the enemy emperor and canonized him as Duke Chen.

As for other royal families in the Chen Dynasty, they also gave preferential treatment. Most of them moved to Guanzhong or Longxi and gave them land. It was impossible to continue living a luxurious life. Most of them farmed for a living and became ordinary landlords.

When he arrived at the hall, Yang Jian began to reward the ministers.

Everyone was very happy.

As for the first meritorious official, the King of Jin was even more rewarded, second only to the crown prince, and even surpassed.

When everyone retreated, only Yang Jian, Queen Dugu, and Xiang Yu were left.

Yang Jian asked: "Why, King Jin, what about Chen Shubao?"

Xiang Yu said: "Your Majesty, do you want to listen to the truth or be lies?"

Yang Jian said: "What is the truth and what is the lies?"

Xiang Yu said, "The lies are Chen Shubao, who is greedy for beauty and ignores government affairs, and eventually loses his country because of his incompetence! As for the truth, Chen Shubao is neither stupid nor mediocre, but is very talented, at least he is the king who guards the city. If he is in a peaceful and prosperous era, he can be Emperor Wen!"

Emperor Wen, the evaluation is not low.

Yang Jian said: "Is Chen Shubao a wise king?"

"Yes!" Xiang Yu said.

Yang Jian smiled and said, "Chen Shubao is a wise monarch, but in less than three months, the Chen Dynasty was destroyed. This is the wise monarch!"

Xiang Yu said: "Don't judge heroes by success or failure. The Sui army went south with 500,000 elite troops and food, but the Chen Dynasty army was less than 200,000, and they were still scattered everywhere and were suddenly attacked!"

"When you use the strong to fight the weak, if you use the fast to fight the slow, if you use the more to fight the less, the gap in military strength is huge, and the gap in national strength is huge, which cannot be made up for by a mere wise monarch. Not to mention that he is not good at military affairs, even if his ancestor Chen Baxian leads his troops, he will definitely be defeated!"

"The strength gap is too large, and a wise ruler will also destroy the country!"
