Chapter 9 The situation is chaotic
Three days later, Chu Chen stabbed another villain.
The word "Zhang Pan" is written on it.
Today, Chu Chen was beaten by Zhang Pan's attendants. The reason was just because he accidentally blocked the way of Zhang Pan's carriage. Zhang Pan's attendants whipped him three times with a riding whip.
These three whippings left Chu Chen's skin and flesh raw, and it would take at least half a month to heal.
From beginning to end, Chu Chen did not resist. Although he was a peak skin-refining realm warrior, Zhang Pan's attendant was a bone-refining realm warrior whose strength was far above him, so he was no match.
Besides, he couldn't resist.
Feng Yuan's deeds are still vivid in his mind. If he chooses to resist, there is a high probability that he will follow in Feng Yuan's footsteps.
"A gentleman's revenge is never too late in ten years, bitch, I will remember this revenge from you, Master Chu, and this matter is not over yet!"
"I curse you to give birth to a son without a chrysanthemum, nine children and nine fathers!"
"..."
Chu Chen cursed a few words and cursed at the villain.
"Demon Queen, die!"
But he still felt that it was not enough, so he took out the queen's little figure and cursed it together.
Facing Zhang Pan, why didn't Chu Chen dare to resist?
It's not because there is a queen behind Zhang Pan. Without the queen, Zhang Pan is nothing.
Later, Chu Chen stabbed another villain.
Write Emperor Jingzheng.
Emperor Jing Zheng cannot escape the involvement of the Yan Kingdom in what it is now.
If he hadn't been unable to control his own wife, the Yan Kingdom would not have become what it is now, and Zhang Pan would not have dared to act recklessly and tyrannically in the imperial capital.
In the final analysis, it was all Emperor Jingzheng's fault.
"Emperor Dog, go to hell!"
Chu Chen's tasks became onerous every night, and each villain cursed a hundred times.
Three villains are three hundred times, but he never tires of it.
The more corrupt the situation in Dayan was, the harsher his curse words and sentences became.
It's a pity that no matter how much he curses, these three people are still alive and well.
The queen has great power and is in sole control of the world. Zhang Pan is in the imperial capital every day, confiscating homes and destroying families, and no one dares to control her.
Even Emperor Jing Zheng, who was the weakest in health, had news that he was seriously ill and dying every month, but he was one step away and was always saved by the imperial physician.
However, it is undeniable that Emperor Jing Zheng's body is getting weaker and weaker.
The situation in Dayan Chaotang became increasingly treacherous.
Several princes of the Dayan Royal Family were ready to make a move, and their eyes were set on the position under Emperor Jing Zheng.
Many courtiers gathered around the princes and gradually divided into three factions, the prince's faction, the second prince's faction, and the third prince's faction.
These three princes have strong maternal backgrounds, have the support of many ministers, and have secretly cultivated many teams. They all have the hope of ascending to the throne and taking charge of the throne.
The three princes did not fight with each other at first, but instead joined forces to fight against the queen, forcing the queen to stop interfering in government affairs on the grounds that the harem was not allowed to interfere in government affairs.
Facing the persecution of the three princes, the queen seemed to know that she was outmatched, so she returned power to the three princes, retreated to the harem, and stayed in the Yangxin Hall all day long, guarding the side of Emperor Jingzheng.
The queen lost power, and the power of her cousin Zhang suddenly fell to the bottom.
Zhang Pan was banned by his father and was not allowed to leave the Zhang Mansion and was unable to cause trouble in the imperial capital.
As soon as the queen retreated, the three princes immediately fell out and attacked each other. Every day, courtiers were imprisoned, and the charges were even more bizarre.
When you enter the court, you step with your left foot first, which is against etiquette; when you look too ugly, you disturb the emperor; when you speak too slowly, you disturb the order of the court, etc.
Fortunately, the three princes knew that Emperor Jing Zheng was not dead, so they exercised some restraint and did not make too much noise for the time being. The imperial capital could still maintain its former stability for the time being.
However, the three princes, Duke Gonggun, and many ministers were only focused on fighting for power, and no one cared about the disaster in Yongning Mansion and other places.
Even if the Ministry of Household Affairs allocates funds for disaster relief, most of the money goes into the hands of corrupt officials, and the victims cannot get a cent. As time goes by, more and more people rebel.
The three vassal kings of Dayan Kingdom also began to become restless.
The situation is so chaotic that the dynasty is likely to overthrow.
"Unless the Imperial Family of Dayan can find a son of destiny like Liu Xiu, Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty, or a peerless fierce man like Yue Fei can be found in the Imperial Court of Great Yan, will it be possible to save the building from collapse and create a better future for the Great Yan Kingdom?" Let’s continue our country’s destiny for hundreds more years.”
Chu Chen didn't think that the Yan Kingdom was so lucky. It might be able to survive for a while, but in the end it would probably have to change its dynasty.
None of this had much to do with him, and he continued to maintain his regular life.
If there is really a change of dynasty, he only needs to buy enough food, find a safe place to hide for a while, and then come out when the situation stabilizes.
Um.
The secret room under the drug store was renovated and transformed into an excellent refuge.
Just as he thought, Chu Chen bought a single bed, some easy-to-storage food, and some healing medicines in the secret room. Once something abnormal happened in the imperial capital, he would hide in it.
It is worth mentioning that the more unstable the situation in Dayan Kingdom is, the better the business of Manchunyuan will be.
In fact, this year's selection of oirans in Manchunyuan was even more vigorous than in previous years.
Several well-known dandies in the imperial capital spent a lot of money on this feast and promoted their favorite girls to become oirans.
In the end, Mr. Qin, the household secretary, favored Miss Xiang Ning to win the position of oiran this year.
There were six departments in the Great Yan Dynasty, the official department was in charge of power and the household department was in charge of money.
The Minister of Household Affairs has always been the richest position in the Yan Dynasty. He is in charge of all financial affairs such as territory, fields, household registration, taxes, salaries and wages, and has a high position.
The court allocated funds for disaster relief, and the first official who handled it was the Minister of Revenue.
With such a family background, Mr. Qin naturally did not treat money as money, and spent a lot of money just to make the beauty smile.
Chu Chen watched this feast, and he had to say that Mr. Qin had a good eye.
This figure, these pectoral muscles!
After two years, if Miss Xiang Ning is still in Manchunyuan, he may be able to experience it.
For example, the courtesan Chunxue accompanied Chu Chen to watch the whole process of selecting the courtesan and experienced the joy of the courtesan's drinking, and he only spent five taels of silver.
In comparison, Mr. Qin and others spent thousands of taels of gold to have a chance with the courtesan, which was a complete rip-off.
Although Miss Chunxue was only the courtesan of the previous year, the former courtesan was also a courtesan, and there was not much difference.
After all, he didn't have much spare money in his hand now, and it couldn't support him to squander it at will.
The pawnshop business is much better than before, but practicing martial arts is a bottomless pit.
It is easy to practice Shui Yuan Jue. You just need to meditate and practice, occasionally eat some herbs and take a medicinal bath.
Even meditating alone is not a bad idea, but the practice speed is a little slower. Relying on the water grinding skills, you can still enhance your strength little by little.
But the Soul-stealing Body-forging Sutra is different. When practicing, you must have herbs with abundant spiritual energy to assist.
The herbs needed to practice the Soul-stealing Body-forging Sutra are not ordinary herbs for treating diseases and injuries. They are not cheap. The cheapest ones cost four or five taels of silver.
Some precious herbs cost dozens or even hundreds of taels of silver.
In short, you can only become stronger if you spend money.
If there were not many precious herbs left by old man Shen in the medicine shop, Chu Chen's family assets would have been tossed out long ago.
