Chapter 19 Reaction of all parties
In the morning of the next day, Ye Ying was seriously injured and dying. In the frozen crystal coffin, the news that he could never wake up spread throughout the imperial capital and became the focus of discussion among the people of the imperial capital.
At the same time, 10,000 elite Ye's army collapsed overnight and disappeared in the barracks. The news that the An Lie Chamber of Commerce, one of the 18 major chambers of commerce under the Ye family, was forcibly taken over by the Ye family because all the people of the An Lie family died strangely overnight, also spread throughout the imperial capital, causing the people of the imperial capital. Discussion and speculation.
All the businessman aristocratic mercenary adventurers with a sensitive sense of smell have realized that a storm is brewing with Ye Ying's serious injury, and the Ye family will become the center of the storm. Whether the Ye family can stand still in the upcoming storm has become their biggest concern.
As one of the four generals of Wuguo, Ye Ying holds real power and has many industries. Now Ye Ying is seriously injured and dying, and all the industries of the Ye family have fallen into the hands of Ye Chen.
However, Ye Chen does not have the strength and prestige of Ye Ying, and he can't control many greedy nobles in the imperial capital at all. Therefore, the rich industry of the Ye family will become the object of many great nobles in the imperial capital. Once the Ye family is destroyed under the joint attack of many great nobles in the imperial capital, then these small noble businessmen Mercenary adventurers have the opportunity to get a piece of the pie, so they pay great attention to the future dynamics of the Ye family.
In the central area of the capital of the State of Wu, in a magnificent palace hall, the king of the State of Wu, with a majestic face, sat quietly on the main throne, looked at many ministers under the stage, and said faintly, "You all know what happened last night! Now you talk about what to do?
"Your Majesty, Ye Chen used the hidden power of the Ye family, regardless of the laws of the empire, and cruelly killed hundreds of An Lie's family. It was very abominable not to leave a living place, and did not pay attention to the majesty of the empire at all. I suggest that Ye Chen be deprived of the qualification to inherit all Ye Ying's industries and exiled him to exile island. !"
As soon as the voice of the king of the State of Wu fell, Chen Fei's father, Chen Hao, who was the same general of the town like Ye Ying, immediately got up, took a step forward and said loudly.
As soon as the An Lie family defected to Chen Hao, it was killed by Ye Chen's sender, which greatly damaged Chen Hao's face. He must make a fierce response and give Ye Chen and Ye family a heavy counterattack to save his Chen Hao's lost face.
"Do you have any evidence that the An Lie family was killed by Ye Chen?"
The high king of the State of Wu glanced at Chen Hao casually and said lightly.
The king of Wu was very clear about Chen Hao's thoughts and didn't pay much attention to it. He just asked a faint rhetorical question.
"No, but I'm sure that hundreds of members of the An Lie family were sent by Ye Chen to kill!"
Seeing the cold reaction of the king of the State of Wu, Chen Hao couldn't help saying anxiously.
"Don't talk nonsense without evidence! After Ye Chen is a loyal minister, there is no conclusive evidence. How can I convict him? Do you want me to be scolded as a faint king and have lost the hearts of the people of Hanwu and many loyal people of Wu?
Seeing Chen Hao continue to speak ignorantly, the king of the State of Wu snorted coldly and severely criticized.
Seeing that the king of Wu was angry, Chen Hao immediately shut up and slowly retreated to his actions.
"Idiot! Brainless martial arts man!"
The fat minister of property took a look at Chen Hao, who was depressed. After swearing in his heart, he got up and walked to the center of the hall and said, "Your Majesty, Ye Chen is 16 years old today. He is already an adult and can go out to practice. I suggest that your majesty grant Ye Chen the title of Baron Ye Chen and give Linhai County as a title. Let Ye Chen manage thousands of miles of land and thousands of miles of sea territory for the empire.
Given that the Ye family has only one only son, and Ye Chen is about to go to Linhai County to take office, Ye Chen can't take care of the Ye family's industry in the imperial capital. In order not to prevent the Ye family's industry from withering, the Imperial Ministry of Finance is willing to invest and buy it.
As soon as the others in the hall heard the words of the Chancellor of Finance, they secretly said in their hearts that they exchanged the land that did not belong to the empire and a small barony title for the Ye family's industry worth more than 100 million yuan. They really deserved to be the boss of the Imperial Ministry of Finance.
"Your Majesty, I will reconsider!"
"Your Majesty, I will reconsider!"
“、、、”
The fat Chancellor of the Exchequer, as soon as he retreated to the ministers, the ministers in his faction, rose up for reconsideration.
"Your Majesty, General Chen Wu, General Du Yu, General Li Xing, General Sun Wei on the south wind border of the empire, General Qian Fei, General Zhao Wu on the western border of the empire, General Song Fei, General Li Wei on the northern border of the empire, General Lu Chen, a total of 56 generals, jointly written a thorough investigation by Your Majesty. General Ye Ying was ambushed. At the same time, I hope your majesty will treat loyal descendants well!"
When the high-ranking king of Wu was thinking about how to respond to the suggestion of the Minister of Finance, a eunuch hurried into the hall with a magic letter.
As soon as the eunuch's voice fell, the high-ranking king of Wu and many ministers in the hall were stunned and fell into a strange silence.
The four armies with the largest number of the empire are stationed on the four borders of the empire. Each legion has 200,000 troops and belongs to 20 generals, and each general commands 10,000 horses. This is also a means to prevent the rebellion of the imperial border army.
Now, 56 generals jointly wrote a letter to protect the Ye family and Ye Chen, which suddenly complicated the problem of the Ye family and Ye Chen. If it is not handled properly, it is likely to cause turmoil in the empire. After all, 56 generals are waiting to change 560,000 border troops, which is enough to plunge the Wu Kingdom into a civil war that is full of life. Medium.
At this time, both the king of Wu and many ministers in the hall had a new view of Ye Chen. Originally, they thought that Ye Chen was just a milky hairy boy and could only be slaughtered by them. Now they know that Ye Chen is very smart and knows how to defend themselves with the strength of others. Self.
The 56 generals jointly wrote have a common feature, that is, like Ye Ying, although they hold real power, they do not have any titles. What happened to Ye Ying is likely to happen to them tomorrow, which preserves Ye Ying's interests and preserves their common interests. Interests.
Of course, the reason why 56 generals living in various places can unite to protect the interests of the Ye family has a significant relationship with Ye Chen, because Ye Chen gave 60 percent of the Ye family's industry in the imperial capital to them 56 generals.
The Ye family's industry in the imperial capital is worth more than 100 million yuan, about 1 billion yuan. Each of their 56 generals can share about 10 million gold coins.
10 million gold coins are not much for these powerful and powerful generals, but they can well connect 56 of them and form a close alliance to jointly defend the interests of the collective.
It can be said that Ye Chen's decision left a cancer to the State of Wu and gave the State of Wu an additional military group out of the control of the empire.
"Today's court meeting ends here, and the meeting ends!"
After a long silence, the high king of the State of Wu said lightly and left the hall and returned to his bedroom.
Seeing that His Majesty had left, many ministers in the hall also looked at their familiar friends and left the hall.
"How can it be! Ye Chen is so cruel that he dares to play with me like this. Is he so sure that I dare not do anything to him?"
The king of Wu, who returned to his bedroom, cursed loudly with an ugly face.
Fifty-six border generals jointly wrote a letter, which is a naked military threat! It is also the most intolerable thing for the king of Wu!
"Your Majesty! The truth has been settled, and it doesn't matter if you are angry now! The most important thing we should do now is how to maximize the benefits and how to deal with the affairs of the Ye family.
In the bedroom of the king of Wu, an old man in a starry sacrificial robe looked at the ugly king of Wu and said faintly.
"Your Majesty! The four dukes of the empire held real power and held hundreds of thousands of soldiers. They have not listened to the imperial edict for a long time. The union of 56 generals on the border may be an opportunity to kill the four dukes in one fell swoop.
"How do you say this?"
Hearing the words of the old man in the starry sacrificial robe, the king of the State of Wu immediately calmed down and asked curiously.
