Chapter 144 He planned to do something big behind her back
"Your Majesty, can you let the An family's carriages follow Lord Xia all the way north?"
There are bandits on the road from Daxia to Beiyong. If Anjia travels alone, he may easily be robbed.
It would be much safer if we could follow the court.
By then, we can resell these new things from Daxia and make a lot of profit.
"Does the An family also want to get involved in this business?" Lu Yanshi glanced at her.
"It is because of the emperor's protection that the An family has been able to live in peace until now. This time we went north to sell these things in order to promote our country's prestige and let those people know how prosperous our Great Xia is, so that they can be proud to be the citizens of our Great Xia." An Miaoyi said, holding up three fingers.
"After paying normal taxes on the profits from this trip, the An family is willing to give you another 30% of the profits privately. What do you think?"
Lu Yanshi was suddenly moved.
When the An family purchased these things, they had to purchase them from the Ministry of Industry, and they had to pay taxes after that. After paying the taxes, they had to give him an additional 30%.
Why would he disagree with making three times the money from the same thing?
"I really admire your wonderful ideas, my beloved concubine. In that case, I'll do as you say." Lu Yanshi curled the corners of his lips.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." After hearing his words, An Miaoyi knew what was going on. She directly sent a letter to her family and told them all about her plan.
The An family also knew how profitable this was, so they agreed without hesitation.
This is their business for the An family and the emperor. He wants to see if there is any blind guy who dares to snatch it away.
…
After the reinforcements from southern Xinjiang withdrew, Shen Liuzheng began a full-scale counterattack.
Although Xin Poshan is capable, he is under great pressure from Shen Liuzheng, and there are people in the imperial city who keep holding him back.
He still lost.
Xichang was defeated by Daxia and was forced to abandon Mengding City.
In just a few days, Shen Liuzheng turned the tide of the battle.
After a month of struggle, the city finally came under the control of Daxia.
Shen Liuzheng wanted to press on and continue to attack.
Zhang Chensha jumped out and sang a different tune, saying that they should continue to rest and recuperate, celebrate their success, boost morale, and give the soldiers a chance to catch their breath.
Shen Liuzheng sneered: "No wonder Daxia has been unable to take Xichang for so long. It turns out that General Zhang has to rest for a month after conquering a city."
Zhang Chensha blushed at her sarcastic remarks.
He just wanted to win some favor in front of the soldiers and regain some of the status that was taken away by Shen Liuzheng.
I didn't expect Shen Liuzheng to be so disrespectful.
Shen Liuzheng looked at the soldiers in the barracks and encouraged them, "Everyone, listen to my orders, take Xichang, and return home as soon as possible. Help the emperor unify the world and become soldiers of the greatest country. From now on, there will only be Daxia, no other countries."
"The people of Daxia are waiting for our triumphant return. When you return, you will be Daxia's meritorious officials and heroes."
Just a few words made everyone so excited that they wanted to pick up their swords and fight the people of Xichang to the death.
"Take Xichang! Promote our country's prestige!" Lu Qi took the lead in shouting slogans.
The soldiers below immediately followed suit and shouted.
"Take Xichang! Enhance our national prestige!"
From being untidy at the beginning to being neat and tidy in the end.
The passion of everyone in the barracks was ignited.
Even the wounded soldiers lying in the military medical camp started shouting.
"Take Xichang! Enhance our national prestige!"
Zhang Chensha's face was as cold as frost.
Shen Liuzheng had only been here for more than ten days, but he had actually conquered the soldiers that he had led for several months.
How could he not be angry.
"Shen Liuzheng, let you be proud for a while, and then we'll see." He left with gritted teeth.
In the next few battles, Zhang Chensha did not cause trouble again, but instead obeyed Shen Liuzheng's orders.
This attitude made Shen Liuzheng suspicious.
How could a petty person like Zhang Chensha just let it go? He even tried to please her in every way.
If one is diligent without any reason, he is either a traitor or a thief.
But she was busy taking Xichang and had no time to deal with him, so she gave an order to Shenshouying.
Let him keep an eye on Zhang Chensha.
The two brothers, Shenshouying, are skilled in stalking and are very quick in their movements, making them perfect for this job.
Her hunch proved to be correct.
Zhang Chensha's flattery was only temporary, he was planning to do something big behind her back.
"He planned to set a trap to kill you in the last battle before you took Xichang." Liang Feiying couldn't help but show contempt and anger on his face when he talked about this.
He was fed poison by Lu Yanshi and sent to the border to work with Shen Liuzheng. He was very dissatisfied at first.
But gradually, he was conquered by Shen Liuzheng.
She used her strength to prove to everyone that women are just as good as men.
There have never been any cowards or losers in the Shen family.
So now when he heard that Zhang Chensha was going to kill such an outstanding general because of his own selfishness, how could he not be angry.
"He dares to think so." Shen Liuzheng sneered.
"I originally thought that we were all colleagues, so there was no need to resort to such fratricide. Since he wanted to die so badly, I would help him."
Hearing this, Liang Feiying immediately became interested.
"General, what should we do?"
"Don't be impatient. Just keep an eye on him and make sure you understand how he is going to set up his plan. Then we can catch him in a jar." Shen Liuzheng smiled faintly.
"Okay!" Liang Feiying agreed immediately and went back to keep an eye on the situation.
Shen Liuzheng led the soldiers all the way west.
No matter how capable Xin Poshan is, he is unable to turn the situation around if he is held back by his pig teammates.
Fu Bi was stirring up trouble in Xichang, and several princes died one after another.
Fu Bi was dumbfounded.
He originally only wanted the third prince to die, but he didn't expect that the second and fourth princes were also gone.
The emperor was so angry at the princes that he vomited blood and suffered a stroke.
The court is in chaos now.
Only the young fifth and sixth princes could ascend the throne, and the ministers argued endlessly about who should be made the crown prince.
Xin Poshan, who was fighting outside, was called back.
Without him, the Xichang army was like a pile of loose sand, and was beaten by Shen Liuzheng without any ability to fight back.
As they were about to approach the capital of Xichang, Zhang Chensha could no longer hold back.
"The day after tomorrow you will pass this information to Shen Liuzheng, send away all her confidants, and leave her alone. Then trick her into going in the direction I set, and kill Shen Liuzheng on the spot, making it appear that she was killed by people from Xichang. Do you remember?" He found his confidant and revealed the plan.
"General, do you really want to take action against General Shen?" Fang Kang was a little hesitant.
"What kind of general is she? She is just the emperor's favorite concubine. Even if one concubine dies, there are still several in the harem. You don't need to worry about her." Zhang Chensha waved his hand.
"If this can be accomplished, you and I will be the biggest contributors to the capture of Xichang. Do you dare to take a chance?"
He seduced the hesitant Fang Kang.
