Chapter 852 The hero who cut off the national thief, the brother-in-law of the former husband
Regardless of the many reasons on the side of the eternal side, the second son saw that his father's head was still being carried by him, and roared angrily: "Who will take down this thief with me!?"
The embarrassing thing is that although many people habitually moved, they saw the eternal side who raised Fang Tian's halberd, and retreated a few steps. Everyone knows that the ancient side is very powerful, but anyone who is sincere in avenging the king of Shu, or who is eager to make meritorious contributions, has already rushed up, and now they are all lying on the ground, and the ancient side has beheaded four generals in a row, which has stopped the scene.
Seeing that the rest of the people were a little hesitant, the second prince was even more furious, but Wan Gu said: "I dare to do today's things, except for this national thief, he should be dedicated to the imperial court, and those who are willing to go to the capital with me can go together, and those who are willing to return to their hometown can also do their own thing." If you want to avenge Xi Ze Yaoshi, just come forward and share life and death here, and I will also fulfill your loyalty!!"
As soon as the words of the ancient party came out, many people's hearts were shaken, and Xi Ze Yaoshi fled from the capital in embarrassment, basically the general trend has gone. Now that he is also dead, some of them who came from the capital naturally want to go back, after all, they are outsiders to Shudi. Some of them want to return to their hometowns, and now is the opportunity.
Seeing that everyone didn't do anything, the second son was extremely resentful: "You are supported by the Xize family, but now you are doing this, are you all ready to be the second minister and thief!?"
The people around him didn't dare to respond, although they were all more or less dissatisfied with Yuzawa Yaoshi, and even had a little hatred. But what the second prince said is right, in a hierarchical and orderly environment like Da Zhou, betraying the lord and killing the king is not a small sin.
Fortunately, these generals didn't struggle for too long, and only heard the sound of artillery in the distance, and it turned out that Tianfang City had begun to fire artillery at the forward position. Although there were no casualties, the Shu army in the chaos was clear, and it seemed that Long Aotian knew that the Shu army's position was in chaos, and he was ready to send troops to break through the Shu army camp at any time.
Gu Yueqing said: "Second son, now is not the time to entangle and take revenge, not to mention the threat of Tianfang City, even if it is a fight, no one is the opponent of the Eternal Side." ”
The second son was unwilling in his heart: "Brother-in-law, you are a monk of the Xianxia Sect, are you invincible?"
Gu Yueqing smiled bitterly: "Second son, we are righteous brothers, how much ability we have is clear to each other, originally between me and my eldest brother is less wins and more losses, but now we are not opponents, let's save our strength for today's plan." ”
Gu Yueqing is not a disciple of Yushan, even if he knows some Xuanmen spells, he is not the opponent of the ancient side, he may be able to fight hard before, but now he was seriously injured because of the battle with Venia, relying on Ma Lusha's magic medicine, he has recovered six or seventy percent, and it is definitely not the enemy of the ancient side to do it. If the general of the Shu army does not remember the dead and wounded, it is possible to pile him to death, but now it seems unlikely.
When the ancient side saw that Tianfang City was also dispatched, he said: "If you want to fight, you will fight, and if you don't fight, I won't accompany you!" Brothers, if you are willing to go to the capital to fight for a rich man, follow me!"
The ancient side is highly armed and strong, and there are also some people who want to shout out this voice, and indeed some people follow. The second son gritted his teeth, but there was nothing he could do: "Brother-in-law, let's go too, let's go back to Yongzhou first." ”
Gu Yueqing nodded, and cast a spell: "The second prince and Zuo Weilang will Gu Yueqing here, don't fight in the department, retreat in the direction of Yongzhou!" Since he is a wind spirit body monk, this order can be spread by spells, and he can't care about how everyone goes, but at least give those who are willing to follow the Xi Ze family a direction to escape.
The chaos of the night did not last long, I saw the light in the air, and the night suddenly turned into day, it turned out that Ma Lusha took out the magic weapon Qianli High Beam, which was used to illuminate the distance in addition to hurting people.
The chaotic Shu camp was suddenly shocked, and those who were close even recognized Ma Lusha. Immediately, Long Aotiande's army went out of the city, and many people chose to surrender when they saw this.
At this point, Yuzawa's 100,000-strong army fell apart with his death, some of them were killed in the chaos, and some of them took advantage of the chaos to scatter. The Wangu side took away more than 10,000 people, the second prince and Gu Yueqing gathered the remnants all the way, and there were more than 20,000 people when they fled back to Yongzhou, plus the defenders of Yongzhou totaled more than 50,000 people, this is the only strength left in the Xize family.
Long Aotian surrendered 30,000 people, and his strength was expanded, which can be regarded as officially inheriting the power of the original King of Shu, and completely driving the Xi Ze family out of Shu.
......
The ancient side only cared about fleeing, and after walking out for a while, he found that although he had gathered nearly 10,000 people and defected to the court with the head of Xi Ze Yaoshi, he looked like such a remnant of the defeated army, with neither land nor food and grass, how could he gain a foothold in the court with a human head?
Besides, it is Chu Hou and Gan Liang Yiyong who occupy the capital now, and their own broken soldiers and horses have not been swallowed alive?
He didn't wait for too long, a group of men and horses joined him, it turned out that Xiao Huairen took advantage of the chaos and ran out with thousands of henchmen to rob a batch of grain and grass, specifically to wait for the ancient party.
There is food in his hand, he is not panicked, the two sides add up to more than 10,000, nearly 20,000 people, and the ancient side asked Ji Xiao Huairen, what should be the next step?
Xiao Huairen thought for a while: "This is going to the capital, there are Dezhou and Yuzhou in the middle, although these two state capitals are not rich for the time being, they can also be used as shelters first, and send people to Beijing with news to explore the truth." Now there are more soldiers in the south and fewer soldiers in the north. You have fought with the Chu army, and I am afraid that there will be a gap. The blonde princess Ji Ya in the north was born in the royal family, and if you kill Yuzawa Yaoshi this time, you may be able to do what she likes, so you might as well get closer to the northern army. ”
Hearing this, the Wangu side nodded, first occupied Dezhou and Yuzhou as a way out, the capital now has 100,000 southern troops, 40,000 northern troops, and after occupying the two states, the strength can reach 30,000, and it is indeed better to cooperate with the northern army.
Half a month later, the capital
Although production and operation have not yet fully resumed, the streets of the capital have gradually become lively. Whether it is Ji Ya or Chu Hou Zhiyu Changkong, there is no large-scale destruction of the capital, although there are also looting, but under the control of Wu Yan and Ye Meidie, everything is running in an orderly manner.
For people who go out to work or are inconvenient to fire, this kind of cheap snack shop is the most popular and the easiest to gather people to pass on the news.
Today, it is rare to see three women sitting there, eating the popular staple food of the rich bread (vegetarian risotto). Generally speaking, it is either a man who is busy with work, or an idle man who likes to gather in the mountains, and very few young women sit here. However, seeing that the three of them looked mediocre, there was nothing special, so no one paid more attention.
And these three people are Ji Ya, Xiongying and Lei Fang after cross-dressing. Following Ruan Yu and Chang Xiu, Xiong Ying and Lei Fang became Ji Yaxin's left and right wing guards. Recently, he has often traveled with the blonde princess. After Qi Diaoyan changed her makeup, the three of them hid their delicate faces and turned into three ordinary women who were not good-looking.
Originally, the lacquer carver was good at cross-dressing, but he had never dealt with the problem of dyeing his hair, but the capital is the capital in the end, and there is also a baking and dyeing technology that is not available in other places, and Ji Ya is the first time to dye all her hair black.
Seeing everyone eat and drink, even if it was just the rich cake, Ji Ya was very happy. Shu King Xi Ze Yaoshi faced two army attacks, and there was a rebellion in his hometown, although the time was urgent, although he took away most of the reserves in the capital, but he didn't have time to scrape the ground. Moreover, it was in a hurry, and the damage to the capital was small, so that the main body of the capital division could be preserved.
It's just that the Chu army has been conquering the king of Shu for nearly a year, and there is no spare strength to supply the capital. This time, Ji Ya personally brought a large number of materials back and forth, and Wu Yan and Meng Mengda were responsible for handling them. Even if it is a flat sale of the capital, there is a lot of profit, so Ji Ya did not ask for much benefit, but tried to maintain the stability of the capital.
With money and food, plus the army occupying the capital, as long as it is not too much, it can erupt here at any time to break out the essence of the 400-year-old capital.
Ji Ya likes this scene very much, she could have been free from the world, why did she have to plunge headlong into the troubled times? Isn't this the reason? It's a pity that Yunzhong is not like Jingshi, there is not such a long time of accumulation, it is not easy to develop it, and Ji Ya still has a long way to go.
After eating, those idlers who didn't want to disperse began to talk about the mountains again: "Do you know, the big hero who killed the Shu thief is coming back!"
"Who doesn't know this, I heard that Chu Hou and Her Royal Highness the princess are also going to come out to greet you......"
Ji Ya frowned, but it was because she heard this. Qi Diaoyan has already reported that half a month ago, Xiao Huairen united with Shu to rebel and kill Xi Ze Yaoshi. Most of the Shu army subdued Long Aotian, and only Binghuo Langjun Gu Yueqing protected the second son of the Xi Ze family and returned to Yongzhou.
In order to promote his own righteousness, the Marquis of Chu defined Xi Ze Yaoshi as a national thief, after all, since the establishment of the Great Zhou Dynasty, he is the only one who is the king of the courtiers. And the people's senses for him are not good, Xi Ze Yaoshi did not make any distinctive deeds after occupying the capital, and before leaving, he also robbed the army, and the people of the capital naturally called him 'Shu thief'. For the Wangu side and Xiao Huairen who killed him, they are too far away from the people of the stratum, and everyone doesn't understand them, so they only regard them as thieves and heroes as a talking point, as for saying that Chu Hou and Ji Ya are going to greet them, this is completely bragging.
The people around them chatted more and more enthusiastically, as if the killing of the King of Shu by one side of the ancient world also had something to do with them, and they seemed to be honored one by one. It's no wonder that Yuzawa Yaoshi, who forcibly claimed the king, is the first prince, so he is naturally a representative of power. And although the Wangu side is a general, his background is not high, and he is completely the light of the common people.
To be honest, Ji Ya doesn't like these two people, the rest of the ancient side is fine, but this act of betraying the master is a stain, and Xiao Huairen is even more untrustworthy, starting from a small official to betray Da Zhou and worship the Holy Maiden's Sect, and then voted back, relying on the second brother and the Song Party to take the throne, and relying on betrayal to vote for a new master, this time it's good, completely turned over and became the master.
The problem is that he wants to hide but can't dodge, the other party has been in contact with his side two days ago, and he has a great sense of unity, even if Ji Ya doesn't like it anymore, he can't use his likes and dislikes to decide everything. The current situation in the capital itself is also dominated by the Chu army, those two want to get a piece of the pie in the capital, and it is best to join forces with Gan Liang and Yiyong, if Ji Ya is unwilling, maybe they will be pushed to the side of Chu Hou. So now Ji Ya is simply out of sight and out of mind, and it is not suitable for her to play politics.
......
In the original Xiangguo Mansion in the capital, two women were drinking tea in the pavilion, it was the generation of demon concubine Su Lian and the poisonous concubine Ye Meidie, but these two women with a bad reputation got together.
Ye Meidie actually likes Su Lian a lot, although she has hurt many people, but a woman wants to be based in troubled times, if she is not ruthless, how can she protect herself?
And Su Lian actually admires Ye Meidie very much, although she also has a lot of means, but she understands that this is just a little cleverness, not any wisdom. I'm just relying on beautiful tricks to get on top of men. And Ye Meidie is really stirring the wind and rain in the troubled times, and she only relies on herself.
On the eve of Ze Yaoshi, he was in a hurry to leave Beijing, and he didn't carefully calculate everything, if it was in normal times, he would definitely have to ask Xiao Huairen's family, so this time Su Lian had the opportunity to be left alone.
Ye Meidie smiled: "Niangniang, your man is coming back, this time I'm afraid that he is going to soar into the sky, tsk, what a great achievement in killing national thieves." "There is no nominal relationship between Su Lian and Xiao Huairen, they are not wives or concubines, so there is no other name.
Su Lian also smiled and said: "Thanks to Miss Ye's strategy, the master has this opportunity, but this is also a happy event for the master, and it has nothing to do with me, the convicted slave." "Since she came here, she has quickly corrected her position, she is no longer a concubine in the palace, just Xiao Huairen's 'slave'.
Ye Meidie didn't think so: "It is not up to me that he has today, but his own plan, and that good brother, oh, it should be the help of 'brother-in-law'." ”
When it came to the brother-in-law, even Su Lian showed embarrassment for a rare time. This is what Ye Meidie usually jokes about her. The so-called brother-in-law is the title of the sister's husband relationship, which is commonly known as a burden. And Xiao Huairen's brother-in-law is Long Aotian.
Concubine Hua Bingrong and Concubine Su Lian are both concubines of the former king, and they are naturally sisters in the harem. Now these two beauties, the virtuous concubine is obtained by Long Aotian, the demon concubine is accepted by Xiao Huairen, and Ye Meidie is the brother-in-law here. It's just that this word always reminds Su Lian of her previous identity and current situation.
Of course, the embarrassment is only for a moment, after all, that serious, dignified and virtuous concubine, isn't it also a generous and other man?
Seeing that Su Lian was a little self-deprecating, Ye Meidie said: "Niangniang doesn't have to be like this, I believe that Lord Xiao will not really treat you as a slave, otherwise he would not secretly ask us to protect you." ”
Hearing this, although Su Lian didn't say too much, but there was joy between her eyebrows, it seemed that Xiao Huairen still valued her, she knew that Xiao Huairen was not like the previous man, he was obsessed with her, at most he just paid attention to it, and regarded it as a precious and interesting plaything. If necessary, he can be abandoned at any time, but Su Lian also feels that it is enough.
Ye Meidie said again: "When Lord Xiao comes back, I will leave your mansion." In the past few days, I have seen each other at first sight, but if this is the case, how about the two of us marrying Jinlan? ”
Su Lian hurriedly said: "What did my sister say, and what is there between us?" "Su Lian is also a snake on the stick, she has known Ye Meidie for the past two days, and knows that she doesn't like to play too empty.
So Su Lian and Ye Meidie married Jin Lan and called each other sisters, Ye Meidie took a fancy to Su Lian's means and current position in the future, and Su Lian also wanted to have another way out of Xiao Huairen, so the two sides hit it off.
