"Concubine, Cao Su is leading the soldiers to besiege Yizhou, I just got the battle report from the front this morning, their offensive is very smooth, it is estimated that Yizhou will be taken today and tomorrow,"

The kneeling man said hesitantly: "Killing him at this time may affect the battle situation." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Not perhaps, but for sure! Changing generals before the war is originally a taboo, not to mention that this is no longer a 'change of generals', but a killing of generals.

Based on his identity, the man didn't dare to question why Concubine Ning ordered the killing of a capable general, but he had to remind her of some 'facts'.

Concubine Ning raised her eyebrows on one side and said lightly: "So what?" If I can't even call the shots of a small thousand households, even if I take Yizhou and finally occupy the entire southwest, what's the point? ”

She has failed enough in this life, and her only wish is to 'do what she wants', if she can't even meet this small requirement, then what's the point of her living? Wouldn't it be better to simply die with that 'slut'?

The man choked, he had been working under Concubine Ning for nearly twenty years, and he thought that he had long understood the temperament of this master. But it wasn't until this moment that he discovered that Concubine Ning was such a willful and vexatious woman.

Just for her own 'wishful thinking', she completely ignored the overall situation of the palace, let alone the situation in front of her. It was as if all of this seemed like child's play to her.

The problem is, this is not child's play, not to mention how many years the palace has been preparing for this incident, just say that if it fails, they are all traitors, if it is better, only one person will die, and if it is worse, the nine clans will be cleaned up.

Men are not afraid of death, but they also don't want to die unclear!

After hesitating, the man still had the courage to say: "Concubine, Yizhou is very important to our great cause, uh, why not wait for Cao Su to attack Yizhou, and then, again, again-"

He couldn't go on, although there was still a screen between him and Concubine Ning, he could feel the chill emanating from Concubine Ning and the kind of momentum that made people tremble.

The man swallowed nervously, hung his head, and didn't dare to say another word.

Concubine Ning's bright red nails gently tapped on the armrest of the chair, tuk, tuk, tuk, the voice was very soft, but it sounded like a heavy hammer to the man's ears.

His nerves tensed even with the slight knock.

After a long time, Concubine Ning withdrew her fingers and said lightly: "Let people be numb, at noon the day after tomorrow at the latest, I will have a human head on my desk." "It's not Cao Su, that's you, or the 'Dark Twenty-Nine' who carried out the assassination plan.

Concubine Ning didn't say the last sentence explicitly, but the man understood it very well in his heart.

Beads of sweat the size of beans rolled down his forehead and ran down his cheeks, and because he lowered his head, those beads of sweat dripped directly from his chin to the ground, and small dark flowers bloomed on the bluestone floor.

"Yes, my subordinates obey!"

When his life was at stake, the man didn't dare to say more, touched the ground with his forehead, and answered firmly.

In the early morning of the next day, Yizhou Eight Hundred Miles Fast Horse sent a box, and Concubine Ning took a look at it in person and nodded with satisfaction.

Then she went to the dilapidated hut alone, and said nothing, except to show the contents of the box to the man who was slumped on the bed.

The man......'s eyes almost fell out of his sockets, his thin body trembled violently like a dead leaf in the autumn wind, and his throat made a gurgling sound.

"Poof~~"

In the end, the man spurted out a large mouthful of blood, his eyes went black, and he immediately passed out.

Seeing the man's reaction like this, Concubine Ning was extremely sure that she had guessed correctly. It's easier than ever.

For more than 20 years, she hated, she was aggrieved, and she calculated in every possible way...... How rich she is on the surface, how painful she is in the heart.

She was numb to the pain.

At this point, she finally let out that bad breath, and she felt as if she had come back to life.

Picking up the teapot on the square table, the tea in the pot had already been cooled, Concubine Ning checked it, well, it was quite heavy, and there should be a lot of water in it.

She walked to the bed, lifted the lid of the teapot, and with a flick of her wrist, poured all the water from the teapot onto the man's head.

The man shivered, and his fainting consciousness was awakened by the stimulation of the cold tea.

The bloodshot eyes glared at Concubine Ning fiercely like a beast, and she gritted her teeth and asked word by word, "Why?" Why are you doing this? ”

Concubine Ning casually threw the teapot aside, and with a clang, the white porcelain teapot was shattered.

She wiped her hands with a handkerchief, and then threw it away casually, "You and I know things well, why do you have to ask so many times?" ”

The man seemed to be stimulated, and roared fiercely: "Ning, why do you want to do this? He, he's innocent! ”

The corners of Concubine Ning's lips pursed a slight mockery, "Innocent? surnamed Xiao, my noble daughter from a dignified family married far away from the southwest, and I wholeheartedly want to do a good job as this princess of Annan, but what do you do to me? Do you still have the face to say 'innocent'? ”

Obviously, she is the most innocent and pitiful person!

At that time, she married into Annan with the shyness of a bride and the expectation of a new life, but as a result, her husband did not prevent her like a thief for any great cause.

and worried that the birth of a concubine would be left in the capital by the imperial court as a 'hostage', he would rather secretly have a child with a lowly native than have sex with her, the justifiable princess of Annam......

For more than 20 years, Concubine Ning has been wronged and treated poorly, and now she just wants to pay back the pain she has suffered to the 'culprit', this man who has harmed her all her life is actually embarrassed to scold her as a 'poisonous woman'? Blame her for 'killing innocents'?!

“…… You can't do that. ”

The man regained his senses a little, and shouted at the top of his voice: "Putting aside the identity of that child, just the current situation, ahem, do you know how important Yizhou is to the palace?" ”

Many people speculate that the first target of the palace is Shuixi, but in fact, the plan that the man made for Concubine Ning was to take Yizhou directly, and then rely on the favorable terrain and abundant products of Yizhou to deal with the imperial court.

According to the man's estimate, once he takes Yizhou, with the Wangfu's decades of operation in Yizhou, he will be able to spend at least three or four years with the imperial court.

In three or four years, the palace can afford it, but the court can't afford it.

The Great Qi Dynasty had a vast territory and restless neighbors on the four borders, and the imperial court simply could not concentrate all its forces to pacify a small Yizhou.

However, the palace can take Yizhou as the center, want to expand its power around, and finally take down the entire southwest.

It can be seen from this how important Yizhou is for the palace to plan the entire overall situation, otherwise he would not have sent Cao Su over!

"Important or not, what does this have to do with me?"

Concubine Ning said it so relaxedly, without the slightest regret or guilt, and listening to her tone, it seemed that the 'great cause' or something was just a thing for her to pass the boring time.

If it can be done, it is naturally a thousand good.

If you lose, it doesn't matter!

"You, you~poof~~"

The man's cynical expression towards Concubine Shangning could no longer be controlled, and he sprayed several mouthfuls of blood one after another.

Although he didn't pass out immediately, but the blackening in front of him was almost a little bit, and he might be angry to death directly.

Concubine Ning found out about this, and was very 'considerate' to make up for it, "But don't worry, the little turtle is still alive, and with his 'honest' nature, even if he fails, when the court liquidates the palace, he will be spared." ”

After all, everyone in the world knows that Xiao Rugui is a fool, and the affairs of the palace basically have nothing to do with him.

Today's saint has always advertised himself as a generous and benevolent monarch, and he shouldn't have trouble getting along with a fool, not to mention that this fool is still from the Xiao clan, and it is far more useful to keep him than to take his life.

Concubine Ning said with a bit of invitation, "Fortunately, I raised him well, even if we were condemned and executed by the imperial court, the little turtle could live well." You see, I've left you a bloodline. ”

A good child was raised by her to be a fool, and Concubine Ning is really 'well-intentioned'!

The fool has now become the only bloodline of the palace, and when the world mentions the branch of the Annan Palace, the 'fool' has become the only famous brand.

The man on the bed was the most proud, and he had always regarded Xiao Rugui as a stain on his life, but now, his bloodline actually depends on such a person to inherit, for him, it is tantamount to the greatest humiliation!

"Bang!"

The man could no longer hold on, and fell headlong on the bed, a trace of blood flowing from his closed lips, and his breathing, which was not very strong, came to an abrupt halt.

He was so angry that he died!

Concubine Ning tried his snort, and then put two fingers on the side of his neck for a while, and then raised her head and laughed: "Haha, hahaha, surnamed Xiao, this time you are 'really' dead!" He's dead! The two little you and the, one is stupid, and the other is dead! It's a shame that you think you're smart all day long, but now you're ending up like this, hahaha~~"

The laughter is very poignant, and people can't help but feel creepy when they listen to it.

Concubine Ning had already burst into tears, and her voice was already a little hoarse, but she continued to laugh wildly.

At the end of the laugh, she staggered to the ground, her eyes looked at the corpse on the simple wooden bed, and her eyes gradually became confused - the enemy was finally dead, and the 'sluts' who had disgusted her for most of her life were also cleaned up by her, but for some reason, she was not as happy as she expected, but there was an inexplicable dazedness.

The string that had been tight in her heart was loosened, which was originally a good thing, but suddenly, the breath that had always supported her also dispersed, and for a while, she didn't know what to do.

And the so-called great cause or something has lost its attraction to her!

……

"Father, oh no, saint, the palace is full of Tartars and rebels, let's hide here for a while."

The thin King Yan supported the emperor, and the father and son, under the protection of more than a dozen Praetorian Guards, staggered out of the front hall and hid in a side hall near the cold palace.

King Yan wiped the fine beads of sweat from his forehead, and gasped for a few breaths before he suggested in a low voice.

"Well, my son is tired too, sit down with me and rest for a while."

The emperor was very distressed when he saw his son's sweaty and red-faced embarrassed appearance, and hurriedly beckoned to him.

King Yan responded respectfully, and then sat down under the emperor in an orderly manner.

"Sage, it's no longer safe in the palace, those Tartars can sneak into the palace city, and it is obvious that those Praetorian Guards and Yulin Army outside can't be counted on,"

King Yan is still quite skillful in speaking, he did not say that there was a problem with the sixteen guards (such as those leaders were bought by the prince), but directly said that he couldn't count on it.

Although the meaning is similar, his statement seems more kind.

The emperor had just experienced a turmoil, and because of Kudulu's nonsense, he had a grudge against the prince, and what he wanted to see most at this moment was a loyal and affectionate person.

King Yan is like this, and he definitely tickles the emperor's itch at the moment.

Sure enough, His Majesty the Great Qi Emperor showed a pleased smile, reached out and patted the back of King Yan's hand, and sighed: "Little Liu, you are a good boy." I didn't mistake you! ”

It was not in vain that he had many arrangements for him.

The flushing faded, and King Yan's face returned to its former paleness, and even his lips were pale and almost colorless. He hooked the corners of his lips, revealing a shy smile unique to young people, and said embarrassedly: "Father, you and your mother gave me life, but because of my body, I can't repay the kindness of the two of you. Now it's so easy to have a chance, and you also let your son do something good. ”

King Yan is very good at climbing along the pole, and when he heard that the emperor called him 'my son' again, he directly changed 'sage' to 'father'.

Father and son gossiped a few words.

The commander of the Praetorian Guard, who was in charge of guarding outside, walked in, saluted, and respectfully reported: "Enlightened Sage, there are about fifty or sixty Tartars searching the palace one by one, and there are two or three hundred suspicious people patrolling back and forth. Although they wore the armor of the Praetorian Guards, they were not real Praetorian Guards. The subordinates suspect that they are rebels who took advantage of the chaos to sneak in. ”

The commander replied truthfully, thought for a while, and then stopped: "There is another point, there are only more than 20 guards now, and they can't resist those Tartars and rebels who are found. Sage, King Yan, in the humble opinion of his subordinates, it is better to retreat to the cold palace for the time being, which is more remote, and if his subordinates are not mistaken, there seems to be a road that can lead directly to the outer city. ”

The palace had already been captured, and if there were no soldiers and horses rushing to the rescue, they would have to flee from the palace.

As soon as King Yan heard this, his bloodless little face became more and more pale, and he hurriedly persuaded: "Father, we can't wait for those Tartars and rebels to find them, let's withdraw first, so we can wait for the people from the camp in the western suburbs to come to King Qin." ”

Stay in the green mountains without worrying about no firewood, the dignified Emperor Qi can't be captured by a few Tartars.

Just as a few people were talking, the noise outside was getting closer and closer, mixed with some Yi languages, and it seemed that those Tartars were really chasing after them.

But the emperor ran all the way, and he was already too tired to do it, and he also had the pride of being an emperor. On his own turf, he was chased by a few Tartars and fled in all directions, which is really embarrassing.

"Father~"

King Yan was so anxious that he almost knocked the emperor unconscious and dragged him away.

The emperor smiled suddenly and said, "Don't worry, there are more than sixteen guards in the palace......"
