Chapter Forty-Six: Death Admonition
Since Jiang Li threw himself into Ling Tianxu, there have been ministers who have leaned towards the imperial faction, including Wailang, a member of the Ministry who was degraded because of King Jing. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Ling Tianxu became deaf and clear-sighted, but whenever there was any trouble, Ling Tianxu and King Wen would know about it as soon as possible.
Soon after the New Year's Festival, the people in the military department came with the news that the Yan army had invaded the territory of Qi for hundreds of miles, and the Qi army was defeated and retreated, and it would not be long before it was on the verge of Xunzhou.
Xiao Mo picked up the "Atlas of Qizhou" on the pillow, flipped to the map of the territory of Qi State and looked at it, the flames of war seemed to be burning on that paper, and if it continued like this, the Yan army would attack Xunzhou Mansion, and the war would be out of control, and the speed at which Ling Tianxu would regain his monarchy was far less than the speed of the army attacking Qi State.
In the Imperial Palace, hundreds of officials knelt and saluted: "Long live my emperor." ”
When the words fell, King Jing walked in from outside the hall and bowed: "Minister, see Your Majesty." ”
"No courtesy." Ling Tianxu said with a calm face.
When King Jing stood on the side of the palace, King Wen hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, the army has been fighting for several months, and the people are complaining, and this attack on Qi is really worth the loss." ”
"Complaining? Where do you hear the complaints? King Jing said indifferently.
King Wen glared at King Jing and said: "Conquest is a move to work the people and lose money, my Dayan finally has the foundation now, and the battle with the Qi State injured 10,000 enemies and lost 8,000 ......."
Without waiting for King Wen to finish speaking, King Jing immediately said: "Today's foundation, well-said, in this Emperor's Palace, the foundation of the Yan Kingdom will be there?" The rivers and mountains of Yan Kingdom were won by His Majesty's diligent government and love for the people and the empty talk of civil ministers governing the country? King Wen has followed the first emperor for many years, but I don't know how Xunzhou Mansion was lost? ”
"Xunzhou Mansion is ......"
"That was originally the land of my Yan Kingdom, only allowed to be snatched by the Qi Kingdom, not allowed to be recaptured by the Yan Kingdom, and the rivers and mountains were handed over, this is the way of Brother Wang's way of governing the country and assisting the monarch?" King Jing's voice became heavier, and his words were burning to ask King Wen, but his eyes never even looked at him.
"Xunzhou Mansion is just a border place, you don't have to mobilize the army for that small piece of land, 100,000 troops are pressing the border just to seize a Xunzhou Mansion, and now it is at odds with Qi State, and all countries are eyeing it, and it is not good for Dayan."
"Who said that the 100,000 army is only to capture a Xunzhou capital." King Jing said lightly.
As soon as these words came out, King Wen was angry: "Then when are you going to fight!" ”
"When will the Qi Kingdom be able to resist my Yan King Division, and when will this battle be over." King Jing also argued with King Wen, and said in a calm tone.
"Now that the Qi State has collapsed, don't you want to ......" King Wen pointed angrily at King Jing.
"Then attack Sui An!"
King Jing said this slowly and calmly, as if he had a foresight.
As Xiao Mo expected, no matter coercion or discussion, it was absolutely impossible for King Jing to withdraw his troops, and the scene was at an impasse.
Ling Tianxu didn't say a word, if he put aside his grievances for the time being and only listened to his remarks, then King Jing was a little reasonable, he was originally at the request of King Wen, and the previous dynasty forced King Jing to withdraw his troops, but now he has no reason to refute Ling Hao.
"You...... What do you have to do to withdraw your troops? King Wen was furious, trembling angrily and pointing at Ling Hao.
King Jing ignored King Wen and walked into the hall and arched his hand: "Minister, retire." ”
"Ling Hao, you're going to destroy my Dayan's foundation!" King Wen roared bitterly.
King Jing walked out of the hall without looking back.
"Yan Guo will not allow you to disturb the court!"
The back was still indifferent, ignoring it......
King Wen turned to plead with Ling Tianxu: "Your Majesty, you have something to say." ”
Ling Tianxu glanced at Xiao Mo next to the hall, the two of them knew that it was useless to talk too much on such an occasion, and arguing again would only fuel King Jing's arrogance, in fact, the advantages of this war outweighed the disadvantages for Yan Guo, even the war-weary Ling Tianxu hesitated, the only thing he was worried about was that this battle would cause chaos in the world.
Xiao Mo shook her head at him, although she was anxious, there was no way to say that King Jing was moving, Yan Guo was strong and the people were rich, and Qi Guo was vulnerable, this battle for a few years would not lose much national strength for Yan Guo, it was a business that would not lose money, it can be seen that King Jing has been in power for a long time, and he still has some ability to govern the country and level the world.
Seeing that Ling Hao was about to leave the Imperial Palace, King Wen was so angry that he crashed into the pillars in the hall.
This unexpected scene shocked the civil and military officials present: "Lord Wang! ”
Ling Tianxu hurriedly went to the hall to check on King Wen's injuries, and King Wen's head was bleeding.
King Jing heard the movement, stopped, and glanced sideways at King Wen lying on the ground slightly, his already indifferent face was covered with a layer of frost.
"Doctor, please."
King Jing gave a faint order to the guards in front of the palace and left.
Ling Tianxu picked up King Wen, and the blood made him tremble.
Xiao Mo noticed Ling Tianxu's strange appearance, and knew that it was because of the blood, so he hurriedly sent the inner supervisor to come in and help the fainting King Wen to the apse to rest, and dismissed the ministers.
A thin layer of sweat oozed from his forehead, and Xiao Mo took out a handkerchief to wipe it for him: "Are you okay?" ”
Ling Tianxu shook his head, his brows furrowed: "How could King Wen ......?"
"What's the use of him telling him to die?" Xiao Mo sighed, he knew that King Wen was dead-headed, but he never thought that he would be so pedantic and confused to such an extent.
Ling Tianxu seemed to still have palpitations about the scene just now, he broke out in a cold sweat, his face was also a little pale, and he saw the remaining blood stains on the pillar in a blink of an eye, and closed his eyes tightly.
He was afraid of blood, Xiao Mo knew, but he never thought he would be so afraid.
After the palace people cleaned up the hall, his mood gradually returned to normal.
"You...... Why are you afraid of blood? Xiao Mo frowned.
"Because ......" Ling Tianxu paused.
When Ling Tianxu mentioned this, his expression was gloomy, as if he could not recall, so Xiao Mo stopped asking, and quietly inquired about Xiao Liu when he went to visit King Wen.
It turned out that Ling Tianxu had witnessed the accidental death of his younger brother the Third Prince when he was young, and when King Ping was suffering from an emergency illness and bled to death, he also happened to see it.
The death of the third prince was an accident, at that time, several princes were playing under the city tower, and the third prince went up to the city tower and fell down accidentally, just falling next to Ling Tianxu, blood flowed all over the ground, and when he was young, he saw this scene, and some shadows accumulated in his heart.
What shocked Xiao Mo was that King Ping's emergency was that he bled to death from the seven orifices, which was not like an emergency, but like a ...... Poisoning.
After Xiao Mo asked, he learned that King Ping had been to King Jing's Mansion before the emergency, and King Ping's sudden death was related to King Jing?
Xiao Mo vaguely felt that there was some secret behind this, but it was just three years ago, and it should not be difficult to find out the truth.
When he saw King Wen again, he had already woken up, and the imperial doctor had bandaged the wound on his head.
"Why is Uncle Wang like this?" Ling Tianxu said.
"Your Majesty, the ministers are worthy of the first emperor and worthy of the ancestors."
"Uncle Wang's words are serious, I will find a way to do this again, and Uncle Wang will recuperate."
"Ling Hao is stubborn, and the minister is anxious......"
King Wen was in tears, Xiao Mo was helpless, although she still hated King Jing, but this stubbornness was obviously more suitable for King Wen.
Xiao Mo saw in a blink of an eye that the imperial physician was packing up the medicine box, if you want to investigate the affairs of King Ping, the Tai Hospital should have a pulse case to find, although she does not understand medical science, but if it is a symptom of poisoning, she can still distinguish it, and at a glance, she can know how King Ping died
