Chapter 152: It turns out that this is the so-called Three Kings Rebellion
Chapter 152
"Who are you talking about?"
Wu Jue looked at Deng Si'er, a little unsure of what he meant.
Deng Si'er quietly glanced around a few times, and saw that no one noticed him, so he approached Wu Jue and said again:
"It's the 'His Royal Highness King Yue' you just said, I've heard you say for a long time, as if I know everything, I just want to ask. If you don't know, forget it. ”
Wu Jue listened to Deng Si'er's words and thought that Deng Si'er was underestimating him, he had been in the capital for more than 20 years, and he loved to make all kinds of friends so much, he still knew a little.
So Wu Jue also lowered his voice and said to Deng Si'er:
"You're talking about him, actually, I know that the news of this person is still my father's leakage when he drank wine, but then I asked, my father's old man refused to say anything."
After speaking, Wu Jue picked up the wine jug and poured his wine glass full of wine, took it and smacked it, it seemed that he was quite helpless about his father's original behavior.
"Your father?" Deng Si'er asked curiously.
Wu Jue nodded, put down the wine glass, and said:
"That's right, my father had some connections with His Royal Highness King Yue, but I wasn't born at that time, but unfortunately, I didn't see the legendary 'His Royal Highness King Yue'."
"And what else do you know? Let's talk about it. Deng Si'er looked at Wu Jue's expression and asked casually.
While asking, Deng Si'er also picked up the wine jug and poured wine for Wu Jue, looking at it, it really looked like he asked casually because of curiosity.
As for Deng Si'er's calculations, Wu Jue certainly couldn't see it.
Wu Jue didn't feel anything. As soon as Deng Si'er's voice fell, he recalled it slightly, and then said:
"The Royal Highness of King Yue you are talking about, in fact, is really a strange person. Reportedly. When the first emperor was alive, he was the most favored prince, and he was more than many times more beautiful than our saints today. ”
Wu Jue paused, and then spoke:
"Not only that, His Royal Highness King Yue worked hard to get the true inheritance of a master, and he was the most powerful one among all the princes. Because of this, he was also very prestigious in the army, although he did not often go into battle to kill the enemy himself. But his strategy and courage, at his age at the time, were really promising. ”
Wu Jue stopped and drank a glass of wine, and when the wine glass was put down, Deng Si'er hurriedly poured it for Wu Jue again.
Wu Jue continued:
But everything suddenly changed sixteen years ago. To the surprise of everyone. ”
"Huh? How do you say that? Deng Si'er looked at Wu Jue with a wine jug and asked suspiciously.
"You don't know. Sixteen years ago, a major event happened in the capital, a major event that everyone did not expect. Wu Jue said.
"Aren't you talking about the 'Three Kings Rebellion'?" Deng Si'er interjected in a low voice.
"You know all about this?" Wu Jue glanced at Deng Si'er in surprise, but he didn't expect Deng Si'er to know about the 'Three Kings Rebellion' sixteen years ago, so he asked curiously.
"Of course, I heard this from Lord Zuo and Uncle Jing." Deng Si'er said indifferently.
"Oh, I see, no wonder." Wu Jue nodded, not caring. Continuing with the previous words:
"That thing. It happened so suddenly, and even ended so quickly. In just five days, from the rebellion to the suppression of the law, it was only five days, and the three princes in charge were all killed, and the henchmen were eliminated one by one, like a storm, although it was menacing, it was only short-lived and traceless after all. ”
"The three. . . Who are they? Deng Si'er suppressed the slightest sound and turned his head to take a deep breath, the first time he heard such words, Deng Si'er's heart shook as you can imagine, Deng Si'er almost used all his strength to make himself appear calmer.
"At that time, the eldest prince Chu Ling, the third prince Chu Jing and the seventh prince Chu Fu." Wu Jue said.
Deng Si'er frowned when he heard this, and looked at Wu Jue.
Wu Jue nodded clearly and continued:
"It's normal for you to wonder why these three people would join forces to rebel, it is said that it is still an unsolved case. After all, after the rebellion, those three followed"
"Why" Deng Si'er asked again.
Wu Jue shook his head and said:
"As for the reason for the rebellion, no one knows, only that it was launched by the Seventh Prince, and the eldest prince and the third prince responded to its call and raised troops to besiege the city, but due to the short assembly time, the rebels were unstable, and some generals who surrendered before they fought, General Zuo was suppressed when the reinforcements came, and after that, it was to arrest the rebels."
"They didn't run away?" Deng Si'er couldn't figure it out and continued to ask.
Wu Jue also had deep questions about this period of history in his heart, but his knowledge was really limited, and he could only shake his head and say with Deng Si'er's puzzled expression:
"It's also weird, after the failure of the rebellion, the three kings actually fled in three ways, the eldest prince Chu Ling and the seventh prince Chu Fu died in the melee not long after, the three princes all the way, I only know that the one who pursued him was Lord Zuo's father, Zuo Yuanfeng. General Zuo. ”
"General Zuo?! How could it be him? Could it be that he," Deng Si'er immediately asked in surprise.
Wu Jue saw Deng Si'er like this, and knew that Deng Si'er was thinking of a different place, so he said:
"It's not what you think, I heard that although it was His Royal Highness King Yue, the third prince, who was pursued by General Zuo at that time, he was ordered by the emperor to arrest Chu Jing alive, but General Zuo asked King Yue to escape because he wanted to catch him alive."
"Escaped?" Deng Si'er was immediately startled, and almost dropped the wine jug that he had just held in his hand.
Wu Jue also frowned and said:
"Yes. Later, no one knew where His Royal Highness King Yue was. Not to mention, the first emperor was angry after learning about it, two princes died in a row, and one was nowhere to be found, and he was seriously ill. ”
"He's not dead?" Deng Si'er asked with some hope.
Wu Jue shook his head and said:
"I don't know this, my father hasn't said a word since he said this, no one knows whether King Yue is dead or alive. It's just that"
"But what?" Deng Si'er immediately asked.
Wu Jue was slightly puzzled when he saw Deng Si'er's eager appearance, but with Deng Si'er's usual temperament, it was reasonable to be so curious, so he didn't think much about it, and replied to Deng Si'er:
"You don't know, in the past three years of the rebellion of the three kings, the first emperor died of illness due to depression, but before the first emperor died, he ordered that no one should mention the rebellion of the three kings, and generously let the three princes be buried in the imperial tomb together. Come to think of it, King Yue is already "
Wu Jue shook his head after speaking, when he first heard his father talk about it, he felt that people like His Royal Highness King Yue ended up like that, it was too sudden and unimaginable, so those who knew His Royal Highness King Yue were still emotional
Deng Si'er finally failed to hold the wine jug in his hand, so he could only put it down as lightly as possible, looking at Chu Jing who was drinking and chatting with Zuo Yuanfeng, for a while, he had mixed feelings.
He's dead?
Is it really dead (to be continued.) )
