"You don't have to intercede for him, he's to blame, ahem..."

The Emperor of Northern Qi was very angry at the moment.

However, under his anger, he suddenly felt even more tightness in his chest.

There is even a feeling of being out of breath.

The Emperor of Northern Qi had a somewhat old face, and suddenly turned red.

"Father, you ......"

Gao Yan secretly felt that something was wrong in his heart, and immediately expressed concern, "Are you okay?" ”

"I'm fine..."

The Emperor of Northern Qi waved his hand, looking disappreciative, although he said this, he was no longer able to stand still, and then fell to his seat with a bang.

Gao Yan once again thought in his heart, what kind of medicine did Wei Wuji use?

How could it be that even the imperial doctor couldn't find out!

Gao Yan immediately went up to support the Emperor of Northern Qi, and at the same time shouted outside: "Someone! Tell the Imperial Doctor! ”

The Emperor of Northern Qi looked at him with a blank look, and after coughing a few times, he suddenly looked at Gao Yan: "Yan'er, you won't be like your uncle Wang, right?" ”

"How dare you?" Gao Yan was shocked.

"Okay."

The Emperor of Northern Qi glanced at Gao Yan, and then said with relief, "You are the prince of Northern Qi, and after my funeral, the throne will naturally be yours." That's why I trust you. From now on, you will be in command of the Imperial Guards. ”

Gao Yan was ecstatic in his heart, but he didn't show it, but pretended to be puzzled and asked, "Father, what about Uncle Wang?" ”

"Don't mention him again!"

At the mention of this person's name, the Emperor of Northern Qi almost roared and roared, and he gasped unevenly, and then he said: "I let you command the Imperial Forest Army, and you are the commander..."

"Yes."

Gao Yan immediately responded.

Soon.

More than a dozen imperial physicians came to examine the emperor's body.

Strangely, they couldn't check anything, only to say that they had an occasional chill.

Gao Yan left with doubts.

……

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, did your father give you the Imperial Forest Army?"

Seeing Gao Yan coming to the courtyard, Wei Wuji asked.

"Yes."

Gao Yan bowed and said loudly: "Brother Wei is really a good method, not only did my father get sick unknowingly, but even the imperial doctor couldn't find out. It also made my Uncle Wang sorghum lose his favor and be thrown into prison. ”

"Haha..."

Wei Wuji pretended to laugh and said, "It's just a trivial matter... Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, you don't doubt me, do you? I didn't bring a single soldier with me, and my army is still in the territory of Chu State, so I won't pose a threat to you. ”

"I'm doing this all for you, for the Northern Qi State and the Chu State to form an alliance and keep our two countries peaceful for eternity."

"I know." Gao Yan glared at Wei Wuji with some dissatisfaction, his eyes a little fierce.

"Now that you know, don't look at me like that again."

Wei Wuji shook his head, "I've already told you more than once that your father is a roadblock, he must die, and you have already agreed, so why hesitate and relent?" Is this what a king of a nation should think? ”

"That's what Brother Wei said!"

After pondering for a moment, Gao Yan nodded, "I'll go back to the school field and encircle the Royal Forest Army." After the death of his father, the queen succeeded to the throne. If anyone dares to make trouble, I will lead the Imperial Forest Army and forcibly succeed to the throne. ”

"That's very good, go ahead." Wei Wuji smiled and waved.

"Say goodbye below."

Gao Yan gave up his hand and left immediately.

Night.

Wei Wuji called Li Bai and Yan Yun Eighteen Horsemen and held a small meeting in the house.

"I have already done my hands and feet in the decoction of the Emperor of Northern Qi, and in less than ten days, he will surely die. No one can save him. Ten days later, Gao Yan will definitely be able to succeed to the throne. It's time for us to return to Chu. Wei Wuji said.

"Lord, Gao Yan hasn't succeeded to the throne yet, isn't it...... Wait? Li Bai asked.

"What are you waiting for?"

Wei Wuji chuckled, "I've already helped him to this level, if he can't inherit the throne yet, what's the use of me supporting him?" How can it become a strong reinforcement for my Chu State? ”

"Besides, don't look at him as generous to others, but in fact, he is lenient on the outside and jealous on the inside, and he is very suspicious."

"What are we going to do if he attacks us after he succeeds to the throne?"

After a pause, Wei Wuji said again, "Let's go back to Chu State earlier and handle our affairs." Don't forget, Wancheng and Fancheng are still being attacked by Long Xu, and the situation is very critical. ”

"Yes..."

The crowd seemed to have an understanding in response.

Taking advantage of the poor vision at night, Wei Wuji took Li Bai and Yan Yun's eighteen horsemen to quietly touch the northern city, killed more than a dozen defenders there, and climbed down the city tower.

After that, they rode fast horses and went straight to the state of Chu.

For a few days.

The Emperor of the Northern Qi Dynasty died.

Gao Yan took control of the imperial city with the Imperial Forest Army, and then successfully ascended the throne.

During this period, Sun Jin and Hu Wushuang helped him a lot.

It's a pity.

Sun Jin bet on the wrong treasure this time.

He mistakenly thought that Gao Yan valued him and would let him lead the army to fight, but he was acting before.

When Gao Yan ascended to the throne, the first thing he did was to take down Sun Jin and Hu Wushuang, lock them up with iron chains, and put them in prison.

After that, he sent someone to inform Wei Wuji of the news.

Wan Chengzhong.

Wei Wuji received a message from Gao Yan, and the stone in his heart was finally put down: "Sun Jin and Hu Wushuang have both been taken, and Gao Yan, the newly succeeded emperor of the Northern Qi Kingdom, is about to send someone to negotiate peace." We don't have to fight with the Northern Qi State anymore. ”

In addition to Xu Chu, there were also Gao Shun and Wang Ping standing in front of Wei Wuji.

They have just arrived at the border and have not yet entered the war.

Gao Shun said: "Back to the lord, the Northern Qi general Long Xu is still outside the city, and he was desperately attacking the city just now!" ”

"If we don't resist, I'm afraid we'll suffer."

"I intend to rush out of the city, defeat his army, and let the newly succeeded Northern Qi Emperor see that we are not afraid of him, but a gift to him!"

"Yes, my lord, our army has traveled hundreds of miles, is it just here to be an ornament?" Wang Ping was dissatisfied.

"Kill 1,000 enemies and lose 800 yourself, I have already agreed with the Emperor of Northern Qi that after he ascends the throne, he will negotiate peace with my Chu State. If you can avoid fighting, why let the soldiers take risks? Wei Wuji said.

"What the lord said is very true."

Li Bai said: "The lord has talked to Gao Yan about peace before, and if he sends troops now and inflicts heavy losses on the army of the Northern Qi State, it will inevitably anger him." When the time comes, the matter of peace will come to an end. ”

"The State of Chu and the State of Northern Qi will go to war in an all-out way, and the lives of the people will be ruined, so why bother?"

"Do you hear that?" Wei Wuji glanced at Xu Chu, Wang Ping, and Gao Shun.

All three of them replied, "Yes..."

Garrisoned in Wancheng for three days.

Long Xu came to commit many times.

The generals endured again and again, and did not care about him.

Wei Wuji is also not as knowledgeable as Long Xu.

But on the evening of the third day, Long Xu actually led thousands of iron cavalry to the outskirts of the city, kidnapped the people there, and used the people as hostages to force the garrison in Wancheng to go out of the city to fight.

"Too much deception!"

Rao is Wei Wuji's temper is good, and he can't help it.

As a horse of the Chu State and a general of the expedition to the north, he also has a heavy army in his hands and has the responsibility to protect the people.

Now, Long Xu dared to attack the people, and he absolutely couldn't tolerate it.

Even if Gao Yan is here, even if the Chu State and the Northern Qi State have formed an alliance, they can't joke with the lives of the people.

"Xu Chu."

"The end will be." Xu Chu is out of the ranks.

Wei Wuji said: "Tomorrow morning, the Northern Qi army will go outside the city." I command you to lead the Black Armor Army, as the vanguard, to charge the enemy camp. Be sure to capture Long Xu alive. ”

"The last will obey."

"Wang Ping, Gao Shun. The two of you mobilized the Wudang Flying Army, the trapped camp, and the elite of the 50,000 infantry army in the city, followed behind the Black Armor Army, and helped Xu Chu. Wei Wuji continued.

"Order."

The two should go down.

This is all the current military strength of Wancheng.

It is also all the elite of the Chu State.
