Chapter 116: The so-called emperor

Yan Xingzhou sighed softly, put the letter down, he reached out and stroked the three words of Xian Ruhua, and gradually his eyes moistened.

Seeing his demeanor, Gonggong Xun on the side lowered his head invisibly, and looked at the letter on the dragon table.

When he touched the three words of Xian Ruhua, he also sighed in his heart.

In this life, the emperor fought in the south and the north, and when he encountered difficult and bitter things, he could rise to the occasion and solve them.

It can be said that there is no obstacle that can hardly hold the emperor.

But as soon as Xian Ruhua appeared, the emperor could not cross it.

The reason why the Emperor Taishang strongly opposed Xianruhua's entry into the palace was because of this.

Love is a taboo for emperors.

Emperor Taishang once said, "The emperor's home, the love is deep, the prison is deep, the emperor is in charge of the world, and he relies on the desperate power, once the power is heavy, it is bound to be a qualified emperor." ”

Emperor Taishang has devoted his life to the powerful Yan Kingdom, and if he has no love in his heart, he will also make the emperor loveless.

The Emperor's approach is indeed too arbitrary and overbearing.

He has no father-son love for the emperor, only the love of the emperor.

Of course, the emperor has no way to take the emperor, and he is not the opponent of the emperor, after the death of the emperor, the emperor can do whatever he wants, but Xian Ruhua married Zhao Xian again.

This mistake is a lifelong mistake.

Xian Ruhua didn't forgive the emperor's ruthlessness until she died, but how did she know that the emperor was actually just a poor man who had lost his beloved woman.

Father-in-law Xun didn't dare to interject, pretending not to see anything.

Yan Xingzhou relieved his emotions, and then said hoarsely, "Xun An, pass Duan Dongli into the palace." ”

Xun An immediately sighed and went down to pass it on.

When Duan Dongli entered the imperial study, Yan Xingzhou threw Yan Chi's letter to him.

After reading it, Duan Dongli was slightly stunned and smiled, "Did the crown prince persuade the Emperor of Zhao to open his mouth and agree to marry the princess to Yan Kingdom?" ”

Yan Xingzhou said in a dull voice, "The premise is that I have to go to Zhao State first and ask for marriage." ”

Duan Dongli twisted his eyebrows and said, "This Emperor of Zhao really dares to mention it." ”

Yan Xingzhou said lightly, "What he mentioned, I Yun." ”

Duan Dongli was stunned for a moment, and immediately said, "Your Majesty, you can't leave the country now." ”

Yan Xingzhou tapped the desktop and said, "Yes, I will definitely not leave the country at this time, I called you to come, I asked you to prepare a generous gift, and send it to Zhao State first, to show the sincerity of my Yan Kingdom, and it was my reply that went with the generous gift, and I will write down when to go, so as not to think that Zhao Xian did not take him seriously." ”

Duan Dongli arched his hand, "Then the minister will go down and prepare now?" ”

Yan Xingzhou said, "Go ahead." ”

Duan Dongli went down again, preparing to send a generous gift to Zhao Guo.

Yan Xingzhou played with the letter, and after a while, he asked Xun An to prepare paper and ink, and he wrote a reply.

The reply letter was written, and the messenger was sent back to Zhao as soon as possible.

The letter arrives generously first.

When Zhao Xian got the letter, it was the day when Zhao Huaiyan and Yan Chi set off for the front line.

In the past five days in Zhao State, Yan Chi won Zhao Xian's favor with practical actions.

Zhao Xian was not so repulsive to Yan Chi, and after reading Yan Xingzhou's letter today, Yan Xingzhou agreed to come to Zhao Kingdom in person and ask Xian Ruhua for marriage, Zhao Xian saw Yan Chi more and more pleasing to the eye.

Zhao Xian was indeed jealous of Yan Xingzhou, but what made him really mind was that Xian Ruhua had not been able to see Yan Xingzhou until she died, and she probably didn't blink an eye.

And she is his queen, she doesn't look away, and Zhao Xian is also very angry.

Now that Yan Xingzhou has agreed to come over, Zhao Xian can finally let his concubine Huangquan rest in peace.

Zhao Xian closed the letter and went to the princess's mansion.

Xiang Yan Chi and Zhao Huaiyan told Yan Xingzhou about Yan Xingzhou's reply, and made it clear that Yan Xingzhou agreed to come to Zhao to propose marriage, but only after the war ended.

When Yan Chi heard this, his eyebrows were dyed and he smiled, and said, "Then we will leave immediately and settle the war first." ”

Zhao Xian said, "It is true that the war must be resolved first. ”

He looked at Zhao Huaiyan and asked, "Everything is packed?" ”

Zhao Huaiyan said, "There's nothing to clean up, I have prepared some emergency wound medicine and dry food." ”

Zhao Xian nodded, glanced up and down at Zhao Huaiyan's men's clothes, there was a sassy air in the delicate, his daughter, no matter how she dressed up, was extremely outstanding!

Zhao Xian stretched out his hand to hug Zhao Huaiyan and said, "Be careful all the way." ”

Zhao Huaiyan hugged Zhao Xian with his backhand and responded, "Dad, don't worry, my daughter will be fine!" ”

Yan Chi's eyes moved slightly, looking at the father and daughter who were about to be separated, listening to their words of concern for each other, without disturbing.

Zhao Xian didn't hold it for too long, although he was extremely reluctant to Zhao Huaiyan, but his daughter grew up, she had her own way to go, and her own world to break through, and she had to move forward in the future ups and downs.

Zhao Xian didn't know when he was going to see him when he thought of this walk, his eyes were a little red, and he wanted to cry.

Zhao Huaiyan was also very reluctant to her father, but she couldn't cry with her, otherwise, her father would be even more sad, she pretended to be relaxed and said, "Dad, you can't cry, my daughter came back from Qi to bring you a gift, what do you want?" ”

Zhao Xian stretched his hand and rubbed his eyes, glaring at her angrily, "Dad didn't cry." ”

Zhao Huaiyan smiled.

Zhao Xian said, "I want the best gift." ”

Zhao Huaiyan tilted his neck and thought for a while, and said, "What is the best gift?" ”

Zhao Xian sighed, raised his hand and patted her little head, "For Dad, the best gift is that you are safe and sound, if you really want to bring it, then bring the first branch on your way to block your sight, and break one back to Dad." ”

Zhao Huaiyan didn't want to cry, but when she heard Zhao Xian say this, her eyes moistened all of a sudden.

Yan Chi glanced at her and wanted to hug her over.

But he didn't move.

He admired Zhao Xian's talent very much, and was very pleased with his care for Zhao Huaiyan.

He really cared about Zhao Huaiyan, so he wanted a branch that was the first to block her sight on the way out.

He didn't want branches, he wanted her peace.

Zhao Huaiyan said softly, "Hmm! ”

Zhao Xian patted her on the shoulder, held her emotions and said, "Let's go." ”

He didn't go out of the city to see them off, but he stood there and watched them leave.

Gonggong Zhao whispered, "The emperor doesn't send the princess?" ”

Zhao Xian shook his head, "I can't bear it, the last time I sent her out of the palace, I was sad for a long time, and it was very uncomfortable to watch her leave." ”

As he spoke, he turned around and entered the study, "I'd better deal with the twists and turns, I don't see her leaving, I feel like she's still around." ”

Gonggong Zhao sighed and thought to himself, the princess just went out to travel this time, and she came back after the trip, this is a going and returning, you are so reluctant, when Princess Ming'er gets married, what are you going to do?

Father-in-law Zhao thought like this in private, but he didn't dare to say a word, and followed into the imperial study.

Waiting for Zhao Huaiyan and Yan Chi to leave the palace of Zhao State, the carriage drove all the way to the border, Zhao Huaiyan lifted the curtain and looked back in the direction of the palace, showing a thick reluctance on his face.

Yan Chi gently hugged her and said in a low voice, "I'll be back." ”

Zhao Huaiyan snuggled in his arms, and his mood was very low, "I have never left my father since I was a child. ”

Yan Chi kissed her forehead, "I left last time, you have to get used to it." ”

Zhao Huaiyan knows, but it's one thing to know, and it's another thing to really accept and get used to it.

Fortunately, she is a person who knows exactly what she wants to do.

She has to go through war and become a true emperor.

This is to live up to the love of her father, the love of the people of Zhao State, and the society of the country.

Zhao Huaiyan quickly calmed down the depressed mood due to leaving, slowly withdrew from Yan Chi's arms, straightened his sleeves, and sat on the couch on the other side.

Yan Chi saw that she had returned to her normal state, so she said something serious to her.

These are all about the current war on the side of the Qi country.

After the two kings of Chen detained Emperor Chen, held Prime Minister Pei Lianfu hostage, and Yuan Xingling's garrison was surrounded by the counter-troops sent by Chen Ji Chen Li, the war once fell into a stalemate.

The 200,000 Yan State army led by Yuan Xing is not so easy to deal with, Chen Guo is weak, and the soldiers are not strong, even if Chen Ji and Chen Dong raise troops privately, and Qin Zhi assists them, they have to weigh and weigh if they want to resist the Yan State army.

In addition to the 200,000 troops of Yan State, there were another 200,000 troops sent by Emperor Chen to reinforce the border garrison.

In this way, the border garrison was 400,000 troops.

The two brothers Chen Ji and Chen Li sent up to 200,000 troops.

There was a huge disparity in troops, although the unexpected sneak attack temporarily occupied the peak, but once the battle began, the soldiers sent by Chen Ji and Chen Li were still unable to resist it quickly.

Up to now, Yuanxing has sent four letters.

Yan Chi was in Holy Snow City before, and two letters were in the hands of Yan Xingzhou.

The next two letters all went into Yan Chi's hands.

Although Yan Chi was not in the station, he was clear about the situation in the station.

He Xuan and Zeng Yan, who invaded the territory of Qi State, also sent three letters, one in Yan Xingzhou and the other two in Yan Chi.

The situation between He Xuan and Zeng Yan was not very good.

These two people overcame obstacles all the way, and saw that the general trend was about to come to fruition, but they encountered strong obstacles from Jiang Biao and Xiongzhan, the two major generals of Qi, in Hongmen and Huaizhou, the two major cities of Qi.

The war is glued.

Two places, two sides of the people, engaged in dozens of rounds, no one can take the other, so a tug-of-war is formed.

Although it is a tug-of-war, because it is located in the Qi country, it will be extremely unfavorable to the Yan country for a long time.

What He Xuan and Zeng Yan mentioned in their letters is nothing more than this concern.

Regarding Zhu Xuanguang's side, there has been no letter in hand.

Yan Chi was very worried about Zhu Xuanguang's situation.

He frowned slightly, thought for a moment and said, "The crisis of the border garrison has been resolved, Chen Ji and Chen Li, the two brothers, withdrew the remaining soldiers from the garrison, and as soon as these soldiers left the garrison, they went straight to the imperial city of Chen State, probably because the soldiers led by Ji Mogui and the Peace Shuzheng have arrived in Chen State, and Chen Ji and Chen Li want to outflank them." ”

Zhao Huaiyan listened and said lightly, "It's not a mindless person, but if they evacuate, Yuanxing shouldn't let them go so easily." ”

Yan Chi chuckled, "Yes, so, at this moment, these soldiers are besieged halfway, let's go and have a good time." ”

Zhao Huaiyan raised his eyebrows, "Do you want to go to Chen Guo first?" ”

Yan Chi said, "Well, first solve the danger of Chen Guo, and when the danger of Chen Guo is lifted, we can pull out the camp." He Xuan and Zeng Yan's attack was blocked, and troops were temporarily sent from Yan State, which was too far away, in order to prevent Qin from taking advantage of Yan State's sneak attack, the army left by Yan State could not move, so it was necessary to allocate 200,000 troops from the station, plus 200,000 troops from Chen State to relieve the siege, if Chen Guo's danger was not lifted, it would be very dangerous to pull out the camp, which was equivalent to exposing the rear to the enemy, so it was necessary to go to Chen State first. ”

Zhao Huaiyan thought so, nodded and said, "Okay, let's go to Chen Guo first." ”

The carriage has not yet driven out of the land of Zhao State, and the two of them did not set a route before departure, but at this time the route was set, Yan Chi confessed to Min San, and Min San got the order, and after leaving Zhao State, he drove in the direction of Chen State.

At this moment, Chen Guo is in turmoil.

Emperor Chen and Pei Lianfu were imprisoned, and the palace of Chen Guo was occupied by Chen Ji and Chen Li.

Emperor Chen was cowardly, grabbed Pei Lianfu's hand, and said to him with a pale face, "Pei Xiang, will they kill us?" ”

Pei Lianfu glanced at him lightly, and said comfortingly and encouraged, "Your Majesty, don't be afraid, if you really want to die, the minister will accompany you." ”

Emperor Chen's eyes turned red at the moment, "Why did the two imperial brothers want to kill me?" ”

Pei Lianfu said, "Isn't this normal? If they want to be the emperor, they are bound to oppose you, they didn't dare to do it before, they didn't have the ability or the opportunity, if today's time and place are favorable, and all aspects have caught up, they will naturally not endure it anymore. ”

"But the emperor can rest assured, I, Chen Guo, have served Yan Guo as the master, and now I have provided 200,000 troops for Yan to attack Qi, Yan Guo will not sit idly by, if it is not for these 200,000 troops to leave the country, the king of Xiangbei and the king of Huainan will not be able to take advantage of the situation, in the final analysis, this is also related to Yan country."

When Emperor Chen heard this, he tightened Pei Lianfu's sleeve and said with a look of self-reproach, "Is it that I did something wrong and shouldn't abandon Qi Fuyan?" ”

Pei Lianfu said softly, "If you really make the wrong choice, it is not the emperor's business, it is the minister's failure to do a good job." ”

Emperor Chen said, "No, no, no, the prime minister is doing a good job, it must be my reason." ”

Pei Lianfu listened to Emperor Chen defend him like this, and his expressionless face slowly showed a trace of relief, he spoke seriously, and said to Emperor Chen like his own child, "Don't worry, the emperor is not a blessing or a curse, it is a disaster that cannot be avoided, let's just sit here and wait." ”

Emperor Chen nodded, as long as Pei Lianfu was there, he didn't feel panicked anywhere.

When Pei Lianfu said this, Emperor Chen calmed down and waited.

Chen Ji, who had occupied the palace, and Chen Li were discussing whether to kill Emperor Chen.

Chen Ji frowned and said, "Can you do it?" ”

Chen Li said coldly, "It's all this time, if you can't do it, you have to do it, if he doesn't die, then the two of us are dead, and if you commit the next crime, you will be beheaded!" ”

Chen Ji closed his eyes, he also knew that now the arrow was on the string, if he didn't send it, he would turn around and hurt himself, he said ruthlessly, "Then kill them all, and leave no one." ”

Chen Li was stunned for a moment, and suddenly understood what Chen Ji meant by not leaving a single one, and then gave him a thumbs up, "It's still the eldest brother who is powerful, make a decision immediately, okay, I'll send someone to slaughter the harem, including the prince!" ”

Soon, the harem was full of ghosts and wolves.

Bloody everywhere.

While Chen Ji and Chen Li were carrying out the massacre, Ji Mogui and Heping Shuzheng got in touch with Nanqiu Han.

Ji Mogui and Heping Shuzheng were besieged by Chen Ji and Chen Li's soldiers who returned from the border garrison, but in the blink of an eye, Chen Guoda's general Luo Ye led Chen soldiers to pursue and surround this rebel army.

Yuan Xing was stationed at the border steadily, and the 200,000 troops of Yan State were looking at the rear of Qi State.

Ji Mogui wrote to Nanqiu Han, informing him that the periphery had been resolved, and that they were now leading troops into the city, and asked him to find a way to open the city gates.

After reading the letter, Nanqiu Han called Mingling and said to him, "Dad is going to take some soldiers out, now Pei Xiang is not here, the entire Pei Mansion is besieged, and the lives of the people in the mansion are in danger at any time, Ziyan has returned to the country and is not here, then, the Nanfu guards I brought are at your disposal, you have to protect the people in the mansion, protect your mother, and your wife." ”

Mingling asked, "What is Dad going out for?" ”

Nanqiu Han said, "The army of the Yan Kingdom has arrived in the Chen Kingdom, and my father will help them open the city gate." ”

When Mingling heard this, he was shocked and said, "Now that the city gate of Chen Guo is impregnable by the soldiers sent by Chen Ji and Chen Li, the city gate is blocked, and it is difficult for ordinary people to get closer, how can my father open the city gate?" ”

Nanqiu said coldly, "If you can't, you have to be able to." ”

Mingling was worried, "It's not right, my son can't let you go." ”

Nanqiu Han glanced at him, "Dad will be fine, Dad has been fighting for many years, if he can't even open the gate of Chen Guoguo, then Dad will be worthy of the prince's love and the emperor's love, there is no need to say more, Dad has made up his mind, you just have to take care of everything in Pei Mansion, don't let the villains hurt the lives of the people in the mansion!" ”

Mingling took a step forward and said eagerly, "Dad! ”

Nanqiu Han stretched out his hand to interrupt him, "You are not allowed to mention this matter to your mother and Zinati." ”

Mingling pursed his lips, "I don't say that they will ask too." ”

Nanqiu said coldly, "You can say it when you ask." ”

Mingling had no choice but to watch Nanqiu Han leave in front of him.

Nanqiu Han didn't immediately take someone to open the city gate after leaving the study, this is broad daylight, and going will only startle the snake, and the inside and outside of the house gate are full of soldiers, and it is completely impossible to get out.

If he leaves alone, it will still be easy.

But he wanted to open the city gate, and he couldn't do it on his own, so he had to bring the hidden guards that Yan Chi sent to him.

Nanqiu Han went to see Pei Fangqiao.

Pei Fangqiao recuperated for a few days, but her health was still not very good, thinking that her brother's life and death were unknown, Chen Guo was in chaos, Pei Mansion was hanging on the tip of the knife, and she would die at any time, and her mood had not been able to get better.

Qiu Yi and Qiu Nong waited for her, although they persuaded her every day, they still couldn't make her mood relax.

Recuperation is the most taboo mood depression.

Moreover, because Pei's mansion was surrounded, the doctors outside and Lang Zhong couldn't get in, and the person who gave Pei Fang George's illness was a half-hung man in the house, and his body recovered slowly.

When Nanqiu Han came in, he heard Qiu Yi say, "Madam, can I help you get out of bed and take a walk?" ”

Pei Fangqiao said weakly, "I don't want to leave, has my eldest brother heard from me?" ”

Autumn Yi shook her head.

Pei Fangqiao cried all of a sudden.

Nanqiu Han frowned, stepped in, Qiu Yi and Qiu Nong were about to get up and salute, and were invited out of the door by a gesture from him.

Waiting for the door to close, Nanqiu Han stepped on the side, sat on the edge of the bed, and looked down at Pei Fangqiao, "Big brother will be fine, Yan Guo has already come with soldiers, and he has attacked the territory of Chen State at this moment." ”

When Pei Fangqiao heard this, he stretched out his hand and grabbed him, struggled to sit up, with tears and smiles in his eyes, and asked excitedly, "Really?" ”

Nanqiu Han stretched out his hand to wrap his arms around her waist, patted her on the shoulder, and said, "Really, in order to let the Yan army enter the city as soon as possible, I want to lead the troops to blend into the Chen army and open the city gate." ”

Pei Fangqiao was shocked and looked at him dumbfounded, "You want to disguise yourself as a soldier of Chen Guo and open the city gate?" ”

Nanqiu Han said, "Hmm! ”

Pei Fangqiao shook his head, "No, it's too dangerous!" ”

Nanqiu Han touched her face, "Qiao'er, this is the only way to rescue the eldest brother and Emperor Chen as soon as possible." ”

Pei Fangqiao muttered, "The soldiers of the Yan Kingdom have always been brave, they can easily attack without you opening the city gate, why do you want to take this risk?" ”

Why?

Nanqiu Han thought that if only Chen Ji and Chen Li's soldiers were guarding the city gate, of course he was not worried that the soldiers of the Yan Kingdom would not be able to attack for a long time.

But I'm afraid, the people guarding the city gate and the secret guards of the Qin State!

Nanqiu Han expected that it was right, at this time in the Chen Kingdom, the place of the city gate was the most important, so how could Qin Zhi rest assured that only the weak soldiers and weak generals of the Chen State would defend it?

Long before Guangde left Yan State, Qin Zhi issued a secret order, telling the twelve Jingwei of Qin State to go to Chen quickly, and the twelve Jingwei did not have to meddle in the affairs of Chen State, but they must guard the city gate of Chen State.

Qin Zhi expected that such a big thing would happen in Chen Guo, and it was impossible for Yan Guo not to send troops to solve it.

Yan Guo's soldiers, Chen Guo can't stop them.

Then, Chen Guo couldn't stop it, so he asked the twelve Jingwei of Qin State to block it.

The twelve elite guards of the Qin State were loyal to the imperial family, loyal to the emperor, and loyal to him, the crown prince.

And after Qin Yi's death, the ghost step was inherited to Qin Zhi, and Qin Zhi passed on the ghost step to the twelve Jingwei in order to strengthen the combat power of the Qin State.

The ability of the ghost step seems to be just a monotonous martial art, but in fact, it is very terrifying to use on the battlefield.

A long time ago, the twelve Jingwei of the Qin State were only representatives of the Imperial Forbidden Army.

Later, under Qin Zhi's training, these twelve Jingwei, who had learned the ghost steps, became omnipotent warriors!

There are the twelve elite guards of the Qin State blocking the gate of the Chen State, and it is difficult for the army of the Yan State to enter.

As long as the army of Yan State is blocked from the gate of Chen Guo, everything in Chen Guo will be led by Chen Ji and Chen Li, and when the dust settles and the general trend is irreversible, the city gate will be opened again, and Chen Guo will change the emperor and the master.

If the Yan State sends troops into it at this time, the Qin State can completely send troops to suppress it with a legitimate reason!

Therefore, the city gate here has become the most important place.

Qin Zhi's abacus played very well, and he should have been able to succeed.

But alas, fate is such a coincidence.

Yan Chi took Zhao Huaiyan to Pengji Guangzhou, and he took Qin Shuang to Pengji Guangzhou, because of Pengji Guangzhou's changes, he stayed for two more days, and missed the opportunity for Yan Chi and Zhao Huaiyan to enter the Chen State in one step, although he still stayed in front, Yan Chi and Zhao Huaiyan were behind, but without exception, they failed to enter the imperial capital of Chen.

On the periphery, I met.

And the arrival of Yan Chi and Zhao Huaiyan is destined to be destroyed no matter how indestructible it is.

The battle was in full swing, and under the smoke, two carriages stopped one after the other.

Qin Zhi propped up the window on his right hand with one hand, Yan Chi propped up on the window on his left hand with one hand, the carriage stopped at a distance of two meters, and in mid-air, the eyes of the two men met.

Qin Zhi stroked his forehead, "How can I meet you anywhere, Princess Zhao?" ”

Yan Chi said, "It's all about the current situation, you are still in the mood to care about others, think about your own situation." ”

Qin Zhi said, "I didn't kill people and set fires, second, I didn't help the abuse, third, I didn't rob the house, and fourth, I didn't rob the people's daughters, what do I have to worry about myself, I'm just worried about the princess, you won't bring her here, right?" ”

Yan Chi sneered, not letting Zhao Huaiyan show up at all.

Qin Zhi said, "It's in the carriage, right?" Then I'll go over and say hello, although I think that a beautiful woman as delicate as a princess should be pampered and protected in the palace, but if you have to bring her to the battlefield, I can't pretend not to see it, it's too unreasonable. ”

As he spoke, he pulled his arms and lifted up his trousers to get out of the carriage.

Qin Shuang grabbed him, "Brother, how can she have such a long face!" ”

Qin Zhi smiled, "Do you have a long face?" ”

Scold!

Did he go to give Zhao Huaiyan a long face?

He's going to ......
