Even if Qi Guo made complete preparations, he still couldn't stop the eyes of those who had a heart.

I don't know who released the rumor, saying that the Qi State wanted to send the Baoding of the Yan State to Linzi, and even the person from Zizhi would be sent to the Qi State. Such news is like a drop of water falling into the middle of a lake, setting off huge ripples. Many Yan people heard about this and took a look at it, so within Jidu, the Qi people took advantage of the night to send Yan Guobaoding to Linzi, and it was exposed. Even when the Qi army carried it, when it was moved, what kind of tools were used, what kind of car it used, everything was detailed, and there was a nose and an eye.

Some people also said that even when they saw the crown prince Ji Ping also broke into the Ming Hall, it should have been him who led the Qi people in, otherwise how could the Qi people find the Ming Hall so quickly and move them away so quickly? Besides, didn't he bring these soldiers of the Qi Kingdom?

Such news is spreading more and more, and all kinds of outrageous things are becoming more and more mysterious, but what is very certain is that Gongzi Ji Ping broke into the Ming Hall of Yan Country with the people of Qi and moved away the seven treasures that symbolized the national fortune of Yan Kingdom, in order to please the people of Qi and make him the king of Yan Kingdom!

When the former ministers of the Yan Kingdom heard about this, they also went to the crown prince Ji Ping to ask if this matter was true, but no matter how they looked for it, they couldn't find him personally, and many ministers suggested going to Mingtang to see if the legend was true, but before they got close to Mingtang, they were stopped outside by the soldiers of Qi State, and they couldn't even get close.

This series of accidents made all the ministers believe in this matter, believing that the Baoding of Yan State had been transported to Linzi by the people of Qi State, and Ji Ping was an accomplice! They couldn't find Ji Ping, so they went straight to Kuang Zhang's camp and insisted on asking for an explanation. And Kuang Zhang didn't see them at all, so he asked the soldiers to tell him that he had gone out of the city to prepare for war, and if he didn't leave, he would be directly executed for disturbing the morale of the army.

These ministers of the Yan Kingdom, although there are also some loyal people, but most of them just go with the flow, they can accept Zizhi as the king of Yan, and naturally they can also accept others as the king of Yan and become other people's courtiers. It is not easy for people to live a lifetime, so why take it so seriously? After a while, except for one or two old ministers of Yan Guo who were still insisting there, the rest of the people were scattered, and after a while, even those who insisted shook their heads helplessly and left there. The clans of the Yan Kingdom were all deprived of their identities in the hands of Zizhi and became slaves, and at this moment, no one appeared to help the Yan Kingdom. At the beginning, Yan Wang's idea came true, but he ushered in an embarrassing victory, which has to be said to be a huge irony.

"All gone?" Kuang Zhang didn't raise his head, looking at the marching map in front of him. The matter of Jidu has been almost dealt with, as long as it is stationed for a few more days and leaves enough troops, it will be enough to deal with it. The next thing to face is the city quilt entrenched in Xiadu. Before, the sub-period attacked this place for nearly a year, but it was unsuccessful, and it was more cautious to attack by yourself, so as not to repeat the mistakes of the sub-period. And at this moment, in the lower capital city, there are not only the previous city by the army, but also Qin Kai, who saw that there was no hope of rescuing the thistle, and took refuge in the city. In this way, the Yan army in Xiadu will reach 40,000 people, and with the strong city defense of Xiadu, it is really not easy to break through.

However, the soldiers are not expensive, even if they have hoarded a huge amount of grain and grass, they have already consumed a lot of money after being eaten by the soldiers in the city, and now there are 30,000 more people from Qin Kai, I am afraid that it will not be able to support it for long. Although it is not easy to attack the capital at this time, it is easier to win by besieging them for a few days and letting them run out of food on their own.

"They all left, the general expected it well, none of these ministers, who dared to rush into the camp, all scolded outside and left."

"Hmph, Minister!" Kuang Zhang sneered and shook his head, "It is said that in the land of Yan Zhao, there are many generous and tragic people, whether it is a market ranger or an ordinary person, they are all heroic. I thought that there were really one or two people who dared to rush into the barracks and question me, but now it seems that it is not enough. A certain high has seen them! Speaking of this, I suddenly thought of the crown prince Ji Ping, the man who wanted to fight with him when he ordered to move Baoding, no matter what, he can be regarded as the last one.

Just when he was about to put aside these troublesome things and concentrate on studying the enemy's strategy, he heard a burst of eager footsteps outside the door, his slender eyebrows furrowed, a heroic spirit swept away, raised his head and looked out of the door, could it be that something happened again? .

Ji Hao closed the door and checked the deadbolt again to make sure there was no problem. He turned and walked to the center of the main hall, where there was a tall table. And on top of a few cases, a white silk hung there alone, waiting for a final destination. And a few not far away, a woman lay on the desk, crying tears in her eyes.

Ji Hao walked slowly to the woman's side, stroked her back, and said reluctantly: "If so, then you will embarrass the queen." ”

"Since the king knows that the child is so embarrassed, why should he let the child live alone? Wouldn't it be better for you and me to go on the road together? Speaking of this, the tears could not be stopped.

After the Qi army invaded Jidu, the soldiers of the Qi State took this courtyard into custody, and did not say that they would kill the king of Yan, nor let him be reinstated, but only put him under house arrest. Ji Hao has long known that before the Yan State is pacified, the people of the Qi State will never let themselves die, otherwise the Qi State will nakedly capture the Yan State, and it will definitely cause the people of the Yan State to resist, and the slogan of helping the Yan State to quell the rebellion has become a dead letter. It is because of itself that it still has the value of existence.

After Ji Ping left, Ji Hao reversed his previous leisurely life, but was worried all day long, and his soul was not guarded. It was as if something big was going to happen. The Qi people guarded him very tightly, except for three meals a day, he couldn't see anyone at all, even the soldiers who put him under house arrest didn't talk to him.

At noon, Ji Hao looked at the food in front of him without interest. The people of Qi did not treat him badly in this regard, not only the meat sauce made from the very expensive beef on weekdays, which is called 醣; There is also rice made from rice. may know that Ji Hao has been in a bad mood recently, and I hope it can go to bed early, and I have prepared some wine. Speaking of which, even if these meals are placed before, Ji Hao may not enjoy them every day, and the people of Qi are in a good mood, lest he not live long, so he is very well prepared. Seeing that Ji Hao was still not ready to eat it, the queen persuaded her bitterly, so that he was ready to decide to eat a little.

He washed his hands, picked up some rice with one hand, and placed the other hand underneath to continue. When Zhao Yong first came to Zhao Kingdom, the most unaccustomed thing was to eat pilaf, and in addition to washing his hands, he didn't even have a pair of gloves. Everyone was willing to eat, but he couldn't swallow it, but he was disgusted for several days. What surprised him the most was that there were actually chopsticks at this time, but the chopsticks could only hold vegetables, and the rice could not be put into a utensil to eat. Regardless of whether Zhao Yongxi is used to it or not, Ji Hao has been eating in this way for a lifetime, so naturally he doesn't think about any hygiene issues, so when he puts the rice in his mouth and chews it twice, he doesn't have time to taste it, and he is choked by something.

He frowned, and spat the thing on a few cases, and it turned out to be a small cylinder. Ji Hao was very puzzled, picked it up and looked at it for a while, and found that this small cylinder was hollow, and there were still things in it. He inserted chopsticks into it, and what came out was a small piece of silk book. He continued to open the silk book, only to see that it was written: Baoding has entered the Qi capital.

Seeing this, he immediately understood the meaning, opened the door in a panic, and rushed to the door, he wanted to take a look, to see if what was said in the silk book was true. However, how could the Qi army guarding the door let him leave here, regardless of the fact that he was once the king of Yan Kingdom, and he was stopped from letting him run, Ji Hao shouted and roared weakly, but was dragged back to the house by the soldiers of Qi State.

I'm tired of shouting, and my voice is hoarse. He finally knew how wrong he had been, if he hadn't been stupid, I'm afraid there would have been no such series of accidents, and the treasure of Yan Kingdom would not have fallen into the hands of Qi State like this. Ji Xu, Ji Xu, it's damned, what face do you still have to live in this world. Hurry up and die, only death can be liberated!

"Don't be sad for the queen, the widow has made a big mistake, and she can only die if she has the face to live. However, the queen wants to live, and my Yan Kingdom has had this disaster since the ancestors divided it, but it has also been extended. This is only a temporary deterrent. The widow is still waiting for you, and the widow will be buried. ”

The queen nodded sadly, at this moment, she had no other choice. I could only watch Ji Xu, trembling over to a few cases, and sticking his head into the white silk that had been made. At this moment, as long as he kicked the few cases under his feet, he could leave this world peacefully.

"Remember, Queen. After the widow dies, don't carry it into the Ming Hall, just put the corpse on the square, I want the people of Yan to remember that it is the people of Qi who forced the widow to death! This hatred and hatred are not shared! If there is still a hot-blooded son in Yan Kingdom, after he is revived, he will lead Qunlun and set foot on Linzi, so that he can vent the hatred in my heart! Ji Xu, you can't be in peace in life, and when you die, you have to let Qi be cursed by ghosts and gods! Widow, go! As he spoke, he exerted his feet, and the tall cases instantly fell behind him, leaving only a hanging figure, struggling in the white silk, and the queen hurriedly stepped forward, wanting to help him break free, but he was thin and weak, how could he help? I saw Ji Xu's corpse struggling on the white silk for a while, and there was no movement anymore.

The queen couldn't bear it anymore at the moment, and cried out loudly for Ji Xu's name. The soldiers of Qi outside the hall didn't pay much attention to it, but when they saw the queen crying, they wanted to scold her. But I saw that above the main hall, among the white silk, the one who hanged himself to death was not Ji Xu?

When Kuang Zhang ran to the main hall in a panic and saw the hanging figure of Ji Xu, that terrifying face, facing himself, seemed to be cursing him and Qi Guo. Anyway, the man was dead now, and what he feared most had happened.

"General, I found this." The soldier searched in the house, and finally found the small silk book next to Ji Xu's body, Kuang Zhang opened it and finally knew the cause of Ji Xu's death, that is, someone reported the news. The reason why he put Ji Hao and Ji Ping under house arrest was to let those Yan people not find them, and when the facts were done, they had to accept them. But now, not only Baoding's news can't be hidden, I'm afraid even Ji Hao's death can't be hidden for long.

"What's going on?"

"I guess it's caught in the middle of rice. Next to those meals, we found a small bamboo tube. ”

"What about the person who delivers the food? Hurry up! ”

"I've already been arrested, but according to the report." The lieutenant general glanced at Kuang Zhang, lowered his head and continued, "That man has left, and no one will see him again. ”

Kuang Zhang grasped the silk book in his hand more and more tightly, and he slowly paced to the side of the food, the beef sauce was still fragrant, very tempting. Kuang Zhang looked at it, and suddenly swept all the food to the ground, "Close the city gate and lock the whole city!" Dare to spread rumors, behead! ”

Kuang Zhang did not miscalculate, and on the second day of Ji Xu's death, a news that Ji Hao had been killed by the Qi people spread in Jidu again. The people of Yan didn't think so at first, thinking that even if the people of Qi were so arrogant, they wouldn't dare to execute King Yan at this time, after all, it was the former king of Yan Kingdom. But soon, more and more people began to spread the news. And the soldiers patrolling the Qi State, as long as they heard someone talking about it, they were merciless and killed on the spot, which finally made the people of the Yan State realize that the rumors might be true.

The ministers of the Yan State went to the side hall where Ji Hao was under house arrest one after another, wanting to confirm the matter, and the soldiers of the Qi State must not dare to let them break in, and after the people were shocked by such news, they also began to hate the people of the Qi State.

At the same time, thousands of miles away.

"Ji Hao is dead."

In the brightly lit Hanyuan Palace, there were only two people, Zhao Yong and Le Yi. The latter handed a bamboo slip to Zhao Yong. Zhao Yong took the bamboo slip, swept it, and sighed, "It seems that the time has come." ”

"Please give the king's order."

Zhao Yong looked at the bamboo slip again and said: "The car in front is overturned, and the car behind is a lesson." ”

Le Yi responded: "It makes sense. ”
