Chapter 55: Storms Rise
"What did you say?"
In the Nanyan Palace, Yang Huang's eyes widened as he looked at the attendant who gave the order. Rebels? You just say rebellion!
"Weibei general Xiao Yu raised troops in the north and held high the banner of righteousness. Call on the loyal and righteous people of the world, and the people who think of the monarch and serve the country to gather together to overthrow Qin Xiang and rescue Your Majesty. ”
The waiter looked at Yang Huang with a look of confusion and fear, in his opinion, this was a good thing. It's not been a day or two since Qin Xiu bullied His Majesty, and now Xiao Yu has raised troops to crusade against Qin Xiu, isn't this a great thing? Why is Your Majesty still upset? He even looked angry.
"Damn it! This Xiao Yu, where does he put the majesty of the royal family? Where did he put my face? Thief! He's just a thief! ”
Yang Huang was so angry that he wanted to kill someone, and what he said sounded good was to crusade against the rebels and rescue the Son of Heaven, but what about the reality? In this way, wouldn't I admit that I am an incompetent person, and I am being teased and oppressed by powerful ministers! In this way, the people of Xu State, the history of assassination in various places, what will the general think of himself?
"Quick! Hurry up and invite the right minister into the palace, and say that I have something important to discuss. ”
Yang Huang was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, no matter whether Xiao Yu was sincere or fake. The top priority at the moment is how to minimize the impact of this matter on the royal family, and at the same time use this matter to fight against Qin Xiu, preferably to really overthrow Qin Xiu and take power into his own hands.
"It's a minion, let's go!"
When the waiter saw Yang Huang like this, he also hurriedly left the palace and went to find Fang Wei.
On the other side, Qin Xiu's place, compared to Yang Huang's panic, Qin Xiu was much calmer.
"So Xiao Yu'er now has 80,000 people? And the 40,000 soldiers of the Northland family also joined his camp? ”
Qin Xiu held the teacup and looked at the patterns on the teacup with a focused expression, as if he was deeply attracted by the patterns on it.
"That's right, now Xiao Yu's side is almost the same as our main force in terms of strength alone. Our main force is General Yao's 130,000 elite army, followed by Luo Huan, General Luo's 30,000 imperial banner army. In addition, there is Long Yang, who listens to the tune and does not listen to the announcement, he still has 40,000 imperial guards in his hands, if he can convince His Majesty, it is also a combat force. ”
"Your Majesty doesn't have to worry about it, I'm sure Your Majesty will definitely agree, right? Remaining. ”
"Your Excellency is resourceful, everything is in your plan, although Your Majesty has been dissatisfied with us for a long time, but in the eyes of your humble position, Your Majesty will definitely agree."
While expressing his opinion, Yu Geng quietly slapped a sycophant.
"Oh? How so? Your Majesty is now obedient to me, but it is only superficial. Now that Xiao Yu is raising troops, isn't it a good thing for him? ”
I don't know if Qin Xiu really doesn't know, or if he deliberately tests him.
"Because we are in power, Your Majesty is still Your Majesty. is still the Ninety-Five Supreme of Xu State, the pride of the sky. But if it is replaced by him Xiao Yu, it is not necessarily. ”
"Well, you're right. Xiao Yu raised troops, and on the surface, he was indeed fighting the Zhongxing Xu State and the Qing monarch's side, cutting off the righteous banner of traitors. ”
Qin Xiu put down the teacup, and the corners of his mouth showed a little inexplicable smile.
But his move also made His Majesty lose face, try to ask an emperor who is coerced by his courtiers, like a caged bird, the subjects of the whole world, what will the people think of him? What will you think of this Da Xu royal family? ”
Xiao Yu's move seems to be loyal, but it is not. He had already ripped off the last fig leaf of Xu Guo. ”
Qin Xiu shook his head and continued, "Right now, what we have to face is not just Xiao Yu. There are also those who have ghosts in their hearts, envy me, jealousy, and eager to replace me. ”
"Xiao Yu is just the beginning, there will be others to come. This Xu country has been completely messed up. ”
Having said that, Qin Xiu didn't panic at all. There was no roar like a storm, no angry cursing, not even a little dissatisfaction, even a little joy.
"Xiao Yu'er, it can be regarded as a good deed. The old man just took the opportunity to take a look, there are those daring guys who want to make the old man rebel! ”
Qin Xiu squinted his eyes, and said with a calm, sly smile on the corner of his mouth.
"Get ready, I'll enter the palace ......"
"Lord Zuo Xiang."
Before Qin Xiu finished speaking, a guard came over and said in his ear.
"Okay, got it. Go down. ”
Qin Xiu nodded, waved his hand to let the guards go down, and then said to Yu Geng, "You are the Ju family?"
"Exactly, he was born in the Northland. However, when I was a child, because of the oppression of my family by my family, I accidentally injured the son of the head of the family, resulting in I being expelled from the house. ”
Yu Geng was stunned for a moment, and his own family was already old and dead. And what is his situation, can he Qin Xiu not know? What does it mean to suddenly ask that now?
"Well, I see. Yougeng, there is a task at the moment, the old man wants to hand it over to you to complete, as long as it can be done, the old man will be rewarded, and it is time to change the history of Tailiangzhou. ”
"Although the lord commands, he will not give up in the next ten thousand deaths!"
Yu Geng's eyes suddenly lit up, stabbing history! This is the head of a state, mastering the people's livelihood of a state, and the real feudal official!
"I said it, don't call me lord. In this world, no one is much more noble than the other. I need subordinates, not slaves. ”
Qin Xiu waved his hand and said with some dissatisfaction.
"Yes, I am humble, and I ask for your forgiveness."
Yu Geng immediately lowered his head, a little frightened, but at the same time said with a little gratitude.
"I heard that the Ju family has also decided to help Xiao Yu."
Qin Xiu touched his chin and said pointedly.
"This ......"
Yu Geng was suddenly speechless, no matter what, he is a member of the Ju family, he is still surnamed Ju, if Qin Xiu thinks that he is a member of the Ju family, he has no choice.
"It's okay, the old man doesn't mean to blame you. Rather, I want you to persuade the Jews to take refuge in us as an internal response. ”
"Please also show me the left minister."
"I want the Ju family to delay the progress of Xiao Yu's grain and grass. Isn't the Judah family one of the best families in Tailiang State? Try to delay Xiao Yu's grain and grass escort speed, Xiao Yu will inevitably garrison troops in Zhicheng, Donggui, and Yuxian County. ”
"When the spring of the next year is full, and there is enough food and grass, he will send troops to attack me. At that time, there will inevitably be other assassins, and the general will come to the rescue. But the old man can't wait for that time, and the old man will kill the chickens and monkeys before the beginning of spring! ”
Speaking of this, Qin Xiu was awe-inspiring with murderous intent.
"When the time comes, those who have a slight disagreement will honestly surrender, while those who are ambitious will fight hard."
"The humble position will live up to the trust of the adults!"
