As soon as Old Man Tao died, Emperor Yongtai had an explanation for the princes and kings of the world.

The princes and kings of the world rebelled, and the good name said: Qing Jun's side!

Hehe!

Qingjun's side is good!

The princes of the world, Wang Qing, are nothing more than the Tao family.

Come and take a look, bewitching the emperor and being disgusted by the people of the world, the head of the Tao family, the old man Tao is dead!

Their heads were cut off, and they died no more.

From now on, the Tao family will gradually decline.

The princes and kings of the world, the purpose of your Qingjun side has been achieved, and finally forced Old Man Tao to be in a different place.

Therefore, the task on the side of the Qing monarch has been completed, what face do you have to continue to rebel, are you not afraid of being scolded by the world?

The news of Old Man Tao's death spread all over the world.

The capital, the court, and the emperor are all waiting for the reaction of the princes and kings of the world.

The princes and kings have not yet responded, but the partial division of the Dongping Palace, which took the lead in attacking the Gyeonggi area, retreated with great fanfare, retreating thousands of miles.

As soon as this partial division retreated, the other armies that invaded the Gyeonggi area looked at each other.

Why don't you all quit!

The heads of the Tao family are all dead, and no one will bewitch the emperor in the future.

I think that the emperor will no longer make perverse actions and kill the princes and kings of the world.

The army is about to move, and the princes and kings of the world can't sit still.

Retire, or, not retreat?

It was a pity that they finally attacked the Gyeonggi area and retreated like this.

However, the old man of the Tao family is dead, and the people who want to be Qing on the side of the Qing monarch have been ambushed, if they do not retreat and continue to attack the capital, they may be criticized by the world.

The people in the south of the Great Wei River were engulfed by the war.

They all know that they want to kill the traitors around the emperor, and now the news of Old Man Tao's ambush has spread all over the world, for the sake of the people's hearts and people's popularity, I am afraid that they can only temporarily withdraw from the army.

It's very unpleasant though!

can only retreat for the time being, and then slowly figure it out.

This battle is far from over.

Everyone knows that the Qingjun side is just a fig leaf.

The real purpose of this battle is to overthrow Emperor Yongtai and to rebel.

The reason on the side of the Qing monarch is gone, and the next problem in front of the princes and kings of the world is to find a reason to continue to send troops to fight with the imperial court, and it is still a high-sounding reason, so that no one in the world can find fault.

The name is right!

The emperor's perverse behavior and improper position may be a reason.

……

After Xiao Guo received Xiao Yi's news, he immediately led his troops to retreat, and retreated thousands of miles.

Just settled down in the barracks, the herald gave the order, saying that it was summoned by the prince.

Xiao said: "Got it", settled down, changed into a regular clothes, and then went to see King Dongping.

King Dongping has been in high spirits lately.

His eldest son, led his troops, took the lead in attacking the Gyeonggi area, and captured two county towns, which was passed down in front of the princes and kings of the world.

He also received a lot of flattery and co-optation because of this.

But he didn't be happy for too long, and Xiao Guo took the lead in choosing to retreat.

Let the king of Dongping become the target of the public, and the princes and kings of the world accused him of disturbing the morale of the army.

This breath made him angry......

Therefore, as soon as Xiao Guo returned, he ordered someone to summon him.

When the father and son meet, there is no father-son warmth, only business.

King Dongping sat down with a golden knife and asked directly: "Without the order of this king, why do you want to withdraw from the army?" ”

Xiao Guo bowed his head and replied respectfully: "Old man Tao is ambushed, the Qing monarch is dead, and his son continues to stay in Gyeonggi, which is of no benefit, and I am afraid that my father's reputation will be ruined." Therefore, the son made an assertion and chose to withdraw from the army. ”

Syllable!

King Dongping slapped the table and scolded sharply, "Even if you want to withdraw your troops, you should act on the orders of this king." This king agrees that you will withdraw from the army, and you can withdraw from the army. You didn't greet your allies and withdrew without permission, do you know how passive this king is? Recently, there has been a steady stream of people asking about sin, and it's all because of you. ”

"My son is at fault! However, the father was not a vassal of anyone, and he did not need the consent of others to act. Why did they ask the guilty father? ”

"Don't talk about these things. The princes and kings of the world have to have one heart and twist into a rope before things can be done. ”

Xiao Guo frowned slightly, "But, does my father believe that the princes and kings of the world are one heart?" If one day, if you really attack the capital, who should be the leader? Who should be the main one? Father is now retreating everywhere, and when he enters the capital in the future, he will have no chance! ”

"...... you" King Dongping was at a loss for a moment, is this still the eldest son of an honest and dutiful son? Could it be Xiao Yat leaning over?

King Dongping shook his head again and again, how could he suddenly think of Xiao Yi's rebel.

How unreasonable!

He said impatiently: "What this king wants to do and how to do it, it is not your turn to dictate to the side. Stand down! In the future, without the military order of the king, no troops shall be sent without authorization. ”

"My son obeys!"

Xiao Guo decisively withdrew from the camp, but met the second brother who came on, the eldest son of the current Princess of Dongping.

"Big brother, you're back!"

Xiao Xun greeted Xiao Guo with an enthusiastic face, "I heard that the eldest brother personally led troops to attack the Gyeonggi area, and the emperor was so frightened that he could only kill the old man of the Tao family, and I deeply admire my younger brother." In the evening, I prepare a table of wine and food, just our brothers, don't get drunk and don't go home, okay? ”

Xiao Guo said with a smile: "Thank you second brother for your kindness!" I just came back, and everything hasn't been arranged yet, so let's do it another day! Another day, I'll be the east, invite a few younger brothers to appreciate their faces, and everyone will be close and close together. ”

Xiao Xun looked happy, "Then it's decided!" I'm waiting for my eldest brother's wine, and my eldest brother must not break his promise. ”

Xiao Guo said: "I won't break my word!" ”

……

Capital!

Because the princes and kings withdrew their troops, the crisis in the Gyeonggi area was resolved, and everyone from the small people in the market to the princes of the imperial court breathed a sigh of relief.

During the court discussion, some courtiers stood up and openly patted the emperor's ass.

It is said that the emperor was far-sighted and made a quick decision, and the Gyeonggi crisis was resolved.

There are also courtiers who stood up and asked for the Tao family to be killed.

Anyway, the old man Tao is dead, the backbone of the Tao family is gone, and it is time to completely solve the Tao family by taking advantage of his illness to kill him.

As a result, Queen Tao also lost the support of her mother's family.

The status of the three princes......

Hehe!

I'm afraid that it will have to change when the time comes.

However, the emperor did not agree to kill the Tao family.

"With his own death, the prince of the court has fulfilled the princes of the court, and he can be a loyal minister and a good general. Ladies and gentlemen, how can you exterminate the Tao family and force me to be that unkind and unrighteous person! It's about the Tao family, and I'll mention it again in the future! ”

As soon as Emperor Yongtai's voice fell, this matter set the tone.

For the time being, the crisis of the Tao family has passed, and it is safe for now.

As for what the future holds, that's not a good idea.

Maybe one day the situation will change again, and the Tao family will be pushed out to kill again!

Anyway, the Tao family has become the biggest back-stabber.

All the black cauldrons are placed on the Tao family, and there is definitely nothing wrong with it.

Despicable?

Shameless?

Is it cruel?

It's vile, it's shameless, it's cruel.

This is how the court struggle has always been.

Either the east wind overpowers the west wind, or the west wind overpowers the east wind.

The Tao family has been in the limelight for more than ten years, and it is time to clean the court up and down.

Especially the lackeys of the Tao family, they have to find an opportunity to drive them all out of the court.

……

Empress Tao was not idle, and took the opportunity of the emperor to send a message to protect the Tao family, she frequently sent people to contact the ministers of the court and the central government to stabilize people's hearts.

At the same time, Queen Tao also set off a storm in the harem.

She used the excuse to dispose of several concubines.

thought that the Tao family had fallen and Queen Tao was about to fall out of favor, and the concubines thought of a way to sue Emperor Yongtai.

Emperor Yongtai used the sentence "The queen is the master of the harem affairs" and sent people away.

With the emperor to speak, Empress Tao was even more unscrupulous.

There is Zhaoyi Niangniang to invite pets and charm the emperor.

Queen Tao directly ordered to kill the people!

Zhaoyi Niangniang is dead!

Everyone thought that this time the emperor would not tolerate Empress Tao again.

Once again, however, they were disappointed.

The emperor did not ask about the death of Zhaoyi Niangniang.

Zhaoyi Niangniang died in vain!

Queen Tao suddenly felt smooth and in a good mood.

She used strong tactics to show her authority and warn some people that they could be bullied if they wanted to be a Taoist.

As long as she lives, the Tao family will not be able to cross.

Any concubine and prince would never think of crossing their mother and son.

If you dare to challenge her status, there is only one end, and that is "death".

Tough measures do have the effect of rallying people's hearts.

Those officials who were still waiting and watching, or who were ready to go to the Lord and find a way out again, gathered firmly around the Tao family again.

On the surface, they are supporting the Tao family, but in fact they are supporting Queen Tao and the third prince Xiao Chengyi.

The three princes should become princes, which is also their goal.

……

The third prince, Xiao Chengyi, was not idle, and suddenly asked for an order and wanted to go to the Northern Army for training.

Emperor Yongtai looked at him with complicated eyes, "You haven't gotten married yet, so you want to go to the Northern Army for training?" ”

"Please fulfill your father!" Xiao Chengyi knelt on the ground and pleaded.

Emperor Yongtai asked casually, "Is it your own idea, or is it your mother's idea?" ”

Xiao Chengyi said loudly: "This matter has nothing to do with the queen mother, it is my son's own thoughts." The princes and kings of the world have long had the heart of disobedience, and the Qing monarch's side is just a reason for them to rebel. Seeing the princes and kings of the world in turmoil, but Erchen couldn't do anything, Erchen blamed himself very much. Therefore, I implore my father to let my sons go to the Northern Army for training and kill the princes and kings of the world. ”

Emperor Yongtai nodded secretly, and his words made him very satisfied.

He approvingly: "Very good! You have the ambition to live up to what I have taught you. I agree that you will go to the Northern Army for training, and you will listen to orders under the banner of the Great General. Remember, don't mess around with the status of a prince. If I let me know that you have harmed the Northern Army and brought bad morale to the Northern Army, I will not spare you. ”

Xiao Chengyi said loudly: "Son-in-law remember the teachings of the emperor! When you get under the banner of the general, it is the general's soldier. The sons must be strict with themselves and never disgrace their father! ”

Emperor Yongtai laughed, I am very relieved to have a son like this.

The news that the third prince, Xiao Chengyi, went to the Northern Army for training spread throughout the court in a blink of an eye.

Some people praise it, some people depreciate it, some people look on it coldly, and some people are in a hurry.

The eldest prince Xiao Chengye had blisters at the corners of his mouth, his food was not fragrant, and he couldn't sleep well.

He's on fire!
