Chapter 125: How Can a Country Be Without a Queen?
Chen Shou and Chen Jin both committed suicide, and Ling Husu thought about it for many days and discussed with the minister many times before issuing the order.
Chen Shou removed the marquis, his family was demoted to commoners, left the capital, and was not allowed to be an official within three generations.
Chen Jin was removed from the prince, and his family was also demoted to commoners, but because they were still descendants of the royal family, they were allowed to stay in the capital to live.
As for the other rebellious generals, Ling Hu Suli disregarded public opinion and did not even care about his family. The dead were paraded through the streets for three days, and the living were beheaded for public display.
This matter is like this, so that Hu Su did not pursue the officials who secretly showed favor to Chen Jin and even provided assistance, and was unanimously supported by officials of all sizes in the DPRK and China, and he was grateful.
Chen Yi and the other three left the capital the next day, and in order to show their sincerity, the servants did not care about carrying their property.
Linghu Su is not a ruthless person, and allows their families to relocate within a month.
In this way, Ling Hu Su really felt a sense of loneliness, but fortunately, he had no true feelings for the so-called brothers, and the only one who could make him love was Su Liu.
Su Liu was frightened and couldn't afford to get sick, so he could get out of bed after half a month.
And for half a month, Su Liu read articles in bed to ensure the smooth operation of the Propaganda Department. As a result, the title of Su Liu, the female scholar, gradually spread.
Half a year later, that is, when winter was about to begin, the Northwest Army and the Eastern Navy merged in Rongcheng.
Linghu Su sat in the capital and personally supervised the manufacture and transportation of weapons, and no one could handle it. The person who secretly intercepted the artillery by the city guards was severely punished by Linghu Su.
With a steady stream of materials and weapons, the two armies not only did not weaken, but became stronger and stronger, and everywhere they went, they were unmatched, so that they reached Rongcheng, the capital of the defense of the country, in half a year.
Before that, about a week or so, it was rumored in Rongcheng that Shu Qin would cooperate with the outside to help Chen Guo take Rongcheng.
Zhao Xun, who was holding back the fire in his belly, couldn't hold back anymore, and sent many masters to arrest Shu Qin for questioning.
At that time, Shu Qin was very busy defending the country, but he knew that he had fallen into the trap of his own people, if he hadn't reacted in time, he was afraid that he would have died in his own house.
Shu Qin was furious, beheaded all the comers, and then flew up to the city, facing the people of the city, and said: "Such a country, such an emperor, such a people, deserve to die." ”
Then, Shu Qin drifted away and was never seen again.
Being so troubled by Zhao Xun and Shu Qin made Rongcheng more and more weak, and officials of all sizes either went north to Shuzhou, or secretly sent goods and news to the Northwest Army and the Eastern Navy as a sign of surrender.
When he arrived at the court, Zhao Xun sadly found that there were only a few white-haired ministers standing on the huge court. And these old ministers have never been treated well by him, and they have made things difficult in every way.
Zhao Xun cried all morning, and several old ministers also cried, and after crying, they separated, preparing for the final defense.
After Mo Zheng learned that Shu Qin had left, he knew that it was difficult to resist the defense of the country, and he regretted it in his heart, so he had to make a final plan and send a large army to take Shuzhou.
How could she have thought that Wei Guo, who had received all kinds of funding from the Qin State, would be defeated so completely and so quickly, she originally thought that Chen Guo and Wei Guo would both lose, but now it seems that it is clearly a meat bun beating the dog, the bun is gone, and the dog also shows its sharp fangs.
On the day of the siege, the head of the city was full of soldiers, and there was a row of artillery under the city, about a hundred guns, and they were bombarded with brushes and brushes, and nothing was left.
This seems to be the easiest big city for the Northwest Army and the Eastern Navy, and the army has not encountered much resistance at all, just line up to enter the city to clean up the mess.
Zhou Tianwen and Xie Rong attacked the east gate and the south gate respectively, and agreed that whoever caught the emperor Zhao Xun would be the first merit, so as soon as they entered Rongcheng, they couldn't care about anything, and rushed to the palace with a group of guards.
But halfway through, I saw smoke billowing from the palace.
Hurriedly entering the palace, the road was full of fleeing palace maids and guards, and the army of Chen followed the rules set by Linghu Su, and it was not allowed to kill people indiscriminately, especially ordinary people and prisoners.
"What's going on?" Zhou Tianwen caught an old eunuch, and his age must not be ordinary.
The old eunuch was so frightened that he grimaced with a pale face, trembling all over, unable to speak, but the little eunuch who was holding him next to him was quite calm, and replied: "General, Your Majesty has set himself on fire in Zhaoyang Palace." ”
"What? What about self-immolation? Zhou Tian asked in surprise.
"Your Majesty said that I have ruined the foundation of my ancestors, and I am not allowed to live, and I am willing to be buried with the country. General, these are Your Majesty's exact words, we are just little eunuchs, can we leave? ”
Can anyone who can hear Zhao Xun speak, can he be an ordinary eunuch!
Zhou Tianwen was in no mood to pursue it, let them go, and then rushed to Zhaoyang Palace with his personal guards, but it was already burned and could not save the fire.
"Now, the head work is gone." Zhou Tian asked with annoyance.
Linghu Su did not have emotional fluctuations after learning the battle report, his news came from the secret guard, and the imperial court would not know until a few days later, so he asked Xiu Yun to read it in public when he went to the court the next day.
The ministers were extremely angry, and there had never been such a feat since Chen Guoguo.
"This is Your Majesty's immortal achievement, and the old minister admires it."
"Your Majesty has been on the throne for more than a year, and the country of Chen changes every day, and the minister suggests that it should be announced to the world and rejoice with the people."
The courtiers expressed their opinions, almost all of them praised Ling Husu, and even Wen Zhong and Fei Qing were not exempt from vulgarity.
Ling Husu occasionally interjected, and finally concluded: "There is no need to say nothing, everything will be said when the battle report is officially transmitted." On the whole, such a result is inseparable from your efforts. However, this was only the beginning, with the Qin State in the north and the Han State in the east, the war was far from over. ”
At this time, someone asked: "Your Majesty, since we have occupied half of the world, why don't we rest and recuperate, after all, the war has cost the people and money, and the treasury has been empty." ”
Linghu Su replied: "The Qin State and the Han State will not be happy, believe it or not, when the spring begins, the Qin State will unite with the Han State and attack our country." ”
Some people believe it, some people don't believe it, so Ling Hu Su didn't say much, and let them take a charter to reward the three armies.
"As for money, is there still a shortage of defending the country? Although the people of the country have no money, the royal family is very rich. ”
"What Your Majesty said is extremely true, and the ministers admire it."
It was another sycophant, which made Hu Su speechless.
He was so pleased today that he decided to hold a banquet in the palace and invite all the ministers to attend.
Ling Husu did not serve the emperor's shelf at the banquet, and let them speak freely and eat and drink at will.
As a result, Fei Qingzhen, who had drunk a few more glasses of wine, was talking freely.
"Your Majesty, how can a country be without a queen, when will Your Majesty marry a queen, and the heart of the world will be settled."
Linghu Su was stunned, and the ministers were also a little confused, this is a big problem.
Ling Husu coughed twice and said, "I said last year that I would have a son, but I am still young and not in a hurry. Hey? Fei Xiang's son Fei Ming seems to be not young, otherwise, I will say a family affair for him, and he will definitely be right. ”
Fei Qing smiled happily and immediately thanked him.
I don't know who mentioned it: "Fei Xiangmo doesn't want your son to be the queen?" ”
At this time, the atmosphere of the banquet became more and more weird, the minister whose son had already married his wife frowned, and the son's young eyebrows expanded, thinking about it.
Linghu Su ate more and more unpleasantly, and took care of his mother for the only reason, so he went to the Tassel Palace.
When he arrived at the Tassel Palace, he heard Su Liu laughing non-stop, and Ling Hu Su asked, "Why is the queen mother so happy?" ”
"Yu'er just came from you and told you interesting things at the banquet, and they were right, you should marry, no, you should marry!" Because there was no precedent, Su Liu didn't know how to deal with it.
Yu'er is Su Liu's personal maid, only fourteen years old, good at pen and ink, and is very loved by Su Liu.
Linghu Su glared at Yu'er, and the little girl was so frightened that she hid behind Su Liu.
"What do you blame her for? Tell me, what about your life's events? ”
"Cold salad!"
Your sister, it's really not good, I'll marry a few beautiful women.
However, wouldn't this be even more uncomfortable, making Hu Su want to cry without tears.
