Chapter 421: King Zhao
In the twenty-sixth year of Yongchang, the winter solstice.
The eldest princess of Changshou issued an edict on behalf of the emperor, and Li Yao, the five-year-old son of King Zhao, performed a winter ceremony on behalf of the Son of Heaven.
As soon as this incident came out, there were discussions in Beijing one after another, and there were those who were jealous and even more who drilled camps.
King Zhao closed the door and refused the endless stream of congratulatory people, closed the door, and pulled a maid to vent.
The bed curtain moved, and soon the matter was over, and King Zhao, who ended hastily, didn't seem to be happy: "Come on, find a few more women." β
The eunuch guarding the door answered "whoa".
After a while, the door was pushed open, and King Zhao didn't even look at it and said directly: "Take off your clothes and come over by yourself." β
However, for a long time, did not wait for a response.
"Dumb? Do you dare to obey the king's commands? "King Zhao was already holding back the fire in his heart, and now he is a servant girl in the house, where can he continue to hold his breath?
However, in response to him, it was a familiar voice: "Lord Wang." β
King Zhao turned around: "Princess? What are you doing here? Although they are an old couple for many years, thinking of Fang Cai's posture, King Zhao still feels a little embarrassed.
The princess is not jealous, why did she come here today?
"Let's all go down." Of course, Princess Zhao sensed her husband's embarrassment, and she felt uncomfortable. As a wife, it's one thing to know this kind of thing, and it's another thing to see it.
Seeing that the maidservant girl wrapped herself in a quilt before, everyone retreated, and she stepped forward to personally put on the clothes of King Zhao: "Lord Wang, why are you doing this? "Such indulgence, in the end, isn't it all your own body that hurts?
King Zhao took advantage of the situation and put on his clothes: "This king ...... This king feels aggrieved! β
The Lu family was born in a prominent family, and there were relatives inside and outside the court, and the Lu family itself survived the claustrophobic suffering with King Zhao, so no matter how King Zhao messed around, he always remembered to give his wife a little face.
"It's a grievance against the prince, but isn't Yao'er also the prince's child? The prince is going to think about it. "Li Yao is just a concubine, but somehow he actually cast the eyes of the eldest princess of Changshou, and often called him to wait by his side in the early years, and now he even handed over such a major event as the winter sacrifice to him.
But Li Yao is just a five-year-old child, and he is also a child, why doesn't the eldest princess want to take a look at her beauty?
"Huh." King Zhao only glanced at it and knew what his wife was thinking, Jia'er was already sensible, and it was not so easy to control, how could Changshou choose?
In the end, she is a daughter who has never seen the world, and she persuades that she is a son, but in fact, she only remembers her own parents and children in her heart.
"Lord Wang, the concubine is just worried about your body. The king of Chu is not afraid, and the king of Lu has been claustrophobic for a long time, as long as the army can stop the king of Qi who is heading south, we have nothing to fear. You don't need to be ...... like that."
"What's like that?" King Zhao laughed at himself: "You don't understand, you don't understand at all." Do you really care about me? β
Lu Shi was surprised: "Isn't it?" "Although the eldest princess doesn't like Jia'er, as long as she still values King Zhao, it's fine.
In today's situation, apart from King Qi, who else can compare with his husband?
As long as her husband can ascend to the throne, then she will be the queen, Jia'er is a righteous concubine, and it is useless for Li Yao to be favored, so she has been telling herself, don't worry, don't worry.
"The eldest princess likes and trusts only herself." King Zhao said coldly.
What does that mean? Lu Shi became more and more confused.
Xu is Lu looked at her husband with too much admiration, so that King Zhao suddenly found a sense of superiority, Xu is King Zhao himself was depressed for too long and needed to talk, he actually explained patiently for the first time: "Now the situation seems to be the most favorable to me, my aunt and grandmother are the most fond of me, but my father is still different from Yao'er's son." King Qi, King Lu, King Chu, hehe, those of us surnamed Li, maybe the one who will live the longest in the end will be King Lu. β
Lu Shi's face turned pale when he heard this.
Didn't the prince mean it...... King Lu has been claustrophobic, as long as he can enjoy his loneliness in peace, there will be less fighting outside, and he will live for a long time? Is the prince worried that he can't beat King Qi?
She persuaded: "Don't worry, the sixteen guards of Gyeonggi are not joking, and besides, the eldest princess has already gathered troops from everywhere." β
"You still don't understand." King Zhao sighed: "No matter how much we fight surnamed Li, I'm afraid we are all making wedding dresses for Changshou, so you understand?" β
"How could it be...... Does the prince mean? Lu opened his mouth and covered his mouth again, how could it be?
"Hehe, you didn't understand it." King Zhao snorted coldly: "I have pretended to be so cowardly and respectful, I can't even win the trust of my aunt and grandmother, thinking that he believes Yao'er now?" No, she just thinks that the child is young and easy to control. β
Lu's face was like a blank piece of paper, and he couldn't say a word.
"Speaking of which, my aunt and grandmother are also surnamed Li, and she received the most praise when she was young, and she is much stronger than a concubine of the first emperor, if it weren't for the fact that she was born a woman, where would there be the first emperor or anything?"
"The prince is silent!" Lu Shi was frightened, and finally reacted.
King Zhao laughed and said, "What are you afraid of?" Can't you tell the truth in your own home? Li Shen is a demon woman, she doesn't believe in fate, but she was born a woman, how can she, how dare she! Ah, you say, you say! β
Seeing that her husband was almost crazy, Lu suddenly said, "Lord Wang, then let's escape?" With Jia'er, our family escaped from the capital. β
"Run? Where to flee to? Ran away from your mother's house? Hehe, you don't look at it, now that the heroes are divided and the rebels are rising, it will be chaotic in the northwest and southwest. Wherever you flee, it's a death. β
"No, my lord, although my mother's family does not lead troops, but there are many relatives who lead troops, if we ......"
King Zhao was stunned, and the crazy look on his face was gone.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Yongchang twenty-seven years, March 3.
King Zhao staged a coup d'Γ©tat at the spring banquet of the eldest princess of Changshou, which ended in failure.
A total of 16 people from the Lu family, Princess Zhao, her sons and daughters, and Lu's henchmen died in front of the Calyx Tower, and the mastermind Zhao Wang killed himself in front of his wife and children, and the other henchmen including the Pei family, the Wang family, the Qian family, and the Xi family were all ambushed.
In April, Emperor Li Wei was sick for a long time, and finally drove to the west, and Changshou helped Li Yao, the son of King Zhao, to ascend the throne as emperor, and listened to the government as the eldest princess of the regent.
It is known as the "Twenty-Seven Changes" in history.
I heard that that year, the grass and trees in front of the calyx building grew extraordinarily luxuriantly, all because of the blood-stained jade steps, and the corpses were full of bones, and there were countless of them.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
At the end of April, after several years of fighting and separating countless rebel armies, 19 roads gradually became the climate, and they successively established themselves as kings, known as "19 roads against the king".
In the name of "Qingjun side", the anti-kings of the Nineteenth Road have issued crusades against Changshou. In the past, such rebellious ministers and thieves united and divided the territory, but at this moment, because Changshou shook hands and made peace, discussed the plan to eliminate traitors, and marched towards the capital in early May.
Also in April, the remnants of Xidi united with the West Branch of Mobei to break through the wild capital, and reassembled with the Heishui Eagle, heading towards Liangzhou, and the northwest gateway of Daning was about to usher in an unprecedented impact.
The chaos in Daning broke out completely.
