Chapter 281: Emperor

Although the king of Qi is not smart, but he is also a person who has experienced three years of bloody experience in the royal family, originally he was a few commanders of the Praetorian Guard, planning to defend the capital, and insisted on the East Road army entering the king of Qin, Meng Jun, Wei'an, these people who opposed him one by one, and then the little emperor was killed "accidentally" in the chaos, and he, the pro-uncle, naturally ascended the throne as the emperor. Just to ~//

But he missed two things, first, Meng Jun led the troops to be black-hearted, the ordinary march had to go for twenty days, and his soldiers only had to go for ten days, not to mention, from a few days before the emperor's death, he had already given a secret edict to Meng Jun, so that once there was a change, he would act at the opportunity, so that at that time, the northwest garrison had already set off, even if the king of Qi honestly had no battle to fight, then he should travel the mountains and rivers.

Second, there are a total of four guards guarding the city gate, one of whose surname is Tian Mingbiao, is the brother of the late Empress Tian, the king of Qi has been drinking with him, nothing more than complaining for him, but the emperor's brother-in-law is a gatekeeper, Gu Hou really does not miss the old feelings, if you help me, you will be glorious and rich in the future.

Facts have proved that Lord Tian did listen to the words of King Qi when the army was attacking the city, and simply ordered the door to be opened and released, but it was Meng Jun's army who came to attack the city.

The official sent by the king of Qi to assist Tian Biao was gagged by Tian Biao, and the five flowers were tied up and thrown on the city wall, watching the black and oppressive army under the city enter the city in an orderly and silent manner, and glared angrily at Tian Biao and whined.

Tian Biao's white and chubby face smiled slightly, patted the man's face vigorously, and sneered: "When our Tian family is stupid!" If you take care of the government, you can ensure the prosperity and stability of our Tian family, what benefits can King Qi give us if he usurps the throne? ”

At least, he can't let his sister sleep unsteadily underground!

Meng Jun was under the city, straddling on a high-headed horse, and bowed to him from afar, Tian Biao waved his hand and said to himself: "Meng Jun, this bastard has asked me to open the city gate for him before dawn for the second time!" ”

The army led by Meng Jun was divided into four groups of men, three of which pretended to attack the city from the three city gates, and the main force remained outside the city to wait for the remaining 5,000 elite men and horses, which were led into the city by Meng Jun. That's it~

The accident came too quickly, and the King of Qi, who was originally full of confidence, was caught off guard, and when he came back to his senses, Meng Jun's knife had already reached his neck.

Wei An took the edict covered with Gu Ruixue's phoenix seal and read out the eight major crimes of King Qi, of course, the biggest crime was that the people brought by Meng Jun also found a privately made dragon robe in the inner room of King Qi's mansion. *Very Learned*

After Wei An finished reading it, he glanced at the dragon robe that was obviously smaller than the fat head and big ears of King Qi, and turned his face with his back hand and walked away silently, as for whether this dragon robe was really made by King Qi and was going to be worn after losing weight, or Meng Jun temporarily took it out of the palace and was ready to charge King Qi with a private dragon robe, Zheng Guogong, who has always been honest and serious, decided to turn a blind eye this time.

The East Route Army, which walked halfway to the capital, learned the news that the King of Qi had been arrested and imprisoned, and he was beheaded soon, because the King of Qi had previously locked the city gate and none of the forces of the King of Qi had run out, and after Meng Jun came back, he killed cleanly, chopped and exiled, and within two days, the King of Qi had been uprooted.

The generals of the Eastern Route Army, who were still halfway there, were dumbfounded, could they still enter Beijing? The old leader Dingxihou has been put in prison, and I don't know if they can come out, and they can't go in or back.

Or the book of the general of the East Route Army thought of a not-so-clever idea, and wrote a letter to the capital quickly, very sincerely saying that he had received an order from the imperial court, asking them to bring troops into Beijing, but he felt that something was wrong, and asked the queen to make it clear what was going on.

Soon the reply from the imperial court arrived, and Gu Hou said very kindly, Aiqing, you have been deceived, the order is fake, go home obediently! The court will not pursue the fact that you people are stupid and deceived.

So, when they set off, the huge East Route Army quietly returned to the station, and the joy of the rest of their lives after the catastrophe was really a bad thing if they rushed over without a head or brain, they hadn't fought for many years, and they went to fight to the death with the Turkic and Tuyuhun cavalry in the northwest all day long, do you think so much!

Jin Qing took Li Hong in a sedan chair and walked in the direction of Gu Ruixue's dormitory, the situation in the capital has stabilized, and the people who were originally restless and panicked have also calmed down, Jin Qing opened the curtain a crack, although the palace maids and eunuchs who passed by were still in a hurry, but the peace of mind and joy on their faces could not be stopped no matter what. That's it~

Anyway, with a master who can kowtow, life has a new direction of struggle, these are all happy, aren't they!

Jin Qing put down the curtain, Li Hong in his arms was still sleeping, a few days ago, this little crying and making trouble to find the queen mother, to go back to the palace, these days and Zongniang have fun, and I don't want to go back.

After the sedan chair walked for a while, Jin Qing heard a woman's cry outside, and opened the curtain only to see the closed palace gate and the high courtyard wall.

"What's going on?" Jin Qing asked the eunuch carrying the sedan chair.

The little eunuch in front replied softly: "Back to Mrs. Hui's words, these people were ordered by the queen mother to be sent to the emperor's mausoleum, to guard the emperor's mausoleum, and pray for blessings and recitations. ”

"Who are they?" Jin Qing continued to ask.

"Mrs. Hui's words were selected by the previous batch of show girls who entered the palace, and the slaves don't know who they are." The little eunuch replied, thought about it and added, "But the queen mother said that they were looking forward to being closer to the emperor before, and now that the emperor is gone, they must also fulfill their wishes." ”

Jin Qing smiled and lowered the curtain.

The overall situation has just been decided, and those that need to be liquidated, those that need to be rewarded, and those that need to be treated coldly······ Gu Ruixue was busy turning around, took Li Hong, who was still sleeping in Jin Qing's arms, lovingly hugged him in his arms, and sighed in a low voice: "Fat, we are all scared and have lost a lot of weight, only this little one is still fat." ”

"A few days ago, he was clamoring for you, and in the past few days, Meng Jun has made him a few rare toys, and he has thrown everything aside." Jin Qing said with a smile.

Taking advantage of Gu Ruixue's happiness, Jin Qing asked: "When I came over, I heard many women crying, and I heard that these people were going to be sent to the emperor's mausoleum. ”

Gu Ruixue nodded, with a cold smile on the corner of her mouth, "These people all support King Qi, but they are just punished to guard the imperial tomb, I still think they are cheap, so I will be an example of killing chickens and monkeys." ”

Jin Qing sweated a little, and the king of Qi was cut down by your neat order, cousin, where are you killing chickens and monkeys, you are clearly killing monkeys and making an example of chickens.

"What's next for my cousin?" Jin Qing asked. She didn't call Gu Ruixue the queen, she just called her cousin.

Gu Ruixue rubbed her eyebrows, she has been too busy these days, but the question that should be considered is imminent, and Jinqing's question is exactly what everyone wants to ask, what should I do?

"Da Lang is young, I really don't feel at ease." Gu Ruixue sighed.

Jin Qing was silent when he heard this, he was only an eleven-year-old child, and letting him pro-government was tantamount to sending him to a group of oily officials to be fooled by them.

"The view of Zheng Guogong and several other lords is to set up three auxiliary ministers to form a council, but any disagreement on state affairs is decided by the three auxiliary ministers." Gu Ruixue said again.

After a while, Jin Qing said, "Cousin, this is not appropriate. ”

Wei An's intentions may be good, his idea is a bit like the cabinet system of the Ming Dynasty, where cabinet ministers determine the direction of the entire country. If the cabinet chief assistant is a promising person with lofty ambitions, the country will be strong, such as Zhang Juzheng, of course, if unfortunately there is a cabinet chief assistant who wants to compete for power and profit and make a fortune, the country will be moldy, such as Yan Song.

If the emperor is smart and strong enough, then he has the capital to play with the powerful ministers, if the emperor is not smart enough to play with these old foxes with protégés all over the world, it will be a complete tragedy, waiting to be set aside.

Gu Ruixue nodded and sneered: "I know, Da Lang is too young, if he waits until he gets married, he will have to wait for at least three or four years, during this period, those ministers hold heavy power, act on behalf of the emperor, and taste the taste and sweetness of power, how can they be willing to return to the emperor, who will spit out the meat in their stomachs?" ”

"But ······" Gu Ruixue stretched out her hand and touched the sleeping Li Hong's little face in her arms, and suddenly sighed lonely, "But what is the best way?" I know that Zheng Guogong is credible, Meng Jun is credible, you are credible, and the rest, I can't believe it, and those people won't think about Zhilang for the sake of Datang. ”

Jin Qing was slightly surprised, listening to Gu Ruixue's meaning, she should have accepted Wei An's proposal to set up an auxiliary minister, and she also wanted Meng Jun to be an auxiliary minister.

Meaninglessly, Jin Qing opened his mouth and said, "This is not appropriate." "Meng Jun already holds the military power in the northwest, the reason why he can stay in the capital is in front of the emperor and the queen, to see which general in the Tang Dynasty is stationed in the capital? If he is made an auxiliary minister again, he is afraid that the voice of suspicion and questioning in the world will drown him, and when he takes power, who will believe that Meng Jun will not rebel?

When the time comes, they will be struggling in the capital, and I am afraid that Gu Ruixue will not believe them.

Looking at Gu Ruixue's face, it seemed that Jin Qing said this in her expectation, Jin Qing knew that she was too worried, Gu Ruixue just politely told her about it, and probably didn't think about letting Meng Jun be the auxiliary minister at all.

"Cousin, don't think too much, the so-called emperor's technique, when it comes to the word checks and balances, those ministers can't be trusted, as long as they can do things for the emperor, isn't it?" Jin Qing persuaded.

Gu Ruixue looked at Jin Qing and smiled in surprise, "You know a lot, checks and balances... … It's a new word, not bad! ”

Jin Qing smiled embarrassedly, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in her mind, and she couldn't help grabbing Gu Ruixue's hand, and said in a low voice, "Cousin, would you like to······ To be an emperor? ”
