Chapter 41: Blood in front of King Yan's Mansion
As a prince, King Yan can be said to be above 10,000 people under one person.
What's more, he is also the empress's biological son, and after the death of the former Qin prince, he and King Liang were the most vocal in being elected as the crown prince.
King Yan did not have the martial arts of King Liang, and he had never gone out to fight. But his own literary talent is very outstanding, there was once an incident, that is, in the former Qin Dynasty, King Yan once secretly entered the tribute courtyard, incognito, and made a paper for the exam.
At that time, his articles could be described as splendid and beautiful. A group of examiners who reviewed the paper sent the exam paper, and in the end, everyone thought that this was a very talented person, and the paper was also very beautiful, and he could be selected as the champion.
It wasn't until the identity of King Yan was finally exposed that they knew that this was His Royal Highness King Yan.
Yan Wang became famous as a result, but he did not occupy the number of other candidates. When this was over, he went back to the house.
But it is precisely because of this incident that many scholars and scholars also began to admire King Yan.
After all, many officials are admitted by the orthodox imperial examination, and they often don't say it, but in their hearts they still look down on some people who have obtained prominent status by virtue of their connections.
King Yan has won their respect.
So in the court of the Great Zhou Dynasty, whether it is the upright Yushitai or the six departments, they will have a good impression of the Yan Wang faction.
This kind of goodwill is also based on the fact that King Yan often makes friends with Shilin and has a high reputation among the literati.
This situation, if it is in a peaceful and prosperous era, then it is a very beneficial thing for King Yan.
But now, the army of the Northern Wilderness has been overwhelmed.
Everyone knows very well that once the Northern Wilderness Army is allowed to enter, then the Central Plains will definitely be devastated, countless people will be killed, and their homes will be destroyed.
In order to prevent this from happening, you need a strong person to lead the big picture.
But today, King Yan's Mansion was surrounded by troops sent by King Liang.
This is something that no one expected, because even if the battle for succession turns around, you should choose an upright reason. At the very least, wait until the throne is seated.
Today, King Liang is a prince and King Yan is also a prince, which is the same rank, and at the same time received the edict of the empress.
The reason given by King Liang is to kill the villain.
Yan Wang is surrounded by a group of staff members who usually give him advice.
This is also a very common thing, after all, a person's intelligence is still limited, and the wisdom of a group of people is far more than the former.
Mr. Liang said that some of these aides were sowing discord between their brothers. Such a villain can be described as a disaster to the country and the people, and he must not be allowed to stay.
Even a three-year-old child can't fool such a reason.
If it is just to catch a literati who is powerless, it is also necessary to send a brave and warlike Mobei Iron Cavalry, which is really ridiculous.
The reaction of the Yan Wangfu was also very strange, because even in such a situation, the gate of the Yan Wangfu was still closed, and no one came out.
The Mobei army had been waiting impatiently for a long time, and after receiving the order, a general suddenly shouted: "Don't wait, rush in." ”
The heavy car slammed into the gate, which looked sturdy, but when it was hit by the car, it fell down.
After the gate collapsed, the Mobei soldiers rushed in.
They began to rummage around, but found that the house was empty.
There are many people outside the Yanwang Mansion, who are watching every day, how can there be so many people in this palace, how can they disappear out of thin air?
The generals soon found the answer, and they found a tunnel underground.
