Chapter 7: The Great Change
Compared with the tense atmosphere of the court, the palace of the king of Qingcheng was relatively calm, without a trace of tension and panic, as if the army that suddenly did not obey the order had nothing to do with it.
Since seeing the Emperor Taishang come back, Yan Qingcheng locked himself in his room, and the night has passed, and he does not eat or drink and does not allow outsiders to disturb him.
Outside the door, an old eunuch walked back and forth with an anxious face, and wanted to knock on the door of the king of Qingcheng several times, but he couldn't help it.
The old eunuch sighed and looked at King Qingcheng's room, "Lord Wang, why are you doing this, didn't you think of such a result a long time ago?"
As Yan Qingcheng's personal eunuch, he didn't have to think about why Yan Qingcheng locked himself in his room.
Yan Qingcheng is unwilling!
Anyone who covets that supreme position, no one can be reconciled, after all, Yan Qingcheng is a person who has half a foot on the throne, and in this way, he was ousted from the throne by his younger brother who is two years younger than him, how can Yan Qingcheng feel good in his heart?
But......
That was the emperor's decision, how unwilling he Yan Qingcheng was, no matter how he was unconvinced, he could only swallow the pain in his heart.
In the Yan Kingdom, no one has dared to disobey the Emperor Taishang, even if he is the new emperor who has just ascended the throne, his power is soaring, and in front of the Emperor Taishang, he can only live by relying on people's breath.
No one can make an exception, in the Yan Kingdom, the power of the Emperor Taishang is too strong.
King Qingcheng was not reconciled, but what could he do?
No, he didn't have that kind of guts, and he didn't have an elite army that could compare to the Shenwu Army under the command of the new monarch.
has neither the courage nor the strength, so the king of Qingcheng can only lock himself in the room and sulk, using his body as a punching bag.
"The Boss ......"
At this moment, Xiao Si hurriedly ran in and whispered a few words in the old eunuch's ear, and the old eunuch's face changed wildly, his feet shook, and he almost didn't stand firmly.
"How is that possible?"
After sending Xiao Si away, the old eunuch murmured softly, and the look in his eyes began to become solemn.
The deacons of the four major sects hidden in Yandu secretly came to see the king of Qingcheng, and the old eunuch was not an ordinary person, so he could naturally see that the deacons of the four major sects came to visit the king of Qingcheng at this time, and they were uneasy and kind.
However, even if he knew it, he didn't dare to excuse the meeting for Yan Qingcheng without authorization, the old eunuch knocked on Yan Qingcheng's door helplessly, and after a long time, a faint sound came from the room, and Yan Qingcheng's hoarse voice followed: "What's the matter?"
Hearing Yan Qingcheng's hoarse voice, the old eunuch's eyes showed a look of distress, Yan Qingcheng was raised by him since he was a child, and now that he has been wronged, he feels uncomfortable, but he doesn't know how to comfort Yan Qingxuan,
He took a deep breath before he spoke, "Lord Wang, the deacons of the four major sects have come to visit Lord Wang. ”
The old eunuch's words fell for a long time, and there was no answer in the room, and the old eunuch was not in a hurry, the master had his own master's decision, he was just a slave of the king of Qingcheng, and he couldn't make the decision of the king of Qingcheng, so he waited patiently outside the door for Yan Qingxuan's decision.
To say that he is not enterprising is false, he also fantasized that one day, he can become a great eunuch like Zhao Wuyang, nine days ago, he could still see hope, but yesterday, when the king of Qingcheng was defeated, the fiery thought in his heart was instantly extinguished, at this time, it was already all right to save his life.
Of course, some things can't be said and let go, especially the temptation of power, which is even more unstoppable.
Not only was King Qingcheng unwilling, but he was also unwilling, but he knew better than his master Yan Qingxuan in his heart that from the moment Emperor Taishang stood up to support the new emperor, King Qingcheng had no hope.
However, now, the deacons of the four major sects have come to the door, which has given him a glimmer of hope.
The sect controls the dynasty, and the Yan Kingdom is the dynasty under the rule of the Heavenly Sword Sect.
If the four major sects supported it, how could the king of Qingcheng have no hope? What's more, outside the city of Yandu, the army of the Nine Roads came to the city, ignoring the orders of the new emperor, and there were signs of entering the palace of Yandu.
Don't......
In an instant, the old eunuch thought of a possibility, this thought instantly magnified in his mind, and his eyes suddenly looked at the room of the King of Qingcheng, his eyes flashing with strong desire.
Lord, you must agree!
If it was really as he thought, King Qingcheng, with the support of the four major sects, had every chance to defeat Yan Qingxuan and become the new monarch of Yan Kingdom.
"Take them to the living room. ”
In the waiting of the old eunuch's eyes, King Qingcheng finally made a decision after countless struggles in his heart.
"Yes. ”
The old eunuch looked happy, and bowed deeply to Yan Qingcheng through the door, he thought well, King Qingcheng was also ambitious.
The old eunuch left with endless desire, and in the room, Yan Qingcheng slapped himself twice, his confused eyes suddenly cleared up a lot, and he was also in a lot of energy, "Hehe, are the four major sects?"
Yan Qingcheng's eyes flashed with a strange light, no one knew what he was thinking in his heart, he simply tidied up his clothes and walked out of the room.
Not long after, Yan Qingcheng and the deacons of the four major sects met in the living room, and he drove everyone away, including the old eunuch.
Yan Qingcheng talked with the four deacons for a long time, which lasted from morning to noon, making people wait restlessly.
Except for Yan Qingcheng and the four deacons, no one knew what they had talked about and what deal they had reached.
However, the old eunuch, whose eyes had been covered by desire, noticed that the deacons had a satisfied smile on their faces when they left, and since meeting the four deacons, the spirit of King Qingcheng had returned to its former state, and he was even more confident than before.
Seeing Yan Qingcheng's appearance, the old eunuch was naturally overjoyed, it seemed that there was no need for him to mobilize the prince, and the prince himself would be able to come out of the shadows.
Of course, the old eunuch knew in his heart that if he hadn't met with the deacons of the four major sects, it would be impossible for King Qingcheng to recover his spirit and fighting spirit so quickly.
But no matter what, everything is developing in a good direction, and his heart is becoming more and more active.
In the afternoon, the new emperor stood at the south gate of Yandu and questioned the commander of the Nine Roads army, but was responded to by the rain of arrows of King Qin's army.
This change frightened the important ministers of the court, and after that, they stopped the new emperor alive and dead, and never allowed the new emperor to act without permission, and no longer dared to let the new emperor put himself in a dangerous situation.
At the same time, this change also cast a shadow on the hearts of all people in Yandu.
The Nine-Way Army is out of control, and the imperial court is in danger!
In addition to the Shenwu Army, there is only the forbidden army that has been disabled by the Shenwu Army, and if you want to resist the nearly 300,000 horses of the army of the Nine Roads Qinwang, you are obsessed.
Some people have already begun to prepare for the back road with the new emperor on their backs, of course, everything is going on in secret.
And the old eunuch of the king of Qingcheng is also active in Yandu City at this moment, this afternoon, he walked a lot of important ministers of the court who had walked closely with the king of Qingcheng before, this trip out, coupled with the great changes that occurred between the army of the king of the city outside the city and the new emperor in the afternoon, let him get a huge harvest.
At night, the crescent moon hung on the branches, and the old eunuch returned to the Qingcheng Palace.
