Chapter 316: Bringing in hostages

The Zen throne ceremony of the Southern Night Country was held, and the old emperor has lived a life of teasing his grandson since then, and the new emperor has ascended the throne, so he naturally has to implement some policies, what amnesty to the world, tax reduction or exemption, it can be said that the new emperor must do on the throne. This is done to show the emperor's grace, and secondly, it is natural to buy people's hearts.

Que Qingyang himself knows very well that once Que Feiyang marries Huo Xiaoxiao, then the soldiers in the hands of the general will also be Que Feiyang, the matter is already imminent, he has to act quickly, otherwise, once Que Feiyang sits on the throne, then it will be difficult for him to overthrow Que Feiyang.

Thinking of this, Que Qingyang found his henchmen to discuss the plan for the next part.

The next day, Que Zhaohua took his son Xiahou Chengye to play in Jindu in the Southern Night Kingdom, but unexpectedly met Que Qingyang on the road. Que Qingyang put on a warm smile, "Imperial sister, why did you come out alone with the child, and you didn't even bring an entourage." ”

"It's okay with the eldest brother, Jing Qi sent a secret guard to protect him in secret, besides, I haven't been back for many years. Now, the changes in this Jincheng are really big. ”

"Yes, you have been married for so long, and you have never come back, you must stay a few more days when you come back this time, and Feiyang will soon marry Huo Xiaoxiao as the queen, you have to stay and drink Feiyang's wedding wine." Que Qingyang said with the appearance of a good brother.

"Huh? Marrying Xiaoxiao as a queen so soon? It's only been a few days since my father mentioned this matter, and the emperor married the queen, so I'm afraid these days are not enough time to prepare. Que Zhaohua smiled lightly.

"You don't have to worry about this, there are so many people in the palace. I've prepared several congratulatory gifts, but I can't decide which one to give, so why don't you go to my house and help me choose? Que Qingyang said with a smile.

Hearing this, Que Zhaohua smiled and agreed. immediately took his son and went to Que Qingyang's mansion, because he was not crowned king, and the plaque of the mansion could only be Que Mansion.

However, what Que Zhaohua never expected was that she had stepped into Que Qingyang's trap. Que Qingyang leaned down, picked up Xiahou Chengye and said, "Chengye, it's okay to go to my uncle's mansion to play." ”

"Okay, okay, Chengye has never been to his uncle's mansion." Xiahou Chengye clapped his hands and laughed. He was raised by his mother since he was a child, and he was as innocent and kind as his mother, and he didn't know the sinister world at all.

At night, Xiahou Jingqi and King Qi waited until late when Que Zhaohua and Xiahou Chengye came back, and the secret guards who went with them only reported that the lady and the little prince had gone to Que Qingyang's mansion.

"Come on, prepare the carriage, I'll go to Que Qingyang's mansion to pick up their mother and son back." Xiahou Jingqi was impatient to wait, and hurriedly ordered the entourage outside the door.

"No need, if they can come back, they will come back a long time ago, and let's see what Que Qingyang will do next." King Qi said lightly. Immediately poured himself a cup of tea and drank it, and poured another cup for Xiahou Jingqi.

Where did Xiahou Jingqi have the heart to drink any tea, Niu Yin generally drank a cup of tea, "Lord Wang, do you mean that this Que Qingyang deliberately took away Zhaohua and Chengye?" ”

"yes, what do you think?" King Qi raised his eyebrows and said.

"Then what did he do when he captured Zhaohua and Chengye?" Xiahou Jingqi said angrily. It's okay if you don't come back, but when you come back, you'll have such a troublesome thing. He never wanted to get involved in these messy battles for imperial power, but he wanted to involve him.

"The person he wants is not you, nor is he a successor, but the person he wants is this king." King Qi said lightly.

"To ...... You? Lord, what does he want you to do? Xiahou Jingqi wondered. This King Qi has nothing to do with Que Qingyang, even if he arrests people and threatens them, it is only useful to arrest King Qi's wife and children, what is the use of arresting his wife and children.

"Yes, what he wants to do, this king doesn't know yet, so all he can do now is wait." King Qi said calmly.

Wait? Where is Xiahou Jingqi waiting, no matter who Que Qingyang is aiming for, he will cause harm to others. No, he can't wait, he must rescue his wife and children, and don't let this Que Qingyang use his own relatives as bargaining chips for his own selfish desires.

Thinking of this, Xiahou Jingqi hurriedly went out, and the strange thing was that King Qi did not stop him, but just let Xiahou Jingqi rush out.

"Lord Wang, don't you stop Grandpa Xiahou?" Remnant Wind asked.

"Can you stop it?" King Qi said lightly. As if none of these things had anything to do with him.

About another hour passed, and Xiahou Jingqi still didn't come back, "Lord, it's been so long, Grandpa Xiahou hasn't come back yet, should we go and find it." ”

King Qi took a deep breath, opened his eyes and said, "Count the people and go to the Que Mansion." He was just waiting for a moment, he thought it would take a long time, but he didn't expect this Que Qingyang to be so impatient.

"Lord Wang, the soldiers and horses are ready, do you want to leave now?" Remnant Wind asked respectfully.

"Let's go." King Qi said loudly. immediately turned over and went straight to Que Qingyang's mansion......

In a moment, King Qi and his troops had already arrived at the door of Que Qingyang's mansion.

With a creak, the door of the Que Mansion opened, and Que Qingyang walked out in an indigo robe, "King Qi? What is the reason why you brought so many soldiers and horses to my house in the middle of the night? ”

"My brother-in-law's family is a guest in your house, and this king is here to pick them up." King Qi said with a smile.

"Brother-in-law? It seems that Princess Qi only has one younger brother, right? Que Qingyang sneered. Xiahou's family is a bargaining chip for him to make King Qi willing to be a hostage, how can he let it go casually. Without King Qi as a hostage, then he has no way to negotiate terms with Princess Qi.

"Don't you just want this king to be your hostage so that you can negotiate terms with this king's princess? If you arrest the Xiahou family, you know that the consequences of Princess Qi's anger are also very serious. ”

"Hahaha, King Qi really understands people, then let's open the skylight and say something, I want the cannon developed by Princess Qi in exchange."

"Cannon?" King Qi seemed to have heard some funny topic.

"That's right, it's a cannon developed by Princess Qi." Que Qingyang sneered.

"Give you the cannon, will you use it? Don't hurt others, blow yourself up first. King Qi said with a smile. King Qi's laughter provoked a burst of laughter from the people present.

As we all know, the cannon was specially developed by Princess Qi, in order to defend the country, how can this be given away casually, isn't that a good weapon for others to fight themselves?

"As long as you are in my hands, are you still worried that Princess Qi will not tell me how to use it?" Que Qingyang sneered. He knows the importance of King Qi to Princess Qi, and everything Princess Qi does is for King Qi.

It can be said that Que Qingyang calculated everything and put Xiahou's family and King Qi under house arrest first, so that he didn't need to use any artillery to attack the army in Que Feiyang's hands, and only needed these few lives to force Que Feiyang to abdicate.

But there is another question, that is, the old emperor, that troublesome spirit, will he watch the throne be taken away by him? Obviously not, then we have to solve that old trouble first.

"Hehe, you're too naΓ―ve to think about it, my wife is different, you can't blackmail her." King Qi sneered. It is not an easy thing to blackmail his Yi'er, and those who dare to blackmail her will definitely pay a painful price, just like the lustful King Han.

"In this case, the prince is unwilling to cooperate, so the only way to do that is to let the prince go back by himself, no matter how Zhaohua loses, I am my imperial sister, and I will not hurt her."

King Qi secretly thought in his heart, sure enough, this Que Qingyang is going to the throne, now, if he doesn't be his hostage, he will definitely use Que Zhaohua's life to threaten, Que Qingyang and his mother's compatriots will not ignore her life, and the old emperor is now abdicated, and the military power has been handed over, I am afraid that it will be very tricky to deal with Que Qingyang.

"Okay, this king will go back by himself, Xiahou's family is a guest in your house, and this king has nothing to worry about." After speaking, King Qi rode his horse and left Que Qingyang's mansion.

"Lord Wang, do we really care about Grandpa Xiahou's family?" Remnant Wind wondered.

This Xiahou family is the princess's maternal grandfather's family, and they are usually very close, if Que Qingyang is really bad, I am afraid that the princess will complain about the princess for a lifetime.

"It doesn't matter, let's go into the palace now to see Que Feiyang, this matter is not so simple, we need to cooperate with Que Feiyang." King Qi said in a deep voice.

"Yes." The remnant wind saluted respectfully.

After a while, King Qi and his entourage came to the gate of the palace, the palace of the Southern Night Kingdom is different from Yunshang, King Qi is a guest, without the emperor's summons, naturally he cannot enter the palace at will, otherwise he can be killed according to the assassin.

When King Qi was hesitating, he suddenly thought of a jade pendant, this jade pendant was when Ling Ruohui first became a miracle doctor, she had treated the Empress Dowager of Nanye Kingdom, and the jade pendant was also given to her by the Empress Dowager at that time. Later, Que Feiyang told Ling Ruoyi that this jade pendant is a royal thing, which is equivalent to the royal gold medal, and this jade pendant is something that every royal family in the Que family has, so with the jade pendant, you can freely enter and leave the palace. This was what Ling Ruoxuan gave him when he was about to come to the Southern Night Kingdom.

Thinking of this, King Qi took out a piece of imperial green jade pendant in his arms, "Lord, this jade pendant ......"

"This jade pendant is the property of the royal family of the Southern Night Kingdom, and with this gold medal, you can enter and exit the palace." King Qi said lightly. Then he raised the jade pendant and said to the officers and soldiers guarding the city tower: "I am Yun Yuqi of Yunshang Country, I ask to meet the emperor of the Southern Night Kingdom, please pass it on." ”

Even if the guards guarding the city didn't see the jade pendant, they would still be very respectful to King Qi, they all knew that the queen mother's illness was cured by Princess Qi, and Princess Qi's cousin married their princess, and the most terrible thing was that Princess Qi was still a friend of their emperor. If you offend this prince, won't you invite death?

"His Royal Highness King Qi, please wait, the little one will go and inform the emperor." The guards of the city glanced down.

Suddenly, the city gate was opened, and the guards guarding the city said respectfully: "His Royal Highness King Qi, our emperor invites you to enter." ”

When King Qi came to Que Feiyang's bedroom, he happened to see Que Feiyang's very weak expression, "What's wrong with you?" King Qi said with concern.

"It's nothing, it's just that I've been feeling a little out of control for the last few days, like a puppet being manipulated, and I'm tired."

"How can this be, could it be poisoning?"

"No, the people who serve me with food and clothing are all henchmen around my father, and with them, I will be fine." After finishing speaking, Que Feiyang fainted......
