Chapter 625: Yuan Guo's Intent
Two days later.
An urgent message reached the palace of the Great Song Dynasty.
"General Qi and Princess Yunshan were forced to jump off the cliff by Yuan's team, and now their life and death are unknown!"
As soon as this news came out, everyone was shocked.
"How is this possible? Is this crazy, little general?"
"It can't be a rumor, is this news true?"
"Even if the little general went to the Yuan country, why did the people of the Yuan country do something to the little general, he had already handed over the peace letter, what does this mean?"
The crowd argued, and the emperor had a headache.
This news came from someone sent by the prince to investigate.
It is said that they just rushed over, witnessed dozens of Yuan royal guards forced the two to a dead end, the two were defeated, in order to avoid being caught, they both jumped off the cliff, afterwards they immediately went down the cliff to search, but the cliff is too high and steep, and the terrain below is even more complicated, and because the sun is less all year round, the ground is wet, and there are many swamp pools, if you want to find the traces of the two, I am afraid it is difficult to climb to the sky.
Still, most people are skeptical of the news.
Because they really couldn't find the reason why the people of Yuan Guo did something to the little general.
Until the prince suddenly said such a sentence.
"Ladies and gentlemen, you may not have heard the news."
He looked at everyone and said in a deep voice, "At that time, it was not only the little general and Princess Yunshan who jumped off the cliff, there was another person who had been following them, and that person was the son of Princess Yunshan, the former sixth prince of Yuan Kingdom!"
Hearing this, everyone immediately gasped.
They have been immersed in officialdom for many years, so they naturally understand the subtext of the prince's words.
So, is it actually to get rid of this child?
After all, as far as they knew, the former emperor personally killed his daughter, and the remaining princes basically died in that war, originally they thought that the six princes had already died, but now it seems that the six princes were rescued by Qi Jingxing and Princess Yunshan.
However, in the end, the two did not escape the pursuit and died at the hands of Hu Yuying.
The orthodox bloodline of the Yuan royal family was finally completely wiped out.
At this time, the court couldn't help but be a lot quieter.
"It's ridiculous, Qi Jingxing actually interfered in the internal affairs of other countries for the sake of his children's old feelings, those six princes are the royal blood of the Yuan Kingdom, and their identities are sensitive, as the general of our Song Kingdom, there are really no rules at all to do this kind of thing! It's crazy!" A minister couldn't help but complain.
The others looked at each other, but few of them came out to protect each other.
Now in this situation, if the matter is true, then even if Qi Jingxing is not dead, I am afraid that after he comes back, he will inevitably be blamed, and maybe there will be some heavy punishment!
The emperor took a deep breath and said coldly: "The authenticity of this matter remains to be discussed, let people continue to find out, in addition, a letter of repair was sent to Yuan Guo to congratulate the new emperor of Yuan State on his accession to the throne, in addition, ask well, why do you want to make a move on the princess of my Song Kingdom, I have promised not to interfere in internal affairs a few days ago, but what I am waiting for is this result?"
Someone immediately had to be ordered to leave.
The news of the new emperor of Yuan Guo's accession to the throne came almost at the same time, but to everyone's surprise, the person who ascended the throne was not Yu Yuying, but the son of King Yuan Guoning, the son of Funing.
It is said that this prince is the only son of King Ning, quite favored, talented, but very low-key, there are very few rumors about it in the outside world, this King Ning has never been interested in participating in political affairs, in order to avoid suspicion, or to avoid becoming the target of the emperor, he invited himself to the fief early.
But just two days ago, the father and son were invited back to the capital, and then King Ning's son ascended the throne as the new emperor.
It's just that no one can say clearly how many things are hidden inside the new emperor's accession to the throne.
This prince is only seventeen years old now, and he was suddenly put on the throne, where can he make any decisions, and the person who really makes decisions is afraid that there are other people.
"Father, the son feels that we must deal with Yuan Guo
Very defensive."
The prince suddenly stepped forward and said earnestly: "This person is the god general of Yuan State, not only is he extremely intelligent, but he is rarely able to lead troops to fight, such a person, if he is willing to be a general, it is fine, but obviously, his ambition is too big, and he will shoot at our people at will, it can be seen that he is not a person who abides by the rules, and now he has controlled the court of Yuan State under the pretense of the hand of the prince of Funing, and the son thinks that he is very likely to have a plot against my Great Song Dynasty in the future!"
"What?"
As soon as the prince's words came out, everyone in the court suddenly couldn't sit still.
"How is it possible, how can he, Yuan Guo, compare with my Great Song? No matter the land, manpower, economy, which aspect can they compare with us? Where did he come from to dare to have a plot against my Great Song?"
"That is, the old minister sees that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a little worried, what ability does Yuan Guo have to plot against my Great Song Dynasty, it's just a joke!"
"Even if he really has an idea, now he is too busy to take care of himself, and the only thing he can do is to please us!"
Looking at the arrogant appearance of this group of people, the prince shook his head in some disappointment, and his face was as secretive as a face.
"Have you all forgotten the identity of this general Ku?"
As soon as these words fell, the sound of the entire hall suddenly disappeared, and even a needle could be heard falling on the ground quietly.
The emperor's face also sank completely at this moment.
The surname Hu is the royal surname of Xun State, another large country that has little contact with the Great Song Dynasty.
Back then, Hu Yuying was the son of the son of the prince of Xunguo, but the prince died early, and the first emperor of Xun intended to pass the throne to Hu Yuying's father, but on the night of the emperor's death, there was civil strife in the palace, and the fourth son of the first emperor, that is, the fourth uncle of Hu Yuying's father, the king of Northern Burma, took the opportunity to seize power, and took out a holy decree, on which it was written that the throne would be passed to him.
He captured the imperial city overnight and ascended the throne the next day.
And the father of Hu Yuying, who was originally thought by everyone to be the emperor, disappeared mysteriously on the night of the death of the emperor, and everyone thought that he had been disposed of by the new emperor, so it was only symbolically mentioned twice, and no one ever mentioned the prince in history again.
It wasn't until two years later, in the Yuan State, that a god who was one enemy and a hundred on the battlefield would be discovered and promoted, and this god general actually called himself Hu, called Hu Lieyun, this surname is very rare, but no one thought much about it at first, until a few years later, the envoy of Xun State came to the imperial city of Yuan State, and recognized at a glance at the banquet that this General Hu was the son of the prince who suddenly disappeared!
The incident instantly shocked both countries.
