Chapter 43: Civil strife in the harem
Chapter 43: Harem Civil Strife
The dragon and phoenix sword are ruthless, how do you know who the prince is? The king's holy decree is really difficult to disobey, and the lives of the nine clans are in the hands of the king?
In the evening, the king immediately ordered Huang Feihu to go out of the city with the dragon and phoenix sword and the elite soldiers to capture the two crown princes.
Beigong Niangniang thought to herself that no matter what, she must keep the two bloodlines of Dashang, even if she sacrificed herself. After all, they are Queen Jiang's best hope for revenge, and this flame of hope must not be annihilated by the ruthless sewage. As the sworn sister of Queen Jiang in the harem, helping the prince escape this catastrophe is the greatest hope of Beigong Niangniang.
So he directly sent his cronies and martial arts generals to personally send the two crown princes out of Chaoge City safely, and the two crown princes temporarily escaped from the most dangerous moment of the swordsmen in the palace city and the grass and trees under the reasonable arrangement of Beigong Niangniang, and the two crown princes fled from Chaoge City to hide everywhere like headless flies, and they didn't know where to go?
So the two brothers wept as they walked and said, "Where should we go?" The two princes were walking on the mountain road, and suddenly, a group of soldiers and horses came below.
So the two brothers hid in the grass on the side of the road, and Huang Feihu and the warriors said, "Wait here while I go up and have a look." So they came up, and the two princes saw that it was General Huang Feihu and said, "General Huang, you are the king who has come to arrest us."
Huang Feihu leaned over and replied: "The minister has seen the two princes, and the minister has been ordered by the king to arrest you, and you will wait for the song to be released."
The eldest prince said: "General Huang should know that my mother was framed by Daji and Fei Zhong's traitorous ministers."
Huang Feihu said: "Empress Jiang was loyal and good in her time, and it was impossible to kill the king."
However, the minister is also the king's order.
The eldest prince said: "Then ask General Huang to take my head to my father and let my young brother go." The little prince cried and said: "Please General Huang take my head back to see my father, I am young and ignorant, my brother still has to do big things, eradicate evil, avenge my mother, I can't do anything at my young age." When Huang Feihu saw such a tragic scene, he couldn't bear to do it, so he said: "The emperor is above, why is it so?"
"If I let you go, I will be guilty of deceiving the king, and if I kill you, it will be a great rebellion against the will of heaven."
Huang Feihu gritted his teeth helplessly and said: "That's it, you better go, I risked my life to release you, don't say that I let you go wherever you go, even if you are captured by the king, don't betray me, otherwise I will destroy the Nine Clans."
One of you went east to find your grandfather Dong Bohou Jiang Huan Chu, and the other went west to report to Xiqi Zhou Xibo Hou Ji Chang. The two princes said goodbye to Huang Feihu.
So I hurried all night. Due to the rugged mountain road, the little prince could not find the direction, and later returned from the original road to find the eldest prince.
So he continued along the way, and when he was thirsty, he drank spring water by the river. Huang Feihu returned to Chaoge and went back to the king of Zhou.
Leaned over and said to the king: "The minister drove a hundred miles outside the city and saw no trace of the two princes, and it was too late to see it."
"So he did not continue to pursue, but came back to repay the king."
King Xuan said: "General Huang, you have worked hard, you go down and rest."
It is said that while the two princes were walking on the mountain path, the two brothers were holding each other with difficulty.
Before they knew it, they came to the mansion of the former prime minister Shang Rong, saw the words on the door, and the eldest prince went up and knocked on the door.
I saw the butler open the door and asked, "Who are you looking for?" So the eldest prince took out a yellow bag.
He handed it to the butler and said, "Please give this bag to the prime minister himself, and he will know."
The butler said, "Wait here for a while, and I'll go in and report to the Prime Minister."
The butler came in and reported to the Prime Minister, "There are two teenagers looking for you at the door of the adults, I asked them who they were, they kept silent, and then a slightly older teenager took out this bag and asked me to hand it over to you personally."
He said, "You see this and you'll know." So when the prime minister looked at the tips, he knew that it was the arrival of the two princes.
So he went out to greet him personally, and it happened that the prime minister's granddaughter Shang Qingjun came in and asked, "Grandpa, where are you going?"
The prime minister said: "There are two princes outside, and I don't know what major changes have happened in the court."
Shang Qingjun said: "Grandpa, you have been retired for many years, and now that traitors and demons are in the way, you should never meddle in the affairs of the court again, and recuperate at home."
The prime minister said: "I am the elder of the three dynasties of the Great Shang, and if I don't ask when I see the two crown princes coming to me, how can I feel at ease?"
Qingjun didn't speak anymore, and the two of them went out to greet the crown prince in person, welcomed the crown prince into the inner room and asked, "Why did the two crown princes come?" The two crown princes said in unison: "Prime Minister, do you know that my father was bewitched by traitors such as Daji and Fei Zhong, and used Jiang Huan's dog slave design to frame my mother, and his death was so miserable." I assassinated Jiang Huan in a fit of rage, and now my father is sending troops to hunt us down."
When the prime minister heard this, he didn't feel good in his heart, and said: "Empress Jiang has lived a bright and upright life, how could she be so framed for her loyalty to the imperial court? Tell Qingjun to go into the kitchen and cook some food for the two princes to eat."
While eating and talking, he suddenly heard a fierce knock on the door, and the housekeeper stretched out the crack in the door and saw a group of officers and soldiers standing at the door, holding torches and knocking desperately on the door, knocking on the door and chattering, the housekeeper came in and reported: "Prime Minister, there is a group of officers and soldiers knocking at the door."
So the eldest prince said, "It must be that the pursuers sent by my father have arrived."
The prime minister immediately ordered Qingjun to take the two princes to the secret room county to hide for a while.
Then he instructed the butler, "Open the door."
I saw Cao Tian and Cao Lei hurriedly come in, and said: "I have seen the old prime minister, the king ordered us to arrest the two princes, have you ever seen the whereabouts of the two princes."
The prime minister replied: "The old man has never seen the two princes since he resigned as prime minister, and at the same time, no matter what happens in the court, let alone the whereabouts of the two princes, you can look elsewhere."
Before the words fell, Cao Lei picked up the yellow bag from the dining table and said: "It is clear that the two princes are hiding in your mansion, and please ask the prime minister to hand over the two princes to our brothers and go back to the errand." When the prime minister saw the tips, there was nothing to debate, and the two princes in the secret room heard it clearly."
So he came out and said: "Let's just follow the general, don't embarrass the old prime minister."
The old prime minister said: "The two princes, you go first, and the old minister will arrive later."
