Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoThe princes were worried and refused to enter Beijing for various reasons. Among them, Fan Zhongxian, the king of Beiding, was the most radical, openly supporting the army and respecting himself. Emperor Zhou was furious and immediately issued an order to cut off the throne of the king of Beiding and punish him for treason.

On April 10, 968 in the Great Zhou calendar, the Great Zhou Emperor took Zhou Congwu as the marshal and sent 600,000 troops to attack the Hexi Corridor occupied by the King of Beiding. The king of Bei'an waited for work and stuck to Nanshan City, and the two sides fought fiercely for half a month, with countless casualties.

On the night of April 25, more than 300 masters with more than three levels of internal strength suddenly mixed into Nanshan City, and the army of the king of Beiding was caught off guard, and officers at all levels were killed and wounded. At dawn the next day, Zhou Congwu commanded the Great Zhou army to attack Nanshan City, and the army of the King of Beiding was defeated, losing more than 60,000 people, retreating to the north of Youzhou, and holding Wuyoucheng by virtue of the mountain situation.

On the night of April 28, more than 50 masters of Waigang were infiltrated in the Beiding Palace. After a night of fierce fighting, the Beiding Wangfu was burned, and Fan Zhongxian, the king of Beiding, was ambushed, and none of the four princes survived. On April 26, Zhou Congwu attacked Wuyoucheng and hung the heads of the king of Beiding and his four princes in front of the battle.

In just one month, the king of Beiding, who had been entrenched in the north for more than 200 years, was wiped out, and the Great Zhou Dynasty completely pacified the northern forces. When the news came, the government and the opposition were shocked. In addition to Zhennan Wang Xu Zhenzhong, the other 4 princes with different surnames were frightened, and hurriedly prepared a generous gift to go to Beijing to ask for guilt.

On May 3, Emperor Zhou once again issued an order to remove the throne of the king of Zhennan and change the title to the Marquis of Zhennan, and the Marquis of Zhennan gladly accepted the decree. On May 8th, 50 masters of Waigang suddenly infiltrated Zhennanhou's mansion and fought fiercely all night, and Zhennanhou's injuries were unknown. When the news came out, both sides vigorously denied it, and Emperor Zhou even issued an order to give many rewards to show his favor.

On May 20, Emperor Zhou ordered four princes with different surnames to return to the fiefdom. The four of them happily received the order, and immediately left Beijing to return to the fiefdom, and soon after they died violently, the princes competed for the throne, among which the princes of Xishan King Ji Chang fought for the most fiercely. 6 princes, 5 killed and 1 wounded, and Princess Xishan also died in ****.

On June 10, 968 in the Great Zhou calendar, Emperor Zhou issued an edict to reprimand Ji Cheng, the fourth son of the King of Xishan, "without a king and no father, take away his king", and with Lu Wushuang as the marshal, he commanded 500,000 troops and attacked the fiefdom of the King of Xishan, Jialinguan. Ji Cheng immediately decided to support the army and raise 200,000 troops, and stubbornly defended the Jialin Pass to resist the Great Zhou army. The two sides fought fiercely for more than 10 days, and the Great Zhou army suffered countless casualties.

On the night of June 22, the Great Zhou army repeated its old tricks, sending more than 300 masters with more than three levels of internal strength, taking advantage of the night to touch into the Jialin Pass, unexpectedly Ji Cheng had already taken precautions, the two sides fought fiercely all night, and more than 300 masters all died in the Jialin Pass. In the early morning of the next day, Lu Wushuang waved his army to storm Jialin Pass, Ji Cheng ordered the heads of more than 300 people to be hung on Jialin Pass, the morale of the Xishan King army rose sharply, and the morale of the Great Zhou army was severely defeated, and they attacked twice, so they had to retreat.

On July 5, Lu Wushuang attacked the city for more than 20 days without any achievements. Emperor Zhou was dissatisfied, changed the commander on the spot, and Zhou Congwu went out again. On the night of July 10th, more than 50 masters of Waigang took advantage of the night to blend into Jialin Pass, and fought fiercely all night, countless officers at all levels of the Xishan King's army were killed and wounded, Ji Cheng was seriously injured, and desperately fled out of the city. In the early morning of the next day, Zhou Congwu ordered a strong attack on Jialin Pass. The army of the king of Xishan was leaderless, and it held on for a day, switching to Chengcheng, and breaking the pass!

The Great Zhou army captured Jialin Pass, drove straight in, attacked the city and plundered the land as if walking on the ground, and pacified the western frontier of the Great Zhou in one fell swoop on July 30, Ji Cheng's life and death are unknown, and his whereabouts are unknown. When the news came out, the princes were silent. For a time, the Great Zhou Dynasty was shocked, and the rebellions in the states died down one after another.

The Great Zhou Dynasty seems to be calm, but in fact there is an undercurrent surging. Emperor Zhou used troops again and again, and the treasury was empty, so he once again ordered to increase taxes. Officials in various localities seized the opportunity to exert their hands and extort money wantonly, causing resentment among the people in various localities; the two prefectures of Youliang and Liang fought one after another, with countless casualties and the destruction of farmland and grain, and refugees from the two prefectures fled frantically, either falling into the grass or being exiled to other states; the princes and princes of various localities were superficially obedient, but in fact they were afraid of the many foreign masters of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and they exchanged ideas and waited for the opportunity.

Zhao Xinming didn't know anything about these major events that happened outside, and after leaving the Zheng Mansion, he hurriedly fled west. Baozhu, Ruizhu, Caiyun, and Caixia chased after them for a while, and saw Zhao Xinming escape from Zheng's mansion over the wall in the upper room, and had no choice but to come back to recover his life.

"What about people?" asked the eldest lady coldly.

The four of them glanced at each other, but no one dared to speak, and Baozhu had no choice but to reply: "Mrs. Hui, the slave is useless, let him run away." ”

"What?" the eldest lady was momentarily excited, and couldn't help but cough violently again.

"Madam, what's wrong with you?" At this moment, Zheng Renxing forced out the poison in his body and also walked over.

"It's my lord. The eldest lady took a deep breath and continued, "I'm fine, what's wrong with the master?"

"'Blood Smoke Luo' has all been forced out. Zheng Renxing looked around and wondered, "Madam, where is Zhao Xinming?"

"Master, the concubine was incompetent, so he ran away. The eldest lady sighed and said softly, "You all go down." ”

"Mrs. Xie. The four of them quickly stood up and withdrew.

"Madam, what's going on?" Zheng Renxing saw the four of them retreating, and hurriedly asked.

"Master, Zhao Xinming is not simple!" the eldest lady sighed, and then said, "This person's artistic conception is definitely not a 'killing realm', I suspect it is likely to be the legendary 'self-only' artistic conception!"

"'Only me'?" Zheng Renxing muttered again, and then asked, "Could it be that this artistic conception is even more powerful than Madame's 'memories'?"

"Sir, you don't know anything. The master of artistic conception seems to be beautiful, but in fact he is the saddest person, obsessed with a state of mind and unable to extricate himself. The 'self-only' realm is different from all other artistic conceptions, and it is not that this artistic conception is powerful, but this realm is based on oneself and is not good at attacking, but it is the nemesis of all artistic conceptions!" The eldest lady paused for a moment and said with palpitations, "Fortunately, Zhao Xinming has only just had the "meaning" and has not yet condensed into the "realm". Otherwise, the punch he just made would have ruined my artistic conception. ”

"It's all to blame the old man for being bad, if it weren't for the old man's reluctance to show up, he would have mobilized people to kill him. Zheng Renxing blamed himself and immediately said, "Madam, please rest assured, I will send someone to block Qingzhou City, and I must dig this person out!"

"Sir, by all means. The eldest lady hurriedly stopped, "If there will be chaos today, the master's top priority is to deal with Hei Ji and Qinghou and stand firm in Qingzhou! As for Zhao Xinming, Lord Zhou will worry about it." ”

Madame has a point. Zheng Renxing pondered for a moment, nodded and agreed.

Just then, a secret message came. Zheng Renxing took the secret report and read it, bowed his head and pondered for a long time.

"Master, what's wrong?" the eldest lady looked at Zheng Renxing and hurriedly asked.

"Hey, ma'am, see for yourself. Zheng Renxing sighed and handed over the secret report in his hand.

The eldest lady took it with both hands, looked at it quickly, and said in astonishment: "Now that the Holy Lord is at its peak, why are they so anxious?"

"Prosperous?" Zheng Renxing sneered, "How many emperors in history can live past a hundred years old?"

"Master, what do you mean?" the eldest lady hurriedly asked.

Zheng Renxing looked at the eldest lady, nodded, turned around and walked out.
