Chapter 190: Civil strife in Xiqi
When Huang Feihu escorted Ji Chang to the court, although in the end Huang Feihu led the army to leave because of the Lutai incident, Ji Chang had no intention of returning to Xiqi, and finally arrived at Chaoge. Yin Shou was worried about the matter of Lutai and the ministers at that time, so he didn't care about Ji Chang, but imprisoned him in Jinli, and then he was busy enjoying himself with Daji, so he completely forgot about this Xibohou. Time flies, Ji Chang has been imprisoned for more than six years, according to Ji Chang's hexagram back then, he can return to Xiqi immediately, and now the only thing missing is a key.
Just as Ji Chang was about to return, there were disagreements within Xiqi, and two voices sounded in Xiqi, faintly with the potential to do a big job. These two voices are naturally the eldest prince Bo Yi Kao and the second son Ji Chang, when Ji Chang was leaving, Xiqi was handed over to the two, so these two people were in charge of literature and martial arts, and divided Xiqi's power into two parts. In the past seven years, the civil and military have been noisy and noisy, pushing and shoving, and there has never been peace, but there are two sons pressing, and there is still no time to make a big mess, but with the advancement of seven years, there are more and more sparks in the two camps.
The eldest prince Bo Yi Kao advocated going to Chao Ge to take Ji Chang back with a heavy gift, while the second son Ji Fa wanted to lift the pole and send troops from Xiqi, and echoed with Jiang Wenhuan of the East Bohou and Eshun of the South Bo Hou from afar, and directly laid down the Chaoge City.
On the top of Xibohou's palace, a young man slammed the tea table beside him, shook the teacups on the table, and then shouted loudly: "Big brother! Back then, you strongly suggested sending troops to Xiqi, why are you so timid now?" The person who spoke was Ji Fa, the second son of Xiqi, and the person who listened to this was the eldest son Bo Yi Kao.
Seeing that his younger brother was so out of shape, Bo Yi Kao picked up the tea next to him unhurriedly, took a sip, and finally said without being salty: "The time has not come." ”
Ji said angrily: "Back then, my father also said that the time had not come, and he had to go deep into the tiger's den, but now Yin Shou is immoral, the people of the world are all scolded, the four princes are half of the opposite, and I Xiqi is more powerful than seven years ago, at this time it is really a once-in-a-lifetime time, as long as I send troops to Xiqi, I can become a horn with Jiang Wenhuan and E Shun, and Chaoge has to release my father." ”
Bo Yi Kao glanced at Ji Fa and said mockingly: "There are only two of us brothers here, and the second brother should stop these high-sounding words, is it really an ornament for me as a big brother?"
Ji Fa chuckled in his heart, and there was a trace of panic in his eyes, but he immediately covered it up, his face was red, and he said loudly: "Ru Heyi!" Listening to that tone, it was as if he had been blown up by Bo Yikao.
Bo Yi Kao chuckled at his younger brother's superb acting skills, looked at Ji Fa's eyes with more contempt than before, and said coldly: "Don't pretend here, you show that you are thinking about your father, but no one can see this Manchu Dynasty's civil and military affairs, you just want to take advantage of the military and do your own selfish desires." For the past seven years, you have been very close to the princes, and you have trained a private army for yourself with their strength, don't you know it? Those ministers are even more obedient to you, you advocate raising troops, nothing more than to borrow Yin Shou's hand, so that your father will never be able to open his mouth, so that without his father's edict, you can have the right to fight for the position of Xibohou, and then those immortals in your house will be useful, as long as my eldest prince dies, then this position will naturally fall into your hands, at this time Xiqi has started a war with Yin Shang, even if the generals know that it is you, but for the future of Xiqi have to give in. But my brother, don't you think it's too easy for you to think? Without the military order of my Bo Yi Kao, you can't move a horseman in Xiqi. ”
His plan was told by his brother in one breath, and Ji Fa was in a mess and could only leave in ashes.
After returning to his mansion, Ji Fa began to lose his temper, and the furnishings in the wing room were smashed at once, and after a while, San Yisheng came, saw the fragments of the room, and asked, Ji Fa told San Yisheng about the conversation between him and Bo Yi Kao, and asked: "Sir, what are we going to do now?" Although the eldest brother's words are a bit arrogant, but it is true that as he said, we can't move the Xiqi army without his order. ”
San Yisheng sneered: "Childe, when did I say that I wanted to transfer the troops of Xiqi?"
Ji Fa said to San Yisheng: "I am willing to listen to Mr.'s teachings." ”
"I didn't expect the eldest prince to know so much, but that's okay. Xiqi since the Hou Ye left, the formation is more clear, the power is divided between civil and military, without the order of the eldest prince, I really can't move the army, but I didn't think about raising troops from the beginning. Even if the eldest prince didn't know about our plan and raised an army against business, the second prince and the eldest prince would be open to five or five. However, since the eldest prince sees it so clearly, then he must go to the court song in person, and the second prince can agree to this decision and let the eldest prince go to the court song with a heavy gift, you must know that it is much easier to sing in the court than in Xiqi!"
At the same time, in Bo Yikao's room, Nangong Shi half-knelt on the ground: "Eldest Prince Qi, several treasures have been prepared, and the things to be used for dotting are also ready." Bo Yi Kao helped Nangong Shi up: "Thank you general, I will go to Chaoge to save my father." ”
Hearing that Bo Yi Kao was going to leave tomorrow, Nangong Shi said hesitantly: "I'm afraid the second prince and those civil officials won't agree." ”
The corners of Bo Yikao's mouth curled slightly: "They will definitely agree, and they will not stop it at all." ”
Nangong Shi's pupils shrank, and he hurriedly spoke: "Childe, you can't go to this song! Now the second prince is eyeing him from the side, Yin Shou has no way to go, and the son is going here, it can be said that he will die nine times and live a life!"
"What can I do if I don't go? The second brother's hand has been stretched very long over the years, not only has private soldiers, but also grasps my Xiqi's grain, grass and taxes, although I have a large army, but I can't leave him to act alone, it seems that I underestimated this younger brother at the beginning, with the use of literature to control the military, he played a good chess hand. If he drags on like this, the worse the form will be for us, and the only way to do this is to let my father return. Now that I want to risk myself, the second brother will definitely hold this opportunity firmly, and I will also take this opportunity to determine the outcome of this game. ”
Hearing this, the corner of Nangong Shi's eyes flashed, and he said in a low voice: "Childe doesn't have to be so troublesome, as long as Gongzi gives an order, hundreds of thousands of troops in Xiqi will all listen to Gongzi's dispatch, and it only takes a few days of effort, this Xiqi is Gongzi's, and then send someone back to Hou Ye, at that time, the overall situation has been decided, and Hou Ye has no other way." ”
