Chapter 6 The curtain slowly pulls up
In the summer of 1219 A.D., at the Kuritai Conference held in the city of Qudiao Alan in Mobei, attended by the Mongol kings and ministers, the third prince of the Mongols, Ogedei, was elected as the new Great Khan, thus ending the vacancy of the Mongol Empire's throne for nearly two years, and Ögedai became the second Great Khan of the Mongol Empire.
At this time, the Western Regions coalition army had already been defeated, and the Mongol prince Jochi was attacked and killed by martial arts masters, and the Mongol Empire was reunited.
The person who assassinated the eldest prince Jochi is now the Mongolian general Guo Jing, Guo Jing has eighteen palms of the dragon, Lu Youjiao passed on the dog stick method of the beggar gang to him, and has entered the realm of first-class masters in martial arts, as well as the "Wu Mu Testament" sent back by the monks of Tianlong Temple, the future Guo Daxia is steadily improving both martial arts and art of war.
Wokotai focused on cultivating Guo Jing according to Yelu Chucai's explanation, the Mongolian Khan didn't know the reason, but out of blind trust in Yelu Chucai, Yelu Chucai guessed that the Jin Emperor was not dead, and it turned out that he was not dead, but Wokotai did not announce this matter, because it would affect his deployment of the western expedition.
At present, revenge on the countries of the Western Regions is the most important thing, there is no need to divert the attention of the people because of a fake death emperor, only to solve the worries can do his best to invade the Central Plains, because Guo Jing made great contributions to the assassination of Jochi and was named the general of the expedition to the west by Wokotai, thus entering the upper echelons of the Mongol army.
The Mongol expedition to the west was only part of Yelu Chucai's plan, and at the same time as the Mongol expedition to the west, it was also necessary to sow discord between the Jin and Song states, so that the two countries would fight endlessly, and each other would have internal friction, and on the Jin side, they could buy officials and persuade the rulers of the Jin state to occupy the benefits of the Song state, while on the Song side, they should support the main battle faction. The emperor of the Song State was encouraged to take advantage of the weakness of the Jin State to restore the old mountains and rivers, but if he wanted the main battle faction of the Song State to come to power, he must first get rid of the Song surrender faction represented by Shi Miyuan, the prime minister of the Song State.
According to the news from the cowardly warriors who were investigating in Lin'an Mansion, His Royal Highness the Prince of Song was extremely dissatisfied with Prime Minister Shi Miyuan, as long as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince ascended to the throne. Shi Miyuan's line will fall, and then the Song and Jin kingdoms will inevitably go to war.
Like the new Great Khan of Mongolia, His Royal Highness King Yi of Lin'an Mansion also set his sights on the crown prince Zhao Hong.
"Did he really say that?" asked Yang Kang incredulously.
"Yes, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that he would exile Prime Minister Shi Cheng to Qiongya Prefecture. Azhu replied respectfully.
Ah Zhu is responsible for monitoring the movements of the crown prince Zhao Hong, and is a miscellaneous servant in the prince's mansion in the East Palace, these words are not a secret in the East Palace, which makes the emperor very speechless, he originally wanted to use his brain to plan a shocking conspiracy to deal with this prince, but he couldn't imagine that the opponent was too weak. I really can't get interested.
He can put people in the prince's mansion, Shi Miyuan will do the same, Qiongya Prefecture is on Hainan Island, it is a wild place, Shi Miyuan should not want to spend his old age there, once this kind of remark reaches the ears of the prime minister of the Song Kingdom, the powerful minister will definitely find a way to get rid of His Royal Highness the prince.
If it was Yang Kang, he would never say such negative words before he became the emperor and took power. On the contrary, he will be respectful to Shi Miyuan and deliberately envelope. Only when there is absolute certainty will it be eradicated in one fell swoop, the crown prince Zhao Hong is undoubtedly killing himself by being so flamboyant and wanton, and the next thing is to see who the powerful minister Shi Miyuan will support to be the next prince.
"I don't think this Royal Highness the Crown Prince is worried, but the one who is worried is Prime Minister Shi Cheng. Lou Shidao analyzed, "Shi Miyuan can be in power in the Song State for a while, and it must not be underestimated. If it was in the past, it might be possible to use the power of the north, and at this time, if you want to win Shi Miyuan's trust, you have to be wronged by the prince. ”
Yang Kang knew that this was Lou Shidao's admonition, and now that he did not have the support of the Jin State, it could be said that there was no source of water and no root. One qiē can only rely on himself, Lou Shidao is afraid that he will not be able to let go of his identity and offend Shi Miyuan, then it will be difficult to become the emperor of the Song State normally, it is okay to rely on force once, but more will inevitably arouse suspicion, the Imperial City Division of the Song State and those royal relatives are not blind, and the cause of death of the former prince Zhao Xun has not yet been closed.
"In a few days, it will be Prime Minister Shi Cheng's birthday, and this king will go to socialize. His Royal Highness King Yi said happily.
This is just a trivial matter, Yang Kang didn't take it to heart, what he cared about was the battle between Zhongnan Mountain Chongyang Palace and Lin'an Mansion Changchun Temple, Yin Zhiping, the head of the Quanzhen Sect, personally came to Lin'an Mansion and preached in the Baopu Lu by the West Lake, and for a time believers gathered, and the West Lake was overcrowded with people, causing a sensation throughout the south of the Yangtze River.
Emperor Zhao Kuan of the Song State decreed that Yin Zhiping was canonized as the true person of Qinghe Xuande, and invited him to the palace to teach Taoism, which was a very high courtesy, which greatly enhanced the prestige of the Quanzhen Sect and Yin Zhiping, Yang Kang went to listen to it once two days ago, and it was really good, the Quanzhen Religion has a deep foundation and a wide range of contacts, not the Changchun View that has just been built can be compared, Yin Zhiping is demonstrating, declaring the orthodox status of the Chongyang Palace, and criticizing the apostasy of the Changchun Temple by the way.
This is an upright conspiracy, and there is no way to resist it!
Changchun Guan Guan Song Defang has no choice but to avoid the edge for the time being, waiting for the future, this is also Yang Kang's idea, there is no need to fight for a while, as long as he becomes the emperor of the Song State in the future, he will naturally fully support Changchun Guan, Song Defang is Qiu Chuji's most loyal outer disciple, and he obeys Yang Kang's words.
In addition, Yang Kang is also concerned about the movements of the Iron Palm Gang, the Iron Palm Gang was originally a sharp weapon in his hands to deal with the Beggar Gang, but now the change of identity has made him lose the control of the Iron Palm Gang, and he is about to start planning again, so it's okay, he is trying to pocket the Valley of Despair and become his private secret garden, as long as he gets rid of Qiu Qianqi and Gongsun Zhi, and of course, Qiu Qianren who doesn't know where.
Qiu Qianren, the leader of the Iron Palm Gang who was remembered by His Majesty the Emperor, was hiding in the Western Regions, several years have passed, and this cat-and-mouse game between him and Zhou Botong is still continuing, Zhou Botong's martial arts and Ying Gu's wisdom have made him have nowhere to hide, but since he came to the Western Regions, the situation has been much better.
The Western Regions is a chaotic place, where Qiu Qianren can hide in the palaces of some countries, can hide in the army, and almost framed Zhou Botong several times, provoking a fight between Zhou Botong and the army, but that damn Aunt Ying can always resolve his plan and let Zhou Botong save the day.
At this time, the leader of the Iron Palm Gang, who was hidden in a temple, missed the scenery of the Central Plains, and his heart was gloomy.
Not far from Qiu Qianren, Zhou Botong and Yinggu were discussing how to force Qiu Qianren to come out, after several years of getting along and cooperating, the two had a very high tacit understanding, and gradually came together, and in the distance, the Mongolian general Guo Jing was about to attack this small country in the Western Regions with a large army.
A qiē has not yet begun, a qiē is happening!(To be continued......
