He and Yin Taohong were originally lovers, and they had a deep love for each other. They had secret meetings in the palace until they became pregnant. Zhao Yongmeng would never believe that King Xian was his son.
As for Yu Gui, it was another of his favorite works, a bastard who had sex with prostitutes. He fostered this bastard in the homes of border residents and asked experts to teach him martial arts and the art of war since he was a child. On the 14th day of Yu Gui, he joined the Northern Army, and on the 18th day of the Jin Dynasty, he secretly looked after him and supported him all the way.
Zhao Yong took the throne in a bloody manner, so he killed all the members of the royal family. He and King Qi were the only ones who survived.
What's ridiculous is that Zhao Yong actually handed over the fifth military camp in the capital of Gyeonggi Province to him. With this identity, he can do more things.
In the twenty-seventh year of Baoqing, he conspired with the Turks to devise a plan. This plan was only to help Gui become famous in the first battle.
Sure enough, after Yu Gui "defeated" the Turks, Zhao Yong was overjoyed and made him the general of Zhenbei. So far, he had collected 300,000 Zhenbei troops without spending a single soldier.
Everything is in his plan, but everything is not in his plan.
The passage of time has brought about more heroes. The country under Zhao Yong's rule has two capable men, one is the late prince Zhao Jingqiong, and the other is Sheng Qing, the eldest son of the Sheng family.
These two people are one civilized and one military, one monarch and one minister. They are wise and clear. Given time, he will never be their opponent.
So, he accelerated his layout.
When Emperor Baoqing was in his middle age, his temperament changed drastically. He believed in Tianji Taoism and gradually regretted his past actions. He devoted himself to cultivating Taoism and ignored everything.
If you don't act, ghosts will emerge, and the beauty of power will make those who peek in the dark ready to take action. Empress Lu passed away, and the Qin family took charge of the middle palace. She seemed to be concerned about the prince, but in fact she had secretly planned it behind her back.
In fact, he had already guessed Zhang Hua's motives when the Qin family re-appointed her. Imperial doctors have always been the best accomplices in forcing a woman to conceive, murder, and frame up.
Very good, the snipe and the clam fight, and the fisherman benefits.
When my father was alive, he always loved to watch shadow puppet shows. A dozen servants held strings to manipulate a drama of love, hate and hatred. What he wants to do is to be the one holding the thread.
Baoqing thirty-three years, winter.
Emperor Baoqing occasionally contracted wind and cold and asked a doctor for advice. He got news from Yin Taohong that the Qin family would join forces with Zhang Hua to add something to the emperor's medicine, and then blame Qian Zongfang.
He felt happy and started to take action.
Liu Ran, the leader of the Shenji Battalion, belongs to the prince, and he had planted hidden stakes around Liu Ran a few years ago. Only if he dies can the prince's arm be cut off.
He ordered someone to take action and left a letter with the Turks in his study to frame him. This plan was quite successful.
Then, he secretly raised the third palace of the five military camps to force the palace, and even secretly arranged for the Turkic cavalry to enter the capital from Humen Pass. This is no different.
All they had to do was wait for Qian Zongfang to deliver the bowl of poisonous soup.
However, after all calculations, he miscalculated two people. One of them was Zhao Jingqiong. His long-term experience with the Lords made him keenly aware of the changes in the situation, and he immediately recalled Sheng Qing from far northwest.
After Sheng Qing received the secret edict, he was very cautious. He sent 200,000 to suppress the Western Army, left 170,000 to garrison outside the pass, and brought 30,000 personal soldiers to Beijing to defend the imperial city. It only took six days to reach Shanhaiguan at a flying speed. .
After he got the news, he was shocked.
In a twenty-day journey, 30,000 people were unified into one, traveling day and night, in only six days. What a discipline and speed. The remaining 170,000 people are enough to hold off the Zhenbei Army and the Turkic cavalry with one against a hundred.
It is foreseeable that if he starts to cause trouble, he will definitely be defeated. Since we can't reach the top in one fell swoop, let's divert the trouble to the east when the tide is rolling.
Sheng Qing Wu Zhao led troops to the capital, which was regarded as conspiracy, and he also knew that the Qin family had a back-up plan waiting for Zhao Jingqiong.
In this way, a secret memorandum fell quietly on Zhao Yong's pillow. Zhao Yong had just been rescued from the gate of hell. He was already furious and suspicious, and immediately ordered a search of the Prince's Mansion and suppressed the Sheng family army.
As the saying goes, a man who is petty is not a gentleman, and a man who is not poisonous is not a husband.
The Sheng family is full of loyal and righteous people. Qian Zongfang murdered his biological mother and has superb medical skills. How could he let these people go
The chess pieces have already been placed, and they only need to be moved gently.
Slaughter the Qian family, destroy the Sheng mansion, depose the prince, defeat Zhao Yong... a plan that kills many birds with one stone, he hides behind the queen and plays with the chess pieces to make a fuss.
After Zhao Yong deposed the crown prince, he secretly regretted it.
In order to ward off the emperor's suspicion, he wrote a letter of resignation to the commander of the Five Military Palaces.
Now that the net has fallen apart, it is necessary to weave it again. At this moment, we should cultivate our moral character and wait for good opportunities to plan for future action. Otherwise, if you miss the mark, you will be doomed.
Gu Qingguan sat down in his chair, his face as pale as paper. All the hatred and pain had turned into dark and obscure eyes, leaving only wonder.
If King Lao Su hadn't said it himself, she wouldn't have believed that what the man in front of her said was true.
What kind of man is this, who has established imperial power and hegemony with the support of thousands of innocent people.
The person who died in vain, who was implicated, who was wronged, who was resentful, and who was unwilling to do anything, is just a stepping stone to heaven in the end. This person is really like an animal.
There was not a drop of tears in her eyes. Eight years later, these tears had long since turned into hatred, taking root and sprouting in her heart.
At this moment, she wished she had a knife in her hand, pierced his body fiercely, and then used his blood to pay homage to those who were killed.
However, it was not time for her yet. This snake was so hidden and could do more than just that.
"I'm afraid that a large sum of money from the Gu family will also fall into your hands."
"That's right!"
King Lao Su smiled proudly, "Old King Qi is too stupid, thinking that he can rebel with money, but he doesn't know that money is only one of them, and the key is whether the fist is strong or not. Therefore, I can only reluctantly take over. Why? , are you feeling distressed?"
"How do you know that the Gu family has an incredible wealth?"
Old King Su smiled ghostly, "My eyes are spread all over the country, and even the Zhenxi Army can get in. What's the difficulty in a small Qi Prince's Mansion? How can the old guy escape every move he makes? Show me the king’s discernment.”
Gu Qingguan's heart tightened, and something flashed through his mind, "So, the prince was poisoned and was hunted down, and it was all your fault?"
"To be precise, it should be Liu Jian who did it, and I just helped behind the scenes. But Liu Jian is really useless. I gave him so much money, so much money Soldiers and horses, he didn’t even kill Lao Ba.”
"So, you used his wife and children as military prostitutes?"
"If you don't succeed, then you will become Ren. He will draw the attention of the emperor and the court to the northwest, and grab the Zhenbei Army by the throat. How can I tolerate him?"
Gu Qingwan understood immediately.
After Tinglin was poisoned, the emperor ordered all caravans to be purged, cutting off his financial resources. In order to vent his personal anger, he made this evil move.
Even the blood in the bones of a person who bares his teeth and is determined to retaliate is cold. Qingguan took a deep breath and said, "Who is Eunuch Li, and why is he willing to sacrifice his life for you?"
"Good question!"
King Lao Su put down his wine cup silently, stood up, took two steps, cut his hands behind his back, and wrote lightly: "He is Li Chengyi's apprentice. When he entered the palace as a child, he offended a certain nobleman, and Li Chengyi saved his life."
Qingguan suddenly realized.
Since it is a favor, it must be repaid sooner or later. Eunuch Li had served the emperor for decades with great loyalty and an extraordinary master-servant relationship.
The emperor died suddenly, his heart was broken, and there was only one way to die. However, when the body dies, the heart is unwilling to accept it, and must leave something to warn the world.
I wonder what the scene will be like between the master and the servant when Eunuch Li and Emperor Baoqing meet on the road to Huangquan. Will they forget their grudges with a smile, or turn into enemies
She didn't know it, and she didn't want to know it. When everything was revealed to the world, Qingguan felt that everything was lifeless.
People have only one life, and the imperial power is supreme and controls everything in the world; the lives of the people are like ants, and they cannot control their life or death.
Their fate is that of a shadow puppet that has been pulled up on a string. The difference is that they are acting out their own joys and sorrows, life and death.
She suddenly understood that without Su Ziyu's arrow, she would not have survived the winter of Baoqing's thirty-third year.
As early as when the Qian and Sheng families served the prince, their future fate was destined. There was no other choice for her fate. And Emperor Baoqing, the deposed prince, the Sheng family, the Qian family, Eunuch Li... could not escape the fate. Although some of them looked down on the world, some were talented and strategic, some served the emperor loyally, and some repaid kindness... In the end They all arrive at the same destination by different paths, and they are all chess pieces on the chessboard of King Su, and he is
Puppet in hand.
Is it sad
How sad!
So whose puppet is King Lao Su? Qingguan was so grief-stricken that she calmed down. She looked deeply at the executioner who manipulated the lives of thousands of people in front of her, her eyes so intense that they seemed to ooze blood.
Suddenly, a singing sound came to her ears, but it didn't sound like singing. It was like a slogan or a sutra. Qingguan listened carefully, and then she heard someone calling two people's names.
"The Crown Prince... Zhang Yunlong... Zhang Yunlong... The Crown Prince!"
Something seemed to well up in her heart. Qingguan's eyes became hot and tears came out of her eyes. She stood up slowly and walked to the side of Old Su Wang. She looked into the boundless darkness and said softly: "Old Prince, listen, this is deafening. Are you afraid of the cry?"
"Afraid?"
King Lao Su laughed loudly, with tears in his eyes, "I have never experienced the word fear in my life. I don't even think about whether I will go to heaven or the Asura hell after death. Little girl, do you think I will be afraid?" "
Gu Qingguan's eyes changed.
"What's more, I still have you in my hand."
King Lao Su gave a sharp look and sneered: "Little girl, don't think about being too beautiful. Although that person's surname is Sheng, the Sheng family's army has long lost its courage. If you want to block my son's cavalry, I'm afraid it will be difficult. If you don't believe it, we will wait." ”
Gu Qingguan was stunned for a moment, then suddenly made fists with both hands, and said contemptuously and coldly: "In this case, Old King Su has no way out. I can guarantee that even if he dies, he will still stop these 300,000 cavalry. Because, in this imperial city, Have me!" I am his only relative in this world, and he will shed his last drop of blood to build an iron wall for his relatives.
