Chapter 62: Hundred Officials Persuade Advance
In Shangshu's left servant mansion, Xiao Yan said to Wu Shuyuan: "Wu Yucheng, do you know how much the widow misses you? ”
Wu Shuyuan frowned and said, "Since you like me so much, why did you still give me to Xiao Baojuan, the Marquis of Dongdu?" ”
"Baby. I was also trying to paralyze Xiao Baojuan. Now, we can get back together. Xiao Yan said with a smile.
Wu Shuyuan thought to herself: Xiao Yan only has the country in his heart, but no beauty.
"Really? Then why did you still accept Ruan Lingying? When she was with the Marquis of Dongdu, she fought with me. Now he continues to fight with me. Wu Shuyuan said angrily.
Xiao Yan thought to himself: If I become the emperor, wouldn't I continue to let Wu Yucheng and Ruan Lingying continue to fight in the palace?
"No, it won't. If you are with the widow, you are a princess. Xiao Yan said with a smile.
"Princess? Why am I not the queen? Wu Shuyuan said unhappily.
She thought to herself: Now Liang Wang Xiao Yan has no wife. If only I could be the main lady. In the future, Xiao Yan ascended the throne as emperor. Wouldn't I be a queen?
Am I going to be able to reach the top of my life in one fell swoop?
Hee-hee.
The next day, Xiao Yan went to Ruan Lingying.
"Your Highness. Why did you go to Wu Yucheng recently? Is it because you knew each other early? Ruan Lingying pouted and said.
She thought to herself: Your Highness is afraid that the old relationship with Wu Yucheng has rekindled. If it continues, Xiao Yan will definitely ascend the throne as emperor. Will he be made queen?
At the same time, Xiao Yan mingled with several concubines of Xiao Baojuan all day long, and his relatives and friends were also very worried about him.
Xiao Yan's friends Shen Yue and Fan Yun, as well as Chen Qingzhi, Cao Jingzong, and Wang Mao gathered together.
"Is the lord fascinated by Xiao Baojuan's concubines? They are so pampered. Could it be that the lord has already planned to become a rich man on this? Shen Yue scolded.
"Not really. I don't see it that way. The lord is an ambitious man. How could he be willing to be a Liang King? Replacing the Emperor of Qi was his goal. Chen Qingzhi said.
"Really? If so, why is the lord so dumb? I think he seems to have forgotten what he was doing in the first place. Fan Yun said in pain.
"The lord is deliberately confusing Xiao Baorong and making him relax his vigilance. In this way, our lord can get the world of Qi country. Chen Qingzhi said.
Speaking of Xiao Baorong, he heard that Xiao Yan was actually addicted to wine all day long, and said to the eunuch Xiao Yunzi: "It seems that I can let the Jiangshan Sheji of the Qi State return to my hands." If Xiao Yan inherits this, his advisers and generals can only serve the imperial court. Haha......"
"Your Majesty, what a clever calculation." Eunuch Xiao Yunzi said with a smile.
"Clever calculation? I must get rid of Xiao Yan. Create a peaceful and prosperous era for our Qi country. As long as Xiao Yan lives, I will be usurped sooner or later. Xiao Baorong said angrily.
The eunuch Xiao Yunzi thought to herself: Why does the slave think that Xiao Yan is really doing a fake show? If he really is so incompetent. How could it be possible to seize the Jiangshan Sheji of the Qi State?
Xiao Baorong thought to himself: I will see when Xiao Yan will make his staff completely cold. Then, I will deal with Xiao Yan.
"Your Majesty is really clever. In this way, Xiao Yan's advisers will abandon him. Eunuch Xiao Yunzi said with a smile.
"You immediately ask people to prepare some gifts, and you must let Xiao Yan's advisors and generals receive them. Especially the three generals Chen Qingzhi, Wang Mao, and Cao Jingzong, as well as Fan Yun and Shen Yue, the two strategists. There must be a generous gift for them. All I need is to get their hearts. Xiao Baorong said proudly.
Soon after, Chen Qingzhi received a generous gift at home.
Chen Qingzhi opened it and saw that it was a golden rabbit.
"My lord, is this pure gold?" Chen Qingzhi asked.
"Yes. Pure gold. This is a gift from Your Majesty to you. Hopefully, you can continue to play for Daqi. Eunuch Xiao Yunzi said.
"That's it. Your Majesty is now on the throne for the first time. It really shouldn't be so extravagant. Otherwise, Wei Chen is worried that His Majesty will repeat the mistakes of Xiao Baojuan. Chen Qingzhi said politely.
"Lord Chen, you are really worried. The minions feel that as long as you can assist Your Majesty. Your Majesty will definitely allow the Qi State to be governed and even dominate the world. Eunuch Xiao Yunzi said.
"Really? I have no talent and no virtue, just an idler who accompanies Xiao Tingshi to play chess and fight crickets. Why do you think so highly of me? Chen Qingzhi said modestly.
"Lord Chen is humble. You have defeated the army of the king of Wei and the king of the city. Your Majesty hopes that you can serve as the crown prince and assist the crown prince. Eunuch Xiao Yunzi said.
"I am the son of a merchant, and I have not read a few Confucian classics. How can I assist the Prince? Chen Qingzhi prevaricated.
He thought to himself: Xiao Baorong is already planning to divide us. If the lord continues to have fun, he may be in danger.
The next day, Chen Qingzhi rushed into Shang Shuzuo's mansion.
Xiao Yan was giving Wu Shuyuan a thrush at this time.
He said to Wu Shuyuan: "Aifei, what do you think?" ”
"No, I can't. His Royal Highness King Liang, you haven't painted the Marquis of Dongdusk yet. Wu Shuyuan said unhappily.
"Really? Do you think the widow is better than the Marquis of Dongdu? How is that possible? Xiao Yan said angrily.
"You're just not as intimate as Dongduhou." Wu Shuyuan said with a smile.
At this moment, Chen Qingzhi rushed in.
"How did you get in?" Xiao Yan said angrily.
He thought to himself: Chen Qingzhi is also becoming more and more unruly. It's actually breaking in now. The widow is not too good for him. Let him be so unruly?
"My lord, why are you so mediocre?" Chen Qingzhi scolded.
"Faint?" Xiao Yan opened his shirt and said with a smile.
"Have you forgotten, my lord? You raised an army for the sake of the people of the world. Why are you so obsessed with wine today? Chen Qingzhi scolded.
Chen Qingzhi then pulled out his sword and faced Wu Shuyuan.
"Stop, Chen Qingzhi, are you going to rebel?" Xiao Yan scolded.
"My lord. I'm not trying to rebel. But, lord. What a disappointment you have made for what you are doing now. Why are you so mediocre? Could it be that Xiao Baojuan's concubine is so beautiful and moving? I'm going to be smitten about you. You don't even know that you are the King of Liang of Qi. Do you know what the people say about you? Chen Qingzhi scolded.
"Discussion? The widow is the king of Liang. Why can't there be a few concubines? What's more, Concubine Ai already has a widowed child. Xiao Yan roared.
"Huh?" Chen Qingzhi was so frightened that he put down his sword.
He thought to himself: Could it be that Xiao Yan was really fascinated by Wu Shuyuan. And even have a child? What a fate.
"Chen Qingzhi, I shouldn't let the lord have no heart to deal with the government. It's my fault. If you think I'm guilty, hack me to death. Wu Shuyuan cried.
Chen Qingzhi took the sword back and said, "Forget it." I'm not going to kill you. In fact, I just hope that the lord can replace Xiao Baorong and be the son of heaven. ”
"No, I can't. The widow is a loyal and good general of the Qi State. How can you betray the Jiangshan Sheji of the Qi State? Xiao Yan said angrily.
At this time, Wang Mao, Cao Jingzong, Shen Yue, and Fan Yun also walked in.
They shouted together: "Please accept the Emperor's concession from the Emperor of Qi and become the emperor." ”
"How can a widow be an emperor?" Xiao Yan said angrily.
