Chapter 112 112
Although Yan Qi, the Duke of Yan Xiao, succeeded to the throne and became the legitimate monarch, he was only the supreme ruler of Yan in name, and the actual power was all in Qi Yan's hands.
If you really put the core power in the hands of a toddler who has just reached the age of three, God knows what strange things will happen.
The state affairs of Yan Kingdom are basically taken care of by Qi Yan, originally Qi Yan had no intention of seizing this power, in fact, Qi Yan didn't realize that he could win this power, but Yan Aigong Yanxi's will passed the position to Yan Qi.
This forced Qi Yan to get involved in the political struggle, so she tried her best to kill Yan Dan, Concubine Ji and others, after all, if she didn't kill the other party, the other party might kill him, which was completely for self-preservation.
In three weeks, Yan Dan arrived in Guzhu City, and the first thing Yan Dan did when he arrived in Guzhu City, Yan Dan wrote on the side of Qingjun, issued an edict to the entire Yan Kingdom, and sent it to every county guard and land chief in Yan Kingdom, hoping that they could Qingjun with him.
The response in the southern region of Yan Kingdom was more intense, after all, this was the place under the jurisdiction of the Jing family, but in the northern region of Yan Kingdom, it was very bland.
"General, this Yan Dan launched the Qingjun side, do we want to respond?" A general looked at Le Yi, the general of the Yan Kingdom, and asked.
"Although this Yan Qi is a toddler who has just turned three, but he is, Gong, the real successor, although I don't understand, Gong, why is it so confused, let a three-year-old child succeed to the throne, but we have to abide by Gong's will!" This is Le Yi's idea, although Le Yi is not yet a three-year-old child to succeed to the throne, but this is Yanxi's will, and he chose to accept it.
Of course, Le Yi's people in the court also verified the authenticity of the will, if it was fake, Le Yi might support it in the north, although he might not send iron cavalry over, but he would more or less send some troops to support it.
But Yan Xiaogong was the legitimate successor to the throne, and his dispatch of troops appeared to be suspected of rebellion, and his family ancestors did not allow him to be involved in the monarch's civil strife.
In fact, Lejia originally did not belong to the jurisdiction of the Yan State, it belonged to the Zhou Empire, and the ancestors of his family were sent by the emperor to defend the alien races in the north.
And the conditions given by Yan Gong are also very rich, their family has been a general for generations, and at the same time they are named the protector of the country, which is also the hope that Yan Guo can help Lejia in times of crisis.
And Lejia did help Yanguo resolve the crisis when Yanguo was in several major crises, but Lejia has always kept in mind its mission, and they have not entered the political core area of Yanguo and Yanjing to carry out political struggles, but have been stationed in the northern Hebei region to resist foreign enemies.
If Lejia enters the core power of Yanjing Yanguo, maybe the status of Jing Ke will not be guaranteed, in terms of strength, Lejia is the first family of Yanguo, after all, Yanguo Iron Riding is held by Lejia.
And Yan Guo can dominate the north, also because of the existence of Lejia, and now what has broken out in Yan is a civil strife, not the danger of Yan State, Le Yi intends to observe in the north, whoever wins, will be loyal to whom.
And in the lonely bamboo.
Concubine Ji scolded angrily: "I really didn't expect that bastard to pass the position to that little guy in Yan Qi." ”
"Mother, we have arrived at Guzhu, according to the spies, the northern Lejia is not ready to interfere, and the south has responded to us, as long as we send troops to attack, this public position will be mine sooner or later!" Yan Dan said to Concubine Ji.
"I know, you will definitely be able to ascend to the position of Duke Yan in the future, I just can't be angry, I have followed this Yan Xi for so many years, I gave birth to you for him, and I gave up so much for him, I can't compare to that Qi country fox spirit!" Concubine Ji said angrily.
Of course, Concubine Ji was not only angry, but also that the task assigned to her by his mother country, the Central Committee of the Zhou Empire, was going to be postponed......
If Yan Dan succeeds to the throne, then she will try her best to make Yan Dan reconcile with the Zhou Empire, and let the central government of the empire gradually control the Yan State when the time comes, so as to restore the central power of the Zhou Empire.
But Yan Qi's succession to the throne completely disrupted her plan, or set up a difficulty for her plan.
And these days, Qi Xiaobai still writes letters with Qi Yan, in which Qi Yan also tells Qi Xiaobai about his troubles.
Yingqiu, Qi Palace,
Last night, Guan Zhong told Qi Xiaobai about the plan, and today's early Qi Xiaobai said to the ministers: "Perennial Dao, blood love is the most affectionate in the world, and people who have blood love are also close relatives, and my closest relatives are in trouble in Yan State, how can I not help?" ”
Although Qi Xiaobai told the ministers what happened in Yan Kingdom, and at this time, the ministers all looked at Qi Xiaobai, waiting for Qi Xiaobai's words, now what Qi Xiaobai said in the court, no one dared to object, after all, they were afraid that because they annoyed Qi Xiaobai, they were making people's heads fall to the ground.
"I'm going to send troops to Yan Country to help my sister defeat Yan Dan and help my nephew sit firmly in the position of Duke Yan!" Qi Xiaobai said to the ministers.
The ministers were also shocked when they heard this, they didn't expect Qi Xiaobai to choose to send troops to Yan Kingdom......
"But we have an alliance with Yan, and this rash dispatch of troops is not a breach ......of the treaty," a minister stood up and said.
"We are not going to invade Yan Kingdom, but to help Yan Kingdom suppress the rebellion, although my nephew Yan Qi is young, he is the legitimate successor, and Yan Dan is in the Lonely Bamboo City of Yan Kingdom, raising troops to rebel...... Qi Xiaobai said on the side.
Because of the alliance between Qi and Yan, it is definitely not okay to attack rashly, but Qi Xiaobai found a very suitable reason this time, that is, to send troops to Yan State to help Yan State suppress the rebellion, which makes other countries unable to find anything wrong.
After all, this is a fact, there is indeed a rebellion in the Yan Kingdom now, or the heir dispute, and the heir of the heir dispute is still related to Qi Xiaobai, and he is Qi Xiaobai's nephew, which is reasonable as an uncle's helping nephew.
Therefore, Qi Xiaobai's dispatch of troops to Yan State this time was not to invade and break the contract, but to help Yan Guo, or to help his nephew.
In order to ensure the legitimacy of sending troops, Qi Xiaobai also wrote a letter to Qi Yan.
Yanjing Yan Palace.
Qi Yan looked at the letter in her hand: "Sure enough, in the end, you still have to rely on your relatives!" ”
"What's wrong with my sister?" Qi Jie looked at Qi Yan and asked.
"Xiaobai, knowing that I am in trouble, he is ready to gather the army of Qi to help me!" Qi Yan said to Qi Jiao.
"With the help of the Qi army, then it is indeed possible to defeat Yan Dan!" Qi Jiao said on the side.
And Gongsun Cao on the side said: "It's easy to invite Qi Jun in, but I'm afraid it will be difficult to send it away when the time comes......" Gongsun Cao is a Yanchen after all, he thinks more than Qi Yan and Qi Jiao's sisters and brothers.
"Qi country is also my mother country, and now only by relying on my younger brother can I defeat Yan Dan more confidently, right?" Qi Yan said.
