Chapter 93 93. Qi Yan's thoughts
Jing Wen's words made Concubine Ji take a reassuring pill.
Concubine Ji believes that as soon as Yan Aigong dies, this Qi Yan will have no ability to fight with her, after all, Qi Yan's status is so high and her authority is so great, it is all given by Yan Aigong, but when Yan Aigong dies, this power will be automatically withdrawn.
She believes that with Jing Wen's help, this Qi Yan can't play any tricks, and her decades of hard work will not be in vain.
"Concubine Zheng, don't worry, I'll go and prepare for the rest of Yan Aigong now, and promise to let Prince Dan ascend to the throne!" Jing Wen said to Concubine Ji.
"Then there is Lao Shangqing!" Concubine Ji said to Jing Wen.
Qi Yan returned to his palace, and Qi Jie hurriedly asked, "Sister, is this old man dying?" ”
Qi Yan nodded: "You're right, Yan Aigong is dying, these days, my sister is going to arrange something for you to do!" ”
"Sister, you can arrange it!" Qi Jie said to Qi Yan.
"You must hold the military power in the palace, it is best to control the military power of Yanjing, this Yan Aigong is dead, this Yan Kingdom will not be peaceful!" Qi Yan said to Qi Jiao.
Then Qi Yan told Qi Jiu about the conversation with Yan Aigong and the suicide note that Yan Aigong was going to write.
Yan Aigong's edict is destined to make Qi Yan and Concubine Ji opposed, even if Qi Yan gives up the public position to Concubine Ji, Qi Yan feels that this Concubine Ji will not let him go.
After all, over the years, she and Concubine Ji's Liangzi have come to an end, after all, this Yan Aigong has suppressed Concubine Ji in her name many times, and she has suppressed it from time to time.
This is Yan Aigong's trick, just to make Qi Yan unable to get along with Concubine Ji......
"Sister, we can firmly control the military power in this palace, but this Yanjing's military power is controlled by the Gongsun family, and we don't have much intersection with the Gongsun family!" Qi Jie said to Qi Yan.
Qi Yan thought about it, and then said: "This Gongsun family, we must win it over, this is an important ally that can help us defeat Concubine Ji!" ”
Qi Jie was a little puzzled, and only listened to Qi Yan explain: "Gongsun Cao of the Gongsun family is the Marquis of Yan Guocheng, and his status is not lower than this Jing Wen, and the Gongsun family is also one of the big families of Yan Guo, but it has been suppressed by the Jing family all the year round, so the Gongsun family is a little hostile to the Jing family. ”
"You bring a generous gift to visit Gongsun Cao, we must win over this Gongsun Cao, otherwise when that old man dies, I am afraid of us and will die in this Yan country!" Qi Yan said to Qi Jiao.
"I'll do it!" After Qi Jie walked out, Qi Yan rubbed her forehead, to be honest, she didn't want to get involved in this prince dispute, but this Yan Aigong had already written a suicide note to let his son ascend the throne, although she also had the heart to give up the throne to Concubine Ji.
But the enmity with Concubine Ji for many years cannot be resolved in a day or two, and this Concubine Ji has the support of the Jing family, and the support of half of the officials of the Yan State, basically even if he does not let Qi Yan, this Concubine Ji has the ability to win the throne.
Qi Yan felt a tiredness in her heart, what she wanted to do now was to control Yanjing first, let her son ascend to the throne, and gradually persuade the ministers to agree.
And Qi Jie came to Gongsun's house.
"General Qi, why did you come to my house?" It was Gongsun Cao who received Qi Jie, he looked at Qi Jie and asked.
"I'm here to give a gift to Master Hou!" After Qi Jie finished speaking, he gave Gongsun Cao a box, Gongsun Cao took the box and felt very heavy, he gently opened the box and took a look, and found that the box was full of gold, silver and jewelry.
"This general, please come in!" Gongsun Cao hurriedly asked Qi to enter the mansion.
"The general gave me such a heavy gift, it must not be just a cup of tea, let's chat, if the general has anything to say, it will be completed if my grandson Cao can complete it!" Gongsun Cao said to Qi Jiao.
"This, this ......" Qi Jie didn't know how to say it, after all, in fact, from a normal point of view, it seems ridiculous to set up a child less than three years old to be the king of a country, but if he doesn't stand up, his sister and his life are not guaranteed......
The battle for the prince has always been cruel, and he is also a person who has experienced a dispute between the prince, and he actually doesn't want his sister and nephew to be involved in the dispute between the prince, but the suicide note written by Yan Aigong is to pull his sister into the dispute of the prince!
"The general, but it doesn't matter, I can actually guess the general's intention!" Gongsun Cao said to Qi Jiao.
Qi Jie told Gongsun Cao about the suicide note, and Gongsun Cao was very shocked when he heard it, and he didn't expect that the Yan Wai Guild was going to make his child less than three years old the monarch.
Gongsun Cao drank a glass of water: "General, this is not a trivial matter!" ”
"Yes, when Yan Aigong goes, this eunuch will read out the edict, my nephew Yan Qi will definitely ascend the throne, but the ministers will not agree, especially the princelings!" Qi Jie said to Gongsun Cao.
The moment the crown prince Yan Dan was established as the first heir of the Yan State, he began to win over the major officials in the court, and later grew up and gradually participated in national politics, and also had his own faction in the Qi dynasty.
The accurate Jing family belongs to the princelings......
There are two factions in the Yan Dynasty, one is the faction of the princelings led by the Jing family who support Prince Dan, and the other faction is the neutral faction.
This Gongsun Cao has always been at odds with the Jing family, and is often suppressed by the Jing family, although the Gongsun family has also co-opted a small group of people to become a small faction, but he has never dared to oppose the Jing family openly, although he was suppressed by the Jing family, but the policies introduced by the Jing family, he will also agree and depend.
After all, the backstage of the Jing family is the prince of the future Yan Kingdom, and his Gongsun family does not have such a backstage, so he can only swallow his anger and let the Jing family suppress it, weakening the Gongsun family step by step.
Although Gongsun Cao also thought about taking refuge in Yan Dan, this Jing Wen is half of Yan Dan's teacher, and his Gongsun family took refuge, which is basically equivalent to attaching to the Jing family in the future.
He can't do this, this is also the last little dignity of the Gongsun family......
Now Qi Jie told him Yan Aigong's edict, which made him feel that this was an opportunity to turn over, but at the same time, this opportunity to turn over was very risky.
Although his Gongsun family runs its own small force, it cannot be compared with the Jing family at all, and the power controlled by his Gongsun family is also in the city of Yanjing, and the army under his control is 50,000 standing troops.
Jing Ke of the Jing family controls 100,000 elites in Yannan, and there are 30,000 deadpools in his hands, and the 300,000 generals of the Yanbei army are also friendly with the Jing family.
So at this time, Gongsun Cao was very hesitant, he wanted to agree to this Qi Jiao, but the risk after agreeing was particularly great, he picked up the tea and drank it one by one...... I was thinking about how to choose.
