PS: Chapter 2, ask for a monthly pass! The lily sauce in the back is about to catch up.,It's terrible O(∩_∩)O~.

The Qi Palace was dark and silent, and when Gao Zhang, Bao Mu and other ministers walked in the huge palace, they seemed to be able to hear the echo of their footsteps.

The moon was already hanging low on the high wall, and countless guards were patrolling outside the palace of the Marquis of Qi, and the guards were also pacing outside anxiously, and when they saw them coming, they hurriedly saluted: "The two secretaries are finally here!" ”

A strange chill hit their hearts, Gao Zhang and Bao Mu glanced at each other, and they both had a premonition that something was wrong. Qi Hou's body has not been very good after being frightened and cold in the Snow Field War, and this time Guoxia and Gao Wupi lost in the Wenshui War, which made him suffer a huge blow and had to leave the front line and return to Linzi to recuperate. Who would have thought that a few days ago, Lu Guo sent someone to send half of the blood-stained clothes, and at the same time arrived with the news that Gongzi Yangsheng was tried and beheaded!

Although Qi Hou didn't love Yangsheng, when he heard the news at first glance, he was still so angry that he fainted, after all, it was his own flesh and blood. Since then, he has been in a state of not being very conscious, Gao Zhang and Bao Mu are nervous, and they dare not leave the Qi Palace easily, although this old monarch is stubborn and self-serving, and often does foolish things, but if he is suddenly absent, for everyone, it is tantamount to the building will fall.

At the same time, this is also a great opportunity for Tuo Gu to be ordered, neither of the two wants to fall behind, they only saw Qi Hou in the first half of the night, accompanied him to say a few words, and planned to squint for a while in the second half of the night, who expected to close their eyes, and was woken up.

"What's wrong with you?" Gao Zhang asked, holding the plow.

Limi sighed: "I passed out again, and I haven't woken up yet!" ”

They stopped talking nonsense and hurriedly entered, and the brass candlesticks in symmetrical positions at each end of the hall were brightly lit, filling the room with light and isolating the dark sky outside. Qi Hou was lying on the bed with a curtain hanging, his eyes closed, and his breath was like a gossamer. The medical officer and Wu Zhu were beside her, and the Marquis of Qi's wife, Yan Ji, had her hair scattered, as if she had just woken up from her sleep, but there was no sleepiness in those eyes, and she was now sitting at the end of the bed without saying a word, wiping her tears and sobbing.

"Your Majesty...... Your Majesty? Gao Zhang's tone was full of sadness, and under his soft call, Qi Hou finally opened his cloudy eyes.

"You're coming?"

Yan Ji and Zhuren helped Qi Hou to get up, he swayed like a decayed tree, and supported the bedpost with one hand, so that he stabilized his body, but he had no strength to speak, so he could only keep waving to the medical officer.

"Dan Pill, quickly give you Dan Pill!"

The entrance of the little red pill that exuded a mysterious aroma, Qi Hou seemed to be in a lot of spirits,

"Gao Zheng stays, and the rest go out."

His words are undoubted, Yan Ji wanted to speak and stopped, wiped her tears and left, she is the daughter of Yan Guo, the wife of Qi Hou, was forced by Qi Hou to marry Sima Sui Tho by force, and has been favored by the king for a long time, but it is a pity that her son died ten years ago, and then there was no output, so he was gradually not favored. But it did not affect her status, because Yan has always been one of Qi's staunchest allies.

As for Bao Mu, his little eyes glanced at Gao Zhang enviously, but he still followed Yan Ji away,

And in the house, Qi Hou also knew that his fate was not long, and he used his last trace of clarity to begin to announce the edict.

"If you are lonely, you can't do anything to the eight gods, so that the gods are angry, and the people will be harmed, and the sin of loneliness will ......"

"Qi Gongzi, young and intelligent, deep and widowed, will be able to inherit the business of the prince, can be established as the prince, that is, the ...... of the Marquis of Qi"

"Your Majesty!" Remembering this, Gao Zhang's pen stopped, and he bowed his head heavily, and strongly persuaded: "The country depends on the long monarch! ”

……

Angry, painful, and puzzled, Qi Hou's emotions were clearly written on his face, and his thin hand pointed at Gao Zhang: "Ruzi and Guoxia buried the army of Qi in Wenshui, I haven't punished Ru Erqing, and let you continue to govern the country, and follow the edict, you, you dare to disobey the widow?" Is it a rebellion? ”

Gao Zhang Ji is like pounding garlic: "The loyalty of the minister, Haotian can be learned!" Gao Wupi lost the sin of his teacher, Gao Zhang Wan's death could not be redeemed, but now Qi is uneasy at home and abroad, Gongzi Tu is only seven years old, and I am afraid that he will not be able to inherit the great cause. If the Gao soldiers are still there, and the country is still in Linzi, I should be called, but now there are only 2,000 soldiers left in the city in the Gao family, and there are not many soldiers in the office. ”

"Although I have many sons, they are all immodest children, but they are the only ones who have won my heart." Qi Hou beat his chest, his words came from the bottom of his heart, he was very fond of the young son Gongzi, and was even willing to put down the dignity of the monarch and lie on the ground to be his son's mount, so he knocked out his front teeth and was still very happy.

But Zhu Qing was worried that Tu would become the crown prince, and he had long proposed to choose the elder and virtuous among the princes to be the prince. The Marquis of Qi couldn't get his wish, so he hated the matter of mentioning the prince, so he said to the princes: "Have fun in time, are you afraid that the country will not have a monarch?" "This matter has been delayed until now, and finally it can't be dragged on.

Gao Zhang persuaded hard: "Tu's mother Ruizi was originally cheap, and Tu was young, so he would be despised by the countrymen, and the king forcibly made him the prince, but it hurt him." ”

Qi Hou lay on the bed and gasped, his energy was exhausted after a fire, Gao Zhang could only serve him to take another pill, and this conversation that would determine the fate of the future Qi State could continue.

"I also know Gao Qing's difficulties, and I blame the widow for making the Qi State look like this, and it is indeed inappropriate for Tu to succeed to the throne......"

Finally, knowing that he didn't have much time and had no chance to pave the way for Gongzi Tu, Qi Hou had a little loosening, and he knew that if Chen and Bao were summoned to support Gu, his idea of letting Gongzi Tu succeed to the throne should come true, but after all, the two of them were surnamed Qing, and Qi Hou couldn't trust them.

So next, in order to have the best of both worlds, he came up with an idea that made Gao Zhang jaw-dropping.

"Lone can listen to you, first choose a loyal prince as the crown prince, but he must follow the law of brother to brother, and the next heir must be Gongzidi!"

This is the story of Wu Wang Shoumeng ordering Zhu Fan to succeed to the throne first, and then give way to his younger brother Ji Za after his death, but Gao Zhang didn't think that the sons of Qi would do this, and then I am afraid that it will be another Zheng Boke Duan, or the tragedy of Lu Huan Gong killing his brother Lu Yingong.

No matter what, it is better than supporting a young monarch to succeed to the throne and causing the Qi State to repeat the rebellion of the five sons after the Duke of Qi Huan! In order to keep the Qi country from chaos and the Gao family not to die, he could only agree.

The monarch and the minister each took a step back and began to discuss the candidates. In addition to the dead Yangsheng, the son of the Marquis of Qi also has Shou, Ju, Qian, and Tuo, and the two of them picked and chosen, and finally selected the most honest son Shou as the king!

The edict was quickly drafted, and Gao Zhang, under the supervision of the Marquis of Qi, stamped the monarch's seal on it, and breathed a sigh of relief after drying it. Next, you only need to call Gongzi Shou to Erti for a face-to-face life, and then announce to the people of the courtiers, and then banish the Gongzi to the remote Laidi, and the succession of the throne of Qi can be passed smoothly!

"The national affairs are entrusted to Yanzi, the palace precautions are handed over to Dongguo Shu, Sima Sui Tho is outside to command the army, the Jin Kingdom will not dare to cross the river to attack me, and the widow will sit back and relax......"

Qi Hou began to talk nonsense, shouting the names of a bunch of dead people, it was his golden age as a king, but unfortunately it was long gone. The current Qi country has neither strong soldiers nor good generals, it can be described as stormy, and Gao Zhang is not confident that he can go far with such a Qi country.

He opened the door to let the healers and warlocks in, it was impossible to expect their strange methods to renew the life of Qi Hou, he only hoped that the monarch could hold out for a few more days, at least let the new monarch gain a firm foothold, let him preside over the Qi Zhao peace talks, no matter how big the price was, redeem Guo Xia and his son first.

Just as Gao Zhang's front foot was about to step out of the door, he heard Qi Hou behind him murmur again: "Send someone to kill Ziyang, a disciple of Bian Que in the prison!" Lone doesn't want to die before him and be laughed at by him! ”

Is this another fate, or is it a dizzy nonsense? Gao Zhang didn't know, he nodded to the guard Limi, this matter is up to him, and his next task is heavy!

……

"Gao Zi left, and after he left the palace, he went directly to Gongzi Shou's mansion......"

Bao Mu listened to the whispers of his cronies, his face was gloomy, he waved his hand to let him retreat, stroked his beard and thought about it.

Although the Marquis of Qi was very angry at the defeat of the country and Gao Erwenshui, he finally chose to trust Gao Zhang, it seems that the new monarch has been finalized, and Gao Zhang went to Gongzi's birthday to take him into the palace and establish him as the prince.

"Oh, the merit of establishing the king, the Gao family can have a generation of wealth again."

Bao Mu was very unwilling in this regard, but he was helpless.

"I'm right, no matter how loyal Bao Zi is to state affairs, it is impossible for the monarch to trust his surname."

"Who!" Bao Mu was shocked and asked with his sword.

In the shadow of the curtain, the person who spoke revealed his true face, dressed in a soapy coat that concealed people's ears, with a pointed chin, a high nose bridge, and a slightly upturned sagittal beard, it was Qi Qing Chen Qi who was supposed to defend Dong'e and Pingyin against the attack of the Lu people!

"Chenzi, why are you here?" Bao Mu was startled, and jumped up directly from the couch, the place where he was was in the Qi Palace was the official office, how did Chen Qi come back, and how did he get here?

His mind was in turmoil, could it be that the Great Wall had also been lost? Commander Zhao drove straight in?

"With my son guarding over there, it will be fine." Chen Qi smiled cutely, but his tone was urgent: "The most urgent thing in Qi now is not external troubles, but internal worries. Now, is Baozi still going to sit here and wait to die? ”

Bao Mu was stunned: "What do you mean by this?" ”

Gao Zhang has won the trust of the monarch, and he will have great achievements in establishing Gongzi Shou as the crown prince, and the next twenty years of ruling will be firmly occupied by the Gao family. When he stabilizes the situation, redeems the Zhao clan and the Gao clan soldiers, and then puts pressure on us in the name of righteousness, you and I, as different surnames, will have no chance. ”

Bao Mu smiled dryly: "I don't know what opportunity Chen Zi is talking about. ”

"The secretary of a great country, ranked among the best ministers, Uncle Bao is willing to live under Guan Yiwu and the country and Gao all his life, is Bao Zi willing to do the same?"

Bao Mu gritted his teeth, of course he was unwilling, his family worked hard for his son Xiaobai to return to the country and succeed to the throne, without Uncle Bao's teeth, there would be no Huan Gong's hegemony, and there would be no achievements in Yiwu. But the Bao clan has been tepid for more than a hundred years, and finally thirty years ago, his father Bao Wenzi and Chen Wenzi united to expel the ruling Erhui, which was ranked among the Qing clans.

But the fruits of this coup d'état, at the instigation of Yan Ying, fell into the hands of the Marquis of Qi and the exiled countries and masters. The Guo clan and the Gao clan have been revived, but his Bao clan is still like that, his father Bao Wenzi is the oldest secretary, over ninety years old, but he can only condescend to the national high school! Just because of the old practice of the State of Qi, Zhengqing can only be served by the state and the second guard of the high school.

Of course, Bao Mu was not convinced, the strength of the Bao clan was not weak, and it was also a big clan of five hundred times, but he lacked the courage to fight for it......

But the people in front of him have no shortage of conspiracy and determination.

Chen begged to hold Bao Mu's hand, the serpent's letter hissed, and he said sincerely: "Many years ago, my grandfather Chen Wenzi and Bao Wenzi jointly expelled Luan and Gao and shared their rooms, which is why we are today. Now that the monarch's life is not long, the building will fall, and the strength of the Gao family has been greatly damaged, but he occupies the position of the ruling party, which is not in line with the name. I got the news that he would harm Bao Zi on the day he became the crown prince, so it is better to take advantage of the undecided situation and strike first! ”
