"Quack ......"
A burst of baby crying suddenly sounded, and Queen Zhao, who was about to fall off the baby, suddenly hesitated.
Motherhood made her heart unbearable for a while, and at this moment, King Zhao seized the opportunity and suddenly reached out and grabbed the thirteenth prince in the hands of Queen Zhao.
Empress Zhao was shocked, but it was already too late at this time, and King Zhao's strength was so great that she was not allowed to snatch it at all.
Holding the thirteen princes in a bad place, King Zhao's face suddenly turned cold, and he said to the guards: "Look at the queen, no one is allowed to see her without my order." ”
"Yes, Your Highness." The black-armored soldiers immediately closed the door of the side hall, leaving only Empress Zhao's hoarse cry.
King Zhao walked outside the door and said to the generals behind him: "You go to the city now immediately to find a nurse for the thirteen princes, without delay." ”
The general responded with a fist clenched and left with a group of men.
At this time, another group of cavalry stopped in front of him, and a general got off his horse and said, "Your Highness, Concubine Zhen and the others probably ran away with something from the sky." ”
King Zhao looked up at the sky at this time, and between two huge objects slowly floated through the sky, and under the huge sphere were some women in exquisite costumes.
"This must be the hot air balloon in Yuan Liang's mouth, hmph, this King of Qi is really not a simple opponent, but Yuan Liang said that this hot air balloon can't fly far, you immediately take a team of people to chase it now." King Zhao looked at the balloon in the sky and said.
The general took the order and left, and after a while, another general came back to report and said: "Your Highness, there are Qingzhou merchant ships leaving at Chang'an Wharf, and the people on the wharf say that these merchant ships have transported many soldiers and officials away. ”
"Qingzhou Merchant Marine." King Zhao's brows furrowed.
Now his attitude towards Xiao Ming is a little complicated, because at present, Zhao Di's muskets and artillery are all purchased from Qingzhou, this time the King of Qi sent people to the rescue, if he is too deeply offended, this arms business will naturally not be able to do.
However, thinking that they had now mastered the method of forging arquebuses, and that they had captured a lot of artillery from Chang'an City this time, he said: "You also sent a pair of men and horses to chase along the riverbank. ”
"Yes." The general took the order and left.
At this time, King Zhao glanced at the hot air balloon, and then at the direction of the dock, he couldn't help but hesitate a little, he was now a little unsure whether this concubine Zhen followed the boat or followed the hot air balloon.
It's just that in this way, the pursuers he sent can only pursue them in two directions.
Looking at the hot air balloon again, King Zhao walked towards the stone bridge, Xiao Wenxuan died, but before the thirteen princes ascended the throne, a state funeral must be held for Xiao Wenxuan, which is a royal etiquette that cannot be abolished.
And after the state funeral, they were able to hold the enthronement ceremony, when the thirteen princes ascended the throne and began his rule over the Great Yu Kingdom.
He naturally didn't bother to ask about these complicated etiquette, but he had already sent someone to gather the officials of Chang'an, and with these people, Xiao Wenxuan's funeral could be successfully completed.
Thinking that he would be able to control Chang'an immediately, King Zhao's face became more and more pleasant.
At this time, the Qingzhou merchant ships carrying the escape from Chang'an City had already traveled a long distance along the rapids.
Looking at the beacon fire in Chang'an City from afar, Luo Quan and Fiji were in mixed moods.
"This is really a national disaster, a shame for the Great Chongqing State." Fiji looked sad and spoke in a somewhat low tone.
Luo Quan's mood was also depressed, and he said to Fiji: "Now that this is the case, no matter how much you sigh, you still think about how Qingzhou told Xiao Ming about this edict." ”
"Not only that, so many courtiers came over, and it was also a problem to get to Qingzhou." Fiji shook her head.
Luo Hong said at this time: "Your Highness has just passed the government reform recently, and there is a big vacancy in this domestic official position, maybe Your Highness welcomes it, but it's just ......."
"What's just ......," Luo Quan asked.
"When I was in Qingzhou, Luo Xin told me that in fact, His Royal Highness does not dislike officials outside Qingzhou, but if you want to serve in the officialdom of Qingzhou, you must study at Bowen College and pass the relevant exams." Luo Hong said.
Fiji nodded, "This Yue'er told me that since he has entered Qingzhou, he naturally has to follow the customs of the country, not to mention that the current His Royal Highness is about to become His Majesty." ”
Saying this, the expressions of the three of them were a little gloomy.
Luo Quan said: "Now that King Zhao occupies Chang'an, he will inevitably support the thirteen princes to succeed to the throne, if so, His Majesty's edict is useless." ”
"Not only that, but the letter of nomination signed by His Majesty King Qi is still in the imperial study, and King Zhao can take this to tell the world that he will not recognize the emperor's current edict."
Luo Hong said: "In fact, there is no point in leaving an edict without an edict, now the world is in chaos, each has its own affairs, even if there is no edict, the king of Qi is also the royal orthodox bloodline." ”
"Well, you're right, now this situation says that the edict is true or false." Fiji said, "After waiting for Qingzhou, we will discuss this matter with the King of Qi." ”
While the three of them were talking, the news of the chaos in Chang'an was quickly transmitted to all parts of the Great Chongqing Kingdom.
This time, the three princes and the four princes fled separately, and on the way to escape, they publicized the news of the prince's rebellion, and the people in the royal land were panicked for a while.
And Li San's news arrived in Qingzhou three days after the secret guard's 800-mile expeditious.
When he opened the secret letter from Chang'an, Xiao Ming's heart fluctuated - the Great Chongqing Kingdom was in chaos!
"Your Highness, what's wrong?"
Pang Yukun, Zhan Xingchang, Niu Ben and others were all in the Qi Palace, and the changes in Xiao Ming's expression were seen by them.
Xiao Ming handed the secret letter to Pang Yukun, "Look at it for yourselves." ”
When the three of them heard this, they immediately got together and looked at it, and when they learned that the prince had killed the king, and King Zhao entered Chang'an City with the Xuanjia iron cavalry and the barbarian cavalry, the three of them exchanged a look at the same time.
Not only did they not panic, but Pang Yukun said to Xiao Ming, "Your Highness, with King Zhao's temperament, he will definitely not let the crown prince ascend the throne, I am afraid that the thirteen princes will become the puppets of King Zhao, so we don't need to obey the orders of the imperial court at all." ”
"That's right, I'm afraid that after this time, not only do we think so, whether it is King Wei, King Yong or other vassal kings, they will no longer obey the orders of the imperial court, he used to be in harmony with the imperial court, and now it is only a matter of time before he stands on his own." Zhan Xingchang added.
Niu Ben is a soldier and has always been straightforward, he said: "Now is an opportunity for His Highness, when the world is in turmoil, it is the time when the times create heroes." ”
Pang Yukun and Zhan Xingchang's words were more tactful, but Niu Ben's words were very straightforward, clearly saying that he would let Xiao Ming pull the mountain and become the king himself.
"At present, the matter of Chang'an is not clear, and we will discuss it when Li San comes back."
