"Father, this... This... What should I do? ”

In the main hall of Yanwang Mansion, Cui Hao wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, his body trembled a little, he had just returned to Bozhou from Qingzhou a few days ago. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

For this battle, the Yan Kingdom sent all the elites, and even the Cui family's most elite Black Feather Army was also sent out, but now these 170,000 soldiers are all gone.

King Yan didn't seem to hear Cui Hao's words, he looked at the roof of the main hall, like a clay sculpture.

At this moment, suddenly a group of officials ran into the main hall in a panic, and an official exclaimed, "Your Highness, it's the opposite, the four princes are reversed, the Tian family and the Ji family's subordinates followed the four princes to seize the city gate, and they are killing the palace!" ”

"What!" Cui Hao almost jumped up in shock when he heard this.

King Yan seemed to have just woken up from a dream at this time, he was shocked and angry, "This white-eyed wolf, this king has raised him for a few years in vain, and he knew that he would be killed when they fled to Bozhou!" ”

Then he asked, "How many of them are there?" ”

An official said urgently: "Your Highness, the Tian family and the Ji family have been planning for a long time, this time they led the wealthy clan that depended on them, and there were more than 50,000 people in the department. ”

"Fifty thousand! Father, there are only 25,000 Black Feather Army left in the city, and they may not be his opponents. Cui Hao said.

King Yan narrowed his eyes, and he suddenly laughed madly, "This king mistook this Xiao Ming child, the Tian family and the Ji family must not have the courage, it must be Xiao Ming who gave them the promise, but I didn't expect this king to fight snakes all day long, but now he is bitten by snakes." ”

At this time, the sound of the battle between the Black Feather Army and the Hao clan could already be heard outside the palace, and a group of officials and generals said anxiously: "Your Highness, let's make a decision as soon as possible." ”

King Yan sighed bitterly when he heard this, and he said to Cui Hao: "Now go to Yingzhou immediately, your eldest brother is leading 70,000 soldiers to guard against King Huainan in Yingzhou, and now only there is safety." ”

"Yes, Father." Cui Hao said.

Chang'an, Chengqing Palace.

Sitting on the dragon chair, King Zhao was as proud as an emperor, and when the defeat of Yunzhou City was sent, his heart couldn't help beating a few times.

The officials and generals in the main hall were all looking at King Zhao, and the news of the defeat of Yunzhou City had spread along with the merchants and the rout in Chang'an City, and now they were all waiting for King Zhao to decide.

Empress Zhao sat behind the bead curtain with the thirteen princes who were almost two years old, King Zhao was just King Zhao, and Empress Zhao still had to take the thirteen princes to listen to the government when she was in the last dynasty, but in fact she was just making a show to appease the old ministers of Chang'an City.

When she heard the news of Yunzhou City, a smile appeared on the corner of Empress Zhao's mouth behind the bead curtain.

"King Yan and King Liang are really waste, the 350,000 army can't even capture a Yunzhou City, my father doesn't have to worry, even if the coalition army is defeated, but Xiao Ming's army must be very tired, take advantage of the time to take Shu as soon as possible, and must not be distracted by this matter!" Zhao Yuanliang said loudly.

King Zhao didn't seem to hear Zhao Yuanliang's words, he read: "Forty thousand Xuanjia iron horses, this is this king's Xuanjia iron horses, forty thousand people are gone." ”

Seeing King Zhao like this, the courtiers in the hall had different expressions.

As soon as King Zhao entered Chang'an, many ministers joined King Zhao's command, but some ministers had to go in and out of the court to serve King Zhao just to protect their lives.

Now that the Three Kings Alliance has suffered a big defeat, they suddenly realize that following King Zhao will not last long.

If the battle of Cangzhou was accidental, the battle of Jizhou was accidental, and the battle of Weidi was accidental, then the battle of Yunzhou City was inevitable.

Xiao Ming has proven time and time again that his army is invincible, and everyone is ignoring this, and now the defeat of the Three Kings Alliance has completely awakened many people.

Glancing at his father, who was a little out of shape, Zhao Yuanliang suddenly said, "Let's disperse." ”

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

After chanting, the ministers turned and left, leaving the palace.

After all the officials left, Zhao Yuanliang asked cautiously, "Father." ”

"Xiao Ming! This king is going to kill you! At this moment, King Zhao suddenly drew his sword and slashed at the board in front of him.

The delicate board was chopped into sawdust by King Zhao's sword.

The thirteen princes were frightened, and at this time, they suddenly cried "wow", and in the face of King Zhao's appearance of pretending to be crazy, Empress Zhao immediately escorted the thirteen princes to the inner hall.

Zhao Yuanliang also didn't dare to breathe, he knew his father's temperament very well, and whoever touched him would suffer at this time.

Suzaku Avenue.

The ministers who had dispersed walked together in twos and threes, exchanging heads and whispering to each other.

"The coalition was defeated this time, I don't know what Ge Zhongshu has to say?" Near the edge of Suzaku Avenue, there were three officials dressed in purple government offices walking side by side.

Judging from the official uniforms, all three of them are first-class members of the court.

The person who asked was gray-haired and thin-looking, and it was Yu Zhiyong, the head of the household department.

Ge Yiren squinted at Yu Zhiyong, who had been promoted to Zhongshu Ling after Fiji fled Chang'an.

This is not because of his deep trust in King Zhao, but because he is the oldest among many officials in Chang'an City, and he is the top three champions of the year.

However, although it is a Zhongshu order, he has no real power in his hands, and the past two years are just a false name, and the real government affairs are still handled by King Zhao's people.

"Win or lose, what do you have to do with me? No matter who changes to this Chengqing Hall in Chang'an City, aren't we still our own officials? Ge Yiren said lightly.

Ni Kuang, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, who was walking on the left side of Ge Yiren, shook his head and said: "Ge Zhongshu's words are wrong, now this King of Qi is enthroned in Qingzhou with the edict of the previous emperor, if this edict is true, he is the new monarch of the Great Yu Kingdom, and this new monarch has a strange temperament, different from ordinary people, even if he defeats King Zhao one day, it is estimated that he will not take Chang'an as Kyoto." ”

Yu Zhiyong nodded, "No, I met a businessman from Qingzhou a few days ago, it is said that the Chang'an officials who went to Qingzhou are now all serving in the feudal state of King Qi, and Fiji has now become a member of the cabinet. ”

"Cabinet? What is it? Ge Yiren was puzzled.

"This cabinet was set up by the King of Qi, and it is said that it is still above the six ministries, and there are a total of nine people in this cabinet to discuss national affairs, and now there are only two people in this cabinet, and there are seven vacancies." Yu Zhiyong added.

Ni Kuang said at this time: "The two, in my opinion, the future of this King of Qi is limitless, and it is impossible to say that he will be the emperor of the future Great Yu Kingdom, now we should prepare earlier." ”

Ge Yiren was also a little tempted when he heard this, he didn't care, but who would want to throw away an official robe when the time came.

Having been in the officialdom for many years, they are well aware of the importance of keeping with people.
