Qingfeng monopolized power, and his life became more extravagant and shameless. He simply moved to Lu Puhuan's house with his wife and concubine, musicians, dancers and retinues. In the evening, there was a great bustle there, with a large number of guests crowding into Lu's house, and there were so many cars that the whole street was blocked. The guards responsible for guarding the palace and securing the capital were mobilized to maintain order for the parasites of the country.

The guests feasted all night with their mistresses, and the other mistresses of the mistresses, and it was a never-ending laugh of men and an endless cry of women.

Soon, Qingfeng simply handed over the state affairs to the prince Qingshe. Qingshe didn't bother to go to court, so he listened to the report at home. After a few days, the officials no longer went to the official office in the palace, but moved to the Qingshe house to handle official business.

Later, under the persuasion of Lu Puhuan, Qingshe recalled several warriors who had been exiled in the killing of Qi Zhuanggong; Among them were Lu Puqi and his friend Wang He, who also entered Qingfu as retainers.

Qingshe admired the two very much, so she kept them by her side as personal guards; He married his daughter to Lu Puhui again, and Lu Pugui did not refuse, and immediately accepted it happily.

Wang He reproached Lu Pugui and said: "You and the Qing family are both from the ancestors, why don't you avoid your clan relatives when you marry a wife?" ”

Lu Puqi said: "The sect does not avoid me, why should I be a sect?" Poetry has to be taken out of context, let alone doing things? I'm just taking what I need, so why should I avoid it? ”

Qingfeng was never stingy with money when it came to buying and co-opting henchmen, and he infiltrated his influence into the power departments and the spheres of influence of other noble clans, and half of the officials in charge of day-to-day affairs in the palace were his associates.

At that time, the standard for working lunchtime meals prepared in the palace for high-ranking officials was two chickens per person. Later, because the ducks were cheaper (or the duck keepers bribed the officials in charge of purchasing), the cooks cooked the ducks with their heads and feet cut off and used as chickens. Later, the minister in charge of serving the food learned about this secret and wanted to take advantage of the officials' mouths, so they tore off the meat and kept it for themselves, and the last thing served could only be called skeleton soup.

The ministers knew who the backers were behind those scoundrels, so they had to swallow their anger and stop eating the dish. But for the sake of appearance, two chickens must be served every time the meal is served.

Ziya and Ziwei basically don't eat in the palace, so they don't know the inside story. On this day, they happened to have lunch in the palace, and the kitchen and the food servant did not know that the two deadly gods were also among them, so they served the duck shelf soup in the usual way.

Ziya fished out a duck rack with clear tooth marks from the eating utensils, and her face suddenly turned blue; Ziwei couldn't help but mock him when he looked at his embarrassed appearance; Immediately afterwards, he also fished out a rotten skeleton covered with tooth marks, and Ziya couldn't help but lean back and laugh. Ziwei was suddenly furious, took out his whip and whipped the minister who served the dish half to death, and after venting his anger, he revealed the matter to Qi Jinggong.

Qi Jinggong was confused, and he didn't know what was going on at all. Ziya asked the other ministers again, and the ministers hesitantly revealed the inside story.

The two were even more angry, and Ziwei pointed at the doctors and asked, "What kind of place is this?" It is the palace city of the Qi Kingdom, the residence of the monarch, and the last barrier to protect the monarch! You are all ministers of society, and it is your duty to serve the monarch and eradicate traitors. Not only did you leave those traitors with the princes, so that the princes were exposed to the villains at any time, but you were also bullied by sluts and slaves! If you make yourselves inferior to them, how can you govern the country and fight the enemy? I think you're going to swap places with those lowly slaves! This way, everyone can do their best! ”

The doctors all bowed their heads and remained silent, and Ziwei immediately asked Qi Jinggong to be in charge of investigating the matter thoroughly. After getting the approval, the brothers used fierce and harsh means to dig out the evil forces in the palace and eliminate them.

The actions of the two were secretly unanimously approved by the minister, but they also angered Qingfeng. Qingfeng held the wine glass in his hand, and told this matter to Lu Puhuan, who was also in a daze, who was also in a daze, and the latter smiled and said, "Don't worry, master! Leave this to me! If Erhui were compared to a beast, I would have eaten their meat and slept with their skins. ”

Qing Feng decided to eliminate the two fierce enemies, but considering the strength of the other party, he decided to bring more clans in to deal with the enemy together - so that for the Qing clan, both the risk and the crime were much less.

Qingfeng first sent the doctor to return to his father to see Yan Ying, hoping to pull him into the gang. Yan Ying said: "I can be mediocre, my clan is scarce, and I am not worthy of the master's trust. I couldn't help, but I didn't dare to divulge my secrets. I can swear to God. ”

He said, "It is enough for the Master to express his position, and there is no need to swear. ”

He returned to his father and went to see Bei Guo Zuo, who said, "People serve the monarch in various ways, but my method is different from that of Dr. Kyungdae, and I dare not accept his request. ”

The father invited him around, but no one was willing to help Qingfeng make trouble. Qingfeng also knew that the two grandsons did not have the strength to challenge themselves, so he put this matter aside for the time being.

But the doctors were disturbed, and they already had a premonition that a catastrophe was about to befall them. In such a country of great chaos and depravity, both good and bad people want to start a riot, but they are both afraid of it—the good people want to take the opportunity to eradicate the evil and restore a clean government, but they are afraid of being destroyed by the enemy; The wicked want to destroy the good through turmoil, and then morality itself, but they have the same concerns. In this contradictory mentality, in the second year of Cui Zhu's suicide, a big chaos swept the country again.

And the initiators of this disaster turned out to be Qingshe's two most trusted subordinates (including his son-in-law) - Lu Puqi and Wang He.

The psychology of these two "traitors" is not difficult to understand: both of them turned out to be favored ministers of Qi Zhuang Gong, and they were deeply valued by the monarch, and at the same time they also gained considerable status and wealth. The two miss Qi Zhuang Gong very much, and they especially hate Cui Zhu. The two did not have a so-called good impression of the Qing family, and they deigned to be retainers in the Qing family, just to use this springboard to regain their former glory.

Ziwei and Ziya are also preparing in secret, their status is not as good as Yan Zi and Chen Xuwu, but they are the leaders of the anti-Qingfeng faction. The Luan, Gao, Chen, Bao, Yan, and Beiguo clans secretly colluded together and prepared to launch an attack on the Qing clan at the right time.

Chen Xuwu asked his son Chen Wuyu: "A catastrophe is coming, what should we do?" ”

Chen Wuyu said: "I want to prepare a hundred carts to go to the Qing family's house to pull wood." ”

Chen Xuwu: "If you get the wood, protect it well, don't lose it again." ”
