Chapter 1130 Queen
"Wind! Wind! Wind!"
Outside the city, the army gathered, making a roar like a mountain roaring and a tsunami. Although there were only ten thousand riders, they were powerful and powerful.
The slogans issued are the same as those of the Black Wind Cavalry of Qi State back then!
Hu Yanwei and his brother, wearing battle armor and riding two horses, rushed out of the city gate side by side and rushed into the army. His brother waved his arms and shouted: "Let's go!"
Ten thousand cavalry quickly changed direction, and ten thousand horses galloped to follow.
Hu Yanwei, who was charging forward, did not feel the danger of the situation at all. Instead, he was high-spirited and very excited. This was his first expedition with the army and he was his brother's deputy general!
The 10,000 cavalrymen were the troops left behind by Huyan Wuhen, and they were the heroic cavalry troops left behind to guard the capital.
In order to exterminate the rebels, Haoyuntu ordered Huyan Wuhen to do so, but Huyan Wuhen actually disobeyed the order and refused to send troops to quell the rebellion, insisting on the original battle plan.
The general was outside, and the emperor's orders were not accepted. Haoyuntu had no choice but to defeat Huyan Wuhen, and it was not easy to change generals on the spot, so he could only gather the troops at home to put down the rebellion.
In order to put down the rebellion as soon as possible, Haoyuntu dispatched the elite cavalry troops who stayed in the capital.
There is naturally a reason for dispatching the Cavalry. Defending the city is not what the cavalry is best at. The cavalry is good at attacking on the battlefield.
Hao Yuntu appointed Hu Yan Wuhen's eldest son as the chief general. He had no choice but to keep the Xiaoqi army in the hands of the Hu Yan family, and others were afraid that they would not be able to command him.
Hu Yanwei couldn't bear it anymore and took the initiative to invite Ying to fight. Haoyuntu readily agreed and appointed him as deputy general.
Hao Qingqing arrived late. When he climbed to the top of the city, he only saw smoke and dust billowing, and he pouted.
She came to see Hu Yanwei off. She didn't want to come. It was the Queen's repeated persuasion that made her come. As a result, she came late and couldn't see him off in time. She only saw a burst of smoke and heard a faint sound. The rumble of horse hooves.
…
"Faced with such great pressure from the court, Hu Yan Wuhen actually refused to obey the order!"
Shao Pingbo, who was hiding in the tunnel and lingering under the light, frowned and pondered as he looked at the information coming in. He didn't expect that Hu Yanwuhen would openly resist the order.
Others wanted to pacify the interior first before fighting against the outside world, but this general obviously wanted to insist on pacifying the outside world before fighting against the outside world, and he wanted to defeat the Jin offensive first.
In this case, his previous plans to delay the Qi army were in vain, and Hu Yanwuhen ignored them at all.
After some hesitation, Shao Pingbo looked up to the sky and let out a long sigh, "Yanshan Ming, Qi Wuhen, this Huyan Wuhen is indeed the pillar of the Qi State. If this person does not die, the Jin State will have to spend a lot of effort!"
Shao Sansheng on the side said: "Eldest Master, what should we do now? Should we think of another way to deal with Hu Yan Wuhen?"
Shao Pingbo shook his head: "Conspiracies that cannot be put on the table can only be useful off the table. Faced with Hu Yanwuhen's strategizing and the army galloping around, it will be useless to confront him head-on." He handed the message back to the other party, "What happened on the battlefield is not what happened. As for me, director, arbitrarily interfering may be self-defeating. The next battle between the two armies should be left to the generals. I have laid the groundwork for them to such an extent that it must be useful to them. Send the news back quickly! "
"Yes!" Shao Sansheng accepted the order.
…
At the border of Jin and Wei, the army of the Jin State fully pressed the border and launched an all-out offensive against the Wei State. The Wei State, which was poorly prepared in terms of military morale and morale, could not withstand the Jin Army's tiger and wolf offensive.
Within the territory of Weiguo, Shao Pingbo's plan played a huge role. The eastward route of Yinchu's army was almost unobstructed, and Yinchu's army was almost allowed to drive straight in. Along the way, the princes and horses of Weiguo almost blindfolded themselves and let them go.
When the news came, Xuan Wei almost vomited blood with grief and anger. After the imperial court passed the decree, the troops on the eastward march of Yin Chu's army promised well, but the actual actions were another matter. After the news of the defeat of the army fighting on the front line came out, the attitude of the defenders on Yin Chu's eastward advance route became even more inexplicable, and some even provided food and grass supplies to Yin Chu's army.
How could Xuan Wei not be so angry that she almost vomited blood? Faced with the ministers, she shouted angrily, "National traitor!"
"Ms. Sir!" Tang Yi suddenly ran into the hall, ignoring the surprised looks of the courtiers, and quickly walked to Xuan Wei's ear and whispered in her ear.
Xuan Wei was shocked, "What?"
Afterwards, regardless of his manners, he abandoned the government and ran out in panic, accompanied by Tang Yi all the way.
In the hall, Chang Linxian, the head of Lingxu Mansion, Zang Feng, the head of Shouzheng Pavilion, and Luo Yanzhenben, the head of Dalue Mountain, looked solemn due to the situation, but they exchanged glances at this moment, and then quickly left the hall to see what was going on, leaving behind a group of people who looked at each other. The courtiers who didn't know why...
Ximen Qingkong was sitting cross-legged on the ground with blood stains on his mouth and nose, his face was golden, his eyes were closed and he was breathing calmly without saying a word.
When Xuan Wei ran in and saw him, she immediately knelt down in front of him, hugged him, and said in panic: "Qingkong, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me!"
Ximen Qingkong opened her eyes and said calmly: "Someone poisoned my tea."
"How is that possible?" Xuan Wei was shocked. The people around her were all carefully selected confidants, and it was unlikely that they would do something like this.
Ximen Qingkong closed her eyes again, and Xuan Wei asked anxiously: "Who did it?"
Tang Yi, who came quickly, advised: "Mr. Ximen, Mr. Ximen is casting a spell to suppress the poison in the body, don't disturb me!"
Xuanwei was horrified, then stormed out angrily, summoning people in the courtyard to ask, "Who did this?"
After asking over and over again, they all said they didn't know, but Tang Yi tried to say something, "The disciples in the sect saw the prince-in-law coming here before, but I don't know..."
"Master Tang, don't talk nonsense without evidence!" Among the leaders of the three major sects who were striding over, Luo Yanzhen, the leader of Da Leshan, shouted in a deep voice, "Do you know what you are talking about? You want to destroy Wei Qi An alliance between the two countries?”
Tang Yi could only shut up in embarrassment.
Xuan Wei's eyes flashed and she said sternly: "Catch Hao Cheng here!"
Not long after, Hao Cheng was "invited", and Xuan Wei immediately questioned him sternly.
"I didn't do it, don't frame me." Hao Cheng said calmly, and then added, "If you die, you will die. There is nothing to make a fuss about."
Xuan Wei gritted her teeth and said, "In other words, you admitted that you did it?"
Hao Cheng: "I told you, it wasn't me."
Xuan Wei: "Then why did you curse him to die?"
Hao Cheng was angry, "Xuanwei, do you think I'm a fool? What do you think I am when you two live together in the same bed at night? I know what I did when I joined the Wei Kingdom, but you guys have gone too far. You didn't even try to avoid taboos." None, what does it mean for the face of my country, Qi? If I don’t curse him to death, why should I congratulate him?"
In fact, he was the one who put the poison, and it was only because of his identity that it was difficult for people to stop him from entering and exiting this place.
There were some things that he didn't know, but under the temptation of a thoughtful person, he was lured outside Xuan Wei's bedroom one night, letting him know what the men and women in the house were doing. He is also a man. Although he knows his responsibilities, it is understandable that he is sad and angry.
Afterwards, he couldn't help but ask someone to let him know what these meant.
After learning about the intention of the concerned person and the assurance of the concerned person, he no longer had any scruples. Under the arrangement of the concerned person, he found the right time to take action.
Xuan Wei's face turned red and white when he said that having an affair with Ximen Qingkong was not a glorious thing after all, and it would be embarrassing to be exposed on the spot.
But she couldn't care about that now and said sternly: "Okay, if you don't admit it, I have many ways to make you talk. Someone, take him down and torture him!"
Hao Cheng suddenly panicked, "Xuanwei, do you think our country, Qi, is made of mud?"
However, scaring him was useless. The guards pounced on him like wolves and tigers, and caught him on the spot.
Xuan Wei sneered, "Believe it or not, even if I kill you, I only need to report that you died of a sudden illness, and Qi will pretend that you don't know anything!"
"Wait!" Chang Linxian, the leader of Lingxu Mansion, spoke up. With a wave of his hand, several Shouzheng Pavilion disciples stepped forward, snatched Hao Cheng away, and ordered people to take Hao Cheng away for protection.
Xuan Wei said coldly: "Master Chang, what do you mean?"
Chang Linxian sighed: "My lord, I can understand your mood. What you said is right. Even if you kill him, Qi State will treat it as unknown for the sake of the overall situation. But have you ever thought about whether there is any internal situation in our Wei State?" , you killed the prince of Qi, wouldn’t it make people panic? Our three major factions will not allow you to touch him. Even if you want to kill him, it is not now. When the situation is stable, you want to kill or chop him up, it’s up to you. Then, the three major factions will never interfere!"
Zang Feng, the head of Shouzheng Pavilion, took a step forward and said, "Speaking of the people's hearts in the defense of the country, I have something important to tell you." He turned around and waved.
Soon, a group of courtiers came and knelt down one after another in front of Xuan Wei, and suddenly they all loudly begged: "Please, my husband, ascend the throne as the emperor! Please ascend the throne as the emperor..."
Faced with the endless entreaties from the ministers, Xuan Wei was shocked and actually wanted to support her as emperor!
If the situation on the battlefield was favorable, they would not initiate this move. Now that the war is unfavorable, everyone needs something to cheer them up. Everyone in the Wei Kingdom knows that Xuan Wei is capable, and supporting Xuan Wei in power at this time is a move to stabilize people's hearts.
Now facing the chaotic situation, even if there is a glimmer of benefit, these people will grasp at straws.
Xuan Wei naturally refused to agree to this. Even if she wanted to agree, she would not agree in a hurry due to emotion and reason.
After rejecting the irrelevant people, Xuan Wei returned to the house, knelt down in front of Ximen Qingkong, and cried, "I hurt you!"
Ximen Qingkong opened his eyes, what can he say? Finally, he closed his eyes again, trying his best to calm down and suppress the toxicity in his body.
Xuanwei, who had been crying for a while, suddenly stood up, walked out quickly, found Tang Yi, and said bitterly: "Hao Cheng is in the palace, where did the poisonous thing come from? Without the cooperation of the guards here, how could he have found it accurately? Precise timing to poison? Sister, I no longer expect the three major sects to save Qingkong. It’s a blessing that they don’t interfere with it. I’ll leave it to the Shangqing Sect to save Qingkong.”
"Understood." Tang Yi nodded. Everyone was not stupid. However, there was no way to accuse someone without evidence. Once they broke up, Ximen Qingkong would only die faster.
She quickly summoned the three elders of the Shangqing Sect, but they were helpless in the face of the poison Ximen Qingkong was poisoned. While Xuanwei tried her best to find someone to treat her, the three elders of the Shangqing Sect could only do their best to join forces and save the day. Ximen Qingkong suppresses toxicity in the body.
Ximen Qingkong is dying, but the outside world's calls for Xuan Wei to ascend the throne are getting louder and louder.
In the end, Xuanwei finally agreed to ascend the throne as the queen after being rejected several times!
The ministers urgently handled the matter, and on the day of his coronation, when Xuan Wei was trying on the imperial robe, Tang Yi urgently found Xuan Wei again.
Knowing that she had something to say, Xuan Wei retreated, and Tang Yi whispered, "Ms. Sir, someone sent a secret letter to the Shangqing Sect with advice on how to rescue Mr. Ximen."
Xuan Wei asked urgently: "Who can give me advice?"
Tang Yi shook his head: "I don't know." He took out the secret letter and showed it to the other party.
Xuanwei urgently opened the secret letter and saw the message telling her to send Ximen Qingkong to the Qi Kingdom immediately and send a secret envoy to see the Emperor of Qi, asking the Emperor of Qi to order Princess Ying Shao Liu'er to plead with the ghost doctor disciple Wu Xin, Wu Xin will definitely come to the rescue, but Save Ximen Qingkong’s life!
PS: Don’t rush, the progress is moving forward rapidly!
