Iron Dynasty

645 Shocking the World

"Father, this...this...how should I do it?"

In the main hall of Prince Yan's 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.

For this battle, the Yan Kingdom sent all the elites, even the most elite Black Feather Army of the Cui family, but now all the 170,000 soldiers are 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, a group of officials suddenly ran into the main hall in a panic, and an official exclaimed, "Your Highness, it's the other way around, the fourth prince is reversed. The palace will kill you!"

"What!" Cui Hao almost jumped up in shock.

King Yan seemed to be waking up from a dream at this time, and he was startled and angry, "This white-eyed wolf, this king has raised him in vain for the past few years, and I knew that they would kill him when they fled to Bozhou!"

Then he asked, "How many of them are there in all!"

An official said in a hurry: "His Royal Highness, the Tian family and the Ji family have been planning for a long time. This time they lead the noble clan that depends on them. There are more than 50,000 members. Your Highness, if you don't leave, you will not be able to leave."

"Fifty thousand people! Father, there are only 25,000 Black Feather troops left in the city, so they may not be their opponents." Cui Hao said.

King Yan narrowed his eyes, and he suddenly laughed frantically, "This king mistakenly saw Xiao Ming's child, the Tian family and Ji family must not have the courage, it must have been Xiao Ming who promised them, I didn't expect this king to fight all day long. Snake, but now bitten by a snake."

At this time, the battle between the Black Feather Army and the noble clan could already be heard outside the palace, and the officials and generals said anxiously, "Your Highness should make a decision earlier."

King Yan sighed bitterly when he heard the words, and he said to Cui Hao, "Go to Yingzhou immediately. Your elder brother is leading 70,000 soldiers to guard against the King of Huainan in Yingzhou. Now it is only safe there."

"Yes, Father," Cui Hao said.

Chang'an, Chengqing Hall.

Sitting on the dragon chair, King Zhao looked down on his ministers like an emperor. When the memorial of Yunzhou City's defeat in the battle was brought up, his heart couldn't help beating a few times.

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

Queen Zhao sits behind the beaded curtain with the thirteenth prince who is almost two years old. King Zhao is just King Zhao. When she went to court, Queen Zhao still took the thirteenth prince to govern, but in fact she was just pretending to appease. The old minister of Chang'an City.

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

"King Yan and King Liang are really rubbish. Even the 350,000-strong army can't capture a single Yunzhou city. Father, don't worry, even if the coalition forces are defeated, Xiao Ming's army must be very tired. Take advantage of the present time to take the land of Shu as soon as possible. , must not be distracted by this matter!" Zhao Yuanliang said loudly.

King Zhao didn't seem to hear what Zhao Yuanliang said. He read: "Forty thousand black armored cavalry, this is this king's black armored iron cavalry, forty thousand people are gone."

Seeing King Zhao's appearance, the courtiers in the hall had different expressions.

When King Zhao entered Chang'an, many ministers joined King Zhao, but some ministers had to enter and leave the court to serve King Zhao just to protect themselves.

Now that the Three Kings Allied Forces had suffered a major defeat, they suddenly realized that following King Zhao would 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. Now the failure of the Three Kings Alliance has completely awakened many people.

Looking at his father, who was a little rude, Zhao Yuanliang suddenly said, "Let's go away."

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

After shouting, 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 out his saber and slashed wildly at the chopping board in front of him.

The delicate chopping board was chopped down by King Zhao's sharp sword and saw dust flying.

The thirteenth prince was frightened, and at this time, he suddenly started to cry "Wow". Facing King Zhao's appearance like a madman, Queen Zhao immediately protected the thirteenth prince and walked to the inner hall.

Zhao Yuanliang didn't dare to breathe, but he knew very well his father's temperament. At this time, whoever touched someone would suffer.

Suzaku Avenue.

The ministers who had left the court walked together in twos and threes and whispered to each other.

"This time the coalition forces were defeated, what advice does Ge Zhongshu have?" There were three officials dressed in purple on the edge of Suzaku Avenue walking side by side.

Judging from the official uniforms, all three are first-rank officials of the court.

The person who asked was gray-haired and thin-looking, and it was Yu Zhiyong, the minister of households of the current dynasty.

Ge Yiren squinted and glanced at Yu Zhiyong. After Fiji escaped from Chang'an, he was promoted to Zhongshuling.

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

However, although it is a Chinese book order, he has no real power in his hands. These two years are just a false name, and the real government affairs are handled by the people of the King of Zhao.

"Won't matter if you win or lose, what do you have to do with me? No matter who the Chengqing Palace in Chang'an City is replaced, won't we still be our own officials?" Ge Yiren said lightly.

The Minister of Rites, Ni Kuang, who was walking on Ge Yiren's left, shook his head and said, "Ge Zhongshu's words are wrong. Now this King Qi is enthroned in Qingzhou with the last emperor's edict. If this edict is true, then he is the only one. The new monarch of the Great Yu Kingdom, and this new monarch has a weird temperament and is different from ordinary people, even if he defeats the King of Zhao one day, it is estimated that Chang'an will not be the capital."

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

"Cabinet? What is this?" Ge Yiren asked in confusion.

"This cabinet was set up by King Qi. It is said that it is above the six ministries. There are nine members in this cabinet to discuss national affairs together. Now there are only two members in this cabinet, and there are still seven vacancies." Yu Zhiyong added.

Ni Kuang said at this time: "Two, from the perspective of the following, this King of Qi has a limitless future. It is impossible to say that he will be the emperor of the Great Yu Kingdom in the future. Now we should prepare earlier."

Ge Yiren was also a little tempted when he heard the words, he didn't care, but who would have thought that it was time to drop his official robe.

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