One Curtain Wind Moon Nine Heavens

Chapter 326

In May of the sixth year of Yongchang, Da Qi, who attacked Yan and Shu, had to back away from the menacing Shaoyang army.The big country retreated, and the other small countries didn't dare to be arrogant and presumptuous, so they withdrew one after another.

Originally, Da Qi and Yan Shu jointly attacked Wu Chu; at the same time, Da Qi and Sang Lan joined forces to besiege Yan Shu for the sake of the third son-in-law.

Yan Shu hated the deceitful Qi State, but in order to deal with Shaoyang, they had to send envoys to negotiate a peace with the heads of the three son-in-laws, discussing how to resist Wu Chu's army.

However, Da Qi withdrew his troops directly.

It had no choice but to form an alliance with Sang Lan before, but now that the three sons-in-law are under execution, there is no need to waste troops to encircle Yan.Besides, the other Shaoyang army has arrived in the west of Shanxi and the generals stationed there, and it faces much more pressure than Yanshu.

As the three sons-in-law were put to death, the other small countries that besieged Yan and Shu hurriedly withdrew their troops and fled.

The rest of Sang Lan still persisted, claiming that the head was not the third son-in-law's, and the real third son-in-law was not dead yet.Taking advantage of Yanshu's all-powerful response to the Shaoyang army, Sang Lan's soldiers and horses took advantage of the vacancy and captured several cities.

Being attacked front and back, Yan Shu was tired of coping.

As a last resort, he had to send envoys to Sanglan for peace talks and form an alliance to resist Shaoyang together.The advantage is that after the war, it does not pursue the few cities that were taken by Sang Lan.

"Do you still want to pursue it?" Sanglan King was delighted, "The late king died in your country, so how do you know that it wasn't the black hand of the third son-in-law who was planning to set the blame on others?"

Under the banner of avenging the former monarch, he put an end to the saying that other ministers stopped attacking Yanshu.

When all plans failed, Yanshu sent envoys to Wuchu to negotiate a peace, and asked Xizuo lurking in Wuchu to lobby some ministers.As long as Shaoyang can retreat, Yanshu promises to allow them to collect border tariffs and inland customs duties every year.

These taxes are not included in the national account, and you only need to communicate with the officials at the border to get riches and honors.

Sake is popular with people, and money is touching people's hearts.

Soon, various voices appeared in Wu Chu's court.Some advocated peace talks, some impeached Lord Shaoyang to avenge his personal revenge, and some worried about Shaoyang's reputation spreading far and wide... To sum it up in one sentence, retreat!

The lost lands of Nanzhou and Yansai have all been regained, and if the fighting continues, it will only waste the people and money, and the people will not be able to live.

After all, Wu Chu's biggest target is Qi.

Although Qi was forced to withdraw from several cities it had previously occupied, Jinxi was still under its control.The Shaoyang army over there is in a stalemate with the defenders of the Qi State. The long-term war consumes the national strength, and it is pointless to attack Yanshu.

Mr. Shaoyang should put aside his personal grudges and consider the interests of the country.

However, there are also courtiers who believe that in the past, Yan and Shu have often collude with Qi to invade the border between Wu and Chu.It is rare that Wu Chu has the ability to invade Yan and Shu, and if he doesn't take the opportunity to interrupt it, Qi's dog leg, when will he wait?
Besides, what is personal enmity?

It is a national humiliation for Yanshu to poison the Marquis of Zhenxi and blame the late Emperor and Daqi!Da Qi attacked Yan and Shu for this, how could Wu and Chu remain indifferent?Or some ministers think that Wu Chu is a coward, whose national strength is not as good as Qi, and he is not worthy of competing with Qi?
"Well, what Aiqing said is very reasonable!" Emperor Yongchang praised the minister who had the courage to speak out.

But the courtiers insisted on their own opinions. Considering that Qi's military strength is not inferior to that of Wu and Chu, they will lose sight of others if they are not careful.

After pondering for a while, Emperor Yongchang sent an order to Lord Shaoyang to withdraw his troops to the west of Shanxi immediately after avenging his revenge.As for the captured cities of Yan and Shu, they can be handed over to Nanzhou county magistrate, county lieutenant and others for discussion and garrisoning, and she can just leave half of the troops.

……

In July, Shaoyang's army approached outside the city walls less than [-] li away from the Yan and Shu Kingdoms, and ordered the King of Yan to hand over the heads of the third son-in-law, Bei Yuechong, his descendants, the descendants of his concubine, as well as the married daughters and children. There are more than fifty people in total.

Children under the age of 12, including infants, were all poisoned and their bodies left behind.

"Those are just children..." A veteran official from Yanshu came to the front of the army to intercede for the children of the third son-in-law's family, pleading bitterly, "They are also your clansmen..."

"Murdering the same clan will bring disaster to the country and the people. Those who are unfaithful, filial, and unrighteous are not worthy of children and grandchildren, let alone live." A lieutenant came out to spread the word, "Let King Yan not delay time, let alone try to steal the dragon and replace it with the children of his servants.

The general already has portraits of the young and old of that family, with slight differences, and he exchanged the lives of the children and grandchildren of the royal family of Yan for another! "

The lives of the royal family's descendants are of course more important than those of the son-in-law. King Yan just values ​​the resourcefulness and blood of the son-in-law Bei Yuechong.Try to keep it if you can, and if you can't keep it, not only donate it, but also beware of his family running away.

The minister failed to negotiate with him, and the three princesses of Yan and Shu went to the army to plead that she was willing to die with her son-in-law to vent the hatred in the heart of Lord Shaoyang, but she begged to let the whole family go.

"Cut the grass without eradicating the roots, and leave them to continue to harm the same clan?" Yuan Zhao met her personally, unmoved by her cries, and said slowly, "When he planned to murder my brother, you dignified Princess Yan wouldn't you?" Will you not know?

That night, did you ever drink the honey-flavored tribute wine from Sanglan to your heart's content? "

According to the report from the spies, on the night when she succeeded in plotting against her brother, the couple had a three-day feast in the mansion to celebrate, and King Yan highly praised the couple's strategy.

And my family lost three people, big and small, and the whole house was sad.

"It's my princess' fault, it's my son-in-law's fault, it has nothing to do with the child!" Unexpectedly, she could even find out what wine she drank that night, Princess Yan broke down and begged, "They are also your family! Enemies should be resolved rather than knotted..."

"Then it's even more damning," Yuan Zhao smiled, his eyes were cold, "I have added a new family rule, all outsiders and sons will be punished."

Is it better to resolve enemies than to end them?
With her, the hatred of killing a brother is still irreconcilable.For Bei Yuechong's children and grandchildren, how could they let go of killing their father?

"You cruel woman, you deserve to be unable to marry! This princess curses you..." I wanted to curse the Beiyue family for cutting off their children and grandchildren, but the two lieutenants next to me hurriedly tore a rag into my mouth and dragged it back to the Yan Kingdom. guard.

"Send a message to Minister Yan to bring them out at [-]:[-] noon tomorrow, and I will personally supervise and kill them." Yuan Zhao stared at the city wall not far away, and said slowly, "Otherwise, don't blame me for treating more than two hundred people from the Yan royal family. The officers were ruthless."

She was able to kill King Pingchuan, so naturally she could also kill King Yan, it just took some time.

Even if she retreats, the assassination of members of the royal family of Yan will continue until the head of King Yan is taken.

The minister of Yan State spread the words to the royal court, and members of the royal family of Yan were filled with indignation and scolded her for being arrogant and arrogant.But for the peace and tranquility of the royal family of Yan, there is really no need to forcibly get involved in the internal strife between the Beiyue clan.

Yes, this is internal fighting. Although the age gap is large, it cannot obliterate Bei Yuechong's identity as the cousin of Lord Shaoyang.

So, regardless of Princess Yan's weeping and crying and obstruction, the royal guards escorted more than [-] people and rushed on the road overnight.Before noon the next day, they arrived in front of the Shaoyang army, lined up and knelt in front of the army, and a lieutenant took out portraits to compare them one by one.

Yuan Zhao came to that cousin and looked at him a little more seriously.

Cousin Bei Yuechong is over 40 years old. As a son-in-law, he has a lot of children and grandchildren, and is highly valued by the King of Yan.According to the investigation, the clansmen of the Duke of Wuchu's mansion were his main target of elimination, but the throne of Yanshu was also the target of his schemes.

He wanted to become king in Yanshu, and then crusade against Wuchu to regain the country.

"You witch..." Bei Yuechong refused to kneel, and was kicked from behind by a martial guard before kneeling down.At this moment, staring at Yuan Zhao, he gritted his teeth with hatred, "Allegiance to Fengwu ruined my plan, the one that this king should get rid of is you!

You and your father are the sinners of my family! "

His biological father was originally the king of a country. As his own son, he always called himself king in his heart, and worked hard for this goal.

Unexpectedly, his years of planning were ruined by a woman.

Hmph, Yuan Zhao smiled coldly, staring at this fat, round and slightly clumsy simple and honest face, the friendly faces of his father, third brother and sixth brother flashed in front of his eyes one by one.

"Your Highness, it is confirmed that all the people in the portrait are there." Dong Tang came over to report.

Yuan Zhao didn't look back, he calmed down and stared at Bei Yuechong's instantly pale face, with a soft tone:

"cut."

Suddenly, there was a panic cry in the arena.As the raised butcher knives fell one by one, the crying stopped abruptly.

"Demon girl—" Bei Yuechong didn't dare to look or listen, stared at Yuan Zhao with shattered eyes, and screamed, "I'll never let you go even if I'm a ghost—"

Yuan Zhao sneered, "I'll wait!"

He casually drew out the general's knife beside him and slashed at his neck, blood gushing out.Before he fell down, she returned the knife to the general, and left a sentence when she turned to leave,
"Cut off his head and send it back to the Duke's mansion, let the second brother send it to the third brother's grave, and say that I have avenged him."

"The last general takes orders!"

At the same time, on the city wall in the distance, a woman dressed in fine clothes witnessed all this in a daze, jumped up, and landed lightly like a broken butterfly...
