One Curtain Wind Moon Nine Heavens

Chapter 329

In February of the seventh year of Yongchang, news spread that the monarch of Qi State was suffering from a serious illness.

No wonder he didn't go to court for a long time, and only let the eldest son supervise the country.

According to reports, his illness was all caused by worrying about state affairs.Shaoyang's army captured the western region, and they still pretended to be stationed there for a long time.Domineering in one's own land, unable to fight and drive away, can one not suffer from anxiety and disease?
Originally, the ministers and the clan were anxious together, until news came out that their king had a malignant sore.The flesh of the malignant sore is protruding, like a flower blooming.Sometimes it's good and sometimes it's bad, and now it's on the head, and the palace Chinese medicine officer is helpless.

Isn't that a flower disease?The evil result of looking for flowers and asking willows!

It is reported that when he got sick, the masculine man changed his preferences and became fascinated by women. Even the servants and servants with outstanding looks in the palace could not escape the clutches of the devil.What's more, all the servants who showed disgust and disgust towards his face were directly chopped off.

Knowing that the news had been leaked, King Qi was furious and cut off all the servants around him.

Such atrocities shocked the whole country.

Soon, there was a rumor among the people of Qi, saying that it would be better to welcome Lord Shaoyang into the city than to be ruled by such a king.I heard that although the Shaoyang army was short of food, they never looted the people's food, and only stripped the rich households.

The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. It is said that the eldest son of the king of Qi is quite like a father.If he inherits the throne, there may be a male queen in Qi State one day, which will make people laugh and be generous.

The family ugliness was publicized, and the princes and clans of Qi became angry with embarrassment. They supported their soldiers and refused to send troops to expel Shaoyang's army.Unless the king of Qi and the eldest son of the king are willing to give up the throne, other young and promising clan children of the royal family will take on this important task.

Otherwise, the important task of expelling the Shaoyang army will depend on the Royal Guards.

That definitely won't work, King Qi and the eldest son are not stupid, how could they easily mobilize the Imperial Army's Imperial Army?Once the imperial army is dispatched, who will defend the royal city?The royal family members have shown their intention to replace them, how can they succeed?
But the princes and the royal family's children have their own thoughts and don't listen to their orders.Internal and external troubles made King Qi, who was hiding in the harem, furious.

To fight against the outside world, we must first settle down inside. People inside have different opinions, so how can we care about the enemies outside?

In the west, only one of the three guards sent by Yuan Zhao to deliver letters to the capital returned.As expected, there were indeed people in the capital intercepting the performances and military reports she sent to the palace.

It turned out that the three of them entered the capital separately. After observation, they not only found that a lot of eyeliners had been planted in the streets near Guogong Mansion and Princess Mansion in Dongping Lane, but also many people outside Lianqu Mansion and Junma Mansion were watching. .

In this case, they didn't dare to show their faces to ask for a face-to-face saint, but waited for the captain to come to explore the way.

Finally, after lurking in Beijing for a few days, he finally waited for the captain to show up in the city.This man was indeed clever, and along the way he found that checkpoints at checkpoints and crossings were very strict, especially for postmen delivering letters.

Even those who are in a hurry at eight hundred miles have to get off their horses to be interrogated.

Seeing this, the captain did not dare to reveal his identity, and went back to Beijing in a low-key way to seek help from his acquaintances, but was taken to a secluded private house by the acquaintances... Three personal guards chased to the suburbs and rescued the captain, but he was already seriously injured. Dying.

Therefore, the three personal guards sent him to a farm far away from the capital to recuperate, and asked one of them to go back to the west to report the situation in the capital to Lord Shaoyang.

And they stayed in the city to investigate the attitude of the emperor and the movements of the imperial guards.

When Yuan Zhao received the letter, she had already led her troops to Xu State, a small country adjacent to Qi State.There was no warning when the army came under the border. The guards on the border of Xu State were both frightened and angry, and asked her why she launched an attack for no reason.

"I'm out of food, and I'm here to ask your country for some food and grass, and I will report it in the future." She said in a friendly manner.

Who dares to speak out when the army is out of food?Her upright attitude made the other party laugh angrily, and dropped the words, if she dared to act recklessly, he would report to the Xu royal family to send envoys to question Emperor Wu Chu, and then shut the city gate tightly and ignored him.

"Siege the city." Yuan Zhao said.

The war came too suddenly, after two days of fighting, General Xu Guoshou was overwhelmed and hurriedly notified the royal family.In the end, the warehouse was opened to release grain, and all of it was transported away by the Shaoyang army, and it was repeatedly emphasized that there was no grain in the city, so don't come to harass again.

A small country is a small country. Looking at the truckloads of looted food and grass, at most 20 people can feed for half a month, which is a drop in the bucket.

Yuan Zhao thought for a while, and sent people to Sanglan to ask for food, and then sent the rest of the deputy generals to harass the small countries nearby.And let the deputy generals say, whoever dares to resist, the city will be destroyed and the people will die; whoever burns the food and grass, the flesh of the city people will be hung on the wall.

Hungry, her army eats people.

This order made people think about it, and many imaginative generals in the army vomited for several days.Including Qu Tinglan, she vomited pale, leaned against the wall, and asked Luo Yan in disbelief:
"It's not true, is it? Your Highness is joking?"

Luo Yan and all the female guards smiled mysteriously and remained silent, leaving her in suspense.

"Ouch—" So she continued to vomit.

When the generals went out to loot houses, Sang Lan's food and grass arrived, enough for the Shaoyang army to feed for two months.A personal attendant of Lan Muqi arrived with the grain and grass, and reminded her respectfully:

"Sang Lan has been suffering from natural and man-made disasters for years, and the harvest is not much. I hope Lord Shaoyang will understand..."

Only this time, the next is not an example.

It must be known that the agreement back then was that she would help Lan Muqi return to the country and ascend the throne; while he fanned the flames for her and united with other countries to besiege Yanshu to avenge his brother.

Today, both parties have fulfilled the agreement, and there is no further relationship.

"Although the state of Qi is in chaos, it is temporary. When it recovers and learns that Sang Lan has repeatedly supported the Shaoyang army with food and grass, it may be difficult to get better." The relatives bowed and bowed, saying that they were well "I hope Lord Shaoyang will give Sang Lan a way out..."

Sanglan is a country with both sides, and has provided grain and grass assistance to Beicang, Qi and Yanshu.Among the four great powers, it is the only one with few wars.Compared with Lingchuan, it is the real granary of the world.

Who will be idle and have nothing to do to open their own granary?

Moreover, it is not one's granary.Whoever dared to hit it, the other two dared to hit whoever.

"The king of Qi has a sword in his mouth, and the weather is uncertain, so your king doesn't want to completely wipe it out once and for all?" Yuan Zhao asked the visitor, "Why don't you cooperate while I'm here?"

The brows of the attendant suddenly jumped slightly, still smiling and said:
"Although the idea is good, can you guarantee when you will be there and when you will not be there? If not, wouldn't such cooperation be very detrimental to my king?"

To be honest, compared with the powerful and domineering Bei Cang, the capricious Qi State is even more hated.Helpless, she is under the eaves now, and the Wuchu royal family is bent on killing her. How can such a person have the qualifications to discuss cooperation with Lord Sanglan?

Qi State is more than twice as powerful as Yan Shu, and it is by no means easy to carve up.

Yuan Zhao saw that the other party didn't buy it, and he didn't force it, so he said a word:
"It's spring, and Sang Lan has learned my seventh brother's skill of improving farming and mulberry, so she can cultivate the land well. Maybe when the autumn harvest comes, our army will have to come and help..."

If the family doesn't speak the same language, if you help, it will be hers.

There is no way, after eating the current batch of food, if you can't get it elsewhere, you can only disturb Sang Lan.She never dared to talk too much, leaving room for it, goodbye is also a friend.

Follow: "..."

After a long while, the entourage left the Shaoyang Camp with a stinky face leading the food convoy.
