Chapter 188
"Did she really say that?"

Before she finished listening to the mother-in-law's reply, Concubine Xian raised her eyebrows and scolded with angry eyes.

Although the mother-in-law was eloquent and eloquent, she cringed immediately when she saw the concubine Xian was so unhappy. She peeked at Mrs. Jinyang Hou and was encouraged by her, so she carefully said: "What this servant girl said is absolutely true, every sentence true.

"She will raise her self-worth! Don't even think about it. The two concubines have been missing for three days. If they don't join us, does she have any other way out?"

Concubine Xian cursed, Fu Lici's attitude was completely beyond her expectations.

Born as the concubine's daughter of the Hou's Mansion, she entered the palace as one of the four concubines, and now she has given birth to a prince. Pei Ling'er has long been used to the life of being flattered by others.In her opinion, the Ye family is in turmoil, and if she offered to lend a helping hand, she would definitely accept it gratefully.

This Fu Lici...how dare...

The concubine Xian who became more and more angry slammed down the table, causing a emerald gemstone on the armor to fall. She glared angrily at the female officer aside, and was about to vent her anger, but Mrs. Jinyang Hou couldn't stand it anymore. Said: "Daughter, you are confused! By uniting with you, she will have a way out? You can hold the eldest son of the emperor to fight against King Liang and King Yan? Linger, not to mention that Concubine De also gave birth to a prince, even if there is only one in the harem If you give birth to an imperial heir, Mrs. Shaohou can ignore you and me at all! Don't forget, the Imperial Army is in the hands of their husband and wife."

"So what! Could it be that the Ye family dared to rebel?"

Concubine Xian said arrogantly, she is not stupid, but she always has an unconcealable dislike for Fu Lici.

Different from her excitement, Mrs. Jinyang Hou remained calm. She signaled the palace people to step back for now, then grabbed her daughter's pair of soft clothes, and said lovingly: "Ling'er, do you know why Your Majesty rowed alone before leaving?" Are you going to hand over the forbidden army to the Ye family?"

"why?"

"Because your majesty has always been partial to the Ye family. In fact, your majesty is not fully sure about this northern expedition. That's why he decided to go on the expedition after the imperial temple gave the auspicious omen of the royal family, and even left an edict to pass the throne. But why did your majesty So repeatedly implying that I will fall on the road to the Northern Expedition? The current situation seems simple, but in fact it is dark and turbulent. You have the prince in hand, which is your biggest advantage at present, but the concubine De has the same advantage. It can be said that you and She is maintaining a balance, just like Wei Wang and Yan Wang outside the palace have always maintained the balance of government affairs."

"I don't think Concubine De wants to continue this balance, my child..."

Concubine Xian choked up and said, although there was no evidence, the sudden illness of the little prince was obviously related to Concubine De.

"That's right, Concubine De is really restless recently. But who gave her the courage to be restless? I'm afraid she has formed an alliance with a certain feudal lord, so she has nothing to fear!"

"Could it be—"

Concubine Xian's tongue also began to tremble, Madam Jinyang Hou's hint was beyond her imagination.

"My Lord Hou and I have discussed it in private. Our conclusion is that His Majesty wants to use the opportunity of the Northern Expedition to wipe out those who have evil intentions. But this is a big gamble. If you lose the bet, Your Majesty will really not be able to come back. ! And judging from the current signs, His Majesty may really not come. After all, all the feudal lords are scheming, and they will not make a move if they are not fully sure!"

Mrs. Jinyang Hou sighed, the speculation that seemed like a fantasy has become a terrible signal because of the various subtle and weird things in Beijing recently.

Someone wants to change the dynasty!
His Majesty wants to use Beizheng to wipe out some people, but the people he wants to deal with also want to use Beizheng to make His Majesty never come back!
"Who is so bold!"

Concubine Xian spoke sharply, but she didn't realize that her body was trembling slightly.

"I don't know, everything is speculation. But obviously, His Majesty also anticipated the worst possibility, so he handed over the forbidden army to the Ye family. Once the government changes, the Ye family, which holds the forbidden army, can at least temporarily keep it Safe. After all, a rebellious minister needs the title of righteousness, and it is impossible for him to expand the matter."

"Rebellious minister...then the emperor and I are in danger!"

The Concubine Xian who was suddenly enlightened said in embarrassment that the Niwang chose Concubine De's child, no matter whether the coup d'état was successful or not, she and her child would be killed at the beginning of the game.

"Yes, it is very dangerous, and you may be assassinated at any time. That's why I want you to form an alliance with the Ye family. So far, the Ye family is the direct line of His Majesty. If the conspirators really control the capital and support the son of Concubine De as the new emperor , you immediately let the Ye family take you and the child out of the capital! If the king supports the emperor, he will definitely control the government and become the overlord. You only need to wait for him to show his intention to usurp the throne, and then you can unite the kings to seek justice in the name of the blood of the first emperor. inverse."

Speaking of this, Mrs. Jinyanghou paused, and said: "Of course this is the worst case. I believe that your majesty, with his strength, will never be murdered by rebellious officials and thieves! But if your majesty cannot return to the palace for a while, Xiaoxiao They are making trouble again, and you have to escape from the palace and seek the protection of the Ye family... If His Majesty can return to the palace, you will be the most loyal woman to him. Even if a new favorite concubine gives birth to a prince in the future, the status of you and the prince will not It will not be easily shaken. If it is Your Majesty... What you hold in your arms is the only royal blood that is not under the control of Ni Wang... You have also heard the story of Emperor Xuan of Han... Of course, the premise of these futures is that we can and The Ye family formed an alliance and successfully escaped from the palace."

"Mother, I'm the one who lost my temper just now?"

Pei Ling'er said unhappily, although she was persuaded, her inner demons were hard to get rid of, and she felt itchy with hatred at the thought of having to bow to Fu Lici.

"Only by being patient for a while can we have a long-term plan. As long as the emperor's son can ascend the throne, all the sacrifices and retreats are worth it!"

Mrs. Jinyang Hou said angrily, Pei Ling'er is so difficult to become a master, it really makes her hate iron for steel!If it weren't for her being a virtuous concubine and the difference in status between mother and daughter, Mrs. Peihou would have slapped her in the face long ago!

Can ridiculous dignity compare to a luxurious dragon chair?
Thinking of this, she cheered up again, and bewitched her: "Ling'er, you have to remember that we have nowhere to go when things have come to this point. As long as we pay a little bit of dignity, we can get the Ye family's love." A powerful ally...why insist? Dignity doesn't make you a queen dowager."

"But--"

Pei Linger's knot was touched again, she looked at Mrs. Pei Hou conflictingly, she suddenly found that the lady in front of her was so strange.

Maybe I'm not her own flesh and blood, she thought to herself, this kind of thing is not uncommon in the backyard of a wealthy family, it is very common for an innocent mistress to take away the children of the concubine's room.Some concubines would rack their brains to find ways to beg the mistress to accept the child.

The sudden thought made Pei Ling'er pay more attention. Looking back carefully on the past, she realized that the probability that she was not Mrs. Pei Hou's own flesh and blood was close to [-]% to [-]%. What mother would be willing to train her child to look like someone else!

Pity my biological mother, I'm afraid her bones are rotten into mud.

Pei Ling'er was originally sensitive, suspicious and self-pitying. Looking at Mrs. Jinyang Hou with this thought, she was already disgusting.

Fortunately, she knew that this speculation had no basis and could only be buried in her heart.What's more, although Mrs. Jinyang Hou's suggestion is selfish, it is the only way to overcome the current difficulties, so after some deep thinking, she nodded.

"Mother, don't worry, I will ask her to discuss it in detail in a few days... I just hope she won't forget the duty of a monarch and minister when she sees that I have something to ask of her."

……

……

For a long time, the Turkic people have lived in the cold outside the Great Wall, and the harsh environment has honed warriors with amazing will, and it is their nature to be aggressive.Although there is a royal court, there are still constant disputes among the various tribes. Only the loyalty to Changshengtian can unite the descendants of this group of wolves.

In their belief, Wangcheng is the closest place to Changshengtian. When Wangcheng fell, the grassland fell into darkness.

When news of Emperor Xie's actions in Wangcheng came out, Turkic, who had been beaten to death, decided to grit his teeth and stand up.

Rumor has it that Emperor Xie intends to set the royal city on fire!
Xie's army traveled all the way, committing all sorts of crimes, including rape and looting, but after entering the royal city, Emperor Xie issued an order. He forbade his soldiers from violating women or plundering wealth. He asked them to turn the royal city into a dead city!

He wants to burn the entire royal city!To be buried with his wife!
Emperor Xie announced that the creatures living in the royal city, no matter men, women or even animals, are the funeral objects of Empress Xie, and the sacred objects enshrined in the Longevity Heaven will adorn Empress Xie's coffin, and accompany her to ascend into the kingdom of heaven in green smoke.More than 20 wizards were killed for refusing to preside over the blasphemous funeral.They are the most intelligent wizards in the grassland. They are old and wise and live in Wangcheng all the year round, interpreting the will of Changshengtian for the grassland.

Cruelty is no longer enough to describe what Emperor Xie has done. He is blaspheming the gods. The entire grassland and even the whole world will be punished by the Longevity Heaven for his evil!

The Turks decided to fight back.

Days of blizzards made Xie's logistics and transportation more difficult. Although Xie's army had given up its plan to go deeper into the grassland, the Turkic people who had been violated in the holy land did not want to wait for the severe winter, so Xie took the initiative to retreat.Driven by hunger and hatred, the Turks started continuous attacks on the Xie army's logistics supplies.

The pure light cavalry raided overnight, aiming to kill Xie's army and rob food. Almost every battle ended within half an hour.Although Xie's army guarded the logistics more strictly, and the transportation of food and grass was also full of wooden sticks with Turkic corpses hanging on them, the Turkic people were already red-eyed, and they were not afraid of anything!
The fire of vengeance is sweeping across the grassland like a prairie fire.

Successive victories in guerrilla warfare made Azerbaikero, the number one warrior in the royal court, think of a bold battle plan to forge the news of the gathering of the tribes and attract the troops of the Xie Kingdom. With an exciting victory, he aroused the bloodiness of the Turkic people. .

Sure enough, although Xiao Zhiqian had no plan to occupy and rule the grassland, Xiao Zhiqian, who was preparing for an unprecedented grand funeral, received the news that the Turkic people were gathering their last strength for a dying struggle, and sent an old general and tens of thousands of soldiers to suppress it.

Then, the army disappeared.

They entered the snow mountain under the conscious guidance of the Turks.

Because of the ruggedness and coldness of the snow-capped mountains, the marching speed became slower and slower, and the team itself gradually lengthened. When Xie's army was tired, the Turks launched an attack.Countless bows and arrows were fired, and the unsuspecting soldiers of Xie Army fell down one after another.Fortunately, the soldiers were well-trained and responded quickly after encountering a sudden attack. However, they forgot that this was a snow-capped mountain area, and there was simply not enough space for them to form formations in the snow-capped mountain area.What's more, the snow mountain also comes with a deadly threat: avalanche.

The Turks set off an avalanche.

Thousands of years of ice and snow have toppled mountains and seas. Under such coercion, the power of human beings is so small that it can be ignored.Less than [-] people escaped from the avalanche, and when they rolled and crawled into the open area, what awaited them was the machete of the Turkic cavalry.

The Turkic people, who had been in a passive position since the beginning of the war, shouted for longevity and rushed out from all directions, forcing the soldiers of the Xie army to fight and retreat with the instinct formed by years of hard training.Under the sharp offensive of the Turks, the Xie army, which had been weakened repeatedly, was no match at all. The veteran leading the army committed suicide in despair, and all the remaining Xie army died in battle, and no one survived.

Since then, Azerbaikero's name has officially entered the history books.
