atypical prostitute

Chapter 266
Regardless of how much grief Jinyanghou's drowning brought to Pei Ling'er, and how angry her younger brother smashed the king's forehead at night, the secret edict has been issued, and brothers Pei Jiong and Pei Qing responded quickly.

In July, it was the scorching midsummer, and the news that Qingzhou Chief Pei Qingcong's elder brother Pei Jiong had received a secret order from the Queen Mother to rebel against the Qing emperor woke up the Xie dynasty who were chattering about Ye's being crowned king.

Pei Jionggui was Marquis of Shu, in charge of the military affairs of the prefectures of Xiang, Wei, Li, Marsh, Bei, Zhao, Ji, Ying, and Cang. Hundreds of thousands of people.

The governor of Yingzhou, the governor of Shenzhou, and the general manager of Xuzhou all had gaps with the king of Wei. After receiving the letter, according to the state's response, the guard of Huaicheng offered the city. Under the control of Pei Jiong, Pei Jiong then divided his troops into two groups, the left route went north and west, trapped Julu, Jianzhou, Luzhou, Dongjun, Caozhou, Bozhou, Yongzhou and other places, pointed his sword at Chang'an, and sent his only son to lead the army south to contain Yangzhou At the same time, he sent envoys to Yinzhou to recruit Ye Shi.However, the patriarch of the Ye clan is so old and cunning, they know that although Ye Chuan is a side branch, he is in full swing and close to the Prince Regent.As long as Ye Chuan, who is far away in Chang'an, does not express his opinion, they will always have an ambiguous attitude and stand on the sidelines.

Pei Jiong didn't care about the Ye family's ambiguous answer. He knew that the Ye family had been passed down for thousands of years. If they didn't have enough skills, they would have disappeared in the political strife long ago.

As long as he wins a few more times, the imperial court will give Ye Chuan a king with a different surname, and the Ye family will eventually stand by His Majesty's side.

Once the Ye family's support is lost, the regent who has no authority will certainly not be afraid.

In the military tent, Pei Jiong, who completely forgot that he had chased and killed Wei Xiao, who was close to Mrs. Ye, under the order of his cousin, fell asleep deeply with longing for the future.

……

……

While Pei Jiong was sleeping soundly, thousands of miles away in Chang'an City, there were still several lights that were as bright as day, and they were always vigilant to the surrounding politicians like hungry wolves. or the neck of a companion.

Zhao Wang and Yue Wang were not exempt from customs.

Like most ambitious people, they disguised themselves and came to a hidden village in the suburbs of Beijing on this night when the thunderstorm was approaching, drinking and discussing the political situation.

Those who attended the secret banquet were all the leaders of the Emperor faction, but there were also quite a few people who chose to be absent. They were all in the Princess's mansion and accompanied their wives to the flower banquet.

King Zhao and King Yue didn't care about this either.

The news of the rebellion has already spread to the capital, and Chang'an is full of soldiers.Although Ye Chuan declared that he would not participate in party struggles, he is a powerful man with a large army in his hands, and his every move may affect the court situation.At this embarrassing moment, the eldest princess, who had an affair with both the Ye family and the Emperor's sect, suddenly saw the huge and beautiful lotus blooming, and on a whim, held a flower banquet for the wives. The meaning of it was self-evident.

The women sat in the pavilion laughing and laughing, while the men whispered in the study.

Choose to go to the eldest princess's mansion for a banquet, or to attend the secret meeting of the emperor's sect?

King Zhao and King Yue are not surprised that some people have two heads. The key to the success or failure of Brother Pei Jiong's rebellion is the Ye family.It is no exaggeration to say that whoever the Ye family chooses will be the final winner!

But the Ye family has not made a statement so far.

The Ye family is waiting for the imperial edict to confer a king with a different surname.

The wooing that could have been achieved with just a piece of edict, but because of Pei Linger's stupidity and stubbornness, it has become the current situation!
King Yue thought angrily, as the leader of the Emperor faction, he had always been proud of his calmness, but Pei Ling'er always seemed to be able to arouse his anger easily.

She is getting more and more arrogant!
Snapped!
With a soft sound, King Yue closed the cypress folding fan, and the guests stopped their chopsticks after hearing the sound.The steward standing at the door stepped forward, leading the concubines who were singing and dancing to cheer up the fun, and tactfully persuaded them to drink. In the blink of an eye, only the men were left in Yingying Yanyan's hall, and the wealthy families were under cover, guarded by armor.

The King of Yue looked around and saw the serious faces of the people, so he got up, held a good wine, and said in a loud voice: "Recently, the court has been constantly raining and raining, and you must have heard of it."

Those who sat down nodded in agreement.

The King of Yue said again: "Three days ago, the Marquis of Shu raised troops to serve the King, and the local government responded like a broken bamboo. We are loyal to Your Majesty, and we should have raised our troops to respond, but the Empress Dowager is narrow-minded and cronyistic, and the Pei family is arrogant and domineering, and has no law!"

Having said that, he paused for a moment, pointed to the white cloth on his finger, and said: "When the country is in crisis, personal grievances should be forgotten. But the Pei family is really deceiving people too much! Besides, it is obvious based on calculations. As early as When we were planning to win over the Ye Family as King, the Empress Dowager planned to send Pei Jiong an army on the side of the Qing Emperor!"

"Yes, if this matter is not led by the Pei family, Xiao Wang will return to the fief at the cost of his life and lead the army to respond." Zhao Wang stood up and echoed.

The people who sat down were also excited.

Yu Wenhui, the governor of Liuzhou, said even louder: "Wang Yongzhou, the elder of the three dynasties, was pissed to death by this woman! We are willing to raise troops to respond to the Marquis of Shu, but the Queen Mother must return to the deep palace from now on and stop interfering in political affairs!"

"Not only does the Queen Mother have to return to the deep palace, but also the Heavenly Master must be severely punished!" Lord Le An shouted. As the second married husband of Princess Anle, he should not be entangled with the Ye family, but he is not clear about the entanglement between the Queen Mother and Chu Qing. , also intolerable.

An Legong's voice was approved by almost everyone, especially the officials who had good friends with Wang Xian.

The name of Pei Jiong's rebellion this time is the Qing emperor's side, but the biggest moth around the emperor is Pei Ling'er and his clan who act recklessly relying on the status of queen mother!
"But the Empress Dowager may not listen to our advice. She is carrying our secret decree, Pei Jiong, clearly planning to let Pei Jiong enter Beijing and eradicate us together with King Wei!"

Taiyuan Li Mu said bitterly, he has no selfish grievances with the Pei family, he doesn't like the Empress Dowager just because this woman is greedy and stupid.

And his speech was echoed by everyone more quickly.

The fact that Wei Xiao was chased and killed by Pei Jiong just because of his close relationship with the Ye family is well known in the capital.

Thinking of the empress dowager being so vicious, some officials who had been lucky had also secretly made a decision.

The Empress Dowager is indeed not a woman with a motherly heart. If the Pei family enters Chang'an successfully, they will probably kill all of Wei Wang's party, and all those officials who are dissatisfied with the Empress Dowager Pei will be dealt with as traitors!

Even if they turn their guns and seek refuge with Queen Mother Pei now, most of them can only be left alone for the time being.

"Pei Jiong raised troops in the name of the Qing emperor, but who can guarantee that he will not be the next Wang Mang?"

In the seats, a low sigh of unknown origin caused everyone to bow their heads and remain silent.

Indeed, if things really develop as the queen mother hoped, and Pei Jiong successfully leads the "army of justice" into the capital and kills all the officials who oppose the Pei family, then what will happen next?
Now being restrained by various forces, Pei Ling'er has repeatedly acted arrogantly.If the Pei Jiong brothers enter Beijing, the Pei family will have absolute power, and they—

Dong Zhuo entered Beijing under the banner of Qing Emperor!
Before Wang Mang usurped power, he was also known as a famous minister through the ages!
Who can guarantee that Pei Jiong is not Dong Zhuo, and who dares to say that Pei Jiong does not want to emulate Wang Mang?
