Chapter 273 Absurd reality, more magical than a storybook

Everything that happened in Cuiwei Palace is unknown to outsiders.

But the turmoil of the crown prince taking command has spread from the previous dynasty to the entire upper circle of the capital.

The Southern Expedition is already a certainty, and the prince will be in command. Although the coach is Wei Huang, the prince only has the title of deputy commander, but who doesn’t know that this deputy commander is actually the commander to a certain extent?

Of course, the so-called “certain level”, how far it can go, ultimately depends on the prince’s performance during the battle on the front line.

The status quo of Qi State was also sent to Wei Jing non-stop in secret reports one after another.

Ever since last autumn, when the Wang clan raised their banners to rebel, Qi State has been in complete chaos.

The tyrants from all over the country established their own names one after another and separated one side.

Those who are more particular, still respect the royal family of Qi State on the surface, but just listen to the tune and not listen to the announcement, giving each other a room for maneuver.

And those who are direct and rude, simply proclaim themselves kings: what kind of King of Ming Dynasty, King of Heaven, King of Storms, etc., don’t care about him, there is no source, and one is the other.

Anyway, the hills are raised, and the troubled times are divided, and the winner is king.

Of course, in this chaotic situation, all kinds of magical things emerge in endlessly.

As a result, the way of assassins is also prevalent in Qi State, where chivalrous use of martial arts is banned, and where the official power is weak, martial artists with unique skills are shining sparks in this chaotic river.

At the beginning, Cheng Ling went deep into the army tent, assassinated the King of Linhai at a banquet, and then retreated from the thousands of troops. These deeds seem to have opened the curtain of the era of assassins in Qi State.

Since then, there have been two more incidents of courtesan feasting and killing, and two assassins died.

Even Wang Yong, the former governor of Yunchuan County and now the King of Daming, was assassinated several times during banquets.

It’s just that Wang Yong has a lot of experts around him, and he himself is cautious enough, so these assassinations all ended in failure.

But the King of Storms, who ruled in the eastern part of the Qi Kingdom, was mysteriously killed in the middle of the night.

There was a gossip that said that he was the son of the Storm King, because he was unwilling to compete with his father for the same beauty, and he was unwilling to do anything, so he planned to assassinate the Storm King.

In this way, after the Storm King died, Shi Lianhai would inherit his father’s business and become the new Storm King. Oh, no, Shi Lianhai claims to be the king of Yue, the one-character king is stronger than the two-character king, and the Yue king also thinks he is stronger than the storm king.

Naturally, the Mei Ji who was fought over by father and son is now in King Yue’s tent again.

Whether this matter is true or not is actually difficult to determine, after all, King Yue has never admitted to killing his father. The forces of the King of Yue only claimed to the outside world that the King of Storms died suddenly because of illness.

However, this kind of serious announcement is never as exciting as gossip. In many people’s minds, they are still more inclined to believe the theory of “killing the father”.

Including the Meiji who appeared in this incident, she is now famous all over the world.

According to rumors, this woman was born in a merchant, and was originally the concubine of Liu, the governor of Hushan County, named Chun Ji. Later, because of her beauty, she was given to Shi Lianhai, the son of the storm king, by Liu.

Shi Lianhai brought Chunji back to Dongjun, but failed to keep the beauty, and instead was included by the King of Storms.

As for why Liu, who owned Chun Ji in the first place, didn’t deserve to have a name, it was because he had been stolen by the neighboring county guard as early as the beginning of the chaos in Qi State, and the whole clan was directly wiped out. And took it.

In troubled times, a small force like this that was wiped out without even being able to stir up a splash, isn’t it just that it doesn’t deserve a name?

Anyone who is a hero may have a bright future today, but blood will be spattered tomorrow.

On the contrary, it was Chun Ji, who gained a good reputation in the whole world because of such experiences.

Fame, as the name suggests, is a reputation for beauty.

How beautiful a person must be to be able to move between the princes of the separatist party like this, and attract father and son to fight, and still be loved so much?

It is said that this Chun Ji is even quite prestigious in the power of the King of Yue now.

Later, the King of Yue took the army to Hushan County, and drove out the “next-door county guard” who killed Liu Mou from Hushan County. Since then, he has occupied one more county and became a big warlord who owns four counties.

Wang Yong, who started the rebellion at the beginning, even opened the gate of the capital of Qi State in his heyday, and fought all the way to the palace of the Qi State Palace.

That was last August.

If that time Wang Yong was able to break through the Miyagi in one go, expelling or even killing the Sima clan, then Wang Yong’s change of dynasty might be at that time.

Unfortunately, at the critical moment, Wang Yong failed to break through Miyagi. Instead, it was Empress Dowager Xu who made a decisive decision, ordered the close-fitting expert guards, and took the little emperor through the secret passage of the palace, and ran away overnight.

When Wang Yong broke through the palace city and entered the Xuanzheng Palace, he didn’t catch any important people.

Oh, not at all.

Even though Empress Dowager Xu and the little emperor escaped, Liang Cheng, the grand master who was originally in power, was beheaded by Wang Yong at that time. His head was hung on the city wall of the capital, exposed to the wind and sun, and insulted by countless eyes.

Wang Yong counted Liang Cheng’s thirty major crimes, and nailed him to the pillar of shame as a traitor.

Wang Yong first entered Beijing under the banner of the Qing emperor. Although “Jun” has run away now, the traitors on Jun’s side still have to be cleaned up.

Grand Master Liang Cheng is the head of this treacherous sycophant, if he is not cleaned up, how will he explain to the world?

Afterwards, Wang Yong proclaimed himself the King of Ming Dynasty and temporarily supervised the regent of the country.

The Empress Dowager Xu and the little emperor who escaped were taken in by Sima Chong who had been guarding Tianyuan Pass. Sima Chong is not a direct descendant of the royal family, nor was he crowned king before. However, he guards Tianyuan Pass, and his actual strength is not weaker than that of Linhai King back then.

After Empress Dowager Xu and the little emperor took refuge in Sima Chong, the little emperor named Sima Chong the Heavenly King in the name of the emperor, and also called Sima Chong the sub-father.

When Wang Yong first attacked the capital, he probably had the idea of ​​coercing the emperor to order the princes, and planned to gradually gather the power of Qi through the regent.

In the end, it turned out that Empress Dowager Xu just ran away with the little emperor, and the last benefit of “holding the emperor to command the princes” was instead picked up by Sima Chong for nothing.

Later, Wang Yong also publicly published many times, saying that he would welcome the emperor and the queen mother to return to the court. Unfortunately, neither the queen mother Xu nor the little emperor could listen to his nonsense.

He just opened the gate of the capital city, do you see if the Empress Dowager Xu and the little emperor dare to enter the capital?

The situation in Qi State became stalemate like this.

The big aspect is that the three major forces are divided into three ways. In fact, various small forces are interspersed between the three major forces, but their influence should not be underestimated.

The most frightening thing is that the world is in chaos, the war is too fierce, the people lose their land, and the refugees are everywhere. The real state of Qi has become a melting pot like a purgatory!

Now that Wei State wants to harvest Qi State into its territory, how should it start?
