retaliate

Chapter 1455 The sunset is infinitely good

Accompanied by Zhao Shen, the guard of Yongzhou, King Qin went to the top of the city.

Standing on the top of the city and looking up, there are corpses all over the place where they fought.

Turning his eyes, he saw that all of them were captives.

"A lot of cavalry escaped, but most of the infantry were left behind."

Han Ji said softly, "In addition, Han Bi's staff were also captured."

"Just ask questions." Qin Wang put his hands on the top of the city, "After this battle, even if there are some people in Bianjing, they will be frightened. It will be very lively."

"Ah Liang?" King Qin saw a limping man behind his son.

A horned dragon guard came up and said: "Your Highness, this person is an eunuch of the Southern Zhou Dynasty who begged Lord Dalang before."

"Southern Zhou eunuch?"

Han Ji turned around and said in a low voice, "Bring it here."

A guard trotted down out of the city to find A Liang, and saluted, "Mr. Da Lang, Your Highness wants to ask this person to ask questions."

Ah Liang nodded.

Chen Guan followed the guards into the city, and it was quite difficult to go up the steps.

"Do you want to help?" the guard asked casually, he felt that the prisoner didn't have the guts.

"Thank you very much!" Chen Guan cupped his hands happily.

Hey!
The guard carried him up with a dark face.

Seeing King Qin, Chen Guan hurriedly knelt down, because his thigh was injured and he couldn't control his body well, so he threw himself down in front of King Qin.

"You're all over the ground, you've passed." King Qin said with a smile.

Chen Guan propped himself up, "His Majesty is so mighty, the slaves can't help themselves..."

"It's not a bad thing to be smart, but you have to know when to be honest and when to be smart." King Qin glanced at him.

"Yes." Chen Guan was surprised, then overjoyed.

What surprised him was the warning in King Qin's words: If you dare to deceive Ah Liang in the future, be careful.But the joy is that King Qin agreed to follow A Liang.

After the big defeat, he knew that Da Zhou was over.The big week is over, both civil and military have a place to go, but he is very embarrassed as a servant.

There is a high probability that the Imperial Palace of the Southern Zhou Dynasty will be reduced to a temporary palace, but King Qin is far away in Chang'an, how can he have the time to travel all the way here?
Therefore, it is estimated that most of the maids in the palace will be dismissed.

It's okay for the palace lady, if she doesn't want to go home, according to the convention, she will be betrothed to a lieutenant in the army, which can be regarded as a good destination, at least better than waiting to die in the palace.

But the servant had nowhere to go.There is no shortage of servants in Chang'an, what can they do outside the palace?
Most people can only find a job, linger on their last days, and live alone for the rest of their lives.Just thinking about these days is depressing.

A Liang is the eldest son of the King of Qin, and the King of Qin took him by his side to follow the conquest, which shows how much he values ​​this son.If there is no accident, it is probably the future prince.

Being able to follow the prince is a leap in status for Chen Guan.

So, he was grateful.

"How is the relationship between the monarch and his ministers in the Southern Zhou Dynasty?" King Qin asked.

Chen Guan calmed down and thought about it carefully.

This serious attitude made King Qin nod his head slightly.The king of Qin didn't care about A Liang accepting a Southern Zhou servant.In his opinion, he is just a servant.If it's not right, dismiss it.

"Report to Your Highness." Chen Guan said: "Since the fall of Jinzhou, there have been many disputes between the court and China. After Han Xiang led the army to go out, Peng Jing and others took advantage of the situation and impeached Han Xiang and his party. Giving it to Peng Jing and others to avoid turmoil in the court...Before the servants left, His Majesty summoned Peng Jing and others' enemies."

Not many words, but enough information.

Han Ji said: "It seems that the Southern Zhou monarch and his ministers are already at war."

"Those so-called gentlemen, after tearing off their masks, are more frightening than villains." He Lianrong sighed: "The more they flaunt themselves, the more they lack. The so-called gentlemen are actually villains."

Han Ji nodded, "Exactly."

"If you are not a king or a minister, it seems that the strength of the Southern Zhou Dynasty is exhausted." King Qin waved his hand, "Go!"

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Chen Guan went happily.

Ning Yayun frowned, "This waiter looks a little bit off, don't you worry about affecting Ah Liang?"

"Ah Liang has been like a little adult since he was four years old, which made Gu Gu lose a lot of the fun of being a father. It's not a bad thing to have many escaped people around him. It would be better if he could become more lively."

"You are weird." Ning Yayun shook her head, "Don't talk about princes, even those parents of powerful families, or even parents of ordinary people, who doesn't want their children to be stable from an early age? You think it's not good to be stable. "

"It's not bad." Qin Wang said: "The child's nature is lively and lonely, and he doesn't want to let A Liang suppress his nature because of his status."

"Weird!" Ning Yayun couldn't agree with King Qin's unique views on education.

"Your Highness!" The skinny elder came.

"Where is the second child?" King Qin asked.

"Second brother said to go to Yingshui for a walk."

Qin Wang smiled and said: "Gu is looking forward to the excitement in Bianjing."

……

The messenger brought news that the decisive battle was about to begin, and Nian Xu called a group of ministers to discuss.

"Han Bi means that this battle will be divided into fives and fives."

Nian Xu seemed to be in good spirits, but when he glanced over Peng Jing and the others, he became slightly cold.

Fang Chong said: "Your Majesty, how about reinforcements!"

"My minister agrees!"

"My minister agrees!"

More than ten officials seconded the proposal.

But Nian Xu said indifferently: "Han Bi said, there is no need."

Peng Jing gave Fang Chong a wink, and after the officials resigned later, the two went out side by side.

"Your Majesty is suspicious of us." Fang Chong said, "The old man's previous suggestion to reinforce Han Bi was just a temptation. Your Majesty did not agree because he was worried that we would control us without the army around us."

"Your Majesty's thinking like this makes the old man very sad." Peng Jing sighed, and suddenly asked: "If Han Bi triumphs, what will happen to you and me?"

Fang Chong said calmly: "He came back under the momentum. Your Majesty ordered you and me to be taken down. Who would dare to question it? But in order to check and balance Han Bi, after taking down you and me, the officials of our party will get reuse."

"They will re-elect the leader, and you and I will be forgotten." Peng Jing smiled.

"So, what do you think?" Fang Chong looked sideways at Peng Jing, his eyes flickering.

"Don't think about treason! That's stupid!" Peng Jing said in a low voice: "The Nian clan has not lost his virtue. Although the people in Bianjing City mentioned His Majesty, they didn't say they were full of praise, but no one said he was a fool. If To rebel at this moment is to be a street rat."

"How did this old man ever say treason!" Fang Chong lowered his eyes.

"There is no best!" Peng Jing said: "Now everything has to wait for the result of Han Bi's battle."

"Even if Han Bi is defeated, retreating to Yingshui's side is still not to be underestimated." Fang Chong said: "With an army in hand, His Majesty has to rely on him."

"Impeachment, seize the military power!" Peng Jing said flatly: "How dare a defeated general speak bravely? We have seized the military power, let's protect Bianjing!"

Fang Chong stopped and looked at Peng Jing blankly.

"you……"

This motherfucker didn't want to rebel to be damned!

Peng Jing shook his head, "Isn't it good to be a powerful minister? You have to rebel, and if you fail to rebel, you will be stigmatized forever. You and I are gentlemen after all!"

Fang Chong smiled, "It's extreme, it's extreme, how can a gentleman rebel? Hahahaha!"

"Hahahaha!"

The two laughed out loud.

A servant looked at them coldly outside the hall, and then went in.

"Your Majesty, Peng Jing and Fang Chong discussed secretly all the way and laughed loudly."

Nian Xu stood up, "Those two dare not rebel, but they have the ambition to be powerful ministers."

Xie Yingong said: "Your Majesty, people's ambitions are endless, and desires are hard to fill!"

"I know." Nian Xu walked down the steps, "When Han Bi returns, I will take Peng Jing down and leave Fang Chong behind."

Xie Yingong was stunned, "Your Majesty, keeping Fang Chong behind is a disaster!"

"Peng Jing seems to be generous, but in fact he is ambitious, and the city is far deeper than Fang Chong. This person cannot stay." Nian Xu walked out, "Although Fang Chong is full of intrigues, his prestige is not enough. When the time comes, I will be among them Pull a group, fight a group, let them have internal disputes, and then divide and conquer."

"Your Majesty is wise."

Nian Xu went to the harem.

The queen was a little worried these days, and when she saw him coming, she asked, "Is there any news about the great war?"

"It's still early." Nian Xu made some, and a court lady served tea. He took a sip of tea, "Han Bi is a veteran general, even if he loses, he can retreat slowly. Go back to Yingshui to stop the northern army . Peace of mind!"

The Queen breathed a sigh of relief.

The husband and wife immediately talked about some small things...

……

More than ten riders arrived outside the city of Bianjing.

"Stop, check your identity!"

shouted the sergeant guarding the city.

"No!" Someone said, "Look at their armor!"

Among the ten or so riders, the leader was a general, many places on his body were stained with black blood, he was in a state of distress, and his eyes showed fear and despair.

"The old man wants to meet His Majesty!" the general panted.

"This is..." The sergeant asked tentatively, "But is there something important?"

"Failed!"

Da da da!
The general rode his horse into the city, and the soldiers at the city gate stood still.

"Hey! Can't you check the villain's goods?" A businessman asked.

No one answered him.

The sergeants stared blankly ahead.

It seemed that the next moment, a group of ferocious beasts would rush out of there.

The general went all the way to the imperial city and checked his identity again.

"Don't ask!" The general's face was livid, and he regretted leaking the news at the city gate.

Immediately, Nian Xu received the news that a general under Han Bi's command asked to see him.

"This is..." Nian Xu stood up, "I'll go and have a look."

The queen moved: "Your Majesty is busy first, by the way, what would Your Majesty want for dinner?"

"You can figure it out!" Nian Xu waved his hand.

When the general entered the city, it happened to be the time when he was preparing to go to the government, and there were many officials outside.

He was in a mess, and there was a smell of blood while walking, which made people look sideways.

Peng Jing, who was packing up the paperwork, was taken aback when he received the news, "If it's a big victory, Han Bi will definitely make people fanfare and shout all the way. Is this... a defeat?"

He hurried out and happened to meet Fang Chong.

"Han Bi is definitely defeated. Remember, a defeated general is not brave enough. Impeach Han Bi later and seize military power!" Peng Jing confessed.

The two asked to see each other before they arrived at the palace.

When it's time to go down to the Yamen, no one goes home.

All the officials gathered in front of the palace, waiting silently.

After some time, Xie Yingong came out.

Behind him is the general who reported the message. At this moment, the general looked at him with a sense of relief.

Xie Yingong immediately brought Peng Jing and others into the palace.

After entering the main hall, he saw Nian Xu sitting there blankly. After hearing footsteps, he slowly raised his head.

"Han Bi was defeated and died!"

"Where's the army?" Fang Chong asked in a hiss.

"Most wiped out!"

Without the army, how can Bianjing defend?
In the hall, everyone lost interest in speaking.

After a long time, an old minister said in a trembling voice: "The building will fall! The building will fall!"

Outside, an unsuspecting servant pointed to the sky and praised: "The sunset is so beautiful!"
