Aspiring to the Ten Kingdoms

Chapter 306 Insight into ambition
Bianjing, another courtyard in the north of the city.

Fu Yanqing put the teacup heavily on the stone table: "This bastard, who has become fat and bullied my daughter of Fu Yanqing? Guo Qiong, bring my pigeons, I want to send you my pigeons with thin legs. "

Just as Luo Youdu guessed.

After Fu Yanqing noticed that Guo Rong had withdrawn from the front line and behaved abnormally, he first arranged for his wife to go south in the name of visiting her daughter.

As a general in charge of the army, Fu Yanqing was not allowed to enter Beijing until he received an order.

But Fu Yanqing's wife is not listed here.

Fu Yanqing herself was not an honest and obedient master. After learning that Guo Rong was really ill, she quietly lurked into Bianjing and lived in the mansion of Jinwu General Guo Qiong.

Guo Qiong is a native of Lulong, Pingzhou. He is known for his bravery. Because the Khitan captured Pingzhou, it was during the Tiancheng period, that is, the Later Tang Dynasty.The Khitan seized Pingzhou, and Guo Qiong was forced to join the Khitan army as the commander of the Han capital.

Guo Qiong was unwilling to serve the Khitan, so his family defected to the Later Tang, where he was discovered by the Khitan and hunted down along the way.

Fu Yanqing coincided with the meeting and led his troops to rescue Guo Qiong's family.

Guo Qiong is loyal, otherwise he would not give up his power as the commander of the Han Dynasty and lead his people to the Central Plains.

Guo Qiong worked under Fu Yanqing for several years, and was recommended by Fu Yanqing to Li Siyuan. He made great strides all the way, defeated the people of Shu, ordered to attack Wenzhou, and fought against Shuofang. Later, he followed Fu Yanqing in the battle of Yangcheng and defeated Khitan.

After many dynasties, Guo Qiong now serves as the general of Jinwu in Bianjing.

Fu Yanqing's temper as an old warlord is the biggest in the world.He didn't mean to go against Zhou, but he was afraid that something might happen to Guo Rong or Beijing, which would affect him.

After all, along the way, Fu Yanqing is no stranger to various coups. Who dares to say that Guo Rong will be able to secure the throne?
Who can guarantee that Li Chongjin and Zhang Yongde will suddenly have a mutiny?
Fu Yanqing has been in the army for many years, and has countless subordinates and friends. It is easy to find a few people in Beijing to deliver news.

Guo Qiong is one of them.

Guo Qiong had no achievements in the Later Zhou Dynasty, but he had a high status and qualifications in the Later Tang, Later Jin, Later Han and Da Zhou lines. It is still very easy to hide a person and investigate a little news.

Today he told Fu Yanqing the news he got.

It turned out that after Fan Zhi left the Hall of Yanhe, his heart was not going well, so he summoned some of his confidants and jointly signed a letter of opposition, trying to force Empress Fu to withdraw her order.

Fu Yanqing's temperament was defensive, and he was so angry that one Buddha was born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven, so he directly asked Guo Qiong to use the method of flying pigeons to transport his two big dogs, ready to bite people.

Guo Qiong knew Fu Yanqing's character, so he really didn't just talk about it, so he really wrote a letter to tease the dog.

After doing all this, Guo Qiong came to Fu Yanqing's side and said, "King Wei, what should we do next?"

Fu Yanqing said: "Continue to pay attention to the movement in the capital. If there is any danger, it will be tonight. After tonight is over safely, when the old man and the second son-in-law come back, everything will be settled, and no one will be able to make waves in the capital. This chaos is due to the restlessness of the Zhao family kid. He didn’t stand up at the critical moment, thinking about the bastard thing of intrigue, which gave Fan the old bastard the capital of his arrogance. After tonight, everything will be fine.”

**********
Night, outside Wende Hall.

Zhang Dejun stood upright, striding forward, very serious.

As an eunuch, Zhang Dejun didn't show any femininity, on the contrary, he was unusually tall and majestic, but his appearance was a bit ugly.

He was from Shanzhou, his original surname was Wang, Xiande entered the palace in his early years, and was adopted by a servant named Zhang in the palace as his adopted son, named Dejun.

Relying on the relationship of this servant, Zhang Dejun got by Empress Fu's side in just five years.

Empress Fu strode out of the room, glanced at Zhang Dejun who was practicing horse stance, and said, "Go order the kitchen to bring a bowl of porridge, I'm a little hungry."

Zhang Dejun hastily withdrew his airs and took orders to leave.

Walking on the road of Shangshi Bureau, Zhang Dejun's eyes flashed with doubts, the saint had his dinner, why is he hungry again?
With some curiosity, he made porridge from Shangshi Bureau and returned to Wende Hall.

Walking into the hall and coming to the apse, he dared not enter, and called out from outside: "Saint, the porridge is here."

Empress Fu came out, took the food box, and said, "You go to the front hall and wait, the Palace will call you if something happens."

Zhang Dejun bowed and left.

Empress Fu did not return to the hall, but watched Zhang Dejun leave the apse corridor before turning around and entering the hall.

"Your Majesty, you haven't eaten all day, please drink some porridge."

Empress Fu personally fed gruel to Guo Rong.

Guo Rong only ate a little bit and couldn't eat any more. He turned his head and said, "I have nothing to do, just read today's memorial."

Just from Queen Fu's mouth, Guo Rong already knew how Fan Zhi fought back.

But he is not in a hurry to deal with it. This kind of pediatric method is completely nothing to worry about.

As long as Luo Youdu enters Beijing, Empress Fu will have a strong backing, let alone Fan Zhi, even if Fan Zhi, Wang Pu, and Wei Renpu are all three prime ministers, it will not have much impact.

Of course, he can also become the backing of Empress Fu, as long as he said a word when he was awake, he could easily solve Fan Zhi.But he didn't have the energy to deal with the series of problems that would arise from Fan Zhi's future.

And doing it by yourself will not be of any benefit to Empress Fu.Because Yu Wei was with him, Empress Fu was just pretending to be a tiger...

It's better to wait a day and let Fan Zhi be more arrogant.

Empress Fu had Luo Youdu's support, so it was easy to deal with Fan Zhi.

At that time, Luo Youdu was supporting, and it was Empress Fu who really made the decision, who could give Empress Fu a good reputation.

Is there any better way to gain power than to kill a prime minister?
For Da Zhou, Guo Rong was really exhausted.

Empress Fu sighed softly, reading today's memorial carefully.

Guo Rong listened on the sidelines, and gave his own opinions from time to time, so that Empress Fu would remember.

Because he found that Empress Fu was still too benevolent.

As a queen, as long as benevolence is enough.

But as the empress dowager who listens to politics behind the curtain, she must be authoritative when dealing with things.

Blindly being benevolent will only make the courtiers fearless of the emperor's prestige.

Empress Fu expressed her understanding, and went on to say that it was derived from a memorial from the Privy Council: "The navy has made great contributions to this campaign, and Lin Renzhao, the deputy commander of the navy, can be appointed as the commander of the Jianghuai navy to garrison Chaohu."

As soon as Empress Fu said this, Guo Rong felt a sharp pain in his head. He held his head in both hands, and said in a low voice through gritted teeth: "No, Zhao Kuangyin has already colluded with Fan Zhi. Zhao Kuangyin has turned his back..."

Guo Rong did not object to Zhao Kuangyin's struggle for power with Luo Youdu, but he colluded with Fan Zhi, and the two worked together to deal with Luo Youdu, and even tampered with his orders, so it was not simply a fight for the first place.

There are [-] naval divisions in the Great Zhou, and it is the only army in the Great Zhou that can be incorporated into the Imperial Army Division to make up for the gap with the Dianqian Division and the Guards' Military Division.

Now that the Privy Council has split the Dazhou Navy, it also means that the Hu Jiejun and Guo Tingwei's troops will not be incorporated into the Imperial Army Division.

How can the [-] Imperial Army Division be the opponent of the [-] Dianqian Division?
　Sorry, it's a bit of a Calvin.Thank you Shuyou for the [-] rewards for the second best time, and the [-] rewards for Qi Shanhai!

　　Tomorrow the first one will be updated at [-] noon
