Wei Wuhou

Chapter 800

(Already [-] chapters, give yourself a thumbs up!!)

A coup d'état occurred in Qufu, and Zongbo Jiyi led his troops to capture Miyagi and control Qufu, hoping to gain the support of the state of Wei to expel the people of Qi.

In Ji Yi's vision, as long as he sticks to Qufu for two days, it will be a day of victory!

But Ji Yi overestimated the combat effectiveness of the Lu army, and underestimated the strength and determination of the Qi army's siege.

Two hours after Qufu was controlled by Ji Yi, the Qi army immediately moved into action and surrounded Qufu.

At dawn, a great battle broke out between the two armies. The Qi army launched an attack with all its strength. The Lu army suffered heavy casualties at the beginning of the battle, and soon some city walls fell.

When the sun just rose, the Qi army broke through the city wall of Qufu, and the battle came to an end.

But this time, the aristocratic families in Qufu had another coup d'état. Just after the Qi people took down the east gate of Qufu, they re-established the monarch who was deposed four hours ago.

Ji Mi sat on his throne again, while below were a group of courtiers, and in the center of the hall was Ji Yi who was being escorted by soldiers.

It was only four hours, and the two exchanged positions twice, which made Ji Mi feel a little sad, but even more heartbroken.

But at this time, the courtiers who had supported Ji Yi vigorously an hour ago all admonished Ji Mi and asked him to execute Ji Yi and other traitors.

For the family, Ji Mi was really disappointed, but he couldn't ignore the demands of these people.

Just as the family can decide that Ji Mi can live last night, they can decide that Ji Yi will die now.

"What else do you want to say?" Looking at his younger brother, Ji Mi asked calmly.

Both of them are nearly fifty years old, but at this time there is a brother-in-law fight, don't make people lament that fate is uncertain.

Since Ji Yi failed, he was also aboveboard at this time, and he only heard him say: "I can die, but please leave a trace of my blood, brother... I am grateful!"

After thinking about it, Ji Mi didn't express his opinion on this, but asked someone to detain Ji Yi directly, thus directly pronouncing Ji Yi's death sentence.

Everything was over, looking at the noisy court hall, Ji Mi couldn't help saying loudly: "Quiet, go to the court!"

The Lu State coup was over, but after Qufu was captured by the Qi army, these Qi troops were directly stationed in the city to prevent such incidents from happening again.

Originally, the Qi army was stationed outside the city, but now they directly entered the city of Qufu, and the state of Lu was actually half-surviving and half-destroyed.

…………

On the fifth day of March in the tenth year of Marquis Wei, the Great Court Meeting.

After hearing the coup d'état reported by Da Honglu, Wei Wuji immediately cried out in grief in the court hall: "Ji Yi, a sage in Lu!"

Officially in the state of Wei, Lu Boji Mi, who was close to Qi, was regarded as a traitor, while Ji Yi, who was close to Wei, was regarded as a sage.

Therefore, when Wei Wuji heard the news of Ji Yi's death, he felt pity.

However, it wasn't Ji Yi who he was crying for, but the fact that the pro-Wei faction in Lu Kingdom was wiped out.

But in the eyes of the courtiers, the monarch's behavior seemed a little too much. It was just that an uncle of the Lu Kingdom died, and there was no place for the monarch of a great country to cry.

But Wei Wuji naturally had his own intentions in doing so.

After closing his voice, Wei Wuji looked at the courtiers and said, "Ji Mi steals the throne, mutilates virtuous and loyal ministers, and colludes with Qi State to oppress the people of Lu, it is really abhorrent!"

Wei Wuji accused Lu Bo and Ji Mi, which made it harder for the courtiers to guess his thoughts...

But the monarch cannot always be allowed to sing a one-man show, so at this time the prime minister Zhang Yu stood up and said: "Your Majesty's words are true, Ji Mi is indeed a thief who steals the country, and the people of Lu have suffered for a long time!"

The old prime minister Guo Liangdong stepped back two years ago, and Zhang Yu, the censor, was appointed prime minister instead of the most vocal Zhao Yu.

But Zhao Yu remained where he was, and the new censor was Zheng Xuan, the former chief minister. He was a middle-of-the-road man, and he worked hard for the past ten years, which made Wei Wuji very satisfied.

Zhang Yu was able to become the head of the hundred officials, but he was not familiar with his own abilities, especially in the matter of flattering Wei Wuji.

Therefore, Zhang Yu had a rough idea of ​​Wei Wuji's intentions through the monarch's brief words just now.

After more than four years of hard work, I pay special attention to the Lu State incident at this time. Isn't this preparing to attack Lu State and Qi State?

Thinking of this, Zhang Yu also determined the direction of his next speech. After scolding the State of Lu, he continued: "Your Majesty, the State of Qi is even more abominable. It is even more abhorrent to send troops to interfere in the affairs of the State of Lu without authorization. To openly send troops to occupy Qufu is really intolerable!"

If it is said that the monarch reacted too much, wouldn't the prime minister's reaction at this time be even greater?
But the courtiers are not idiots, trying to figure out the meaning is a basic skill, at this time someone also smelled it.

Then Ting Wei Zhao Yu stood up and said: "Your Majesty, what the Prime Minister said is true, Ji Mi colluded with the people of Qi, and the country of Lu is already in a state of grief and tragedy!"

Knowing that someone understood what he meant, Wei Wuji also asked hypocritically at this time: "I see my own people as if I see my own people suffering, and my heart aches unbearably!"

The current courtiers have been tamed one by one by Wei Wuji's continuous rubbing over the past four years.

At this time, no one stood up and sang the opposite tune, and everyone only wanted to follow Wei Wuji's words and make themselves more popular with the king.

Therefore, at this time, Zheng Xuan, the official censor, said: "Your Majesty is the head of the princes, and the people of the princes are also the people of the King. How can we allow the people of Lu to suffer!"

Not to mention, what Zheng Xuan said really hit the point, so Wei Wuji immediately asked, "What should I do with you?"

Seeing the monarch asking Ji Zhengxuan, even if the other people wanted to speak, they shut their mouths at this moment, who made them a step late.

Zheng Xuan's face was serious, and then he said: "I think that the emperor sent troops to Lu, expelled Lu Bo, Ji Mi and Qi people, and returned the peace to the people of Lu!"

Zheng Xuan's words were very beautiful. He said Wei Guo sent troops to Lu Guo as a just statement, and also labeled Wei Jun's military actions as justice.

Regardless of whether others believe it or not, Wei Wuji himself believes it anyway, because he needs such a reason.

Because, only in this kind of morally tenable war, the people of Lu will not have great resistance and resistance after taking Lu.

After saying this, Wei Wuji put away his mournful face before, and then said to Xu Anhong, who was in charge of the Military Wei's Mansion: "Xu Zhuguo, immediately send an order to Zheng Chang and Liu Xuanba to send troops to the Lu Kingdom to expel the Qi people!"

At this time Xu Anhong was also very old, after Wei Wuji gave the order, he slowly bowed down and said: "The minister takes orders!"

Now, those officials who reacted the slowest also understood the intentions of the monarch and the prime minister. This is about to start another war!
After the court, Wei Wuji called the prime minister and other important officials to discuss matters.

Although this time it was said that it was a war against the Lu country, it was actually going to attack the Qi country, and it was another unprecedented war.

Moreover, in Wei Wuji's plan, Qi's dispatch of troops this time is different from Qin's. Once he wins, Qi will be destroyed.

Except for the two counties of Fufeng and Beidi in Qin State, other places are hilly lands, which put great pressure on the supply and march of the Wei army, so it is difficult for the Wei army to move forward.

Except for the great rivers and natural dangers, Qi State has basically no danger to defend...and the land of Qi is rich and flat. Not only is it convenient for the Wei army to march, but it can also be maintained by war.

Therefore, Wei Wuji wanted to play the next big thing this time, not to mention that he had long been unhappy with Tian Yuwen, and this guy had caused him a lot of trouble in the past ten years.

When several important ministers learned of Wei Wuji's plan, they were not as shocked as they were when they sent troops to Qin State six years ago, because the struggle between the five major powers has long since changed.

Qin State and Wu State are both destroyed, and it is nothing to have another Qi State. Anyway, Wei State wants to destroy all the princes.

After preaching everything, Wei Wuji said to several important ministers: "Masters, I was able to defeat Qiang Qin back then, and this time I can conquer Qi. As long as our monarchs and ministers are united, we will be invincible!"

The prime minister, Zhang Yu, also said at this time: "The king is a sage, and the soldiers use their lives, and the state of Qi will be destroyed!"

Everyone else also said some good things, only Xu Anhong from Junwei's Mansion didn't speak, he is the oldest person here, he has passed the time of flattering with words, he just needs to do things well.

Xu Anhong is also getting old, he knows that this is the last battle in his career as an official, if he can truly defeat the Qi State, there will be another monument of merit on his resume, and he will have no regrets in this life!
Xu Anhong's sunset is setting, but Wei Wuji, who has only turned [-], is ambitious, and destroying Qi is just a step in his unification of the world.

Further south is Chu State and Wu State, and the whole world is still waiting for him to conquer!
