Take the earth to enshrine the gods

Chapter 249 Princess Qingcheng's Shocking Conspiracy

In a blink of an eye, it was late December.

Government offices at all levels, and even the imperial court, began to take a break for another Spring Festival.

Gods.

Different from previous years, this is the first Spring Festival since the new emperor ascended the throne. Under the organization of the Ministry of Rites, the whole city looks more lively, festive and peaceful.

A scene of singing and dancing.

At this time, in the palace compound, an unusual conversation was going on.

"Sister, you really don't want to marry?" The new emperor was obviously angry.

"no way."

Princess Qingcheng's attitude is also very firm, making her a victim of the new dynasty's marriage, she can't do it.

Just a month ago, the Beidi Kingdom sent a special envoy, saying that Prince Beidi hoped to marry Princess Qingcheng as his concubine, so as to end the confrontation between the two countries and conclude an alliance.

Xindi was naturally moved.

A Beidi country involved the entire Second Army.

If the confrontation can be ended, then the mobilized army of the new dynasty will skyrocket, and they will no longer have to be so aggrieved as they are now, and they can only be shy turtles, and no one dares to touch them.

"Are you trying to piss me off?" The new emperor was furious. "At this time when the empire is in crisis, as the princess of the empire, shouldn't she help the empire to solve its problems?"

"How to solve problems, rely on marriage?" Princess Qingcheng sneered indescribably, "Brother Emperor, the empire is the overlord of the Eastern Continent. Could it be that it has been reduced to a point where a woman is needed to settle the barbarians in the north?"

"Shut up!"

"I'm going to say it." Princess Qingcheng didn't give up. She was obviously very angry. I really don't know if the emperor's brain was too confused to come up with such a bad idea.

"Brother Huang, have you ever thought about what the people of the empire will think once they make peace with the Beidi Kingdom? What will those aristocratic families and ministers think? What will the third brother, fifth brother, eighth brother, and fifteenth brother think? Don't tell me, you really Do you want to lose your prestige?" Princess Qingcheng hated iron but steel.

"Brother Huang, wake up, the Beidi Kingdom is a pack of wolves, how can a woman be able to dismiss them? This is just their plan to slow down the army, maybe there is another conspiracy."

"You, ahem~~~"

The new emperor, Qian Shenxu, was so angry that his face flushed red when he was talked about. After a while, he finally said, "Even if you don't marry Prince Beidi, then marrying War Spirit will not be considered wronged you, right?"

Princess Qingcheng's eyes turned cold. It turned out that after going around such a big circle, the imperial brother is waiting for her here, and said in a deep voice: "Emperor brother, if you force me again, then I have no choice but to give up. What do you love?" how."

"You!" The new emperor didn't know, this was the first time he got angry, his heart couldn't take it anymore, and he almost shouted: "You are so self-willed, are you worthy of the great trust of your father?"

"Brother Imperial, it is you who are sorry to my father, not me."

"..."

silence,

In the imperial study room, it fell into a deathly silence.

The new emperor was slumped and silent.

Yes,

He has failed his father's great trust.

At the beginning, his father paved the way for him to ascend the throne, hoping to use his hands to quell the internal strife in the empire as soon as possible so that he could concentrate on dealing with external threats.

Half a year has passed, what has he done?
Not only did the internal strife not be quelled, but it became an unstoppable trend; the external aggression was not eliminated, and even the land of the two prefectures was rarely lost, which became the biggest shame of the empire for more than a hundred years.

"Let's go, you really shouldn't bear this heavy burden." The new emperor looked very tired, and waved his hands, even his back became a little stooped.

When Princess Qingcheng saw it, her eyes were a little sour.

Is this still her high-spirited ninth brother?It's only been half a year.

"Brother Huang, I'm sorry, I said the wrong thing." How could Princess Qingcheng really leave? If she wanted to leave, the new emperor would really be alone.

After thinking for a while, Princess Qingcheng said again: "Brother Huang, there is actually a way to solve the current predicament."

"any solution?"

"Go against the trend, unite with the fifteenth younger brother, and destroy the Chu king's forces in one fell swoop." Princess Qingcheng said.

"What kind of solution is this? Could it be that I still have to make wedding dresses for others? It's just stupid." The new emperor became more and more disappointed, thinking it was some kind of pioneering work.

It's a cliché.

"Listen to me."

Princess Qingcheng had considered it thoroughly, "In view of the lesson learned last time, I can make it clear to my fifteenth brother this time. The imperial court and the Southern Xinjiang Protectorate will send troops respectively. The imperial court will attack Kunwu County, and the Southern Xinjiang Protectorate will attack Kuaiji County." , if everyone does not interfere, there will naturally be no issue of uneven distribution of benefits."

"Does that mean we want to give Kuaiji County to him again?" The new emperor was very irritated. He almost doubted the position of the sister in front of him. Why did he always talk to Qianyuan.

Princess Qingcheng said: "This is impossible."

"Then what's the point of doing this, isn't it driving wolves at the front door and tigers at the back door?" Xindi was annoyed.

"Of course it makes sense."

Princess Qingcheng was unmoved, "Brother, think about it, the nature and purpose of the fifth brother and the fifteenth brother are completely different. The fifth brother is a chaotic king, and his purpose is to enter the capital of God; No matter how much you make trouble, it can only be the local vassal king, which was already determined by the father when he was alive."

"so what?"

"Since he is a vassal king, he is bound by the "Great Law". Perhaps in the generation of the fifteenth brother, he, the vassal king, will be very strong and the court will not be able to move. What about the next generation, or even the next generation? As long as the court has enough With your patience, you can always solve this hidden danger in the gentlest way." Princess Qingcheng really thought too far.

The new emperor was silent, as if he was thinking about Princess Qingcheng's words.

Princess Qingcheng continued: "In the current situation, the imperial court must distinguish between a priority and a secondary one. The chaos between the two kings is a serious problem that shakes the court's rule, and it must be eliminated as soon as possible. Relatively speaking, although the trouble of the vassal kings is serious, at least on the surface The emperor still obeys the imperial court, which can maintain the unity of the empire and prevent foreign enemies from taking advantage of it.

"If the power of the King of Chu is wiped out, then the power of the King of Wei is bound to be invincible. At that time, there is no need to rely on the power of the King of Qin, and the western region can be wiped out with only the imperial army. In this way, the empire will return to unity. With such meritorious deeds, the emperor will have What can't be done, what kind of ambition can't be realized? No matter how powerful and prestigious the fifteenth brother is, can he still bear the name of rebellion and fail to fight against a unified imperial court?"

I have to say that Princess Qingcheng's words are very bewitching.

Or perhaps, this is the path that the imperial court should take the most. In a sense, it is even the imperial court's last chance.It's hard to imagine that such a big picture would come from a woman.

The new emperor became excited when he heard this, but he was cautious by nature and still had doubts. He said, "Even if we join hands with the fifteenth brother, it will be very difficult for the imperial court to take down Kunwu County, right? King Wei will not sit idly by." No reason."

"I've calculated that too."

Princess Qingcheng really came prepared and explained: "In order to prevent Wei Wang from intervening, neither the imperial guard nor the city guard should be mobilized. The third army can be the main force, and then a division can be drawn from the second army. There are six With the support of the division, why worry that Kunwu County will not be able to overcome it?"

"Dropped troops from the Second Legion, are you crazy?" The new emperor was dumbfounded.

"Am I crazy?" Princess Qingcheng was very calm, "Although the battle in Shaoyang County is dangerous, it is not. On the battlefield, one must be vigorous. Beidi Kingdom has been tossing for more than half a year, but there has been no progress at all. That vigor has been lost. It's almost exhausted, no matter how difficult it is to pose a big threat. That's why I said that their so-called marriage is just a tactic to delay the attack, and they just want to buy time so that they can regroup."

"This is just your speculation, it's not accurate." Xindi still hesitated.

Princess Qingcheng said: "If the emperor is not at ease, why not send a secret envoy to the Quanrong Kingdom?"

"What are you doing there?"

"Naturally, it is to encourage the Quanrong Kingdom to attack the Beidi Kingdom." Princess Qingcheng said it as a matter of course, "Brother, think about it, one of the reasons why the Beidi Kingdom dared to go south unscrupulously is that there is no threat from the Quanrong Kingdom. One, is it not surprising that there is no movement at all in the Quan Rong Kingdom?"

"It's true when you say that." The new emperor was also a little puzzled.

"So, no matter whether you are a lobbyist or what, it is very necessary to send people deep into the Quanrong country to investigate what happened in the Quanrong country." Princess Qingcheng added.

At this point, Qingcheng's entire plan was revealed in full.

Go far away from the Quanrong Kingdom to remove the threat from the Beidi Kingdom; then deploy troops from Shaoyang County, put all their eggs in one basket, coordinate the Southern Border Protectorate, and destroy the King of Chu's forces in one fell swoop.

While establishing the prestige of the imperial court, it also laid the foundation for solving the problems faced by King Wei.

No matter how hard he tried to rule, with the will of more than three generations, he solved the troubles of the vassal kings, brought the empire back on track, and regained the glory of the overlord of the Eastern Continent.

If Qianyuan were present, he would definitely be amazed.

Followed by a chill down the spine.

If the imperial court really wanted to implement this plan, then the chances of Qianyuan becoming the ruler of the capital would be very slim. In the future, he might have to devote all his energy to foreign wars.

Unfortunately, the new emperor is not Qianyuan.

He was too cautious and worried: "Is it too risky to put all your strength into it and make a desperate move? What if we repeat the same mistakes as before?"

The previous battle of Kunwu County left too much shadow on the new emperor.

A great battle that was bound to be won and never thought of losing at all, once defeated, the imperial court became a shameful loser, leaving a place of infamy.

Back then, Fifth Scorching Sun would only be more confident by the current Princess Qingcheng.

"Brother Huang, you should stop and stop, and you will be disturbed by it instead."

Princess Qingcheng was finally in a hurry, "The expansion of the army of King Chu and King Wei has been completed. If the court does not act again, it will have to pay twice or even three times the price if they want to defeat them after their new army is trained. At that time, Can the imperial court support it? Moreover, Beidi Kingdom is the most exhausted now, and when they recover, they will really have no chance at all."

"Don't talk about it." The new emperor waved his hand vigorously, "This matter is of great importance, let me think about it."

"Ok."

The disappointment in Princess Qingcheng's eyes is about to overflow. Her imperial brother, as his name suggests, is cautious in success and cautious in failure.

At the beginning, the contact between the imperial court and the Zixiao Sword Sect was almost completed.

It's the emperor brother who has been scruples about the adverse impact on the reputation of the imperial court caused by the inclusion of the sect, so he has not agreed for a long time.This procrastination finally pushed the Zixiao Sword Sect into the King Wei's camp.

It's ironic enough.

On the contrary, like King Ganke of Chu, he was able to get out at critical moments, and took the opportunity of recruiting the Kunlun faction to reverse the overall situation in one fell swoop and took a huge advantage.

If you want to be 100% certain about everything, then why fight for hegemony?

Nothing is perfect in the world.

Full of disappointment and worry, Princess Qingcheng left the palace silently.

At this moment, the trajectory of history draws a sudden arc and turns to another unknown future.

Who knows if the future will be good or bad?
