"The struggle for power is far more cruel and ruthless than the struggle between the rivers and lakes."
At this moment, Lu Qingfeng's mood was very complicated.
As a hermit martial artist, he really didn't want to intervene in the battle in the court.
But the current situation in Dali made Qi Yuanzong have to get involved.
What happened in Nanyang City was more like a sharp arrow, which made him feel the danger of the emperor, court, and power even more.
"It's a pity we didn't retreat!"
Lu Qingfeng said helplessly.
As a strong man of the three congenital realms, when he faced the general trend of the world, he was also full of powerlessness in his heart.
Otherwise, he would not have surrendered to Qin Wei.
"Is His Highness Prince Rui really okay?"
Ji Chen couldn't help asking.
"do not know!"
Lu Qingfeng shook his head, "We only have the right to choose, not the power to change the overall situation of the world."
Compared with other holy lands, their Qiyuanzong and the destroyed Shangyuanzong undoubtedly had the least influence on the outside world.
Chapter 171 Why don't we rebel against the emperor's old son together?
Within Kyoto.
As soon as Qin Changping returned to the palace from the early dynasty, Shi Wubin, the head of the palace, hurriedly reported to him about the battle situation in Nanyang City.
While listening to Wu Bin's narration, he walked towards the lobby of the palace.
Suddenly he stopped, narrowed his eyes slightly, stared at Wu Bin closely, and asked, "What did you just say?"
Wu Bin was slightly stunned, and then said, "What I'm talking about is the battle of Nanyang City."
"Just that sentence!" Qin Changping said.
"Uh, Gong Yunshan, the owner of the three islands of Xiaoyao Island, was killed by Mao Jiang in Nanyang City." Wu Bin said.
Qin Changping frowned, and his expression suddenly became serious.
But he didn't ask any more questions, he just ordered: "Let Lu Cheng come over, the king has something to do."
He already had a general understanding of the situation in Nanyang City. Although he was also very shocked, he didn't show it.
Because no matter what happens to Nanyang City, it will not affect him.
It's just that Gong Yunshan's death made him feel a little heavy.
"Here!" Wu Bin responded.
Qin Chengping said again: "Although this matter has little impact on the capital, it must be taken seriously."
"Since Mao Jiang was ordered by His Majesty to pretend to rebel, he has made a great contribution this time. I believe he will return to the capital in a short time."
"You prepare in advance."
Wu Bin's expression moved slightly, and he said, "What does the lord mean?"
"Follow what you like!" Qin Changping said.
"I understand!" Wu Bin replied.
Qin Changping walked into the main hall, sat on the main seat, and said thoughtfully: "Also, Qin Changan seems to have been eyeing the [-]th Regiment Battalion recently!"
Wu Bin thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty, the [-]th Regiment Battalion has always been the most important guard in Kyoto, and Li Ji is His Majesty's most valued nobleman. It is not easy to subdue him."
"Besides, if it reaches His Majesty's ears at this time, I'm afraid it will be unavoidable to be outraged."
Now the battle behind the scenes in the capital has reached a fever pitch. With Li Huang getting older and older, the battle between Ping Wang Qin Changping, An Wang Qin Changan, and Ning Wang Qin Jun became more and more intense.
If you cheat me today, tomorrow I will have someone impeach you in the court hall. You win over the Minister of the Ministry of War, and I win over the Minister of the Ministry of War. Towards the end, it was a joy to fight.
"Because the [-]th Regiment Battalion is important, we can't give up." Qin Changping said in a low voice: "Your Majesty doesn't have much time. If we don't have enough troops by then, we can only let others decide."
By this time, Qin Changping had basically given up the idea of peaceful succession.
Regardless of whether Li Huang would pass on the throne to him or not, he would not be able to inherit the throne peacefully.
Because no matter who Li Huang passed on the throne to, the other two would not let it go, and it would be inevitable that swords and swords would meet at that time.
"But the most important thing should be Qing Fushan!" Wu Bin said carefully.
Hearing this, Qin Changping rubbed his brows with a headache.
Qing Fushan was like a big mountain, pressing on the heads of the three of them.
Although Qing Fushan seldom intervened in the affairs of the court, and even most of the innate warriors seldom showed up, but no one dared to ignore Qing Fushan's existence.
And Qing Fushan's attitude is even more crucial to them.
If he didn't get the support of Qing Fushan, even if he sat on the throne, he would not be able to control the court.
Qin Changping sighed and said, "I'll visit Zuozhu Kingdom again in the afternoon."
Zuo Zhuguo is Li Xun, and he has been there twice before, but unfortunately he was turned away each time.
Even so, he didn't dare to have any complaints and dissatisfaction with Li Xun.
Li Xun and Yan Zhen are the two big mountains brought to the court, one civil and one military, one left and one right, supporting this huge dynasty.
Maybe they don't care who inherits the throne, but Qin Changping has to pay attention to their attitude.
Within the imperial city.
In the Imperial Study Room of Shengtian Palace.
Li Huang leaned on the soft bed, coughing violently, his old face turned slightly rosy.
Eunuch Lu beat his back lightly, and it took him a long time to recover.
Afterwards, Eunuch Lu brought another bowl of medicinal soup, and Li Huang felt much better after drinking it.
"Hey~~"
Li Huang let out a long and lonely sigh.
Birth, old age, sickness and death, even the emperor cannot be exempted.
As an emperor who has been in power for more than 40 years, he thinks he is a qualified emperor, but until now he has become an old man who has run out of fuel.
Recently, he often recalled the past when he was young. When he was young, he was full of vigor in the Tianshi Mansion.
Every time he thought of this, he became more and more unwilling.
He doesn't want to die, he still wants to live on, he still wants to be Dali's emperor and make Dali stronger.
Unfortunately, time cannot be turned back, and he cannot go back to the past.
After a while, Li Huang stood up and sat in front of the desk.
"Pass the decree to let Mao Jiang come back. He has been wronged for more than ten years."
"As well as Liu Bo and Lu Ji, let them come back, and let Yin Shoujian prepare to confer titles on them."
Li Huang said in a weak voice.
Eunuch Lu lowered his head and asked, "What title does Your Majesty plan to give them?"
Li Huang thought for a while, and said: "Mao Jiang is the Duke of the state, Liu Bo and Lu Ji are the uncles!"
Since he came to the throne, he has rarely conferred titles, not only rarely canonized, but even eliminated many lords.
Now Dali's honor is nearly half of what he was when he ascended the throne, which shows that he is cautious about conferring titles.
But this time Mao Jiang made a great contribution and paid a lot. Perhaps because he is getting older, Li Huang's heart has softened a little.
"I'll make arrangements now, old slave!" Eunuch Lu replied.
Li Huang nodded slightly, and looked down at the memorial on the desk.
There is a large stack of memorials on the desk, most of them are irrelevant things, which are insignificant to Li Huang, he just glanced at them, left a word "read" and threw it aside up.
Only a few memorials made him look at them a few more times.
One of them was a memorial about the northern frontier army, and Li Huang looked a lot better looking at the memorial.
During the battle in Nanyang City, there was also a big battle in Yunyan City in the north. Although the scale was not as large as Nanyang City, it was not a trivial matter.
10,000+ Rong cavalry soldiers approached Yunyan City and attacked the city for more than ten days in a row.
In the battle of Yunyan City, there were two people who performed the most outstandingly, namely Yuwen Chengdu and Bai Qi.
Looking at these two names, Li Huang was thoughtful.
He had never heard of Bai Qi's name, but he was very familiar with Yu Wencheng.
Seeing Yuwen Chengdu, Qin Wei was naturally the first thing he thought of.
In this battle of Yunyan City, Yuwen Chengdu, as the deputy commander of Yunyan City, led the frontier cavalry in Yunyan City out of the city many times to face the Rong cavalry. With [-] frontier cavalry, he attacked the Rong army and killed tens of thousands of enemies. countless.
Although the result is far inferior to the battle of the Mingyue Army in Yunyan City more than 20 years ago, it is definitely a great victory.
Naturally, such a great achievement has to be rewarded, otherwise the hearts of the frontier soldiers will be chilled.
Lihuang pondered for a moment, and finally agreed to the Dudu Mansion's request for Yuwen Chengdu, and named him the chief soldier of Yunyan City.
No matter what the relationship between Yuwen Chengdu and Qin Wei is, he has made great achievements in battle for Dali, and the rewards he deserves are naturally indispensable.
As for the others, Li Huang didn't think much about it.
Perhaps because of habitual thinking, until now he still thinks that Qin Wei is just an immature boy, thinking that Qin Wei has some intelligence and ability, and has never considered how powerful and powerful Qin Wei will be.
Half a month passed quickly.
In the past half a month, the details of the Battle of Nanyang City have spread to every corner of Dali. From the court hall to the private market, countless people are discussing this matter.
But not everyone was shocked and horrified by this, and many people felt sad about it, especially the people in the three southwestern states. When they heard the news, their first reaction was disbelief, and their second reaction was anger.
Because many of their family members died in this turmoil, hundreds of thousands of soldiers died in battle, and countless people experienced the devastation of the war, especially the people in Yunzhou. There were countless people involved in the chaos.
After learning the truth of the matter, the common people were excited, and countless civil warriors and low-level forces felt resentful about it, and even gave birth to many forces that resisted the imperial court.
The world is in turmoil, and it is the people at the bottom who suffer after all.
Perhaps for Li Huang, these sacrifices were all worthwhile, but for ordinary people, the suffering they suffered was unbearable.
For a time, the three southwest states continued to be in turmoil, and many forces against the imperial court appeared in various places.
This time, the imperial court has lost the hearts of the people in the three southwest states.
After Qin Wei returned to Shuzhou, he sent a letter to Liu Yuanrang as soon as possible, asking him to try his best to appease the soldiers of the various David divisions in Shuzhou.
The people are in chaos, and there is no big storm, but if the soldiers of the guarding army also rebel against the court, then things will break out.
Fortunately, the rebellion in Shuzhou subsided relatively quickly, not many people suffered, and the turmoil in their hearts was much less.
Coupled with the fact that Qin Wei is in Shuzhou, there are not many Xiaoxiaogens jumping out to make troubles.
In the other courtyard of Danlian Mansion.
Qin Wei sat in the study, looking at the letters that came one after another.
This time, it took him a month to go to Yunzhou. Although he didn't need to handle most of the things in person, he had to report all important things to him.
For example, Shen Wansan would report to Qin Wei about the financial situation of Long'an Mansion once a month.
Another example is the situation of Luo Wang, Zhao Gao's preparations in Kyoto, Li Ru's arrangements in Liangzhou, and some experiences of Yuwen Chengdu and Bai Qi, all of which will be sent to Qin Wei.
What Qin Wei needs to do is to coordinate the overall situation and integrate resources.
Just when Qin Wei was learning about what happened in various places in Yuedali this year, Xiao Shunzi hurried into the study.
"Your Highness, Lan Yuehou is here!"
"Ok!"
Qin Wei raised his head and asked in surprise, "Why is he here?"
"I don't know, he only came with his guards, and he didn't lead the Mingyue Army." Xiao Shunzi said.
Qin Wei raised his eyebrows.
