The system forced me to be emperor

So Xiao Rui was very curious about what Qi Huang would do.

After opening the secret letter to browse, Xiao Rui frowned.

What he expected was that Emperor Qi would indeed transfer 20 troops from the north, and he even guessed that he would recruit the rebels who rebelled.As for the unexpected, he did not expect that he would send Prince He, his grandfather, as the general!

No wonder His Majesty would send someone to pass the news to Xiao Rui when he was resting. This matter is really interesting.

Let Prince He be the general. This is a good thing that Qi Huang wants to improve the soldiers' morale and fighting enthusiasm; he also thinks of a coincidence, naturally he uses Prince He's ability to lead troops to fight, and by the way disgusts Xia Huang. After all, Xia Huang is Prince He's son-in-law.

It's a pity that the Emperor Qi didn't count all the calculations. The uprising rebels supported by Prince He has become the largest uprising organization in Qi. Now that Prince He is the leading general, is this a pair of tigers? Wings, ready to take off!

According to previous calculations, it would take three or four months to destroy Qi, but now it seems that the time may be even shorter.

"I know, you can step back." Xiao Rui waved his hand and asked the internal officer to go back and return.

......

Jingxiang Palace is the bedroom of Concubine Lan.

In the past few days, Concubine Lan has been heartbroken. The news from Japan confirms that her family has been wiped out by the Tokugawa family. Her brother Ashikaga Nobita is missing and his whereabouts are unknown, but she is far away in Daxia and cannot go back. She is both worried and anxious. Anxious, so I don't think about food and drink.

Ashikaga Yumi is a daughter, so she is not favored by her parents, but Ashikaga Nobita, as an elder brother, loves her very much. Whatever she wants, his brother will help her get it. It can be said that Ashikaga Yumi should repay his brother most in his life.

At the same time, Ashikaga Yumi was still feeling lucky. He thought that his brother hadn't been found, which meant he was not dead and was probably hiding. So he begged His Majesty to send troops to help her destroy the Tokugawa family to avenge her, and then send someone Look for brother.

Who knows...

His Majesty only comforted her, but did not agree to her request at all.

Ashikaga Yumi was very disappointed and sad. It turned out that His Majesty's love for her was really the same as other concubines in the palace talked about. She was just a substitute, a substitute for Concubine Rong.

Otherwise, why did His Majesty send troops to attack Zhao Guo without saying a word when something happened to Concubine Rong, but now he is begging so hard, His Majesty is just comforting him!

She has been in the palace for two years, and she is no longer the girl who didn't know anything back then. In this harem where rules are strict and she may make mistakes if she doesn't believe it, if she hadn't relied on His Majesty's favor, she would have died long ago.

The more she thought about it, the sadder Yumi Ashikaga became, and she couldn't help crying on the table.

Just when there was nothing to do and was worried, a female official's voice suddenly sounded outside the door: "I want to report to your empress, this servant has something important to see!"

"No see!" Ashikaga Yumi shouted.

Unexpectedly, the palace maid outside the door said again: "Report to your empress, this servant has received a letter, which is about General Ashikaga!"

Ashikaga Yumi stood up suddenly, her face was stunned, and then quickly wiped away the tears on her face, and then let the female officer outside the door come in.

......

Duan Wang has nothing to do recently, he always goes to Jianfang to practice palm skills.

In his own words, his palm technique has been perfected, but it is a pity that he has no chance to compete with the prince. If he has this opportunity, he will teach the prince how to behave.

As for why he came to Jianfang to practice palms, it was mainly because there were too many spies in the mansion.

But apart from practicing palms today, there is one more important thing!

At this time, a secret room in the Jianfang has specially built a tunnel, which can be connected with the houses outside the Jianfang. The purpose of doing this is naturally for convenience.

At this moment in the secret room, Xiao Feng is plotting against an old man, who is none other than Huang Qilin!

In the past two years, Huang Qilin went north to Qi and Yuan, and finally went to Qin to stay for a while. He returned to Daxia not long ago and then went to Wa.

At this time, it was only three or four days after returning to Daxia, Huo Xingye informed Xiao Feng, and only then did today's meeting happen.

After Xiao Feng expressed his longing, he said bitterly: "Grandfather, my grandson is incompetent and failed to go out to lead the army. Every time he asked His Majesty for orders, he was destroyed by Xiao Rui. He wanted me to stay in the capital forever and be an idle prince. , is really hateful!"

Huang Qilin sighed in his heart, but his face was calm and comforted: "The prince is afraid of you, and he is afraid that after releasing you, he will create a big enemy for himself, which shows the pressure you have created in his heart! "

If even he showed concern, it would be a big blow to the grandson.

In fact, Huang Qilin couldn't stop sighing in his heart. The more time passed, the more he saw that the strength of the prince Xiao Rui was increasing. Although Huang Qilin was away for the past two years, he always paid attention to the situation in Daxia.

Whether it's the promotion of new crops, or Xiao Rui exercising the power of supervising the country and controlling the six ministries, Xiao Rui's prestige has risen to a terrifying level.

Who in the Great Xia does not remember His Majesty and the Prince?

Who among the civil and military officials does not believe in the prince?

It is very difficult to reverse the current situation, unless Xiao Rui dies!

That's why Lord Jingguo planned to assassinate Emperor Xia and poison the prince, because he deeply realized that it was impossible for Xiao Yan to rise to power if the two of them were immortal.

But for Xiao Feng, if the crown prince is not dead, it will be difficult for him to ascend to the throne.

So Huang Qilin has changed his mind, since he can't take back the crown prince justifiably, then kill Xiao Rui, at any cost!

But how easy is it to kill the prince of a country?

Xiao Rui didn't know how many spies he had hidden beside King Duan, and maybe even his confidants were instigated, so who else could he trust now?

Moreover, Xiao Rui basically stayed in the palace, and he was protected by personal guards when he went out. Moreover, after experiencing the incident with Lord Yasukuni, Xiao Rui's food was strictly inspected according to His Majesty's standards to avoid being poisoned.

In the first half of this year, there was a godsend opportunity, because Xiao Rui went to visit the state capital in secret, but Xiao Rui was cunning and walked quietly, and he couldn't be found at all.

Knowing that assassination is not easy, but also to create opportunities, this time Huang Qilin returned to the capital with determination: vow to kill Xiao Rui!

Xiao Feng heard his grandfather's consolation, and asked: "Where did grandfather go this time? Will you go out this time?"

"Walking around the Qi and Yuan countries, I finally went to the Qin country, where I made some arrangements, and then went back to the Wa country. You must have heard that the Tokugawa family of the Wa country has wiped out the Ashikaga shogunate. I led my masters to the country of Wa, and I have already captured Nobita Ashikaga. It’s time to try the game I laid out two years ago, and I have ordered someone to send a letter to Yumi Ashikaga.” Huang Qilin laughed.

Xiao Feng hesitated and said: "Grandfather, Concubine Lan is deeply favored by His Majesty. From the very beginning, she didn't know that she was in a situation. Now she came to her abruptly. Will she gain her trust? What if she tells His Majesty about the situation? Isn’t all previous work wasted?”

Huang Qilin nodded and said with a smile: "Of course it is possible! Back then I was only suggesting Ashikaga Nobita, and I had never met Ashikaga Yumi, so it was not easy to use her. But Fenger, don't underestimate the hatred of a woman .”

"Grandpa means that Ashikaga Yumi will become hate because of love?" Xiao Feng asked in surprise.

Huang Qilin continued: "Everyone knows that Ashikaga Yumi is a substitute for Concubine Rong, even Ashikaga Yumi knows it well. Secondly, this time the Ashikaga Shogunate is destroyed, Ashikaga Yumi will definitely beg His Majesty to avenge her, but His Majesty will not Agree. In addition, Ashikaga Nobita is in our hands, Ashikaga Yumi and his brother have a deep relationship, and they will not do anything to save them. They will use three prongs. Of course, there is a deeper reason, which has left a deep impression in Ashikaga Yumi's heart. A thorn, do you know what it is?"

Xiao Feng was startled, he thought over and over again, but couldn't think of any other reason.

"Grandson is stupid, can't figure it out." Xiao Feng said.

Huang Qilin reminded: "Your Majesty has loved Concubine Lan for two years, why has Concubine Lan not had any children?"

"Perhaps it's because His Majesty is already old. Since His Majesty entered the age of forty, none of the concubines in the palace have had children, and Concubine Lan is not alone." Xiao Feng said.

Huang Qilin asked back: "Is the age of no confusion very old? Emperor Qin has long been obedient. When I came back from Qin, his concubine gave birth to a prince for him. After all these years, Emperor Xia favored him There are so many beauties in the harem, it’s impossible not to have a single heir, and which woman in the palace doesn’t want to conceive a dragon species? So there is only one possibility that she can’t conceive, and that is His Majesty’s refusal!”

Xiao Feng immediately understood, and said: "Grandpa means that His Majesty gave medicine to the beloved concubines to make them unable to conceive?"
