How did the Michong Emperor succeed in eating chicken?

He still refused to go to the north.Because his father was far away in the north and couldn't control him, and his mother didn't want him to go to the north, so this matter dragged on until he was 15 years old.

That year his father finally couldn't take it anymore, he rushed back from the northern border and carried him to the northern border.His father scolded him: "If you don't go to the northern border to practice, how will you be on your own in the future and guard the northern border? Will you read the military book when the enemy comes?"

At that time, the young and frivolous Prince Regent swore to the old Marquis Dingyuan: "I have read all those military books, and I have memorized all the art of war by heart. Is there anything that cannot guard the northern border?"

The old Marquis Dingyuan was so angry that his beard straightened: "If you die on the battlefield like Zhao Kuo, that's fine. If the northern border falls because of you, even if you can come back alive, I will beat you to death!"

He swore to the sky: "As long as I am alive, the northern border will never fall into my hands!"

The old Marquis Dingyuan no longer argued with him, but just snorted coldly: "You'd better do what you say."

However, I don't know whether it was his bad luck or something else. When he went to the northern border, the Di people joined forces with the Huns and wanted to occupy the northern border in one fell swoop.

The Xiongnu is a tribe that arose from Emperor Xiaozong of the third dynasty, that is, the grandfather of the little emperor. At the beginning, they and the Di people were hostile tribes. The two tribes often competed for territory and killed each other. Dayuan sat on the mountain and watched the tiger fight.However, in the later years of Emperor Xiaozong, the two tribes seemed to have unified their opinions and turned hostility into friendship.Seeing that they had reconciled, the northern commander at that time felt that something was wrong, so he was always on guard, but the Xiongnu and Di people remained silent.

Until the time of Emperor Xiandi, in the 12th year after the reconciliation of the two tribes, the Xiongnu and the Di people joined forces and began to attack Dayuan.

The two tribes came fiercely.But just a few months ago, the first emperor transferred part of the original northern garrison and merged it into the forbidden army in the capital, sent part of him to the summer palace, and the other part stayed with him to escort him.There is another reason why the old Marquis Dingyuan returned to the capital, that is, he wanted to get these soldiers back from the late emperor.But the first emperor refused to let go, only saying that the northern border has been stable for a long time, and there is no need for so many garrisons.

As a result, when the Xiongnu and Di people came to fight, there were not enough troops in the northern border.Even if the old Marquis Dingyuan is prepared, it is still difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice.While arranging his troops, the old Marquis Dingyuan wrote a letter to the first emperor, hoping to transfer troops from the northwest and northeast.

The regent at that time was sent by the old Dingyuanhou to follow General Zhenwei on the left. The regent led a small team and encountered the Huns when setting up an ambush.

Seeing the Huns surrounding them, they had nowhere to hide, and they couldn't care about ambush or not, so they could only bite the bullet and charge upwards.

When he fought against the Huns head-on, the regent knew that his flamboyant fists and embroidered legs were really not enough, and the military books he had read could not be used flexibly.

But the regent still remembered the oath he had sworn with the old Marquis Dingyuan. Even though the Huns were fierce, he did not back down, and stabbed at the Huns with the wooden warehouse.When the reinforcements arrived, all of their squad were seriously injured, but luckily no one was killed.The regent was seriously injured. He was slashed on his left shoulder by the Huns, and his back was also cut with blood. He also had other large and small wounds on his body.The military doctor looked at it and lamented that the regent's fate was too great. The knife in the back was aimed at the heart. If he hadn't dodged it in time, he might have been broken on the battlefield.

When the regent was rescued and returned to the camp, Lao Dingyuanhou and other generals were still fighting the enemy on the battlefield.As soon as the regent finished bandaging, the late emperor's decree came.

The first emperor rejected the old Dingyuanhou's request to transfer troops, and said that he believed that the old Dingyuanhou would be able to turn the tide.

After hearing the late emperor's will, the regent wanted to put on his wings and fly back to the capital immediately from the northern border to pry open the late emperor's head to see what was inside.

But in the end, the old Marquis Dingyuan did his best to turn the tide, but the northern garrison suffered heavy casualties.

After the first emperor's summer vacation in the palace, he sent back the northern garrison troops he had transferred away.

The regent looked at the returning northern garrison and thought to himself, my old man knows how to fight, has a good reputation among the people, and has a trace of royal blood.When the emperor treats the generals guarding the frontier for him like this, why doesn't the old man consider becoming emperor himself?

Of course, the result after he talked about this idea with the old Dingyuanhou was that he was scolded by the old Dingyuanhou again.If it weren't for the fact that he was still injured, the old Dingyuan Hou would probably have to beat him up.

The regent came out of the old Dingyuanhou's tent, he couldn't figure out why the old Dingyuanhou was so stupid and loyal.He looked in the direction of the capital and thought, "The old man is not willing, so shall I come to the head office?"

From that day on, he followed the old master all day long, and every time the enemy attacked, he went to battle against the enemy.Until the old Marquis passed away four years later, he inherited the title of Marquis of Dingyuan and took over the Northern Territory.It was only after he took over the Northern Territory that he realized that the first time he almost fell into the battlefield, there was the handwriting of the late emperor behind him.

The regent is different from the old master.The old Hou Ye is quite moderate, whether he is marching or ruling, but he is much more radical than the old Hou Ye. After taking over the northern border, he has added a lot of military regulations, and he is better than the old Hou Ye for the Huns and Di people. Lord Hou is even more vicious.

At the same time, he was also wary of the first emperor.But the first emperor seemed to realize that if he was moved, no one would guard the northern border for him, so he never did anything to him, nor took back his military power.

Until two years ago, he was recalled to the capital by the first emperor and asked him to live in the capital forever.

The first emperor took his hand and told him sincerely that now that the northern border was stable, it was time for him to cultivate himself.

The regent at that time sneered in his heart.He is only 22 years old this year, and the same 22-year-old sergeant told him to train him.The purpose of the first emperor is clearly revealed.

But how could the regent be at the mercy of the late emperor.He began to appear in the court, and made friends with the humble family in the court.

One of the few good things the late emperor did was to reject the family's request not to allow the children of the poor family to occupy high positions in the court, but this also intensified the conflict between the family and the children of the poor family.

Since the beginning of the Xiaozong Dynasty, the number of children from poor families in the court has gradually increased, and many of them occupy important positions in various ministries.The aristocratic family in the capital felt that these people they had always looked down upon threatened their own interests, so they began to suppress the poor.But now nearly half of the people from poor families in the court, how could they be suppressed by the clan.

The Prince Regent is the first family to take the initiative to make friends with the poor.

Those ministers from poor families didn't trust him at first, but the regent's behavior moved them a little bit. Gradually, many ministers from poor families chose to stand behind the regent.The conflict between the aristocratic family and the poor family in the court further intensified, directly forming a new faction headed by the regent, and an old faction headed by the old aristocratic right minister, and the rest of the factions who did not join in the fun became neutral.

At this time, the late emperor was no longer interested in this matter - when he was traveling south, an eunuch recommended an alchemist to him, saying that the alchemist's pills could prolong life, and there were some medicines that could make people live forever. means.For the first emperor who wanted to live forever, it was tantamount to dozing off and giving him a pillow.From then on, the late emperor, who was already lazy in governing, became even worse, and it was commonplace to stop the early court.

The inner prison was actually arranged by the regent.Since the Prince Regent took over the Northern Territory, he picked people and sent them to the palace to be placed next to the late Emperor.The so-called alchemists who know how to live forever are all arranged by the regent.Half a year before his death, the first emperor had already become dependent on the alchemist's elixir, and felt uncomfortable if he didn't take it.

The poison given by the fourth prince to the late emperor damaged the foundation of the late emperor, but because the elixir did have some effects on strengthening the body, the late emperor didn't feel much after detoxifying, but his body gradually began to decline.The first emperor's death this year was not only due to the elixir, the poison given by the fourth prince played a role in fueling the flames.

The regent originally wanted the late emperor to live on, so that he could watch helplessly as his favorite power finally fell into his hands.Another reason why he didn't kill the first emperor immediately was that as long as the first emperor lived for a day, he would never pass on the throne to the crown prince or other princes, so that he could delay his plan for a while.

As a result, the late emperor's body could not bear the strong medicinal properties of the elixir, and news of the death of the crown prince and other princes came one after another, which was a big blow to the late emperor. In the end, the late emperor still did not survive this summer.

The little emperor was not a variable in the regent's plan, because he originally thought that the crown prince would be the last one to ascend the throne.

The little emperor never participated in government affairs and had no official position. The regent's understanding of him was basically zero.I only heard that the little emperor was useless, and he didn't invite the late emperor to see him.The first time he unilaterally met the little emperor was at the palace banquet on New Year's Eve last year, where he sat diagonally across from the little emperor.The little emperor's mother was a well-known beauty in the south of the Yangtze River, otherwise she would not have been selected by the late emperor to enter the palace.Looking at the handsome face of the little emperor, the regent thought darkly in his heart: King Yan is not useless, at least his face is not bad.After that, he never paid attention to the little emperor again.

When I saw the little emperor again, it was the day when the first emperor died.He also didn't expect that the few heirs of the late emperor who were often active in the court could fight to the death, and it was this silent sixth prince who won in the end.He watched the little emperor pretending to act beside the late emperor's bed, and he couldn't help but began to wonder whether the deaths of these princes were all behind the handwriting of the king of Yan.

However, the results of the investigation in the past few days told him that the deaths of those princes had nothing to do with the little emperor, and he had a high probability
