History of Yongwu

Capital

"Your Majesty, this is absolutely impossible"

"Why not?" Emperor Jing asked coldly.

The prime minister took a step forward and said earnestly, "Foreign enemies are all around, Your Majesty will cut off important ministers first, so the generals will be separated, and the court will be in danger."

"Treason is outside, but traitors are not eliminated, how can we win?" Emperor Jing patted the table and looked at him.

"However, this matter involves a lot." The prime minister knelt down, kowtowed and said, "Please think twice, Your Majesty!"

Emperor Jing looked at him, pursed his lips and did not make a sound. The prime minister was an old minister left by the late emperor. He intended to help him stabilize the court, and he had been loyally assisting him.

"I see, you go down"

"Your Majesty" the old eunuch stood beside him and said in a low voice, "Report from the Imperial Hospital, the Empress Dowager is ill."

sick?Emperor Jing narrowed his eyes, and said with a slanted look, "I'm going to visit the Queen Mother to see what kind of illness she has."

In the Changxin Hall, Emperor Jing repelled the palace servants in the hall, stood in front of the Empress Dowager, and looked at her with lowered eyebrows.

"I heard that the queen mother is ill?"

The Queen Mother glanced at him and said, "I also heard that His Majesty is very busy recently?"

"Huh!" Emperor Jing sat in front of her with a sneer, and said to her, "I still have Tianshun Xiongguan, the northern army has already gone south, and it will not be long before Guan Zhongqin's army will return, and the Queen Mother will be able to reunite with your son at that time." "

"Then I will congratulate Your Majesty." The Queen Mother also sneered.

"Queen Mother, both you and Qin Hao regard yourself as too important, and you always overestimate your own capabilities. Even if King Yan is unexpected, it's just a small ailment of scabies!"

"Your Majesty" the queen mother looked at him with extreme contempt, "You also take yourself too seriously. Without you, this palace is still the queen mother, and the officials in the Yongshou Palace are still the pillars of the court."

"That's right, I want to see who will have the last laugh."

Emperor Jing left Changxin Hall, and the Empress Dowager sat up and looked at him as he was leaving slowly, her eyes were fierce, and there was no sign of illness.

Showa-dono

Emperor Jing sat quietly behind the table, the last sentence of his hometown seemed to mean something else, otherwise, where would his confidence come from.

"You go," he said to the old eunuch close to him, "check the court, who has secretly colluded with King Qi and King Yan?"

"Yes"

Tianshunguan

Standing in the night, Qin Yu watched Tianshun turn off the dotted lights. The closer he was to the capital, the more eagerness in his heart became stronger, as if longing and resentment that had been accumulated for too long were about to erupt at this moment.

"Sixth brother" King Qi stood beside him, "The northern army has arrived at Tianshun Pass, and the king of Anyang has sent a letter, indicating that he intends to retreat."

"That's good when we get there," Qin Yu said casually.

King Qi looked at him calmly and said, "Isn't the sixth brother not worried at all?"

"Brother Huang, don't you know what kind of person Qin Zheng is?"

"Qin Zhenghe is conceited and suspicious, but he is self-willed. If not for his father's planning and protection, he would also want to sit on the throne."

"That's right, but Qin Zheng has always regarded himself very highly, and he also regarded himself as the eldest son. It can only be said that his father protected him too well." Qin Yu smiled, and his expression turned cold when he looked at the capital. From Qin Zheng's point of view, this is unacceptable, so he must be in a hurry at the moment. The coalition forces are attacking rapidly, and they have arrived at Tianshun Pass in eight months. At this moment, Qin Zheng is already a mad dog who has been driven mad, and mad dogs can bite people indiscriminately. of"

"However, the prime minister will definitely stop him from biting people, and will never let Qin Zheng disturb the court," King Qi added.

"Brother Huang, my younger brother has often given gifts to the capital these years, and his prime minister was not spared either. Who taught him not to restrain his nephews? Qin Zheng hates younger brother and imperial brother, especially younger brother, who is already extremely cunning in his eyes." So, he will never let anyone related to my younger brother go, Song Yi, the deputy general of the Northern Territory, is one of them."

Song Yi was in charge of King Yan's army, but King Yan rebelled, and King Yan's army changed from [-] to [-], how could Qin Zheng keep him.

"Report" sentry cavalry knelt down, "Someone from Tianshun Pass is coming, begging to see King Qi"

"Brother Huang" Qin Yu looked at him and said with a smile, "Song Yi has brought a gift to Brother Huang"

"Haha" King Qi laughed and left.

In the first month of the fourth year of Zhengming, the lieutenant of the Northern Military Academy released Song Yi privately. The soldiers mutinied and killed the general.

The Yan-Qi Allied Forces passed through Tianshun Pass, and the road ahead was smooth without any obstacles. The northern border army rebelled, and Emperor Jing had no rescuers.

"Sixth brother, if you pass here, everything will be over," King Qi said on horseback.

"That's right." Qin Yu looked in the direction of the capital, a fire burst out in his eyes, "It's over."

King Qi looked at him, and suddenly remembered that many years ago, when the sixth brother had just turned one year old, his mother hugged the sixth brother to Concubine Yue, and he knelt on the ground and begged his mother not to do this. That was the first time he disobeyed his mother. He didn't agree, and gave himself a slap in the face.

Since then, he has always defended the sixth brother, and no matter what trouble he caused, he was willing to take care of him. Only that time, Lord Mu, he himself rejected him.

Now that he received that letter in Pengcheng, it was just a few words, filled with overwhelming hatred, he could hardly believe that this was his sixth brother.Looking back on the past three years, he knew Qin Yu's groveling in the capital, and he knew how the Liu family insulted Qin Yu when he entered Yandi.

It seems that you have always been so smart, but Brother Huang didn't realize it.

"Emperor Brother" Qin Yu interrupted King Qi's thoughts and said, "This battle must be quick."

"Hehe, how fast?" King Qi said in a half-joking tone.

"As soon as the people in the capital are panicked, so soon that they want to abandon Qin Zheng in fear and welcome us into the city." Qin Yu's tone was not teasing, but cold as a rock.

King Qi was startled, nodded and urged to speed up.If I sat on the throne back then, if I could help, there would not be so many ifs in the world!

Capital

Qin Yu and King Qi sat in the big tent, and there was a lot of shouting and killing outside. Three days ago when the army arrived in the capital, Qin Yu immediately ordered to attack the city day and night. Positive deal.He wanted the people in this city to be filled with fear, he wanted the exhausted people to have to open the city gates, he wanted Qin Zheng to fall into despair and have no time to care about him.

Suddenly there was an abnormal shout outside, King Qi and he looked up at each other at the same time.

"Brother Huang is wrongly worried, I'll go take a look at the front of the battle." Qin Yu comforted and walked out.

"Six brothers be careful"

Qin Yu rode his horse to the front of the battle, Wang Meng ran over and said to him, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty has come to the city wall to labor."

Qin Yu looked up and saw a yellow figure flickering on the city wall.He sneered, struggling to the death, can he defend the city by personally coming to labor? He really thinks he is a god!

Suddenly, Qin Yu saw a white figure appearing next to the yellow figure, so elegant, so haunting in his dreams.

"Shaoyun" Qin Yu whispered as if in a dream, the figure stood far away from the city, but it was clearly imprinted in his eyes, he drew out his bow and arrows, and Qin Yu's bowstring was full.

Whoosh!Ling Yu was right on the top of the city in front of Qin Zheng, and the army applauded.Throwing down the bow and arrow, Qin Yu snorted coldly, and said with a gloomy face, "Your Majesty, that's a traitor, hurry up and attack the city!"

"Yes"

Qin Yu sat on the horse, and the black-armored soldiers launched a new round of attack. He stared coldly at the top of the city where the man in white disappeared.I said that I will never give up, even if the capital is razed to the ground, I will not hesitate.

On the sixth day of the siege, the city was broken. Even a city like the capital could not withstand such an attack. The last impact of the battering ram finally made the broken city gate unbearable and fell to the ground with a bang.Qin Yu was the first to rush into the city on his horse, and the guarding army retreated to the streets and alleys of the inner city. Qin Yu led the army towards the palace.

The golden rubble, the vermilion gate, and if there were no shouts of killing nearby, the imperial palace under the slanting sun would be no different from the splendor he remembered in the past, but the bloody smell from the corpses all over the floor destroyed the elegance and luxury.

Shaoyun, I'm here to pick you up.

When King Qi came to the palace, the palace gate had already been opened. He urged his horse to enter slowly, grabbed a soldier beside him and asked, "Where is King Yan?" I ran away when I knew it.

"My lord, I heard that King Yan has arrived in the harem," his personal guard replied in a low voice.

King Qi glanced at the direction of the harem, and said to the people around him, "Follow me to the main hall." He wanted to see Qin Zheng, and the years of fighting between him and Qin Zheng should come to an end.

The soldiers in full armor rushed into the palace with King Qi, and there was a sound of metal clanging footsteps on the imperial steps in front of the Yongshou Palace. He pushed open the high palace door, and Qin Zheng was waiting for him.

Emperor Jing was sitting on the dragon chair with his chest full. Although his hair was a little disheveled, he had a solemn expression, like a vassal king summoned to an audience, maintaining the majesty of the last emperor.

"Long time no see, second brother, you've finally turned your back on you." Qin Zheng said lightly when he saw the strong and stubborn King Qi.

"You murdered the king and usurped the throne, I am seeking rebellion" Qi Wang looked at him and replied calmly.

"Hahaha" Qin Zheng seemed to have heard a big joke, he stared at King Qi, the mockery on his face was self-evident.

"Qin Hao, you know in your heart whether I am usurping the throne, and you also know who is rebelling. If it weren't for the queen mother to win over the forces and fight against the father, I would have been the prince. If I hadn't miscalculated King Yan, you would have been the prince too. My subordinates are imprisoned." Qin Zheng gritted his teeth and accused him and Qin Yu of their hypocrisy.

King Qi gave him a pitiful look, and said calmly, "It's meaningless, I won, you must be a usurper"

"That's right, it's meaningless." Qin Zheng finally bent his back and leaned on the chair slumped.

After a long while, he suddenly looked up at Qin Hao and said with a sneer, "You think it's over when you sit on the throne. The wind in this capital has never stopped, and this throne has never been safe."

puff!The light of the knife flickered, and Qin Zheng's hand holding the knife fell down feebly, and blood gushed out from his neck. King Qi watched his blood flow over the golden dragon chair and soak the brocade cushion. His eyes were scarlet.

Harem

Qin Yu urged his horse to walk towards Pinnacle Palace, hurriedly crossed the palace gate, black smoke billowed from the side hall of Pinnacle Palace, a circle of soldiers surrounded the collapsed palace, Wang Meng turned around and saw him, hesitant to speak .

A strong fear suddenly rose in Qin Yu's heart, as if someone was shouting in his mind, he walked forward unconsciously, pushing away the crowd.

Finally, he still saw a person lying on his stomach under the collapsed palace wall, his upper body was pressed under the collapsed rubble, and only two legs could be seen.Qin Yu looked at the familiar white clothes, which were exactly the same as the ones he saw on the top of the city that day.

With his feet softening, Qin Yu knelt down on the ground, and began to frantically dig out the rubble that was pressing on the man, even though the boulder was not something he could move, even if the rubble was extremely sharp.

Suddenly a hand emerged from the ruins, and a bronze talisman slipped from that hand, and fell to the ground with a tinkling sound, ringing in Qin Yu's ears.The copper talisman was covered with dust, but it was still so dazzling to Qin Yu. He raised his hand to pick up the copper talisman, and Qin Yu held it in front of his eyes, as if to identify its authenticity.

That's right, this is the peace talisman given to him by the abbot of Tenryuji Temple on the day they first met.

The surroundings became very quiet in an instant, he couldn't hear Wang Meng's voice calling him, the golden bronze talisman in front of him became bigger and bigger, and it kept spinning, until finally his eyes went dark and he lost consciousness.

Later Qin Yu woke up and rushed out madly, but was stopped by King Qi.Brother Huang told him that when the city was broken, Qin Zheng ordered Lord Lan to be killed and set fire to the palace. If the palace hadn't collapsed and crushed the body, he might not even see him for the last time.

Qin Yu listened to his words as if in a dream, and then he was seriously ill for a month. After recovering from his illness, the emperor's elder brother had already ascended the throne, and he became the king of Jin, owning the land of eight counties, which occupied almost half of Dayong, and became the king of Jin. The most powerful prince in the empire.But he didn't feel anything, all the joys, anger and sorrows in this world abandoned him in an instant, he asked his brother for Shao Yun's ashes and buried them in the back garden of the palace, and then he asked for an order to go to the northern border to guard the border.

In the first month of the fourth year of Zhengming, Emperor Xuan Qin Hao ascended the throne, and the fourth year of Zhengming was changed to the first year of Yonghe. King Yu of Yan sought rebellion from the dragon and was granted the title of King of Jin.In the Dayong Dynasty, the two kings of Qin and Jin never bestowed gifts easily, and they could not be granted unless they were of noble birth and outstanding achievements.

In March of the first year of Yonghe, Jin Wangyu asked for an order to guard the northern border, and Emperor Xuan agreed.

In mid-May, Qin Yu led his troops out to the north. The sun cast a huge shadow under the thick city walls. He ran forward desperately but always felt that he couldn't escape. Qin Yu never dared to look back at the capital while riding a horse.

It was only after many years that I realized that I was young and reckless at that time, seemingly exquisite, but actually stupid.He thought he could fix everything, but he couldn't see the turbulent waves under the deep pool. A small stone can change the fate of too many people.

Yonghe two years

The bitter cold wind blows from the north of Xuancheng, and the wind skips over the snow-covered grassland and makes a cry of 'woo-woo', as if trying to escape from this area.Qin Yu stood on the wall of Xuancheng with his hands behind his back, watching the Beihu army retreating gradually, sporadic snowflakes reflected in his eyes, and he couldn't tell what the master was thinking.

"Wang Meng, lead the army to Mabao in the north to intercept Beihu's army and drive them to Qishan. I will lead people to ambush in Qishan," Qin Yu ordered.

"My lord, the Northern Hu army retreated in an orderly manner. I'm afraid it's fraudulent. Besides, the losses of the Hu people in this battle were not serious. I'm afraid it would be a mistake to attack rashly," Wang Meng said cautiously.

Ever since the king of Jin asked himself to guard the border, he has been emotionally unstable, and seems to have lost his composure and rigor.Qin Yu didn't say anything, Wang Meng understood that he didn't agree.

"My lord, it's better for the last general to lead the troops to ambush at Mount Qi. My lord will lead the army to pursue." Wang Meng took a step back and said.

Qin Yu frowned, and said, "Now you are in charge or this king is in charge. Immediately organize the army."

Wang Meng opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but King Jin had already turned around and went down the city wall.He closed his mouth helplessly, followed him down the city wall, and headed for Marburg.

Wang Meng led the army to chase to Mabao, but saw Hu Junzha building a meal. From a distance, there were many tents, but he didn't know the reality.He ordered the vanguard general to charge with most of the cavalry, and he took [-] cavalry to the rear to prevent any changes.The forward rushed into the camp, only a few tents had people rushing out, most of them remained silent, Wang Meng felt faintly in his heart that something was wrong.

"There is no one in the general's tent," the forward sentry suddenly replied.

"Not good, my lord!!"

The mouth of Qishan Valley is in the shape of a gourd. As long as the two sides are blocked, even if there are [-] troops inside, there is no way.Gradually approaching the entrance of the valley, Qin Yu raised his hand to signal to slow down, and five thousand troops slowly entered the valley. Qin Yu planned to block the exit, and waited for Wang Meng to force Hu Jun into the valley. After winning the battle, Beihu might have to stop for a while.

Qin Yu rode his horse into the valley, when suddenly the sound of hoofbeats came from behind him, and when he looked back, he saw that the North Hu army had blocked the way ahead.Turning around at this time, he could only confuse his position. Qin Yu clamped his horse's belly and ordered the whole army to rush forward out of the valley, but when he reached the valley, he found that the Beihu cavalry in front of him was waiting for him in a warlike formation.

When Wang Meng arrived at Taniguchi, Beihu's army had already retreated, leaving corpses all over the ground.General of the Northern Territory, if King Jin really dies here, it won't be long before Beihu will attack across the board, and Xuanfu, Shuocheng, Yuyang and other cities will fall one after another.

He hurriedly jumped off his horse and ordered the whole army to search for the corpse, and he must find King Jin.An hour later, King Jin's body was not found at the mouth of the valley, and he might have fled to the depths of Mount Qi. Wang Meng secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but he looked up at the vast Qishan Mountains, and he did not feel relieved.

Where are you, my lord?

Qin Yu was protected by the guards and rushed out of the valley, but the horse was frightened, and ran uncontrollably to the depths of Qishan for a while. He lost a lot of blood from the arrow in his shoulder, and he was already in a daze. He was about to fall asleep, and he couldn't control the direction at all.

The war horse neighed suddenly, and when Qin Yu raised his head, there was a cliff in front of him, and the cold wind rolled up the snowflakes below the cliff.The sliding horse on the snowy road stopped in no hurry, he kicked the horse subconsciously, and jumped backwards.

boom! ! !With a shock, Qin Yu bumped into an ancient pine and fell, and the accumulated snow on the ancient pine fell rustlingly.He looked at the falling snow, and suddenly he was no longer in pain and struggle. He felt that it would be good to die here. He reached out and touched the bronze talisman on his chest, and Qin Yu passed out.

It's just that things in this world don't always go as you wish, when death is the best gift, how can it be given to you so easily.
