The rebirth of the poisonous concubine

Chapter 420 Infiltrating the Eastern Zhou Dynasty
When Xu Qiushui was dragged away, he was still shouting: "Qin Wange! It's you, right? You're the one who came back, didn't you come back for revenge? Did you—"

There was a faint smile on the corner of Qin Wange's mouth, but his eyes were cold: Xu Qiushui, I told you earlier that I'm back.

Unfortunately, you don't believe me.

Blame it?

One night, the situation in Caiyue Palace changed, and two lives were lost, but no one would cherish it.

Situ Rui issued three imperial decrees in succession.One is that the empress is grounded; the other is that the imperial concubine will take care of the six palaces from now on, and the concubine Yun will be the assistant manager;

No one knows that all the servants in Caiyue Palace were killed that night; no one knows that the imperial physicians who went to Caiyue Palace that night were ordered to keep silent; After that night, he had nightmares for three days. Whenever he closed his eyes, he would see the dead Qin Wange, Wu Lianxin and Xia Heyue in front of him.

The once extravagant Caiyue Palace has become a ghostly place that everyone avoids overnight, and the palace people dare not mention the word "Caiyue Palace" anymore.Afraid of causing trouble to his upper body if he is not careful, he will deliberately bypass it when walking.

However, even though Situ Rui repeatedly ordered that the events of that night not to be leaked, the news still leaked.

There are rumors that the emperor summoned two concubines to bed at the same time, and the three of them went together, which is extremely absurd; The dead emperor and noble concubine ruled out dissidents, clearly out of jealousy and self-serving public interests, and lacked the magnanimity of the mother of the country.

There are also rumors that Wu Pin and Xia Pin were charged with assassinating the emperor, but after Xia Pin and Wu Pin were bestowed dead, the empress was put under house arrest instead, and the relationship was very delicate.

The more the royal family wanted to suppress these things, the faster and more outrageous the rumors spread.

People's words are terrifying, the image of Situ Rui and Xu Qiushui, the most noble couple in the world, has completely collapsed in the hearts of the people all over the world. Si, and Xu Qiushui's house arrest has been completely exposed as a fig leaf.

As for the queen who has lost her reputation as a virtuous and virtuous queen, some past events were immediately revealed by someone, saying that the queen was just a maid next to the former queen. Being canonized is a typical act of treachery and forgetting one's ancestors. There are even rumors that the death of the former queen may be related to the queen.

Rumors spread like wildfire, and soon everyone knew about it, and the city was full of wind and rain.Worse than the plague.

……

Before Qin Wange conquered Eastern Zhou, Eastern Zhou was actually the same as Xiling, the two most powerful countries on this continent, with equal strength.

Xiling ruled the country with literature, valued literature over military, and its economy developed very rapidly. It was the richest country in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty; the Eastern Zhou Dynasty advocated the country with martial arts. Both women and children grew up on horseback. It was the most powerful country in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. big country.

However, Xiling was not as good as the Eastern Zhou Dynasty in terms of military affairs, and all horses and weapons were purchased from the Eastern Zhou Dynasty; while the economy of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty was not as good as that of Xiling, and many ordinary people lived in Xiling.Each has its own strengths, and no one breaks the balance.

Until Qin Wange appeared.The Qin family was originally a rare family of military generals in Xiling who were highly valued by the court, and Qin Wange was a once-in-a-century genius.She was invincible on the battlefield, bringing the glory of Xiling to an era of invincibility.Even the Eastern Zhou Dynasty could only submit to Xiling.

This was a huge humiliation for Dong Zhou.So over the years, the Eastern Zhou Dynasty cultivated itself and encouraged the common people to join the army. There was even a clear law: if someone in the family joined the army, the tax could be reduced or exempted. This was a disguised form of encouraging the common people to practice martial arts and join the army.

In the imperial capital of Xiling, the Qinlou Chu Pavilion is the most popular place, where literati and inkmen drink tea and chat; while in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, you can see rings everywhere on the street.

Not only did the Eastern Zhou Dynasty not prohibit private fighting among the common people, but the imperial court also set up arenas everywhere, and those who challenged the arenas would be rewarded with silver;Therefore, all these years, the Eastern Zhou Dynasty has all the people and its military strength is strong. Compared with the status quo of Xiling's self-destructive pillars and long-standing disadvantages, it does not know how many times stronger. Therefore, it is also expected that the Eastern Zhou Dynasty raised troops against Xiling at this time.

At this time, on the streets of the Eastern Zhou capital, a young man wearing a bamboo hat and gauze hat appeared. He was dressed in blue clothes and looked inconspicuous.

The young man in Tsing Yi was followed by four people, one was wearing a blue Confucian shirt, his face was a little pale, he was very handsome, but he was a little weak; People dare not approach.Two others were dressed as bodyguards, in plain black.

The five masters and servants walked on the street, and there was nothing conspicuous. If it was conspicuous, it would be that the green shirt of the young man in Tsing Yi faintly had dark lines surging under the sun. A rare brocade, a rare piece of gold.

This group of five people entered the best "Emperor Building" in the Eastern Zhou capital. This place is notoriously expensive. Even a pot of tea is enough for ordinary people to eat for a year.

Young Master Tsing Yi found a private room as soon as he entered the door, ordered a table of meals, and asked no one to disturb him.

It was not until the door of the private room was closed that Young Master Tsing Yi took off the bamboo hat.

I saw the person under the bamboo hat, his appearance was extremely exquisite and charming, especially his eyes were as deep as a cold pool of water, and they were as bright as the stars in the sky. Some people would mistake him for a woman, his brows and eyes are cold, and there is an aura about him, which is so natural that people dare not look directly at it, let alone ignore it.

Looking at the pedestrians coming and going outside the window, the young man in Tsing Yi sighed, but did not speak.

The man next to him who looked like a scholar in blue, resting his cheeks, lazily moved the dishes in front of him with his chopsticks, and sighed: "Young master, to be honest, you really don't suit this expression of bitterness and hatred. You said that if the eldest princess sees your expression, she will make fun of you."

Young Master Tsing Yi was none other than Situ Yan who should have been in Yongzhou City, but came to Eastern Zhou at the risk of his own life in order to find Harry.

And the man in blue is naturally Mu Qing.

Situ Yan glanced at Mu Qing lightly, his expression was a bit dignified, and he ignored his jokes.

Seeing his appearance, Mu Qing also put away his joking attitude, and said seriously: "Since you came to Dong Zhou, you have been frowning all the time, are you worried that you won't find Harry, or are you worried that you will hear bad news when you meet Xuanyuan Lie?" Good news?"

"Neither." Situ Yan said casually with a wine glass in his hand.

"Then who do you show your face that others owe you several million taels of silver? Could it be that you are thinking about the eldest princess?"

Mu Qing's words were never far-fetched, as soon as he spoke, he received Situ Yan's knife-like gaze, so he had to keep his mouth shut.

"My lord sees that all the people in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty are soldiers, and even the common people are actively practicing martial arts, while my dynasty values ​​civility and despises martial arts, and the emperor suppresses the generals in the army. The national power is gradually declining, but Yelang is still arrogant. Is he sighing in his heart?"

After a long time, Liu Chenyue carefully chose her words and asked cautiously.

"Does brother Liu feel the same way?" Situ Yan said lightly.

For the convenience of going out, Situ Yan and Liu Chenyue brothers commensurate, saving a lot of red tape.

"Yeah, I think back when the former queen was here, how prosperous was the national power of Xiling? The overlord of one side was famous far and wide. Neighboring countries did not dare to invade the frontier. But now, those four generals died, relegated and resigned. Officer. Only General Fang Zhe is left. And the Qin family army was torn apart and can no longer be found.”

Speaking of Qin Wange, Liu Chenyue talked more than usual.

Although Liu Chenyue is a scholar, she also yearns for a military life in her heart.This is also the reason why Liu Chenyue went to Yongzhou with the army without hesitation.Born in Liu's family, as a man, who wouldn't want to "repay the king's favor on the golden platform, and carry the jade dragon to die for the king."

When Liu Chenyue mentioned Qin Wange, Situ Yan was taken aback for a moment, but soon laughed.

"Yeah, if she was here, Xiling would have been the overlord long ago, so why be afraid of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty." It seemed to be a sigh of emotion and a whisper.It's just that the voice is very soft, and I don't know if Liu Chenyue heard it.

Long Weiwei was afraid that Liu Chenyue would mention which pot was not opened by the first queen, so he quickly changed the subject and said, "My lord, you said Xuanyuan Lie would come here, but he is Prince Rong, and Xuanyuan Yu is watching every move he makes." Dead tight. How did he come here?"

After Xuanyuan Lie returned to the Eastern Zhou Dynasty with the help of Situ Yan, he gathered his confidants and formed a confrontation with Xuanyuan Yu.Xuanyuan Yu originally planned to trap Xuanyuan Lie on the charge of killing the king and murdering his father and seeking to usurp the throne, but who would have thought that Xuanyuan Lie would preemptively strike him.

Xuanyuan Lie announced to the world that the late emperor died of witchcraft, and all officials in the court demanded a thorough investigation of the late emperor's death.

Xuanyuanyu was guilty of being a thief, and could no longer make a big fuss about the death of the late emperor. He could only watch Xuanyuanlie return to court, and had no choice but to make him Prince Rong.

Right now, the battle between the two brothers has reached a fever pitch.

So Long Wei's worry was not unreasonable.

"It's about the poisonous Gu on Longshouyuan, he won't stop coming." Situ Yan was not worried at all.

Liu Chenyue said worriedly: "Xuanyuan Lie has already controlled most of the power in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. If their brothers join forces and plan to fight the outside world first and then settle down inside, or if he wants to use the word dragging technique and stay put, wait for us to fight Xuanyuan Yu." If you live or die, if he reaps the benefits of being a fisherman and annexes Xiling, what should he do?"

"No." Situ Yan said firmly.

"Haha, does the king of Lingzhou believe in this king?" A smiling voice came from the door, but a man wearing a black hat pushed the door and entered.

With a baby face but terribly gloomy eyes, it was Xuanyuan Lie.
