Nine-fold lotus of the famous family

Chapter 413 The sudden emergence of an army, King Yan wins the heir (2)
Shi Chongguang is an old fox, but he is not as honest and reckless as he looks on the outside. Pei Yan naturally knows this. Fortunately, this person is quite broad-minded, and he will not haggle over this matter with him.

"Those who make big things don't care about small things, so stop flattering each other, both of you!"

King Yan pursed his thin lips, smiled lightly, turned his head to look at Pei Yan, and said cautiously: "Has it been agreed with General Ye that we will take his token to Fengtai Camp, and we will really get it?" Support there?"

Although the generals of Xishan Daying are honorable, they have no real power, and they are only playing tricks on the outside world, but if they can get their support, they will undoubtedly have mastered most of the power of the nobles of the scholar family, and they will take the lead in public opinion. machine.

As for the Fengtai camp, that is the elite troops guarding the capital, but the situation is unclear now, they did not stand in line, and even the King of Lingnan sent people to lobby and failed to bring them under his command. in half.

Pei Yan wasn't sure about this, but when he heard King Yan's question, he thought for a while before replying cautiously: "According to General Ye, he and Dudu He of Fengtai Camp had a lifelong friendship. It is not because of his advice, Dudu He will not remain neutral now, the attitudes of the two are on the same line, but now Lord Ye has joined the prince, if we take Master Ye's letters and tokens to persuade Dudu He , must be able to get twice the result with half the effort."

Having said that, Pei Yan had already stood up, took two steps back, raised her robe and knelt down in front of King Yan, bowing her head and said: "Your Majesty, if you are willing to go to Fengtai Camp, you must persuade He Dudu to serve you!"

"it is good!"

King Yan's eyes were shining brightly, he helped Pei Yan up with great arrogance, and slapped his strong arm heavily with his palm, his eyes were full of pride, "I have a loyal and brave man like you under my command, so why worry about the big things not going to happen? !"

Only then did Shi Chongguang come over with a glass of wine, and said with a smile: "It's really gratifying to congratulate the prince for having such a talented person. I first wish Mr. Pei every success!" King Yan, give Pei Yan a cup, and take another cup in his hand.

The three looked at each other and smiled, raised their heads and drank the wine in the glass.

In an old and quaint courtyard outside Shangjing, Li Zhaozheng was leaning on a black lacquered chair with his feet up, playing with a flying fish dagger in his hand, looking casually at the kneeling man in front of him. The sapphire blue robe was dragged on the ground, with gorgeous patterns embroidered on the chest, and the arrow sleeves were gradually tightened at the wrists, and the luxurious silver trim was chosen to look very extravagant. He grinned, and he was dressed like a dude.

After a long while, I heard Li Zhao's voice faintly, with a touch of coldness, "So...the man was lost?"

"Yes, a little carelessness..."

The man kneeling on the ground couldn't help trembling, and the sweat on his forehead rolled down to the ground in big drops.

"You can lose track of everyone, what's the use of you?!"

Li Zhao's complexion became tense, and his aura became fierce. Just as he was speaking, he flicked his wrist, and the dagger flew past, drawing a shining silver light, and then smashed the man's right hand. It was firmly nailed to the blue brick floor, and the blood immediately soaked the ground.

The man kneeling on the ground did not dare to cry out the pain at all, he could only clenched his teeth and endured desperately, his forehead was so painful that the veins popped out, and he did not forget to say: "Your Majesty, calm down, although the little one is lost, but according to him The way forward should be to Fengtai Camp!"

"Pei Yan is going to Fengtai Camp?"

Li Zhao sat up straight suddenly, a cold light flashed in his eyes.

Pei Yan is now under King Yan's command, and he has never forgotten it since that sword revenge.

Xiliang is now at war with Liangcheng. It is reasonable to say that Pei Yan should not appear near Shangjing, but he just came here and went to Fengtai camp. Does it mean that King Yan is not as honest as he appears? Obedient, but also has the ambition to seize the heir?
"Sir?"

The man called out in a low voice, raised his eyebrows and looked at Li Zhao, and then lowered them very quickly.

Li Zhao's face darkened, "Since we know that he has gone to Fengtai camp, can anyone pay attention to the movement there?"

The man replied tremblingly, "The young one left someone over there. If there is any movement over there, report it immediately!"

"Get off!"

Li Zhao stood up and looked at the man condescendingly, "If you mess up the errand next time, you don't have to come back!"

"Yes!"

The man responded with a trembling voice, endured the pain and pulled out the dagger, wiped it on the hem of his clothes again, and placed it respectfully on the square table beside him, then retreated like flying away.

Li Zhao glanced at the blood dripping on the ground, his face still gloomy.

Unexpectedly, he didn't take the initiative to find trouble with Pei Yan, and this person dared to send it to his door.

Ji Chonglian...Pei Yan...

Li Zhao's eyes darkened, and he gritted his teeth. He knew that these two people had a daughter now, and they were living happily. It's a pity, some people don't know how to cherish blessings!

Li Zhao frowned and thought deeply, not everyone can sneak into Fengtai camp, Pei Yan is a small fourth-rank commander, why should others sell his face... Could it be that he is an acquaintance in the camp, or is someone doing it for him? He as a sponsor?
Li Zhao reversed his mind. Their father and son had already wanted to take over Fengtai Daying. At that time, he was the one who went to see him in person. Unfortunately, this person was ignorant of current affairs and tried to stay calm. He waited until the battle situation was clear before choosing to stand in line. Will he still be needed?
Li Zhao snorted coldly!
As long as Lingnan wins the war, these vacillating people will naturally be cleaned up one by one, especially in these important positions, and their cronies will also be placed.

He won't keep any of He Taboo, Impeller, Dongfang Xing, etc.!
Li Zhao paced back and forth in the house. The sunlight outside the house was just right, and it came in through the half-covered window lattice. Countless dust floated and danced in the light and shadow. He paused, and his fingers slowly passed through the light and shadow. , Seeing that the lines on his palm were covered with a layer of dazzling golden light, he was startled suddenly.

Yan Wang!

Pei Yan appeared here, perhaps King Yan was no longer in Shangjing, and everything the spies reported was probably just an illusion that King Yan wanted to show others!

Thinking of this, Li Zhao immediately called people in, and said, "Quickly, go and find out if there are any troops along the route from the northwest to Shangjing who have avoided the main road, turned the trail and are dispatching secretly, and then find out how many troops are there in Liangcheng." The army is facing the enemy in Xiliang, if you find out, report it quickly!"

Before the visitor could react in a daze, Li Zhao yelled, "Go!"

Seeing the figure of the man retreating hastily, Li Zhao clenched his fists tightly. If King Yan wanted to be that oriole, it would not be so easy!

Perhaps this battle shouldn't be dragged on for too long, and it needs to be resolved quickly so that he can free up his hands to deal with King Yan, the fox that hides in the depths.

The situation on the battlefield changed day by day. At first, the army of the three kings was able to resist, and even faintly trampled on the troops of Gansu and Liaodong.

Li Yan, King of Min, saw the signs and withdrew his army on his own initiative. Regardless of the dissuasion of the other two kings, he returned to the fief with his remaining troops.

Ruyang King Li Heng and Jin Wang Li Shuo were still struggling to support themselves. One night, someone sneaked into the tents of the two princes, and the next day their heads were hung in front of their respective camps. After the defeat, the commander-in-chief was dead at this moment, and the army naturally became a mess. Some generals led the soldiers to retreat to the two kings' fiefs, and some generals led the rest of the army to surrender to the Lingnan King, and the remaining stubborn ones were killed directly. After the incident, a thick bloody atmosphere immediately filled the barracks.

No matter how well the troops dispatched from the northwest were hidden, they were found when they approached the capital, and the duel between King Yan and King Lingnan was bound to happen!
Li Zhao had been on guard against the Fengtai camp for a long time, and now seeing that the people who were leading the Fengtai camp under He Yu had really joined the King Yan's camp, he could only sneer, and even the group of wimps in the Xishan camp who only knew how to eat the family soft food They all showed their attitudes, saying that the King of Lingnan is tyrannical and immoral, and the King of Yan is generous and benevolent, and his conduct is worthy of being an emperor!

The King of Lingnan was so angry that he beheaded thirteen adult men from honorable families one after another, causing a lot of complaints and curses!

If Li Zhao, the eldest son of the Lingnan Prince, was not there to dissuade them, maybe even those female relatives would have been killed by the knife.

All of a sudden, the people were full of grievances, accusing the Lingnan King of being cruel and tyrannical, and there would be no peace and happiness under his rule!

But at this moment, the king of Yan took the secret decree of the first queen and wrote a letter to the world, denouncing the Lingnan king's ambition to usurp the throne by killing the prince of the East Palace due to his own desire, and calling on the people of the world to fight against it.

The King of Lingnan was so angry that he vomited blood, and turned around and imprisoned the former queen. He thought it would be useful to keep the former queen, but he didn't expect this woman to dare to stir up trouble behind his back, so he joined forces with King Yan to stab him!

The battle was imminent, and the King of Lingnan had to go into battle in person, because he lost his vitality in the previous battles with the three kings, and after returning to the palace, he was so angry that he was told by King Yan that he vomited blood. After the meeting, he was shot in the chest by Pei Yan's arrow, and he bled for a while.

After this battle, news of King Lingnan's injury was spread everywhere, and the morale of the army was shaken. King Yan took advantage of the situation to pursue and finally drove Lingnan King and his son out of Shangjing.

The father and son of Lingnan King fought and retreated. Before returning to the fief, the Lingnan King finally died of his injuries. At this time, there was news from Lingnan that the general Xuantong had taken Lingnan under the order of King Yan. , For a while, the Prince of Lingnan was unable to retreat.

It is hard to support alone, Gansu and Liaodong's troops were only half divided to go to Shangjing, but now more than half are lost, two general soldiers are also killed and one injured, and the soldiers are panicked for a while, fleeing and scattered. Originally, there was still a team of ten thousand It soon became empty-handed, and the pursuers were relentless, so Li Zhao could only flee in a hurry under the cover of his personal guards.

The king of Yan won the battle, and all the officials supported him as emperor, set his capital in Shangjing, and changed his year name to Jianyuan.

Because King Yan came from behind, historians finally changed the chaos of the four kings into five kings seizing the heir!
