In the first year of the New Year of the Empire, just after the Spring Festival, a heavy rain fell across Beiyang.
In the sound of rain and a peaceful atmosphere, Beiyang King Beitangxiong suddenly passed away. The whole country whineeded and covered the fields. With the assistance of Beiyang ancestor Beitanghui, the national teacher Xuanguang, and the censor Wei Ye and others, Beiyang Empire's second prince, Beitang Jiju, ascended the throne.
The eldest prince Beitangjun, who was far away in Yan County, refused to admit that Beitang Ciju ascended the throne, expanded his army in Yan County, stored grain, and was ready to cross the Yanshan Mountains at any time and faced the imperial city.
Whether it is the central officials or the local princes, they are in a dilemma. Beitang Jun and Beitang Jiju each have their own advantages. Once the war starts, it is still hard to say who wins and who loses.
Most officials chose to wait and see, and both sides did not help each other.
But there were also many officials who resigned from their seals and fled to the Beitangjun, Yan County. Most of these officials were corrupt officials and officials who were often suppressed and afraid of being suppressed by Wei Ye. If Beitang Jiju had firmly settled the throne, then Wei Ye, who was the "imperial teacher", would definitely rise. At that time, not only would they not be able to maintain their official positions, but they might also lose their lives.
Three days after Beitango's death, at the northern gate of the imperial capital, a steady stream of people fled north.
Wei Ye stood at the city gate and did not stop it. Instead, he was happy to see it. These fish and fish people, the domineering corrupt officials, would have one less loophole in the empire.
In such a wave, the "Taiwei" "Huangfu Zongyang" and his son Huangfu Tenghui; the "Shaofu" and "Bai Kun" and his son "Bai Liang" who was crippled by Ye Junlin; the "Caihou" and "Beitang Cai" and others left the capital one after another.
Interestingly, when Beitang Cai left, he sold all the land, and his property was as many as 100 cars!
On the city tower, Kitado Jiko looked at the crowd who had escaped in a hurry and couldn't help but curse: "What an old thief!"
After saying that, I was so angry that I gritted my teeth.
With so much wealth, I wonder how many people this Beitang wealth has harmed.
Corrupt officials were getting farther and farther away. Not only did they not get angry, but they became more and more happy. Not only did these corrupt officials not care about him, but instead went to harm his elder brother. Why not do it if you kill two birds with one stone?
As he climbed up to look into the distance, Kitado Jima sighed.
Since the death of the Beitang Yu and he ascended the throne, this child has grown a lot. He can no longer be called a child. Now, the Beitang Jima is a growing little dragon.
While Beitang Jiju was thinking, Prime Minister "Huang Longshi", "Fengchang" Zhao Lin, "Zongzheng" "Bonus Yang", and "Grandmaster" Liu Wenzhao led a group of civil and military officials to the city tower.
Before he could speak, Huang Longshi and others knelt in front of Jiju, Beidang: "I represent the remaining civil and military officials of the court, and swear to my king that if I betray the court in this life, I will be struck by lightning!"
After Huang Longshi finished speaking, all the civil officials and military generals agreed.
Beitang Jiju's heart was burning, and she trembled and helped Huang Longshi up, and then said to the ministers: "You are not letting go of me, I will never let you down."
On the city tower, we shouted "Long Live" together, and the shouts were shaking the sky.
Huang Longshi walked to Ye Junlin and Wei Ye with Huang Yuyang who was afraid of being like a chicken, and clasped his fists and said, "Two generals, I know that this unworthy descendant and two have some celebrations. I wonder if you can forgive this unfilial grandson for taking this old face."
Ye Junlin was startled and quickly returned the courtesy, "Where is the Prime Minister, Junlin is ashamed of taking responsibility."
Wei Ye also clasped his fists and echoed: "Young people are full of energy and they are bound to have some bumps and bumps. Prime Minister, don't worry."
Under the witness of many civil and military officials, Huang Yuyang and Ye Junlin shook hands and made peace.
The sun shone on the city tower, shining brightly. Beidou Jima looked at the sky in the distance and sighed: "Beidou Jun, I'm ready, do you dare to come?"
......
......
Southeast of the empire, Yue County.
Gu Jiantang sat high in the hall, holding a forgery in his hand. The forgery was issued by Beitangjun. The contents of the forgery can be imagined with his toes: it is nothing more than saying that he should be "reaching the eldest, not the youngest". He should be the King of Beiyang. The throne of Beitang Jiju was not from the right way, so he asked Gu Jiantang to send troops to help.
Gu Jiantang sneered and threw the edict in his hand to the ground.
Beside him, three of his confidants were: General "Shadow", adviser Zhao Suming, and Song Chuyang, the lord of Qixia Valley Valley.
"What do you think about this?" Gu Jiantang looked around the three of them and then asked.
Shadow didn't say a word. He was so brave and lacked in intelligence, and usually did not make any comments. Zhao Suming frowned, as if he was thinking about something, but he did not say a word.
Song Chuyang was the first to speak: "Marty, my subordinates believed that the second prince ascended the throne, as well as the assistants of famous ministers such as Wei Ye and Huang Longshi should be the destiny of heaven. I can watch the changes in Yue County, so it is not advisable to interfere."
When Gu Jiantang heard this, he nodded gently.
When he fought with Ye Junlin, he knew the terror of "Xuanwang". He wanted him to fight with two Xuanwangs at the same time, he really didn't have the courage.
Zhao Suming looked up, observed his expression, and soon realized Gu Jiantang's thoughts: he didn't want to fight.
So he also stood up and said, "I also think our army should wait and see. Let the two princes decide the winner and lose. Then make plans..."
Gu Jiantang listened quietly, raised his head and said, "Continue talking."
Zhao Suming held a punch and continued, "If the eldest prince wins, our army will lead our troops to attack the imperial city. If the second prince wins, our army will send troops to support us. In this way, no matter whether it is the eldest prince or the second prince, they will give the marquis a sufficient benefit and ask the marquis to come out. In this way, no matter who wins, the marquis can maximize the benefits!"
"Okay!" After Zhao Suming analyzed, Gu Jiantang laughed and slapped the armrest of the chair.
......
......
A hundred miles away from the imperial capital, Born Farm.
Five hundred rangers with different costumes and weapons stood under the stage of the general in a very regular manner. Deng Boen walked onto the stage of the general with a long sword in his hand and shouted: "Brothers, the eldest prince has raised us for so many years. It's time for us to contribute to the eldest prince."
"Feel the eldest prince and the eldest prince!"
After Deng Boyen finished speaking, the rangers below shouted.
Deng Boen waved his hand and continued, "Now the eldest prince has gathered troops and is preparing to attack the imperial city. Our mission is to sneak into the imperial city, take the opportunity to open the city gate, and let the eldest prince enter the city. When the eldest prince sits in the Beiyang King, we will be successful and enjoy endless wealth and glory!"
"It's endless to enjoy it, it's endless to enjoy it..."
Under the command of Deng Boen, many rangers shouted slogans and sneaked into Beiyang Imperial City...
