But such a talented family relative died young. Everyone in Shangluo said that it was Emperor Wu who listened to the slanders of Feng Chen and other treacherous villains and forced King Qi to death.
At the beginning, Emperor Wu of Jin had no intention of letting King Qi return to his vassal state of Qi. It was Feng Chen and others who told Emperor Wu of Jin every day that all the officials in the court were devoted to King Qi. A hundred years later, His Majesty, with the simplicity of the prince,
I am afraid that I will not be able to inherit the throne, so everyone hopes that King Qi can take over from you.
Ziyi Lane, inside Prince Qi's Mansion.
Qi Wang Huangfu sat quietly on the brocade couch and looked at the visitor from Zhao Wang's Mansion: Zhang Lin. He had always known that Zhang Lin and Shen Xiu were both called Zhao Wang Huangfulun's right-hand men.
"Why did Zhang Changshi come here late at night?"
"His Royal Highness the King of Qi, I think His Highness the King of Qi is well aware of what I am doing here this time."
"Oh, how do you know what Zhang Changshi is thinking?"
"We Ming people do not speak secretly. Your Highness, King Qi, my great king is angry that the prince is innocent and has suffered such a disaster, and is determined to stand up and seek justice for the prince. I remember that in the early years of the Shang Dynasty, Empress Lu harmed the Liu family, and it was the Liu family
Several vassal princes came forward to unite with Jiangguan to kill Zhu Lu and rehabilitate the Liu family. Their merits were recorded in the history of Qing Dynasty, and the generous rewards were unprecedented at that time. Your Highness and my king are both vassals of the Huangfu family and are close relatives of the clan. Is it possible?
Do you want to watch Empress Jia brutally killing the people of the imperial family just like Empress Lu of Shang did to the descendants of the Liu family, and remain indifferent? The reason why Emperor Wu established a large number of clans was because he was afraid that if the court was in trouble, the royal families of various places would be affected.
The vassal king can stand up and defend the royal family. At this moment, it is the time of great disaster for the Huangfu family. Look how many vassal kings of the Huangfu family have been harmed by Queen Jia? In the past, it was King Runan, King Chu, and now it is
Prince. Who will he be in the future? Have King Runan, King Chu and the prince ever been domineering or disobeying the law? Your Highness, as a person like Queen Jia, if you protect yourself wisely, you will not be able to protect yourself and your family, but you will suffer a serious disaster.
.The current plan is that only if everyone unites, under the banner of revenge for the prince, enters the palace, and eliminates the tyrannical Empress Jia, can the Jin Dynasty get back on track, and the princes of the Huangfu family can feel at ease again.
Now that we have said this, we still hope to find out what His Highness’s plans are!”
"You are such an eloquent person, aren't you afraid that I will report your words to the emperor and the court?"
"It's not a big deal if I, Zhang Lin, die. I'm afraid that the Huangfu family will suffer such a catastrophe, but no one dares to come forward."
"Hmph, you said that if King Zhao wants to do this, do you have anything to rely on?"
"His Royal Highness the King of Qi is wrong. Did Jiangguan have something to rely on for his actions in the past? When Jianghou joined the Northern Army alone, he asked the officers and men whether they were Liu's family or Lu's family. All the officers and soldiers were Liu's family, so they executed all Lu.
Your Highness now has an army in his hands, and as a member of the clan, is he not as good as a Jianghou?"
"Then what is King Zhao's plan to attack the empresses Lu?"
"In order to welcome the emperor, I will establish the son of the deceased prince as the grandson of the emperor. King Zhao sincerely invites you to help the government together according to the story of Emperor Xuan and Emperor Wen assisting the Wei Dynasty." Zhang Lin said loudly without any hesitation.
After hearing Zhang Lin's words, Huangfu Yan touched his chin with his right hand, pondered for a moment, and stood up suddenly: "Okay. As a member of the Jin Dynasty clan, and Empress Jia's behavior is like this, I naturally can't stand by and watch. Today I will give Zhang Changshi a high-five.
As I swear, we will send troops together tomorrow to attack the Jia family."
After the two high-fived each other in the fine pavilion, Zhang Lin left with a happy face.
After Huangfu Yan ordered his men to prepare for sending troops tomorrow, he suddenly thought of his father and the events between his father and Emperor Wu of Jin.
He remembered that when Emperor Wu of Jin sent his father back to the vassal state, his father was unwilling to do so. Many people in the Qi Palace did not understand. Many people thought that his father was afraid that after leaving Shangluo, he would never have the chance to inherit the throne.
It wasn't until his father became ill with worry and anger that he called his brothers to his bedside and said something. At that time, Huangfu Jon didn't understand what he said, but now he disagrees with it from the bottom of his heart.
"My father's illness seems to be incurable. A person's fate is destined by God. All mortals are destined to die, and my father cannot escape from it. You don't have to be too sad, and don't blame those imperial doctors, and don't blame your uncle.
This is my father's fate. My father and your uncle have had some disputes in recent years, not over the succession rights, but over the future direction of our Jin Dynasty. Your uncle has used Jia Chong, Xun Xu, and Feng Chen in these years.
These people are nothing more than insisting on reforming the policies adhered to by the founding of the Jin Dynasty, vigorously promoting poor families, and reducing the influence of high-ranking families in the court. What do you think?"
"The older your uncle gets, the more selfish he becomes!" After Qi Wang Huangfu You said these words in a more serious tone, his face flushed and he coughed violently again.
He coughed for a while, finally calmed down, and continued: "How did our world of Da Jin come about? We are different from Da Zhou. Da Zhou was when Emperor Wu of the Zhou Dynasty came to power at the end of the Shang Dynasty, and the world was in chaos.
He ordered the princes to learn the skills of Shen and Shang, combined Han and Bai's policies, and promoted talents. Only then did he finally pacify the northern princes and create the Great Zhou Dynasty. Most of the ministers of the Great Zhou Dynasty were heroes who followed Emperor Wu of Zhou to conquer the world, and our Great Zhou Dynasty
Jin is not."
"I, Emperor Xuan of the Great Jin Dynasty, started assisting Emperor Wu of the Zhou Dynasty, and assisted the four emperors of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Although they have outstanding achievements and great reputations, they are all ministers of the Great Zhou Dynasty. It was only because of the quarrel between the brothers of the Sima family of the Great Zhou Dynasty that their own people
Their eccentricity almost caused chaos in the world. The monks in the world were worried that if the Sima family were allowed to continue to be in power, the world would one day ignite war again because of the internal disputes between the Sima family. So they elected Emperor Jing to succeed Emperor Xuan and continue to serve as emperor.
The Great Zhou Dynasty was in power."
"The position of our Huangfu family was jointly recommended by all the monks in the world!" When Qi Wang Huangfu You said this, his eyes suddenly lit up and his face became extremely serious, "You brothers must keep this in mind.
at this point!"
After saying this, Qi Wang Huangfu You seemed to have been drained of all his strength, and his expression became sluggish again. When he spoke again, he no longer had the same intensity as before, "But your uncle seems to have forgotten this and us in the past few years.
How did the position of the Huangfu family come about? My father is not greedy for the prosperity of Shangluo, nor is he greedy for the supreme position. My father is afraid that our Jin Dynasty will embark on a road of no return in the future."
"Whether it is a monk from a poor family or a monk from a high family, they are not naturally opposed to each other. Before Emperor Xuan, do you think our Huangfu family was a high family or a poor family? Before Emperor Xuan, our family was also a poor family. The Sima family of the Great Zhou Dynasty
Before Emperor Wu of Zhou, who was from a high family or a poor family? He was not considered a high family. My father usually admired Yin Gong and Kong Shengren the most. My father always thought, if Yin Gong and Kong Shengren were alive today, what would they design?
This kind of system can adapt to the changes of the times. My father's talent is limited, and the more he studies the books of Confucius, the more he feels that the mountains are high and the scenery is still, the more he is afraid. He is afraid that the nine-level Zhongzheng system of the Jin Dynasty is not perfect.
, it still needs to be improved. How to change it? My father still has no idea. But my father knows in his heart that no matter how he changes it, he can't do it like your uncle did in recent years by promoting poor families to fight against high families. There is never such a thing in the book of Confucius.
He said that we should govern the country and stabilize the people by letting different groups of people within the country confront each other. This is not to stabilize the people, this is toying with the people! This is toying with the people!"
"The people are not stupid." King Huangfu You of Qi said sadly: "In the end, the monks from high families will definitely be full of resentment, and the monks from poor families will also be full of resentment. Again, our Huangfu family, we are the Jin Dynasty
We are where we are today because the monks all over the world have pushed us to this position. The only thing we can rely on is not power, balance, or imperial skills. The only thing we can rely on is the hearts of the people in the world."
"Your uncle is wrong. Your uncle is afraid that one day in the future, if a family like our Huangfu family appears again, this supreme position will be ceded to the other party. This is your uncle's mind, this is his selfishness, he
It completely betrayed the concept that he insisted on that the world belongs to everyone. Originally, your father's plan was to wait for your uncle to succeed a hundred years later, and the prince would succeed. With the prince's character, let his father do what Yin Gong did in the past, and restore order to chaos. The monk cannot
We divide the families into high-ranking families and poor families, with the capable ones at the top and the stupid ones at the bottom. Even if one day, a Jie and Zhou king appears in our imperial family, and another family has its destiny to belong to it and gets the support of monks from all over the world, then our family should be ceded to others. This is the case.
, although our Huangfu family cannot sit in this position forever, we can still maintain the prosperity of the family. You brothers must remember this sentence: The world belongs to the people of the world, and the world does not belong to our Huangfu family. Remember this!"
"Father," King Qi Huangfu looked at the starry night sky and murmured to himself, just like the King of Huainan over there, "this world belongs to our Huangfu family. That Queen Jia*
*At this point, except for the vassals of our Huangfu family, do those Jinyang Wang family, Hedong Pei family, Boling Cui family, etc., have ever stood up to point out what was wrong with Empress Jia? When Empress Jia killed the prince, how could they
Is there anyone who can argue with reason? Can any of those nine ministers risk their lives to defend the prince? If they are like those ministers before, how can empress Jia do this? The monks in this world are all wise and protective people.
They are all selfish people. If there is a problem in this world, it is up to us, the Huangfu family, to solve it!"
It’s another early morning. Another early morning.
Year after year, day after day, the great city of Shangluo has been standing on the bank of Luoshui River for thousands of years. It has always been here, witnessing the rise and fall of many dynasties, and the joys and sorrows of countless people. It has always been here.
It has always been the center of Middle-earth, and it has always been the core of the dynasty.
As the saying goes: In ancient times, fame and fortune were all found in Shangluo City.
In the 16th year after the founding of the Shang Dynasty, Emperor Wu of the Zhou Dynasty quelled the separatist forces that had been entrenched in Xiliang for more than 20 years. The entire North has almost never experienced any major wars. Even if there are some sporadic battles, most of them occurred in
The border area is thousands of miles away from Shangluo, the core of Central China.
In the past few years, the crusade against Yang Jun and the execution of King Runan and King Chu were all issued with a single edict, and then dozens of monks died at most, which was a major event. Regarding these major events in the past few years, people in Shangluo mentioned it
It's not fear, but excitement. The years of peace and prosperity, the years of drunkenness and extravagance, have made the people of Shangluo forget the horror of war, and instead miss the excitement of fighting and iron horses.
There are never any secrets in Shangluo. The death of commoner Huang Fuyu spread completely in Shangluo immediately. Regarding this explosive news, almost all the people in Shangluo were arguing with each other with extremely high emotions.
Some people are regretful, some are excited, some are disappointed, some are yelling, some are marveling, and some are bragging about the ethereal and miraculous things. All kinds of things in the world, which have been repeated countless times in Shangluo, are once again happening in Shangluo.
In this early morning, when the sun has not yet emerged, countless people who got up early are busy with their work while continuing the topic that they did not finish last night.
Guo Mo is one of the countless bragging people in Shangluo City.
At this moment, he was standing on the high Shangluo city wall, with his back against the female wall. He was not wearing any armor. The long knife he carried was hung loosely on his waist, and he was arguing with a group of similarly dressed city gate soldiers.
"Hey, have you heard about it? A fellow countryman of one of my cousin's officers was on duty in the palace. He said that there was a man who was so powerful yesterday that he killed seven people in and out of the palace, including two princes and
Even Mr. Zhang can't defeat him. Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, such a person, but I don't know which senior sect's senior master." A tall and thin soldier boasted with spittle flying around.
"Ah! Just blow the bamboo pole. What kind of people are these two princes? As long as they take action, good guys, it is said that the color of the world will change, and no one can resist it." Saying this, this big and round-waisted man
Han lowered his voice, covering half of his face with one hand and whispered, "Why do you think that guy was able to kill seven in and seven out? Prince Wang and Mr. Zhang didn't take any action at all."
"Then why don't you take action?" The tall and thin man heard this purely from hearsay. When he heard such an 'inside story', he immediately came over and said with a flattering smile, "Brother, stop being so secretive and tell the brothers quickly.
"
"I heard what one of my uncle's brothers said, and it's absolutely true." The strong man looked like a tall and thick man, but now he looked like a woman gossiping behind his back. He said mysteriously, "That guy is actually Empress Jia.
My lover was knocked out by the tiger in the palace, and I had no choice but to kill him and leave the palace. How could the three princes of the imperial court take action against such a person? I was afraid of dirtying my hands. "
"Tsk, tsk, tsk," when the tall and thin man nicknamed Zhugan heard this, his face was full of envy, "I wonder if that guy is handsome, or if he is living a good life? How come I, Hou San, am not so lucky?
Why can’t I meet those maids who leave the palace privately to find young men?”
When the strong man heard this, he slapped Hou San on the back of the head and cursed with a smile: "You have a body like yours, don't get fucked dry! My brother said that guy looked like a donkey."
Generally speaking, it is really powerful. Otherwise, how could Empress Jia regard it as a treasure and hide it in the harem."
