Facing a common enemy, the Empress Dowager and the Emperor of Northern Qi did not stop fighting, but they joined forces with a tacit understanding.
Despite his busy schedule, the Emperor of Northern Qi still did not forget to give orders to his people, asking them to get closer to Qin Jiyan. He was provocative in his words. It was best to let the agitated Qin Jiyan take action and take the opportunity to see if Qin Jiyan was injured.
.
The Empress Dowager of the Northern Qi Dynasty issued an order to the officials along the road, asking them to treat Qin Jiyan "ceremoniously" and warmly. It would be best if something unexpected happened during the reception, so as to take the opportunity to explore Qin Jiyan's injuries.
If Qin Jiyan was injured, they would definitely change their plan and pursue Qin Jiyan and his party fiercely, without giving Qin Jiyan a chance to recover from his injuries. If he was not injured, they would proceed to Zhilingchuan as planned.
As a result, the road ahead was very lively. The soldiers of the Northern Qi Dynasty provoked from time to time. In just three days, there were more than a dozen fights with the Feng family generals. Each of them won or lost, but Qin Jiyan was not provoked to take action.
"Is this king that naive?" Qin Jiyan said with a mocking look on his face after discovering the purpose of the Northern Qi people.
Although he is young, he has long passed the age of being passionate and aggressive. The Emperor of Northern Qi's tactics did not work on him. As for the warm reception of officials from various places?
Qin Jiyan even dared to brush off the reputation of the Queen Mother and the Regent of the Northern Qi Dynasty, so what did the local officials matter? Facing the cold face of His Highness the King of Qin, could these people become enthusiastic?
Along the way, Qin Jiyan accepted the hospitality offered by Northern Qi officials and walked in front of others as if nothing had happened. As for inviting wine and beauties?
His Highness the King of Qin ignored them all, and kicked the beauties in front of him. The strength was definitely not like that of an injured person. To persuade him to drink? His Highness Qin only drank the wine he wanted to drink. He did not pay attention to any toasts or fine wines.
.
"The King of Qin in the Great Qin Dynasty did not have access to oil or salt."
Officials along the way racked their brains, trying to figure out whether there were assassins on the way; people around him accidentally pounced on His Highness Qin; beams suddenly broke and houses collapsed; but they could not find out whether His Highness Qin was not injured.
His Highness Qin is very skilled, but the person they arranged cannot get close to the King of Qin. How can he check?
News along the way reached the ears of the Queen Mother and the Emperor one by one, and at this time the internal fighting between them came to an end.
When the regent was in trouble, Hu Yanqianting successfully broke into the imperial court, led troops into the city, escorted King Qin, and welcomed the emperor to take charge. Marshal Cheng's son rushed to the imperial court with troops in time to provide another boost to the emperor.
With the support of soldiers and horses, the emperor was more confident. Although the Queen Mother's men and horses also arrived one after another, they were always a step late. Coupled with the repeated attacks of brain disease, the Queen Mother was tortured and could not sleep day and night. She often made sudden decisions when making decisions.
He was furious and made all the civil and military officials very dissatisfied.
Mainly, there were not many close followers of the Queen Mother among the hundreds of officials, most of them had been killed by Qin Jiyan, leaving the court empty. The Queen Mother's orders were often perfunctory, and the Queen Mother was not allowed to make any retreat.
The emperor's power was justified, but under the pressure of the emperor and officials, the queen mother had to return power to the emperor and retreated to Beiyuan with Wu Yuzhi.
The Queen Mother retired, and the chaos in the imperial court came to an end, but everyone knew that the Queen Mother had no intention of giving up, because before the Queen Mother retired, she forced the Emperor to recognize Wu Yuzhi's identity, and Wu Yuzhi became the son of the Queen Mother and the late Emperor.
He became the emperor's brother.
The Queen Mother still has military power in her hands. These military powers are the life-saving talisman of the Queen Mother and Wu Yuzhi, and they are also the capital for their success. With the military power in hand, the Queen Mother's status is still aloof. The emperor cannot beat the Queen Mother to death with a stick, he can only try to do it slowly.
.
The results of the tests by officials from various places were immediately presented to the emperor's case, leaving the Northern Qi Emperor in a dilemma. He could not make up his mind for a while, but the Queen Mother, who had retired to Beiyuan, had the same news in her hands.
The Queen Mother apparently retired, but in fact she still had the ability to control the state affairs of Northern Qi. She had been in charge of Northern Qi for fifteen years, and she had already placed confidants in various places. If she hadn't had frequent brain attacks, she would never have let go so easily.
"Wu Yuzhi, come and see what we are going to do about this matter." The Queen Mother began to train Wu Yuzhi on these matters.
"Queen Mother, let me go. These people are of too low status and cannot get close to King Qin. It will be different if I go." Wu Yuzhi's eyes were dancing with fire, obviously remembering the shame of being taken as a hostage by Qin Jiyan.
"Wu Yuzhi, the Queen Mother knows what you are thinking, but there is no need to take risks on these small things. You have to learn to control them." Showing off one's strength and bravery is never what the master needs to do. The Queen Mother patiently taught Wu Yuzhi and let him understand.
What is Jun?
The more she spent time with Wu Yuzhi, the more the Empress Dowager of the Northern Qi Dynasty hated the Princess Regent. That woman was so abominable.
The person she taught was calm, dignified, and well-mannered on the surface, but once you get along with him, you will find that all of this is an illusion.
Wu Yuzhi is arrogant and arrogant. Whenever he is self-centered, everyone must listen to him. He is exaggerated and impatient. Once he encounters a setback, he will lose his sense of proportion. He is not sure to accept failure and will always find reasons for his own failure.
Reason, putting the responsibility on others, not taking responsibility.
Facing the Queen Mother's teachings, Wu Yuzhi listened respectfully, but in fact he didn't take it seriously and didn't take the Queen Mother's words to heart at all.
The Queen Mother of the Northern Qi Dynasty arranged manpower at Zhilingchuan. The original plan was to attack Qin Jiyan when they got there, but now that the news of Qin Jiyan's injury was uncertain, the Queen Mother did not want to miss such a good opportunity and planned to take action in advance.
You know, the longer the delay is, the more time Qin Jiyan will have to recover from his injuries, and what the Queen Mother has to do now is not to give Qin Jiyan time to breathe.
However, the Queen Mother did not take action herself. Instead, she revealed the news to the emperor without leaving any trace, and asked the emperor to arrange people to intercept and kill Qin Jiyan along the way. Zhi Lingchuan's plan remained as usual.
Regardless of whether Qin Jiyan was injured or not, there was nothing wrong with not giving him time to breathe. The emperor was very satisfied with the plan. At this time, Zino also had people make explosive packets and presented more than a hundred to the emperor for inspection.
The emperor ordered people to light more than ten of them in an open place at one go. A booming explosion sounded. Although a palace was not blown up in one fell swoop, the lethality was astonishing. The scarecrows they had placed around the explosion were blown up continuously.
There was no residue left, and a big hole was blasted in the ground.
"Okay, okay, good stuff." The Emperor of Northern Qi was very satisfied, and immediately asked Zino to speed up and make thousands of them. "I want King Qin to suffer the consequences, so I will use the weapons made by his men to kill him in Northern Qi."
he."
The Emperor of the Northern Qi Dynasty had piercing eyes. At this time, he no longer looked weak and cold as usual, but only had the ambition and domineering power of an emperor.
After seeing him, Zino smiled unconsciously: After the emperor took the power, he became more regal. If he could keep it up, it would probably take a long time for the civil strife in Northern Qi to end.
Zino took the order and stepped back, then turned around and sent the news to Qin Jiyan that the Emperor of Northern Qi had trial-produced explosives and wanted to use them on Qin Jiyan...
