After reading the letter, Xuan Wei was a little hesitant.
Tang Yi reminded: "I heard that the royal family of Qi State was poisoned before. It was this Shao Liu'er who asked the ghost doctor disciples to take action, so that the poisoned royal family of Qi State escaped the disaster."
Xuan Wei: "Of course I know about this matter, and I may even know more details than you do about the Queen of England's begging. Just because I know... Mr. Wuxin may not take action again and again. If it doesn't work, Qingkong is in this situation.
The other side is even more helpless, and with all the time wasted going back and forth, can we still wait until he comes back alive?"
Tang Yi: "My husband, do you have any other choice?"
"Yes!" Xuan Wei looked up to the sky and sighed.
Tang Yi: "The person who gave the advice must be confident in his words. Otherwise, there would be no need to work on a dying person. It would be meaningless."
Xuan Wei turned around, suddenly grabbed Tang Yi's arm, and warned cautiously: "In the early years, many people advised me to ascend the throne. It is one thing that I don't want to usurp the throne, and the other is that I don't want to harm Qingkong. Once I come to power, the three major factions will
No Xia Qingkong, so this matter must not be known to the three major factions. Now that I am going to ascend the throne, the attention of the three major factions will be diverted, which is a good opportunity for Qingkong to escape. Sister, go to the State of Qi to meet the Emperor of Qi in person
, Shangqing Sect must help me deliver Qingkong safely."
Tang Yi cupped his hands and said: "The Shangqing Sect will do its best to live up to the trust entrusted to you!" Then he hesitated a little, "It's just that I speak lightly in front of Emperor Qi!"
Xuan Wei said nothing, turned around and walked quickly to the case, wrote a letter herself and gave it to Tang Yi to present to Emperor Qi Haoyun Tu...
The ceremony was solemn, and amid the sound of praise, Xuanwei, wearing royal robes, ascended the throne, accepted the worship of the ministers, and officially became the Empress of the Wei Kingdom, officially taking full charge of the power of the Wei Kingdom in the precarious situation.
The news of the Queen's ascension to the throne quickly spread to the entire Wei Kingdom, and countless people looked forward to her, hoping that she could turn the tide.
After receiving the notice, Xuan Chengtian, who was under house arrest in the cold palace, looked up to the sky and laughed wildly, "Xuanwei, bitch, your wolfish ambition has finally been exposed! Bitch, God will accept you..."
Various curses echoed in the cold palace, but no one paid attention.
After taking the throne, the three major factions of the Wei Kingdom discovered something was wrong and found that Ximen Qingkong was missing. Logically speaking, Tang Yi should have been with Xuan Wei after Ximen Qingkong was poisoned. However, Tang Yi also disappeared. The three major factions immediately investigated in detail, but they didn't know
When the two went there, they found that even some important officials of the Shangqing Sect were missing.
Three of the large manned birds in the palace were missing, and their whereabouts were unknown, so they asked Xuan Wei about it, but Xuan Wei was vague and refused to tell!
Under this situation, it was difficult for the three major factions to express their intention to kill Ximen Qingkong. Xuanwei refused to answer, and they had nothing to do with Xuanwei.
Important things happened one after another, and Ximen Qingkong's whereabouts were quickly forgotten by everyone.
News came from the State of Qin. Although the State of Qin did not directly send troops, it planned to take over Xiping Pass. The envoys came to clarify the interests of controlling Xiping Pass.
The key points it clarified were just like what Meng Shanming informed the Qin State, but they were not implemented in time according to Meng Shanming's reminders. It was delayed for a long time, and it felt like making up for the situation after a missed opportunity.
Qin's intention was to control Xipingguan first and prepare for the follow-up preparation of the army to enter Weiguo.
After discussion, the monarchs and ministers of Wei decided to hand over control of Xiping Pass to Qin in exchange for Qin sending troops.
It is not an easy decision to make. Whoever controls Xiping Pass will control the military passage of the seven eastern and western kingdoms. Once this control is handed over to the Qin State, it almost means that it will be lost forever. Even if the war subsides, the Qin State will
It may not be returned to Weiguo. How can you easily let go of the meat in your mouth unless you take it back by force?
However, the situation was such that Weiguo had to compromise.
Of course, it is not possible to hand it over now. Wei will not hand over Xiping Pass until the main force of Qin arrives at Xiping Pass. Otherwise, what is the point of Qin sending soldiers and generals to guard it? It will not be able to withstand Jin.
The attack will easily change hands.
Also, if it is not certain that Qin will send troops, Wei will not be able to hand it over. This may be the last retreat for some people on the Wei side. Once defeated, they may have to withdraw from Xipingguan into the territory of the Eastern Four Kingdoms.
Regardless of whether the Qin State is willing to allow the Wei State troops to enter the country, the Wei State's defeated army will have to retreat from Xiping Pass. It is unrealistic for a large number of defeated troops to take the sea route.
Faced with Wei's attitude, Qin's envoys had no choice but to truthfully reply to the Qin court...
In the territory of Qin State, General Tian Zhengyang personally led the army to Xipingguan.
The reason why he was willing to send troops was that he was forced to do nothing by Xuan Wei.
As soon as Xuan Wei took action, the Qin State was still dragging its feet at first, but later it was discovered that something was wrong. The food supply of the entire Qin State suddenly became tense. It is too late to start farming now. Let’s not talk about whether it is still early for farming and harvesting.
If you have time, first of all, if the people don't suffer, you won't be able to farm if you ask them to do so.
If you can earn more by selling your physical strength and doing some craft work and can better fill your stomach, why farm?
Only then did Qin realize that Wei had already dug a hole for Qin. In the early years, he thought that Wei sold grain at a low price in order to make good friends with Qin. Now he understands that this is not the case.
By subduing its troops without fighting, Wei had already secretly strangled Qin's neck with an invisible big hand and could influence Qin's situation at any time.
If we don't send troops to join the war to aid the defense, let alone Qin State, which will soon be in chaos due to widespread famine. Once Jin State controls Xiping Pass, we can't even expect Jin State to show its favor. Jin State is afraid that it will sit back and watch Qin State's chaos, so that it can easily send troops.
Sweep.
After reacting, Yu Cang's face turned dark, and he realized that they, the people who had just established a new country, were still too young.
Realizing that a huge crisis was approaching, the two generals Tian Zhengyang and Ma Changan did not dare to argue anymore. There were no eggs left in the nest, and Yu Cang would not allow them to continue arguing!
As the troops were dispatched, the mobilization of men and horses, and the deployment of various combat supplies suddenly became rapid.
On the one hand, they urgently implemented policies to force the people to resume farming on a large scale. Although they knew it was too late, it was impossible not to do it.
…
"My eldest son, the Qin State has sent out troops!" In the tunnel, Shao Sansheng rushed to the stone chamber to report the news.
"What?" Shao Pingbo, who was sitting indoors checking all kinds of intelligence, stood up in shock and asked urgently: "Did the imperial court not spread rumors in Jin according to my arrangements?"
Shao Sansheng: "It was spread, but the rumor didn't work. Weiguo took action!"
Shao Pingbo hurriedly took the news and checked it. It detailed the news sent back by Qin's spies, and described the dilemma Qin faced after Wei suddenly tightened the rope.
After reading the news, Shao Pingbo quickly turned around and looked at the map. He first found the approximate location where Yin Chu's army would arrive, and then found the approximate location where Tian Zhengyang's army would arrive. His fingers tapped lightly on the Xiping Pass.
His eyes flickered, and after staring for a long time, he slowly said: "The loud sound is loud, the elephant is invisible. At first, I thought that Wei Guo wanted to make good friends with the Qin State behind him, in order to avoid being attacked from both sides. I didn't expect that he could be so capable.
It is indeed not easy to have been in charge of Weiguo for many years, I underestimated Xuan Wei."
He tapped Xiping Pass with his fingers, "Fortunately, we had planned ahead. It's too late for the Qin State to react now. The main force of the Qin State rushed to Xiping Pass farther than Yin Chu's army, but the Qin State was in its own country.
Marching within the territory, there are no obstacles during the march, and we have an absolute advantage. Our Jin State is now intervening on two fronts and is unable to send more forces to interfere with the Qin Army!"
"The bigger trouble is the impact on people's hearts. As soon as the news of Qin's dispatch of troops comes out, it is easy for Yin Chu's forces on the eastward route to waver. Once the speed of Yin Chu's army is slowed down, he may not be able to catch up with the main force of Qin's army.
Take control of Xipingguan and capture it!"
"Send a message to the imperial court and send people to Qin to negotiate with Qin. Regardless of whether Qin agrees or not, as long as it can delay the Qin army from occupying Xipingguan, no matter what the conditions are, we will agree first."
"Send a message to Heishuitai to strengthen the intervention against Yin Shu's forces along the eastward march route. Now our Jin army's offensive is in full swing. If anyone wavers, we can directly use coercion, inducement, or intimidation! Xipingguan is a chokepoint and must not
If there is a mistake, we must ensure that Yin Chu’s army can pass smoothly, and we must ensure that Yin Chu reaches Xipingguan before Tian Zhengyang!”
"Inform your Majesty and send someone to secretly contact the guard of Xiping Pass, promising to bribe him with huge profits..."
Shao Sansheng interjected, "The approach of Tian Zhengyang's army will undoubtedly increase the confidence of the defender of Xiping Pass. If he knew that our Jin army could not conquer it, and if he knew that the Qin army would send troops, the Jin army would be at a disadvantage. The defender may not be able to easily
Be bribed."
Shao Pingbo: "This is exactly the purpose of sending the message to His Majesty. I'm afraid that the general will defend if he learns of the arrival of the Qin army. We must not let the general of Xiping Pass defend until Tian Zhengyang's army arrives. Before Tian Zhengyang arrives, we must let Yin Chu capture it first."
Xipingguan.”
"I would like to inform your majesty that when you send a lobbyist to contact the garrison of Xiping Pass, you must ask the other party: after the garrison gave up Xiping Pass and handed it over to the Qin army, can it be regarded as a great achievement? Where will it go in the future? At the same time, your majesty will ask you to give the final report to the Qin army.
The beloved seventh princess sent it as a gift to the general at Xiping Gate to consummate the marriage first, and the wedding can be arranged later."
"By marrying His Majesty's favorite seventh princess, the guard no longer has any worries. Even if the Jin offensive is defeated, he will have an amulet when he comes to Jin, and he will have no shortage of glory and wealth. This will reassure him and encourage the guards at Xiping Pass.
I will make a painful decision!"
Shao Sansheng looked twitching and said: "The seventh princess is the jewel in your majesty's eye. Will the eldest son propose this strategy to annoy your majesty?"
Shao Pingbo: "I'm just giving advice, it's never your Majesty's business. The matter has come to this. I believe that Your Majesty will not be disturbed by the love of his children and will make a wise choice!"
…
Three manned birds fell from the sky and landed outside a Chinese military tent where the Qi army was temporarily stationed for rest. Bu Xun, the general manager of the Imperial Palace, came personally.
Inside the Chinese military tent, Huyan Wuhen, wearing a battle armor, strode out and greeted him personally, cupping his hands and saying, "General Manager Bu!"
"I've met the handsome man!" Bu Xunke saluted politely.
Huyan Wuhen waved his hand and asked him to sit in the tent. Bu Xun waved his hand and refused, "I have to rush back to the capital. The commander-in-chief has a mighty appearance. Can you accompany me for a while?"
Huyan Wuhen's eyes flashed slightly, knowing that this Li Jing would not come out to play. It should be the emperor's intention to come here in person. He probably came on behalf of the emperor. He should have something to say. In all likelihood, it would be normal.
Regarding the matter of rebellion, I immediately reached out my hand and said, "Please!"
