Winter in Yi Kingdom came very early this year, with a howling cold wind and a howling snowstorm. The Liguo army waited for the opportunity and quietly entered Kyoto. It turned out that the attack on the northern border was just to delay the old King of Qin by attacking in the east and west. After all, the strongest fighting force in Yiguo was the Qin army. If he delayed it, he would be free to deal with Kyoto. Five The prince thought that he could successfully rebel by using Li Guo, but in fact, he was just used by Li Guo as a breakthrough to attack Yi State. At the same time, Li Guo also knew that the Yan State sent troops to support the prince, so instead of confronting him head-on, he chose to avoid the Yan State army first.
Although the Liguo army was very cautious, they still could not escape Li Xiao's defense. Judging from Li Xiao's many years of combat experience, the more extreme the weather, the less careless it is.
Liguo occupies a small area, and they will cause chaos on the border whenever they have the opportunity. They are a fighting nation. Whether they are the army or ordinary people, they are bullies who bully the weak. They never care about the life and death of others and only aim to expand the territory.
This time, Prime Minister Ji colluded with Li Guo because something fell into their hands. When Prime Minister Ji was young, he had a childhood sweetheart named Fu Wan. At that time, because of family opposition, the two had no choice but to separate. Now this person is the concubine of the Liguo Emperor. The two "encountered" each other by chance when Fu Wan returned to his hometown to visit relatives years ago. Naturally, they told each other that they were inseparable. When they were in love, they were caught by the waiter in the shop. In order to cover up this matter, Prime Minister Ji did not hesitate to kill people to silence him. Unexpectedly, the matter was discovered by General Li Guo who was escorting Fu Wan.
Seeing that things were getting bigger and bigger, in order to prevent anyone from discovering his affair with Fu Wan, Fu Wan had a special status now. Prime Minister Ji had no choice but to take the initiative to meet the Emperor of Li Guo, with the excuse that he was here to discuss cooperation with Li Guo. As long as Li Guo could help the fifth prince seize the throne, Yi Guo could send two cities to Li Guo as a thank you gift, and the two countries We can trade with each other in the future.
Emperor Li was naturally not that easy to deceive. He couldn't trust Prime Minister Ji. After all, this man was greedy for money and lustful. Although he was a little clever, he was still far from great wisdom. The reason why Prime Minister Ji became the Prime Minister of Yi State was because he was still somewhat talented when he was young. In addition, with the secret recommendation of Concubine Sun and the Five Princes Party, he has been able to hold the position of Prime Minister for so many years.
Over the years, the relationship between Prime Minister Ji and Concubine Sun has always been unclear. In order to gain Concubine Sun's trust, Prime Minister Ji has always obeyed the instructions of the fifth prince, hoping to become the Supreme Emperor in the future.
This time, it was Prime Minister Ji who suggested using Li Guo's power to rebel. Anyway, the emperor of Yi Kingdom likes the prince the most, and the future throne will naturally be passed on to the prince, so basically there is nothing wrong with other princes. If you still want to fight for it, why not rush over while the prince's foundation is unstable, and maybe you can get a good future.
The fifth prince was already very ambitious, but after listening to Prime Minister Ji's analysis, he began to feel restless without even realizing it. Furthermore, I heard that Li Guo was willing to help him seize his legitimate son, and the reward was two cities, which was no problem. Anyway, the country is not his own now. If he can exchange two cities for a throne, it will be worth it.
As everyone knows, all this is actually just a conspiracy of Liguo. Even Fu Wan's return to Yiguo to visit relatives was arranged in advance by the emperor of Liguo. After all, if you can get a few cities by abandoning a concubine with no background, it is considered a waste. Its used. If you're lucky, you might get something else.
