Chapter 249 Killing a King of Guangping Halfway
The wind was in the wind halfway up, Xin Xiran, who was cold and cold, shivered suddenly. He turned his eyes to Qiu Ji, who looked unaffected by the cold wind, and asked half suspiciously and curiously: "How do you want me to help you?"
Qiu Ji put down his wine glass and looked at Xin Xiran with a steady look. There was a bit of regret and remembrance in his eyes. As for regret and remembrance, Xin Xiran could see clearly. His heart softened slightly, and his thoughts drifted back many years ago.
When he was a child, he and Qiu Ji were truly close friends. They ate, slept, climbed trees, caught birds together, and talked about intimacy.
But when he was ten years old, Qiu Ji was twelve years old. The two of them had a relationship with each other and were as close as brothers. At that time, he regarded Qiu Ji as his biological brother, respected and loved him. In the face of his family's opposition, he did not agree. On the one hand, he did not understand the interests of the two families, and on the other hand, he felt that they had a good relationship, so why bother involved the family?
But Qiu Ji didn't think so. Qiu Ji had never seen him again since then, and he didn't even have a word of explanation, which made Xin Xiran feel like he was betrayed for the first time. Although he went to Qiu's mansion to find Qiu Ji several times later, he never saw him once and was refused to meet him.
He obviously liked to respect that person so much, but the man turned around and left, leaving him behind in the blink of an eye, making him feel that he was just like this in that person's heart. Xin Xiran held a grudge against Qiu Ji for a long time for this matter.
Later, when the two grew up, their grudges faded, but they had no intersection. But in the end, their childhood friendship was more innocent. Xin Xiran has always been a person who values friendship. Even if the relationship was broken, they still left a place for that friendship.
But he had never seen Qiu Ji have any regrets about that year, so he thought that Qiu Ji was a cold-blooded and ruthless person. He did not expect that seeing Qiu Ji like this at this time made him feel mixed.
Xin Xiran sighed slightly, picked up the wine glass and drank it all, but this time his tone changed, half helpless and half compromised, "Tell me, how do you want me to help you."
He would not ignore others' requests, not to mention that he was a good brother. Moreover, in the future, he would look up and see him in the academy. Why do he have to be so irresistible? He comforted himself like this.
Qiu Ji's eyes were serious: "I wonder if you heard that the young master of the Yi marching army had returned to Weizhou and had become a kinship with the pearl in the palm of King Guangping?"
Xin Xiran was asked inexplicably and shook his head. He had been in a daze during this period and almost died on the street. How could he know about this news? In fact, even if he lives a normal life, he would not hear this news on weekdays.
Qiu Ji seemed to have expected it, without any extra expression, but said patiently: "This news was deliberately spread by the Lord of the Yi marching Army.
Among the ten major vassal kings, King Guangping ranked fourth in influence. No matter his territory, military strength, or financial strength, he should not be underestimated. He made a family with Yi army, which was undoubtedly telling the world that King Guangping wanted to rebel openly."
Xin Xiran heard of King Guangping. When the late emperor was young, he conquered the world with the late emperor, and his achievements were no less than those of the Gongyu family. The late emperor even named him a prince of the other surname in middle age. Since ancient times, it has been not easy to be named a prince of the other surname. This shows that King Guangping has real skills.
If Yi March became a relative of King Guangping, it would undoubtedly be a great addition to the Yi March, because King Guangping was not only highly respected in the Guangping area, but also highly respected throughout Xiye Kingdom. With his support, Yi March, the unidentified wild soldiers, also had a status of justice and openness.
Moreover, the reputation of the Yi marching was very good among the people. Then came the help of a King of Guangping, who was respected by the people. At least on the people, the Yi marching achieved great success.
Xin Xiran quickly figured it out, but he was a little puzzled: "While the news of the Yi marching and the King of Guangping came out, the court would be more alert, but this matter did not seem to be a good thing for King of Guangping.
No matter what, the marching of the righteous army was also a rebellion. He raised the banner of rebellion so openly, wouldn’t he be afraid that the other nine vassal kings would jointly rebel against him?"
Qiu Ji smiled slightly, "Among the top ten vassal kings, in addition to King Guangping, there are three princes with other surnames.
Since ancient times, the status of princes of foreign surnames has been controversial. The royal family has a noble status and has always resisted foreign surnames. Therefore, in this regard, the four princes were naturally despised among other real royal princes.
Because of this, these four princes have a good relationship, and the foreign surname and royal relatives are the same dividing line."
"What you mean is that the other three princes want to rebel too? But even so, there are six princes left, and they are not weak in strength. If they join forces, the four princes of other surnames will not get any benefits."
They could have completely destroyed the four princes in one fell swoop by taking advantage of the rehabilitation.
Rebellion is not new these days. Since the late emperor's later years, the power of the court has been controlled by the Fu and Taiwei. There are many corrupt officials in the court, and they have been levied on taxes and construction for years. Officials from all over the country have been plundering people's wealth and ointment. When the people are forced to make an end, they will naturally gather up for uprising under the slogan of anti-corruption.
When the late emperor was still in power, these rebel troops were just small rivers, not many, nor strong, and the court could easily wipe them out.
But it is precisely because of this germination that more people have rebelled against each other. After the death of the late emperor, the young emperor ascended the throne. The internal affairs situation became more severe, and the rebel army became more frequent.
More than ten years ago, an uprising army named Yi Jun suddenly rose and fought against the imperial court for three years and won Weizhou, one of the five continents of Xiye Kingdom. Therefore, the battle became famous and became the most successful uprising force to date.
As the name of Yi marching was promoted, more and more uprising soldiers either rose up or joined Yi marching. In the following years, Yi marching has become an existence that can compete with the court for the world.
Xin Xiran can understand that King Guangping did not hide his ambitions, after all, people have no major resistance to rebellion.
But the other six princes, whose surname is Zhuang, also have a part of them in the world. How could they allow others to make trouble on their own heads? They must have to rise up against each other.
King Guangping seemed a little arrogant and arrogant in this move.
Qiu Ji knew what he thought and explained: "But the key is that among the remaining six princes, there is one, Lin'an, who has a good relationship with King Guangping in private."
"Turn against?" Xin Xiran didn't expect a better word for a moment, blurted out, and said in confusion: "He was Zhuang, why did he join forces with other surnames to beat his own people?"
