Chapter 250: I'm almost dying
Xin Xiran had not known the affairs of the top ten vassal kings very much before, and he only knew that there was such an existence, but he didn't know the relationship there was at all.
He said in surprise: "Since he is also surnamed Zhuang, why should he fight against his own people with outsiders?"
Qiu Ji drank the wine in the glass in one go, and Fumimi quickly poured him another glass. His slender fingers stroked the edge of the glass and said slowly: "The relationship between China and China is complicated, and I only know one thing. I heard that it was for a woman that caused the Lin'an King to hate the man surnamed Zhuang.
However, the Lin'an King did not make any statement before. Do you know that half a month ago, the Huiyang Banquet of the Ten Majors?"
Xin Xiran smiled at first. The King of Lin'an was all surnamed Zhuang and hated the people surnamed Zhuang. Then he would hate him even himself. He heard Qiu Ji ask him, and he continued to shake his head. At that time, he had completely forgotten why Qiu Ji found him. Instead, he seemed to be listening to a story. He had never heard of these shocking and incredible news.
But Qiu Ji knew all this news, and he suddenly felt that the latter was not an ordinary person. Although Qiu Ji had never acted ordinary, he always thought that there was no difference between him and Qiu Ji except that he was not as smart as him.
But when they met today, after they talked like this, his view of Qiu Ji was immediately overturned. He could not even match half of Qiu Ji. He even felt that he had never known this person before.
Yes, how do you understand? I didn't say a word, it was worse than a stranger. How do you understand. I felt that I was a child who had not grown up in front of Qiu Ji, but Qiu Ji was already a big shot who could stand alone.
"The banquet in Huiyang is when the Yi army spread the news of marriage, the six vassal kings discussed in private and arranged for several other princes from other surnames to go to the Hongmen Banquet in Huiyang."
How thrilling was this Hongmen Banquet? Needless to say, Xin Xiran could have imagined that they must have brought a large number of troops to confront each other at a table banquet, and even fought and blood flowed into a river.
The Ten Wei vassal kings, this scene should not be underestimated. Since it was a Hongmen Banquet, who would really go alone? That day would be a bleak state of red eyes.
He nodded in understanding and expressed his understanding, but Qiu Ji shook his head instead, "However, this Hongmen Banquet did not really start to fight, and the key lies in the King of Lin'an.
The Lin'an Prince originally discussed with the other five princes to siege and kill King Guangping and his party at the banquet, but the five princes did not expect that King Lin'an had already turned against each other. Not only did they secretly communicate the news to King Guangping, but they even raised their swords to aim at the other five princes at the banquet.
The five princes were caught off guard, and their troops were already informed by King Lin'an to King Guangping. If they could not be surrounded and killed, they would become the point of others' swords and there was no room for resistance."
Xin Xiran was shocked when he heard this. Although he had not seen that scene, he could imagine that it must be very intense. "Since the five princes were suppressed, why didn't King Guangping take this opportunity to kill them all? Isn't it----"
If he was killed, he would have heard of such a big news, and there would have been a stir in the capital. He was still wandering in the capital a few days ago, but he had never heard of such news.
After Xin Xiran finished speaking, she realized that she was not right. She asked this and felt as if she was hoping someone would rebel. He quickly added: "According to the situation at that time, King Guangping should be sure to win. What happened later?"
Qiu Ji did not explain first this time, but asked him: "If you are King Guangping, what should you do with these five people?"
Xin Xiran was stunned when asked, then couldn't help but think. If he had asked him to answer without thinking, he would definitely say that he would kill him directly, kill him, and deal with the five vassal kings at once. This is great news for the Yi marching army.
But Qiu Ji asked him so seriously, and he thought for a moment. The ten vassal kings were in their respective territories and had great influence. They had their own fiefs, troops, and supporters. Moreover, these five were royal relatives. If they were killed by a prince of another surname, it would be tantamount to----
He suddenly stood upright with fur when he was shocked, "If he killed it, it would be like declaring war on the court. The five princes were all royal relatives. Once they were killed, the biggest bloody battle would be initiated."
Qiu Ji smiled and nodded, "No matter whether it is the current state of the court or the current forces of the marching of the charity, they are not enough to bear the greatest bloody battle. This battle lasts at least five or six years, or at most ten years. At that time, the creatures will suffer, and the people will suffer------"
In fact, it is not only the common people, but also great damage to the court and the marching of the righteous. Therefore, before the bloody battle, they must be prepared until this protracted war can be started.
Xin Xiran was still waiting for him to continue talking. After waiting for a while, Qiu Ji couldn't help but look at the latter. Qiu Ji continued: "So, the spread of news from the marches of the monarchy was the lead, but the banquet of Huiyang of the top ten princes was the fuse. The court already knew the attitude of the five Kings of Guangling, and knew that once the Kings of Guangling and the others turned against each other, the court would face a larger hostile force, so naturally some people would propose to recruit soldiers.
But once soldiers are recruited, the taxes and labor of the people will definitely increase. By then, before the war begins, the people will suffer all their hardships first. However, this war cannot be fought for a while." Before the war is fought, the people will suffer first. During the war, the people will still suffer. After all, the most painful thing is the people.
Xin Xiran couldn't help but say wonder: "Why can't you fight? Since the five princes have determined their position and the marching of the righteous army has received such great help, they are almost equally confronting the court. What are they waiting for if they want to seize power?
Isn’t this a good time for each other to recruit troops and accumulate strength? Even the marching army can take advantage of the injection of new forces to speed up the attack and occupy surrounding territories.
Qiu Ji smiled and said inexplicably: "Although it seems that the Yi marching has received the support of five princes, the premise is that King Guangling and the Yi marching Lord have become relatives.
After all, King Guangling was not a marching army. He inserted halfway through. He had to make plans for his future. If he could not become a relative of the marching lord of the marching army who might become the royal family in the future, he would not have guaranteed it.
Therefore, this union depends on whether the marriage can be concluded."
Xin Xiran saw Qiu Ji's smile as if he was very clear. He felt even more uncomfortable. Why did he act like a fool after this conversation, but he seemed to have everything in his hands.
The so-called friends actually have a very delicate relationship. When the other party is better, you are happy and unhappy, because it is easy to make comparisons. Once you are worse than the other party, and with the close relationship, your mood will become more complicated and sad.
Just as he is now, Qiu Ji is well-known, but he doesn't know after asking. It's obvious that the two were so good when they were young, why is the gap so big?
