Chapter 333: Sadomasochism (Thirty-Eight)
After resting in Xizhou for half a month, news arrived from the capital.
Those who deserve commendation should be rewarded, and those who deserve compensation should be compensated.
The families of the Nth generation also sent their trusted men to rush to Xizhou day and night.
They either persuaded or begged, just hoping that their young men and women could return to Beijing.
When the N generation sees people they are close to, they have a way to vent their inner grievances, anxiety, fear and other negative emotions.
They were either sobbing or wailing, venting their emotions to their heart's content.
...These were all within Gu Qingcheng's expectations.
However, to Gu Qingcheng's surprise, after venting their anger, the group of N generations did not all give up.
Some people left, but half of them insisted on staying, including two little girls.
"Cui Si died in battle. She was a bookworm but she was so brave. Am I, the daughter of a military hero, not as good as her?"
"Yes! I want to be a majestic female general like Huo Wu!"
The two young ladies were extremely persistent, and it was of no use even though their family's confidants tried to persuade them.
Finally had to give up.
However, these people did not leave, but stayed with their little girl.
If you can't take it away, then leave it behind to protect it. This is the biggest concession that the husband and wife in the family can make.
The two young ladies: ...It doesn't matter! As long as we are not deserters, more people means more help.
Seeing this, Gu Qingcheng couldn't tell whether she was moved or relieved.
Huoshui couldn't help but complain: "I think you are so proud! With the hostage in your hand, someone will speak for you in the court!"
"In the future, even if you poke a hole in the sky in North City, there will be someone to clean up your mess!"
Gu Qingcheng was too lazy to pay attention to the little idiot, not to mention that it, it was right!
She brought the N generations out with great selfish motives.
The N generations are her capital and the foundation for the future.
Forget about "hostage" or something like that; it sounds too harsh and makes her seem too utilitarian.
Huoshui picks his nose: ...You still care about your reputation? How fresh! "If you keep talking nonsense, I'll put you in the dark room!"
Gu Qingcheng directly issued a threat.
"Oh! Don't!"
It wasn't that Huoshui was afraid, but it had accumulated a lot of gossip and was sharing it with Gu Qingcheng.
But it just can't control its mouth and always wants to complain.
We haven’t talked about the serious matter yet, and you can’t be locked up in a small dark room.
"Your Majesty, do you know what the progress bar next door is at?"
Huoshui didn't waste any more words and directly changed the subject.
"?" Gu Qingcheng was stunned for a moment, then she realized that Huoshui must have gone to Fengchao to watch the show again.
"What? Chu Zhao used his ultimate move again?"
Gu Qingcheng made a random guess.
You know what, it rhymes quite well.
At least this sentence hit Huo Shui's funny spot: "Haha! Chu Zhao uses a big move! Hahaha! Your Majesty, if you want to be weird, you're the one!"
Deep in the sea of consciousness, a virtual thumbs-up was raised, "A real Onmyoji!"
Gu Qingcheng's forehead twitched, "Do you know a famous scenic spot in Sichuan and Chongqing?"
Troublemaker: ...I am Shu Daoshan?
Okay, I know, I know! He didn’t dare to play tricks anymore and quickly said, “Yes! Chu Zhao used his ultimate move!”
"With the help of Lu Yan, she instigated the princes to launch a war to seize the throne."
"The eldest prince plotted treason, the second prince was sentenced to death by a forged imperial edict, and the third prince was injured and became disabled..."
"After Chu Zhao's actions, the Feng Dynasty, which once had many descendants, now only has a few young princes left."
"Ahem, Emperor Feng was poisoned. Guess who did it?"
As he was talking, Huoshui still didn't learn his lesson and couldn't help but keep the secret.
Gu Qingcheng took a breath, "Chu Zhao!"
Is there any need to guess?
The lice on a bald man's head are obvious.
"Then do you know how Chu Zhao convinced himself to poison his own father?"
The root cause of the disaster is actually this issue.
Because it felt that with a normal person's thinking process, it would be impossible to guess Chu Zhao's strange reason.
For example, a big shot in the government like Her Majesty the Queen Mother wants to poison the emperor and his father, basically for power.
Just throw out a banner of "serving the country and the people", try to stand on the side of justice, and give yourself a fig leaf.
And Chu Zhao——
"Well, let me guess! Chu Zhao must have felt that Emperor Feng was too fickle and had failed his mother's love."
Gu Qingcheng thought about it and gave an answer.
Huoshui: ...Fuck! You can guess this right? Gu Qingcheng rolled her eyes, "Chu Zhao is a love-brained person. Her life is only about love and love."
Even something as serious as treason, she would link it to love.
The troublemaker fell to the ground with a thud, prostrating himself in submission.
Gu Qingcheng was too lazy to watch it fooling around, and urged, "Continue!"
Huoshui heard the impatience in Gu Qingcheng's words and said quickly, "Emperor Feng is already dying, so Chu Zhao suggested that Emperor Feng appoint his three-year-old younger brother as the crown prince."
"Lu Yan and his confidants are the ministers of state."
"Oh, by the way, Chu Zhao also persuaded Emperor Feng to give her the title of Princess Auxiliary to the State, to check and balance the ministers of state."
Huoshui talked incessantly about Feng Chao's recent situation.
Gu Qingcheng thought for a moment and said, "Emperor Feng will probably leave a will! The prince is too young, and there are too many variables in the future."
"Chu Zhao can use the advantage of his rebirth to temporarily fool Emperor Feng."
"But Emperor Feng is an emperor after all, and he has the unique suspicion and caution of an emperor."
He would neither truly trust the regent nor place his hopes on a princess like Chu Zhao.
He will also prepare other trump cards.
only--
"He has a stupid teammate."
Even if Love-Brain is reborn a hundred times, she will still be a little woman with only love in her mind.
She desires power, and it is because of power that she can better express love.
affairs of state?
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
The Chu royal family?
She doesn't care at all.
And that Lu Yan will use Chu Zhao to stand at the pinnacle of power in Feng Dynasty.
"… Queen Mother, your guess is absolutely correct!"
Huoshui continued, "Lu Yan relied on his disguise to deceive Emperor Feng. Not only did Emperor Feng include him in the list of ministers, he also ranked him first!"
"He's a tutor to the crown prince in his twenties, and he's the consort of the princess who supports the country."
Lu Yan already had some influence in the court, and with the BUFF that Chu Zhao had actively helped him to stack, he was already showing a trend of dominating the court.
“Three years!”
Gu Qingcheng thought about it and raised three fingers. "With Chu Zhao, a disloyal idiot, Lu Yan will be able to control the entire Feng Dynasty in three years at most."
Perhaps he would even instigate Chu Zhao to "kill his own relatives for the sake of justice", with Chu Zhao bearing the crime of killing his brother and his king, while Lu Yan would take the throne.
In order to achieve this step, Lu Yan will definitely make many promises to Chu Zhao and draw the biggest pie in the world.
However, after he ascended the throne and took control of the Feng Dynasty, the first person he wanted to deal with was Chu Zhao.
As for Chu Zhao, he was used and abandoned by a black-hearted scumbag. His country was destroyed and his family was ruined. He died with hatred in his heart!
Chu Zhao died. When Lu Yan saw her body, he realized that he had fallen in love with the little fool who had been exploited by him!
He felt hatred and regret, so he killed all those who bullied Chu Zhao and gave Chu Zhao a grand funeral.
Although he found many women who were similar to Chu Zhao in spirit or appearance, and had a large number of children.
But his heart was always empty, and he could only be a lonely man with nothing in the world for the rest of his life! "…Tsk, what a touching story of sadomasochism!"
Gu Qingcheng is too familiar with this routine. Even if Chu Zhao changes a man, with her temperament and intelligence, she will still become the BE heroine.
Huoshui: ...You've already complained about everything, what else should I complain about?
Moreover, Your Majesty, you have spoiled the plot again!
Gu Qingcheng learned about the situation next door and knew that Feng Dynasty was beginning to be in turmoil. She knew that she didn't have much time left.
This time and space is indeed a small world derived from a sadistic novel.
But, when you really live in it, you will find that there is more than just love-brained people here.
There are also ambitious people like Emperor Qing.
Gu Qingcheng dared to bet that as long as Emperor Qing knew about the turmoil in Feng Dynasty, he would take the opportunity to send troops.
Haha, Lu Yan and Chu Zhao wanted to stage a drama of tragic love, but Emperor Qing and other normal people would not agree.
The Qing Dynasty will take action and tell them with cruel reality: this world is for the truly strong to rule, not for some people to talk about love in the background !
Gu Qingcheng is now in Xizhou, and the soldiers under his command have not yet been trained.
Even if Qing Dynasty wanted to attack Feng Dynasty, she would not stand a chance! "Three years! Three years at the latest!"
Gu Qingcheng silently set a deadline for herself.
She threw the trouble into the small dark room and started to get busy.
After some hesitation, the N generations left or retreated.
And those who finally stayed were extremely determined.
Gu Qingcheng recruited some soldiers in Xizhou to make up for the losses in the battle of Tubao.
Still five hundred people, plus thirteen N generations.
Huo Wuniang took the lead, and Gu Qingcheng took a carriage, and the group went to the North City in a mighty manner.
…
The North City is not too big, and there are only three main streets in the city.
There were only one thousand households registered in the government's household register among the people in the city.
There were even fewer military households, only about 600.
It would be bad enough if there were only a few people, but the city was also in a dilapidated state.
Only half of the huge city gate remained.
The moat is almost filled up.
If the Western Rong cavalry or the Yu Dynasty troops came, they wouldn't have to put in much effort, they could just ride their horses and charge in!
The soldiers at the city gate and on the city wall were either pale and thin or lazy and slack.
Gu Qingcheng had no doubt that if the enemy attacked, they would not be able to resist at all.
Maybe, they will just lie down and surrender first! "Jiulang, here——"
When Huo Wuniang saw this, she was also dumbfounded.
Although she grew up in the West Province, she had never been to the North City.
Seeing such a ruined city and numb soldiers, her scalp felt numb.
Is this place okay? Did Jiulang make a mistake? "Not bad! Very good!"
Gu Qingcheng was very satisfied. She believed that a city like this was the stage for them to show their talents.
She is determined to take over this base!
