The daily life of the concubine of the Prime Minister

Marquis Yuzhang left behind the most powerful men around him, and they quickly returned to the village and informed Master Chen San. He then took all the elite troops to catch up, while Master Chen San took the opportunity to follow the other infantry and encircled the small road leading to the capital.

Prince Qi didn't know that he had become someone else's meat on the chopping board.

Although it would be a bit difficult for ten thousand elite soldiers to capture the imperial palace under normal circumstances, today is the day when my father is buried. All the princes and the great dynasty will go to the imperial mausoleum and take away a large number of elite soldiers in the imperial city. For those who are left behind, it will not be difficult to capture this unguarded palace as long as they break through the weak points.

But why is he so uneasy?

"Deputy General Zhou, are you sure that Crown Prince Chen Zhihe has left the city?"

Prince Qi asked the deputy general beside him.

Deputy General Zhou nodded: "Don't worry, Your Highness. The spies ambushing in the palace have given us information that not only the Crown Prince, but also Zhou Zheng has left the city and gone to the Imperial Mausoleum."

This deputy general was a guard who had followed him since childhood. Prince Qi trusted him. He patted the things in his arms and stopped asking questions. He looked towards the direction of the palace and murmured:

"Chen Zhihe, Li Qi, when you return to the capital, will you still smile when you see that I am the heir to the throne? I will definitely trample you all under my feet and make you become street rats, just like me."

"No, it's worse than mine."

The deputy general was good at martial arts and had excellent hearing. Although Prince Qi's voice was low, he still heard it.

He became excited, what a success!

As a guilty subject, he thought that there would be such a day for him, which would make his years of submission worthwhile.

But while they were still having beautiful fantasies, the sounds of horse hooves, the wind, and the footsteps of soldiers, Prince Qi still felt something was wrong.

After thinking for a while, he figured it out.

Yes, it is the sound of the wind and the sound of bees collecting honey.

In April, when mountain flowers bloom, they complained a few days ago that there were fewer and fewer bees.

It's not normal.

He told Lieutenant General Zhou, who pricked up his ears and after carefully identifying it, his expression became serious.

As if to confirm their guess, the horse beneath them stopped moving and refused to move forward.

At this moment, a group of people suddenly blocked them. Who else could it be but Chen Zhihe's lackey Yuzhang Hou?

King Qi glanced at the less than a thousand men behind him, and his expression eased a little:

"Who am I? It turns out to be Marquis Yuzhang! You don't really think that such a small number of troops can stop me! If you know what's good for you, get out of the way and I can spare your life." While he said this, he had already winked at the deputy general behind him. A team of troops began to move behind Marquis Yuzhang's troops and surrounded and killed them by surprise.

"Stop talking nonsense. The prince orders you to lay down your weapons immediately, and you will be spared the death penalty." Marquis Yuzhang drew his sword and gave instructions solemnly.

Prince Qi pouted and said, "I want that incompetent sickly guy to forgive me..."

The two sides started fighting...

Although the more than 900 troops brought by Marquis Yuzhang were elite, they were faced with an army that was ten times larger than that of Prince Qi and were attacked from both sides. In less than half a breath, they began to retreat step by step, with countless casualties.

He was very happy about the chance of winning the battle right at the start, and the depression in his heart dissipated.

He burst out laughing.

Suddenly, his laughter stopped...

Behind Marquis Yuzhang, his soldiers fell down one after another without even a moment's notice.

Looking around, the small road leading to the capital was crowded with people. They were wearing the clothes of Yuzhang Marquis' soldiers, and the one leading them was Master Chen San.

Facing him, even though you are clearly in a winning position, you will fail for no reason.

These are the soldiers he spent countless silver taels to raise!

He wanted to escape, but the situation did not allow it.

Master Chen Sanye and Master Chen Erye led the team to rush up.

As proud as Prince Qi was of his numerical advantage just now, he now hated his numerical disadvantage.

Damn!

The two sides started fighting, and soon Prince Qi's troops began to panic.

Although everyone's head is hanging on the belt, but when they really face death,

How many people can keep calm?

But we are all mortals.

Seeing this, Master Chen Sanye once again said what Marquis Yuzhang had said at the beginning: surrender and spare your life.

Prince Qi's soldiers hesitated.

"Anyone who dares to surrender will be killed without mercy."

This sentence is just the opposite, choosing the lesser of two evils.

Everyone has a scale in their heart. Now that they have not returned to the capital, it can be said that they are being forced.

Slowly, the first man appeared and put down his spear.

Then the second and third...

Prince Qi took the initiative to launch an attack.

I thought to myself that even if I let these traitors die, I would not let them live.

But after all, it was found that the soldiers led by Chen Zhihe were unintentionally protecting the soldiers who had surrendered to them.

The surrendered soldiers reacted quickly and began to pick up weapons on the ground and kill King Qi's troops.

Seeing that the situation was irreversible, Prince Qi led his most trusted deputy general and began to retreat to the back mountain at the fastest speed.

Master Chen San immediately led people to chase after him. During this period, Marquis Yuzhang was accidentally cut on the arm.

After a cup of tea, Mr. Chen San came back with empty hands.

"There is an iron chain in the back hill. He escaped."

Yuzhang Hou nodded: "It's not your fault. This Prince Qi is just like a cockroach. It's normal that he can't be killed."

This was the only way, so the two men reorganized their troops and rushed to the capital, escorting the men and horses left for them by Prince Qi.

The families of officials above the seventh rank had to go to the emperor's funeral, and Liu Yu came.

According to the official ranking of the ministers in the court, as Mr. Chen Sanye's status rose, Liu Yu stood at the front, with only Old Madam Zhou in front of her.

Now, even if they were not family members of officials on good terms with the Chen family, everyone in the powerful circle in the capital knew that the Chen family had promoted a concubine to be the main wife.

There was jealousy and envy in the eyes looking at Liu Yu, but Liu Yu ignored those who were unhappy with her. She swept her eyes across the imperial mausoleum again, and she found that there was really no one else but Mr. Chen San.

It seems that not only Master Chen San is gone, but also Marquis Yuzhang.

These two people are all from Long's family, there is no reason for them not to come.

Moreover, when Master Chen San is with Marquis Yuzhang, the problems are often not something that can be solved by force and brains alone.

She couldn't help but worry.

Everything went smoothly until the burial, when we returned to the city.

I don’t know if someone was not used to Liu Yu, but someone deliberately pushed her from behind and she almost fell down.

Fortunately, Mrs. Yang helped her.

Yang Shizhong did not have a wife, so the one who came was naturally his mother, Mrs. Yang.

"Are you OK?"

"It's okay." Liu Yu turned around and glanced at the people behind him one by one, finally seeing a woman in a yellow dress.

Looking at her evasive eyes, it was undoubtedly her.

Liu Yu was looking at the Crown Prince walking in front, no, it should be said that it was the new emperor's motorcade, and he definitely couldn't do it by making a fuss.

She warned him, "Little girl, I don't know you!"

"No, I know you. You are the shameless concubine who got to the top by dirty means."
