My best friend is wearing a double body! Marry the emperor! Help me win the throne
Chapter 216 Civil strife!
It is human nature to love gossip!
When Xue Youli heard that Jiu Caichuan Yifu and the King's wife had a secret, her eyes lit up: "Tell me about it!"
The Secret Book: [The King's eldest son is not his biological son, but his father's.]
Damn it! Damn it!
This melon is so explosive!
Xue Youli had never imagined that Kusaichuan Yifu was having an affair with the Japanese king's wife, and she quickly asked for details: [I heard that the king's wife married the king at the age of sixteen. When did she and Kusaichuan Yifu have a child? She got pregnant and married the Japanese king, and the Japanese king didn't feel anything at all?]
Secret Book: [The King's Wife and Kusai Chuan Kazuo are old acquaintances, considered childhood sweethearts. After marrying the King, the King's Wife left a banquet midway through, and their relationship with Kusai Chuan Kazuo was sparked by affection, but they failed to maintain proper etiquette, resulting in the birth of a child!]
The main reason why Murong Ye was valued by Jiucaichuan Yifu was that Jiucaichuan Yifu had only two daughters and no sons.
If Jiu Caichuan Yifu knew that he had a son, Murong Ye's good days would be over.
Xue Youli immediately shared the gossip he had read from the Book of Heaven's Secrets with Chu Xinyue.
Chu Xinyue was overwhelmed with excitement after hearing this. "I heard that the King of Japan is very fond of his eldest son. Not only has he handed over some of his military power to him, but he's also planning to make him the next crown prince. The King's second son is the son of his favorite concubine, and he's only half a year younger than his eldest son. If it were to be revealed that the eldest son isn't the King's biological son, that would be quite exciting!"
Xue Youli also had this idea. "As long as the background of the king's eldest son is exposed, the three of them will definitely fall into internal strife. By then, there will be no need for us to take action, because Japan will be in chaos first!"
Once there is civil unrest in Japan, how can they care about Murong Ye's ambition to seize the throne?
By that time, the Japanese frontline soldiers will definitely be withdrawn back to their capital!
Murong Ye will become a commander without troops again!
Chu Xinyue immediately clapped her hands in delight, "Great! I'll send someone to Japan right now to spread the secret about the King's wife! I guarantee that within two days, everyone in Japan will know that the King has been cuckolded by his wife, Kazuo Kazuhiro Kawakawa!"
Xue Youli smiled slightly, "With this shocking piece of news, it will be much easier for us to deal with Japan!"
Chu Xinyue and Xue Youli studied the strategy overnight and sent Qingfeng and Wang Dali to lead several soldiers who could speak Japanese to the capital of Japan overnight.
Two days later, the capital of Japan suddenly revealed the news that the eldest prince of Japan was not the biological son of the king!
At the same time, many people dug up the past of the King's wife and Kazuo Kusaichuan, who were childhood sweethearts before she got married.
The second prince of Japan regarded the eldest prince as a strong rival. After hearing about this, he immediately added fuel to the fire and ordered people to spread the news.
The news seemed to have wings and spread throughout Japan in just one day.
After hearing the rumors, the King of Japan thought more and more that his eldest son looked like Kazuo Kusaichuan.
He directly ordered his eldest son to rush back to the capital overnight.
At this time, his eldest son had received a secret letter from the king's wife, telling him the truth about his life.
The eldest prince of Japan already held military power. Thinking that his father had sent most of the troops to the border to confront the Jiuzhou army, he made a prompt decision and decided to take the initiative. After sending a secret letter to his mother, he led his troops directly to the capital and launched a palace coup!
The next day, it was just dawn in the morning.
Kusaichuan Yifu, who was far away in the northeastern border, received the news that the eldest prince was plotting a rebellion.
After hearing the news that the Queen's wife had an affair with Hisashi Kazuo, the Second Prince made preparations in advance.
Although the eldest prince's troops surrounded the palace, they were unable to break in.
The two sides were deadlocked, neither giving in.
The second prince took the queen's wife as a hostage and forced the eldest prince to surrender.
In order not to implicate her son, the queen committed suicide on the spot.
When Kazuo Kusaichuan learned that the civil unrest in Japan was because the eldest prince was his own child, he was so excited that he crushed the cup in his hand on the spot.
The eldest prince is not the king’s son, but his son?
Just thinking about this made him uncontrollably excited.
He had wanted a son for many years, but unfortunately, after giving birth to two daughters, his wife's belly stopped moving.
As he grew older, he gradually became unable to have a son.
He originally thought that he would never have a son in this life. He was even considering raising Murong Ye as his son after verifying that Murong Ye was sincere to his daughter.
But now he found out that he had an affair with the king's wife and made her pregnant!
Kazuo Kusaichuan couldn't find words to describe his feelings at the moment.
Even though we know that such incredible news breaking out during such an extraordinary period is likely a trick by the people of Jiuzhou.
However, deep down he hoped that this news was true. If the eldest prince was his son, then he would wholeheartedly assist the eldest prince and help him become the next ruler of Japan!
When Murong Ye learned that Jiu Caichuan Yifu had ordered a withdrawal, he immediately rushed to the commander's tent and said, "Father, we have been preparing for this battle for so long. How can you withdraw now?"
Kusaichuan Yifu looked at the earnest expression on Murong Ye's face and snorted coldly, "Mr. Murong, because of your mistake, I lost most of the food, thousands of soldiers, and nearly a hundred ninjas. I didn't punish you for Hezi's sake! What qualifications do you have to dictate the affairs of Japan?"
Murong Ye could see that his attitude towards him had obviously changed.
This has a lot to do with the rumors that have recently been circulating in the capital of Japan.
"Father, the civil unrest in the capital is clearly a conspiracy orchestrated by Jiuzhou. You must not be fooled!"
However, no matter how much he begged, Jiu Caichuan Yifu would not listen to a single word he said!
There is no smoke without fire!
How could he not have any idea whether the eldest prince was his son?
"You go out."
Kusaichuan Yifu waved his hand impatiently at him, then ordered Shuiping Taijiro standing next to him, "Go and pass on my order. Everyone must leave for the capital tomorrow morning!"
Although the eldest prince has military power, he cannot compete with the military forces of the king and the second prince.
If they continue to remain in this stalemate, the morale of the Crown Prince's men will be exhausted, and their defeat will be a matter of time.
Therefore, he must go back as soon as possible to lend a helping hand to the eldest prince!
Jiu Caichuan Yifu had doubted the authenticity of the rumor in his heart, but when he thought about it carefully, he remembered the hesitant expression on the Queen's face every time she saw him over the years, and the fact that the eldest prince's facial features were about 50% similar to his, he was sure that the eldest prince was indeed his son.
"Father, it's unwise to withdraw our troops at this time! Jiuzhou could counterattack at any time, so why not strike with all our might..."
Murong Ye wanted to persuade him again, but before he could finish his words, Jiu Caichuan Yifu interrupted him impatiently, "I have made up my mind, get out!"
Murong Ye's heart sank when he saw the flash of annoyance on Jiu Caichuan Yifu's face.
He knew that Jiu Caichuan Yifu was determined to return to the capital to support the eldest prince, and in his eyes, he, the son-in-law, was always an outsider.
Murong Ye gritted his teeth and lowered his head, a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
Since Cai Chuan has been unkind for a long time, don't blame him for being unjust!
After he left the coach's tent, he looked at Taijiro in front of him, his eyes flashing, and he quickly caught up with him, "Taijiro, wait for me!"
At the behest of Kusai Chuan Yifu, Shuiping Taijiro had become very close to Murong Ye. Seeing him chasing after him, he advised him, "Mr. Murong, Lord Kusai has been very kind to you by not holding you responsible for the failed night raid. Don't overthink it. Lord Kusai decided to return to the capital to help the Crown Prince, largely because he and the King's wife are family friends."
Murong Ye was too lazy to listen to his useless nonsense. He glanced around a few times and saw that there was no one around. He suddenly had an idea and raised his hand to point randomly, pretending to be surprised. "Huh? Taijiro, what do you see over there?"
Hearing his puzzled tone, Shuichi Taijiro turned his head and looked in the direction he was pointing.
However, before he could see clearly what Murong Ye said, he felt a pain in the back of his neck.
By the time Shuichi Taijiro realized he had been deceived, it was already too late.
He turned his head stiffly and looked at Murong Ye who had attacked him, "You...you..."
Bang!
Unfortunately, before he could utter a single question, his vision went dark and he fell straight down.
Murong Ye avoided the patrolling guards and dragged the unconscious Shuichi Taijiro into the tent.
After dealing with Shuiping Taijiro, Murong Ye immediately issued a false military order, ordering all the Japanese troops to attack the city immediately!
For him, instead of relying on others and looking at their faces, it is better to borrow the military strength of Japan and fight a desperate battle!
As a result, tens of thousands of Japanese troops, fully armed, forcibly attacked Ningcheng.
Fortunately, Xue Youli and Chu Xinyue were prepared and set up ambushes and traps outside the city in advance.
When the Japanese army rushed over, they fell one after another into the deep pit they had dug.
On the walls of Ningcheng, archers were already on full alert.
Before they could get close to the city wall, a rain of arrows fell from the sky.
The long arrow pierced his body and he screamed in pain.
Wave after wave of Japanese soldiers fell.
"Mr. Murong, forcing a city is tantamount to committing suicide. Did Lord Jiucai really issue such an order?"
Seeing someone doubting him, Murong Ye stabbed the man in the abdomen with his sword without saying a word. "Everyone, listen up! Anyone who dares to question my father's decision will die! Retreating in battle will also lead to death!"
Everyone was frightened by his vicious and cruel methods and could only bite the bullet and rush towards the city gate.
Even though they knew there was a dead end ahead, they had no choice!
Just when the archers on the city wall were overwhelmingly defeating the Japanese army, Taijiro Shuichi came towards them on horseback.
Murong Ye knocked him unconscious and threw him into the tent. When he woke up, he found that all the soldiers in the camp were gone, and he knew that something was wrong.
Unfortunately, when he arrived, nearly half of the Japanese soldiers had been killed.
"Retreat! Everyone, retreat to the main camp! Lord Jiucai has given the order, everyone, immediately..."
Shuiping Taijiro shouted at the top of his voice, trying to get everyone to retreat, but Murong Ye didn't give him a chance to speak and threw the sword in his hand out fiercely.
Pfft!
The long sword pierced into Shuichi Taijiro's abdomen accurately and pierced through his body.
He slowly lowered his head and watched the blood flow out along the blade of the sword.
He opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, he spat out a mouthful of blood.
His body swayed a few times on the horse's back, and then he fell headfirst.
The horse was frightened and ran around wildly, stepping on Shuichi Taijiro's chest.
Shuichi Taijiro's internal organs were instantly dislocated, and the pain made him numb.
His eyes moved, his vision gradually blurred, and he could only hear the screams of the Japanese soldiers around him.
Finished!
This time, the Japanese army was completely defeated by Murong Ye!
On his deathbed, Shuichi Taijiro saw a gentle figure walk up to him and gently stroke his head.
He knew it was his mother who came to pick him up.
When he was five years old, his mother was beaten to death by his father in order to protect him.
He could no longer remember what his mother looked like, but he had never forgotten the woman who protected him with her life.
If it weren't for Jiucai Chuan Yifu adopting him, he would still be begging on the streets. Now his death on the battlefield can be regarded as a repayment for Lord Jiucai's life-saving grace.
Mother, I can finally be reunited with you again!
Shuiping Taijiro stretched out his arm towards the gentle figure in front of him. When he felt the other person holding his hand, the corners of his mouth rose and he slowly closed his eyes...
That night, because Murong Ye falsely conveyed the military order of Jiu Caichuan Yifu, tens of thousands of Japanese troops died outside Ningcheng.
The Kyushu army defeated the Japanese, and Hisakawa Kazuo fled the northeastern border in a panic with his remaining troops.
Chu Xinyue pursued the victory and finally shot and killed Jiu Caichuan Yifu.
The remaining Japanese soldiers were leaderless, some died and some fled.
At the same time, civil unrest broke out in Japan and the people suffered greatly.
Taking advantage of the civil unrest in Japan, Chu Xinyue went all out and fought all the way to the capital of Japan. She beat the king of Japan to his knees and begged on the spot, and expressed that he would completely submit to Jiuzhou in the future.
From then on, Japan ceased to exist, Kyushu expanded its territory, and the people on the northeastern border no longer had to live in fear.
However, the joy of victory did not last long. Chu Xinyue and Xue Youli received news that Murong Ye and Si Sha fled to the northern border overnight to join his sister.
Now Jiang Yuanshan's 100,000-strong army is confronting Xue Wuzhi and his army.
Jiang Yuanshan has been operating in the northern border for many years and has many loyal generals under his command.
However, there are also some soldiers who are loyal to Jiuzhou and the court.
After Xue Wuji and Yu Minyan arrived in the northern border, they did not start a war immediately, but instead persuaded all the soldiers to surrender as soon as possible.
Some of the soldiers did not want to follow Jiang Yuanshan in the rebellion, so they took the initiative to surrender to the court and express their loyalty.
However, the army in the northern border is large in number and has lived here all year round. They are more adapted to the climate of the northern border and are more familiar with the terrain of the northern border.
Xue Wuji had fought against the Northern Frontier Army several times. Although he had never been defeated, each victory was a bitter one.
After Xue Youli learned about the situation in the northern border from the Book of Heavenly Secrets and sent a secret letter to the capital, he and Chu Xinyue made a decision together -
Go to the northern border to support Xue Wuji and Yu Minyan!
When receiving this news, the morale of the Jiuzhou army was greatly boosted!
Two days later, Xue Wuji was studying a topographic map in his tent when Yu Minyan rushed in, "Commander-in-Chief, Princess Qinghe's troops have arrived at the city gate!"
Xue Wuji had long known that Xue Youli had also followed Chu Xinyue to the northeastern border. Upon learning that Chu Xinyue's army had arrived, he excitedly stood up from his desk and said, "Let's go! Let's go and welcome them into the city!"
