Chapter 688 King Jin is Back
When the news of Ji Fengwu personally leading the army spread, different countries reacted differently.
The Liao State, which had agreed to lend troops, delayed sending them. When it heard that the Jin State wanted to negotiate peace with the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, it just did what it should do and withdrew as it had nothing to do with the matter.
Ji Fengwu had just arrived at the border and was eager to get the antidote, but there was no trace of the antidote to be found.
She heard that Prince Rui was missing. Thinking that the cripple was half dead but not dead yet, Ji Fengwu was so angry that she couldn't sleep all night.
He spent the whole night drinking and eating to his heart's content with the corrupt officials of Jin State's envoys.
When she woke up, she was tied up and trapped in the territory of Jin State. Ji Fengwu was completely stunned.
Upon learning that the Empress had been captured by the Jin army, they took the Empress hostage, opened the city gates, and marched straight to the Kyoto. The Empress Dowager in the palace went dark and fainted from the shock.
The people in the palace and the harem were in chaos and crying.
Just when the Queen Mother got angry and wanted to rescue the Empress and the ministers secretly fled with their families and property, Prince Rui came back!
Yes!
The Prince Rui, who was escorted back to Beijing for trial but disappeared on the way, is back!
Since their sons and daughters were abducted by the enemy and their whereabouts were unknown, this bastard has returned safely. The Queen Mother was so angry that she fainted again.
After waking up, he will punish Ji Huashang!
Otherwise, she, his daughter, would not have led the army to look for the antidote. If she hadn't found the antidote, how could she have been captured by the enemy? !
The Queen Mother wanted to punish Prince Rui, but was opposed by the ministers. They believed that now that the Empress was away, there was no one in charge in the court, and Prince Rui was capable after all, so why not let him make meritorious contributions while serving his sentence?
The Queen Mother was so angry that she started cursing. Don't think she didn't know what these people were planning. What about making amends for her crimes? It sounds nice, but aren't they just trying to seize the throne while her daughter is away?
With him around, who dares to touch his daughter's throne!
Just when everyone was in a stalemate, King Jin came back!
King Jin is back?
It’s good to be back!
Finally, someone is available to take over this hot potato.
Ji Rujin: “…”
The return of Prince Jin gave this tense and depressing atmosphere some breathing space.
In the end, both sides compromised, and Prince Jin took over the Empress's position temporarily, and would make plans after the Empress returned. However, the Queen Mother disliked Prince Rui and insisted that he go to rescue the Empress.
Isn't it necessary to make amends for your crime?
The empress went to the border because of you, so it is up to you to rescue her.
The people of Prince Rui's faction were very angry. Their prince had acted like this but this old guy still didn't let her go. This was really too much!
They secretly suggested that they should just rebel. Originally, the throne belonged to Prince Rui. If it weren't for that guy Ji Fengwu using despicable means, how could she have sat on the throne?
Ji Huashang understood her subordinates' thoughts. If she had wanted to fight for that position in the past, she could see that she had lost too much along the way. Her father, wife, brother, and beloved ones had all left her, and she was disabled. She was really tired and didn't want to fight for anything.
Although she no longer cared about that position, the hatred in her heart for Ji Fengwu had not dissipated. If there was anything else in this world worth her planning, it was that she wanted Ji Fengwu to die!
Save Ji Fengwu?
dream!
However, we still have to go to the border.
If not for Ji Fengwu, then for the people of Eastern Zhou.
Just when the Eastern Zhou Dynasty was in danger of extinction, the Liao Kingdom took action.
The Liao cavalry was so brave that one could defeat ten enemies at once. The Liao army was divided into two groups, one went to Western Shu to support the general who protected the country, and the other went south to help Eastern Zhou repel the Jin army.
With the addition of the Liao army, the armies of Western Shu and Shanxi and Tibet were quickly defeated.
The Liao cavalry lived up to their reputation, and the Liao regent Xiao Jue was worthy of being the Liao's number one god of war, he was indeed powerful.
With the arrival of reinforcements, the situation in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty changed instantly.
The State of Jin was also in a panic. It never expected that the State of Liao would also interfere, and it was extremely angry!
Damn it, why are you trying to show off instead of just staying still?
What benefits will you get from borrowing troops from Eastern Zhou?
Thankless!
Is this because you have nothing to do after eating?
madman!
