Chapter 367: Four Anti-kings
Qin Chongyi was born in a family of officials and eunuchs, and has the same problem as the master of the Wang family-loves beauties. His back house was a little messier than that of the Lord Wang.
The reason why the master of the Wang family had problems with his back house, but not his, was because he had a super powerful wife.
Although his wife failed to give birth to a son-in-law herself, she raised a son-in-law of Qin Chongyi as a son-in-law under her own name.
Although there are countless beauties in Qin Chongyi's back house, none of them can give birth to a son for him under Mrs. Qin's nose.
He has been married for more than 20 years, and there is still only a single seedling under his knees.
Zhao Zongrong, who is entrenched in the southwest, is in his early forties this year. His biological father is a direct descendant of a local rich family, and his mother is a clan daughter.
As for Pei Yuanjiang, who occupied the northwest, this is the youngest of the four anti-kings, and he has a relationship with Ye Anlan.
He came from a family of military generals, his ancestral home was in the capital, and his grandfather was originally a confidant general under Lao Ping Xihou's account.
After Lao Ping Xihou passed away, his family has been suppressed and excluded by the new Northwest Army commander.
His grandfather had no choice but to resign from office and died in depression, but his father first secretly took the family out of the capital, and then pulled up a team to fight against the new commander-in-chief sent by the imperial court.
After the death of the new commander-in-chief, Pei Yuanjiang's father did not continue to conquer other rebel forces. He stuck to the northwest and, like Bai Qingzhi of the Dingbei Army, began to concentrate on resisting foreign enemies.
Not long ago, the venerable General Pei passed away due to injuries. Pei Yuanjiang was ordered to take over the power from his father and became the youngest of the four anti-kings.
Not long after he took over, the imperial court sent all the remaining four-way rebels a letter of recruitment.
They didn't naively think that these four families would accept the recruitment and send the recruitment documents. The court actually had the idea of "what if".
They want to solve the domestic rebel forces without bloodshed. If someone accepts the recruitment and someone refuses the recruitment, then they let those who accept the recruitment beat those who do not.
If it rains red and the sun comes out from the west, and these four families are unexpectedly willing to accept recruitment, then they will send all four families to fight against the Nanman, Beihu, Xiyi, and pirates in the east.
In short, let them fight each other internally or with external enemies, so that the crisis in Kyoto will naturally be resolved.
The power holders of the Great Zhou Dynasty did have a good plan, but the problem is that the leaders of the rebel army who can survive to the end in the troubled times are not easy to fool.
What is the intention of the imperial court's move? They all brought their own counselors to analyze it thoroughly. It's just that the plans of these four families are different, so the reactions are also different.
Xie Yuan, who is still implementing the "gou" tactic, and Zhao Zongrong, who is somewhat related to the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty, chose to use the drag tactic.
They didn’t want to be recruited to be the sword in the hands of the Great Zhou court, and it was the kind of brainless knife that would break themselves, and they didn’t want to be the first bird to jump out to attract firepower.
Different from them, Pei Yuanjiang simply gave the answer "no" as soon as he received the recruitment document.
This young anti-king is different from his father, who likes to make decisions before acting. He is a straightforward person who is suitable for being a fierce general and not suitable for playing tricks.
Because he couldn't understand the various behaviors of the Great Zhou court, he drove away the envoy who sent the recruitment document without thinking.
Contrary to his obvious hatred, Qin Chongyi, who was sandwiched between him and Xie Yuan's territory, showed great interest in accepting the recruitment.
When the news spread, the other three anti-kings, including Xie Yuan, felt that Qin Chongyi had been kicked out of his head by a donkey.
They unanimously summoned their counselors to analyze the information as soon as they received the information, but they talked and analyzed for several hours, but no one could analyze what kind of madness Qin Chongyi committed or what kind of evil he had fallen into. .
The closest to Jinyang, Qin Chongyi's headquarters, Xie Yuan, who was the first to receive the news of Qin Chongyi's intention to accept the recruitment, sent Li Jing and Ye Anlan who volunteered before the other two.
The two brought hundreds of martial arts masters including Chang'an, Yang Xiaotao, Wen Liuniang, and Zheng Fengshou, and sneaked into Jinyang, the headquarters of the Qin family, in disguise.
When they arrived, the leadership of the Qin family in Jinyang City had clearly divided into two camps, those who agreed to accept the recruitment and those who did not agree to accept the recruitment.
Through the continuous information sent back by the informants, Li Jing and Ye Anlan gradually learned about Qin Chongyi's motivation and purpose for accepting the recruitment.
As I said before, Qin Chongyi has the same problem as the master of the Wang family - he loves beauties, while his wife, Wu family, keeps his back house tight.
Ms. Wu is so capable, what outsiders see is her hard work and superb skills in stabilizing Qin Chongyi's rear house, but what Qin Chongyi himself sees is that Mrs. Wu is jealous, vicious, and obstructive.
He felt that if it wasn't for the Wu family, he could have a full house of children and grandchildren, and their Qin family could have flourished.
Unlike now, he only has one son on the surface, and that son was raised by his aunt Wu as a male version of Wu.
Because Qin Chongyi took over his father-in-law's class, many of the capable generals under his command were recruited by his father-in-law at the beginning. These people respected the Wu family more than he did him, so Qin Chongyi didn't dare to know what to do with the Wu family.
In particular, the Wu family did not let him cut off his children and grandchildren. After finding out that he could not bear children, the Wu family immediately arranged for Qin Chongyi to have two beautiful concubines with their own charms.
It's just that his two beautiful concubines are the same as Wu Shi, they didn't give birth to him a son and a half daughter, on the contrary, it was a dowry maid brought by one of his concubines who conceived Qin Chongyi's now-named daughter by accident. That son-in-law.
Wu doesn't care who the child is born from. Anyway, she just needs a "legal son" who can stabilize her own position and the hearts of the team.
But the two beautiful concubines who felt that the maids had robbed them of the limelight were not to mention how flustered they were.
Especially the beautiful concubine who was originally the master of the maid, she couldn't stand her former maid at all, and now she faintly overwhelmed her.
These two people, as well as the other beauties who Qin Chongyi took over the house behind him, all regarded the biological mother of the "concubine" as a thorn in their side, but it was Mrs. Wu who didn't want to have any estrangement with the "concubine", and shot again and again The biological mother who protects the "legal son".
Later, that maid who had encountered life-and-death crises several times voluntarily chose to avoid the Qin Mansion, and Qin Chongyi's other concubines finally stopped targeting her.
In contrast, Qin Chongyi's "di son" has to face more and more open swords and hidden arrows.
