Chapter 276 The Empress's Plans for a Sister
"what?"
When the empress heard Eunuch Gao say, "The barbarians are here for a marriage alliance," her eyes widened and she almost jumped up!
Are you kidding me?
Ha ha……
Did I hear it right?
The barbarians who were so high and mighty and had always looked down upon the Qi people would actually take the initiative to submit and propose marriage?
This indirectly shows that the barbarians had indeed suffered at the hands of Li Jize. They would only yield after being beaten and convinced.
But the problem is...
"If Li Jize really agrees to the marriage, what should I do? What will happen to my Great Qi?"
"Your Majesty! This matter cannot be delayed. Please come up with a set of rules as soon as possible!"
Eunuch Gao said, "I know you are very anxious, but don't worry. What is our top priority now?"
How to do?
What can the empress do?
She is in a panic now, okay?
A single barbarian seized the northern part of the Great Qi and forcibly turned the Great Qi into the Southern Qi.
The reason why she can still "restore her country" in the south is because Li Jize and the bandits are blocking the barbarians in the north.
It's ironic that the Empress's current regime is still stable only because of the support of Li Zhenbei and Li Jize, the two traitors in her eyes.
Of course!
Now it seems that this temporary security is no longer safe.
If Li Jize really married the barbarians, what would happen? Originally, the two families in the south were fighting against the barbarians together. Once Li Jize switched sides, the end of the rebels would be imminent.
Once the north is unified by the barbarians, let alone the now divided south, even if they are integrated together.
Since ancient times, there have been many cases of the north ruling the south, but there have been almost no cases of the south ruling the north.
"No! Li Jize must not be allowed to marry a barbarian."
"How dare he? Li Jize is my Grand Marshal of the Armies and even the King of Qin of the Great Qi!"
"I have treated him with high rank and generous salary, how could he betray me?"
The empress has now turned into a "resentful woman", complaining and grumbling endlessly.
Eunuch Gao: “…”
Oh my goodness! She is so bold.
You have the nerve to say that, but even he, a servant, is embarrassed to listen!
Did he say that he had a dream that Li Jize was going to rebel?
Who exposed Li Jize to the sun for three days and three nights after he denied it?
Not only did he pretend to be stupid and escape the disaster, but he also took up the national banner when foreign races invaded and the Great Qi was collapsing?
Now it turns out that the empress is kind to Li Jize.
"Cough cough..."
Seeing his master still standing there in impotent rage, Eunuch Gao could only cough and then whisper, "Your Majesty, now is not the time to vent! We should solve the problem!"
Empress: "..."
The anxious and worried empress came to her senses and looked at Eunuch Gao, her eyes widening as she asked, "Solve the problem! How are we going to solve it? And how am I supposed to solve this problem?"
Well! Eunuch Gao really wants to ask, are you the emperor or me?
Of course, as a slave, the master is worried! If you can show yourself and share the worries, will you still be worried about not being able to rise to the top in the future?
Thinking of this, Eunuch Gao immediately offered his own suggestions, "Your Majesty, I have two suggestions, but I don't know whether I should share them or not!"
Ok?
The Empress was so anxious that she was almost sweating all over. When she heard someone say there was a plan, her eyes lit up and she quickly said, "Tell me! Gao Banban, just tell me!"
"Your Majesty, I have two strategies, one civil and one military. Which one would you like to hear?"
Eunuch Gao's words made the Empress want to give him a slap in the face. What time is it? And this dog servant is still keeping things in suspense?
"What is a military strategy? What is a civil strategy?"
"Wu Ce..."
Eunuch Gao looked around and made sure that no one else was around before he whispered, "The military strategy is to kill the king and seize the military power!"
then……
Balabala! Balabala!
To sum up, Eunuch Gao's military strategy is to look at Liu Bang in Li Jize's time and space, go to Qingzhou in person, and then seize the tiger talisman and take away the military power.
But this won't work here. The eunuch meant that the empress should go to Qingzhou in person, set up a Hongmen Banquet to kill Li Jize, and then incorporate his army.
Since the emperor was present and the King of Qin was dead, these Qin soldiers naturally surrendered.
Is this a good idea?
good! Very good!
So good!
Of course, it was not Li Jize who exploded, but the empress.
Did I hear that correctly? He told her to go to Qingzhou, set up a Hongmen Banquet, kill Li Jize, and seize the King of Qin's military power.
Damn it!
After going to Qingzhou, was it her who took away Li Jize's military power, or was it Li Jize who "used the emperor to command the princes"?
Secondly, to assassinate Li Jize, what kind of expert should we look for who can take down the "General of Heavenly Strategy" who has only 3,000 soldiers and can break through the barbarian army of 100,000?
Let's take a step back and say that even if we are lucky enough, we can really kill Li Jize.
Can the empress really control Qingzhou and those Qin soldiers?
According to the information she received, Li Jize was in Qingzhou, cleaning up the landlords.
Those soldiers came from poor families, and they hated the landlords. Unfortunately, the biggest landlord in the world was the empress! The emperor!
With such an army that specializes in fighting landlords, if the empress kills the core figure Li Jize, not only will she not get any military power, but believe it or not, the Qin army will rebel tomorrow. They will cross the Tianjiang River tomorrow to kill her, the emperor, and then change the dynasty.
After thinking for a long time...
The Empress's face turned pale. It was obvious that she did not approve of Eunuch Gao's "military strategy". "How about we talk about the literary strategy?"
Eunuch Gao was stunned, with disappointment flashing in his eyes. In fact, what he advocated was Wen Ce, right?
But what can we do if the emperor doesn’t like it?
"Your Majesty, Wen Ce has no choice but to confer a higher title on Li Jize and give him even more generous rewards!"
After Eunuch Gao finished speaking, the empress froze on the spot, her face full of disbelief.
"A reward? He's already the King of Qin, the Grand Marshal of the Armies. What else can I offer him? Do you want me to give him my throne?"
This is also the way of being a king!
The rewards were too great at the beginning. What will you do when there is nothing left to reward you?
The emperor who was unable to step down would usually kill the "hero" in the end. The empress did the same thing before.
But now...
Haha, you’re just thinking about it.
"Your Majesty, since the barbarians have given a princess, why can't we, the Great Qi, give one?"
Ok?
The old eunuch's words made the empress stunned on the spot, with a look of disbelief on her face.
"Our Princess Wen Yi is in Qingzhou, in the hands of Li Jize!"
The implication is that since he can't come back anyway, he might as well take advantage of the situation and do a favor, and at the same time win over Li Jize.
