I handed a document to him: "Song Dynasty has risen in rebellion."
Gongsun furrowed his brow: "The Song king... have they found Prince Cheng?"
"Yes, I didn't expect that Gongsun would actually say that. With the prince, they can come to attack me, Princess Wang."
"But with the military strength of the Song Dynasty, it's difficult to compete with the capital region."
"Uncle, don't forget, I have always kept a tight lock on the news from the capital region. So in their eyes, the army of the capital region should have just finished a fierce battle with the Qi army, and now is the time when they are exhausted."
The Song King is taking advantage of their weakness, using the name of Prince Cheng to enter Luoyang city in the name of upholding the orthodox.
Narrowing his eyes, "Zihe, I really underestimated him."
Inside the camp outside Luoyang city during the Song Dynasty.
"Your Majesty, the person in charge of Prince Cheng has a message, saying..."
Zihe continued to write on the official documents on the desk without lifting his head and asked, "What did they say?"
"His maidservant's appearance is not enough to serve him, he wants to exchange for some with better looks."
Zihe paused slightly at this request, then chuckled lightly, finding it hard to resist a sarcastic remark: "Yun, just say it's the prince's request, as the future ruler of the world, you can have whatever you want, Yun."
After the arrival of the visitor, Zihe rubbed his brow. This time, he came with Ji Cheng, making a well-known appearance and taking the route through Zheng State to approach the capital. Originally, they claimed to be suppressing the rebellion of Qi Dynasty, but now they heard that Princess Wang has already quelled the rebellion.
He is not quite clear about the current situation in Luoyang city.
Ji Shi What does it mean? He couldn't understand it either.
So he stationed his army outside Luoyang city and sent a letter to Qishan Hall. There should be a reply today.
"Your Majesty, a letter from Luoyang city has arrived."
"Present it to me."
He lightly brushed his fingers over the bamboo slips, furrowing his brow slightly. He didn't believe the invitation in the letter was sincere. What concerned him was that the writing style and wording of the letter were typical of Ji Shi, but the handwriting was not hers, nor was it the formal script used by the imperial censor.
As he looked at the sharp and slightly tense handwriting in front of him, for some reason, he thought of Jang Shin. The rebellion in Qi Dynasty was already well known throughout the world, but apart from the people in the palace, no one knew the true situation. Her handling of the Qi army was also unclear.
Jang Shin.....
He remembered the young man who had confronted him in front of Qishan Hall, with a cold and fierce demeanor. Jang Shin liked Ji Shi, and Zihe had been very sure of this many years ago.
What about Ji Shi? In the months since Jang Shin arrived in Luoyang city, what has happened to them?
Ji Shi Do you still like him?
Zihe His fingers tightened around the bamboo slips, making a creaking sound: It's not allowed.
He has been planning for so many years, the position of the supreme ruler can only be his. Ji Shi, can only be his as well.
Zihe brought people to the agreed place in the letter, a pavilion outside Luoyang city. However, the one who came to meet him was not Ji Shi. He stood outside the pavilion, looking at the person inside: "Why is the king of Qi Dynasty here?"
Jang Shin sat in the pavilion, sipping tea, and replied with a question: "The Song king arrives, but does our king arrive?"
"If I remember correctly, it's Princess Wang who is meeting with me, not king of Qi Dynasty."
"And now, she should be addressed as king."
"What?"
"I said, now she is the new king of Da Zhou. The enthronement ceremony has not taken place yet, so outside the capital region, there is no news of her becoming the king." Zihe was stunned for a while and said, "So that's how it is."
He finally understood her true thoughts all along, even more ruthless and decisive than he had imagined. From the beginning, she was aiming for the throne. Originally, she was in a deal with him, but now Jang Shin has fulfilled the conditions ahead of him.
Zihe sat down opposite Jang Shin and sneered, "Even though king of Qi Dynasty is a traitor, she didn't kill you. Do you still want to be a loyal subject and negotiate with me?"
"No, I don't want to be a traitor to the dynasty, nor do I want to be her loyal subject."
Jang Shin Turning the teacup in hand, she smiled brightly and said, "In a few days, you can call me Mrs. Wang."
"What did you say?"
