Chapter 59: Borrowing Food

No one expected Duke Ping to kill his own brother and replace him at such a difficult time for the Yan Kingdom.

Duke Ping and Qinghe's fief was adjacent to Huaiyang. After Duke Ping ascended the throne, he would definitely target the number one family in Qinghe and force his elder brother to lead the noble families in Qinghe to hand over all their food and money.

Even if they handed them over, Duke Ping would never give up a fat piece of meat like Qinghe.

Even Cui Shize could think of it on his way to the border, let alone Cui Shiji, who had been secretly observing the situation.

They must have been prepared. Perhaps they had already followed Cui Muzhi and the others when they set off.
