As the saying goes, if you can't bear the child, you can't trap the wolf.

Wang Chen wasted a lot of bullets and shells to give Song Wei a drill, and the result was naturally very satisfying, in addition to Song Hao's promise to do everything in his power to help him succeed, he also pointed out the existence of several heavyweight neutral officials, and pointed out some of these people's weaknesses.

Song Wei specifically pointed out that there were three people who could not be touched.

The first is Prime Minister Xue Juzheng, who is in charge of the "regime" and is the supreme governor.

The second is the privy envoy Cao Bin, as the highest official in the "military" field, he cannot have much contact.

As for the third, needless to say, it is naturally Shen Yilun, the supreme officer of the three divisions in terms of "money".

Because these three top officials are fully responsible for Zhao Kuangyin, not to mention Wang Chen, even Zhao Guangyi can't let the three of them join the camp, especially Shen Yilun, who used to be Zhao Kuangyin's staff.

However, Wang Chen didn't think about finding the three of them.

Before, he wanted to win over Lu Duosun and let the officials install some people for him, but Lu Duosun did not agree, and Wang Chen felt that it was harmless, because what he wanted to do now was to help Zhao Defang fight for the throne.

What is the most important thing in the fight for the throne?

After Zhao Kuangyin's death, he successfully ascended the throne as soon as possible, and at that time, even if some external forces are in the hands of others, they can also use the imperial power to take it back little by little.

So, how can you succeed in ascending the throne in the first place?

There are three departments that need to be mastered.

First, Wu Desi, that is, the later Imperial City Division, in addition to being a secret service agency like the Jinyi Wei of the Ming Dynasty, Wu Desi is also responsible for the palace ban, and the various gates of the palace are guarded by the Wu Desi.

The second, the classes in front of the palace, such as Xu Ning's golden gun class in "Water Margin" is one of them, and Wuling, who was attracted by Zhao Defang, is also one of them, which is specially responsible for the internal ban of the palace, and the Wude Division is one mile and one outside, and they contain each other.

Of course, there are also people from the Privy Council in the palace to participate in the guard, and the Privy Council is now in the hands of Cao Bin, who is Zhao Kuangyin's cronies, Wang Chen doesn't have to think about it.

The last one is the Shang Pharmacy, which is under the control of this department, such as the imperial doctor, the imperial doctor, and so on.

Some people may ask, why is the fight for the throne involved in the Shang Pharmacy?

The reason is simple.

If a coup d'état is launched, Zhao Kuangyin must have died an unnatural death, which is unforgivable for ancient people, and Wang Chen must ask the Shang Pharmaceutical Bureau to prove that Zhao Kuangyin died "natural death".

The rest of Wang Chen didn't care, as long as he controlled the entire palace, he could basically succeed in fighting for the throne, as for the pressure from the outside world after success, he said it slowly, he was pressed for time, and he couldn't think about it so much for the time being.

……

Around noon.

With the help of Song Hao, Wang Chen met one of Shang Yao Fengyu of Shang Pharmacy, who is also Wang Chen's old acquaintance Liu Han, in fact, there are two Feng Yu in Shang Pharmacy to contain each other, according to the information provided by Song Hao, the other is Zhao Guangyi's person, Wang Chen will definitely not be able to contact.

In addition to Liu Han, there is also Li Huaizhong, the deputy commander of the front of the palace, the commander of the east and west classes, and the top commander of the front division of the palace is Zhao Kuangyin's cronies.

An ordinary farmhouse cellar in the eastern suburbs.

Under the light of the torches, I could barely see the form.

"National teacher. Liu Han smiled bitterly.

Li Huaizhong seemed very calm, and said with a smile: "I have heard the name of the national teacher for a long time, and it is like thunder, and when I see it today, it is really extraordinary." ”

Wang Chen saluted politely, "It's dark and messy here, and the two of you have been wronged, but today there is an important time to discuss with the two, and you have to make this decision, otherwise if it spreads, I am afraid that both of you will lose your lives, forgive me." ”

Li Huaizhong laughed, "What joy is there in life, and what is fear in death, if you can talk to a god like the national teacher, Li has no regrets when he dies." ”

looks at the personality is very free and easy, but the person who can be the deputy commander of the palace will definitely not be as cheerful as his appearance.

On the contrary, Liu Han was a little worried, and said with a reluctant smile: "If the national teacher has any orders, the lower officials will definitely do their best if they can do it." ”

Wang Chen didn't go directly to the topic, but asked rhetorically: "Liu Sicheng, I heard that you and Ma Zhi saved the life of King Jin a few years ago, but afterwards King Jin praised Ma Zhi a lot, but he snubbed you, is there such a thing?"

Li Huaizhong laughed hesitantly, "It's not just a snub, when Liu Sicheng was demoted, there was also the credit of King Jin." ”

Liu Hanxin said that you two don't open which pot to mention, who in the court doesn't know that Zhao Guangyi, the king of Jin, is unhappy with him Liu Han, the main reason is that when he went to treat Zhao Guangyi, he stared at the lady of the family for a long time, and then ...... Well, anyway, he was hated by Zhao Guangyi, but he couldn't say that in his mouth, Liu Han sneered and said: "In the low official position, how can you get into the eyes of King Jin." ”

After Wang Chen confirmed this matter, he smiled and said: "Liu Sicheng, you are fifty-eight years old this year, are you still satisfied with the Shang Pharmacy?" He heard Song Hao say that Liu Han was obsessed with two things in his life, one was medicine, and the other was being an official.

It is also true that medical skills allowed Liu Han to obtain an official position, and at the same time, it also limited his development, it can be said that anyone with a discerning eye can see that if nothing else, Liu Han has come to an end when he is still a medicine.

Liu Han was definitely dissatisfied in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it in his mouth, and said vaguely: "Make do." ”

"What if there is a chance to go further, such as becoming the secretary of the Ministry of Industry?" Wang Chen directly threw out the bait.

You must know that Liu Han is now only a fifth-grade official, and the Ministry of Industry is still from the second-grade, if there is a chance, as an official fan, he will definitely be eager to ah, Liu Han was stunned, and then stammered: "Work...... Ministry of Works?"

Wang Chen didn't answer his question, but looked at Li Huaizhong, "You followed Your Majesty to make great achievements, when you attacked Jinyang, you almost lost your life, but now you are only the deputy commander of the palace, Zheng Sipin, do you think it's worth it?"

Li Huaizhong still has a hippie smile, not at all like a person in his forties, "The big officials and the small officials are just more money and less money, why is it worth being satisfied or dissatisfied?"

Wang Chen stared at him, "A gentleman loves money and takes it in a good way, but if he is an official, even if he is the prime minister, counting allowances, job fields, etc., a year, he is only four or five thousand, and I heard that the commander has only four daughters under your knees, as the saying goes, if you are not filial, you have three queens, don't you want to have a son? Don't say anything, it's a wife and concubine, and your wife dares to say a few words?"

When he said this, Li Huaizhong's sore spot, his face turned blue and white for a while, and he said to himself with some embarrassment, "I just respect my wife." ”

Liu Han laughed out loud beside him, afraid that his wife would say it so fresh and refined?

Li Huaizhong glared at Liu Han.

After chatting for a long time, Wang Chen actually promised everything that should be promised, I believe the two of them can also understand, and what they have to do now is nothing more than to let them see hope, just like giving hope to Song Wei.

Wang Chen started the topic in an all-round way and dropped a bombshell, "Your Majesty has cancer and will die soon." ”

"Huh?"

"What?"

Liu Han and Li Huaizhong were shocked.

Wang Chen said solemnly: "There is a peerless secret within the royal family, you two may not know, it is called the Jinkui Alliance, what does it mean? That is, if His Majesty dies, the successor will be the King of Jin, and when the King of Jin abdicates, the next person will be the King of Wei, and the King of Wei will abdicate before it is the turn of Prince Dezhao." ”

The faces of the two changed.

Especially Liu Han, he was hated by Zhao Guangyi, if it was really like Wang Chen said, he would have a good life in the future?

Li Huaizhong is not much better, his position is the deputy commander of the palace, and he belongs to one of the emperor's closest people, but once the son of heaven and a courtier, if Zhao Guangyi ascends the throne, he will definitely replace all the former secretaries of the palace with Zhao Er's people, and then where will Li Huaizhong go?

"I know you two may doubt the truth of what I'm saying. Wang Chen said slowly: "Liu Sicheng, as far as I know, His Majesty was not feeling well before, and it was another Fengyu Ma Zhi from your Shang Pharmacy who went for treatment, and after that, he and King Jin got closer and closer, yes or no?"

Li Huaizhong hurriedly looked at Liu Han.

Liu Han thought about it carefully, and then nodded solemnly, "That's right, after he went to see His Majesty that day and came back, he didn't bring back any files, which didn't conform to the statutes of the Shang Pharmacy Bureau at all. ”

Li Huaizhong suddenly asked: "National Teacher, you just said that the Golden Kui Alliance is a secret of the royal family, so how did you know about it?"

Wang Chen chuckled lightly, and said earnestly: "Because, the next object I want you to be loyal to is the fourth prince Zhao Defang, he told me, if the two of you agree to obey me, after the fourth prince ascends the throne, I can promise Liu Sicheng to become the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, and Commander Li will make you, is the privy deputy envoy interested?"

The two of them looked at each other for a moment, then they both lowered their heads and fell into a contemplative phase.

Wang Chen is not afraid that the two of them will not agree, if they do not agree, I am sorry, it is impossible for these two people to get out of the cellar today, and the matter must not be revealed.

Liu Han was more cautious and said, "If I promise you, can I see His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince?"

"Yes. Wang Chen said.

Liu Han said unequivocally: "Then I agreed." ”

He didn't want to fall into the hands of Zhao Guangyi, besides, the Ministry of Industry, the right that he couldn't hope for in his life, now that it was in front of him, it was possible to get it, how could Liu Han, who was obsessed with the extreme, not be tempted.

However, the biggest reason for his determination was not these two points, but that Song Hao, the most famous wall grass in the world, fell to Wang Chen, to put it mildly, no one in the entire court knew that Song Hao did not do an uncertain "refuge".

is like Durant in the NBA, why did people join the Warriors, because he knew that the Warriors were a championship-level team, and as long as he joined, it would be easy to win the championship.

And Song Hao, who has always been the same principle of life as Durant, never takes refuge in someone who is not sure of winning.

Naturally, Liu Han believed in the choice of Song Wei, the most successful and sharp-eyed wall-grass ever, and he decided to fall to Wang Chen.

"What about you? Wang Chen asked slowly.

Li Huaizhong and Liu Han had similar thoughts, they both believed in Song Hao's clever gaze, but he still had one thing to confirm, "Privy Deputy Envoy?"

Wang Chen bowed his head and said, "Yes." ”

"Good. Li Huaizhong also agreed, "What do you need me and Liu Sicheng to do, just say it." ”

Wang Chen had prepared a lot of rhetoric, but he didn't expect the two to agree so easily, he was dizzy, yes, he didn't expect "Song Wei's great influence", but when he saw the two of them agree, he was overjoyed and said: "Liu Sicheng's side will not move for the time being, as for Commander Li's side, you will ...... I remember that you were in charge of the twelve squads of the Eastern and Western Classes, a total of more than 3,000 people, right?"

Li Huaizhong confirmed: "Yes, the East and West Class is the largest class in the front of the Palace. ”

Wang Chen said his inner thoughts: "I need to put a thousand people in." ”

Li Huaizhong was taken aback, "A thousand people is too many, and it is easy to be found if you insert it all at once." ”

Wang Chen waved his hand and said: "It's not a one-time insertion, but at a special point in time, such as a night when you are on duty, I need you to arrange these thousand people in various important places, understand?"

Li Huaizhong immediately woke up when he heard this, at a certain point in time that Wang Chen said, don't think about it, it must be the time to launch a coup d'état, and then it will either succeed or fail, and if they succeed as the winners, let alone a thousand people, even if there are 100,000 people, no one can say half a word, if it fails, then there will be no then, everyone will have to lose their heads.

It's just that powerful people like Song Hao have gambled their lives, Li Huaizhong and Liu Han have no reason not to gamble, and both of them agreed to Wang Chen.

In the end, Wang Chen warned, "If the two of you expose this matter, then don't blame me for being ruthless, you can just think about the consequences of Jiao Jixun a few days ago, I just wanted to scare him at the time, so I didn't kill him, otherwise, with my means of blowing up the carriage with a divine thunder from the sky, do you two think that flesh and blood can resist?"

Liu Han trembled and said: "Don't dare, don't dare, everything must be obeyed by the orders of the national teacher." ”

Li Huaizhong also flashed a trace of fear in his eyes, and hurriedly said: "Although the national teacher can rest assured, even if his subordinates lose their lives, they will never reveal half a word of the content of our conversation today. ”

Take down two important people, and all that's left is to install people.

……

Out of the cellar.

Wang Chen first used teleportation to send the two back to Song Hao's mansion, and then used teleportation to leave again, without anyone noticing his actions.

There is still one of the most important departments left unwon.

That's right, it's the Wude Division, this department is even more important than the front division of the palace.

If Zhao Kuangyin dies, Zhao Guangyi and Zhao Dezhao will definitely try their best to enter the palace when they get the news, and this Wu Desi is the biggest barrier to prevent or delay the two of them from entering the palace.

In fact, if he hadn't been remembered by Zhao Kuangyin, it would have been very easy to take down the Wude Division, because according to historical records, the highest official of the Wude Division at this point in time should be Wang Jien, but unfortunately, because Wang Chen was jealous of Zhao Kuangyin, he transferred Wang Jien back to his side and replaced him with another cronie.

Cronies?

Do you think I won't be able to take the person you replaced?

Wang Chen laughed, or rather, he felt very ridiculous, Zhao Kuangyin actually arranged for Gonggong Zhang to replace Wang Jien as the supreme commander of the Wude Division!

You must know that Gonggong Zhang is a spy arranged by the family of Empress Xiao of Liaoguo, and under Wang Chen's arrangement before, he recognized Zhang Qing as his son, which can be regarded as half of his own people!

Wang Chen felt that it was too simple to take down Zhang's father-in-law, as simple as eating and drinking.

First of all, he used his discernment to observe the inside of the Wu Desi, and Wang Chen saw that Gonggong Zhang had been busy, and people kept coming in and out to talk about things, and there was no way to get in.

It's almost time to go back to the palace.

Wang Chen couldn't wait any longer, so he had to use the soul snatcher to send a message to Zhang's father-in-law: "I'm Wang Chen, and I also ask my father-in-law to take a stick of incense from others, I have something important to discuss with you." ”

Father-in-law Zhang in the office was stunned, looked around suspiciously, and finally retreated from everyone.

Looked at.

Only then did Wang Chen use teleportation to move in.

house.

Gonggong Zhang frowned, lowered his voice and said, "Why are you here?"

Wang Chen walked slowly to Gonggong Zhang's side, leaned into his ear and whispered, "Empress Xiao." ”

As if he had been struck by lightning, Gonggong Zhang stood up with a bang, suddenly stared at Wang Chen with wide eyes, and stared at it like that, without saying a word!

Wang Chen put his hands behind his back and said in an inaudible voice: "Long live Da Liao." ”

Father-in-law Zhang, who was originally very vigilant, finally let go of his nervous look and said with a smile: "You are also sent by the master?"

Wang Chen said: "Well, now I have something important to tell you. ”

Zhang Gonggong said: "What's the matter?"

Wang Chen made a long story short and said: "After a while, the Great Song Palace may find out a little bit of the situation, and then I ask you to let Wu Desi help me with all his might." ”

"Good. Father-in-law Zhang agreed.

Wang Chen said: "This is not the place to speak, then I will leave first, and I will contact you at a later date." With that, he used his teleportation to move out of the Takeshi Division.

However, he didn't turn off Mingcha, but kept staring at the actions of Gonggong Zhang in the Wude Division.

Don't look at the cheerfulness that Gonggong Zhang promised just now, Wang Chen dared to guarantee with his life, and then Gonggong Zhang would definitely find a way to contact Empress Xiao to determine whether Wang Chen was really a spy of the Liao State.

Sure enough.

Here, Wang Chen came out of Wu Desi on the front foot, and Zhang Gonggong wrote a letter on the back foot and sealed it with a wax pill, and then called a twenty-one-twelve-year-old young man to hide it in the sole of a special shoe and take it out.

It's just that all this was exposed to Wang Chen's eyes, and he didn't go out in person, notified Wuling of the Golden Gun Class, and successfully intercepted this person in the suburbs.

As for the rest, Wang Chen believed that Wuling had a hundred ways to make Gonggong Zhang "convinced" that Wang Chen was indeed sent by the Liao State.

The three most important departments are taken!

It also has the strong support of the Song Hao family!

Once the day of the coup d'état arrived, Wang Chen believed that he would definitely be able to make Zhao Guangyi and Zhao Dezhao go down the drain and successfully push Zhao Defang to the throne as emperor!
