Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Superior Doubts
This sentence in the mouth of Chief Manager Su made the king make up his final mind, and handed the yellow satin that General Manager Su had just written: "The curfew level has been raised to a first-class curfew, and we are now in the midst of a war." If you are not careful, Bo'an City will be gone, Bo'an City will be gone, and the whole Anyang will be gone. ”
Xiao Yangzi was behind the chief manager of Su, and whispered the words of Wang Shangcai, "Are you at war?"
"Tell Xiao Liuzi that no matter what, he must do everything he can to suppress tonight's troubles, otherwise tomorrow morning, Dali Temple Siqing will not be in charge. Send this royal decree to the three provinces, and you go in person, and pass on the message, and say that the widow asks for it, and just seal it directly, so as not to do other cumbersome things, and get it as soon as possible, and all the people who are on the streets tonight are giving all for this city. ”
The king explained the next thing to the general manager of Su, slowly leaned on the chair, stood up, and walked with his waist bowed. Tired: "Tonight, tired, go back to the dormitory to rest." ”
Without an old friend who is always by his side, he still left in such a poignant way, and in addition to sighing, he will also have a little reluctant memories to do.
Xiao Yangzi immediately stepped forward and helped the king to go back to the palace, but the king glanced at Xiao Yangzi's young face and said, "You kid, it's very good." ”
"Thanks, Your Majesty. ”
"Don't thank me for everything, just treat me as an elder in your family, and don't be restrained in front of me. ”
The king didn't use the "widow" to call himself a "widow" in front of Xiao Yangzi.
Xiao Yangzi was still cautious and said, "An, the king." ”
Laughed a few times by Xiao Yangzi's actions, Wang Shang said: "In the future, you will follow me." During this period, Wang Shang looked at the chief manager of Su, and the chief manager of Su nodded slightly, indicating that Xiao Yangzi could be trusted.
"Go ahead, I hope the sun will still rise tomorrow morning. ”
Chief Su disappeared in an instant, of course, with the royal decree that had just been written.
This was the first time in so many days that the king offered to go back to the palace to rest. People are not like this, spending their lives in the unknown. After knowing the time you have left, you will make good use of the time when every second decreases, and you can't wait to spend the time as a day.
In an instant, the governor of Su appeared in the three provincial departments outside the palace. The political center of the whole country began to work intensively. In less than half an hour, an official with a flattering smile on his face took out all the seals of the three provinces.
Since last night, all the civil officials in the DPRK and China have been in a very embarrassing state, because in essence, every civil official is a scholar, and it is the scholar who is making trouble in Bo'an City.
Therefore, at this time, no matter what the king's order is, none of the officials of the three provinces dare to question it, and they dare not reject the king's will, unless they really want to die. And at this time, the king will definitely not hesitate, agree to this polite request, and if you want to die, then die. And none of my colleagues dared to help say "no".
The officials on duty at night in the three provinces said with embarrassment: "Chief Su, this royal decree can be handled urgently, but the messenger of this message, this one really can't draw out manpower, and all the Wuhou and Tiger Ben troops tonight, including the messenger, have been transferred." If we rely on a few of us to read at this moment, go door to door to inform us, it will not be completed at dawn. ”
Mr. Su said seriously: "Just leave this matter to me, you just need to stamp the seal." ”
After handing it over, the chief steward of Su disappeared in place again, and the next place where he appeared was above the wall of the palace, and on the side was carved all kinds of beasts used to pray for blessings and suppress evil gods.
I didn't see Chief Manager Su speak, Chief Manager Su just closed his eyes, and in every corner of the entire Bo'an City, a slightly sharp voice could be heard instructing: "Tonight, people with ulterior motives are making trouble and disturbing the security of Bo'an City." In view of the safety of the people, the king decreed that the second-class curfew was upgraded to a first-class curfew, and any further violators were punished with death. ”
There is not much in one paragraph, but it reveals information that can change the current situation of the entire Bo'an City.
East Palace
The prince and the old man looked at each other, each full of heart.
The prince said first: "It's only the splashing skin in Dong City, as for raising the curfew level of Bo'an City? Father is really old, and he has some cups and snakes for the sake of power." ”
Lao Dao saw the situation clearly, touched his beard, and his eyes rolled wildly. Hurriedly said: "Every order of the king must be carefully considered, let alone such a tense moment. Therefore, at this opportunity, there must be other things, so that the king has to take out the last resort. ”
It just so happened that at this time, the news spies from the East Palace also returned, and they didn't even have time to give the gift of the audience, so they said when they entered the door: "Oh no, the students in Taixue learned that Scholar Chu Hao was arrested and imprisoned, and plotted to break into the palace tonight." I don't know who gave me the courage to really ask this group of people to rush from Xuanwu Avenue to the foot of the palace, and finally they were shot by all the Golden Dragon Guards and killed on the spot. ”
"You did it?"
The prince frowned and forced Lao Dao. But Lao Dao was also puzzled, and said to the prince: "The prince Shao'an is not impatient, at this time Poor Dao does not know, since it is a conspiracy, it seems that it is a matter of spontaneous organization of students, breaking into the palace is a big crime, and it is different from making trouble and protesting, it is completely a major matter of rebellion, even if I give me a hundred guts, Poor Dao will not dare to plan casually." ”
"The group of scholars has a special identity, and this matter is difficult to deal with whether it is the King of Wei, the King or His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Unless ......"
The prince doesn't like the old way, he always likes to talk halfway and sell off. Urging on the side: "Unless it's something, hurry up." ”
"Unless you don't do it, you don't do it. Anyway, the people in the entire Bo'an City thought that the prince planned it. The prince simply added fire to it, so that the group of scholars could completely break with the Wang Shang group. Let Anyang only recognize the prince, not the king. ”
Lao Dao's insidious suggestion made the prince also break out in a cold sweat behind his back.
"This is the last strategy of the strong crossbow, and until the end, you can't do this step. ”
The prince did not follow the advice of the old way, if he really followed the old way's plan, he would be charged with killing the king. For the prince, who has learned benevolence, righteousness, etiquette, wisdom and faith since childhood, it is not easy to do this.
Seeing that the spy had not been withdrawn, which meant that there was still something to report, the prince waved his hand and motioned for the spy to continue.
The spy said: "There was another fire in the West Market tonight, and most of the entire West Market has been caught in the fire. Wuhou, the fire army is no longer enough, if it is allowed to develop again, there will probably be one in ten in the entire West Market tomorrow morning. ”
The prince looked at the old man again, and the old man looked at the prince. A question was clearly expressed in the eyes of both of them: Did you do it?
The spy continued: "There is a secret pile in the palace to report through a secret letter, and there are still a large number of dead soldiers in the West Market tonight, killing the Marquis of Wu who is fighting the fire on the street. As a result, in the best time to fight the fire, most of the martial arts in the entire West City went to deal with the group of dead soldiers, and hundreds of casualties caused the fire to spread. I know I'm going to lose control now. ”
Lao Dao was about to collapse by this information, and said angrily: "What does the dead man have to do with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? ”
The spy looked at Lao Dao's swollen face, it must be a poor Taoist who ate the overlord's meal and was beaten out without giving money. I still wondered in my heart, why did the prince not have the supervision of Chu Hao's scholars, how could the people he made friends with become more and more low-end, and the lower nine could become the prince's friends.
was not frightened by the old attitude, but said in a tone of confrontation: "Among the corpses of the dead soldiers, there is a token of the East Palace that Wuhou turned out from it. ”
The prince sat down on the chair with his ass slumped, and kept repeating without thinking, "How can this be?
Lao Dao was sober, cleared his mind, and persuaded the prince: "His Royal Highness the prince, don't panic, although the high is suspicious." The manipulator behind the scenes is framed for the sake of framing, which is a bit of a problem. ”
"It's all at this time, who cares if he has painted a snake or not, tomorrow morning, the people on the street will say that I set fire to the West Market, I have maintained the image of Renjun for many years in the hearts of the people, and there is no room for failure. Xiao Liuzi's trick is really ruthless, this is called hurting the enemy by 1,000 and self-damage by 800. ”
The prince panicked, where is there any kingly demeanor. It's like a general who has lost a battle, and there is no hope for life.
Lao Dao looked at the appearance of the prince, and said angrily with a kind of rotten wood that could not be carved: "This matter can be delayed." "If it's still useless nonsense, you get out of here. ”
The prince was already flustered, and it was normal for him to be unscrupulous.
Lao Dao resisted the urge to beat the prince violently and said: "Now the king should be suspicious, but he has not been able to do this matter, so there is still room for relaxation, now His Royal Highness the prince, what you have to think about is not how to attack, but how to defend." The offensive and defensive roles have changed, and it is necessary to clarify the thinking. ”
"How's that to be?"
Lao Dao stared at the Donggong guards guarding the door, and said to the prince: "Doesn't His Royal Highness the Crown Prince still have an armed force that can be used? Now as long as all the Donggong guards are sent to the West City to rescue, the prince's devotion to Bo'an City can be revealed, and the doubts in the king's heart will become deeper and deeper, making the king wonder whether it was the King of Wei who framed him or His Royal Highness did it." ”
When Lao Dao spoke, the voices of all the Donggong guards became a little heavier.
"Clever move, brilliant trick. ”
The prince was immediately overjoyed, and hurriedly recruited the Donggong guards, and ordered to lead the Donggong guards to rush to the West City to put out the fire, and before the Donggong guards left, Lao Dao stopped everyone who was going forward, and said: "Poor Dao means all the Donggong guards, including the personnel who are on duty at night. Only in this way can His Highness's intentions be revealed. ”
Donggong Wei said angrily: "Without Donggong Wei, who can guarantee the safety of His Highness tonight." ”
Lao Dao twisted his beard and said, "Are you really just a traveling Taoist priest?"
Lao Dao released the aura in his body at this time, and the strength of the cultivators of the Destiny Realm was vividly displayed at this moment. A large amount of aura set off a nameless wind and dust swept around the old road.
In an instant, although his face still had the scars of being beaten by Jian Wu, Lao Dao immediately felt like a different person. At this moment, Lao Dao is no longer a poor Taoist who is looked down upon, everyone respects the strong, and the Lao Dao who shows all his strength immediately shocked everyone in the audience.
The spy who still looks down on the old way is the one who regrets it the most.
