"The planning of things has to start from the reign of the first emperor, when the emperor did not care about political affairs, and all major affairs of the court and government were decided by the prime minister. But the fact that the emperor ignored the government does not mean that he is mediocre. In order to prevent the Wen family from becoming dominant and controlling the government, the emperor supported my Liang family to fight against the Wen family. Speaking of this, Liang Qian smiled.

"Kedignified Wen family, a wealthy family that has produced four great ministers and five generations of emperors, although my Liang family is a big family in the capital, how can I have the strength to compete with it. Fortunately, with the help of the first emperor, some things will pass if you turn a blind eye. My Liang family has also begun to grow slowly, and many new magnates in the court have received my favor. Naturally, the power of the feet began to take shape. ”

When it came to the first emperor Kuang Ren, Liang Qian's face was full of awe, as if Kuang Ren was not the mediocre and incompetent emperor in people's eyes.

"The first emperor's methods are really powerful, when my Liang family expanded, the Wen family did not move at all. I know that it was because of the first emperor that Wen could only stare dryly. ”

"I thought that Wen Dao had a false reputation, but he was just an old man, but now that I think about it, I was so wrong. Speaking of this, Liang Qian looked at Han Ming.

"Do you know why the Wen family moved back to Dongjun?"

"Filial piety for Wendao?" Han Ming said tentatively. Liang Qian's words made him smell a trace of unusual breath.

"Hehe, keep filial piety? Why do you need the whole family to move together. Wen Dao knew that I was going to start an incident, and the Wen family only had the foundation of Wenchen in the court. He knew that if I sent troops, he would not be able to stop me, and he would move back to Dongjun, but he would only be the king of the rebels. ”

"Then if you set up a new emperor, what will happen to the Wen family?" Han Ming asked rhetorically.

Hearing Han Ming's inquiry, Liang Qian smiled slightly, "Do you know why Kuang Zhi left Beijing in the first place?"

"Could it be related to Wen Xiang?" Han Ming said with a frown.

"At the beginning, King Fu Kuang Guang proposed to send Kuang Zhi to the foreign office, His Majesty was a little hesitant, or Wen Dao said to help, and the matter could be done. Come to think of it, Kuang Zhi's departure from Beijing is the handwriting of Wendao. Its purpose is to raise the new emperor again and compete with me. Wendao, unfathomable. ”

Hearing Liang Qian say this, Han Ming figured out a lot of the original doubts.

Later, after the power of the court was divided by the Wen family, the number of times the first emperor went to the court became less and less, and he basically did not go to the court later. I thought that things would develop like this, and I was satisfied, but I didn't expect that Your Majesty would take care of the government. ”

Speaking of this, Liang Qian sighed, "Your Majesty is in charge of the government at the age of a weak crown, I thought that Your Majesty would be overstretched, but I didn't expect Your Majesty to be very smart, often ask Wen Xiang and me for handling opinions, and learn quickly." Counting up, Your Majesty is still me and Wen Xiang watched grow up step by step. But this person is hard to resist the temptation of power. Your Majesty is growing day by day, and constantly weakening my power, at that time, I have been blinded by power, and I have long been unable to distinguish between east and west. ”

Han Ming didn't say a word on the side, and listened quietly.

"It just so happened that His Majesty was weak at that time, so I asked people to secretly tell Your Majesty that Tianxin Grass can change his physique, and I just mentioned it at the beginning, after all, it was just a rumor, no one would take it seriously, even if Your Majesty had an idea, he would be stopped by Wen Xiang. But what I never expected was that His Majesty really secretly went to find Tianxin Grass and brought you back by the way. ”

"I've read a book, and it introduces that Tianxin grass does have the effect of making people physically strong, eliminating all kinds of diseases, and changing their physique. Han Ming said puzzled.

"Indeed, there is this effect, but the record in the book is incomplete, this effect of Tianxin Grass, it must be combined with the fire lotus to condition the body of a weak person like a strong person, if you use Tianxin Cao directly, it will enter the body strongly, hurt the internal organs, and it is not possible to diagnose the cause. ”

"I guess your plan is not just Tianxincao. Han Ming said suddenly.

"Yes, that's right, Tianxin Grass is just an introduction. His Majesty was in poor health, and after succeeding to the throne, he worked day and night, which made His Majesty's hidden illness even more serious. I also suggested to Wen Xiang that he should set up a marriage for His Majesty. Speaking of this, Liang Qian shook his head. "But our majesty has turned a blind eye to beauties, and is dedicated to government affairs. ”

"During the reign of the First Emperor, did you do the several rebellions?" Han Ming asked with a cold face.

"It's not all, it's mainly natural disasters. I just added fuel to the fire, Your Majesty is not in good health, and suddenly heard of the rebellion, so I am naturally exhausted. However, the first drought was perfectly resolved by you. During the second Yokogawa flood, I sent people to secretly help the situation to further escalate the situation. In fact, I have no objection to Your Majesty, but I just think that if Your Majesty is weak, I will let go of power. But I underestimated Your Majesty. ”

Han Ming said in an unkind tone: "I guessed that if it was only those rebels, they would not be the opponents of the regular army anyway. But they were able to inflict heavy losses on the officers and soldiers one after another, if it weren't for the support of someone behind them, I really couldn't understand it, if my guess was correct, the one you sent to support them was the old man who shot at me at the altar of heaven. ”

"You guessed it right, his name is Lao Hei, and he has been with me for forty years, and I can only rest assured if he does this. ”

When Liang Qian mentioned Lao Hei, he had an inexplicable sense of sadness, after all, he had been with him for so many years, and he didn't end up well.

"I wondered, what did you get for helping the rebels?

When he mentioned this, Liang Qian didn't want to speak, as if it was difficult for him to talk about it.

"In my opinion, you helped the rebels and let the rebels defeat the regular army one after another, so that Your Majesty would aggravate Your Majesty's condition after hearing these news. If my guess is correct, the mutiny that occurred in Linlang County was also your ghost. ”

After being silent for a while, Liang Qian nodded.

"Alas......" then sighed heavily, "I thought that the planning would be seamless for many years." I never thought that the emperor had already arranged a Gonggong Cao. That's a Battle Qi Grandmaster!"

He glanced at Han Ming, "Even if you didn't come, with this Battle Qi Grandmaster, in such a short distance, even if I had thousands of troops, I would be caught at the first time, and in the end, I would fall short." Emperor, old minister...... served. ”

"Phew, do you still dare to mention Kuang Ren's Majesty? Gray-haired old thief, do you know that the first emperor planned for the people and the livelihood of Zhongchu Cang, but dared to do such a big rebellious thing for a day without working hard? Waiting for ten thousand deaths is not enough to atone for his sins, when he is in the land of the Nine Secluded Places, he suffers from the pain of skinning and dismantling tendons, the punishment of chewing bones and crushing skulls, covering his body with boiling oil, and adding his body with an axe blade, so as to comfort the soul of the first emperor. ”

After Han Ming said this, the wardens outside the cell shivered a little when they heard it.

When Liang Qian heard this, he was also cold, as if he was dead.

After waiting for a while, he suddenly knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing in the direction of the palace. While kowtowing, he repented: "I am guilty, and I deserve death for my sin." ”

"Ten thousand deaths? Hmph, ten thousand deaths are not enough to get rid of the crime. With that, he walked straight out of the cell.

On the way home, Han Ming thought about something.

There is no shortage of evil in this world, especially when it comes to politics, and darkness can be seen everywhere.

Kuang Hua is gone, and he will not allow any more evil to invade Kuang Yue. He secretly swore that the darkness that enveloped the Empress would be dispelled by him.

......

In a small border town in the easternmost part of Central Chu, visitors from three different identities appeared, and they walked into a small courtyard and began to discuss some unknown conspiracies.

Han Ming returned home, and before he could enter the house, Ye Die ran out and hugged Han Ming.

"Childe, you're finally back. ”

"What's wrong, what's going on?" Han Ming asked suspiciously, not knowing what had happened at home since he went out.

"I heard in the morning that there was a plot to rebel, and now that the whole city has been blocked, I see soldiers coming and going on the roadside, and Daddy and I have been worried about you. ”

Hearing Ye Die's concern, Han Ming hugged her tightly.

"Silly girl, am I so easy to have an accident? The high priest once said that I am the savior of Zhongchu, how can there be a savior who dies young. ”

Ye Die was amused by what Han Ming said, and gave him a blank look, probably because he felt that Han Ming was too loud and dared to call himself the savior of Zhongchu.

"You, just tell me, don't talk nonsense when you go out. ”

Han Ming also knew that Ye Die didn't believe it, and he didn't explain much, so he took Ye Die's hand and walked towards the courtyard.
