Volume 3 Chapter 12 The fog is full of water and water
"What do you want to do, Prime Minister? Do you want all our ministers to force the palace? Since time immemorial, only the traitorous minister would do such a thing, and I don't want to be a sinner in history. Shu Yu Shirt"
"I have four generations of loyalty, if the reputation of my four generations of loyalty is planted in my hands, I will not be at ease in my life."
"What about the four generations of loyalty? My ancestors were the founding heroes of the emperor, and if we do this, I am afraid that we will be dusted by our ancestors. ”
"Hmph, I have been trained since I was a child, and loyalty is our instinct as courtiers. I have been taught a lesson by my grandfather all my life since I was a child, and if I let my grandfather know that I betrayed the current emperor, I am afraid that I will be punished by the family motto. You must know that my family has its own set of ancestral teachings, and I am afraid that I will die without a corpse at that time. ”
What do you mean by that? That is, do you not agree with our betrayal of the emperor? If this is the case, then we will obediently wait for the crown prince to kill all our relatives, and then we will still be in a different place by taking advantage of the death of the eunuch. The prime minister frowned, then shook his head. At that moment, countless thoughts flashed in the prime minister's mind, and there were too many plans to resolve the current crisis, but they were vetoed by himself one by one. Only then did the prime minister realize that he was too far away from that person, and all his retreats had been sealed, leaving only the path of betraying the emperor.
"That's true, we can't."
"We will never be able to be a traitor, I can't do it, I can't be such a person."
"There's a lot of nonsense, can't you do it? All right, then I'll be what you call a traitor. As for you, don't talk nonsense, you all have swords on you to apologize for your sins. If I succeed in forcing the palace, the prince will naturally not let you go. And if I fail to force the palace, the emperor will naturally punish you. Since you want to be loyal ministers, don't dirty our emperor's hands, and now you will kill yourself. After the prime minister finished speaking, he threw his sword in front of the minister, and the bodies of all the ministers shook violently, and in the face of life and death, everyone can be calm.
"I gave up, I think the crown prince becoming the emperor is just around the corner, we don't have to struggle for anything."
"Too pedantic is just a joke in history, where there have been too many foolish and loyal people, and I have given up the foolish loyalty of those who have given up. After we are all loyal, we should save our lives to be loyal to the Dongying Dynasty, not just to the current emperor. Our lives belong to the Dongying Dynasty, so I have no objection to the proposal of the Great Prime Minister. ”
"That's what we think, stay in the green mountains without worrying about running out of firewood." It was only when all the ministers saw the sword that they really felt what death was. Those so-called loyalty, so-called benevolence and righteousness have become a thing of the past. The prime minister smiled bitterly, these things have become Dongying's ministers, I'm afraid that Dongying is already in danger. It's like an embankment full of ant nests, which can be shattered by a sudden torrent at any moment.
"Since there is no nonsense, then follow me into this palace, and you should know what to say." The prime minister really had mixed feelings in his heart, and he didn't know what to say for a while. The prime minister flicked his sleeves and patted the city gate directly to enter the palace. The guards in the palace began to draw their swords, and the walls of the palace began to be covered with soldiers, and the arrows and crossbows in their hands were pointed straight at all the chests.
The Imperial City Imperial Forest Army shouted loudly: "All the ministers, what do you want to do? You don't have the emperor's communication, do you want to force the palace? Rebels and thieves will be killed by random arrows, what do you want to do, ministers? ”
Those ministers were greedy for life and afraid of death, and they were so frightened by the sharp arrows that they didn't dare to speak for a while. I could only keep looking at the prime minister, and asked in a low voice: "The prime minister, we have no objection to letting us force the palace." But we are all civil servants. All of us were powerless, and we were bare-handed. Do you want us to break down the gates with our bare hands? I'm afraid that it will be splashed with blood, and it will not even be possible to see the emperor's face. ”
"You listen to me, my prime minister is here, everyone will open the door for me obediently." The prime minister showed his waist card and wanted to use his waist card to force the palace.
"Prime Minister, we all know you. But you haven't received the emperor's notice, but you want to enter this imperial city, I'm afraid you have a bad intention. The commander of the Imperial Forest Army had a frosty face, and the arrows in his hands were ready to strike.
"Okay, then you guys listen, we're all here to force the palace. We want to enter the palace and let the emperor abdicate to the crown prince now, how about it. After the prime minister said this, all the ministers began to complain in their hearts. When the prime minister said this, he undoubtedly hit the muzzle of the gun. At this time, it seems that there is no need for the prince to do it, and there is no need to kill himself and have ten thousand arrows piercing his heart.
"Hmph, it's really a bunch of rebellious thieves. Fortunately, since ancient times, the emperor has arranged for our imperial forest army to guard the imperial city, otherwise you wolf ambitions would have succeeded. Everyone obey the order, give it to me..."Before the commander of the Royal Forest Army finished speaking, he saw a blood mark appear on his neck, and the blood could not stop spurting out like a rushing river.
The ministers who had closed their eyes and waited for death to open their eyes without feeling the pain, but they saw a terrible scene: all the necks of the Guards had been cut by something invisible, and no one knew what had cut their necks open, or what was going on in front of them.
I saw that the gate of the imperial city to defend against foreign enemies made a screeching sound and slowly opened, as if to welcome all the ministers to enter.
"What the hell is going on? How did all those Guards die? Who did this to you? ”
"Who is it? The hero showed up, and the hero who saved our lives showed up. The ministers began to roar towards the gates and walls, apparently trying to find out who had killed the Guards, but in fact they were afraid that there was a trap inside.
"Hmph, I'm really ashamed to be in the company of you. Can't you see it yet? The crown prince can silently abduct all our relatives, so what is the difficulty of killing these guards from behind? ”
"Does the prime minister mean that the prince has helped us clear the obstacles? It seems that the crown prince has expected that we will force the palace, the wisdom of the prince is far beyond our reach, and it is a wise choice for us to surrender to the prince. The words of complimenting the prince were endless, and the prime minister kept secretly scolding this group of ministers for their shameless behavior, but it was human nature to be helpless and afraid of death.
"Let's go, the prince is waiting for our loyalty by the emperor's side, and it is better to show his loyalty in this than to be a loyal dog in front of the prince." After finishing speaking, the prime minister walked towards the deepest part of the palace without looking back, and all his fame will be smeared with a layer of black, and he will also be classified as a sinner by history. On the contrary, the ministers who were against the water felt that their actions were justified, and their actions suddenly became righteous. The Emperor Dongying is also afraid of death to the extreme, and the number of this Imperial Forest Army is as many as 100,000, hiding in various parts of the palace waiting for the emperor's orders. This group of Imperial Forest soldiers trained day and night, and the only one who could send them was the emperor.
However, the prime minister ran directly to the palace as if no one was in a no-man's land, but all the ministers were frightened, for fear that they would suddenly kill a royal forest army. This group of timid ministers were afraid that as long as one Imperial Forest Army could kill a piece of armor, some timid ministers asked in a low voice: "Prime Minister, you should be a little slower." The day hasn't passed yet, and if we suddenly kill a Royal Forester, we'll have a chance to dodge or something. ”
"You're cowardly and stupid. Don't you look at the fact that there is already a river of blood in this imperial city, where will there be a living person here? The prime minister seemed to have lost the last bit of patience with the ministers, and his tone became extremely vicious. All the ministers are now frightened birds, let alone seeing the Imperial Forest Army, and now the prime minister's loud shout has scared this group of rats into shrinking their heads.
The ministers shut up completely, and the corpses along the way covered the entire road, and they crossed in horror. The ministers didn't know whether they didn't dare to speak or were so afraid that they didn't even have the strength to speak, so they all despised and supported and followed behind the prime minister.
The palace was close at hand, and the prime minister did not hesitate to step into the palace, which frightened the emperor. The emperor was standing next to the prince, and all the ministers saw that the prince's eyes had become red, and now they wanted to lie on the ground and lick the prince's toes to show their loyalty.
"Prime Minister, why are you rushing here so vigorously?" The emperor was still kept in the dark, and his tone towards the ministers was still very good, I was afraid that after knowing that this group of wolf-hearted things came to force the palace, the emperor would be so angry that he would die immediately.
After the emperor said this, all the ministers didn't know what to say, looking at the emperor's appearance, he was originally bent on forcing the palace to achieve it, but he just threw his eyes on the prime minister for help.
"What the hell do you want to say? Why are you talking about it, Prime Minister, you are the head of all the ministers, you tell me what the hell is going on. The emperor vaguely sensed that something was wrong, and his voice became fierce.
The prime minister took a step forward and said loudly: "Back to the emperor, my prime minister has something to report to the emperor today." The prince is brutal and violent on weekdays, and he is even more preyman, and all our ministers hope that the emperor will abolish the prince. ”
