Chapter 64: Secret Intelligence
After recovering for a long time, the emperor's body has gradually improved, but the lost longevity cannot be regained, and the old appearance can no longer be recovered. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć The ministers were shocked to see the emperor's old age, and they were inevitably a little panicked in their hearts.
Come to think of it, this Central Plains is about to change color! Now that the emperor is seriously ill, he doesn't look as energetic as before, the eldest prince is in the limelight, but the crown prince is still nowhere to be found, the two popular heirs to the throne, and now only Wei Shenghao is left alone.
It's just that the change of things is really elusive, just when everyone is no longer hopeful, thinking that the prince has died tragically, Wei Shenglian and the crown princess Shen Yanjiao appeared in the capital in a high-profile manner.
"Rubbish! Rubbish! It's all rubbish! What is the use of me raising you? I can't even kill anyone, and I still let the family swagger back?! In a remote and dark room, Wei Shenghao, who was dressed in black robes, roared angrily, and he took a whip and slammed it towards a few people kneeling on the ground, it was the masked man in black who ambushed Wei Shenglian that day.
"Master spare your life! Master spare your life! The little one obviously saw that he had been poisoned by life-devouring, and the poisoned arrows were pierced into his shoulder blades! There is no solution, no one has solved this poison yet, he can't be alive! Please be clear, master! The leader was about to break his head, and he was in tears as he kowtowed.
Wei Shenghao glanced at him with disgust, and said viciously: "Impossible? I saw him come back with my own eyes, and I went into the palace to greet my father, could it be that I couldn't see it! There are not enough successes and more failures, and there are so many excuses! You said! Why isn't the old man dead? Now I'm alive again, and I've removed my position as a prisoner and gone to court myself! Aside from the fact that he looks a little older, what is the difference between him and before? Go back and tell the witch master, if you don't have the ability, don't praise yourself to the sky, what devours life and decay, it's all fake! Fake!! ā
Wei Shenghao was angry, and the people under him could only listen with fear, and when the whip was whipped on his body, he didn't even dare to hum.
It seemed that he didn't feel enough to relieve his anger, Wei Shenghao's whip became heavier and heavier, and the whole body of the man in black was already peeled open, and the blood stained his clothes, mixed with blood and stuck tightly to the skin.
"Give me a month of retreat in the Black Abyss, and don't come out until the time, otherwise I won't be killed!" In the end, Wei Shenghao put down the whip and said viciously.
When the leader and his subordinates heard the word Hei Yuan, their whole bodies trembled as if they were sifting chaff, and their faces were completely gray. This black abyss...... It's hell worse than death! But to go or not to go is a death, the master has always done what he says, in order to survive, they have to accept the promise and retreat.
Wei Shenghao, who returned to the mansion, received a secret letter from the Prime Minister's Mansion before his anger was eliminated, but this time it was not from a bird, but it was sent secretly by someone, and it was even more secret than before.
"Your Highness, Madame has suspected that there is a traitor in the house, so the slave family found a substitute ghost to temporarily dispel her suspicions...... It's just that Liang Feng is back, what can I do with the slave family's body? This is also His Highness's child! Your Highness, please help the slave family think of ideas! Lin Yan'er's eagerness can be seen between the lines, at this time, what she does may be exposed if she is not careful, and the excuse of illness is just a short-term escape from the problem, this belly will grow day by day.
Wei Shenghao sneered, this chess piece, just lose it after it is exposed, it's just ...... Thinking of this, he frowned slightly, this Lin Yan'er is so pregnant with his flesh and blood, if he has many children, he doesn't care about this one and a half, but the problem is that there is no child in the house now, so he is really reluctant to give up this one.
If you give birth to a son...... An illegitimate child is also a son, and when the time comes, he will be raised as a concubine under the name of the concubine, anyway, it is all his species, thinking of this, Wei Shenghao squinted his eyes and slowly calculated.
ā¦ā¦
After this difficulty, the emperor no longer trusts anyone, and he is poisoned every day in his diet, without interruption for ten consecutive years? Ten years! Not ten months, not ten days! What kind of scheming does this take, what kind of forbearance can it do? And it must be someone close to him! Who is it that has a deep hatred for him?
Lian'er? Hao'er? Concubine De? Eliminate all the suspicious people one by one, only these three people and the people who served by his side remained, his eyes were slightly dark, he replaced all the people who served around him, and all the food, clothing, housing and transportation were taken over by the personal guard, and began to investigate this matter, he was so bold that he planned to use ten years to kill a monarch, presumably this person must not be simple.
As for why even the micro-lotus that sent the antidote has to be checked, can't the person who sent the medicine be poisoned? So the antidote was sent in time, who knows if it was planned a long time ago and pinched this point in time? Although the throne will eventually be inherited by these two sons, it must not be the one who did such a thing as killing his father! Although the emperor is old, he is not confused, although he can't say that he has been a Ming monarch all his life, he is not a faint monarch.
After staying in the imperial study for a whole day and deploying everything, when he was about to go out to take a breath, he received a report from Shen Hong and Liang Yuan who came to ask to see him. The emperor originally felt tired, and the next time he met the two of them, he just listened to what the messenger said, and immediately invited the two to the imperial study with a solemn expression.
"The matter of the North and the South joining forces to invade the Central Plains will be met by people from the DPRK and China!" A short sentence, but it was like a shocking thunder in the emperor's mind, he has been on the throne for many years, and he didn't know that there were such people under him? !
Liang Yuan built an intelligence network in the two years when he walked the rivers and lakes, and after these years of precipitation and development, it has a certain scale, but it only collects information about national political dynamics, so in terms of influence, it is not as big as the star of the king of intelligence in the world, it is just a secret organization, but it has contributed a lot of useful information over the years, just like at this time, it has silently made a great contribution.
That stack of information was received shortly after Liang Yuan returned to Beijing, and it was sorted out a few days ago, and it was not sent until today, but this speed is already the fastest, the intelligence is very messy, and sometimes it will be mixed with some unnecessary things, they are going to show the emperor, and they can't even present things like eating and going to the toilet, right?!
That stack of letters is very thick, presumably the two sides have been in contact for a long time, and the end of the north-south rebellion that has been secretly planned for a long time seems to be hasty, and the hardships of Shen Hong, who is in the northern Xinjiang, if it weren't for Wei Shenglian just going, it is estimated that he is still in a stalemate there now, or has been defeated. But the battle of the Nanban ...... It's a bit weird. The emperor actually had a guess in his heart, but he was reluctant to believe it.
āā¦ā¦ Nanban really didn't fight hard, and 100,000 soldiers were hidden in the frontier...... "Seeing this, the emperor angrily slammed the information in his hand on the table, his face was flushed, and he almost couldn't breathe, and the startled Shen Hong and Liang Feng hurriedly got up and patted him on the back and breathed, if there was anything wrong with the anger, they would have to follow the funeral! Looking at the emperor, Shen Hong's brows furrowed slightly, the emperor is really old! Huh.
"Unfilial piety! Disrespect! What does he want to do?! Hiding soldiers? Does he still want to seek a usurpation of the throne? Evil creature! The Emperor breathed a sigh of relief, and said angrily, his anger churning in his chest, and he seemed to explode all over his body, and his whole body trembled.
Glancing at Liang Feng, Shen Hong shook his head helplessly, they could only wait for the emperor to calm down at the moment, if he stepped forward to persuade him, I am afraid that the opposite result would be achieved.
Fortunately, after being a superior for many years, the emperor's emotions were still well controlled, he slowly calmed down and no longer mentioned this matter, but turned his head to Liang Feng and said, "Feng'er, how long have you been following the general?" ā
Liang Feng looked at Shen Hong, and then said to the emperor: "Back to the emperor, Liang Feng has followed General Shen since he was a child, and now he has been more than 20 years. After hearing this, the emperor nodded, looked at Liang Feng carefully, and then continued: "Yes, it seems that I have learned a lot over the years, and now that you have defeated Northern Xinjiang, it can be regarded as giving us a long face in the Central Plains, I haven't rewarded you yet, say, what do you want?" ā
The two knelt down in fear and said: "It is our duty to be able to do things for all sexes, and we dare not ask for rewards!" ā
The emperor shook his head and said, "Since you don't say it, then I'll look at it myself, Shen Hong, you are already a general, and I don't know what else I can seal you, so I'll reward you with ten thousand taels of gold!" Over the years, I have neglected you, don't forget your heart; Liang Feng, I have named you the general of Dingyuan, and I hope that you will be able to loyally defend your family and the country in the future, and pay more for the people! ā
"Thank you, Emperor Longen! Long live the emperor, long live, long live! The two listened to the seal, but their hearts were full of surprise, the emperor's reward gave everyone what they needed, especially Liang Feng, he liked the army since he was a child, liked the bloody battlefield, he thought about it day and night, and thought that he could one day lead his own army, kill the enemy and leave no soldiers, and no one dared to defend the frontier.
After getting up, Liang Feng suddenly remembered that there was one more thing, he searched in the pile of information for a while, and finally found the small piece of paper and handed it to the emperor. At this glance, the emperor's face immediately turned pale.
āā¦ā¦ It is certain that the Qinglian Sect is indeed reborn in the world, and there is a rumor widely circulated in the market that the Qinglian Sect's comeback is actually intended to find out the cause of the death of the previous sect leader and avenge his death! ā
