Chapter 42 Planning
At that moment, she quietly jumped up and down the wall, crouching in the shadow of a magnolia tree. There is a window right overhead.
After a while, footsteps sounded in the room, and Shi Wenyuan's voice came: "What are you looking for me?" ”
"After Luo Dingshan came back, you avoided it. I want to see you, does it have to be something? ”
Yanran almost fell off the wall. It turned out to be the queen's clear voice! She desperately clasped her fingers against the mud pillars of the fence to stabilize her figure.
"Hmph, your little bit of fake heart, really I don't know? If it weren't for you, I would have ......"
"What a long time ago? A rebellion a long time ago? Mingyan's voice suddenly became sharp.
"Rebellion is rebellion! This country should have been my Shi Wenyuan's five years ago, it was you who fascinated me so much that I didn't care about serious things, and only thought about being with you for a long time. I would like to ask you now, are you using me or are you sincere? "Shi Wenyuan is aggressive.
"It's been five years, and you still don't understand my heart? I have abandoned the dignity of etiquette and religion, and I have abandoned everything, and I ...... with you Do you want to doubt my sincerity? ”
There was a moment of silence in the room.
Shi Wenyuan said again: "I don't doubt you, but your son has grown up and is becoming more and more difficult, let me tell you clearly, now I don't want to tolerate him!" ”
"You want to kill him? Do you want to take the Xuanyuan clan? Mingyan's voice trembled.
"You know very well, I've been five years late for this matter, and I don't want to wait any longer! If you are obedient, I will remember the affection between you and me for five years, and I will not treat you badly. If you turn to your son, you and I will cut off righteousness today. ”
"Wen Yuan! He's still a kid and he's still under your control, aren't you powerful enough now, and is there anyone more powerful in this country than you? Why bother to force each other to let everyone in the world know that you are cold-blooded and ruthless? ”
"Since ancient times, those who have become kings have been kings, and those who have lost have been coles, I want to be kings, and I will no longer compromise! I'll just say this here, you just go and tell Minglang, I'm not afraid. My 60,000 troops will soon be stationed at Luofengpo, just waiting for my orders to start. His voice suddenly sank: "Mingyan, over the years, I have also been sincere to you, otherwise I wouldn't have delayed you for five years." Be my queen and follow me now! ”
"I ...... The stakes are too great for me to consider. ”
"Five days, I'll only give you five days to think about it. Whether you agree or not, this throne, I will decide! After saying that, he heard the sound of the door opening, Shi Wenyuan went out and walked away in a hurry.
In the middle of the night, there was silence upstairs. Then there was a sound of soft footsteps, and a woman's voice said, "Queen Mother, let's drive back to the palace." ”
Ming Yan answered softly, was supported by the maid, got up and went downstairs.
Yanran watched the queen's palanquin walk away, and then quietly slipped down the wall. Follow the road back to the Bell Palace.
Minglang woke up from a nap and didn't see Yanran, he suddenly panicked, and it was inconvenient for him to go out, so he sent someone out to look for it, where to find it, he immediately wanted to find it himself, but was stopped by the guard in front of the door. was scolding the guards, and when he saw Yanran coming back, he lost his temper at all, so he pulled her into the room.
I was about to ask her where she had been for the past half the day, but when she saw that her face was not good, she panicked: "What's wrong with you?" Where is it uncomfortable? ”
Yanran pulled him into the room and closed the door.
"What did you run away from home for?"
Minglang didn't know why she suddenly asked this, hesitated for a while, and said, "You want to know, I won't hide it from you." I stumbled upon the Queen Mother and Shi Wenyuan...... Intimacy, this matter hit me hard, so I decided to leave. ”
Yanran nodded, and it was exactly as she expected! But instead of despising the explicit words, she felt an understanding and admiration in her heart.
"Minglang, don't blame your mother, she sacrificed too much for you......"
Ming Lang looked at her inexplicably, unable to understand her words.
Yanran told him what she had just seen. "I deduce that five years ago was when you were growing up and reasonable, and Shi Wenyuan was afraid that you would pose a threat to his powerful position, so he moved to usurp the throne. Your mother sensed his ambitions and had to sacrifice her life to deal with him...... The Xuanyuan family is thin, and you don't have a strong uncle to rely on, it's not easy for her to come all these years. If it weren't for her hard work, not only would your life be difficult to protect, but your Xuanyuan clan would also have a surname. ”
Minglang's heart was shocked, he had only known resentment and resentment for not abiding by women's morals and disrupting the court, but he didn't expect her to have good intentions. recalled Yanran's words and his own memories carefully, and was speechless for a while.
It turned out that she was struggling with him in order to paralyze him and disintegrate his ambitions, so as to repeatedly delay time and buy him as long as possible to grow up.
She never mentioned returning to him, which once made him secretly resentful, but now it seems that she definitely doesn't want to stimulate Shi Wenyuan, and moreover, it can create the illusion that he is incompetent, and further make Shi Wenyuan relax his vigilance, so as to save his life.
Only if he lives and becomes strong can he have the strength to resist rebellion and keep the country. The lonely queen mother is betting all her hopes on him.
The more he thought about it, the more he was shocked, the more he thought about it, the more he regretted it, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that everything was burned inside, and he hugged his head.
Yanran sat silently with him. This bitter, spicy, sweet and sour taste of life, he must taste it himself, digest and accept it.
I don't know how long it took, but a bright voice broke the silence in the room: "I am ashamed of the son of man, but I will not be ashamed of being the king again." I made a note of this hatred. Since he wants to do it, I will accompany him to see if my Xuanyuan Lang is really as incompetent and useless as he thinks! ”
Yan Ran looked at him happily and worriedly: "If you can think like this, the queen will definitely be happy." However, to deal with Shi Wenyuan, it is necessary to make a careful calculation. ”
"This matter is a long time, I will not be reckless. Girl, I'd like to hear your thoughts. ”
Yan Ran held his hand: "You first tell me about the layout of the imperial court's troops." ”
From Minglang's mouth, Yan Ran learned that the Chimelong Kingdom had a total of 80,000 troops, 10,000 garrisons, 10,000 guarding the capital, and the other 60,000 had been controlled by Shi Wenyuan. If Shi Wenyuan mobilized these 60,000 troops this time, he would clearly say that the mother and son would definitely be defeated.
"It's a tough one, but it's not hopeless, and the key is to plan well. The courtiers can't be counted on, so we can only rely on ourselves! ”
Minglang nodded, "Among the 60,000 troops, there are two lieutenant generals of Shi Wenyuan that I know, these two people, one is called Dong Xiao, one is Cui Huai, and the other deputy general is called Jiao Zhu, who belong to the neutral faction. To disintegrate Shi Wenyuan's strength, he must attack Dong Cui and the others. ”
Yanran held her head: "If you are unprepared, you need to grasp its weaknesses." What gaps do they have to break through? ”
Minglang's eyes lit up: "Disintegrate from within!" ”
