Chapter Twenty-Nine: Killing
Qiu Feng saw King Rui's solemn expression, and said again: "As for the safety of the Queen Mother, Your Highness doesn't have to worry. We know the importance of the Queen Mother to Her Royal Highness, and she will not act recklessly. The Lingshan Gang has also thought of countermeasures, and the Queen Mother will only be safer in the future. ā
King Rui closed his tired eyes, as if he was thinking about something, and when he raised his eyes again, his eyes were already clear. "You mean to use the Queen Mother to contain this king?"
Qiu Feng raised his eyebrows slightly, with a slightly surprised look in his eyes, and couldn't help but secretly wonder in his heart: I thought that this Liang Yinhuan would reprimand himself for this matter, but I didn't expect that Liang Yinhuan had already seen through their intentions, and it seemed that he was not too stupid. After a while, Qiu Feng smiled and flattered: "Your Highness is really smart, it is best for Your Highness to be able to figure it out." ā
Liang Yinhuan felt a hot feeling suddenly rise in his heart, but his body felt a little chilly, stabilized his mind, and said slowly: "The Lingshan Gang has worked hard for my affairs, I shouldn't blame you for anything, it's just..."
"It's just that His Royal Highness disdains to be a scheming person who strives for power and profit, and doesn't want to use the safety of his relatives as a bet in the fight." Qiu Feng indifferently played with the teacup in his hand, as if he didn't care, "I said when I was in the Yanyu Building, we will complete all the dark and despicable things for His Highness, but the world is unpredictable, if it is really a last resort, His Highness should still make a judgment, don't be emotional." ā
Qiu Feng's words Liang Yinhuan didn't understand, nor did he disagree, but the more he understood, the more he felt that it made sense, and the more indescribably confused his heart became. After a while, he said quietly: "I'm afraid that the matter of the Queen Mother is only one of the reasons, but it is not enough to completely convince the emperor to leave this king behind, how did you do it?" ā
"The Ministry of War secretly hides and sells weapons, and such a ridiculous and terrifying thing has happened, Liang Yinhao must have doubts. But when it comes to the biggest hero, it is thanks to Prime Minister Huo Cheng's help. Qiu Feng smiled strangely, and the sly light flashed in his eyes.
The Sichuan character between King Rui's eyebrows was even more profound, and he said incredulously: "How is it possible, how can he help this king." The king heard that day in the court, and the emperor did not hesitate to fight with Huo Pei'an because of this matter! ā
"The more Huo Pei'an opposes, the more it is equivalent to helping His Highness!" Qiu Feng's words are like the cold and cool lake water in late autumn, which makes people's hearts sink. "The emperor and Huo Xiangming are in harmony on their faces, but in fact, they already have a dislike in their hearts. If Huo Pei'an hadn't strongly opposed His Highness's stay in Beijing, how could the emperor suspect that Huo Xiang had other plans, and he would have made up his mind to leave His Highness behind? ā
After listening to all the words, King Rui was silent for a long time, got up and walked slowly to the window, looking at the daylight in full bloom. But as everyone knows, the prosperity tends to decay, and the splendid pole returns to extinction.
"Relationships built because of interests will eventually collapse because of interests." King Liang Jiurui said in a deep voice, "By the way, this king also said last time that I want to see your helper in person. After all this time, the news of the gentleman must have reached the top, right?"
"How dare the villain not take His Highness's request to heart? Naturally, it has already been reported to my helper. However, the helper was busy today, and it was not appropriate to meet in the prince's mansion after all, so he couldn't come. Qiu Feng said respectfully, "But the helper has also made arrangements, I wonder if His Highness can meet the helper in Fengshan in Beijing in three days?" ā
Maple Mountain? King Rui wondered in his heart, the Lingshan Gang has always acted strangely, and even the venue for the meeting is more and more unexpected every time, this time it was chosen in the remote and uninhabited mountains and forests of the capital, what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd? He scrutinized the other man's expression, hoping to find some clues, but he didn't see anything wrong. "Good! Go back and tell your helper, that in three days the king will come to the appointment. ā
"It's not too early, so I won't bother Your Highness in the next place, and I'll retire first." Qiu Feng bowed down and took the order. When he walked to the door of the room, Qiu Feng's eyes rolled around, and he turned to Rui Wang and said, "That's right." Fengshan is far away and remote, and I heard that there are many wild beasts in this season, so His Royal Highness can bring more guards and cronies in Xiajian YƬ, just in case. ā
Qiu Feng's words are rather strange, Fengshan is located on the outskirts of the capital, and although it is hot and remote, he has never heard of a giant beast infesting it. Even if there were, why did you choose to be there if it was a place where wild beasts frequent? Too many questions were accumulated in his heart, and King Rui just wanted to ask something more, but the man in front of him had long since disappeared-
In the Prime Minister's Mansion, Ting Yi walked quickly in the direction of the study. He is a close confidant of Prime Minister Huo Pei'an, responsible for collecting requests from all over the place, and his subordinates have privately raised a group of dead soldiers, and they are ready to remove some obstacles for Huo Pei'an when necessary.
In the study, Huo Pei'an sat in front of the table and stared at the fold in his hand, the cold light in his eyes was like a sharp knife. Ting Yi whispered: "My lord, my subordinates have received the news that King Rui has moved into the mansion today, except for Lord Wei and Master Tong of the Criminal Department, the other officials of the court and China have gone to visit him to congratulate him. The eyeliner subordinates around Rui Wang have also been arranged. ā
Huo Pei'an's eyes were gloomy, and a cold light condensed in his clear eyes, and he said slowly after being silent for a long time: "Hmm." If there is any movement in the Ruiwang Mansion, report it immediately. In addition, you arrange a group of dead soldiers to obey orders at any time! ā
Ting Yi couldn't help but be stunned and asked, "Is your lord trying to kill King Rui?" ā
The corners of Huo Pei'an's mouth curved, with a terrifying chill. "King Rui has to die, but not now, Benxiang will keep his life for the time being. The top priority is to get rid of that Wei Ming as much as possible! ā
Ting Yi couldn't help but be taken aback, "Your Excellency is saying... Wei Ming, the Minister of the Zhongshu Order? ā
"Yes, the prime minister didn't take him to heart, because he was old and frail, and he couldn't have the emperor's heart. However, this person has recently opposed Benxiang everywhere in the court, and he has even had the intention of sowing discord between Benxiang and the emperor. I don't know what kind of curse Wei Ming put on the emperor, but now the emperor's trust in his true appearance is not as good as before. Wei Ming really couldn't stay any longer. Huo Pei'an said coldly, thinking of Wei Ming's appearance when he humiliated him in public in the court, Huo Pei'an gritted his teeth slightly with hatred.
Ting Yi hesitated: "But after all, he is a first-class official of the imperial court, and he has been gifted by the emperor, and his position in the court is very important." Let's kill him when we say kill? ā
Huo Pei'an's eyes were like snow, and he said in a very slow voice: "Capture the thief and capture the king first, and kill the chicken to honor the monkey!" Since you want to warn, of course, you must choose the biggest start for the official position! The true appearance must be known to everyone, but anyone who opposes me Huo Pei'an has only one way to die. ā
"But as soon as Wei Ming dies, the emperor will definitely suspect that you did it, I'm afraid..."
"Afraid of what? There is no empirical evidence, even if the emperor has doubts, there is no way to take the true picture. Moreover, this dragon chair of the emperor was taken by Benxiang for him, Benxiang has the ability to help him up, and naturally he also has the ability to knock him down, he doesn't dare to do anything to Benxiang! ā
