Chapter 158: Get rid of King Yu

The atmosphere of the banquet seemed a little stiff, Nangong Ling looked at Nangong Yu with a sharp edge, and he also replied with a cold gaze, not afraid at all, the hostility between each other gradually revealed, half a ring, only to hear Nangong Ling sneer, fingers playing with marigold, and said meaningfully: "It seems that over the years, those hardships have made Brother Wang grow a lot, and he is no longer an ignorant and helpless teenager, but people will grow faster through continuous experience, and I plan to fulfill my brother's responsibilities, I will definitely not disappoint Brother Wang."

Nangong Yu hooked the corners of his mouth, looked at Nangong Ling with disdain and said lightly: "That minister will definitely not disappoint the emperor, but the emperor has all the opportunities to manage government affairs day and night, worry about the country and the people, and also need to pay attention to taking care of the dragon body, the gate of Yuwang's mansion, and waiting for the emperor at any time."

Nangong Ling snorted coldly and said, "There is no need for Brother Wang to worry about it, Brother Wang should still care about himself first."

"The minister remembers the emperor's teachings", Nangong Yu raised his hand, the disdain on his face was even stronger, and then he glanced at the red sandalwood gilt square table, and said with a faint smile: "Today's family banquet has been enjoyed by the ministers, there are still some things in the house, if the emperor does not order, the ministers will retire first", as soon as the words fell, without waiting for Nangong Ling to speak, he got up and walked towards the outside of the hall.

Nangong Ling looked at Nangong Yu's back as he walked away, his slender fingertips clenched together, his eyes suddenly became a little colder, Nangong Yu, if it weren't for the banquet that summoned you today, I really didn't know that you were arrogant to the point of being so arrogant, if I continue to tolerate you, one day, you will be the one sitting on this dragon chair.

He half-narrowed his eyes, and it wasn't until Nangong Yu walked out of the Chengfu Hall that Nangong Ling summoned Xiao Lingzi and ordered in a deep voice: "Immediately order Han Shiming, the governor of the Imperial Forest Army, and Jiao Guanghai, the commander of the Black Dragon Iron Cavalry, to come to the imperial study to see me."

Xiao Lingzi was stunned, didn't dare to answer, and quickly withdrew from the hall after receiving the order, the scorching sun is scorching today, and there are no clouds, but the atmosphere in the hall is chilling from the bottom of the heart, and the back is cold, the emperor and King Yu are both the sons of the first emperor, and the blood is thicker than water.

In the imperial study, Han Shiming and Jiao Guanghai stood quietly under the dragon case, with solemn expressions, Nangong Ling sat on the dragon chair, holding a letterhead in his hand, looked at the two and said in a deep voice: "This is the letter written by Nangong Yu to Xiao Tian of Luchang County, you two take a look."

Xiao Lingzi beside him handed the letterhead to Han Shiming and Jiao Guanghai, and after the two read it, Han Shiming's forehead was slightly sweating, obviously shocked, "Your Majesty, is this letter true?" The words in this article reveal the meaning of rebellion, with the cautious character of King Yu, how can he be so careless"?

Jiao Guanghai fell into deep thought, he had fought against the enemy with King Yu, and got along in the military camp for a while, with his understanding of Nangong Yu, this person was extremely cautious, even if it was a small thing, it had to be flawless, almost perfect, not to mention such a rebellious letter, how could it fall into the hands of the emperor so lightly?

Nangong Ling snorted coldly, her sharp eyes deepened, "I recognize his handwriting, and it was written by him, can it be fake?" As the saying goes, if you don't get your shoes wet when you stand by the river, no matter how cautious he is, there should always be a time when he stumbles."

Jiao Guanghai, who was silent for a while, frowned slightly and said: "If King Yu really has the intention of rebelling, the preparations in the past few years should be enough, but now, he is still in the capital, which is incomprehensible."

Han Shiming also felt that what Jiao Guanghai said made sense, nodded again and again, and continued: "Having said that, however, Weichen learned that King Yu left Beijing at dawn for several days and returned late at night, and Weichen sent spies to investigate, but he actually went to Yingdu, I don't know if it has anything to do with this matter?"

Nangong Ling was stunned for a moment, then looked at Han Shiming with heavy eyes and asked, "You said that he has left Beijing repeatedly in the past few days?"

"There is indeed such a thing, as for what King Yu went to Yingdu to say, Weichen doesn't know, after all, Yingdu belongs to the jurisdiction of King Yu, he has always acted cautiously, as soon as he entered Yingdu, he got rid of Weichen's spies, however, there is something I don't know if the emperor knows, it is from Yingdu, saying that King Yu privately raised troops and rebelled."

"What"? As soon as she heard this, Nangong Ling suddenly stood up and looked at Han Shiming with a cold gaze, "Is there such a thing?" Why didn't I hear any wind?"

Jiao Guanghai had a rough face and the appearance of a military general, and when he heard Han Shiming's words at this time, he was also extremely surprised, looked at him and shouted: "Fart, where did you hear these words?" Don't talk nonsense, there is not even the slightest rumor in the capital for such a big thing, you just said that if King Yu really has the intention of rebellion, why is he still in the capital"?

Han Shiming glared at Jiao Guanghai and shouted not to be outdone: "These are what the spies heard when they went to Yingdu, according to the spies, the streets and alleys of Yingdu are all talking about this matter, is it possible that my spies will still lie to me?"

Jiao Guanghai rolled his eyes at Han Shiming, and was about to speak, only to hear Nangong Ling say in a deep voice: "If it is really as Han Qing's family said, Nangong Yu has been running around with Yingdu for several days, he must have blocked this news and prevented it from reaching the capital, but, with the character of King Yu, if he really wants to rebel, how can everyone who shouts it know?" I'm afraid that someone is doing something behind my back, but it is in line with my heart, and this letter and the rumors of Yingdu will make King Yu unable to escape the death penalty."

As soon as the words fell, the corners of his mouth hooked up a victorious smile, and his handsome face also showed a smug look, it was really nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it took no effort to get it, Nangong Yu, your death time has arrived.

When Jiao Guanghai heard Nangong Ling's words, he always felt that something was wrong in his heart, and suddenly looked at Nangong Ling and said: "Your Majesty, Weichen feels that this matter is wrong, King Yu has always been in peace in the capital, behaved perversely, and has never had a grudge against others, this matter is obviously aimed at King Yu, spreading rumors is certainly not good for King Yu, but for whom, the emperor has ideas"?

Nangong Ling was slightly stunned, and the smile on the corner of her mouth gradually receded, "You mean to say that you will reap the benefits of the fisherman"?

Jiao Guanghai nodded and said: "King Yu's prestige in Jin Xi has not diminished for many years, the lore iron cavalry he led back then was not inferior to the black dragon iron cavalry, and even the blue out of the blue and better than the blue, to put it mildly, the frontier has been stable for many years, in addition to the prestige of the black dragon iron cavalry, it is more of the lore iron cavalry of King Yu, and the king of Yu is brave and good at fighting, and has the name of one as ten thousand on the battlefield.

As soon as Jiao Guanghai's voice fell, Han Shiming took over and continued: "If it is really as Jiao Guanghai said, there are many doubts in this matter, and it needs to be considered in the long run."

Nangong Ling frowned, and when she heard the words of the two, her face suddenly became angry, and she reprimanded coldly: "You mean that if Jin Xi loses Nangong Yu, there will be chaos?" Don't forget, I am the emperor of Jin Xi, and even big countries like Canglan and Dongshuo pay tribute to me every year, not to him Nangong Yu, how can you two grow his majesty and destroy the majesty of me"?

Han Shiming and Jiao Guanghai saw that the emperor was angry, and immediately knelt on the ground, and said repeatedly: "Weichen lost his words, and the emperor forgives his sins."

"Regardless of whether this matter is true or not, Nangong Yu will not be able to get rid of it, I will not be able to rest assured for a day, Han Shiming, you immediately dispatch the Imperial Forest Army, the whole city will be under martial law, especially the Yuwang Mansion, surround me, Jiao Guanghai, you send the Black Dragon Iron Cavalry to Yingdu secretly, don't enter the city, only surround Yingdu on the periphery, even if Nangong Yu really raises soldiers privately, I will come to an urn to catch turtles, so that he can ask for heaven and not earth."

In a blink of an eye, Nangong Ling looked at Xiao Lingzi and ordered: "Summons Prime Minister Liu Cheng and Yin Mingshan, the commander of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion, and the squire of the military department, Zhongcheng, to come to the imperial study."

After Xiao Lingzi withdrew from the imperial study, Han Shiming and Jiao Guanghai glanced at each other, and saw helplessness in each other's eyes, the reason why the emperor took great pains to get rid of King Yu was nothing more than that King Yu's prestige overshadowed the emperor's dragon might, and the emperor was worried about the country and the people, but he was not as popular as King Yu's several battles that year.

Including the civil and military officials, they also have admiration for King Yu, King Yu has already submitted military talismans, and has been guarding himself for many years, but the emperor has been constantly looking for King Yu's handle, playing all kinds of scheming and means, these officials are in their eyes, and they have already had a whisper to the emperor, but no one dares to mention it.

Han Shiming even thought that Jiao Guanghai's words just now were quite reasonable, thinking about it carefully, this matter was definitely not so simple, but the emperor was angry, if he said more, I am afraid that the emperor would be angry and would classify him as King Yu**, and the consequences would be unimaginable, so he kept his mouth shut immediately.

Jiao Guanghai wanted to speak, but Han Shiming kept holding his hand, he also knew in his heart that the emperor regarded King Yu as a thorn in his side, and he had already intended to eradicate it, and finally caught King Yu's handle, such a good opportunity The emperor will never let it go, it is useless for him to say more.

Seeing that the two of them were no longer talking, Nangong Ling waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "You go down and prepare, you must be cautious, don't show flaws, think that King Yu has already left the palace, without further ado, you go quickly."

"Yes, Your Majesty, Weichen retires", after Han Shiming and Jiao Guanghai received the order, they got up and withdrew from the imperial study.

Not long after, Prime Minister Liu Cheng, Yin Mingshan, Zhong Cheng hurried to the imperial study, Nangong Ling also showed the three of them the letterhead of Nangong Yu's rebellion, because the three of them met Han Shiming and Jiao Guanghai when they came, the two of them briefly explained the emperor's meaning, the three of them knew it, and thought a lot along the way, but this time the emperor was very resolute in eradicating King Yu's heart, if he said too much, he was afraid that the emperor would be guilty, and after hearing the emperor's explanation, the three of them did not dare to say anything.

"Yin Mingshan".

"Weichen is here", Yin Mingshan immediately knelt on the ground and waited for Nangong Ling's orders.

Nangong Ling's eyes were sharp, and he said in a deep voice: "All the soldiers of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion are on guard, waiting for my order, and then go to King Yu's Mansion to get people."

"Zhong Cheng, I order the Imperial Forest Army to guard the whole city, you lead the troops to guard the four corners of the city gate, and don't let anyone suspicious go."

"Weichen obeys the order", Zhongcheng also knelt on the ground, respectfully receiving the order.
