Chapter 125: Five Kills!
Since the new room replaced the Han Dynasty, Wang Yan, the head of the Huang royal family, is like Boyi Shuqi who is guarding Shouyang Mountain, easily not stepping out of the Ding'an Pavilion, and often wears plain clothes, as if he is guarding filial piety for the Han family. When you are lonely, at most, let the palace people let go of a flying kite, stand on the ground and look up at it flying higher and higher, but they can never get rid of the thin line.
But February of the second year of the emperor was very special, she had to leave the house again and again, and frequently reconnected with the outside world.
First of all, the queen mother died of illness, and then the abolished prince Wang Lin also died, and the bad news was like a thunderbolt from the sky, poking her already cooled heart into a thousand holes.
Now it is easy to wait for the funeral of his mother and brother to be completed, but one person once again makes Wang Yan full of concern.
Wang Yan learned that her only surviving brother, the newly moved Wang An, also seemed to be a little bad.
"What happened to my brother?" Wang Yan walked anxiously and asked the little yellow door that led the way.
"Lord of the Chamber, the new king has been terrified since he returned from the queen's funeral."
Wang An was stupid and had been taken care of by the queen herself. An old queen who has been crying and blind for a long time, a harmless prince who only knows how to laugh stupidly all day long, depends on each other. After all, Emperor Wang Mang was busy with his big things all day long, and he would not easily set foot in the pepper room.
Now that the queen is gone, Wang An seems to have lost his soul, rolling around on the ground like a child and asking for his mother, and he is easily appeased by the ceremonial officials and the Yellow Gate. At the funeral of Queen Xiaomu, Wang An once again made a lot of ugliness, in front of the civil and military officials and doctors, he actually cried uncontrollably, and after being reprimanded by the emperor with a straight face, he was even more frightened and incontinent.
Today, Wang Yan came to visit Wang An, and before she entered the door, she heard his trademark high voice.
"Don't kill me, don't kill me!"
After entering the room, I saw the tall Wang An's unkempt hair, dressed in a short beat, running around the house. Fu Mu, the palace maids, and the eunuchs chased after him with porridge bowls and medicines, and when Wang An fled, he threw everything within his reach at them, holding lamps and candles and waving them indiscriminately, smashing the servants with blue noses and swollen faces. If he dared to call the guards outside to come in to help, it would make Wang An scream in panic and even fall to the ground and spasm.
Everyone carried Wang An's seventy-eight family to the bed again, and urgently called the doctor for diagnosis and treatment, but they all shook their heads, saying that the new king did not have much time.
And after Wang An woke up, he only shrunk and trembled in the futon, repeating the words "don't kill me".
The emperor would not come over to care about this stupid son, only Wang Yan sat on the edge of the couch and called: "Brother, it's me." ”
Wang An turned his head and when he saw Wang Yan, he immediately burst into tears and laughed.
"Mother."
Wang Yan's appearance is similar to that of his mother, Queen Xiaomu, but Wang An admitted his mistake.
"Brother, I'm Yan."
"Mother!" But Wang An didn't care, opened his arms, hugged Wang Yan directly, and then howled and cried, like a child who had been lost for a long time.
When Wang Yan was a child, she was extremely disgusted with this stupid brother, thinking that he was stupid and ugly, and his body was always stinky. When he is a teenager, he often sits on the ground and cries, and his mother also favors him, punishing Wang Yan and others regardless of whether it is right or wrong.
But now she can't hate it, she only hugs her brother with tears in her eyes.
Wang An is a natural madness, but Wang Yan has seen man-made stupidity when she grows up.
After the death of her husband Emperor Hanping, Wang Mang became the "Emperor Regent", found the children of the clan, and did not set them up, but only established them as the crown prince and recognized Wang Yan as his mother. However, Wang Yan was not very old at that time, and only played with him as a younger brother.
Three years later, the new room was replaced by Han, the child was useless, and at the age of four, he was placed under house arrest and locked up in the former Dahonglu Mansion, guarded by guards all the year round, and slaves were not allowed to talk to him, and Wang Yan was not allowed to meet him.
Wang Yan only heard that the infant is now sixteen years old, but he doesn't know six animals, and he can't even speak clearly, so he has become a fool similar to Wang An.
At least, Ru Ziying thought that the world that locked him up was all the world, and he was still carefree, and he was very lucky. Unlike Wang An, who only knew his mother and brother, familiar people left suddenly one by one, panicking.
Wang Yan finally failed to appease her brother, and after a few days and nights of panic, she moved Wang Xue to the new position, only holding her sister's hand before she died, which was the only comfort.
And the emperor only came to see after learning the news, stroked Wang An's face and sighed, and didn't know what he was thinking.
Queen Xiaomu has a nest of five chicks, four sons and a daughter, and now the four sons are dead, leaving only Wang Yan alone in the world.
Doctors said that it was madness and diseases that had fallen for many years that killed Wang An, as did the official declaration of the imperial court.
But Wang Yan knew who the murderer who really scared Wang An to death.
On the way back to Ding'an Pavilion, the Huang Imperial Family Master glanced at Wang Lutang on the top of Longshou Mountain, even if he lost another son, the emperor was still dealing with government affairs all night, he would not stop, and he did not dare to stop. The deaths of the queen, the abolished prince, and the newly moved king could not shake Wang Mang's determination.
"It was you who killed him, just like killing Uncle Brother, Brother Zhong, Brother Ji and Wang Zong."
Wang Yan only complained about her father in the past, complaining that he pushed himself into the whirlpool of the palace and made his identity so embarrassing.
But now, I am afraid and hateful!
I am afraid that the next one will be my turn to be poisoned, and I hate him for eating his tiger poison.
Wang Yan somewhat understood what her mother meant by those two sentences before she died.
"He is no longer my beloved king Jujun, and Jujun will never be so ruthless."
"Thou shalt not be his children."
Yes, in my young memory, the father who was kind and kind, soft-spoken, and always loved his family has changed. From the time Emperor Han Ai ascended the throne, he rolled down from the peak for the first time, and returned to the new capital to take up the country; From the moment he returned to power and his ambition grew.
The sons and daughters have become pure tools, just like the hundreds of millions of people in the world, but they are just sacrifices on the road to the ideal.
Wang Yan said secretly: "The power that will always be held is his wife and concubine." ”
"The dream of three generations, which has long been shattered, is his children!"
……
Within a month, the queen and the two princes passed away one after another, the black and white condolence cloth on the Canglong Que had just been taken off and hung up, and the funeral was repeated one after another, and the civil and military officials were quite trembling, and some people even felt that this was a sign of the new room.
After all, as soon as Wang An is gone, the emperor has no living sons-in-law, but fortunately, he still has many grandchildren, a total of five still alive.
They are all Wang Yu's brothers, Wang Zong's brothers, Wang Mang will think of the rebellion against his son and grandson when he sees them.
But after all, the imperial court must have an heir, even if the prince is not established, just throwing it in Beijing can make people feel at ease, after all, the reason why the former Han Dynasty declined is largely due to the absolute unity of Cheng, Mourning and Ping.
This is the main content of Wuwei Si's order Chen Chong to let Kong Ren write a recital, Kong Ren mentioned that Wang Mang is in the distant front team of Xindu, in fact, there are several pairs of children, all of whom were born to his concubines during the years when he was the marquis of Xindu, two concubines and two concubines, all of whom are now adults.
Chen Chong instructed Kong Ren to ask for his life, believing that the new capital of the front team was adjacent to the Green Forest Mountain, and now that the Green Forest in Jingzhou was infested with bandits, it was not safe for the prince and the princess to be away for a long time, so they should be sent to Chang'an to be resettled nearby.
This is Chen Chong's plan for several years, the emperor can't really rule for 36,000 years, sooner or later the mountain will collapse, whether it is the crown prince or Wang Zong to succeed to the throne, they have their own team, and they don't deal with their own "lonely ministers". Once the new monarch comes to power, once the son of heaven and a courtier, he is afraid that he will not be able to escape the fate of the cool officials Zhidu and Ning Cheng in the early Han Dynasty.
After thinking about it, Chen Chong felt that since this is the case, it is better to invest in people who seem impossible!
For example, the two concubines who stayed in Xindu, Chen Chong himself is a native of Nanyang, and he is naturally close to them, if he can let one of them take the position, he can turn the danger into a disaster, and even jump to the peak of power in one fell swoop.
"How much does the lord of the country win? Said: Innumerable. ”
Chen Chong wants to be a big new Lu Buwei and taste the power of commanding the world, if he can do this, it doesn't hurt to take the risk of Wuding cooking.
After this recital, although Wang Mang's feelings for his children were a little unusual, the political impact also had to be considered, so he readily adopted it and asked people to write a suicide note for the dead Wang An.
"The minister Xinqian Wang An kowtowed and kowtowed again, although the concubines Wang Xing, Wang Kuang and other mothers were lowly, they belonged to the prince of Judah and could not be abandoned."
Wang Mang passed this recital to the public at the court meeting, even if the three princes and the four generals knew that the fool Wang An would never say such a thing, but he still said against his will: "The new king is a friend of the brothers, and he will not forget the feelings of Tang Tang before he dies, and he should be invited to summon the prince to Beijing, and he should be knighted in spring and summer!" ”
But if there is chaos today, the court officials are often hijacked, and it is too dangerous to let the two imperial concubines enter the court, so they still have to send envoys to lead troops to meet them.
Chen Chong didn't speak himself, but only made Kong Ren eager to try, indicating that Wuwei Siming was very willing to take on this task.
But after Wang Mang thought about it for a while, he handed over this errand to a person that Chen Chong and Kong Ren never expected.
"Make the scattered cavalry, the fifth Lun festival of the Taizhong doctor, go to the front team (Nanyang) Xindu, welcome the prince Xing, Kuang into the court!"
……
"Why me?"
After entering the palace and receiving the edict, Wu Lun was not happy at all, didn't this delay his marriage?
What's more, after seeing the horror of Lao Wang's four and five killings, Wu Lun sympathized with Lao Liu Xin, and wanted to stay away from this bloody royal struggle.
Unexpectedly, the more Fifth Lun wanted to hide, but the errand fell on him, and he found Huan Tan as soon as possible and asked him to come up with an idea: "Junshan, you say, can't I resign now when I am seriously ill?" ”
"The official can be resigned, but the mission cannot be resigned."
Huan Tan only sneered: "Bo Yu believe it or not, if you dare to excuse yourself, the Son of Heaven will not protect you, and let the five Wei Si order you to be imprisoned?" ”
"But why me?" Fifth Lun still didn't understand, shouldn't he pick an emperor's cronies, such as Chen Chong and others, to do this kind of thing?
Speaking of which, Wu Lun didn't wait for Huan Tan's reminder to figure it out by himself.
"It is precisely because of my gap with Chen Chong that the emperor sent me as an envoy."
"The death of the abolished prince is full of suspicions, and I don't believe that Wuwei Si Ming is clean in this matter."
Recently, it has been rumored in Beijing that some people from the Siming Mansion disappeared inexplicably after entering the palace, and never came out again, not knowing life and death, maybe they knew something they shouldn't know and were wiped out.
Even Wu Lun saw a little trace, Wang Mang was just crazy, and he was not stupid, and his trust in Wu Wei Si Ming was probably discounted, and he wanted to support a newcomer who could stir up with Chen Chong's different theories.
"And since Yan Boshi's dismissal and the closure of the national teacher, I have no backer in the court."
"I'm the emperor's new 'lonely minister'!"
Fifth Lun guessed Wang Mang's careful thoughts, and only felt funny. Maybe he, the newly rising Kenubo, is still the team left by Wang Mang to the future new prince......
If you come, you will be safe, and it is not a difficult errand to come, and the fifth Lun opened the map left by Yangxiong and opened the "Jingzhou Zhen" view.
Today's Qianqi County, the former Nanyang, is in the northernmost part of Jingzhou.
"Let me see, where is the new capital?"
Fifth Lun searched on the map with low accuracy, he first found the capital Wancheng, and used this as a road marker, and his index finger followed Wancheng to the south, until he reached the location of Xinye County, is this the place where Xinye was burned in Romance?
Then I caught a glimpse of the southernmost Lulin Mountain of the front team, and the northern foot of the green forest was Caiyang County.
And Xindu is in the middle of this Xinye and Caiyang.
Fifth Lun knocked on it, thinking that he hadn't been to these places yet, and the weather was good in March, so he smiled and said, "Okay, just go to the south and take a trip!" ”
