Chapter 459: The two armies are fighting
Zhou Jincheng looked at King Zhennan's expression in shock, could it be that he knew something, and he was suddenly a little flustered in his heart!
In fact, Yuan Chufeng has been sending people to check on Zhou Jincheng during this time, only then did he know that Zhou Jincheng's internal strife was over, and now Zhou Jincheng's rights have been hollowed out, and the court is controlled by King Li, and he has a gambling contract with King Li.
Zhou Jincheng's cheeks were flushed, as if he had been severely humiliated, he didn't expect such a secret thing to be known by King Zhennan!
The king of Zhennan directly sent someone to press the prince of Zhou into the prison, and many people were implicated today, and the surrounding prince was finally going to be removed, he knew in his heart.
After a while, Yuan Chufeng's subordinates came to report, saying that they had been looking for Prime Minister Duan for a long time and had not found Prime Minister Duan, and now they didn't know Prime Minister Duan's traces.
Xuan Ling said suspiciously, "Where can this prime minister go?" The Prime Minister's Mansion is so big, can it still disappear out of thin air? ”
King Zhennan also felt very strange, at this time he thought about it seriously, and after a while, he suddenly said in surprise, "Hurry up and let people go to the palace, this prime minister is likely to be mixed in the palace and it will be bad for the emperor!" ”
King Zhennan's words made everyone vigilant, this matter is not impossible, the hanging rabbit is cooked to death, now, the prince has been arrested, and the prince who Prime Minister Duan once helped cannot be easily let go.
In such a situation, it is very possible that she has a rebellious heart.
Thinking about things like this, it was very complicated, not only Xuan Ling was very worried in his heart, but he was also very careful when he sent people over, lest something happen now, but he didn't make a decision.
Sure enough, King Zhennan guessed well, Prime Minister Duan Cheng did not go, but went straight to the palace, at this time the emperor did not know what was going on outside the palace, he closed his eyes in the Palace of Cultivation of the Heart, thinking in his heart that now he just finally has a result, after thinking about it, Yan Guo will definitely be safe and secure. didn't expect Prime Minister Duan to suddenly appear outside the store.
Gonggong Jiang directly blocked Prime Minister Duan, after all, Prime Minister Duan is still in doubt, if Prime Minister betrays Yan Guo, there will be an account to settle at that time.
What's more, it is the third watch in the middle of the night, and Prime Minister Duan suddenly appeared, which really makes people wonder if he has other intentions?
"This official wants to see the emperor." Prime Minister Duan said coldly.
Gonggong Jiang on the side said respectfully, "I also asked Prime Minister Duan to wait until the last dynasty to come to see the emperor, now that he has rested, today is an eventful day, the prime minister will go back early, now Hanzhou is not peaceful, I think there should be rumors about the prime minister." ”
Prime Minister Duan secretly held a dagger under his hands, he knew that now, he had been exposed at this time, and after a while, he would be exposed to it, and the emperor could not forgive himself so easily.
Instead of waiting there forever, and now holding all the initiative in his own hands, there is no way to think about others, he secretly wrote down this matter in his heart, but he didn't know how to choose, but the current thing has already been done, and there is absolutely no way out.
"I'll tell you to get out of the way."
Prime Minister Duan said coldly, and then pushed Gonggong Jiang away on the side, he looked at the emperor who was resting in the Heart Cultivation Hall not far away, and the fierce light was revealed. The dagger in his hand was given directly to the emperor, put his father-in-law aside, and said spiritually, come quickly, someone is going to assassinate the emperor, come and escort him.
Seeing that the dagger was following up with the emperor, the emperor suddenly opened his eyes, and he avoided it.
King Yan looked at Prime Minister Duan coldly, and said mockingly, "I used to believe that you had done your best for the Yan Kingdom, and originally thought that after waiting for a hundred years to return to the mountain, I would leave a way back for your Duan family, so that your children and grandchildren can enjoy the blessing of the emperor, but I didn't expect that you would be so uncontrollable, and even colluded with the prince of the Zhou Kingdom, and now you want to destroy the Yan Kingdom. ”
The dagger in Prime Minister Duan Cheng's hand was directly knocked out by the emperor, and Duan Cheng was injured by the emperor on the contrary, and the emperor said coldly to the prime minister, "You have disappointed me too much." ”
Prime Minister Duan Cheng sneered and said to the emperor, "Although the current thing is unexpected, but it is also in my expectation, it is not an adult to become a benevolent, the emperor, I have never believed in the lower officials, otherwise for so many years, I have been respectful to the emperor, no matter what happens, the emperor is the center, no matter how I do it, the emperor only has Zhennan Wangfu in his heart, since it is impossible to turn over, now it is better to gamble, and now it is just a matter of being caught by the emperor, but now I have never regretted this matter." ”
The emperor sent someone to call the guards, and then pressed Prime Minister Duan.
He said coldly to Prime Minister Duan, "All the future is ruined by yourself, and I have never forced you anything, but you are always not satisfied, you want everything except what you can get, but you still forget your original intention, I have trusted you for so many years, and I can finally be disappointed." ”
The prime minister was taken directly to the water prison, this may be the first prime minister in the history of Yan to be abolished as prime minister, for so many years, he has been assisting the emperor, the emperor, and his heart is also thinking about his kindness, but I didn't expect that since he turned against him.
The emperor let out a long sigh, and he said to Gonggong Jiang beside him, "What happened now, is it my fault?" Or is it the fault of the year, or is their ambition too great, but is it mine after all? ”
Gonggong Jiang hurriedly said to the emperor comfortingly, "How can it be the emperor's fault, the emperor treats everyone the same, but Duan Cheng is too ambitious, unwilling to live in his current position, and even originally loyal to Yan Guo, but in the end he actually wanted to replace the emperor, such a mind is not advisable, so in fact, the outcome can be predicted a long time ago, all this is Duan Cheng's own destruction, why does the emperor count all the fault on himself?" What is your fault for this? What is wrong with Tong Yanguo? Now it's just that he's paying the price for what he's done. ”
The emperor directly let Gonggong Jiang leave, put on the clothes of the previous court, and then sat until dawn, this night did not sleep, he thought too many things in his heart, and now he just has to have an explanation after all, since the civil strife has been calmed, there is a saying after all.
By the time the warbler woke up on the second day, Shuqin was ready, and the killing aura of last night had long since disappeared in the morning, and the palace had returned to its usual calm.
The emperor did not know when he withdrew the Praetorian Guard.
