Chapter 185: Encountering the two of Zonglou
Chen Yin said, "Don't you know, this Xifeng Mansion was opened when the prime minister just received the prime minister's seal, and the real boss behind the scenes is Xifeng Building." Cheng took his savings for many years and opened this extravagant Xifeng Lou in one fell swoop, because the wine and food decoration in this building are all of the best quality, and the girls in the building are also pleasing to men, and the price is also quite high, this Xifeng Lou has gradually become a place where officials in the DPRK and China like to go to have fun. ”
Wang Shouming thought of something, "Could it be that this prime minister is collecting information about these officials through this Xifeng Tower?" ”
Officials abide by etiquette on weekdays, and when they arrive in this drama Fenglou, they are naturally extremely debauched, and after three rounds of drinking, the beautiful girl in the building seduces a little, and those officials don't all vomit everything.
Chen Yin nodded, "Yes." And at that time, an official who was close to the current saint who was still the prince at that time especially liked to come to this opera phoenix building to find a girl named Jiaojiao. The official was originally tight-mouthed, and he never said anything.
It's just that one day later, when I was worried about the confusion, I was drugged by that Jiaojiao, and I vomited everything. The prime minister also knew about the current saint's plan to usurp the throne. “
Wang Shouming said, "Doesn't the prime minister have to help the current saint?" After all, once the current affairs are completed, the saint will become the emperor. “
Chen Yin said, "That's not the case, this prime minister looks down on him very much when he is still a prince, but the prime minister appreciates King Yan more." The prime minister of that year also served as the concubine of King Yan. It's just that the prime minister is obsessed with profit, and he doesn't want this King Yan to be the emperor in his heart, after all, King Yan is quite capable, if he becomes the emperor, it will be difficult for him to monopolize power. Prime Minister's original plan was to support a young prince to be the prince. ”
When Wang Shouming heard this, he was very surprised, "The young prince? “
Chen Yin said, "Few people knew about this back then, and I only found out about it when the prime minister's staff inadvertently talked about it." At that time, the prime minister colluded with the favored concubines in the palace, so that the concubine stole the emperor's big seal and signed and drew the seal on the fake edict of Na Liyou, just waiting for the emperor to breathe, so he took out the edict with the concubine to support the young emperor to ascend the throne. It's just that when I heard the plan of the current saint, I knew that the emperor's plan would not succeed, so I could only think of another trick. ”
Wang Shouming said, "Then King Yan didn't care about these things at all?" ”
Chen Yin nodded, "He is not interested in the throne, he is brave and warlike, he only thinks that he can personally lead the troops to fight, and when he becomes the emperor, he can't fight so happily, so no matter who is the emperor, he has no opinion." As long as it's not him. ”
Wang Shouming said with a smile, "This King Yan is strange, everyone else is vying to be the emperor, but he can't avoid it." ”
Chen Yin said, "Yes, it's just that the prime minister at that time and the current saint didn't know about it, and they were still afraid of him." And now the saint had a disagreement with the prime minister at that time, and the prime minister was afraid that the emperor would be unfavorable to him after he ascended the throne, so he wanted to do something to deceive the emperor's trust. ”
Wang Shouming was a little puzzled and said, "Then the prime minister at that time has accepted that the current saint will be the emperor?" ”
Chen Yin said, "Yes, Prime Minister's own plan doesn't work, and he doesn't want King Yan to ascend to the throne, so can't he support the current saint?" It's just that the saint had a discord with him at that time, and the prime minister wanted to gain the emperor's trust, so he had to help him do something. ”
A dark light flashed in Wang Shouming's eyes, "What's the matter?" ”
Chen Yin said with a smile, "Then the Holy Lord wants the prime minister to lead King Yan outside the capital on the day when the emperor breathes." ”
Wang Shouming was a little puzzled, "It's just that this person's life and death are fateful, how does the emperor know when the emperor will be angry?" ”
Chen Yin said, "Life and death are fateful, and a bowl of poison can easily kill people." ”
Wang Shouming was a little stunned, he saw the emperor's cowardly appearance over the years, it turned out that he was also a vicious person who could poison his own father back then.
Chen Yin looked at Wang Shouming's expression, "The heavenly family is like this, when the first emperor became the emperor, his hands and feet were not clean." Don't talk about this, let's talk about how the prime minister left King Yan outside Beijing.
At that time, King Yan happened to be hunting in the suburbs of Beijing, and this King Yan did not set a trap for King Yan like usual, because he knew that King Yan was strong in martial arts, and ordinary traps could not trap him, so the prime minister found a little girl in the Xifeng Building, pretending to be a country woman, pretending to be bitten by a snake and found by King Yan.
The woman wanted to leave after acting, who knew that the king of Yan was the age of the beginning of love, seeing that the girl was beautiful and beautiful, she was moved by her sincerity, and later the king of Yan discovered the identity of the woman, and also understood the prime minister's tricks, so she was furious at that time, and almost went to raze the Fengge Pavilion to the ground, and now the saint also took the opportunity to demote the king of Yan to a distant border city on the grounds of misconduct.
King Yan didn't bother to fight for anything, so he took a litter of generals to Yancheng, and since then Yancheng has been like a place independent of the imperial court. It's just that King Yan has always been resentful of the prime minister, and he just can't wait to find an opportunity to kill him, if this prince really leads the troops to usurp the throne, I am afraid that the Yancheng Iron Cavalry will break through the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion the next day. ”
Wang Shouming said, "Since this King Yan hates the prime minister so much, why didn't the emperor ask King Yan for help and kill the prime minister in one fell swoop?" Now we have a lot of evidence of the prime minister's guilt. ”
Wang Shouming looked at Chen Yin, and his words seemed to mean something.
Chen Yin shook his head, "This King Yan knows that he was put together by the emperor and prime minister back then, he is resentful of the prime minister, and his dislike for the emperor is only afraid and indispensable, he wishes that the emperor was sitting unsteadily." ”
Wang Shouming felt that the relationship between the prime minister, the emperor and the king of Yan was complicated, and suddenly thought of something again, "Since King Yan's attitude now is that no one will help, why did the prime minister let me persuade King Yan?" ”
Chen Yin also frowned, "He asked you to persuade King Yan not to raise troops, but if the prime minister does not usurp the throne, won't King Yan ride up the army, when the little prince takes the throne, the world is still theirs, the prime minister is just a prime minister, it is nothing more than a deeper control of the world, and he will not go to Yancheng, why does he still let you persuade him?" ”
Wang Shouming also felt that it was wrong, and after pondering for a while, he said, "That's it, I'll go, let's take it step by step when the time comes." ”
Chen Yin nodded, "You are careful in everything, this Yan King is brave and good at fighting, and his methods are resolute, he is very good to his subordinates, but he requires his subordinates to be ten out of ten loyal to him."
The woman who deceived him back then has disappeared silently since the incident in the east window, but I am afraid that it is already more than lucky. If you really gain his trust, you must not be found out by him that you are the prime minister's person, otherwise, I am afraid that the consequences will be unimaginable. ”
Wang Shouming nodded, "I know, then thank you Lord Chen today, it's not too early, I'll go back to the house first." There are still some good plasters in my house, which will be sent to Lord Chen later, hoping that Lord Chen can recover as soon as possible. ”
Chen Yin said, "Then thank Lord Wang first." ”
Leaving the Chen Mansion, Wang Shouming planned to return to the palace. But at the door of Cen Mansion, he bumped into a girl with a pale face, the girl bumped into him, hurriedly apologized, Wang Shouming said lightly that it was okay and wanted to leave.
But when the man saw his face clearly, he suddenly stopped him and said, "You are Lord Wang?" ”
Wang Shouming glanced at the woman again, but still felt that he didn't recognize her, so he wondered, "I'm Wang Shouming, who is the girl?" ”
Lou Yinyang didn't expect that she had just planned to go to Wang Shouming with Zong Lu, and she would be able to meet him at the door of Cen's mansion.
Just as he was about to say who he was, Zong Lu behind him also walked out, and Wang Shouming who saw the door was also surprised, but immediately reacted and introduced to him, "This is the Yin and Yang of Neizilou, I have no intention of colliding with the adult, and I hope that the adult is not strange." ”
Wang Shouming shook his head, "It's okay, it's just that Master Zong is going to do it in such a hurry?" ”
Wang Shouming knew that Zonglu was a close confidant of Cen Zhaohou, so he also trusted him very much.
Zong Lu said, "We are about to go to Lord Wang. ”
Wang Shouming was puzzled, "I don't know what Lord Zong is looking for me?" ”
Zong Lu said, "Presumably, the adults already know about the poisoning and death of Concubine Zhen in the palace, but" We feel that this Concubine Zhen died very strangely, and the reason why the palace maid poisoned Concubine Zhen is still unknown, but Concubine Zhen was rushed to be buried. Now that General Cen is not in the capital, we are worried about what chaos will happen, so we want to come to discuss it with Lord Wang. “
After Zong Lu and Lou Yin Yang were in Beijing, in addition to worrying about Cen Zhaohou and Yun Sha, they stared at the movements on the Prime Minister's side.
I was very shocked to hear that the prime minister sent the daughter of the young lady of Dali Temple called drinking green into the palace, and now the prime minister has just been found to have private soldiers, and the concubine Zhen who is pregnant with a dragon in this palace has been buried. Zong Lu asked the imperial doctor who was familiar with him in the palace, but found that when Concubine Zhen died, she didn't seem to be dying of ordinary poison, but her whole body was clean, except for the lack of breathing and pulse, she looked like a living person.
Zong Lu knew this, and was secretly frightened, but he heard a letter from the people in Biansai saying that Cen Zhaohou had entered the Cold Moon Kingdom and had not yet come out, so he could only come to Wang Shouming.
When Wang Shouming heard them say this, he immediately understood what they were worried about, so he said, "Can you go into the mansion and talk about it?" “
When Zonglu heard this, he hurriedly invited him to the mansion.
Wang Shouming told them in detail about the emperor's concubine Zhen's fake death.
Zong Lu and Lou Yin Yang knew the truth of the matter, so they were relieved.
Wang Shouming said, "Now that the situation in Beijing is severe, it is also a helpless strategy for the emperor to let Concubine Zhen fake her death at this time, but it can make the prime minister and them temporarily relax their vigilance." ”
Zong Lu said, "The emperor is really sage." ”
Wang Shouming suddenly thought of something, and told Zonglu and them about going to Yancheng, and finally asked, "I wonder if Master Zongfu can check Xifeng Tower for me?" ”
