Chapter 999: Playing
Furukawa was scared.
The house he lived in was luxurious, the food was exquisite, and the guards were majestic and respectful, but if he wanted to get out of the room, the guards would politely stop him.
After all, he was trained by the Xiang family for several years, and after a village boy who didn't understand anything learned to read and write, his knowledge has finally grown a lot.
He also has a general understanding of his current situation.
Where is Xiang's family, he is a tool, and now it is in the hands of Xiang's opponent Li Ze, and he still can't escape this fate.
But any tool, the end is generally worrying.
But he has no power to control his fate, so he can only be a fallen leaf floating on the water, drifting with the tide and resigning himself to fate.
"Mr. Gongsun!"
Hearing the respectful voice of the guards outside, Furukawa tried his best to sit more upright, this old man outside was definitely a big man who could control his life and death.
"Your Majesty!" Gongsun Changming entered the door and bowed to Furukawa with a smile.
Furukawa got up in some panic and avoided it.
"Your Majesty, sit down!" Gongsun Changming straightened his face, watching Furukawa finally regain his state after a period of confusion, and couldn't help but nod with satisfaction, Xiang's training was still quite fruitful, and when Furukawa began to play his role seriously, it was not quite true.
Sitting opposite Furukawa, Gongsun Changming looked at Furukawa.
"Is there anything you want to say to me, sir?" Furukawa said in a low voice.
Gongsun Changming nodded: "Guchuan, there has been definite news that your family, as well as the village where you are, including your neighbors, have indeed been killed by the Xiang clan, and there is no one left." ”
Furukawa's eyes were wide open, but no tears were shed, or he already knew what a terrible thing he was involved in after witnessing the thrilling events the other day. In the contest of these characters, the lives of the little people are as worthless as mustard.
"I wonder what Mr. wants me to do in the future?"
"Forget that your name is Gu Chuan, you are Li Ke, and you will always be Li Ke" Gongsun Changming said lightly.
Furukawa was silent for a moment and said, "Sir, when will I die?" Was it when Li Xiang wanted to be the emperor? ”
Gongsun Changming smiled slightly, little people also have the cleverness of little people, and they don't understand anything because they have a very low status.
"I talked to Li Xiang about this matter, and Li Xiang has made it clear that you will not die, no matter when, you will not die."
"But if it is Li Ke, it will inevitably be a stumbling block for Li Xiang to ascend to the throne."
"Just because you are Li Ke, you will not die. If you're Furukawa, you won't be able to live. Gongsun Changming said: "Who is Li Xiang, he is a descendant of King Qin, according to the rank of the Li clan, you still have to call him an imperial uncle." ”
"Uncle Huang?"
Gongsun Changming nodded: "So one day, when Li Xiang wants to sit on the throne, what you need to do is to give up this position to Li Xiang." ”
"And then?"
"Then, you'll get a knighthood and live happily. You Gu family, you are the only one left, so you can still inherit the ancient family! ”
"But at that time, I was Li Ke!"
"At that time, no one will pay attention to a fallen emperor, you can marry a wife and have children, and then choose one of your sons, quietly find a place, change back to your original surname, and renew the incense for your ancestors." Gongsun Changming said.
"Can this really be the case?" Furukawa became a little excited.
"Of course you can!" Gongsun Changming said with a smile: "But now, you must forget that you are Gu Chuan, you must be Li Ke, and you can only be Li Ke, at most one year, if you play this role well, even if you complete your task, you will be free in the next few days." ”
"I will definitely play the role of this emperor well." Furukawa's eyes sparkled with hope.
No one wants to die.
As long as there is hope of survival, everyone wants to live.
Ants are still greedy for life, let alone people?
He knew very well that he had no choice at all, what else could he do but cooperate and survive? I can only pray that the other party can keep his promise, and when the time comes, he can let himself get out of the way.
"Will Li Xiang destroy the entire Xiang clan?" Furukawa gritted his teeth.
"Of course." Gongsun Changming said coldly: "Although it will take time, you don't need to worry, the revenge of your whole family will definitely be avenged." ”
"As long as I can avenge this sea of blood, I am willing to do anything." Furukawa's eyes turned red.
Gongsun Changming nodded, and told the other party some things that needed attention, then got up and left. For the person in front of him, he doesn't need to put too much effort into it, the other party only needs to appear when it should appear, and speak when he speaks, usually, just be an invisible person.
A few years ago, this was originally done, and everyone in the Northland is used to this model.
Who is the person sitting on the stage, for the officials of the Wuyi court, there is no difference at all, even if it is a pig sitting, it will not affect the normal operation of the court organs.
"Li Xiang, this time, because of the propaganda offensive of the Tang Weekly, it has made many people in the north realize that we actually have an emperor squatting on your head, and next, we have to dilute this fact." Gongsun Changming took the latest issue of the Datang Weekly, which was still accusing the Xiang family of finding a fake to pretend to be the Li Tang clan, and the bad intentions were clearly revealed.
"It needs to be slowly loosened little by little, and the sudden cliff-like end of this matter is suspicious." Chen Wenliang on the side said: "The next day will be less and less." Because the matter of the burial of the emperor will be announced soon, it is inevitable to mention the emperor. ”
"Wen Liang is right." Li Zedao: "After the 77th Week, the coffin of the Emperor Taishang will be transported to Chang'an, and the burial ceremony will also be held in Chang'an, which is also to show the world our determination to recover Chang'an." I want to tell everyone that when the coffin of the Emperor Taishang arrives in Chang'an, we will inevitably recover Chang'an. ”
"It's also a morale boost!" Gongsun Changming nodded and said, "Guchuan has already made arrangements there, and then we can issue an edict that Li Xiang, you will be crowned King of Qin." Since you are a descendant of King Qin, it is natural to inherit the title of King of Qin. It's also a step further for you to remove the last hurdle. ”
"When are you going to announce it?"
"I discussed it with Zhang Hui, and it was on the day of the departure of the Emperor's coffin." Gongsun Changming said: "You and the little emperor have to support the coffin back to Chang'an, at this time to announce that you will be crowned the king of Qin, preside over the state affairs, crusade against rebellion, and continue to increase the tragic color, but also to further demonstrate the legitimacy of your identity." ”
"That's very good." Li Ze picked up two documents with an eight-hundred-mile urgency from his desk, and continued: "Xue Ping and Han Qi want to come back to attend the funeral of the Emperor Taishang, what do you think of this matter?" ”
After reading through the documents of the two senior officials, Gongsun Changming pondered for a moment and said, "I think they can be allowed to come back." With Xue Ping's temperament, if it was still the past, this person was afraid that he would have rushed back a long time ago, but now that he wrote the excerpt first, he has actually expressed his attitude, and Han Qi is the same, these two people's identities are extraordinary, and when they enter Chang'an, these two people stand on Li Xiang's side, which can convince the people of the world. ”
"I'm a little worried." Chen Wenliang on the side said with some concern: "Whether it's Han Qi or Xue Ping, they are all familiar with Li Ke, what if these two people come back and find out that this Li Ke is not Li Ke, what if they have a seizure?" ”
Gongsun Changming smiled and said, "Is this important? When Xue Ping was persuaded by Xu Ziyuan to return to the Western Regions from Hetao City, and when Han Qi accepted Li Xiang's appointment to go to Liaodong to command the battle against Zhang Zhongwu, these two had actually given up their original political views. Obviously, they have now recognized the reality and feel that Li Xiang is more suitable for the position of emperor. Now that Li Xiang has been recognized, does it still matter to them who Li Ke is? ”
Chen Wenliang nodded in understanding and did not speak again.
"Han Qi also mentioned one thing in the letter, he asked himself to be the governor of Yingzhou." Li Zedao: "He is the former secretary of the military department, and now he is the pacification envoy of the entire Liaodong, he has contributed a lot to defeating Zhang Zhongwu, if he really lets him supervise Yingzhou, will there be something wrong?" ”
"It is common for a Shangshu to be turned into a feudal official." Gongsun Changming said: "The pacification envoy of Liaodong was originally a temporary dispatch, and it was not a real job. Although Yingzhou is remote, it has a vast area, fertile land, and rich mineral deposits, so it can be said that it is a rich place, and as long as it is well managed, it can definitely become an important town of the empire. If Li Xiang is afraid that others will feel that Han Qi has been excluded and attacked, he might as well compensate him on top of the title. ”
"The governors of Jizhou, Liaozhou, and Yingzhou, you should discuss with Cao Xin first, come up with a few specific candidates, and let's discuss them collectively at the next big meeting." Li Ze muttered: "Although these three places have been managed by Zhang Zhongwu over the years, but this war, it has been hit hard, the governor took office, the first thing is to restore the people's livelihood, but the local bandits are serious, so the people who go must be both civil and military, have the means, and dare to make a decision." Han Qi is eligible. ”
"In the pocket of the Cao Minister's Department, there must be a lot of such people." Gongsun Changming said with a smile: "I'll go back and discuss it with him." By the way, the monitoring team led by Yelu Chengfeng has already set off, and Yelu Fengze's caravan will also leave for Liaodong in a few days. ”
