Chapter 123: Murong led the troops and the ministers to gamble
The next day, Chang'an, Taiji Hall.
Fu Jian looked haggard, his eye sockets were deep-set, after a few days of indulgence, he didn't close his eyes for a whole night last night, even if he was beaten with iron, he couldn't stand it, this King of Qin, his eyes were bloodshot, his face was full of anger, even he was famous for his benevolence and righteousness, he rarely got angry like this, which made the courtiers of the Manchu Dynasty silent and did not dare to speak.
Fu Jian looked around and said slowly: "I'm afraid all the princes have heard about it, last night, an assassin entered the palace and wanted to assassinate Yu Gu, since Gu ascended the throne, some people rebelled, some people defected, but it was the first time to enter the palace and assassinate!" ”
Wang Meng stood first on the left, his expression was calm, and he said slowly: "I'm afraid that this assassin doesn't want to assassinate the Heavenly King, but has other plans!" ”
Fu Jian's face changed: "Why did the prime minister say this?" ”
Wang Meng sighed: "After Wei Chen learned about this matter last night, he immediately came over to supervise the investigation of the case, and just summarized the news he received, I am afraid that this assassin is not an ordinary person, and he entered the palace not to be unfavorable to the Heavenly King." ”
Fu Jian's brows were deeply locked, and the ministers below were also in an uproar, and several nobles of the Di clan, who had always been dissatisfied with Wang Meng, sneered: "How can Prime Minister Wang know so much about this assassin, doesn't it have anything to do with you?" ”
Wang Meng smiled slightly, looked at Zhang Hao, the general of the forbidden army standing in the queue of generals on the right, and said calmly: "General Zhang, you were on duty last night, you can tell me about the situation." ”
Although this Zhang Oyster is a strong man with five big and three thick, he has a black face and no beard, and he looks very weird. He was originally the adopted son of Zhang Ping, a local tyrant who divided and annexed the state, and his strength was infinite, he could drag a thousand catties of cattle, and when he grew up, he practiced martial arts, and he was a fierce general in the world.
But when he was a teenager, he had an affair with his adoptive father's concubine because he couldn't control the work below, and after the incident, he was scolded by his adoptive father Zhang Ping, and felt that his face was gloomy, so he simply became angry and went to the palace in order to atone for his sins, although he became a eunuch since then, but his martial arts have become more sophisticated.
Later, Zhang Ping was defeated by Fu Jian, and Zhang Hao's martial arts had long been known by Fu Jian, so he was promoted to the rank of knight, because he was castrated from the palace, so he could rest assured that he would command the soldiers and horses in the palace, without worrying about him relapsing from his old illness and colluding with which concubine, after all, Fu Jian has always only slept with other people's wives, and his own concubines are reluctant to share them with others.
Zhang Oyster hooked the corners of his mouth and said: "Last night, someone broke into the Wuji Palace in the side hall and sang loudly, fish and sheep eat people, and there is no trace of tragedy!" These two verses were sung a dozen times, but when we entered the temple, we did not find half a figure. ”
Fu Jian gritted his teeth: "What about the guards guarding the palace gate, did they just let people in?" ”
Zhang Oyster shook his head: "Yesterday, everything was normal on duty everywhere, after the incident, all the palace gates were closed, and additional manpower was sent on the city wall, even a fly could not fly out, and the whole palace searched just now, and did not find half a figure, Heavenly King, this is the dereliction of duty of the last general, please punish you!" ”
Fu Jian sighed: "General Zhang, you are not derelict in your duties, but I am afraid that this thief is familiar with the inside of the palace, and it is not your fault that he went in and out of any secret channel." ”
Wang Meng said calmly: "Heavenly King, the old minister has a word that he wants to enter, and please move to the Liangyi Palace!" ”
Fu Jian nodded, he vaguely felt that something was wrong, Wang Meng wanted to speak in private, it seemed to be quite serious, he stood up: "Scatter the dynasty, drive the Liangyi Palace!" ”
Half an hour later, on the Liangyi Palace, even the documents for remembering the matter have been withdrawn, except for a few deaf and dumb guards at the entrance of the palace, only the two monarchs and ministers are left in the huge palace. Fu Jian's brows furrowed deeply, and he muttered, "Could it be that this is God's retribution for Lonely?" ”
Wang Meng's face did not change, and he said calmly: "What has the Heavenly King done recently to receive retribution?" ”
Fu Jian's face was ashamed: "Jingluo, you know that you still have to ask." Gu has already sent Mrs. Murong out of the palace, can she escape the punishment of heaven? ”
Wang Meng sighed: "Don't the Heavenly King know that this is a warning from the heavens? This time it was not an assassin, but a messenger from above, and he was there to convey the will of the Emperor. If you are obsessed and keep the Xianbei people of the Murong clan, I am afraid that a catastrophe is coming! ”
Fu Jian's body shook involuntarily: "This, what do you mean by this?" Fish and sheep eat people, is there some terrible monster about to appear? Or is there a flood? ”
Wang Meng shook his head: "Fish and sheep eat people, fish and sheep together are a fresh word, sad and unremarkable, this sadness is fake a humble word, two sentences together, it is Xianbei cannibalism, if it is not removed early, there is no more sadness!" ”
Fu Jian was silent for a long time, the light in his eyes flashed, as if he was thinking, Wang Meng sighed: "Xianbei people have never known kindness, the Eastern Han Dynasty used to give them a lot of mercy, but the Central Plains at the end of the Han Dynasty was in turmoil, but they took the opportunity to occupy the Han Dynasty's Liaodong, became the climate, and later the Jin Dynasty was established, and they surrendered to the Jin Dynasty, but a few decades ago again rebelled against the Jin Dynasty and became the emperor, and entered the Central Plains. ”
It can be seen from this that these Xianbei people, especially the Murong clan, never know about retribution, they will only pretend to be submissive when the Heavenly King is strong, and once there is a change in the world, they will take advantage of the chaos. Heaven has already given you such a warning, if you don't destroy the Murong clan, when will you wait?! ”
Fu Jian gritted his teeth: "These are just your inferences and assumptions, I can't kill people for no reason because of a few false words from you." And this time I occupied Murong Chui's wife, I am afraid that this matter has been leaked, if I really kill the Murong clan, others will say that I am a murderer and take a wife! ”
Wang Meng jumped up in a hurry, rubbed his hands, and said, "Now that the matter is over, do you still care about these gossips? Except for the Murong clan, Great Qin Fang is too peaceful! ”
Fu Jian closed his eyes and shook his head: "Jing Luo, I can't listen to you in this matter, your prejudice against the Murong clan is too deep, this matter is not the work of the countryman, if your words are recorded in history today, then I am afraid that your name as a virtuous minister will also be covered in dust!" ”
Wang Meng gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "Then let's speak with facts, please ask the Heavenly King to issue an edict, let Murong Chui lead the troops to the south, counterattack Xiangyang, an important town of the Jin State, and set off from his headquarters Xianbei people, to see if he has soldiers in hand, will he betray, or be loyal to you!" Just in case, please let the Yang Ping Gong lead the troops to support him and monitor his army! ”
Fu Jian slowly stood up: "Zhun Song, however, Fu Rong also has the same prejudice against the Murong clan as you, this time let Gu's eldest son Fu Pi go, if Murong is loyal to Daqin this time, please also ask Prime Minister Wang Cheng to mention the killing of Murong in the future!" ”
Wang Meng nodded, a cold glint flashed in his eyes: "A word is a certainty!" ”
