Chapter 293: Boyan ascends to the top

Boyan returned to Dadu immediately after announcing the decree, he saw with his own eyes Gong Qianbai's thunderbolt methods, just a few subordinates, so easily killed Tang Qishi, and did not hesitate to kill Tang Qishi at all, which let him know that the "Agu Mulang" told him that the King of Song had gone to Dadu to deal with Yan Timur was absolutely true, so he immediately returned to Dadu after passing the decree, and at this time it happened to be the news that the Ming traitor Yan Timur was ambushed.

Boyan knew the importance of winning with speed, and he didn't dare to delay for a moment, and he didn't even return to his mansion, but hurriedly enriched his subordinates with a few words, and immediately rushed to the palace.

When he saw the queen mother, he drove all the palace maids and eunuchs away, leaving only the two of them, and Boyan's first words were: "King Song killed Yan Timur with a trick, and the power of the court is in our hands from now on!" ”

The Empress Dowager was stunned for a moment and asked, "King Song is in the south, far away from Dadu, and there is still a lot of disparity between his strength and Yan Timur, how can he be killed suddenly?" ”

"It's true!" Boyan hugged the queen mother excitedly, picked up part of the conversation with Agu Mulang in Bianliang, and told the news she got when she just entered the city, and the queen mother was shocked to believe it.

"For this time, it is to quickly receive the authority of Yan Timur and make me the right prime minister, and the left prime minister is vacant, so that I can quickly take power in a short time! There is also the defense of the capital, and all the military power is handed over to my nephew Tokto, who is young but talented! Then tomorrow's morning will be like this, to ensure that this country will always be in your hands and mine, and others will not want to get involved! ”

"Of course, except for the King of Song, I have promised him to give him Guanzhong, Liaoyang, Qingyan, Goryeo, and Japanese slaves......"

"Are you crazy!" The Empress Dowager looked at Boyan in disbelief, "She now has an entire province as a territory, and if she gives him so much territory, won't she have half of the world?" ”

Boyan comforted: "Of course I know this, but there are three reasons for this:"

"First, Qingyan is better, but Guanzhong is the front line, and the thieves of Sichuan and Shu may be killed from Guanzhong at any time; Except for Guanzhong and Qingyan, Liaoyang Province has always been a headache, and now no one dares to take office; And Goryeo is only a superficial submission, in the past few decades, it was able to control the Goryeo regime through the palace lord and his relatives, but in the last decade or two, King Gaoli has no longer respected the princess of our Yuan Dynasty, and we are about to lose Goryeo, a vassal country, and there will even be such a rebellion; There are only Japanese slaves, and the iron cavalry of our ancient country has never set foot in their territory, and it is not the land canonized by the imperial court at all, it is better to go to the Song Dynasty to open up territory for the Great Yuan Dynasty! ”

"Think about it, after these places were given to King Song, it was actually equivalent to letting King Song face these unscrupulous people around him and defend the capital, why not?"

The Queen Mother was silent after hearing this, obviously weighing the pros and cons.

Boyan said again: "This second, you and I didn't have to make much effort to get rid of Yan Timur this time, even if it was Shan Yuhu, it was recruited by King Song, and it can be said that it was all the work of King Song alone!" Such a merit, can King Song agree if he doesn't reward him heavily? If you don't reward you again, will anyone be willing to work hard for the court in the future? And our reward is so heavy, King Song naturally has to continue to work hard for the court, otherwise he will lose everything, isn't this a good means to control him? ”

"Hmm!" The Queen Mother still didn't speak, but nodded.

"And the third! King Song is extremely dangerous. He treats those who have not offended him with courtesy, and he trusts his subordinates very much, but his cruelty to his enemies is chilling! First of all, there was no one left left in the Emperor's Palace, and now there is no one left in the Yan Timur family, both things can be seen that King Song is brave and strategic, even those two or three hundred years old monsters may not be able to defeat him, let alone us? If we don't meet his desires, we fear that sooner or later we will incur disaster! ”

The Empress Dowager was silent again, and after thinking for a long time, she said: "Originally, I supported him to deal with Yan Timur, this is the balance of the first emperor, and he secretly taught me!" But now that Yan Timur is dead, if he is made bigger, won't there be another Yan Timur? When the time comes, what if the tail is too big to fall, and in turn it will be unfavorable to the court? ”

Boyan said: "Being invincible in the world doesn't mean that we can't deal with him, in fact, we can do a lot!" First, I heard that Princess Zhuoma is 7 years old this year, which is almost the same as King Song's son, the key is that she is very lovable, so it is better to use her relatives to control him! I'm sure that kid will like Dolma, and then there will be security! ”

"Second, we can restrict the women around that kid, so that women other than Dolma can't give birth to children for him, or even get close to him, so that he will naturally be controlled by us, and his offspring will be harmless!"

"Third, any hero like him is a hero who values fame rather than profit, we can give him more titles and official positions that are nice but not practical, so that he will yearn for the court, so that he can also contain him!"

I have to say that Boyan can become a powerful minister, and he still has vision! The first two items are basically reliable in theory, and if they can be implemented, they may be really effective. Of course, the third article is a bit ridiculous, saying that Gong Qianbai values his name and not profit, or because he doesn't know Gong Qianbai well enough, or rather, he still underestimates Gong Qianbai!

But this has been able to convince the Queen Mother. This woman, if she is said to be stupid, is sometimes more shrewd than anyone else; If she is not stupid, sometimes she likes to do stupid things, and she is also a woman who is incomprehensible!

Early in the morning of the second day, everyone knew about the destruction of the prime minister again, and also received the will of the queen mother to ask for the court, and almost everyone came to the gate of the palace early and exchanged news in groups.

They had to do this, because the vast majority of them were people of Yan Timur.

When the hour came, the palace gate opened, and the ministers rushed in, and when everyone entered the palace, the gate of the palace suddenly closed, and the inside and outside were full of guards, and the ministers were tightly protected in the Daming Palace.

"The prime minister has arrived!"

Everyone turned their heads to look out, only to see Boyan walking up to the Daming Hall with extraordinary momentum, and the guards on both sides of each place had to bow down and salute, and even the ministers who had ignored him in the past nodded when they saw it.

"Huh! This is the power of power! ”

Boyan was extremely proud. He controlled all the armed forces in Dadu overnight last night, and now he controls the entire court, isn't this world his?
