The king of Luoyang smiled coldly: It's not poisonous.

He pointed to the white jade cup with his hand: It's the matter of that cup, that cup is a jade medicine cup made by me with a special method, as long as you pour more than 20 years of wine into it, the wine will immediately become the most powerful drug, no matter how high your martial arts are, you can't use it.

Hearing this, Xiahou Yinglan looked at the king of Luoyang very sadly and angrily: Lord Wang, Yinglan is loyal to you, why do you ------ you do this to me?

The king of Luoyang said lightly: Because you have betrayed this king.

Xiahou Yinglan shouted: I didn't, I ------

Before he finished speaking, he fell to the ground and fainted.

The little emperor Zhao Heng walked back and forth in the hall with a heavy heart.

At this time, the third son of the personal eunuch hurriedly walked in from outside and reported to him: Your Majesty, Kou Xiang has arrived.

Hearing this, Zhao Heng's face showed joy, and he hurriedly said: Quickly invite Kou Xiang in.

The third son responded: Yes, the emperor.

Turned around and walked out again.

After a while, Kou Xiang walked in from outside, and when he saw Zhao Heng, he hurriedly knelt down and bowed and said: "Minister, Kou Zhun meets the emperor, long live my emperor, long live!"

Zhao Heng waved his hand: Kou Xiangping.

Kou Xiang got up from the ground and stepped aside.

Zhao Heng suddenly asked Kou Xiang: Kou Xiang, what should I do?

Hearing this, Kou Xiang was stunned for a moment, and then understood what the little emperor Zhao Heng said about what I should do, it should be referring to the matter between him and his brother, or rather, the matter of not letting him leave the throne.

But he made a look of incomprehension and said: Your Majesty, what to do, the minister doesn't understand.

Zhao Heng smiled bitterly, but didn't say anything, and continued to walk back and forth on the ground, Kou Xiang seemed to be able to calm down, and silently watched Zhao Heng walking around on the ground without saying a word.

Suddenly, Zhao Heng stood still, and then a sentence came out of his mouth: Kou Xiang, do you hate me very much?

Hearing this, Kou Xiang hurriedly bowed down and said with a panicked look: The minister doesn't dare, the minister definitely doesn't dare to hate the emperor.

Zhao Heng smiled and said in a self-deprecating tone: Don't dare to mean no, I once put you and Marshal Yang in prison, and almost killed you, can you not hate me. However, it was indeed my fault, and I regret it every time I think about it.

The little emperor can really bend down and admit his mistake in person, although it is in the absence of a third person, this is already very rare. Even if the emperor has done something wrong, there are a few people who dare to admit their mistakes. Because in the minds of the Chinese people at that time, the emperor will never be wrong, he will always be right, and of course, he can't be wrong. Otherwise, what the emperor said was Chrysostom and Jade Teeth, and Chrysostom and Jade Teeth represent eternal correctness.

Kou Xiang said lightly: Your Majesty, the ministers have forgotten about this matter, so don't mention it again. Besides, it was Wang Qin who hated the minister, not the emperor.

Forget, what about the liar, can you forget such a big thing, it's just prevarication. However, what can you say if you don't say that, you can really say, Your Majesty, I hate you to death, isn't that looking for death. Even if I don't kill you now, I'll have to kill you later.

Zhao Heng was puzzled: Kou Xiang, why do you hate Wang Qin, after all, it was my will to arrest you, you should hate me.

Kou Xiang hurriedly said: Your Majesty, the minister------

Zhao Heng didn't let Kou Xiang continue, waved his hand at him, interrupted him and said: Count

Now, let's not talk about it.

After a moment's pause, he continued: "Kou Xiang, I ask you a question, and if you think you can answer it, you can answer it, if it is inconvenient to answer, then you don't need to answer, I don't ask this question."

Kou Xiangdao: Your Majesty, if the minister can answer, the minister will definitely answer.

Although Kou Xiang didn't know what question the emperor was going to ask him, he could guess a rough idea, it must be something about his brother Li Yinglong, not to mention, this question is really not easy to answer, after all, it is the matter of the two brothers, or rather, it is not easy for outsiders to get involved.

Zhao Heng nodded, thought for a while, and asked: Kou Xiang, should I give up the throne to my brother?

Hearing this, Kou Xiang was stunned for a moment, and said in his heart: The emperor is really direct enough, it seems that in this matter, the emperor is so anxious that he can't sit still, and he began to ask for the opinions of the important ministers in the court.

But on this matter, Kou Xiang still has his own opinions, or rather, he has his own position. The matter related to the throne is not a personal matter, it is related to the stability and security of the country. Therefore, he will not hide his views on this matter, and he has also told the Queen Mother about his views and opinions on this matter before.

So he said very straightforwardly: The minister believes that the emperor should not give up the throne, the emperor has been in power for several years, and the country has been well governed, and the officials and people everywhere have recognized you as the emperor, if the emperor rashly gives up the throne, I am afraid that it will cause civil strife, which is not conducive to the stability of the country. It stands to reason that the emperor should give up the throne to your brother, because your brother is the real heir to the throne.

Hearing this, Zhao Heng nodded and asked: What do the ministers of the court mean?

Kou Xiangdao: The ministers of the court don't know what they mean, because the ministers haven't heard what they say.

But he secretly said in his heart: Even if I hear it, I can't say it, if you say it, you will still be on the throne after that, it is hard to guarantee that you will not retaliate against the ministers who want you to give up the throne, am I not a living example, I haven't said anything, you just suspect me and I will be sent to the prison, if it is not for the kid surnamed Li to be rescued, I am afraid that my head has been cut off by your order.

Of course, Zhao Heng wouldn't believe it, he said: It is impossible for the ministers in the court to not discuss.

Kou Xiangdao: Maybe there is, but the minister thinks that it doesn't matter, what matters is what the emperor's brother means.

Alas! Zhao Heng sighed: Then you don't need to ask, my brother must want to return to his throne.

Hearing this, Kou Xiangyi shook his head: Your Majesty, you are wrong this time, as far as the minister knows, your brother is indifferent to fame and fortune, he is not interested in this throne at all, and he does not want to be this emperor at all.

Hearing this, Zhao Heng's eyes lit up: My brother doesn't want to be the emperor, is it true?

Kou Xiang nodded: It's true, but he has to be if he doesn't want to.

Zhao Heng was stunned for a moment and asked urgently: Why?

Kou Xiangdao: Because the big group of people around him won't let him, and the emperor won't let you either.

Zhao Heng was confused by Kou Xiang's words, and asked in a daze: I won't let me, what do you mean?

Kou Xiangdao: There is no other day, if the emperor continues to be the emperor, then how can the emperor allow an emperor who is not the emperor to be by your side, so, in order to save his life, your brother must also take over the throne.

Zhao Heng seemed to understand a little, so he said: Kou Xiang means to say, if

I want to keep the throne and have to solve this problem, but how to solve it?

After a short pause, he suddenly asked Kou Xiang: Kou Xiang, do you have a solution?

Kou Xiang hurriedly waved his hand: There is no solution for the minister, but -------

Speaking of this, he pondered for a moment, and then said: Your Majesty, you should go to the Queen Mother, the minister thought, the Queen Mother may have a solution.

Hearing this, Zhao Heng hesitated: Looking for my mother, but -------

Then he fell into deep thought.

Kou Xiang took the opportunity to retire and said: Your Majesty, if there is nothing to do, the minister will retire.

Zhao Heng didn't speak, and waved his hand at him.

Kou Xiang bowed and retreated.

When the king of Luoyang and several generals were talking in the hall.

Qi Fu, the chief administrator of the palace, hurriedly walked in from outside, came to the king of Luoyang, and whispered a few words in his ear.

The king of Luoyang was stunned for a moment, and asked suspiciously: Why is she here, and where is she now?

Qi Fudao: Now in the living room.

The king of Luoyang got up from his chair and said to the generals: The generals will discuss first, and this king will deal with some things, and he will come back in a while.

With that, he walked out.

Zhao Ying sat on a chair in the living room and drank tea.

The King of Luoyang walked in from outside.

Zhao Ying hurriedly stood up from the chair and saluted to the king of Luoyang and said: "My daughter meets her father.

The king of Luoyang hurriedly pulled her to the two chairs and sat down, and then asked eagerly: Ying'er, why are you back? What about your mother, did you have an accident?

Zhao Ying smiled: We are fine, nothing happened, my mother also came, but did not enter the city, and now lives in the military camp outside the city.

Hearing this, the face of the king of Luoyang sank, and his voice became cold: You came with the imperial army, right, so you came to the city to see me this time to persuade me to surrender?

Zhao Yingyi waved her hand: The daughter went to the city to see her father because she missed her father, and it has nothing to do with the court, and the daughter is not interested in the affairs of the court and does not want to get involved at all.

The king of Luoyang didn't believe it: Then what are you doing with your mother in Luoyang City?

Zhao Yingdao: Does my father want to hear the truth?

King Luoyang said coldly: You say.

Zhao Yingdao: Then the daughter said it bluntly, what she said is not good, don't be surprised by the father.

After that, she paused and thought for a while before she said: The daughter is not optimistic about her father's side at all, and the daughter thinks that her father's side has no chance of winning at all.

Hearing this, the king of Luoyang was angry, he glared at Zhao Ying fiercely and said: Don't you have any confidence in your father's side?

Zhao Ying is very simple: Yes, there is no confidence at all.

The king of Luoyang nodded, and then admitted coldly: Ying'er, what you said is not wrong, with the current strength of the father, he can't win the court, but the court can't win if he wants to win me, the father was defeated in the battle in Kyoto, but the father did not suffer much loss, and the father still has 200,000 elite soldiers.

Besides, Luoyang City has thick walls, and the food and weapons in the city are very sufficient, so it should not be a problem to defend it for three or five years. Although three or five years is not a long time, it is not a short time, who can predict that nothing will change during this time, maybe there will be some turnaround, and the father may win the court.
