Chapter Eighty-Eight: Discussing a Coup d'État
After everyone got acquainted with each other and exchanged a few polite words, Lu Yunzhi said: "This time the stakes are very high, if you succeed, everyone here can worship the prime minister and seal the marquis to achieve a great cause, if you fail, it is the sin of killing the head, and this incident has nothing to do with my Zhongzheng lineage, it is all your own doing, you can understand." ”
Everyone looked at each other, not very understanding, Lu Yunzhi said: "It's easy to say that if you fail, it is inevitable that the Zhongzheng line will also be implicated, it's not that I don't want to share the weal and woe with everyone, but I just have a back hand, once you fail, you always need others to protect your life, if the Zhongzheng line is also involved, where can you estimate you if you are not flawless for self-preservation, so we are not working this time, that is to say, to provide you with a lot of convenience, but not to stand up, in fact, there is not much difference." ”
Shi Heng and the others snorted coldly in their hearts, saying it nicely, just to avoid suspicion, if it succeeds, Lu Yunzhi will get rid of Yu Qian's henchmen, and he will be able to dominate the dynasty even more, and he doesn't have to bear any responsibility if he fails, because these are all done by the rebels themselves, and they have nothing to do with him, at best, they claim that they are not well supervised, and so on, this Lu Yunzhi is really slippery,
Xu Bin asked humbly, a little unconfident: "Dare to ask Young Master Lu, what is our purpose this time, if it is just to overthrow Zhu Qiyu, it is not necessary, listening to the imperial doctors, the emperor is afraid that time is running out." ”
Fang Qingze continued: "I'll answer Brother Xu's question, there are two reasons, whether Zhu Qiyu dies or abdicates to make way for Xian, the candidate for the prince is nothing more than two possibilities, the first vassal king, the second Zhu Qizhen, the establishment of the vassal king is now the unanimous voice of Yu Qian and Zhu Qiyu, although you oppose it, but it is basically invalid, this vassal king's knowledge is great, no matter which vassal king must be in alliance with Yu Qian, I'm afraid you will have a hard time at that time, we are not afraid of anything, at most it is smaller, Secondly, even if Zhu Qizhen is reinstated, with the personal relationship between my third brother and Zhu Qizhen, we can also have a hundred benefits without any harm, you are different, although you are now our people, and you also insist on supporting Zhu Qizhen's reinstatement or establishing Zhu Jianshen as the crown prince, but this is compared to directly helping the emperor ascend the throne, which is more important I don't need to say, one is to dare to give direct advice, the other is the hero of the opening of the dynasty, your own choice tonight, in fact, then again, we are doing this for your good. ”
Xu Youzhen can be said to be loyal to Lu Yunzhi, if it weren't for Lu Yunzhi's promotion, he would still be suppressed as before, which is all blamed on Qian, so Xu Youzhen has the greatest hatred for Qian, and the enemy of the enemy is a friend, so in this group of people, except for Zhongzheng Yixin and Yang Shan Yang Zhun, who has long been inextricably linked to Lu Yunzhi, he is the most reliable.
Although Xu Youzhen is loyal, but he is not stupid, he knows that what Fang Qingze said is just a pretext, Lu Yunzhi's arrangement is very good, let this group of ministers of the DPRK and the central government come forward, and he is behind the scenes to manipulate the attack, retreat and defense, Lu Yunzhi has the greatest credit for success, and it has nothing to do with him if he fails, and even Lu Yunzhi may have a back hand to give Yu Qian a fatal blow, he believes in Lu Yunzhi's ability, and since he is here today, he has no choice, he has to send the arrow on the string, if he does not approve of Lu Yunzhi's actions, he may not be able to see the sun tomorrow morning,
Xu Youzhen said: "What is the arrangement of Young Master Lu, I, Xu Youzhen, will listen to the dispatch of the young master." ”
Lu Yunzhi nodded approvingly, and said: "Lu has thanked Brother Xu here, I will talk about the plan, and when I finish speaking, you can add if you have any opinions, first of all, we are not choosing ourselves out regardless of your life and death, we are in the dark, you are in the dark, one bright and one dark complement each other, and the clear-eyed people know that you are instructed by us, so once we fail, we will not be able to escape the involvement, you don't have to worry about this, I just said the benefits, the reason why we are in the dark, is because the energy required in the dark is greater, And you don't have the qualities to be in the shadows. ”
Everyone was silent for a while, Lu Yunzhi said bluntly and calmly, it is true, "First of all, the troops, Brother Shi is responsible for the defense of the capital and the inner city gate, when the time comes, your position is very important, that is, let Zhang Xuan lead troops into the city, Zhang Xun, you use the border army to report a thousand soldiers and horses into the city, then General Shi will give you the corresponding convenience, and the rest of the people will go to pick up Zhu Qizhen out of the South Palace, until the Inner Palace, and announce the reset." Lu Yunzhi said,
Yang Shan's brows furrowed, and he stopped talking, Lu Yunzhi looked sideways and said, "Elder Yang, if you have something to say, just say it." Yang Shan also said politely: "There are three questions, the first palace gate is not something we can control, what if it is blocked outside the door, the officers and soldiers patrolling the city are not easy to mess with, second, Yu Qian leads troops into the city, or what if the Great Inner Forbidden Army kills out, third, Nangong has recently sent additional defenders, and went to pick up Zhu Qizhen late at night, I am afraid that I will meet each other, and Yu Qian has a large army outside the city, in case I can't enter the palace in time, based on the above points, the dilemma is not to fail if it is attacked on both sides. ”
Lu Yunzhi looked at Yang Zhun, and Yang Zhun replied: "Uncle, don't be suspicious, Yunzhi has already made arrangements, first of all, I will respond in the play, with strong soldiers to help, all the officers and soldiers patrolling the city will be controlled by me, as for the palace gate, you can first take out Zhu Qizhen, let him open the city gate as the emperor, if not, we still have a backhand, it is inconvenient to disclose the secrets, as for the officers and soldiers outside the city of Yu Qian and the forbidden army in the interior, Zhang Wei 1,000 soldiers and horses entered the city to be used for defense and assault, of course, General Qin and General Guang will lead the troops to block the movement of soldiers and horses outside the city, Let's fight quickly, there is no fight outside the city, the city has been successfully restored, they dare not disobey the emperor's order, give everyone a reassurance, we also have Cao Gonggong in the palace to assist, once the situation changes, you can launch a small force at any time to disrupt the order in the palace, disperse the strength of the forbidden army, of course, if necessary, it is not impossible to hold Zhu Qiyu hostage to force the palace, but that is the next policy, until the last resort, we will not use it, as for the third point that my uncle is worried about, it is not enough to worry, you can go and respond, There are only three hundred people in Nangong, where Zhu Qizhen is located, maybe when you arrive, there will be no one left. ”
Yang Zhun closed his mouth without knowing what he said, and smiled coldly, everyone shuddered but didn't dare to delve into it, Yang Zhun's position is the safest, the so-called strategy in the play is not to show up like Shi Heng Xu Youzhen, even if the blame for failure does not fall on him, what Yang Zhun said just now is relatively clear, but there are vague words, but everyone does not argue, after all, Yang Zhun is Lu Yunzhi's father-in-law, and he can be regarded as a person in the middle lineage, and the rest of the people have no intention of wanting to compare with him, everyone is a smart person, and nepotism is used for eternity,
