Chapter 368: Wang Xing offered auspicious rui and persuaded Wang Mang to become the emperor
At this time, all kinds of miracles and strange beasts broke the news from all over the Han Dynasty.
"Uncle, have you heard? Recently, all over our Han are auspicious! Someone found a dragon in a thousand-year-old well. Someone else found a unicorn in the field. There were even phoenixes in Yiling and other places. In the hall of the inn, Wu Han, the pavilion chief, said to Uncle Zhao.
"Pavilion Chief Wu. I've heard about it too. These things are really rare in a thousand years! I've also heard that springs have been flowing from dry wells that have been dry for decades in many places recently. The water of the Yellow River became crystal clear overnight. What a surprise! ”
Uncle Zhao thought to himself: Could it be that our Han is really going to appear a saint who is rare in a thousand years? Then our people really have to have a good life!
"Actually, Uncle Zhao. I always thought someone was playing tricks. These things came too suddenly. It even strikes me a little unbelievable. ”
Wu Han took a sip of wine and said with a smile.
He thought to himself: Since Zhai Yi's rebellion was put down by His Majesty the Emperor, there have been more and more auspicious people in the imperial court. I always felt that someone was deliberately trying to curry favor with His Majesty the Emperor, so they were deliberately pretending to be a ghost. Otherwise, how could this be?
"No, it won't. I think that our people are about to live a good life! How can there be a mistake in the meaning of God? You can't go wrong! ”
Uncle Zhao became cheering.
He began to dance and shouted, "The ancient Yao Tianshun Sun is finally going to be presented today!" Let's have a blast! ”
The people in the inn also convulsed to their heart's content.
Wu Han looked at their expressions and fell into deep thought:
Can Wang Mang really bring us peace and prosperity? In recent years, Wang Mang's new policy, especially Wang Tianling, has basically treated the symptoms but not the root cause. Although the people were given the land, they did not know how to manage it.
The people are basically developing the land at will, and if this continues, not only will the grain not increase the output, but will cause famine! However, the current civil and military officials are avoiding the important and trivializing the peace. If this continues, our big man will really fall into a crisis!
So, who planned so many auspicious rui?
Of course, it was Wang Mang's son Wang Lin.
Wang Lin was at the Wang family's mansion at this time talking to his uncle Wang Shun about the recent auspicious events.
"Uncle. I also sent someone to get a lot of auspiciousness. But why is my father still unwilling to be the real emperor? Is the position of the emperor so terrible? My father seems to be planning to die in the position of the emperor! ”
looked at Wang Lin's long sigh and lifeless appearance.
Wang Shun's eyes revealed a fierce light.
He smiled, "Nephew." You just want to be the crown prince so much! Now your father doesn't want to be emperor. He just doesn't take the initiative too much, which makes him appear to be a traitor who usurped the throne. We need to give him enough face. In this way, your father is willing to be the true emperor. ”
Wang Lin smiled: "Uncle is really experienced!" His father was born as a student. He cares about his reputation, so he will definitely not take the initiative to usurp the throne. We need to make it reasonable for him to take the throne. That's what he needs! ”
"Xiangrui still needs to continue to give. Until your father is willing to be the true emperor. Wang Shun said with a smile.
Wang Shun thought to himself: Since Wang Mang is hypocritical. We're going to give him enough face. Let him not be the emperor in the end, it seems that he can't stand the people of the world.
"Being an emperor is actually not so dangerous! Only when you are an emperor can you have three palaces and six courts, and only then can you have seventy-two concubines! There are ten thousand taels of gold. Wang Lin said with a smile.
"Nephew, do you want to think about Yuan Bi. He's the woman you love the most. But now, your father likes her, too. If your father ascends the throne tomorrow and becomes emperor. Well, I'm afraid you won't get her! ”
"Uncle. I like Yuan Bi though. But compared with the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains of the Han Dynasty, I can still tell which is more important! Wang Lin said seriously.
He thought to himself: Yuan Bi is indeed a good girl. It's a pity that I won't get her again in this life. In order to be able to become the crown prince, I can only endure it. In order to be the emperor, I can only give up Yuan Bi. You can't win 'em all.
Wang Shun thought to himself: In fact, Wang Lin is a person who can do anything in order to get the world. If Wang Mang is located in him, I am afraid that the catastrophe of our Wang family will come. However, Wang Mang now only has two sons, Wang Lin and Wang An.
How do I think I can assist Wang An?
Wang An is the hope of our Wang family. He treats his subordinates politely, if he continues Wang Mang's position, our Wang family will be able to live for generations and be famous for eternity! Otherwise, Wang Lin will inherit Wang Mang's inheritance. Our Wang family is finished!
Just when Wang Lin was still talking about Yuan Bi with Wang Shun, the two people at the gate of Chang'an City were chatting at this time. Their small talk is about to change the fate of all the people in the world.
"Selling scallion pancakes...... Sell scallion pancakes......" Wang Sheng shouted at the gate of Chang'an City.
However, even if he shouted so loudly that his voice was hoarse, no one paid attention to him at the gate of Chang'an City.
"Wang Sheng. It's useless. Now the people have gone to see Xiangrui. I've heard that keels have recently appeared again. Or the skull of a dragon. Wang Xing, who was guarding the city gate, said with a smile.
"Indeed, there have been too many auspicious lately. What unicorns, phoenixes, dragons, and pixiu all appeared. It's really evil! Wang Sheng said in surprise.
Wang Xing thought to himself: Indeed! I think someone must be playing tricks. But you can't say you can see through it. We still have to continue to pretend to be gods and ghosts until His Majesty the Emperor ascends the throne and becomes emperor. Only then can we stop making auspicious things.
At this moment, Wang Xing's eyes rolled, and a plan was thought of.
He turned to face Wang Sheng and said with a smile: "I have a trick that can make you prosperous and rich." And there's no need to continue selling scallion pancakes. ”
"What the hell is it? You're not kidding me, are you? How is that possible? Wang Sheng didn't believe it at all.
"Wang Sheng, I heard that you know the Emperor?" Wang Xing, who was guarding the gate of Chang'an, said with a smile.
"Yes! Although I am a bread seller, I am also a person who shares the hardships with His Majesty the Emperor! Wang Sheng said proudly.
"That's it! I now feel that we can present a heaven-sent edict to His Majesty the Emperor. In this way, His Majesty the Emperor can rightfully ascend the throne and become the emperor. Our good days are coming! ”
"Good idea. We can do that. So, how are you going to write this God-given edict? Wang Sheng whispered. His voice was utterly mosquito-snorting, and he was afraid that someone would find out about their scheme.
"Actually, it's not that hard. Let's write a copy now. Then he pretended to be a messenger from heaven and handed it to the night watchman in front of the temple. Naturally, they will tell His Majesty the Emperor. Wang Xing said with a smile.
So, can their plan be realized?
