(Ask for collection and recommendation)

Lou was stunned for a long time and asked, "Did the assassin confess?" ”

Shao Junqian nodded lightly, "The evidence is conclusive, but the emperor is leading troops outside, so the palace doesn't want to reveal the news too early, so as not to startle the snake." ”

Lou Yan raised his hand and wiped it on his forehead, and muttered, "I thought it was Guangling...... Uh, what does Your Majesty want our father and son to do? An army of 100,000 is now encamped outside the city, ready to be drawn at any time, and within three months, the emperor will be captured alive and delivered to His Majesty. ”

Shao Junqian shook her head, "Once the war starts, it will inevitably be ruined, what is the crime of the soldiers of Jizhou, and they will be attacked by the heavenly soldiers?" What the palace means is that according to the soldiers, Huangfu and others have been ordered to go to Jizhou to recruit Huangfu to return to Beijing. ”

"Isn't this a return of the tiger?"

"Let the tiger return to the mountain first, if the Huangfu father and son return to Beijing according to the order, it is best to take it down by a few wrestlers, if the resistance does not return, the imperial court will raise troops to fight, and it will naturally be justified."

"That'...... What can we do? If the emperor returns to Beijing obediently. ”

"It must be the general sitting in Luoyang, and the 100,000 army is on standby at any time, so that Huangfu Kai can return to Beijing according to the order and avoid a disaster of swords."

Lou Jian suddenly realized, and suddenly felt a lot more relaxed, "It's too simple, the general was originally the commander of the army, stay in the capital for a while, and go to Qinzhou later." ”

"It's not easy." Shao Junqian sighed lightly, "Now there are rumors outside, claiming that Your Majesty is suspicious of the Lou family, but this is completely nonsense, the Lou family is the emperor of Tiancheng, Your Majesty grew up in the Lou family since childhood, and the name of the hard Chinese army is Junchen, and they are actually brothers." The general is the first general in the world, and the imperial court is relying on him to quell rebellions in various places. ”

"That's what I mean!" Lou Gong's voice choked, and he almost cried again, "Your Majesty and I ...... It's really like a brother......

"It's because of this affection that Your Majesty is usually rude to the hard Chinese army."

"Faux pas? That's a game between brothers, can I take it seriously? Am I dissatisfied? If Your Majesty is too formal, I will be disappointed. ”

Shao Junqian laughed, "Okay, with the words of the hard Chinese army, I can go back and give Your Majesty a satisfactory answer." Why didn't the seventeenth prince speak? Your Majesty values your opinion very much, and instructs me to bring it back exactly what it is. ”

The building base glanced at the hard building and did not speak immediately.

Lou said hard: "There are no outsiders, you can say whatever you want, our Lou family never hides their privacy in front of His Majesty." ”

Having said that, the look given by Lou Jian reminded Lou Ji to think about it.

Lou Ji had already thought about it, "The Lou family never hides their secrets in front of His Majesty, but this Shao Shilang ......"

"How old is the virtual age, if the seventeenth son is willing, he can call me 'Mr. Shao'."

"Does Mr. Shao have any such thing?"

Lou grabbed and said: "Don't be angry, Mr. Shao, my younger brother has been staying at home, and he has no understanding of the outside world, let alone the situation in the palace." He turned to Lou Ji and said: "Mr. Shao is the most trusted person of His Majesty, and he doesn't need anything to make an edict or a will......"

Shao Junqian said with a smile: "The suspicion of the seventeenth prince is reasonable, but I really don't have a decree, the fewer people who know about this matter, the better, once the decree is issued, even if it is a note, it will be leaked." The hard army knows how chaotic the palace is, and those honest and honest chamberlains may be able to get the benefits of the Huangfu family and find out the movements in the palace for them. ”

Lou nodded repeatedly, "That's right, that's it." ”

Lou Ji arched his hand and said: "I'm afraid that our two brothers are not qualified to agree to come down arbitrarily, so we must explain this matter to the general and listen to his decision." ”

"The general must be fine." Lou Hard deliberately emphasized the word "affirmation", almost to the point of gritting his teeth.

Shao Junqian nodded, got up and said, "Tomorrow, the general will be able to go home to rest, the two of you can discuss with him, and I will visit you the day after tomorrow." ”

"We must discuss, discuss how to deal with the Huangfu father and son, after all, they are still likely to rebel in the state." Lou Hard's attitude is resolute, for him, the slightest hesitation is disloyal to the emperor.

Shao Junqian said goodbye, the two brothers sent it to the gate, and seeing the guests boarding the car and walking away, the smile on Lou Hard's face disappeared, and he turned his head to Lou Ji and said angrily: "How dare you question Shao Junqian in person?" Even if you don't understand the feelings in the palace, it's good to ask me afterwards? Why did you say it at the time? ”

"I promised too happily, Your Majesty will be even more suspicious of the Lou family."

Lou Jian looked at Lou Ji with an incredible expression, "You guy, just praised you twice, you don't know how thick the sky is, don't play any tricks on Your Majesty, Your Majesty can see it, your little ability is a joke in the eyes of Your Majesty." ”

"The third brother is taught." Lou Ji didn't want to argue, he only confirmed one thing, he was different from Lou Hard Road.

Lou Hard was about to continue, the Shen family brothers happened to come galloping from a distance on horseback, Lou Hard immediately changed into a warm smile, and said loudly: "I thought about it in the center of the house, and I knew that you would come, so I went out to greet you." ”

Shen Cong and Shen Tan dismounted, greeted each other, and then entered the house together, the wine and food were all prepared, extremely rich, enough for twenty or thirty people to enjoy, the building was still not enough, and the cook was called in to reprimand him, and asked him to go through the family again, "Today is not as usual, this is the wedding banquet for the rest of the life after the catastrophe, take the best wine and the best dishes." ”

Before the dishes were finished, Lou Ji was full, and the Shen family brothers did not have much appetite, so the three of them drank slowly, watched Lou hard and feasted, and ate half of the table of dishes alone.

"Eater, heaven also. Why don't you eat it? Is the chef not good? ”

Shen Tan smiled and said, "How many people in the world have the belly of the Lou Zhongjun?" It's not that we don't eat, we really can't eat. ”

"Haha, you guys don't have a mouth."

The wine and food were withdrawn, the tea was served, Lou Jian and Shen Cong were more familiar, and they recalled the panic of being detained in the imperial city, and the other two couldn't interject.

Taking advantage of the hard building and Shen Cong to sigh, Shen Tan said: "The two brothers talked happily, I drank a lot, and I was a little dizzy, can I rest for a while at the Zhongjun house?" ”

"The amount of alcohol for children is too bad, I have a lot of places at home, so I can rest with you." Lou called in to take care of the servant and ordered him to take Shen Wugongzi to rest.

Lou Ji also got up to leave, Lou Gong waved his hand, and continued to chat with Shen Cong.

Out of the living room, Shen Tan arched his hand and said: "If the seventeenth prince has nothing important to do, it is better to sit together, you and I have first met, and we haven't talked enough." ”

"Just don't disturb the fifth brother's rest."

"Haha, I don't want to listen to the two of them talk useless nonsense, it's not really tired."

The hard mansion does not occupy a vast area as the General's Mansion, but the decoration is more gorgeous, and the building has long been taught, so I am no longer surprised this time.

Lou Ji thought that he would have to talk for a long time, but as soon as the servant left, Shen Tan said, "Shao Junqian has been here?" ”

Lou Ji nodded, it was this person he wanted to talk about.

"He went to my house in the morning, and asked the two brothers to go to Bingzhou as soon as possible, summon my father back to Beijing, and take over the forbidden army in place of Cao Shenxi, the Duke of Xiao Guo."

"His will to the Lou family is to take the opportunity to get rid of the Huangfu clan."

The two of them were silent for a long time, both thinking about the hidden meaning.

Lou Ji spoke first, "Your Majesty...... Is it to win the trust of everyone and persuade everyone to return to Beijing? ”

"It seems so, but what is the purpose of this move? Don't...... Could it be ......" Shen Tan didn't dare to continue.

Lou Ji didn't say anything, but the two of them had the same idea.

"If the six families are eliminated, the world will be in chaos, who will Your Majesty use to replace the important ministers of each family?" Shen Tan was puzzled, ""

"It may not be that all six will be eliminated, but one or two may be left."

"Hey, it's definitely not the Shen family. My father had supported King Guangling to be the emperor, although it was kept secret at that time, after His Majesty succeeded to the throne, he would definitely hear about it. Shen Tan paused, "It won't be the Lou family, not to mention anything else, just the fact that the general is in charge of the military is enough to cause death." ”

Lou Ji nodded, and suddenly understood that it was not two sympathetic people discussing a major matter together, but the fifth son of the Shen family was carefully trying to win over a target that might be useful.

Lou Ji was slower to react to this kind of thing, because he had never enjoyed this kind of treatment, only Ma Wei had done something similar, but it was his friend for many years, and it had been brewing for a long time, and it was not obtrusive.

"What does the seventeenth prince think?" Shen Tan asked.

"When I was young and ignorant, when I encountered this kind of thing, I was already panicked, and I had to listen to Fifth Brother Shen's advice."

Shen Tan smiled and said, "Seventeenth brother, you still have doubts about me." When it comes to the safety of your own family, it is right to be cautious. Okay, let me say first: After I arrive in Bingzhou, I will definitely persuade my father not to return to Beijing, no matter what the emperor promises, don't believe it, I will also send people to Jizhou and Jingzhou, and persuade Huangfu Kai and Xi Yun to stay still, if I have time, I will go there myself. The Duke of Xiao Guo was in the capital, and the Marquis of Guowu was in Qinzhou to quell the chaos, so these two people would not persuade them, so as not to show the rumors. As for the general, in my humble opinion, the best strategy is to lead the troops to the west as soon as possible and stay away from Luoyang. ”

"Your Majesty will not agree."

"That proves even more that Your Majesty has murderous intentions." Shen Tan held the two hands of the building and said with emotion: "The emperor is insidious and decisive, far beyond ordinary people, and he has endured the heroes of the court and the central government so far, and it must be uprooted at the same time, and it must be guarded against." Alas, our two brothers were too timid, and as soon as Your Majesty showed a little goodwill, they took it seriously, and did not dare to have the slightest suspicion. The survival of the two families depends on you and me. In extraordinary times, extraordinary measures should be taken, and the general must do something to turn the crisis into safety. ”

Lou Ji couldn't pretend to be confused anymore, and arched his hand: "I should try my best to persuade the general to leave Beijing, but I don't dare to guarantee that I can really succeed." ”

Shen Tan was overjoyed, "The movement of the general and the movement of the father are enough to make the emperor think twice." The seventeenth brother is dedicated to the sake of the family, the general is not a mediocre person, he will be able to understand the stakes and disadvantages, and he will be able to do it as soon as he says it. I will send someone to communicate with the seventeenth brother from time to time to exchange information, and the letter cannot be explicitly stated, just write 'unfinished chess game, can there be a move'? ”

"Very good, why don't we really play a game of chess."

Shen Tan also thought about it when he saw the chessboard and chess pieces on the table, and immediately agreed, played with the deacon of the building, and asked the servants to bring tea, without mentioning the emperor.

Lou Ji's chess skills are average, barely supported, and he is still pondering the emperor's intentions repeatedly in his heart - following the name and being responsible, he can't see the emperor's "reality" clearly, and he can't even tell what the emperor's "name" is.
