Chapter 15: Assassination

To tell the truth, Wang Li was very frightened in the past two days, and was inexplicably promoted by the prime minister to serve the emperor and become the first eunuch in this palace.

But he came with a task, that is, he had to report the emperor's words and deeds to the prime minister.

Everyone in the palace knows that His Majesty has no opinions, and he acts in accordance with the instructions of the prime minister in all affairs, and originally thought that this was a good errand, but who expected that since he served the emperor closely, although the emperor still supports the prime minister's decree as usual, but under his delicate observation in his heart, the emperor is not as weak as rumored, without opinions, without thoughts, and without pursuit.

Take the two days of getting up every day to practice, it is estimated that no emperor can do it, and this has been three consecutive days.

Also, the queen, who was originally domineering, has also been obedient to the emperor in the past few days, and the emperor said one, but the queen did not dare to say two.

Moreover, the emperor has issued several holy decrees in a row, none of which were instructed by the prime minister.

In the end, the story of the divine right of the monarch has spread in the palace, and everyone in the palace knows about it, although some people are skeptical, and it also takes time to verify, but after all, the news conveyed through the court is of an official nature, far from being comparable to boring gossip.

No, yesterday he ordered himself to find someone to convey the news to the outside world, and the most important thing was himself, who also shouldered the order of delivering the news.

With a nervous mood, Wang Li summoned a group of eunuchs, palace maids, and guards in the Anle Hall to gather in the courtyard and wait for the emperor's training.

The autumn sun hung high in the sky, making everyone's foreheads sweat, but everyone endured it in silence, after all, they were facing the emperor, and everyone knew that the emperor was investigating a person who had delivered news to King Liang.

Although this person was not investigated and punished, everyone knew that such a person must exist.

As the emperor's close attendant, he will always receive attention, filial piety and constant bribery on weekdays, just hoping to deliver a message at a critical moment, which is something that cannot be avoided in any dynasty.

Finally, while everyone was anxiously waiting, the emperor walked out of the side hall, followed by the queen and the two concubines.

"Minister, slave and maid knock to see Your Majesty, Queen, two mothers!" The crowd knelt down.

Liu Rong walked to the center of the hall, behind him was the chair bed prepared by Wang Li, he stood in front of the chair bed, looking down at everyone, and then turned his head to look at the plaque hanging in the center of the hall beam, writing Anle Hall, he frowned.

"What a broken name, the place where I live, how can the name be so cheesy?" He complained and said, "Wang Li, I ordered you to change this plaque, from now on, this place will be called the Palace of Raising the Heart!" "At the same time, I thought in my heart, one day, I will move this Heart Nourishing Hall to the new capital, and the scale will be expanded tenfold!

"No!" Wang Li bowed his head.

Solving the discomfort in his heart, Liu Rong sat down in the chair and bed, leaned slightly and leaned on the armrest. Look around.

In the previous life, the big leaders sat like this, quite majestic.

"Get up, look up at me!" Liu Rong said loudly.

Everyone got up and looked up at the emperor.

I saw that the emperor's brows were furrowed, and his eyes emitted a breathtaking light, sweeping over everyone in the courtyard.

"This is my place of life, and it is also a place for me to relax, where I can speak and do things without any scruples. But every behavior I do here will be known to the world? Tell me, why is that? ”

Everyone trembled in their hearts and knelt down one after another.

Liu Rong continued, "In the past two days, I have not been in the court, and I have never been out of this peace hall, but the matter of my lack of strength in practicing martial arts has long been spread outside, this small thing is enough to shoot a big thing, and today I pass on my lack of physical strength, which is harmless, but what about the future?" It is inevitable that more confidential and powerful things will be spread. In the long run, what majesty do I have for the world? You are honored and respected, but have you ever thought about it, what is the reason for these benefits? ”

After a pause, he said heavily, "It's me, it's the honor of the Son of Heaven's close servant, which makes you and others awe-inspired, but how do you repay this honor?" ”

Everyone was speechless again, and Liu Rong didn't expect them to say anything.

If he could, he really wanted to kill all these people, but no, there was no one to change, no confidants, and if he did, it would only be a change of soup and not a change of medicine. Second, it's still the same sentence, I'm new to the city, it's better to do less earth-shattering things, and kill all the attendants? It's ridiculous to spread it.

Thinking of this, Liu Rong's tone softened and asked, "Whoever delivered the news to King Liang, stand up for yourself!" Stand up yourself, I don't ask about his guilt, I just want to ask you, what is so good about King Liang that is worthy of your service? You don't joke, I do what I say! ”

After saying that, he looked around at the crowd and asked, "Has anyone come forward?" Liu Rong was tempting.

No one came forward, and after a while, no one came forward.

This made Liu Rong a little helpless, and his face was full of embarrassment.

Just when Liu Rong was about to compromise and was about to get up and say something inspiring, he saw the little monkey running out of the side hall wet, chirping, and jumping into Liu Rong's arms.

"You don't!" Liu Rong was clever, jumped up from the chair, pinched the little monkey's neck, and pressed it to the ground, saying, "I just changed my clothes, stay by the side honestly!" ”

After Liu Rong got up after speaking, he heard the little monkey chirping twice, but he obediently lay on the ground and did not move, like a docile puppy.

He didn't notice it, but the little monkey's eyes were dripping, and when it focused its gaze on a person in the courtyard, it didn't move.

Liu Rong looked around the courtyard again and was about to speak, but the little monkey moved again under his feet.

It's just that at this moment, the target of the little monkey is not him, but the courtyard. I saw the little monkey baring his teeth, running towards the courtyard, jumping onto the shoulders of a guard, and grabbing the guard's face.

Everyone in the courtyard was originally kneeling with their heads bowed, but when they felt it, the little monkey had already scratched it, and one of his cheeks had three blood marks, and the blood flowed.

Liu Rong glared, pointed at the guard, and said angrily, "The guards listened to the order and tied him up for me!" ”

His roar also made the little monkey a little frightened, and immediately jumped a few times, climbed the branches and jumped to the wall.

Such a shocking change, the emperor's anger, made all the guards frightened at the same time, but at the same time they also thought that the emperor was angry because of that monkey. At that moment, they all got up and ran towards the wall where the little monkey was, and the little monkey was frightened and jumped out of the wall. The guards swarmed and ran out of the hall.

Wang Li and even all the palace maids got up and ran out of the hall to catch the little monkey.

"Huh!" Liu Rong was instantly dumbfounded!

"Come back, Lao Tzu asked you to tie up this guard!" But at this moment, there was a burst of black outside the hall, and no one heard his words at all.

Liu Rong looked at the courtyard again, only to see the guards who were scratched by the little monkey, who had already gotten up at this moment, slanted his mouth, stared at his eyes, his expression was full of anger, he took out a dagger from his arms, and slowly walked towards Liu Rong, and said as he walked, "Emperor Xiaoer, I really didn't expect that you were so smart, so you thought it was me?" Yes, it's me, but so what? I received the favor of King Liang, I will report it today, as long as I kill you, the ministers of the court and the central government have the queen mother as the waist, and they will help King Liang to succeed to the throne. ”

Liu Rong saw that this guard was seven feet tall, with big shoulders and a round waist, and he was definitely not his opponent after only exercising for a few days. All the palace maids, even the Li family and the Wang family, were all frightened.

"Run?" Liu Rong thought.
