Chapter 371: The Most Ruthless King's Family (Part II)
When the prison official entered the palace and saw King Zhao, his face was so frightened that his face was not light, his sweat was dripping, he pounced, and knelt on the ground, "Minister, please meet the king." β
Zhao Wanghe asked, "Do you know, widow, why he summoned you into the palace?" β
The prison officer hurriedly said: "Minister, I don't know. β
"Do you really don't know, or do you pretend to be confused. Do you want to give you a reminder. Zhao Wang He said angrily: "How did the widow's queen mother die?" β
"Minister, I don't know."
Zhao Wang He said angrily: "If you don't say it, the widow will kill you and destroy your three clans." β
"Minister... Minister... Drunk... Babbling..."
Zhao Wang He said angrily: "Come on, pull it down and cut it." β
"The minister said."
King Zhao He was about to crack his teeth, and said angrily: "Who killed the widow's mother?" β
"Dai Anjun."
"How the widow believes in you?"
"The minister is in charge of the prison, and Zuo Sikou is responsible for the death of the queen. If the king doesn't believe it, he can summon Li Dui to ask, and he will know. β
"If you deceive a widow, you know what will happen."
"Minister, every sentence is true, don't dare to deceive at all." The prison trembled and said, "Your Majesty, the Great Priest also knows about this. The minister heard the conversation between the chief priest and the left priest in prison, and then..."
"Tonight, the conversation between the widow and you, you let the third person know."
"Minister, don't dare."
Wu Guang saw that the king waved his hand and sent the prison officials back.
Tears welled up in Zhao Wanghe's eyes, and his expression was sad. Wu Guang asked, "Your Majesty, do you want to summon the Great Sikou and Li Dui?" β
Zhao Wanghe nodded and said, "Call them into the palace." β
Wu Guang walked out of the main hall, found two henchmen, and explained a few words in a low voice. He returned to the main hall and asked, "Your Majesty, what if the death of the queen is really the work of Dai Anjun?" β
The corners of Zhao Wanghe's lips were bloody, "The widow wants to avenge his mother." β
Wu Guang was worried about his nephew's willfulness, and hurriedly comforted: "Dai Anjun is deeply loved by the lord's father, and he has made great achievements. The four counties of northern Xinjiang are loyal to him. There are not a few ministers in the DPRK and China who are loyal to him. Your Majesty, you still need to think twice. β
"Widow, I can't take care of so much." Zhao Wanghe gritted his teeth and was furious, "The widow wants to avenge his mother." β
Wu Guang asked, "Your Majesty, do you want to summon the Taifu?" β
"No need." Zhao Wang He said coldly: "Taifu is loyal to the master, if he knows, it will ruin our big things." β
"The king and Dai Anjun have a bad relationship, which is also equivalent to a bad relationship with the lord's father." Wu Guang asked solemnly: "Your Majesty, can you think clearly." β
"Widows naturally know what they're doing." Zhao Wang He paused and asked, "Grandfather, will also stand on the side of the widow!" β
"Minister, be loyal to the king." Zhao Wang He is his nephew, if he falls, Wu Guang will also fall. So far, Wu Guang has no choice.
Not long after, Gongzicheng and Li Dui walked into the main hall and saluted, "Meet the king." β
Seeing Zhao Wang He handing over a look, he comprehended, pressed the long sword, walked out of the main hall, and closed the door of the palace. Li Dui and Gongzi Cheng looked at each other, and a subtle look of joy slid over their cheeks. Above the main hall, there were only four people, Zhao Wanghe, Wu Guang, Gongzi Cheng and Li Dui, as well as flashing lights.
"Get up!" Zhao Wanghe raised his hand and said, "Please sit down."
"Thanks, Your Majesty."
After Gongzicheng sat down, he asked, "Your Majesty, you summoned us late at night, I don't know what it was for. β
Zhao Wanghe picked up a glass of wine, held it in the palm of his hand, stared at the two of them with his eyes, and asked straight to the point: "Master Zhao, the widow, and Dai Anjun, who do you two choose?" β
Gongzi Cheng was confused and said: "Minister, I don't understand what the king's words mean." β
Li Dui noticed that the atmosphere of the hall was secret, and the sword and axe hands were ambushed on both sides of the hall. The wine bottle in Zhao Wanghe's hand is also a signal. As long as their answer is not what Zhao Wang He wants. The result that awaits them is only one word... Die.
Li Dui discovered the vision and directly expressed his attitude, "Minister, be loyal to the king." β
Zhao Wang He asked coldly: "Da Sikou, who do you support?" β
Gongzicheng didn't expect Li Dui to take the lead in expressing his attitude, and he was not tactful, and replied: "Minister, also loyal to the king." β
Zhao Wanghe put the wine cup in his hand on the table, "You have chosen a widow." If you are confused, please answer. β
Li Dui arched his hand and said: "The king is confused, minister, you must do your best." β
Zhao Wanghe asked, "How did the widow's queen mother die?" β
Li Dui replied, "The queen was killed by the assassins. β
"The palace is heavily guarded, how can there be assassins." Zhao Wanghe was impatient, and reached out to pick up the wine bottle again, his eyes showing murderous aura, "This answer is not what the widow wants." β
"Please, the king, punish the sin." Li Dui saw the king's youthful temperament, he was simply decisive, and his killing intent was strong. If you play with him, he won't see the rising sun tomorrow. At this time, Li Dui also found that he had underestimated the person in front of him.
Zhao Wang He held the wine bottle and slowly raised it, "This is not what the widow wants to hear. β
Li Dui hurriedly said: "The death of the queen was committed by Dai Anjun. β
"Why don't you tell the widow?"
"The death of the queen is the responsibility of the minister. The assassin was a close confidant of Dai Anjun, so he was naturally familiar with the palace. After the minister's investigation, all the evidence pointed to Dai Anjun. β
"You know that the widow's mother was killed by Dai Anjun, why don't you say it."
"Your Majesty, you can't blame Zuo Sikou for this." Gongzi Cheng said again: "The minister and Zuo Sikou told Master Zhao about this matter. Master Zhao said that he put the overall situation first, intimidated us, and could not leak this matter. β
Zhao Wang He laughed and said: "The master father doesn't favor the widowed mother, why don't you avenge the widow's mother." β
Gongzi Cheng sighed: "The friendship between the master father and the queen is real. However, returning to Anjun also has a father-son relationship. Master Zhao's father said that his wife was dead, which was enough to make him sad. He couldn't bear to lose another son. β
Li Dui answered: "Dai Anjun was deposed, is this also the reason? Lord Zhao's father supported the king, also out of guilt for the queen. β
"Master Zhao chose to abdicate in his prime, saying that it was for the sake of Zhao and to avoid disaster. The widow believed. Lord Zhao's father supported the widow as the king, and Dai Anjun took the initiative to ask for recall, and the widow also believed it. The tears in King Zhao's eyes burst out of his eyes, full of hatred, "The widow didn't expect that this throne was actually bought by the queen mother with her own life." β
Wu Guang also sighed for a while: "Your Majesty, please mourn." β
Zhao Wanghe said in a cold tone: "Lord Zhao's father is for the overall situation, for the sake of father and son. Does the queen deserve to die? β
Gongzi Cheng ruled: "Your Majesty, the minister, what should not be said, I also said it." Please also ask the king to put the overall situation first, and don't let down the queen's hard work. β
Li Dui also said: "Your Majesty, Dai Anjun is powerful, and Lord Zhao is blessed by his father. If the king leaks traces, he will be known by Lord Zhao's father. Not only will our lives be at risk, but we will also threaten the hard-won throne of the king. For the sake of the overall situation, the king might as well endure the anger for a while. β
Wu Guang also said: "It is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge. Patience, O king. β
"Stand down!" Zhao Wang He put the wine bottle on the table, and said: "You told the widow about the death of the queen mother." The widow believes, your sincere heart. If there is a change in the situation, you will also support the widow. If the widow dies, you will also be buried with him. The widow believes that you will not be foolish enough to divulge this matter. β
"Minister, retire."
Out of the main hall, Gongzicheng asked, "Why did you rush to show your heart just now?" β
Li Dui said helplessly: "The king has arranged a knife and axe hand, if I don't show my heart." How can we get out of the temple alive? β
"What did you say?" Gongzicheng asked again: "The king has arranged a knife and axe hand." β
Li Dui nodded, "Wang Shang's temperament seems to be weak, but he is actually strong. If we do not show our hearts, surely the king will not tolerate us. β
"Your Majesty, how dare you kill us?"
"The king's wine bottle is the signal."
"It seems that the king is not easy to deal with." Gongzi Cheng saw that there was no danger just now, so he lowered his voice and said: "Your Majesty, you can't hold back your temperament, and go to find Master Zhao's father to confront him, so what." β
"The king is no ordinary man." Li Dui said with a smile: "How could you be stupid to go to Lord Zhao to confront it." The king is young, and he is also easy to agitate and provoke. After tonight, Lord Zhao's father, Wang Shang and Dai Anjun, father and son, the gap is deeper, and they must not be tolerated. β
King Zhao stabilized his mind and came to the palace.
Master Zhao's father was drinking with Dai Anjun, Tian Buli and others, and when he saw Zhao Wanghe, he hurriedly said, "Wang'er, did you also smell the fragrance of wine?" Wang'er, sit down quickly. β
Tian Buli said with a smile: "Your Majesty, although mare's milk wine is not as good as Zhao wine, it also has a unique flavor when you drink it. β
Zhao Wanghe drank a bottle, put down the wine bottle, and asked, "Master father, I have lost my mother in my heart." β
Although Master Zhao didn't know why Wang Er had such a question, but thinking of Mrs. Jun's Meng Yao, his eyes welled up with sadness, and he said sadly: "Lonely, I dreamed of your queen mother last night." She was the most important woman in my life. Lonely, how can you forget it. β
Zhao Wanghe drank another bottle of wine and suppressed the unhappiness welling up in his heart, "The master father still remembers the queen mother, and the child is really pleased." β
"Don't talk about these sad things." Master Zhao's eyes were full of tears, "Wang'er, Zhang'er, come to our father and son, and raise a bottle to greet you." β
After Master Zhao put down the wine bottle, he became more and more sentimental, "Lonely, over forty years old, although he is in the prime of life, he also feels powerless." The country of Zhao will be handed over to you. He'er, Zhang'er, you have to support each other and hold on to the country of Zhao. β
He Juzhu, the king of Zhao, said: "Child, I will guard the country of Zhao." β
Dai Anjun also said: "Child, I will assist Brother He to guard the country of Zhao." β
Zhao Wanghe asked casually, "Brother Zhang, have you ever thought of replacing me?" β
Dai Anjun laughed and said: "I'd rather be a general than a monarch." Me! Yearn for riding horses and whips, conquering the battlefield. β
Master Zhao raised the wine bottle again and said with a smile: "Zhang'er, He'er, let's welcome another bottle." β
Zhao Wanghe, Dai Anjun, raise the bottle and drink together.
Master Zhao put down the wine bottle and said with a smile: "Lonely and Zhang'er will discuss and travel to the sand dunes." He'er, why not travel with us? β
Zhao Wanghe asked, "Master, have you forgotten." Di Xin, who died because of the sand dunes. It's also the land of trapped dragons. β
"It's good that Dixin is dead, but it's not because of the sand dunes. If it weren't for Di Xin's expedition to Dongyi, Chaoge's troops would be weak. How could King Wu of Zhou challenge Di Xin. Emperor Xin conquered Dongyi and expanded his territory, and he can be regarded as a generation of kings. It's a pity that Heaven doesn't pity him. Master Zhao smiled and said: "Lonely, even Beihu can be used for it, how can you be afraid of the sand dunes." Even if the sand dunes are a land of trapped dragons, lonely, why be afraid. β
"In addition to the wine pond and meat forest of the king of the sand dunes, there are many natural and cultural landscapes, which can be described as beautiful." Tian Buli complimented: "Although the sand dunes are known as trapping dragons, how can they trap Master Zhao's father." β
Master Zhao laughed and said, "Not bad. Lone is not Dixin. The sand dunes can not be trapped alone. Lone also wanted to see what the beauty of the sand dunes was, which made Di Xin, Jiuchi Meat Forest, linger, so that he lost his country. Lonely, this trip is also to find a piece of feng shui treasure. Lonely, over forty years old, he should also plan for the future. β
King Zhao He bowed and said: "The master father plans to go to the sand dunes, child, as a companion." However, there are many national policies, and who should be handed over? β
Master Zhao smiled: "We will be back in a few days." The affairs of state affairs shall be handed over to the chief priest for disposal. β
"So said my lord." Zhao Wang He bowed again: "Child, you should go with you." β
The next day, Zhao Wang He held a court meeting in Congtai Palace, and handed over important national affairs to Gongzi Cheng, Li Dui and others. Another day passed, Zhao Zhufu, Zhao Wanghe, Dai Anjun and others traveled to the sand dunes. Here, the terrain is flat, the soil is generally sandy, and it is piled up into mounds everywhere, so it is called sand dunes. Because hundreds of years ago, the king of the wine pond and meat forest again, looking for fun, made this place even more famous.
At 10 o'clock in the evening, everyone arrived at the Dune Palace.
Zhao's father, Zhao Wanghe, Dai Anjun, Feiyi, Tian Buli and others held a simple banquet and slept peacefully. Everyone worked hard for many days, recuperated and played. At the end of the banquet, Lord Zhao's father and Dai Anjun lived in the first palace, and King Zhao He lived in the first palace. Feiyi, Tian Buli and other important ministers were settled in another place.
Fei Yi went to the resting place, and a person came and said, "Someone is with you who asks to see you." β
Fei Yi thought to himself who would come to see him so late, so he hurried back with a quick pace.
Seeing Feiyi's expression, Li Dui was full of horror and asked, "Are you very unhappy to see me?" β
Fei Yi asked, "Didn't Master Zhao order the Great Sikou and you to stay in Handan. How did you end up here. β
Li Dui floated over and said, "I am on the order of the king, and I am here to be the king." β
"King Qin?" Fei Yi asked, "What do you want to do?" β
"I have a deep friendship with Xiangbang, and I don't want to watch Xiangbang die in this coup d'Γ©tat." Li Dui said calmly: "Xiangbang, if you support the king, you will definitely be able to live." β
Fei Yi asked, "Do you want to rebel?" β
"Yes and what."
"You..." Fei Yi drew his long sword, pointed at Li Dui, and asked, "You are not afraid that I will kill you, a rebel and thief." β
"If we support the king, are we rebellious ministers and thieves? We are the kings of diligence and the great heroes of counterinsurgency. β
"Nonsense. Your Majesty, if you love your father and brother, how can you launch a palace change. Fei Yi said angrily: "The king must have been deceived and provoked by you. β
"Master Zhao's defeat has been decided. Xiangbang, why do you want to send your father to death for Master Zhao. β
"Li Dui, I didn't expect you to be such a villain, so you would plot against Master Zhao's father and dare to launch a coup d'Γ©tat."
"Xiangbang, you're not awake yet." Li Dui swore and said: "It is righteous for us to assist the king. The master father has power, and the people are resentful. If the master father does not die, Zhao Guo will not be safe. The king, how can he tolerate Lord Zhao's father. β
"In the name of the king, you have done rebellion. Do you know that you have deceived the king and others from you? But you can't hide it from me. With me, I won't let your treacherous schemes succeed. β
"Xiangbang is not loyal to the king, only death."
"I'll go to the king." Fei Yi shouted angrily: "I want to prevent this coup from happening." β
"It's too late." Li Dui high-fived, and a few black-clothed guards came in, "Xiangbang, I've already said more." You are killing yourself, no wonder I am. β
"What do you want to do?"
"Lend your head for a while."
"You..."
"Not bad." Seeing that he had guessed his intentions, Li Dui said calmly: "You are the starting point of this coup." If you die, we can frame the blame for Anjun. We can justifiably besiege the palace of the Lord in the name of counterinsurgency. Xiangbang has been for the country all his life and has done his best. After you die, we will bury you in the name of the hero. β
"Li Dui, you framed Dai Anjun and surrounded the lord's father's palace. You are not afraid of the world scolding you. β
"I'm telling you." Li Dui said coldly: "Why does the king hate Lord Zhao so much, and even, their father and son meet each other, it is all my credit." β
"I don't believe it."
"Look, what is this?" Li Dui took out the object and handed it to Fei Yi.
Fei Yi exclaimed: "This is the tiger talisman used by the king to mobilize the army, why is it here for you." β
"Now, you believe it." Li Dui put away the tiger talisman, "How strong is the king's hatred for Lord Zhao's father. Otherwise, the king would not have given me the tiger talisman and asked me to mobilize the army of Siyi and surround the palace of the lord's father. Xiangbang, knowing enough things. Xiangbang, you and I have worked together for many years, and I don't want to watch you die. I asked you, Lord Zhao, Wang Shang, Dai Anjun, who do you choose? Since you don't want to live up to Lord Zhao, you don't want to live up to the king. and I will fulfill your wisdom. β
"I hate myself for not finding out about you rebels and thieves sooner."
Li Dui was worried, and Chi Ze changed, and scolded: "Do it." β
