Hou Pingpan was angry in his heart, it was a good birthday banquet, first he was disturbed by King Jing, King Qing, King Jianwang and others, and because of the emperor's unexpected visit and a little more accidental, what made him even more puzzled was that the emperor came to the birthday banquet of the Star King, neither entered the palace, nor did he let the officials who had arrived come out to greet him, the emperor's move had a deep meaning, as if he was warning the hundred officials, the emperor did not enter the palace and did not let the hundred officials welcome, it was for the hundred officials to save face, so that the hundred officials knew in their hearts, and knew who was the emperor of today's Great Xia, Who is the supreme authority.

What made Hou Pingpan even more angry was that Chai Lao'er went crazy after drinking and inadvertently revealed the secret that he and the Star King wanted to get rid of Li Dingshan. Thinking about it again, no, could it be that Chai Lao'er deliberately pretended to be crazy and stupid? He obviously deliberately used drunkenness to make trouble, avoiding the important and trivial, and did not want to respond to his question about the promotion of Li Dingshan as the middle of the imperial history.

When Hou Pingpan was about to ponder this matter, the Star King came to his side and whispered, "Chai Lao'er is crazy after drinking, don't pay attention to it." Take care of the king of good times, the king of Qing and the king of Jian, so that they will not take the opportunity to win over the officials. ”

Yes, this matter is the important thing, Hou Pingpan sobered up instantly, hurriedly turned around to take a look, and saw King Jing, King Qing and King Jian sitting between Zhang Yinong, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, Fu Xianfeng, the secretary of the Ministry of War, Shen Fuming, the secretary of the Criminal Department, and Li Shide, the secretary of the Ministry of Households. Only then did he realize that he had almost missed a big deal, so he nodded hurriedly to the Star King, and staggered towards King Jing's table.

The Star King's gaze looked in the direction where the firewood and stone pages disappeared, and glanced at Yan Hao in the crowd, Yan Hao understood, and quietly left.

Out of the door, Yan Hao got into a carriage and followed behind the staggering firewood page on the horse. Chai Shipage only brought two or three followers, and the people on the horse, with the body of the horse, no longer generous and sad, but chanted poetry loudly: "Eighteen years of reading the eunuch journey, this heart has been like a water for a long time." How to set foot on Chunming Road, and look at the immortal game diagram. The two groans outside the game are still the heart of victory and defeat in the world. It seems that the stubborn fairy is unconscious, and the spring breeze butterfly sleeps deeply. The smoke is dipped in water, and the slender waist is relatively Dou Wanting. Before the bottle, try to ask Xiangshan Lao, how many stars has Liusu added? ”

Although Yan Hao didn't read much, he also heard the hidden meaning of retreat in the poems of Chai Shipage, and couldn't help but smile coldly, secretly saying that if he wanted to retreat at this time, how could it be so easy! Today's events, King Jing and King Qing, King Jian, the three kings seem to have formed an alliance, and the Star King has the help of Hou Pingpan and King Yun, and he still needs the support of the various Shangshu. Chai Lao'er doesn't want to stay out of the matter now, the matter has reached the point where the sword is about to be revealed, and no one can be left alone.

followed another paragraph, and saw that there was nothing abnormal on the Chai Shi page, and it was indeed heading towards Chai Mansion, Yan Hao was relieved and turned around to go back to his life.

"Gone?" As soon as Yan Hao walked away, he immediately regained his senses, quietly looked back, and smiled secretly, "The old man's ability to pretend to be drunk is getting better and better, not only deceived Hou Pingpan, but also deceived the Star King and Yan Hao." Sheng Jie, you go to the palace quickly, and hand over the official to recommend Li Dingshan as the middle of the imperial history, remember, you must hand it over to Changguan yourself, not to others. ”

"Yes." The descendant named Sheng Jie is Chai Shiye's most trusted subordinate, and he has a body of martial arts, especially light skills, he took the order and left, and disappeared on the misty Anding River Bridge in a blink of an eye.

After Sheng Jie left, the firewood and stone pages walked for a while, and suddenly it rained lightly. There is not much rain in autumn in the north, but it is an autumn rain and a cold. Passers-by and pedestrians have avoided the rain, but the firewood and stone pages neither hide from the rain nor hurry up, but chant the poem again: "There are no good days for a long time, and the flowers in the spring are red." Right and wrong must be endured, half demented and half deaf. ”

In addition to the firewood and a horse in the rain, there were two attendants, and in addition to this, the pedestrians hid under the eaves to avoid the rain. The sound of horses' hooves on the bluestone road is like ringing the bell of the years, and in the sound of horses' hooves, the chanting of the firewood and stone pages gradually decreases, and together with his back, he gradually gets confused in the streets of the capital city in the smoke and rain.

After Yan Hao returned to the Star King's Mansion, he reported the whereabouts of Chai Shiye to the Star King, and the Star King nodded, drank a few glasses of wine with everyone before getting up and returning to the study.

King Yun and Hou Pingpan followed.

The Star King pushed open the window, and the rain outside was like silky wisps, although it was not like the slanting wind and drizzle in the south of the Yangtze River, it was also a rare silk rain in the north. The rain hit his face, slightly cool, bringing a hint of winter.

"It's cold, and it's going to be winter in a little more than a month." The Star King turned around and glanced at King Yun and Hou Pingpan, "The emperor's condition is good and bad, which is reassuring. I don't know if the emperor can survive this winter, now that all the officials are about to lose patience, there must be an ending. ”

King Yun was no longer as innocent as before at this time, he frowned slightly, and his face was worried: "Third brother, the eldest brother and the fourth brother have joined forces, and they have to push Li Dingshan to the front of the stage, it is clear that they are going to show their swords and swords." ”

"I've already shown my sword, haha." The Star King smiled, picked up a short sword on the bookshelf, and dialed the sword in his hand, "I didn't expect that the eldest brother was so scheming, and he had placed someone by my side early, and I trusted the dead soldier Xie Bi'an, that is, Xie Jianhua turned out to be the dead soldier of the eldest brother, I am a little afraid to think about it, in case Xie Jianhua does not do me well, I am afraid that I am already in a different place." ”

Hou Pingpan had an angry face: "Today's matter, not only the worry of King Jing and King Qing joining forces, but also the sudden arrival of the emperor, the emperor's heart is as deep as the sea, the emperor's move has a deep meaning, the emperor's illness, I am afraid that there is another hidden secret." ”

"Aren't all of the emperor's people around?" King Yun thought for a while and put his hands behind his back, "In addition to Jin Jia and Ye Muping, yes, there is also a Changguan, the imperial physician Zhu Baishui, Hou Guifei and many internal servants, aren't they all obeying the orders of the third brother and Hou Xianggong?" ”

"Imperial Physician Zhu repeatedly affirmed that the emperor's illness was indeed an incurable disease, and he also persuaded the emperor to stop taking the medicine prescribed by Jin Jia, and stopped using the medicine bed and medicine chair - speaking of the medicine bed and medicine chair, Xia Xiang really deserves to be killed, and he has to do a lot of things - and persuaded the emperor to take more Ye Muping's Jin Dan, and the emperor did it one by one, why does the emperor seem to be in good spirits today?" The Star King pondered for a long time, and suddenly a sword slashed on the corner of the table, and the corner of the table of Tie Limu was actually cut off by the short sword in his hand, "It can be seen that the emperor's illness is indeed very hidden, I am afraid that Imperial Doctor Zhu and Concubine Hou were deceived by the emperor, and the emperor united Jin Jia and Ye Muping to show us a good show." ”

"What does the third brother mean......" King Yun made a gesture of raising and falling with a knife, "Quickly cut through the mess, can't it be delayed any longer?" However, in addition to Chang Guan, Jin Jia and Ye Muping, there were also commanders in front of the palace to make Ye Shisheng loyal to the emperor. Ye Shisheng does not return to obedience, and it is difficult to achieve great things. ”

"Isn't Ye Shisheng obeying the orders of His Royal Highness the Star King?" Hou Pingpan remembered the incident of the last Gongyuan.

The Star King shook his head and showed a wry smile: "I did Ye Shisheng a favor a few years ago, and he remembered it in his heart, and he returned the favor last time he paid the tribute." Ye Shisheng was only loyal to the emperor, and it was impossible to pull him over. ”

"In front of the palace, Cui Changzai has always had close contacts with the third brother, if he cooperates, great things can be done." King Yun had a thoughtful look, with a thoughtful look that was incommensurate with his age, "Although the younger brother is also the deputy envoy of the privy council, he is at odds with the prefect Zheng Chuanfu. Zheng Chuanfu believes that he is a member of the Zheng family in Xingyang, and his eyes are too high, and he doesn't even care about his younger brother, the fifth prince. ”

Hou Pingpan nodded and said: "The front of the palace is the commander of the 200,000 forbidden troops in the capital, and Cui Chang is in danger of the world. It's just that although Cui Changzai is friendly with His Royal Highness the Star King, his two subordinates are both commanded in front of the palace, Ye Shisheng and Ma Bujun in front of the palace, and Ming Wangqi are both loyal to the emperor, and it is difficult for Cui Changzai to contain the two of them. Ye Shisheng led the cavalry of the forbidden army, and Ming Wangqi led the cavalry of the forbidden army, if one of the two people obeyed Cui Chang's orders, it would be much better. ”

"Don't forget, the eldest brother is also in charge of the military department. The military department has the power to mobilize troops, but it does not have the right to transfer troops. The Privy Council has the power to transfer troops, but it has no power to use them. Cui Changzai led 200,000 forbidden troops, but he still had to be balanced by Ye Shisheng and Ming Wangqi. The Star King sighed and shook his head, "The emperor's heart is as deep as the sea, and it seems that he is seriously ill in bed, but in fact, he is fortified everywhere, everyone is restrained by each other, and it is difficult to succeed as if he wants to succeed." ”

The few people talked about the big things of rebellion, but they talked about ordinary things.

"His Royal Highness the Star King, in my opinion, there are three ways to do it." Hou Pingpan smiled confidently, "The first way is naturally to let the emperor follow the way of heaven and return to heaven with peace of mind." Since the emperor is the son of the Emperor of Heaven, returning to Heaven is also the destiny of Heaven. As for how to make the emperor return to heaven, if Imperial Physician Zhu can succeed, it will be fine, if Imperial Physician Zhu is useless, he will have to use the second method - let Yan Hao go out! Since the founding of the Great Xia, Taizu and Taizong have successively sealed Mount Tai, and since the emperor ascended the throne, he has not been to Mount Tai. The road to Zen is far away and rugged, and it is reasonable to have any mistakes on the way. ”

Without waiting for Ping Pan to finish speaking, the Star King waved his hand again and again and said: "The emperor has Jin Jia on the left and Ye Muping on the right, and Imperial Physician Zhu is afraid that it will be difficult to start." As for the matter of sealing Zen, it is not feasible, the emperor thinks that he can't compare with Taizu Taizong's martial arts, and he doesn't dare to go to seal Zen with Taizu Taizong. ”

"It's okay not to seal Zen, you can write to the emperor to go to the Zhending Big Buddha Temple to worship the Buddha." Hou Pingpan couldn't make a plan, and he had another plan, "It must be the land of Longxing, and there is a big Buddha temple sealed by Emperor Taizong." Although the emperor believes in Taoism, he does not reject Buddhism, and seeing that this winter is the 150th anniversary of the birth of Emperor Taizong, he went to the Big Buddha Temple with the name of the temple inscribed by Taizong to pray for the blessings of all the people, and the emperor will be happy to go. At that time, the emperor fell into the water in the Hutuo River, or suffered from the wind and cold, or was frightened, or assassinated, and all kinds of changes were unpredictable. When the time comes, the fault will be put on Xia Xiang of Zhending Zhixian County, and it will kill two birds with one stone, wouldn't it be wonderful? ”

"Xia Xiang......" As soon as the Star King heard Xia Xiang's name, a smile appeared in his mind with the corners of Xia Xiang's mouth slightly slanted and his eyes narrowed, and he couldn't help but snort coldly, "It's a good way, but it's just that letting Xia Xiang fall off the horse like this, isn't it too cheap for him?" There must still be a lot of pits waiting for him to jump into. ”

"Don't care about Xia Xiang first, Xia Xiang is a seven-pin county, it has nothing to do with the overall situation, and it is not even a chess piece...... Let's talk about the third way. King Yun was eager to know what other tricks Hou Pingpan had.

"The first method is to dive into the night with the wind, moisturizing things silently, which is the best policy. The second method is to level the ground and thunder, which is the middle strategy. Hou Pingpan's face was solemn, and he held his beard, "The third method is to break the sky and the earth, which is the next step." ”

The Star King guessed Hou Pingpan's thoughts: "Raise troops? ”

"Your Highness is wise." Hou Pingpan nodded slightly, and continued, "The 200,000 forbidden troops in the capital are loyal to the emperor, and Your Highness should not forget that there are still 600,000 local forbidden troops in Great Xia, distributed in Zhending Mansion, Rehe County and Taiyuan Mansion. Moreover, half of the 200,000 forbidden troops in the capital are in the capital, and the other half are outside the capital. ”

"That's right, the Prime Minister woke up the dreamer with a word." King Yun clapped his hands and applauded, "If you can mobilize the forbidden troops of Zhending and Rehe, 200,000 each, a total of 400,000 forbidden troops, and surround the capital, you can divide the 200,000 forbidden troops in the capital into two. ”

"Ye Shisheng is stationed in the capital, Ming Wangqi is stationed outside the city, echoing each other from afar and restraining each other from afar, as Hou Xianggong said, 400,000 forbidden troops from the local government will be transferred into Beijing, 200,000 will contain Ming Wangqi, and 200,000 will besiege the city, and it can indeed be decided in a war." The Star King held his cheek with one hand and looked out the window, "It's okay to say that the Zhending Mansion is under the jurisdiction of Cui Xiang, and the commander of the Zhending Mansion Forbidden Army is Wu Yidong, who is only under Cui Xiang's orders." It's just that the commander of the garrison forbidden army in Rehe County makes Li Zhengyu very loyal, and he is Ye Shisheng's subordinate. What is the magistrate of Rehe County? ”

"Zhang Hou, the same year as Xia Xiang." Hou Pingpan smiled smugly, "Your Highness doesn't have to worry too much, when Zhang Hou was appointed as the magistrate of Rehe, he buried a chess piece for today's major event." Rehe County is located in the fortress place, although it is a small county, the garrison forbidden army is the same as Zhending Mansion and Taiyuan Mansion, which is for the purpose of guarding against the north. At that time, many people wondered why I sent Zhang Hou to Rehe to serve as the magistrate, although Rehe County was small and poor, it was a large military county, and the second was also because of the discord between Zhang Hou and Xia Xiang. ”

"Zhang Hou can be used by this king?" Star King admires Hou Pingpan the most is his wisdom and long-term wisdom in knowing people and being good at their duties, among this year's Jinshi, he only noticed Xia Xiang, Shen Bao and Teng Zhengyuan, and did not pay much attention to Zhang Hou. I didn't want to wait for Pingpan to plan in advance, and installed Zhang Hou to take office in Rehe County for the sake of the garrison forbidden army in Rehe County.

"When Zhang Hou was in the imperial examination, he went to King Qing's mansion to surrender, but was rejected by King Qing. Zhang Hou was pretentious and competitive, and complained about Xia Xiangjinshi's ranking above him. Xia Xiang was appointed as the county magistrate, and he was even more dissatisfied, thinking that he should be above Xia Xiang. "Hou Pingpan has been in officialdom for many years, and he has seen a lot of people in the officialdom who are keen on fame and fortune," Zhang Hou wanted to visit at that time, but was rejected by His Royal Highness. Therefore, as long as His Royal Highness shows a little favor to Zhang Hou, Zhang Hou will be grateful and swear to follow. ”

"Zhang Hou has jurisdiction over the forbidden army stationed in Rehe County, and if he follows this king, it will indeed be a great help." The Star King groaned slightly, slightly happy, "Okay, Zhang Hou's matter will be handed over to Prime Minister Hou to deal with." ”

"Your Highness, I intend to send Xiong Shiwang, the servant of the Ministry of Officials, to Rehe County for a trip, and in the name of inspection, he will give Zhang Hou'er an order." Hou Pingpan already had an idea, "I will personally repair a book, and Xiong Shiwang will hand it over to Zhang Hou." ”

"That's very good." The Star King was in a good mood and walked a few steps back and forth in the room, "Fifth brother, according to your intentions, which one to choose?" ”

"The last one is too sinister, you can press it first and not mention it." Although King Yun is young, he is not an innocent child, he knows that the crime of rebellion is not trivial, he can only win and not lose, and there is no way to retreat, "Raising an army to rebel is the next policy, and it is not a last resort, but it should not be taken lightly, what should be done is still to be done in front, in case the upper and middle strategies are revealed, when it is time to raise troops, you must also raise troops." According to the younger brother's opinion, the first policy, if it doesn't work, then the middle policy, and finally the next policy. After all, even if the army is raised now, it is not the right time and the preparation is not sufficient. ”

The Star King nodded: "This is what I want." Yanhao ......"

"Yes." Yan Hao stood outside the door and responded, "Your Highness! ”

"You go and hand over this jade bottle to Imperial Doctor Zhu and give him three days." The Star King took out a thumb-sized jade bottle, the jade bottle was crystal clear, the texture was first-class, and it was extremely exquisite, "Within three days, if there is no news of the emperor's return to heaven, let him cut it off on his own." ”

"Yes." Yan Hao took the jade bottle, turned around and left, walked to the door and suddenly stopped, "Your Highness, according to the villain's opinion, no matter whether Imperial Doctor Zhu does this or not, it is best to go down with a knife......"

Yan Hao's right hand turned into a knife and slashed in the air.

The Star King nodded, Imperial Physician Zhu knew too many things, and it was still the safest for the dead, and he remembered something, and said: "Dong Qiniang and Dong Si don't have to worry, you don't have to provoke them, Xie Jian ......"

"The villain understands." Yan Hao caught a glimpse of the killing intent flashing in the eyes of the Star King, he knew that the Star King hated the mutinous person the most, and if Xie Jian did not get rid of it, the Star King could not understand the hatred in his heart.

"Xie Jianhua is not a matter of concern, His Highness doesn't have to worry too much about such a trivial matter, but it is Xia Xiang that is worthy of His Highness's attention." Hou Pingpan took out a letter, "Xie Huagai sent a letter, after Xia Xiang took office in Zhending County, he continued to move, and there were many amazing moves, which made him very uneasy. ”

The Star King did not accept the letter in Pingpan's hand, and frowned slightly: "It's just a small Qipin Zhi County, how much splash can it make?" Cui Xiang, as the prefect of Zhending, can't suppress a prefect? ”
