Chapter 431: Internal and External Collusion

p

After leaving the palace, Wang Guobao returned home and changed into his regular clothes and secretly drove to the palace of the king of Huiji.

At this time, Sima Daozi was already resting, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised when he suddenly saw Wang Guobao rushing into the mansion in a panic.

He immediately led him into the secret room, and asked in confusion, "I don't know what happened to make the national treasure come at night regardless of the danger?" ”

Wang Guobao said with a worried face: "Your Majesty, the Son of Heaven will hold a banquet in the palace tonight, and the ministers are also honored to participate. ”

"Originally, the minister thought it was just an ordinary gathering, but unexpectedly, the Son of Heaven had no intention of revealing it during the banquet, and it seemed that he had the intention of harming the king."

"The minister didn't dare to slack off, so he came to inform the king, and asked the king to make a decision as soon as possible, so as to prepare for elbow and armpit trouble."

"What?!" When Sima Daozi heard this, he couldn't help but look frightened.

He grabbed Wang Guobao's arm with a worried face, and asked again and again: "National treasure, don't you want to deceive the widow, is what you said true?" ”

"King Qiqi, this matter is absolutely true! This is what the minister heard. ”

"During the banquet, the Son of Heaven hinted to his subordinates that he was ready to let his ministers be the assistant in the future to contain Wang Gong's wife."

"The king thinks about it, how can the minister be a Zaifu? It must be after the king is cut off? ”

"Furthermore, as the saying goes: all the birds are flying, and the good bow is hidden; The cunning rabbit is dead, and the lackeys are cooking! ”

"Once the king is deposed, Wang Gong's house will also lose its original role, and it will naturally be his turn to be suspected by the Son of Heaven."

"From this, it can be seen that the Son of Heaven has made a decision to get rid of the king." Wang Guobao said very firmly.

"This ...... How good is that? Hearing this, Sima Daozi was at a loss.

"My lord, I'm afraid there is only ...... so far" Wang Guobao's tone was a little resolute.

"Ah......" Sima Daozi thought of murdering the Son of Heaven, and his heart suddenly fluttered into chaos.

"King, now is not the time to hesitate, once we start late, we will be doomed!"

Sima Daozi couldn't make a decision after thinking about it for a long time, so he had to summon his son Sima Yuanxian to discuss.

Sima Yuanxian entered the secret room and listened to what Wang Guobao said, although he was quite surprised, he also thought that the Son of Heaven had moved to kill.

"Father, my sons thought that I was afraid that the Northern Expedition had won one after another, so that the Son of Heaven had something to rely on, and wanted to take the opportunity to overthrow his father in one fell swoop, and then take sole power, and pave the way for the crown prince to ascend the throne in the future."

After listening to what his son said, Sima Daozi had no doubts, and immediately discussed with his son and confidant Wang Guobao how to murder the Son of Heaven.

"Your Majesty, these days, the minister has taken the opportunity to contact the Son of Heaven and has quietly hooked up with Zhang Guiren in the palace."

"Now Zhang Guiren is not only old and decrepit, but there is no man and half woman under his knees, for fear that he will be snubbed by the Son of Heaven one day."

"I think that as long as the king promises to keep her prosperous and rich for the rest of her life, she will definitely be able to use it for me."

"At that time, with the help of Zhang Guiren, you can quietly solve the Son of Heaven."

"Okay, everything is according to what the national treasure said, sooner rather than later." Sima Daozi said with a gloomy face.

"Obey orders!"

……

Somehow, since he was reprimanded by the Son of Heaven that day.

Whenever in the dead of night, as long as she closes her eyes, Zhang Guiren's mind is full of scenes where the Son of Heaven beats her into the cold palace.

In addition, he was forced to drink a lot of wine by the Son of Heaven, which caused Zhang Guiren to lie in bed for several days before he recovered.

What made Zhang Guiren even more chilling was that the Son of Heaven had never come to visit her once in the past few days.

Most of the people who live in the palace have no sense of security, especially those who are the emperor's concubines.

In addition to the beauty and newcomers in the palace, you don't know when you will be disgusted by the Son of Heaven.

And once he is beaten into the cold palace, he will never be able to turn over.

Maybe it was just an unintentional remark by Sima Yao after he got drunk, but in Zhang Guiren's ears, it was like ringing the death knell, which made her panic.

Originally, her heart was full of uneasiness, which made Zhang Guiren's inner anxiety even more serious, and made her gradually go to the extreme.

However, Zhang Guiren is not stupid, she knows that this kind of thing must not rely on herself alone, there must be an accomplice.

And the level and status of the accomplice should not be too low, so that it is convenient for her to get out afterwards.

Zhang Guiren thought about it and finally chose Sima Daozi, the king of Huiji, as the object of cooperation.

At the same time, Wang Guobao was also looking for an opportunity to get in touch with Zhang Guiren.

With the intention of both parties, Wang Guobao and Zhang Guiren soon met secretly to discuss how to kill the king.

"Although the noble man is not the master of the harem, he has also been favored for several years, and he must have many eyes and ears in the palace."

"Therefore, I am afraid that this killing of the Son of Heaven will have to be done by Lao Guiren, and the sooner the better."

Although Zhang Guiren hated Sima Yao to the core, when he was about to kill the Son of Heaven, he was still shocked into a cold sweat.

For a while, her heart was a little messy, and she didn't calm down for a long time.

Zhang Guiren said calmly: "Isn't it too hasty to do it in such a hurry?" ”

"In a hurry? No, no, no, now is the time to start, and it may be too late. ”

Seeing that Zhang Guiren was still hesitating, Wang Guobao couldn't help but bewitch: "It's rare that you haven't noticed that the Son of Heaven's personality has changed recently?" ”

"When Wang Zhongshu said this, it reminded the palace!"

"Recently, the Son of Heaven has become more and more irritable, and he has spoken disrespectfully to this palace many times for no reason."

"Do you know why?"

"I wish to hear the king's high opinion."

"Hehe, it's not for the Northern Expedition!"

"The emperor has been on the throne for more than ten years, and he has always claimed to be the king of Zhongxing, but except for picking up the leaks and picking up the great victory in the water and taking back the central power, there is no achievement."

"Even if Hexi enters the domain, most of the people will take the initiative to send shàng mén."

"After so many years of achieving nothing, I must be extremely unwilling to come to the Son of Heaven."

"But I didn't expect that this year's Northern Expedition was unexpectedly victorious, and the people who were in the limelight on both sides were all henchmen of the Son of Heaven."

"The Son of Heaven finally raised his eyebrows and breathed a sigh of relief, and his heart will inevitably swell for a while."

"Whether it is to reprimand the nobles, or to remove the king and seize the power, he regards himself as the Qin Emperor and Han Wu, and wants to make the export constitution and follow the law."

Hearing this, Zhang Guiren still couldn't figure it out.

To put it bluntly, it's just that the Son of Heaven's heart is inflated, which is high-profile everywhere, and his performance is very different from the past.

After figuring it out, Zhang Guiren's first thought was himself.

Now that the emperor is calling her back, although it is not certain that the Son of Heaven must be disgusted with her, the signs that can be shown from it have to make Zhang Guiren vigilant.

She was convinced that if she continued like this, her situation would definitely get worse and worse, and it was not impossible to be sent to the cold palace in the end.

Thinking of the dark cold palace, Zhang Guiren couldn't help but shudder, and muttered to himself: "No, no, never ......"

Seeing this scene, Wang Guobao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that Zhang Guiren had made up his mind.

As for how to murder the Son of Heaven, Wang Guobao already had a plan in his heart, but he needed Zhang Guiren's assistance.

"As long as the nobles cooperate with the King of Huiji, there is no need to worry about the future."

"In the future, once the Son of Heaven dies of illness, the power of the court will be in the hands of the King of Huiji, no matter what the nobles plan, it is not a matter of words."

A cold light flashed in Zhang Guiren's eyes, and he asked in a deep voice: "How should I do it?" ”

"Hehehe, the plan is simple." Wang Guobao said confidently.

"Originally, the Son of Heaven was good at drinking, but recently to celebrate the victory of the Northern Expedition, he has been drinking almost day and night."

"As long as the concubine finds an opportunity to trick the Son of Heaven into drinking alone in the dormitory, she will take advantage of the crowd...... Well! ”

Saying that, Wang Guobao stretched out his hand and gestured twice, and continued: "The Son of Heaven wants to be weak and sickly, and he has been overeating recently, and his sudden death will not be too eye-catching. ”

"Well, even if someone suspects it, there is also a cover for the king of Huiji, and the nobles are not worried."

Hearing this, Zhang Guiren's whole body was shocked, and he seemed to feel the seriousness of the matter, and said a little incredible: "It's rare for Wang Zhongshu to do it himself?" ”

Wang Guobao spread his hands and said, "Apart from nobles, who else can approach the Son of Heaven unknowingly?" ”

"Humph! Wang Zhongshu said it well, what if you put the charge on the head of the palace afterwards? ”

"That'...... What should you do with your intentions? Under and can't enter and exit at will? ”

"You must sign an alliance with this palace, and you must also sign and guarantee the king of Ji!"

"If you dare to settle accounts after the fall, then the palace will definitely reveal all this."

In the end, he was forced to be helpless, and Wang Guobao had no choice but to agree to Zhang Guiren's request.

As a result, a plot to try to murder the Son of Heaven is fully weaved, and it is only necessary to start when the time is ripe.

And the Son of Heaven is still stupidly ignorant.
