Chapter Ninety-Four: Listen to the Government
Today there are three watches, the first one......
I don't know how long the few people in the ice warehouse knelt in front of the coffin, but the excitement caused by King Xian's grief and remorse gradually subsided, and he said in a hoarse voice: "Why do you want to store the emperor's body here, and not announce it to the world, so that everyone in the world can mourn it."

It was cold in the ice cave, Yang Yaozong's physical strength was a little exhausted at this time, he gritted his teeth, stared at King Xian solemnly and said, "King Xian should understand the current form of the Great Zhou. There is King Qin inside who is ready to move, and there are Hu people who are harassing the border outside. If the news of the emperor's death is announced to the world at this time. What kind of consequences will be caused, I think King Xian should know better than me. “
Jing Yijun saw that Yang Yaozong's state was wrong, frowned and said nervously: "You...... Are you feeling sick anymore. It's too cold here, shall we go out and talk? ”
Yang Yaozong shook his head and smiled and leaned on Jing Yijun's side and said, "It's okay, just talk here." Just let me sit for a while, you let me lean in. ”
King Xian frowned at Yang Yaozong's weak appearance and said, "You sit down, no one will blame you." ”
Jing Yijun's kung fu was so advanced that he didn't need a robe at all, so he took off his robe and covered it for Yang Yaozong, and hugged him tightly in his arms.
Yang Yaozong trembled and said to Jing Yijun: "You...... Aren't you cold? ”
Jing Yijun's eyes were full of water: "Don't you know how good my kung fu is?" This temperature is not something to fear me. After speaking, she picked up Yang Yaozong's wrist again, and slowly absorbed Yang Yaozong's true qi, trying to warm his body as much as possible.
King Xian saw that Jing Yijun cared so much about Yang Yaozong, although he still felt that Yang Yaozong was not worthy of Jing Yijun, but he also accepted this reality. As long as Yijun is happy and happy, then she wants to be with Yang Yaozong, then it will be good to be together.
King Xian frowned and asked Yang Yaozong a question that several people in the palace had been concerned about: "Even if you are like this, the emperor always does not go to court and does not appear in front of people, how many days can it be delayed?" ”
Yang Yaozong did not answer King Xian's question, but asked: "King Xian, you tell the emperor's body to the emperor's body, will you still help the second son Jingyu from now on?" ”
Regarding the matter of Yingtianfu Prison, although King Xian has not answered Yang Yaozong positively, Yang Yaozong also got an answer from King Xian's attitude, and at this moment Yang Yaozong brought up this topic again. But it was to make sure that King Xian had truly changed his attitude. At least King Xian should not lie in front of the deceased emperor and his deceased brother.
King Xian sighed and said: "As Yang Yaozong said, this king is only willing to believe those he believes, Jing Yu saw the weakness of this king, and said something that this king is willing to listen to and believe, which aroused the hatred of this king for the emperor." This king has always been in contact with Jing Yu, but he does it very secretly. The matter of Ying Tianfu Prison was also planned by Jing Yu, and I was in charge of sending people. The people who led the prison riot were dead men who were attached to our center. Jing Yu planned the rebellion in Yingtianfu Prison to help Jing Min escape smoothly, so that King Qin could smoothly wave his troops south, and when King Qin ascended to the throne, I would use my prestige in the army to get rid of King Qin on the grounds of pacifying the rebellion. But I definitely didn't want to be the emperor myself, or let Jingmin Jingyu be the emperor, I still want to support Jingsheng to become the emperor. ”
Yang Yaozong shook his head and said slowly: "King Xian, you think about the second son, Jing Yu, who has endured for so many years, no one has found that the most scheming person will be him. He can ask you to help his brother run away, and then use King Qin's rebellion to successfully kill the emperor, and then use your power to get rid of King Qin. Do you think that his purpose is so simple? Will he do something just because he hates his father and his brother? I'm afraid he has greater ambitions. I think if things really develop as set out by the second son, Jingyu, after you get rid of King Qin, the second son, Jingyu, will immediately try to get rid of you! He can kill his father and relatives, will he be merciful to you? If not as I expected, he is the one who really aspires to the throne! ”
King Xian has now woken up, he is not blinded by hatred, and through Yang Yaozong's analysis, he also feels deeply reasonable. Remembering some time ago, when Jing Yu came to find him, he used emotion and reason as an example to tell how King Qin and Jing Min abandoned him, and decided to hide him regardless of his life and death, and let Jing Min flee alone, so that King Qin could send troops south without worries. King Xian suddenly felt that he was also being abandoned by this world, the person he loved was long gone, and the person he cared about did not know where he was dead or alive. Then he heard some things about Concubine De Niangniang and the emperor's bad things about Jing Yijun, and he finally became angry. In a fit of rage, he agreed to join forces with Jing Yu.
King Xian has now let go of his hatred, and personally admitted what he had done, he was relieved in his heart, and said with a faint smile: "Yang Yaozong, this king has always been cautious and cautious in contacting Jing Yu, and he has never even had direct contact, and in response to the Tianfu prison riot, as far as this king knows, those people sent by this king to lead the riot have all died in the fight. Where did you get the evidence that found out that Benwang and Jing Yu teamed up to plan this? ”
The speculation and uneasy feeling of these days, everything was finally answered by King Xian, Yang Yaozong took a deep breath, exhaled heavily, and said calmly: "I guessed." ”
Several people in the ice vault were stunned, and they couldn't help but repeat in their hearts, guess?
King Xian's eyes widened, and he exclaimed incredulously, "What? You actually guessed? How dare you confront this king so confidently? Aren't you afraid that this king will kill you without being persuaded by you? And don't you know what the crime of framing the prince is? ”
Yang Yaozong said with some embarrassment: "Actually, there are some clues, but they are all indirect. I'm afraid of death, of course, but it's urgent, and I don't have so much time to worry about too many problems. Besides, I also know a lot about your character from Yijun. A person who is not bad in nature and not bad in quality has done something wrong, and there will always be a reason. And listening to what Yijun said, you treat her like your own daughter, and you won't punish me for Yijun's sake. ”
King Xian snorted, and then laughed twice and said: "It seems that the emperor chose you to be a concubine for a certain reason, Yang Yaozong, you are brave and strategic, and this king is a little impressed by you." You haven't said that you will store the emperor's body here, and you will not announce the death of the emperor in the world, what are you going to do? ”
"Originally, I just wanted to delay for a few days, see what way I could think of to help the imperial grandson ascend the throne smoothly, and then gather the armies of the state capitals to prepare for the rebellion of King Qin. Now I have a better way, but I need the help of King Xian, and I also need the consent of the emperor's grandson. Yang Yaozong said meaningfully.
King Xian and the imperial grandson asked in unison, "What way?!" “
Yang Yaozong said solemnly: "King Xian, you are very similar to the emperor, but you are younger and stronger than the emperor. But these can be used to make you look like the emperor through makeup......"
Before Yang Yaozong finished speaking, King Xian hurriedly said: "You want me to pretend to be the emperor!" How can that be! Absolutely not! ”
Yang Yaozong looked at the imperial grandson, waiting for the imperial grandson's choice.
The imperial grandson looked at King Xian carefully and said seriously and resolutely: "Third grandfather, now that the Great Zhou is in a difficult situation, the third grandfather will help his grandson!" ”
King Xian hurriedly said: "Your Highness, how can you be so nonsense, this matter is absolutely impossible!" ”
Yang Yaozong frowned and said, "Does King Xian have a better way to delay time?" What's more, I don't believe that King Xian will be attached to the throne. Even if you are attached to the throne and say something rebellious, you are now old and have no heirs, and if you die in the future, the position of the emperor will still be given to the emperor's grandson. At that time, the emperor's grandson was also older, and he would also accumulate a certain amount of majesty and connections, but he was also more suitable for inheriting the throne. This may be a good thing for the imperial grandson. ”
King Xian frowned and glared at Yang Yaozong sternly: "You are really a big rebel!" ”
Yang Yaozong said without fear: "I promised the emperor to protect the emperor's grandson Zhouquan, if my rebellious remarks can persuade the virtuous king, in exchange for the temporary peace of the Great Zhou, in exchange for the peace of the emperor's grandson." What if King Xian beheads my Yang Yaozong's head? Of course, if I die, the emperor's grandson will be protected by King Xian. I believe that when I see the emperor under the Yellow Spring, the emperor will not complain about me. ”
King Xian sneered: "Needless to say, it is so high-sounding. Don't think that this king feels sorry for Yijun, so he really doesn't dare to kill you! ”
Yang Yaozong saw that King Xian was persuaded by himself to loosen up, and said with a smile and respectfully: "Actually, if you pretend to be the emperor, you just need to pretend that the emperor is sick, and you can announce that the imperial grandson will be in charge of the country, and you will retreat into the background." Then you only need to go to the court once in a while, and the court is also hidden behind the dragon throne, well...... It is to listen to the government. Let the courtiers know that the emperor is still in good health, and he can still occasionally go to the court to listen to the government. And you are hidden behind the curtain, and the courtiers cannot see your appearance clearly. Even if you look closely, I don't think anyone will find a flaw if you don't look closely. Do you think about it, who dares to observe the emperor carefully? ”
King Xian thought carefully about what Yang Yaozong said and asked, "Then how long will you persist like this?" The emperor's body can't be kept here. ”
Yang Yaozong frowned and said, "When my health is better, I will immediately go north to Beijing." Go and investigate what King Qin dares to rebel on. After all, as a prince, he is not allowed to raise an army privately. But after all, Shangjing and Tianjing are far away, and I heard that King Qin has secretly taken charge of the city defense of Shangjing, and there is a very strict scrutiny of people and merchants who come and go in Shangjing. Many people can only get in and out. So a lot of the news couldn't reach Tianjing at all. Especially this year, the city defense of Shangjing City is even tighter. Many people need a referral from someone who is reliable in the city to enter the city. Getting out of the city is even more difficult. “
King Xian asked: "If you go to Shangjing, you are sure that you will definitely find something, and you must be sure that you will be able to bring the information from the investigation back to Tianjing City?" “
Yang Yaozong smiled: "Some things are always done before they are known, it is better than staying in Tianjing City and waiting for King Qin to raise troops before preparing a countermeasure." I will try my best to investigate and use the information and pass it back to Tianjing City. It's good to prepare a countermeasure in advance, and the king of diligence is caught off guard. Maybe he can nip his rebellion in the bud. However, the border pass is also resolute in this period of time, so after King Xian pretends to be the emperor, he will issue an edict to let General Nangong strictly garrison the border pass, only garrison and not go to war! No matter how provocative the opponent is, you can't go out to meet the enemy! Now that the weather is getting colder, the temperature outside the fortress will be even lower, and the Hu people have been fighting with our army at Yanmen Pass since May, and now it is the middle of August, and there must be not much grain and grass left with them. Even if they continue to have a supply of food and grass, as long as we resolutely do not meet the battle, and the weather is getting colder and colder, they will not hold out for long. “
King Xian stared at Yang Yaozong with blazing eyes and said, "Okay! This king promises you! This king also wants to see, Yang Yaozong, how did you solve the situation of reversing the current internal and external troubles of the Great Zhou. You'd better not let this king down! “
Yang Yaozong stared at King Xian's blazing gaze and nodded, "Do your best!" (To be continued.) )
