Chapter 698: Old Scheming

The emperor laughed and said, "Whether I retreat or not, when will it be your turn to call the shots?" He glanced at the ministers and said slowly, "I know that many of you are dissatisfied with me, and some of you want me to abdicate. He looked at An Guogong and asked, "Have you retired, and you An Guogong will sit in this position?" ”

An Guogong shook his head and said: "The old man is against you today, not for the throne, but for the sake of the common people in the world." The old man just said, if it is not broken, it will not stand, today my Daqin will break the cocoon and be reborn, you faint monarch abdicate, and naturally there will be a Ming monarch on the throne. ”

"Who are you talking about?"

"Of course, His Royal Highness the King of Han!" You Gan, the squire of the military department beside Duke An Guo, has already said loudly: "If today, only His Royal Highness the King of Han is qualified to sit in that position, and only His Royal Highness the King of Han has the ability to turn the tide, turn the tide, and restore my Great Qin!" ”

Han Wang Yingping's face had always been ugly, and when he heard You Gan's words, his eyes crossed with a strange look, and he frowned: "You Gan, what are you talking nonsense?" ”

You Gan said loudly: "Your Highness, the minister is not talking nonsense. Now the situation of Great Qin, you have also seen it, the northwest is chaotic, the southeast is also chaotic, if His Highness does not turn things around, my Great Qin Sheji will be ruined. At such a time of national crisis, please ask His Royal Highness to take charge of the situation and turn the overall situation around. ”

An Guogong also said: "Your Highness, now is no longer the time for a woman's benevolence, today Yingyuan abdicated, His Royal Highness ascended the throne, only His Royal Highness ascended the throne, my Great Qin can be saved, Your Highness, for the sake of the people of the world, such a heavy burden, you must bear it." ”

Yingping said sharply: "Guogong, you are old, and today you are confused." You still don't ask your father for guilt, you have made great contributions to Daqin, and your father may be open when he thinks of his past achievements. ”

His Majesty the Emperor had already shaked his head and said, "I can forgive many things, but if I dare to betray me, I will never forgive." ”

Yingping was shocked, and An Guogong had already sneered: "Your Highness, you see, he has been thinking about letting the old minister die, at this time, he is still thinking about the old minister's life, it can be seen that he is already old and confused, and the cultivation has made him lose his mind, Your Highness, do you want to watch thousands of miles of rivers and mountains destroy in his hands?" He bowed his hand to Yingping and said: "Your Highness, Lao Chen implores you to come out and preside over the overall situation, and I am willing to follow His Highness and restore Great Qin!" ”

Yingping shook his head and said, "Guogong, you said that your father wants to harm you, and your father ...... How could my father have such a mind? It's you who misunderstood your father. If your father wants to harm you, a will will be accomplished, why bother with you, and send someone to spy on you, all of this is what you think too much. He bowed his hand to the emperor and said: "Father, the prince is old and confused, you can forgive him this time." ”

The emperor said lightly: "He is old and confused, is his son also old and confused?" I handed over Wu Jingwei to Huang Tiandu, did I ask him to aim his troops at me? ”

Huang Tiandu rode on his horse, staring at the emperor coldly, and finally said at this time: "You handed it over to me Wu Jingwei, but you also took my son's life." ”

"Your son?" The Emperor frowned.

Huang Tiandu sneered: "Until now, you still don't admit it? My son Huang Tinglang was assassinated and killed in the capital, didn't you send someone to do it? ”

The emperor seemed to think of something, and said with a smile: "It turns out that you think that Huang Tinglang was killed by me." ”

Although there were many people in the square, it seemed very quiet, Huang Tiandu and the emperor's words, Chu Huan could hear them clearly, when Huang Tiandu claimed that the emperor sent someone to kill Huang Tinglang, Chu Huan couldn't help but be stunned.

Huang Tinglang was assassinated by him, but now it seems that the people of the Huang family thought that the emperor sent someone to kill him, and it seems that this time the emperor actually carried the black pot for himself.

"If it's not you, who can have that kind of means." Huang Tiandu's eyes were full of resentment, "In the capital, who would dare to assassinate my son?" Isn't your purpose to force our Huang family to withdraw from the capital? ”

An Guogong also said coldly: "You used my grandson's life to give us a hint, you want the old man to ask for his resignation, but the old man is not as you want, everything the old man is doing now, the old man and his family are working hard, why do you let us leave and leave?" He glanced at Yingping and said loudly: "Your Highness, he has wanted to kill the old man for a long time, but he hasn't done it for a long time, do you know what the reason is?" ”

Yingping looked strange and did not speak.

"He wanted to kill me, but he couldn't." An Guogong sneered: "He got this country, how much effort the old man and his family have made, not only do they know it, but they also know it to the military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty." At that time, my Huang clan brought a large amount of money to fund him, and he swore in front of his subordinates that once he won the world, he would treat my Huang clan well, and even handed over the world's finances to the old man to take care of. After the founding of the country, he even said in the court, never live up to me. Even if he treats the old man like a nail in his eye, he can't break his oath. He can indeed kill the old man with a will, but killing me is like breaking the oath he once made, it will make the world chill and kill me, from now on, who will believe his words? And the old man has been working hard for the household department all these years, he has thrown this mess to the old man, if he kills the old man easily, the empire's finances will inevitably be in chaos, whether he is considering it from the oath or from the financial consideration, he will not easily kill the old man. Speaking of this, he coughed twice before continuing: "But if you don't get rid of me, he won't be at peace, now the treasury is empty, the finances are in chaos, even if the old man is killed at this time, the finances will not be affected much, the treasury is already shy, and it doesn't matter if it's messy." But he still thought about his promise, and didn't do anything to the old man, because he was worried that if he killed the old man, his credibility would be lost, and the people of the world would no longer believe his words. ”

The emperor smiled faintly and said: "Sure enough, he is worthy of being a businessman, and his calculations have impressed me." ”

"You can't kill me, so you want to force the old man back." An Guo said: "You know that no one will dare to kill my grandson, but you send someone to do it, you know that we will think that you sent someone to do it, you sent Chu Huan to the household department, this person has just entered Jingcheng, young and vigorous, but you just used this guy who doesn't understand the rules to jump up and down on the household department, disrupting the household department, and you are secretly bribing Lang Wuxuan, making him betray Hu Bufan, and using the red and silver book case, he has severely suppressed the old man's foundation in the household department." All this you did was nothing more than to make the old man retreat ......! ”

The emperor sneered: "That's why you reversed? ”

"The old man said, how can a hypocritical person like you sit on the throne?" An Guogong also sneered: "The old man is against you because there is a wise and wise person like His Royal Highness the King of Han who can lead us to prosper Great Qin." ”

The emperor shook his head and sighed, "Huang Ju, have you been preparing for this day for a long time?" He looked up at the already dark night sky, then his gaze fell back on Huang Ju's body, and asked, "You use Hu Bufan to suggest to the imperial court that the southeast implement the policy of borrowing grain, you already have ulterior motives, right?" ”

An Guogong raised his eyebrows and said, "Yes, if the war in the southeast is not fierce, how can Lei Guheng leave?" ”

The emperor sneered: "You know that the policy of borrowing grain will cause turmoil among the wealthy clans in the southeast, but you are secretly operating and issuing this order. ”

"Sacrificing a corner is for the sake of the entire Great Qin." An Guogong said in a deep voice: "If you, a faint monarch, ask a little about state affairs and are not obsessed with cultivation every day, how can this order be issued?" ”

"It turns out that you are afraid of Lei Guheng." The emperor said: "If Lei Guheng doesn't leave, you won't dare to act rashly." ”

An Guogong nodded and admitted: "Yes, Lei Guheng is the twelve generals, his prestige in the Twelve Guards is much stronger than that of you, the faint king, if he stays in the capital, the Twelve Guards will naturally not be easily mobilized, just in case, Lei Guheng must leave the capital." It's just that Lei Guheng has been in poor health all these years and has been recuperating in the capital, and there is no big thing, so it is naturally impossible for him to leave the capital. The northwest is more than unyielding, and if he wants to leave the capital, it can only be ...... if something happens in the war in the southeast! ”

Xu Congyang couldn't help but say: "Huang Ju, you have brought disaster to the country and the people, and you must not die well." ”

"Master Xu, you will soon find out who died." An Guogong said coldly: "The policy of borrowing grain proposed by the household department can just provoke the wealthy clan in the southeast and make the war in the southeast have a big change. Speaking of this, An Guogong's eyes were not without a look of pride: "As soon as Lei Guheng leaves, the biggest trouble will go." ”

The emperor sighed: "You are worthy of being a careful man, my General Lei Da was calculated by you to leave the capital." Then he asked, "You were already planning to do something to me in the Temple of Heaven?" ”

An Guogong shook his head and said: "At first, I was still waiting for the opportunity, but you handed over the preparation of the ceremony to the old man, and the old man knew that God treated me well, and the heaven-sent opportunity came." ”

The emperor looked at the Taoist priests with daggers in their hands and said, "So you let people pretend to be Taoist priests in advance, and wait until this time to take the opportunity to make trouble?" ”

An Guo said: "Xue Huai'an is conscientious, but he is just a mediocre talent, how can he know the old man's thoughts?" Fu Xu said: "The old man went to you before, there is no garrison within a radius of dozens of miles from the Tongtian Palace, in order to strengthen the guard, you must transfer a soldier and horse to garrison near the Tongtian Temple in advance, you only know Changsheng at that time, and leave this matter to the old man to deal with, and it is precisely because of this that the old man can let Tiandu lead Wu Jingwei to deploy near the Tongtian Palace, Yingyuan, this pit is you dig it yourself, and jump in by yourself." ”

The emperor sighed: "Huang Ju, you really calculated every step clearly, even Xuanyuan Shao, you also planted people around him." ”

The person who pretended to be "Fan Quan" laughed and said: "Xuanyuan Shao's archery skills are unparalleled, such a person naturally can't be unguarded." Fortunately, the disguise technique under it is not bad, and even Xuanyuan Shao can't see through it. ”

Xuanyuan Shao had been expressionless, but at this time he suddenly said: "Do you really think that I didn't see through you?" A strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "You think you can do it, but in front of me, your disguise is just a trick played by a three-year-old child, I didn't expose you, I just want to see what you want to do, and I don't want to startle the snake!" ”
