That's the way it is, it's not something else.

And the adults seem to sense something, but what it is, he can't tell.

Anxiety spreads, and so does danger.

Qianlong's illness was cured within a few days, and the heart that he was hanging with the adults finally let go. However, since this serious illness, Qianlong's health has deteriorated, with major and minor illnesses continuously, and his health is getting worse day by day.

The ministers seemed to be aware of the subtle change in the power contrast between Jiaqing and the Lord's view. It seems that the ministers who used to be attached to Lord He began to distance themselves from him, consciously or unconsciously, and the ministers who had always been neutral also secretly and quietly moved closer to Jiaqing. This situation made Lord He very uneasy, and every time he thought of Jiaqing's strange smile, he felt as if he was on the edge of an abyss.

After dinner that day, he and the adults locked themselves in the study, ready to sort out their thoughts. There's been so much going on lately that he's a little overwhelmed.

As soon as I sat down, I heard Hushtu report outside the door: "Master, Master Fu Chang'an is here!" ”

"Bring it to the study!" And the lord opened the door and commanded.

"Yes!" Hushtu disappeared as soon as he trotted, and he and the adults were still standing at the door thinking about things.

After a while, Fu Chang'an came from a distance under the leadership of Hushtu, and hurriedly greeted him.

"Or brother, how many days have you been hiding in the house for a few days? Throw all that mess at me! Fu Changan complained loudly as soon as he saw Lord He.

"Those who can work hard! You also know that there are a lot of things going on in the house these days, and I am also lacking in skills! He smiled and patted Fu Chang'an's shoulder. What happened to the White Lotus Sect? ”

The White Lotus Sect has been making a lot of trouble for a while, and the adults can't care about this, so they have to hand it over to Fu Chang'an to take care of.

"Don't mention it, I get a headache when you mention it!" Fu Changan said dissatisfiedly, "In my opinion, this Jiaqing should not be the emperor!" You see, as soon as this inner Zen was introduced, the world became troublesome, first in Hubei, Sichuan, and then in Henan, Shaanxi, and Gansu. Now, half of the world has become the White Lotus Sect. Why didn't the Emperor ever see such a thing happen when he was in power? ”

After listening to Fu Changan's words, he neither agreed nor objected, but just smiled and shook his head.

If it weren't for you and me tossing so much, the White Lotus Church would be so popular? It's really no wonder that people celebrate this thing!

"Hey, don't you believe it?" Seeing Lord He shaking his head, Fu Changan was a little anxious. "Do you know that since the White Lotus Sect made a fuss, how many innocent people have been ruined, and how many good people have died in vain! Emperor Taishang has been in power for sixty years, although there are often troubles among the people, but which one is so difficult to deal with with by the White Lotus Sect? ”

"There's some truth to that. Look at how many people have died in our Hefu since the emperor ascended the throne! "And the Great Lady, "This White Lotus Sect is indeed embarrassing for you, how is the situation now?" ”

"Big brother, I just have something big to tell you today!"

"Oh? What's the matter? ”

"I just got the news today, someone in the court has impeached you to the emperor!" Fu Changan said with some panic.

"Impeach me at this juncture?" When I heard that someone had impeached me, my heart sank with the adult. Qianlong has always been sick, and he has no flaws to care about himself. If something goes wrong at this time, it is very likely to set off a big storm.

"I've inquired, it's none other than the emperor's master Zhu Qi who impeached you......"

"Got started?! Hehe, Jiaqing is really anxious......"

"Big brother, what should I do?"

"It doesn't matter. I'm still the commander of the infantry and the commander of the Nine Gates. Forced me to be anxious, let's give him a forced palace, let this kid Jiaqing abdicate and make way for Xian. ”

"Having said that, we still can't be careless, and we must be prepared for everything. Next, it depends on how the emperor handles this matter. ”

"Okay, you go and contact our people and get ready accordingly. As soon as there is any movement on the emperor's side, tell me immediately. ”

"Got it."

Zhu Jue impeached Lord He, but it was not as simple as Fu Changan imagined. Some time ago, when Qianlong fell ill, he was just in time for Anhui Governor Zhu Qi to return to Beijing to report on his work. However, Zhu Jue's purpose in entering Beijing this time was not just to report on his work.

He was personally recalled by Jiaqing.

It's about to change, and he needs to strategize.

The decisive battle is about to begin.

On this day, Jiaqing was reading in the study of Yuqing Palace, and his heart couldn't calm down no matter what. Emperor Taishang is sick, although it is not a big deal, but his body is obviously not good, but he is just surviving. At this time, should you do something? Once the Emperor Taishang died, he would face a direct hand-to-hand encounter with He Shen. How should I deal with him, and how can I completely eradicate him? While he was pondering, the attendant eunuch walked in.

"Your Majesty, Anhui Governor Zhu Qi Zhu asks to see you!"

"Bring him in!" As soon as he heard that Zhu Jue had arrived, Jiaqing was very happy.

After a while, Zhu Jue came to Jiaqing under the guidance of the eunuch. I saw that he was dressed in coarse cloth, carrying a small package behind him, and holding an umbrella in his elbow, not at all like a big official, still looking like a teacher.

"The old minister knocks on the emperor!" Zhu Jue hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed.

"Master, please get up!" Jiaqing stepped forward and helped Zhu Jue up, "There are many people outside, and I will talk about it when I have something to say." ”

Zhu Jue nodded after hearing this, and followed Jiaqing into the study.

"As soon as you come, I will be relieved! In the past three years, you don't know what kind of life you have lived! ”

"The old minister has already heard about it. Your Majesty, judging from the current situation, you still need to endure a little longer. ”

"I've endured it for too long, I really don't want to endure it anymore! Not only did the Emperor Taishang make it difficult for me everywhere, but even He Shen, the minion, bullied others and never took me seriously. He knows that I have a deep relationship with you, so he took the opportunity to impeach you from the Emperor Taishang, otherwise you would have been transferred back to the capital a long time ago! ”

"The emperor's body is not as good as before, and the emperor must be prepared at this time. Once the Emperor dies, you must make a move. Otherwise, once He Shen controls the government, it will be too late to regret it! ”

"Yes, I thought so, but I don't know where to start......

"Your Majesty, the most important thing now is to gain Heshen's trust. You must do your best to create an illusion in front of him. Let him know that you trust him, and that the power will be in his hands. ”

"I've put up with him for so many years! However, that old fox is always on guard, and I don't know what to do! ”

"Your Majesty, do you have a handle for Heshen in your hand?"

"Handle? Does he still need to find the handle? Corruption alone is enough for him to die a thousand times! ”

"What else?"

"The Hefu is extremely luxurious, even comparable to the Emperor Taishang's Yubo Jingcheng Palace, and the hall built with nanmu is a violation of laws and regulations, and the crime is not small."

"That's good! After a while, when the old minister returned to Anhui, he impeached him for violating the rules and regulations. The emperor can issue an order to criticize the old ministers and protect Heshen. In this way, he will think that you are relying on him and let his guard down against you. In the future, it will be relatively easy for the emperor to do anything. ”

"This ......" Jiaqing hesitated and paced around the room.

"Although this idea is not famous, it must be useful for the current Heshen. At this time, he was arrogant, thinking that everyone should attach themselves to him and protect him, and he would definitely not notice anything. ”

"Okay, just do as you want!"

Be humble and arrogant, and work hard.

Surprise and attack unprepared.
