Chapter 204: Asking Price

Yang Zhi asked himself that as long as he saw the living emperor, all the doubts in his heart would no longer exist, and he was not very interested in the emperor's proposal to solve his doubts. But Yang Zhi can't stop the emperor's mouth and not let him speak, right?

Even when the emperor mentioned that he and Zhou Ting appeared in the second half of the night, it was also expected by Yang Zhi: Zhou Ting is said to be the emperor's personal soldier when he was a child, and his seniority in the army is extremely old. Although he is extremely low-key on weekdays, he seems to be loyal and rarely noticeable, but now he is in a high position as a general of the forbidden army, and there is a visit from the old general Zuo at the New Year's Festival, whether it is for personal relations or official business, it is normal. It is said that it is not too late to have the heart to pay homage to the fifteenth day of the New Year, today is the thirteenth day of the first month, and it should have been worshiped long ago to come to the New Year's greetings, so why rush to the door at the end of the time?

Chang San reported that two Xiao cavalry generals and several forbidden army captains entered the Zhou Mansion today, although they were all middle and lower-level generals who only commanded 20,000 or 30,000 soldiers and horses, but 200% of them must be Zhou Ting's hardcore cronies. Zhou Ting was miraculously "cured" suddenly, re-ascended to the position of the general of the forbidden army, sat in the camp of the forbidden army, and then led the troops by several cronies to wash the face of the tiger, and completely cleared the palace ban and took over the city defense. With Zhou Ting personally pressing the formation, Geng Chao was already hoping that the prince would fall as soon as possible, how famous can Zhang Tianxing be even if he has the support of Wei Su? Even if Zhao Tianyang has the ability to incite all the inner court guards to turn against the water, it is still 3,000 against 30,000, and he can't chew until there is no bone residue left?

The 14th day of the first month of the 26th year of the Xia calendar is destined to be a day that countless people will never forget.

The emperor ignored Yang Zhi's absent-mindedness, and after taking care of himself, his face became more and more surprisingly ruddy, but his expression was a sad indifference: "Yang Zhi, today I want to say a few words to you." Since ancient times, only those who are at the top are the loneliest. I have reigned for more than 20 years, from sitting firmly on the country to expanding the territory, fighting endlessly and killing countless people, how many tens of millions of people have died at my hands? There are also countless people who want to eat the skin of the flesh. Who do you think I can trust? Who do you dare to believe? It was only after careful consideration that I decided to take Heng'er to the east. Both I want to give him a chance, but I don't want to give him a chance. ”

"Heng'er has been an honest child since she was a child, and I still say so. It is said that the son is his own good, so be honest! I've been fighting for decades. has played a large territory, but it has also hit the poor and tired the hearts of the people. My son I know that Heng'er doesn't have the ability to be in charge. In the future, if he still does what I do, he won't be able to play. I can't afford to fight either. I thought that as long as he could hold on, it would be good to wait until he saved up more money before fighting. Great Xia is full of talents, and before I close my eyes, I will make arrangements, assisted by a loyal old minister, and leave a new generation of capable generals like Wen Han and you to him. So until the Eastern Expedition to the Southern Tang Dynasty, I didn't have the idea of changing my mind and saving easily. ”

If it comes to the fierceness of the skull, compared with the emperor, Wei Su can only be regarded as a three-year-old child in kindergarten at most. Yang Zhi listened to the emperor's chatter, and couldn't help but worry about Wei Su's future fate. Just the emperor's train of thought. gave Wei Su a step: "I had a deep conversation with General Wei, in fact, his thoughts are exactly the same as what the emperor said. ”

The emperor frowned and said, "You don't have to be busy, I don't want to mention this person now." β€”β€”As a father, I led Heng'er to the East to give him more experience to broaden his horizons and give him a chance to know the army and build his might. As an emperor, I led him to the east to conquer the east, because I didn't want to give him the opportunity to be bewitched and want to get into trouble. To put it bluntly, I don't have any hope of becoming a generation of overlords for Heng'er, as long as he stays honest as always. Sooner or later, my seat will be his! I can see clearly and think clearly, this time I am sick or not, they will do that. Heng'er, Heng'er, you have been the prince for sixteen years. Can't we wait a few more years? ”

The emperor's long sigh sounded like a heartfelt word, but Yang Zhi believed him at most half: What you said to me is a fart? You should have told your precious son to go sooner! If what you say is true, a fool will rebel! The question is, will the prince believe it when he hears it?

Seeing that the emperor was like a nightmare, Mu Ran said: "After I fell ill from Luzhou, Heng'er couldn't take the decoction medicine with him. Claiming that he was afraid that I would be tired, he asked me not to read the recitals in person. Instead, he recited it before the couch and asked for approval on his behalf. People's hearts are flesh and blood, I am moved! I don't want to take the decoction, not only did my body not improve, but I felt even more dizzy and palpitated. It was only then that I was secretly alert, and deliberately pretended to be seriously ill. If it weren't for the timely arrival of Duke Qin and Liu Er, the person who is lying in the palace now is no different from a dead person would be me! I'm cold! ”

"You also said that the Holy Driver was attacked several times on the way to the class, I might as well tell you clearly, what are the origins of those assassination fanatics: the first group of people is Zhao Heng's rebel son who guards and steals himself, and intends to shout to catch the thief for people to see. His intention was nothing more than to kill two birds with one stone, one was to pour dirty water on his second brother Ning Wang Zhao Dang, and the other was to use this as an excuse to urge the escort soldiers and horses to rush back to Chang'an. The second group of people is I am now learning and selling, and secretly ordered Qin Gong to draw a scoop according to the gourd, and take advantage of the chaos to get out. The third group of people was indeed sent by Zhao Dang, the king of Ning, and his eldest brother did not wronged him. Hehe, this is my good son! Oh, you are wrong about one thing, Qin Gong has been secretly raising stand-ins for me for more than twenty years, not one, but a batch. Not only is it similar to my body and appearance, but it is also absolutely loyal and has no trouble. The matter of stealing the sky and changing the day naturally can't be hidden from my close servant Ma Cheng. He has been with me for many years, and there is no need to hide it from him. He knew very well that even if he sold me, it would be easy to take the life of his Ma clan with the power of the Qin clan. ”

Yang Zhi suddenly said: "When I greeted the saint, I paid attention to the change in Ma Cheng's expression. No wonder there was more horror than sorrow in the eyes of that guy! ”

The emperor said lightly and indifferently, but Yang Zhi was shocked when he heard it, and he pinched a cold sweat for him: The night of December 25, the twenty-fifth year of Wucheng in the Xia calendar, is the night of horror that is really related to the fortunes of the Great Xia! Emperor Luan Yu was surrounded by tens of thousands of escorts and horses, and how precise did he need to plan to transfer the emperor away safely under the nose of the prince? How thorough does the design need to be? How bold does it take to implement? If the prince finds out that the conspiracy is exposed, then what does he have to worry about whether he dares to kill his father? But there is a slight omission, and the consequences are unimaginable!

The emperor laughed self-deprecatingly: "I have seen all the storms in my life, and only this one with my own son is the most thrilling." The commander of the army is a general, some are good at attacking, some are good at defending, and the latter is what Zhou Ting is good at. For so many years, I have been beating others, so I can't show Zhou Ting's ability, but let my two sons who lead soldiers and Geng Jin and others steal the limelight. Others don't know, but I still know. Before I left Beijing, I gave Zhou Ting a secret decree, ordering him to be optimistic about Chang'an for me and giving him the right to cut first and then play. The first thing I did when I sneaked back to Chang'an was to contact Zhou Ting. Zhou Ting and I have been friends since childhood, and they have finally lived up to my expectations at a critical moment. ”

Yang Zhi said with emotion: "I am afraid that Zhou Ting's strength is not good at attacking and defending, and General Zhou is best at loyalty to the emperor!" ”

Only then did the emperor sigh lightly: "Yes, the word Chizhong is the most rare, and I value it the most." ”

The emperor looked up at the copper kettle on the bookcase, and when it was getting close, Zhengse said: "Okay, I have been nagging you for a long time, and it's time to get to the point." As I said before, I have summoned you today to discuss with you a few important matters. I hid like a mouse in this dark room for ten days, and I was suffocated to death! So the first thing is that I plan to show up when I want to be in Yin, return to the palace when I am young, and go to the court in the morning! From now on, you must not leave me until I have another will for you. What do you think? ”

As Yang Zhi expected, the emperor was looking for him to be a super bodyguard, but you can't use me as Zhou Ting! Yang Zhi said with a bitter face: "Your Majesty, can this also be regarded as a discussion?" You have General Zhou commanding thousands of troops to protect you, and Geng Chao will definitely lead his troops to respond with all his might, are you still afraid that you won't be able to deal with the prince and a few inner court guards? How my entourage Liu Er is skilled, you must have seen it. I'll just be a good guy to the end, and then lend him to you for a few days for free. You don't have to think so highly of me, do you? ”

"No way!" The emperor replied without blinking his eyes: "Chang'an suddenly changed tonight, and the city is mixed, how can you tell the difference between you and me in a hurry?" If something really happens to me, can you afford it? I've never seen how brave you are, but I've asked Geng Chao seriously and Liu Er. Geng Chao can be called the enemy of ten thousand, but he claims that he will definitely die within a hundred moves under your hands. Liu Er's skills are indeed good, and I think he can be among the top ten among the three thousand internal guards, but he said that it is difficult to defeat the power of your sword! With people like you by my side, what do I have to worry about? ”

"I know exactly what you are. Don't worry, I won't let you be busy in vain. I promise you that I don't want any of the benefits you and the Qin clan have gained from hoarding grain. How is it? ”

Yang Zhi grinned and said, "Are you embarrassed to speak?" That's a few hard-earned money I made in it, and it's nothing to do with you! If you are really sincere, will you increase the price? ”

Yang Zhi just didn't say it too explicitly, what kind of character is your emperor Lao'er, doesn't Lao Tzu know? You have always been able to save, and what you are best at is the white wolf with empty gloves! What do you mean that you don't want me? You don't even look at what time it is, you only care about being generous to others, and you don't pull out a dime yourself, are you stupid or what?

The asking price that Yang Zhi calculated was actually not too high: The Qin family is assigned to the grain bank under my Yang Zhi's name, and you must at least officially admit it. I have one acre and three points of land in Shandong, you must promise not to touch it in three or five years!
