Chapter 458: Please help

Xu Wei is here? Lin Wanrong nodded, and was not surprised in his heart, judging from King Cheng's reaction yesterday, there should have been abnormal movements in Beijing in the past few days, and Lao Xu was afraid that he came specifically for this matter.

Looking at the graceful figure of the eldest lady in the distance, he pondered for a while, and strode towards the front hall. As soon as I arrived at the door, I saw Xu Wei with a sad face, his eyes were bloodshot, and he was walking back and forth in the hall, and the tea cup on the ground next to him had not moved, and it had been cooling for a long time.

"Oh, my little brother Dilin, you're coming out." As soon as he saw his figure, Xu Wei hurriedly ran over, relieved as if relieved.

"Lord Xu, it's early." Lin Wanrong smiled and hugged his fists: "It's such a good spring day, why don't you sleep for a while, and you have time to come here to visit the door."

Xu Wei smiled bitterly and shook his head: "The old man has a hard life, from yesterday to this morning, he has been discussing with the emperor in the palace, and he has not closed his eyes until this moment, how can you be as free as you, little brother." He paused slightly, looked around, and saw that no one was passing by, so he slowly lowered his voice and said: "Don't talk nonsense, the emperor already knows about the place where you were assassinated last night, and the emperor also read the assassin's confession. Little brother, do you really have the guts to ask such a question? Do you know what happens when this paper is revealed? ”

"The consequences?" Lin Wanrong smiled slightly: "I only reflect that I see the land and hear the land, as for the consequences, it is the land that the emperor and Mr. Xu, the pillars of the land and the country, need to consider, not the little brother I am in charge of the land."

Listen to his words and shirk the blame. Xu Wei laughed twice: "Brother Lin is too outside, you want to stay out of the matter now, I'm afraid it's impossible. Li Tai's army is about to set off, the situation in Beijing is treacherous, not to mention that you are the fast son-in-law of the two princesses, and you are the only one in Dahua who enjoys the blessings of the noble horse, just by virtue of the mastermind behind the scenes, it is absolutely impossible for you to be alone. Call me to say. When you handed over the earth last night, you had the intention of pouring some oil on the blazing fireβ€”"

"Look at what Mr. Xu said, do you see that I am loyal and honest, am I the kind of person who is afraid that the world will not be chaotic?" Lin Wanrong laughed dryly, very proud.

Loyal and honest? I'm afraid this has nothing to do with you, Lin San, Xu Wei and him are also old friends. knew a lot about Lin Wanrong's tricks, and in his heart, he was a mess with this thick-skinned boy who was as thick as a city wall, but he made a kind smile on his face: "That's, that's. If the world is chaotic, it will not benefit you or me. It will only harm the people, and make those who have a heart take advantage of it." He glanced outside and whispered, "Little Brother Lin, I came to look for you today because I have something to tell youβ€”"

Lin Wanrong nodded, and said unhurriedly: "But it has something to do with the palace?" ”

Xu Wei was taken aback, and looked him up and down a few times: "Little brother, how do you know?" Could it be that you can pinch it? ”

"I'm a fart." Lin Wanrong said with a smile: "It was the eldest lady who told me, I think it was Brother Xu who deliberately revealed the tone of the earth, you deceived the enemy, but first coaxed us to our own people."

Xu Wei smiled awkwardly. Seeing that there was no one around, he said, "Brother Lin. In the past few days, there has been an accident in the palace - someone wants to murder the emperor!! ”

Murder of the emperor?! Lin Wanrong sighed lightly, faintly feeling that something was wrong. At this time, Li Tai's army was still in Beijing, and Gyeonggi was very well guarded, who would be stupid enough to murder the emperor at this time? After a few days, Li Tai's army went north, and the capital was empty, and it was the time to start. He seemed to understand a little, looked at Xu Wei and smiled mysteriously: "Mr. Xu. Who is going to murder the emperor? He's okay with the old man, right?! ”

"A eunuch on duty in the palace took advantage of the emperor's late night in the imperial study to review and perform kung fu. I even lit a candle in the study! Xu Wei snorted, gritted his teeth and said: "Fortunately, God bless my emperor, a palace maid on duty discovered his conspiracy and shouted loudly, the palace guards arrived and took down the eunuch on the spot, but the imperial study was half burned. Although the emperor was not injured, he was not shallow in the fright, and under the anger of Long Yan, he removed the foreman of the guard and the head of internal affairs overnight, and several commanders of the city defense area were also dismissed from their posts and investigated-"

Xu Wei's words stopped abruptly at this point, Lin Wanrong sighed, realized something, and said with a smile: "Mr. Xu hasn't finished speaking, has there been a change in the court?" ”

"The little brother is really smart." Xu Wei gave a thumbs up and praised it sincerely: "In the past month, the emperor has unknowingly cleaned up the three pavilions and six departments, and recently appointed a group of waiters and bachelors, and the night before yesterday, in the name of investigating and prosecuting corruption, he successively dismissed several scholars from the Ministry of Rites and Wenyuan Pavilion, and in the homes of these people, a total of more than 500,000 taels of embezzled money, jewelry, and bills were found.

This is the emperor doing it, Lin Wanrong nodded: "Mr. Xu, the personnel of the imperial court has changed so much in the past few days, so no one pleads for opposition?" ”

"Opposition is naturally landed, and King Cheng has entered the palace for three consecutive days to intercede for a cadre." Xu Wei laughed, and a hint of fierceness flashed in his eyes: "Little brother, you don't have much contact with the DPRK, and you probably don't know about it yet. The few people who were dismissed were more or less related to the prince, or he was a protΓ©gΓ©, or he was promoted, and they were inextricably linked! ”

Xu Wei said it so bluntly, he obviously had insight into the emperor's mind. This plan to draw wages from the bottom of the kettle, chopping its branches and leaves, and breaking its arms, it is clear that it is to force King Cheng to do it, and the old man has endured it for many years, and it is finally about to break out.

"Since yesterday, the 50,000 Praetorian Guards guarding the capital have sealed the city gate and are on duty day and night. In addition, the emperor also transferred 30,000 troops from Shandong and Hebei to take charge of the defense of Gyeonggi - little brother, big things can be expected! ”

After Xu Wei finished speaking in one breath, it was difficult to hide the excitement in his heart, he picked up the already cold teacup next to him, took a few sips, drank the tea to the bottom, and wiped the corners of his mouth with unfinished eyes.

The thing is obvious. Dahua poured all the strength of the country into a decisive battle with the Hu people, and the old emperor would never allow a bomb to be buried in the court, and it was a matter of time before King Cheng was eradicated. It's just that why didn't he start earlier, and chose a few days before Li Tai's departure? If this leads to a great chaos and leads to the enemy on the belly and back, won't the gains outweigh the losses?

Lin Wanrong frowned, deep in thought, Xu Wei seemed to see through his thoughts. He smiled slightly: "Little brother, I won't tell you, a few days ago, the guards of Gyeonggi were frequently transferred, and the emperor suddenly announced the investigation of the ink corruption case, not only the old decay, but all the colleagues in the DPRK and China were shocked. At the critical moment when Li Tai's army was about to depart, everyone wanted to keep the situation stable. No one could have imagined that the emperor would suddenly rectify the dynasty. Just imagine, if the leader behind the scenes with ulterior motives wants to do it, he will never choose the day when Li Taeshang is in Beijing, everyone makes this mobile phone access exclusive first idea, but the emperor does the opposite. Taking advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness to attack it, this means, this momentum, is a place that we, the courtiers, dare not think of."

Xu Wei is analytically reasonable, when you are an emperor, you should have these thunderous means, Lin Wanrong nodded, and admired the old emperor's courage and scheming: "Mr. Xu. According to you, the Lord has been trapped in the capital? ”

"That's nature." Xu Wei laughed proudly: "The emperor suddenly made a move. Everyone was caught off guard, how could he dodge? At the moment, there are people in his palace who are closely watching, and not a single fly can fly out."

"Is there anything unusual about him?"

Xu Wei shook his head: "When he was on the ground this morning, he was still chatting and laughing with his colleagues, and he couldn't see any abnormalities - all great traitors must have differences, if people can easily see their thoughts, then he is not King Cheng."

There is some truth in this, and it is impossible for the Chengcheng King to put his heart on his face. See Xu Wei's eyebrows flying. Lin Wanrong said with a straight face: "Mr. Xu, now is not the time to be happy. King Cheng has worked hard for many years, and he will never sit still, and there must be a storm brewing behind him, and I ask you to tell the emperor that you must be careful and careful."

"Little brother, don't worry, everything has a foolproof plan, now it's just waiting for the thief to make a move." Xu Wei nodded slowly, and took out a small yellow fold from his arms: "This is a secret letter from the emperor to you. The Holy Lord's instructions, please ask the little brother to do this well, then Miss Xiao will be counted as his advance to you as a reward. After you read this secret decree, the old decay will destroy it immediately."

Lin Wanrong smiled dumbly, this old man really doesn't suffer a loss, the eldest lady was the land you captured, and the benefit you gave me the land is equivalent to saying nothing. Shaking his head, he took out the secret letter, but it was an ordinary white letterhead, with a line of small words on it: "Traitor? Sibling? Only the father's entrustment, I can't forget, I dare not forget, so I will deal with it! Don't disappoint me."

A few words, there is neither a title nor a payment, but it is a hot potato, which makes Lin Wanrong unable to push, let alone accept. The old man trusts me, give me such a big problem, he sighed, his face was full of helplessness.

"Little brother, have you finished reading it?" Xu Wei said cautiously.

Lin Wanrong smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Brother Xu, I won't tell you, the land arranged for me by the emperor is an almost impossible errand, I would rather not see this letter."

"What is humble, your little brother Lin knows everything in the world, if it is simple, the emperor can still come to take care of you?" Xu Wei laughed, personally lit the fire, and burned the letterhead.

After discussing with Xu Wei, as long as King Cheng is trapped in the capital, even if he doesn't take the initiative to make trouble, the emperor will definitely have a backhand to force him to a dead end. At the moment, the two sides are tug-of-war, and I don't know who will strike first in the end, but one thing is certain, something big will happen in the next few days.

"Brother Lin, what else do you have to explain. The emperor has instructed that this major event, the old man will listen to you for everything." At present, although the atmosphere in the capital is tense, and both sides know it, the emperor has not yet issued a holy decree to announce to the world, Xu Wei wants to deal with King Cheng, and some teachers are unknown.

It's good now, if you don't eat mutton, you'll get into trouble. Lin Wanrong has no choice but to bite the bullet, fortunately, he and King Cheng's father and son are also old enemies, and they were almost assassinated yesterday, and there is no psychological barrier to deal with King Cheng. After thinking about it, he said: "I don't have anything to say, so I just uphold the emperor's will and keep an eye on them. If the enemy does not move, I will not move. When he moved, he beat me to death. In addition, tell the brothers in the defensive areas outside the city to push out for ten miles, strengthen patrols, and not a single mosquito is allowed to be released out of the city."

Xu Wei responded, this Lin San's resourcefulness He has seen the land with his own eyes, and he is an enemy of the land, and he has not seen anyone end well.

"Little brother, there is another private matter, I don't know whether to talk about it or not?" Xu Wei hesitated for a while before speaking, with a look of anticipation on his face.

Lin Wanrong said hehehe: "Why is Mr. Xu so polite, you know, I have always been a businessman and a private affair."

Xu Wei nodded: "Little brother, what happened to you and Zhi'er?" Today, I met the general in the court, and he told me that Zhi'er treated you so slowly yesterday, so that the old man didn't know why. Didn't you get along well when you were in Shandong, and I heard that it was still -- hehe, Hu Bugui told me -- how did you become like this now? ”

It's normal to fall in love like this, make trouble and break up. Lin Wanrong smiled helplessly: "Miss Xu's recent mood swings are indeed a little abnormal, which is unpredictable, I have never understood the minds of girls, Mr. Xu, you also know."

Hearing his words, Lao Xu almost vomited blood, I don't understand the girl's mind? It's really thanks to you Lin San to say that you are not deceived by your sweet words.

"Little brother," Xu Wei sighed, his eyes moistened: "Zhi'er's life, it was lost to my confused father. I'm old, and I don't have any pursuits, this lifetime, I just want to see Zhi'er laugh happily once, and I'm satisfied. Can you please help me? ”

Xu Weiyan was sincere, and Lin Wanrong was greatly moved: "Helping others is the foundation of happiness, even if I sacrifice my land complexion, I have no regrets. Mr. Xu, tell me, when will you do it? ”

This kid's skin is extremely thick, Xu Wei sighed, there was a feeling of sending a girl into the tiger's mouth, hesitated for a while, and then said: "Today is Zhi'er's birthday, can you go and see her on my behalf?" Don't worry, whatever kind of ceremonial cakes and rouge gouache you want to buy will all be paid by the old decay."
