Chapter 15 There is no god in the palace
The weather outside the palace was gloomy, and the dark clouds hung low, as if they might collapse at any time, accompanied by the occasional flash of lightning, which illuminated the sky and the earth in an instant.
Drunk and retired from the brocade guard, the emperor's face is still not good-looking, Shanxi's problem has now become a thorn in his heart, a day does not remove, it will be like a fish in the throat, but now Shanxi has become a big tail, so that he does not dare to act rashly, now what can be done, in fact, is not much, is to collect evidence of Shanxi's crimes, as long as there is evidence to point out that the other party has the intention of rebellion, then he can send troops to quell the rebellion in a grand manner, and stand at the highest point in righteousness.
Don't underestimate this righteousness, especially in this era, a king has to deal with the feudal officials, if the other party is weak and not enough, but if the other party has a heavy army, then this righteousness is very important, if there is no convincing enough reason, rashly move the army, if you win, it is good to say, once the war is unfavorable, the other party counterattacks, that is the emperor's is not, you force people to rebel, on the contrary, if you hold the righteousness, then even if the war is unfavorable, and even the other party has the upper hand, but the people of the world are still on your side, As long as it is not destroyed by the other party's wave, then there is a chance to make a comeback.
With 20,000 elite soldiers on the face of Shanxi Ming, they can beat Houjin and Mongolia around Yanmen, but in other directions, the Ming Dynasty can only focus on defense in the face of soldiers and horses outside the Saiwai, and after all these years of unremitting investigation, now the emperor can be sure that Shanxi alone, this level of elite soldiers, at least 100,000, does not include local armed forces.
100,000 elite soldiers!
It is that the Ming Dynasty is now full of national strength, but to garrison the Quartet, what can really be mobilized is barely 100,000, and Shanxi is just a place. But he raised so many troops, if he didn't have two hearts, could it be that he had a lot of money and kept it for fun?
What makes the emperor even more jealous is that in recent years, this Shanxi political envoy has become more and more arrogant. Every year, when there is a disaster, people will be sent to rescue and give rice and food.
Without the approval of the imperial court, and without the allocation of a grain to the imperial court, it was all out of his own pocket, how can this not make people suspicious, but he can't let people come forward to suppress it, so far, within the four seas. Even many people are singing praises to the political envoys of Shanxi, and every year when there is a disaster, a large number of displaced people will pour to Shanxi, so that Shanxi, which was originally barren, is now the most populous government in the Ming Dynasty.
If it goes on like this, it won't take a few years, and I'm afraid he, the emperor, won't have to do it.
"Your Majesty, the sky is about to change. Your Majesty, let's go back to the palace and rest. Father-in-law Cao walked up and said softly.
"Nope. I can't sleep. Shaking his head, he hadn't had a good night's sleep for a long time, and after glancing at Gonggong Cao, who was full of fatigue, the emperor shook his head and said, "You go and rest first." ”
"Your Majesty, the minions are not tired." Gonggong Cao hurriedly shook his head and said.
"Go to sleep, right now. You are the only one who is most loyal to me. Sighing, the emperor looked at the gloomy sky and said leisurely: "Everyone in the world says that the emperor is good, but a few people know. The emperor's helplessness, the society, the people, and the family, everything has to be worried about. ”
"Your Majesty, rest assured, after today, you don't have to worry about these things anymore, this seat will worry about these things for you." In the distance, the sound of armor colliding suddenly sounded, and a thick and domineering voice sounded from a distance.
"Huh? Who? The emperor frowned, at this time, the night patrol soldiers should not have appeared here, squinted, under the drowsy sky, a thunderclap sounded, and the white thunder light made the emperor see clearly that under the Hunan sky, a soldier with a Shura mask and a style completely different from the armor of Middle-earth walked towards this side.
"There is no god in the godless palace, see the Emperor of Middle-earth." Absolutely Wushen took off the mask on his face, and behind the mask, there was a middle-aged face full of coldness and domineering, although it was a salute, but there was no respect at all.
"Someone, escort!" The Emperor took two steps back and shouted.
"Your Majesty, don't shout, the guards around have been transferred by the old slave." Behind him, Gonggong Cao's voice made the emperor fall into the abyss.
"It's you......" The emperor looked at Gonggong Cao in disbelief, the person he trusted the most betrayed him, this blow made him unbearable, his face turned pale, and he suddenly turned around and looked at the godless palace: "Godless Palace?" Why have I never heard of it? ”
"Haha, the Godless Palace is the sect of Dongying Fusang, so you naturally won't know." Absolute God sneered.
"Dongying?" The emperor frowned, suddenly turned his head, and looked at Cao Gonggong and said, "Unexpectedly, you not only betrayed me, but also colluded with the Japanese invaders, do you want to turn your back on your own nation?" ”
"Your Majesty is wrong, the old slave is originally from Dongying." Gonggong Cao said indifferently.
"Don't stare at it, Gonggong Cao was secretly sent into the palace by us twenty years ago, and from the beginning, he was our person." Absolute Lookout laughed.
"Twenty years!?" The emperor turned his head to look at Gonggong Cao: "In this way, that Zhuo Ao is also your person." ”
He clearly remembered that back then, Zhuo Ao's document seal letter was sent by Gonggong Cao.
"Not really." When it came to Zhuo Ao, Gonggong Cao's eyes flashed with a hint of gloom, and he shook his head and said: "Ten years ago, this person discovered my secret from nowhere, and used it as a threat, as a last resort, the old slave made him a political envoy in Shanxi, I thought it was just a small political envoy, and it was not for me to knead, who knew that in the past ten years, it has actually developed the barren Shanxi to Si, and it is really a tiger for trouble!" ”
"Father-in-law Cao, rest assured, I have sent Tianxing to lead the most elite five hundred ninja troops to assassinate this person, and now, it's almost time to do it, after today, there will be no more such people in the world." Absolute God sneered.
Assassination?
The Emperor gave the Emperor a strange look, and a disdainful sneer flashed in the corner of his eyes, if the assassination really worked, I wouldn't have such a headache.
"Emperor, give me an edict, make me a general, and be in charge of the power of the world." Jue Wushen unceremoniously sat on the dragon chair, bowed his head, looked at the emperor and said, he also knew that if he directly let the emperor abdicate, even if he sat on the throne, he would not sit firmly, so he had to first hold the power of the world's soldiers and horses in his hands, and then encroach step by step, and wait until the time was ripe, and then ascend to the throne.
"Dreaming!" The emperor snorted coldly and said proudly.
"Don't worry, my lord, I have served him for twenty years, and his notes have long been able to imitate, and the eunuch who keeps the jade seal of the country is also my cronies, so it is not difficult to forge a holy decree." Gonggong Cao smiled.
"Bold minion, so bold enough, forge the holy decree, do you want to destroy the nine clans!?" The emperor couldn't help but be furious when he heard this, but he didn't expect that Gonggong Cao had already been planning and was furious in his heart, but he was helpless in the face of the unscrupulous absolute godlessness.
At the same time, under the same sky, in the palace of the Taiyuan political envoy, a fierce battle had just ended.
"My lord, there are 500 enemies, and they have been successfully annihilated, and the head of the thieves has been captured." The hedgehog-like corpse was carried down by a famous soldier, and Zhao Yun came to Zhuo Ao's side and bowed.
"Good job, bring it on." Zhuo Ao nodded.
Soon, a handsome young man was pressed up by two guards masters.
"Get on your knees!" kicked on the young man's leg, but the young man straightened up and stumbled for a moment, but he did not kneel, and looked at Zhuo Ao proudly with his neck and said: "Except for the emperor and the gods, no one is worthy of our ninja worship." ”
"Ninja?" Zhuo Ao glanced at the young man in front of him, to be honest, compared to Fengyun and Qin Shuang, Dugu Ming's non-mainstream style, these ninjas' dresses are more in line with the characteristics of the times, and nodded: "Yes, I like hard bones, because in this way, it is interesting to torture, beat me, until he kneels or breaks his legs." ”
If it was a warrior from the Central Plains or an assassin sent by the emperor, Zhuo Ao might still consider opening the net, but the Dongying people ran to the Central Plains, and they still looked like Lao Tzu was the second in the world, which made Zhuo Ao a little angry.
"Yes." When the two guards heard this, they didn't say much, and one of them took a spear from the soldier's hand, turned the head of the spear, and slammed it on the crook of the opponent's leg with the barrel of the gun.
"It's not promising, didn't you say that you only kneel to the emperor and that there is no god?" Zhuo Ao looked at the ninja with a shy face in front of him, pinched his chin, and spit out with all his strength, the ninja opened his mouth and spit out a poison pill, looking at Zhuo Ao with a resentful expression.
"I like the look in your eyes, evil god, I'll leave it to you, just keep your breath." Zhuo Ao stood up and walked towards the main hall without looking back, and his voice came from afar: "It's okay to die, but you must not let him die before dawn." ”
"Okay." A look of excitement flashed on the face of the Huoyun Evil God, as a person who lives in a mental hospital all the year round, although he voluntarily went in to be studied, but after a long time, it is inevitable that he will be a little perverted in his heart, especially later Zhuo Ao found out that this thing has abusive and masochistic tendencies, and there are various ways to torture people, even if it is an enemy, he can give birth to sympathy, and he simply can't see it.
Not only Zhuo Ao, but the surrounding group of guard generals heard the words and watched the evil god walk towards Tianxing with an evil face, and they were all cold, if it weren't for their duty, I am afraid that they would have to run as far as they could have at this moment.
"I said evil god, you better take him to prison to play." Seeing Zhuo Ao leaving, the fire foreman Tuo came up and said to the evil god: "Even if we don't care about a group of big men, if the two ladies see that they can't eat tonight, then you will have to bear it." ”
The Huoyun Evil God was right to think about it, and dragged a senseless Tianxing with a look of relief on the faces of the soldiers, and walked towards the direction of the prison. (To be continued.) )
