Chapter 107: See Temptation Again
Princess An Ning's words brought a great shock to Wang Lang, but this was also Wang Lang's reaction when he first heard that Duke An Ning wanted to use this plan. He felt that the irrationality and harmfulness of the "net" lay in this.
This plan went on for a long time, and everyone from the royal family to the common people would be involved, and there would be no more personal freedom and privacy, and everyone would be shrouded in invisible rule. This can lead to fear, fear, defensiveness, and even indifference, selfishness, and mutual intolerance.
This is really not what a normal person wants to see.
Ah Pu actually didn't expect that such a danger lurked under the seemingly stable Southern Imperial Kingdom, let alone that such a subtle means of controlling people's hearts would actually be developed from that royal family.
It's not that he thinks highly of himself and deliberately looks down on the Wang family, but after nearly a month of more intuitive views of what he has seen and heard about the Wang family, Ah Pu can't help but come to such a conclusion.
He really wondered all the time how the Wang family sat in such a high position now.
He sensitively grasped a sensitive word in Princess An Ning's words, and asked Princess An Ning with a puzzled look: "Your Highness just said that this was first established by the Wang family, which means that this thing is no longer under the control of the Wang family, right?" ”
Princess An Ning smiled appreciatively at Ah Pu, and replied, "Yes, this thing is no longer in the hands of the Wang family." For the sake of their own safety or to reassure someone, the Wang family is like he showed his hole card.
But they forget that even the hole cards have been thoroughly touched, how can they restrain others? ”
Although Princess An Ning didn't say the name of this person, Ah Pu and Wang Lang both invariably understood who Princess An Ning was talking about.
They suddenly only felt that the muddy water in the court was really not so simple, and no one knew what was hidden inside. The original intention of the Wang family may have been just to create this pool of troubled water and disturb the situation, so that other forces could not take care of it, and smoothly keep their family and Sima Zhao clean and be the most innocent person.
However, the Wang family didn't realize that while setting traps for others, he himself had already fallen into the quagmire and could not protect himself.
Princess An Ning looked at the affectionate and slightly serious two people in front of her, and couldn't help but smile softly, pretending to be relaxed: "Although most of this thing is now in Sima Zhao's hands, it is not a serious matter.
Although Sima Zhao has been in Taoguang and hiding himself all these years, there is one characteristic that is true, that is, he is indeed the most mediocre of his father's children.
He wasted a lot of effort to get the 'net' into his hands, but at the same time, he realized a problem, that is, he simply couldn't eat such a big convenience.
Sima Zhao was very cautious, suspicious, and suspicious, and it was naturally impossible for him to return it to the Wang family if he took it from the Wang family.
He stubbornly refused to let others know, and refused to return it to the Wang family or seek help from the Wang family, and after several hesitations, this secret naturally could not be kept. ”
What will happen after this, even if Princess An Ning didn't say it, Ah Pu and Wang Lang also understood.
As a superior who has no ability but still wants to keep a secret, this secret naturally fell into the ears of others.
Although I don't know how many people know about it and how many people have joined in, these princes who have seized power are all inseparable from it.
"When this palace was dealing with King Qin, King Xin and King Nan, it also cleaned up this dark web by the way, and it did suffer a lot during that time. However, Hongu has recently suddenly discovered that it is showing signs of resurgence again. ”
Princess An Ning's words came to this, and Wang Lang understood what Princesses An Ning wanted him to do.
He was born in the Wang family, and even though he didn't participate in these things of the Wang family at the beginning, his identity is the greatest convenience. Moreover, he has made meritorious contributions to quelling the rebellion, no matter how anxious Sima Zhao is to deal with their Wang family, he can't move his head for the time being, on the contrary, Sima Zhao has to favor and reward him more, otherwise it will chill the hearts of all the courtiers.
Wang Lang was silent for a moment, and finally bowed his head heavily, showing his loyalty to Princess An Ning,
"Minister, I would like to listen to His Highness's will."
Princess An Ning nodded in satisfaction.
She was about to say something else to Wang Lang and Ah Pu when she heard Qiulan report outside the door: "Your Highness, Your Majesty has sent someone to ask you to go to the Xuanzheng Palace to talk about it. ”
Princess An Ning paused, then snorted and said softly: "Heh, I can't wait so soon, and I'm too much to breathe." That's it, Qiulan, you tell Shaofu to prepare a sedan chair, and the palace will go to the Xuanzheng Palace. ”
"Whoa." Qiulan answered, and trotted down the stairs with a "puff", and said a few words to Shaofu, and after a while, the yellow doors carrying the sedan chair waited below.
Seeing this, Princess An Ning didn't linger any longer, and directly threw a piece of wooden tablet to Ah Pu, and said to him: "This is news from Bei Aoguo, Ah Pu, you can take a look, and then discuss it with General Wang." ”
Ah Pu caught Mu Jian, his pupils changed sharply a few times, and finally he lowered his head and responded obediently: "Huh." ”
Princess An Ning asked Qiulan to guard here, and she took Chun Tao and Shaofu to the Xuanzheng Palace.
There was no one else in the Xuanzheng Palace, only Sima Zhao was pacing back and forth, looking a little anxious.
Seeing that Princess An Ning had arrived, he hurriedly welcomed Princess An Ning into the room, and said to Princess An Ning as if relieved: "An Ning, you are here, I really don't know what to do." ”
Princess An Ning's expression was faint, her eyebrows and eyes were calm, and there was no change at all.
"What happened to make Your Majesty so sad?"
Sima Zhao sighed, and said to Princess An Ning with some sadness: "This is not a big deal, but it is just that the funeral official Lord Guo told me today that he would consider holding an enthronement ceremony. But at this time, I still didn't think it was appropriate, so I told Master Guo.
Not only Lord Guo, but also Taifu, Doctor Guanglu, and Doctor Yushi all told me that we should hold an enthronement ceremony, so as to announce my accession to the throne to the world and completely complete the establishment of this new dynasty. So, I'm also very distressed.
An Ning, you say, should I hold this enthronement ceremony at this time? ”
After Sima Zhao said that, he looked at Princess An Ning, as if he sincerely wanted to get an opinion from Princess An Ning that would make him make up his mind.
But to his disappointment, Princess An Ning did not give the reaction he wanted, but still said lightly without any emotion and bias: "Your Majesty is free to do so." ”
