Meng Xu looked at Yu Wenhao in front of him, and the movement of stroking the teacup in his hand did not stop. Yu Wenhao knew that Meng Xu was thinking, so he didn't disturb his thinking, just waited quietly for Meng Xu's reply.

After a while, Meng Xu leaned forward, came back again, and coughed lightly: "General, do you really want to do what you say?" Now the emperor still hates your wife because of what happened before, if you do this, what if the emperor finds out? ”

"If it's a big deal, I'll change places. Hengzhu Jingcheng is also tired of being tired, just to grieve Jiujiu and run around with me. ”

"But......" Meng Xu was a little embarrassed, "If you want to spread rumors up and down in Daqing Kingdom, I'm afraid it's not easy for this manpower to spread out, but you have a bad reputation as a general." ”

Hearing Meng Xu say this, Yu Wenhao hesitated for a moment and said: "Then let's find our former colleagues, some of them can be trusted, even if they take advantage of my reputation as Yu Wenhao, they have to make the emperor completely unable to hurt you this time." Reputation can't be eaten, but if something happens to any of the brothers, I really can't afford to take this responsibility. ”

Seeing that Yu Wenhao had already said it so categorically, Meng Xu knew that he couldn't persuade Yu Wenhao anymore, so he could only respond, and went down to find someone to spread rumors everywhere in Daqing, and followed what Gong Anlin said before, questioning whether Gong Yichen was the heir to the throne mentioned in the previous emperor's edict.

The matter intensified until a few days later, when the rumors from the border were first known, even Gong Yichen knew. Because there are also rumors in the palace, Gong Yichen issued an order to go down, and anyone who spreads rumors will be killed. Suddenly, in the entire Daqing Palace, people were panicked.

To this extent, if someone reports it, then the criminal department can arrest it without any evidence at all. This made many slaves who usually held a grudge against the people around them have bad thoughts, and as for the ministers, because they all advocated not acting rashly, for a while, almost all the people who were killed were some maids and eunuchs in the palace.

No one dared to talk to Gong Yichen about this, because they were worried that Gong Yichen was crazy now, and everyone was afraid of affecting themselves.

Even the old eunuch beside Gong Yichen couldn't raise his head when he saw Gong Yichen.

After a few days, although the palace was much calmer, outside the palace, this phenomenon of rumors not only did not subside, but also intensified. Gong Yichen finally saw the situation clearly, if it continued like this, everyone would say that he was a tyrant and killed many innocent people, so he called someone and said that he wanted to see Yu Wenhao.

"I guess this should be about the same?" Meng Xu looked at the note in Yu Wenhao's hand and said.

Yu Wenhao shook his head and said, "It's better to be cautious, these are just the beginning." As for who dies or lives between Gong Yichen and me, it is not certain. As he spoke, Yu Wenhao picked up his pen and wrote a few words on another note.

Meng Xu saw the above content, lowered his eyes, and the corners of his lips hooked slightly. If Gong Yichen hadn't done so much, he wouldn't have forced Yu Wenhao to such a point. Also, Gong Yichen is to blame for all this, who can blame him? He should have thought of such a consequence for the murder of those who had worked faithfully for him in the past.

Gong Yichen twisted the note with two fingers and carefully read the contents of it. After reading it several times, some of the green tendons on his forehead flareted up slightly. Then, he took a deep breath and said, "Prepare the things for the edict." ”

Just such a sentence, the old eunuch next to Gong Yichen heard it and hurriedly did it. Issuing an edict is undoubtedly a way to make many living beings no longer miserable, although the old eunuch doesn't know who caused Gong Yichen to do this, but as long as he can get the result, it would be good.

Gong Yichen got Yu Wenhao's request in the morning, and the edict was released in the afternoon. For a time, the contents of the edict were posted on the imperial lists of the gates of various cities, and people read the contents aloud every morning.

"General, now that the emperor has sent out the edict, what do you want?"

"How?" Yu Wenhao listened to the voice outside the mansion and said, "Then as he wishes, give him what he wants." After that, make plans. ”

The gray pigeon fluttered its wings and flew over, and Yu Wenhao hung the note he wrote on the pigeon's leg, and then attached something from his waist. The gray pigeon just wanted to fly, as if it was because the thing on his leg was too heavy, and he staggered to the left.

The letter sent by Yu Wenhao in the morning was received by Gong Yichen in the afternoon. "Pass the secret guard, go to the twelfth tree on the left side of the gate of the capital to find a sealed box." Gong Yichen said with slightly narrowed eyes.

He never thought that Yu Wenhao would be so unwilling to find him by himself, and even find a good location. Maybe the edict of the former emperor was something he had already thought about for himself, and he could be counted as his words.

By the time the old eunuch brought the box back, there was still some dust on it. Looking at the ordinary-looking box, Gong Yichen took out a knife and cut open the box from the side. The purpose is the edict that should have been lying in the mausoleum of the former emperor, and the color is the real edict. It's just that Gong Yichen can't figure out why it's in Yu Wenhao's hands.

Gong Yichen took it out and blew it, then opened it and spread it on the table. Before he saw half of it, his eyes widened, and he shouted, and directly brushed the edict from the table to the ground.

The content on it has nothing to do with confirming that he is the emperor, what is written on it is to ask Yu Wenhao how to be loyal to him, and the most important thing is to say that he wants Yu Wenhao to attack Gong Xiangling, saying that he has already seen that Gong Xiangling is wrong.

However, it has nothing to do with admitting that he is the emperor.

Gong Yichen propped up the table in his hand, looked at the table with round eyes, and kept taking deep breaths. The old eunuch next to him saw it, and he didn't dare to raise his head - as early as when Gong Yichen brushed the edict to the ground, all the slaves in this study knelt down.

Yu Wenhao, Yu Wenhao, you really put a trick on me, I originally thought you wouldn't be scheming, but I didn't expect it, I saw you wrong. Who said that to be a general, you have to be honest? Now, I'm really a little ashamed.

Gong Yichen suddenly raised his head and covered his eyes with his left hand.

"Hahahahaha, Yu Wenhao, I didn't expect that everyone in the world would disobey me, and you would be so calculating."

When the old eunuch saw such a palace Yichen, he had no choice but to kneel all the time and remain silent.
