Too much deception?

Zhao Yiyan couldn't help but tug at the corners of his lips, they were too deceitful, but they were not so innocent here.

It's just that the person in charge of this matter is not Zhong Liyue, so he doesn't know.

He brushed the expression on his face and shook his head at Zhong Liyue.

"Now, leave the people behind first, and I'll write an excerpt and send it to the emperor."

How can they make their own decisions about such a big thing? Of course, let the people above decide.

And wasn't this matter decided by the emperor alone who abandoned the ideas of everyone else? Of course, the emperor himself will have to do this matter.

So, when this fold was sent to the capital, it set off a stormy wave.

In particular, Zhao Yiyan did not just objectively say this matter, but expressed his own opinion.

He wrote at the end of the excerpt that he speculated that this was all Emperor Yuanwu's despicable idea, and that Emperor Yuanwu deliberately let people take away the food and money, thinking that they were too happy to give things, so he was insatiable and wanted to continue to ask for money.

Not only that, but he also explained later that this is just his own one-sided idea, and the specific situation needs to be considered by the emperor.

Where is the emperor not angry?

He is what he says in the apocalypse, and when has he been persecuted like this?

Originally, he was very unhappy when he was forced to be forced in his heart, but now he is not only distorted by others, but also blackmailed, it is strange that he can be happy in his heart!

So, when it was time to go to the early court, he told the ministers below about this matter, and let everyone say what they thought.

It's just that the idea is good, but the reality is not so beautiful.

Because, no one, no one stands up and expresses their thoughts.

After all, everyone knows that the emperor's emotions about Yuanwu's affairs are a little delicate, and no one wants to touch the emperor's scales, after all, the last time Yuanwu asked the emperor for money and food, the emperor could let several officials go back to their hometown for this reason.

Everyone is not alone, but has their own wives and children, the elderly and relatives, and if they don't think about themselves, they have to think about their families somewhat, right?

Therefore, when the emperor saw the silence below, he almost didn't directly spurt out a mouthful of old blood.

He angrily reached out and patted the armrest of his dragon chair and scolded him downward.

"You, you people, what's the use of raising you? The king humiliates the ministers to death, they distort the facts and insult me like this, do you stay silent like this? ”

Everyone looks at me, I look at you, and they can see the helplessness in each other's eyes.

They all said at the beginning that they must not give, and they can't compromise like this, but the emperor tried his best to give things away, and he said the same thing, right? Aren't they wrong if they don't speak now?

In desperation, under the emperor's urgent gaze, a person stood up and spoke to the emperor.

"The minister thought that this was not an insult to the saint, but that someone was making trouble in the middle. Wechen thought that for the sake of the normal diplomatic relations between the two countries, we should pay double compensation. ”

As soon as the minister spoke, the emperor fell back in anger again, and almost fainted directly.

Double compensation?

Although the Apocalypse Treasury is rich, it hasn't reached this level yet, right?

And now that he has heard of a large-scale drought in Yuanwu, he also has to prepare for the natural and man-made disasters of the Apocalypse! How can you just give what you say?

The emperor did not believe evil and moved his eyes to the other official, nodded clearly to Shang, stood up, arched his hand towards the emperor according to the person just now, and continued to speak.

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

The emperor directly gave birth to one Buddha and two Buddhas ascended to heaven.

He continued to order a few more people to come out, but the result was the same for everyone.

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

……

The emperor couldn't bear it any longer, and with a "poof", a mouthful of blood spurted out.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty...... Call the doctor, call the doctor! ”

If the emperor has any symptoms, he is most taboo to be sick in front of the ministers, and this time, he vomited blood and fainted in front of everyone, which has to remind everyone that it seems that the apocalypse has no prince.

The emperor is not young anymore, if something happens again, the country cannot be without a king for a day, so it is natural to establish a prince early.

The emperor never expected that he would faint only once, and let everyone seize the opportunity and began to ask him to establish a reserve as soon as possible.

He woke up slowly, but before he woke up, he heard the father-in-law Quanfu next to him look at him with an embarrassed face and slowly spoke.

"Your Majesty, you're finally awake! If you don't wake up again, slave, slave doesn't know what to do! ”

The emperor frowned and looked at Quanfu, and listened to Quanfu tell him what had happened in the last few days.

Those princes and ministers entered the palace one after another and knelt outside the emperor's diligent palace, one was to pray for the emperor's speedy recovery, and the other was to kneel and ask the emperor to become a prince.

The emperor had just woken up, and he almost fainted again.

He got up and drove them all out, and then shut himself up in the room alone, picking and choosing among his sons, but finding nothing that suited his mind.

He had been running away from things before, and finally he couldn't let him run away anymore.

He's old, he's really old!

The emperor vomited blood, because the princes and ministers were present, and the matter quickly dispersed.

Even Zhao Zijian, who was far away in the border city, also knew the news.

Wei Lao looked at Zhao Zijian with some excitement at this time.

"Lord Wang, this is an opportunity. If you can get your hands on it, you won't have a problem. ”

Opportunity?

Zhao Zijian smiled bitterly and shook his head at Wei Lao.

"Old Wei, I won't hide it from you. I don't have much faith in myself. Father, I'm getting more and more incomprehensible! ”

Tianqi and Yuan Wu are so opposed, but the father agreed to the other party's request without saying a word, and he not only wanted to protect his position, but even a small person like his own son was used to guard against it.

He is his son! That's his grandson!

"Lord Wang, that position is not available to everyone. Lonely people are like this, it is easy for people to lose their hearts, this is normal. But you also have to know that looking at the princes in the capital now, there is no one more suitable than you! They are too small to hold the occasion. If the crown prince is really too young, the apocalypse will inevitably have a scene of civil strife in the end. ”

Wei Lao hit the nail on the head.

Zhao Zijian didn't know, but he still had the charges arranged for him by his father, and it was difficult to go back even if he wanted to.

"If the prince can trust me, I am willing to contribute my own strength to His Highness and the entire Apocalypse before I enter the earth."

Zhao Zijian smiled bitterly, reached out to touch his nose, and said to Wei Lao.

"You're so me! You've done so much for me, but I'm ......"

It's just that this matter is a last resort arrangement, and Zhao Zijian agreed after hesitating a few times.

But before he could return to the capital, he received news that the emperor not only rejected the unreasonable request of the Yuanwu envoy, but instead sent troops to the border city, and if there was anything in case, he would let Zhao Yiyan act cheaply.

This is equivalent to directly handing over the rights to Zhao Yiyan.

Zhao Yiyan was still thinking about how to fulfill Zhongli's entrustment, who knew that things would go so easily?

Without saying a word, he drove the envoy out of the border city, and the man didn't dare to say anything when he saw the soldiers and horses behind him, so he returned to the capital of Yuanwu and told Emperor Yuanwu about this matter.

Emperor Yuanwu was furious, and the weakness of the Apocalypse had made him forget the gap between Yuanwu and Apocalypse, and he didn't say a word and directly arranged the troops to attack the Apocalypse, but at this time the problem came again.

There's no food!

Zhongli was called into the palace by the emperor again, and he gave all his money to the emperor very sincerely, including the land in his name, including cattle, sheep and horses, etc., except for the servants in her hand who did not give it, everything else that could be given was given.

Emperor Yuanwu almost didn't cry directly, he was not mistaken, Zhongli was really a good courtier.

He held Zhongli's hand, and assured Zhongli that he would definitely seal her a one-word king to sit side by side in the future, and promised Zhongli that the prince he would give birth to in the future would leave one for Zhongli.

Zhongli repeatedly refused, and finally left the palace.

Zhongli is now the emperor's favorite minister, and his every move is being watched, and he has just left the palace here, and the news has already leaked out there.

It's quite unorthodox for him to do this, after all, everyone is an official in the same dynasty, and he gave the emperor money, do they want to give it?

It's the same as before, if you don't give it, you can't give it, and you don't have it if you give more? No one is like Zhongli, who eats enough alone and the whole family is not hungry.

So, one by one, they gritted their teeth and tightened their belts while giving silver to the emperor.

As for the emperor, he smiled without saying a word, and even felt a little dissatisfied in his heart, after all, Zhongli gave them all, but they were so stingy, and he thought they were all good ministers of his own before!

As the saying goes, people have to die more than people, and goods have to be thrown away!

Day by day, Zhongli's proportion in the emperor's heart is getting bigger and bigger, and it's getting bigger and bigger, and even, the emperor wants Zhongli to come over and chat if he has nothing to do.

For such a good thing, of course, Zhongli will not refuse.

It's just that what he didn't tell the emperor was that he had pulled enough hatred for himself like this, and when everyone found out that he couldn't meet the emperor's requirements no matter what, and even gradually lost his favor and trust in the emperor's eyes, and even lost his own interests all the time, no one could sit still!

However, at this critical juncture, someone appeared and even threw an olive branch to them, not only promising them benefits, but also giving them hope.

From the dragon's work! Who doesn't want it?

Yuanwu's world, in the back, is being eaten away little by little.

And Emperor Yuanwu is still sitting in the palace with his own dream of sitting in the world.
