Volume 1 The Hidden Dragon in the Abyss Chapter 150 The slave and maid retire
On this day approaching the New Year, several major events occurred in a row that shook the Jin government and the opposition.
The old emperor Shangguan Ming, who had reigned for nearly 40 years, died suddenly, and his nickname was determined by the historians of the imperial court on the same day, as "Kang" The most bizarre thing is that before Shangguan Ming's death, he actually passed the throne to the least favored, only three years old nineteen princes, you know, his mother's background is just an ordinary palace maid, accidentally favored by the first emperor and then pregnant, and was able to enjoy the treatment of concubines, but in the final analysis, in the harem, the status of this kind of concubine is the lowest, and their children cannot have the opportunity to inherit the throne no matter what.
But that's the case, the new emperor's enthronement ceremony was soon held in the capital, everything was hasty, as if it had been discussed in advance, all kinds of bizarre things happened in one day, which also led to various versions of rumors in the government and the opposition, in short, they were all gods, as if everyone was on the scene, and they were the ones who knew the inside story.
This is nothing, what is even more surprising is that Cai Jing, the great Situ of the dynasty, died on the same day that Shangguan Ming died, and finally won the title of "Wenzheng", the highest pursuit of scholars, so that the whole family is honored, but at this most glorious moment, the Cai family moved out of the capital overnight, and finally disappeared, and there were a lot of rumors among the people.
As for another thing, it is much more low-key, basically only the officials within the court know, and most of them are silent, unwilling to mention more, resulting in the people still do not know, this matter is the only son of the dynasty Sima Chen Xiehu, Chen Jing, was named Dazai by the first emperor, in terms of status, and even above the three dukes, he commanded hundreds of officials, and monopolized power, which is not counted, he was also crowned the father of the new emperor, the honorary prince, assisting the new emperor in governing the country, this kind of treatment, not even under one person, can only be regarded as an honorary courtier, but in fact, everyone knows who has the final say in this Jin Kingdom now。
The next day, more than 30 ministers handed in their resignations together on the grounds that they were unwell and could not continue to be loyal to the imperial court, and before they could get the approval from the imperial court, they left the officialdom that had been up and down for half their lives, and each returned to his hometown.
At this point, the entire Jin Kingdom is respected by Dazai Chen Jing.
-----------------------------------------------
Liangguo Beijing, the famous prince's mansion on the street of Dongcheng District.
Gu Cang rarely sat at the desk today to correct the official document file as usual, but lay comfortably on the chair, while Xiaolu, the beautiful personal maid next to him, was kneeling on the ground, moving his muscles and bones for him with a concerned face, and pinching his body.
Since Gu Cang was in a hurry that day and said such hurtful words, the relationship between Ning Shuang and him has become much stranger.
Gu Cang understood that she was depressed in her heart, but what could he do? He couldn't promise her, even if it was a lie.
Besides, there have been so many things lately, and he really doesn't have time to deal with this most difficult personal affair to explain.
It is rare to have the opportunity to let herself serve closely, Xiaolu can be regarded as doing her best, rubbing the corners carefully, and almost took off her clothes directly to let Gu Cang ask for her body, but Gu Cang on the recliner didn't understand the amorous feeling at all, just opened his eyes and looked at the sky, and his eyes were full of bloodshot accumulated because of hard work.
"Childe, just sleep for a while. ”
Gu Cang didn't move, didn't even bother to respond, just looked at himself in a daze.
Xiaolu had no choice but to continue to massage him, and at the same time, secretly, relying on her newly learned methods, stimulated some indescribable acupuncture points on Gu Cang's body, she was not willing to be an ordinary maid like this, or a yamen leader who could not see the light and could only hide in the dark.
Gu Cang felt that something was wrong, and suddenly reached out and grabbed her fingers that were straining hard, Xiaolu was startled, and was about to say something.
The door was suddenly opened, Ning Shuang held a scroll in both hands, and walked in with a cold face, just happened to see this scene, and suddenly the expression on his face became even darker, and his eyes unconsciously drooped, like willow leaves hanging low, which was distressing.
When Gu Cang saw it, his heart was sour, and he quickly shook off Xiaolu's hand, and then opened his mouth and ordered, "Xiaolu, you go down first." ”
Xiaolu, who was familiar with the temperament of his prince, didn't dare to say much, so he hurriedly gave a blessing, and then stepped on small steps and retreated lightly.
Ning Shuang stepped forward, knelt in front of Gu Cang, raised his hands, presented the tray, lowered his head, and tried to keep his voice calm: "It's an urgent matter from the Jin Kingdom, something big has happened." ”
On the yellow and white intertwined dossier on the tray, there is a huge word "heaven" written on it.
Heaven and earth, gods, ghosts, this is the highest level, and it is also the most urgent information, Gu Cang saw it, he didn't care about anything else, he quickly sat up from the recliner, and then stretched out his hand to unfold the scroll and looked at it carefully.
"Jin State Coup?"
As soon as he saw the first four words, Gu Cang's expression changed suddenly.
You must know that the Jin and Wei countries in the northeast, as well as the Shahai Yiren in the northwest, and the Shu State in the northwest, these four forces are the first and only light card to curb the northward movement of the Liang Kingdom and unify the southern land.
After looking at it for a long time, Gu Cangcai finally put down the scroll, and Yang Tian sighed: "The soldiers are very fast, in just half a day, they have won the Great Situ Cai Jing and the Emperor Shangguan Ming, and then support the nineteen princes who have nothing to do, and they will be alone and monopolize the military and political power, this Chen Jing is not simple!"
Such a big thing happened, even when Ning Shuang heard about it, he was a little shocked.
The Jin Kingdom is one of the four major forces in the north, and it can be said that it is only stronger than the forces of the Rakshasa clan in the sand sea who drink blood and scatter the sand, and it can be regarded as the one they look down on the most.
There is no other reason, the capital of the Jin State has been hundreds of years, the bureaucracy is serious, and it has long been rotten to the roots, and the battle thirty years ago broke the last fig leaf of the Jin State, the entire elite of the Jin Kingdom, the whole army was wiped out on the shore of Yanran Lake, the vitality was greatly damaged, and there was no power to fight, you must know that this is not comparable to the Wei Guo who has been recuperating beside him, the Jin State is now relying on natural risks, plus the Liang State has no idea of using troops for the time being, so that it can temporarily hold the country, as for sending troops to take the initiative, it is even more impossible.
Moreover, Gu Cang also arranged a lot of backhands in the Jin Kingdom, just so that he could quickly break through the defense of the entire Jin State in one fell swoop, and then use this as a pass to encircle the not weak Weiguo next to him, and then the natural dangers on both sides will be useless, and the whole country will completely open its arms to the Liang Kingdom, and allow it to be taken, but after this incident, that Chen Jing almost swept through almost all the layout of other countries in the Jin Kingdom with lightning speed, if it weren't for the cleverness of the people under them, I am afraid that even this news would not be able to come back.
Gu Cang rubbed his temples on both sides with some annoyance, and said, "Why hasn't there been any news of this Chen Jing before?"
Ning Shuang folded his hands in front of his waist, hung his head and replied softly: "Chen Jing is the son of the great Sima of the Jin Kingdom, and he has always been shown as a person who lingers in the gambling house Qinglou and does not learn and has no skills, so Tianluo has not paid much attention to him, and the strength of our subordinates in the Jin Kingdom is basically used to infiltrate the court officials, and there is not much information about him, so it is indeed a dereliction of duty for his subordinates." ”
Gu Cang shook his head lightly and sighed: "What a lingering Qinglou gambling house, Taoguang is obscure, the hidden dragon is in the abyss, if you don't make a sound, it's a blockbuster, good! good!"
He couldn't help but praise three times in a row, and then said: "It's a pity that such a talent was born in the Jin Kingdom by mistake, and I am afraid that he will be destroyed with the Jin Kingdom at that time, woo hoo lament!"
Ning Frost lowered her head and didn't reply.
Gu Cang sighed, then lay down on the back of the chair again, waved his hand, and ordered: "Just let the people on the Jin side dive first, the same method is not to defend at the same time, the two Jin countries use it together, smart people will naturally see the clues, and I will talk about it when I think of a new plan." ”
Frost lowered her head and replied softly, "Yes." ”
Gu Cang pondered for a moment and asked, "Is there no news from the fifth brother?"
In fact, this is the reason why Gu Cang can't sleep well these days, he has invested too much energy in Gu Xuan's body, and even completely cultivated him as his successor, but he never expected that if he was not careful, he would be intercepted and killed outside, and now he still doesn't know whether he is alive or dead.
Gu Cang mentioned this, and Ning Shuang was also very helpless: "The slave maid asked his subordinates to take a look, the terrain is complicated, judging by the traces of the scene, the fifth master should have been forced to fall off the cliff at that time, and his subordinates went below, there was a big lake, and after that, the traces were completely cut off, and his subordinates searched nearby for a long time, but there was no other useful information." ”
Gu Cang's whole person became extremely irritable rarely: "The news is too slow, this should be the news of the previous day, maybe the fifth child has already walked back to Huangsha County by himself, but we don't know anything now, and we can only plan for the worst." ”
Ning Shuang reminded: "It's already the fastest bird to use, but it takes at least a day to go back and forth for thousands of miles." ”
"What about the Xiao Cavalry Guard named Jinglong?" Gu Cang continued to ask.
"He shouldn't have died, because his body was not found at the scene, maybe he ran away, or maybe he was captured. ”
Gu Cang couldn't help but be annoyed and said, "It should, it should, everything should be!
Ning Shuang was stunned, so he could only lower his head, lean over, and said softly: "It's the slave who is incompetent, please punish the son." ”
This tone 。。。。。。
Gu Cang was stunned for a moment when he heard it, and only then did he react when he saw the frost lying in front of him.
"Frost, I'。。。。。。 ”
He was just about to explain his previous angry words, but when he thought of his own illness, Gu Cang finally just sighed and said weakly: "Okay, you go down." ”
The sound of frost was as calm as the icy water of Yanran Lake on a winter day.
"Yes, the slave and maid are gone. ”
