Chapter 23: Buying people's hearts
Li Cunxiao and the others were stunned, and hurriedly rushed over to rescue the driver.
But everyone else in the hall was far away from Zhao Xin, and only one eunuch who was injured and fell to the ground lay at Zhao Xin's feet.
Zhao Xin's expression was condensed, and he secretly used the "Nine Turns Golden Body Technique" technique in an instant.
Wang Jin was too fast, he couldn't dodge at all, so he had to use this technique to resist Wang Jin's blow.
In an instant, a figure flew in, blocking the sword that was about to pierce Zhao Xinxin's mouth.
"Whew!" Li Cunxiao then chased after him and seriously injured him with one blow.
Wang Jin's body landed in a strange posture, and he was spasming and vomiting blood.
Li Cunxiao went up with red eyes and wanted to smash Wang Jin's head with a lance, but Wan Chao quickly came over and stopped him.
"General Li stopped, and he had to take him down for trial. ”
Wang Jin was almost killed by Li Cunxiao's punch, but he was afraid that the bones of his body would be broken in many places.
Zhao Xin hugged the eunuch who blocked the fatal sword for him, completely ignoring the blood flowing from the other party's body and staining his robe.
With tears in his eyes, his expression was sad, and his voice was choked: "You sacrificed your life to save me, and I have the grace to save my life...... What's your name?"
"Slave...... Slave Liu Zheng. ”
The eunuch spoke with difficulty, knowing that he would not survive, but when he saw that the emperor was holding him in tears regardless of his identity, he was moved and relieved.
Those of them who are subordinates are like ants, and it is the most normal for them to block the knife for their masters.
But the emperor's current actions have deeply shocked him.
With the Lord like this, it is worth dying for him.
"Protect Your Majesty...... It is the ......duty of the slave and maid," Liu Zheng choked and coughed up a mouthful of blood, "I can serve Your Majesty, and the slave and maid die without regrets......"
Before he could finish his sentence, he swallowed.
Zhao Xin burst into tears and said: "Liu Zheng died to save my life, and I want to give him a beautiful funeral."
Liu Muzhi, go and check who else in his family, if there are those who serve the court, they will be promoted and reused.
If there are other circumstances, they should also be properly resettled to ensure that they have no worries for the rest of their lives. ”
When Cao Xiong and the other two eunuchs who were still alive saw this scene, they were both stunned and indescribably moved.
His Majesty was able to do this to an insignificant subordinate, which shows that he treats those who are loyal to him with sincerity.
At this moment, they have completely changed their opinion of the emperor, if they had to choose to be loyal to the emperor at the beginning, and now they see this scene, they are willing to serve.
"Obey. Liu Muzhi responded, and he naturally noticed the change in the expressions of the three eunuchs.
Your Majesty's recruitment has done a really beautiful job.
Zhao Xin also personally went over to condolence Cao Xiong and the three of them a few words, and the three of them were moved and flattered, supporting their injured bodies, thanking the emperor for their kindness, and expressing their loyalty.
Seeing that their ambition is 70 and their loyalty value is 90, Zhao Xinzhong is very satisfied.
For the emperor, rigidity and softness are the king's way.
He grieved and suffered for the eunuch who died for blocking the knife for himself, touching people's hearts with his feelings and making them completely return to their hearts.
The dying Wang Jin was taken down, and the injured were also sent to the Tai Hospital for treatment.
successfully won Wang Jin, but now is not the time to celebrate.
Zhao Xin ordered Li Cunxiao to take people to copy the East Factory, and the group of minions under his hands should be eliminated as soon as possible.
He wasn't worried that if he got rid of Wang Jin now, Cui Cen would come to him.
That Wang Jin put it bluntly, but he was just seeking refuge from Cui Cen.
They are not a community of interests, and Wang Jin's death will not affect him much.
But a lot of things happened one after another in the past two days, and Cui Cen must be very unhappy in his heart.
Now that Wang Jin has been eliminated, then Cui Cen will be next.
But this is an extremely difficult matter handed over to Liu Muzhi, Cui Cen is in charge of hundreds of officials, and it involves a lot, and it is not something that his current ability can shake.
It also needs to be deployed slowly and wait for the right time. At the same time, he also prevented his dog from jumping over the wall and directly attacking him.
Wang Jin was arrested and imprisoned by the emperor for slandering important officials of the imperial court, and the matter reached the ears of Cui Cen and Nan Cang respectively that night.
When Nancang heard the news, he nodded and smiled.
The emperor couldn't help but do it quickly and beautifully when he seized power in the palace, and he also rescued Kou Huairen and eliminated Wang Jin by the way, he said that he was very satisfied with this grandson-in-law.
Nancang instructed his youngest son: "Don't worry, send a letter to your eldest brother, so that Luoying knows about this marriage." ”
"The boy knows. ”
After Cui Cen received the news, he was a little surprised.
He didn't expect the emperor to act so quickly, and he didn't expect Wang Jin to be arrested by the emperor so easily.
Wang Jin knew that the emperor would not let him go, he should be extremely vigilant during this time, why did he enter the palace unguarded?
He ordered someone to check, only to find out that it was Cao Xiong who defected to the emperor, and Wang Jin was calculated.
Later, it was also found that when Cui Zhihan went to woo Cao Xiong according to his instructions, his attitude towards him was not good.
As shrewd as Cui Cen, he naturally understood why Cao Xiong defected to the emperor so quickly.
Originally, in his plan, Cao Xiong would definitely take refuge in his Cui family.
But how did he know that such a trivial matter actually let the eldest son mess up, but retreated Cao Xiong to the emperor.
It doesn't matter whether Wang Jin lives or dies, but once Nancang cooperates with the emperor, especially at this time, it will be trouble for him!
At this time, the rebellion of the Seven Kings became more and more intense, and urgent reports of military information came frequently.
Although Zhao Xin took back control of the palace, he did not restrict the Queen Mother from listening to the government.
First, if he personally intervenes in the Queen Mother's curtain to listen to the government, the Cui family will definitely react violently, and it is most appropriate for Nancang to handle this matter.
Second, he knew that the Queen Mother didn't dare to do anything to him now, he was just a tool man who thoroughly "listened to politics".
The next day, in the early court, many officials in the court and China played a song saying that it was inappropriate for the emperor to marry the Nan family.
I hope that the Queen Mother can persuade the emperor to cancel his plan to get married.
The opposing ministers had their own arguments, and explained from all sides that this family business was not suitable.
There are even direct people who say that Nancang does not respect the saints, and he does not even have the court to support the army, if the emperor marries his Nan family, wouldn't it make Nancang rebel?
Nancang didn't come early today, and there was no reason.
But he has a heavy army, and he needs to suppress the rebellion of the Seven Kings.
Now, in addition to the ministers of the DPRK and China saying a few words about Nancang, Cui Cen also compromised by default.
After all, now on the grounds that Nancang is not in court, it is not appropriate to trouble him.
"The emperor and the Nan family are married, this matter is not in line with etiquette! The queen mother, you are the emperor's mother, and I hope to go back and persuade one or two more!"
"Where did Lord Zhang's words come from? How can the marriage between the emperor and the Nan family not conform to the etiquette system?"
Tai Chang, who was in charge of etiquette, stood out and said with a smile.
"The Queen Mother, the lower officials feel that this is an excellent family business.
There is no such thing as impropriety. ”
That Master Zhang snorted coldly when he heard this, this is too often Xu Han is from Nancang.
Usually in the court, he is silent and low-key, but today he defended the marriage.
The Queen Mother listened to the speeches of the ministers, and then looked at Cui Cen, who was standing at the head of the hundred officials and did not say a word.
I couldn't help but smile bitterly in my heart, the emperor's marriage, where is it her turn to say half a sentence now?
The elder brother should know that she is in a predicament now, and the only one who can save her from the predicament is the elder brother......
