After many days, His Majesty the Emperor finally made a statement, but his reaction was very different from what everyone imagined, I thought that whether it was to stabilize the family with a gentle attitude, or to tear off the skin and fight to the end, this should be to reconcile the contradictions between the family and the court.

Who would have thought that His Majesty the Emperor's will has nothing to do with the affairs of the imperial court, second, it is not related to the family, and third, it has nothing to do with the Jinyiwei who is in charge of doing it.

The emperor only talked about the year-end ceremony, and by the way, he gave the names of all His Royal Highnesses, and asked them to stay in the capital honestly and not move.

This will is really very strange, if it weren't for the fact that the old emperor couldn't be held hostage, these people would have wanted to rush to Zixiao Palace in person to ask about it.

However, soon, the emperor's will was interpreted into another meaning, since the emperor did not explicitly prohibit Jinyiwei's actions, that is to say, the emperor agreed with Jinyiwei's approach.

"Your Majesty didn't take action, not because he felt that this was a good time to deal with the family, but because he couldn't take care of these mundane things."

In the small courtyard of South Street, Meng Yuan said to Lu Hanjiang: "Even if you and the crown princess join forces to force Your Majesty to advance his plan this time, are you not afraid that this matter will make a big fuss and will not be able to end?" ”

Lu Hanjiang smiled slightly: "Originally, the kid was still a little worried, after all, the power of the family is intertwined, and it affects the whole body, but now that I see the old man, you have the chance to win, I don't want to be afraid." ”

Meng Yuan glanced at Lu Hanjiang, skipped the topic as he spoke, and said: "Although the old man is deeply trusted by His Majesty, it is a matter of immortality, and the old man can't determine where His Majesty has progressed, or how much His Majesty knows. ”

"Immortality." Lu Hanjiang suddenly asked: "Birth, old age, sickness and death, this is a natural principle, and there should be no way to live forever in the world." ”

"You're right, but Your Majesty will only believe what you want to believe."

Meng Yuan sighed: "He has been obsessed with this matter for decades, you don't have to think that you can persuade him to turn back with just a few words, besides, if he really wakes up at this time, it will be a bad thing for you." ”

Lu Hanjiang said matter-of-factly: "Indeed, the stall you left behind is too big, if Your Majesty is not willing to pretend to be deaf and dumb anymore, I am afraid that we will have to go to the execution ground tomorrow." ”

Meng Yuan glared at Lu Hanjiang, and then said: "According to the day, there is only one month left before the year-end ceremony, and the old man only has one request, during this time, you should not conflict with the Chen family again." ”

"It seems that you always plan to put all the chips on at once," Lu Hanjiang thought for a while and said with a smile: "That's right, it's unlikely that this kind of thing will have a second chance, and it's completely unnecessary to save energy." ”

So Lu Hanjiang said again: "Don't worry, other families can't reach a consensus in such a short time, although the Chen family is menacing, they are too busy to take care of themselves, and I still have a helper." ”

Although the Chen family was divided into two after Chen Heguang's death, it was just that the Chen family's strength was strong, but it could not effectively hit them.

The fundamental problem is that Chen Heguang's death can make them share the same hatred, but it is only a forced cooperation of external forces, and the longer it drags on, the easier it is that such an alliance will fall apart.

In a month's time, even if the Chen clan fought desperately, Jin Yiwei would be able to stabilize the situation, but Lu Hanjiang had a better way than to use his strength in such a place.

Chen's eldest lady, Chen Yin, this person's performance was beyond Lu Hanjiang's expectations, first of all, it is undeniable that she is a daughter of filial piety to her father, and she is also a sister who respects her brother.

It's just that before this, she was an excellent seed cultivated by the family, and after finding out that she was used by Jinyiwei, even if the hatred of killing her father was suspicious and the hatred of killing her brother was real, she still let go of all the mustard and wanted to cooperate with Lu Hanjiang.

What Chen Yin wants to get back is the right of Chen Zihua's branch, and now their vein is almost dead, if she continues to be decadent, it is difficult to imagine the fate of their vein in the future, and the struggle for power and profit within the family is not simpler than the court.

And Lu Hanjiang is naturally happy to see this, compared to Jin Yiwei's personal end, Chen Yin's existence can effectively eliminate the hostility of a large part of the Chen clan.

Especially now that Qi Yunzhou is assisting, the vice president of the academy has a sincere idea of helping Chen Yin, after all, once the incident happens, the academy will not be able to fall well.

Although Meng Yuan didn't know Lu Hanjiang's plans, he could feel good, I'm afraid it wouldn't be a good idea, but in this regard, he just said lightly: "It's good that you know it in your heart." ”

"Don't worry, old man, everything outside is easy to do, and the difficulties are there."

Lu Hanjiang pointed in the direction of the imperial city, then spread his hands and sighed: "Even if everyone in Jinyi Wei is strong in martial arts and can fly the eaves and walk the wall, but that high wall can still stop them, not to mention, the forbidden army is also a big trouble." ”

Indeed, if you compete for personal strength, the ten forbidden armies may not be able to stop a brocade guard, as for the so-called commanders of the forbidden army, Lu Hanjiang doesn't have to go out in person, and Wu Qiming will clean them all up.

But the problem is not here, no matter how strong the Jinyi Guard is, it is impossible to storm the imperial city without preparation, not to mention whether it can be fought or not, this kind of blatant rebellion will have an uncontrollable impact.

Since the old man wants to play a big game, the most important thing is how to quickly take this imperial city, otherwise once the raid turns into a protracted battle, then their chances of victory will be infinitely reduced over time.

Lu Hanjiang really didn't have a good way to deal with this, after all, by now, he was very unfamiliar with this imperial city, let alone had any preparations.

To this, Meng Yuan only replied.

"Don't worry, the forbidden army won't be an obstacle."

Meng Yuan sneered and said an earth-shattering word: "Wen Kongheng, the commander of the forbidden army, is our people. ”

Lu Hanjiang was stunned, and it took him a long time to come to his senses, and then he held back a sentence: "Old man, how did you do it?" ”

The emperor's most trusted right-hand man, and even the two people who are used to check and balance each other, have already become a group of people in private, and Meng Yuan's hand is indeed unexpected.

Lu Hanjiang frowned and said: "Your Majesty doesn't look like a fool, and you and Commander Wen don't seem to be at odds with each other, I think it's true that the Great Commander wants to beat you every time he quarrels with you." ”

"Haha, what's more, he has long wanted to kill me, but it is precisely because of this that His Majesty has never doubted that he will cooperate with me."

Meng Yuan narrowed his eyes and said, "Wen Kongheng seems to be upright and inflexible, but in fact he is a person who is very good at hiding himself, do you know that the Wen family was beaten to death by himself." ”

"I know, I heard that the Grand Commander doesn't seem to care about this." Lu Hanjiang nodded.

Meng Yuan sneered: "He is pretending, he is more precious to this son than anyone else, otherwise it is impossible for him to send a half-sized son to His Majesty's eyes." ”

Lu Hanjiang was puzzled: "In that case, why did the Great Commander beat him to death?" ”

"That child was not killed by him, when he was sent to the Wen Mansion, it was already a corpse," Meng Yuan said coldly: "The person who really killed him was the old man." ”
