Chapter 50: Betrayal of the Covenant and Trapping of the Pond (3)
Lan Yuan looked at the confused King Xu, put the bamboo fan aside, and admonished: "Xia Guan sees that the fortune of the Liu Party is flourishing, and Yan Wen uses a plan to appease the minister, and the breath is a little restrained, and there will be many people in Beijing who cherish their lives." With the crown prince and others alone, there is no way to overthrow the government, this is Sun Weigao's faint head, and he is betting on you. ”
"But the royal brother treats me well......"
"No, even if you bring your own soldiers into Beijing, the Liu Party can organize a combatable division, how can it match it?" Lan Yuan spread his hands and said, "If I say something rebellious, the East Palace will probably be doomed." ”
King Xu frowned, bit his fingers, and sighed abruptly: "Is it difficult for me to report the imperial brother?" Can't you have the best of both worlds? ”
Lan Yuan smiled bitterly: "Your Highness, who made the crown prince unstable and wanted to do such a thing." For the sake of leaving a residual vein for the country, please stop practicing the kindness of women. ”
When he heard the word 'Yu Mai', his heart trembled slightly, which was clearly his intention to let him inherit the throne. He realized the danger of this statement from the potential, and wanted to refute it, but he swallowed it with his saliva, and he did not have the courage to contain a sign in his heart.
"That'...... Lan Waiter, how do you want to snitch? King Xu asked hesitantly.
"Liu Zhennian is too suspicious, if he tells the prince about his scheme, he will be suspected in the future, and he will definitely be killed," Lan Yuan said calmly, "It is better to express loyalty to the Liu Party first, and wait for the prince's reverse form to gradually appear, and then report it, it is not too late." ”
"And what about now?" King Xu had no choice but to continue to ask him.
"You told the messenger that you need to be very cautious about the mutiny, and if you don't see the East Palace in person, don't dare to make a rash appointment."
"Good!" King Xu slapped the table, "This king will follow your words." ”
The envoy tiptoed into the distance, and suddenly saw King Xu coming with a confident look, he was surprised and delighted, and hurriedly stepped forward to ask: "Has His Royal Highness King Xu made a decision?" ”
"My heart of loyalty to the army and serving the country can be learned from God. But," said King Xu, placing his hand on the messenger's shoulder and patting it gently, "this is a feat that shakes the past and the present, and if one section goes wrong, it will be a loss." Unless the royal brother interviews me, this king will always be suspicious and uneasy. ”
Although the envoy felt that there was a polite refusal in this, he thought about it and said, 'He has lived outside Beijing for a long time, and he doesn't know the details of what I am waiting for, so what he said is right.' Then he nodded and said, "Your Highness has his own hardships, small understanding. I should return to Lord Sun and hope for good news. ”
"Go, go!"
Sun Weigao's steps were very hurried, he walked from the official office to the aisle of the cobblestone road, walked a section of bluestone slabs, and slowly arrived in front of a palace. As soon as his left foot was lifted and stepped on the threshold, he came to a slow stop.
"Got it."
Sun Weigao tilted his body, listened to the words of the messenger, waved his hand, lifted his belt a few times, and went in.
"Chen Hanlin Scholar Sun Weigao knocks to see His Highness!"
"Sun Hanlin, please get up." The prince hurriedly supported him, "I don't know what King Xu's brother thinks?" ”
"Your Royal Highness," Sun Weigao dusted the ashes on his knees, "King Xu is also willing to kill the national thief with me and help Sheji." However, he wants to meet you, so he will not give up. ”
The prince clapped his hands and said, "God help me!" Since he is for my foreign aid, why bother with the Liu Party's counterattack! If you want to see me, you can leave for it today. ”
Sun Weigao was terrified, and kowtowed again: "Your Highness, you must not give up your noble body." In addition, Yan Wen's mind is vicious, if he knows that His Royal Highness suddenly said that he would leave Beijing, he would be vigilant and scheming! If you don't pretend to use a method, it will be comprehensive. ”
When the prince heard this, he pondered and sat back in his chair.
"You can make people falsely report that there is an auspicious image in the near state, and ask the East Palace to look at it instead of the Son of Heaven; When it comes to King Xu's mansion, he can talk with him secretly, and Yan Wen will not be aware of it. ”
The prince felt that it was reasonable and looked at Sun Weigao: "Alas, then there is Mr. Lao." ”
Sun Weigao agreed, and slowly withdrew from the hall, and the door of the hall closed slightly, leaving only darkness.
"Open the door."
A black shadow stood out from it, pushed open the door of the yamen, and saw that it was Wei Chong coming.
"Wei Shuban, how is the tone of Yuefu?" His dog-legged scribe said.
"Not good!" Wei Chong sighed, "If you really want to start with Qi Advisor, I still have to estimate it." ”
"Let's do it," the scribe bent over and said with a flattering smile, "Nanjing can be without Qi Counsel, you can't do without you, this is a truth that many adults are well aware of." ”
"Rabbits eat the grass next to the nest when they are in a hurry. If it's really inaccurate and provokes Lu Fangxuan, we can only stay under the hands of King Wanjun. Wei Chong said.
"It's good that you should give him a blow and see your means. It doesn't have to be with Ma Si's gang. ”
Wei Chong stomped his foot: "Then I'll go to the king of the county." ”
"What do you want?" Wan Heshun sat upright and asked.
"The little one wants to arrest Chen Tong, the counselor of the Yue Mansion, and ask the county king to write a document and stamp a seal, so that I can teach me to be a famous teacher."
"Take a pen and paper."
Wan Heshun spread the white paper, studied the ink, took out the pen, turned his head and asked, "Wei Chong, what is the best thing to write?" ”
"The villain has already been convicted, so he will be arrested in the name of 'consulting for the chief officer, using the stolen money of corruption, holding a wine banquet every year, moving ten thousand taels, and the crime should be punished severely'." Wei Chong pointed to the blank piece of paper and said with a smile at Wan Heshun.
"Okay!" Wan Heshun laughed, "These words are ready, it seems that you have lived up to your own officials!" I'm going to have to write it to you! ”
Wan Heshun wrote it word for word, then covered it with a seal, tore it off, and handed it to Wei Chong: "Be sure to keep it secret, get this matter done for me!" ”
Wei Chong kowtowed, stuffed the note into his arms, and left the mansion under the escort of the servants of Wanfu. As he looked around the street, he missed two large men who were enjoying the shade under the trees, staring closely at his position.
"Went to Wanfu?!"
Zheng Shiyan stood up in surprise, "I knew that he was not good, but he was arranged by ten thousand thieves. ”
"You keep watching him for me!" The officer next to him commanded.
"Yes."
"Don't go, stay a little longer, and be ready to deal with new situations." Zheng Shiyan saw that it was getting late, and everyone was a little tired, so he hurriedly ordered.
The Western bell rang, and half an hour had passed.
"Newspaper!! Wei Chong and the Yamen soldiers have marched towards our mansion! ”
When all the officials heard this, they all looked at each other and spit out a heavy breath.
"If he goes to Counselor Chen for trouble, we won't be able to handle it!" Someone said happily.
"In case he made a plan to attack us all and play us all wrong, then ......"
"What do you say?"
"Shengdong ......"
"Report!"
Another soldier in the hall trotted over: "Wei Chong turned around and ...... Xiang Qi went up to the consulate! ”
As soon as these words came out, the officers made a lot of noise, and there was an uproar inside and outside the hall, and an uneasy atmosphere enveloped Yuefu.
