Chapter 372: Money, the Emperor, and the Assassin
One meal was exchanged for more than 20 million yuan, more than 900 catties of gold and nearly 100 warehouses of grain, and the money and grain for Liu Che's 'Third Battle of Mobei' were successfully resolved.
Along with it, more than 3 million 'Dahan Bond Coins' were also advanced, which became the 'hard currency' of the big dogs in Chang'an City in the latest stage.
This is the first step of Yang Chuan's plan.
The second step, of course, is to find a way to circulate the 'Great Han Bond Coin' in a wider range of fields, so as to further make it an indispensable part of the Han Empire and be recognized by more people.
Therefore, early the next morning, Yang Chuan entered Weiyang Palace without having breakfast.
Li Guangli was scolded by Yang Chuanyin and went crazy.
Liu Che was afraid that he would also be infected with that strange and terrible 'mildew', so he casually found an excuse to send Li Yannian out of the palace and start liking the little women in the harem again.
This matter is extremely secret, if it weren't for Cui Jiu's old thief who said it once, Yang Chuan really couldn't believe that Liu Che, who was regarded as the 'Emperor of the Ages' by later generations, actually liked men......
Of course, these are all subsections, which is not surprising.
In Yang Chuan's own words, that is, a person, when he has nothing wrong, he will either become a saint or a pervert.
Only such an 'informal' Liu Che can feel down-to-earth, and he will not have so many worries when interacting, and he has to do things again, and he must always guard against the emperor's yin, and this special mother's life is really impossible.
"I heard that you used a meal and a dozen jars of spirits to deceive me out of more than 20 million dollars?"
Liu Che summoned Yang Chuan in the dormitory, looking quite tired, under the sun, the fine wrinkles on his face were very obvious, and the whole person was very depressed: "This little money and food is only enough to fight a battle." β
Yang Chuan knelt on a futon, quietly made his legs more comfortable, and replied seriously: "This is the first batch of money and grain, if there is no accident in the future, there should be some money and grain coming in." β
Liu Che let out an 'oh', gently kneading his eyebrows and temples, his eyes closed, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
After a long time, he suddenly asked, "Is Li Guangli's poison still saved?" β
Yang Chuan shook his head: "Wei Chen heard Da Changmen say that his skin has begun to ulcerate all over his body, and his lips are bruised, especially fecal and urine incontinence...... I guess it's hopeless. β
"When Weichen was a slave in the Qiang tribe in his early years, he saw this kind of disease."
"I heard the high priest of the Aries tribe say that this is poisoned by someone, and if you are scattered and have nothing to desire during the day, it will naturally have no effect, and you will be like ordinary people; However, once the poisoned person's mind is too deep and the distracting thoughts and ambitions are too hot, the heart poison will attack, and eventually the whole person will rot and turn into a pool of fishy and unpleasant black water......"
Liu Che waved his hand quite irritably: "Okay, okay, I only ask if you can be cured, you have a fart for you to talk so much!" β
Yang Chuan arched his hand and remained silent.
Some words, it's not enough to point to the point, you have to put a few more knives on Liu Che's wound, sprinkle some pepper, salt and pepper or something, and let him enjoy it slowly.
Enjoy the three thousand beauties of the harem, the little women in the world can get whichever you want, it's not enough for you to toss, you want to like Li Guangli and Li Yannian, the disgusting people of Zhente Niang.
Yang Chuan was full of slander in his heart, but the expression on his face did not change, he always had a harmless smile from humans and animals, and he looked extremely handsome under the early morning sun......
Gradually, the atmosphere in the dormitory was a little wrong.
Yang Chuan was stunned to find that Liu Che's two eyes gradually became a little bright, and he looked at him directly, with a strange smile on the corner of his mouth.
This isγIs it fancied?
Yang Chuan only felt that the cold hair on his back stood upside down, and he couldn't help but want to fight a cold war.
However, he secretly took a deep breath, held three or five breaths, and then slowly exhaled, finally gently erasing the strange, disgusting, and fearful emotion.
"Your Majesty."
Yang Chuan thought about it sideways, as if he was recalling something not very good: "At that time, I was young, and those Qiang people thought that I didn't understand the language of the Qiang and Xiongnu, so many of their conversations were not guarded against me, so I heard a lot of their secret things, one of which was about this kind of domineering and extremely poisonous ......."
Liu Che really came to the spirit.
He slowly rolled over and sat up, frowned and asked, "What are the details?" β
Yang Chuan said with a look of reminiscence: "At that time, there was a high priest of the Qiang people who said that this poison was called Gu poison, which came from the mysterious and miasma-filled southwest, and it was the priest over there who raised Gu worms in the human brain marrow, and when the Gu worms matured, they would slowly eat the brain marrow of that person, and lay tens of thousands of eggs at the same time.
These eggs grow rapidly under the nourishment of the human cerebral marrow, and will spread along the human veins, blood vessels, muscles and bones.
It is said that at this stage, people who have been poisoned will have itching all over their bodies, ulcerated skin, and emit a foul smell......"
Liu Che shuddered and scolded with a smile: "Where did you kid hear about such a terrible thing, I got goosebumps when I heard it." β
As he spoke, he rolled up his sleeves for Yang Chuan to see, and there was indeed a layer of fine goosebumps on his arm.
Yang Chuan sighed and said helplessly: "Weichen was only seven or eight years old at the time, and when he heard this kind of secret thing, he was really scared to death, and every night when he closed his eyes, he wondered if he would be poisoned by someone......
Liu Che glanced at it with disgust: "Can you have some interest?" β
Yang Chuan smiled bitterly, and then said: "Later, I learned that the Gu worms in the southwest land are very valuable, where are people willing to waste it on a lowly slave? β
"Moreover, listening to those high priests, among the Qiang and Xiongnu, many kings, princesses and princes died inexplicably, that is, someone secretly planted Gu poison, and when necessary, let the Gu poison eat the brain marrow of those people, and make the Gu worms begin to multiply in large numbers, and finally, turn that person into a pool of dirty blood."
Yang Chuan made up nonsense while silently observing Liu Che's face, and found that this guy actually listened to it with relish, without the slightest hint of unbearable color.
It seems that the emperor is a creature that can no longer be classified as human.
"In addition, the high priest of the Aries tribe once said that the scourge of Gu poison is extremely harmful, but it is not easy to give people Gu, but there is a secret that can quickly plant Gu poison on people."
Yang Chuan paused, just waiting for Liu Che to ask curiously.
Sure enough, Liu Che asked, "What's the secret?" β
Yang Chuan said with some hesitation: "The high priest of the Aries tribe said that he had planted Gu seven or eight times for the prince of the Black Tiger Tribe, but he was never successful, and by chance, he discovered this secret. β
"That is, I planted Gu poison for one of the prince's most trusted guards, and as a result, the prince and the guards have been in the same room for a long time, and the prince unexpectedly has a Gu worm in his brain......
Liu Che was finally a little moved.
The corners of his eyes twitched a few times, the anger in his eyes flashed, and in an instant, the whole person became deep and terrifying, staring at Yang Chuan coldly.
For a long time.
He said indifferently: "Are you satirizing Li Guangli?" β
Yes, this brain circuit is okay......
Yang Chuan was slandered in his heart, but his face was sincere and fearful: "Your Majesty, Weichen is talking nonsense, and the right should be a little legend of the Qiang tribe." β
Liu Che was stunned for a while, suddenly sighed, turned his head to Cui Jiu, who was napping on the pillar, and ordered: "Dachangmen, someone will move Li Meiren to Shanglin Yuan, and find a quieter place for her to recuperate." β
In addition, Li Yannian and Li Guangli ...... Kill it. β
Cui Jiu got up, arched his hand, and went out without saying a word......
β¦β¦
Half an hour later, Yang Chuan came out of Weiyang Palace.
In the depths of winter, Chang'an City is very cold, and there are a few faint clouds floating in the blue sky; The Qinling Mountains in the distance are like a monster, speckled with some greenery in the vastness, looking at it at this moment, except for some snowy white snow shining on the peak, it is a little hideous, and indifferently looking down at the land of Guanzhong.
In front of the golden palace gate of Weiyang Palace, Yang Chuan's face was as calm as water, but his heart was always filled with an inexplicable chill, which made him want to pee.
Today's Liu Che is terrible.
This was the first time he felt that as an emperor with the world in mind, the inexplicable coldness and indifference exuded from Liu Che's body were much colder than the snow this winter.
made up a legend and story, killed Li Yannian and Li Guangli casually, and made Liu Che finally start to dislike Li Meiren, and moved her out of the palace and sent her to Shanglin Yuan to wait for death silently, Yang Chuan should have been happier, but thinking of Liu Che's indifference and ruthlessness, he couldn't help but shiver.
Today is Li Yannian and Li Guangli who fell out of favor and were killed by Liu Che.
So, what about him Yang Chuan falling out of favor tomorrow?
And what about the general Wei Qing, the champion Hou Huo Quai, and Pingyang Hou Cao Xiang?
It is said that ruthlessness is the most emperor's family, and a few people will think before making contributions that one day, the more miracles you create for the Han Empire, you will be one step closer to death in the eyes of the emperor......
"Marquis Changning, was beaten by the emperor again?"
Li Dang mixed well this dog's day, and he didn't go to Jiangnan with Huo Quai, and now he stayed with the emperor and became the commander of the guards, with a rank of more than 2,500 stones, which was higher than the 'salary' of his unlucky son Li Guang.
When this thing saw Yang Chuan coming out, he probed his head and grinned: "Some time ago, Cao Xiang, the Marquis of Pingyang, entered the palace and was almost broken by the emperor and broke his legs. β
The corners of Yang Chuan's mouth twitched, and he scolded with a smile: "You are very capable of dogs, don't you look at our own brother's jokes?" β
Li Dang hurriedly jumped out, and said with a smile: "In the Yulin Army, as far as you Changning Hou looks at me Li Dang, not only do you not stumble in many things, but you can also give me some military merits, and I Li Dare to remember this affection."
As for Pingyang Hou Cao Xiang, that guy has eyes above the top during the day, and he has never looked at my Longxi Li family with his eyes, and he still wants me to lick him? β
Yang Chuan asked quietly, "What about going to the disease?" β
Li Dang suddenly sighed and said, "Huo Quai's illness and I have been in harmony with each other for a long time, and you Changning Hou don't know it, so this time the Yulin Army went south, and the emperor didn't let me go with me." β
"Actually, you also know that the little dirt between me and the sick is a fart, it's nothing more than ...... That's it, anyway, if you can't go into battle to kill the enemy, you won't be able to live this special mother's life. β
The thing looked very annoyed, kicked a stubborn stone under his feet, and then, with a strong kick, kicked the stone out of the air, and smashed it heavily on the palace wall, leaving a faint white mark.
It can be seen that without going out with the Yulin Army, Li Kang's mood is very low.
"Isn't your official position promoted," Yang Chuan found a big tree, and sprinkled a big bubble of urine at the gate of Weiyang Palace, "Your father Li Guang has made great achievements in battle, and now he is still a Taishou with a rank of two thousand stones?" β
Li Dang 'sighed' and scolded with disdain: "Just him? Still want to be a marquis? β
Yang Chuan: "......"
There is an old saying that the son does not say the fault of the father, which is one of the traditions of the Han Empire; But at the same time, there is another sentence that makes some sense, that is, the son of this world, who was born to do it for the sake of being more old, saying that it is more serious and is called 'father-killing plot', and if it is plain, it is 'rebellious'.
Li Dang is now eighteen years old and almost nineteen years old, and he is left in the next two thousand years, and such a 'second generation' like this may have already become a common anger of people and gods.
Yang Chuan fought a urine war, wiped the urine on Li Dang's scarlet coat, and then said slowly: "What's so good about fighting, it's better to hide in Chang'an City and be an official." β
Li Dang looked at Yang Chuan's big hand wipe, and scolded with disgust: "Changning Hou, next time you make a noise when you pee on your hands, I'll find you a silk scarf to wipe off, don't wipe your hands on me, okay?" β
Yang Chuan smiled and said nonchalantly: "Isn't this a smooth wipe......
"By the way, Li Kang, I heard that your father Li Guang is coming to Chang'an City, and when he comes, you must tell me and invite him to dinner."
Li Dang shook his head: "My father Li Guang is not very capable, but his reputation is too loud, every time he comes to Chang'an City, he has to be cautious, and he never has any dealings with other important ministers of the court." β
Yang Chuan let out an 'oh' sound, and didn't care: "It's okay, although I, Yang Chuan, am a big farmer, but who calls the two of us brothers in life and death?" When your father comes, you will say that I have a way to make him a marquis. β
Li Dang's eyes widened: "Really? β
Immediately, the thing seemed to realize that he was a little out of shape, and quickly restrained himself, glanced left and right, and then lowered his voice and asked, "Do you really have a way?" β
"However, although my father has been on the battlefield for decades, we all know in our hearts that he has some military merits, and at least he can earn a chariot and cavalry general with a rank ratio of 2,500 stones, right? But if you want to be a marquis, it's still a little bit less meaningful. β
You must know that the reason why Li Guang is difficult to seal the marquis is not actually Liu Che's pot, but Li Guang's conquest of the battlefield for decades, and the merits he has made are all the kind that are stable and stable.
"In addition, you tell him that the reason why Ben Hou wants to help him become a marquis is not because he has the intention of wooing," Yang Chuan thought for a while and added: "You also know that although I, Yang Chuan, am attached to the family of Princess Pingyang and the general Wei Qing, and I am a relative in the eyes of others, Ben Hou has never had the idea of forming a gang. β
Li Dare praised: "I believe what you say." β
You believe in the top.
Yang Chuan scolded with a smile, and got into the carriage by himself: "Okay, you continue to be on duty, and when you have time to come to the Great Agricultural Order, our brothers will drink a few jars of wine." β
Li Dang responded a little depressed, and he was quite disappointed when he looked at it.
Yang Chuan's car drove out for thirty or fifty zhang, Li Dang still stood at the cold palace gate and looked out, and couldn't help but stretch out a hand and wave it twice in the air: "Changning Hou, walk slowly......"
Right now.
With a loud bang, Yang Chuan's carriage suddenly flew out sideways, and the four horses pulling the carriage didn't have time to neigh, so they were thrown out of the distance, falling heavily to the ground and pumping constantly, and it looked like it was going to work.
"Assassin!"
"There are assassins!"
Li Dang's eyes widened suddenly, and with a roar, he drew his sword in his hand, and shouted the order: "Yulin orphans listen to the order, someone assassinates the Marquis of Changning, brothers, surround this radius of three miles!" β
