Chapter 076 [Frustrated Poison]
"Why did you come back when you left?" Princess Wannian couldn't figure this out. In her opinion, life is the most precious, and there is no reason to come back to die.
"I wanted to come back for revenge, but I didn't expect the princess of Wannian to be you." Liu Bei said calmly.
"Revenge? What enmity do I have against you? Princess Wannian was surprised.
"You turned me around, and you still don't have a grudge?"
Princess Wannian asked, "Are you still planning to take revenge now?" ”
"Everyone has a death hole, you see me, the upper lip is thicker than the lower lip, and I am a person of great affection. What is this grudge, as if we have never met. ”
Although Princess Wannian believed the other party's words, she never understood why Liu Bei gave up again. "Is it because you and Ben can't kill me?"
Liu Bei leaned his head closer and whispered, "Every important person is always guarded by bodyguards. If I do it, I believe that no one will have time to save me at such a close distance. But if I kill you, I won't be able to escape. Liu Bei will not do this kind of business without making money or losing money. ”
"If I asked you to stay, would you say yes?"
"What are you going to do here? There has to be a reason, right? Liu Bei asked rhetorically. It won't make me emperor, will it? ”
Princess Wannian was surprised how the other party could guess it, and now she thinks about it, what she did, the other party should guess it. "What, don't want to?"
"You look at the way I look like a child, am I suitable to be an emperor?" Liu Bei was shocked, how did he guess it casually?
"The grandson of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty also came from the market, and didn't he still become an emperor later?" Princess Wannian persuaded.
"If I become the Ninety-Five, what about you? Don't want to be a female emperor? ”
Princess Wannian said calmly: "If you can be a queen, it is also a good choice." ”
"You look at me highly. I am not the ancestor Emperor Gaozu, and I can't tolerate such a smart and ambitious 'Lu Zhi' by my side, let alone the queen's throne. ”
"I'm not worthy to be a queen?"
"It's not that I'm unworthy, it's just that I'm not worthy of being the emperor with you as the queen. You must know that there are no two strong countries in the country, and when a queen is more capable than the emperor, the courtiers will be terrified, and the world will not be peaceful like this. ”
Princess Wannian knew that the other party was hinting at Empress Lu's rebellion. "I can just ask about political affairs and concentrate on taking care of the harem for you."
"Let's not talk about anything else. Although I am a descendant of Gaozu, I ...... be an emperor" Liu Bei shook his head, clearly telling the other party that it would not work, but he couldn't say it in his heart. When it came to this, Liu Bei felt that it was almost over, and got up and left.
Princess Wannian hurriedly stayed: "Can't you accompany me for a while?" ”
"With such an enemy who knows everything and refuses to help him in everything, don't you feel like a gangrene on your back, and you don't want to get rid of it?" Liu Bei's words talked about the other party's sore spots, and Princess Wannian no longer spoke out to persuade her.
Liu Bei suddenly said, "No matter what you are going to do now, don't ignore Cao Cao." In Liu Bei's eyes, Cao Cao is still the most powerful hero in the Three Kingdoms era, and there is no one.
Seeing Liu Bei being escorted back to the prison by the guards, Princess Wannian fell into deep thought. She understood that Cao Cao was quite resourceful, but she didn't believe that Cao Cao had this strength.
Cai Wenji, who had been outside the door for a long time, avoided Liu Bei and entered the door from a deviant path. Because she didn't know what to say to Liu Bei, she didn't want the other party to know that she had cheated on him, so as to preserve this innocent friendship.
After entering the house, Cai Wenji said, "Lord, the news has spread. ”
"Always keep an eye on the movements on Luoyang's side. Then he was instructed to go down and strengthen his vigilance. Princess Wannian went back to bed sleepily, and when she saw that Cai Wenji had no intention of leaving, she asked, "Is there anything else?" ”
"My lord. The slave and maid dared to say a word. ”
"Say it." Princess Wannian seemed to have guessed the contents.
"Those ministers are all people who guard Chen, what if Luoyang doesn't support the lord?"
"I'm not taking the throne, and it's not bad for them, it's good. No longer have to be controlled by the Ten Permanent Servants and He Jin, they will be very excited. ”
"But are they willing to be at the mercy of a woman?"
The princess of Wannian is silent, this is a big problem. In this male-dominated society, will these men, big and small, be sincere and obedient?
Cai Wenji said again: "Among the ten permanent servants, there are still eight people including Zhao Zhong in the palace, will they make a mess after they get the news?" ”
"Don't worry about this, the eight of them are sincere and obedient, and they don't dare to be as bold as Jian Shuo Zhang Rang."
Cai Wenji said again: "The slave wants to prepare a retreat in advance. ”
Princess Wannian asked rhetorically: "Whether Luoyang Tong agrees or not, he will kill He Jinjianshuo." It's just that if Luoyang doesn't agree, we can only take it as a way to eliminate harm for the country, and then secretly withdraw from the political arena and find a quiet place to live in seclusion. ”
"I'm afraid it's not that simple." Cai Wenji sighed. From ancient times to the present, no politician can live in seclusion after failing to seek government. is as strong as Lu Buwei, but he still has to be ruined, and the whole clan is on the streets, how can he still live a secluded life.
Princess Wannian didn't speak, and went straight to undress and lie on the couch to rest. Despite closing your eyes, despite being tired, you still can't fall asleep easily. If Liu Bei had agreed to be emperor, all this would have improved. But Liu Bei refused. She couldn't understand what reason she could refuse such a big temptation. Isn't it worth the risk of such a big temptation? Maybe she was tired and mentally exhausted, so she didn't think of that layer.
For Liu Bei, the Han court was hopeless. In order to maintain the rule of the Han court, the only way to do this is to bring forth the new and build another court. To improve on the basis of the original is tantamount to self-destruction.
"Anything else?" Princess Wannian opened her eyes and suddenly found that Cai Wenji had not left.
"He wants to see you." Cai Wenji said.
"Just say I'm tired, see you in the evening." Princess Wannian is not angry.
"He said there was something important."
Princess Wannian impatiently ordered, "Let him in." ”
After Cai Wenji stepped back, a scholarly man walked in. "Princess."
"Mr. Fu said something important?" Princess Wannian asked.
"Yes." After answering, he stopped talking, and knelt in the lobby to taste wine.
"What exactly?" Princess Wannian asked.
Frustratedly: "I just want to chat with the princess and relieve the princess's fatigue." ”
Princess Wannian knew the other party's thoughts, if she hadn't been frustrated and admired by herself, she wouldn't have told herself all the secrets of He Jin, let alone helped herself perfect this plan, and finally succeeded. At this moment, Princess Wannian suddenly had a question, so she said: "You strongly recommended Liu Bei to be our pawn, why did you choose him?" ”
Fu Zhu didn't know that Liu Bei was summoned, so he didn't regard the other party as his rival. "Liu Bei seems to be friendly on the surface, attaches great importance to love and righteousness, but he is really deep and profound, and he can be said to be the most capable of all the descendants of Gaozu men. If we don't eradicate it as soon as possible, many disasters will surely arise in the future. ”
"Now that Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty is seriously ill, Xianbei in the north is ready to move, and the coast of the East China Sea is often attacked and harassed by the Japanese invaders, and the territories in the west and south are not peaceful. The two little princes are too young, but the court desperately needs an excellent heir to calm the situation of internal and external troubles. For those royal relatives and ministers, the most important thing is to maintain the benefits obtained, as long as they are descendants of Gaozu, it does not matter whether they are the current emperor's bloodline or not. If they support Liu Bei to the throne together, the world will definitely be decided. The princess didn't have a chance. ”
"Do you think Liu Bei will be a good emperor?" Wannian Gongnian is a little proud, but also a little lost.
"Every outstanding emperor is kind on the outside but ruthless on the inside. Benevolence guides the subjects to goodness on the one hand, and punishes treachery on the other hand, which can be said to be external Confucianism and internal law. He met Liu Bei a total of three times, but when they met for the first and second time, they found that he was ambitious. When we met a few days ago, I thought he was unremarkable. ”
"Is that because you're mistaken, or is there something else?"
"For another reason, of course. What was once a turbulent river is now as calm as a stream, hiding the turbulent waters underwater, which shows his growth. After only more than half a month, there has been such growth, which shows what a terrible person Liu Bei is. It is a godsend to take advantage of this opportunity to get rid of it now. "Frustrated with excitement.
"Liu Bei once saved you, and your family is in the White River Gorge, he died, what should your family do?"
"There must be sacrifices to do big things, if it weren't for the small bet on the family, Liu Bei would not believe it, and he would not easily get out of the valley. If you can serve the princess, you are willing to sacrifice everything for the princess in the next clan. ”
The eyes of the princess of Wannian were wide when she listened. The scheme is vicious and unkind; It is unrighteous to abandon a wife and children; betraying He Jin is really disloyal; Ignoring the lives of his parents is really unfilial. This kind of unkind, unrighteous, disloyal and unfilial people are still talking and talking about the river here, which is really the anger of people and gods. He is worthy of being a great talent in ancient and modern times, but such a talent is really a blessing for the country and a misfortune for his relatives.
"Your mind is understood, this princess understands. One more thing, do you think Cao Cao will interfere with our plans? ”
"Cao Cao is just a school captain, and his troops are only 2,000, so he can't become an atmospheric marquis."
"Stand down. Princess Ben is tired, and she will talk to her husband in the evening. ”
Frustrated, he hurriedly said: "As a princess's staff, I can't afford the word Mr., just call the word below." ”
"This princess respects her husband, how can she call the word so good. Princess Ben is very grateful for her husband's plan, and please worry a lot about it in the future. ”
"Under the princess, thank you for your praise." Frustrated, he was overjoyed and bowed back.
After two days of nervous waiting, news finally came from Luoyang. The political side was headed by Situ Yuan Kui, the military was headed by Cao Cao, the captain of the military academy, and the royal family was headed by Liu Yu, and issued a holy decree in the name of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, ordering Princess Wannian to be the regent and oversee the military and political affairs of the whole country. Princess Wannian almost collapsed after receiving the holy decree. For her, this meant that Luoyang gave in to herself in a weak manner, and it also meant that He Jian and the two parties would be immediately executed, including Liu Bei.
