Chapter 430: Please Abdicate Your Majesty!
Liangdu, Miyagi.
Emperor Xue Rui of Liang slowly walked in the imperial garden wearing a black imperial robe, and the gorgeous and noble dark gold ornaments on the imperial robe were a symbol of his noble status.
A step or two behind him, followed by Hu Quan, the great eunuch who flew up to the branch and stood at the top of the power of the beam.
More than ten steps away, there are the rest of the chamberlain.
A few steps further afield, there are accompanying escorts.
The distance from the center of power is often a sign of the size of the power, and the same applies here.
"Your Majesty, when King Dingxi has settled the matter this time, it is time for you to put the matter on the agenda, right?"
In Emperor Liang's mind, Yelu Caiqi's face appeared, and he suddenly felt that this spring day seemed to be a little hot.
Immediately pressed down and smiled faintly, "The matter is still inconclusive, and it is a little too early to talk about this." ”
"Not early, not early!" Hu Quan, who has followed Xue Rui for so many years, has already understood his master's thoughts, and said with a smile: "When Your Majesty was still in the palace, he was worried about state affairs, and he did not marry the crown princess, which shows that his character is right. ”
With the "steps", Emperor Liang didn't hold it anymore, walked down, smiled and nodded, "There is some truth in this statement, this is not for me alone, but for the sake of the Great Liang Jiangshan and the ancestral society, and it is indeed not easy to delay any longer." ”
He walked forward with his hands in his hands, passing through the thousands of flowers, just like he had wandered among the warblers and swallows in the past years, "This time the king of Dingxi has made a great contribution, and I married his granddaughter, which can be regarded as a real reward for him, and I can't chill the hearts of the heroes!" ”
"Your Majesty is wise!"
Emperor Liang shook his head disapprovingly, and walked forward slowly, looking south, "I don't know how the talk is going outside the city." ”
This kind of thing is not something that Hu Quancan interject, he didn't take the initiative to answer the call, and followed with low eyebrows.
As soon as he spoke, a sound of footsteps sounded, and a palace city guard walked quickly, "Your Majesty, the city gate is urgent, and the seven family heads have returned to the city together." ”
Emperor Liang was stunned for a moment, and then his heart moved, "You mean, they all went back to the city together?" ”
The guard nodded, "Yes, King Pingbei is also in the team. ”
Emperor Liang was instantly overjoyed, and the fact that the King of Pingbei was willing to enter the city meant that they must have reached an agreement.
Now that an agreement has been reached, this hidden concern can be regarded as a solution.
I thought that these people would fight for a long time, but I didn't expect to come back so soon!
The king of Dingxi is really powerful, and he deserves to be recognized as a capable minister, and this efficiency is really amazing.
When he came back, he got everything done in three strokes and five divided by two, and it seems that I am dispensable as the emperor, hehe.
What should I reward him?
With these careful thoughts, he slowly came to the main hall of the court.
After a short time, he saw seven of the top magnates of the entire Great Liang, escorted by a thousand Kyoto guards, walking towards the main hall.
Emperor Xue Rui of Liang saw that Xue Fenghua, the great sect leader, was walking in front with a calm expression, and the last worry in his heart was gone.
Watching them enter the hall and stand still, he smiled and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, this time you will discuss face-to-face, you must have something to gain?" ”
Looking at him as if he didn't know what was about to happen, Xue Fenghua sighed secretly in his heart.
Speaking of which, this majesty is not too bad, but there is no way, in the survival philosophy of the family, under the general trend, no one can not be sacrificed.
He also doesn't want to embarrass his junior too much, and just wants to end the process as soon as possible.
So, he stroked his chest and saluted, "If you return to Your Majesty, the seven of us have indeed reached a conclusion on the current situation." ”
Emperor Liang raised his eyebrows, "How to decide, can there be an order?" ”
Xue Fenghua looked up at him, and in that gaze, it seemed to be compassion and apology, and finally turned to a decision.
"We have only one thing to say."
He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Please abdicate Your Majesty!" ”
Emperor Liang Xue Rui originally only frowned slightly, but when he heard this at this moment, his face immediately changed suddenly, and he slapped the table, "Xue Fenghua!" Do you know what you're talking about! ”
The supreme position, the Son of Heaven is angry, and millions of corpses can be ambushed.
But Xue Fenghua's expression remained calm and unchanged, and he said slowly: "Your Majesty's murder of the monarch and father is not in line with the law of the country, but also against humanity, please abdicate Your Majesty, and use the dynasty to calm the hearts of the people in the world!" ”
Xue Rui couldn't care about the shock at the moment, and his heart was surging with endless anger, but before he could attack, the other six family heads standing behind Xue Fenghua also came out in unison, and said loudly: "Please abdicate Your Majesty, and use the righteous dynasty to calm the hearts of the people in the world!" ”
In the already quiet hall, the falling needles could be heard at this moment, as if only the deep shouts of the seven family heads were echoing for a long time.
A group of chamberlains and guards were dumbfounded, and the swallowing sound rolling in their throats was clearly audible.
What's going on?
Please abdicate Your Majesty?
Together, you seven surnames discussed this?
"It's the other way around! It's the other way around! You're doing the opposite! ”
Xue Rui roared angrily, "Someone! Take down these rebels and thieves for me! ”
Neat and hurried footsteps sounded outside the temple gate, but when they rushed to the temple gate, no one dared to move.
Standing in front of them was the head of the family surnamed Da Liang, and most of them were inextricably linked to these seven people and the family behind them.
Any one of the seven family heads is at a disadvantage in the face of imperial power.
But when these seven surnames work together, what is the Great Liang Emperor!
It's not that they can't arrange this matter more securely, such as leading troops to force the palace directly, but for the sake of the records of the history books and the reputation of future generations, they chose this path.
When they turned their heads and looked at these armorers calmly, it was as if they had drawn an impassable line in front of them with their eyes, and no one stepped forward, and no one even dared to move.
"Your Majesty, have you seen that? This is what people all over the world want! Your Majesty's position is not correct and unpopular, abdicate! ”
Xue Fenghua turned to look at Xue Rui, slowly spoke, and put on a cloak of shame for their decision with people's hearts and righteousness.
"Presumptuous!" At this time, Hu Quan, the great eunuch beside Emperor Liang, tried to fight to the death, and shouted angrily: "Commit rebellion and disobey the imperial power!" What are you still doing in a daze! Take down these rebels and thieves quickly! Your Majesty will be rewarded at that time! ”
Yelushi, the king of Dingxi, said lightly: "The barking of the defeated dog is annoying, so take it!" ”
A few loyal soldiers who had been arranged a long time ago rushed out quickly, rushed directly to the throne, and dragged Hu Quan down.
"What are you doing! You are rebelling! We're going to get you."
The voice stopped abruptly, and Hu Quan, who was dragged away like a dead dog, looked down at the knife on his chest in disbelief, and before he even had time to scream, he fell to the ground and became a real dead dog.
The big knife was pulled out, and a wisp of blood dripped to the ground along the cold light of the blade, but it was like a torrential rain on Emperor Liang's heart.
When he watched his personal cronies, the great eunuch, be killed as he said so, he finally understood that there was no room for relaxation in this matter.
Either he retreats, or the seven surnames die!
But will the seven surnames die?
His gaze swept over the soldiers who should have been desperately loyal to him at the moment but remained silent, and finally landed on his hardcore descendants Yuwenyun and Murong Hammer.
But the two men who had risked their lives to help him ascend to the throne both lowered their heads with a bit of shame at this moment, avoiding his gaze.
He looked at Yelushi, the king of Dingxi, and saw his calm face and Gujing's unwavering eyes, and understood many things in his heart.
Where there is loyalty, where there are loyal ministers, where there are pillars of the country, where there is no unparalleled righteousness, under all kinds of clothes, there are the same dirty bodies, and the same ugly souls are hidden in the body!
There was no anger in his heart at the moment, only cold hatred.
"You're really good at pretending! Killing the king and killing the father, the position is not right, what an excuse! When the first emperor was here, why didn't you say that he was not in the right position? One by one, they were like dogs in front of the first emperor, and now they are pretending to be in front of me? ”
"You people, some of you followed me to kill the king and kill my father, some of you came to congratulate me after I ascended the throne, some of you are offering your daughter and pretending to be loyal in tears, even if I am wrong, you are more disgusting than anyone else!"
He laughed maniacally and said, "If I don't retreat, how are you going to go?" Could it be that you are the messengers of justice when you kill the king? ”
Xue Fenghua sighed lightly, "Your Majesty, the matter has come to this point, it's all decent, right?" ”
Decent?
I endured humiliation and caution, and finally came to the present, when my long-cherished wish was fulfilled, you want to deprive me of everything, and I want to be decent?
How can you be so, brazen!
"I'll fuck you decent!"
He opened his mouth indignantly, venting his anger in foul language.
The seven people present all looked at him calmly, and then Xue Rui heard a sound of footsteps.
The first emperor and queen, now the queen mother, slowly walked into the main hall.
The moment he saw the other party, Xue Rui's heart instantly fell to the bottom.
The Queen Mother looked at this own son with pity and helplessness, although because of the murder of his father, the two have been strangers recently, but after all, they are their own flesh and blood, who can really be ruthless with that heart.
The heavenly family is ruthless, she had planned to forgive this rebel, but who expected to encounter such a thing again.
"Child, there is nothing good about this throne, let's live a life of wealth and peace."
Xue Rui didn't respond, and sat down on the dragon chair, his eyes empty and numb.
Yelushi took an edict stamped with the queen mother's seal from the hands of his subordinates who came with the queen mother, and read it.
After counting more than 120 charges against Xue Rui in one go, he looked at Xue Rui, who was deposed as the king of Anding, "King Anding, take the will of the Queen Mother!" ”
Xue Rui sat on the dragon chair, still sitting with empty eyes and a numb expression.
Yelushi glanced at the guards on the side, and the guards mustered up the courage to step forward and take Xue Rui away from the dragon chair.
Watching her son being taken away, the Queen Mother looked at the head of the family with the seventh surname, "Ladies and gentlemen, what I said before"
Yelushi opened his mouth and said: "Please rest assured that the queen mother will keep his promise and will not infringe on the life of the king of stability." At the same time, King Jing's biological mother died early, and Niangniang, as the first emperor's main palace, is still the queen mother. ”
When the Queen Mother heard this, her heart was a little settled, "All the things in the court, a harem woman in the mourning family doesn't understand, and you have to work for you." ”
The seven of them returned the salute in unison.
After the Queen Mother left, Xue Rui was also taken to the mansion that had been placed in advance for temporary house arrest, and the seven of them looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief.
Although they are fully confident in the appeal and prestige of their seven people, after all, it involves the change of the throne, and it is still a bit thrilling and nervous to use this method.
"Without further ado, let's quickly meet King Lijing!"
An hour later, the magnates and commoners of Shangjing City, who had been cheering for the resolution of the crisis because they saw King Pingbei enter the city, were shocked by a shocking news.
The seven family heads entered the palace together, and the queen mother issued a decree, counting more than 120 crimes of Emperor Liang, and then abolished the emperor as the king of stability, and welcomed King Jing as the emperor.
"This majesty was . . . Scrapped? ”
"Didn't you say that the seven surnames discussed some conflicts of interest? Why did the discussion of several shopkeepers stop the proprietor? ”
"You don't understand this, speaking of our big beam, the seven surnames are the owners, and Your Majesty is just a shopkeeper, and because Your Majesty himself is also one of the seven surnames, and the seven surnames are not in harmony, so Your Majesty and the Xue family are the only family, and now it seems that there is something else, so that the seven surnames have compromised, and even the Xue family has agreed, this is really unusual!"
"Don't care why he is, I just think that this Your Majesty, oh no, King Anding is too interesting, he has reigned for more than a month, and there are more than 100 crimes, and he is really a god!"
"Hey, the power struggle failed, so don't let others say what kind of crime, do you really believe it?"
In the streets and alleys, rumors continued for a while.
In the palace of Dingxi, Yelud naturally heard the news and breathed a long sigh of relief.
While I have infinite admiration for my father, I am also full of excitement for the future.
Under such circumstances, he finally no longer has to hide his light and can show his talent freely.
After being proud for a while, he suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly called the steward, "Go and tell the eldest lady that Your Majesty has been. Forget it, I'll go myself! ”
He walked through the corridors and courtyards to the courtyard where his precious daughter, Jeruzech, was temporarily staying.
"Baby, open the door, I'm Daddy!"
"Hello? Open the door! ”
"Huh?"
Jerod's face changed, and he kicked open the door and rushed in.
only to find that the yard was empty.
He was only stunned for a moment, then calmed down, carefully examined the situation in the house, and after making sure that Jerichic had not been forcibly taken away, he muttered speechlessly, "This kid doesn't know how to be patient!" ”
He immediately called the henchmen of the clan in the house, "Caiqi is gone, you immediately take a few teams of people, remember if it is a henchman of the family, and then carefully go to the city to search for her whereabouts, remember not to make a noise." Now that the situation of my Yelu family is very good, if she falls into the hands of others, I am afraid that this situation will be repeated again, so be careful, and once you find it, bring it back immediately. ”
Looking at the henchman who had taken the order, Yerod rubbed his eyebrows.
Things in this world are really so unreasonable, after being busy for a while, there is always a next one, and there is no one who can rest well.
When Jerod sent people to secretly search for the runaway Jerod in the city, the sun slowly moved westward, and the day that was destined to be recorded in the history books finally came to an end.
Xue Yi stood at the door of the main hall of the palace, wearing a black imperial robe decorated with dark gold patterns, as the former King Jing and the current Emperor Liang, his heart was still in a trance and disbelief.
He is just an idle prince who only likes to read and is not keen on power, how did he become an emperor?
But King Dingxi told him that the head of the family with the seven surnames had decided, and he had to be the master of the beam.
He even thought, could this be the compensation given by God because of the evil qi on the white cloud side in the Southern Dynasty?
No, no, although the man was disgusting, he didn't lose that much merit.
It's just that the helpless and even more descendant self is probably the life of a puppet, right?
said he didn't understand, but in fact, he still understood.
But what if you understand?
Just like he was deceived by King Dingxi's words at the beginning, will he be able to resist in the future?
Thinking of this, he sighed faintly.
The sigh was carried away by the spring breeze, swirled at the corner of the eaves of the house, blew into a large mansion in the west of the city, swept over the heads of the guards, and finally brushed on the face of a man, and let out a cold snort.
Xue Rui sat in the room, his messy beard and hair, showing a little down.
The shoulders and eyebrows droop together, and together with the curved spine, the posture of the loser is revealed.
But deep down, he didn't completely admit defeat.
Don't you just rely on the might of the army, and I don't have no back-ups!
Uncle Wang of Zhennan has gone to Lieyang Pass to take over the 60,000 snow dragon horses, as long as he leads the troops to the king, the 60,000 elites are outside, and the loyal ministers and righteous men are included, it may not be able to subvert the overall situation!
He was freed from prison by my own hands and restored to the king's trust, and he must be loyal to me. Right?
He looked beyond the high walls and the heavy guards, and hesitantly headed south with his ambition and hope.
——
In the south, where Xue Rui, the abolished emperor of the Northern Liang Dynasty, was looking at from afar, the scorching sun was closed, and a handover had just been completed this afternoon.
King Zhennan, who also carried the imperial power of the Xue family and dreamed of ballast for the Great Liang Dynasty, did not know everything that happened in Shangjing City, let alone Xue Rui's hopes for him.
But at this moment, even if he knew, he probably didn't have the heart to care about those things.
He just looked at the right hand of his sons and daughters who only had four fingers left, angry and helpless.
He came with endless expectations, these 60,000 elites are his capital, and they are also his right to speak in the court.
Without these lineages, he, the king of Zhennan, would be like a loyal king who had been deprived of military power, leaving only face and no lining.
Therefore, when he delivered all the goods on the agreement as he wished, and successfully met the people he was familiar with, his heart instantly became hot.
But the broken thumbs, like his broken ambitions, have no chance of piecing them back.
50,000 snow dragon riders, 10,000 tiger and leopard riders, the most elite core members of the Xue family are left, and now they are just like him, only face is left, and there is no lining.
On the wall of Lieyang Pass, Jin Jiancheng and Xia Yunfei, who had just arrived at Lieyang Pass, stood side by side, and said with a smile: "You said he wouldn't be in trouble, right?" ”
Xia Yunfei said calmly: "He may be outburst, but he can't make trouble anymore." ”
Jin Jiancheng turned his head to look at him, and was surprised, "After following Jianning Hou for so long, his mouth has become neat!" ”
Xia Yunfei smiled innocently, did not refute, and silently watched the king of Zhennan slowly return north with the team after wandering for a long time.
The 60,000 soldiers are gone, but this is also 60,000 strong, and they can't bow and shoot horses, but they can still do things.
This evil breath can only knock out teeth and swallow blood, so that it can be redoubled in the future.
When the delivery was completed, the Great Xia army also began to officially deploy and build the Lieyang Pass according to the territory of Great Xia, rather than the way it was temporarily managed at the beginning.
Xia Yunfei and Jin Jiancheng took Wudangjun and began to work in the city to do a series of things.
Conduct a register screening and screening of the Beiliang people who stay in the Guannai;
The city defense was renovated to prevent people who were familiar with the city defense here in Beiliang from secretly causing damage;
As well as the selection of garrison candidates, the assignment of the three levels of rotation defense, and so on, just to arrange these things clearly, it will already be three days later.
The situation in Beiliang has already been reported, even Jin Jiancheng and Xia Yunfei, who know part of the inside story, can't help but sigh that Xia Jingyun is so powerful, and he really succeeded in taking the most critical step!
Shocked and inexplicable, they also happily thought about those dreams of no war in the north from now on, leading the army to expand the territory, and pointing to the stars and the sea.
Then, the sudden arrival of a person from the north made these two reckless men who fought without blinking an eye, and instantly felt two big heads. (End of chapter)
