Chapter 68: The Last Day
Qin Chongnian is not smart, but he is not a 100% fool, he is a person who can think.
Zhou Dewei smiled: "Lord Wang, you are so guarded against the lower officials, how can we cooperate?" Do you have a more suitable partner than Xiaguan now? ”
This is the key point, without Zhou Dewei's help, it is difficult for him to succeed.
It is almost impossible for the 230,000 soldiers and horses outside the city to enter the city, there are tall and strong cities, and there are hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses of the rest of the vassal kings, once the city is attacked, those soldiers of the vassal kings will not stand idly by.
At most, you can only mix in a group of people, and a few people.
Zhou Dewei: "Lord Wang, make up your mind, I will not betray you." If...... If you still have anything to worry about, you can arrange a way out for yourself in case of accidents. Your soldiers and horses are close to the river, and the subordinate can order people to prepare enough boats there, and if the signs are wrong, the prince can withdraw and leave. ”
The ships were all of the imperial court, prepared for hundreds of thousands of troops, and had been anchored for many years and had not been used.
It is not difficult for these ships to carry more than 200,000 people.
Qin Chongnian was still very worried, he walked around the house, pondering Zhou Dewei repeatedly, maybe this was the best way, even if he couldn't become the emperor, he could escape.
However, he now has one last request.
"This king wants to see Qin Yue's head before the incident."
As soon as Qin Yue died, Zhou Dewei could only support him, but he knew where Zhou Dewei would treat him as a backing at all.
"What's wrong?"
"Lord, this request, the minister can only say to do it as much as possible. The Zongren Mansion is still in the hands of Qin Chuan, and the thousands of men and horses in the military department are also restrained, they are being monitored, and there is no one available to the ministers, how can they enter the Zongren Mansion to kill people? ”
"You don't fool this king, enter the Zongren Mansion to kill people, what soldiers and horses do you need, you are a person with hands and eyes in the capital, you can do things by finding someone to go in, this king doesn't believe it, you don't even have a few dead soldiers with high martial arts in your hands."
"Lord Mingjian, if the minister is so powerful, how can he be forced to leave the house, and even the Prime Minister's Mansion will be burned."
After thinking for a moment, Qin Chongnian's face improved: "Okay, don't use suspicious people, don't doubt people, this king will give you 2,000 people." ”
Then, Zhou Dewei told Qin Chongnian his plan completely.
As soon as he left, Qin Chongnian's son came into the house.
"Father, Zhou Dewei is unreliable, is it appropriate for you to hand over your life to him?"
"Of course, my father knows what he is, but the two thousand people I gave him are loyal to our family, and once Zhou Dewei has bad intentions, I will kill him directly."
As a son's heart, he was worried: "Father, killing him is not the goal, you have no turning back now, only when you become an emperor can you live." The sons of those vassal kings won't spare you, in fact, ......"
"What the hell are you trying to say?"
"Father, Zhou Dewei has always supported Qin Yue, and he suddenly said that he wanted to support you, do you believe his nonsense? The son thinks that you shouldn't go outside the city to kill Qin Chuan, and this matter is up to the son. Stay and mingle in the city, and command the two thousand. ”
The son is smarter than Lao Tzu, which touched Qin Chongnian's nerves.
He sat down slowly and thought about it: "My son, you're right, for my father, I can't be led by the nose by Zhou Dewei, a bastard. But 2,000 people are afraid that it is not enough, at least 5,000 people. ”
It is actually quite difficult to get the soldiers and horses from outside into the city, so you can only take one step and watch one step.
……
These two days have been unusually long.
Qin Chuan only slept for two hours a day, thinking about countermeasures repeatedly.
In his own plan, whether there are still loopholes, and Zhou Dewei will not be surprised.
Gao Liuyue sent snacks and hot soup: "Your Highness, you haven't eaten all day, let's eat." ”
Qin Chuan's face was pale with hunger, and his lips were dry, but he couldn't eat it, because tomorrow was the most dangerous time, and he was anxious.
"You can eat, you can't eat alone."
"No matter what, you can't go hungry, haven't you already arranged it with Lord Liu?"
Qin Chuan looked at her and smiled lightly: "There is no foolproof strategy, as long as Lone goes out of the city, there will be danger, Zhou Dewei wants to kill Lone, King Xian wants to kill Lone, what about the others?" Do you know how many people are staring at the throne now? ”
Gao Liuyue thought that hundreds of thousands of troops outside the city ...... The sons and nephews of those vassal kings, each surnamed Qin, were all qualified to be emperors in a broad sense, as long as they could remove obstacles, even the people of the clan were also qualified.
And Qin Chuan went out of the city to help the first emperor, which gave these people endless opportunities.
Gao Liuyue: "Your Highness, if you want to be foolproof, it's not that there is no way, if you don't leave the capital, find a stand-in......"
Qin Chuan thought about this, but if he didn't go out of the city, he would be rebellious, disobedient and unfilial, and he would also be criticized.
"Your Highness, now is the moment of life and death, and it is important to save your life. You might as well learn from Zhou Dewei, stay in the capital, and hide first. ”
Qin Chuan frowned slightly: "No, doesn't this mean telling others that Lone is a timid person?" There are some strategies that can be used, but this is absolutely impossible, and the majesty of the emperor cannot be lost. ”
"It's all hanging by a thread, what more prestige do you need?"
In the history of the Qin family, each generation of new emperors had to support the spirit of the first emperor and personally send the first emperor to be buried, this rule has been one of the criteria for positioning the new emperor, otherwise Qin Chuan still needs to worry so much.
He closed his eyes: "From the city to the imperial tomb, there are two hours of road, and it is also two hours to return, what do you think is the safest place, and it will definitely not be spied on." ”
At this point, he had already thought of a plan.
Gao Liuyue couldn't think of it: "Your Highness, as long as you go out of the city, you will definitely have to worry about your life." ”
"No, there is a place - the coffin of my father."
Hearing this, Gao Liuyue was in awe, she really didn't expect to hide in the coffin, no matter how bold the soldiers outside the city were, they didn't dare to harass the undead of the first emperor, and no one would believe that such a pampered person as the prince would hide in the coffin.
However, she was still scared.
"Okay, you go and rest first, and in three hours, it will be dawn." The guard of honor out of the city, you go and prepare...... Thinking about it again, there was something missing. ”
Gao Liuyue got up and walked away, she looked back at Qin Chuan, who was sitting quietly, and looked at the back of this once lazy prince.
In an instant, she had seen the grandeur of the emperor, this man's body was pressed by countless mountains, which could crush people to death, but he was still calm on the surface.
"Qin Chuan, are all your past looks fake?"
