After a few more days, King Yan's army had all withdrawn, and the originally bustling ghost market became an inaccessible place. At this time, the fog that originally shrouded the ghost market had disappeared, and only a mass grave stood here. The saying that circulated in the mouths of the people was even more mysterious, saying that the original stalls in the fog were all undead spirits, because of the heavy demonic spirit, they only dared to haunt at night, otherwise how could this ghost market be closed as soon as the sun appeared. A while ago, it was the powerful Wudang Mountain Palm Sect True Person who came here to subdue the spirits, and the fog that lingered here dissipated, and it was only here that it could be restored to its original state.

People of insight naturally think that this is nonsense, the spirit is too bizarre, and some interested people investigated, and finally found that the source of the news is several families who have made a living from the ghost market for generations.

At this time, the eye-catching fog hijab in the ghost market has been revealed, and it has lost its mystery, and naturally it has also lost its bargaining chips to attract visitors from all over the world. The merchants' sense of smell is so keen, and many of the merchants who come here have terminated their contracts with the shop owners of the ghost market Tianbao Street. It turns out that the family that relied on the ghost market to eat lost this cash cow, and they were unwilling to make a fool of themselves and wanted to win people's eyes and ears, but everyone understands that this method has deceived ordinary people, but it can't fool smart people like us.

However, the truth of the truth can not be covered up in a few words, the places of the ghost market are all new graves, and the shouts of killing a few days ago cannot be faked, and there was clearly a bloody fight here. In fact, there are not many people who really understand, and most of the people who live nearby have moved to other places, and the land price here has also fallen again and again. Even the big soldiers who came to live here at a cheap price in the back also hung gourds, Zhong Kui statues, peach wood swords and other things in front of their own doors, and they no longer went out after nightfall.

It wasn't until a few years later that a large number of refugees fled to the land of Tianjin to find a way to survive, and with the gradual increase in refugees, food and clothing became a problem. Some people started the idea of refugees, walking the streets and alleys to collect some old things and sell them to refugees, and some people took the things they didn't use here to sell, and over time, this ghost market became prosperous again. Of course, that's all for later, so let's leave it alone for now.

One by one, the news was transmitted back to Jinling along the intelligence network of the Jinyi Guard, and then the Jinyi Guard Commander screened it and submitted it to the Emperor's Imperial Review. This person's surname is Lu, and his mother is the prince's nurse, so he naturally hooked up with the prince who was still in the palace at that time. However, this person is very measured, never bullying others, and has always regarded himself as the prince's domestic slave. The prince repeatedly reprimanded him and demanded that he be commensurate with his brother, but he insisted on doing so.

Later, when the kings seized the heir, the turmoil became worse, and the prince was designed to be besieged, and it was also this Lu commander who tried his best to rescue the prince, and he was injured in more than ten places, and the blood did not stop. It's just that his legs were too badly injured and his knees were shattered, but he couldn't restore them to his original state. After recuperation, although Commander Lu resumed walking with great perseverance, his walking posture was very strange.

After the crown prince inherited the throne, this person became a vicious dog beside the emperor, and wantonly purged the power of other kings in the court, forcing the kings to return to their fiefdoms, and for a time they had no two powers. For such powerful ministers, literati scholars will naturally not be stingy with praise, among which the reputation of "Hebu Lu Hades" is the most well-known.

In order to show his favor to King Lu Yan, the emperor gave him a gold medal to enter and leave the palace, so it is not a strange thing that King Lu Yan came to the imperial study to see him.

As soon as King Lu Yan entered the imperial study, an attendant brought a chair for him and took it from his hand. Commander Lu has won the trust of His Majesty, that is, the palace servant, and he is willing to sell it well, and his family has been put in the prison of Beizhen Fusi, and he is good to ask for a favor with Commander Lu.

"Jinyi Weidu commanded Lu Yan to see Your Majesty, the prince, the minister has an old disease in his legs, and he failed to pay the full courtesy, and I hope that His Majesty and the prince will forgive me. I hereby present to Your Majesty the latest report on the front line of the ghost market. King Lu Yan did not sit down directly, but first saluted respectfully, even if he could not bow to worship, King Lu Yan also bowed deeply to show respect for the imperial power.

"Brother Yan is here, no need to be polite, hurry up and sit down, so I and your nephew, the set in the court doesn't have to be brought here. ”

King Lu Yan thanked the emperor for his favor and sat down gently, only half of his butt sat on the chair.

After the emperor saw the fold presented by Lu Yan, he handed the fold to the prince, and the prince watched the whole process of this plan, in the final analysis, His Majesty the emperor still had the mind of his godson. Seeing that the crown prince gradually frowned, the emperor asked, "Qi'er, do you have any questions about this information?" Your Uncle Lu is here, just ask." ”

The prince glanced at Lu Yan, "I don't have any questions about the intelligence, Uncle Lu is hard, Qi'er just doesn't understand, why don't you take the opportunity to cut off Uncle Yan's wings, but instead generously give the money bag of the ghost market to you?"

"The prince's words are serious, and they are all matters within the minister's responsibility. ”

The emperor pretended to be displeased, "You have a lot of rules in life, and your nephew says that you are hard, so you have to accept it, and at this time, you still have to abide by the way of a monarch and a minister." ”

Lu Yan smiled and arched his hand towards the emperor to confess his guilt.

"Brother Yan said a few words, and also solved your nephew's doubts. ”

"I respectfully follow Your Majesty's orders, Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, according to the minister's guess, Your Majesty's move is to stir up conflicts among the kings. Cutting down the feudal domain is already an established strategy, but if the means are too drastic, causing the fear of the vassal kings, and joining forces against the imperial court, they will not be able to do so, so they can only divide and plan.

This ghost market is an opportunity, the husband is not guilty, the ghost market was originally owned by the king of Zhao, and now the foundation of the king of Zhao is obtained by the king of Yan, if His Majesty does not make a statement, you can give the kings a hint, as long as you can win the foundation of other vassal kings, the court is happy to see it. The ghost market is a piece of fatty meat, and it is not only the Yan Wang family who wants to eat it in the mouth. ”

"So the father and emperor intercepted and killed the prince of Zhao and seized the treasure in order to blame Uncle Yan Wang, so as to push King Zhao from the side of the vassal king to the court camp?"

"The prince is smart and has the style of His Majesty. ”

"Say a few words, but I still want to make some sycophants, Qi'er is still young, less beautiful words, more criticism. Qi'er, associate with your Uncle Lu, learn more planning methods, but you can't learn those bad habits of flattery. ”

The prince said yes, and Lu Yan laughed a little embarrassed on the side.

"The dispatch of the Liaodong Iron Cavalry is to warn Uncle Yan that if he makes any more changes, he will fight Liaodong and send him to a dead end?"

"No, no, no, it is not easy to build the Liaodong defense line, and we must not give up lightly, I know about this matter, and King Yan also knows. As a monarch, if you don't do it slowly, if you don't plan properly, you will provoke the vassal king to raise troops, and then it will damage the national strength of my Han Dynasty. And when the time comes, I will inevitably have a bad reputation for killing my brothers, what a character Taizong is, a hero, but it has always been difficult to get rid of the stain of killing my brother and persecuting my father. ”

Your Majesty is good everywhere, but he cherishes his feathers too much, and he has done great things since ancient times, which one is not a ruthless person, King Lu Yan thought.

"The dispatch of the Liaodong Iron Cavalry is just a warning to Liaodong, although Liaodong is far away, it is also under the control of the king. Sun Shuai is good that there is someone who understands and can control the situation, if Sun Shuai dies, his righteous son will inevitably divide the frontier. ”

"So the father already has a backhand, let Qi'er guess, but no matter how powerful the force is, as long as there is internal strife, there will naturally be an opportunity, and then we will use Sun Shuai's majesty to mix a handful of sand. Uncle Yan Wang's side, I'm afraid there is also the same arrangement. ”

The emperor showed a disgusting look of having a son and everything, "Although this statement is not true, it is also correct in several places, Qi'er has indeed grown." It's just Qi'er, you must know that Sun Shuai has been ordered to guard Liaodong since the time of the first emperor, and after so many years, it is not true to say that he has no dissenting intentions, and what his righteous son did was also under his acquiescence in the final analysis. The reason why he didn't choose to pull the flag and stand on his own was because he felt that it was difficult to fight against the emperor who owned the world with the power of a state. Therefore, it is necessary to mix sand, and do not pin all your hopes on Sun Shuai. ”

King Lu Yan naturally took the opportunity to slap the dragon's fart a few times, but it was nothing more than His Majesty's thoughtful remarks, he was a military general, and it was not a good thing that his mouth was too good.

The tone of the reduction of the feudal domain was set, and several people discussed it carefully, and by the way, the next goal was established, there were many feudal kings, and all the power in their hands had to be taken back.
