Chapter 264: Absurdity
"Your Majesty, what will you do with the rebellious King Ning?"
Only Zhu Houzhao and a man in red were left on the street, which seemed a little deserted.
"The imperial uncle who asked Wang Aiqing to release me, I will personally arrest him once. ”
When the emperor said this, the man in red next to him couldn't help frowning, and asked suspiciously: "But the emperor, you have just been out of danger, and if you go back at this time, ......?"
The man in red didn't finish his words, but he saw Zhu Houzhao's meaningful smile, and suddenly realized, and said, "My subordinates understand, and I will convey the emperor's intentions." ”
Zhu Houzhao finally laughed out loud and said heartily: "This is in line with what a faint monarch does, since you want to numb the enemy, you should be thorough." ”
The man in red said that he obeyed the order, and the figure disappeared in place, and only the emperor Zhu Houzhao was left in the entire long street, and he was unspeakably lonely.
At this time, if an assassin came to assassinate him, he would definitely not be able to escape, and there would be no master who could protect him.
But who would notice a person dressed in coarse cloth and looking so ordinary that it was inconspicuous?
He should have several dragon guards lying in ambush by his side, ready to standby, but the emperor just asked those people to evacuate to protect the fake emperor of Li Daitao.
The more attention to detail you have, the more you can confuse the real with the fake.
Zhu Houzhao naturally understands this, with a master like Dragon Guard by his side, no matter how much he hides it, his true qi will be exposed, which is not conducive to the emperor's plan.
The soldier is a dangerous move, the king of a country, there is no one to protect him, and he is alone in danger, such a bearing is enough to be proud of the world!
And in Shangshu Mansion, facing Qiao Yu's problem. Wang Shouren's face showed a worried look.
This is not as simple as a rebellion by a vassal king, and it is impossible to send a large number of soldiers to search for it, and the number of people is too small to be effective.
Faced with this thorny question, Wang Shouren opened his mouth and asked, "Where is Jiang Bin?"
On the night of the incident, Jiang Bin had a headache. has been bedridden, if he knew about this, he would definitely give him the truth, let me wait for the head to fall to the ground. ”
Wang Shouren fell into deep thought, and said: "Lord Shangshu doesn't need to panic, I think this matter is a little strange, it must be related to Jiang Bin, as a close confidant of the emperor, how can he not know such a big thing? The reason why he showed such restraint. It's testing our attitude. ”
Qiao Yu, the secretary of the military department, hurriedly asked: "Then Jiang Bin has such wolf ambitions, and the adults said that he was testing us, but I don't know where to start?"
Wang Shouren showed an indifferent expression and said: "He is testing what we will do when we learn that the emperor is missing, if we can't act actively and make a difference, he will let the emperor's disappearance be announced to the world." ”
Qiao Yu shouted loudly: "The thief is bold, and he is not afraid of Ling Chi's execution." Zhulian Nine Clans?"
Wang Shouren smiled, for careerists. There is really no need to be afraid, because the temptation of power is worth any price.
It's just that the wise Wang Shouren didn't expect that Jiang Bin was not the mastermind behind the scenes, but a poor chess piece.
"We need to take a stand and show the necessary attitude. ”
Wang Shouren said calmly, Qiao Yu looked at Wang Shouren who didn't have any anxious expression. He frowned and asked, "Why can Lord Wang still be so calm, the top priority should be to find the emperor first, and then bring Jiang Bin to justice." ”
Wang Shouren shook his head and said, "Don't startle the snake."
While the two were talking, one of his subordinates suddenly came to report: "My lord." The emperor had returned to the palace and ordered the release of King Ning, and he would personally lead his troops to quell the rebellion again. ”
Hearing the soldier's report, the two high-ranking officials of the imperial court were stunned.
"Ridiculous, this kind of practice is simply regarded as child's play in the affairs of the military state! Lord Wang, how should this be?"
Faced with Qiao Yu Shangshu's question, Wang Shouren fell into a short period of contemplation, a smile of indifference appeared on his face, and he asked in a calm tone, "What does Lord Shangshu want?"
Unexpectedly, the other party threw the question back, Qiao Yu was a little unhappy in his heart, and said angrily: "As an official of the imperial court, I can't let go of the emperor's behavior, I will gather six officials, big and small, and recommend Your Majesty to death, if he doesn't take back his order, we can't afford to kneel for a long time." ”
Wang Shouren just shook his head slightly, and said: "My lord, don't worry about it, in my opinion, this is just the emperor playing with us, you and I will wait and see." ”
Zhu Chenhao, the former king of Ning, had lost his weight in prison, and when he was waiting for death, he suddenly saw the jailer come and open the prison door.
He rebelled, and the court would not let him go no matter what, but before he was tried by the three divisions, should he be executed in private?
Just when he was speculating in vain, the waiter of the Criminal Department came to announce the decree: "The criminal minister Zhu Chenhao, I will release you from prison by the emperor's command." ”
Hearing this, King Ning, who had seen strong winds and waves, experienced prosperity, and suffered failure, couldn't help but be stunned.
"What is the emperor's intention in doing this?"
The squire looked at the prisoner under the stairs and said loudly: "The reason why the emperor released you is to personally arrest you and put you in prison. ”
"Hahaha", King Ning suddenly laughed, looking at the serious waiter, he said arrogantly: "Just because he dares to say this, if he really dares to compete with me face to face, how can I lose to him?"
In the face of this unrepentant vassal king who was dying, the squire did not say anything more, and released him from prison according to the instructions of Emperor Zhu Houzhao.
Some of the leaders of the rebels, under the leadership of King Ning, confronted the elite soldiers led by the emperor across the water.
"Traitor, for your own selfishness, you brazenly launched a war, ignoring the people of Limin, do you know your mistake?"
Emperor Zhu Houzhao stood in front of the formation and shouted to Zhu Chenhao on the other side.
A contemptuous smile appeared on King Ning's face, although there were less than a hundred people under his hands, there were still less than a hundred faint monarchs on the opposite side, and the time for a fair contest had finally arrived.
He even had the illusion that as long as he killed the person opposite, the whole world would belong to him.
He's impatient!
"Faint Monarch, take your life!" With a shout, King Ning opened his bow and quickly shot an arrow, in his opinion, the Faint Monarch without any shield soldier cover was already certain to die.
However, the arrow he grasped was easily dodged by the emperor, and King Ning did not believe it, and the second arrow was immediately shot.
This arrow was even more powerful, and King Ning believed that the faint monarch on the opposite side would no longer be able to avoid it.
But that arrow was copied by the emperor in his hand, and King Ning completely collapsed, it turned out that the faint monarch in his heart turned out to be such a master!
As soon as the emperor gave the order, the soldiers he led charged forward, and the rebels had no intention of fighting, and they were about to collapse at the first touch.
The emperor personally captured the dull-eyed Zhu Chenhao and ended this seemingly farce-like war.
And the real struggle has just begun.
