The eldest son of the red mansion

"Long live, it's better to send Wang Ziteng to inspect the Nine Sides. Wang Ziteng has some ability. He can at least temporarily resist the Tatars when he goes to the Nine Sides. Moreover, Wang Ziteng is the Supreme Emperor's man. His promotion to the Supreme Emperor will definitely not stop him." Lei Ying Now it seems to be somewhat confident.

"Then there is Wang Ziteng, who can be regarded as Jia Ke's uncle. With his face, Jia Ke's old departments in Xuanfu and Liaodong Towns will not be contradictory. In this way, he will be safe when he comes to the capital. As long as he is careful in other places Rectification can also resist the attack of the Tatars." Lei Ying spit out his plan at once.

After hearing this, the emperor fell into deep thought. This is one way. As long as Jia Ke is not allowed to go to the Nine Sides to control the army, he can accept any other way.

But Liu Yu, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials next to him, is an old official. He is more far-reaching than the emperor thought. , Brother Lei has a solution."

The emperor was startled by his sound, but when he looked up and saw his beaming face, he knew that he had already guessed the secret, so he hurriedly asked: "Liu Aiqing, what's the secret of this method, tell me about it." .”

"Your Majesty, if Wang Ziteng goes to the border, it will be equivalent to breaking a part of Jia Ke's arm in the capital. At that time, we recommend Brother Lei to replace Wang Ziteng to take charge of the Beijing camp. In this way, it can be regarded as mastering a part of the army that can be controlled by the Supreme Emperor Jia Ke." It's time for a fight." Liu Yu said excitedly.

In his heart, military generals must be restrained by their civil servants, otherwise there will be no great chaos in the world.As soon as Prince Teng left, they would jointly write a letter recommending Lei Ying, the former minister of the Supreme Emperor. As long as the Supreme Emperor accidentally agreed, then the emperor would have the capital to contend with the Supreme Emperor.

At this time, the emperor also wanted to understand the key point, and walked up and down in the hall excitedly.If this plan succeeds, it will be of great benefit to him.Even if he fails, he has nothing to lose.So why not give it a try?

Zuodu Censor Tianye has not said a word until now, but he just feels that these gentlemen in his eyes before are so ferocious and hateful now, and they are much worse than Jia Ke. Although Jia Ke has some losses in small details, at least Jia Ke has always been impartial and selfless in such major matters affecting the country.However, the emperor and other ministers in the palace have disregarded the interests of the country in order to fight for power and profit, which is really chilling.

At this time, the balance in Tian Ye's heart couldn't help but tilted like Jia Ke's.

The emperor sat in the middle, slapped the table and said to the people below: "That's it, you go back and discuss it separately, and bring it up when the court is in a few days. It's best to discuss the matter on that day." It is decided that the Supreme Emperor and Jia Ke must be caught by surprise, and they must not have time to react."

So several of the emperor's close ministers bowed their hands together and shouted long live three times, which was regarded as agreeing to the emperor's request.

The emperor was here to discuss military and state affairs, and the Supreme Emperor was not idle. Of course, the Supreme Emperor did not call the ministers to discuss state affairs.He is waiting for the spies to give him his return.

Since the abdication of the Supreme Emperor, although he still holds great power, as the emperor has more and more control over the court situation, his prestige in the hearts of the court ministers has also become higher and higher, and the Supreme Emperor has become more and more afraid of the emperor, so now The Supreme Emperor mainly concentrated his energy on the emperor, and was really afraid that the emperor would kill his father and force the palace.

Therefore, during this period of time, the Supreme Emperor's monitoring of the emperor has become more and more strict. Even if the emperor casually said a word to an eunuch, the sentence would be placed on the Supreme Emperor's table the next day.

In the Ningshou Palace, the Supreme Emperor was lying on a soft couch with his eyes closed. Although autumn is coming soon, the weather is still very hot. There are a lot of ice cubes placed everywhere in the Ningshou Palace. Next to the Supreme Emperor, the court lady waved a brocade fan for him.

In the past, the Supreme Emperor had already fallen asleep at this time, which was also the suggestion given to him by the imperial physician, but today he is still waiting for someone to pass the news to him.

Soon Dai Quan walked in from outside the palace gate, and then gently came to the side of the Supreme Emperor.He took the fan from the hand of the court lady, waved her to go down, and then replaced her work, gently fanning the Supreme Emperor.

The Taishanghuang seemed to be asleep, and there was no movement until a stick of incense passed.Only then did the Supreme Emperor ask, "Have all the people over there left?"

Dai Quan Jingsheng replied: "If you go back to the Supreme Emperor, everyone will leave."

"What did those people say? Didn't they want the old man's life?" Although the Supreme Emperor was expressionless, his tone was full of helplessness. I didn't expect the father and son to be suspicious to this extent.

When Dai Quan heard the question from the Supreme Emperor, he didn't dare to answer for a while, and he didn't know whether the emperor's preparation for military power was considered a conspiracy.

The Supreme Emperor waited for a while to see Dai Quan, and saw that Dai Quan didn't answer, so he asked unhappily: "Could it be that they really want to assassinate the king?"

This time, Dai Quan didn't dare to be negligent anymore, and truthfully reported to the Supreme Emperor: "Long live, the emperor called the ministers and discussed it. They plan to jointly protect Prince Teng and go to inspect the nine borders to stabilize the border. Tatars."

After hearing these words, the emperor nodded and said: "Wang Ziteng still has some abilities. His going to the border will at least make the generals on the nine borders feel fearful, and he can make better defense arrangements for this year. What else did they say, it won't be just that." Son."

Dai Quan really didn't dare to say more about the last words, but the Supreme Emperor asked anxiously again, he considered it in his heart, and then replied: "Long live, the emperor wants to wait for Prince Teng to be promoted. , let all the ministers present the memorial together, recommending the minister of the Ministry of War and Lei Ying, the minister of military aircraft, to take over the soldiers and horses left by Lord Wang Ziteng."

The Supreme Emperor sat there with a sneer, "I knew they would not have any good intentions. I have only been the emperor for a few months, and I can't bear the loneliness. It seems that the old man is not pleasing to the eye." , reusing Jia Ke and other confidants to control the military force, I think it is correct. This emperor kept making small moves before he ascended the throne, and it became more frequent after he ascended the throne. It seems that he is unwilling to be lonely.

"Let me tell you what else, how many storms I have gone through, these things still can't scare me." The tone of the Supreme Emperor became more and more cold. Although he gave up the throne to the present for the sake of his ancestors' foundation, but in his Before I die, I still don't want to give up the power in my hands, because power is like poppies, and I don't feel anything when I have it, but once I lose it, I'm afraid it's time to die.

Dai Quan was also a little cautious. Ever since the emperor abdicated as the Supreme Emperor, Xia Shouzhong, who was next to the new emperor, had been fighting with him for power.This is to take away the power of the secret agent from him, which is not something he can tolerate, thinking that anyway, the emperor already has the heart to fight against the old emperor, so it is not too much to add fuel and jealousy, and finally we can give Xia Shouzhong to Xia Shouzhong together. Get rid of it, let everyone in the palace know that Dai Quan is still their old grandfather.

Then Dai Quan shed tears, choked up and threw himself at the Supreme Emperor's feet, and began to cry after a while.

The Supreme Emperor was taken aback for a moment, and then gently pushed him away with his foot. He still cared very much about this old man who had been with him for decades.

"Just say what you have to say. How does it look like you're crying? Didn't someone bully you? Tell me clearly so that I can make the decision for you." The Supreme Emperor said gently to the old servant who was kneeling on the ground.

While wiping his tears, Dai Quan was about to say something, and it was these words that ruined the emperor's world.

Chapter 319 The dark tide is surging

Dai Quan knelt there, choked up and cried: "My lord, this servant loves you so much. You are exhausted from working so hard for the world. Why do they still treat you like this? Are they still there?" Conscience, the slave really dare not say the following words."

Looking at his appearance, the Supreme Emperor knew that what he said might not be trivial, but after thinking about it, he was relieved. Wasn't it the emperor who wanted to deal with him?But what can he do to himself?

"You old slave, if you have something to say quickly, do you still want me to beg you?" Although the Supreme Emperor's words were not polite, his tone was very gentle. Over the past few decades, the Supreme Emperor has been used to Dai Quan being by his side. His feelings are different from others, even if Dai Quan made some mistakes, as long as his throne is not threatened, he will just turn a blind eye.

Besides, the Supreme Emperor felt that Dai Quan was right. Do these people have a conscience?I almost gave my heart to the emperor, isn't it enough?Could it be that he would be willing to eat his flesh and blood? Could it be that he can't even wait for my last years?Thinking of this, I don't even feel a burst of sadness in my heart.

Dai Quan frowned for a while, and then said: "My lord, the emperor...these people have no good intentions. They wanted to seize the military power in Dongnuange, so as to make you empty of Long live you, and the eunuch Xia Shouzhong next to the emperor, It has already begun to secretly seize the power of secret agents. I heard that the emperor wants you not to go out in Ningshou Palace, but to take care of your old age. I feel chilling for you when I heard it."

Dai Quan was adding fuel and jealousy to the emperor. Now the emperor sent Xia Shouzhong to compete with him for the right to the inner palace and secret talks. When the opportunity arises, it is natural to show the emperor and Xia Shouzhong's pride.

When the Supreme Emperor heard this, he couldn't help being angry from the heart, and the evil came to his gallbladder.Unexpectedly, his son who personally supported the emperor's throne would have such vicious thoughts towards him.This is not letting him live in the old age, it is clearly putting him under house arrest in Ningshou Palace.Maybe one day he is not pleasing to the eye, and a glass of poisoned wine will kill him.

The Taishanghuang thought that this is because he has the military power by himself, and there are cronies such as Jia Ke and Wang Ziteng by his side. If there were no such people, he might have become the ashes of the corpse factory long ago.

At this time, the Supreme Emperor couldn't bear it any longer, picked up a teacup next to him, and slammed it down.Then he jumped up from the soft couch. At this time, his eyes were red and his nose was panting heavily. He directly pulled out a sword from the wall, and took it to slash in the hall.

The Supreme Emperor has now thrown away the last bit of father-son affection for the emperor, and now there are only monarchs and ministers without father and son between him and the emperor.

After the Taishanghuang slashed in the hall, he threw the sword aside, and finally sat on the steps panting heavily.

Dai Quan was so frightened that he didn't dare to move. Although he thought the emperor would be angry, he didn't expect the emperor to be so irritable, but that's fine.Only in this way will the Supreme Emperor personally suppress the emperor, and he will be able to re-establish his ancestor's status in the palace.

It was Dai Quan who never expected that it was his few slanderous words just now that made the Supreme Emperor completely lose his trust in the Emperor.The consequence of this is that the Supreme Emperor favored Jia Ke even more, making him the gravedigger of this dynasty.

After the emperor vented, he calmed down a little. At this time, he regretted that he should not have passed the throne to the emperor. Now that he thought about it, except for Jia Ke, those civil servants tried their best to give in to him. Could it be that they had colluded together long ago? , At that time, I set a trap for myself, but at this time, it was too late to regret.

After all, the Taishanghuang is an old emperor who has been in control for many years, and the strategy in his heart is not comparable to that of the new emperor. He came up with a way when he thought about it, and let them steal chickens without losing money when they are in power in a few days.

Then there is the side of the royal spy, which is one of the foundations of the old emperor, how can others touch it?As long as the secret agent is still in the hands of the slave Dai Quan, then he knows everything about the world like the palm of his hand, and he can see every move of the emperor and the ministers of the world. How can such an important institution allow the emperor to get involved? Once the emperor masters such a Institution, then he, the Supreme Emperor, is not far from death.

The Taishanghuang has now made up his mind to make the emperor suffer, and let him be a puppet honestly from now on. If he still acts recklessly like this, then he can only implement the strategy of abolishing the establishment, and no matter whether he re-enters The throne, or choosing an honest prince as the emperor, is much better than the current one.

What the Supreme Emperor regrets most now is that he chose a prince with great ambitions as emperor. If he was just a mediocre person, there would be no such turmoil. He couldn't understand what the third son was thinking?Wouldn't it be good to wait for him to pass away and then take over the power safely?When the time comes, he, the Supreme Emperor, will definitely make proper arrangements for him. There is no need for him, the emperor, to be so anxious.

Now that I think about it, it would be better to choose a mediocre prince, so that he can spend his old age in peace, and the court may not be in turmoil. Now the emperor is very ambitious, but he is a threat to himself.

In the next few days, everything was calm, and the capital was still singing and dancing, but there was a dark tide in the dark.

For the past few days, Liu Yu, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, has had a lot of banquets at home every day, almost inviting all the important officials in the court, and I don't know how many exchanges and conspiracies have gone through.

Lei Ying, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, has not been idle during this period of time. Although he is a little hesitant about the next thing, he has no choice but to act.So he also used the relationship of the Ministry of War to infiltrate the two major capital camps controlled by Wang Ziteng.He just wanted to be able to control the 10 horses safely when the imperial court achieved righteousness, so that Jia Ke would not be able to take advantage of it.

The other person in the Military Aircraft Department, Zuodu Yushi Tianye, was observing carefully in secret. Although he is the emperor's man, he is not optimistic about the emperor's seizure of power this time. Silently observing the Taishanghuang's actions, he was afraid that the Taishanghuang would launch a thunderbolt, and when the time came, would there be any eggs under the overturned nest?

And Dai Quan has been under the orders of the Supreme Emperor these days to closely monitor the actions of the emperor's confidantes.The actions of Liu Yu, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and the list of people he met with were sent to the Taishanghuang's desk non-stop. At the beginning, the Taishanghuang was furious, but then gradually calmed down, but his eyes became more and more gloomy.Sometimes Dai Quan felt chills all over while watching from the side.

In a few days, the Supreme Emperor received the news from the Minister of War that Lei Ying was moving around and infiltrating the two camps in the capital. This time, the Supreme Emperor really felt a chill on his neck.

Originally, the Taishang Emperor thought that the emperor was just paying attention to the court, and then he would move the two camps after obtaining the status. Unexpectedly, he had already arranged in advance. Could it be that he was thinking that if the court could not succeed, he would forcibly seize the two camps? The military power of the big camp, when the time comes to let him throw a mouse, he can only be a dumb man eating coptis, and he can't tell the pain.
