Tyrant Whitewashing Plan [Transmigration Book]
Chapter 112
Xiao Jining was very clear that his position as emperor was not secure.
Attacked by external troubles and internal troubles, he is like duckweed, staggering in the turbulent political situation of the Great Xiao, and may be overthrown at any time, but he is luckier than others - because he is with Jing Yuan, the most feared thing for the emperors of all dynasties. Military power is not a big problem for him.
On the side of the civil servants, Prime Minister Xie dutifully assisted him; on the side of the old nobleman, his father-in-law Fuguo Gong supported him; on the royal side, the most likely threat to the throne was not the fourth and fifth princes with a bad reputation, It was the Seventh Prince who was the most vocal, but getting the Seventh Prince to ascend the throne was as difficult as killing him.
Therefore, leaving aside the external troubles, the only person who could assassinate him in the internal troubles was Jing Yue.
Even when the assassin appeared, Jing Yue was also there.
But at that time, he was so far away from Jingyue, and the scene was chaotic. Everyone only cared about escorting and protecting themselves. Who would pay attention to see Jingyue?Jingyue can find someone who is similar in stature to disguise himself and pretend to be him. Anyway, he is "injured" and won't make a move.
If the assassin was arranged by the fourth prince and the fifth prince, even if the assassin really killed him, only the seventh prince survived, they would not be able to ascend the throne, and if he died in this case, the fourth prince and the fifth prince would be the target of public criticism, after all they have the greatest suspicion.Even if the fourth and fifth princes were truly wicked, they would never assassinate the emperor right now, they would only recharge their batteries and plot secretly.
These things can be figured out with a little analysis. Xiao Jining was just guessing at the beginning, but now that Jing Yuan has reminded him like this, wouldn't he still understand?
"Your Majesty is smart, but—" Xiao Jining was able to see so clearly, which surprised Jing Yuan, and he praised Xiao Jining.
But alas, these are only the surface.Jing Yuan wanted to remind Xiao Jining to do something else, but when he looked down, he found that the young man was breathing slowly and slowly, and he was already asleep.
Xiao Jining's snow-white face was a little flushed due to the excitement just now, and his chin usually looked sharp, but he didn't expect that the flesh was quite full, and some piles of flesh were pressed on the pillow.
"That's all." Jing Yuan pulled the corner of his lips and sighed softly, "I still don't want to see you look too much like me."
The next day was the last day of the birthday party.
There was nothing else to do on this day, except that the emperor summoned all the courtiers and foreign missions to have a meal to see them off.
The birthday banquet was held in front of the Xuanzheng Hall.
After eating banquets for so many days, Xiao Ji Ning got a little tired of eating even the most delicious dishes and delicacies - of course, the most important thing he got tired of was this group of people.
It is enough to upset Xiao Jining to be with the empress dowager and the four princes and five princes on weekdays. Now that there are two more brothers, Tubo Sanye and Turkic Ashinaq, Xiao Jining is really exhausted physically and mentally. There was no big movement between Dongying and Jugaoli, otherwise Xiao Jining felt that he really didn't want to sit on the throne any more.
After finally finishing the meal in peace, there was only a few more "cordial" conversations with the envoys from various countries, which would be the perfect end to the birthday banquet. There was no problem with Tubo, but when the Japanese envoy came forward, there were three beautiful women behind him.
Xiao Jining asked him: "Envoy Watanabe, who is this?"
Xiao Jining felt that his attitude of not wanting to marry was already very obvious yesterday, not to mention that he, the emperor, did not act properly, no matter which foreign country he was, there was no need to rashly marry him at this time, in case the marriage was done earlier, He, Emperor Yun Chu, was overthrown on the back foot?Wouldn't that be a loss to the princess who came to marry and offend the new emperor who will ascend the throne in the future?
The Dongying envoy smiled and said, "Your Majesty, these three are my doctor girls from Dongying, and I present them to His Majesty as the last congratulatory gift."
The folk customs of the Great Xiao are open, and there have been several respectable generals in history, and women can also be officials, but so far no woman has obtained fame and become a civil official, but there are more female officials in the harem, and there are two female doctors in the Imperial Hospital .
However, a female doctor is a female doctor, and a female doctor is a female doctor. A female doctor is equivalent to a maidservant or an apprentice, and her status is completely different from that of a female doctor. In the early stage of the palace, her status can only be said to be the same as that of a palace maid.
But this can be regarded as a different kind of "marriage". If the emperor takes a fancy to these medical women and accepts them as concubines, it is a marriage; It's not in the way, and it won't offend the new emperor.
"When Emperor Yun Hong was here, Dongying also presented three medical girls." The Dongying envoy seemed to be afraid that Xiao Jining would not accept it, so he said a few nice words of flattery to Xiao Jining, "I hope that Your Majesty Yun Chu's rule , can last as long as Emperor Yunhong."
"But the first emperor—" Xiao Jining raised his brows when he heard the words, and slightly leaned over to look at the Dongpu envoy and said, "He died of the unique poison of Dongpu."
The Japanese envoy probably didn't expect Xiao Jining to say such a word, and he froze in place.
However, Xiao Jining does not intend to have a confrontation with Dongying for the time being. Anyway, he accepts three medical girls and puts them in the imperial hospital, not in his harem. Kai said: "I was just joking with you. I have absolutely no reason to refuse such kindness. Then I would like to thank Envoy Watanabe."
"Your Majesty, you are being polite." The Dongying envoy lowered his head, smiled a few words and left.
Now, only the Turkic envoy is left.
However, it was not the messenger who came forward to say goodbye to Xiao Jining, but the second Turkic prince Ashinaq.
"Your Majesty Yunchu." Ashnak walked up to Xiao Jining, and saluted him respectfully.
Xiao Jining continued to maintain a smile on his face, and said to him: "After coming to Daxiao for so many days, it seems that the second prince's disaccustomed disease has mostly healed."
"It's not good." Ashnak immediately shook his head after hearing Xiao Jining's words, "It's just that His Majesty is such a heavenly figure, no matter how ill I am, I still want to come and see Your Majesty."
Xiao Jining: "..."
Forget it, you better shut up and stop talking.
"Your Majesty and I have seen each other like old friends. I don't have anything to give Your Majesty a gift before I leave. Why don't I give Your Majesty a secret." Ashnak saw enough of Xiao Jining's speechless look, and grinned with white teeth, "It's just This news cannot be heard by too many people, and I hope His Majesty will allow me to come close and tell His Majesty this secret personally."
Xiao Jining looked down at him for a while, then got up and walked down the imperial platform.
Mu Kui wanted to stop him: "Your Majesty, be careful of fraud."
"Nothing." Xiao Jining waved his hand, letting Mu Kui leave.
He walked up to Ashnak, but he wasn't too close to him, the two were separated by an arm's length, Xiao Jining said: "The second prince can talk."
Ashnak was still speechless: "Why is Your Majesty so far away from me? Are you worried about what I will do to you?"
Xiao Jining gave him a sideways glance, turned around and made a gesture to go back: "If I don't want to say anything, I will leave."
"Say it, of course you have to say it." Seeing that Xiao Jining was not excited, Ashinak could only quickly stop him and said, "Your Majesty, do you still remember the hunting ground assassination?"
Xiao Jining faced him again, and said concisely: "Remember."
Ashnak said again: "Then have you found out the mastermind of the assassin?"
Xiao Jining said in a flat tone: "Dongchang, Dali Temple, and the Ministry of Punishment are all investigating."
"If I tell Your Majesty..." Ashnak paused, and when he looked up at Xiao Jining again, the cynical aura around him suddenly became serious, "The assassin leader I already know is who?"
This is Ashnak's so-called secret?Xiao Jining felt that Ashnak was wasting his time on purpose, so he glanced at Ashnak and said speechlessly: "It's Jingyue."
Ashnak was stunned for a moment when he heard the name "Jingyue", and then looked at Xiao Jining with more interest in his eyes, and said amusedly: "Didn't your majesty already know this? Why are you talking about Dongchang, Dali Temple, and the Ministry of Punishment?" Are they all checking?"
Seeing the sincerity of Ashnak's question, Xiao Jining reluctantly told him mercifully: "They are still investigating, and Jing Yuan told me this news."
Ashnak was even more stunned when he heard the words. After he came back to his senses, he only felt that Da Xiao, the emperor of Yunchu, had given him more and more surprises. This young man was not like what was rumored outside—— Quiet and introverted, moderate and timid.
Perhaps there were other reasons why Xiao Jining was able to ascend the throne.
What he was curious about was why Jing Yuan was so loyal to Xiao Jining, and Xiao Jining, did he have the same trust in Jing Yuan?
Ashnak shook his head slightly, and sighed: "People in the world say that General Jing is your majesty's companion, grew up with you since childhood, is loyal to you, and the world can learn from you. It seems that it is indeed the case. "
Xiao Jining was also quite surprised by Ashenak, this person was the first foreigner he had ever met who could speak Chinese so smoothly and also use idioms, so Xiao Jining praised him with hypocrisy: " The second prince speaks Chinese well, and he has the talent to be a citizen of my Great Xiao."
"Thank you for your compliment, Your Majesty." Ashnak pretended not to understand the insinuation in Xiao Jining's words, and reminded him: "It's just that, Your Majesty, no matter how familiar the dog is, it still eats meat and can bite people. of."
"It's a pity that Jing Yuan is not a dog." Xiao Jining stood with his hands behind his back, and stopped looking at Ashnak, "If you scold him again, don't blame me for being rude."
Ashnak raised his eyebrows, and took a step towards Xiao Jining: "Your Majesty actually trusts Young Master Jing so much?"
Xiao Jining sensed Ashnak's approach, and in order to avoid suspicion—and also because he was afraid of overturning Jing Yuan's jealousy, he also frowned and took a step back.
But Ashnak thought that Xiao Jining was a little afraid of him, so he chuckled lightly, stared at Xiao Jining, and asked him suddenly: "Your Majesty, do you know? At this distance, I can actually cut you off immediately." neck. Would you like to guess, whether Major General Jing, whom you trust so much, can save you? Or—”
"Will he save you?"
Attacked by external troubles and internal troubles, he is like duckweed, staggering in the turbulent political situation of the Great Xiao, and may be overthrown at any time, but he is luckier than others - because he is with Jing Yuan, the most feared thing for the emperors of all dynasties.
