Improper stepping stone for men

It's no wonder that Wu Xingwen was so excited. Since the Northern Man was completely repelled three years ago, the old emperor regarded them as a thorn in his side, and has been plotting to get rid of the original owner and his loyal subordinates.

It's just that due to the 50 troops under his command, he was afraid that he would really lead his troops to rebel, so he didn't dare to make big moves, but he kept making small moves.

He sent a supervising army to try to control the frontier army, sent spies to divide them secretly, and even tampered with the food and salary, intending to cause dissatisfaction among his soldiers.

Although these methods were all seen through by them and the conspiracy was resolved in time, they were extremely annoying, and the patience of the old emperor seemed to be getting worse and worse.

This time they suddenly recruited him to Beijing and they guessed that it was probably the old emperor's conspiracy. For the safety of his family, the original owner had to obey, but he also brought five thousand elite soldiers back to Beijing just in case.

Things did not go beyond their expectations. The four princes of the previous generation planned to frame him, and the old emperor took the opportunity to convict him and want to put him to death.

It's a pity that although the original owner was prepared, but because he unguardedly drank the poisonous soup carefully prepared by Jiang Ruxue, all his force was wiped out, and he ended up dead.

In this world, Yang Yan took the old emperor down first, but Wu Xingwen had long since lost confidence in the court, and saw through the nature of those in power. Today's eldest prince, Fang Jialong, is just the next old emperor.

As long as Sheng Yangyan still has a heavy hand in his hand, then the suspicion will never stop, and once he removes the power in his hand, what will happen depends on his conscience.

But to gamble on the conscience of an emperor, it is better to gamble on whether the dog will eat or not!

And if something happened to him, the group of subordinates who followed him would never have any good fruit to eat. Losing power and status would be considered trivial, and maybe their own lives would be brought down to their wives and children.

"Old Wu!" Yang Yan got up and pressed his shoulders, forcing him to calm down with a little force in his hand, "I have always cared about the safety of my brothers, and I didn't choose Fang Jialong because I placed my hopes on him. Have a plan of your own, would you like to hear it?"

Wu Xingwen saw that his face was sincere and did not seem to be fake, the unwillingness and anger in his heart faded a little, and he sat back on the stool and pretended to listen attentively, but his face was still stinky.

Yang Yan shrugged helplessly, don't look at Lao Wu's eyes are not eyes and nose is not nose to him now, in fact, he couldn't be more loyal to the original owner.

In his previous life, Sheng Yangyan was framed and imprisoned, and they, Duke Ning’s subordinates, were also on the arrest list. Wu Xingwen was lucky enough to escape after hearing the news. The subordinates are preparing to rob the prison.

It's a pity that they didn't meet Jiang Ruxue who was traveling with men in the suburbs of Beijing in the last life. His impression of the Duke's wife was still on his own.

In addition, in order to lure them all out, Jiang Ruxue and the fourth prince deliberately conspired to put Jiang's family in prison, leaving her alone "because she just happened to go out to worship the Buddha" and escaped unharmed.

Afterwards, she wandered outside alone, and was quickly rescued by Wu Xingwen and others who found her whereabouts. With her cooperation from inside and outside, the prison robbery naturally ended in failure.

Ning Guogong's subordinates in the middle of the capital were all slaughtered. When the 50 troops in Qicheng got the news, the general was already dead, and the people who had been placed by the old emperor took the opportunity to seize power without a leader.

After a battle, almost [-]% of the frontier army died, and finally returned to the hands of the old emperor, but he didn't please him, and basically all the generals who had some skills in this accident were killed.

The spies from the northern barbarian side passed the news back, and several major tribes took the opportunity to go south again, defeating the Dalin dynasty steadily, and even losing Qicheng, which had been defending for many years.

In the end, the old emperor had to sue for peace, lost money and food, and sent the princess to marry him. Only then did he feed the wolves and make them retreat temporarily.

I don't know if the old emperor, who fell ill shortly after that and kicked his legs after struggling for less than two years, had any regrets about destroying the Great Wall before he died.

But those are not related to Yang Yan's business anymore, he only knows that Wu Xingwen can risk his life and family to save him, it is enough for him to be a trustworthy person.

He is going to play a big game of chess to completely change the current situation in the court. If he does not want to cause large-scale bloody conflicts, it will definitely take a long time, maybe even his entire life.

And he certainly can't fight alone, it's best to have reliable and talented people to work together, and Wu Xingwen happens to have both.

Yang Yan laid out his thoughts and plans to him in detail. From the beginning, Wu Xingwen's disdainful look of "labour and management see what you have to say", was quickly attracted in, and at the end of the day, the whole person was at ease. Immerse yourself in it.

The two talked from the morning until noon, took a few mouthfuls of food to deal with it, and then talked happily at night, drinking and chatting, and finally got drunk. By the time he woke up the next day, Wu Xingwen had been completely convinced up.

There is no need for Yang Yan to worry about the future. With such a capable military adviser, the soldiers under his command were only angry for a while, and did not intend to turn their faces because of this, so they were quickly appeased by him.

On this day, news came from the palace that the old emperor woke up after being treated, and asked to see Ning Guogong by name.

Yang Yan tidied himself up and went to the palace in good spirits. Fang Jialong was very nervous about his father waking up, so he specially summoned him first and promised a lot of benefits, as if he was afraid that he would go back on his word and support the old emperor.

He was quite speechless about this. The old emperor is now a tiger whose teeth have been pulled out. If the new emperor has his heart, he can't even deliver the news. I really don't know what he is afraid of?

But he supported the eldest prince at the beginning, didn't he just because of his idiot nature?It's just what he wants to be so easy to play with, so it's fine to complain in his heart.

The old emperor has now been moved to a palace where he used to rest occasionally, and the original bedroom was forced to be occupied by the new emperor who couldn't wait to confirm his identity, but he gave birth to a good son.

Of course, this place is not as gorgeous as the original palace, but it is not much worse. However, the eunuchs and maids encountered along the way lost all their vigor because of the serious illness of the master, and the whole palace seemed lifeless.

And the dying old emperor lying on the hospital bed made this place look more like a tomb.

Hearing the eunuch's report, he opened his eyes drowsily, the inside was cloudy, and the muscles on his face twitched twice, as if he wanted to speak, but only a "ho ho—" sound came out of his throat, The water flowed down the corner of his mouth first.

The little eunuch standing by the bed hurriedly wiped it clean for him, and comforted him carefully: "Don't worry, the emperor, speak slowly."

Hearing the words "Taishanghuang", the corners of the old emperor's eyes twitched fiercely a few times, his whole body became more energetic, and he looked at Xiang Yangyan with resentment in his eyes.

"A few pots of mud to calm down!" He struggled to squeeze out a few words from his mouth.

The little lady understood what he meant, and looked at King Ning in embarrassment, hesitating whether he should convey the truth, after all, he is now a big celebrity in front of the new emperor, if he offended him, he might not have a good life.

"Needless to say, this king can understand." Yang Yan relieved him intimately, and then ordered, "You all go down, this king and the Supreme Emperor will have a chat alone for a while."

The few people in the room were at a loss for a while, and looked at each other for a few times, but in the end they still didn't dare to offend him, so they answered "Yes" hesitantly, and retreated lightly, and hid it obediently. Okay door.

As for the opinion of the Supreme Emperor lying on the bed, I'm sorry, no one will take it into consideration now, after all he can't speak clearly, they can pretend that they don't understand.

Yang Yan listened to the sound of breathing that was never far away from the door, smiled silently, didn't bother to pretend to salute, and said directly: "Is the Supreme Emperor trying to praise the emperor to the throne?"

He sighed, and said: "I know that you have always liked the Fourth Highness more, but he is not upright, and he did such a shameless thing in public, how can he be worthy of being an emperor?"

Then he said righteously and sternly: "As the eldest son of the emperor, the emperor should inherit the throne, and his character is noble and noble. It is very suitable for him to be the emperor. I can't agree with you, the emperor."

He didn't deliberately lower his voice, the few eavesdroppers outside the room heard his words clearly and looked at each other, one of them left quietly, and the rest continued to eavesdrop on the crack of the door.

But they didn't know that after saying this, Yang Yan leaned closer to the old emperor's ear and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty spent his whole life as a dog, but in the end the throne fell to a trash. I don't know if the future will be guaranteed or not. How do you feel now?"

The old emperor was so angry that his eyes widened, his breath came and went, and he kept making "ho ho" sounds from his throat. He raised his hands tremblingly, as if he wanted to scratch him, but it was a pity that he exhausted all his strength. He raised it to the distance of a palm, and then fell back weakly.

Yang Yan had admired his embarrassment enough, so he used his normal voice again, pretending to be anxious to persuade: "Don't be upset, the emperor, the imperial doctor said that you should not get angry now, even if you are not satisfied with the emperor, you should relax. Don't get mad."

It is no wonder that the old emperor is not angry because of his pretentious posture, his eyes have already started to turn white, seeing that posture, if he is not really unable to move, he can't wait to pounce on him and bite him to death immediately.

However, Yang Yan was still not satisfied, so he added fuel to the fire and whispered in his ear: "Didn't Your Majesty always want to get rid of the subject and hurry up? It's a pity that the subject is not up to you. Of course, in this case, the first It’s better to act stronger.”

The old emperor's already wide-eyed eyes widened in an instant, and he managed to squeeze out two vague words: "It's mud?"
