[Rebirth] Emperor Yonggao Ji

"Your subordinates are done, come and return!"

Chen Qian was playing chess with himself to pass the time, when he heard the news, he dropped the chess piece, leaned on the table and asked, "Did you see him die with your own eyes?"

The man half-kneeling on the ground was stunned and said: "Yong Jun is well protected, and the subordinates naturally cannot see him dying. But the subordinate shot an arrow in the man's chest, and the man fell to the ground. Those who were dragged into the car were expected to die.”

Chen Qian nodded, and asked again: "I asked you to follow the Yongguo frame. Is there any other situation along the way? It doesn't matter if it's a small matter."

The man thought for a while, "Yes. After the Yongguo convoy left Taiyuan, the man got out of the car and vomited three times, as if he was ill."

Chen Qian suddenly stood up and paced in the hall.From this point of view, Wang Sheng didn't lie to him when he said he couldn't drink alcohol. Perhaps it was because Zhao Wang's expression was too obvious during the banquet that day, which made Wang Sheng suspicious, so he took the glass of wine.It seems that he underestimated Wang Sheng. Under such circumstances, if an ordinary person saw Zhao Wang like this, he would think it was a fraud and dare not take this glass of wine. However, Wang Sheng could do the opposite and broke his status A plan.But Wang Sheng was smarter than he imagined, but not so smart.If, like his previous guess, Wang Sheng could have been drinking, but he lied to himself on the first day of their relationship, leading him to come up with this plan, then it would be called unpredictable.

But it doesn't matter now whether he's smart or not.At the border between the two countries, refugees and bandits are rampant, and the court has not had time to deal with it, but now it has helped him a lot. It is really a blessing and a curse.

"Prime Minister, a military report has been sent from Hedong!"

Chen Qian took the military newspaper and saw that the first sentence on it was "King Yong and Prime Minister Yong led the army to capture Jiangzhou City". Holding the military newspaper, he was taken aback for a moment, then sighed, and sat back slowly.

He was neither furious nor annoyed, he just lowered his head and thought silently, several plans have come to nothing, is it really God's will?

Liu Fu suddenly launched an attack and took Jiangzhou City. King Zhao must be furious and wants to send troops to take it back.But can it really be played?He sighed again, changed his clothes, and went to the palace to meet King Zhao.

Besides, when the emperors and ministers of the Yong Kingdom returned to Chang'an, Liu Fu saw that Wang Sheng was still sick, so he drove him back to the mansion to recuperate, and returned to the palace with the geography of the Zhao Kingdom he had written.

He also lived up to Wang Sheng's painstaking efforts, and started to study overnight.Not only did Wang Sheng write down the dangers of every mountain and river, but he also attached the methods of attack and defense at the bottom, with profound insights, which made Liu Fu gradually fascinated by reading.

In the middle of the night, his stomach growled loudly.Liu Fu was so hungry that he couldn't read the book. Seeing the palace servants who were waiting at the side dozing off against the wall, he got up to find something to eat by himself.He groped in the dark, deducing in his mind as he walked. He didn't know how long he had walked, and then he suddenly came back to his senses and looked around. Only then did he realize that not only did he not reach the imperial kitchen, but he didn't even know where he was. Painted, also can not see the plaque.It's all his fault that he wanted to follow the example of the ancients and ordered the palace people to reduce the number of candles lit at night in the palace, but he didn't expect to be fooled by this.

He rubbed his belly, sighed and walked back, thinking in his mind that he might as well grill a fish from the Taiye Pond, when he suddenly heard the sound of a conversation not far away.Liu Fu was overjoyed, thinking that since he could chat, it meant that there were at least two people, and he happened to send one to lead him back to the bedroom, and let the other get him something to eat, so he walked towards them.

As he got closer, his voice became clear, it was two court ladies talking in a low voice.Liu Fu was originally not interested in their secret words, but from their conversation, he heard "Your Majesty" and couldn't help but stop in his tracks.

Girl Huaichun is always human, he thought happily, anyway, there are still many vacant places in the harem, if Luo Hua has intentions, his Liu Shui can't be too ruthless.

Thinking of this, Liu Fu couldn't help but a faint smile appeared on his face, but when he heard what they said clearly, the smile froze on his face.

"No way, both the king and the prime minister are men, how could they—"

"It has been spread all over the palace, so it can't be fake."

"But the king has just accepted two concubines, and not long after entering the palace, they are all named Jieyu."

"Don't tell me, I heard from the younger sister who served Xiao Jieyu that the king took Jieyu to the inner treasury to choose gifts. I didn't expect that the things that Jieyu chose were finally given to the prime minister by the king. This time the prime minister went Zhao Guo, the king personally took it back!"

"Ah... In other words, I also feel that every time the prime minister enters the palace to see the king, the way the king holds his hand and talks is more affectionate than being with Jieyu..."

"Also, I heard that the king and the prime minister will feed each other when they eat in private."

"Ah yo," a court lady called out in a low voice, "Prime Minister Wang is such a vicious person..."

"And he's still old. I heard that the former emperors would also keep male pets, but they were all young and beautiful. The prime minister is so much older than the king. Why does the king like the prime minister?"

"Your Majesty doesn't like the prime minister, so why don't you like your sister?"

The other spat, followed by a suppressed laugh.

Liu Fu stood motionless and listened to their conversation verbatim, only to feel the blood rushing from his body to the top of his head, and he trembled with anger for a moment.Regardless of whether it would scare the two of them, he said abruptly: "Speaking of the king and the prime minister indiscriminately, do you want to die?"

There was silence for a moment, and then there were two screams.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, forgive me!" The two maids parted the bushes, threw themselves at Liu Fu's feet and knelt down.

Liu Fu gritted his teeth, suppressed his anger and asked, "Speak! Where did you hear these words?"

The two looked at each other for a while, and one of them said: "Your Majesty, servants...you heard the same from everywhere in the palace."

Liu Fu's anger rushed up, and he almost couldn't suppress it. He clenched his fists, "Everyone is saying that, okay, okay... Do you know what crime it is to slander a minister!"

The two kowtowed in a hurry, and cried: "My lord, spare my life! This servant is convicted, my lord, spare my life!"

Seeing that they were so frightened, Liu Fu's anger subsided a bit. After thinking about it for a while, he knew that this matter was far from simple, and punishing these two people was of no use at all. The source of the rumors can be dealt with lightly."

Liu Fu didn't eat supper at night, so he brought the two of them into the bedroom, called the inner servant, and ordered him to investigate the matter overnight. All the people in the palace, regardless of whether they had rested or not, would all get up and cooperate with the investigation.For a while, the palace gradually lit up, the lights were brightly lit, and there were endless noises as people walked back and forth.

Liu Fu stayed up all night, sitting on the stone steps outside the bedroom, rubbing King Zhao's luminous pearl in his hand, and gradually calmed down.If there is such a big commotion in the palace, the courtiers will know it early the next morning. Although the rumor about him and Wang Sheng may have been known to the whole palace and even spread outside the palace, he must not take the initiative. publicity.Just now he ordered people to conduct a thorough investigation all night in a fit of anger, but now that he thought about it, it was a bit wrong, he could only claim that it was a theft in the palace, which caused such an uproar.

He was so angry that he didn't have time to think about it, but now he knew that it must be the Liu clan who spread the rumor.From the rumors that he and Wang Sheng fed each other, it can be seen that Xiaolun should be the instigator of it, because at that time, except for his cronies, only Xiaolun was there, and his scene was originally to do it. Showed it to her alone.As for whether Xiao Shi participated in it, it is hard to say now.

In short, Xiaolun must be involved in this matter, but I don't know how many people participated in the entire Liu clan, and what role they played.He beat them up in the name of hunting before, but he didn't expect that there were still people who didn't have long eyes.Liu Fu punched the stone steps and narrowed his eyes—is it a good opportunity to rectify the clan?

No, no.He stood up and paced back and forth irritably. It would be easy for them to falsely accuse Wang Sheng of treason, but if they falsely accused Wang Sheng of treason and sat down according to the law, he would have the basis to deal with these people.But now they are falsely accusing Wang Sheng... He has nothing to do with such a matter that cannot be put on the table.

Even if he wanted to use this to make trouble, he couldn't write in the imperial edict, "Falsely accuse the prime minister of having an affair with the king", right?Of course he can be vague in the edict, but once the edict is issued, everyone knows what is going on, and where will Wang Sheng be placed?As the head of a hundred bureaucrats, Wang Sheng has such dirty water on his body, how will he behave in the court in the future?

Liu Fu thought about it, but it was difficult for him to make a decision on this matter, and he couldn't find Wang Sheng to discuss it as usual, so he ordered Xuan Kuai Mao to enter the palace early in the morning.Kuai Mao saw things very clearly, so he discussed with him and said that he couldn't discuss some solutions.

He only slept for two hours in three days, washed his face with cold water, and entered Zichen Palace with two dark circles under his eyes.Kuai Mao was already waiting here, Liu Fu excused him, sat down and said with a smile: "Mr. Kuai's prediction was right, the country of Zhao was in chaos, and the prime minister's trip was quite fruitful. It's just that you and I didn't make a bet at that time. , but it's a pity."

Kuai Maodao: "The minister intends to remind the king to prepare early, not for rewards, why is it a pity?"

"Doctor Kuai is really quick to speak." Liu Fu laughed, poured a cup of tea to his lips, and suddenly asked casually, "Doctor Kuai came from outside the palace. Have you ever heard of anything new?"

"Your Majesty is saying that there are rumors about your Majesty and the prime minister?"

Liu Fu almost sprayed the tea he just drank back into his mouth.He had just finished complimenting Kuai Mao on his quick words, and he went straight in like this, which really caught him off guard. "Deyin," Liu Fu put the teacup back on the case, put his hands into his sleeves, moved closer, and kindly recalled his watch words, "Since you have heard about it, I won't go around in circles. Who did it, I have a general idea in my heart, how do you think to deal with this matter?"

"This is the king's family business."

Liu Fu was puzzled, "After all, this matter involves the prime minister, how can it be regarded as my family matter?"

Kuai Mao shook his head, leaned back a little, raised his face, and said: "This is the king's family business."

Liu Fu stared anxiously at his face full of inscrutable words, and felt an urge to throw a teacup on his face.He sighed impatiently, and was about to speak, when his thoughts suddenly changed, and his anger subsided, "Did Deyin teach me not to go through the outer court, but to deal with it directly in the inner court as a family matter?"

"Exactly."

Liu Fu nodded, pondered for a moment and then asked: "Then how should we deal with it?"

Kuai Mao didn't answer, he raised his teacup and took a sip, but didn't put it down, but closed his eyes and continued to drink carefully.Liu Fu wanted to stand up several times, but he put his hand down as soon as he put his hand on the pad. With Kuai Mao's character, he was so desperate to push him that it was possible for him to walk away.At the moment, he could only wait for him to speak. Liu Fu lost his temper after being tortured by him. He could only touch his forehead and sigh, patiently waiting for him to finish drinking.

Kuai Mao put down his teacup and asked, "Does Your Majesty have any plans in mind?"

Liu Fu was taken aback for a moment, only then did he realize that Kuai Mao didn't speak just now, he didn't mean to play tricks on him, but to leave time for him to think about it.Liu Fu stared at the bottom of the cup, unconsciously rubbing the corner of the table with his thumb, and after thinking for a moment, he slowly said: "I think this matter cannot be left alone, but if it is dealt with too severely, it seems to be trying to cover up."

"Your Majesty, the key to dealing with this matter is that no one else should be involved." Kuai Mao approached and said in a low voice: "Once the investigation is clear, just pick those melons, and you can't touch the vines."

Liu Fu was guessed by him that he wanted to take this opportunity to attack the clan, so he sighed, "I don't need Deyin to persuade me about this, I also know that the timing is not good this time."

"In this way, the weight of the disposal can be controlled by the king."

Liu Fu nodded, stroking his chin thoughtfully.

"Your Majesty, the Prime Minister is asking to see you." The palace man said suddenly from the side.

Panic flashed in Liu Fu's eyes. Although the rumors this time were absurd, they were spread between him and Wang Sheng after all, so he really couldn't figure out how to face Wang Sheng for a while.But if he survived the first day of the junior high school but not the fifteenth day, he should meet again. He turned to Kuai Mao and said, "I'll think about this matter carefully. Deyin should step down first."

Kuai Mao took the order to retreat, Liu Fu cleared his throat and said, "Call the Prime Minister to come in."

Wang Sheng came in from the main entrance with something in his hand. Liu Fu had known him for many years and had never felt any difference, but now he suddenly felt that Wang Sheng today was like a piece of red-hot iron, and his eyelids became hot just by looking at it. , couldn't help but slightly staggered his sight.He looked at Wang Sheng's chin and said, "Isn't Jing Huan still sick? What's the purpose of coming into the palace?"

Wang Sheng knelt down and said, "My Majesty, please take back the reward I gave you yesterday."

Only then did Liu Fu notice that what Wang Sheng was holding in his hands were the foot stove and ear warmers that were given to him just yesterday, and he frowned and said, "Is there any reason to take back what I gave away? It's just two small things. Jing Huan put it away."

Wang Sheng only knelt deeper, bowed his head and said, "These personal things, please take them back, so as not to give others a handle."

Liu Fu looked down at him for a while, then suddenly bent down and grabbed Wang Sheng's arm, pulling him up from the ground involuntarily, "Jing Huan, have you also heard that rumor?"

Wang Sheng was picked up by him, the foot stove fell on the ground, rolled twice, and made a series of crisp sounds.In this sound, Liu Fu heard him answer: "Yes."

"Why does Jing Huan do this?" Liu Fu was a little surprised. Based on his understanding of Wang Sheng, even if Wang Sheng was falsely accused of usurping power and treason, as long as he didn't believe it, he would never take it to heart.Although the rumors this time were vicious, the crime he was given would never be greater than treason. There were many impeachments against him before, but I don't know why Wang Sheng cares so much about it this time.He patted Wang Sheng's hand and persuaded: "I know you cherish feathers, don't worry, I have sent someone to investigate, and I will give you an explanation. You can keep your things, it's too cold this winter, you can use them .”

Wang Sheng sighed, "Your Majesty is like this, how can the rumors be stopped?"

"Ha!" Liu Fu looked up and laughed, "Jing Huan, even you have heard of it, isn't the rumor spreading widely? It's pointless to block their mouths, so let them spread the word! You are Zuo The meritorious people who founded my country have worked so hard. I will reward you not only this time, but also in the future! You don’t have to avoid suspicion, and you don’t have to return my rewards, just accept them generously. If there are people who will record history in the future If you dare to write the word "Ning Xing" on you, I will kill one of them." He said, took the pair of ear warmers from Wang Sheng's hand, and put them on his head, "Nothing is worth talking about. You My monarch and my subjects have a clear conscience, why should I care about other things?"

He looked into Wang Sheng's eyes with a smile, but Wang Sheng suddenly lowered his head, avoiding his sight.Although it passed by in a flash, Liu Fu actually saw a panicked expression on his face, this was the first time he saw such an expression on Wang Sheng's face.Surprised, he asked, "Jing Huan, what's wrong?"

Wang Sheng also seemed to know that he had lost his composure, so he withdrew his hand and knelt down, resting his forehead on the floor tiles, prostrated himself on the ground and said, "Your servant is greatly favored, you are in a high position, you must guard your distinction as a minister, and you will never fail the king."

Liu Fu didn't understand, so he thought to himself, since you can't do something rebellious, what's the difference between being a minister or not.He helped Wang Sheng up, and seeing that he was standing a little far away from him, he naturally took a step forward and stood closer to him. After a while, he suddenly smiled, "Jing Huan, they are really right about one thing." .”

"I just really like holding your hand." He took Wang Sheng's hand and said, "I don't know why, as long as I hold it, I feel very at ease in my heart. I feel that there is nothing I can't do in this world." It's over."
