The protagonist is super fierce [Quick Transmigration]
Chapter 23 The King of Subjugation (6)
Yonglehou Mansion.
Ever since the emperor came to see Lin Dao in person and fully expressed his importance to him, Lin Dao's life has been much easier.However, in two or three days, the person has recovered enough to get out of bed and walk around.
At dusk that day, Lin Dao was about to feed himself when he suddenly heard a servant report that the emperor had arrived.Although he didn't know why the emperor chose this meal, Lin Dao didn't dare to complain, he hurriedly dressed up and went out to greet him, and when he saw the bright yellow figure, he fell down and bowed down: "My humble minister, see Your Majesty! "
"Marquis Yongle is ill, so there is no need to be polite!" Seeing Lin Dao bowing down, Xie Mao immediately stepped forward to help him up.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Lin Dao got up and broke free from Xie Mao without a trace, "Your Majesty is lenient, and I am deeply grateful. It's just that etiquette cannot be broken, and I really dare not be rude to Your Majesty!"
Seeing Lin Dao insisting, Xie Mao knew that because of his embarrassing status, he was afraid of being caught talking, so he was so cautious, and he didn't bother to persuade him.
After the two entered the door, Lin Dao saw a table of dishes, so he had to ask awkwardly: "Can your majesty have dinner? If not, why don't you use some at my minister's place?"
As soon as Lin Dao finished saying this, he immediately wanted to slap himself: Not to mention whether this table of simple tea and light food was qualified to entertain the emperor, but the emperor did not dislike it. How could the emperor eat food of unknown origin?What if it is poisoned!
Without waiting for Lin Dao to take back his preface, Xie Mao readily agreed: "Since Marquis Yongle has kindly invited you, I will be disrespectful!" After speaking, he ignored the persuasion of his subordinates, and forcefully pushed Lin Dao on the chair, So he sat on the head by himself.
Xie Mao looked at the dishes on the table, frowned immediately, and said dissatisfiedly to the servants who were serving him: "You give these to Master Hou every day? Feed Master Hou like a rabbit!"
After hearing this, Lin Dao stood up from his seat, endured the indescribable embarrassment, and reluctantly explained: "Your Majesty, you can't blame them for this matter! The minister is still ill, so the diet is a bit lighter—it's better to let people withdraw Get off this table and bring up something that suits your taste..."
As Lin Dao spoke, he stared at Xie Mao, expecting him to flick his sleeves impatiently and said: "In this case, I will not disturb Yong Le Hou to eat!" Then he hurried away.
It's a pity that things are destined not to develop according to Lin Dao's expectations. After hearing Lin Dao's explanation, Xie Mao's face suddenly turned pale, and he waved his hand generously and said: "No need to change, I will follow Yongle Hou to change the taste today, which happens to be the dishes in the palace. I'm tired of eating too!"
Lin Dao almost fell down when he heard this, and looked at Xie Mao very sadly: Your Majesty, you really don't have to force yourself so much!There are also such things as getting tired of the dishes, so that the royal chefs in the palace will hang themselves in shame if they hear about it!
Although he was roaring in his heart, Lin Dao could only sit down patiently and eat with Xie Mao.
However, something even more unbearable happened to him. Seeing that Lin Dao specially picked some vegetables and mushrooms to eat, Xie Mao frowned and picked up several meat dishes with chopsticks for him, and ordered unquestionably: "Eat them all! You still have to eat them!" When you are sick, how can you just eat vegetarian dishes! Are you really feeding yourself like a rabbit?"
Lin Dao's face immediately turned green when he saw the sharp meat piled up in the bowl, and he pinched his nose in anger and said thank you: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
However, the more inhumane thing was yet to come, Xie Mao immediately picked up all the remaining vegetarian dishes on the plate and put them into his own bowl, leaving only the meat dishes for Lin Dao.
Lin Dao: ... What's so good about being a human being? It's not as good as a rabbit. At least there's grass to eat!
So, during the whole meal, Lin Dao ate Xie Mao's meat without taste, and watched those green cuties disappear into the emperor's big hateful mouth, not to mention the resentment in his eyes .
Xie Mao was in a very happy mood, although he ate a stomach full of vegetables that he didn't like, but the feeling of teasing Yong Lehou was so refreshing that he ignored that little inadequacy.
Xie Mao didn't know why all the bad things came when he met Yonglehou. It was probably because Lin Dao's image was so perfect that people always wanted to see him go crazy.
After finally finishing their meal, the servant removed the cups and trays and brought tea to the two of them.Lin Daoru was pardoned, he didn't care about greeting the emperor, he quickly picked up the tea bowl and took a sip of tea to dilute the greasy taste in his mouth, and then he felt his whole body came alive.Seeing his appearance, Xie Mao secretly laughed in his heart.
After a few more gossips, Lin Dao looked at the sky, and couldn't help but say for the first time: "Your Majesty, it's getting late, do you want to move your palace..."
Lin Dao didn't want to be so rude, but today's emperor made him a little overwhelmed, and he was afraid that something would happen to him, so he hurriedly sent him away.
Xie Mao heard Lin Dao's words, and immediately said with resentment: "Ai Qing, is this going to drive me away?" Lin Dao was frightened when he heard this, and immediately expressed his loyalty: "How dare a humble minister!"
Xie Mao heard this and immediately hit the snake with a stick and said: "My harem is empty, and it will be deserted when I go back. I might as well stay in the Hou's mansion tonight and sleep with Yonglehou!"
Lin Dao: ... After grabbing food with me, are you finally going to start grabbing a bed with me again?
Hearing these words, Lin Dao felt very bad, and hurriedly said in fear and fear: "How can a humble minister get this honor?" No, he doesn't want the honor of sleeping with the emperor at all, please give it to someone else. Thanks!
If it wasn't for his lack of guts, Lin Dao wanted to grab Xie Mao's collar and yell: "There are so many courtiers who have made great contributions, why don't you go sleep with them, what are you doing with me?"We really don't know each other well!
It's a pity that if Xie Mao was willing to listen to people's persuasion, he wouldn't be Xie Mao. Lin Dao tried several ways to tactfully persuade the emperor to dismiss this absurd idea, but he simply and rudely blocked him back pretending not to understand.
Lin Dao, who finally lay on the same bed with the emperor, was still heartbroken. He felt that tonight was destined to be a sleepless night.
Unlike Lin Dao's uneasiness, probably because people are more vulnerable in the quiet darkness, Xie Mao couldn't help but think of the day's events again, and couldn't help but sighed upset.
"What's bothering your Majesty?" Xie Mao's sigh was immediately caught by the sleepless Lin Dao, and he spoke subconsciously.
As soon as Lin Dao said the words, he regretted it immediately: Shouldn't he be pretending to be asleep at this time, why do he take the initiative to go up to him?Can I listen to the emperor's troubles?
It's a pity that it's too late to regret it, probably because Lin Dao was also an emperor, and in a sense he was equal to Xie Mao, his words immediately aroused Xie Mao's desire to talk.
Xie Mao's various abnormal behaviors today are actually not difficult to understand at all: after being pissed off by those rebellious ministers, and then seeing Lin Dao who is understanding, understanding, interesting and respectful, the two will naturally be more favorable in comparison.
Thinking that he was poisoned and assassinated, but he didn't say anything, he just sent someone to tell him secretly, not to embarrass him at all, Xie Mao felt guilty, and his affection for him increased steadily.
The actions of these ministers today also made Xie Mao feel extremely chilled. For the first time, he felt that the emperor was a lonely family, so he had a rare feeling of sympathy for Lin Dao.
Because he had opinions on his courtiers, facing the unanimous desire of some ministers to kill Lin Dao, Xie Mao had a rebellious mentality: Don't you want to harm him?I just want to protect him!You also need to keep him healthy and healthy, so that he can live a long life and die, and you grandchildren will be mad at you!
"...I'm very sad," the emperor's faint voice came into Lin Dao's ears in the darkness where he couldn't see his fingers, "Wu Jun has been with me for so many years. He's carrying my back..."
"...I have just been enthroned, and he dared to withhold the news to me... If everyone learns the same thing, wouldn't I become a deaf and blind person in the long run...People say that the emperor is a loner...Is it because of me? When they become emperors, are they going to separate themselves from me..."
Xie Mao didn't know why he said this to Lin Dao, probably because he was too confused, and Lin Dao was the only one in the world who could listen to him say this - as the emperor, he probably understood his feelings better Bar?
Xie Mao had been rambling on for a long time, until he vomited all the depression in his heart, and after venting, he was ready to fall asleep.
Xie Mao didn't expect Lin Dao to answer him, but Lin Dao said at this moment: "Your Majesty is wrong."
Hearing Lin Dao's words, Xie Mao suddenly sat up, and asked angrily: "I was wrong? What's wrong with me! ——Shouldn't they be promoted to high positions, or should they all be promoted to high positions? "
Xie Mao glared at Lin Dao angrily, which meant that Lin Dao would not give up until he gave him an explanation.Lin Dao sighed secretly, sat up, looked at the emperor in the dark and said, "Your Majesty's mistake is that he didn't regard himself as the emperor, and he didn't treat the ministers as his ministers!"
"What do you mean?" Xie Mao was at a loss. Seeing Lin Dao getting up, he subconsciously stretched out his hand and pushed him back into the quilt: "What are you doing up? Lie down!" He said and lay down as well.
Lin Dao was speechless by the emperor's actions, but the uneasiness in his heart disappeared inexplicably. At this time, the emperor felt like his friend to him, which made him relax unconsciously, so he no longer hesitated to speak What:
"Your Majesty, do you know the difference between an emperor and a general? - There can be tens of thousands of generals, but only one emperor; a general being seized by his subordinates is just a change of commander in an army. Once the emperor is deprived of the throne, the power of a country The country itself will be shaken, and the flames of war will rise everywhere immediately, and the people will be devastated."
"Although the general and his subordinates have a master-slave relationship, in the final analysis they are both the emperor's subjects. Therefore, the general cannot dispose of his subordinates at will, but the emperor...but the emperor can kill his ministers and his ministers have to die. The division of monarchs and ministers is like a natural moat—— Therefore, the general can be approachable, but the emperor must be high."
After Lin Dao finished speaking, he quietly waited for Xie Mao's reaction.After a while, a sigh came from the darkness: "I understand what Marquis Yongle said."
After Xie Mao finished speaking, he was silent for a while, but he couldn't help but said: "It's just that many of them have known me for nearly ten years, and they have deep feelings. I'm not a hard-hearted person, how can I be unkind?"
Lin Dao saw that the emperor still couldn't turn the corner, so he had no choice but to continue to take medicine and said, "Your Majesty, what kind of courtier is more likely to rebel?"
Hearing this, Xie Mao had a bad premonition, but he still bit the bullet and said, "I would like to hear more about it!"
"It's just what His Majesty just said, the courtiers who have known His Majesty for nearly ten years and have deep feelings are most likely to be rebellious!" Lin Dao unceremoniously punctured the emperor's fantasy.
"What?" Xie Mao was taken aback, and couldn't help but want to reprimand "a bunch of nonsense", but after thinking about it, he endured it, and said reluctantly, "Why is this?"
Lin Dao ignored Xie Mao's attitude, and said without any scruples: "Because they followed His Majesty when He was still in his infancy, and lacked awe of His Majesty-if the corporal chief can be the emperor, why can't the pawns not? Your Majesty respects others, It is not difficult to understand the minds of these people!"
Hearing these words, Xie Mao felt as if a thunder had exploded above his head. He subconsciously wanted to refute Lin Dao's words, but when he opened his mouth, he was speechless.
Thinking of the important minister whom he relied on as his confidant, maybe he was thinking of rebelling against him, Xie Mao only felt a burst of panic, and couldn't help asking: "My most trusted confidant is actually the least reliable, what should I do?"
Lin Dao subconsciously wanted to reply, remembering that it is a big taboo to talk lightly and deeply, and he had already said too much today, so he said perfunctorily: "Your Majesty is wise and powerful, I am afraid that he has already made a plan in his heart, why do you need to be a humble minister? "
Xie Mao glared dissatisfiedly at Lin Dao who was sloppy at the critical moment. Although it was too dark to see, Lin Dao accurately received the emperor's dissatisfied gaze, and he couldn't help feeling a little guilty.
The emperor glared at Lin Dao, then looked away, and sighed: "The emperors throughout the ages, the first thing they do after they become emperors is to withdraw their military power. For this reason, they willfully slaughter heroes. I don't want to be a heartless person, and I don't want to be cold." broke the hearts of the soldiers..."
"Your Majesty is wrong!" Lin Dao couldn't help but said immediately after hearing this: "Military power must belong to the monarch: if the monarch does not have military power, the country will be unstable, and if the country is unstable, domestic rebellions will occur frequently, and rebellions will occur frequently. The people will suffer. How can the stability of the whole country depend on the loyalty of the ministers!"
Lin Dao knew that Xie Mao didn't understand, but he couldn't overcome the hurdle in his heart, so he stabbed him in the heart again: "Since the incident of General Wu, does your majesty still dare to believe in the loyalty of your subjects?"
Hearing this, Xie Mao subconsciously wanted to yell "presumptuous", but the words turned around in his mouth, but he still didn't say it.
Lin Dao didn't hear Xie Mao scolding him, so he continued, "Your Majesty, you don't have to worry about dissatisfaction with your subordinates if you have no objection to withdrawing troops.
"Nowadays the world has been settled, and military power is useless in your hands. It is useless to provoke the emperor's suspicion except to foster the heart of disobedience-the minister said something disrespectful: even if the generals with heavy soldiers in their hands are loyal, it is difficult to protect them." Someone under his command wants to fight for the merit of being a dragon, His Majesty must guard against this!"
"Your Majesty doesn't want to kill people. You can imitate the old story of releasing military power with a cup of wine in the Song Dynasty. You can confer titles and rewards to protect their family's prosperity and wealth. Then everyone will be happy——If your majesty does not accept military power, and someone really raises the flag to rebel, your majesty will kill you." He won't kill? If he kills, how can His Majesty bear it; if he doesn't kill, how can His Majesty convince the public?"
"If this person died at the hands of His Majesty, wouldn't it be the result of His Majesty's connivance?" Lin Dao finally ended his speech with this very offensive sentence.
Xie Mao felt very complicated when he heard Lin Dao's more and more explicit words.He felt that Lin Dao was really a miraculous person. Not only did he have no resentment when he took the throne from him, but he also accepted his status as a courtier naturally; He will punish him himself.
He felt that he was also very strange, not only caring for the former emperor, but even letting go of his guard, eating at the same table and sharing the same bed with him, not at all worried that he would harbor resentment and secretly kill him.
Xie Mao was silent for a long time, and then said without any deterrent effect: "Lin Dao, you are so bold!"
"Your Majesty, please forgive me for being presumptuous!" Lin Dao said immediately, but he didn't get up to plead guilty.
"That's all!" Xie Mao didn't take it seriously, and continued without looking outside: "According to your opinion, what should be done to take back the military power?"
Lin Dao didn't want to talk too much about this kind of thing, but when Xie Maoniu's temper came up, he would not let him go easily. He insisted on asking him to come up with a charter. Choose a trustworthy minister to discuss, and ask him to take the lead in persuading all the ministers to submit the military power, and then His Majesty will approve his performance, and then give him a generous reward to appease him..."
Ever since the emperor came to see Lin Dao in person and fully expressed his importance to him, Lin Dao's life has been much easier.However, in two or three days, the person has recovered enough to get out of bed and walk around.
At dusk that day, Lin Dao was about to feed himself when he suddenly heard a servant report that the emperor had arrived.Although he didn't know why the emperor chose this meal, Lin Dao didn't dare to complain, he hurriedly dressed up and went out to greet him, and when he saw the bright yellow figure, he fell down and bowed down: "My humble minister, see Your Majesty!
