From his own point of view, the crown prince thought very well about Wanyan Kang.The patron and a group of people around him thought from another angle that he wanted to usurp the throne and stand on his own.The combination of the two cannot completely cover all the purposes of Wanyan Kang.None of them knew that Wanyan Kang was not from the Wanyan family.The lack of information caused a lot of loopholes in their judgments.

In Wanyankang's heart, he really wanted to help the prince one last time.The prince's debilitating health saved him from the battle between heaven and man to "overthrow the elder brother who was good to him with his own hands".Even if the prince is helped to the throne, the prince will not live long.The day the crown prince died was the time when Wan Yankang took off his vest.Uncle Cheap himself has exhausted the feelings he cultivated since he was a child in the "random life" again and again.

Wan Yankang made a ruthless move - take down Zhongdu and ask the benefactor to return.

Lord, does he dare?

Obviously he didn't dare, even if he dared at first, after Wanyan Kang beheaded Mo Nian and committed his loyalty, he would become afraid again.Based on Wanyan Kang's understanding of the benefactor, if he borrowed eight guts, he would never come back.Beheaded and wiped out his loyalty, received all the respect of Zhongdu scholars and common people, before sending the letter to the king, the gold master didn't even issue an order to reprimand him.Now the cheap uncle only dared to scold him in his heart, he didn't even call him to Bianjing to question his crimes, but instead appointed him as the Marshal of the capital, taking over part of the duties of the martyred Prime Minister Wan Yan Chenghui.

Coward!Shocked!

This counselment at the critical moment helped him again.If he is held accountable again at this time, then with Wanyan Kang's current reputation and reputation, the patron will be confirmed as the "faint lord".Once counseled, it seems that he has a bit of "uplifting" appearance of "knowing the mistakes and correcting them", "knowing the shame and then being brave".People in the world always pay more respect to the emperor, and are willing to think of him for the better.Wanyan Kang was put on the wall by a coward.

The government and the public looked at Zhongdu, waiting for Wanyankang's reply.At this time, Wanyan Kang was being besieged by a group of women soldiers.The benefactor's concubines are all his little aunts, and Duobaozhen is his cousin. They all watched him grow up, recalling that they were almost thrown away in Zhongdu by smearing him for his loyalty. If Kang Hui was not rescued in time, he would fall into the hands of the Mongols, and all of them were terrified.Crying and wiping away tears, and not caring about avoiding suspicion, she refused to let him go!

It's not to stop the imperial court's order, but to even let him leave the palace.Everyone surrounded him with pear blossoms and rain, "Hudu, don't go!", "I can't even sleep well if you leave.", "Your Majesty abandoning me is like this, are you so cruel?" ?”

Wanyankang, front, back, left, and right, there is no place to plug in, and the ground is too hard to escape, the only way out is to run lightly.There are countless affairs outside waiting for him to take over, and the benefits of beheading, killing, and being loyal have been reaped, and he has to clean up the rest of the mess.To obliterate the affairs under the loyal post, the cronies left behind, the affairs left by Wan Yan Chenghui who died for the country... and so on.

Just when he was about to "fly" out of the encirclement, Bianjing's new edict came - promotion.It is still to transfer him to the northeast and urge him to go north.Shaanxi is still too close to Henan. Under Heshi Liezhi's instigation, the gold master planned to transfer him to Shangjing Road, a little farther away from Bianjing, so as not to threaten his life.

There was a momentary pause in the crying, and the concubines, who had been hiding behind the bead curtain, rushed out and asked the envoy, "How will your Majesty arrange us?"

The messenger said: "Your Majesty, don't be impatient. Your Majesty will make arrangements."

That is, I didn't expect it at all?The disappointment on the faces of the concubines grew stronger, and they couldn't cry anymore.Only Duobao can still speak: "Father is in a hurry to tour the south, and I have no complaints when he summons the eldest brother. Even today, is he not even willing to ask a question from his own flesh and blood?" The voice was so shrill. Ji, hovered in the hall for a long time, and scattered outside the hall.

The messenger was silent.

Duobao took a deep breath, nodded and said, "Okay, I see."

Wan Yankang said: "Sister, don't worry, uncle will be back."

The envoy was surprised: "Marshal?"

Wan Yankang smiled and said, "Wait a moment, bring my playbook over there."

Sweat broke out on the messenger's forehead, he didn't want to agree, but he had to agree, so he choked and nodded.

Since then, Wanyankang and the benefactor began to speak from a distance.First thank you, and then ask the benefactor when he will return.Apart from the notebooks brought along by the envoy of the Xuanzhao, Wanyan Kang’s daily routine is to wake up every morning and write a sincere letter of love. We are crying and waiting for you to come back, I can't bear it anymore.Furthermore, the ancestral mausoleums are all in Zhongdu. After the Mongol soldiers retreated, I sent people to renovate them. Why don’t you come and offer a sacrifice?You have always loved sister the most, she is also in Zhongdu, are you really not coming back?The family members of many ministers are also here, you are considerate and sympathetic to the big guys.Then, the law and order in the central capital is very good, the Mongolian soldiers have retreated, you can come back, it is very safe.

God knows where he got so much emotion to write about!

The benefactor read two letters at the beginning, his face was flushed red, and he knew in his heart that it would be a shame to flee like this and throw away the ancestral graves.When I got to the back, I was so ashamed that I simply didn't look at it.He only issued an edict, praised Wanyan Kang greatly, and sent Wanyan Chenglin, who was old with Wanyan Kang, as an envoy, to meet Wanyan Kang in Zhongdu, to test his intentions, and to find a way to make him shut up, and get out of here quickly. Go to Shangjing Road to enjoy the snow and ice sculptures.

****************

Wanyan Chenglin is a loyal person, he has never been left behind during his journey, escorting the benefactor to Bianjing safely, and now he is more and more trusted.In order to escort the benefactor, he failed to bring his own wife and children with him, and now they are being protected and taken care of by Wanyan Kang.

When we met again, Wanyan Chenglin was also a little embarrassed, but he insisted on proclaiming the imperial edict, and then tried to have a secret talk with Wanyan Kang.Wan Yankang knew what he meant, and he was very sincere. When there were only two people left, he asked without waiting for Wan Yan Chenglin, "When will you come back? The palaces and walls have been repaired, and the Mongols have retreated. The hearts of the people are shaken!"

Wanyan Chenglin said in a low voice: "You are too sincere, Bianjing suspects you. It is not a good thing for you to kill ministers and disobey the edict."

Wan Yankang said with a wry smile: "At that time, if Mo Yanzhong was still alive, the soldiers and civilians would have been disappointed with the court. Even if he was escorted to Bianjing for questioning, it would not be as fast as beheading him at that time to calm people's hearts."

"That's the reason, it's hard for you to do it." Wanyan Chenglin believed Wanyan Kang's words.

Wan Yankang said: "What's the matter? I'm just doing my best. As long as uncle and brother come back, the country will be stable, and no matter how hard we try to govern, we can't be revived, right?" He glanced at Wanyan Chenglin's face, "Isn't it possible? Uncle won’t come back by himself? Can big brother come back?”

Wanyan Chenglin felt sour, he thought that he had no good strategy to teach him, but he didn't know what to do, so he had to persuade him: "You might as well set off for now, to clear up your Majesty's doubts, and then try to persuade him."

Wanyan Kang was silent for a while, and asked in a low voice: "Do you believe me when I say this?"

Wanyan Chenglin had a lot of words to persuade him, such as loyalty, filial piety and righteousness, but he swallowed them all at the roadside.After listening to Yan Kang said resolutely: "Take a word and go back. If he comes back, I'll go! There must be someone who has weight in China, otherwise, the country will fall." Let's make it the last effort, if the benefactor returns Now, Wanyan Kang would rather take off his vest and not take a single thread away, start from scratch, and rebel!

Wanyan Chenglin said: "Why are you talking to him like this? There are many people in Bianjing who hate you."

Wanyan Kang raised his head and said, "Have I ever been afraid of people?"

Seeing that persuasion was useless, Wanyan Chenglin also admired him in his heart for being so daring to speak and act, so he stopped persuading, and only said: "I will find a way to persuade the Holy One, whether it will succeed or not, I can't guarantee it." Yan Kang said: "Bring me another brochure, if he doesn't read it, you can pass it on."

Wanyan Chenglin asked, "What's the matter?"

"Since our army is not considered a big defeat, why bother to ask for peace? We have always collected annual tribute, but actually paying annual tribute to others, is it ashamed or not? Just break the contract."

He said this lightly, and Wanyan Chenglin's heart jumped when he heard it: "How can this be done? Xinyi..."

Wanyan Kang rolled his eyes: "Is the alliance under the city counted as faith? Can't the Holy One cheer up?"

It seems impossible.Wanyan Chenglin was loyal, and he had to admit that His Majesty the Emperor lacked vigor.He knew in his heart that it would be as difficult as going to heaven for the patron to return to the central capital.Even if Wanyan Kang was not suspected, after Temujin's attack, the benefactor would not dare to come back.The more I thought about it, the more frustrated I became, and I thought: I will only be my loyal minister, and I will always live up to my conscience.

But what Wan Yankang was thinking in his heart was: I will be a loyal minister for the prince again, and my conscience will be disturbed after I am exempted from teaching.

For some reason, some of the conversation between Wanyan Kang and Wanyan Chenglin leaked out through various channels.In addition, before Wanyan Kang kept urging the patron to return to the north, but the patron refused, rumors spread all over the place, saying that it was wrong for Wanyan Kang to be young and aggressive at killing ministers, but more people felt that the patron was really wrong as the king of a country. Competent.

Wan Yankang once again put on the table, if the benefactor is not suitable for retirement because of the northern climate, please let the prince come back to calm people's minds.

Undoubtedly, this memorial was withheld again.The benefactor didn't say he agreed or disagreed, but he issued another order, forcing Wan Yankang to leave for the north—if he didn't leave, the entire Shangjing Road would be rebellious!If you vote for Temujin, it will send new troops to Temujin, and if you wrestle with Temujin, you will really lose your pants.

This order is: order Shangjing Road, two Jurchen households and one Khitan family to prevent the Khitan people from defecting to Mongolia.

This is clearly treating people as prisoners!We did not do this when we annexed the Liao Kingdom and our morale was like a rainbow, and we did not engage in national integration when we were strong.This is almost over, think about doing this again?If you don't rebel, you will be forced to rebel!Especially since you, the emperor, are still running away!You are thousands of miles away from Shangjing Road, and you don’t even have the psychological pressure on Shangjing Road. Are you still guarding against a ball? !

Wan Yankang's mind is very clear, he has no hope of asking the patron to return to this matter, so he can grind his teeth regardless of success or failure, and even glad that the patron does not come back.You can't let the Khitan people on Shangjing Road vote for Temujin, and you can't grind your teeth to win the gold master. You have to go there yourself and control the matter in your own hands.By force, prohibit Shangjing Road from carrying out the order of the patron!
