Chapter 262: Zhang Rang's Evil Heart
A few days later, Luoyang Wende Hall.
Emperor Han Ling, who was dressed in a dragon robe, seemed to have a dark face, and the announcement in his ear was particularly harsh.
Wang Yue hadn't contacted him for several months, and Emperor Han Ling knew Wang Yue's temperament very well, although he was a peerless hero, he would not leave his post without saying a word.
Wang Yue must have had an accident. A month after Wang Yue lost contact with Emperor Han Ling, Emperor Han Ling immediately reacted.
After losing Wang Yue, Emperor Ling of Han knew that in this palace, there was no credible person except Wang Yue. He even sent soldiers to find Wang Yue, but it was difficult to prepare.
Palace guards? Emperor Han Ling knew very well that these guards didn't know how much little Zhang Rang's eyeliner was placed. Wang Yue's disappearance, Emperor Ling of Han had a particularly strong feeling that this matter had something to do with Zhang Rang. Therefore, it was impossible for Emperor Han Ling to send the guards in the palace to find it.
Wang Yue's disappearance means that Emperor Han Ling's hard-won 'eyes' are gone, and he has once again become a blind emperor.
"Holy Lord, the old slave has something to do. Holy? Holy? ”
Emperor Han Ling was still thinking about how to find Wang Yue in his mind, but he didn't see it at all, Zhang Rang was already kneeling under the palace.
"Oh, Father. Tell me what you have to play, I'm listening. ”
Although Emperor Han Ling still called Zhang Rang a father, the two already had a separation, and once a person has a separation, it will be difficult to repair. Emperor Han Ling's father screamed without the slightest emotion in his life, and he was very impatient with Zhang Rang's tone.
"The Holy One is not in good shape? If this is the case, it is better for the saint to retreat from the dynasty first, and after the dragon body recovers its essence, then go to the court to manage the social power. ”
"No, I don't. I'm fine, I don't need to worry about my father. Go ahead. ”
When Zhang Rang said the four words of the dragon's poor body, Emperor Han Ling's eyes suddenly emitted a burst of fine light, Emperor Han Lingdi narrowed his eyes, his eyes were like knives, he sat on the dragon chair condescendingly, and said coldly.
"That's right. The old slave played. I heard that the newly appointed Hedong Taishou, Wen Han, Wen Bufan, after doing this Hedong Taishou, did not build anything, neglected political affairs, only cared about their own fun, just a few days ago in office, and competed with the local wealthy Wei clan in Anyi for women.
Since he took office, he has not taken the initiative to send troops to annihilate the rebellion around Hedong, forgetting that he has the imperial order. The old slave felt that this Wen Han was not worthy of being the Taishou of Hedong. ”
"What Lord Zhang said is very true, and the minister has also heard a lot of rumors that Wen Bufan neglects political affairs and only cares about fun. Hedong is the lifeblood of the place, leave it to this person to take care of, I am afraid that Hedong will only become more and more chaotic. The minister also felt that Wen Bufan was not worthy of being the guard of Hedong. ”
"That's right. The ministers also unanimously agreed that Wen Bufan's ability was shallow and he was not up to the task. I beg the Holy Majesty to decree that this person be transferred out of Hedong. ”
As soon as Zhang Rang's words fell, many ministers came out one after another to impeach Wen Han. Emperor Han Ling's brows furrowed deeper and deeper, and his eyes looking at Zhang Rang became colder and colder.
Okay, this old dog, not only did he attack my great sword master, but now even the eighth lieutenant of the West Garden, whom I personally sealed, also wants to get rid of. This extraordinary article has been slandered by you and others many times, do you really think that I have no queen Wang Yue, my eyes are blind, and I will obey you as I did in the past!?
Emperor Han Ling's breathing suddenly became rapid, his face was furious, and he slammed the dragon chair, which suddenly shocked the ministers who impeached Wen Han in the palace, and their hearts jumped.
"There is no basis for your words, you wait, but there is evidence?"
"In front of the saint, the old slave didn't dare to make a mistake, of course, there was enough evidence to dare to tell the saint. These are all letters sent by the clans from all over Hedong to the old slaves. There are a lot of evil deeds written in it. ”
"Your Majesty, your ministers have also received letters about Wen Bufan's evil deeds."
Zhang Rang glanced at Zhao Zhong beside Emperor Ling of Han, Zhao Zhong comprehended, so he wanted to go down and put away these letters, and then handed them over to Emperor Ling of Han to see.
How do you know that Emperor Han Ling has no intention of watching at all, the dragon sleeve waved, and Ling Ran shouted.
"Enough. Whether these letters are true or not, don't I know? No need to pass it on! ”
"Holy Lord, this!"
"Shut up! Spread my order, I gave half a year to Hedong to guard Wenhan, if he can't clear the rebellion in Hedong within half a year, let him come to see him!
Are you satisfied? ”
"The Holy One is angry. The ministers did not dare. ”
"Hmph, I don't dare. This matter ends here, in the past six months, I don't want to hear these three words Wen Bufan in your mouth! Retreat! ”
Emperor Han Ling stood up with a cold snort, his knife-sharp eyes glancing fiercely at Zhang Rang's body, and then the dragon left the dragon seat in a hurry.
Although the ministers who impeached Wen Han didn't know why Emperor Han Ling was so angry, their goal had been achieved. Although Wen Han was not stripped of his official position in time, he is now on the road to death, and there are dozens of waves of traitors around Hedong.
The number of thieves in each wave is at least 1,000 people, especially in the Baibo Valley in the Xihe area, there are tens of thousands. And now it is also winter, winter in March, it is impossible to send troops, that is to say, half a year, in fact, only three months. It is simply impossible to annihilate all these thieves in three months.
These ministers were secretly happy underneath, but in the skull under Zhang Rang, his face was so gloomy that he was about to drip water. He served the emperors of the three dynasties, and followed Emperor Ling of Han for decades, and this skill of observing words and emotions should be a must.
He had just felt that Emperor Han Ling's anger was all sprinkled on his body.
"Could it be that the Dead Ghost King has returned? Or did the saint learn that Wang Yue was killed by me? It's impossible. Now the guards in Luoyang City are all my men, and I have already informed them secretly, and once Wang Yue enters the city, they will notify me immediately. It is impossible for Wang Yue to return to Luoyang unnoticed.
And the pursuit and killing of Wang Yue was carried out by Hei Yuan, and they did things most neatly and neatly, and they would not leave any evidence. Even if they find the Black Beard, the Black Bearded Man will kill himself as soon as he is captured. Therefore, it is impossible for the saint to know that chasing and killing Wang Yue is the person I sent.
In this case, why is the Holy One becoming more and more cold and tired of me? ”
Zhang Rang was puzzled, but when he stood up and passed by the dragon chair, his eyes burst into extremely bright brilliance.
"Liu Hong, Liu Hong. Don't push me. If you and I were as close as father and son as we were before, I would let you live a little longer. But if you are to be at odds with me. Then, I can only kill my hand. A few days earlier, end your life sitting on the dragon chair. ”
Zhang Rang paced, walking step by step, the golden dragon chair had an extremely terrifying magic, as if it was constantly calling Zhang Rang, sit on, sit on.
It was a chair that was enough to make people lose their minds, and Zhang Rang swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva deeply, his eyes straightened, and his mind was on his head, like a sheep hanging a patient.
"Brother Zhang, Brother Zhang!!"
Suddenly, Zhao Zhong, who came to Zhang Rang's side at some point, woke up Zhang Rang, who was sluggish. Zhang Rang also seemed to feel that he was a little out of shape, and hurriedly lowered his head.
"Brother Zhang, what are you doing here. Don't you know that there are many ministers in this palace who have not departed? ”
Zhang Rang lowered his head and patted his sleeves.
"Calm, calm. The slave family is just a little distracted. Brother Zhao, look at it, is someone looking at me? ”
Zhao Zhong looked back according to Zhang Rang's words, and saw that the ministers and hundreds of officials walked out of the main hall one after another, and the main hall had gradually become empty.
"No more. They're all gone. ”
"Good. Then, Brother Zhao, let's go too. And who did you see just now who saw my gaffe, and when I go back, you can tell my brother one by one. ”
"Prince, what is the point of this letter, tell me quickly. Has the saint stripped Wen Bufan of the title of Hedong Taishou and asked him to get out of Hedong? ”
The patriarch of the Zhang clan in Mi County looked impatient, looking at Wang Zhong, who was sitting on the main seat, reading the letter from Luoyang. In addition to the patriarch of the Zhang clan in Mi County, the patriarchs of several other wealthy families were also looking at Wang Zhong eagerly. Wang Zhong frowned, but soon his brows stretched again, revealing a hint of an indifferent smile.
"Hehe, Gong Zhang, and all the brothers, don't worry. This letter said that Wen Bufan is still the Taishou of Hedong for the time being. ”
"What! How can it be! Under the condemnation of many high-ranking officials and ministers, Wen Bufan can still keep the position of the Taishou of Hedong!? Did he get the protection of some minister!? Or is it the saint who is eccentric and pampered him!? ”
The patriarch of the Gao clan in Juan County was an eight-foot-tall giant man with a big voice, and his roar suddenly made the ears of the people present buzz.
"Hehe, Patriarch Gao. Didn't you listen to the old man's words just now, using the word temporary? The Holy Lord has ordered that Wen Bufan be given half a year to clear all rebellions in Hedong. When the time comes, if he has not completed the imperial order, his head will be handed over to the imperial court. ”
Wang Zhong still had the same unchanging smile on his face, and said lightly. As soon as his words fell, the surprise on the faces of the patriarchs of several wealthy families who were originally present turned into cold smiles.
The patriarch of the Yanshi Jiang clan was the first to react, his eyes were full of yin owls, and his voice was feminine.
"Hmph. Half? Now that winter has arrived, in a few days, the east of the river will be snowed heavily, and the land will be cold. In the winter of March, it is impossible for Wen Bufan to send troops. In other words, Wen Bufan only had three months to sweep away the rebellion in Hedong, which was simply an impossible task.
Wen Bufan's head seems to be about to be lost. ”
"Haha, so I'll sit and watch the show, and then tolerate his arrogance for half a year, and after half a year, I'll see how he hands over his head to the court."
The patriarch of the Lantian Chang clan, who was next to the patriarch of the Yanshi Jiang clan, laughed, with a happy face. His smile immediately caused the patriarchs of the other wealthy families present to laugh heartily.
However, only Wang Zhong, who was sitting in the main seat, put away the indifferent smile on his face.
"What? The prince seems to have some concerns when he looks at you like this? ”
The patriarch of the Li clan in Ji County had sharp eyes, and when he found Wang Zhong's thoughtful face, he couldn't help but ask.
"Hmm... Don't underestimate this extraordinary article. Wen Bufan has gone all the way from a humble family to today, and has encountered a lot of hardships, this person not only has extraordinary talents, but also has great luck. Every time, you can turn evil into good fortune.
If so, this time he would really be able to clear the rebellion around Hedong within half a year. Then, he can go to prison for this too guarded position. Moreover, have you ever thought about it? Half a year later, in March, it will be time for the harvest in Tuntian, once Wen Bufan has a huge amount of grain, it will be difficult for me to confront him again.
With food, he was able to pacify people, gather men, and expand his army. There is no shortage of fierce generals under his command, and I heard that Xu Huang and Gao Shun both have the ability to train soldiers, and over time, they can train the newly formed men and horses into elite soldiers and horses. With food and a large number of elite soldiers, we and other wealthy families in Hedong can only bow down in front of him. ”
The more the patriarch of the Yanshi Jiang clan listened, the more gloomy his face became, and his heart moved, and he suddenly said.
