Fu Lin quieted down, gently stroked his face, his eyes were full of love, and said softly: "Sister will never leave you for the rest of her life, didn't she say it a long time ago?" ”

Yang Tong stopped and lay down with her, "One day, I will give you the life you want, this is my promise to you." ”

Fu Lin opened his mouth, wanting to tell him about Zhen Mingku's desire to give her a child, and after thinking about it, he might not be pregnant, if he was really pregnant, it would not be too late to tell him when the time came.

……

"Zhen Mingku has been removed from the army, why hasn't King Zheng done it yet?"

"The prince doesn't know, although Zhen Mingku has been relieved of military power by Yang Tong, but after all, there is still a Luo Shixin in the palace, as long as he is there, if he wants to attack the palace, it is impossible without 10,000 troops."

"Why are you bothered to intervene in some of your own people?"

"Although my father has military power, he is a courtier after all, and the head of the palace guard has always been appointed by Yang Tong himself, and without his consent, no one can blend into the Praetorian Guard."

"What is the origin of this Luo Shixin, have you sent someone to investigate?"

Wang Xuanshu pondered for a moment, "Two years ago, he was the champion of the new science and martial arts with Zhen Mingku, and it was my father who personally recommended him, so he has today's status, but in recent years, he has relied on Yang Dong's trust, and he has made a false accusation to this king, and he fought in Wagang, my father ordered him to be removed, but he escaped by chance, and after returning to Luoyang, he did not complain to Yang Tong, and this king also felt puzzled......"

The handsome and resolute man sitting opposite him silently listened to Wang Xuanshu talk about Luo Shixin's origin one by one, and a smile gradually appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Brother Wang. In my opinion, King Zheng should have been deceived by Zhen Mingku's bitter tricks and his bitter tricks, and the two are afraid that they have known each other from the beginning. made a good show in front of King Zheng, making King Zheng mistakenly think that he didn't know Zhen Mingkusu, and Yang Tong pretended to be neutral in the middle, in fact, in order to let King Zheng relax his vigilance, so that Luo Shixin could be promoted to the head of the palace guards. ”

Wang Xuanshu was slightly stunned, then slapped the table and stood up, and said angrily: "No wonder Na Luo Shixin deliberately showed favor to my father. made my father mistakenly think that he intended to join my Wang family, but it turned out that he was against my father's yang and yin, Luo Shixin. One day, I will let you know the consequences of cheating our royal family! …… Son, what are your plans? ”

The young and handsome man pondered for a moment, then raised his head and smiled slightly: "Since this Luo Shixin is inextricably linked to Zhen Mingku. As long as the evidence of his dealings with Zhen Mingku is found. handed it over to Yang Tong, and with Yang Tong's current suspicion of Zhen Mingku, he learned that Luo Shixin was Zhen Mingku's eyeliner lurking beside him, and it was strange not to remove Luo Shixin's position. ”

"The prince is really resourceful, the Li family has you, why can't you strengthen the Li family's family business."

"Brother Wang praised falsely, this time my father asked me to come, in addition to helping King Zheng. More importantly, he wants to form an alliance with the Wang family, and he will not invade each other day by day. Acting separately is also to stop fighting for the sake of the people, and the people are happy, and the emperor regards my Li family as an enemy, and our Li family will never compromise with him...... Therefore, it is better to ask your father to take charge of Luoyang as soon as possible, and I am afraid that things will change. ”

Wang Xuanshu knew that Yang Tong hated the Li family for poisoning his brother, and he was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "What the prince said is extremely true, I will send someone to collect evidence." ”

……

In the imperial study room of Luoyang Palace, Yuan Wendu, Duan Da, Luo Shixin, Huangfu Wuyi, Lu Chu and others stood next to the bookcase, looking at Yang Tong with an excited expression, and their expressions were a little shocked.

"The emperor thinks twice, this matter is not trivial, in case of failure, I am afraid that Wang Shichong will not be able to give up, with his power at this time, if it is broken, I am afraid it will ......"

"Ladies and gentlemen, I have made up my mind, you don't need to persuade me anymore, you are all my henchmen, I came to you today just to ask you, how to start this matter?"

Yuan Wendu and the others looked at each other, and their eyes all showed caution and hesitation.

Yang Tong looked at Luo Shixin with his eyes: "General Lu, General Luo, General Huangfu, General Duan, if this matter is revealed, can you hold Luoyang Palace?" ”

Lu Chu and Duan Da did not hesitate when they heard this, and replied in a firm tone: "The minister must protect the emperor with his life!" ”

Huangfu Wuyi was silent, only Luo Shixin was silent for a moment, and said: "Your Majesty, this matter is considered in the long run, and it is best to discuss it with the General of the Secret Guard." ”

Yang Tong was a little displeased, and snorted coldly: "Could it be that I can't even make a decision, and I can't ask for his opinion on everything, he just thinks that I have to rely on him to govern the world, unscrupulous, repeatedly disobedient, and said the great rebellion that made me abdicate and let Xian, I repeatedly tolerated and tolerated it, just remembering his past merits, I couldn't bear to be responsible, and replaced someone else, I would have cured him of a big disrespect early in the morning, let him retire and return to the field, and he was already merciful to him, General Luo, you excuse the suffering of Zhen everywhere, Do you think I did something wrong to dismiss him? ”

"I don't dare." A hint of disappointment flashed in Luo Shixin's eyes, he lowered his head, stepped aside, and said no more.

"If General Luo feels scared about this, just watch from the sidelines."

Yang Tong ignored him anymore, turned his head, and smiled at Lu Chu and Duan Da: "There are two Aiqing guarding me, and Wang Shichong has thousands of troops, so why be afraid...... Yuanqing's family, if you want to keep Wang Shichong suspicious, will you be out? ”

Yuan Wendu saw that Yang Tong had made up his mind, and he no longer tried to persuade him, bowed his head and pondered for a moment, and said: "According to the minister's opinion, if you rashly summon Wang Shichong into the palace and set up an ambush with swords, I am afraid that you may not be able to kill him on the spot. ”

"What about Wen Killing?"

"Use poison."

"He is very wary of me, and if he has no reason, he is afraid that he will not easily drink the wine I have given."

Yuan Wendu smiled slightly: "There is no reason, the emperor will give him a reason, and it is a big sweetness, maybe as soon as he gets carried away, he forgets to take precautions." ”

Yang Tong was overjoyed and hurriedly asked, "What sweetness?" Come on! ”

……

The next day, a secret decree came out of the palace and sent it to Wang Shichong's mansion.

The secret decree said that the emperor Taizhu because of the receipt of the spy report, Chang'an Li family is vigorously troops, reorganize the troops, and send thousands of cavalry to wander in Hangu Pass, there seems to be signs of attacking Luoyang, in recent days to tea and dinner do not think, sick in bed, even the imperial doctor is helpless, suddenly one day the spirit improves, immediately let people prepare a book, sent to Zheng Wangfu.

Wang Shichong received the secret decree and opened it to take a look, which was written some of Yang Dong's heartfelt words, talking about his dissatisfaction and complaints about Wang Shichong over the years, every sentence was sincere, and said that Wang Shichong's teaching grace over the years, the teacher's grace was unforgettable, etc., so that Wang Shichong was full of doubts, and the words on this letter were undoubtedly Yang Dong's words of weakness.

At the end of the secret decree, Yang Tong revealed a trace of exhaustion, vaguely revealing that he was on the throne, but there was no fun, overwhelmed, although he didn't want to be the emperor, but he suffered from no one to entrust, and his body was getting weaker and weaker, quite a sad state of twilight, the letter also said that he had figured out one thing these days, rather than die in this position, it was better to abdicate and make way for Xian, but there were no heirs under his knees, this throne can only be entrusted to the prestige of the court, and there is only Wang Shichong in the court, and Yuan Wendu is highly respected and can be a heavy responsibility.

For this reason, a feast was specially set up in the palace, and hundreds of officials were invited to discuss the matter together, and a virtuous person who was expected to be returned to inherit the throne was selected.

After Wang Shichong received the letter, although he was a little suspicious, he thought that Yang Tong was inviting hundreds of officials to feast, and it was impossible to do anything at the banquet, so he suppressed the ecstasy in his heart, and immediately found his staff, closed the door to negotiate overnight, and the next day, he dressed up to attend and entered the palace with hundreds of officials.

……

Hundreds of banquets were set up in the Taiji Palace, and hundreds of officials sat on the ground, talking about each other.

Many people have already heard the rumors and learned that Yang Tong is going to announce an earth-shattering event today.

After the hundred officials entered the table, Wang Shichong was escorted by more than a dozen personal soldiers, hung a sword on his waist, and entered the main hall.

When the hundred officials saw him come in, they all stood up to greet him, and Wang Shichong, who was in power, had no doubt that he would be the biggest winner of today's banquet, how dare they slack off.

Wang Shi is full of red light, people are in good spirits on happy occasions, and greet his colleagues around him one by one, and people who don't know him will inevitably think that he is kind and amiable, giving people an illusion of ease of contact.

Yuan Wendu sat at the top of the left side of the steps of the main hall, sitting with Huangfu Wuyi, Duan Da and others, while Luo Shixin wore armor and stood on the steps with more than a dozen guards.

When the hundred officials got up to greet them, only these few people didn't even look at Wang Shichong, sat upright, and didn't squint.

"The emperor has arrived! The eldest princess of prosperity has arrived! ”

Under the chanting of the eunuch, Yang Tong, who was pale and sickly, slowly walked in from the side door of the main hall with the help of Fu Lin, and finally sat down, coughing violently, as if his lungs were about to cough out, Fu Lin hurriedly handed him a white handkerchief.

The sharp-eyed people all found that after Yang Tong coughed for a while, a piece of blood red appeared on the white handkerchief, and they all muttered about what kind of illness the emperor was suffering from.

How early the kings in history died, one is the harem beauties three thousand overworked, the second is because the palace is dangerous, not less than the battlefield, the concubine is resentful, secretly poisoned, the brothers covet, secretly assassinated, since ancient times the throne is difficult to sit, whoever sits on the throne, which one does not have clever means, vicious, power struggle, either you die or I die, there is no compromise, otherwise you will not call yourself alone, it is helpless and inevitable.

Yang Tong finally stopped a little, and waved his hand weakly to the ministers: "Ladies and gentlemen, please take a seat." ”

The officials thanked them and took their seats one after another. (To be continued......)
