Unparalleled Concubine - v2 Chapter 1122

  Chapter 1122 Conditions of the Planter

  Li Xin’s drinking capacity is good, especially in the past ten years or so, the young emperor Yuan Zhao couldn’t drink him at all. When the two of them drank until midnight, the emperor fell to the ground and became unconscious.

   In comparison, Li Xin only blushed a little, he got up and patted his shirt, turned and walked towards the gate of Weiyang Palace.

   At the door, Xiao Zheng, dressed in red, was still waiting with his hands down.

  Li Xin glanced at him and said lightly, “The Son of Heaven is drunk, Eunuch Xiao takes more care of him.”

  Xiao Zheng bowed his head silently, this great **** who has been in charge of the inner court for more than ten years, after hesitating for a while, he finally couldn’t hold back and said, “Master Hou, can you…can you give your majesty a way to live…”

  As the head of the inner court, no one understands the cruelty of power tactics better than Xiao Zheng, but in the face of Li Xin, the **** who served two generations of emperors in the Jin Dynasty still spoke for the emperor Yuanzhao.

“You can tell the outside world that Your Majesty is dead, and then find a small **** of similar size from the official **** to replace it, and the slave can assure the Hou Ye that His Majesty will never appear in the capital again in this life, so that you can fight against His Majesty. Someone has an explanation, and … leave a way out for this student of yours.”

Li Xin was walking out, when he heard the words, he stopped and glanced back at Xiao Zheng: “These words should never have come out of your mouth, Eunuch Xiao, how can Eunuch Xiao be able to say such a thing for so many years in charge of the inner court? Stupid?”

   “When I moved from place to place, can the emperor let my family live?”

   “When the time comes, I’m going to go up and down the Jinganhou mansion, I’m afraid not even a dog will be left.”

  Li Xin’s face was expressionless: “I will only kill him. As long as relatives in the palace are honest enough and can’t move as much as possible, it’s already a matter of benevolence and righteousness.”

Xiao Zheng fell to his knees on the ground with a plop, kowtowed to Li Xin, and said with tears: “Master Hou, Your Majesty is young and ignorant, you are His Majesty’s karma teacher and His Majesty’s uncle, so you don’t look at the late emperor. The face of the eldest princess also depends on the face of the eldest princess, spare your majesty a life…”

   This red-robed eunuch, who usually faces hundreds of officials and is known as “Xiao Lengmian” in Beijing, knelt down in front of Li Xin, tears streaming down his face.

   “His Majesty is no longer able to pose any threat to the Marquis…”

   “Master Hou, have mercy.”

   Although he burst into tears, his voice was not loud, not because he was thin-skinned, but because he was afraid that Emperor Yuan Zhao in Weiyang Palace would hear it and hurt his self-esteem.

   General Li was expressionless: “I didn’t need to say these words to you, but you and I are also old friends, so I will say a few words to you.”

“As Eunuch Xiao said, it’s not difficult for me to save the emperor’s life now. Just find someone to replace it, but Eunuch Xiao, how can you guarantee that after the emperor gets out of this mess, he can feel at ease. To be his common people?”

   “If he is a dutiful character, how can he be like this?”

   “In his capacity, with a wave of his arm, he can easily gather an army.”

   “These risks, Eunuch Xiao, are you going to take them?”

  Li Xin was expressionless: “You Xiao Zheng can’t afford it.”

   After Li Xin said this, he turned around indifferently: “Li Xin said this, I can guarantee one thing, when the time comes, His Majesty’s funeral will still be the etiquette of the Son of Heaven.”

  Under the moonlight, Li Xin walked down the entire eighty-one steps of the Weiyang Palace, walking further and further away.

   Xiao Zheng knelt on the ground, looked up at Li Xin’s back, and was speechless for a long time.

   At this time, the moonlight shone on the high platform of Weiyang Palace. Emperor Yuan Zhao, who had already passed out from drinking, had already stood behind Xiao Zheng at some point, with a blank expression on his face.

  …………

   Time soon arrived the next morning.

As soon as the    arrived, more than 70% of the ministers in the court gathered in front of the palace gate, waiting to enter the Weiyang Palace to worship the emperor.

   At this time, Li Xin, who hadn’t slept all night, and Mu Ying stood on the tower of Yonganmen, watching the crowd of Zhu Zi in the city.

   Mu Ying looked mocking.

   “These civil servants have changed their faces really fast. A few days ago, they justly called us rebels. Today, I can’t wait to enter the palace to worship the new king.”

  Li Xin rubbed his temples and said, “The Sixth Prince, are you ready?”

   “Don’t worry, General, you are ready.”

Mu Ying grinned and said: “According to the meaning of the general, the subordinate arranged the sixth prince in the Changle Palace, and when the time came, let the officials go to Changle Palace to welcome the sixth prince to the Weiyang Palace, and then in the Weiyang Palace. Accept the national seal, and finally go to the Taimiao to pay tribute to the ancestors, and then set up an altar to offer sacrifices to the sky, and today’s event is considered accomplished.”

   “Now there are all our people inside and outside the imperial city. Even the eunuchs and their subordinates didn’t let them out. There is absolutely no chance of any mistakes.”

   Li Xin nodded.

   “Just arrange it.”

   “After today’s work is over, the Hanzhou army will temporarily take over the guards in the palace, but there is one thing to remember, don’t harass the women in the palace. If there is any disorder, kill them directly.”

   “General, don’t worry.”

   Mu Ying patted his chest and said, “Today in the palace are the elites of the Hanzhou army. It is forbidden by orders. Whoever does something scandalous will lose the face of the Hanzhou army, and his subordinates will strip him alive!”

   “Then there is the issue of the Shangshu Desk.”

Li Xin said slowly: “Although there have been changes in the capital, state affairs must not be abandoned. The remaining three prime ministers of the Shangshutai will still be used for the time being, and they cannot be embarrassed. After Zhao Jia enters the capital to take charge of the Shangshutai, he will reorganize. “

The two stood on the tower of Yonganmen, and after discussing some specific details, the time was almost up. With a wave of Li Xin’s big hand, the palace gate of Yonganmen slowly opened, and a crowd of civil and military officials poured in. the imperial city.

   Li Xin was about to leave Yonganmen and go to Changle Palace to preside over the overall situation, when he suddenly caught a glimpse of Yonganmen, a familiar figure hurried towards Yonganmen.

  Li Xin turned around and said to Mu Ying, “Brother Mu will enter the palace to maintain order for now, and organize hundreds of officials to welcome the emperor. I’ll go see someone, and I’ll be there later.”

  Mu Ying also saw the figure of the man, knew what Li Xin meant, and nodded immediately: “Don’t worry, General, we have calculated today’s affairs several times in the past few days, and there will be no mistakes.”

   “The subordinates will wait for the general in the Weiyang Palace for a while.”

  Li Xin nodded silently and walked down Yonganmen with twenty or thirty personal guards.

Outside Yonganmen, Ye Lin, the Minister of the Ministry of War, who was only wearing a normal uniform and had loose hair, was walking towards Yonganmen. Before he could reach Yonganmen, Li Xin had already appeared in front of him, facing him. Wei Wei cupped his hands: “Senior Brother Ye is finally here.”

  Li Xin’s eyes were a little eager: “How’s the family thing going?”

   Ye Lin’s eyes were bloodshot, and his voice was a little hoarse: “Old man Chong said, if the Ji family is gone, it will be difficult for the Chong family to survive. He wants you to promise not to settle accounts with the Chong family after Qiuhou…”

   “I persuaded him for two days before the old man could state the conditions.”

Having said this, Ye Lin paused, and then continued: “What this fellow means is, let Chang’an marry another woman from the family as a concubine, and the troops of the military will return to Yunzhou immediately, still the frontier army of Dajin. …”

   Ye Lin gasped for breath, and without waiting for Li Xin to speak, he continued, “There’s more… there’s more.”

   “Ye Mao has a letter.”

   This Ye Shangshu’s voice was a bit bitter.

   “The Yuwen Department of Northern Xinjiang has begun to harass the border with small units…”

  Li Xin frowned slightly.
