Why did the emperor rebel?

Chapter 356: No Infighting?

It is different from these relatives who have big and deep roots and have been operating in the court for many years.

The nobleman in the palace, before the Civil War, actually didn't manage much power in the court.

After all, with her status as an old man, there is no need to interfere in the affairs of the foreign court.

Most of the time, the officials begged her in front of the old man in various ways, and then picked her up by hand.

Speaking of which, this has something to do with Wang Zhen. At that time, Wang Zhen was in charge. For the Supreme Emperor, besides Wang Zhen, the most trusted person was that noble man.

Therefore, many people who have offended Wang Zhen for various reasons will often beg in front of her old man, thus accumulating a lot of good fortune.

But there are not many people who can really command the court like an arm.

In addition to the damage caused by the Civil War, many of those who were sent to the border to inspect the war died during the War of Oirat, and there are not many who are still in the court.

Now the list in Luo Tong's hand should be the only one left.

No one can be sure what the consequences of knocking on the que will be.

The best result, of course, is to successfully overthrow Wang Wen and stop the mutual market, but it is conceivable that those who participated in the knockout will be punished more or less.

Especially for ordinary censors, throwing them into a corner to become a county magistrate is considered a great grace.

Thinking of this, Luo Tong couldn't help but see a trace of cold sweat.

No wonder, the British government gave this list so readily.

In the list in his hand, there are people who are relatives, and there are people arranged by the palace. The number of both is about [-] people.

But I also want to know, how could this group of relatives have only so few connections after so many years in power.

They had already planned it out, and if things went well, it would be good.

If it doesn't go well, then these people will all lose it.

For the British government, this is not a traumatic thing at all.

But in this way, the little influence that nobleman had left in the foreign court would probably disappear completely.

Without these manpower, even if the nobleman is unwilling, the only way to continue to rely on the British government is.

It turned out that it was not Luo Tong who plotted against the British government at all, but was used as a gunman by others.

What Ren Li is doing now is to tell the palace the details of the matter before the British government.

Luo Tong believed that in Ren Li's description, the risk of knocking out the que must be extremely huge, and these people must not be worth investing in.

In this way, the nobleman will only feel that Ren Li is thinking of her wholeheartedly, and will trust them more. At the same time, it will widen the rift between the palace and the British government, killing two birds with one stone.

After all, these manpower, but the nobleman has only a few manpower left in the court, so he will definitely think twice.

After a while, Luo Tong sighed heavily, with a dejected look on his face, he said, "But if this is the case, it may be difficult to succeed in knocking on the que. In this way, the matter of the mutual market..."

Ren Li sneered and said flatly.

"The plan was finalized by the Second Master, Uncle Ning Yang and the others. If it fails to come to fruition, they should be responsible for it. You Lord Luo have gone so far for them, what else can they say?"

Luo Tong still hesitated, and said: "Although that is the case, the Supreme Emperor..."

This time, he was interrupted by Ren Li before he finished speaking.

"What is the Supreme Emperor? Even if the exchange is approved and the news reaches Wala, at most the negotiation will break down. Would you dare to kill the Supreme Emperor first?"

Luo Tong was momentarily at a loss for words.

It would definitely not be possible to kill the Supreme Emperor. Now that both sides know it well, they will never have the guts to kill the Supreme Emperor.

Otherwise, Wala would never be able to afford the revenge of Daming with all its might.

After a while, Luo Tong sighed and said: "But in this way, I don't know when the Supreme Emperor will return..."

Ren Li also shook his head and said.

"How can it be so serious, at most it will be a year and a half late, but there is no way to do it. Benhou also wants the Supreme Emperor to return as soon as possible, but the success of knocking the que is hard to predict. Once it fails, invest so much Too many people, the cost is too high, it is not necessary at all.”

"What's more, the return of the Supreme Emperor may not necessarily be affected by this. If there is a first mission, there will be a second mission."

"The Supreme Emperor will come back eventually. If it doesn't work this time, there will be a next time. As long as we develop manpower steadily in the court, then when the Supreme Emperor returns, the situation we will face will definitely be better than it is now."

There was another sentence that Ren Li didn't say, but Luo Tong understood it.

That is, Xu Bin, Xiao Weizhen and others on this mission are all very close to the British government.

Are you really willing to let the great achievement of welcoming back the Supreme Emperor fall on them?

After hesitating for a moment, Luo Tong finally nodded.

So, a smile appeared on Ren Li's face again, and he spoke.

"Lord Luo, don't worry, the nobleman is most worried about the Supreme Emperor. If she feels the need to invest in these people, this Marquis will naturally not stop her, and will try her best to fulfill the nobleman's order."

"What's more, I'm not waiting for nothing. It's just to save some manpower for the nobleman. It's just that we need to run, and Lord Luo needs to continue to run. But just to be on the safe side, this Marquis suggests that when the real knock is on, Lord Luo It’s better not to go out on your own.”

Hearing this, Luo Tong was a little confused.

He understood what Ren Li meant. If there are not enough manpower, the risk of knocking out the que will rise sharply. In this way, following behind to fish in troubled waters and gain a reputation for outspoken advice may turn into putting yourself in it.

So it's best to stay out of the matter, but as Ren Li said, he was the one who was running around this time.

As a result, when the critical moment came, he didn't go by himself, and his reputation would be completely ruined.

And if he gave up the plan of knocking on the que, then he would be safe, but the British government would definitely think that Luo Tong was playing tricks on them, but he would be completely offended.

Therefore, for a while, Luo Tong was in a dilemma.

At this time, Ren Li suddenly spoke.

"If Master Luo is in trouble, this Marquis has a plan to protect you from being criticized, but it's a bit risky. I don't know if Master Luo has the guts..."

As he spoke, he leaned down and approached Luo Tong's ear, and whispered a few words, which made Luo Tong almost jump up.

"This, is this too risky? What if..."

Ren Li spread his hands helplessly and said.

"It is indeed a bit risky, but at this point, is there any other way for Master Luo?"

Luo Tong's expression changed for a while, and Fang said with some difficulty.

"Master Hou, can you guarantee that the person you arrange will not miss?"

Ren Li smiled confidently, patted Luo Tong on the shoulder, and said.

"Lord Luo, you and I are on our own now."

"After returning to the mansion today, the Marquis will truthfully write your situation into a letter and tell the nobles in the palace."

"If you are not at ease, you can go back to the mansion with Benhou, and watch Benhou hand over the letter to the eldest princess. It is reasonable and reasonable. Benhou will not harm you, so you can rest assured."

The sound of the rain outside became more and more rapid, mixed with rumbling thunder, and a gust of wind blew away the thick car curtain.

Amidst the flashing lights, Luo Tong nodded his head with difficulty.

"Okay, if that's the case, I'll leave it to Lord Hou."
