high official

Chapter 1070
"Stop talking nonsense!" After hearing Wei Wuque's explanation, Eunuch Zou came back to his senses and stomped his feet and shouted, "Hurry up and chase me!"

"I can't catch up..." Wei Wuque advised them not to waste their efforts.

"Why?!" Eunuch Zou looked at Wei Wuque in puzzlement. At this moment, he no longer dared to underestimate the face of His Royal Highness King Zhao. After all, the other party could completely crush him in terms of intelligence and understanding of Wang Xian.

"Why?" Wei Wuque stretched out his hand to wipe his cheeks full of rain, feeling the bone-chilling coldness, and said, "Because it's Wang Xian..."

.

'Ah! As soon as he climbed out of the tunnel, Wang Xian sneezed loudly, and he didn't know whether it was stimulated by the smell of earth or caused by someone's resentment.

"My lord, are you okay?" Wu Wei, who hadn't seen him for a long time, hurriedly grabbed Wang Xian to prevent him from being knocked back into the tunnel by his own sneezing.

"It's okay." Wang Xian waved his hand, patted Wu Wei's shoulder vigorously, and said with a happy smile, "Finally we see the light of day again!"

Wu Wei also smiled, seeing Wang Xian pulling Gu Xiaolian out of the burrow, he asked the latter's condition with his eyes, Wang Xian shook his head lightly, indicating that he didn't need to talk to Gu Xiaolian.Wu Wei nodded, and said seriously: "They will come after them at any time, let's move quickly."

"I listen to your arrangements." Wang Xian nodded, and took Gu Xiaolian, under the protection of Wu Wei, Zhou Gan and others, to leave the exit of the tunnel, only to find that he was by the pool of water.

"My lord, please get on board." Wu Wei led Wang Xian to a grain ship.Jishuitan is the end point of grain transport to the north, and there are no more grain ships.

Wang Xian boarded the grain boat, and the boat quietly unanchored and sailed to the center of the pond. On such a night of heavy rain, the boat seemed to disappear between heaven and earth.

After entering the cabin, the rain screen cut off the outside, and the dry and warm breath rushed over.In order to welcome Wang Xian, the people in the cabin specially lit the brazier.Wang Xian looked at Yan Qing who was sitting by the brazier, smiling at him, and Xianyun standing beside Yan Qing, and his heart warmed up a lot.

Let the servant girl serve Gu Xiaolian to the cabin inside to change the wet clothes, while Wang Xian took off his wet coat in front of Yan Qing, revealing his strong and well-proportioned muscles.

Yan Qing smiled helplessly, and poured Wang Xian a bowl of boiling ginger soup. Wang Xian took it and sipped it while listening to Yan Qing's concise explanation of the latest situation.Although there is no problem in communicating with the outside world in the small courtyard, after all, the restrictions are not small, and the timeliness and comprehensiveness are quite insufficient. At this moment, I must make up my homework.

When he heard Yan Qing say that Zhu Di woke up early, he just endured until the grandson returned before he stopped pretending to be in a coma. Wang Xian also gasped in surprise, and was almost choked by Jiang Si: "Ahem, what is this?" The old fox really has a trick, he tricked everyone!"

Wang Xian naturally understood that it was obviously Zhu Di who was secretly manipulating Yang Shiqi and others to steal the gold seal from under Zheng He's nose.Even he was tricked by the old emperor and became a tool to help him get his grandson back to the capital.This made Wang Xian, who vowed not to be used by anyone again, very upset.

"And then? What did the emperor do?" Wang Xian suppressed the boredom in his heart, and continued to ask in a deep voice.

"The emperor summoned the grandson, and there seems to be a secret decree issued, but the specific content is unknown." Yan Qing said slowly: "I only know that after the grandson returned to Yingtai, Zheng He saw that the warrior battalion was secretly transferred to the palace. Inside the secret passage."

"Oh?" Wang Xian drank the ginger soup, his body became much warmer, wiped the fine beads of sweat from his forehead, and asked with a smile, "How long ago did this happen?"

"An hour ago." Yan Qing replied.

"It seems that your errands are done very well, such secret things can be known in time." Wang Xian said with a smile that was not a smile.

"Firstly, there are people in the palace who have taken refuge with us, and the news is fairly well-informed." Yan Qing could hear the questioning in Wang Xian's tone, and said seriously: "Secondly, my subordinates suspect that this is what the emperor deliberately let people see... ..."

"Oh?" Wang Xian was holding the bowl, white air lingered, making his expression more and more unpredictable: "Why does the emperor want to be seen by others?"

"Shock." Yan Qing said in a deep voice: "In my humble opinion, the emperor's purpose is to shock, let all parties know that he has woken up, and as before, everything is under control!"

"Then why, the people from Dongchang will do something to me tonight?" Wang Xian asked quietly while looking at Yan Qing.

"Well, of course, the people in Dongchang also know that the emperor has woken up and ambushed the army. King Zhao must understand that if you don't do anything, you will never have a chance." Yan Qing's eyes flickered, and then he returned to normal.

"You said that the emperor intentionally spread the news for the purpose of intimidating," Wang Xian said with the sharpness of a sword in his tone, "how could it be a shock? I think, if King Zhao didn't know that the emperor had woken up, There may be no action tonight, and tomorrow the whole situation will be settled as soon as someone enters the palace, wouldn't it be better for the emperor?"

"This..." Yan Qing saw sweat on his forehead, and said in a low voice: "Maybe the emperor is old and confused."

"Maybe someone is doing tricks in the dark!" Wang Xian sneered, although the voice was not loud, the atmosphere in the cabin fell to freezing point in the blink of an eye, Wu Wei, Dai Hua and others all became nervous, looking at Wang Xianhe breathlessly Yan Qing.

"You can't hide anything from your lord." Under Wang Xian's icy gaze, Yan Qing smiled calmly, looked at Wang Xian without fear and said, "Your subordinate is disabled, so you can't kneel down to plead guilty. My lord expected it. Bian was originally kept in the dark, and someone from his subordinates revealed it to Huang He." After a pause, he said: "The emperor intends to let people know that Zheng He secretly transferred troops into the palace, but he didn't intend to let people know. Knowing that he has woken up. In this way, King Zhao will only think that Zheng He and his grandson are colluding together. Although there will be preparations, he will definitely not act hastily tonight. When the news that the emperor has woken up is announced tomorrow morning, everyone Only people will know that the emperor transferred the army into the palace, and under the shock, they will all bow their heads and obey their ears. At that time, with King Zhao's courage, he will not dare to make trouble again!"

"Isn't that good?" Wang Xian said coldly, "Why did you disclose the news to King Zhao and let him take risks?"

"Because otherwise, the one who ascends the throne as the emperor must be His Highness the Grandson!" Yan Qing said with emotion: "The subordinates know that the lord and the grandson have a close personal relationship, but the subordinates know better that the grandson must never surpass the prince as emperor!"

"Why?" Wang Xian's expression moved, and he continued to ask expressionlessly.

"Because the ethics are orderly! Because the country needs a prince! Because... the grandson ascends the throne, and your lord will definitely die!" Yan Qing said with a righteous face, sonorously.

"How do you say it?" Although Wang Xian's tone was still indifferent, the ice in his eyes melted a lot.

"Let's talk about the orderly relationship first. If the grandson ascends the throne, how will the crown prince deal with himself? How will the officials who love the crown prince deal with himself? How will fathers and sons in the world deal with themselves?" Yan Qing said in a deep voice: "The elders and the younger are still in order. , let alone father and son?! The emperor passed the crown prince to pass on the throne to the grandson, but disregarded ethics and planted the root of chaos for the world!"

Wang Xian snorted noncommittally, and said, "How do you know that the emperor is going to pass the throne to the grandson?"

"You can see the layout of the emperor at a glance!" Yan Qing said slowly: "As soon as the grandson enters the palace, the emperor wakes up, and even transfers the warrior battalion to the palace to follow, obviously there is an important announcement to be made soon!" After a pause, he said: "The emperor It’s already a candle in the wind, besides announcing the new king, what other important things can we do at this time?”

"It's also possible that the new king is the prince, and the grandson is only temporarily in charge of the country." Wang Xian said expressionlessly.

"Absolutely not!" Yan Qing shook his head resolutely and said, "If the emperor wants to pass the throne to the crown prince, he will wait until the crown prince returns to Beijing before waking up! Moreover, after His Royal Highness the grandson returned to Yingtai, no news was sent out! If The crown prince is the one who ascended the throne, he will definitely contact me as soon as possible!"

"..." Wang Xian was speechless.

"My lord, this subordinate is not for my own sake," Yan Qing said in a solemn voice, "after Emperor Yongle's 20 years of extravagance and overspending, the world today has reached the point where all the oil is exhausted and the people are dying. There is an urgent need to change course and abolish tyranny. To rest with the people, if you want to do this thoroughly, it must be His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

"Why not His Royal Highness?" Wang Xian put down the soup bowl, patted the back of his right hand with his left hand, his eyes were piercingly cold.

"Of course the grandson is the master of Yingcha, but his subordinates have observed for many years that his appearance is exactly the same as the present, but his temperament is quite weak and his responsibility is insufficient!" Yan Qing replied in a deep voice without being afraid of Wang Xian's gaze. Dao: "More importantly, if he is the emperor, he is forced by the emperor to surpass the crown prince, and there will inevitably be many criticisms. In order to suppress dissent and emphasize the legitimacy of his position, for a long time, He will definitely abide by today's standards of words and deeds, and will follow the current track in every word and action, and will never go beyond it!"

"My lord, this world has reached the critical point of life and death, and we can't delay for a moment! If the grandson is allowed to ascend the throne, it must be Zhu Di's line without Zhu Di! In that case, the great Ming Dynasty will surely perish, and the people will surely fall into the upside down!" Yan Qing said Gritting his teeth, he slipped from the wheelchair to the floor, kneeling in front of Wang Xian with his arms propped up, "My lord, I can't wait to know this and still be indifferent!"

Seeing Yan Qing dragging his two disabled legs and kneeling in front of him, Wang Xian sighed and waved his hands.It was only then that Wu Wei and Dai Hua dared to help him up and sat him in the wheelchair again.Then everyone looked at Wang Xian quietly, waiting for him to make a final decision.

"You're all looking at me," Wang Xian glared at them angrily, and said in a muffled voice, "You've already chased ducks to the shelves, do I have any choice?"

"Hey..." Wu Wei and the others scratched their heads and laughed, and Dai Hua laughed and said, "Isn't this also giving you a chance to take revenge with your own hands?"

"I still have to thank you, can't I?" Wang Xian snorted, his expression became solemn, and he said in a deep voice, "Are you all ready?"

"Ready." Wu Wei also became serious when he heard the words, and replied in a deep voice: "The waterway leading to Yingtai has been opened, and troops can be sent in at any time." Speaking of this, he hesitated and said: "It's just that our troops are on the way. where?"
