The first emperor of the Song Dynasty

Chapter 429 Self-interest
Wan Yanliang casually threw this list on the table, these are the bottom books for future settlements.

The special general quietly went out of the city alone, and Wan Yanliang sent him out, which naturally meant that he would take the blame and make meritorious service. into.

Soon, the special general encountered Wan Yanchang's large army a hundred miles away from the city.

"General, there is someone outside who claims to be the head of the imperial bodyguard called the Special General!" Inside Wan Yanchang's camp, the messenger said to Wan Yanchang.

As the large army approached the upper capital, Wan Yanchang's mood began to become heavy at this time. After all, this time he returned from the expedition, and he will come to the court. It is not clear what his result will be. I guess it should be Is it the last time he led troops to go out?
"The special general in charge of the imperial guards?" Wan Yanchang was worried about this matter, when he got the news suddenly, he couldn't help frowning and said, "Why is he here?"

"How many people did he bring here?" Wan Yanchang asked softly. He had received news two days ago that Wan Yante had sent someone to contact him, and wanted him to overthrow Wan Yanliang with Wan Yante. , but Wan Yanchang was a little hesitant. After all, the risk of this matter was too great, and Wan Yanchang needed to carefully consider it.

Now the minister next to Wan Yanliang came suddenly, which meant that Wan Yanliang came in person. Of course he didn't know that the special general at this time actually had an element of avoiding disaster in it.

"He came alone," replied the orderly.

"Come alone?" Wan Yanchang pondered for a moment, and immediately understood that the reason why Wan Yanliang kept such a low profile that Pat came alone was probably because he didn't want more people to know about it.

"When you came here just now, how many people knew about this?" Wan Yanchang asked softly.

"Only one of the subordinates knows, that person specifically told his subordinates to report this matter directly to the general." The guard said to Wan Yanchang.

Wan Yanchang nodded, and said to the guard: "Okay, don't mention this to anyone, and then carefully bring him to my camp."

Although the messenger didn't understand Wan Yanchang's intentions, seeing Wan Yanchang's serious face when he spoke at this time, he hurriedly nodded seriously and said to Wan Yanchang: "Don't worry, general Get down here and do it."

Wan Yanchang nodded, paid out all the guards in the tent, and waited for the general to arrive.

Soon, the special general in plain clothes was brought to Wan Yanchang's camp by the messenger.

Wan Yanchang said to the messenger: "You go out first, remember, no one is allowed in without my permission."

The messenger nodded, and went to the door to keep watch.

Only then did the special general salute Wan Yanchang and said, "General!"

Wan Yanchang looked at the special general and said softly: "Special general, why are you here?"

The special general looked at Wan Yanchang, and said softly: "General, the last general who came this time is following His Majesty's order to meet with the general in secret."

Wan Yanchang looked at the special general, and said softly, "Your Majesty? I don't know which one is your Majesty?"

When Wan Yanchang went to war, His Majesty the Emperor of the Kingdom of Jin was still Wan Yan Quan. Now that he has returned from the war, the throne has changed hands. It is not wrong for him to ask such a question at this time, but the meaning of it is a bit interesting. up.

The special general looked at Wan Yanchang in front of him, and said softly: "General, His Majesty Xizong has passed away, and His Majesty Wan Yanliang, the king of Hailing, is in power now."

After hearing this, Wan Yanchang pretended to have just received the news, and said with a sad face, "His Majesty Xizong passed away? Why did His Majesty Xizong pass away suddenly?"

The special general secretly scolded this guy for being shameless, he must have already got the news, but at this time he pretended not to know, but at this time he could only bite the bullet and say: "Your Majesty suddenly fell ill and passed away, Hai King Mausoleum was ordered in danger, and was elected to the throne by all the courtiers."

Wan Yanchang nodded and said, "Since that's the case, did King Hailing send you here?"

At this time, Wan Yanchang deliberately called Wan Yanliang the King of Hailing, but did not directly address His Majesty, the meaning of which is a bit playful.

The special general knew that these people were old foxes, and his address like this showed that he still had some doubts about Wanyan Liang's identity, so he didn't directly address Wanyan Liang as His Majesty.

"That's right, it was His Majesty who sent the last general here." The special general figured this out, so he could only bite the bullet and say at this moment.

Wan Yanchang nodded, and said to the general: "I just don't know why King Hailing sent you here?"

The special general nodded and said to Wan Yanchang: "Your Majesty sent ministers here to seek the general's help."

Wan Yanchang was clever, but he didn't show anything on the surface, he said softly: "The special general is really joking, since King Hailing has been honored as a great treasure, why does he need the help of a subordinate at this time? ?”

The special general was anxious, and said directly at this time: "The general does not know, although your majesty has been crowned the great treasure, but there are still many people in this court who have ulterior motives. The rebellion has already been arrested by the last general."

When Wan Yanchang heard this, he thought of the envoy sent by Wanyan Te to form an alliance, and he sighed inwardly. The speed of Wanyan Liang's action was not slow, and he had already executed Wan Yante. In this way, it was equivalent to a complete ruin. The possibility of Wanyan Te's rebellion was eliminated.

It seems that it is time for me to execute these two envoys quietly, but what is the purpose of this special general at this time, and I still seek my own help. Could it be that in this court, besides Wan Yante, is there anyone else who wants to Rebellion failed?

In fact, as for who rebels, Wan Yanchang really doesn't care, anyway, the possibility of the throne falling on his head is not very high, but if someone rebels now, as a general with a large army, he seems to be the leader of all forces at this time. Since this is the object of his struggle, at this time he can take the opportunity to seek his own development and maximize his own interests.

At this time, the nobles of the Kingdom of Jin are different from the time when everyone followed Taizu Emperor Wanyan Agu to fight the world. They are all pursuing the maximization of their own interests. On the contrary, they have forgotten that at this time, there is still a Song Dynasty coveting beside them. .

"This is a good thing. I don't know why the special general came to find this general?" Wan Yanchang asked softly.
