Volume Four, Chapter 89, Under the Doubt of Emperor Chang Duan(1/2)
"Isn't it opening the door to hell?" Yang Luming didn't understand. "But so far, everything Zijun has done is indeed not suspicious at all... Your Majesty..." Yang Luming felt that he was being cautious.
With his temperament, he couldn't tell what was wrong with Zijun that made His Majesty so suspicious.
Besides, this was the strategy decided by the two former emperors mentioned by Emperor Chang Duan.
It just happened to be the generation of Emperor Chang Duan that he had no choice but to shoot the arrow.
"Yes, I suddenly felt this way...remember? We had thought before that there was no bigger pattern than the purpose he told us. But now think about it again, if he wants even us
What?" Emperor Chang Duan looked at Yang Luming meaningfully.
Yang Luming's brows furrowed.
When the master says this, he is not asking for his opinion, but asking him to fulfill his duties as a minister, make suggestions and solve problems.
He thought for a while, but felt a little confused, and said: "Your Majesty... If there is another rift between us and Zijun at this time... I'm afraid it will be very difficult... Especially according to Your Majesty's guess, we don't even know what he wants."
Under the premise that you don’t know what to do.”
"Then why can't the gate of hell be opened?" Emperor Chang Duan asked.
Yang Luming said: "Zijun is currently in the Third Hospital, and Lu Yanjun is still recovering from his injuries... most likely... the people below have received orders, and no one can come... Your Majesty also knows that Lu Yanjun's men
, there are not too many that can be used... Once Lu Yanjun issues such an order before healing, they will definitely not know how to adapt and will only execute it meticulously. It makes sense... Your Majesty is worried about Zijun.
Cooperate with the inner courtyard?”
Emperor Chang Duan said: "That's not to say, he and the inner courtyard and even the underworld are already sworn enemies. If you think about it, after these few actions, he has killed many more doctors from the inner courtyard and underworld soldiers than us.
How much? Just this time, doesn’t Yang Aiqing feel that the provocation is serious?”
"Instigation?" Yang Luming was stunned.
Do we still need to start a fight between us and the inner courtyard?
Emperor Chang Duan picked up the tea, took a sip, and said: "What I said is not too accurate. It should be to drive away wolves and tigers? Jiemen's tactics should never be exposed when attacking the mere three courtyards.
Although it was indeed a big scene that day, the Third Courtyard was not up to par. This tactic of going back and forth through the gate should be used in the decisive battle. Yang Aiqing, you should know that this tactic can only be used once.
"
Yang Luming thought for a moment and immediately agreed with Emperor Chang Duan's point of view.
The use of the boundary gate in this way really caught the inner courtyard by surprise.
But once they suffer a loss, they will be on guard next time.
Not to mention the decisive battle in the future. People will definitely make special tactical arrangements for this.
Sure enough, His Majesty's thoughts and concerns are completely different from mine...
Yang Luming said: "Then your Majesty, please tell me clearly which direction the minister should plan next."
Emperor Chang Duan must make a decision on this kind of matter.
Emperor Chang Duan said: "This is where I am hesitant. How can something like intuition be used in the context of national policy? But that premonition is really bad. Indeed, as you said, what Zijun is doing now
There is nothing wrong with what he did, and he fulfilled the agreement very well. And... if he doubts Zijun... then it must involve... Lu Yanjun... He can't do this alone...
…”
"Is it possible that Lu Yanjun was also deceived by him?" Yang Luming asked.
"Even if you are cheated... you are betraying me..." Emperor Chang Duan sighed and took another sip of tea.
Yang Luming nodded. For an emperor, it is not only about what you think, but also about what you do...
"Then I will give it a try in front of the Ghost Gate later. If I can talk to Lu Yanjun in person and test his tone, I should be able to gain something." Yang Luming said.
Emperor Chang Duan said: "No, Lu Yanjun is also Yanjun after all. He will notice it immediately if your breath rises and falls slightly. I have to do this myself. Now we can only wait and wait."
Please contact us..."
This is tantamount to Emperor Chang Duan admitting that he has no better way now.
"By the way, Zijun sent me news earlier that Huang Yixin, the vice-president of Li Qiyuan, is a bit mysterious and doesn't know what to do. Are you still following up on this matter?" Emperor Chang Duan said.
a topic.
Yang Luming nodded and said: "Your Majesty, we are investigating this matter. Judging from the current situation, Huang Yixin first went to Li Sanyuan, then to Han'an, and then went to Li Sanyuan. He didn't stay for long, and
I quietly returned to Liqiyuan, followed by a trip to Damawan, and then non-stop to Lijiang, and finally
Then he went to the Third Courtyard. During this period, he was briefly out of sight, but according to reports from overseas spies, he seemed to have gone to see Santos, the leader of the Five Nations Wizard Group. At the moment, we dare not contact Santos, and the following
The person is not high enough to talk to Santos, otherwise, we can start from this aspect."
Emperor Chang Duan closed his eyes. After a while, he slowly opened his eyes and said, "He is following Wang Xi's trajectory..."
"Looking for Zijun's true identity?" Yang Luming said.
Emperor Chang Duan nodded and said: "The possibility is very high."
Yang Luming's eyes suddenly lit up and he said: "If that's the case, then why don't we..."
Emperor Chang Duan raised his head, stretched his body, and said: "It's feasible. We can't let Zijun set the pace. We should still follow the favorite routine of our monarchs and ministers. Release some clues to the inner courtyard in a subtle way, oh, no, release them directly to Huang Yixin
Let him find clues to Zijun. We can’t let him go too smoothly. In this way, we can just see his reaction."
Yang Luming bent down and accepted the order.
As long as your Majesty gives clear instructions, it will be easy to handle.
"Thank you for your hard work, Yang Aiqing. Next, you will be busy. In this way, I will help you share some of the burden. I will think about how to design Wang Xi and Zhang Xiaoyi." Emperor Chang Duan said.
Yang Luming hurriedly said: "Your Majesty has betrayed an old minister. It is the duty of a minister to share your Majesty's worries. This matter can be left to my young disciple Tang Fu. I believe he will be very happy to accept this errand. And it's just right, too.
It's his turn to exercise
After all, in the future, your Majesty will need Tang Fu, just like Wei Chen, a counselor, not a warrior. In the bloody battle of Han'an, Wei Chen's mistake led to him being captured by the Song Emperor, causing His Majesty to lose all face...
The humble minister will die..."
Emperor Chang Duan didn't take it seriously and said: "It was a bloody battle in Han'an... I remember... but everyone in the inner courtyard surrendered..."
Yang Luming originally wanted to say that that time, the Liyuan only admitted defeat, not surrender.
Moreover, in the end, it just turned into a few disciples of Zhao Jiajun surrendering, and it became a completely private matter.
But at this time, no matter what, he would not give any more words to remind him. He just said: "It all depends on your majesty's wisdom and martial arts... to clean up the mess for the humble minister... I am really ashamed..."
Emperor Chang Duan stood up, came to the outside of the palace, pointed in the direction of the small building in the mountain, and said: "Restore Yu'er's status, and then after a while, I will write a letter to the Central Committee, and the two provinces will draft a decree. I want to canonize Yu'er.
By the way, please rehabilitate my brother Wang."
Yang Luming was shocked when he heard this.
He knew that Emperor Chang Duan's move should have set a tone for Ying Ying's affairs. He would not hold her accountable for leaking secrets, and by the way, he would win over Ying Ying and show her goodwill, so that she would be better in her subsequent actions.
She was determined to work for him, but...
Rehabilitate Yingying’s father?
How can anyone rehabilitate someone who rebelled and raised an army?
It's not that this kind of thing can't happen.
He knew why Ying Ying's father launched an army back then. It was all a joke between the two brothers.
Now, Ying Ying's father is still living the life of a wealthy man somewhere unknown to him.
It's just that... even if there is to be redress, it should be done by the next generation of emperors after Emperor Nagatan's great success...
This is the most common method used when a new emperor first comes to the throne.
How could he do this when Emperor Chang Duan himself was in power?
Isn’t this a slap in the face?
Yang Luming considered his words carefully and said: "Your Majesty is really concerned about your young disciple... uh... I wonder how your Majesty will confer the title of princess?"
He knew that maybe, His Majesty would even directly canonize her as a princess!
Emperor Chang Duan said playfully: "Princess? No, I want to make her a prince!"
Yang Luming was dumbfounded.
Prince!?
He originally wanted to follow Emperor Chang Duan's wishes and get the first thing done properly, and then raise some objections to the redress. But who would have expected that this first thing would be even more difficult?
.
Canonizing a guilty minister as a prince?
Oh, no...these two things are one and the same.
As long as she vindicates Ying Ying's father, she will naturally no longer be the queen of the guilty minister.
Similarly, Ying Ying's canonization as a prince is also paving the way for her father's rehabilitation...
Just like this, it will inevitably cause an uproar in the court...
"Your Majesty... you just said that these are troubled times... the court must be stable... I think... I feel..."
To be continued...
