Chapter 1066 1067 [The right path in the world is the vicissitudes of life] (4)

Inner Temple.

Emperor Kaiping was lying on the dragon bed, looking very weak, but he was not as breathless as before.

Although he is not a top martial arts master, he has worked hard when he was young, and his understanding of his own body is as good as those of the imperial doctors. The gravel stimulated by the explosives hurt his heart and other vital organs. Such injuries are no longer something that the imperial doctors can do.

In the scope of treatment, he asked Gu Hongmiao to practice the secret method of golden needles and drink poison to quench thirst to extend his life.

The palace was very quiet, with only Concubine Wu serving beside her.

Tears were clearly visible on her face, but she did not dare to cry anymore because Gu Hongmiao repeatedly warned that His Majesty cannot bear any stimulation now, otherwise the condition will deteriorate rapidly if the wound is torn apart.

Walking to the dragon bed and carefully tucking Emperor Kai Ping into bed, she tried her best to keep her expression gentle and calm.

Emperor Kaiping turned his head slightly and indicated with his eyes: "Sit down."

Concubine Wu sat down next to the bed and said softly: "Your Majesty, the imperial doctor said that you can recover after resting for a while."

Emperor Kaiping smiled with difficulty, but did not expose her white lie. He just said calmly: "When the explosion happened, I suddenly thought of a past event."

Concubine Wu was well aware of the Emperor's tenacity, and almost nothing in this world could shake it. Moreover, it was obvious that he had something important to explain in letting her stay, so she said softly: "I wonder what your Majesty is thinking of?"

Emperor Kaiping said leisurely: "It was the fourth year of Kaiping. When Pei Yue just went to Lingzhou, he was ambushed by the descendants of the Chen family at Qishan Chong, and he almost died there. The secret report of Taishitai Pavilion once mentioned that Pei Yue led the Zangfeng

The guards entered the valley, and then the rocks on both sides were blown down by explosives, and dozens of people in the rear army were buried."

Concubine Wu was so smart that she immediately thought of a frightening possibility, and her eyes couldn't help but look slightly panicked.

Upon seeing this, Emperor Kaiping comforted him and said, "Don't worry, I asked you to stay because there are some things I can only tell you, and I can't tell Liu Xian yet."

The words "last words" came to Wu Guifei's mind, and tears flowed down uncontrollably.

Emperor Kaiping wanted to raise his hand to wipe it for her, but found that he could not lift his arm, and his eyes finally showed a bit of anger.

Concubine Wu quickly leaned down, held Emperor Kaiping's hand and brushed her face.

Emperor Kaiping looked complicated and said softly: "This situation was decided by me and Mo Haoli a few years ago. The reason why I was able to ascend the throne at that time was because Wang Pingzhang sent people to poison the second emperor brother. In order to stabilize the situation of the court, I had no choice but to

Without relying on his power, he continued to place people in the army. To this day, I don’t know how many powerful generals are on his side."

He paused and sighed: "For example, Guo Linxi from Xuanhua Camp, Liu Dingyuan from Dingxi Camp, Lan Yu from Yaoshan Camp, and even loyal people like Luo Huanzhang will become rebels."

Concubine Wu listened quietly, and then said angrily, "Your Majesty, why did Silent Cloud rebel?"

Emperor Kaiping's eyes were filled with sadness. After a moment of silence, he said: "You can see it too. In fact, it is not difficult to guess. Without the help of Silent Cloud, Wang Pingzhang would not have been able to do this with only the internal agents in the Forbidden Army. The reason why he betrayed

I think I can’t let go of the accidental murder of his son.”

Concubine Wu was slightly startled. A very vague figure of a young man appeared in her mind, and then she said in disbelief: "Isn't that an accident?"

Emperor Kaiping looked forward and said with some difficulty: "I didn't know about it at first. It was after Shen Wende was killed that Wang Pingzhang reported it privately. He told me that Silent Cloud was Pei Zhen's right-hand man. Since he surrendered to me, he must Be a lonely minister wholeheartedly. The child Shen Wende has shown extraordinary talents since he was a child. Except for his inability to practice martial arts, he is extremely good in other aspects. At that time, Silent Cloud intended to let him enter Taishitai Pavilion, so Wang Pingzhang Then he became murderous."

Concubine Wu said in confusion: "Your Majesty just didn't avenge Shen Moyun for killing his son, but shouldn't his real enemy be Wang Pingzhang?"

Emperor Kaiping said: "I have just figured it out. Wang Pingzhang put the blame on me to seek help from Silent Cloud. But Silent Cloud obviously sensed something was wrong, so he killed two birds with one stone by killing two birds with one stone. Not only did he hide a lot from me, We also used the same method to deal with Wang Pingzhang for key intelligence."

Concubine Wu clenched her hands sadly. She did not think that the emperor around her was faultless, but it must be known that the growing strength of Daliang in the past ten years was not only due to Emperor Kaiping's diligence and love for the people, and the promotion of many famous ministers and generals, but also his incompetence Because of his own likes and dislikes, court disputes often arose. When he promoted Silent Cloud, he originally wanted to appease the founding prince, and given the relationship between Silent Cloud and Pei Zhen, Wang Pingzhang's approach was normal.

It can only be said that everyone stands in a different position and standpoint, and it is really difficult to distinguish between right and wrong.

Emperor Kaiping continued: "The Luan Yi Guards are divided into two parts, light and dark. The light half is led by Chen An. After this assassination, I believe he can dig out the sand mixed in by Taige and the military and control it in the future." Kyoto is escorting Liu Xian. I gave half of the manpower secretly to Mo Haoli when I first came to the throne. Even if everyone in the court would rebel against me, Mo Haoli would not."

Concubine Wu suddenly became a little nervous.

Emperor Kaiping looked at her gently and said calmly: "After my death, Mo Haoli will sit in court for Liu Xian for a while, and at the same time, he will gradually hand over Luan Yiwei to your hands. I have never touched these things. Man, even if the storms are dangerous these days, because this is the last trump card I leave to you and Liu Xian."

Concubine Wu said sadly: "Your Majesty..."

Emperor Kaiping shook his head and said: "Don't be sad, it's not the right time yet. Remember, I have never revealed this card, because it is composed of dead soldiers that I have painstakingly cultivated over the past seventeen years, and is of no use to the strategy itself. .In the future, if a powerful official threatens you mother and son, and Liu Xian cannot use the emperor's mental skills to balance him, he can send out these dead men to kill him."

Concubine Wu nodded, and she suddenly remembered a past event.

Last year, when the rumors about the marriage to Pei Yue in the palace were rampant, Liu Xian went to the palace to intercede for Pei Yue. Emperor Kaiping once asked him what if Pei Yue was in great difficulty in the future. Liu Xian's answer surprised her. .

"My son will gather all his strength to kill him directly."

No wonder Emperor Kaiping seemed very pleased at that time.

Concubine Wu asked: "Your Majesty, Mr. Mo's physical condition may not last long. How should the remaining six auxiliary ministers be treated?"

Emperor Kaiping stared thoughtfully and said slowly: "After Mo Haoli left, Luo Ting took over as the chief auxiliary minister, and Han Gongduan was appointed as the right governor of the East Palace. Guliang was promoted to the left military aircraft of the West Palace, and Xiao Jin took over as the right military aircraft. Within three years, Let Gu Liang resign. Li Zi will still be in charge of the Forbidden Army. As for Pei Yue... I will personally tell him some things."

Concubine Wu bowed her head in response. Seeing the obvious tiredness on his face, she said with concern: "Your Majesty, please take a rest first."

Emperor Kaiping blinked.

Concubine Wu stood up and left the palace, summoning the palace servants and the eunuch to come in and serve her.

However, Emperor Kaiping could not sleep.

Some people and events came to mind in his mind, such as the gunpowder that almost killed Pei Yue in the Qishan charge, and the internal eunuch Liu Bao who told him that Empress Chen was about to commit suicide.

And the young woman next to Queen Chen who looks very similar to Chen Qingchen.

I think it was Chen Xizhi.

"What's your role in this?"

Emperor Kaiping muttered to himself silently, as if Pei Yue was right in front of him at this moment.
