Imperial Palace, imperial study. Pinshu.com (..)
Zhuge Weiming is anxiously waiting for the news of Pingyang city.
"Report..." A soldier hurried in and said happily to Zhuge Weiming, "Lord, Pingyang has been held, King Zhao and they have retreated."
Zhuge Weiming immediately stood up from his chair happily, "really?"
The soldier immediately bowed down and said, "it''s true. The second prince of the white tiger Kingdom arrived in time with the army and surrounded the king of Zhao''s army, which forced them to retreat."
Zhuge Weiming heard a faint light flash in Yan''s eyes. This time, he owed xuanyuanhao a favor.
A little eunuch walked into the imperial study and bowed to Zhuge Weiming, "tell the prince that General Yang Qiong next to the second prince of the white tiger Kingdom wants to see you."
Zhuge Weiming narrowed his eyes and frowned, "Xuan."
"Yes." Hearing the speech, the little eunuch bowed down and couldn''t go. After a while, he led a burly general in.
The general walked straight towards Zhuge Weiming without squinting.
Zhuge Weiming looked at the dignified face of the general and frowned. Yang Qiong, xuanyuanhao''s most powerful general, was also because of him. Xuanyuanhao was able to bring 100000 troops from Xuanwu. This man was not as big as he looked.
Yang Qiong walked up to Zhuge Weiming and bowed slightly to him, "see the Regent of Xuanwu."
Zhuge Weiming looked at Yang Qiong and coughed softly, "why did General Yang come to see the king at this time, but the second prince has something to do?"
Yang Qiong bowed back when she heard the speech, "tell the Lord that it''s our second prince who wants to talk to the Lord."
Zhuge Weiming suddenly frowned when he heard the speech, and a touch of displeasure flashed in his eyes, "what words?" There was a slight anger in the cold voice.
Feeling Zhuge''s unclear displeasure, Yang Qiong was still neither humble nor arrogant, "our second prince, please don''t forget your promise."
Zhuge Weiming''s face was cold when he heard the speech, and he snorted coldly, "my king''s words are perfect. Your two princes are too mean to spend a gentleman''s belly, not to mention that the king''s edicts have been given to him. What else should he worry about?"
Yang Qiong immediately lowered her eyes and said, "don''t misunderstand the Lord. Our second prince has no intention of not believing the Lord, but just wants to remind the Lord."
Zhuge Weiming was more angry when he heard Yan''s eyes. He xuanyuanhao was something and deserved to remind him that if he didn''t have some effect, he wouldn''t be able to bear the bird''s breath.
Zhuge Weiming took a deep breath, collected his emotions, looked at Yang Qiong''s eyes and narrowed slightly, "go back and tell you two princes that the king wrote down the Pingyang incident this time. The king will never forget his credit and let him guard Pingyang at ease. When the king''s success is completed, it is also the time for him to return to the white tiger."
Yang Qiong bowed again when she heard the speech. "It''s so good. I''ll leave at the end." Yang Qiong turned and strode away.
After Yang Qiong left, Zhuge Weiming was so angry that he directly swept all the things on the table to the ground. Damn xuanyuanhao, damn xiahouyu and damn Lian Taichu dared to climb on his head and shit. It''s true that Zhuge Weiming is a bully. It seems that he must ascend the throne as soon as possible. When he takes the throne, he must kill them all.
In the Ruyang assembly hall, Xia Houyu sat first, followed by Lian Taichu, Fang PENGYUAN, and a number of generals.
Xia houpei looked at Fang Peng, who was the first on his left hand, "military division, you can find out who commanded the strange army."
Fang PENGYUAN immediately got up and said, "tell the Lord, according to the information investigated by his subordinates, it was xuanyuanhao, the second prince of the white tiger country, who helped Zhuge last night."
Xuanyuanhao? Xia houxuan frowned fiercely when he heard the speech, and a touch of worry flashed in his eyes. If the people of the white tiger country intervened, it would be complicated. Now the white tiger, rosefinch and green dragon are connected. If they all help Zhuge unknown, he has no chance of winning at all.
Lian Taichu also looked puzzled when he heard the speech, "why should the second prince of the white tiger country intervene in the affairs of our Xuanwu country?" The four countries have always kept the well water away from the river. Why did the white tiger suddenly intervene in the civil strife in Xuanwu? Was it because the little emperor attacked the white tiger and frowned on the white tiger leader last time, so he sent the second prince to take revenge in Xuanwu? Lian Taichu thought and broke out in a cold sweat.
It seems that Xia Houyu and Lian Taichu are worried, Fang PENGYUAN explained, "According to the news from the spy, xuanyuanhao was expelled from the country by the Lord of the white tiger for plotting against the country leader and usurping the throne some time ago. He is no longer the second prince of the white tiger. He came to our Xuanwu this time to take refuge in Zhuge. His subordinates speculated that they must have reached an invisible agreement."
Xia Houyu was a little relieved when he heard the speech. It''s not just that white tiger wants to intervene.
Suddenly thinking of something, Xia houpei raised his eyes and looked at Fang Peng far away, "how many people and horses does this xuanyuanhao bring?"
Fang PENGYUAN immediately replied, "not much, only 100000."
Xia houpei nodded slightly when he heard the speech. He wanted to have a fallen prince who wouldn''t have too many troops.
Xia Houyu frowned and pondered for a moment, turned his eyes and looked at the people under him. "We all saw the situation last night. Do you have any good countermeasures?"
Hearing the speech, the people looked at each other, and soon a general stood up and bowed, "my subordinates thought that they still had to find a way to capture Pingyang. As long as they occupied Pingyang again, the king''s great event will be accomplished."
Xia Houyu nodded when he heard the speech. He didn''t say good or bad, but turned to one side of Lian Taichu and said, "what does general Lian think?"
Lian Taichu got up and said, "my subordinates thought that the prince should return to the Imperial City as soon as possible. With the unknown temperament of Zhuge, he may ascend the throne in advance."
Xia houpei frowned when he heard the speech, and a dignified flash flashed in his eyes. He must not let Zhuge Weiming ascend the throne, otherwise everything he did would be meaningless.
Fang PENGYUAN also said, "my subordinates think what general Lian said is very true. The prince should return to the Imperial City as soon as possible to prevent Zhuge Weiming from ascending the throne. As for Pingyang, the prince can hand it over to general Lian."
Xia Houyu nodded when he heard the speech, got up and bowed slightly to Lian Taichu, "in that case, the matter of Pingyang will be handed over to general Lian."
Lian Tai immediately moved away and bowed slightly to Xia Houyu, "my subordinates will do their best."
The next day, early in the morning, Zhuge Weiming went directly to the Xuanwu hall in his Dragon Robe.
The civil and military officials in the Xuanwu hall looked at Zhuge Weiming dressed in dragon robes, their faces changed greatly, and they all began to whisper.
"Are my eyes dazzled? Why is the Regent wearing a dragon robe?"
"The Regent is too bold. He used to wear Python robes every day, but now he even dares to wear dragon robes."
"Treachery, treachery..."
Listening to the whispers of civil and military officials, Zhuge Weiming flashed a touch of displeasure in his eyes, coughed softly and said loudly, "everyone knows that the emperor has been missing for many days. Yesterday, the king of Japan received the news that the soldiers on the northwest border have found the emperor''s body."
When they heard the speech, the pot burst open.
"Is what he said true? Has the emperor really died?"
"Is it true? How can the emperor say it''s gone if it''s gone?"
"It may be true. I heard that the Empress Dowager passed out a few days ago?
After listening to everyone''s words, Zhuge Weiming winked at the little eunuch next to him. The little eunuch immediately quietly withdrew from the Xuanwu hall.
After a while, two small eunuchs carried a stretcher into the Xuanwu hall. The stretcher was covered with a layer of white cloth. Under the white cloth, it looked like a person, only eight or nine years old.
Two small eunuchs gently lifted the stretcher onto the jade steps and bowed back.
The crowd looked at the stretcher and looked at each other.
Suddenly, Zhuge Weiming knelt down on the stretcher, "emperor, it''s the king who is sorry for you and didn''t save you in time..." Sad voice with a little choking, people can not hear the true and false.
When the ministers saw Zhuge Weiming kneeling down, they all knelt down.
The emperor really died.
The emperor is only eight years old. What a pity!
The emperor died. What about the Empress Dowager and Xuanwu?
The ministers kneeling on the ground had different thoughts. Some showed their true feelings, looked sad, some pretended to wipe tears and cry, some looked suspicious and their eyes were shining.
After crying for a while, Zhuge Weiming stood up, looked at the ministers, and said with a sad face, "the king has a great responsibility for the emperor''s death. The king is ashamed of his entrustment to the former Emperor. As the emperor''s close uncle, the king has the responsibility to guard the Xuanwu for the emperor. The country must not have a king for one day. The king has decided to ascend the throne today."
As soon as Zhuge Weiming''s words were finished, the ministers became excited again.
The prime minister Fang ye, who was the first of all officials, got up and looked at Zhuge Weiming and said, "the Regent''s words, the old minister thought it was inappropriate. The emperor has just died. What we need to do now is to find out the cause of the emperor''s death and deal with the things behind the emperor. As for the fact of electing a new emperor, we are not in a hurry."
Zhuge didn''t know that there was a cold light in his eyes. Before he could speak, the Minister of rites stood up and said, "what the prime minister said is very true. Although the emperor is young, he is also our Xuanwu emperor. We must not end it so hastily."
"The accession to the throne is a matter of great importance. Weichui believes that it needs to be discussed before he can decide who will ascend the throne." The Ministry of rites is followed by the Ministry of war.
Zhuge was angry when he heard the speech. "Bold, Lord Qin, do you mean that the king is not qualified to inherit the throne?" The Minister of the Ministry of war used to be Lian Taichu''s deputy general. In the past, he was neutral and didn''t stand in any team. Now Lian Taichu followed Xia Houyu, and he stood fast.
The Minister of war listened to the unknown roar of Zhuge and lowered his eyes without the slightest fear on his face.
Seeing that Zhuge was not clearly angry, the Minister of rites immediately came out and said, "the Regent calmed down his anger. The minister thought that the new emperor should not be in a hurry to ascend the throne for a while. How can he choose a day? It''s too hasty to ascend the throne in such a hurry."
"Lord Zhao is here!" Just when the atmosphere of the Xuanwu hall was dignified, the eunuch''s singing sounded outside the door.
