choke element

Chapter 141

No matter how well a play is performed, there will always be an end.

The nobles in Zhongdu City chanted and played for a long time. Seeing that the sky was already dark and several important figures were showing signs of fatigue, the audience said one after another, enough is enough, and we will continue tomorrow.At present, someone suggested that King Sheng should directly settle in the imperial city, but King Sheng of course sternly refused, and chose to return to his old palace.

At that moment, everyone saluted respectfully and watched as King Sheng's car drove away.

Tu Shanyi sat back in the chair.

He was getting old, and his physical strength and energy were declining very quickly. At this time, as soon as his body touched the cushion, the fatigue would hit him like a tidal wave, forcing him to fall into a lethargic sleep wave after wave.

He forced himself up, and said to Zhongxuanzi: "Take some people and stare around the Xuanhua Gate, so that nothing can go wrong tonight... Keep your eyes wide open and stare at me! If Guo Ning does anything, or If Du Shisheng intends to go out and join forces, report it immediately!"

Chong Xuanzi bowed to accept the order.

He asked again: "Who is responsible for protecting King Sheng?"

"It's Guo Ning's companions in Hebei. I heard that one is Miao Daorun and the other is Zhang Rou. They are both big men who lead thousands of troops."

Lead thousands of troops?What's the difference between that and ants?It was really the great weakening of Dajin that made these local tyrants have the opportunity to be among the future emperors.

Tu Danyi had never even heard of these two names.In his overall plan, in the future, the servant Anzhen should be in charge of the Central Forbidden Army and the emperor's bodyguard.

However, right now he really has no way to mobilize these two people. After all, many things can only be assigned step by step according to the rules after being confirmed by the court tomorrow.Fortunately, these two people are just local tyrants, and they have made meritorious service in protecting the king along the way.Tomorrow, it's nothing more than a promise of an official position to satisfy them.

As long as Guo Ning doesn't cause trouble, this night will be safe!
Tu Danyi was really exhausted, he fell into a drowsy sleep, Chong Xuanzi hastily asked someone to cover him with a thin blanket, and returned to Prime Minister You's mansion.

The shoulders fluctuated slightly, sometimes waking up Tu Shanyi, and he vaguely saw Chongxuanzi giving instructions to the subordinates in Youcheng Mansion.Zhiyuan's temperament is still a little edgy. If Jinqing is here, many things can be arranged more properly, but Jinqing doesn't know where he went...

When the group of officials dispersed, Wanyan Congjia's motorcade arrived at Prince Sheng's Mansion.

Wanyan Congjia served as a local military envoy for many years, and never had the chance to return to Zhongdu.Most of his royal family officials, such as Wang Fu, Fu Wei, Chang Shi, Sima, Wen Wen, etc., were appointed by the imperial court, with the mission of checking the royal family, and were stationed in Xiangzhou.

But in the city of Zhongdu, the Prince Sheng’s Mansion was still there, so a small group of subordinate officials stayed in Zhongdu, headed by Wanyan Qingshan slave who joined the army as a recorder, serving Wanyan Congjia’s eldest son Shouzhong, like a hostage.

At this time, Wanyan Shouzhong and Wanyan Qingshannu, together with their servants, met Cong Jia's car at the gate of the palace and led him into the palace.

Shou Zhong waited for a formal visit to his father, looked around from Jia, pointed to a side hall, stepped in, and said: "I have something to discuss with others, you stay away, don't bother me."

Wanyan Shouzhong and the others were all puzzled, but they could only obey King Sheng's order and wait outside the side hall.

Only a tall scholar got off Wanyan Congjia's car, followed Wanyan Congjia in, closed the doors and windows, and lit candles.The light illuminated half of his face, so it turned out that this person was Yila Chucai.

Yicha Chucai asked leisurely: "Your Highness has just seen the appearance of civil and military officials, but in His Highness's heart, how is this generation?"

Wanyan Congjia's face was terribly gloomy.

He has also been in politics for decades, and he is not a fool.After Mingchang, the situation in the court has changed, and he has survived without incident, firstly because of patience, and secondly because of vision.Just now, the loyal attitude of all the civil and military officials can hide from others, how can they hide from him?
The whole matter couldn't be more clear. This coup seems to be Hu Shahu's reckless act. In fact, Hu Shahu is just a fool being used. Many high-ranking officials and nobles in Zhongdu City worked together to get Hu Shahu When used as a knife, Wanyan Yongji was killed!And taking this opportunity, how many political enemies have been eliminated by this group of people!
Chucai Yicha said this earlier, but Wanyan Congjia was still skeptical, thinking that the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty would not be so courageous.But after seeing it with his own eyes, he couldn't believe it.

These bastards really did just that!

Wanyan Yongji is not a good prospect, and Cong Jia doesn't look down on this uncle at all.He always felt that the achievements of Emperor Zhangzong's 20 years of rule were completely ruined by Wanyan Yongji.

But Wanyan Yongji is the emperor of Dajin after all!These people killed Yongji like a child's play, how could they know that they would not kill the next emperor?
At this moment, the throne on the Da'an Hall is like a fire pit, and inside the fire pit are countless shiny blades!
Ever since Jia hadn't sat on it, he felt a great danger.

The temptation of the throne is naturally huge, and it is not impossible to do the thing of flying moths to the flame.

When Cong Jia was appointed as the envoy of Zhangde Jiedu, he secretly had contacts with various political forces such as Wanyan Gang, Tu Danyi, Xu Ding, and even dared to leave the station voluntarily when the court was not in chaos, and went to Zhongdu , because he has long been unable to bear Wanyan Yongji's stupidity.He firmly believes that he can do much better than Wanyan Yongji, so he is suitable to be the emperor of the Great Jin Kingdom.

But when he left Xiangzhou that day, Wanyan Gang's military officials and Tu Danyi's civil officials competed with each other, and besides the Jurchen's two powerful officials, Xu Ding led a group of Han civil servants to work dully, and there were many others. Senior officials couldn't see the situation clearly and chose to protect themselves outside the whirlpool.

If Wanyan Congjia sits on the throne of God, he will naturally be able to calmly balance many forces and control the overall situation with the dignity of the emperor.

The results of it?
Just now, under Xuanhua's sect, what did he see?It was the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty who were attached to the authority of Tu Danyi.Tu Shanyi didn't nod his head, so many people stood there for an hour, not even one dared to speak up!
All the ministers have formed a party with the old man Tudan, what else can the emperor do?
The emperor Wanyan Congjia wants to be is an emperor who holds great power and can rule the world according to his own will, not a puppet in the hands of the officials, let alone one who was abandoned by the officials and conspired by the officials like Yongji Bad luck!
and so……

Wanyan got up from Jia Huoran and took two steps.He looked at Yila Chucai with a smile on his face, and said in a deep voice: "Jin Qing, I understand. But don't dream about it."

Yicha Chucai asked with a smile, "Why did Your Highness say that?"

"Many civil and military officials thought that Guo Ning was a loyal subordinate of Tu Danyi, but I saw it very clearly. That Guo Ning is a vicious tiger, and he will never be controlled by anyone!"

When Wanyan Congjia said this, he gritted his teeth: "Tu Danyi is a veteran of the three dynasties, and he is known for his military and political talents. He is also a famous Confucian scholar, and he will always follow some rules in his actions. Unless it is absolutely necessary, he will not use outrageous means." And that Guo Ning is a brave and ferocious desperado, who took advantage of the chaos of the court to gather party members to gain the power of a wolf and a tiger... Yes, I can't trust the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty. But Guo Liulang, could it be that Is it believable? I haven’t forgotten that it was he who led the army to make a surprise attack on Pingluzhai, which caused so many incidents! One day he was in Zhongdu, and I felt like a thorn in my back!”

"So, Guo Liulang will leave Zhongdu soon."

"You're talking nonsense... what?"

Wanyan was taken aback from Jiameng, and quickly asked: "What did you say? Leave Zhongdu?"

"After the chaos last night, everyone in the court was scheming against each other, and all of them painted faces of loyalty and kindness. But in reality, who knows who is true? Who knows who is false? Your Highness, you can't trust the officials, and the officials are indifferent to each other. Where does the trust come from?"

When Yila Chucai said this, he sighed deeply: "At this time, the court is like a pool of muddy water. Guo Liulang knows that he can't get involved, and he doesn't want to get involved."

Wanyan telegramped from Jia's mind: "What does he want?"

"I'm just looking for a foreign job, so I can have a few years of leisure."

Without Guo Ning, the evil tiger, there will be fewer variables in the capital, which is a good thing!
Wanyan Congjia was overjoyed at first, but suddenly doubted: "But..."

Yicha Chucai cut off his words: "Guo Liulang knows where His Highness is in trouble. Therefore, he will leave two people in Zhongdu. With His Highness's method, it is not difficult to drive these two people. With these two people, Your Highness will not be isolated and helpless in the court hall in the future."

"Which two people?"

"Dingzhou Miao Daorun, Yizhou Zhangrou."

Wanyan Congjia shook his head: "These two are just local thieves, what qualifications do they have..."

"These two, like Guo Liulang, are the forces formed by gathering the rout troops in Monan. They also fought against the Mongolian army in Dianzhong, Bianwu. Now they have 3000 elite soldiers under their command. When the prisoners are reorganized tomorrow, they can expand their army by [-]. .With these [-] people, Your Highness will have confidence."

Wanyan Congjia continued to shake his head: "These two are Guo Ning's allies, I dare not use them."

"The so-called allies are nothing more than a combination of benefits. After a few days, His Highness will become His Majesty. With the honor of the emperor, are you afraid that you will not be able to recruit two generals and two soldiers?"

Wanyan Congjia remained silent.

After a while, he took a deep breath, looked up at Yisa Chucai, his eyes flashed fiercely: "Let the two of them come to see me, I have something to do for them... If I can trust them, they have to take Show sincerity!"

"It's been done."

"what?"

Yira Chucai looked at Wanyan Congjia's gloomy face, feeling a little sad and helpless.He said: "The officials in the court can still be sorted out slowly; but for His Highness, some people are really the source of trouble and must not stay. Taking advantage of these few days, the remnants of Hu Shahu's party are still making trouble, and it is just time to deal with them." gone."

Wanyan Congjia subconsciously nodded: "Okay, Hu Shahu has many remnants, this is a good idea."

At the same time, on the streets of Zhongdu City, the roar of armor hitting and footsteps resounding again.The sound of this army's movement was heard far away, and several garrisons in the city were alarmed, but no one soldier came out to respond.Residents' homes on both sides of the road closed their doors and turned off their lights, and no one came to visit.

Miao Daorun and Zhang Rou led the soldiers to stand in front of a large mansion.

Behind the high wall, there were dogs barking, someone's footsteps, and guards holding bows and knives, thumping up the wooden ladder behind the wall to take precautions.I could hear that it was really flustered.

Miao Daorun sighed, "Is it really good to do this?"

Under the light of the pine torch, Zhang Rou's handsome face appeared distorted.But his voice was very calm: "Guo Liulang did not dare to stay in the Central Capital for a long time. He has his reasons. But we also have our reasons... This opportunity must not be missed! As long as this is done, we will be here in the future. Ning and Jing Anmin are outside, enough to support each other, no one can shake it!"

Miao Daorun was still hesitating, Zhang Rou waved directly: "Go in, no one will be left alive."
