I want to ruin the country

Chapter 26 You must not lose your life in a muddle!

Lianxin thought carefully, is it necessary for the emperor to plot against her?

The lives of all people in the world are in the hands of the emperor. Whatever he wants, it only takes a word!

"Lian Xin, I'm giving you one last chance. If you were coerced, tell me and I won't blame you. But if not, or you don't tell me, there's nothing I can do!"

After saying that, Yining sat down and waited silently. He had enough confidence to make Lianxin speak!

Lian Xin's heart was boiling. Thinking about her own situation, she realized that she had committed the crime of killing nine generations of her family, and no one in her family could escape.

If I tell the truth, will the emperor spare my family out of consideration for the fact that I was forced into a coercive situation?

After thinking it over again and again, she made up her mind and suddenly knelt down and said,

"Your Majesty, I will tell you everything!"

After a while, Yining walked out of the house and said,

"Take good care of her and don't make things difficult for her!"

Return to Xianfu Palace, sit in the rocking chair and close your eyes to rest!

He thought to himself that there were undercurrents in the court and some people were dissatisfied with him being the emperor. What should he do?

In fact, this kind of thing is not new in all dynasties. The "Xuanwu Gate Incident" of Li Shimin in the Tang Dynasty and the "Candle Shadow and Axe Sound" of Zhao Guangyi in the Song Dynasty were all struggles for imperial power. The attraction of being an emperor is too great!

For example, Yue Fei, who was loyal to his country, did not die unjustly.

Originally, Zhao Gou had already firmly established his rule over the world and owned it. He was living a very happy life, and as for whether his father and brother were sitting in a well and watching the world from afar in Wuguo City, it was none of his business!

But then came Yue Fei, a man with ability but low emotional intelligence, who kept clamoring to "attack Huanglong directly and invite the two emperors back to the court."

Do you think that if these two emperors come back, will Zhao Gou still be able to remain the emperor?

Zhao Gou was really afraid that the invincible and brave Yue Wumu would bring back his father and brother, causing him to hand over his throne to others again, so he sent twelve golden medals to recall Yue Fei.

Then Yue Fei, his son Yue Yun, and his son-in-law Zhang Xian were killed at Fengbo Pavilion on the charge of "false accusations"!

The person who carried out this act was Prime Minister Qin Hui. He deserves to be infamous for eternity, but the person who really wanted Yue Fei to die was the emperor. Qin Hui was just doing things for the emperor!

If you still don’t believe this, let’s talk about the brothers Zhu Qizhen and Zhu Qiyu of the Ming Dynasty!

Ming Yingzong Zhu Qizhen personally led the army to fight, but was defeated and captured by Yesen in Tumu Fortress. After that, his younger brother Zhu Qiuyu became the emperor.

In the end, Yesen saw that capturing Zhu Qizhen would have no impact on the Ming Dynasty, so he released Zhu Qizhen.

The former emperor has returned, but the current emperor Zhu Qiyu does not want to return the throne to his brother.

Zhu Qiyu made his brother the emperor emeritus, but Zhu Qizhen was unwilling to be a worthless emperor emeritus with no position or power, as it also involved his own descendants!

So, he tried every possible means to take the throne back.

In the eyes of the emperor, owning the world is far more important than conscience and family affection!

Therefore, whether or not to become the emperor, or whether the people below follow the right person, is a matter of great importance, involving the prosperity and wealth of future generations. How can one not fight for it?

Yining understood these things very well. Since he had traveled through time and space and became the emperor, he had to find a way to survive and complete his mission. He couldn't lose his life in a muddle.

He opened his eyes and saw Li Baoquan and several eunuchs standing by in fear. Suddenly he thought of something and said,

"Li Baoquan, you stay and make them all leave!"

After everyone left, Yining asked,

"What would you do if I were stabbed to death just now?"

Li Baoquan fell to his knees, tears streaming down his face.

"Your Majesty, this servant deserves death!"

"I'm not blaming you, I'm just asking what you think!"

Li Baoquan choked up and said,

"Your Majesty! We are so scared! If Your Majesty is killed, our world will fall apart. Woohoo!"

Yining thought that this guy's acting was too good. Others couldn't act like the character, but he didn't look like he was acting at all. His acting was so sincere and heartfelt as if he had lost his parents!

He thought again and understood. If the emperor really died, these people's good days would be over. A new emperor means new ministers, and the same goes for eunuchs.

It is not easy to crawl to the emperor's side to serve him. If there is another emperor, who knows where they will be taken, and it is unknown whether they can survive!

Yining knew that if there were a few people left in this world who were unwilling to die, these eunuchs would definitely be among them!

"Li Baoquan, can I trust you?"

Li Baoquan quickly knelt down,

"I swear to the heavens that I will obey the emperor for the rest of my life. If I break this oath, I will be struck by lightning and fall into the eighteen levels of hell!"

Yining Road,

"Grind the ink!"

Li Baoquan quickly ground the ink.

Yining picked up a pen and wrote a letter. When the ink was slightly dry, he folded it, sealed the envelope himself, handed it to Li Baoquan and said,

"I have a confidential mission for you. Tomorrow you will deliver this letter to Lord Su Shun. Don't let anyone else know. Do you understand?"

Seeing the emperor's seriousness, Li Baoquan did not dare to neglect and bowed.

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will never make any mistakes. If a fourth person finds out, you have taken my head!"

After explaining the matter, Yining thought again that she had just arrived at the palace and was unfamiliar with the place, so she needed people she could trust and rely on, which was what later generations called team building.

Although these eunuchs are not considered normal people in the eyes of others, and people contemptuously call them pickled dogs, if used well, they are also a force that cannot be ignored!

Having made up his mind, Yining said,

"Call them in!"

Several eunuchs came in and knelt down.

Yining Road,

"Li Baoquan, you have saved me today and I will reward you with 100 taels of silver. The rest of you will be rewarded with 50 taels of silver!"

Li Baoquan quickly knelt down and kowtowed.

"Your Majesty, it was Hongxiu who saved you. I dare not take credit for it!"

Yining Road,

"You all have merits, but didn't you also get slapped?"

Li Baoquan's eyes narrowed with joy.

"Your Majesty, one slap costs fifty taels, or you can slap me a few more times!"

Yining raised his leg and kicked,

"Get lost! The Emperor is broke as hell!"

The eunuchs were very happy. The emperor was so nice today that he even joked with them. This was impossible before!

Yining asked,

"Li Baoquan, how many disciples do you have?"

"Your Majesty, eight!"

Yining Road,

"Considering your loyalty to me, I have decided to grant you a promotion!"

"Lift...lift the nationality?"

Yining Road,

"Yes, from today on, you will join the Zhengbai Banner and become my bondservants!"

Everyone was stunned. Eunuchs were not considered complete people and could not be buried in the ancestral tomb after death.

The emperor actually promoted them to become members of the banner, and even to the top three banners. They couldn't believe their ears!
