Chapter 858: From the Dragon
Wu Qianshi's tone was actually very plain.
But there was murderous intent in these words.
Those who follow it will prosper, and those who go against it will perish. Your future destiny will only be today.
No one can think about it. Of course, if you stand in the wrong team, you will definitely have to pay a painful price in the future. This price is absolutely unbearable for ordinary people.
Zhang Ren's face was blue and white. Even he had to consider these words at this time.
But then, he smiled: "His Highness Beijing was so angry. Did he really treat himself as the emperor?"
Zhang Ren was quite nervous. He knew in his heart that Chen Kaizhi's words were not just threats.
The real money was taken out. This was a huge sum of money, and Zhang Ren himself might not be able to control it. So what about the other governors? Can the other governors control it?
Since the benefits of obeying Chen Kaizhi are obviously shown, they have made it clear, real money and silver, and they are not real anymore, so... Think about it from the perspective of others, another path to confront Chen Kaizhi, what Chen Kaizhi said, destroying you all over the family will naturally not be fake.
Chen Kaizhi always said that he would never break his promise. If he really violated him, his fate might be to destroy the whole family.
But Zhang Ren is still undecided. After all, he has a good relationship with the Yang family in Guanzhong and has chosen Chen Kaizhi now. If this time the crown prince ascended the throne, wouldn’t the Hongnong Zhang family beg for trouble?
Mr. Wu seemed to have seen through his thoughts at a glance, without any hesitation or timidity, and then said to Zhang Ren word by word: "Yes, King Beijing is the emperor!"
His words made Zhang Ren stunned.
Even the Empress Dowager was in control of the situation and did not dare to kick the puppet Chen Wuji away.
This Chen Kaizhi...
It's really...
Mr. Wu looked at Zhang Ren coldly. Seeing that he was stunned, he slowly spoke: "As for the so-called crown prince, he has been killed. Don't count on him. What can he do for you? It's useless."
"What?" Zhang Renyi was stunned and couldn't help but say, "Dare you dare to kill him?"
Mr. Wu was very calm and said in a calm tone: "The King of Beijing said that starting from today, there is no one in this world that cannot be killed. The same sentence: Those who follow it will prosper, and those who go against it will perish. The Empress Dowager wants to let the crown prince enter the palace. Then the so-called crown prince will miss the affairs of His Highness Beijing. King of Beijing does not like the stones under his feet, so he naturally has to kick it away. Now, King of Beijing has led his troops into the palace. Where can I go? Governor Zhang chooses his own choice."
He paused, looked straight at Zhang Ren and smiled faintly.
"But... the so-called good birds choose trees to live in. His Highness Beijing has always loved to make good relationships, but he will never show mercy to his enemies. Governor Zhang must think carefully."
Mr. Wu seemed impatient: "The governor has not had much time!"
Zhang Ren's face was unstable, and he found that he was hesitating.
This would not allow him to hesitate, and he suddenly said, "You are the only one in the Jinyiwei who contacted the governors of the battalions in Beijing?"
Mr. Wu only smiled at him: "What do the governor think?"
It was not confirmed in person, but Zhang Ren understood that his own question was simply nonsense.
I think all the governors and generals in each battalion are making choices. What is placed before us is both threats, touching wealth, and promises for the future.
What he really thinks is not the current choice, but how others will choose?
If I am still moved, what about the others? The Zhang family is still closer to the Yang family and hesitated. Will the others still be determined to stand with the Yang family?
If everyone else had collected the money, he chose to go to the same path with the Yang family. With the Sanqing Camp, can the Empress Dowager turn the tables?
This is definitely not possible.
What's more... the crown prince is dead, which is enough to show the determination of King Beijing. He dares to kill the crown prince. Who can guarantee that the Jinyiwei has sneaked into his ten thousand-year-old hometown. He just waited for a quick report and told him that the whole family would be destroyed.
The surname Chen is so cruel!
He finally figured it out, picked up a stack of treasure money from the desk, and then stuffed it into his sleeve. He raised his eyes expressionlessly and looked at Wu Qianshi with a look. Wu Qianshi smiled: "Governor Zhang is really happy! Very good, come in."
As he said that, he smiled. Outside this tent, there was a deputy general and guerrilla Xu Bu coming in.
Zhang Ren looked at the deputy general and guerrillas who came in, and looked shocked. Both of them were all generals under his account. Unexpectedly, when he talked with Wu Chenshi, they were waiting outside.
Seeing that the two bowed to Wu Chenshi, Zhang Ren understood everything.
The Jinyiwei bought it not only him, the governor, but also someone in the Sanqing Camp was bribed.
And these people are already determined to go with Chen Kaizhi.
When Wu Chenshi came, he was fully prepared. If he had not collected the money today, then the deputy general and guerrillas might have taken the opportunity to come in and directly seized the military power of the governor and control the Sanqing Camp.
Thinking of this, Zhang Ren felt cold on his back, and he couldn't help but be glad that he had figured it out temporarily, otherwise he might have become an unjust soul. He raised his eyes lightly, but saw Mr. Wu smiled: "I'll ask Governor Zhang Haihan."
"You..." Zhang Ren did not dare to be angry, but he couldn't help but say, "You are such a good method."
"Where?" Wu Chenshi shook his head and smiled, "But everyone in this world has a price. If Governor Zhang does not accept this price, then there will naturally be people in the Sanqing Camp who are willing to take this silver. However, there are not much else in the Beijing Palace, but there are more silver. Governor Zhang finally made a wise choice. Now, everyone is happy. Otherwise, there will always be some regrets when a camp change occurs. Governor, it's not too early, and it's time to do it."
Mr. Wu looked at Zhang Ren with a deep smile.
Zhang Ren already understood that he had no room to be sloppy and had to do things after collecting the money. He took a deep breath and nodded. At this time, he could only help Chen Kaizhi, rather than follow the Empress Dowager to die.
………………………………………
Fengtian Palace.
It was still silent, terrifying, and it was obviously full of people, but it seemed like there was no one there, without a single sound.
Everyone is waiting.
Until a hunched figure appeared in front of the palace gate with a trembling trembling, many people tried to identify the person, and finally, someone whispered: "It's Eunuch Yang."
Eunuch Yang was so proud of his youth in the palace. More than ten years ago, he met many ministers. Ordinary ministers did not recognize him, but most of the old ministers in the temple had an impression of him.
Although more than ten years have passed, things have changed, Eunuch Yang’s facial features can still be vaguely identified.
He was old and had white hair on his head, so he was inconvenient to walk, and he was trembling.
So he staggered to the hall, then bowed down, and used the sharp voice of the eunuch: "Slave Yang Li, I have met the Empress."
After saying that, kowtow.
Queen Mother Mu suddenly stood up and her body trembled. It was this person, this person. She took the child away, but now, this person... finally appeared.
Her eyes were staring at the boss, and the corner of her mouth was gently bitten, and she wanted to tear Yang Li apart.
All the officials did not dare to breathe. They knew that the current speculation was meaningless, because the truth, at least part of the truth, is about to be revealed.
The Empress Dowager smiled and glanced at Chen Kai with her eyes, as if she was sure to win.
Facing these, Chen Kaizhi had no expression on his face and did not even look at Yang Li. He just stood silently, pressing the hilt of the sword without saying a word, and he seemed very calm and calm.
The Empress Dowager glanced at Eunuch Yang, narrowed her eyes slightly, and asked sternly: "Yang Li, what should you blame?"
Yang Li's eyes instantly fell with turbid tears, and he looked like he regretted his original intention: "The old slave died for a long time, and the old slave was deeply favored by the emperor, and he was even more grateful to the emperor, and he entrusted with important tasks..."
The Empress Dowager said coldly: "Don't say that these are useless. As long as you talk about what you did in the first place, you will talk about it one by one."
"Yes." Yang Li nodded: "I was dissatisfied with the fact that I offended the eunuch Xiao Fu in the palace because I offended the eunuch Xiao Fu everywhere, so I felt dissatisfied. Since then, I was sent to Anxianglou."
"This Anxiang Tower is the residence of Chengpin. Chengpin was an ordinary palace servant, but because the late emperor was lucky, he happened to be pregnant, so he was named Concubine. Chengpin was very good at treating the old slave at that time. At that time, the old slave consciously saw hope. At that time, there were only two pregnant people in the palace, one was the current Queen Mu, and the other was Chengpin. The old slave thought at the beginning that if Concubine Cheng had given birth to a dragon son, it would be a prince, and Concubine Cheng could still arrange a way out for the old slave."
He told the story, and many people rely on their memories to prove his words. For example, there was indeed an Eunuch Xiao in the palace at that time, and Eunuch Xiao was indeed tense with Eunuch Yang. These are all vague memories, but any old minister would have some understanding of the impression in the palace. After all, anyone knows that many movements in the palace may be some kind of signal sent by the emperor, which is extremely important to many ministers.
Now, through this reminder from Eunuch Yang, many old ministers have also begun to remember this past.
Yang Li crawled on the ground and continued in a trembling voice: "Since then, the old slave has become Chengpin's confidant. However, Your Majesty does not like Chengpin. Therefore, although Chengpin is pregnant, he almost never goes to the Anxianglou Tower. Chengpin seems depressed. Usually, he will look for Lao slave to say some intimate words. After being with her for a long time, he will be closer to her. Until one day, Chengpin asked Lao slave, what should he do if the queen gave birth to a dragon son?"
