Chapter 429: Willing to serve the emperor(1/2)

After learning the mystery of the scroll, Yang Xuan liked to watch historical dramas for a while.

Some of the plots in it are very interesting. For example, when the lobbyists see their target, they say: Your Excellency is in danger!

Or something: I heard ***, I came here to express my condolences.

If you read more, you will realize that this is just a way of talking.

"I don't care if it's alarmist or if it's true." Yang Xuan felt a little bored, "You said he is my old friend, come on, tell me the relationship."

Han Sheng said: "My boss Wen Simiao was originally from the prince."

"It's interesting, so why weren't you involved this time?"

"It's just because I gave him an idea and we have been in secret contact."

"No one knows about the prince?"

"No one knows."

"What's your idea?"

"I asked Wen Simiao's brother to take as a concubine the daughter of a distant relative of the Chunyu family, a daughter of a poor family. Then I suggested that he talk to the prince, cut off the woman's brother, and send him to Chunyu Yanjiao.

As a chamberlain."

Yang Xuan narrowed his eyes, "So, let that brother contact the prince?"

"yes."

"Something happened..."

"That is also the crown prince's fault. It is Chunyu's fault and has nothing to do with my employer."

"Tsk!" Yang Xuan looked at Han Sheng, "This has gone around in a few big circles. Even if someone wants to investigate, your proprietor can still have a chance to move around. The method is good. Then, why did you kill?"

"That maid was not killed by me."

"Who is that?"

"It's Wen Simiao."

"This is getting more and more interesting, let's talk about it." Yang Xuan picked up the tea cup.

Han Sheng glanced at the tea cup and licked his dry lips.

"Give him a cup of tea!"

"Thank you very much, envoy."

After getting the tea, Han Sheng squinted his eyes and tasted it carefully, drank a few sips in succession, and sighed: "This is the green tea from East Lake! The best, I only drank it once, so good tea!"

Yang Xuan smiled and said, "Tell me something."

Han Sheng was standing with few cases in front of him, so he held a tea cup and continued: "That day, Wen Simiao suddenly called me, and I went to his study without doubting that he was there.

Who knew that as soon as they entered, they saw the corpse of the maid, her clothes were messy, but Wen Simiao was nowhere to be seen. I knew something was wrong, and then the door was kicked open. Just when those people wanted to kill me, I shouted

Wen Simiao killed someone, but I had a loud voice, so I escaped death."

"I'm not familiar with you." Yang Xuan felt like he was listening to a show.

"Yes." Han Sheng said: "I claim to be unrivaled in scheming, but I have forgotten Wen Simiao's panic after the prince was imprisoned. He wanted to frame me... He killed to pay for his life. I should have been executed, but I was in front of the court.

Questions were raised…”

"What doubt?"

"Wen Simiao's study is an important place. I have never seen the maid before, so she is not a confidant. So, why can I enter the important place of the study?"

Hey!

Yang Xuan nodded slightly and said, "Continue."

"I cry out for injustice."

"Didn't you tell Wen Simiao to silence him?"

"If you call the villain, you and he will be executed."

"That is to say, you are sure that you can find a chance to survive."

"Yes, Wen Simiao was frightened at that time, worried that I would reveal more things, so she could only think of ways to let me escape."

This man's confidence is a bit off-putting.

Han Sheng said: "This matter can be investigated. In addition, when we first arrived at the boundary of Chenzhou, someone assassinated me."

Yang Xuan found out about this from He Lianyan, "If it weren't for this, I wouldn't have time to see you."

He raised his tea cup to end the conversation.

"Your grudges have nothing to do with me."

Han Sheng praised: "You are not a good person, so you can do great things!"

"What big deal?"

"I knew a lot about Shi Jun in Chang'an. Shi Jun was born in a humble background. By chance, he got acquainted with the Wang family and entered the Imperial College. After becoming an official, Shi Jun performed well. But if Shi Jun had not saved the imperial concubine, he would still be here at this moment.

Wannian County is struggling..."

"Um!"

"The envoy chose Taiping County. I thought at that time that this person was either a fool or had great ambitions. When I heard that the envoy followed Huang Chunhui back to Chang'an to report his victory, I thought to myself that this person was not a fool, but a

Have big ambitions.”

"What you said made me feel a little carried away." Yang Xuan said with a smile.

Han Sheng said: "If you had stayed in Chang'an, it seemed that you could rely on your concubines and siblings to achieve success, but from now on you have become their brothers and sisters' followers, and you can't help yourself. These people are nothing more than eagles and dogs, and they are not worthy of my visit."

So proud!

"The envoy came to Northern Xinjiang, which broke the situation. Later, I repeatedly heard that the envoy had made great achievements, and even alienated the concubine, brother and sister. At that time, I was thinking that in the future, this person would either be an envoy to Northern Xinjiang or a member of the imperial court.

Important minister."

Something interesting!

Yang Xuan took a sip of tea.

Even top-notch green tea tastes delicious to him when he drinks it.

They all have the same taste.

"The enmity between Shijun and the four surnames of the family puzzles me the most. The aristocratic families are deeply rooted in the Tang Dynasty. These families are so powerful. If Shijun has great ambitions, why should you enmity with them?

I have always been puzzled until I heard that Shi Jun led his men into Luo Ou Kingdom, and then I suddenly realized...it turns out that Shi Jun was just pretending to be reckless!"

"The five surnames in the family are the cancer of the Tang Dynasty. If they cannot be pulled out, they will cling to the Tang Dynasty and suck blood every day. No matter how big the Tang Dynasty is, they cannot withstand such torture..."

"Those who want to do great things must make choices. If you want to become a general, you must make achievements. Suppressing aristocratic families is what all the emperors of the Tang Dynasty have been doing."

Han Sheng took another sip of tea to moisten his throat, "Good tea!", he continued: "There are few ministers who have made great achievements? There are quite a few, but why are most of the ministers unknown? It's all because they don't understand the emperor's mind."

"Then tell me, what does the emperor think?"

"Any important minister who can be a general or a prime minister must have both skill and scheming. Once such people enter the court, they may become a threat to the emperor. Therefore, the emperor will look at this person's position and his handle. Who can

Whoever is willing to hand over the handle to the emperor will enter the court first."

Han Sheng said with a smile: "You have offended four surnames of the family, no, three surnames of the family. This is the handle that will be handed to the emperor. In time, if you have achieved your merits, you will naturally be able to enter the court."

"Hmm! What else?"

"Of course there are. I thought your plan was perfect, but I just forgot one thing."

"What's the matter?"

Han Sheng raised his eyes and said calmly: "Today's emperor is... shameless!"

This person...

Yang Xuan coughed dryly, "You're rude!"

Han Sheng smiled and said, "I told you to say it's rude, instead of asking someone to come and take me down. It shows that I have the same idea."

He sighed: "If it were any other emperor, it would be a good thing for you to hand over the handle like this. But this emperor... look what he did? He led his army into the palace and forced his grandmother to abdicate. This is unfilial. He led the army again.

The army rushed into the palace and forced the father to abdicate. This is the ambition of a wolf. To rob his daughter-in-law is shameless. To abandon Yancheng is ruthless."

"Yan Cheng!" Yang Xuan's heart skipped a beat.

That old man!

"Yes. Yan Cheng was the one who was bewitched by His Majesty, and he was also the chess piece sent out by His Majesty to vent his anger on a family of five surnames."

Han Sheng sneered and said: "Look at Huang Chunhui, who has defended the country and guarded the border for many years and worked hard, but what did he get? Suspicion.

Look at the left prime minister, who tried his best to check and balance the five surnames in the family, but when it is time to throw him out, will your majesty be polite?

Over the years, Prime Minister Zuo and others have been thrown out by His Majesty to take the blame for him many times. If Prime Minister Zuo had not taken the overall situation into consideration, he would have turned his back and begged for his bones long ago!"

Yang Xuan coughed dryly, "You said this... do you want to say that my handle was paid by mistake?"
