Some people accused him of being a traitor and harming the country. After the emperor was killed, he beheaded several people on the spot, which calmed the excitement of everyone.
Xun Yu and Xun Xun, who came over, also led their troops and stood silently behind He Dai.
Even those who clamored the loudest knew the end was over.
This palace change ended with He Daiming winning face to face and secretly.
But the undercurrent behind this victory has just begun.
After the Ministry of Rites prepared the arrangements for the emperor's burial, everyone exited the palace in a hurry.
Full of revenge, He Dai looked at the ministers leaving reluctantly, and then turned around and handed over to Xun Yu behind him, "I would like to thank Marquis Zhaoping for your help this time. After the new emperor ascends the throne, we will wait to discuss merits." Let’s reward you.”
Xun Yu said, "Now that the national treasury is empty, large-scale rewards may harm the country's foundation. Now that the Southern Army is in the hands of the Taiwei, the Taiwei might as well give the command of the Northern Army to my son."
He Dai waved his hands nonchalantly, "I don't have to worry about money, Lord, I have my own way. As for the control of the Northern Army..." He paused, "This matter still needs to be discussed."
He had already agreed to hand over the control of the Northern Army to Ao Lei, so naturally he would not agree to hand over the Northern Army to Xun Yu.
After all, the actual person in charge of the Southern Army was Xun Xun, so restraint was the best policy.
He did not get control of the Northern Army on the spot, so Xun Yu had no choice but to say goodbye after greeting him.
Xun Yu took Xun Xun back to his carriage.
Xun Yu, who was still holding the throne, sat on the side and said respectfully to Xun Xuan, "Your Highness, we have revealed the news of the emperor's death. Now that He Dai is holding the emperor hostage to order the princes, he will definitely want to make a big move. I want to take control of the government as soon as possible and eradicate dissidents. The government and the public are bound to be dissatisfied. The central ministers of the court must have personal grudges with He Dai, and they will definitely not stand by and let Prince Li ascend the throne smoothly. When the time comes, as long as His Highness himself is trapped in a cocoon, His Highness will be with Yongzhou soldiers and horses. , raise your arms and give a shout."
If they add a few more fires, they can easily instigate some die-hard people to rebel. Those individuals will definitely choose the call of brotherhood.
Let a King of Ceremony, who has already played five costumes, become the emperor. Naturally, there is no more orthodoxy than His Highness, the emperor's biological brother.
"Now there are constant natural disasters in various states. When He Dailao works hard to stabilize the situation..."
That's when they pick peaches.
The two talked secretly and then relaxed. Before Xun Xuan could talk to Xun Yu, someone ran in from outside, looking flustered.
"Master Marquis, the prince is not well."
Xun Yu opened the curtain of the carriage and shouted angrily: "If you have something to say, just tell me, why are you in such a hurry?!"
The man was startled.
Xun Yu asked: "What's the matter?"
"Yes, it's the young prince..." He glanced at Xun Xun in the carriage with his peripheral vision and quickly changed his words, "It was the second young master who was beheaded by Shi Chong. Madam Hou was frightened and fainted on the spot. Everyone in the Hou Mansion is controlled by Shi Chong..." The man looked flustered.
Xun Xun's face suddenly turned ugly, and Xun Yu suddenly stood up and cursed angrily: "What did you say? The traitor Shi Chong dared to harm my son's life. Is he seeking death?"
Xun Yu was still thinking that his family's good days were not far away. Suddenly, when he heard the shocking news, his three souls were shocked.
"what happened?"
The man said, "That Shi Chong broke into the Marquis's mansion with thousands of guards, but you... you and the second young master worked together to steal the key to his ancestor's treasure mine."
When Xun Yu figured out the cause of the matter, he quickly ordered the driver to ride back quickly.
Xun Xun said, "I'm afraid someone took advantage of us and took advantage of the troubled waters."
Xun Yu said categorically, "Just now He Dai was confident that he could solve the money and food problem, but he still refused to hand over the control of the Northern Army. He must want to renege on his previous agreement with us, and he must be the one who stole Shi Chong's huge wealth. "
Otherwise, how could he accept the reward so happily? As far as he knew, He Dai's family was not very rich and could achieve large-scale rewards.
Whenever the political power changes, to appease people's hearts, rewards should not be given to one or two people, but to a large number of people.
After he figured this out, he became more certain of his guess.
"He Dai is too bold. The matter of King Li becoming the new emperor has to wait until His Majesty is buried. If it is really him, how could Shi Chong think that it was me, Ming'er, who stole it? He couldn't wait to get it so soon. It’s impossible to kill a donkey without removing the mill!”
Thinking of Xun Ming, Xun Yu's heart ached terribly.
Although Xun Ming is unremarkable, he only has one legitimate son!
Everything he is doing now is to pave the way for him.
Now tell him that Xun Ming died and caused a series of troubles later.
Naturally, he didn't believe that Xun Ming had the guts to steal the key to Shi Chong's huge wealth. Even if he dared, he wouldn't be able to hide the huge wealth in such a short period of time without telling it until his death.
Someone must have set a trap.
As for the person who could harm his son like this and get away with a huge fortune in such a short period of time, no one except He Dai would make any second guesses.
This He Dai was still thanking Xun Yu for leading his troops to help, but he turned around and dug such a big hole for them. Before his plan could be implemented, he asked him to come and drain the firewood.
Before His Majesty's death, Shi Chongke was still holding the post of Lieutenant General of the Southern Army. If he really wanted to fall out with the Zhaoping Marquis Mansion, the Forbidden Army would be in hand, and he would be in a dilemma.
The more he thought about it, the uglier Xun Yu's face became.
He suddenly kowtowed to Xun Xun who was sitting upright, "Please, Your Highness, make the decision for me. Your Highness knows that my son, Nu Bu, is a simple and honest man. He Dai just spoke and laughed, and Yan Yan had already arranged this event." Let's go back and fight with Shi Chong, and he will reap the benefits when both sides lose!"
Xun Xuan helped Xun Yu up and said to his confidants standing by, "Gather our men in the army and return home."
Not to mention the huge commotion they are about to make in Qimochunfang.
In a quiet private room on the third floor.
Zhang Sou is waiting for Xie Yuanju to return.
When the sun set in the west and he still hadn't arrived, Zangsou couldn't help but pace back and forth.
Que Si stood in the shadow of the corridor pillar like an invisible person. If he didn't look carefully, he wouldn't notice that there was another person here.
Zang Sou couldn't help but ask him, "Que Si, you have been with the Lord every day, and he didn't tell you when he would come back?"
The lord is following a girl. If he delays any longer, he will even delay his business!
Xie Miaoxuan was making a lot of noise these days, so naturally he had secretly seen Xie Miaoxuan.
That was a very beautiful girl. Inexplicably, he felt a little uneasy in his heart, always feeling that something was out of control.
Que Si was as taciturn as ever, turning a deaf ear to his questions.
Zhang Sou had no choice but to suppress his temper and sit down to drink tea.
After changing the tea several times, Xie Yuanju finally arrived, dusty and tired.
Zhang Sou quickly paid his respects.
"Lord."
