Pull one wave, hit one wave, and then switch to another wave, and then hit another wave!
As far as most people are concerned, there is really no need to make trouble. Isn’t it good to live?
However, what Ying Zheng and the emperor expected was that the eldest son of the emperor saw through the other party's plot brilliantly and was not fooled by it. He even took the initiative to report them!
Oh my god, this is really a surprise to see after three days apart!
The emperor didn't bother to deal with such trivial matters (meaning things that were not enough to subvert Chao Gang). After realizing that his chosen heir had outstanding brains and physical strength, he unceremoniously removed him. Most of the menial work kicked off.
And Ying Zheng's treatment came quickly and wonderfully.
Quick refers to the fact that he caught the most dirty old nobles in a few strokes, threw the charges at them, and sent the souls out on the same day.
And the wonderful thing is that the Sanwu elixir, first refined by Yuzhenzi and then branded by Yingzheng, finally has a market.
In order to fear that the market would not recognize it, a spokesperson was specially found and given under the guise of the emperor.
The courtiers who received the Sanwu elixir: "..."
Li Yuanda looked at it at a loss: "Ah, why do I feel that there is something wrong with the list? Some people who did not participate also received it?"
Liu Che said proudly: "This is the idea I gave him. If it is false, it will be true, and if it is true, it will be false! If everyone who has taken the Sanwu Immortal Pill dies, they all know that this pill is not serious. Who will take it in the future?"
He said: "Give the three-in-one elixir to the person you want to kill, and then mix it with a few dough balls and give it to others. It can not only release smoke bombs, but also win people's hearts. It kills two birds with one stone!"
Li Shimin: "...The people involved in this matter died after taking the elixir, isn't that also a leak?"
"So if it's false, it's true, and if it's true, it's false!"
Liu Che said with an excited evil smile: "Don't poison everyone involved, choose two surly ones and give them dough dumplings!"
"When he sees that the rest of his comrades are dead and he is still alive, he will definitely be panicked and will cause trouble. If he takes him down at this time, he will fish in troubled waters and add a few people he hates as his pawns. Let’s kill them together…”
Li Shimin: "..."
The rest: "..."
Li Shimin was silent for a long time and sighed: "The moral bottom line is a little low."
Ying Zheng remained silent for a long time and said frankly: "The moral bottom line is not too high."
Li Yuanda was silent for a few moments and then said with relief: "The moral bottom line itself is flexible."
Zhu Yuanzhang dismissed it and sneered: "How can the moral bottom line be so inconvenient!"
Liu Che looked around, looking confused: "What is the moral bottom line?"
Chapter 224
Although the Crown Prince is young, he likes the way of immortality. There is even a special palace in the East Palace for the alchemy room. This is almost known to everyone in the government and the public.
Especially the old nobles who attended the birthday banquet of the father-in-law that day knew that he had been plotted by Empress Xiaohe because of this. Although it failed to succeed, it also greatly verified this point.
Originally, after the birthday banquet of the abbot that day, everyone in the know guessed that he must have been bitten by a snake once and was afraid of well ropes for ten years, or that the matter was purely a disguise, specially designed to confuse Empress Xiaohe.
But I didn't expect that this young prince would actually be addicted to this. Not only did he still ask his disciples to practice this method, but he would also make alchemy by himself when he got free.
Some people say that the former sixth prince and now the crown prince are even offering elixirs to prolong life for the emperor...
Foreign ministers had no way of knowing what was going on in the inner palace. When Empress Xiaohe was there, the situation was slightly better. Due to her background, she would not be stingy about passing on some news that did not violate taboos.
But at this time, Queen Quan was in charge of the affairs of the harem. She had neither her mother's family to communicate with, nor any foreign ministers she had good friends with. There was also the emperor watching closely, so of course she had to close the door tightly and try not to reveal anything. There was a hint of wind coming out.
Therefore, when Ying Zheng asked Yu Zhenzi to give the elixir carefully prepared in the name of the emperor, it did not arouse the suspicion of the courtiers.
After all, many people have received the elixir!
Since Ying Zheng had borrowed the emperor's hand, of course he had to let him know the inside story, so as not to hear Liu Che's words from him. He successfully obtained a contemptuous look from the emperor saying "you shameless person".
Ying Zheng: "..."
OK.
The elixir was given to the emperor's servants one after another. The courtiers who received the gift first thanked themselves, and when they saw that the servants had no intention of leaving, they understood something, either frankly, or suspiciously, or happily, or perhaps He took it anxiously.
Jiang Maoyan also ate it.
He even chewed it in his mouth a few times in order to avoid swallowing it whole.
Li Yan twisted his elixir and asked him quietly: "What does it smell like?"
Jiang Maoyan whispered to him: "It's sweet, like jelly beans."
Li Yan frowned slightly and put the elixir in his hand into his mouth.
A sour and astringent taste passed into the mouth.
I almost couldn't help but put on the mask of pain.
Li Yan looked at Jiang Maoyan with a somewhat complicated expression.
Jiang Maoyan didn't know what was going on, so he thought he wanted to resonate with him, so he winked at him with a teasing look on his face.
Li Yan: "..." (takes a secret breath) (clenches fists)
Your conscience is greatly damaged!
After the elixir entered the stomach, no one ascended or died.
Although a few people with poor physical constitution had diarrhea on the same day, more people still behaved the same as before.
The emperor gave the same elixir three times to different people each time.
After finishing these three courses of treatment, someone finally had an adverse reaction—that’s it.
At first, no one took it seriously - most of the people who received such an honor from the emperor were high-ranking officials and dignitaries. Since they were high-ranking officials and dignitaries, they must have been elderly.
And when an elderly person dies, who will be worried?
To put it harshly, the emperor is almost fifty years old. Although he seems to be doing well now, who knows what will happen in the future?
It's not surprising that he suddenly fell ill and died suddenly tomorrow.
But the conspirators hidden in the dark are inevitably wary.
Several people died intermittently, and all of them were their accomplices. They all took the elixir given by the emperor before they died. Who would listen and not panic?
Those who have already eaten are beginning to be afraid - will I be the next one to die?
I'm worried because I haven't eaten it before - you won't be given elixirs for me later, right?
These people were originally restless, otherwise they would not have immediately gone out to incite the emperor's eldest son to cause trouble. Now, seeing their accomplice die, they were inevitably anxious and could not help but become irritable in their actions.
A said: "Isn't something not good? Several people involved have died, and we might be the next one."
The person next to me said: "Why don't you just rebel?"
B said: "I think things have already happened. Otherwise, how could your majesty give you this elixir so well? The most urgent thing now is to find a way to solve the predicament."
The person next to me said: "It's better to rebel."
A was a little hesitant: "The rebellion...if it fails, I'm afraid it will be bad."
B also hesitated: "Indeed, this is the capital of the country."
The people next to them looked at them and spread their hands: "Apart from this, do you have any other options? Do you really want to wait for His Majesty to cut your flesh with a soft knife and cut people to death? Let's rebel! "
The two of them were silent for this, both of them were speechless.
After a long time, they looked at each other with fierce looks, and they all made up their minds: "Okay! Now that things have reached this stage, what's the point of hesitation?"
This person said, "I still have dozens of pairs of armors hidden in my house," and the other said, "I have five hundred warriors in my family." Their minds and blood surged, and they decided the matter directly.
But the person who was encouraging them to take this path quietly came to Li Yan's house after this fateful private meeting.
"Your Majesty, great things have come true!"
Li Yan praised the crime, and then said: "Act according to the original plan!"
The subordinate hesitated: "Where is His Royal Highness..."
Li Yan smiled and said: "It is precisely because His Highness the Crown Prince planned this matter that I have to stand up for him and let the world think that I did it secretly. Who will doubt His Highness the Crown Prince again? My reputation is worthless, but my heart is priceless! If the world wants to laugh at me, then go ahead, I don’t care!"
He urged: "Go, no need to hesitate!"
The subordinates responded and left.
So on the second day, Li Yan's subordinate officials reported that two old nobles in the capital were secretly hiding armor and weapons and plotting evil intentions.
One stone stirs up a thousand waves.
Reactions from various parties have been mixed.
The emperor remained silent.
Jiang Maoyan frowned and then relaxed his brows, sighing one last time.
The courtiers secretly discussed that Li Yan was worthy of the name of a poisonous person. He pulled first and then struck, and easily eliminated the emperor's troubles.
And Ying Zheng's reaction...
Of course it is very comfortable!
Fuck you, what does Li Yan’s insidiousness have to do with me? As a boss, I think he is very sensible and a good person!
What, you feel scared to be a colleague with him, you don’t know when he will cheat you?
...but he really knows how to lick me!
Ying Zheng has always believed that politicians are neither good nor bad, and whether he can have a positive effect on the government or the world ultimately depends on how the monarch uses him.
For example, Zhao Gao, when the First Emperor was around, was just a dog, with the reins firmly in his hands.
Later, the dog went crazy, which had nothing to do with him - at that time, the dog leader had been replaced by Hu Hai.
In the far east of the city, Shi Lingling was also thinking about this issue.
The First Emperor was born, and so were Fusu and Hu Hai...
So, where are Zhao Gao and Li Si?
