The first thing I did when I returned to the mansion was to send someone to kill the eighth-grade official who bought Su Meier that day.
After serving in the army for three years, he was full of ruthlessness. He only had murderous intentions in his heart towards the person who bought Su Meier. His soldiers were loyal, and that night he took off the head of the eighth-rank official.
For the first time, he felt the importance of holding power.
The next day, the prime minister invited me.
Zhu Wang felt a little uneasy in his heart. Su Meier was at the prime minister's residence. Will they meet today?
The Prime Minister's Mansion was very large, and I searched everywhere without forgetting any traces, but could not find that familiar figure.
There is no good wine and no good banquet.
At the wine table, the prime minister directly extended an olive branch. In the court, the struggle between factions was more dangerous and fierce than on the battlefield. The struggle between party members and those who oppose dissent is something that every official spares no effort to do.
As an official in the government, you must take sides, no matter who you are, there will be no exception.
The prime minister promised that as long as Wong Wang is willing to join his faction, everything will go smoothly in the future.
After a long silence, he forgot to ask: "Is there anyone in this court who has never stood in line?"
The prime minister took a sip of tea and said calmly: "Only the current emperor."
Even though he refused, he still remembered the young master's words and wanted to live out his own life.
Two days later, the government and the public were shaken, and the news of Zhenyuan Hou's rebellion spread like wildfire. The emperor sent people to search the Zhenyuan Hou Mansion and found a treason letter. Zhen Yuan wanted to assassinate the Holy Emperor in front of the palace. Three thousand soldiers wanted to set off a bloody storm in the capital. .
The Marquis of Zhenyuan was forced into a prison, and he became angry after hearing this.
Three thousand soldiers were killed.
Looking at the faint smile hanging on the corner of the prime minister's mouth, Zhu Wang suddenly understood why the young master ran away that day. He was an official in the court and could not live like himself.
Everyone is hiding their true self except the emperor.
In the prison, Liao Wang was flogged, and the guards tortured him, asking him to reveal his unfounded accomplice.
During this period, the emperor came several times, his face gloomy, and his former kindness and smile were completely gone.
There is no friendship between the monarch and his ministers.
The following year.
Neighbors invaded, and their troops and horses were strong. No one in the court dared to fight. The enemy was at its peak, and they did not want to challenge its edge and die in vain.
The prime minister advised: "Let the Marquis of Zhenyuan lead the dead men to charge and kill."
Emperor: "Accurate!"
After Wang was taken out of the prison and saw the light of day again, at this moment, he just wanted to see Su Meier again.
The prime minister read out the imperial edict, forgetting not to hear a word, and finally asked: "Four years ago, did the prime minister buy a girl named Su Meier?"
"Bought it."
"Where is she?"
"I'm not very obedient. I'm a military prostitute. If you return to the military camp, you might be able to see her."
Liao Wang's face was pale and he had served in the army for three years. He knew exactly what happened to military prostitutes.
"Accept the order. If you can survive this time, then think about other things."
The prime minister sneered, threw down the imperial edict, and left.
The screen changes.
Liao Wang led 30,000 dead soldiers to fight against the invading army armor, during the scorching summer heat.
Forgetting his indifferent expression, he made a plan to lead the enemy troops into a valley, commanded the soldiers to pour wine and set fire to them.
The fire soared into the sky, and the sky in the main film was burned red. The mountains and vegetation were all spared, and all combustible items were burned to ashes.
The enemy army was defeated and wanted to evacuate. Forgetting the roar, he led the army to guard the entrance and exit of the valley, blocking the enemy army in it. The two sides fought madly, and the battle suffered heavy casualties.
The fire raged for three days, and no soldier survived.
Liao Wang was lying on the ground, his body covered with stab wounds and burn marks. He looked at the old, weak, sick and disabled people around him and said, "We survived, we triumph!"
The imperial court was shaken, and 30,000 men annihilated an army of more than 100,000. Wu Wang became famous. For a while, the reputation of Zhenyuan Marquis spread among the court and the public.
At the same time, news spread like wildfire that the prime minister intended to rebel. The emperor confiscated the prime minister's residence and found the same secret letter intending to rebel, plus a secret letter blaming the Marquis of Zhenyuan.
The prime minister was lying on the ground, his eyes dull. He couldn't figure out what was going on.
Until he looked at the letter in the emperor's hand, his pupils suddenly shrank. This scene was so similar.
"Your Majesty, this is the plan of Marquis Zhenyuan. This person has evil intentions and intends to frame the ministers. I hope Your Majesty will understand clearly!"
The emperor's face was cold and he uttered one word: "Behead!"
In just two years, officials were investigated twice for treason, and it turned out that it was all the work of the prime minister. This time, the emperor didn't want to ask about his accomplices, and asked directly.
The prime minister's family of more than 40 people, old and young, were all executed.
The Marquis of Zhenyuan returned to the court and was given the title of King Xiaoyao, who could raise 10,000 soldiers and have a first-class official residence.
"Thank you Lord for your grace!"
Forgetting to kneel down respectfully and receive the order to thank him, a smile appeared on his face unconsciously. From this moment on, he no longer needed to take sides.
In Prince Xiaoyao's palace, the door lintels are broken, and there is an endless stream of people giving gifts to build relationships. Those who forget to come are not rejected, no matter what kind of gifts they are, they are all accepted.
At the same time, he spread the news and found a woman named Su Meier. If he could find her, he would be rewarded heavily.
All the officials were shocked and wanted to find King Xiaoyao's woman. If this could be done, their career would be smooth sailing.
…
Three years passed in a hurry, and the power of the Xiaoyao royal family was so deep-rooted that even the emperor had to give him a small favor, but he still couldn't find Su Meier.
His power is still not big enough, and the scope of his influence is only one-third of an acre. Although the officials have made some moves, they are not interested in this matter. It is just a temporary enthusiasm. Three years and three years, Su Meier I'm afraid it has drifted farther away.
In the court hall, I forgot to ask for leave to return to my hometown, and the emperor agreed.
King Xiaoyao is not a womanizer, nor does he covet gold, silver, and soft goods. In the past few years of his reign, he has almost no desire except looking for Su Meier. Now that he wants to return home, he naturally agrees.
It's just that he forgot that a few years ago, he ordered that all the people in the city lord's mansion be executed and the nine clans were killed.
Today's City Lord's Mansion is just a ruin.
He knew these things naturally after forgetting them. He just felt that after so many years, he should return to his hometown for a visit.
Based on his memory, he erected monuments for dozens of people in the city lord's mansion.
When erecting the last monument, I forgot to write my name.
"Sir, if you hadn't left that day, everything would be different today. But I don't blame you. You have your own ideas, and I just want to find Su Meier."
"The King Xiaoyao, who has a first-class official position, is respected by thousands of people, but I know that this title is useless. I want to mobilize people all over the world to search for traces of Su Meier. I want to see the person alive and the body after death. "
"If I were a king, I would be able to achieve what I want in my heart!"
Wang Wang stood up, a terrifying light burst out from his eyes.
Three things happened. This time, it was a real rebellion.
King Xiaoyao has a land of thousands of miles and has more than 30,000 well-trained troops. Compared with the hundreds of thousands of troops of the imperial court, it is nothing, but in the capital, this is an unstoppable force.
There was singing and dancing in the main hall, and all the officials were in high spirits, completely unaware that the crisis was coming.
When blood splattered three feet in the imperial city and Wu Wang's knife was placed on the emperor's neck, they woke up. This time King Xiaoyao really rebelled.
