He sent away the last batch of guests who came to settle down with him in a gentle manner.
Yang Xiaoyun smiled and closed the door. Soon there was a crackling sound in the room. Even the house built of nanmu shook several times and many tiles fell down.
I don’t know how much commotion there was in this room.
After dismantling everything that could be seen with the naked eye, Yang Xiaoyun calmed down a little, clenched his fists tightly, and his joints turned white.
Today's morning meeting, as usual, he did not go in the name of patrol.
It is expected that during the Daqing Dynasty, everyone from the emperor to the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty should have been thinking about how to abandon Yangcheng and escape to Jiannan.
Daqing now is like a broken ship sailing in strong winds and huge waves, and everyone on this ship is not thinking about saving it, but thinking about how to cut off the rotten parts and make this broken ship, Just hold on for a while and a half longer.
And he, Yang Xiaoyun, was just a thief who got on the ship.
It seems that he is thinking a lot about this ship, but in fact, he is only thinking about how to quietly transfer the treasures on this ship to his own ship.
But Yang Xiaoyun never expected that Emperor Jiazheng, who had always been dim-witted and incompetent, would secretly make such a bad move and appoint him as the crown prince without him being present and unable to refuse on the spot. Tell the world directly.
They even agreed on the "Five Points for Exiting the Tatars", which basically meant that if Yang Xiaoyun could drive the Tatars out of the country, then the country would be surrendered.
From the perspective of the ignorant people, the current Emperor Jiazheng has made an extremely huge and costly decision, which can be said to be the benefit of the people of the world, while giving up the country left by his ancestors...
Bullshit!
What is left of Daqing’s country? In addition to the corrupt officials of the Manchu Dynasty, there was also the scorched earth and ruins occupied by the rebels and Tatars.
Popular support?
That thing has long been messed up by several successive faint emperors, including Emperor Jiazheng.
The treasury was so empty that it would starve to death, and most of the remaining army had already been eaten away by Yang Xiaoyun, who was already in Yang Xiaoyun's pocket.
The only benefit may be the righteous status.
But this kind of vain thing is of very limited use to Yang Xiaoyun.
But...but unfortunately, the news has now spread.
If Yang Xiaoyun refuses to accept and become the 'prince' at this time, it means that he refuses to accept the task of resisting the Tatars.
These were originally two things, but they were abruptly mixed into one thing.
As a result, Yang Xiaoyun would immediately desert his family, but all the preparations he had made before were in vain. In the name of resisting the Tatars and regaining the mountains and rivers, the righteous men from all sides gathered together, as well as the Daqing soldiers who took back their subordinates on this basis, will mostly be alienated and difficult to dispatch.
Now Yang Xiaoyun has been forced into a blind corner, unable to get off the tiger.
"Who is it! Who is it? He is plotting against me secretly?" Such doubts only lingered in Yang Xiaoyun's mind for a moment, and he had already found the answer.
Overshadowed by the "abdication" turmoil, another protagonist of today's morning court, National Preceptor Li Jianchen...
Different from Yang Xiaoyun's "being the prince", Li Jianchen showed his face in the morning, although...it was only his flying sword that went there.
The flying sword circled the beams of the house several times, and then turned into rainbow light and broke through the clouds. Many courtiers who had complained about the inexplicable addition of a national master changed their minds and no longer objected.
Even because of this, there is no longer any doubt about the title of "Crown Prince" Yang Xiaoyun.
In the final analysis, those so-called civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty who were really capable, strong-minded, and bloody have either died or left long ago. The remaining people who are just living around know that Daqing is hopeless. At this time, whatever tricks Emperor Jiazheng wanted to do, most of them would be done by him.
Boom, boom, boom!
There was a knock on the door.
Before Yang Xiaoyun could answer, someone had already opened the door and walked in.
Dressed in Tsing Yi, with delicate features, the most attractive thing is her unparalleled and agile eyes.
Even though she is already a mother of two children, and the eldest daughter is already twenty-eight years old, the woman who pushed in the door still looks like she did when they first met at Panchun Lake eighteen years ago, full of girlishness. , time seems to be treating her particularly favorably.
"Madam! Why are you here?" Yang Xiaoyun forced a rather forced smile and asked his wife as gently as ever.
As if unaware of the dilapidation and corruption around her, Situ Huiyun slowly walked to Yang Xiaoyun, holding a bowl of lotus seed porridge in her hand.
"You haven't eaten all day. I was afraid that you wouldn't be able to bear it, so I cooked you a bowl of lotus seed porridge." Situ Huiyun said.
Yang Xiaoyun sighed and said with a slight frown, "You know, I can't eat anything now."
The table had been broken into pieces, so Situ Huiyun could only continue to hold the hot porridge, but he said softly: "If you don't eat something, what if you can enter the palace tonight to see the emperor who suddenly became enlightened?"
Yang Xiaoyun was stunned for a moment, and the light in his eyes skyrocketed: "You mean...but if you do this, will you be too anxious?"
Situ Huiyun chuckled, and his voice was as sweet as a silver bell: "This has reached a critical moment of life and death. If you delay for one more day, you will be more passive. Although you are a little anxious, this matter is not completely useless to you. Your righteousness is already here. Just kill Emperor Jiazheng and pass the matter on to the Tatars afterwards."
"With your reputation and the promise of Emperor Jiazheng's imperial edict, if you ascend the throne as emperor, you will definitely respond to your call. With Yangcheng as the foundation, and then in the name of the emperor, you will grant amnesty to the world, and summon all the princes to gather in Yangcheng to resist the Tatars. The princes of the world, no matter how reluctant they are, can only obey."
"As soon as they enter Yangcheng, they will be under your control. In this way... a big thing will be done."
Situ Huiyun analyzed all the forms clearly for Yang Xiaoyun in just a few words.
Indeed, Yang Xiaoyun's current situation seems dangerous, but if the mess can be cut quickly and those possible barriers removed, then all the rest will be benefits.
And all of this is based on one basis... Emperor Jiazheng must die "suddenly" in the shortest possible time.
Picking up the lotus seed porridge on the tray, Yang Xiaoyun drank it all in one gulp without fear of burning it.
Situ Huiyun looked at Yang Xiaoyun who had regained his composure, with a smile on his face and retired as if he had never spoken.
A truly smart woman will know when enough is enough. If you show off your superiority and intelligence too much in front of your husband, it will be very damaging to your relationship!
Men are always like children sometimes. Taking care of their faces is a crucial practice.
The night is dark and windy, which is really good weather for killing people.
Yang Xiaoyun dressed in black and broke into the palace, as if entering a deserted place.
The guards, who had just spent the night lying in the flowers and mud, repeated the experience of last night.
Compared to Feng Linwen who had to lure Emperor Jiazheng out with the scent of wine, Yang Xiaoyun was much more straightforward.
He had long known through the spies placed in the palace that Emperor Jiazheng was staying at the residence of Concubine Zhu and Concubine Chan tonight.
Um! In a sense, perhaps the shortage of rooms in the palace may not be all bad for the emperor Jiazheng. At least... those concubines who had to maintain some manners now had no reason to refuse such a ridiculous thing as three people traveling together.
Using a strong force to break the bolt on the door, Yang Xiaoyun looked at the trembling quilt on the bed in the room, as well as the faint sound of breathing, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth covered by a scarf.
Raising a palm, his extremely fierce palm power, which was known to the world, was now turned into an extremely feminine force, rushing towards the person in the quilt.
