Allegiance to the King

Chapter 783 Allegiance to the King
Several things have happened in Chang'an recently.

First, the emperor personally admitted that Shi Zhongtang, deputy envoy of the Southern Border Jiedu, was his adopted son.

In an instant, everyone looked down on Zhang Chumao, and even the gamblers dared to open the market by asking when Zhang Chumao would leave Nanjiang.It is said that [-]% of the bets are within three years.

Yang Songcheng's son-in-law is about to fall.

Just when everyone was gloating, the emperor suddenly rewarded King Yue, and even promoted several confidantes of King Yue.

Then, a few kittens that King Wei had just recruited for a short time were impeached and taken down immediately.

King Wei became a loner again.

"Your Majesty, His Majesty is compensating the Yang family!"

Ding Chang's beard and hair were grizzled, and he still refused to rest. He rushed from Qianzhou to Chang'an to help King Wei. Your Majesty's target."

This is the palace.

King Wei sat in his study for a long time, holding a volume of books in his hand, raised his head and said: "He asked me to come to Chang'an, originally as a pawn."

"But..." Ding Chang said angrily, "but the poison of a tiger doesn't eat its eggs!"

"He's not a tiger." King Wei looked down at his book, "It's a wolf!"

Ding Chang muttered, "Yes! A wolf with a heart like a dog!"

King Wei didn't care what other people said the emperor was, even if he was a beast.

Because, he is indeed a beast.

"My lord, those people were taken down, and Chang'an is saying that they can't follow the king. Otherwise, they will become targets at some point."

"And this target is often hit by others inexplicably, and I don't know why."

"Your Majesty..."

"Actually, the king has been waiting."

"What is the king waiting for?"

"Auntie!"

King Wei got up, "I asked someone to go to the palace to ask for instructions, and said that this king wants to see A Niang."

Later, King Wei went to Concubine Shu.

"Ma'am, the king is here."

Yu Nan went in happily.

Concubine Shu was sitting on the futon and was reciting scriptures when she heard that the scriptures were thrown away, "Call in quickly."

The southern girl was petite, Concubine Shu jumped up at once, just when King Wei came in, she complained: "Yang Songcheng's family is no worse than the emperor, you are alone, how can you compete with them?

Others seize the heirloom is a competition between several brothers, fighting alone.

When we arrived at your place, it was Mrs. Yang who brought people to surround and beat you. See what I said, so hurry up and get some tea. "

King Wei sat down. The mother and son were petite and tall, and they looked very interesting.

"How is the child?"

"Fortunately, Mrs. Huang is a little flustered."

"It's the same for the first pregnancy. It will be fine after a while. It's good for you to lie down and be small for a while. It will make her feel better."

"Well! I'm coaxing her!"

"Yo! My son can also coax people!" Concubine Shu smiled, "It can be seen that this big sister Huang is really liked by you."

King Wei was silent.

"This time the emperor is trying to suppress you, don't worry about it." Concubine Shu took a sip of tea, "After a while, he will naturally pull you up again.

However, you have to be careful, once you Aye's body is unwell, it depends on what he does.

If he is willing to let you take over the government, it is because he intends to let you succeed and continue to fight against Yang and the others.

If he refuses, then he is an idiot who doesn't care about handing over the country to the Yang family.

At that time, you run quickly, and run to northern Xinjiang.That Yang Xuan... Yu Nan. "

"Ma'am!" Yu Nan stepped forward.

Concubine Shu said: "Next time Zhou Qin celebrates his birthday, remember to remind me and give him a gift."

This is a curve to save the country, a devious way to show favor to Yang Xuan.

King Wei wanted to say that there is no need to do this, but seeing his mother happy, he held back.

"Also, I know you have a bad temper, this time you suffered a big loss out of nowhere, and you want to do it.

But you have to think about it, this time it was your father who made the move, who are you going to hit?Be restrained, ah! "

Concubine Shu leaned forward and straightened his clothes, "Let's not be in a hurry."

"Hmm!" Wei Wang casually perfunctory.

"Huh?" Concubine Shu stared at him.

King Wei said, "I promise not to do anything this time."

Concubine Shu smiled, "Okay, okay. Yu Nan, bring the shoes I made for Erlang and bring them back to him."

"Auntie, doing needlework hurts your eyes, so don't do it in the future."

Concubine Shu took a cloth bag, "I have nothing to do in the palace, and making shoes is just a waste of time. Take it."

King Wei went out of the palace with a cloth bag.

"The guard who pretended to be a neighbor ordered him to tell the lady that I met a businessman friend outside today, and we had a drink together, and I will go back in the afternoon."

"Yes." The guard went.

Ding Chang asked: "Your Majesty, where are you going next?"

"Stand for a while."

King Wei stood outside the imperial city, pacing back and forth.

The imperial city is the political center of the Tang Dynasty, where countless officials manage this huge empire.

The officials came in and out, and seeing King Wei pacing back and forth, they were inevitably curious.

"What is King Wei trying to do? He looks hesitant."

"He has just been dealt with. His Majesty wanted to appease Yang Shi, so he used him to vent his anger on Yang Shi."

"Tsk tsk! This is the punching bag!"

"That's right, there are so many sons in a family, and the second son bullies him closely, what is this?"

"King Wei probably has a firm heart, and he wants to find someone to harm him."

"Be careful!"

Ding Chang couldn't help asking: "Who is Your Majesty waiting for?"

King Wei said, "I am waiting for someone."

"Kingzhang!"

Yang Songcheng came out.

King Wei stopped, turned sideways, and walked slowly towards Yang Songcheng who was leaving the imperial city.

All eyes could not help but follow him.

Yang Songcheng smiled, thinking that the emperor just whipped this unfounded son, is this to reprimand the old man?

But he dared to bet that King Wei dared not do anything.

Patriarch Yang was slapped by the prince, so don't blame him for slapping King Wei and destroying the emperor's chess piece.

What can King Wei come here for?

A group of officials were very curious.

"Could it be that you are submissive?" Someone speculated.

"Maybe!"

King Wei walked up to Yang Songcheng and stopped.

Open up.

"If you live, this king must die!"

King Wei turned and left, saying, "Go to Pingkangfang!"

Pingkangfang is the city that never sleeps in Chang'an. It is a place where you can eat, drink and have fun all night long.

I haven't heard the news that King Wei went to the brothel, so, most likely he went to the restaurant.

Ding Chang asked, "Where?"

"Qingyun Building!"

Qingyunlou is a restaurant in Pingkangfang. It is not big, but it has a special feature, that is Bao.

Qingyun Building is not big, even if it is full every day, it will not earn much money, so the shopkeeper thought of a way.

Restaurants are generally not willing to be booked down by others... Taking it down is equivalent to closing down. If the business is closed for one day, the old customers will go elsewhere.If you pack it a few more times, the old customers will not be happy, and they will change places to eat in the future.

And the guests are not happy, because it costs too much to book a restaurant.

Generally speaking, this is mostly the case with rich people.

The shopkeeper of Qingyun Tower thought, since my place is not big, why not outsource it?
As soon as the signboard was hung, sure enough, the business was booming.

The cost of renting Qingyun Building is not high, the privacy is guaranteed, and the most important thing is that you have face.

As a result, business is getting better and better.

This can also be regarded as differentiated competition.

King Wei's going to Qingyun Tower means that he has booked there today.

When I arrived at Qingyun Tower, the shopkeeper came out to welcome me.

"I have seen the king!"

Qingyun Building's business is good, but most of the real nobles are in private places, such as other industries, such as their own restaurant... who would rarely come to your place.

But King Wei came.

This is live advertising!
The shopkeeper's face was flushed with joy.

Ding Chang went up, "When the food and wine are served, tell your buddy to go back!"

"Yes Yes Yes."

The shopkeeper said happily: "Your Majesty, don't be polite, just treat it as if you are at home. Use the villain as you like. By the way, it is the honor of the villain for the king to come here. The villain knows that the king doesn't care about this little money..."

"Then, it's free."

King Wei stepped up the stairs.

Boom boom boom!
Do you really want to save this money?Shopkeeper: "..."

But after thinking about it, he felt that the benefits of King Wei's coming to Qingyun Building were not comparable to the money, so his mood improved.

Food and drink are ready-made.

King Wei drank wine cup by cup.

Ding Chang stood on the side, frowning.

"The king of Yue is ruthless and vicious. Your majesty is also ruthless, but the king is alone. It would be good if Deputy Envoy Yang is in Chang'an. I have carefully considered his methods. He is ruthless and deep. I am afraid that the king of Yue will not be able to please him. "

King Wei took a sip of his drink, "He can help me only when he is in the northern border. The northern border army is the number one force in the Tang Dynasty. He is in charge of the northern border. Even if Aye wants to move me, he has to think carefully."

Although he didn't want to admit it, King Wei finally knew that part of the reason he could live freely in Chang'an was Yang Xuan's deterrent power.

"That's right! Yang Xuan has turned his back on His Majesty now. If His Majesty makes a move against the King, and he pulls the flag to the side of the Qing Emperor, His Majesty may have to kill King Yue to appease him.

what!Majesty, in fact, this idea is not bad! "

"Do you think the army of Northern Xinjiang is ready to move?" King Wei shook his head, flicked his wine glass lightly with his fingers, the wine in it was stirred up, and then fell down without leaking a single drop.

"Northern Xinjiang faces the Northern Liao Dynasty directly. Once the army of Northern Xinjiang goes south, He Lianchun will go out without hesitation with all his strength and wipe out the northern border. Once the northern border is lost, the Tang Dynasty will be in danger."

Ding Chang raised his head, his eyes were ruthless, "If the king can't ascend the throne, then why does this Tang Dynasty want to come?"

He used to serve in Concubine Shu's palace, and King Wei was carried around by him in the palace since he was a child.After King Wei left the palace, Concubine Shu worried that he didn't know how to take care of herself, so she asked Ding Chang to follow him out of the palace and take charge of the palace.

King Wei was silent.

"Your Majesty seemed ruthless when he was young, but in fact he was the most soft-hearted. That winter, a bird was frozen and fell outside the palace gate. His Majesty picked it up and hid it in his arms to keep warm. Later, the bird died, and His Majesty spent several days Never had a smiley face."

"But this is taking the heir! Those people are not birds, that's right, a group of birdmen. Those birdmen are ruthless! If people are not ruthless, they can't stand firm. Your Majesty, don't be soft-hearted. If you find an opportunity, you can kill a few of them." several……"

King Wei's temple twitched a few times.

Ding Chang was still nagging, "The princess has to be taken care of carefully. Those birds wished they could kill the princess and the child. In this way, the king has become a lonely family again. He has no heirs, so naturally he can't seize the throne...

Your Majesty, the old slave has said so much, is your Majesty bothered? "

King Wei clenched his fist with his right hand and shook his head, "It's not annoying."

Ding Chang smiled kindly, "Your Majesty has been kind since he was a child."

King Wei's eyelids twitched.

Then, he said: "You only see the crisis, but not the opportunity."

Ding Chang was stunned, "Is there still a chance?"

King Wei drank a glass of wine, Ding Chang went to pour the wine, King Wei picked up the jug first, and filled the glass, "This king has been blacksmithing, and the second child, and Yang Songcheng and others are just arguing in court.

In the eyes of many people, this king is a dog raised by Aye, a mangy dog ​​released to check and balance the second child, Yang Songcheng and others.

Therefore, those who come to join me are mostly hopeless, and want to find me to ring the bell, to see if I can help them get promoted..."

King Wei took a sip of his drink, raised his eyebrows slightly.

"This king has always wanted to stand out and raise a flag, but A Niang doesn't allow it, because she thinks it's too high-profile.

Then, the king will bear it.until today.

Aye's suppression is to tell outsiders that this king is a dog he kept in captivity, biting people for him.

This king has been holding back, it's not that he didn't dare to make a move, it's because he wants A Niang to see, it's not that this king wants to stand out, but they are forcing him to show up! "

Ding Chang smiled wryly, "But the Yang family is so powerful! Even His Majesty is afraid of it. The king alone..."

"Who said that this king is alone?" Wei Wang smiled, and the rare sunshine, "Everyone says that the Yang family is powerful, but they don't know how many people the Yang family has offended in fighting for power over the years.

Those people are alone and lonely, but if this king stands up and says that this life will never end with the Yang family, what do you think will happen to those people? "

Ding Chang's body shook, "The words that the king said before outside the imperial city..."

——If you live, this king must die!

This is a declaration of war!

In this life, this king and the Yang family will never die!

"Those people lack a leader, a leader who can compete with Yang.

What would they think if a prince and the Yang family could not stop dying?
Push this prince up!Let him enter the East Palace and become the emperor...

Afterwards, the emperor will continue to suppress the Yang family, and even destroy the Yang family. "

King Wei said a lot in one breath, and took a sip of wine to moisten his throat.

"Even if they are not optimistic about my king's ability to counterattack and enter the East Palace, they are still willing to gather around me.

Without him, these people have been targeting Yang, but because of the loss of a leader, they are in a mess and cannot form a joint force. .

And this king is their favorite leader candidate.So, what the King Ben said today..."

He pointed outside, "Those people, it's time to come."

Knock knock knock!
A guard knocked on the door outside.

Ding Chang went to open the door and asked in a low voice, "What's the matter?"

The guard said: "There are officials outside, please see Your Majesty!"

Ding Chang turned around, his eyes filled with ecstasy and shock.

His little master is so smart, and the city is so deep!
He ran a few steps in a hurry, then stopped, walked slowly, and even adjusted his breathing a few times.

After many years of cold stove, you should be more cautious when igniting the fire for the first time.

He's down there.

An official stood in the lobby, saw him coming, and asked, "Is Your Majesty here?"

Ding Chang nodded, "Follow the old man."

"And wait!"

Another official came in outside, wearing a sixth-rank official uniform, and asked with a smile, "Is the king here? Please see me."

Ding Chang rejoiced in his heart, "Yes."

"Is Your Majesty here?" Another official came.

Ding Chang was already numb.

When he led more than a dozen officials upstairs and walked out of the room, King Wei was sitting by the window, holding a wine glass in his left hand, and pressing his right hand on the window sill casually, looking out the window in a leisurely manner.

"Your Majesty!"

Ding Chang reminded softly.

King Wei turned his head and asked:
"Wait, what are you doing here?"

More than ten officials saluted.

"Allegiance to the King!"

……

Ask for a ticket!
