Chapter 156 The Wind One

"Is Zhao Kuangyin really the most suitable candidate?" Han Wei muttered as he left the military office. There were many generals in the Great Zhou Dynasty who could command troops to defend against the enemy. He believed that the most suitable one this time was the Hengjun Jiedushi and Hegemon.

Xu Xian was deployed in the state capital.

Although this man was young, his military exploits were very outstanding. He fought several beautiful battles in Huainan, just defeated the Liao army in Youzhou, and led the Wuyue army to occupy the important town of Changzhou in the Tang Dynasty.

The most important thing is that this person has a poor reputation and a weak foundation. If he really has evil intentions, not many people will support him. Especially since he has an affair with the Queen Mother, he will not easily usurp the throne because of the Queen Mother. It is a pity that it is just right.

Therefore, countless people in the court opposed him, and even his own father supported Zhao Kuangyin in commanding the army.

Han Wei was so concerned about the selection of the commander-in-chief that he even looked at Zhao Kuangyin with harsh eyes, because this matter was not only related to the survival of the Zhou Dynasty, but also the life and death of the Han family.

If Zhao Kuangyin leads his army to the north and performs the same drama as Guo Wei, Han Tong's character will never surrender or sit idly by. If he wins, there is nothing to say. If he loses, it will be the disaster of annihilation. This is called Han Tong.

How can Wei not worry?

It was still the end of the New Year, and the market was very lively, even though it was almost dusk. Han Wei walked home worriedly among the crowd. An old man making a clay figure on the roadside shouted to him feebly, "Lang

Why don't you buy a clay figurine and show it to the children at home? The old man hasn't opened his shop for a whole day."

Han Wei looked up and saw the brightly colored clay figurines stuck on the straw handles and said, "Bring me five!"

"Thank you, Sir! Thank you, Sir!" The old man was overjoyed and hurriedly picked five clay figures and handed them over. When Han Wei handed over the copper coins, he said, "I don't dare to charge more, Sir, only five copper coins are enough!"

"Okay, I'll give you five!" Han Wei gave the old man five copper coins and threw the remaining few coins to the beggar huddled on the roadside mumbling something.

When the beggar saw the copper coin lying beside him, he lay down on the ground to pick it up as if he had been injected with chicken blood. He said quickly as if he was chanting a mantra, "If you check it, you will be the emperor! If you check it, you will be the emperor! If you check it, you will be the emperor!"

…”

Han Wei's eyes widened when he heard this, and he felt a cold wind penetrate into his collar. Not only did he shiver, he stepped forward and knocked down the beggar who was picking up money, and asked: "What did you just say! What are you talking about!"

"

"My copper coins! My copper coins!" The beggar ignored Han Wei's question and struggled to pick up the copper coins on the ground, "Don't grab the copper coins!"

The old clay seller stepped forward and patted Han Wei on the shoulder, "Lang Jun, this beggar has a bad mind. It's useless for you to ask him!"

Han Wei also felt that he was being reckless. He let go of the beggar, patted the dust on his body, and said to the old man: "I just heard him say, 'check yourself and become an emperor'."

The old man nodded, "It is indeed a taboo word!"

"Does my husband know who told him to say this?"

The old man shook his head and said: "I don't know, the old man usually sets up a stall here and has never seen this beggar. Today I saw this beggar shouting here early in the morning."

Han Wei asked: "Then when he shouted, was he heard by others?"

The old man nodded and said: "It was even more lively in the morning. Those taboo words were certainly listened to, but he was so evil-minded that no one would take him seriously. Two patrolmen beat him up.

He stopped talking and the officer took a small bag of copper coins from him!"

"Thank you, father-in-law!" Han Wei once again took out a handful of copper coins and stuffed them into the old man's hand, turned around and left, but he didn't go to home, but instead went along the Royal Street to Liuhe Bay and entered the largest gambling stall.

Although it was still early in the day, the gambling stalls were already overcrowded as it was the New Year's Eve. When the waiter saw Han Wei, he immediately greeted him warmly: "Han Wei? I haven't seen you for a long time? There are so many people below, why not go to the private room upstairs, Li

In the Yamen, Mr. Chen is also up there."

Han Wei is destined to have no official career. Although he comes from an official family, he does not have a strong ambition to make progress. His family has money. He naturally wants to be happy in life. He is also a person who is full of five kinds of poison. He is a frequent visitor to brothels and gambling stalls.

"No need? I'm just passing by here without much money, so I'm just playing a few games down there!"

"It's okay if the yamen doesn't bring any money? We have money here to lend to the yamen? Now it's only five cents, and you can pay it back when you're free!"

Han Wei said impatiently: "Go away!"

Seeing that Han Yanei, who had always been a good-natured person, suddenly got angry, the waiter stopped asking for trouble and turned around to leave. Han Wei looked around the huge gambling stall and found a remote place with many people to get together.

“I’m about to place my bet, have I decided to leave? It’s about to start!”

The man sitting at the bank shouted loudly, and Han Wei casually took a few coins and threw them on the table. He listened to the conversations around him while betting.

The gambling booths were filled with people from all walks of life, ranging from young men in government offices to green men on the street. There were all kinds of people, and the content contained anecdotes from all over the world, and it was impossible to tell whether they were true or false.

After waiting for a long time, Han Wei didn't hear what he needed. Just as he was about to turn around and go to another gambling table, he heard someone speaking mysteriously in a lowered voice: "I'm telling you that the emperor will be replaced soon!"

The waiter at the bank shook his sieve cup and asked, "Didn't the new emperor just take the throne for only half a year?"

"What do you know if you spend all day rolling dice here... We say what we say, you just open the sieve cup!"

"Brother Zhang, tell us what secrets you know!"

"I told you, don't talk nonsense... It's open! It's a small one! It's a small one! I won! I won a big one!" The gambler was excited as he held the small piece of silver ingot he had just received, and used

He gritted his teeth and stuffed it into his arms, "After all, today's trip was not in vain! I'm going to Feng Lai Tower to have a good time."

Seeing that he was about to leave, the person next to him immediately stretched out his hand to hold him back, "Brother Zhang, you can't leave in the middle of a sentence!"

"Oh, you're talking about what happened just now. It doesn't hurt to tell you. When I was passing by the alley today, I heard two little kids saying..." The gambler's voice suddenly lowered, "Check to be the emperor!"

After the gambler finished speaking, he waited for a burst of exclamation from the crowd. Unexpectedly, everyone said disdainfully: "What do I think it is? I heard a beggar say this in the east of the city today!"

"I heard this from someone in Happy Forest in the west of the city!"

"The girl from Jinshuihe said the same thing!"

"It seems that the emperor is really going to be replaced by someone else!"



Listening to everyone's words, Han Wei's expression became more solemn. It was definitely not a coincidence that this prophecy spread throughout the city in such a short period of time. Someone must have arranged it carefully. In other words, there must be a conspiracy, and it must be done immediately.

Just tell your father!
