Chapter 147 Powerful Minister [16]

When the emperor heard Eunuch Li say that the ninth prince was coming, the anger on his face faded away and said, "Xiao Jiu is coming? Pass it quickly!"

An eight-year-old child walked into the imperial study room. His cute face was a serious look, and his actions were very standard and rigid when saluting the emperor. However, when the emperor smiled and waved to him, he immediately showed a lively and cheerful smile and stuck to the emperor, and shouted coquettishly: "Father!"

The emperor likes the ninth prince who is usually well-behaved, smart and steady, but he is unambiguous when he should act cute. He hugged him in his arms and asked with a smile: "What's wrong with Xiaojiu coming to see his father today?"

The ninth prince glanced at the mess on the ground. There were already palace servants cleaning up. He asked, "Are your father still worried about Zhenbeigong?"

The smile on the emperor's face suddenly became cold and his anger surged. Now, as long as someone mentions "Zhenbeigong" and "Meng Yuanjia", he can make him angry.

The ninth prince was not afraid of the emperor's angry look. He lay in the emperor's ear and whispered a few words. Soon he saw the anger on the emperor's face turned into joy. He picked up the ninth prince and laughed: "Good son, Xiaojiu, you are really my smartest son! If the plan is successful, I will make you the crown prince!"

The ninth prince's face was filled with a happy smile, but there was a sarcasm in his eyes.

The ninth prince coaxed the emperor happily, and before leaving, he still reminded the emperor: "Father, don't let people know that it was the idea given to you by my son."

The emperor nodded perfunctorily. Anyway, he had no intention of telling others that he had to rely on his eight-year-old son to come up with such a wonderful way to eliminate treacherous slander. Of course, such a good way was created by him, a wise ruler in the prosperous era.

When the emperor was secretly planning how to transfer the Zhenbei Army stationed outside the capital, Yuanjia had already contacted the generals in the local army, and the bribery and solicitation operation went smoothly.

In fact, in recent years, except for the border Queyu Pass, which had to face the attack of the barbarians, there was no war in other parts of this dynasty. At most, it would be to suppress bandits and suppress military officers as civil servants.

Local generals are really not valued in the court, and they will be snatched away by civil servants for the bandit suppression. They will take the blame, and the credit will be snatched. The matter will be exposed to the emperor. The emperor who is determined to gather military power is unconditionally biased towards civil servants, which is heartbreaking.

When Yuan Jia focused all his energy on controlling the local army, he sent people to investigate the forces under the Ninth Prince to send back the secret letter.

Yuan Jia opened the secret letter and saw that on the surface, the forces under the name of the Ninth Prince were all businessmen and chambers of commerce that were not on the table, and the ninth prince’s uncle was the ninth prince’s uncle who made it under the name of the ninth prince.

On the surface, it was just the ninth prince's uncle who greedily borrowed money from the ninth prince's name to participate in the chamber of commerce to make money. In fact, Yuan Jia saw that the ninth prince was deploying the court through merchants.

Those chambers of commerce have frequently funded the imperial examinations of poor students recently. When the ninth prince grows up, many of those poor students should have entered the imperial examinations and become the backbone of the court. Wouldn't they be his natural team at that time?

Yuan Jia can basically confirm this layout that the ninth prince should be the rebirth of this world.

Yuan Jia will disperse part of his energy at the chamber of commerce planned by the Ninth Prince, thinking about how to break up this huge capital group that had just begun to emerge.

However, before he could take action, he was responsible for sending a secret letter outside the capital who was staring at the people sent by the emperor to ask for help: "Lord, a fish that escaped the net escaped from our fishing net."

This means that the emperor's men may have passed on the secret edict for help.

Yuan Jia didn't care much. Many generals in the local army chose to surrender to his command, and the people sent by the emperor might not be able to come back alive.

Since there was already a fish that had escaped the net, Yuan Jia simply withdrew the person and let the emperor ask for help. If he was afraid, he would lose.

But what Ling Yuanjia did not expect was that the local army did not receive the emperor's secret edict. It seemed that the fish that had missed the net did not go to summon local army to Beijing to serve the king and protect the emperor.

What exactly is the emperor doing?

Yuan Jia felt something bad in his heart.

"Can't delay it anymore!" Yuan Jia's premonition of bad intentions made him pay great attention to it. He wrote dozens of secret letters in succession and sent someone to send them out.

Then he asked the old lady to go to the Marquis of Jincheng in person and convey his meaning to the Marquis of the Marquis of the Marquis of Jincheng.

As for himself, he could not act easily, so he stayed in Zhenbei Gong Mansion to accompany his wife Chu Wenlan to enjoy flowers and play chess, which seemed very leisurely.

In fact, under his dozens of secret letters, the entire court was in a state of turmoil.

A month later, everything was ready. Yuan Jia changed into a piece of armor and took the long sword that had just crossed over and killed many barbarians on the battlefield.

When Chu Wenlan saw his outfit, she felt something and looked at him with concern, her unfinished words were close to the sorrow of her eyes.

Yuan Jia comforted, "Don't worry, no matter what, I will come back alive."

Chu Wenlan pursed her lips and didn't say anything. She walked up to him, reached out to pull his big hand and covered her abdomen, and said softly: "I and I are waiting for you to come back."

Yuan Jia looked at her quietly, suddenly smiled slightly, and said, "Okay, when I come back, our family will be reunited."

Yuan Jia did not say goodbye to the old lady and Yan, but instead put on armor and took weapons and walked out of the mansion. His personal soldiers were already standing at the door with war horses standing in line waiting for him. He turned over the horse, glanced at the closed gate of Zhenbei Gong Mansion, and then rode his horse and whipped it toward the palace.

As we ran all the way, there were the sound of swords and war horses galloping everywhere.

The 200,000 northern troops stationed outside the capital had already attacked.

As for the imperial guards who defended the city, Yuan Jia only needed to bribe some of them and let the imperial guards who fought Wuzha react a little slower, and no one could stop the Zhenbei army from breaking into the city.

The tall city walls of the capital did not form any effective obstacles. They cooperated inside and outside and drove straight into the palace.

<<<<<<

The emperor had just received good news from his confidant Fei Ge sent back. The people he sent had already mingled to the northern grassland and was about to find the King of Hu, and discussed with him the 100,000 northern troops in the border that broke through Queyuguan and killed the border.

The ninth prince gave the emperor the idea that if the 100,000 Zhenbei Army in Queyu Pass was killed by all the Hu people, Meng Yuanjia would definitely lead the 200,000 Zhenbei Army outside the capital to attack Hu and avenge revenge.

If Meng Yuanjia is unwilling to avenge the 100,000 Zhenbei Army, he will definitely lose his morale, and the 200,000 Zhenbei Army is not worth worrying about.

I have to say that this plan is extremely vicious.

However, Yuan Jia was too fast and did not wait for the emperor's men to contact the King of Hu, nor did he give them the opportunity to cooperate inside and outside, so he directly led his army to surround the palace.

The emperor was still dreaming of killing all the Zhenbei Duke Mansion and executing Meng Yuanjia to vent his hatred in his heart, when he heard a panic outside the bedroom.

"Come on! What's going on outside?"

Eunuch Li ran in panic and shouted to the emperor: "Your Majesty, something is wrong! Mr. Zhenbei led his army to surround the palace, and he rebelled!"

The emperor was so scared that his face turned blue and sat down on the ground, unable to believe: "What? He actually turned against him?"

Although the emperor always felt that Meng Yuanjia was threatening him and must have wanted to rebel, he subconsciously knew that all the Zhenbeigongs in history were loyal to the royal family. Meng Yuanjia held 300,000 of which were stationed outside the capital. He had never seen him rebellious in recent years. He had a lucky mentality deep in his heart: Maybe Meng Yuanjia was still loyal to the royal family and just wanted to be a powerful minister, but did not want to rebel.

Now that I have received the news of Meng Yuanjia’s rebellion, the emperor’s inner fear is far beyond his anger.

Eunuch Li was not as frightened as the emperor. He hurried over and helped the emperor up and said in a panic: "Your Majesty, let's run away quickly! Keep the green mountains here, and you are not afraid of no firewood. We run to the south. There are still many troops in the south who are loyal to His Majesty. We can retake the capital and kill the rebels."

The emperor loyal to the fear came back to his senses and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, you are right. I want to live, I can't die, I still have a chance to turn the tables..."

But how to run? The emperor had no rules at all. Eunuch Li loyally helped him change into eunuch clothes, shaved his beard, and painted the face with dust, pretending to be a little eunuch. Eunuch Li himself changed into a little eunuch clothes, and the two of them ran away quietly.

At this time, the palace was in chaos, the sound of war was clearly heard, and everyone was panicked. Except for some extremely loyal eunuchs and palace maids, most of them were fleeing their own lives, and who would care about their master?

Even the emperor who ran away with Eunuch Li pretending to be a little eunuch did not want to save his queen, concubine and princes.

Anyway, it is the most important thing for him to live. The empress and concubine can be remarried in the future, and the prince and daughter can be reborn in the future. His life is only one.

The ninth prince, who had just moved from a remote palace to a palace closer to the emperor's bedroom because he was favored by the emperor, hid in Gong's room, pinched his nose and raised his ears to listen to the movement outside, his face full of panic and unwillingness.

Damn Meng Chu is really useless!

In his previous life, he could still kill Meng Yuanjia, help him recruit old subordinates of Zhenbei Duke Mansion, and help him ascend to the throne.

In this life, she was so rushing to the point where she was driven out of Zhenbei Gong Mansion by Meng Yuanjia. Even if she asked him to convey some fake news to Meng Yuanjia, she could ruin the matter, which made Meng Yuanjia rebelled in advance!

Thinking of his good deeds as an emperor in his previous life, he was killed by the Hu people who had broken the capital and died particularly miserably.

After finally reborn, he found that many things have become different. Meng Yuanjia from Zhenbei Gongfu is very likely to be reborn like him. He has resentment towards his father who cheated his son and directly pulled back 200,000 Zhenbei troops stationed outside the capital, and might force the palace to rebel at any time.

Before he could use a trick to get rid of Meng Yuanjia, Meng Yuanjia actually invaded the palace directly. What can he do if an eight-year-old child faces the fierce 200,000-year-old army?

The ninth prince could only pray that he would not be found in Gong's room for the time being, or that Meng Yuanjia would be willing to push him to the throne as a puppet emperor after finding him.

I was afraid that Meng Yuanjia would want to ascend the throne himself, so he, the prince, could only be wiped out miserably.
