Chapter three hundred and eighty eight boring people
Although Kaifeng has not changed much, it is no longer the capital that symbolized Chai Rong's supreme power. With Chai Rong's death, the center of power in the Zhou Dynasty turned into a whirlpool of power. Too many people thought
After entering Kaifeng, too many people died from this desire.
There is no doubt that Pei Zhan, the military governor of Ding'an Army, is currently the biggest winner. He supported the little emperor Xianyuan. The little emperor reciprocated his favor and named Pei Zhan King of Zhou. King Zhou, who knows when this king will become king?
Change the word to emperor? In history, the emperors who established emperors were all heroes with abnormal strength, such as Dong Zhuo. No matter what his fate was, at least he had been arrogant. For example, Xiang Yu, King Huai of Chu was not a puppet for him to play with.
It is unlucky to cite these two examples, because the final fate of these two people was not the same as they originally planned.
Pei Zhan supported the young emperor Xian Yuan to ascend the throne, but the young emperor was lost.
Pei Zhan has been sending people to find out who is so bold as to steal the young emperor out of the palace. Pei Zhan wants to be emperor, and supporting Chai Zong as Emperor Xian Yuan is just the first step for him to ascend the throne. Chai Rong
He has descendants. If he kills Chai Zongxun's brother and ascends the throne, he will immediately become the target of public criticism. If Luo Xu, the Huben general, supported Chai Zongxun as emperor out of loyalty to Zhou Shizong Chai Rong, then Pei Zhan
It's entirely out of selfishness.
The little emperor Xianyuan was lost, which made Pei Zhan furious. He was very angry...and very excited.
What makes him angry is that his subordinates are just useless, and they can't even watch a child in the heavily guarded inner courtyard of the palace. What makes him excited is that he smells an opportunity. If the little emperor Xianyuan dies, then he will
Except for Luo Xu's use of Chai Zongxun, wouldn't it be natural for him to ascend the throne as emperor? No matter who stole the little emperor Xianyuan, this is not bad news for Pei Zhan. As long as he finds him and kills him, he can be blamed
It was pointed out to one person to carry it, and then he, Pei Zhan, avenged the little emperor with grief and anger, and naturally ascended to the throne. This was simply an opportunity given to him by the person who stole the little emperor. If he didn't seize it, he would be sorry.
What a great gift!
check!
We must trace the whereabouts of the little emperor Xianyuan! Then kill him, we must kill him!
Pei Zhan left this matter to Li Tianfang. Li Tianfang was one of Pei Zhan's most trusted generals. Otherwise, Pei Zhan would not have handed over Kaifeng to him and given him a hundred thousand troops. He occupied Kaifeng and controlled the small town.
The emperor and one hundred thousand generals, Li Tianfang already has the capital to stand on his own. But he is still loyal to Pei Zhan and has never thought about replacing him. With his current strength, he only needs to force the young emperor to issue an edict and transfer the throne to Pei Zhan.
Wouldn't it be a simple thing to pass it on to him, Li Tianfang? It seems very simple and cost-effective, but Li Tianfang is not a fool. He dares to do something that even Pei Zhan doesn't dare to do?
If he really forces the young Emperor Xianyuan to give up the throne to him, then Li Tianfang will immediately become the target of public criticism! Not to mention the leading guards on the left and right who are watching covetously on one side, Pei Zhan will also abandon Jizhou and not fight, and immediately lead the army
The army returned to Kaifeng. Pei Zhan had an army of 400,000, and Li Tianfang did not think that he was stronger than Zhao Tieguai.
Li Tianfang was sipping tea leisurely. He looked very at ease. He seemed not worried at all about Pei Zhan, who had encountered big problems in the north. Pei Zhan was his master. If his master had no problems, how would his subordinates fare well?
?There is no doubt that the answer is yes. If Pei Zhan dies, he is the biggest beneficiary. As the number two figure in the Ding'an Army, if Pei Zhan dies, whose Ding'an Army belongs to him? Who owns Kaifeng? Da Zhou
Whose world is it?
It belongs to him, Li Tianfang!
Loyal?
That's because the chips for betrayal are not enough!
"It's been several months, and there's still no news about our little master. I really don't know how Yu Xiaolou does things!"
Li Tianfang said something seemingly angry.
Li Tianfang's military advisor Cao Qinyu frowned and said: "Master Hou, I always feel that Yu Xiaolou will not pass the exam. He is loyal to the Chai family. Master Hou asked him to be responsible for finding His Majesty. I'm afraid he will be found."
.If Your Majesty returns to the palace, the Marquis's plan will probably be delayed."
Li Tianfang was granted the title of Marquis of Yongwu, and Cao Qinyu always liked to address him by his title rather than his military rank.
Li Tianfang said: "Yuanmou, do you think Yu Xiaolou will try his best to find our little master?"
Cao Qinyu nodded and said: "When the late emperor was in power, Yu Xiaolou was extremely favored. His loyalty to the royal family can be said to be unmatched by even Huben Protector Luo Xu. If it hadn't been for some things that angered the late emperor and was scolded by the cane.
If they were imprisoned in the sky prison and had his palace, Pei Yan, Xu Zhong and that treacherous villain would not have been able to hide it for so long. I have been thinking that His Highness King Zhou released Yu Xiaolou from the sky prison.
, isn’t it a bit sloppy?”
Li Tianfang waved his hand and said: "Yuanmou, don't talk about His Royal Highness the King of Zhou behind his back. His Highness is as wise as the sea and has foresight. How can ordinary people like you and me guess it?"
Cao Qinyu smiled and said: "My Lord, there are only two of us, the master and the slave, at this time. What should we be afraid of?"
Li Tianfang laughed and scolded: "You are so bold. Do you believe that I will go to His Highness King Zhou to file a complaint against you?"
Cao Qinyu bowed and said, "Master Hou is reluctant to part with you."
Li Tianfang pointed at Cao Qinyu and said: "You, you are always so virtuous that a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water... You said that Yu Xiaolou is unreliable. I thought so too at first. But later I found out that King Zhou had promised him
One thing, I just realized that that sentence is indeed a wise saying."
"What words?"
"Loyalty because the benefits of betrayal are not enough!"
Cao Qinyu was shocked. The first thing that came to his mind was not what Pei Zhan had promised Yu Xiaolou, but that he was loyal to Li Tianfang. Did Li Tianfang doubt himself when he said these words today?
Seeing the difference in his expression, Li Tianfang immediately understood what he was thinking. Li Tianfang picked up the tea cup and took a sip and said: "Yuanmou, you don't have to worry about anything, I believe in you. Although I don't believe in loyalty, I
I believe that the benefits I can give you are the greatest. What you can get from me is also the greatest, so I will not doubt your loyalty to me."
Hearing this, Cao Qinyu felt a chill in his heart, but then he felt relieved.
"I don't know, what conditions did King Zhou promise Yu Xiaolou?"
"Marquis! Moreover, the King of Zhou asked Yu Xiaolou to choose one of his descendants from his hometown family to adopt as his sect, and the title would be hereditary. In other words, Yu Xiaolou could establish a family of his own. Establishing an aristocratic family was a matter of course.
What a glorious thing?"
He smiled and said with some contempt: "For a eunuch, this is simply a pie falling from the sky, and it is a big and fragrant pie. Yu Xiaolou, he will not refuse this temptation.
.Think about it, a eunuch can be granted a title and establish a family, what else can he ask for in this life?"
Cao Qinyu was stunned. He really didn't expect that King Zhou would offer such a big bargaining chip. The key is, Yu Xiaolou, is he worth the price?
"Don't underestimate Yu Xiaolou!"
Li Tianfang said leisurely: "If anyone underestimates this eunuch, he will suffer a loss. He... is a ruthless character who eats people without spitting out their bones. When the late emperor was reluctant to kill him, didn't he cherish his talent? When the late emperor refused to use it,
Isn't it because he is too ambitious? It is always bad for a eunuch to be too ambitious."
Cao Qinyu had something to say, but in the end he endured it. He wanted to ask, even if a eunuch is granted the title of Marquis, even if a son is adopted to him, he is still an eunuch. Those titles, wealth, family, etc., have nothing to do with him.
It's too big a relationship. Can someone like Yu Xiaolou really be bribed? There are actually only two answers, yes, and no. Cao Qinyu would rather believe it is the latter, because although he is loyal to Li Tianfang, he still can't bear to watch.
The Chai family was on the verge of destruction. After all, he was also a citizen of the Great Zhou Dynasty. After all, his father was once an official in the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Kaifeng Xiuyue Tower, the name makes it easy for everyone to judge that this place is a brothel. Obviously this is wrong. Xiuyue Tower is a restaurant, and it is one of the top three most famous restaurants in Kaifeng. This
The restaurant was opened three years ago. It is said that the owner was a Southern Tang businessman. Because he was oppressed by the Southern Tang court, he fled to Dazhou with his wife and children. After traveling to Kaifeng Mansion, he opened the Xiuyue Restaurant. Go there.
Anyone who has been to Jinling, the capital of the Southern Tang Dynasty, knows that there is indeed a Xiuyue Tower in Jinling. The owner of Xiuyue Tower is surnamed Ji. Because he did not want to mention his original name again, he changed his name to Ji Wuming.
Ji Wuming is in his thirties this year. He looks like a very amiable fat man. He is kind to people. No matter whether the people who enter Xiuyue Tower are ordinary people or dignitaries, he always greets them with a smile and never judges people by their appearance. He is very good at doing this.
In just three years of business, Xiuyuelou’s name has become well-known in the market.
The cook at Xiuyue Tower is said to be the royal chef that Ji Wuming paid a lot of money to poach from the Southern Tang Palace. As for the method he used to steal the royal chef, it is impossible to guess. He has offended the royal family of the Southern Tang Dynasty. Since
If you can steal yourself out of Southern Tang Dynasty, it is not difficult to steal someone to trust you.
Ji Wuming is very professional in stealing people, especially stealing people from the palace.
It was he who stole Chai Zongrang, the young emperor of the Xian Yuan Dynasty, from the heavily guarded palace of the Great Zhou Dynasty. There is no doubt that he is from the Overwatch Council of the Han Dynasty. As for the rich businessman of the Southern Tang Dynasty, it is just a lie that is not very clever. Been there
Everyone in Jinling in the Southern Tang Dynasty knew that there was Xiuyue Tower in Jinling, but who would go all the way to Jinling to check out such a boring thing during this time of war and chaos?
There are boring people. This person is always so boring, cold and boring in the eyes of others.
