Dai Quan thought about it for a moment and said to the young eunuch: "Go back and talk to Lord Long Live. I will go over and pay my respects to Lord Long Live in a moment."
After saying this, he went straight to his room in Ningshou Palace.
The little eunuch who was kneeling on the ground did not dare to get up until Mr. Dai Quan was gone. Then he ran out of Ningshou Palace and disappeared into the darkness of the palace.
When all their people were gone, a figure suddenly appeared from the flowers nearby. The figure didn't waste much time and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Let's talk about Dai Quan. He returned to his room in Ningshou Palace, walked around on the floor, and thought carefully about what would be the outcome of today's meeting with the emperor, and what conditions could the emperor agree to?
Dai Lian looked at Dai Quan walking around and asked in confusion: "Godfather, is there anything wrong with us going to meet the emperor now? If the emperor finds out, our lives will be in danger."
exist."
"If you don't tell me and I don't tell you, how will the Supreme Emperor know about it?" Dai Quan glanced at Dai Lian with his sinister eyes.
When Dai Lian saw the look in Dai Quan's eyes, he was so frightened that he trembled all over and knelt on the ground with a plop, "Godfather, I am loyal to you. How dare I tell the truth to the Supreme Emperor?"
"I don't dare to measure you, a little brat." After Dai Quan beat Dai Lian, he thought carefully again and felt that the advantages of cooperating with the emperor outweighed the disadvantages. Finally, he made up his mind to risk the emperor's discovery and cooperate with the emperor.
Dai Lian thought for a moment and said: "Godfather, after thinking about it, I feel that this time is still very dangerous. Even if the emperor does not care about our past mistakes, Xia Shouzhong next to him is a villain who is both virtuous and jealous.
My godfather almost beat him to death once, and even if the emperor doesn't blame us, he will never let us go."
After hearing what he said, Dai Quan was suddenly startled. He only planned to plot against the emperor, but he didn't expect that there was Xia Shouzhong beside him. If he judged others by himself, if he had suffered such grievances, he would still treat him with a smile on the surface.
, but in my heart I wished that the other party would die immediately.
Dai Quan suddenly stood up when he thought of this, and said to Dai Lian next to him: "This Xia Shouzhong cannot be kept. He has had a relationship with the emperor for so many years, and he will definitely slander the emperor in the future. Find an opportunity to
He got rid of it."
Dai Lian was trembling with fear after hearing this. Although Xia Shouzhong has no position or power now, he is always serving in front of the emperor. And it is not that the emperor does not have any power in the palace, there is also a big force beside the emperor.
The forces are protecting the emperor, and I am afraid that I will be caught and exposed before I take action.
Seeing this situation, Dai Lian could only say helplessly: "Godfather, there are some capable people around the emperor. As long as Xia Shouzhong does not leave the emperor's side, we have no chance to take action. Besides, if you are angry, godfather,
Even among our secret guards, there are many people who have secretly turned to the emperor. If we had not acted carefully, the emperor would have known about it before we even took action."
Dai Quan ignored him and looked at the roof and said: "In this matter, you asked a few of your confidants to find an opportunity secretly. You are not in a hurry. You just need to get rid of Xia Shouzhong before the emperor takes power."
Dai Lian could only agree reluctantly, but he had a thought in his mind: Dai Quan offended Xia Shouzhong, what does it have to do with him? It's not that Xia Shouzhong will be in charge of the secret guard in the future, he will also need people to do things for him. As long as he surrenders to the past, he will come.
Xia Shouzhong would not do anything to himself in order to win people's hearts. As for his godfather Dai Quan, I'm sorry. Who made you offend the emperor?
At three o'clock that night, Dai Quan secretly came to Yangxin Hall alone.
As soon as Dai Quan approached the Yangxin Palace, a dark figure came from the side and intercepted him. Dai Quan looked through the moonlight and saw that this was the young eunuch who intercepted him in Ningshou Palace just now.
"Ancestor, you are not allowed to break into the Yangxin Palace. If you have a slave, I will guide you."
"That's it, you lead the way." Dai Quan said expressionlessly. In fact, Dai Quan was already very afraid of this little eunuch. He didn't know when the emperor arranged for this person to be beside him and the Supreme Emperor.
It has not been discovered for so long.
So the two people entered the Yangxin Hall from the side door. Xia Shouzhong had been waiting there for a long time in front of the emperor's palace. Today's meeting was of great importance, so the emperor did not arrange for anyone else, but asked
His confidant eunuch Xia Shouzhong was waiting here in person, so he was not afraid of the secret being leaked. If the Supreme Emperor knew this, wouldn't the Supreme Emperor suspect that he was trying to harm him?
When Xia Shouzhong was waiting impatiently, he suddenly saw two figures coming in front of him. Xia Shouzhong asked softly: "Who is coming? Don't you know this is the emperor's palace?"
"Grandpa Xia, it's my little plum, I've brought you the emperor's guests." The little eunuch answered Xia Shouzhong's question quickly.
Xia Shouzhong was relieved when he heard that it was him, and then he quickly took a few steps forward, came to another figure, and immediately knelt down on the ground, "Xia Shouzhong pays his respects to our ancestors."
The reason why Xia Shouzhong is so humble is because he has long been instructed by the emperor to be humble towards Dai Quan. It is still time to use Dai Quan now, and in the future, Dai Quan will naturally be handled by Xia Shouzhong himself.
"I said it's you, little monkey boy. I didn't expect the emperor to ask you to come to welcome our family." Dai Quan said with a proud look. This is Dai Quan's strategy this time. During the negotiation with the emperor, he should not be too cautious.
Although he is humble, he should not be too anxious. He should make the emperor feel that he is not in a hurry to reach an agreement, otherwise the emperor will think that he has already confirmed his power.
"Ancestor, please walk slowly. I will lead the way for you, kid." Xia Shouzhong did not have any dissatisfaction because of Dai Quan's rude words. He nodded and bowed to lead the way for him.
Seeing that Xia Shouzhong was such a governor, Dai Quan was not as arrogant as he had been some time ago. It seemed that the slap in the face made him remember the consequences.
So Dai Quan, led by Xia Shouzhong, entered the Yangxin Hall and came to the emperor's palace.
The emperor had not gone to bed at this time. He was wearing pajamas and holding a book, sitting at a table and reading boredly.
Suddenly there was the sound of heavy footsteps outside, and the emperor's spirit froze, and he knew that he was waiting for someone to come.
After Xia Shouzhong and Dai Quan entered the emperor's palace, Xia Shouzhong immediately knelt down to greet the emperor and said, "Master, I have brought you Grandpa Dai."
The emperor had already seen Dai Quan, who was standing behind Xia Shouzhong. The two looked at each other for a while, and then Dai Quan knelt down and asked the emperor for his blessings, "My slave, Dai Quan, please send your greetings to the emperor."
When the emperor saw Dai Quan surrendering, he stood up and walked to Dai Quan's side to help him, "Eunuch Dai, please get up quickly. You have served my father for so many years and you are considered half of my elders. How can you help me?"
Such a great gift.”
Dai Quan stood up after hearing what the emperor said.
"Long live the Lord, I'm recruiting slaves. I don't know what my orders are." After Dai Quan stood up, he asked the emperor cautiously.
"I came to you today for no other reason than to ask you to help me do a lot of harm to the court." The emperor had been waiting since dusk and was already a little impatient. So when he saw Dai Quan, he said straight to the point.
"Long live the Lord, the big harm you are talking about is not Jia Ke, the foreman of the Military Aircraft Department. If this is the case, the emperor does not dare to say nonsense. He is the confidant of the Supreme Emperor. Even if we meet him, we must give him some credit."
"Eunuch Dai, there is no need to hide it. At this point, let's tell the truth. This Jia Ke has been controlling the government in the past few months and has not taken me seriously at all. I think Eunuch Dai has also felt Jia Ke's domineering attitude.
"The emperor had already found out Dai Quan's whereabouts during this period before, and knew that Dai Quan had submitted several messages to the Ministry of Personnel, but Jia Ke had rejected them all.
Dai Quan lowered his head and thought for a while, then raised his head and said to the emperor: "Then Long Live Lord, what should I do if I want a slave?"
When the emperor heard what Dai Quan said, a bright light flashed in his eyes. Dai Quan seemed to agree to join forces with him.
"I don't want to embarrass Eunuch Dai. I just want to see the Supreme Emperor in a while and make a statement. I hope Eunuch Dai will be there to give me a few nice words." The emperor said bluntly.
When Dai Quan saw that the emperor didn't ask him to do anything dangerous, he just wanted to persuade him in front of the Supreme Emperor. Moreover, this matter was of great benefit to him without any harm. His skills pleased the emperor, and finally he was able to get rid of Jia Ke.
He wanted to avoid the disaster and let himself regain power. Why not do it, so he nodded and agreed, "If I just help the emperor to say a few good words in front of the emperor, and the slave is loyal to the royal family, this thing can still be done."
When the emperor heard Dai Quan's promise, he immediately showed joy on his face, "Eunuch Dai is indeed loyal to the royal family. When this important matter is completed, he will definitely not forget Eunuch Dai's great kindness."
"How can I, a lowly person, dare to make the Emperor grateful? I won't listen to anything else. I just ask the Emperor to see that I have done something for the Emperor, and to spare my life in the future so that I can have a good death." Dai Quan took the opportunity.
He stated his request, and he thought it was not too much.
"Okay, since Eunuch Dai has spoken so openly, I will make a promise to you now. After the death of the Supreme Emperor, you will return to your hometown for retirement." The emperor saw that Dai Quan did not make any excessive demands.
, and now is the critical moment, so I agreed to him.
However, the emperor did not tell Dai Quan that he had agreed. After Xia Shouzhong died, Dai Quan would be at his disposal. As for agreeing to Dai Quan to return to his hometown for retirement, he would still do it. As for how he died after returning to his hometown, he did not care.
.
Dai Quan felt relieved when he saw that the emperor had given him a sure word. During this period, as the emperor's condition became more and more serious, he became more and more anxious. Now he could finally feel relieved.
Dai Quanjian settled the matter and knelt down to bid farewell to the emperor, "Long live my lord, if there is nothing else, I will take my leave first. After all, the Emperor has not slept well during this period, and I may still need my servant to serve him by his side."
"Okay, you go as soon as possible. Father's business is urgent." The emperor saw that it was already late, so he did not say anything to stop him.
