Xia Shouzhong personally sent Dai Quan out of the Yangxin Palace and watched him and Xiao Lizi go away before returning to the emperor's palace.
"Dai Quan is gone?" the emperor asked leisurely.
"As far as I'm concerned, Dai Quan has left." Xia Shouzhong stood before the emperor and replied respectfully.
The emperor nodded, thinking that in a few days he would go to Ningshou Palace to report Jia Ke to the Emperor. Although it might not be effective, if he went a few more times, the Emperor would become suspicious, and then Dai Quan would be added.
He didn't trust Jia Ke even though he was beating the drum nearby, and he could still gain the trust of the Emperor.
Early the next morning, Jia Ke had just practiced a set of Fangtian painted halberds in the courtyard when he saw Liu Yu hurriedly coming to his side.
"Uncle, Wei Kun is here and is waiting in my room. He said he has something important to report to the uncle." Liu Yu said anxiously.
Since Jia Ke recalled Wei Kun from Xuanfu Town, the two of them have only met a few times. The information passed between them was always carried out by spies. What happened this time? He actually came in person.
Jia Ke immediately said to Liu Yu: "Go to my study to talk." After saying that, Jia Ke went to his study in advance.
Jia Ke didn't wait long in the study when Liu Yu and Wei Kun came.
"Master, Wei Kun has saluted you." Wei Kun quickly saluted Jia Ke as soon as he entered the study.
"Don't be so long-winded. If you have something to say, talk quickly and don't delay it." Jia Ke said to Wei Kun impatiently.
Liu Yu saw that Wei Kun had confidential information to report to Jia Ke, so he saluted Jia Ke: "Uncle, I'm watching you from outside the door, you can talk at ease." After saying that, he walked out of the room.
Wei Kun then took a few steps forward and came to Jia Ke's side, and said in a low voice: "Uncle, last night a secret agent from Ningshou Palace came to report that the emperor secretly summoned Dai Quan in the middle of the night.
I left Ningshou Palace at the next watch and came back just before the fifth watch."
Jia Ke had already heard Fan Kang's speculation on this matter yesterday, so he was not surprised. But he didn't expect that the emperor was so anxious that he couldn't even wait a few days.
"How is the Emperor's health recently?" Jia Ke is not interested in the alliance between the Emperor and Dai Quan. His main concern now is the Emperor's health. In fact, Jia Ke is already a little anxious now. He said in front of Fan Kang that it was before the Emperor died.
If he doesn't take action, he actually wishes that the Emperor would die immediately.
"None of the spies in Ningshou Palace have a high status and cannot get into the presence of the Supreme Emperor. However, according to several spies, the Supreme Emperor has not left Ningshou Palace for more than a month. He is not as frequent as before.
Come out and take a walk in the garden to enjoy the flowers." Although Wei Kun did not tell the specific situation of the Supreme Emperor, smart people already knew that the Supreme Emperor's health was probably in ruins.
When Jia Ke heard that the Emperor was in poor health, he couldn't help but smile. If it weren't for the Emperor's favor in promoting him and fear that his reputation would not be good in the future, he wouldn't have waited so long.
But now it seems that the Supreme Emperor is on his last legs. In order to pave the way for the Emperor, I am afraid that as a powerful minister, I have no value left. I wonder what the Supreme Emperor will do with him as a "loyal minister" in the last period of time?
After Jia Ke sent Wei Kun away, he sat alone in the study and was silent for a long time. He thought about it, thinking about how if he were the Supreme Emperor, how would he weaken his rights now that he was already full-fledged? How would he attack himself?
?
Jia Ke was silent for a long time, and finally came to the conclusion that if he wanted to deal with himself now, it was just to paralyze himself. Then he suddenly launched a palace ban and executed himself in the palace.
However, this trick is enough to deal with ordinary powerful officials. If it is used against myself, it may not be successful. If you use your own force to break out of the palace, the emperor and the supreme emperor will immediately die without a burial place.
After Jia Ke figured it out, he felt relieved. At the same time, he also stepped up his guard. From now on, whenever he entered the palace, he would wear armor on the inside and brocade robe on the outside. The soft sword in his waist would never leave his body.
In the following period, the world seemed to be at peace. Jia Ke was still in charge of the Military Aircraft Department and obeyed the instructions of the Supreme Emperor. However, the emperor seemed to be getting more and more cowardly and was completely under Jia Ke's suppression.
During this period, the emperor often accompanied the emperor at his bedside. Every time the emperor used medicine, he had to personally try it before sending it to the emperor.
Because of the emperor's attitude, the emperor began to let down his guard against the emperor. Sometimes the father and son could even open up and talk to each other. The emperor also began to teach the emperor the tactics that a king should have.
The Supreme Emperor already knew in his heart that he was about to die soon, so he began to plan his escape. The first thing he had to give to the Emperor was the way of balance. This was the method of handling government affairs that the Supreme Emperor had summarized over the years.
Even at the last moment, the emperor and Jia Ke were put on the front stage to fight in the ring, so that they would not be unbalanced.
If someone else's move was very effective, the two people controlling him would have almost no room to resist. But this time, Jia Ke has superpowers, and now Jia Ke's power is not something that the Supreme Emperor can control at all.
And their every move was under Jia Ke's close attention. Jia Ke guessed that they were about to take action against him. He didn't believe that the Supreme Emperor would be deceived by this little trick. I'm afraid that the Supreme Emperor already understood that his own time
Not much more. Start teaching the new emperor with all your strength, and then it’s time to pave the way for the new emperor. With him as a stumbling block, the emperor is the first to overthrow it. Otherwise, how can the emperor take power after the death of the emperor?
As expected by Jia Ke, one day the emperor had just put the emperor to bed, and the father and son started chatting at the bedside.
I don't know why it came up with Jia Ke. As soon as he mentioned Jia Ke, the emperor's whole body began to tremble, as if he was extremely frightened. Half of the emperor's actions were pretending. The other half was somewhat sincere, because every time he looked at
When I saw Jia Ke, I couldn't help but think of that strange dream and the last words his mother said to him. These words were like thousands of ants gnawing at his heart, making him suffer.
The Supreme Emperor was lying on the bed, watching the emperor's performance, and asked: "Are you really afraid of him, or are you just acting in front of me?"
The emperor controlled the trembling of his body, lowered his head and said to the Supreme Emperor: "Father, my son will not lie to you. I am half really afraid of him."
When the Supreme Emperor heard this, he immediately became angry. This was the emperor he personally chose. How could he be so cowardly that even a minister was afraid? In this case, how could he trust him with his country?
"You bastard, what's so scary about a minister? I can move this stone for you with just one word." The Supreme Emperor panted and reprimanded the emperor.
The emperor glanced helplessly at the Supreme Emperor and said, "Father, I'm afraid you can't help me now. You have supported Jia Ke too much. If Jia Ke has any evil intentions now, I'm afraid we won't be able to cure him at once."
The Supreme Emperor didn't believe his lies at all, and just looked at him and sneered, "Do you really think you can rest assured that I have given Jia Ke such great military power? Since I can give him military power, I can easily get it back."
After hearing what the Emperor said, the Emperor's eyes lit up. He had always thought that the Emperor had great trust in Jia Ke, almost to the point of no doubt. Unexpectedly, the Emperor had left some means to deal with Jia Ke. This really taught him a lesson.
trick.
If it were in the capital, maybe the army could really be under the control of the Supreme Emperor, but Jia Ke's confidants controlled Xuanfu and the two towns in Liaodong. Once there was a change in the capital, these two groups of people would be able to gather in the capital within a day or two and arrive at
I'm afraid the world will turn upside down at that time.
"Father, please don't underestimate Jia Ke. I have been suppressed by him for so long. Is it really because I deliberately showed weakness to him? I really have no other choice." The emperor finally said it.
His scruples about Jia Ke.
When the Emperor heard what the Emperor said, he became more and more disappointed with him. In the Emperor's heart, Jia Ke was a dog he raised. This owner could kill the dog and eat its meat at any time. Unexpectedly, his son actually felt sorry for this dog.
fear.
"Why are you afraid of Jia Ke? In the capital, on the surface Jia Ke controls the entire army, but in fact many of the generals only listen to my command. As long as things change, I'm afraid Jia Ke won't be able to mobilize a single soldier.
"The Emperor said confidently.
"What my father said is too much. I'm afraid my father doesn't understand Jia Ke anymore. Could it be that my father really never thought that Jia Ke would not do anything in the capital camp after controlling it for so long.
Once Jia Ke takes control of the capital, we, father and son, will be his puppets." The emperor expressed his guess word by word.
After hearing the emperor's words, the Supreme Emperor also became a little suspicious. After all, everyone has selfish motives. Is this Jia Ke loyal to him and not selfish at all? As long as Jia Ke has a little selfishness and places some people in the army, there will be
May slowly control the entire Beijing camp.
Thinking of this, the Supreme Emperor suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. He didn't know why he made such a big mistake in his later years, actually leaving the entire capital's army in the hands of one person, and not asking any careful questions for such a long time.
But the Supreme Emperor immediately changed his mind. He glanced at the emperor sideways, and then thought in his heart, I am afraid that although Jia Ke has some power and selfishness, and can control part of the capital's army, most people will never vote for Jia Ke.
On that side, because these generals have been loyal ministers for several lifetimes, and each of them was carefully selected by himself before taking office, it is impossible for them to vote for Jia Ke. Now, under his military orders, they are just giving it to Jia Ke.
Right, as long as he removes Jia Ke from his post, he will not be able to move a single soldier.
In the eyes of the Supreme Emperor, Jia Ke still has not gone beyond his control. This is probably the emperor deliberately framed Jia Ke, but now his condition may not be able to support it. Since the emperor is so afraid of Jia Ke, then he will use Jia Ke as a torment.
The sword stone makes the emperor's sword sharper.
And now that the Emperor thinks about it, Jia Ke's power is indeed a bit too great. He almost controls military and government affairs. It's time to take this piece off the chessboard.
The emperor saw the strange behavior of the Supreme Emperor from the side, and knew that the Supreme Emperor had figured out the key, and the corner of his mouth could not help but curl up.
