Chapter five hundred and twentieth IX planning things in people(1/2)
Chapter 529: Planning is up to others
As Li Longji fell asleep, the horror of the Nanming Palace finally came to an end. Concubine Wu Hui sat in front of the dressing table, allowing two palace maids to treat the wounds on her face. Her hair was disheveled and her left eye was dark. Li Longji punched her hard and still had blurred vision. Concubine Wu Hui couldn't remember how many times she was beaten by Li Longji. In name, she was the leader of the Six Palaces of the Southern Tang Dynasty, but in fact, who could know her pain? She slaps her palms, grabbed her hair and hit the wall. As today, she beat her as the face of so many palace people. Is this the leader of the Six Palaces with noble status? When will this life worse than death end?
Concubine Wu Hui couldn't help but think of her two sons, one died tragically and the other became An Lushan's puppet. She didn't know that she had no chance to see each other again in her life. The more she thought about it, she became more and more sad. She couldn't help but feel sad and lay on the dressing table and burst into tears.
The crying of Concubine Wu Hui made the palace maids around her cry. In the Nanming Palace, their fate only has one destination, that is, they were beaten to death, either today or tomorrow. At this time, Yu Chaoen, who came in to observe Concubine Hui's injuries, couldn't help but sigh secretly. He was escorting Concubine Wu Hui to Chengdu. They slept all the way and shared worries with each other. They always had a sense of protection for Concubine Wu Hui Yu Chaoen. Now that Concubine Wu Hui was abused by Li Longji, Yu Chaoen was full of sympathy for her, but he had no choice. Li Longji was crazy and crazy and wanted to kill anyone, and even Yu Chaoen could not escape death. He could only hope that Li Heng could come to Chengdu to succeed to the throne earlier and give everyone a relief.
Seeing that Wu Huifei was crying sadly, Yu Chaoen wanted to persuade her but didn't know what to say. He had to sigh and leave Wu Huifei's bedroom. He walked to the palace gate. He was about to go back to his room, but a little eunuch pulled his clothes and handed him a note quietly.
Yu Chaoen was stunned. He opened the note and took a look, quickly put it away, nodded and said, "I understand."
Yu Chaoen turned around his residence, but turned out of the inner palace and walked out of a small door. He was a confidant eunuch beside Li Longji. He was extremely powerful and the guards guarded the gate were respectful. No one dared to stop him when he entered and left the palace gate.
It was already late at night, and the night rain was still hazy. Yu Chaoen walked out of the palace with a swagger. No one dared to stop him. He got on a carriage and ordered: "Go to Fuxingfang!"
The carriage started, gradually accelerated, and soon disappeared into the dark night.
Nanming Palace is not far from Fuxingfang, only three miles apart. In a moment, the carriage arrived at the gate of Fuxingfang. A follower waved the token in the palace to the gatekeeper. The gatekeeper did not dare to be negligent, so he hurriedly opened the gate. The carriage drove in quickly and soon arrived at the side door of Prince Rong's mansion.
This is not the first time Yu Chaoen has been here, and he can't remember how many times he has come, and he can't remember how much benefit he has taken from King Rong. Li Longji's ability to select King Rong to seize most of Gao Xianzhi's military power is also related to his Yu Chaoen. It can be said that Yu Chaoen is the ally of King Rong's palace.
A family member was waiting here at the side door. When he saw Yu Chaoen's carriage coming, he immediately opened the door and welcomed Yu Chaoen in.
"Have your prince slept?" Yu Chaoen asked as he walked.
"No, the prince is still in the study, and Yang Xiangguo is also there."
"Yang Guozhong?"
Yu Chaoen stopped. What was Yang Guozhong doing in Prince Rong's Mansion so late? Yu Chaoen felt an ominous feeling in his heart. Li Wan was so anxious to call him, something must have happened.
He pondered for a moment, but still followed his family to Li Wan's inner study.
Wei Qingping had already left, but Yang Guozhong did not leave. He was kept by Li Wan. Li Wan ordered people to go to the palace overnight to deliver a letter to Yu Chaoen. Based on his usual experience, Yu Chaoen should have arrived soon.
At this time, there were rapid footsteps outside the door, and Li Wan whispered to Yang Guozhong and said, "He is here!"
Yang Guozhong sneered secretly. He, Yu Chaoen, had also dealt with him. He knew that this person was extremely greedy for bribery. He probably thought that King Rong would give him a great gift again!
Thinking of the heavy gift, Yang Guozhong couldn't help but glance at the big boxes in the corner of the wall. Half of the boxes of gold jewelry were also his. He felt distressed. When did he give such a heavy gift to someone? Just a eunuch, he actually cost so much money?
"Master, Yu Linggong has arrived."
Yu Linggong is the honorable title of Yu Chaoen by all officials in the Southern Tang Dynasty. It is not nice to call Yu Gong, and it is also ambiguous. Some people are extremely clever when they think of Yu Linggong. In this way, Yu Chaoen, who is less than forty years old, has his honorable title: Yu Linggong.
Li Wan got up and opened the door. Yu Chaoen stood outside the door with a gloomy face. He hurried forward and grabbed Yu Chaoen affectionately and said, "Mr. Ling is indeed a believer. I am still worried that it will not rain!"
Yang Guozhong also came forward and smiled and said, "I also made a bet with Your Highness Rong. I said Yu Linggong must come. He said he might not be able to come. I will win this time. Your Highness, don't bet on the debt!"
"I will never blame me if I admit my gambling."
Li Wan laughed loudly, and the two of them sang and reconciled, then pulled Yu Chaoen into the room. Li Wan asked him to sit down, poured another cup of tea, and asked with concern: "How are you?"
‘Everyone’ is the title of emperor privately by the Tang Dynasty officials. Li Wan deliberately did not use his father, but deliberately used everyone. This made Yu Chaoen, who was sensitive, stunned. He shook his head and said slowly: “It’s not good. Today I suspect someone is going to murder him. Eight people have been killed by sticks. I guess he will not be able to sleep well tonight. He wakes up tomorrow morning and is going to kill people again. Alas! How could he become like this? Accompanying the king is like a tiger!"
"Yes! When I talked to Yang Xiangguo just now, I felt very worried. If I keep going like this, sooner or later, he will kill us all, so we come to Ling Gong to discuss countermeasures."
‘Discussing countermeasures?’
Yu Chaoen suddenly became alert. What countermeasures should be discussed? What does it mean to call themselves in the middle of the night?
Or Yang Guozhong was anxious, and he couldn't help but enter the topic of today, "I want to ask Yu Linggong, has His Majesty's edict really sent away? I mean the person in the north."
Yu Chaoen suddenly realized that they were trying to deal with Li Heng. No wonder! There must be news in the palace that left, and this question was really hard to answer. He lowered his head and remained silent. Li Wan and Yang Guozhong looked at each other, and Li Wan said again: "Ling Gong might as well tell us the truth."
"Your worries are right!"
Yu Chaoen raised his head and sighed, "The emperor has issued an edict this afternoon, re-established Li Heng as the crown prince of the Eastern Palace. I guess everyone will see the edict tomorrow."
"What!"
Li Wan stood up suddenly and said frightenedly: "He clearly agreed to make me the prince, how could he change his mind again?"
Yu Chaoen smiled bitterly and said, "Your Highness, I say something you may not like to hear. The Lord has promised many people! He has agreed to both Sixteen and Eighteen Langs. That is just a means to win people's hearts temporarily. But this time Li Heng is different. He has issued a formal edict. This time he really made the crown prince. Li Heng was deposed a few years ago, and a few years later he made him the crown prince. The Lord told me that this is God's arrangement."
"No! It's not God's arrangement, God has arranged for me to ascend the throne."
The uncontrollable anger made Li Wan's calmness disappear without a trace. He grabbed Yu Chaoen's wrist and said, "Ling Gong, you must help me this time."
As he said that, he dragged Yu Chaoen towards the big box beside the wall. Yu Chaoen's wrist was pinched and hurt. He struggled and said, "Don't worry, your highness, I will definitely help..."
He didn't say the words behind him. He was stunned by the situation in front of him. The lids of the four large boxes were all opened, and the dazzling light shone so bright that he couldn't even open his eyes. He saw two large boxes filled with jewelry, jade and diamond agate, while the other two large boxes were filled with heavy gold nuggets, a piece of gold was two or three kilograms, and each box was at least hundreds of dollars.
"This, this is......"
Yu Chaoen was so shocked that he could not speak a word. Li Wan said in a deep voice: "This place is worth one million yuan, and it is my reward for Ling Gong."
"Give it to me!"
Yu Chaoen's eyes burst out with an extremely greedy light. He slowly walked forward, his hands deeply inserted into the jewelry and diamonds, and held up a handful of radiant gems and jade. These jades flowed down from the gaps in his fingers, making a sound of "ding ding dong dong!", as if they were more beautiful than fairy music.
"Are they all mine?"
Yu Chaoen felt that he was about to be unable to breathe, one million guan! He has only saved less than 200,000 guan in his life. Will he get one million guan in this night?
Li Wan looked at him quietly, knowing that this million monies were enough to make Yu Chaoen sell his mother.
Sure enough, Yu Chaoen took a deep breath, slowly turned his head and said, "Tell me! What do you want me to do?"

Yu Chaoen's carriage suddenly became heavier. The carriage carried Yu Chaoen and his newly made fortune did not return to Nanming Palace, but slowly headed towards Shangyuefang. Yu Chaoen's private house was in Shangyuefang. This was Yu Chaoen's usual style. He collected money first and then did things. If he couldn't do it, he would return half of it. Today, Yu Chaoen had never thought of returning the jewelry gold worth one million yuan. He accepted these jewelry gold.
At this moment, the chill at night finally made Yu Chaoen, who was extremely frenzy, finally woke up a little. At this time, he slowly realized why Li Wan thought of killing Li Longji, and even at the cost of one million jin of jewelry, he actually didn't have to do this. He had already mastered most of the military power. As long as he was mobilizing troops to force the palace, Li Longji would be forced to pass the throne to him. He could do this, so why did he do it himself?
Yu Chaoen slowly leaned against the cushion, and a sense of fear surged in his heart. He had already vaguely guessed Li Wan's intention. Could it be that he didn't want to kill someone with his own knife on the name of killing his father?
So, what about after killing someone? How will he treat himself? Will he have the merit of supporting him?
"parking!"
Yu Chaoen shouted lowly, and the carriage stopped. He got off the carriage and walked slowly along the street with his hands behind his back. It was late at night, and there was no one on the street. The raindrops floated down from the sky, covering the entire Chengdu in a mist. Yu Chaoen raised his head and let the dense raindrops hit his face, extinguishing the last trace of greed in his heart. At this time, he was completely awake. Those who killed people with extraordinary means would inevitably be killed by extraordinary means. At this time, Yu Chaoen turned around and looked at the carriage. There were four boxes of wealth that were enough to make people crazy in the back carriage, but in Yu Chaoen's eyes, it was not wealth, it was a chariot to buy his life.
At this moment, Yu Chaoen's eyes narrowed into a line were a trace of sinisterness. It was not a husband who was not poisonous. Since Li Wan was not kind, don't blame him Yu Chaoen for being unrighteous.

There is a place where scholars gather near the south gate of Chengdu, called Gongyuanfang. This is the Imperial College of the Southern Tang Dynasty and the location of the Imperial College of the Southern Tang Dynasty. Tens of thousands of young scholars from Bashu, Jingxiang and Wu gathered.
After Yu Chaoen's carriage returned to his mansion, he did not return to the palace, but came to Gongyuanfang again. The carriage stopped in front of a small mansion in Gongyuanfang. Yu Chaoen's entourage stepped forward and knocked on the door. After a moment, a crack was opened, and someone inside asked in surprise: "It's so late, who are you looking for?"
"Please tell the young master, and say that the eunuch, Ling Yu, asked for a meeting."
"Ah! You guys wait, I'll report now."
After a while, the door opened, and a young man in white clothes walked out of the door. He was about twenty-three or four years old. He hurried forward and bowed to Yu Chaoen and said, "I don't know that Ling Gong is coming. I'm sorry, please forgive me!"
"I should apologize if I came here uninvited. This is not a place to speak. Go in and talk!"
"Please please!"
This young man in white is Li Heng's third son, Li Geng, the king of Xincheng. Not long after Li Longji wrote the first letter to Li Heng, Li Geng sent his third son Li Geng to Chengdu to investigate the situation in Chengdu, and at the same time secretly attracted officials from the Southern Tang Dynasty.
Yu Chaoen is also one of the main characters that Li only strives for. He spent at least tens of thousands of yuan on Yu Chaoen and obtained a lot of insider information about Li Longji.
These days he was anxiously waiting for his father to enter Sichuan, but he didn't expect that Yu Chaoen would appear in the middle of the night. Li Geng's heart immediately started to play a drum. Could something happen to the palace again?
The lights in the room were lit, Yu Chaoen sat down, he took a sip of hot tea, and asked, "Where has the Lord been?"
When Li Chan heard that Yu Chaoen actually called his father the emperor, he felt a secret joy in his heart and hurriedly said, "I just received the news in the afternoon that my father had entered Jiange today."
"Well! The movement is very fast, it's better to be faster, otherwise something will happen!"
Li Teng heard something in Yu Chaoen's words, and was shocked and said anxiously: "Mr. Ling, what happened?"
"Didn't you think of it?"
Yu Chaoen sighed and shook his head and said, "Will everyone be happy and encouraged when the emperor enters Sichuan? Some are happy and some are sad!"
Li Tsing some of the taste, he asked tentatively: "Is it King Rong?"
