Chapter Five Hundred and Seven: The Son of Heaven Summons
Xiao Wen sneered, Dianwei Zhao Yun put away his weapon, followed Xiao Wen, and returned to Long Mansion.
As soon as the three of them entered the house, the entire Dragon Mansion was immediately closed and a strong wind surged in, leaving only two groups of people standing outside the door.
When the news of Xiao Wen's actions reached the ears of Zhang Rang and He Jin, the two dignitaries in the DPRK immediately showed angry looks on their faces.
There seemed to be burning anger in his eyes, and he wanted to drag out Xiao Wen and kill him!
How dare you refuse your own invitation?
Does he really think that as a hussar general, he can run rampant between the government and the public?
If you can make him become the Cavalry General, you can naturally drag him down from the position of Cavalry General!
But don't make us guys anxious.
Otherwise, it’s not good for anyone!
However, at the same time that anger arose in the hearts of these two people, news came from the palace, saying that the emperor Liu Hong had spread the news and asked Xiao Wen to enter the palace secretly. Now the person who invited Xiao Wen to enter the palace has arrived outside the Dragon Mansion.
In fact, Xiao Wen did receive similar news. After Zhang Rang and He Jin's people left, Liu Hong's people also came.
The man was wearing a black robe, so that his face could not be seen clearly, but he held a token from the Zhongdu official in his hand, saying that he was following the emperor's order to invite Xiao Wen into the palace.
Xiao Wen frowned, but found this matter more and more strange.
It’s just that people from Zhang Rang and He Jin came before.
They were all sent away by themselves, but it didn't matter much.
But now?
Even Liu Hong's people came, and their identities were different, they were officials and disciples of Zhongdu!
You know, judging from the intelligence previously obtained by Baibao Pavilion, there was an internal purge between the officials, disciples, and subordinates of Zhongdu just a few days ago.
Now, someone actually came to the door and said that they were ordered by the emperor to invite Xiao Wen to the palace for a talk.
Under such circumstances, how could Xiao Wen not be suspicious?
Just when Xiao Wen was suspicious and unsure whether he needed to trust the other party, the other party told some of Liu Hong's secrets as a way to gain Xiao Wen's trust and let Xiao Wen imagine.
What came out of his mouth was not anything else but our emperor, with two faces.
They are ignorant and ignorant in front of others, but they are a shrewd group in the future!
He even secretly planned several actions to seize power. Although it failed in the end, fortunately he acted very well and was not exposed. Instead, he put the blame on various officials.
Now, he asked Xiao Wen to come to Beijing for only one reason. His physical condition declined rapidly, and he could no longer perform some things, so he had to find another way to use Xiao Wen's hand to arrange the backup plan.
.
With this calculation, Xiao Wen could guess a thing or two in his mind.
However, even though he could guess it, it didn't mean that he could agree with it and that he was willing to be that guy's lackey.
Today's Luoyang, on the surface, seems to be peaceful. The emperor is seriously ill, and the Shi Changshi and the general are in charge of the government. Although there are frictions between the two, fortunately, they are within control. Both sides are happy.
Didn't cross the line.
But what about actually?
It is true that many forces are entangled and intertwined.
These forces are eager to take action and kill their opponents.
But because he was afraid of the opponent's power and felt that he was not completely sure of winning, he left some room for action and did not make a fatal move.
It's just a test!
Although Liu Hong was seriously injured at this time, he was hiding behind the scenes because of his serious injury.
Xiao Wen didn't know what this guy was thinking while lying in the hospital bed.
However, now that I have the opportunity, I would like to go to the palace and ask a few questions.
"Brother, please lead the way." Xiao Wen's eyes fell on the Zhongdu official and disciple, and he spoke out.
Hearing this, the officials and disciples of Zhongdu were overjoyed and quickly led Xiao Wen out, and then entered the imperial city through a secret passage.
Before entering the secret passage, Xiao Wen was blindfolded and then moved forward under the guidance of the official from Zhongdu.
Halfway through, Xiao Wen tentatively used the previous purges among officials and subordinates in Zhongdu to test this guy.
This guy was calmer than Xiao Wen imagined, and he immediately told the reason for the incident.
"A little person knows some taboos that he shouldn't know, and he suffers the disaster of death!"
"Sometimes, although the competition between big people is silent and invisible, it is not something that other people can touch. Therefore, when faced with certain things, being blind or pretending to be deaf will actually lead to a longer life than normal people
!”
"This is especially true for those of us who work in intelligence. Only by knowing what we should know and what we don't know and doing what we should do can we save our lives. Otherwise, there is only a dead end.
That’s all.”
"Sometimes, he thinks that the things he does are for His Majesty, but he never knows that what he thinks is just what he thinks. But what he wants to do is His Majesty's displeasure."
"Such a person will not live long, so he should die!"
Halfway through, a cold and stiff voice came out, ringing in Xiao Wen's ears, but it made Xiao Wen frown.
Although the whole person was silent, anyone with a discerning eye could see that he was not happy at the moment.
In other words, it is anger!
Don’t treat people as people!
In other words, the one sitting in the palace now treats everyone as his pawns.
Including myself!
The emperor is ruthless, the emperor is ruthless.
In his eyes, apart from calculation, there is probably no other word.
However, if you think about it carefully, you can find that this is Liu Hong's character.
For a moment, Xiao Wen's steps were a little faster than before. Not long after, the blindfold on Xiao Wen's face was taken off, and at this moment, he had already appeared in the palace.
Not far from him is the palace of the current emperor Liu Hong.
Inside the palace, the lights are brightly lit.
Outside the palace, no one was on duty.
No!
If you smell it carefully, you can smell a few traces of bloody smell floating in the air.
It should be that in order to see Xiao Wen, this emperor did not hesitate to expose his power hidden in the palace and killed all the guards arranged by Zhang Rang at the door of the palace.
The purpose was just to meet Xiao Wen.
Xiao Wen glanced at the official disciple of Zhongdu beside him.
The man stood aside, bowed and said, "General Hussar, please come into the palace. Your Majesty is already waiting in the palace."
Hearing this, Xiao Wen did not hesitate and walked forward in three or two steps. Soon he arrived at the door of the palace.
Although he was standing outside the door, he could look through the gap in the door and see the man leaning on the bed.
The Emperor of the Han Dynasty, Liu Hong!
"General, please pay homage to Your Majesty." Xiao Wen stood outside the door and called in a low voice.
