"This is going to be troublesome. Uncle Zhang Zhi holds the power of the first battalion to attack the palace. If he is not willing to cooperate with us, the difficulty of the plan will be greatly increased." Kong Rong sighed.
"When our plan succeeds, we will definitely make them both pay the price." Zhang Chao said angrily.
"By the way, Kong Situ, have the Kong family promised to support us?" Zhang Miao asked.
"this……"
Kong Rong immediately hesitated. There was no way he could say that the Kong family not only did not support him, but instead sided with Qin Hao, and were also preparing to expel him from the family.
How could Kong Rong say this? If he really said it all, it would be too demoralizing.
Someone from the Kong family had come to Kong Rong before and expressed the Kong family's opinions in a vague way, but Kong Rong didn't understand it at the time.
Just a month ago, when the Kong family asked Kong Xuan to come to Luoyang and directly approached Kong Rong, they clearly expressed the Kong family's attitude.
The Kong family has decided to side with Qin Hao, so not only do they not support Kong Rong, but they are also afraid that Kong Rong will harm the family, and hope that Kong Rong can stay away from the imperial party, otherwise he will no longer be a member of the Kong family.
The Kong family, whose family tradition was based on loyalty and filial piety, would actually help thieves instead of Han people?
Kong Rong couldn't believe that this was a family decision, and he got into a big fight with Kong Xuan in anger.
Kong Xuan originally wanted to persuade Kong Rong. After all, he and Kong Rong had a good relationship. Kong Rong was famous for giving away pears when he was four years old, and his younger brother Kong Peng was the one who was given pears by Kong Rong.
Kong Xuan and Kong Rong grew up together, so they naturally did not want Kong Rong to go to a dead end, but they did not expect that Kong Rong would be so stubborn and would not listen to anything he said, so he threw up his sleeves and left in anger.
As soon as Kong Xuan left, Kong Rong regretted it. After all, this clan brother was different from him who only studied Confucian classics. He was a real grand master level master, the kind who could be ranked among the best in the world.
If this clan brother could be tricked into helping the Han Dynasty fight against the Qin thieves, the imperial party would also have a top-notch combat force, and at least they would not be able to find anyone who could assassinate Jia Xu.
However, when he thought about it, Kong Xuan, the clan brother, was both wise and brave, and he was not easy to fool. At least he would not go against his own family, so Kong Rong naturally felt relieved.
Seeing Kong Rong faltering and unable to speak, the eyes of Zhang Miao and others also became strange. Zhang Chao said: "It's not like the Kong family doesn't support us, right?"
Hearing this, Kong Rong quickly explained: "How could it happen? The Confucian leadership battle is coming to an end. The family is doing its best to help Qiu Di and compete with Meng Ke of the Meng family for the leadership, so there is no manpower available to support him.
we."
This was naturally made up by Kong Rong on the spur of the moment. After all, Confucius already had an absolute advantage in the Confucian leadership dispute. Even if he did not need the support of the Confucian family, Confucius would not lose to Meng Ke.
In addition, the competition for the leadership of Confucianism has come to an end. Kong Qiu of the Confucian family has completely defeated Meng Ke of the Mencius family, but there are still some cumbersome steps to take over as the leader.
Naturally, outsiders didn't know about this matter. If Kong Rong used this to deceive others, it would be impossible to expose it.
Kong Rong was one of the leaders of the imperial party. Naturally, no one would easily doubt what he said.
Ma Rixi said with a look of regret: "That's such a pity. I heard that the Kong family produced a peerless master named Kong Xuan, who once fought against the Qi State with his own strength, and his strength was not even that of Li Cunxiao.
If we can get help from Mr. Kong Xuan, why should we be afraid of Jia Wen and that old thief?"
"yes."
Kong Rong sighed, but he smiled bitterly in his heart and thought to himself: If Kong Xuan was really here, everyone present, including him, would cry!
"Kong Situ, a certain family has entrusted all their wealth and life to you. Now it's time for you to tell everyone the truth and boost their morale, right?" Zhang Chao asked.
Zhang Miao and others also nodded. After all, their lives and fortunes were all in danger. If they failed, they would be punished by the Nine Tribes. Naturally, they also wanted to know what the imperial party's trump card was against Jia Xu. After all, no one wanted to be themselves now.
What was being carried out was a coup that had no chance of success.
After hearing this, Kong Rong subconsciously looked at Yang Jun, and Yang Jun looked at the boy next to him with his head lowered, and then nodded to Kong Rong.
After Kong Rong understood it, he smiled and said: "Don't worry, now four of the ten battalion captains of the new army are our people. Among the integrated army of aristocratic families, most of them have decided to support your majesty. As long as your majesty gives the order,
These armies will defect immediately, Luoyang will be in chaos in an instant, and the city gates will be opened to welcome the Tang army into the city."
"But Mr. Situ and the old thief Jia Xu have implemented military control. The new barracks and the integrated army have been completely cut off from the outside world. How can we contact them to start an uprising?" Zhang Miao asked.
"You don't need to worry about this. I will only have means when the time comes. Sirs, you just need to remember that the great things we are planning have a high probability of success."
Although Kong Rong did not tell them everything, Zhang Miao and Zhang Chao felt a lot more at ease. After all, how could it be possible to explain everything clearly about such a big thing as a coup?
Some hands are enough for them.
After Zhang Miao and others were sent away, Kong Rong, Ma Rixi and Yang Jun came to the back hall, and with them was the boy beside Yang Jun.
Seeing that there was no one around, the boy immediately took off his cloth hat, revealing a stern young face, which was exactly the same as Liu Xie in the palace.
Seeing this, Kong Rong asked Yang Jun in a low voice: "Juncai (Yang Jun's pseudonym), is this Mr. Yang Ping or not?"
Yang Jun showed a wry smile. He actually couldn't tell the difference, but after seeing those sharp eyes, he still said with certainty: "It's your Majesty."
"What?"
Everyone was immediately shocked and quickly knelt down and saluted, saying: "See your Majesty."
"Only in front of you can I truly look like an emperor."
After Liu Xie sighed softly, he stretched out his hand to support her and said, "Let's all get back together."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Kong Rong asked in unison, "Your Majesty, why did you leave the palace at this time? Once Young Master Yang Ping is exposed, all plans will be ruined."
"Don't worry, Yang Ping won't be exposed. Even the imperial sister knows it's not me and Yang Ping, and I have my own reasons for leaving the palace now."
Liu Xie looked confident, and then said sternly: "Remember, I am Yang Ping now, not an emperor."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Liu Xie: "..."
————————
In the palace, Yang Ping, pretending to be Liu Xie, was competing with three guards in swordsmanship, and in less than ten rounds, he knocked down all three guards.
Bang, bang...
There was a burst of clapping, and then Princess Qin and Princess Wannian Liu Mu, all dressed in palace attire, were seen walking slowly towards the panting Yang Ping.
"Your Majesty, you have mastered this Humane Sword Technique to a certain extent." Liu Mu said with a smile on his face.
"Imperial sister?"
As soon as Yang Ping saw Liu Mu, he ran over happily, and he was running and jumping without any unnaturalness.
But when he walked in, Yang Ping seemed to have remembered something again, and said bluntly: "This is just the first of the six reincarnation sword techniques. There is nothing to be proud of."
Seeing this, Liu Mu didn't doubt anything. Instead, he sighed in his heart. He only thought that this was his brother's dissatisfaction with her husband, so he turned his anger on himself, so he smiled and said: "Your Majesty, humanity is the foundation of the Samsara Sword Art. Now you
Now that the human path is a small town, you can learn the other five paths."
"real?"
Yang Ping suddenly looked happy, he was not an ignorant person.
Although this set of reincarnation sword techniques was created by my sister Liu Mu and is not very famous, its power is so powerful that it can definitely be regarded as one of the top sword techniques in the world.
Now that his sister is willing to take the initiative to teach him, Yang Ping naturally wants to learn it. After all, this world is too dangerous. If you learn a martial art well, you will at least be safer.
