"You go back and prepare. When the decree is announced tomorrow, you will lead the German soldiers to maintain the situation. Although there may not be a big change, you must be prepared." Yan Shu said solemnly.
Li Gang cupped his fists and saluted: "I will go and get ready now, I will line up in front of the post office to wait for you tomorrow morning."
Yan Shu nodded and said: "Go."
Li Gang said goodbye to Fu Bi and Su Jin and strode out.
The room fell silent, and Su Jin felt his heart pounding. Judging from Yan Shu's behavior, it didn't look like he was going to read out the promotion decree to Tang Jie, but like he was going to seize someone's house.
Su Jin couldn't help but said: "Sir, it seems a little inappropriate to lead troops to declare the decree."
"You don't understand. Be careful and sail the boat for ten thousand years. I am not making a fuss out of a molehill. What happened tomorrow seems simple, but there may be changes. Although the imperial edict is in my hands, all the important officials in the imperial court already know the content.
But Prince Teng and Tang Jie should already know about it by now; Su Jin can guess what the court is thinking, so how can you hide it from Prince Teng and Tang Jie who are quite experienced? Maybe tomorrow will be an uneven day."
"Sir, are you saying that when the decree is announced, will there be any obstruction? Do they have the courage to openly resist the decree?"
"Humph, do you know why I stayed in the official post today and stayed behind closed doors? Didn't you see the heavy security outside when you came? The two hundred soldiers I brought here are here to guard you all night, don't you?
Do you think it’s strange?”
Su Jin was surprised: "Could it be...could they actually want to do harm to you?"
"It's not good for me. They don't have the courage. Their purpose is to come here for this imperial edict. I left Beijing and spent six days on the road. Since I left Bianliang, there were suspicious people following me along the way.
The night before last, someone in Jimingyi, a hundred and fifty miles away from here, secretly tried to steal the imperial edict. Fortunately, it was detected by the personal guards and the thieves could not succeed. You said that I came to announce the edict, but lost the edict on the way. This is not true.
What a big joke?" Yan Shu sneered, with a hint of chill in his words.
Su Jin had goosebumps all over his body. These people were so smart in their calculations. Stealing the imperial edict was a plan to kill two birds with one stone. It could not only prevent Yan Shu from delivering the edict, but also make Yan Shu feel guilty of dereliction of duty.
How could the political opponents in the court let Yan Shu pass this test? Yan Shu would be able to drink a pot of it when the time came. When Yan Shu was so anxious, how could he have time to meddle in Ying Tian's business?
"When I enter Yingtian Mansion, I enter their iron barrel array. How can I not care about it? This is their territory. Dogs will jump over the wall when they are anxious. I think they must have already thought of a countermeasure."
Su Jindao: "My lord is thoughtful and admirable. According to this statement, tomorrow will definitely not be a quiet day, so I summoned General Li to prevent any unexpected events. But I wonder what the common people can do for your lord tomorrow?"
Yan Shu smiled and said, "You must have been unhappy when I wrote back to reprimand you for the prisoners and two confessions you sent last time."
Su Jin said: "That's not true. I was just a little confused at the time, but I figured it out later."
"How did you figure it out?"
"I believe that your Excellency does not want to alert others. The evidence is not enough to prove anything. If Your Excellency had given me words of encouragement, I would definitely have taken action. In this way, it would be very easy for them to notice, and it would be bad."
"I do have this intention, but this is not the main reason. The most important reason is that the Holy One cares about blood ties. Prince Teng has read with the Emperor since he was a child, and they have a very deep relationship. The Holy One cannot do this."
Su Jin thought: Prince Teng already has evil intentions. It's really funny that the emperor still thinks about this. Such an emperor is really rare in history. In my impression, the fight for the throne is often more dangerous and cruel than the fight on the battlefield.
Ji Ji didn't care about flesh and blood ties at all. If Renzong thought so, he would be an anomaly.
Yan Shu stood up, walked to the door with his hands behind his back, looked at the dark sky above the patio and said softly: "Actually, the evidence you have is just a drop in the bucket compared to the evidence in the emperor's hands. Every move of Prince Teng is in the emperor's hands."
During the surveillance, the emperor knew everything about what he did to raise money to support private soldiers, collude with officials, exploit the people, use fame and reputation, etc., and he would have taken it if he wanted to."
Su Jin was speechless for a long time. It turned out that all of this was under the eyes of the emperor. Poor Prince Teng thought that all of this was perfect, and he was so busy searching for evidence that he was confused.
Su Jin suddenly felt sorry for Prince Teng. Prince Teng seemed to be walking naked in the dark, thinking that others could not see his ugly appearance under the cover of darkness. Little did he know that the emperor was holding the searchlight switch in his hand.
With a gentle press, Prince Teng's bare butt was immediately exposed to the world, but the emperor refused to press it and allowed Prince Teng to twist his hips and throw his legs.
While grieving for King Teng, Su Jin also felt deeply chilled. All this was beyond his understanding. Thinking about it carefully, Renzong was not a kind person. He was probably monitoring Zhao Zongdan not on a temporary basis, but because he had been monitoring Zhao Zongdan since he took office.
Zhao Zongdan was on guard; then the reason why he didn't move Zhao Zongdan was somewhat suspicious.
According to Yan Shu, the emperor was thinking of family ties and did not want to hurt Prince Teng or commit fratricide. However, Su Jin boldly speculated that the emperor was just waiting for the right time, and Zhao Zongdan was raising private soldiers to exploit him.
This is a fact for the people, but as the prince of the royal family, this crime is not enough to kill him. The time to completely eliminate this threat is to wait for him to rebel. If he confiscates his house and kills him for the crime of rebellion, he can be punished once and for all, and it can also block the world.
human mouth.
All the initiative is in the hands of the emperor. He can use means to force King Teng to jump over the wall at any time. Just like seizing this opportunity to transfer Tang Jie, once Tang Jie leaves, it will be equivalent to the dam that King Teng carefully built.
A gap will lead to more and more loopholes; Prince Teng will be busy plugging various loopholes, blowing out the lit candles one by one, and disappearing into the darkness. When he cannot cover up the loopholes perfectly,
, is the time to take risks.
Another reason why the emperor held back was most likely because of the sudden war in the northwest. Yuan Hao suddenly proclaimed himself emperor, which made Renzong temporarily give up the pressure on Prince Teng. The emperor did not want internal and external disasters to happen at the same time.
Unexpected situations would arise when dealing with them, and Zhao Zongdan had a good life for three years.
Renzong chose to exert pressure at this time. It must be that when the war situation in the northwest has stabilized and there is no danger of foreign aggression, Anni must be carried out.
Su Jin analyzed it and broke into a cold sweat. If his guess was true, people's minds were too unpredictable, so he suddenly asked inexplicably: "Sir, is the war in the northwest coming to an end?"
Yan Shu turned to look at Su Jin and asked doubtfully: "Why are you suddenly concerned about the war situation in the northwest?"
Su Jin smiled awkwardly and said, "I'm just asking casually. If it's a secret, I won't tell you."
Yan Shu smiled and said: "You really have a lot of control, but this is not a secret. The war in the northwest is still early to end. It's just that Han and Fan were stationed in the northwest. After changing their strategies, they won several beautiful battles. Now Yuan Hao
The army no longer dares to invade. The two sides are facing each other at the front line, but they are in peace for the time being."
Su Jin felt that his judgment was already accurate, so he smiled reluctantly and stopped talking.
Yan Shu saw the strange expression on Su Jin's face and walked to Su Jin's side and said, "You are too smart. People who are too smart often bring about unintentional disasters. I will give you a piece of advice. You only need to understand some things in your heart and don't say them out loud."
, this will be good for you in the future."
Su Jin was noncommittal and thought to himself: This dynasty is really boring. There are scheming and traps everywhere. The more in-depth I understand, the stronger the chill in my heart becomes. These old guys can actually live peacefully in the court for decades.
Come down, no matter how strong your heart is, everyone is an old fox.
Yan Shu patted Su Jin on the shoulder and sighed: "This time I come to Yingtian, there is an important matter for you."
Su Jin was surprised and said: "About me? Is it Biyun's engagement..."
Yan Shu laughed dumbly and said: "You are too impatient. How can I regret what I promised you? But it is not what you think about, but about the food raising strategy you proposed."
Su Jin said: "That is a matter for the court and your lord, I can't do it."
Yan Shu said: "I'm afraid it's too late to get out now. This matter has been reported to the Holy One. The Holy One is very commendable and full of praise for you. I don't want to take away your merits. I came here for another purpose this time."
I want to take you to the capital to meet the Holy Spirit. If the Emperor has something to say, he will ask you face to face. Boy, your chance has come."
Su Jin said in astonishment: "Mian Sheng?"
Yan Shu twisted his beard and smiled without saying a word. Fu Bi said with a smile, "Congratulations, little brother Su. The Holy One has appointed you to see you. You are quite honorable."
Su Jin's heart was beating wildly. This was unexpected. Zhao Zhen wanted to see him, which seemed like a happy event to others. But just now he figured out the emperor's intentions regarding Zhao Zongdan. Su Jin's feelings towards Renzong
The impression was so bad that I couldn’t help but hesitate.dd
